Sometimes, we are confused by the superficial appearance of a thing. It's like a magnificent building, who can guess what childish, ridiculous purpose is the bloody darkness behind it.

—Desert Sycamore

We've been here for three days now, and we didn't expect it to take that long, but we have been delayed for a lot of time along the way. Now that the flashlight and spare battery are out of power, Boss Bi has been complaining about how he doesn't have a manually charged flashlight.

I comforted him a few words, saying that even if there were, it was useless, the quality of the hand-cranked charging flashlight was not good, and we fell and touched it along the way, and it must have been broken.

Boss Bi thought about it, Liu Guang lit a torch and raised it to illuminate the surroundings, and the corpses were dense one by one. The light of the fire was limited, and we could only see more than ten meters away, and we couldn't see it any further.

Liu Guang was so surprised when he saw a few of us, so he said, "I haven't seen this scene!" Underneath the ancient building, which is so magnificent and worth several times that of Notre Dame Cathedral, is actually a witchcraft burial pit. ”

I didn't quite understand, and he continued: "The deaths of these people are very strange, and they cannot be ordinary burials, but witchcraft burials, which were very rare and terrible in ancient times. ”

Liu Guang walked to a corpse and examined it carefully, then shook his head: "These people's eyes burst out, they must have been in pain before they died, maybe they were strangled to death." And although the martyr on the altar was also a stump and a broken arm, he died peacefully. Do you see it? The tribute of this witchcraft sacrifice must also be divided into ranks, and the higher the rank, the more in it; The lower the rank, the more I don't know how I died. ”

I said, "And none of these people's bodies are decomposed, and their clothes are still there, but they are wearing long and short shirts." Wouldn't this be ......"

"I don't know the rest," Liu Guang stood up, "I don't believe what the fisherman said just now, it seems that we have to find out everything ourselves." But you have to be careful, these corpses are dead and not decomposing, and there are no embalming measures, and the number is so large, I am afraid that something will happen. ”

We cautiously walked along a path between the corpses, and as we walked past the corpses, there was an indescribable fear, very strong, the corpses had been in a place where the sun could not shine for many years, the skin showed a blackened mildew, and the air was filled with a musty smell that made people want to vomit.

The further back I went, the smell of rotting corpses grew, many of them seemed to have been dismembered, their expressions were horrible, and I even found a lot of corpses with fangs.

According to Liu Guang's habits, every five people in our long team lit a torch, and this person was the leader of this group. So my guess is that these torch-bearers must be high-ranking people.

I looked back and there were three torches, and there were 15 of them. Thinking that at the beginning, there were about forty of us who got off the boat and came to Requiem Island, and the journey was thrilling until now, and there were only so many people left.

Well? I saw in a trance that there seemed to be an extra person in the last group, but yes, maybe there was an extra person who couldn't be assigned, so it was given to the last group. But I still feel that something is wrong, and I vaguely feel that something is not good.

Out of caution, I patted Liu Guang on the shoulder and whispered to him, "Did you count just now, how many of us are there now?" ”

"What are you asking for? Go your way well. Then, probably because Liu Guang saw that my expression was wrong, he added: "There are fifteen in total, what?" What did you find? ”

As soon as I heard that there were only fifteen people, my blood was cold, and if one or two were missing, it would be understandable, even if the last group of people were lost, it would still be barely understandable. But with one more person, the problem is serious.

I don't believe it, go back and count it. The one who holds the torch then goes on to the first, second, third, and fourth,...... Five, I suddenly gasped, and it was really not that I was wrong.

I didn't dare to whisper this time, and said with my lips to Liu Guang: "There is one more person in the last group." "The man was hiding at the back of the line, vague, walking a little lame and crooked. If it's an individual, where did he come from? If it was Liu Guang's people, why didn't they follow their rules to the front and report to Liu Guang? Why didn't the last man find him? There is only one possibility, and this is not human at all

Liu Guang didn't dare to slack off, people said that the ghost hit the wall because the ghost was lying on your back, and the ghost who could follow you back, did you pay it back? It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. We didn't stop, because as soon as we stopped the whole group, the ghost was bound to crash into the last man.

Liu Guang handed the torch to one of my subordinates, and he left the group with me and walked to the back. Wang Ziyue and Boss Bi were very surprised to see us stop, and they didn't know what we were going to do.

It's urgent, and I can't say anything more to them, just put a hand to my mouth and tell them not to do much. "Di Yi, don't move! Don't look behind you either! Liu Guang said, raising his gun as he walked over.

Di Yi looked at his boss's posture, and was so frightened that he thought that the boss was going to destroy him, but he quickly came back to his senses, stood motionless, and didn't dare to turn his head back. But...... There was nothing behind him at all.

"Did you even see that?" Liu Guang asked annoyedly, "Teasing me?" ”

I just wanted to defend myself, but suddenly I saw Boss Bi squeezing his eyebrows at me, and said what is the matter, and he still has the heart to play eyebrow dance with me at this time? But when I thought about it, the people around me stood there still, as if they were stiff, and even Liu Guang stood there without moving.

At this time, I noticed the movement of Wang Ziyue's hand, although I haven't learned sign language, but how much will be pointed, Wang Ziyue's action is also a simple kind, I even guessed, plus look at the mouth shape, I immediately understood. The meaning of that sentence is: don't look back, go to us.

I thought to myself, is that ghost behind me now? This is the time when I was most nervous and scared since I was born. It turns out that the ghosts you see in the Mirror Palace are all rules-based, this ghost is too illogical, has you ever studied physics, and has teleportation?

I was thinking about it all the time, and goosebumps were getting up. If it weren't for perseverance, I would have fallen by this time. I walked forward slowly, feeling more and more wrong, a cool breeze blew on the back of my neck, Liu Guang's face became more and more ugly, and my heart said that this ghost will not always follow me! I still feel the ghost gasping for air.

I couldn't take it anymore and jumped away with a loud yell. He turned around and almost fell to the ground.

Behind me, a kneeling corpse on the ground actually stood up. But just standing, nothing else has changed. Liu Guang was not ambiguous, and when he saw that I was dodging, he immediately opened fire.

"Bang bang" two shots, the head was blown out, and a lot of red things scattered around, still writhing. "Red-eyed?" I asked.

Before we could catch our breath, the entire huge cavern suddenly sounded with a "click" sound, which sounded like bones cracking and moving. The whole cave was all over us, and it was as if the cave had come to life. Then the kneeling corpses on the ground shook and stood up, one by one, like waves, from us to the darkness in the distance. Their eyes are open and scarlet.

It's a red-eyed person! Now our feeling and scene are very shocking, even Hollywood blockbusters don't dare to act like this, we stand in the middle of red-eyed people, and we can't move. If this rushes over, we don't have a reason not to die.

"This should be a protection measure for this building, just like the red-eyed man we provoked when we entered the last door of the Mirror Palace last time, but I didn't expect this time there was a delay, so suddenly." Liu Guang said with a self-deprecating smile.

"It's over, Brother Du, we're here to explain! It's a pity that I haven't met a single treasure along the way, and I wasn't allowed to take the painting just now, it's really ......"

Listening to the words of these individuals, I was speechless for a while, when did I still have the mood to discuss these things, Boss Bi, I put up with it, and even Liu Guang was infected.

"You don't have anything you can do?" I asked.

"Of course, you see that these corpses are still frozen in place, we might as well run now, it's better to stay here." Wang Ziyue suggested.

Without him saying anything more, we each picked up our dicks and ran desperately to the door on the other side. We ran forward for a few minutes, and there was still no edge in front of us, when Boss Bi shouted loudly in the back: "Slow down...... Slow, dot ......"

I turned around and scolded: "I told you to sit at home every day and count the money, and you don't know how to go out to exercise, what have you become like here?" "Looking at Boss Bi, I won't be angry, if I am surrounded by red-eyed people, I will be the first to kill him.

But it didn't work anymore, and the red-eyed people let out earth-shattering roars, and turned their heads to us, both near and far.

"Shoot," Liu Guang yelled, "aim for the head!" ”

Although we didn't have enough bullets, this was not the time to save bullets, I took out the FMG9 folding submachine gun as soon as I threw out my bag, it was probably because it was too hasty, it was not folded, and it was still open, I raised the gun and shot it that way.

Several red-eyed people were instantly defeated, and the others were also ready, fifteen people's muzzles spewed fire snakes, and the red-eyed people were cut down in pieces as if they had been cut wheat. Since the red-eyed people occupy a good place, they are basically all lined up, just aim at the head of the first one and pull the trigger.

But the rate of fire of my gun is too fast, and it runs out of bullets in a few clicks. The red-eyed man caught the opportunity and pounced, and was knocked down by a shotgun from the man behind me.

"Hurry up and walk to the door, and retreat as you fight."
