Chapter 59: Fluorescence from the Netherworld
The corpse hung on top of me, face to face with me, and it looked as if I was holding her. I hurriedly stood up, but I didn't expect the corpse to follow me up from the pit.
This situation frightened me, and I said no, it's all like this, can I still cheat the corpse? But then I realized that things were not what I imagined, and that the corpse would move not because of the corpse, but because I accidentally let her hand hook my clothes when I was moving the corpse just now, so the corpse would follow me out of the pit.
After understanding what was going on, I was a little relieved, but I didn't want to be pestered by her, so I went to pull her hand, and found that the hook was quite tight, and I didn't pull it off after a few pulls, and I was a little puzzled now.
The corpse's hand was on my shoulder, and I guessed that my fingers were hooking the clothes on my back, but I couldn't look at my back, so I had to touch it with my back, and I didn't get it open after a long time, and my heart began to get anxious. At this moment, I inadvertently swept the face of the corpse, and was stunned for a moment, and then the anxiety in my heart turned into fear, and I saw that the corpse was showing a very strange smile towards me.
I remember very clearly that when I looked at the corpse below, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, but it was not noticeable, and now her expression was completely that kind of let go of laughter, and I even suspected that if it weren't for the fact that her skin had dried up, she could have seen dimples at this time.
A swishing cool air rose from his back, there was definitely something wrong with this fucking corpse.
"This, this...... Beauty...... Beauty, I, I see you hanging on there... Blame the poor one, kindly thought... I want you into... Into the earth for peace, you... How can you be en... Will Grace take revenge? ”
I said in a trembling voice, and I couldn't say anything. After waiting for a long time, the corpse still didn't react, I really couldn't stand this weird atmosphere, gritted my teeth, my heart was horizontal, and shouted: "Okay, you ungrateful and decrepit ghost, I am also a serious descendant of witchcraft, don't go too far, be in a hurry, watch me use witchcraft to make your soul fly." Don't do it again, for the sake of your fellow villagers, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, give me a dream, if I have the life to leave this place, I will definitely help you, if you don't know what to do, don't blame me for being polite. ”
The Taoist priest told me that ghosts are afraid of wicked people, and when they encounter unclean things, they should be stronger and more beneficial to themselves, and they can deter yin and evil, but I don't even feel that the words I have just said are not imposing, and I don't know if they will be useful.
What I didn't expect was that not long after I finished scolding, the dry hand that had hooked my clothes before and couldn't get it off actually fell off by itself, and the body also fell into the pit I dug and didn't react.
Seeing this, I was overjoyed, I didn't expect this method to be really useful, I didn't have time to think about it, I bowed to the corpse, and was about to fill in the soil, when I suddenly found that the corpse's hand was spread out, and there was a carved dragonfly in the hand.
My heart moved, I picked up the dragonfly, and in an instant, the corpse's hand that was still frozen in the air just now suddenly let go, and looking at her expression again, it had become calmer, and I could no longer see the weird smile I had before.
In an instant, I felt something, hurriedly filled in the soil, and bowed to the bulging small grave bag without a tombstone, and then I would not get out of the cave, as for the idea of helping the thigh bone that I used as a stone to fight the whole corpse, I have long been left behind, just kidding, so many bones, how to find them? Besides, I don't know where the thigh bone was thrown in......
When I got back to the stone path, the murmuring sounded again, but I was relieved because the voice was, "Thank you! ”
On the way afterward, I encountered more than a dozen caves of different sizes, without exception, each cave was full of corpses, and it was not until this moment that I deeply realized the horror of Yeling. With so many corpses, it is impossible to guess the origin of these bones with common sense, but it is certain that this is definitely not the corpses of the villagers of the nearby villages, because there are only a dozen villages in the vicinity of Yeling, and even if all the people of each generation of these villages gather here, I am afraid that they will not be able to fill one of the dozen or so bone caves.
I have also thought about other possibilities, for example, there were people in the vicinity who came in to construct, because this stone road to the bottom of the sinkhole was dug out by hand, to dig such a long plank road on such a steep rock wall, it is undoubtedly a super huge project, not to mention the stone road above more than 40 meters I did not find, even if it is only these I walked later, I am afraid it is far more than 100 meters.
To complete such a project in such a desolate and remote place, it is impossible to do it without a certain human base, these piles of bones may be the construction personnel at that time, plus the people who have entered Yeling one after another for so many years and have not gone out, although the number of bones still cannot reach the current level, but it can barely be explained.
I still can't estimate how deep the sinkhole is, because more than once I poked my head out and looked down, but I couldn't see what was going on, not even the blue spot that I had seen faintly on the top of the sinkhole, and when I looked up, I could only see a white spot the size of a bowl.
Counting the more than 40 meters I had descended with a rope before, I had already gone deep into the sinkhole for nearly 150 meters, but it was still deep below, except for the darkness or darkness, and the light above my head gradually became fainter as I continued to go deeper, as early as about 100 meters, it was already very faint, and now it was almost as dark as night.
There was not the slightest sound in the dark and deep sinkhole, and it was eerily quiet, and at this depth, even the vines on the surrounding cave walls were gone, leaving only the blue-black slippery rock walls. I stopped and looked down again, but I couldn't see anything, as if the darkness below could swallow it all.
At this point, my heart began to beat a drum, and I was a little reluctant to go any further, and according to the current situation, even if I walked more than 100 meters, I might not be able to reach the end, and I even had the illusion that this sinkhole seemed to lead to hell.
I looked at my phone, and it was half past three, and it was daytime, and the battery of my phone was less than half. I silently calculated in my mind that if I stopped and walked back, it would take me more than two hours to return to the first bone cave, and as long as I managed to get the rope, I could use the rope to climb to the stone path to go back, and then go back to the top of the sinkhole through the stone path.
The stone path was built very secretively, and it was very neat, and I believe it must have led to the top, but I had not found it before, and in this way, it would take me less than three hours to get back to the top of the sinkhole. But just because you go back to the top doesn't mean you can be saved, because there are even more terrifying strange trees above, and even if you can make it through the woods, who can guarantee that the evil fog outside has dissipated?
After a little analysis, I decided to continue on, the reason is very simple, my feelings tell me that the things under the sinkhole have a very important relationship with me, fate let me enter Yeling again, and find this mysterious sinkhole, there must be something I must experience. Perhaps, this has something to do with the source of the curse.
It was all just my gut feeling, but now that I had made the decision, I didn't hesitate to look at my phone and continue walking.
The dim and faint light of the mobile phone is not enough in the completely dark sinkhole, I really want to take a closer look at the panoramic view of the surroundings, but the light is insufficient, can only illuminate the stone road ahead, which can ensure their own safety, such lights, once encountering emergencies is definitely useless. That's when I started to regret why I didn't have a night vision camera, it was a great thing for exploring such a completely dark environment.
After walking down more than thirty meters, it was already more than one hundred and eighty meters below the sinkhole, and just when I was thinking about whether this pit would be the legendary bottomless pit, a faint blue point of light appeared below.
The point of light was faint, so lonely in complete darkness, but it exuded an air of elegance and nobility, giving people an untouchable divine beauty.
Looking at this dreamlike blue light, I felt a deep unreality, as if the fluorescence was my illusion. I also suspect that this was a hallucination caused by being in such a claustrophobic dark environment for a long time, because the dreamy blue light I had seen on the sinkhole last night kept coming to my mind during the overshoot of the downward movement.
I pinched myself, it hurt, not a hallucination. My chaotic spirit suddenly lifted up, and appeared, this fluorescence is real!
I took a picture on my phone, even though I knew it was useless. Of course, the blue light is not necessarily at the bottom of the sinkhole, but it is also possible that something that emits blue light grows on the four walls of the sinkhole, and the halo spreads, which gives me the illusion that the halo is in the middle of the sinkhole.
In either case, the appearance of blue light at least shows that I am not far from it, in such a dark environment, if it is not close, the blue light I see cannot be so large, and I am less than thirty meters away from the blue light.
Continuing down, the blue light became clearer and clearer, and after about twenty meters down, I had roughly seen the true appearance of the blue light, and I was so shocked that I couldn't speak, and even almost fell down with one foot in the air.
