16. Interlocking
Zhang Ziang said: "This is what I later found out after investigation, but as far as I know, this is not the original station of the military, it was moved from somewhere, but it only moved here for more than ten years, and then there was an accident, and then it was completely abandoned, and then the relevant departments in order to hide the traces of the military stationed here, so all the traces of the military stationed here were destroyed, and this village was built." ”
I listened to Zhang Ziang say this, and I felt as if I was listening to the Arabian Nights, and it took a while to squeeze out a few people: "The military? ”
Zhang Ziang said: "Do you know what I'm talking about? ”
I shook my head, completely unable to keep up with Zhang Ziang's train of thought, Zhang Ziang saw me shaking his head, so he changed his tone and said: "At present, I can't tell you too much, after all, many of them are still confidential, and there are some things, I don't understand whether you need to know, I just want you to know that at the beginning of the military station, all the 121 military personnel disappeared overnight, and no one even saw them walk out of here, and when they came in to investigate, all the traces of life were still there, but the people were gone, There was also no trace of a large number of people being transferred away, as if they had disappeared out of thin air. ”
I listened to Zhang Ziang say this, and I didn't dare to come out, Zhang Ziang continued: "But how could people disappear out of thin air, and finally found traces, so the investigators found a lot of toads around this village, I don't know why, this is a mountain, not a pool, but there are a lot of toads infested, so the investigators at that time felt that this phenomenon was very strange, so they went to find the source of the toad, and then found an unknown tombstone outside the military station, they dug up along the tombstone, It turned out that there was no coffin or anything like that, and it was completely empty underneath, as if there was only this tombstone, and these toads grew and crawled out from under this tombstone, and everyone thought it was strange at the time, how did the toad come out of it? So they mobilized the machinery that could be mobilized, and when they dug down to 20 meters, they found a deep hole, and they used effective technical means to probe it, and found that the deep hole was conservative 100 meters deep. ”
I was shocked: "A hundred meters deep? ”
Zhang Ziang said: "Yes, at that time, the deep hole itself was already about 20 meters deep from the ground, and it was all loose soil, it was difficult for people to go down, and everyone at that time basically had a firm idea, the toad crawled out from below, but why the toad, everyone died in vain." Until the evening, someone in the investigation team had an accident, and it was fine at night, but at night, this person began to be wrong, as if the whole person was out of control, and the personnel with him found that he was standing in a daze, which was very scary, and then found that he seemed to be very uncomfortable, and then he knelt on the ground and vomited, and after getting up and looking, he saw that all that came out of his mouth were toads, and his body was covered with fist-sized blisters, from the appearance at first glance, Just like a toad, and this person with him was soon infected, and immediately the body also underwent exactly the same changes, just one night, almost the entire investigation team was almost wiped out, and more than half of the people died because of this situation, and the whole death process looked very bizarre and scary, the common feature was that the vomiting toad, the body was covered with abscesses like blisters. The survivors never dared to touch anything here, and left the place overnight, and when the second team came in again, everything was gone, including the nameless tombstones that had been dug up, and they were also filled back intact, and those who died were completely gone. ”
I listened to Zhang Ziang tell this and asked him, "When did this happen?" ”
Zhang Ziang said: "This happened 20 years ago, that is, the first year you remember coming here. ”
When I heard Zhang Ziang say this timeline, I immediately felt a little surprised, how could there be such a coincidence, I said: "That is to say, in the second year of the accident here, Team Fan took me here, but ......"
Zhang Ziang said: "The second investigation team that entered Mapo Town at that time was the predecessor of our investigation team, but before this investigation team, there was a more secret level, but we became one of the team members, it was indeed due to the toad corpse case in Mapo Town that year, and then I slowly began to find a problem, that is, the members of our investigation team are more or less related to Mapo Town, as if ......."
When he said this, Zhang Ziang suddenly stopped talking, I knew what he wanted to say, but I didn't seem to know, I said: "You mean it's a conspiracy!" ”
Zhang Ziang didn't speak, just looked at me, and said: "I've been thinking about a question, the most legendary figure in Mapo Town is the person Bald Leper, and you listen to his name, Bald Leprosy, why do you call this name?" ”
I already understood what Zhang Ziang was trying to say, and I said, "You mean that his name may be related to his physical appearance, that is, he was also infected with the situation in the toad corpse case, but he survived!" ”
Zhang Ziang said: "What was the follow-up of this case later, I never saw it again, I just saw some simple records of this case sporadically in a secret archive room of the investigation team, but according to my speculation, the reason why these people will become toad corpses, I suspect that these toads themselves are poisonous, and they can even parasitize, they lay eggs on people's bodies, but people at that time were unaware, or used toad eggs in other ways. It is the growth in the body that causes this phenomenon. ”
I listened to a bit of an eerie sense of horror, so I shifted the topic to the bald leprosy, and I followed Zhang Ziang's train of thought and asked, "So you suspect that the bald leper is the survivor of the first investigation team?" ”
Zhang Ziang said: "Not only is he a survivor, but he is even an important member of the second investigation team later, but something happened later, which caused him to hide something in Mapo Town, so there is this reason why the ambush team asked you to come to find it. ”
I couldn't help but gasp when I heard this, things have become so complicated, and I still have no clue or thinking, some things I don't even dare to think about, and I don't dare to think about it, because this fear is more terrible than death.
I looked at the grave in front of me and asked Zhang Ziang, "What about this grave?" ”
Zhang Ziang said: "So this is another mystery, what we need to figure out is why the Fan team made it an archive, and the person we met at the beginning, it seems that he came to give you the key, and the corpses that died in the basement, and now it seems that since there have never been villagers in Mapo Town, then what happened to these corpses?" ”
I said, "Now it seems that if Mapo Town deliberately arranged some people to pretend to be villagers, then these people are definitely not ordinary people, then the question is, why did they die en masse?" Second, if there were never any villagers in Mapo Town, then who were these people and why were the bodies here? ”
I thought it was the answer, but I found that I had entered a deeper mystery, and this mystery began to scare me, and I felt the fear and horror that followed my curiosity for the first time.
I asked Zhang Ziang, "Then are we going to dig up this tomb and see what is inside?" ”
Zhang Ziang shook his head, he said: "The toad corpse case is a good lesson, the wisest thing to do now is not to easily touch the things that you don't understand here, but what I can confirm is that since this place is sealed with stainless steel, it is either something left by the military at the beginning, or it is something that was preserved later, no matter which one it is, it is obviously a dangerous object that cannot be easily touched." ”
When I heard Zhang Ziang say this, I panicked for a moment and said, "Then let's go out quickly." ”
Zhang Ziang stood still and didn't move, he looked at the tombstone, holding his chin with his hand, as if he was thinking about something, I don't know what he was looking at, but Zhang Ziang said: "What if the answer is not inside, but outside?" ”
I asked, "What's outside?" ”
Zhang Ziang said: "Have you noticed why this tomb is facing away from the door? ”
I didn't think about it, so I said, "Maybe I don't want people to see the words on the tombstone." ”
Zhang Ziang said: "No, someone has been here before us. ”
I exclaimed, "What?!" ”
