Chapter 43: Ah Chun and Ah Sen
After hearing Ah Mao's scream, Ma Liu was the first to rush over and press Ah Mao's backhand against the wall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This is Captain Cao's order, in order to avoid the recurrence of Ah Chun's situation, as long as he finds anyone behaving abnormally, Ma Lu will rush over and subdue him. And if Ma Liu's behavior is abnormal, he will be subdued by Captain Cao.
"Ma Liu, let go! I'm normal! Mao shouted and struggled.
"Are you sure it's okay?" Ma Liu said.
"Nope! I'm normal! ”
"And what were you just calling?"
"See for yourself!" Mao pointed to the side.
Ma Liu then let go of Ah Mao and looked in the direction of Ah Mao's finger, and then he froze, did not speak, and did not react in any way.
"What's wrong?" Captain Cao immediately walked over.
Everyone followed Captain Cao over. At this point, I saw a terrifying and familiar scene.
There were two pools of blood on the ground, and two pairs of bloody footprints stretched into the distance. This place was originally where the bodies of Ah Chun and Ah Sen were placed, but the two bodies were missing in the half hour we had just rested. Is it another deception?
"What's that?" Xu Li pointed straight ahead.
Our flashlight shone on it. I saw two things dangling in the distance. When I looked closely, cold sweat broke out on my forehead, and the hairs on my whole body stood up. Those were two people, and looking at the back, the preliminary judgment was that it was the dead Ah Chun and Ah Sen. They limped forward, leaving bloody footprints behind them. But if you look closely, they don't look like they're walking at all, they're floating. Because their bodies lean forward at seventy or eighty degrees, and the swaying amplitude from side to side is relatively large, normal people cannot walk in this posture at all. But the words of the dead are not clear.
We were all stunned.
"This ...... Is this really a corpse fraud? The commissioner said. In this situation, even the commissioner who has been scolding us not to be suspicious can only say this.
"Ah Chun, Ah Sen, is that you?" Captain Cao had the courage to shout ahead, "Are you still alive? ”
What surprised me even more happened, the two figures in front of me seemed to hear Captain Cao's shout, and suddenly fell forward. They were almost on their stomachs, and then they slammed forward, much faster than they had just walked. But what surprised me even more was that they still seemed to be floating in the air. Because of the distance and light, it is not clear what is beneath them, but judging by the position of the ground and the height they are at, their bodies should not have touched the ground yet. Hell yes.
"Ma Liu, Ah Mao, let's chase!" Captain Cao said.
"Wait!" Captain Cao and the others just wanted to chase, but they were stopped by Master Zhang, "Have you forgotten the situation just now?" There are traps all over here, and my foot is twisted again, and I can't go with you. ”
"This ......" Captain Cao hesitated, although I don't know what he really thinks, but I guess he is weighing the pros and cons of chasing and not chasing
"But we can't watch our companions leave, even if we know there's a trap." Ma Liu said.
"We've just confirmed that those two are dead!" Master Zhang said, "The traps here are very powerful, no matter how good your skills are, it is not easy to touch the mechanism and want to survive!" It's not worth letting a living die for the sake of two corpses! ”
"Are they going to go?" Ma Liu said, "What if we are all wrong, what if they are not dead? ”
"If they're not dead, why don't they respond to Captain Cao's shout. In this case, I think they are cheating corpses rather than not dead! ”
"Even if they do die, we will get their bodies back."
"You kid is really an old eater!"
I always find this sentence of Master Zhang strange, eating the old is generally used by young people to describe the old people will not be flexible, but now this term is a fifty or sixty-year-old man to describe the behavior of a young man in his twenties, I think it is very twisted.
"We're going," Captain Cao said suddenly, "because they are our good brothers, and we can't let this matter go!" ”
"I'll go too!" I say.
"What are you going to do?" Ma Lu asked.
"I'm the one who proved those two dead, I'm going to make sure I'm right!" I say.
"You can't go!" Ma Liu said.
"But ......"
"Time is running out!" Captain Cao said, "They have already gone far, and those who are going to follow up, we will set off immediately!" ”
"Wait a minute!" Master Zhang took out a compass from his pocket and handed it to Captain Cao, "This is a compass that has been opened to the light, and it has the effect of warding off evil spirits." It can also help you point out safe areas. If something unclean is present, the compass will keep spinning. Promise me that when the compass needle does not point in one direction, you will not be able to go any further, and you must come back immediately! ”
"Good!" Captain Cao said and led us in the direction of the two corpses.
Captain Cao ran at the front with a compass, Ma Lu and I ran in the middle, and Ah Mao was behind.
I'm much more comfortable with cold, stiff corpses, but this is the first time I've encountered a running corpse. I've been thinking about this after last night's weird encounter, and I'm going to let me meet it today. Although I am a forensic doctor, I can't help but feel fear in my heart about these things that science can't explain. But my desire to learn drove me to follow along.
Just now, after Dr. Wu confirmed that Ah Chun and Ah Sen were not saved, I then went to examine the bodies. Ah Chun died of blood loss due to a spear piercing his chest. Asen died because his stomach was cut open with a sharp weapon, and he also suffered from excessive blood loss. I was pretty sure their pulses had stopped beating and they were both dying. But why are those two still walking? And seeing that they were walking in a floating position instead of walking, they later moved forward in a position close to lying on their stomachs, but they didn't seem to touch the ground. Now that I think about it, my hairs stand on end again.
There are a lot of mysteries at the beginning of this mission, which are very strange and evil. Why should there be 40 well-trained and well-equipped soldiers in an archaeological team of 47 people? Did the superiors know that there was danger here in the first place? And is it necessary forty soldiers to cope with this danger?
What's the use of a forensic doctor for a normal archaeological team? Want to get a first-hand autopsy report? Could it be that the superiors already knew that someone in the archaeological team would definitely die mysteriously?
In the small village at the foot of Longtou Mountain, the villagers are very taboo about the Longgu Temple, and some villagers once said that there are mountain ghosts in the mountains that can climb in human shapes. The monster that attacked us last night was also described as a humanoid monster that could crawl, could it be the same thing? Do mountain ghosts really exist?
Our wounded and dead companions have disappeared one after another, leaving bloody footprints at the site of their disappearance. I also saw my companion whom I had confirmed to be dead floating in the distance. All of this made me curious and scared at the same time.
Since I volunteered to participate in this archaeological mission, I don't want to complain. But I don't even know the purpose of looking for Shu Shensuo, and the insiders have been refusing to tell us on the grounds of international secrecy, but they have made the matter serious on the grounds that it is related to national security. I feel very mysterious, I am very unwilling. It's like selling false advertising that says their product is good, good, very good. But it doesn't tell you why the product is good, why it's good, why it's very good. As I said before, I don't know what I'm working for, I don't know if it's worth my hard work.
"Take it for self-defense!" Just as I was thinking nonsense, Captain Cao in front slowed down, he took out his saber from his waist and handed it to me, "I hope you don't come with us on the spur of the moment, you have to understand that what we are chasing now is not necessarily people!" ”
I swallowed heavily and took the saber, which looked sharp but unexpectedly heavy, and my hand sank for it.
"I don't regret it, I just want to make sure that the death of those two people was judged correctly at that time!" I say.
Captain Cao then continued to run back to the front.
"See!" Ma Lu pointed to the front and said.
I saw the figures of Ah Chun and Ah Sen in the distance. They still floated forward quickly in that strange posture.
Once again, my heart was on my throat.
Captain Cao looked at the compass in his hand, the direction of the pointer did not change, and he kept pointing ahead.
"Looks like we can still chase! Hurry up! ”
