He stood up and listened carefully. It sounded like water dripping on the stone wall.
“Wenping, Wenping.”
Suddenly, a woman’s voice was heard. Xu Wenping looked around nervously, but he could only hear the voice and could not see anyone.
“You, who are you?”
“Wenping, it’s me. I’m your big sister. I’m Wenhui.”
“Sister, you, where are you? Sis, where are you?”
That’s right. He heard it very clearly. Although this voice had disappeared for 10 years, it had long been engraved in his mind. Therefore, Xu Wenping could tell that this should be Xu Wenhui’s voice.
“Wenping, please save Big Sister. Please save Big Sister.”
“Sister, I know. I’m looking for you now. Sister, where are you? Tell me.”
“Wenping, save me, save me.”
“Sis, I know. I’m listening. Where are you, Sis?”
As Xu Wenping spoke, he felt the darkness and wanted to walk forward. He just followed the direction of the sound, but he still couldn’t identify the approximate range.
All of a sudden, he felt his feet slip. Then, Xu Wenping fell into a bottomless abyss.
He only felt that he was constantly falling. Moreover, the sound of the wind whistling around him was constantly ringing out.
Then, he opened his eyes abruptly and looked around while panting. At this moment, he was still sitting in the car.
“Director Xu, what’s wrong? When I saw you struggling just now, I was about to park the car by the roadside to see if you had a nightmare.”
So it really was a dream.
“Oh, I just had a dream.”
“You scared me to death. Director Xu, I’ve never seen you in such a situation. Is it because you’ve been under too much pressure recently?”
“Nothing. I just dreamed of my sister.”
“What is it? Dream, dreamed of your sister? Did you see her in your dreams? What did she say in the dream?”
“I’m not sure. It’s just that it’s in a very dark and humid environment.”
“Dark and humid? W-what does this mean? Does that mean that she’s still trapped in that place?”
“I’m not sure. How is that possible? If a person stays in that place for more than three years, it’s basically impossible for them to survive.”
“Then what does this dream represent?”
“I’m not sure. Maybe it’s just a dream. Oh right, how long has it been? How long will it take to arrive?”
As he spoke, he raised his wrist to look at the time. It was already 4:00 in the afternoon.
“The further we go, the harder it is to see. I estimate that we will arrive in about two hours.”
“More than two hours?”
After Xu Wenping heard it, he only frowned. He didn’t expect that only about an hour had passed when he felt like he had slept for a long time.
When they arrived, the sky should have already darkened.
“But fortunately, we have already made preparations. We definitely won’t return tonight. Let’s find a temporary place to stay first. We’ll talk about it tomorrow morning.”
After driving for about two hours, they entered a small town.
“If we continue forward, will we be able to reach the village after passing through this town?”
“Yes, that should be the case. According to the directions on the map, the road ahead might become more difficult. Other than passing through a village ahead, I’m afraid we’ll have to cross a mountain to reach another large village.”
“What? We still need to cross a mountain?”
Hearing this, he only frowned slightly.
“This road might be a little difficult to walk, but I never thought that we would have to cross mountains to find this person. One can imagine how remote this village is.”
“In any case, this should be the direction on the map. It’s just that I’m not sure if the actual situation will be like this. We’ll only know when we get there. It’s already so late. Why don’t we stop and eat something first?”
“There’s no need to go down to eat. We’ll find a hotel or inn and check in temporarily. Then, we’ll look around and see if there’s any place to eat. We’ll go there and have a bite or two. We’ll wait until tomorrow morning. If it doesn’t work, we’ll find a local guide.”
“Okay, I just came from there and saw a small hotel. However, in this town, the accommodation conditions shouldn’t be very good. So, Director Xu, I’m afraid you’ll have to suffer a little.”
“It’s okay. We didn’t come here to enjoy ourselves. Let’s go. We’ll go to the place you mentioned.”
As they spoke, they turned around and finally stopped at a hotel near the roadside.
This small town was not very famous, so there were no tourists here.
After entering the hotel, they saw the waiter lying lazily at the back. It was probably a long time before a customer came. If this business continued, it would probably be a loss.
“Yes, hello. We need to book two rooms.”
Xiao Zhou walked over and knocked lightly on the table. It was only then that the woman came to her senses. She quickly put on her glasses and looked at them.
“Okay, I got it. Tonight, right?”
“Yes, let’s open it for one night for now. If necessary, we’ll extend it again.”
“Alright, show me your identity.”
Xiao Zhou took out his ID card and placed it in front of him. Soon, the check-in procedures were completed and the two of them went straight to the room on the second floor with their room cards.
Although the room was a little shabby, it was still relatively clean.
After placing the things in the hotel, the two of them went downstairs.
The sky was completely dark now, and the town didn’t look very lively. There were only a few places with lights on, and it was estimated that they were still doing business.
“Let’s go look around and see if there’s a place to eat. We’ll have a simple bite first..”
