Chapter 250: Another World
The world behind the door is not as strange and absurd as they think, or ghostly and thrilling, it is still a step.
It was a bend, similar to the present house where a small platform appeared between the second floor and the third floor, and there was a door behind this platform through which they entered.
It seems that they can go up and down, and what excites them the most is that they can see a little light when they go up.
Up or down?
Going up means you can leave this hellish place, and going down means you don't know.
Moving on, it was a decision made by the three of them together without much discussion!
No one can guarantee that this step will be able to reach the end. I can't count how many stairs there are, but they stretch on and on endlessly, one by one.
The environment was still a little dry, but the air was a little dead, and the steps were similar in shape and texture to the ones before, and they were a little frightened, and had to look back every few steps to see if the light above them was still there.
The light has gradually become a bright spot, and it is not only the steps that accompany them.
Dried corpses, rows of dried corpses began to lean against the stone wall, some had fallen to the ground because they were unstable on their feet, and some were missing arms and legs, in short, this was a row of endless dried corpses.
These dried corpses, including boyfriends and women, old and young, spread along this long staircase. Fortunately, these brothers are all people who have seen the world, but they still don't dare to be calm in their hearts, there are many hellish things, and now there is no Cha Wenbin, if someone suddenly pats the shoulder behind at this time, and if he can't keep it, Chaozi can jump down directly.
The distance that the miner's lamp can reach is still limited, and the clothes worn by these dried corpses are also different, they tried to walk forward a little, and found that the more dry corpses were placed in the back, the more casually they were placed, and some simply fell directly on the steps.
There was a wind here, whirring from below and blowing upwards, and such a large string of corpses lay here, making Chaozi stumble out of his mouth with a word: "Is this fucking bacon?" ”。
In the Bashu area, in the past when there was no refrigerator and cold storage, in order to facilitate the storage of meat, the meat would be hung in a dry place after slaughter, and let the air dry, so that the meat made could not only be preserved for a longer time, but also have a unique flavor.
Most of the dried corpses were only hair and sunken eye sockets, their teeth had been completely calcified, and judging by their clothing, they seemed to be commoners, because the rough linen cloth was not the choice of the nobles.
After staying by Cha Wenbin's side for a long time, even Zhuo Xiong would say a few words: "I guess Bacheng is a corpse cave, this place is not a good place, there are so many dead people in place, and they don't let people into the ground, just the yin qi can scare people to death." It seems that this is a ghost town. ”
"You see, there's a lot of ghost fire." Dashan said, pointing to the flickering dot of greenery below.
It was like a veritable netherworld abyss, with countless ghostly fires roaming beneath them. Think about it, how can so many corpses not produce phosphorus fire, although this thing has almost no ability to harm, but the feeling of depression it brings is more powerful than jumping out of a zombie wearing a Qing Dynasty uniform.
Atmosphere, this is a kind of rendering, from the rendering of hell and death, people's momentum when it encounters this environment, will immediately instinctively shrink, which also indirectly causes those dirty things to have an opportunity to take advantage of.
Why are the places where ghosts are usually encountered in some hospitals, cemeteries or abandoned houses, one is that these places are really yin, and the other is that when people come here, they will have an instinctive self-protection and vigilance, which will naturally lower the three fires on their shoulders.
It's not that there are no dirty things under the busy streets and noisy neon lights, it's just that the environment of those places can give people a psychological hint, how can this place be haunted? With this kind of belief, it naturally increased its fire, and the eight characters began to harden.
It is said that people are afraid of ghosts for three points, and ghosts are afraid of people for seven points, so many wandering ghosts and wild ghosts, those who can be attacked by them are either really weak and sick, or they are really unlucky, and more are picked those who are timid and shrinking.
It's like when you feel that you are unlucky, the more you don't want something to happen, the more something will happen. In fact, it's not that fate is playing tricks on you, but that you are already hinting to yourself that this will definitely happen, and your aura will weaken, and then there will be bad luck.
Therefore, at all times, people need to maintain a sunny and upward attitude, thinking that evil is invincible, not doing bad things on weekdays, and not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night! Stand up straight and walk right, the little ghost is coming, and seeing that you are vigorous, he will naturally take a detour.
Fortunately, this brother immediately retracted his spirit, what kind of wind and waves have not been seen, isn't it just a pile of dead corpses? What are you afraid of! Let's go!
Walking back, but walking past the dead, that's still a bit exquisite. Chaozi folded his hands, bowed to the front, and read: "Uncles and aunts, uncles and aunts, children, a few of us are going to follow the road, and we have no intention of disturbing, bothering you to make it convenient, and when we go out, we will give you more paper money and more incense." ”
Originally, he was going to use this sentence to adjust the tense atmosphere, who would have thought, as soon as these words fell, hey, the long string of green ghost fires on the ground actually dispersed in all directions, retreating in groups, until they disappeared from their sight.
The three of them looked at each other, can this also work? Chaozi hurriedly gave these ancestors and grandfathers a good gift, and then dared to continue.
The dead man has seen a lot of this thing, and that's it. Just like the doctors in the hospital, they deal with people who have died and are about to die every day, so they don't see the word death as a light. It is said that when you face something that you are not familiar with or even a little disgusting, but as long as you force your heart to accept it, it will slowly become a habit, and this length of time is about 28 days.
Twenty-eight days, that's for ordinary people, and for them, two minutes is enough. Now Chaozi's uncontrollable mouth has begun to comment on which corpse is relatively well preserved, and which corpse has tooth decay before death, which is completely the mentality of entering the museum to see the exhibition of dried corpses, and I don't know how the group of ghost fires who pushed down just now feel now.
But behind every secret that is discovered, there must be an untold history, and there are so many dried corpses and stairs built on such a scale that no ordinary person can afford it. Chaozi said that these dried corpses seem to be thousands of years old, and in that unknown era, it took not only the power of the whole country to build such an underground world, but also time, and this place could not be built overnight.
Down, they could find a little clue, that is, the further down, the larger the space, and the bare stone walls began to show traces of running water. The southwest of China is home to a large number of karst landforms, many of which have been used by the ancients as sacred places for exploration by modern explorers.
According to their analysis, this may be a large natural cave, but the water has long since dried up, and it has been used as a corpse cave.
Once the mentality is adjusted, it will be like traveling, but their hearts are still tied to Cha Wenbin's whereabouts, and they have been walking for nearly two hours, and finally the miner's lamp shines on a trace of strangeness.
There are no longer steps in front of you, but paved with smooth stones. Walking further, the road seems to come to an end, but the color of the rocks changes.
Two huge black basalt stones stood opposite each other, revealing an imperceptible gap in the middle, which could not even be inserted into the blade. On the surface of the basalt, there is only one fierce and vicious ghost carved respectively, and the momentum alone is very terrifying.
Chaozi looked at this door and complained: "Another door? With this group of old guys, they like to dig holes when they have nothing to do, and when they dig holes, they block some doors that can't be opened, isn't this deliberately embarrassing us? ”。
Zhuo Xiong stood in front of this door and looked up and down, this pair of doors, not to mention thousands of catties, I really don't know how they were erected at the beginning: "Try it, it's all here." ”
As he spoke, Zhuo Xiong gently put his hand on the door, and a cold came immediately, he only pushed it gently, and with that push, a "squeak" sound came, and a pair of ancient doors were opened by him like this
