"Yes, I am." I'm upright and upright. There's nothing I don't dare to admit.
She looked troubled." It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I don't know the details. I only know that…Nine Dragon Mountain is off-limits.”
"Why?"
"I don't know." The girl shook her head and looked at me carefully." I've told you everything I know. Can you let me go now?"”
I nodded.
She didn't even care about the unfinished rice in her bowl and ran away immediately, as if she was afraid that I would eat her.
"Tang Tang?" I turned around and called out to Tang Tang," What should we do? Are we still going to carry out this project?”
"Of course we have to do it. Is this something we can reject just because we want to?”There was a hint of worry in her expression.
Because of this episode, we didn't have dinner and went back to the dormitory.
After returning to the dormitory, the two students were eating takeout in the dormitory. They were originally chatting and laughing, but when they saw us, they immediately stopped chatting and laughing. They hurriedly finished the takeout in their bowls and went to bed.
Tang Tang and I are quite awkward.
Fortunately, each of them had their own things to do, so they did not interfere with each other.
Tang Tang and I spent the night studying the geography of Nine Dragon Mountain in the dormitory. We plan to go up the mountain to investigate in person tomorrow morning.
However…
Although it was normal for accidents to happen during such an expedition, they had never seen a team without a leading teacher.
I hope everything goes well tomorrow.
I put my hands together and placed them in front of my chest. I prayed a few words like they did with their religious beliefs. Then, I closed my eyes and fell asleep in this unfamiliar school dormitory.
I slept very early. Unexpectedly, I was still quite sleepy the next day. When Tang Tang woke me up, I didn't want to get up.
"Alright, Su Su, don't laze in bed. Have you forgotten that we have to get up early to go to the mountains today?”
"Ah!" I sat up on the bed and was stunned for a while. When I thought of today's mission, I completely woke up.
After washing up, Tang Tang and I had breakfast and went to the laboratory building.
After finding a few pieces of usable equipment, we were about to leave when we heard a knock on the laboratory door. I turned around and saw that it was the teacher who had received us that day.
Her expression was still ugly, but her tone was more or less gentle."Are you going to the mountain for an inspection today? Why didn't you discuss it with Teacher?"
She waved at me stiffly." Come, help the teacher take out the geological detector.”
"Oh, okay."
Although I found it strange that my teacher had changed his attitude, it was still better to have my teacher around.
I obediently handed the geological detector over. Then, I saw that there was a female student following behind the teacher.
"Hello, I am in charge of this project with you. My name is Liu Lingcai.”She said with a smile on her face, showing no signs of reluctance.
"Yes."
After getting to know Teacher Liu Lingcai, we got on the bus to Nine Dragon Mountain and set off.
The car swayed all the way and the weather was gloomy and uncomfortable. I endured it all the way until I reached the place. When I landed on my feet, I bent down and vomited.
"Su Su, are you okay?"
"With this physique, you still want to do a geological survey. It's better to go back and be a rich young lady.”The teacher held the geological detector and said mockingly.
"Teacher, I'm fine. I'm just a little carsick.”I took the water from Tang Tang and rinsed my mouth." I'm fine. Let's go."”
"It better be okay."
The car sent us halfway up the mountain. We had to walk the rest of the way ourselves.
"Let's go to the mountain on the other side.”the teacher instructed.
The mountain was isolated, and there were few trees. Even in the midsummer season, it was bare.
It was indeed a good place to survey.
We climbed over the mountains and reached the top of the mountain. It was already noon and everyone was sweating profusely.
Just as I was about to slack off, the teacher instructed us to mark the location with chalk.
Helpless, I could only squat down and draw marks one by one.
Just as I was drawing the mark, I suddenly heard Liu Lingcai's cry.
She was still holding the geological detector in her hand. She looked at the sky with fear in her eyes." Earth, earthquake clouds…Teacher, can we go back? I don't want to do this project anymore. We'll die!"”
"Nonsense!" The teacher reprimanded her sternly," This is just a natural weather phenomenon. Why are you blindly following the comments on the Internet? Do you not want your credits for this semester?”
"No." She lowered her head in embarrassment.
Looking at the layers of clouds that filled the sky, I suddenly thought of the dream that night. It was not that I was superstitious, but after experiencing the ghost marriage and zombies, I had no choice but to believe it.
I pursed my lips and wanted to speak up for Liu Lingcai. I wanted to ask the teacher to agree to our field investigation another day.
In the end, Tang Tang pulled my hand and shook her head at me.
"Since it's not, then do a good survey for me. If anything goes wrong, can you bear the responsibility?”The teacher glanced at the three of us and continued with his work.
I could only swallow the words that I didn't say.
After marking, I took the metal detector from Liu Lingcai and walked towards the first marked place, but…
Just as I scanned with the metal detector, I heard a rustling sound coming from the bushes beside me.
Immediately after, a streak of black entered my line of sight.
Before I could resist and dodge, my arm was grabbed ruthlessly, and several deep bloody marks were visible.
I looked at the black shadow. It was actually a nimble black cat.
After being caught by the black cat, I could only accept my fate and comfort the worried Tang Tang. I thought to myself,'I still have to get a rabies vaccine when I go back. How troublesome.'
"What are you two doing?" When Teacher Li saw Tang Tang and I together, she walked towards us aggressively.
As soon as he saw the metal detector on the ground, he started scolding me without saying anything."What are you doing? We didn't have much experimental equipment to begin with. If you break it again, will we still continue the experiment?”
"Teacher, no, there was a cat just now…" Tang Tang tried to explain for me.
"What cat? Is the cat more important than the experiment?”
"Teacher!" I interrupted Teacher Li's incessant scolding and whispered,"I'll continue probing."
At this moment, the metal detector I picked up beeped. This meant that there was very likely heavy metal under our feet.
I gulped and looked at Tang Tang. We saw shock in each other's eyes.
Because this mountain has been explored and developed several times, logically speaking, there shouldn't be any heavy metals. I used the metal detector to detect it only to eliminate the possibility of heavy metals.
But now…
What was down there?
