Chapter 43: The Causes of Spirits
Pulp Juice sat in the passenger seat, and Monsoon, White Sand, and Weiwei sat in the back seat.
I was about to drive the car away, but I saw An Chunhong, who was standing in front of the car and looked into the car in confusion.
My first reaction was to lock the door.
Then, I put up reverse gear, kicked the accelerator, and the car rushed backwards.
An Chunhong didn't catch up, she stopped where she was, still confused, as if she didn't understand why we left her behind.
The car was a few dozen meters back, I shifted gears and rushed forward.
After we drove on the desert for a few minutes, Monsoon spoke: "What's wrong with An Chunhong?" ”
I said, "She's a demon." ”
Weiwei said: "Impossible, right? I came to Lop Nur with her. ”
I said: "I saw the dead teammates on the car video, they all crawled out of the sand, flying like locusts, they each went back to the city, some took revenge, some killed innocents!" ”
Bai Sha asked, "What does this have to do with An Chunhong?" ”
I said, "Just now, I saw An Chunhong blowing out notes, and the names of the dead were written on those notes!" ”
Bai Sha said: "She made those people fly? ”
I said, "I don't know what she is, I don't know what spell she's casting, I just know that now we have to leave her." ”
Bai Sha said, "Did you ask her?" What is she blowing the note for? ”
I said, "She said she was overtaking the dead and wishing them to go to heaven." ”
After being silent for a while, Bai Sha suddenly said, "Mr. Zhou, do you think there is another possibility?" ”
I said, "You say." ”
Bai Sha said: "An Chunhong is innocent. ”
I said, "No." ”
Bai Sha said: "Then tell me, who played the picture in the car video?" ”
I said, "I don't know." ”
"Those images are probably a hoax, and maybe the real people behind it are the people who broadcast it," Baisha said. ”
I said, "We have to hide in a safe place until we find out the truth." ”
Bai Sha said, "Haven't you heard that sentence? The more dangerous the place, the safer. ”
I said, "! After I entered Lop Nur, I finally learned a truth, that is, the safer the place, the safer! ”
Bai Sha said: "There is another possibility, what you see is actually an illusion. Then he asked meaningfully: "How many days have you been trapped in Lop Nur?" ”
I said, "Baisha, you can doubt my sanity, but I believe in myself. Now that you have taken refuge in me, I must take you to safety. ”
Bai Sha said: "It doesn't matter, this is Lop Nur, no matter where you go, it's a dead end." ”
The atmosphere inside the car was depressing.
After a while, Monsoon asked me, "Where are we going?" ”
I said, "We can only go to Linghu Mountain." ”
We left the lake at about 3 a.m. and wandered around the desert for hours until we finally found the dead wood.
I parked the car.
Weiwei asked, "What is this place?" ”
I said, "Tombs." There are several humanoids living in it. ”
We got out of the car, turned on the flashlight, and Pulp led the way, and soon found the entrance to the tomb.
The entrance to the ancient tomb turned out to be made of blue bricks, square, and looked like a wind frame from the front. From the side it is a slope that is inserted into the sand.
We climbed down from the frame.
As mentioned earlier, this is an earthen cave tomb, and the surrounding tomb walls are made of white plaster mud and charcoal. It is divided into the anterior chamber, the middle chamber, the back chamber and the coffin seat, with a total of 10 side chambers on both sides.
There are mostly ancient tombs on Lop Nur, and the scale of their tomb in Linghu Mountain is very small, or rather, they have only excavated a small part. If this is the case, then it is likely that there are many thousand-year-old corpses sleeping around them.
The strange thing is that we searched every space, but we didn't see Linghu Mountain, nor did we see a single humanoid, only the poplar coffin they used as beds.
We walked into a side room on the right side of the Backrooms, where Monsoon lived at the time, and we saw the stone pier with a bed topped with sheepskin mattresses and a very modern silk quilt, neatly folded.
Under the tomb wall next to it, there is a long coffin, which is where Linghushan sleeps.
It seems that after Monsoon escaped, Linghushan had been sleeping next to her bed, and had never touched her bed, and had always kept it as it had been for her.
"Where have these guys gone?" ”
Monsoon said, "Maybe it's been moved to another ancient tomb." Boss Zhou, what should we do? ”
I sat down on the monsoon board and said, "We'll stay here." ”
Suddenly, I heard Linghushan's voice: "What are you doing here?" ”
I looked towards the door, and Ling Hushan appeared, and next to him stood two humanoids, one tall and one short.
I said, "Seek cooperation." ”
Linghushan said: "Are you in trouble? ”
I said, "Do you remember the flying man who killed Old C?" ”
Linghushan said, "What's wrong? ”
I said, "They're all our dead teammates, spelled by something. ”
Linghushan said: "They appeared again? ”
I said, "It's not their problem, our team has a woman named An Chunhong, and we suspect that she manipulated all this." ”
Bai Sha interjected: "It's you who doubt. ”
I said, "Okay, I doubt it. ”
Ling Hushan looked at Weiwei and said, "Who is she?" ”
I said, "She's Bai Sha's girlfriend." A humanoid appeared on the snowy mountain and tried to kill her, and she escaped death and was frozen off both hands. ”
Linghushan said to Baisha: "Two hands...... In exchange for our two lives, you are worth it. ”
Bai Sha raised his two hands: "Do you still want to trade?" ”
I said, "Baisha, we're here for help, what do you want to do!" ”
Bai Sha said, "Just ask. ”
Linghushan gave him a blank look and asked me, "What do you want?" ”
I said, "We don't know, I want to talk to you about it." ”
Ling Hushan suddenly said, "I can't take you in. ”
I said, "Why?" ”
Linghushan said: "There is no why. ”
I said, "Aren't we an alliance?" ”
Linghushan said: "An alliance is not a merger. ”
Then, Ling Hushan said: "You turn off the flashlight, we are not used to this kind of light." ”
A humanoid lit a torch and held it up.
We turned off our flashlights, and the tomb was lit up by torches.
Pulp Juice suddenly asked thoughtlessly: "Linghushan, you are humanoid, living in Lop Nur all year round, who did you learn Mandarin from?" ”
This question is so cold.
Everyone stopped talking, including Linghu Mountain.
Pulp said: "I don't mean anything else, I'm praising you for your standard Mandarin." ”
Ling Hushan said: "I have your twelve-year language papers, and I study them every day. ”
"When I leave Lop Nur, I'll send you a set of university languages." ”
This promise is colder.
I looked at Pulp and didn't know what she was trying to say.
Seeing that Ling Hushan stopped talking, Pulp Juice continued: "You have learned so much human knowledge, why haven't you learned some good human qualities? In times of crisis, draw a sword to help, this is called righteousness. ”
Linghushan said: "I don't want to talk about your character. Anyway, you have to leave at dawn. ”
I said, "Okay. Before dawn, though, I'd like to talk to you. ”
Ling Hushan said: "No problem. ”
I looked at the others and said, "There's a sleeping bag in the car, you guys find a place to sleep for a while." ”
Bai Sha said: "Is there still a tent in the car?" ”
I said, "There should be." ”
Bai Sha said: "I and Weiwei are not used to sleeping in this kind of place, so we went out to sleep." ”
I said, "Whatever you want." ”
Linghushan said: "They can't sleep outside. ”
Bai Sha said, "Why? ”
Linghushan said: "You are here to stay, and you will sleep wherever I let you sleep." ”
I said to Bai Sha, "Whatever you want, take two sleeping bags and come down to sleep." ”
Bai Sha glanced at Ling Hushan coldly, and went to get the sleeping bag with Weiwei.
Linghu Shan said to the other two people, "You guys go to sleep too." ”
One of the androids stuck a torch on the ground and left with the other.
The torches "beeped" and there was a choking smell of kerosene.
Monsoon and Pulp sat on the bed, and Linghushan and I sat on the poplar coffin. Bai Sha and Wei Wei slept in the other two side rooms. The two humans, one in the bedchamber and the other in the mid-chamber, are equivalent to guarding the exit.
After everyone settled down, I said to Linghu Mountain, "Not only are we dangerous, but you are also dangerous. ”
Linghushan said: "I have informed all humanoids that they are not allowed to leave the ancient tomb recently, in case they encounter that kind of flying man. ”
I said, "What if the Flying Man always exists?" You've been hiding? Until these tombs become your graves? ”
Linghushan was silent.
After a while, he suddenly said, "Actually, I already knew. ”
I said, "Know what?" ”
Ling Hushan looked at me and asked rhetorically, "Do you know why we can't kill you?" ”
I said, "I don't know." ”
Ling Hushan said: "There is a rule for humanoids to be observed from generation to generation, that is, they must not kill each other, nor can they kill anyone with humanoid blood. ”
I said, "Why?" ”
Linghushan said: "We have passed down a precept from our ancestors - as long as humanoids kill humanoids, or kill humans with the blood of our race, the corpses will be turned into spirits by some mysterious force and plague the world. Do you know why we killed your father? ”
I didn't speak.
Linghushan said: "At that time, we expelled him, he found you and wanted to kill you, he violated the law. ”
I said, "If you kill him, won't he become a spirit?" ”
Linghushan said: "Negative and negative are positive, no." ”
I said, "Are spirits zombies?" ”
Linghushan said: "Zombies don't have brains, but spirits have brains. ”
After a pause, he added, "In the earliest days, we didn't know that you had our blood in you, so we killed several of you. My guess is that they've all turned into spirits. ”
I, Monsoon, and Pulp were stunned.
After a long time, I said, "That is, whether I kill you or you kill me, you will become that kind of flying person?" ”
Linghushan said: "That's right. ”
I said, "I finally understand why our group of people have been called into Lop Nur!" ”
Linghushan said, "Who summoned you in?" ”
I said, "That's An Chunhong." We had already discovered that our group had all kinds of coincidences before entering Lop Nur, and in the end, we were all introduced to Lop Nur. We only thought it was the arrangement of fate, but we didn't know that there was such a deep conspiracy hidden! She tempts you to kill us, or we kill you, and end up as a spirit in her hands! ”
Linghushan said: "Exactly. ”
I didn't hear him say anything, I suddenly patted my head and said, "By the way, I remembered something else!" Think about it, why did a flying man suddenly appear that morning, kill your old C and our rice ears, and then fly away again? ”
Linghushan said, "I don't know. ”
I said, "That's exactly what An Chunhong manipulated!" ”
Linghushan said: "Why did she do this? ”
I said, "At that time, you were going to avenge the two people who died, right?" ”
Linghushan said, "That's right. ”
I said, "You threaten to kill those three humans who don't have humanoid blood, and An Chunhong is one of them!" ”
