When they got off the bus, they found that they had only just reached the foot of the mountain, and had not yet entered the mountain. The trees below were enough to surprise them, let alone what the mountain was like.

It's so spooky in here. I should have asked for leave." 'said Stella, shrinking her neck timidly.

Nicole patted her consolingly on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid. There are so many people.

"If nothing else, the air is fine." Peter closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Nicole turned to look at Danica, only to find her standing still, looking up at the top of the hill, wondering what she was thinking.

"Next, I'll talk about the allocation of personnel, and then we'll take a break and start our training today."

"Will we be separated?" "Whispered Stella.

"Why are you so timid here? What a way to do medicine!"

Like Nicole said to a sore spot, she stomped her foot: "I am not timid! I'm just not used to it..." The last words lost momentum.

"All right, quiet, class." The teacher who led the team suddenly said, "Today our training is a little special, so everyone should be prepared mentally, must listen to the arrangement, can not run."

Now we're going to start dividing everyone into groups of ten, three groups in total.

Nicole and Stella they four girls and Yang Yang, Xu Lingling these strangers formed a small team of ten people, and so on all the people have found their teammates began to prepare to enter the mountain, but when they are ready to enter the mountain but found that the coach and teacher in a clean place set up a tent.

"Coach, aren't you coming with us?" "Asked one of the students, in a loud voice, and all of them looked at the coach and teacher with puzzled eyes.

" We will wait for you here. Remember, there is only one way out of the mountain, so you must come back before dark."

The content of the military training is not difficult, that is, the school will put three flags in a certain place in the mountains in advance, and then let the students find and bring back to complete the task, although it sounds not difficult, but in such a big mountain, can not help but make people feel too difficult.

"What mission? Such a big mountain, how can you find such a small flag! School is so sick!" 'Peter complained.

"The school gave us a map! In fact, the school is doing this to exercise us!" A boy's voice suddenly came.

The others looked at him, and he smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Chu Feifan. Please introduce your own name. So we can take care of each other!

Everyone gave their names in order, and when everyone had introduced themselves, they began to walk up the hill.

Chu Feifan is a very handsome boy, the skin is very white, but will not give people unhealthy feeling, deep eyes shining bright light, long eyelashes make girls jealous, high nose bridge, thin lips, let a person take a look and never forget a face, perhaps because Chu Feifan extraordinary appearance, we all agree to follow his advice.

Nicole looked at the trees that covered the sky and felt uneasy again. She looked around at the scene. She could no longer see the other two teams. Because there are too many trees, the light around is a little dim, we carefully step by step on the fallen leaves.

Chu Feifan has been holding a map to lead the way, the map on the red mark is the location of the flag they are looking for, it seems to be far away from their current position.

"Chu Feifan, may I see the map?" 'said a girl suddenly.

Nicole took a look at her, each team is five men and five women, the other three girls and her in the same dormitory, that she is Xu Lingling.

Xu Lingling looks like a very weak girl, white face a pair of shallow dimples, although not very beautiful, smile but a kind of people cherish the feeling.

"Good." Chu Feifan will map to her, eyes but intentionally or unintentionally looked at Nicole.

Nicole walked behind Xu Lingling. She glanced at the map and started to walk. Stella caught up with her and said, "Don't you think Chu Feifan is handsome?"

'What's the matter? She did not care to answer, but her eyes have been looking around.

"And do you like him?"

When she asked, Nicole pulled back her eyes and said, "Please, our job right now is to find the flag, okay? Stop being stupid."

Stella stuck out her tongue and said, "Yeah!"

"Ah!" a sudden scream pierced the silent sky.

'What's the matter? Chu Feifan quickly walked to Xu Lingling's side, concerned to ask.

"I feel like I've been bitten by something on my leg." Xu Lingling answered with tears in her eyes.

Chu Feifan carefully squatted down to check her leg: "Oh! It was cut by a branch, but it wasn't a snake."

"Is it just a cut by a branch, with such pomp?" Stella, who never blamed a delicate girl for anything, looked at it lightly and snorted as she walked on.

"You're more scared than usual in a place like this." Xu Lingling continued to speak softly, completely unaware of the irony in Stella's words.

"Bitch" Peter can't stand it.

Xu Lingling stared at her, slowly leaning on the body of Chu extraordinary, with the eyes of victory at the girls, Chu extraordinary will help her body up and said: "Continue to go! Otherwise we won't be able to make it back after dark."

Xu Lingling nodded and followed Chu carefully.

"Hey, Nicole, you go and ask Chu Feifan to take care of you! He won't talk to that girl if you go." Stella said, taking Nicole's arm.

"Why do I need someone to take care of me?"

They said Chu extraordinary have heard, in hearing Nicole said do not need to be taken care of, his eyes flashed a glimmer of disappointment.

"Did you smell something strange?" Zuo Yi said suddenly.

At his words, everyone sniffed hard, but shook their heads to show that they did not smell.

"It smells like something's burning." "Nicole said.

"The smell is coming from over there." Chu Feifa continued.

"Let's go and see!" Danica, who had been silent, smelled it, too, and picked up her feet and moved on.

Nicole looked apprehensively at the direction she was going. "But it's not where we were going," she said.

"Never mind, let's take this opportunity to explore!" Chu Feifan looked at Nicole affectionately.

They all agreed, and she could not say anything, so she followed them. More and more leaves were falling under her feet, and the decaying leaves, coupled with the unknown smell in the air, made people feel a little pungent, and the further she went, the stronger the smell.

"That's the smell of burning. Nicole, you have a nice nose!" 'said Stella excitedly, seeing the glow.

"But what are they cooking? What a terrible smell!"

"But what is she burning? It smells terrible!"

While they were talking, they walked on. A woman knelt beside the fire and slowly threw something into the fire. The sound of crying could be heard vaguely.

'Is she crying? 'Peter whispered in Stella's ear.

Hearing the footsteps, the woman looked up and saw them. With a frightened look on her face, she shook and said, "Who are you and why are you here?"

Xu Lingling was frightened and immediately hid behind Chu Feifan.

"Wayan, we are medical students here for military training." Nicole stepped forward.

"Get out of here at once. This is not where you should be." "Snapped the woman, her face even more alarmed.

'Why? Chu Feifan walked to Nicole's side and asked.

"Leave when you are told to! Beware of being cursed to death."

Hear the word "curse", everyone gasped, Nicole more confused, here is not desolate? How could there be a woman burning something here? Thinking of burning something, she looked close to the fire and took a step back in horror.

As if remembering something, the woman gathered her things and left quickly, as if there were a plague on the crowd.

"Don't listen to her nonsense. Let's go on!" Chu extraordinary seems to feel Nicole strange, thought she was afraid, comfort said.

"Look, what was she burning?" Nicole crouched down, picked up a branch and turned the still-burning fire.

Hearing her say this, Chu Feifan also squatted down and looked carefully: "It seems to be the bones of some animal."

"Bones? No wonder it smells so bad, but why did she burn the bones?" Stella was standing next to Nicole.

"Perhaps she was paying her respects to someone!" Danica's voice came in a faint voice.

Hearing Danica's words, the crowd, who had already been a little scared, stood still and shivered. It seemed to be darker all around. The sun, which should have appeared, did not appear, perhaps it was covered by trees. Looking up at the sky, Nicole thought.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. Let's find the flag and get out of here as fast as we can!" Chu Feifa looked at the crowd and said.

Just as everyone was about to leave, suddenly there was a scream again, this time from a boy. He looked behind Nicole in horror, as if he had seen something terrible.

"What's your name?" Junsheng some angry said, had heard the curse such words are scary enough.

"I just saw a figure flash by there, as fast as the wind." "Hui Meng said, pointing to Nicole's trembling behind her, his teeth making a" clucking "sound.

"Is that woman back again?" 'said Peter.

"No, it wasn't. The woman was wearing black, and I saw a white shadow."

"Let's go back! It's so scary here!" Xu Lingling said, pulling Chu Feifan's clothes.

"Well, let's stop speculating and get back to the flag!" Nicole said impatiently that she didn't want to be here anymore. The air was too oppressive to breathe.
