Chapter 146: The Dead Tree
There was a faint sound of the neighing of war horses in the corridor.
The sound echoed crisply in my ears from far to near, accompanied by the sound of galloping horses' hooves.
Holding back the fear from the bottom of my heart, I pushed the door open a crack little by little, until the strange sound rang out for a long time.
I suddenly realized that the neighing of horses was coming from the second and third floors, and that I was standing on the fifth floor.
For a moment, my eyes involuntarily aimed at the messy rune paper pasted on the glass, which should have been left by the three veterans.
"Alas... Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, what can I do? ”
"Let's do it."
I laughed at myself, and then tore off a few of the yellow paper talismans that were scrawled on the wall and put them in my pocket.
After walking out of the dean's office, he was faced with an eerie corridor, which was already dimly lit and ghostly before the accident, and now it was seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
According to Wu Laogou's words, it is the time period when the ghost gate is about to open, and the living should not disturb the ghosts.
It's just that after I have experienced so many strange events, my mood has already been very different from before, and I am even a little more curious.
Slowly, I walked up to the second floor, where I was closest to the source of the sound.
This is a very strange neighing sound, like a war horse marching in ancient times, but how can there be such a sound in the middle of the night in the hospital?
I don't know, but I can be sure that Xiaoyue's disappearance must have something to do with this voice.
Picking up the red axe that had been placed in the fire hydrant, I couldn't help but grow a little bolder, until I stepped on the steps leading to the first floor.
The dim chandelier above me went out in an instant, and the sudden change scared me, but the truth was imminent.
Even if the demons and monsters from hell are waiting for them in front of them, this time they have to go.
I silently recited "one, two, three" in my heart, and subconsciously pasted the crumpled yellow talisman in my arms on the blade of the axe, and then took a sharp breath and rushed out desperately.
The hall on the first floor was more empty than the other floors, but when I saw the skeleton and ghost horse standing in the center of the hall, I froze for a moment.
"Oh yes, what the hell is this?"
At about 11 o'clock in the morning, a war horse with green ghost fire was standing in the middle of the hall on the first floor of the hospital, and it was burning with terrifying ghost fire.
Through the thick and old iron armor, I could vaguely see that there was no flesh and blood underneath, but a skeleton burning with ghostly fire.
It was a skeletal horse from Hell, and it didn't seem to notice my attention at the moment, but was still roaming the halls left and right.
Shaking his head, from time to time there was a deafening, eerie hissing sound.
"It's... What the hell is this? ”
I gasped and subconsciously clenched the iron axe in my hand.
Suddenly, the warhorse in front of me seemed to notice my presence, staring at the terrifying skeleton with its eyes fixed on the staircase leading to the second floor.
And now I was hiding behind the wall, and the sound of horses' hooves echoing in my ears from far to near, and I almost couldn't hold back the girl's run.
As the minutes ticked by, I endured the sticky sweat on my body and soaked my clothes, and when I cautiously peeked over again, I was shocked to find that the ghost horse had already disappeared.
All that remained was the black-brown footprints that were clearly visible all over the ground, leaving traces of burning wherever it stood, as if a ghost fire could burn everything.
The first night had been a thrilling one, and after I had searched the entire floor, I couldn't help but think that the most likely place to hide people was actually there.
It is also the most terrifying and terrifying place, which should be the iron gate of the minus 1 floor underground that I accidentally found when I escaped.
It's just that I haven't been willing to think about it in my heart, and the strange events I experienced that night are still vivid in my mind.
When the iron door was opened, there was a mercury mirror, which was already around two o'clock in the afternoon, and after repeated observations, I immediately decided to completely chisel the mirror with an iron axe.
It's just that when I thought that I might find a strange mechanism similar to a secret door, the truth couldn't help but make me stunned and at a loss.
Behind the iron door leading to the basement floor is a solid wall, and it seems that it has been some years since the renovation was made.
I was a little unwilling, and then desperately searched for every corner of the hall on the first floor that might have been overlooked.
I knew that what I was stepping on must be the cemetery palace of the generals of the Yuan Dynasty, which had been ignored by the archaeological team, and I could venture to speculate through the introduction of the hospital hanging on the wall.
The Japanese troops stationed here must have accidentally discovered this ancient tomb during the experiment, and at the same time, because the ancient tomb was buried under the base.
Both digging and treasure hunting were at their fingertips, but for some unknown reason, the entrance to the underground laboratory was sealed.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, no wonder that middle-aged dean would be willing to stay in this place for so many years.
In fact, it is likely that his ancestors were Japanese non-commissioned officers who had worked here, which is not difficult to explain why a specimen of old Japanese military skeletons was found in his office.
"TM, this old guy really deserves it, if I hadn't chosen to cooperate with him in the first place, then my fate would be nothing more than two things."
"One is to be coerced by him to go to the tomb to hunt for treasure, and the other is to make his identity public, not to mention that there will be a mysterious person to kill me at that time, or I am lucky to get out of it."
"But there will also be those who have nothing to do, taking advantage of the situation to dig up the past of the Spirit Removal Team decades ago."
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but slap my head suddenly, and I had overlooked one of the most important places, that is, the backyard of the hospital where the general's body was excavated.
It was once listed as a forbidden place by the middle-aged dean, and even the glass on the floor of the building facing there had to be completely sealed.
The time was fixed at 6:00 p.m., and the weather outside the window was gradually starting to gray.
I ran down the stairs as fast as I could, and when I saw the locked back door on the first floor, I couldn't help but chuckle.
"Looks like it must be here."
As I picked up the iron axe in my hand and smashed the lock open, I suddenly remembered the scene when I jumped from the fifth floor.
It's just that because of some brain setbacks, I just vaguely remember that I had a terrible nightmare, and when I woke up, Xiaoyue was lying next to me for three days without closing my eyes.
When I forced the back door open, the horrific sight in front of me almost didn't make one of my big men scream.
In the distance, the white fog was confused, and a dead old tree within the wall was covered with black crows, while three upside-down corpses were falling down.
The eye sockets are deeply sunken, and the water has already dried up, like air-dried bacon, which is extremely Heren.
I walked carefully through the fog until I saw a huge stone monument looming, only this time it was different from the nightmare I had when I jumped off the building.
The real stone monument in front of me was engraved with the names of the Japanese officers, and there were 376 of them.
These people, without exception, are all Japanese soldiers who were accidentally buried here during the terrorist experiments carried out here.
"TM, what are these little devils studying here in the first place, how can so many people die."
I became more and more confused, and I still have lingering palpitations in retrospect many years later, and I am very glad that I made the right decision later.
