Chapter 4: The Bloody Fork
"What's going on? People are eaten by the wall? Calm down and speak slowly. What about Talia and Chan Jae-hae? "I thought to myself that yesterday's feeling was right, there was definitely something strange in the tunnel!
Nie Chuanhui, the kid, seemed to be really frightened, and what he said next was incoherent and incoherent. Really, where did you throw away the traditional quality of a soldier who doesn't panic when he encounters trouble?
This ghost place can really surprise me every day, in desperation I had to grab his shoulders and shake desperately, if it weren't for the fact that this child looked too simple, I was afraid that my hands hurt, and I really wanted to wake him up with a big mouth.
"You don't have to say anything else! Stop crying, is it a man? Tell! Sue! I! What's going on? Where are Talia and Chen Zaihai? I said.
At this moment, Nie Chuanhui seemed to be a little calmer, and he told me intermittently in a trembling voice that Talia and a few engineers were in the middle of the fork, and he had come to inform the others that something had happened.
As soon as I saw that he was in this state now, I pushed him back and went to call Chen Zaihai and them myself. If you want this child to call noon, no one can get together.
Now I am also anxious, and at this point in the mission, our losses are already very large. Especially these engineers, they don't know anything, and they die in such a confused way. Because of the confidential mission, their families do not even have the right to know the specifics.
Yesterday's sleep made me recover a lot of physical strength, and with the red light of the emergency light, I found Chen Zaihai, who was still snoring, and reminded him, and then gathered the remaining engineers as quickly as possible.
Chen Zaihai, who had just woken up, kept asking me what was wrong, and I said in my heart, you ask me, who will I ask? The wall ate people? Nie Chuanhui, I'm really worried about your ability to express yourself, so let's just say that, how do I understand it.
"I don't know exactly what's going on, but it seems that something happened in the middle fork in the road, where is Talia, go and find out." I said.
It's the same scarlet volcanic rock tunnel I saw yesterday, and we walked down the tracks. Not far ahead, there should be the light of Taria's miner's lamp.
When we walked in, we found that they were surrounding a wall led by Taria, and Nie Chuanhui was also beside them. What is this for? Could it be that someone was really eaten by the wall?
Chen Zaihai called out to Talia, who was visibly startled, she almost jumped up and turned around, and in the light of the miner's lamp, I noticed that Talia's face was pale and unspeakable.
"What's the matter, Lao Su called me up and said that something was wrong, and I couldn't tell why. Don't sell it, tell me what you're looking at here? Chen Zaihai asked.
"An engineer has died, our people. He died last night, I really don't know how late it is, how can he run so far without a miner's lamp alone. Talia replied, and I felt visibly shaken in the passage.
What happened to make the determined Talia change in this way, my heart is going to rise to my throat again
"You said an engineer died? How was it sacrificed? I then asked Chen Zaihai.
"I really don't know how to describe it, if I have to say it, he was sucked in by the wall" Talia's answer was very similar to Nie Chuanhui's, which made people scratch their heads. "Anyway, you'll know for yourself, but be sure to prepare in advance."
After saying that, she asked the engineer on the side to make an opening for us, so that we could observe the scene of the accident.
Confused, we turned on the miner's lamp and shone inside
It was a bright red wall, and it was still volcanic rock, with a few cables wrapped around it. Maybe it's my delusion, there seems to be a faint smell of iron wafting between the thick smell of sulfur? Although the color of this wall is a little brighter than the one on the side, I still don't see any clues, what about the dead people?
"I said, Talia is this" Just as I was about to go back and ask Talia what was going on, Chen Zaihai stopped me. I noticed that his face had become as pale as Talya's, and cold sweat was running down his neck.
"Talia was right. Lao Su, look carefully, there is a reason why this wall is so red. It's not a volcanic rock at all, it's a monster," Chen Zaihai said coldly.
The atmosphere suddenly became strange, and I had to take a closer look at the wall. Talia behind her gave Nie Chuanhui a color and lit a miner's lamp.
Hey, I thought in my heart that this was the way it should be. All of a sudden, the light was abundant, and many details that had been unclear before were gradually revealed.
What the is this, this, this! When I finally realized what I had been staring at all this time, I almost collapsed.
It's like you're blindfolded, eating someone else's sausage, and when you take off the blindfold, you find that you're eating the intestines that came out of that person's stomach! It's a big joke!
I tried to go backwards like a chicken, and I accidentally bumped into a couple of engineers in the process. Just such a small episode made Talia's face whiter again.
"Chen Zaihai! Hurry up and hold someone up! Don't touch those walls! She shouted.
Fortunately, this is a tunnel for trains to move, and it is wide enough. The people I hit all fell to the ground, and only one engineer who fell to the wall was also quickly pulled by Chen Zaihai.
"What did you all find out what this thing was?" I looked at both of them in horror and was answered with a nod.
Isn't the world crazy? Can walls really eat people? Nie Chuanhui, you are really good at describing it, I really can't think of other ways to express this kind of scene.
The reason why the wall I saw just now was brighter than the rest was because it was just filled with the blood of living people! That bright red was the color of blood, and I should have realized it when I smelled the iron.
Now that the lighting situation has improved, many details of the wall have become clearer. The volcanic rocks that are interlaced with canine teeth throughout the wall seem to be irregular, but now that you look at them, you can see that they appear to be in human shape. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a person has been pressed into the wall alive, his flesh and blood have been devoured, his bones have been crushed, the blood in his whole body is like a tomato that has been suddenly crushed, the red liquid is scattered in all directions, and the last drop has seeped into the entire wall.
Never since I was forced in by that monster had been so hated for clear lighting, every detail on the walls was palpable. I even saw a human finger sticking out of the many volcanic rocks just now, and it was so bloody.
"What the hell is going on? Is he really our man? "I feel like something is pouring up from my stomach." Are the red walls we saw along the way full of dead people like this? "I was scared when I said that, if that was the case, wouldn't we have slept with a bunch of dead people last night?
"Yes, he was originally Wei Tiezhu of our class. I slept with me last night, but when I woke up in the middle of the night, I found that he was gone, and I didn't bring a gun or a miner's lamp, so I thought he might go to ** and left it alone. I knew that when Chief Talia asked me today, I learned that he hadn't come back at all. Nie Chuanhui said.
"And we can't deny your idea, it's very powerful. Going out of this wall, the rest of the tunnel is a dark red, and no one can refute saying that they are blood residue after a long time of air-drying and oxidation. Talia patted Nie Chuanhui on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, "After all, we don't have reliable analytical instruments on hand, and no one wants to touch this wall, right?" ”
I looked at the wall in front of me and thought to myself, "Is this thing alive?" So how many lives has it devoured over the past few decades?
I told Chen Zaihai that this was a tunnel built by the Japanese, and they must have known something about this phenomenon. Knowing that this is a man-eating tunnel, why would they risk driving the train inside?
After I finished speaking, Nie Chuanhui proposed, "That, Chief Su." First of all, I don't think this tunnel was dug by man. I've been observing since I came in yesterday and it was supposed to be a natural cave. There are still many places where the cement inner wall is not covered, and there are no traces of excavation at all, and this tunnel should be transformed. ”
"Little devils are very strict in what they do, and it is impossible for them not to understand the dangers of doing this. But Lao Su, do you think about what this place is going to do? It's a train, and even if this ghost wall really has this ability, it won't affect them, and the train won't be eaten. There are so many huge benefits in this underground that the little devil is so laborious and money-free to build a large number of buildings. "Chan Zaikaido.
It makes sense to think so. When this natural cave was first renovated, the Japanese may have suffered some small losses and several people died. But what if the value of what is below is far greater than what they are paying for? The answer is obvious, and they will keep doing it. In order to prevent this from happening, they may take some measures, but they will never stop the construction.
Then you can roughly guess what it was like at that time. During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese discovered this alien magnetic area by some coincidence. The reason for this could be too frequent lightning strikes here, or it could be a strange failure of equipment such as radar.
In short, these phenomena attracted the attention of the Japanese high-level, and the Japanese, who were naturally curious, decided to seriously explore the area. At that time, it was still a Japanese-occupied area, and they could carry out this task in a very calm and orderly manner.
Eventually, they discovered it, a natural cave that went straight underground. Judging from what was found inside the pitch-black signal tower, there must be something underneath this area that we can't imagine. It is clear that the Japanese also noticed this at that time, so they decided to find this place, and in the end they had some success, as can be seen from the strange logbook and other sources.
Although I don't know where the Japanese ended up, it definitely has nothing to do with this tunnel. That kind of huge plan, the transportation of manpower and materials can only be carried out by rail, and along this railway there will definitely be something to be discovered.
"Su Zhenpeng is right, this is indeed a clue that cannot be ignored." Talia agreed, "But there's two things you haven't noticed. The first is that the Japanese may actually pay much less than you think. ”
"What do you mean by that?" I asked.
"Think about it, what was the cheapest kind of labor for the Japanese at that time?"
"Chinese laborer" Chen Zaihai reacted immediately.
"That's right, if this tunnel is as dangerous as we speculated, the Japanese will never use too many of their own people. Most of the implementation of the entire project should have been done by the Chinese. Talia added.
"And when the project is completed, it will also be a very good treatment plant, a treatment plant for Chinese laborers. These bastards have turned this place into a mass grave! Speaking of this, Chen Zaihai's voice trembled.
Thinking about this, I feel like my back is cold, what a frustrating act. Judging by this scale, it is likely that hundreds of compatriots will be buried here, and there will be no more tragic way to die than this.
"That's right, that's the first point. And the second point is these cables that lead to the inside of the wall. Talia kicked the cables under her feet, "We may have misunderstood what these cables are for, they may not be used to carry electricity. ”
At this point, I seem to understand what Talia is going to say, "You mean these cables are used to suppress this ghost wall?" ”
"Yes, that's probably what it is. We don't have time to be sad here, so let's get out of this place quickly. I don't know when we'll be tricked. Talia urged.
