Volume 4 The Stranger Chapter 36 What is a Myth
"There is no such thing as ghosts and gods, and the so-called ghosts and gods are nothing more than science beyond the reach of human beings...... Plus your own imagination. Wang Feng patted Henry Bacon on the back and felt a little uncomfortable inside.
"I've never believed in ghosts......" Henry Bacon took out a handkerchief from his bosom and wiped his mouth.
The two of them boldly approached the building next to them, the oak door of which had fallen and a row of miserable stone prisons lined up neatly.
"There are about ten of them."
Wang Feng looked at the stone prisons, the iron bars of the doors and windows were rusty, and there were human bones in three of them.
At the same time, Henry Bacon excavated a prehistoric tomb and found some skulls inside, on which indescribable hieroglyphs were inscribed.
"I can't read these words...... Henry Bacon, though he was well-read, could not see where the hieroglyphs on them came from.
Wang Feng looked at those words and shook his head: "These words are beyond the scope of what we can understand. ”
He glanced at the dark area.
"Let's go ahead and have a look!"
Wang Feng pointed ahead and walked over.
"I feel like we're exploring something outside of human civilization." Henry Bacon hastened to follow.
Suddenly, Wang Feng stopped and froze there.
"Why did it stop all of a sudden?"
Henry Bacon couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he saw Wang Feng stop.
Looking in the direction of the flashlight, countless deep pits appeared in front of the two, and the mice in the pits feasted to their heart's content.
"What they say is true......"
Wang Feng looked at Henry Bacon: "Because of the shortage of food, these rats swarmed out of the castle and launched the crazy catastrophe in history that the villagers will never forget. ”
"That's not a rumor......"
Henry Bacon realized that what the villagers had said before was true.
The rancid pits were full of sawn and gnawed bones...... Numerous skulls have been knocked open. No one knows how long this nightmare lasted, filled with human and non-human bones.
The two couldn't tell how deep this pit was, even if they took a flashlight to shine it, some of the pits were still bottomless, and how many lives were filled in it could only rely on their imagination.
"If you accidentally fall down...... Wang Feng didn't dare to imagine what it would be like.
He accidentally slipped on the edge of a deep pit, and suddenly felt extremely frightened, but fortunately, Henry Bacon on the side directly grabbed Wang Feng.
"Be careful......
Wang Feng relieved himself and shifted his gaze to other places.
At that moment, a voice came from the dark, unreachable depths, as if someone was crying.
After hearing this, the two of them immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and the sound of this crying was extremely unnatural, and it seemed to be mixed with the wails of countless people, and in this wail, the sound of beating could be clearly heard.
Although Wang Feng and Henry Bacon were a little alert, their hairs stood up involuntarily.
Before the two of them could recover their senses, the strange sound of the flute sounded again in the darkness, howling aimlessly.
The flashlight in his hand flickered twice involuntarily, and the black snowflakes in the sky fell one after another.
Wang Feng stretched out his hand to catch these black snowflakes, but found that these were not snowflakes, but black fragments formed after something burned.
He looked up overhead, and a black sun was sitting there, from which all the black shards had fallen.
"Otherwise, let's go back first!"
When Henry Bacon saw this scene, he couldn't help but want to run away.
"I can't leave."
Wang Feng knew in his heart that the moment they came in, there was no way to escape.
The rats in the pit heard the sound of the flute, began to become restless, and came out of the nest and walked in the direction from which the sound came.
"Keep up."
Wang Feng hurriedly followed the rat swarm forward, although Henry Bacon was a little reluctant in his heart, but he had no way to retreat.
Although their flashlights have all gone out, they can still see something.
As they walked farther and farther away, various sounds also reached their ears.
The roar, and the echo, the flute grew quieter...... And the rats were scurrying louder and louder.
Wang Feng squinted his eyes, and in the darkness, he saw a silhouette and heard the sound of running water.
"There is the sound of water...... There is a river nearby? ”
Henry Bacon pointed ahead, his eyes wide open, speechless.
Wang Feng looked in the direction he pointed, and the rats crawled madly into the endless river.
A pile of mouse corpses suddenly appeared on the entire river, and the dense patch dyed the river water black.
"It's horrible......"
He looked at Henry Bacon and found Henry Bacon squatting on the ground with his head in his hands, and a sentence was being read in his mouth.
"Mad God...... ...... Nayarathotep"
Wang Feng hurriedly squatted down and patted Henry Bacon and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Henry Bacon grabbed Wang Feng's collar directly: "I saw something I shouldn't have seen...... Just above that river......"
Wang Feng looked in the direction that Henry Bacon said, and sure enough, in the intersection of the fog and the black fragments, he saw a terrible phantom.
Unusually tall, I can't see the shape of the guy at all, but even the outline has begun to distort, countless tentacles are waving there, and there are strange sounds coming out of my mouth.
Only then did Wang Feng react that there was no sound of crying, and all the sounds he heard came from this guy's mouth.
"That guy is watching me......" Henry Bacon put his head on the ground, his body trembling, and he didn't look like a gentleman before.
In the blink of an eye for Wang Feng, the behemoth that had been hiding there before disappeared in an instant.
Henry Bacon fell to the ground, gasping for breath, and now he was sweating profusely.
"What the hell is that? I could feel the guy watching me all the time...... And that's not all...... I ......" Henry Bacon could not say any more.
"I guess it's an evil god! You just called out the guy's name. ”
Wang Feng helped Henry Bacon up.
"I wasn't impressed...... I don't know the name of that guy either, I don't know how I can say her name, it's like it's engraved in the back of my mind......" Henry Bacon looked at the river in front of him: "It's really horrible...... The moment he looked at me, my whole body was already in a trance......"
