They were trapped for several days.

In the past few days, they tried walking many times, going around in circles and returning to the starting point every time.

No matter how strong a man is, he cannot help but be timid.

Fortunately, they were still united, and there was no dispersion or internal strife. Still listening to the village chief's instructions.

Zhu Sheng knew that they had encountered the legendary Ghost Daqiang. But he knew there was definitely a way out.

But now, people's hearts are broken.

Many of the trapped people have lost their fighting spirit. If they can no longer find a way out, there is only a dead end waiting for them.

"Dad, I'll take people for a walk over there." Zhu Hua, the village chief's third son, pointed to one side with a stick.

Zhu Sheng nodded.

After waiting for an hour, Zhu Hua and the three men came back.

Everyone looked at each other.

Sure enough, they returned to the starting point, and they made two kinds of marks along the way.

At this time, the man completely collapsed.

"What mistake have we made? We have escaped time and time again, but we are going to die in this forest.

My parents are old and my wife is about to give birth.

If they can't get out, what should they do? "

A dignified man, crying like a tearful man.

Zhu Sheng sighed heavily.

"Everyone, if you keep holding on, I'll go again!" He still felt that since he could walk in, there would definitely be a way out.

"Village Chief, it's useless. You've already walked here a dozen times."

The man said very pessimistically.

"I was not killed by the officers and soldiers, but I have to die here. I really can't live!"

Zhu Sheng frowned.

If he continues to cry like this, everyone will be unable to bear it.

"Let's go again and let fate happen!"

The sound was loud, and the man's cry gradually became quieter.

Zhu Sheng set out again, this time with a few long hemp ropes that he had just braided.

Each one is approximately 200 meters long.

"Tie the rope to the tree." He asked a man to tie the hemp rope on his body to a tree.

This was the last solution he thought of.

So, they tied the rope and walked in one direction.

When one is used up, tie the second one.

After half an hour.

"father?"

Zhu Hua greeted him.

Zhu Sheng shook his head, "No!"

"God is so blind!"

The man howled again, and Zhu Sheng was upset.

What worries him is not only this, but also whether the villagers are safe.

They are men after all, and nothing will happen to them for a while.

But those old, young, women and children have to face a lot more.

So he said angrily, "A man, what's the point of crying?

At least we still have a life, we have arms and legs and we won’t starve to death.

Those people?

Your parents, wives, and children may still be waiting for you to return.

They are more scared and helpless!

Cheer me up, as long as I have the spirit, I can’t give up! "

The man was so scolded that he forgot to cry.

These words made many men regain their confidence.

Zhu Sheng is old.

Since the severe drought began, he has been worrying more and more.

It’s not that I never thought about giving up, but I still shouldered the burden time and time again.

Because of this, his eldest son almost died.

What pushed him to do this was responsibility.

To this day, he still remembers that he is the head of a village. Even though the country was in shambles, he still guarded his duty.

He wants to cry too!

But if crying was useful, we wouldn't be trapped here.

He was a little disappointed.

Among the more than 20 young adults sitting together, only a few are truly strong and resilient.

He couldn't help but think of Li Laosi, Wang Zheng, and his eldest son.

If they really thought anyone was here, it would not be the same as it is now.

Because they never lose hope in life.

He looked up, his eyes shining.

The sky in the west suddenly became bright again, and the long-lost sun broke through the clouds and hung.

"Village Chief!" Suddenly a familiar voice came.

The man's steps were quick, steady and powerful.

"Village Chief, I finally found you!"

Li Laosi walked quickly to Zhu Sheng.

"The fourth child?" Zhu Sheng couldn't believe it, his hands were trembling as he hugged the fourth child Li's shoulders.

"It's me! Uncle Zhu." Li Laosi helped him up. "Why are you here?"

He still didn't know that these people were not going back, but that they couldn't get out.

Zhu Sheng said worriedly, "You walked in anyway, and you can't get out of here. We walked for three days and kept going in circles."

Li Laosi frowned, "A ghost beating a wall?"

Zhu Sheng nodded.

"Yes, that's what the elders said."

Li Laosi glanced around and said, "Eat something first, and I'll think of a solution."

He handed the package on his back to the village chief and asked him to divide the things.

"Fourth Brother," the crying man's eyes turned red again, "How are my parents? And my wife, woo woo woo..."

Only then did Li Laosi remember that he had forgotten to tell them that he was safe.

"It's okay, everyone is okay! They're all back in the woodshed."

The man was so excited that he didn't know what to do.

"Great! Woohoo..."

Li Laosi patted him on the shoulder and went to eat something.

Zhu Hua grabbed a steamed bun in his hand.

"Fourth, I'll go with you."

So the others continued to stay where they were, and Li Laosi and Zhu Hua walked into the forest.

Li Laosi walked the way he came, intending to try to see if it was true that he couldn't get out as the village chief said.

"Fourth, is everyone really okay?"

He thought that the fourth child was just to comfort everyone.

"It's really okay! Those soldiers were killed by the ghost-faced man, and the old people in the village were saved."

"Did you see the Ghost-Faced Man too?"

Li Laosi glanced at him suspiciously and nodded.

"It seems that we are thanks to the ghost-faced man this time." Zhu Hua's face was filled with admiration.

"We also saw the ghost-faced man trying to follow him to see if he could drive away the officers and soldiers, but we didn't realize he was trapped in the forest before he could pursue him very far."

He sighed, "It's not as good as God!"

If he could catch a glimpse of the Ghost-Faced Man, he would die without regrets.

Li Laosi: Is Wang Zheng so popular now?

"Well, don't talk about this now, wait until we get out of the woods. Don't expect to see any ghost-faced people again."

"What?"

"Seeing a ghost-faced man means that there are officers and soldiers chasing him!"

Zhu Hua thought thoughtfully, "I know, they have a grudge against the officers and soldiers. Wherever there are officers and soldiers, they will descend from the sky to punish rape and eliminate evil!"

Li Laosi: Why do I admire this brother more and more the more I look at him?

Li Laosi kept walking along the way he came, and he was sure that he was not going wrong.

However, half an hour later, they were back to where they started.

"What can we do! It seems that we really can't get out." Someone said.

Zhu Sheng frowned.

Li Laosi said, "Don't worry, everyone, let me think of a solution."

He sat with the village chief and looked toward the sun together.

He thought about it. When they were walking on the mountain road before, although Doctor Qin gave them a map, every place was not marked.

Sometimes when you can’t tell the direction, just look at the sun or the North Star in the sky.

When there is no sun, my daughter will secretly take a compass and look at it.

But he didn't have a compass, so he could only place his hope on the North Star or the sun in the sky.

"Is there a way?"
