Chapter 204: There Are Ghosts Under the Water
Ah Chuan squeezed up from behind, skimmed the hair of the human skin figurine, raised the flashlight to shine on the top of its head, and chuckled: "In ancient times, it was very common to make human skin figurines, to open a crack in the scalp of a living person, and pour a large amount of mercury, the mercury is very heavy, it will peel off the flesh and skin of the whole body, grab the skull and pull it, you can leave a complete human skin, but no one will do this, it's too cruel, and the flesh and blood left behind are useless, generally poured with strong acid, dissolve the muscles and bones, and just pour it, Simple and convenient. ”
My stomach is full of nausea, I should plug my ears when this guy speaks, isn't it cruel to pour strong acid alive?
The more I looked at it, the more yin qi I felt, and Ah Chuan squatted down and pinched the calf of the human skin figurine, and I heard a strange liquid flowing sound from inside.
"Look, the mercury is concentrated on the legs, it's very heavy, it's light, it's like a tumbler, even if it sinks to the bottom of the sea, it will maintain this position, and by the way, use the highly toxic mercury to avoid being clinging to the creatures, so ingenious."
I couldn't give birth to a trace of praise, no matter how I looked at it, I felt evil and vicious, Ah Chuan stood up, suddenly turned his head to look at me, and smiled sadly: "Do you know why you use a living person?" Because when a person dies, the skin is inactive, and it doesn't look good when it is made. ”
My goosebumps rose, and Ah Chuan laughed twice: "You believe everything, in fact, when you are alive, the body fluids can flow, and the mercury is poured down and peeled off quickly, of course, it is also very important to look good." ”
I didn't look at it anymore, and I felt strange when I touched its fingertips, the temperature around the human skin figurine was extremely low, and there seemed to be a resentment lingering.
"Let's go."
Nineteen said and walked around it into the darkness in front of him, Ah Chuan also smiled, and I glanced at Brother Shen and Eleven again, they still had no expressions, and they looked like they were used to it.
I've practiced my guts for nearly half a year, and my scalp still goes numb when I hear this kind of story, but I don't panic when I see something terrifying, and I can barely be regarded as growing.
We walked around, and I looked back at it several times, and I always felt that it would suddenly turn its head at some point, but it just stood straight with its back to us, and again, there was only a human skin left, and it was impossible to move again.
The sudden appearance of human figurines added a shadow to the road ahead, and we entered another rock crevice, and in the distance I saw a figure standing in front of me.
Again, my heart tightened, it was like returning to the endless tomb, but the stone figurines became human skin figurines, and it was also like a labyrinth here, with intricate rock crevices extending in all directions, and the terrain was complex and had its own merits, and it was impossible for us to write down all the roads, and maybe we didn't know the way back.
I mentioned making a mark, but Brother Shen said that we don't need to, we can only rely on Ah Qing's instructions, and I can't see whether Ah Qing said it or not, if Ah Qing saw these skin figurines, how could he not tell us, and I don't know the reaction of Seeing Nineteen.
These people always hold their words in their hearts, I know that no matter how much they worry about Ah Qing here, they still have to put the task first, even if Ah Qing really has an accident, they won't reveal a word.
We entered the crack in the rock, this human skin figurine is exactly the same as the previous one, but the face shape has changed, its expression is still as numb as a dead man, or it may have been soaked in the sea water for too long, the original appearance has changed, I don't know what is stuffed in the human skin figurine, it is gloomy, and the flashlight cannot be illuminated.
I saw from a distance that there was a fork in the road, we were like entering a large anthill with no rules, there were paths everywhere, and I didn't know where they were going, fortunately there was Ah Qing to guide the way, otherwise I was afraid that I would not be able to get out for three or five years.
There are too many forks in the road, each one different, and the black rocks and all kinds of small creatures are similar, and there is no novelty at all, which only makes the road more difficult to walk.
We gradually walked out of the narrow crevice, the front became wider and wider, and finally we could even walk down three people side by side, and we entered a cave a few meters square, also a natural formation, with twisted crevices distributed in all directions.
I thought the road would get wider and wider, but I didn't expect to return to the situation where I could enter a person, so I took a flashlight and shone around every rock crevice, and in the distance I could see a human figurine standing in it, almost every road.
It was as if we were surrounded by demons, and we chose one of the nineteens to enter, and this road was low-lying, the water was up to the waist, and it was difficult to tread lightly under our feet.
It was slippery everywhere, and we had to walk through the crevices of the rocks, and we had to be careful with each step we landed, and I saw the human skin figurine standing in the middle of the road with its back to us.
The road was very narrow, completely blocked by it, Nineteen pushed it, but it didn't push, he just wanted to continue pushing, but he stopped again, lowered his hand and turned around and said: "Go back, change one." ”
It must be that Ah Qing passed something, I couldn't help but look at the human skin figurines several times, and I didn't find anything abnormal, Eleven turned his head back, just walked a few steps, I suddenly felt something cut through my calf, and "stabbed" and disappeared, I almost didn't scream, and stopped suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Nineteen asked.
There was only that, and then it was gone, and I didn't feel any more foreign objects, and tried to calm myself down: "It's okay." ”
I took a step again, I didn't notice anything unusual, maybe it was an illusion just now, I was comforting myself, but I couldn't get out, I obviously felt something grab my ankle, the force was great, directly pressed my foot to the bottom of the water, pinched my ankle painful.
It was obviously the touch of a human hand, with four fingers on one side and only one on the other, and I felt my hair stand on end, and I exclaimed, "Someone's scratching my foot!" ”
Suddenly, four flashlights shone at my feet, and the hand shrank back like a fish, and only clumps of seaweed floated under the water, which were stirred by us and danced with the current.
Nothing, I stared blankly at my feet, it really hurt, and I still had strength left on my ankles, Nineteen frowned and crouched down to look into the water, he pulled the seaweed at my feet, there was nothing but ordinary little creatures.
I didn't give up, and I didn't enter the water, the rock crevices below were tightly blocked by a mess of shells, and there were no obvious holes, so I couldn't hide anything at all, let alone a person, where did that inexplicable hand come from?
Could it be that there are ghosts in the water?
I straightened up, my clothes were soaked again, everyone was looking at me, and I was a little panicked: "Something is really grabbing me, like a human hand, with a lot of strength!" ”
"It's not that we don't believe you, let's go out first, if there is anything, then we are in danger now." Nineteen said.
I couldn't go on, I closed my mouth and kept up with Eleven's pace, almost running away from that place, nothing grabbed me, but the feeling was still there, I squeezed out of the original gap, I looked back with palpitations, only to see Brother Shen look back several times, he frowned slightly, I don't know what he was thinking.
My ankle was still aching, I bent down and rubbed it twice, and when I looked up, I saw Nineteen's eyes serious: "Take off your clothes and show me." ”
"It's not that serious......"
I was suddenly overwhelmed, we were all wearing wetsuits, and it was too troublesome to see that our ankles had to be taken off entirely, not to mention that it was really not serious, and I glanced into the crack in the rock again, for fear that it was all an illusion, and if I made a mistake, it would be a problem for everyone.
"Hurry up, it's an order." Nineteen's voice carried an irrefutable majesty.
I didn't dare to shirk it, put down the equipment and began to undress, my body came into contact with the humid and cold air, I couldn't help but shiver, the diving suit faded all the way to the ankle, I saw that there was really a clear handprint on the ankle, red and purple, and it was pinched very heavily at first glance.
I was astonished to see that the handprints were the same as I felt, clearly the marks of a human hand, and that the thumb and the other four fingers were very clear, but somewhat different, and the marks were thin and long, the thumb alone was twice as long as mine, and about a third thinner than my fingers, and almost every one had two knuckles longer than my fingers.
I thought I might have made a mistake, but now that the evidence is in front of me, I am even more alarmed, which means that a hand was indeed stretched out in the water and squeezed me hard.
Damn/yes, why am I so unlucky, there are so many people, why did they choose me, I wonder if I have the physique to attract ghosts, and all kinds of abnormalities are out of me every time.
I reached out and touched it, the pain was the level of an ordinary bruise, it didn't look out of the way from the outside, if there really was a ghost, it wouldn't just be a prank, but there was no other way there, where did it come from?
The most terrible thing is not to see the hell, but not to see, I was indeed touched by something, but it escaped without a trace in an instant, there was obviously nothing there, Nineteen also saw it, I also confirmed it with my own eyes, I can see from the hand alone that this thing is not small, it is impossible that a broken hand touched me and ran away.
If it was a large creature, they would not have been able to detect it, but unfortunately the fly could not enter the water, so we had to find out for ourselves.
I looked up and saw that everyone was solemn, Nineteen lifted his mask, his dark pupils glittered in the dim light, he reached out and pinched it a few more times, only the dull pain of bruising.
"Put it on."
Nineteen stood up and let out a sigh of disgrace, and I scrambled to put on my wetsuit and clothes, only to see Nineteen squeeze into the crevice again, and this time instead of going into the water, he bothered himself on both sides of the rock wall and jumped through the bumps on either side of the rock wall to where I had been caught.
