A total of two vehicles came outside the airport. One was used to load luggage. Lin Banxia and the three of them sat on the other. In the car, Li Ye was talking with the man in Russian, and the atmosphere was okay. Song Qingluo stared at the phone and seemed to be talking to someone. Only Lin Banxia had nothing to do. He yawned and asked to leave How far is there.
"That place is very remote, and we can only pass it tomorrow." Li Ye answered him, "It takes at least eight hours to drive from the city, and I lived here in the evening. This is not like China. It is not safe. You should not run around at night. . "
Lin Banxia said well.
Song Qingluo asked: "There is still no news over Li Su's side?"
Li Ye was silent for a while before spitting out two words: "No."
Song Qingluo asked no more.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a bed and breakfast in the middle of a town. Lin Banxia also saw the street view of Russia along the way. The time in this country seems to be frozen in a certain period of glory in the past. Most of the buildings are full of old style. The streets are very clean and there are not many pedestrians on the road. It was dark now, Li Ye put away his luggage and went to the balcony, silently looking at the lights on the street, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin Banxia sat in the house looking at his back, stood up and walked to his side, took a cigarette out of his pocket and handed it over: "Did you smoke?"
Li Ye glanced at him, took the cigarette and thanked him.
"How long hasn't it been since?" Lin Banxia said, but he was very curious about the experiences of Li Su and Li Ye, and felt there were many stories about them.
"Twelve years." Li Ye said, "I haven't come back after I left."
Lin Banxia said: "Oh, I came out to work and never returned home." He smiled. "My parents went early and didn't think much about their hometown."
Li Ye was silent for a moment and said, "What a coincidence? Me too."
Lin Banxia was also surprised.
"It's chaos here, my parents were killed, and the murderer was not found." Li Ye looked calm as if telling someone else's story, "I became an orphan at the age of six, without relatives, and lived on the neighbor's relief and stealing . "
Lin Banxia said with a smile: "I'm better than you, at least relatives are willing to give a meal."
Li Ye didn't answer any more, he finished smoking the cigarette, turned around and entered the house, said the last sentence tonight before entering the house, he said: "If you are better than me, you should not stand it's here."
Lin Banxia was dumb, and for a moment he found himself unable to refute. To some extent, his luck seems to be no better than Li Ye. But at least for now, it looks much better than he expected. Lin Banxia has always been a person who is easily satisfied, so he laughed instead, saying: "I think it's good now."
Spring in Russia always comes that late. Even if it is May, the cold air is everywhere.
There was no one on the street in the early morning, Lin Banxia got up early, and Song Qingluo and they simply had a breakfast. Song Qingluo didn't know where to get some rich ice cream, and handed it to Lin Banxia. Lin Banxia took it by surprise, licking with pleasure.
"The quality of dairy products and meat products are very good here." Song Qingluo.
"It's delicious." Lin Banxia asked Li Ye, "Do you want it?"
Li Ye shook his head, not interested in it. Jelena and Sergey also smiled and refused, looking at their expressions, apparently felt that Lin Banxia and Song Qingluo were not like to come to do things, but rather came to travel, but this made the atmosphere in the team relaxed a little.
After eating the ice cream, Lin Banxia sat contently in the car to the destination.
This huge country has a population of only 140 million, and it is truly sparsely populated. This also means that in the suburbs far from the urban area, no one can be seen tens of kilometers apart.
The scenery outside the car window became more and more desolate, and eventually all the buildings were no longer visible. The surrounding wilderness was an endless wilderness, and even occasionally we saw hare jumping by the road.
The atmosphere in the car was quiet, and everyone did not want to talk.
After an eight-hour long journey, they finally reached their destination, where they had been blocked by the police. As soon as they got out of the car, people wearing police uniforms approached the reception, but they only spoke Russian, and Lin Banxia I don't understand.
He was okay, and simply observed the surroundings.
This seems to be the entrance to a village. A blocked path spreads deep into the bushes, still full of desolate smell. If you do n’t see a sign that does n’t understand the name standing next to it, no one will want to go inside. go. The police set up a sentry post and stopped this section of road, but it seems that the effect is very poor, because the protection line can only pull a distance, and it is impossible to completely block the entire area.
Li Ye talked with the person in charge for about ten minutes, and then came back, telling them to go in the afternoon, but the police suggested that it is best to go in again tomorrow morning, because I do n’t know what ’s going on inside. If it ’s the evening, the risk factor It may be high.
Song Qingluo looked at Li Ye and said, "What do you think?"
Li Ye said: "I will go in soon, you can prepare again."
Song Qingluo said: "How many recorders have they assigned to you?"
"Just me." Li Ye said. "It is safer to let the recorder follow you."
Song Qingluo pondered for a moment: "Then go in now, and the situation may not be improved until tomorrow. Go in early, maybe there will be a turnaround."
Li Ye said yes.
Then, several people began to pack up their bags. Lin Banxia was surprised when she saw the gun in Li Ye's bag. Li Ye explained that it is legal to hold guns in this country, and that they entered this area with some large creatures such as bears and wild boars. In order to protect their own safety, these things must be brought. However, Lin Banxia did not practice guns, so he was only equipped with cold weapons.
Lin Banxia nodded, no objection.
After packing their bags, they also saw the recorder who was allocated to them. There were three people in total, two were Sergey and Elena who picked them up yesterday, and another young man named Alexei , His Chinese is not bad, it should be specially selected, with beautiful short red hair, is a passionate Russian boy. When they saw Lin Banxia, they greeted them happily and tried to talk with them in Chinese, saying that they were welcome to come to beautiful Russia.
Then, after confirming that all the equipment can be used normally, Song Qingluo pulled out the black and white dice from his pocket and motioned Li Ye with his eyes.
Li Ye said something to Elena and Sergey. It should be yours and the like. The two picked up the dice in turn and rolled out their numbers. Then came Alexei, Li Ye and Song Qingluo. When Lin Banxia arrived, Song Qingluo did not let him dice as before, but put the dice back in his pocket.
"Don't you need it?" Alexei stopped the recorded hand and asked with some surprise.
"He doesn't have to." Song Qingluo said, without explaining why.
Alexei stopped talking, but after seeing that Irina and Sergei were not curious, they stopped quietly and recorded the data belonging to several people in his own notebook silently. In fact, this time he could not get his turn. Fortunately, his Chinese is good. In addition, the two monitors who came this time are all Chinese, so he squeezed another senior and successfully signed. Agreement. Alexei naturally knows that this trip is very dangerous, otherwise it will not cost more than 1 million. But what about danger, he needs the money so much ...
After finishing the record, the six people drove two cars. They passed the blockade and went down the path towards the village.
Lin Banxia held a map in his hand and roughly marked all the places of human activity in this area. The area involved was very small, and it can be seen that not many people settled in this area. This is also a good thing. After all, it seems that the residents living in it are not optimistic.
In the desolate plains, there are no tall plants, and the ling wind blows sand and dust on people's cheeks. Song Qingluo sat in the car, staring at the communication device in his hand, and it was not surprising to find that they had traveled a distance of almost three or four kilometers, and the signal on the mobile phone was almost completely gone.
"How long have you been here?" Alexei was a clever young man, and at a glance, he saw that Song Qingluo and Li Ye were not good people in this team, so they gathered around Lin Banxia and talked curiously. .
Lin Banxia said: "Russia who arrived yesterday afternoon."
Alexei said: "Oh, so quickly, do you know that the last team who entered here has lost contact?"
Lin Banxia said, "I know, there are my friends in it."
Alexey surprised: "Is there your friend in there? Is he ... alright? But ... are you really not afraid at all?"
Lin Banxia was a bit strange: "Are you afraid? Then why did you take this job?"
Alexei smiled: "It's not high wages yet."
Lin Banxia thought that you really resembled me.
Unlike the enthusiastic Alexei, the other two Russians may be silent because they do not understand Chinese. Only when necessary will they talk to Li Ye. From the expressions of the two, they obviously are Not optimistic about this trip, the sorrow between the eyebrows will almost turn into substance.
It took about ten more minutes to drive forward, and there were some changes in the surrounding desolate landforms. Some tall, lush pine and cypress trees appeared on the surface. They became denser and denser, and eventually formed a small jungle. I saw some low-rise buildings and wanted to come and cross here again, and I would be able to reach the village.
The next road was unable to drive, so they had to park their car nearby, walk through the woods, and walk in the woods. Sergey suddenly said something to Li Ye. Li Ye turned his head and translated. : "Sergey found bear feces on the ground, there may be large wild animals nearby, please be careful."
Everyone heard it, and they all got together.
About ten minutes later, the nervous group successfully walked through the jungle and reached the village safely. But even so, everyone's heart was not able to let go, but more nervous. The village is quiet and quiet, unlike some people. The door of every house is wide open, but the villagers who should have lived here have disappeared.
Lin Banxia quickly inspected several rooms and determined that the room was empty. He said, "The people are gone."
"Look for any other clues." Song Qingluo quickly gave the plan, "The monitor and the recorder are in groups of two, don't separate."
Although Lin Banxia was working for the second time, he was also a real monitor, so he and Alexei were separated. He had a good impression of Alexei, so there was no objection.
The village is not big. Most of the houses are made of wood. At first glance, they are very dilapidated. When you walk into the house, you will find a variety of beautiful wood ornaments in the house. Exotic style. Lin Banxia and Alexei went into the nearest room, and they inspected the room for a while but found nothing.
"You said where did all of them go?" Alexei said, "Isn't there any one, could it be attacked by some large wild animals?"
Lin Banxia said: "What wild animals can shield the electronic signal?"
Alexe said, "Yes too." He was not keen on searching for such things. He rummaged around casually, and found a soft bench lazily to sit down, turned over the black leather notebook to record, look With relish, I don't know what to write.
Lin Banxia was still worried about the whereabouts of Li Su, and naturally wanted to gather clues as soon as possible, but he didn't see anything when he turned around in the room, so he wanted to go outside and look again, beckoning Alexei together.
Alexei stood up and said, "Where are you going? There might be a bear near here."
Lin Banxia joked: "Don't you often keep bears as pets?"
"It won't work now." Alexei said frankly, "It is illegal to raise bears now."
Lin Banxia: "... So you were really supported before?"
Alexei: "Yes."
Lin Banxia: "..." Okay, you are great.
After coming out of the house, Lin Banxia and Alexei went to the other houses next to them, and they all found nothing. Each of these rooms was very neat and there was no sign of violent intrusion, as if they were living in The villagers here turned to dust overnight and were blown away by the wind. However, Lin Banxia noticed that all the electrical equipment in the village was still running, and even when Alexei entered a room, he was startled by the sound from the open TV, and he patted the chest. : "Why is this TV on?"
Lin Banxia said: "It may not be closed when I leave?"
Alexie said: "Oh, then he'd better not come back, otherwise the electricity bill will be enough for him to cry."
Lin Banxia thought, little brother, you are really a bit humorous.
Other than that, they had nothing else to gain. Lin Banxia was a little disappointed, but was helpless. After he went to meet Song Qingluo and Li Ye, they learned that several others had not found any useful information.
"Then let's take a rest today." Song Qing said, "It's already dark. It's not safe to continue the investigation."
Li Ye didn't speak, smoking a cigarette in his mouth, smoking silently.
Song Qingluo ignored him and found a house with several bedrooms in the village, divided each bedroom, and said some things to pay attention to at night.
Li Ye said: "No need to give me points, I can't sleep."
"Are you going to keep looking at night?" Song Qingluo said.
"He is waiting for me." Li Ye said calmly, not as if he was arguing with Song Qingluo, but the tone of voice was beyond doubt, making people unable to say words of consolation.
"Okay." Song Qingluo didn't try to persuade Li Ye any more, he said coldly, "I hope that when Li Su knows your decision, you won't regret it."
Li Ye's green eyes gave Song Qingluo a deep look: "I will come back at dawn."
Song Qingluo: "I hope so."
After Li Ye finished speaking, she pushed open the door of the room and her figure was hidden in the dark night.
"Let's rest." Song Qingluo didn't struggle with Li Ye as much as if he had become accustomed to it. He turned to the house and rested, leaving Lin Banxia to stare at the rest of the people.
When Li Ye left, there was no translation. Lin Banxia had to say good night to Elena Sergey in crappy English. Fortunately, Alexei could help Lin Banxia communicate, making the situation less embarrassing.
It was late at night, and there was a deep twilight outside the window, but Alexei was sleepless. He lay in bed for a while, unable to sleep tossing and turning, and finally sat up, and returned to the living room.
The living room is not large, and there are scattered crafts everywhere. This seems to be a common problem in this village, no matter who is full of houses.
Alexei casually grabbed a few glances, but didn't see any clues, and threw it aside. There was no signal on the phone at this time, he was really bored, found the remote control placed on the sofa, and turned on the TV that was turned off during the day.
The TV screen flickered a few times, and a picture jumped out. Alexei sat on the sofa and watched it for a while. Looking at the people who came and went on the screen, the sitcom was really boring. He picked up the remote control and wanted to change a few stations. Who knows if you press another channel, the TV is full of snowflakes, and only this channel is still playing late night programs.
Ah, it's really boring, Alexei thought, is anyone really watching such a show? Why hasn't the program group closed? But there is really no choice but to continue to look bored.
Spring night, it should be noisy, bugs, frogs, there are always such sounds in nature, but at this time in the wilderness, the silence seems to be pressed by the mute button, except for the noise in the house. In TV series, you can't hear anything.
Alexey, watching the TV series, felt a little uneasy. This kind of uneasiness came very suddenly, as if a sensitive intuition had found something strange before reason. He glanced at the TV show, or the boring melodrama, which happened when his father was arguing with the rebellious daughter. There was nothing wrong with the picture in front of him, but Alexei was unexpectedly uncomfortable. He didn't know why he was like this. He just hurriedly pressed the shutdown button to restore the TV screen to darkness.
The TV disappeared, and there was a sudden silence in the house.
Although Alexei still did not sleep, he decided to go to bed and lie down. He stood up and hurried towards the bedroom. When he passed the dining room, he accidentally saw the family portrait on the TV. There are a total of five people in the family portrait, all showing a bright smile, which should have been a warm photo. However, when he saw the face of the family portrait clearly, Alexei seemed to have been given a pot of ice water in the head-everyone in this family portrait knew him, it was in the sitcom played on TV just now Actors. Goose bumps almost all over the body in a flash, and Alexei wouldn't be so stupid that he happened to encounter the show they performed.
He licked his lips heavily, rushed into the next bedroom, and woke up the sleepy Lin Banxia.
Lin Banxia opened his eyes blankly and saw Alexei's pale face. He immediately realized what had happened and said, "What happened?"
"I seem to have found a villager." Alexei said, "Are you ... going to see it?"
The answer to this question does not seem to be answered at all. Lin Banxia immediately followed Alexei to the living room, but when the two of them turned on the TV, the program inside disappeared, leaving only endless white snowflakes.
"I really saw it, not an illusion--" Alexei was a little anxious, afraid that Lin Banxia felt wrong.
Lin Banxia patted his shoulder and said, "I believe in you."
"So what should I do now?" Alexey said, "how could they appear on TV?"
Lin Banxia was naturally unable to answer. He thought about it, walked to the TV set, and checked it carefully. It didn't look good, but at first glance he saw some clues. I saw a black liquid spilled into the cracks of this old TV. At first glance it looked like asphalt used for sealing, but if you poke lightly with a hard object, you will find that it is soft.
"What is this?" Alexei swallowed. "Is this ... a part of the TV?"
Lin Banxia felt that this was obviously not a part of the TV. He even had a guess about this liquid. He glanced at Alexei and whispered: "You go and take Song Qingluo-just be with me Cried the watcher. "
Alexei said yes, turned and ran to the bedroom to find someone.
Lin Banxia went to his luggage and found a handy tool, and then returned to the TV set, carefully dismantling this old TV set a little bit. Song Qingluo came quickly, and when he arrived, Lin Banxia just removed the shell to reveal the contents.
Lin Banxia's expression solidified for a moment when the TV shell was disassembled. He saw the electronic accessories inside and a black muddy liquid attached to the accessories.
"What is this?" Lin Banxia asked softly, as if to ask Song Qingluo, but also to ask himself.
Song Qingluo looked down at the black liquid inside, picked up a tool, and gently touched the surface of the liquid.
An incomprehensible scene happened, and the black liquid began to scream—yes, scream. Above the liquid, several mouths with black holes like humans were formed, and a scream like the night owl was made. There were men and women in the cry. Alexei was almost trembling as he heard the sound, his eyes widened, he stepped back abruptly and almost fell to the ground. After he calmed down, he looked at Song Qingluo and Lin Banxia, but found that the two monitors from afar did not show any fluctuations in their faces.
Even the man named Lin Banxia, who poke the liquid with a tool lightly, was stunned: "Wouldn't this be ..."
Song Qingluo said: "It should be."
Lin Banxia was silent.
He still remembers that in the video sent by Li Ye, the woman who suddenly melted, she seemed to become a black liquid, but it did not remain on the ground, but was completely integrated into the ground. Regarding the TV program and family portrait that Alexei saw just now, are these things in front of me ... Lin Banxia thought of this and slightly pursed his lips: "Then ... what should I do with it?" He wanted to talk about people However, this form of objects in front of us is beyond the scope of human beings.
However, before Song Qingluo gave an answer, this black muddy thing began to slide down the TV continuously, fell on the ground, and then merged into the ground through the gap in the floor. This process happened very quickly, but within a few breaths, they had disappeared without a trace.
The house was quiet, Lin Banxia froze in place, until Song Qingluo said softly, "Sleep first."
Lin Banxia said: "What about this TV?"
Song Qingluo said: "Just put it there, don't look at it." He glanced at Alexei.
Alexey understood Song Qingluo's words and nodded quickly to applaud.
So the three went back to their rooms, Lin Banxia was on the bed, but Alexei turned over and over, and didn't sleep much all night. Until the next day, he hung up from the bed with two purple eyes.
Others have already started to eat, and Li Ye, who went out last night, also returned safely. They did not touch the water and food in the surveyed area, but chose to eat their own dry food.
Lin Banxia saw Alexei woke up and greeted him with a smile. There was no trace of haze on his face, as if everything that happened last night was Alexei's illusion.
Alexei smiled a little reluctantly, he knew that the monitors were all a group of freaks, and there were always anomalies in order to be worthy of the name. When he first saw Lin Banxia, he was still muttering, how did this handsome, gentle temperament young man become a monitor, and now he has answers to his doubts, and sure enough, there is no one monitor, it is normal people.
Alexei ate something casually and heard Li Ye talk about the information he got last night.
Li Ye went out and roughly figured out the surrounding environment. What differed from the map was that there was a swamp unmarked in the southeast of the village.
Such things as swamps are actually very common on the Western Siberian plains. The middle age is cold here, and the frozen soil layer is deep. Although there is little rain, if there is precipitation, it is difficult for the current to enter the deep layer through the solid frozen soil, so the swamp is everywhere.
According to the official map, there is no swamp landform next to the village, so that the swamp's existence becomes abnormal.
"It's too late, I didn't go into the swamp to take a closer look." Li Ye said, "but there are bears in the vicinity, try to be more careful."
Song Qingluo simply said what happened last night and waited for Li Ye to continue. He knew that if nothing was found, Li Ye would not return.
"We have to go through that swamp." As expected, Li Ye said amazingly, "I was in front of the swamp and found the clue of the previous team."
Lin Banxia said: "What is it?"
Li Ye took out something from his backpack and put it in front of everyone-it was actually a human skull. I do n’t know what ate the skin and flesh, leaving only the bones. The eyes of the black hole stared at the five people in front, and the breath of silence spread among the people.
Sergey, who does not speak Chinese, whispered something, Li Ye gave him a blank expression, and he immediately sighed.
Lin Banxia also grabbed the compressed biscuits in his hand and took a bite, politely saying, "Can you let us finish the meal before you take this out."
Li Ye said, "Okay." He actually took it back.
It's a pity that even if it was withdrawn, no one wanted to eat except Lin Banxia. Song Qingluo supported his chin and said to Li Ye whether he could consider the acceptance level of the masses.
Li Ye looked away, but the expression was obviously very dissatisfied. Even Lin Banxia seemed to be able to read the sentence in his heart: Is this?
