Now that the sky is completely dark, Hu Yinman and I are holding torches and carefully exploring the crack, and the firelight reflects the walls in the crack red. But I don't know if it's insects or the wind blowing the branches, and there is always a sound in my ears. This rustling sound stings my eardrums all the time.

I patted Hu Yinman's hand and realized that she should not be afraid, I was here, and after walking a distance, the crack seemed to have reached the end, I was surprised by the length of this underground crack, I looked around, there were dense holes on all sides, all of which were corroded by water vapor, and the wind blew a strange rhythm through the small cracks.

"There's something." Hu Yinman said softly.

I turned my head, only to see a few turtle shells scattered on the side of the mountain crack wall, I walked over, took them down with my hand and looked at them, the turtle shell has been weathered into the gray of the mountain stone, at a glance I really can't see it, its shell has been used by people, dug out a small hole, between the holes with a knife connected into a variety of tracks. "It's a turtle." I recognized it at a glance.

"Looks like someone is divining something here." I continued to explain to her, and then used my torch to look for traces on the ground that could provide reasoning.

"What are you looking for?"

"I remember hearing that there was an ancient tomb in this mountain, and I wondered if it was here." I said to her, "The way to attack the turtle, remove its armor, and save its wall." The ancients used this method to determine the good fortune of people. But you see, these traces of divination are engraved on the inside of the turtle's shell, with the back being yang and the inside being yin. In other words, this is divination for the dead, so I think of ancient tombs. ”

"Buried?"

"That's right. The burial of the ancients was very particular. "I kicked away a few rocks and just saw a few bodies underneath the pile.

"In ancient times, people used stones to press down the corpses of the sacrificers, and then carved charms with yin patterns on the stones, so that the souls of the sacrificers would always stay here." I was a little distracted and lowered my voice.

But this frightened her so much that she hurriedly hid behind me. "You say there's a ghost?"

"No, no." I wasn't in the mood to joke with her and interrupted her directly, if there was an ancient tomb, it should be around here! But during the day, we searched for a day and found nothing special, so where is it? I have a low terrain here in front of the mountain and there is an underground river in the northwest, there are dark mountains in the mountains on both sides of the underground river to extend to both sides, in the feng shui, this kind of water is the mausoleum, and the mountains on both sides are like wings, so this kind of feng shui is called the phoenix playing in the water by the connoisseurs. I didn't see anything between the phoenix's wings during the day. However, it is surrounded by a cloud of trees and vines, and it seems that there is really a mystery.

"What's wrong?" Hu Yinman saw that I didn't pay much attention to her, and then asked.

"I was thinking that if there is an ancient tomb in this mountain, we can find a way out from the tomb, the ancient tomb has a patio, and the patio can lead to the ground, or the ancient tomb penetrates the mountain, we can go in and try it." To tell the truth, I don't have a bottom in my heart when I say this, but compared to floating out of the underground river and climbing up the sinkhole, I at least think this is a little more realistic, and when the ancients built tombs, there was basically a hanging passage that was stolen by craftsmen, and this kind of passage was only known to those who were martyred after the curtain was closed.

"Tomb robbing?" Hu Yinman's voice was a little quieter, as if he was thinking about something.

"Don't think about it, listen to me, or we'll all die here."

"Okay, okay. But I seemed to see something at the end of that chasm. And then by the flash of your torch. ”

"Really?" I was a little curious, although I knew that the artificial traces of this place were very heavy, but I was still very curious, what was it, I walked over slowly, raised the torch and saw that it was a carving, the carving was carved with a Yin carving technique, the lines of the characters and things were concave, although this technique was stained with a Yin character in the tomb, but it was still rare to see it again, but maybe it was the water vapor here that was heavier, so it would not be able to do it.

The mural looks like a team of people walking on the flat ground, which is very unremarkable. "Nothing." I said.

"That's not right." This is Hu Yinman frowned, "No, those people don't look like people, they have pointed ears and big mouths, I suddenly remembered the legend of a ghost painting that circulated in our village." ”

"Really?" I listened to Yang Shizhong tell the story of the human skin, I looked up at the mural, the ghosts and gods danced together, the fire and the night tour, after her reminder, it seemed to have a different metaphor, this mural, is depicting a hundred ghosts walking at night?

The original name of this mountain is Pushan, there are all kinds of interlaced underground rivers in the mountain, but they all have a history of thousands of years, in the early years when I was not born, someone had picked up a little jade by the river in the mountain, so there is this name.

But fortunately, Pushan is a primeval forest area, there are countless sinkholes and dark rivers in it, and there are many wild beasts, and there are several times when people who go up the mountain to dig jade have encountered the legendary wild man, and secondly, after the turmoil, no one has set foot in this place.

Until a certain day a few years ago, a group of people entered the mountain, breaking the silence in the mountain, so that there were several places to get a landslide, and finally the matter was big and the provincial level came to people, they quietly slipped away, after investigation showed that those people were tomb robbers, it seems that they dug up a small tomb, I heard that it was a burial, and there are rumors that there is a big tomb in the mountain, and the range is several kilometers.

In fact, I don't know much about these, mainly because those people found a few ancient murals in the mountains inexplicably, and the distribution area is still very large.

One of them is a human-skin ghost flag, one is a ghost out of the mountain gate, and the other is a hundred ghosts walking at night.

The human skin ghost flag is a flag made of human skin, and the mural depicts several human-shaped flags floating in the air.

Hu Yinman seemed to feel that his expression was not terrifying enough, so he opened his teeth and scratched the depiction.

I smiled and motioned for her to continue, but who knew that she was pouting, "No, I've just seen this one, the others are hearsay, and the version is a mess and a big push." ”

"So?" I stood beside her, looked at the inscription, and said to her, "I heard Yang Shizhong say it too. ”

"You know him?" Hu Yinman was a little surprised.

"Or do you think?" I didn't explain much, but said lightly, "Lao Yang said that he saw the content on the mural." Real seen. ”

"Or do you think?" Hu Yinman suddenly interrupted me and sarcastically said.

"Hungry" I was speechless, this girl probably thought I didn't take her seriously, so she got angry.

I couldn't help it, smiled bitterly at her, and arched my hand, "Please teach me." ”

"Hmph," she snorted, and said unhurriedly, "Many people have thought that these murals are in the ancient tombs of the mountains that have been blown up by tomb robbers, but in fact, they are not ....... She gave me a meaningful disdain," the third uncle told us that he had witnessed the night walk of a hundred ghosts on the mountain. ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, although this story was no longer stressful in Hu Yinman's words, but after all, it was the first time I felt such a strangeness, that is, all the phenomena in this mountain are according to the story in the mural? Suddenly, I remembered what Yang Shizhong and I encountered when we first entered the mountain?

"A hundred ghosts out of the mountain?" I said to myself.

"What did you say?" She gave me a suspicious look.

"Nothing. But what your third uncle means is that these mural carvings originally existed, and they are not the products of the same era as the ancient tombs? ”

"That's right. That's it, so this mountain is gradually called a ghost mountain, and it has become a forbidden area, and no one has set foot here? ”

"Is that so?" I thought that the frescoes and the ancient tombs are not the same age, so it does not have a representative. So? So whose work are these mural carvings? And for what? Could it be that there are really ghosts in this mountain?

I shook my head in vain, and the mystery of everything should be determined when I see the ancient tomb. I said hello to Hu Yinman and motioned to go out and have a look, as for the problem of the ancient tomb, the sooner we find out, the better, it is not difficult that we may really be trapped here.
