Chapter 32: The Infant Corpse
Lin Su replied: "According to my understanding, it should mean that the envoy will hide in each different department, become the henchman of the leader in that department, and then use some psychological tactics to let those leaders unconsciously complete what the envoy wants them to do, and once the identity of the envoy is exposed, they will be killed, if they need to accept new orders or meet with people who are also envoys, the pattern in this night pearl is their code." Based on the above text, I suspect that the ruler of this underground is ostensibly one person, but in fact there may be two, one in the light and one in the dark. ”
Liu Yang was stunned when he heard this, and sighed: "I didn't expect the water under this ground to be so deep, how can these powerful bigwigs play as if they are playing." ”
Kong Xian fell into deep thought, he frowned, I couldn't see what was going on in his mind, but I remembered that he had told me not to trust anyone, not even him.
I took the Night Pearl and held it in my hand, reminding, "Don't think about anything else, if we can't get out, even if we know more secrets, we will eventually be buried deep underground." Let's go, we don't have time to run out. ”
After speaking, I asked Lin Su again: "Do you remember how you got here?" ”
Lin Su shook his head and replied, "My mind is broken in the corpse field. ”
Kong Xian analyzed: "That corpse accumulation place must not be far from here, let's find a way to find it." ”
Lin Su shook his head when he heard this, and said resistantly: "Don't, don't go there, it's too terrible there, there can't be a way out, we will all die there." ”
Kong Xian laughed after hearing this, and he said, "Do you think the ghost will hang you here?" Such a big bone pit, are they afraid of a corpse like you? ”
"And what do you mean?" I asked.
Kong Xian then said to Lin Su: "There must be an exit there, where you haven't found out!" They didn't actually kill you, but threw you to this place, perhaps to fend you for yourself, and more likely to make us find you. ”
Lin Su was stunned, and she asked weakly, "You mean those villagers did it on purpose?" Just to keep us from going out? It can't be, they can't be without dying! ”
I was puzzled and said, "Yes, this is not scientific, what is the purpose of them trapping us in this underground?" ”
Kong Xian smiled, but said, "Maybe it's just to let us bury them, but you don't want us to die too happily, so you play a horror game with us." ”
I snorted and scolded, "You seem to be kidding me." ”
Speaking of which, I asked Kong Xian again seriously: "Master Jin, if you are unlucky, will you escort us out, or will you kill us to accompany you?" ”
"Hmm......" Kong Xian pretended to think for a while and replied: "I will definitely escort Lin Su and Da Yang out, as for you...... You can't just let it go, or who will I go to? ”
I even outlined the shape of staring at him with eye wrinkles, and said in my heart, if my sister has good teeth, I will bite you to death now.
Since Kong Xian said that Lin Su and the others encountered a dangerous corpse pit and there was a way out, we also decided to find a way to go there and have a look, anyway, Liu Yang and I have "weapons" in our hands, and we are not afraid that it is a human or a ghost. It's that Liu Yang is a little ridiculous now, there is only a pair of pants left on his body, and the axe and scimitar he brought out have no place to hang, so he can only carry it in his hand. Lin Su avoided him vigorously, for fear of looking at him more.
We didn't know exactly where to go back to the bone pit, and Lin Su didn't remember, so we had to go to the fork in the crack first.
It was still Kong Xian who opened the way with the Night Pearl, Lin Su was behind him, and then Liu Yang, I broke off. With our goal in mind, we quickly reached a fork in the road and chose the older marked road that we hadn't taken before.
This night Mingzhu is more reliable than my headlamp that is out of power, and the brightness makes me feel that my vision is very clear at the back. I deliberately glanced at the two markers one more time, and suddenly I was a little puzzled. Although these two marks are the new and the old as Kong Xian said, they are exactly the same regardless of shape or length, as if the new mark was written by someone deliberately imitating the old mark. Is it to deliberately trick us, or is it so that we can find Lin Su hanging over there?
This side of the road is not as easy to walk as the other side, and the sides of the stone wall are too slippery, and if you don't pay attention to one of them, you will slide down, so we have to slow down.
"Mumu, be careful in the back."
It may have been too long since anyone spoke, Lin Su was a little worried about me, so he shouted in front.
I promised in the back, "I know, you should pay attention too." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, he didn't know how to knock over Liu Yang's vinegar jar, and said with a sour mouth: "Lin Su, you're wrong, I'm also behind you, why don't you let me pay attention, I know that I care about your Mumu." ”
Lin Su was amused by him, and said with a smile: "Are you so strong that you are afraid of falling?" ”
Liu Yang said "hehe" twice.
I saw that he heard Lin Su praise him for being strong, and he was very proud, so he was ready to tease him and pour cold water on him. Unexpectedly, before the words came out, Kong Xian at the front actually stopped and whispered: "Quiet." ”
We all tugged at each other and quickly quieted down.
Kong Xian whispered again: "We have something in front of us, everyone pay attention." ”
I'm almost going from fear to anger, it's fucking one step at a time, and it's very disturbing. I had a long knife in my waist, and it was even more hard, which really me off, and it was a big deal to die.
Lin Su was a little scared and asked in a low voice, "What is it?" Can you see clearly? Isn't it dusty? ”
Kong Xian was silent for a moment and replied, "I'm afraid not, like a baby." ”
When he said this, my whole body instantly became nervous, and I immediately remembered the row of baby footprints I saw by the lake before. If this thing is alive, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with. Infant spirits and female ghosts have always been synonymous with horror, and the resentment is extremely heavy, and the little "weapon" we brought is okay to deal with the fire pine nuts, if you want to deal with the ghosts without a physical body, it is estimated that it is not as effective as the black rope in Liu Yang's hand.
"Is there any movement?" I asked softly.
Kong Xian whispered: "There is no movement, maybe it is a corpse, let's slow down and go around the side." ”
After he finished speaking, he slowly walked a few steps forward, Lin Su was still very scared and didn't dare to move, Liu Yang comforted in a low voice: "It's okay, isn't there a Jin Ye to open the way, if he has three long and two short, we will run away quickly." ”
I said in my heart, you are really righteous, and you are not afraid that Lin Su will look down on you if you are so happy.
Sure enough, Lin Su's voice was full of tears, and he asked, "Then I want to have three long and two short, are you also running away quickly?" ”
"Eh, you can't say that." Liu Yang hurriedly defended: "Can you compare with Jin Ye?" No matter what, I have to protect you well. ”
Lin Su still didn't believe him, so I picked up in the back: "Lin Su, you can go with confidence, I will help block Dayang, if there is danger, you will slide down, and I will push Dayang over to top the thunder." ”
Lin Su smiled, his heart relaxed a lot, and began to move forward slowly. I climbed up a little and saw that Kong Xian at the front had already walked some distance.
About half a meter in front of him, there was a hanging thing, curled up like a newborn baby, whose skin was blue-purple under the illumination of the night pearl.
Kong Xian's footsteps were slow, and the baby was prostrate on one side of the stone wall, and he needed to carefully stick to the stone wall on the other side. We didn't dare to breathe when we watched the atmosphere behind, and Lin Su stopped and watched after walking a few steps.
I saw that the infant corpse was motionless, just like Lin Su we saw before, but it was a little different, its head was attached to the stone wall, and its hands were held in its arms.
When we saw that Kong Xian was only three or five centimeters away from the baby's corpse, our hearts all rose to our throats, as if it was ourselves who was in danger.
When he walked past the baby's corpse, we were all relieved. But thinking that I still have to go from there, this breath was raised again.
In order to give us enough light, Kong Xian walked forward for about a meter before stopping, and then turned around and used the Night Pearl to illuminate us.
Lin Su began to walk very slowly, very reluctant to approach the infant corpse, as soon as she reached the side of the infant corpse, fear made her rush up with full horsepower, bypassing the infant corpse and throwing herself into Kong Xian's arms.
After the two of us, we couldn't help but feel a little relieved, thinking that that thing might be a simple corpse, and it wouldn't cheat the corpse or suddenly jump up and kill someone.
Liu Yang walked a lot bolder, perhaps because he decided that the thing would not be dangerous, or maybe in order to save face in front of Lin Su, he stepped past the baby corpse in a few steps.
I looked at it as my turn, but I couldn't help but be a little nervous, and I was about to lift my legs forward, but I suddenly felt that the baby corpse seemed to move!
I raised my hand and rubbed my eyes vigorously, afraid that I was too nervous and hallucinating. After rubbing it twice, and then looking at the baby's corpse, it actually looked up and smiled weirdly at me, revealing a row of teeth crisscrossed like steel nails.
Liu Yang and Kong Xian didn't notice the change, and they all whispered in front of me to hurry up. I was stunned, not knowing how to react at all, except that my heart felt like it was being pinched by a hand, and I was even beating carefully.
Perhaps because he felt that my expression was different, Kong Xian reminded Liu Yang in a low voice, "There is a problem, pay attention." ”
As soon as Kong Xian's words fell, I saw that the infant corpse suddenly bounced, and it had seven or eight centimeter-long barbed claws on its hands, and it rushed towards me with the stone walls on both sides.
It's fast, and I'm not slow, and my right hand reflexively pulls out a long knife from my waist and holds it horizontally in front of me. As soon as it reaches my attack range, I quickly wield my long knife and prepare to fight it in a big battle with the Forbidden Peak.
I forgot how bad the environment I was in was and how unbalanced I was when I made a big move. I didn't have a barb claw in my hand, so I couldn't hold on to the stone wall, and I almost slipped off it.
While I was struggling, the baby corpse attacked even more violently, and instantly jumped down and hugged my head, and the sharp claw hook directly made my face hellokitty. I was in pain and was about to stab me down, but Liu Yang's axe arrived first, grazing my scalp and slashing at the baby's corpse.
When it saw that the tide was turning, it let go of my head and jumped backwards. I turned my head to see that the head of this thing had been cut off in half with Liu Yang's axe, and I don't know what messy liquid was dripping down inside.
I looked at Liu Yang in fear for a while and said, "If you have an axe, it's me." ”
