Chapter 10 The Second Accident

Obviously, this is the former camp of the Japanese army, and there are many military supplies scattered around, and I even saw several boxes of military quilts, which were black and rotten when I opened them, and it seemed that the Japanese were evacuated in a hurry.

The entire camp was in a state of abandonment, with various unknown weeds and vines growing tall. Discarded old weapons were piled up all over the floor, and all the buildings that could be seen were completely integrated with the surroundings.

We forcibly kicked open the door of a wooden house, and the dust was so scattered that we could barely open our mouths. Every corner of the room was covered with thick cobwebs, and all kinds of strange flying insects flew all over the sky.

This place is disgusting. The room was very simple, and there was no other bulky items left with a collapsed bed and a table that was about to rot.

What surprised us the most was that there was also a telephone in it, which was a luxury in the war at the time, and it was not possible to set up a telephone line in such a place.

Even now, it is not a good idea to set up a telephone in such a harsh environment, according to the engineer who accompanied the team. Not to mention the era at that time, there was only point-to-point single-line communication, which was even more inefficient.

Due to the limitations of technology at the time, the distance of telephone transmission was very limited. In such an environment, it is easier to send a telegram if you really want to convey something, or even run over it.

Chen Zaihai ran to pick up the phone and listened, but it was broken. I thought to myself, of course, if this works, won't it be haunted?

Ivan then asked the engineers if they had found a way to connect the phone. The engineers shook their heads, there were no engineering drawings, and looking for a telephone line in this sea of forests was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Now that decades have passed, no one can guarantee that the phone line is not broken, and if we finally touch the end of the line, then it will be interesting.

However, the most urgent situation is not the abandoned camp, but something else.

The Soviet contingent, which was supposed to arrive first, was nowhere to be found, and judging by these newer Soviet-style marching tents, they must have been stationed there.

Ivan had been contacted by the task force just yesterday afternoon, and could not believe that something would happen in the space of a short day for the task force to abandon the immediate rendezvous.

It makes sense that they would choose this place as a meeting point, and after being developed by the Japanese, it is obviously much safer than in the forest. With a wide view, these abandoned buildings also provide them with shelter from the wind and rain.

Why this place is suddenly empty, it is really incomprehensible.

Ivan in front looked anxious, his angular face was covered with sweat, and he kept asking the signal corps on the side to get in touch with the task force. I heard the signal soldier say that for some reason, the current radio signal is very unstable, and no matter how you debug it, all you receive is noise.

Of course, the area we are in is the place where the magnetic field is abnormal, and the radio will definitely not be used. The task force had sent someone out of the area to deliver the message to us.

"Really, when I get to this place, strange things happen. First there was a lightning strike, and then an underground arsenal, what is missing this time? Are we playing tricks on us? Chen Zaihai complained.

"Okay, anyway, this place is weird, and we'll have to be cautious in the future." Looking at Ivan, who was still doing useless work on the transmitter in front of me, I replied.

"I think it's useless to be careful, Lao Su, you also saw the thunder, right? That's a chop and a death, and if you are targeted by that thing, no matter how careful you are. Chen Zaihai said disapprerovitically.

We have also encountered disappearances in the wild in the past, and those who have gone missing are often never recovered.

I remember that it was not long after I joined the Meteorological Bureau, and that mission was to make regular observations of the climate in the Qinling Mountains, and at that time, unlike what I want to see now, the weather can be checked by a satellite and a computer, and after a long period of on-the-spot measurement of air pressure, humidity and temperature, our task was finally completed.

At that time, there was a survey team in charge of surveying a mountainous area, but when it was time to assemble, they did not return, and then we entangled the local villagers, police and even the People's Liberation Army to conduct a carpet net search of the mountainous area, which lasted for three days and two nights, and found nothing except a water bottle in their team. The survey team of 6 people disappeared into the small mountainous area for no reason, and there were no people alive or dead.

There are many theories about their disappearance, encountering a geological collapse, being eaten by wild beasts, falling into the river and washed away. But this was nothing more than our own self-deception, and the six men really just disappeared, leaving no evidence of their existence, except for the kettle.

I would always hear the old people in the village say that the mountain is actually alive, sometimes it eats people, sometimes it saves people. It may seem alarmist to others, but for those of us who have really experienced something, there is always something special about it, and we can't laugh at it.

Could it be that this is also the case in this forest where we are now? We broke its decades of silence, and now it's going to deal with us? And the last batch of Japanese who came was already dealt with?

I immediately shook my head vigorously, and now I had to remain calm, for if I thought in the direction of strange powers, I would lose my most basic judgment.

The contingent must have had to be moved from here due to some unforeseen circumstances. You'll be in touch with us soon.

In the end, Ivan gave up hope in the transmitter and communication creeps, and began to organize engineers to conduct a simple search of the surrounding terrain. We are not the same as the geological team, we are complete technicians, and the ability to search and survive in the field is not outstanding, although there will also be field tasks, but compared with the engineering troops who open mountains and pave roads and the geological team that drills mountains and seeks coal, our meteorological bureau is like playing at home.

I, Chen Zaihai, Wang Weiguo and some other people from the Meteorological Bureau were ordered to stay where they were, and together with us were part of the geological team and two squads of engineers.

It was a bit strange to be surrounded by Japanese leftovers, and we didn't dare to live in the tents left behind by the task force, because the devil knew why they went missing.

Behind the weeds mixed with barbed wire, we found several small wooden houses, which appeared to be Japanese sentry posts. Inside, it was simple, with a crumbling table and a lime-sprinkled bed, and it looked like it had been handled by the task force. The ground is littered with the corpses of unknown insects, and we have no choice but to rest here for the time being.

It was already overcast outside before we came in, which reminded me of the strange cloud map and the little nail that had been struck by lightning, and under the unanimous request and explanation of Chen Zaihai and I, we finally decided to stay here until Ivan brought people back.

This house is all wooden, and the thunder will never be able to split here unless it is alive. Soon there was a thunderclap outside, which made me worry that Ivan was coming outside. The atmosphere in the room was very deserted, and this coldness made Chen Zaihai, who was originally very lively, obediently shut his mouth.

Except for the two little soldiers who were on guard outside, the exploration team of the Meteorological Bureau and the engineering team were crowded with more than a dozen people in this small room. I swept aimlessly among these people, and I stopped looking at a delicate face, the rare white face of a woman of that era, combined with a slender figure and coiled black hair, this was definitely a presence that was difficult for the men present to ignore. The woman who inexplicably appeared behind me at that meeting, it turns out that she also stayed?

She seemed to notice my gaze too, and looked back at me with a smirk. I immediately looked away in embarrassment, and I thought my face must have been flushed by then. 、

We waited until late at night, and Ivan did not come back, and I fell asleep groggily on the damp and cold wooden floor.

However, the next day we were not greeted by Ivan, who had returned from the search, but by Talia and the news she had brought with her - something had happened to the camp again
