Deeper underground

Halfway up the mountain, the area was once again covered in heavy snow due to snowballs. The snow was knee-high when we stepped on it, so we had to take a detour to avoid stepping on the tombstones.

During this time, Sisi gave me a spare pair of earplugs, which were a little smaller than my original one, but I can't find fault now, as long as I can prevent the screams of the ghosts.

"But Shi Yao didn't guard against it at the beginning, is this okay?" Qi Ze asked.

Actually, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, my injuries will heal soon. I just don't know if Mohan's earbuds will be destroyed like mine.

"It's better than not, and if it's broken, it's broken." Hui Hui said.

Sisi also said, "I also only have spare earplugs for the four of us, at least the three of us still have spare ones, Huihui, how are you?" ”

"I'm taking it one step at a time." She's still nonchalant.

I think that's probably the reason why she doesn't team up with anyone, and if she were to be on the team, she would be reckless and the whole team would be in trouble. After all, in a battle with a ghost, the injuries of the team members will affect the team.

She is too team-minded.

However, judging from the core of her previous slashing ghost, maybe there is no need to worry, because she is strong enough.

"But ......" Huihui smiled back, "If I'm really hurt, I don't mind using Qi Ze's spare earplugs." Anyway, you're in the rear, it's quite far away. ”

“!!! Sister Hui, please spare me. Zizzer pleaded.

Speaking of which, why was it that we were all present at the time, but only my earbuds were having problems?

So I interjected and asked, interrupting the conversation between Qi Ze and Huihui.

Sisi replied, "We didn't hear it at the time, we only saw your body suddenly glow, and then we heard the warning sound of the earbuds." ”

"That's why I agreed to come up first, I always felt that this ghost was very different from the previous ones." Mohan followed us at the back.

My body initiates light?

I hadn't heard the skeleton men mention it, and the only footprints I could see were those footprints. I thought it was the help of this overly sensitive vision, but now that I think about it, maybe it's something else.

My body ...... What the hell has become.

The further you go to the top of the mountain, the thinner and thinner the air becomes, and this dress has the effect of keeping out the cold. It doesn't make us all freeze.

It's just that the air inhaled into the lungs is still cold and biting, and it is still cold in the end.

There is only a huge pit at the top of the mountain, and when you look down from the top of the mountain, you can't see the bottom. There were also a lot of restless voices coming from inside. We stopped, and Qi Ze was the first to raise his hand and said, "I'm looking for a perspective, you guys go in and be careful." ”

"Huihui and Sisi play strikers, no problem." Mo Han said, they have already begun to enter the combat state. The former pulled out a knife and was already sliding deeper against the snow. The latter Sisi followed closely. "No problem."

"Our Highness." Mo Han glanced at me. followed in Sisi's footsteps.

We had only been a few dozen meters ahead before there were already four or five blue-skinned ghosts coming from all around, trying to trap us. They were huge, fanged, and spun rapidly on all fours up the steep slopes.

The two men who walked in front slashed them with knives, and Mo Han found the right time to break the core with his gun. Blood splattered, my fist didn't help here, and I wasn't used to moving freely in this situation, and a ghost came around me, but unfortunately, my arm wouldn't stretch, and the punch was empty.

Far away, a support bullet from Zi Ze hit it, and I had a chance to shatter the ghost's chest, where there was a glass bead that shone with a faint light. This was the core of the ghost, and Qi Ze's next bullet quickly caught up and shattered the bead. I was relieved by that.

"Don't relax just yet, the next wave will be coming soon." Huihui's voice came. I tilted my head to look, and sure enough, there were many ghosts appearing one after another in the depths, with different skin tones, different appearances, and their appearances were not good.

By the time we reached the depths, we had already crossed over the corpses of many ghosts.

We dusted off the snow and the corpses of the demons, and took a break.

There is an altar in the far middle, but no tribute is placed on it. Behind the altar is a path large enough for one person to pass deeper. Mo Han signaled to Qi Ze outside the cave, and during this time, he thought about it, "This ghost doesn't seem to be unconscious. ”

"I was instructed by the fused ghost, do you think the ghosts have their own way of communicating?" Hui Hui said.

“…… It's not impossible. Si Si said.

The ghost still has a sense of group...... I thought.

After Qi Ze arrived, we continued to move forward, but this time we didn't encounter the attack of the ghosts, and I don't know if the one just now was completely destroyed.

After entering the path, there was no light, or Sisi. She pulled out her flashlight from her pouch. The size is very small, and the luminosity is within an acceptable range. It also made me wonder how much Sisi was carrying. The previous spare earbuds were too, which was a must-have and normal, but I really didn't know why I brought the flashlight.

At the end of this narrow path was a larger platform, illuminated by the torches in the corners of the cave.

Unexpectedly, there were more than a dozen human beings here. They gathered around and whispered.

Seeing this, Qi Ze said, "What's going on? ”

"Hey !!" Huihui rushed forward and swept past one of them, and only glanced at her and froze.

The man's expression was glazed and his movements were slow. was pulled by Huihui and there was no response. Mouthing words I don't understand.

"People here are all like this, but are they really people? Will it be ghostly? Qi Ze looked around at everyone here and said,

"It's human." Sisi wiggled her glasses, her hands checking their pulses. "It's just that the pulse is very weak, and it is estimated that I haven't eaten and slept normally for a while."

"Anyway, did Luo Jie say that the relatives whose graves were dug up are missing, is it them?"

"Possibly."

On the other side, Mo Han and Huihui turned their heads to check if there was any other way in this space.

I also did what I could, and I didn't see this place in the mountainside. Just looking for those footprints, I saw the place where the ghost was fused.

I used my five senses carefully for a long time, but I didn't get any information at first. There are no footprints in this enclosed space.

Since I couldn't see, I listened instead. It's just that no matter how attentive I try, I can only feel the sound of electricity in the earbuds.

Since the earbuds can prevent the sound of ghosts, do they also prevent me from listening?

With that in mind, I removed the earbuds. Sure enough, the voice came, and it was the same crying sound I had ever heard.

"Why are you here?" I muttered.

My murmur caught Sisi's attention, and she saw me take off the earplugs and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"She's here."

"Who?" Qi Ze also stepped forward and asked.

"The store manager."

"Store manager?" Qi Ze lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "Is it the manager we had dinner with a few days ago?" ”

I nodded.

"Mo Han, Huihui come here." Sisi beckoned to the two of them. and relayed for me what I had heard.

"Where did it come from?" Huihui asked.

I closed my eyes, carefully identified the direction of the sound, and then crouched down and touched the floor, "Probably...... Here"

"I'll guess it's underground, you get out of the way, I'll break a hole." Saying that, Huihui drew a knife.

We pulled away all the sluggish humans who couldn't move freely, and made room for Huihui.

"Are there any other sounds?" After that, Mo Han asked.

"Hmm." I replied, "There are different voices in there." In addition, there are voices that are different from human emotions......"

"That's supposed to be a ghost." Mo Han came to a conclusion. Instead of smiling, he was a little too serious.
