Chapter 217: Alive
After getting ready to go, we followed the path to the winding mountain that has undergone vicissitudes of life.
At first, I was a little worried about whether the bronze bell would actually trigger the curse, but with the words of the little white face in the United States, the fat man and I instantly understood.
"In fact, the method of entering Panshan was not scientific, and we would use a metal detector to avoid the location of the bronze bell."
"It's really not possible, you can detect its sound waves with an instrument, as long as you can't make a sound, it's fine."
I thought to myself, how could this little American white face know so much, could it be that the fat man told him.
"Don't look in the mirror, the ancients used to dress in the mirror."
"Therefore, the ancient mirror contains countless portrayals of people for thousands of years, and if this place is yin, it is very easy to cause hallucinations and even cannibalism."
The old man, who had been silent in the team, suddenly spoke up at this time, and actually began to hand out rune paper to us.
"This one is a talisman that can protect yourself from all evils."
I was silent, and said in my heart that this old guy really has a way of fooling people.
As for the situation inside, no one will know better than me and the fat man, as soon as the bronze bell rings, the ghost door is wide open, and the sky is cracked.
At the foot of the winding mountain, we discussed how we could dig a tunnel to the bottom of the abyss.
It's the place where the pile of strange bones was found, but until now, the little white face in the United States still hasn't told everyone what he's looking for.
The team was divided into two teams, and the men were responsible for digging caves at the bottom of the mountain, and digging according to the cracks that were full of them would do more with less.
The women set up camp, though they looked weak, but as they assembled the disassembled rifles from their backpacks, they began to patrol and keep watch.
The fat man and I looked at each other and couldn't help but say.
"Looks like this group of gringos is well prepared, and even the guns have been smuggled over."
Xiaoya was left to be watched by the blonde girl until the afternoon, when the originally sunny weather suddenly floated through dark clouds, covering the entire sky.
It rained heavily for three days and three nights, until the early morning of the fourth day, when a thunderclap flashed in the dark clouds with a loud sound that seemed to crack people's eardrums.
"We've dug it through!"
A young foreigner came out of the cave and waved at us excitedly.
"In just three days, how could it be possible to dig to the bottom of the abyss so quickly."
The fat man and I knew the danger there, and the half-snake, half-human covered in tiny white fluff came one after the other, and no one who had not experienced this feeling would ever understand.
For the sake of the conservatism of the team, we decided to leave some people outside to do the pick-up, and the fat man actually volunteered to be a guide in order to be with the American girl.
I don't have much to say, so I can only stay outside with Lao Dao and seven or eight team members.
The weather in the mountains was capricious, and the village that once stood at the foot of the mountain no longer existed, because half of the villagers were suffering from strange diseases.
So the ruins of the whole village were also marked, "dangerous detour".
At first, I even planned to go to the village alone, but I didn't expect to hear screams in the middle of the night in the tent.
"Xiaoya!"
Then I remembered that my daughter was still asleep in someone's tent, but when I rushed into the tent, I saw only blood on the ground and a blonde girl shivering in front of me.
Xiaoya didn't have any accidents, she looked like she was asleep, and the blood stains on her body were not hers.
"There are ghosts here..., they dragged Shanna away."
The girl in front of her screamed and rushed out of the tent, apparently in a serious mental shock.
"We have to tell the captain about the situation here, it's crazy."
A young man from abroad, dressed in a mountaineering suit, ran towards the cave like crazy, his face was pale, obviously frightened by the strange events that had happened in front of him, and he was a little delirious.
Shanna was one of the female team members, and it wasn't until the next day that we found her remains in a cave not far from here.
The entire upper body had been torn and eaten, as if it had been caused by some wild beast, and the sudden situation made the remaining few people panic.
It wasn't until this moment that I noticed that they were just students who were fooled by the little white face in the United States, but the old Tao next to them was still calm.
On the third night, I was startled by the sudden ringing of a bell ringing in my ears.
This was followed by the sound of a landslide cracking the ground.
First, the fat man escaped from the cave, followed by the American youth with only his right arm left and a few panicked team members.
The guns were stained with blood, and they kept looking back as they fled, their eyes full of horror.
"Ganzi run."
The fat man's roar woke me up instantly, and I knew that this group of people must be in trouble inside to cause the bell to ring.
According to what happened half a year ago, when the bell rings, it will definitely come down like a terrifying piece of bad news, and this bad luck will cause the people around it to suffer wherever it goes.
When I returned to the cave base, everyone was in shock, and I couldn't help but ask, "What's going on inside".
The fat man who returned to the room had a horror in his eyes that he had never seen in half a year, and then the next sentence made me a little unbelievable.
"Ganzi."
"What do you say people live for, if one day you find that you and the whole world are other people's dolls, will you collapse and commit suicide?"
There was a flickering in his eyes, and it didn't seem like a joke.
At this time, the team was badly damaged, and only six or seven people remained, including the American little white face who had a nervous disorder in his right arm, and the foreign girl who sat alone next to me that night.
Her name is Alan Ruo, and it is because of her that the fat man chooses to insist on entering the cave and exploring with the team.
In the days that followed, there was an argument within the foreign expedition, and the fat man returned and became silent and disappeared for three days.
I settled Xiaoya, and it took almost all my strength to find him shivering in a dark corner of the house.
I was already angry, and I just wanted to give him a few slaps, but I found that this guy had a dull gaze as if he was a mental patient.
"Tell me what you saw in the cave!"
I tried to hold on to the fat man, and his palms were so cold that I didn't know until I was in the hospital that it was a short-lived "loss of mind".
The patient may have been greatly stimulated, so he will not be able to bear the abnormal scene for a while, and he will be fine after a few days of rest.
I was a little worried about the fat man's safety, so I volunteered to stay and take care of him for a few days, and when I saw him again, he was no different from a normal person.
It's just that this guy doesn't want to joke anymore, and the matter of Panshan is rarely mentioned.
Before leaving, he gave me an envelope, and on the train I couldn't help but open the envelope with curiosity, but inside it was actually a photo they had taken in the cave.
The American little white face held a stone tablet standing on the ground with his right hand, and the four familiar and unfamiliar ancient characters on it were clear and eye-catching.
"Forbidden land on earth."
Everyone on the train looked down at the window until the silent light of the evening slowly drove into the tunnel with the sound of the train's horn.
"Breaking news"
"The train on Line B in L City collapsed after entering the tunnel, and thousands of people are missing, except for one person who got off the train ahead of the station with a child in his arms, and no one else was spared."
