Chapter 54: Earthworms

It is said that such a videotape will have a text explanation at the beginning, such and such shooting, why it was filmed, or there is a warning. However, this roll of film goes straight to the subject from the very beginning.

Because the videotape was shot earlier, it was colorless, completely black and white film. Despite this, this kind of historical-themed film has a special sense of precipitation and depression because of the black and white effect. The characters in the picture have a kind of depth of imagery, which makes people feel unfinished and profound.

The foreground is an underground scene, densely packed with thousands of laborers at work. It can be seen that there is very little machinery and equipment on site, and almost all of them are hand-dug and picked. Japanese soldiers patrolled in all directions. There is not a single sound on the screen, a complete silent film. We all know that the scene in front of us is real history, not an anti-Japanese drama, and the mood of watching the movie is particularly depressing.

The Japanese on the screen have indifferent expressions, they are all thin, some have beards, and they seem to have an indescribably strange temperament. There is a very clear difference from the Chinese laborers who are working on the field.

As for the Chinese laborers, their expressions are a little ignorant and sluggish, and they only know how to work. This is only a superficial phenomenon, and no one knows what is hidden behind the yellow faces. Xiucai once planned a prison escape.

The footage of the base was soon over. The photographer did not focus on this passage, but only recorded it as a historical material.

The next part of the scene takes place in the core laboratory that opens the door to the underworld. Suddenly this image appeared, the logical jump is a bit big, and there is no good logical and temporal connection with the previous part. If it's a movie, it's not qualified.

The scene shows rows of surgical chairs, each strapped to a Chinese experimenter, dressed in prison uniforms and head-studded with wires. Next to each operating chair, there were Japanese soldiers, holding guns, with gloomy expressions.

The frames are all long shots, and the camera moves very slowly, with the depth of field always changing. Rows of surgical chairs, panicked experimenters, pale soldiers. The film is very old, and the picture is covered with rough grains, and there are unnecessary shaking from time to time, which makes people look very depressed.

There was silence in the screening room, everyone was watching quietly, and no one spoke.

It seems that the indicator light of a large instrument in front of the screen is on. Because the distance is too far, the effect is relatively blurry, and the indicator light is too small, you can only see that there must be a change, and it is not clear what it is.

The experimenters in the chair were like suddenly under the spell, their movements were very uniform, their bodies jerked, and they all fell into a state of coma and death. It looks like dozens of people have epilepsy at the same time, and the visual impact is still very strong.

At this time, I saw a group of soldiers escorting dozens of people to appear. Chained, handcuffed and shackled, they walked to the huge concrete tank at the end of the lab.

I can see that there is one of them, it is Shimizu Liang.

I subconsciously glanced at him. Yao Bing was hiding behind the light of the camera at the moment, black and confused, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

It seems that the trough is the gate where yin and yang intersect. I saw one person after another walk in, and then disappeared to the bottom of the trough.

Here's a detail that's worth noting. There is a logical relationship between the act of walking in the shade and the experimenter's act of wearing a helmet. That is to say, there are experimenters who wear helmets first, and then these people go to the underworld. Are these two phenomena mutually causal? I've heard Yao Bing say before that opening the door to the underworld seems to take advantage of people's terror and nervousness.

At this point, everything is gone. The curtain was in total darkness.

After a while, the curtain lit up again, but the color was extremely dark. If it weren't for the slight change in the black and white images, we would have thought that it was still the darkness of the film's cutscenes.

The imperceptible black-and-white changes on the screen give the illusion that the film tape is not broken. What is this shooting? Yang Muyun gestured to Yao Bing, signaling him to progress a little faster.

Yao Bing sped up the speed of the crank, and the black and white changes on the curtain began to speed up, becoming more and more obvious. Someone shouted, "It's fog." ”

We woke up. At that time, due to the limited shooting effect of the camera, the expressiveness of some scenes was very poor. For example, if the camera is in a thick fog, the picture will definitely be blurry and you won't be able to capture anything.

Dense fog?! I woke up suddenly, and according to Yao Bing's description, he saw clouds of dense fog in the underworld at that time.

Could it be that the picture that the camera appears now has reached the underworld?

It took a while for the fog to dissipate, and the image shook so much that you could see that the camera was moving at high speed in the cameraman's hand. I couldn't see the direction of movement clearly, and I didn't know whether to run out or go in, but I saw the fog rise and fall suddenly, and turn left and right, and I felt a little dizzy.

At this moment, far away from the screen, a person appeared. It was too far away, and the man was just a black silhouette, but it was a woman with long hair.

She seemed to be sitting cross-legged on a pile of things, she couldn't really tell what they were, they were all balls piled up. If you tell me to guess, I can guess with malice and a lot of time, it's a bunch of heads.

The woman who suddenly appeared was acting very strange, and she didn't know what she was doing. I saw her shaking her body and her hair flicking around.

At this time, the camera is fixed, and it can be inferred that the photographer saw this scene, and he did not go any further, but stopped in place. The picture is no longer shaky, and the distant scene, although blurry, is at least much more stable.

The woman kept moving like that, like an electrified doll. It was a very strange feeling because her movements were very stiff. Against the backdrop of a gloomy curtain, such a strange woman, the overall effect is terrifying and eerie.

The audience was silent, and everyone was so engrossed that they almost held their breath.

There's a big problem here, and once you realize it, it's very scary. This woman was obviously not one of the people who went with them, and the experimenters in this experiment were all male prisoners, and there were no women.

So where did this woman come from?

There is only one explanation, and this woman belongs to the underworld.

This is not a difficult conclusion to deduce. Those of us in the audience obviously guessed this.

Judging from the picture on the screen, the camera is fixed in place, and the photographer is adjusting the lens, slowly focusing, pushing to the maximum focal length, trying his best to photograph the woman.

Even so, I still can't see the woman's appearance and movements clearly. The face that occasionally flashes is almost a bunch of color blocks, mosaics. Her movements are also blurry, and it looks to me like a girl washing her long hair by the river. She tilted her head to one side, her long hair falling from her ears and falling into the water. Then, tilting his head in the other direction, long hair falling from his ear. She did this over and over again, as if the program was in an endless loop.

This footage lasted for five minutes. At first, we were a little fresh, but later, the mood completely changed to a kind of impatience and anxiety born of the unknown. Photographer, do you want to run or go up to take a closer look, can you have a good time? Just shoot in place, the camera has no head and no tail, and the atmosphere is the same as Hitchcock's film.

Yang Muyun couldn't sit still a little, and was just about to signal Yao Bing to speed up, when the change in the next scene made us all stunned.

The woman flew. The picture is still so blurry, the fog is filled, and it can still be clearly seen that she is flying.

She was wearing a long robe, which did not look like a period or a Chinese style. As far as I can understand, it's just my personal opinion, and it's a bit like an old Japanese geisha. I myself think this idea is a bit outrageous, and it is completely psychologically suggested. When the Japanese go to the shade, what they see is a Japanese ghost? So if the Americans came to do this experiment, would they see the Indians?

The woman floated slowly in the air, her head bobbing left and right, her hair flicking around. The whole body is like a slimy, long crawler. Why did she feel this way, because she didn't seem to have the weight of her whole body. To use a less appropriate analogy, it is similar to a patient with high paraplegia. Only the neck and above can move, and the rest of the area is paralyzed.

The more I looked, the more frightened I became, and the chill on my body gradually rose, and the hairs on my entire back stood up instantly. What the hell is this? Is it a ghost? Or is it some humanoid creature?

Suddenly, the woman's body straightened and suddenly disappeared. As she stepped forward, I seemed to hear a howl. This is of course impossible, the camera does not have recording equipment and it is impossible to make any sound. But in my ears, there was indeed a terrible scream.

When he was stunned, a huge woman's face suddenly appeared on the next scene! The face filled the entire curtain, and it appeared without warning. It's like skipping frames abruptly, skipping all the details, and there is no logical connection in between. All of us screamed involuntarily, especially a few women.

The most terrifying thing is that even if this face appears at such a close distance, it is still blurry, white and white, and there are no facial features at all.

Yao Bing's hand suddenly accelerated, and he wanted to quickly row this section over. The picture began to shake violently, and frame by frame the scene was like a white horse passing through a gap. At this time, I only heard Yang Muyun shouting: "Stop." ”

The picture freezes, and you can see that all the images are lying down. After a little thought, you can see that the camera has fallen to the ground at this time.

There was a thick fog, and the woman was long gone.

Yang Muyun asked loudly, "Which of you saw how this woman disappeared?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, the playback speed just now was so fast and so terrifying, no one was in the mood to stare at it, and they couldn't say anything. Yang Muyun said: "Go back and broadcast it again." ”

Someone grinned: "Mr. Yang, what is there to see?" “

Yang Miyun said angrily: "Didn't you see it? The moment the woman disappeared, an earthworm appeared in the picture! ”
