Book 2: The Bronze Hanging Coffin of the Ba People Chapter 10: The Horror of the Power Station
We walked along the largely invisible concrete road for about three minutes or so.
Suddenly, Dachangtong stopped in front of me and squatted down, "What's wrong?" I asked curiously as I crouched down.
"Dude! We're here! I looked in the direction pointed by Dachangtong, and saw the silhouette of a hydropower station standing faintly in the faint moonlight and smoke about a few dozen meters away in front of me.
The smoky hydropower station faintly revealed a faint light. "Strange! How can there be lights in this hydropower station? Dachangtong muttered to himself as he looked at the light in the smoke.
"If there is a light, it means that there must be something wrong with this abandoned hydropower station." As I spoke, I was about to sneak into the dark at the hydropower station, but Dachangtong stopped me, "Alas! Dude! Don't panic! Don't panic! You see that the smoke is getting bigger and bigger, and the moonlight has been blocked, and there are too many deep pits left behind by digging wells to measure the water source on the next road. ”
"Then we don't have any lights, so we can't spend it here." I insist on taking risks.
DCH insists on not letting "no, no, no! Elder brother! I have a lamp on board, I'll go get it. ”
I should say, "Yes!" Then you go and come back quickly. ”
After Daechang left, I kept looking at the position of the lights at the hydropower station. This situation suddenly reminded me of the experience of the haunted house in the forest two years ago, and now the environment here is more weird and gloomy than that time, maybe because of the psychological effect, I couldn't understand feng shui before, so it was naturally not the same thing, but now I understand a little bit and see that this place is the door of death, so it is inevitable to have preconceived taboos and precautions.
The wind was blowing gently, the weeds were ringing, and this scene made me always feel as if something was sneaking towards me in the grass, and I couldn't help but feel a chill behind my back, and my whole body was unconsciously creepy.
"I'll go! Why am I so unlucky? Every time this situation is my own. "Just as I was complaining, the light in the smoke suddenly went out, and the hydropower station was completely engulfed in darkness and smoke as the lights went out.
Seeing this, I was in a hurry, thinking that I was afraid that the secret visitor was going to run away, and Dachangtong hadn't come back yet, and I had been going for most of the day, why hadn't I come back? So I couldn't care so much, and I moved straight to the direction of the hydropower station in the dark.
It didn't take many meters to change the sky, and the gentle breeze that was still regular changed when it said that it would change, and immediately turned into a strong wind, gathering the thick layers of dark clouds in the west, and buckling it on the entire island, it seems that this place of death has begun to demonstrate. Because the smoke and dark clouds have blocked the moonlight, the silhouette of the hydropower station, which was still vague, has been completely swallowed up in the darkness, and I can't see it at all, so I can only find the specific location of the hydropower station with my approximate memory.
Just when I walked out of almost ten meters and nearly twenty meters, there was a sudden dinging sound in my ears, and soon! Very urgent! It's like the sound of an iron chain moving at a rapid pace.
But all around me was blinded by the fog, and with less than a meter of visibility, I could only stare at the source of the sound, but I couldn't tell what was approaching me.
As the sound got closer and closer, my heart beat faster and faster, and I became more and more nervous. A dark thing came straight at me from the smoke, and I seemed to see a pair of eyes in the black mass between the lightning and the flint.
At this time, the black group was already close at hand, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I subconsciously took a big step back, trying to avoid this sudden thing that I don't know what it was.
It doesn't matter if I retreat, I feel that my feet are stepping on the air, and the whole person instantly falls weightlessly, and my first reaction is to think of the abandoned pit that Dachang Tong just said, who knows how deep this has to be? Luckily, less than two seconds before I fell, I spread my limbs, used gecko power to stop myself from falling, and then held my posture to slow down, calming my heartbeat, which was still accelerating, before I began to climb upwards.
By the time I had climbed out of the pit, the surroundings had long since returned to calm, and the thing that had just struck me was gone, completely disappearing into the gloomy smoke.
I wanted to find out what was attacking me? But when I thought that the fat man might really be in the abandoned hydropower station, I was very anxious, so I had to give up tracking the strange thing that attacked me, but this matter has become a knot in my heart, and I secretly decided to come back another day and during the day to find out.
I continued to walk towards the location of the hydropower station in my memory for a short while, and the buildings began to appear in front of me, so I took a closer look! It was originally the guard post of the hydropower station, but it was already desolate and unpopular.
After entering the hydropower station, I still relied on analysis and judgment to identify the location of the lights that had been turned on before, and while looking for it, I also gently called "fat man, fat man".
But I didn't find the stairs to the second floor after a few rounds, and just when I decided to give up, I suddenly vaguely saw an orange-yellow light not far away, and the light was slowly moving towards me, looking like someone was carrying a lamp, but I don't know if it was Dachangtong or an undercover visitor? So I didn't dare to startle the snake, but slowly and secretly lurked in the direction of the light.
When I approached the light, I could vaguely see that it was Daechangtong, but because the environment was too dark, my visual discrimination was limited, so I didn't dare to say for sure.
Before I could speak, the man with the lantern suddenly noticed me, and rushed over in an instant, and without saying a word, he waved his stick at me, and with a ruthless and fast move, he aimed it at my heavenly spirit cover.
Seeing this, I immediately moved my body to the side, dodging this fatal stick, "Da ......" I just dodged, and when I opened my mouth to call Dachangtong, the lantern man had already swung a stick at my temple, which is self-defense? It's just going to kill people. I quickly squatted down on my knees, and after the stick brushed my hair, I immediately reached out and grabbed the hand of the lantern man holding the stick, and then twisted his wrist, and when his stick hit the ground, I kicked him in the popliteal fossa.
"Ah! - "The lantern bearer knelt down on one knee in response, and I was 100% sure that it was Dachang Tong, "Dachang Tong!" Why do you want my life? ”
"Detective? It's you! After Dachangtong was surprised, he immediately begged, "Brother detective, it hurts!" Pain! Let me go! ”
After I released Dachangtong, Dachangtong got up, rubbed his wrist, and flattered, "Brother! You're really good at it, alas! Are you private investigators so good? ”
"It depends on who's going to do it!" After I replied casually, I followed up and asked, "Alas! What the hell is going on with you kid? You've just been ruthless enough. ”
"Hey, hey! Elder brother! You really don't know, my life was almost lost just now, I was scared, out of fear that's why I hit so hard. Dachangtong was panicked, his tone was exaggerated, his face was not good at all under the light, he looked timid, and he seemed to be really frightened.
"You make it clear, why did you almost die?" Under my questioning, Dachang calmed down, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Just now when I came back with the lamp, I found that you were missing, so I knew that you had come to this hydropower station, so I followed."
As soon as I came in, I saw a black shadow swaying past me, and I didn't see what the black shadow was in the dark environment, and suddenly, I was hit by a force that came from nowhere, and before I could react, there was already a cold, I don't know what thing was choking my throat, and just when I was out of breath, the thing that choked my throat ran away inexplicably. ”
Dachangtong stopped at this point, mysteriously took the lamp and looked around the gloomy and quiet darkness, and then approached my ear and said in a strange way, "I'm afraid it's a ghost!" After saying that, he shuddered to himself.
I wondered, "Aren't you carrying a lamp, why don't you see what's approaching you?" ”
Da Changtong frowned, and his expression changed, "My brother! You don't know, that thing can be fast and fast, I'm so scared that I don't want it, how can I pay attention to what it is! ”
After hearing this, I secretly scolded in my heart: "Bai is so big and three coarse." ”
But then again, could the black shadow that sneaked up on Dachangtong be the same thing that sneaked up on me earlier? Why doesn't it seem to kill us? It seems that this abandoned hydropower station is really as the hexagram of the needleless compass says, the door of death! There is a murderous motive hidden in the shadows.
"Dude! What do you think? Seeing that I was silent, Dachang gently pushed me.
I should be "nothing?" Analyze the problem! ”
Da Changtong looked at me with admiration and admiration, and then said "Oh" after a long response, "What a professional feeling?" What did you analyze? ”
"Not yet!" I immediately asked, "Daechang Tong!" Can you find the room where the lights just came on? ”
Daechangtong raised the light, looked left and right, as if recalling the route, and after a moment said "Okay!" Dude! You come with me. As he spoke, he cautiously moved forward with the faint light.
When passing through a landslide, Dachang Tong stopped, shone the lamp in his hand to a large depression in the ground, and said, "Brother! Look at this, there was originally a staircase that went straight to the second floor, but then for some unknown reason the ground here sank in, and the staircase collapsed. ”
Dachangtong raised the light as he spoke, and shone upward, "Brother! That's all we have to do now. ”
I took advantage of the light in Dachangtong's hand to look up, and found that there were one or two ladders left after the staircase collapsed on the second floor, and then Dachangtong patted me on the shoulder, "Brother, come!" You step on my shoulder. As he spoke, he was still holding his hands on the wall, half-squatting.
Since the staircase to the second floor is built along the wall, it is almost three meters high, which is not difficult for me to parkour as a runner.
I patted Dachangtong, who was half-squatting against the wall, "You get up and go aside." ”
Dachangtong quickly saw what I wanted to do, and when he got up, he asked in a suspicious tone, "Brother!" Are you sure? Don't think twice about considering my approach. ”
Just as Dachangtong was speaking, I had already taken two steps back, and then one ran and quickly stepped on the wall twice, and one flew to the gap on the second floor. After I got Dachang Tong up, Dachang Tong came up and was full of praise for my skills just now, even applauded, but I didn't pay much attention to him, because my mind is not on his words now, Dachang Tong straightened out his clothes, picked up the lamp, and was about to leave, suddenly! His eyes revealed fear, his eyes suddenly widened, his mouth was wide open, and he couldn't make a sound for a long time.
I subconsciously turned my head when I saw his expression, but it was empty, so how could I explain Dachangtong's frightened expression? "Dachang Tong! What are you doing? I asked as soon as I turned around.
"Just ...... Just now I saw a dark shadow floating through the window, and it was floating! Dachangtong also deliberately emphasized the floating word.
After I made sure that there was nothing again, I asked Dachangtong seriously, "Are you sure you saw it?" Not dazzling? ”
"It's true!" His timidity could be felt in Dachangtong's tone.
I looked at Dachangtong's uncomfortable expression and asked, "I said, why do you dare to come with me when you are so timid, why don't you wait for me on the boat?" ”
After hearing this, Dachang immediately defended himself: "Brother! You are wrong, I'm not timid, do you know that there are two main aspects of people's fear, one is the fear of the unknown, and the other is the fear of knowing the other party's strength, I belong to the second type, because the evil things in this place are not something I can explain to you in a few words, and as for me, I came because I want to learn some skills from you, I like detectives. ”
"You kid! Kung Fu If you have half the strength of your mouth, you don't have any fear, okay! No matter how evil it is here, as long as you listen to me, it's fine, and I don't dare to blow anything else, but I've seen a lot of bizarre and weird things. With that, I asked Dachangtong to lead the way in front.
After walking for a while, I arrived at the place, this is a room with no door, and it is black inside, if it is not for the lamp in Dachangtong's hand, this room can be said to be out of sight.
Dachangtong carried the lamp and went in first, I followed closely, and before I took a few steps, Dachangtong seemed to have been hit by something and made an "oops" sound, so I touched my head.
Through the light of Cheong-tong, I could faintly see what hit his head and looked like a shoeed foot, which was in front of my eyes
I couldn't see clearly, so I immediately snatched the lamp from Dachangtong's hand and shone it above my feet.
Immediately I was startled by what was under the light, it was a face, a man's face, with his neck crooked, his face was pale with iron blue, his eyes were so wide that he was about to grab the frame, and he had a hemp rope tied around his neck, this was a corpse, a hanging corpse.
Dachangtong was startled by this scene, "Oops! Mother, I scared Lao Tzu to death, and I almost didn't scare my soul away. ”
After I found the hanging corpse, I asked Dachang Tong to turn on the light, and as soon as the light was turned on, the whole room was in full view, and then I saw that the hanging corpse was none other than the undercover visitor I was following!
