Song Liyun was in a panic. Although she was not worried about spending the night alone in the mountains, her family would definitely be anxious to death if she did not come home all night.
Seeing that Heijin was disobedient, she simply ignored him, turned around and walked down the mountain.
She walked quickly and ran up two hills. If she didn't move faster, it would be dark by the river.
At this moment, Heijin, who had already crawled into the forest, suddenly screamed "Wow wow".
Song Liyun stood still and lived with Heijin for more than half a year. Although he couldn't communicate verbally, he could still understand some basic emotional changes.
This is what Heijin discovered that was unusual and made him a little scared.
Song Liyun stopped walking and ran up the mountain on both hands and feet, shouting as he ran: "Black Gold, Black Gold! What happened?"
She was shouting, and Heijin was responding.
As if hearing Song Liyun's voice, Heijin's cry lost fear and he quickly came over to join them.
As soon as the two met, Heijin grabbed Song Liyun's clothes and led her into the woods.
"Don't be anxious, take your time!"
Song Liyun comforted the trembling Hei Jin. He had already taken out the knife and moved towards the direction where Hei Jin came from.
A hundred meters away from the two people, there was a person lying down.
There was a cowhide rope around this man's neck, and there were bloody marks all around.
Next to him, a bag of dried mushrooms was scattered everywhere.
This...where did this mountain collector come from? Why is he lying dead or alive?
Song Liyun was about to step forward to check, but out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a light flashing not far away.
At this time, the setting sun was shining from behind her, and the light was clearly visible as a scimitar being thrown into the grass.
At this time, Heijin completely lost the majesty of the ferocious beast he once was, and was like a child hiding next to Song Liyun, trembling.
It's not that Heijin has never seen people, let alone dead people. What he's afraid of is the knife.
It's that scimitar.
Song Liyun did not step forward, but took out a long wooden stick and stabbed the corpse a few times. When he saw that it didn't move, he approached it.
The man is indeed dead. It seems that he stepped on the noose laid by the hunter and had an accident.
The man cut the rope with a knife, but was unable to untie the knot and was strangled until he died of suffocation.
The body can still be preserved in this barren mountain, so it probably didn't take long for him to die.
Song Liyun did not rush forward to pick up the clothes on her body, but said to the frightened Hei Jin: "Hei Jin, go up the tree and call the police if you see anything approaching!"
It was at this moment that Kurogane seemed to realize that he could climb trees. He ran up to the treetops in twos and twos and looked down at the surrounding activities.
With Heijin as a high-altitude sentinel, Song Liyun came over and used a wooden stick to pick up the bag from the man's waist.
Seeing the special-shaped scimitar, she already believed that this man was no ordinary hunter, but in addition to a few pieces of silver and more than a dozen copper coins, there was only some tobacco leaves in the bag.
Shaking the bag upside down again, there was nothing else. Song Liyun frowned: No, flints and water bottles are essential items for going out at any time.
The person who had the accident now has neither of these two things. It can only mean that his accommodation is not far from here.
When he thought of this, Song Liyun quickly stood up and looked for traces around him.
Sure enough, seven or eight meters away from the body was an undiscovered path.
The road was hidden in the lush weeds. If it hadn't been for someone who had just walked by, Song Liyun would not have noticed the stepped stems and leaves.
As I followed the path and walked deeper, there were more and more traces of human activities, and there were even some new stubbles left by felled trees.
The sun has set and the cool mountain breeze is blowing, but Song Liyun is sweating on his forehead.
She retreated to the road where the body was found, waved to Heijin above her head, and whispered to him to come down: "Heijin, go home and call someone, I'll wait here."
She vaguely felt that these people hiding near Ruijin Town were related to the missing Hong Jingtian.
It's getting dark now, so those who were out picking mushrooms should go back. If those people come out to search and find the bodies, they might be moved away.
In this way, you lose an opportunity to eliminate hidden dangers. You must stay here and wait for Hong Jingtian to appear.
But Song Liyun was not sure whether there were only two or three people on the other side. If there were many people, it would be too risky for her skill.
If you can't catch them all, alerting them will only lead to future troubles. Then you have to find helpers.
The black gold goes down the mountain quickly and won't attract attention, so just let it go.
After receiving the order, Heijin didn't know whether it was dangerous for Song Liyun to be left alone, so he quickly jumped between the branches.
Song Liyun did not dare to stay near the corpse.
Find a bush with lush leaves, take out a moisture-proof cloth from the space and wrap it tightly so that not even a hair is exposed.
Then she lay down behind the rock so that she would not be exposed unless someone stepped on her.
But Hei Jin swung the branches all the way to the river. He was so impatient that even a creature that climbs trees all the year round, he failed and fell off the tree several times.
Fortunately, when he was still a hill away from the river, Heijin saw figures moving and shouts: "Miss Song!" "Sister Song!"
"Song Liyun!"
Heijin immediately became energetic and chased after the sound.
The visitors are Han Ming, Zhao Tingduo, and Abu.
It's the winter wheat harvest season now, and the Song family didn't plant wheat unless they arrived in Suijin Town in winter.
Han Ming went out in the morning and had been helping others harvest wheat with Song Zhenping. It wasn't until he came back in the afternoon that he realized Song Liyun was not at home.
Zhao Tingduo and the others did not get up until the afternoon, and they did not see Song Liyun in Baolinju either.
By the evening, Song Zhenping had returned home, but Song Liyun hadn't come back yet.
Everyone was so anxious that they first went to the town to inquire, but they all said that no one had entered the town.
The Song family's search for Song Liyun soon spread in the town, and Luo Baihu came to inquire in person.
Xiaoan said that Heijin didn't go home either, so everyone wondered if he was still going up the mountain.
To be on the safe side, Xue Zhuang led a search in the town and at the guard station to look for ditches and roads around the town.
Han Ming, Zhao Tingduo, and Abu went up the mountain in the dark.
At the riverside, they saw the cloth strips tied to the branches and knew that Song Liyun had been there.
But Song Liyun also came here in the morning, and the three of them were not sure when they tied it.
But there are so many mountains here that we can’t just run around like a headless fly.
The three of them were discussing which way to go when they saw Heijin stumbling out of the woods.
When Han Ming saw Hei Jin, he was immediately overjoyed: "Hei Daxian, do you know where the girl is?"
Hei Jin was a little embarrassed at this time, shouting "Ao Ao", jumping on his feet and pointing towards the mountain.
Zhao Tingduo's eyes brightened: "You mean the person is in the mountains?"
Heijin nodded and quickly ran to the side of the mountain. When the three of them saw him, they quickly followed.
Although Song Liyun had already experienced life and death, he was lying quietly in the mountain forest that was said to be silent but was actually disturbed by many people.
And there was a corpse next to it, which felt very bad.
