I felt dizzy.

Why is it my name today?

Xiaoyan...is she finally going to take me with her?

I trembled and stole a glance at Xiaoyan.

The candlelight was too dim and I couldn't see anything clearly.

I can only see her lips, and nothing further up.

Her lips... seemed a little too bright red.

On both sides of the lips, I could vaguely see two long fangs.

Bloodthirsty fangs.

Two drops of bright red liquid dripped from the tips of her teeth and fell on the back of her hand, splashing a bright red color.

Without saying anything, I threw down the diary, slammed the door and ran out.

Gao Zhijie is right, MD there really are vampires in this world, and this vampire is my girlfriend. For God’s sake, have you watched too many Western thrillers or something!? You have to have an unresolved love affair between humans and ghosts to be satisfied.

?

I ran out as fast as I could.

It's just that this village is very small, with only a few families. Within a few minutes of running, a dense and gloomy forest appeared in front of me.

If you keep running like this, will you end up near that shabby house?

I tried hard to recall Gao Zhijie's words.

Even if you get close to that room, it doesn't matter as long as you don't answer the madman's question.

At least madmen are still human beings...

I didn't waste any more time hesitating and plunged into the dark woods.

It was dark and cold in the woods, the wind was howling, and it was not comfortable at all.

Slender and slender tree trunks stood straight on both sides of the path, with not even a leaf on the branches. The moonlight cast down from the densely packed bare branches, leaving behind a series of cold light beams like swords.

The weeds and stones on the ground kept rubbing against my trousers, and from time to time I would trip over a few small pits. But it was okay, although my body was in tatters, and my ankles were burning.

It hurts, but at least I can still run.

I didn't dare to look back, I just stumbled and ran forward.

Has she finally caught up?

What would happen if she wrote her name but didn't erase it?

If I can live past twelve o'clock, maybe I won't have to die, once and for all, and never have to die again...

But I know without looking at my phone that it's still early before twelve o'clock.

The dinner we just had hasn’t been digested yet, so how could it be so late?

The cold wind kept pouring into my ears.

I ran so hard that my lungs almost exploded, but I didn't even see the shadow of that shabby house.

It was eerily quiet in this small forest.

No, if you calm down and listen, it's still very noisy here.

Several birds with unknown names kept chirping above my head, and occasionally there was the sound of some bat-like animals flapping their wings. The cold wind blew the dry branches.

, making rustling sounds, and the snapping of broken branches, combined with the sound of my hollow footsteps, made the atmosphere extremely weird.

Beside me, an unknown animal scurried past. I only saw a black shadow, and then it disappeared deep into the dark jungle.

The road became steeper and steeper on the way up, and it seemed that we encountered a small slope.

Is that shabby house located on this hillside?

Because so much time has passed, I can no longer remember the exact location of the dilapidated house when I was a child.

The surrounding environment has changed so much that I don't even know where I am.

Although it is cold winter weather and it is at night, I am covered in sweat from running. The sweat beads on my neck flowed into my collar one by one. It was wet, itchy, and very uncomfortable.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the opposite branch——

"Jiejiejiejiejiejiejiejie..."

I was so frightened that I fell heavily on the cold, hard, bumpy dirt road. For a moment, I felt severe pain all over my body, so painful that I almost lost consciousness. I lay on the ground and gasped greedily.

He was breathing in the air around him, and he couldn't exert any strength in his body.

Xiaoyan, is she catching up?

But……

I...I can't run anymore...

I gasped for air, raised my head with difficulty, and looked towards the source of the sound.

On the short branch opposite me, stood a big bird, staring at me.

Owl? Or some other bird?

I was so relieved that I lay limply on the ground as if exhausted, breathing heavily.

Xiaoyan did not catch up.

Now I can see the scene behind me, Xiaoyan is indeed not following me.

Why didn't she come after me?

Hasn't my name already been written in her diary?

How exactly does she want to end me?

I lay on the ground for ten full minutes, then got up little by little, patted the dust on my clothes, and continued walking deeper into the woods.

The road ahead is much smoother.

But I feel like the surrounding environment has not changed at all. I even don't know which direction I came from.

I admit, I'm lost.

But didn't Gao Zhijie say that no matter how he walked, he would reach a broken house, and then go back to that small village again.

But is what they say necessarily true?

What if what they said was all false and Xiaoyan just cooperated with them to scare me?

Then I will be trapped here forever?

I stopped and tried to calm down.

The first task now is to find the direction.

It is said in junior high school textbooks that you can basically confirm the direction by finding the sun.

But you fucking asked me to wait for the sun? I’ll die before I wait for the sun, right!?

It is said that you can also determine the direction by looking at the growth rings of trees.

But now you want me to chop down trees? I’m not Lu Zhishen!!

Look at the horoscope?

I don’t have Zhuge Liang’s ability either!!

Look at the development of vines?

MD Let’s not talk about whether there are trees or vines in this season. Even if there are, I don’t know what vines look like!!

I took out my phone and turned it on.

Still no signal.

What should we do now?

Can we just keep moving forward?

If that shabby house was on a mountain, maybe I could climb to the top and see the way forward clearly.

The worst case scenario is that I still can't tell the direction and keep walking forward. If Gao Zhijie didn't lie, then I can naturally walk back to the village. If Gao Zhijie lied, then I can always walk on a main road.

.

How big can this hill be?

When I get out of the mountains, are I still worried that there will be no signal?

I comforted myself and walked forward silently. The surrounding environment was very noisy, and an unknown bird was still cooing in the distance. The sound was faint, and I couldn't determine its specific location.

Suddenly, I saw a short branch on the tree in front of me.

The big bird was still standing there quietly.
