Well, friends and family:

Needless to say, I'm not in the mood.

I was very sad and sad, but most of all I regretted it.

If I could, I would like to do it all over again, but that's also my wishful thinking.

If I'm not mistaken, it's a month after the previous letter, if you can find the letter I crushed under the rock. Of course, this letter may also be the last one, and I don't know if I will have a chance in the future, but I have no way back.

Yes, it's true that I've come to a dead end, but fortunately, I'm very calm, because the struggle is no longer useful, if you ask people what their biggest fear is, in fact, people's biggest fear is the unknown, then curiosity is the original sin of everything.

Now the situation is even worse than the last time, of course, all this is my own fault, I never know what it is to do what I can, obviously I don't have the ability, but I want to try, to challenge, to conquer, if a person has ambition may be a very good thing, but the premise is that you have the ability to match the ambition, but I have no ability at all, just a mediocre person who lives in a peaceful world. So much so that he allowed himself to go into danger again and again.

Last time, I finally came up with the right answer. With my eyes closed, I walked for about ten minutes, and I seemed to be able to clearly feel the cold in the middle, deepening it little by little, and most people might choose to retreat, but I had no chance to turn back, and I finally walked on.

The sense of direction deceives the eyes and senses, turning off all external senses and leaving it to fate, which is my last choice.

Then I came across a stone, or rather, touched a stone, square, and a little strange. Because I had my eyes closed, and then I opened them. The white stone seemed to mock my ignorance, and the touch in my hands was much colder than ice.

That's a stone, it's clearly a tombstone.

The blood was circulating rapidly at this moment, and it was directly coming from the door of my brain, and I felt like I was blinded, or rather frightened.

I've been walking back and forth here many times, but I never knew there was such a thing here, and my gaze slowly crossed the tombstones in front of me, where there were graves in sight, piled up one by one.

I knew that I might have encountered something, and when I didn't dare to act rashly, the mountain wind was whistling, and there seemed to be a few strange cries from the forest next to me from time to time, and I noticed that the scenery around me had changed when it had changed, and it was no longer the ravine I saw from time to time, but a black forest.

But before I could take a few steps out, I heard a strange sound behind me, hiss~hiss. It seems like the voice is very close to me.

I hurriedly turned around, and I didn't know when, there was a snake standing behind me.

Yes, standing, I'm not wrong, snakes can actually stand, but this generally means that they have entered an attack state, this is a snake with a pattern, and! I found out that this snake turned out to be the one I had seen before.

So, what do you do now?

This snake is very long, it should be close to two meters, the level in the forest, it should be considered the top of the food chain, I don't know how this snake ran behind me, but before, this snake should be halfway up the mountainside, this animal will divide its own territory, generally if there is nothing to do, the snake will not go such a long way.

That said, the snake could be problematic as well.

There are a lot of secrets hidden in the remote mountains and forests, there are naturally mountain spirits and ghosts, not to mention the words that circulate among human beings, there are five kinds of animals that are the most qualified to become spirits, these five animals are Hu Willow white yellow gray, respectively on behalf of Hu Xian fox, gray fairy mouse, yellow fairy weasel, white fairy hedgehog, willow fairy snake.

The qualifications of the snake itself are not bad, not to mention the existence of a white lady in folklore.

But none of this matters now, this is already a mortal situation, with such a snake in front of you and a pile of tombstones behind you. If it is a normal person, it is estimated that the choice that can be made at this moment is to turn back.

But I know that the pile of things in the back may be even more difficult, because the unknown is the most terrifying.

I don't know how fast the snake is, but when the snake in front of me seemed to be ready to attack, I waved the backpack behind me and knocked the snake away, but the snake bit on the backpack, and my backpack had to be abandoned like this.

I started to run as hard as I could, probably the fastest in the whole time, and without the weight of my backpack, I was much faster than before.

But I didn't dare to look behind me, maybe the snake was chasing me behind me, behind the snake, and that weird place, neither of these two could I afford to provoke.

Reading this, you may think that this is the danger I encountered, and that this is the danger I am in now, but you are wrong, the danger has not really begun, and what I encounter now and what I will encounter after are completely different concepts.

This timing is dominated by humans, because humans are strong, but although they belong to the same type of people, in fact, the most dangerous are humans.

I ran and ran and ran for about an hour, so much so that I was trembling as I stood and I guess I finally stopped.

I was in such a hurry that I forgot one thing, that is, this should be the direction I came from, I have been walking in a straight line, correspondingly, I will still walk back to the ravine between the two mountains.

However, this is not that place, and if the gaze can deceive the human eye, I dare not think that what I see is real now.

There's a small town in front of me?

I was a little surprised, but before I could lift my feet, I don't know when, the stinky snake actually ran in front of me again, and I didn't know how I got into this snake.

I don't doubt that the snake is faster than a man, because this is a mountain road, and the advantage of the snake is too great, but come to think of it, this snake is also quite clever, and did not chase me from behind, but crossed me and appeared in front of me.

But this time, I won't shy away, there is a small town in front, there will definitely be people in the town, this town may look a little old from a distance, but the town has a sign of people, this town is people, everything has passed since it passed here.

Well now!

I took out the folding knife from my body, this is my only weapon, the previous backpack has been thrown away, but I will not be afraid, I am afraid that I will not be able to solve anything, if I want to survive, I can only rush.

The snake opened its jaws and roared, but it didn't attack, and I stood quietly, gathering strength.

There's a town ahead, and I'm going to rush over it anyway!

It's dark and gloomy, that's all I know about the town in front of me, before I entered this town, I could have thought that this town might be pretty good, but when I actually walked into this town and saw it in person, I was quite disappointed.

The name of this town is Lugu Ancient Town, because I didn't bring a mobile phone, and I didn't have a map on my body, let alone open the Gaode map, I don't know which province of China this town belongs to, but it should not be too far from Yunnan, now I can say it, because I'm afraid that if I don't say it now, I won't have a chance in the future.

The first place I set off was naturally Xi'an, where I worked, and then I traveled a lot by train, and when I was in Ning'er County, Yunnan, I started to walk.

This town is not big, I took less than five minutes to go from the beginning to the end, there are not many people, it can even be said that there are quite few people, they are all some old, but I also met a few backpackers, backpackers and travelers, should be regarded as my current peers.

There is no hotel in the whole town, and there is no guest house, only a small hotel that I don't know how long it has been opened, but now, I can't be too picky, maybe you all think that I have too many small problems like this, and I am usually a very picky person, the most important thing is that my cleanliness may be a little heavy, mineral water is only willing to drink Nongfu Spring, and disposable chopsticks must be used when eating out with sterilized chopsticks, as long as a dish sticks to the tomatoes, I will not move again, and eating chili peppers is particularly serious, Even if you eat rice, you have to add chili peppers, otherwise you won't be able to eat it at all.

But you can rest assured now, during this time, I feel that I have grown a lot, those bad habits before, I have all changed, of course, there are still some small problems, but not too much, if I have the opportunity to go back, I will definitely be a new person.

But, now, there is no chance.

Little did I know that this town was the real source of all the danger.

When I first entered the town, the snake chased after me, but when I entered the town, I obviously felt a vibration up and down, and the premonition seemed to tell me that there was a great danger coming, and even the snake that followed behind me did not dare to enter the town.

At first, I was glad that it was probably because there were a lot of people here, but then I understood it all.

Animals are much more sensitive than humans, which may be nature, and humans have this ability, but it has gradually degraded in life.

I should have come to this place for help and comfort because humans are social animals, but I was wrong.

People are actually lonely, even if they live in a large group, human beings themselves are also lonely, even if they meet each other, but that loneliness will not be reduced a little. But people are vulnerable, and only in groups can they be protected.

Maybe it's because I'm from the north, but I don't feel much joy in this town.

The house is an old-fashioned kind of small single room, fifty a night, no air conditioning but a small fan, it is worth mentioning that there is a separate bathroom, and it suddenly feels that it is not too bad here. But I don't know if it's because of the proximity to the water, the water coming out of the faucet has a faint fishy smell, and even the whole room has this smell, a little pungent, but it's bearable.

The lighting of the house is not very good, it is a bit vague to see things, but it is late and there are not so many requirements, since there is a place to take a bath, let's wash up a little.

That night, I slept quite uncomfortable, at first I still turned on the fan, but in the middle of the night, the inexplicable chill woke me up, I quickly turned off the fan, but it was still very cold, I don't know what this cold is about, but I didn't go to my heart, since it was in the mountains, the night cold or said to pass.

Then I forced myself to sleep, but I couldn't sleep at all, and I always felt like there was wind around me.

I know that I have just turned off the fans, and even the windows are closed, how can there be wind in a house that is sealed on all sides.

I didn't make it to sleep, and when I got out of bed, I turned on the light, the dim light that gave me some comfort on such a cold night.

I wanted to get some extra clothes, but my backpack was lost outside the town, and I only had my wallet on me, so I decided to ask the hotel staff to accompany me tomorrow morning to retrieve the backpack.

However, this is something that will never be achieved.

It may be raining, and it is almost seven o'clock, but the sky outside the hotel is still very dark.

I got up early because I was thinking about my luggage, and there was no one in the hotel, or they had either left or hadn't come yet.

I can remember that I wasn't the only one living in this guesthouse, I stayed on the third floor and there were a few backpackers on the second floor, although I didn't know what the view was, I just walked around and if there was a good view, I wouldn't mind admiring it.

The time slowly moved to nine o'clock, but there was still no sound outside, could it be that the soundproofing effect of this hotel was very strong? I decided to go out anyway, this hotel is no different from what I saw yesterday, it is still very dirty, but the bed last night was quite clean.

There was no one at the bar, so I had to try my luck outside, after all, I was still a little scared to let me go and pick up my backpack alone.

Surprisingly, there is no one outside, I used to live in the countryside, although the pace of life in the countryside is very slow, but most people still follow the morning to go to bed and get up early, after all, morning work is the best time of the day.

I was going to shout a few words, but after looking around closely, my heart started to beat faster again.

It's a small town, but it's not normal.

I saw a few people sitting in front of their houses last night.

But when I walked through these rooms again, I didn't even dare to breathe the atmosphere.

The whole village was dilapidated, and there was nothing but humans here, dead cats and dogs, stout rats, bugs crawling around, spiders, centipedes, bed bugs.

I couldn't believe my eyes, was this where I walked yesterday?

I started running, the structure of the town was very simple, I could get to the end in five minutes, the exit of the town was to cross a small bridge, but when I got to the edge of the bridge again, I hesitated.

The dilapidated bridge doesn't look like it can support an adult's weight at all, and this bridge is about six meters long, so it doesn't look like it can pass at all, so yesterday, I entered this town from here?

A spiked laugh rang out behind me, and I hurried back.

The name of the town is engraved on the stone tablet: Lugu Ancient Town, I actually have the feeling of seeing a tombstone, there is no one in front of me, so, is it an illusion just now? Spiked laughter? Could it be that I misheard?

Curiosity kills cats, this is never wrong, people's curiosity will always drag people down step by step, although I have a strong curiosity, but I don't want to waste my life in it.

I didn't know if I should go back to the town, it was past nine o'clock, but I didn't see a single person in the whole town, the town was clearly problematic, but I had no way to go now.

The structure of the bridge is so broken that I can't say for sure that this is where I came in yesterday, but if I really walked in from a small bridge like this yesterday, I can't be without a feeling.

I decided to go around the town, and the main thing was that the people I met yesterday couldn't have disappeared for no reason, and as for that shrill laugh, it might have been a wild cat.

Speaking of wild cats, you will definitely laugh at me, people who know me well know the funny story when I was a child, I don't know where a few wild cats came from outside the house, every night, the wild cat's cry is no different from the cry of a baby, but the wild cat's cry is hissing, hissing, and a terrible sound similar to a wicked laugh, so that at night I dare not go to the toilet alone, every time I knock on your room, calling you to accompany me.

Now that I think about it, it's ridiculous, but my courage is also slowly growing in your ridicule, and a little bit of getting bigger is actually in addition to guts, there is also cognition. When a person's cognition and understanding collapse, no one knows what will happen.

But there's never a way back.

There was nothing in the town, it was simply an abandoned town, I tried to go into some houses, but I quickly retreated, and many of the houses had become yin houses, that is, those people in the countryside who would never return home, and finally hid in their homes, in the hall of the house, and built a mound of earth, representing eternal departure.

My departure is my choice, I just have become disgusted with my previous life, but if I can, even if it is the cage of life, I will stick to my ordinariness.

I gave up after walking two whole laps, and the general structure of the town was a circle, the kind of structure we had learned in history textbooks, surrounded by ditches, and those ditches were full of filth, the corpses of all kinds of animals, insects flying all over the sky, and I even saw human bones in one place.

The bridge was the only way out of here, and I started to get a little suspicious.

At the slightest hint of turmoil, my heart immediately rose to my throat, I didn't know what kind of thrills I would encounter next, and finally I chose to return to my previous hotel.

Although the hotel is unfamiliar, it is the place where I stayed for one night, and if it was really dangerous, I would not be living like this today.

However, the sky is brighter today, and I can better observe the whole view of the hotel than yesterday's gloom. If there is an idiom to describe my current mood, it is a grass dog, oh no, it is shocking.

This hotel can't be stayed at all, although I don't have a cleanliness habit now, but I won't choose the toilet as my place to live, it's too dirty. I remembered the butterfly apartment I had seen before, this house, it should be considered a spider house.

Although I can be brave, but spiders, hideous-looking little insects, I am more afraid, but I don't even want to eat crayfish, because that's bugs, but if there are really big lobsters, I can still accept it.

I stayed from morning to afternoon, hungry because there was nothing to eat, and then I found some food, and next to the rice were dead rats, flies in the kitchen, and I didn't want to go in at all.

I have to leave here, I have already figured out a way, that is, to tear down the door, since the bridge is problematic, I should be able to repair the bridge. There's still something to eat in the backpack, but only if I can cross the bridge.

However, gradually it seemed to be crowded again, and I looked up at the sky, and the sun was gradually setting, but the town seemed to be a little lively.

It was as if one person appeared out of nowhere, and the whole town rose from a dead silence. But I felt even more frightened.

I know what the hell is going on here during the day.

Seeing that the whole town has become normal, but I didn't go back to the previous hotel, now that I have understood what is going on, then I also probably understand that this town may be different at night.

But I know exactly what will haunt at night.

Disappearing during the day and appearing at night, is there a second explanation other than ghosts?

I tried my best to be more normal, not to look at the people around me, because I had a feeling, and it felt like they were looking at me from all sides.

Whenever I turn around, the eyes of the people around me are clearly shining with green light, muddy and filthy, this is the breath of death, I dare not stop, maybe, I have another choice?

I tried my best to avoid the nearby crowd and ran in the direction of the bridge, but at the moment I ran, there seemed to be a flash of light in front of me, and those crowds took off their disguises, and one after another stinking and rotting corpses appeared in front of me, but these corpses went to do their own things, they seemed to be alive, survivors, living their usual life.

The light disappeared, and the people put on their disguises again, it turned out to be light, the sun did not set, but was obscured by the mountains, but as the light faded away, everything here returned to the past.

I finally came to the bridge, and sure enough, as I had expected, the bridge had been repaired, and this should be the way out, and I walked over the bridge and left the town.

But my heart did not relax, and when I crossed the bridge, I saw the group of graves that I had seen before, neatly arranged, blocking all the roads, and my bag was here, but I only dared to pick up my bag, but I did not dare to cross the grave half a step.

Like the town, as the sun went down, so did the mounds, and the mounds began to crack open, as if a demon was breaking free from the shackles.

I recall the movies and television I have watched before, ghosts that cannot hurt people, and walking corpses, zombies, corpses, and skeletons exist in physical form, which can be regarded as truly dangerous existences.

I couldn't take it anymore and started running towards the town.

At the time of writing, I had been without food for two days, and I could feel a little tired of my body, and even during the day, I could see the ghosts now. Perhaps, they will also regard me as their compatriot, and soon, I will be in this place like them, forever.

Yes, those ghosts are all around me, watching me write here, I don't know if you will receive this letter, this should be my last letter, I even feel that it is very difficult to lift a pen and write.

If anyone can see this letter, please help me send it to my parents.

Goodbye parents, forgive me for my unfilial piety, I can't serve you anymore, I have paid for my curiosity, I hope you can be ordinary.

Sincerely, this is a great deal
