Chapter 76: Chu Chu appeared
When I got closer, I saw that the shadows were all houses, built of wooden planks, hollowed out at the bottom, and then supported by half-meter-high wooden piles, somewhat similar to the local stilted buildings, which looked like a village, the ground was paved with river sand, and many houses had collapsed.
How not to be amazed not to find a village in the cave in front of you.
Different from Zhangjiakou, the fog bone tribe here really lives in the cave, and looking at the size of this ruin, it is completely enough to accommodate thousands of people, even much larger than Qiantang Village.
Chu Ye couldn't see the end at a glance, there was a strong mysterious aura on the ruins, looking at the scale of this village, it was likely to be the base camp of the Fog Bone Clan back then, but I didn't expect that such a tribe existed in such a rural realm.
Applejack paused for a moment at the entrance of the village and walked inside, there was a main road in the village with drainage outlets on both sides, and the village was already very developed for civilization at that time.
Chu Ye stepped on the slippery and greasy river sand, the fear in his heart was spreading, the village did not know how many thousands of years it had existed, looking at the quiet houses, he always felt a breath of death.
Some terrifying legends about Jigongling began to pop up in his mind, Chu Ye didn't believe them, but these stories had already been deeply rooted in his consciousness since he was a child, and when he arrived in the village in front of him, he was suddenly infinitely magnified, making Chu Ye always feel unexplained uneasy.
Chu Ye really wanted to talk to Ajie and dispel his fear, but thinking of the scene when he killed the big five and the little five, he swallowed what he wanted to say again. At that moment, Applejack paused, and then ran quickly.
Chu Ye couldn't figure out the situation and was stunned, thinking that Applejack was going to get rid of him, but he was angry when he suddenly saw a red shadow flickering in front of Applejack.
Chu Ye is naturally no stranger to this red shadow, he saw him once when he was at the base, and later after seeing the big five and the little five, Chu Ye thought that the red shadow was a hallucination that he had caused because of his nervousness and the story of Ajie before he came up, so he didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect it to appear again now.
Chu Ye hurriedly caught up, his body was wet with cold sweat, and the red shadow was fluttering, and it was in this kind of ghost village that had disappeared for thousands of years, and no one believed that it was not a ghost.
Applejack was really bold enough to chase after the red shadow, Chu Ye was worried about what happened to the red shadow, so he gritted his teeth and had to follow, and the red shadow led them around the village, and it didn't take long for him to suddenly get into a house.
Ajie didn't follow in again, Chu Ye also stopped, the house in front of him was different from the surroundings, the area was much larger, it was very magnificent, and there was a wall built around the house with stones, but the stones had already collapsed.
What's really weird is that the house seems to be being repaired, and many of the walls are nailed with new wooden boards, and the otherwise imposing room looks like a patched ragged garment.
There are also a lot of rectangular planks in the yard, one of which has a saw on it, and there are plastic buckets, basins and other things, which shows one thing, this house is still inhabited.
Chu Ye felt a little creepy, this house structure is not a modern style, looking at its scale, it must have been a place where the powerful people in the village lived back then, but at this time, there were still people living in it, living in this kind of ghost place, how strong a nerve that person must be.
What is the relationship between the Red Shadow and the people who live inside? Hongying's appearance seems to be a woman, Chu Ye inexplicably thought of the missing second aunt, could it be her? Or is it her ghost?
Chu Ye didn't dare to think deeply, and at this time, Ajie turned his head to look at Chu Ye and asked, "Can you get in?" ”
Seeing Ajie take the initiative to speak, Chu Ye couldn't help but be a little flattered, and said calmly: "Lead us here, whether it is a human or a ghost, we must not have any good intentions, I think it is better to go." ”
Chu Ye retreated, but Applejack had a complicated look in his eyes and said, "I've remembered most things, this village actually has nothing to do with me, I just want you to confirm one thing." ”
"Me?" Chu Ye pointed at himself, "What are you kidding, let me confirm something?" What does it have to do with me? ”
Chu Ye's tone was not very good, and he still couldn't forgive Ajie for what he did to the big five and the little five.
"Don't tell me you haven't thought of the identity of the red figure yet, I'm chasing her in front, although I can't see her appearance clearly, but it's definitely a woman."
"You mean my second aunt? It couldn't be her, she wouldn't live in this place. Chu Ye shook his head and denied it, he had thought of this relationship a long time ago, but he didn't dare to accept it.
"Scared?"
Applejack laughed mockingly, and when she saw that Chu Ye was showing signs of anger, she didn't say any more, and walked into the courtyard and then stepped onto the steps of the house.
The wooden plank squeaked loudly, stimulating Chu Ye's nerves in the dark and quiet environment. In the blink of an eye, Applejack is already inside the room, and his flashlight appears on the window.
Chu Ye kept suppressing his panic, he was afraid of ghosts, but now he was even more afraid of the truth hidden in this house, if it was really the second aunt...... Chu Ye was not ready to accept this fact.
"Give you one more minute, and we'll leave if you don't come in." Applejack shouted coldly inside.
Chu Ye stomped his feet, and finally walked in, the furnishings in the room were very simple, there were a few wooden stools and plastic stools, a cabinet made of wooden boards casually, there were several pairs of dishes and chopsticks in it, there was a charcoal stove in the middle, there were cutting boards, kitchen knives, towels and some daily necessities hanging on the nails on the wall, there was a table in the corner, there were a few magnetic cups on it, toothbrushes and toothpaste were all available, Chu Ye swept around, but became more and more panicked.
There is very little dust in the house, and it is relatively clean, indicating that there are still people living in it. Applejack pushed open the door of the room next to her, and as soon as she entered, she hurriedly shouted, "Come in." ”
Chu Ye was startled, and hurriedly went in, and as soon as he saw the scene inside, he was furious all over his body, and a cold air rushed from the center of his feet to the Tianling Gai.
This room was a bedroom, and on the right was a wooden bed, on which was lying a man, a skeleton to be exact. The red wedding dress worn by the skeleton lay quietly on the bed, extremely weird, Chu Ye and Applejack glanced at each other, and they both thought of the red shadow.
"It's a this time."
Chu Ye's voice trembled, with a bitter face, eager to run out of this house immediately, but Applejack had a calm face, walked to the corpse, and rummaged through something in a cabinet at the head of the bed.
"What are you looking for?"
Chu Ye stared at the skeleton with an indescribable panic in his heart, and at this time Ajie seemed to have found something, walked up to Chu Ye, handed him a photo, and said, "Look at whether you recognize this person." ”
As soon as Chu Ye saw the woman in the photo, he stood on the spot, and every place on his face was full of disbelief.
