Question

what did Rip see when he reach the top of the mountain with the stranger?​

Answer 1

When he wakes up, all of the strange figures have gone, including the man with the keg of liquor. Rip's dog has also gone. The gun he'd taken with him up the mountain has gone, and a rusted gun is there next to him instead. As he walks home, Rip realises his beard has grown a foot long.
