Chapter 107: The Cemetery's Cries for Help
At the moment, this cave is not in the shape of a clay pot, and the exit is not at the top, but judging from the scene that the ghost boy showed me just now.
The function of this cave tomb is almost the same as that of a clay pot tomb.
Although the nerves have been numb, it is still uncomfortable to think of an undead person, being locked up in such a sealed cave, dying alone.
It felt like a boulder in my chest.
This is not an overflow of sympathy, but sadness, a sorrow for the past.
Gently putting down the stone bowl, I took a deep breath, came to the white bones that had been smashed by myself just now, bent over, picked up the scattered bones one by one, and placed them neatly.
When I was done, I unloaded my backpack, took out a pack of cigarettes from it, opened it, took out three and lit them, and made a stick of incense.
The cigarette is old and fat, and the reason why it was not soaked when it fell into the water just now is because the cigarette is new, not opened, and the film packaging on the outside is waterproof.
Standing in front of the old man's bones, I bowed respectfully a few times.
"Grandma is really sorry, just now the kid accidentally stepped on the cave and broke your skeleton, I hope you don't care about the villain, don't blame, the kid is here to apologize to you."
After doing this, I couldn't help but sigh lightly, this is not superstition, but I feel that this old man is very pitiful.
Maybe the old man's soul wandering in the cave heard it, or maybe it was a coincidence, after I finished worshipping, the cave arch that had been sealed by bluestone bricks suddenly collapsed with a bang, and bright light was projected from the outside.
I froze for a moment, walked quickly to the door, and then got out.
When I went outside, I looked at the dense dirt slopes around me, and I had a different feeling.
It's always easy to fall for yourself to be sad, and I didn't like it, so I quickly gathered up and continued towards the forest at the bottom of the canyon.
Only this time, I didn't step on the uplifted dirt slope around me again, because it was a grave.
Dealing with dead people is the most terrible, and there are many taboos, although I am not afraid, but I also do not want to cause too much trouble.
One thing is certain, however, that the presence of so many cave cemeteries indicates that the area was once inhabited, perhaps an isolated ethnic group.
I wonder if they're still here?
I have heard that the customs of some ethnic groups and tribes are very peculiar, and their attitudes towards outsiders are also different, and some are hospitable and treat them as guests; And some ethnic groups hate outsiders, and when they are caught, they dig up the bones and remove the flesh and sacrifice them to the gods.
If a certain ethnic group is still living and breeding here, and a few of our strangers suddenly break in, I don't know how we will react?
As soon as I thought of this, I suddenly had a bad guess in my heart, could it be that Lao Fei and Yan Xiaoying were arrested by the original residents of this place?
Otherwise, why didn't I find them after looking for so long?
Even if they leave, they should leave a mark for me, Lao Fei is not careful enough, but Yan Xiaoying will not either?
After they jumped down the hole, something must have happened!
The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became, worried about the safety of the two of them, and even regretted that I didn't stop them from the entrance of the Ssangyong Cave.
The sky was cloudless, except for the huge black branches of the dragon, which swirled in the sky at an unknown height.
The sky was slightly yellow, and it seemed that it was twilight.
The whole world seems to be filled with a strange, mysterious, and sad atmosphere.
It's a feeling of depressing.
The people did not stop and did not stop, and finally came to the edge of the forest at the bottom of the canyon when it was dark.
Although this grassland covered with Lei Gong root does not look big, it took me hours to walk in it, bypassing the dense caves and tombs.
Fortunately, I walked in it and didn't encounter any other strange things.
The forest in front is dense, and the giant trees rise up to the sky, and each big tree has two people hugging each other, and the big ones can't hug it.
I don't know how many years it took for this forest to grow to this size?
The roots of the old trees are intertwined, and their rhizomes are like snakes protruding from the ground, intertwined, and even if they accumulate for countless years, they cannot be completely submerged.
It's like a primeval forest.
It's just that...... The only thing that makes people feel strange is that the forest is quiet, and there is not a trace of insects and birds.
It stands to reason that such a dense forest is indispensable for all kinds of birds, beasts, and poisonous insects.
But the forest in front of me is as silent as death, and the twilight is gloomy.
The more this happens, the more terrifying it feels to me, like a sleeping beast that seems to wake up at any moment, and it is daunting.
As the sky grew darker, the forest in front of me became deeper and more terrifying.
I hesitated to go in, the giant tree in the distance seemed to be very close, but I didn't know how long it would take to get closer.
Although they carry lighting tools, it is even more dangerous to walk under the dense woods at night.
Although I was worried about the safety of Jingmei and Lao Fei and Yan Xiaoying, I didn't know how to find them in the vast secret realm.
I thought about it, and finally decided to stay outside the forest for one night, and wait until dawn before going into the forest.
Aside from the uncertain risk factors, the most important thing is that I need to rest.
I basically didn't sleep last night, and the three of them came in here with Lao Fei and Yan Xiaoying, and a day has passed, and it is really difficult to support it when the body is injured.
Thanks to the warmth of spring here, otherwise it would be difficult to endure the ice and snow.
With this in mind, I went into the forest and found some dead branches and came back to make a fire.
As I sat in front of the campfire and ate the dry food from my backpack, it was already completely dark.
The pain in my body was unbearable, and coupled with anxiety, I sat in front of the fire for hours without sleeping.
It was estimated that it was about midnight.
The physical fatigue and mental wear and tear made it difficult for me to support it anymore, and I had to rest.
However, this place is a strange and strange place after all, plus there is a cemetery next to it, and there is a silent, deep, and terrifying forest on the side of the foot, and the ghost knows if something terrible will happen after he falls asleep?
I got lost with Lao Fei and Yan Xiaoying, and Xiaobai was not around, but fortunately, I am not alone now.
Place the whip in front of him, cut the palm of his hand, drip blood and feed the ghost child, and then summon it out.
Soon black smoke gushed out from the end of the whip, and then transformed into a two- or three-year-old child wearing a red belly.
After my feeding during this time, although the skin of the ghost boy is still blue, it has a trace of blood, and his every move is quite humane.
"I need a good rest tonight, you help me watch it, and wake me up immediately if there is any accident." I commanded the ghost boy.
"Got it, master!"
The ghost boy happily responded.
I glanced at it, and I wasn't completely at ease with this ghost boy who was originally an evil spirit. But now there is nothing I can do but ask it to keep a vigil for me.
There wasn't so much attention to when I went out, and I fell asleep after lying down and not after a while.
In the second half of the night, a cold wind suddenly blew, and the trees swayed and whirred.
Tossing and turning, I don't know how long I slept, but in a daze, I suddenly heard a woman's cry, and then I realized that my face was licked by something, wet and icy.
Although I have slept to death, my vigilance has never diminished by half a minute.
I opened my eyes suddenly, and I saw the ghost boy lying on his chest, his little head on my neck, sticking out his little tongue and rubbing against my face.
I wiped my face, pushed the ghost boy away, and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?" ”
"There's a woman crying in that place!"
I looked in the direction the ghost boy was pointing, and found that it was pitch black, and I could see nothing with my own eyes.
"Help...... Whew...... Who's going to save me......"
Just as he was about to turn on the flashlight, the cry of nothingness came again with the sound of the wind, which was the direction pointed by the ghost boy.
But when I held my breath and tried to listen, I couldn't hear anything.
"It's not like the wind! How can there be a woman's cry here? ”
I frowned and said secretly: "It is said that the cemetery is evil, could it be that the spirits in the crockpot tomb are doing evil?" If that's the case, we don't have to pay attention to the water from the well. ”
"Help......
At this moment, the crying cry for help came again, this time I heard it clearly, and I vaguely felt that the voice was somewhat familiar.
Coming to this place, in addition to me and Lao Fei and Yan Xiaoying, there are only Huang Yuting and Yang Feng who disappeared before, Xiaobai smelled the smell left by Yang Feng and brought us here.
Could it be Yang Feng!?
At this thought, I took a deep breath, then turned on the flashlight, put on my backpack, took the mountain whip, and followed the sound to touch it.
The ghost boy obediently followed my side, looking around curiously.
Although it is a yin spirit, after all, it was stillborn without birth, and after devouring the resentful spirits of the Gaoshan clan, its wisdom has grown, but no matter what, it is still a baby, so it is curious about everything.
I am mortal, my eyes cannot see in the dark, and although I have flashlight for illumination, it is limited to the range of the flashlight beam.
But the ghost boy was different from me, and under its guidance, I soon came to the place where the strange cries for help were heard.
This is a slope that is several times taller than the other slopes, and to be exact, it should be a cave tomb larger than the others.
The masonry of the arch beneath the cave had crumbled, revealing an eerie opening that could be penetrated into.
A chill came out of it, and I stood in front of the cave and shivered involuntarily.
"Help...... Help me...... Help me......"
This time I heard it more clearly, and I was eight points sure that the person inside was Yang Feng.
"How could she be in the crockpot grave?"
I was shocked in my heart, and looked down at the ghost boy on the side and whispered, "Is there something strange here?" ”
"Well, there's something terrible."
The ghost boy lay at the entrance of the cave and went inside to peep, and suddenly sighed: "I saw it, it was the woman who entered the master's room with a knife that day, and she was lying in a sarcophagus inside, beside her...... There seems to be something else. ”
The ghost boy couldn't tell what it was, but no matter what it was, knowing that Yang Feng was in it and not dead, I would never sit idly by.
So after hearing the words of the ghost boy, I immediately swung the mountain whip and smashed the remaining masonry of the arch open.
When I smashed the bricks and stones and walked into the cave, an eerie aura came to my face, and a sense of crisis came to my heart without warning......
