Chapter 702: Ghost Sounds
Qing Yazi shook his flashlight, constantly dispelling the darkness around him, while Lao Wen kept hitting the beam on the pile of corpses.
I cautiously approached the pile and grabbed the head of a living corpse to take a closer look.
This guy seemed to be able to feel the temperature on my hand, his scalp trembled twice, and his eyes rolled, but it seemed to have almost lost its strength, and it couldn't make much movement.
No wonder I just felt that the heads of these living corpses were one size smaller than ordinary people, their jaws seemed to have been forcibly torn off, and there were very large lacerations on both sides of their cheeks, because there was no chin, and the loose throats could be seen at a glance, and the remaining half of the upper lip was also turned up, revealing a row of long teeth.
Old Wen hit the light on the face of the living corpse, and I found that the wound on the side of its face was still covered with blood, and the blood was fresh, and it was sliding along the edge of the wound.
Putting the living corpses down in my hand, I took a closer look at the others, each of which looked the same, and on their wounds, there were waves of flowing blood.
This indicates that the wound is new.
Qing Yazi walked over and glanced at it, frowned and said, "These things have to live for sixty or seventy years." ”
I nodded, "They must be the Japanese who rushed out of the surface in the first place." I remember that the diary said that after the heavy rain, almost everything in the valley disappeared, and only that Nakamura Shaosa remained. ”
"Well," Qing Yazi nodded, "That's exactly how it was written." ”
I also turned on my flashlight and swept forward, and about ten meters in front of me, there was a second pile of corpses, and there were also seven or eight corpses piled up in that place.
The ground between the two piles of corpses was covered in blood, some had dried up, some were still fresh.
"These living corpses have all had their jaws and tongues plucked out alive," and then Qing Yazi spoke again: "This place is completely like a tongue-pulling hell." ”
I said, "That Nakamura Shaosa is probably the executioner in the tongue-pulling hell, he should be walking back and forth on this level, be careful." ”
As I spoke, I held the trigger of my rifle in one hand and the flashlight and the butt of my gun in the other, and walked cautiously with my gun in my hand. The old man and the green cliff also took a light step, and walked slowly behind me.
In the folk description of tongue pulling hell, it is often believed that in this layer of hell, there are some ghost pawns who are responsible for execution, and whenever a guilty person enters the hell, they will use pliers to tear the other party's tongue out of the mouth, and the tortured person is miserable, because after the tongue is pulled out, when a gust of karmic wind blows, the wound will heal, and a new tongue will grow, and then they will be caught by the ghost pawn and pull out the tongue again, and so on, and so on, and they will not be liberated for tens of billions of years.
The wounds on the faces of the living corpses are fresh, but they have been around for more than sixty years, and I suspect that they should be like ghosts in the hell of tongue pulling, with new flesh growing on their faces every once in a while, and the wounds will heal, and then they will wait for the next round of punishment.
And Nakamura Shaosa, as the tongue cutter back then, is likely to have become a ghost pawn who was executed in the tongue pulling hell.
Every time we passed by the corpses, the living corpses would automatically avoid them, leaving a way for us.
It seems that these ugly-looking living corpses don't seem to be a threat, but I don't know why, and the more I see them actively avoiding them, the more apprehensive I feel in my heart.
Entering the second shadow area, the three of us turned on the flashlights and swept around, and found that the walls on both sides had become pitted, not at all like artificially built, but more like natural dissolution walls.
This promenade is supposed to be made by joining artificial tunnels and natural karst caves.
I don't know when it started, but a slight buzzing sound began to echo in my ears, and at first I thought it was a movement from the power station, but I didn't pay much attention to it. But as the movement became clearer, I couldn't help but pay attention to it.
At first, the humming sound became more and more pronounced, and later, other sounds appeared in the midst of this humming.
The sound of chaotic footsteps, the shouts of the Japanese, the sound of the locals shouting in dialects, the sound of shovels and chisels hitting the rock formations, several different sounds are intertwined, and one can't help but have the illusion that there are many people busy in this tunnel besides us.
My eardrums trembled suddenly, and my heart was also irritable, even if I forcibly purified my mind, I couldn't suppress this irritability.
Lao Wen also asked Qing Yazi with annoyance: "What's going on with these movements?" ”
"It's magnetic," Qing Yazi's tone was very calm: "The rock formations of the cave are magnetic, so it's like a tape, and the sounds that have appeared here can be recorded." When it rains on a cloudy day and the earth's crust is turbulent, the recorded sound can also be heard from the rock formations. ”
I heard Lao Wen continue: "Is there still a volcano in this place, and the earth's crust will be turbulent?" ”
"There should be no volcanoes. The reason we hear so much movement is either because it's raining outside, or because something is moving in the rock formations. Qing Yazi said as he picked up his flashlight and hit the beam at a stone wall on the left.
I followed the light and saw that there was a vertical crack more than two meters long on the stone wall, which was long enough, but the width was about the same as a slap.
I frowned and looked at Qingyazi, who nodded at me.
Probably because there was no tacit understanding, to be honest, I didn't particularly understand what he nodded, so I could only roughly guess that he might mean that there was something moving in the crack in the stone.
I turned the muzzle of the gun and pointed the light at the crack in the stone along with the muzzle, but Qingyazi shook his head at me: "That thing has gone far?" ”
"The thing?"
"Well, when I came over just now, I vaguely saw a shadow trying to come out of the crack in the stone, but probably because I found it, it retracted again."
Along the way, I have been observing the surrounding situation with the quicksand of the Qi Sea, but I didn't expect the shadow in the stone crevice.
I asked again, "What kind of shadow?" ”
Qing Yazi thought for a moment, and then said with some uncertainty: "It may be a person." ”
It's no wonder that his attitude is ambiguous, after all, the stone crack is only the width of a palm, and it is almost impossible for humans to get out of there, but humans can't do it, and evil corpses don't necessarily can't do it.
Ever since we saw that crack in the stone, the three of us had become more cautious, barely daring to make a sound when the soles of our feet hit the ground.
The noise continues to invade our eardrums, Qing Yazi is really a person with a pure state of mind, he can't see much mood fluctuations on his face, Lao Wen seems to be a little timid, often see him shrink his head, and cold sweat breaks out on his forehead, I am now full of irritability, as if the whole body is ignited, I can't wait to find someone to fight, defeat the fire.
This place seems to be filled with a strange force, magnifying the shortcomings of me and Lao Wen more than ten times.
Rustle –
There was a sudden rush of friction behind me, and I was shocked, turned around quickly, aimed the muzzle of the gun at the sound source, and pressed the trigger as soon as possible.
The gunshots of the 38 Da Gaier are not very neat, and after the bullets are fired, there is a very strange tail sound, and the whole movement sounds similar to "horn goo", or "Bagou".
Even the sound of gunshots, which was not crisp enough, could make the anger in my heart soar a little.
The bullet hit a crack in the wall, and the light went through, and this time I saw half a shadow squeezing out of the gap, but with the sound of the gunshot, it quickly drilled back again.
I wanted to catch up and take a look, but Qingyazi stopped me: "If not, don't move." ”
The shadow has just retracted into the crack in the stone, I go over now, maybe I can pull it out, Qingyazi always said don't move rashly, don't move rashly, in my opinion, this is a waste of time.
But then Qing Yazi said again: "It may just want to lead you over." ”
As soon as these words came out, I was also groaned in my heart, I was too frizzy just now, and I didn't even take this into account.
I let out a sullen breath, trying to vent some of the anger in my heart, but it didn't work.
Qing Yazi glanced at Lao Wen, then looked at me and said, "What's the matter with you two, I felt that something was wrong with you two just now." ”
Lao Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead and responded for me: "Those strange movements seem to affect the mind, from the time it appeared to the present, my heart has been up and down, and my palms are sweating." ”
I held back my anger and said to Qing Yazi: "Lao Chen, you should take the lead." ”
Qing Yazi nodded and silently walked to the front of the team.
I walked at the back, constantly sweeping around, and now we were in a well-lit area, but I still didn't feel at ease, and I had to keep hitting the beams on the stone walls on both sides to feel a little more at ease.
Three meters away, there is a shadow area through which you can reach the staircase that leads to the next floor. I have a vague hunch that something on this level won't let us go down so easily, and now I just hope it will appear soon.
During this period, I was worried that the light would make the guy daunted, so I deliberately did not shine the light on the shadow area, but leaned on the vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea, and carefully watched the movement on the stone walls on both sides.
There was another crack in the stone wall on the left-hand side, this gap was about half a meter wide and up to three meters long, and as soon as I found it, I subconsciously poured my attention into it. Although I also know that it is obviously unwise to put all my energy in one place in this situation, I really can't control myself.
As soon as I passed by the stone crevice, I saw from the vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea, there was something in the east deep in the gap, that thing was indeed very human-like, at this time he was twisting his chest and back, trying to rub out of the stone crevice, I deliberately slowed down my pace, calculating how far it would be to come out.
When it was still half a meter away from drilling out of the stone crevice, I immediately let go of Tengyun Step, and reached to the stone crevice with a dodge, and quickly reached into my hand, grabbing something that felt very rough, and the temperature emanating from it was about the same as the body temperature of a human body.
