Countdown to Awakening

Chapter 107 Let’s Go Down the Mountain First

After the two of them rolled down, Qi Yuanyuan was hit by a tree and stopped. A pain shot through her back, leaving her somewhat bewildered.

"Hiss...ah...it hurts...my back..." she said in pain.

Afterwards, Qi Yuanyuan curled up on the ground in silence, rubbing her back with tears in her eyes. This time, she was really hurt.

Sun Pandi wasn't hurt much, just minor scrapes on her arms and knees. She quickly got up and ran to check on Qi Yuanyuan. "Yuanyuan, are you okay? ... Can you get up?" she asked, a little anxious, worried something might have happened to her.

If Qi Yuanyuan got hurt, they would all be held responsible...

"It hurts..." Qi Yuanyuan sat up and choked, then touched her back, feeling that there was some hidden danger.

Sun Pandi thought it was her arm too, so she quickly checked her arm and found that Qi Yuanyuan's arm also had some scratches, slightly more serious than Sun Pandi's. She frowned, fearing that there were other injuries. What if this happened?

"Where else are you hurting?" Sun Pandi asked anxiously after seeing this. "My back hit a tree. It hurts..."

Qi Yuanyuan took a moment to calm down. She brushed off the dead leaves on her body and wiped the tears from her face. After enduring the pain, she asked, "How is Zheng Haifeng? Could he really be possessed by an evil spirit? Where is he? I think he's not quite right. What do you think?"

Looking at Zheng Haifeng's performance just now, it was as if he was possessed by a demon. What if he came down and hurt her? Besides, she and Sun Pandi were both injured and were no match for him. And if he was possessed by a demon, they would probably be scolded.

"Yuanyuan, how are you? Are you still in pain?" Sun Pandi patted Yuanyuan's back. Then she looked her over. "Are you really okay? Yuanyuan, I think you're in a serious condition... Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Seeing Sun Pandi's anxious look, Qi Yuanyuan felt mixed emotions. She couldn't let her worry.

Qi Yuanyuan waved her hand and said, "Oh, it's nothing serious. Don't worry too much. It just hurts a little. It will be gone in a day or two. Don't worry. It's really okay."

Then they heard a male voice from above: "Pandi, Yuanyuan, are you okay?"

The voice belonged to Zheng Haifeng.

Qi Yuanyuan looked at Zheng Haifeng with wide eyes, as if she had seen a ghost. She said, "Zheng Haifeng, don't come over here! Stand there and don't move! Don't come over here!"

After she finished, Zheng Haifeng showed a puzzled expression. "Yuanyuan, what did you say? Why did you tell me not to come over? No... You don't think I'm really possessed, do you? I'm fine, how could I be possessed?" Zheng Haifeng said with a smile.

Qi Yuanyuan asked doubtfully, "Isn't that so? You looked like you were possessed just now. You kept chasing us. I thought you wanted to kill us... What on earth did you mean?"

Zheng Haifeng laughed after hearing this and said, "Hahaha, how could that be? I'm not possessed. I was just so surprised by what I saw inside. I was a little scared after seeing it, so that's why I acted like that. Possessed? That's something the old people made up. I'm just pure fear."

Zheng Haifeng hadn't expected that his behavior would actually make Qi Yuanyuan and Sun Pandi think he was possessed... He should have continued to pretend for a while, letting them continue to misunderstand and then tease them.

"Why are you standing there? Still don't believe me? I'm just scared. I'm not possessed!"

He was going to be a policeman, so how could he be so easily possessed? A righteous person wouldn't be so easily possessed.

Hearing this, Qi Yuanyuan felt the pain in her back immediately disappear. Then she asked, "What did you see? Is there really a ghost in there? Is that why you're scared? Tell me what's in there. Tell me and Panpan. I thought you were possessed by a ghost at first..."

Zheng Haifeng then kept the topic in suspense: "Oh... it's so boring to talk about it now, let's talk about it after we get down the mountain. How about... you guys guess first? If you guess right, I won't have to say anything. Guess?!"

Qi Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. Sun Pandi helped her up. She still felt a little uncomfortable standing up.

Zheng Haifeng didn't say anything, and he even kept it a secret... Anyway, she didn't believe there was anything fishy going on. Definitely not!

Qi Yuanyuan frowned, her back still hurt a little.

Zheng Haifeng's expression changed when he saw this, and he asked, "What's wrong with you? Yuanyuan, you're not going to tell me that you rolled down the mountain and hit this tree, are you?"

Zheng Haifeng pointed at the tree and asked. He looked at it. He couldn't imagine how painful it would be to hit it...

Thinking of this, he frowned, his face not looking good. It was as if he had also bumped into that tree.

"Yes, I hit the tree, but isn't that your fault? If you hadn't rushed over like you were possessed, Panpan and I would have been able to run down and roll down in a hurry. Would I have hit the tree? What's with that expression on your face?" Qi Yuanyuan asked. She touched her back, and the mask of pain on her face was no longer so obvious.

Zheng Haifeng continued, "Uh... I really didn't mean to do that. How painful must it be when you hit this tree?"

Looking at her expression, Zheng Haifeng knew that she must be feeling very uncomfortable.

In fact, Qi Yuanyuan felt that her back didn't hurt as much now as it did just now. It really hurt just now.

Seeing that Zheng Haifeng had no intention of speaking, she asked, "We're not going to guess. Why don't you tell us what you saw? Don't keep us in suspense. We didn't see it, and now we're asking you, but you're too lazy to tell us, right?"

If he hadn't gone crazy just now, he wouldn't have fallen down... and now he doesn't say anything... Asking them to guess, who has the time to guess...

"Oh, Qi Yuanyuan, I was just worried that you might have hurt your brain. Now it seems that you are quite lucid. I just saw something. Let's talk about it after we get down the mountain. Let's go down the mountain first. I don't dare to talk about it here. It always feels eerie. Don't you feel it?"

After Zheng Haifeng finished speaking, Qi Yuanyuan also looked at the surrounding trees. She also felt that this place was a little creepy. The ghost stories she had read also mentioned that there were tombs hidden in the deep mountains and dense forests. There were also ghosts among them.

So usually don't talk about ghosts and gods in front of them. Otherwise... the ghosts may take revenge... or follow you.

Come to think of it, let's go down the mountain first. If I were to talk about it here, it would be a bit disrespectful to the spirits. You can disbelieve, but you can't disrespect them.

But Qi Yuanyuan's back still hurt, just not as much as before.
