Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Abyss

This well is the same as the well of the Yin-Yang Temple, it is not very difficult to go down, and it is all made of bricks, and there are many concave and convex gaps in the horizontal and vertical directions. Lin Minhao and I climbed down the wall of the well carefully, and after a short time, we came to the bottom of the well.

The yellow light of the ghost head at the wellhead is still burning slowly, and the light emitted can indeed illuminate the bottom of the well. It was dark and foggy, the light was dim, and it was misty and it was impossible to see anything clearly.

Stepping on the bottom of the well, I feel soft under my feet. Lin Minhao and I stood in the thick fog of Hesse, with no direction at all. I whispered to him not to get separated and to be together as much as possible. He asked me what to do next. I didn't have an idea, so I told him that I had just seen someone here at the mouth of the well, and that I would see if I could find it now.

According to the direction in my memory, I probed the mist with both hands and came to the location where Hong Chen appeared. It's empty, there's nothing. Lin Minhao followed behind him and said, "Mr. Liu, it's not a way to find this. The fog is so big that we can see the distance is limited, and it is easy for us to get lost when we walk around like this. ”

He took the rope out of his backpack and tied each end around our waist so that we wouldn't get lost. Seeing this scene, I will smile and think of the scene of exploring the concept of yin and yang with Li Yang and Tongsuo a long time ago.

Lin Minhao and I briefly discussed, since there is a rope as a guarantee, there is no need to stay together. We simply went east and west, explored separately, and slowly moved forward.

His figure quickly disappeared into the thick fog, and I pulled the rope, which was a metal rope for mountaineering, very tough and very strong.

I looked around and saw that the fog wasn't high, just neck-high. Spreading to the skin, some are cool, and looking around, like falling clouds, nothing can be seen except the endless rolling mist.

I took a few steps aimlessly and found nothing. Looking back at the location of the wellhead, the light was still burning on it, and it was carried out from top to bottom. I'm a little bit back-off, and I can't find it after looking around, so I'll go back quickly. Just thinking about it, I saw Lin Minhao pulling the rope, breaking through the fog and coming to the front.

He was out of breath and frowned: "Mr. Liu, the situation is very wrong. ”

I looked at him in confusion.

He pulled me to crouch down: "Look at the ground. ”

Most of this fog collects above the knee and thinner the further down it goes. I squatted on the ground, saw the black ground, and looked closely, and sure enough, something was wrong. The ground was thick with black sand, and it felt like a blanket to step on. Strangely, the black sand is not static, but flows slowly in the direction ahead, at an imperceptible speed.

I just kind of understand, why did I find it there just now and I didn't see Hongchen. She was sitting on the ground, most likely carried away by the sand.

I patted Lin Minhao and pointed my finger in the direction of the sand flowing. He understood and nodded. We stood up and, with the feeling of our feet, slowly walked in the direction of the sand flowing.

There was silence all around, only billowing fog in front of you. No one knows what lies in the darkness of the road, and I am always on my toes, walking here, every step is like walking a tightrope. I don't know how long it took me, but I was getting more and more wrong. First of all, the temperature here is very low, getting colder and colder, and goosebumps are rising on my body; Another one still smells, the air is filled with an indescribable rotten smell, you can't detect it if you don't smell it, smell it hard, the smell enters the body, and it can make people sick for a long time.

I grabbed him, Lin Minhao was also very nervous, and came up to me and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Liu, what's wrong?" ”

I shook my head and said slowly, "I don't feel right. ”

"How?" He asked.

I said, "Are we going to go into the underworld without paying attention?" ”

Lin Minhao was startled and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Liu, this joke can't be made." ”

I wiped my face: "Be careful, be careful in everything." ”

The two of us walked forward for a while, the light was getting worse and worse, Lin Minhao was shivering from the cold, and I was too cold. I was about to signal him to go back, but he grabbed me and pointed ahead, trembling and speechless.

I squinted and saw nothing but billowing fog. Lin Minhao said in a low voice: "The fog has changed. ”

When I looked at it again, I was also shocked. Far ahead, the fog churned, and the middle and upper parts were extremely thin, as if the fog had drifted there, and suddenly an arched curved surface appeared. It's so weird that I can't figure out what's going on.

We knew that the situation was different, and we moved forward cautiously. His eyes were fixed on the change in the mist, trying to figure out how this could be. In this hellish place, there is not even a direction reference, and staring at the fog eyes is a little dazzling. As I was walking, I felt empty under my feet, and the whole person seemed to fall into the abyss with one step.

Suddenly it was dark, as if falling into deep water. This change happened in an instant, so fast that when I reacted, I realized that I was hanging in the air, and the rope at my waist was straight.

My heart was pounding, my back was soaking, and my scalp was tingling. Lin Minhao's anxious voice came from above the mist: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu." ”

"I'm here." My voice was so hoarse that I could barely open my mouth.

"Mr. Liu, this should be a cliff. I pull the rope and you climb up. He said.

I shuddered, and my hands touched. It is said to be a cliff, but you can't touch the cliff at all, it is empty, except for the fog. The only thing I could borrow was the rope, so I had to hold on to it with both hands, and my body was thrashing, trying to climb up.

After pulling for a while, both arms went numb. I don't exercise all year round, and I don't have any strength in my arms. It was sore and painful, like lead.

Lin Minhao was anxious on it: "Mr. Liu, don't move, I can't support it." ”

Look at this situation, don't climb around by yourself, it's better to wait for him to drag me up little by little, so that you can save some effort.

Not to mention, Lin Minhao, the rich second generation, is quite energetic. With my one hundred and sixty pounds of physique, he can really pull it. I leaned up a little bit, and finally I saw the top of his feet. Lin Minhao squatted on the ground, his body was backwards, his hands were staggered and pulling the rope, I grabbed the black sand on the ground, but I couldn't borrow any strength, but almost fell again.

The black sand flowed here and fell directly down the cliff.

I had to reach out and grab Lin Minhao's feet, Lin Minhao struggled to pull the rope, sweating profusely, and his face was red. I finally pulled up a little bit, and although the lower half of my body was still in the air, it was fine, and I lay on the ground and climbed up hard.

At this moment, his body suddenly sank, and his ankle seemed to be grabbed by something. It was so heavy that it clasped tightly to my ankles, dragging me down again. Lin Minhao shouted: "Mr. Liu, what's wrong with you?" ”

", something looks like it's holding me." I was also a little annoyed, so I grabbed the rope and retracted my legs hard. I actually pulled that thing up little by little.

I wrenched with that thing in mid-air, Lin Minhao roared, pulled back hard, and most of my body finally lay on the ground. At this point, I looked back and was so scared that I almost didn't pull into my pants.

I saw a withered hand stretching out from the bottom of the cliff of Hesse, grabbing my feet. I pulled so hard that my hand and arm were pulled out.

The arm was long, thin, and black, and looked like a dried corpse. Lin Minhao was also frightened: "This, what is this?" ”

I was covered in sweat, and seeing myself being dragged down a little bit, I yelled: "What are you doing stupidly, hurry up and help." ”

Lin Minhao pulled out a Swiss Army knife from his bag, ran to my feet, squatted on the ground, and cut the wrist of that hand with the knife. After a while, as if cutting a rope, the arm fell into the darkness with a "sudden" and was never seen again. And the severed hand was still clinging to my ankle.

I was lying on the ground, sweating profusely, and I couldn't breathe. , it scared the hell out of me.

Lin Minhao also sat next to him, panting heavily, his chest heaving.

After gasping for a long time, I sat up and patted him, and said in a low voice, "Xie Lu Xie." ”

Lin Minhao smiled: "Mr. Liu, we are a team, I won't see you in trouble." ”

I got my severed hand off and threw it into the cliff. We helped each other to our feet, took a closer look at our surroundings, and realized what was going on. Where the fog arches, right here. Because beyond that is the abyss, where the mist and quicksand travel to this point, they open the floodgates and roll down. These fogs, like black waterfalls, fall straight into the endless abyss.

No one knows what lies beneath this abyss, but it's certainly terrifying. Just now, a dried corpse appeared, and he insisted on dragging me down.

We walked cautiously along the edge of the cliff. There is no concept of space and time here, and I don't know how far I have gone, Lin Minhao suddenly pulled me: "Mr. Liu, look." ”

Following the direction of his finger, in the faint light, far away, it should be the opposite side of the abyss, and a strange scene can be seen. There was also an endless black mist, reaching the edge of the abyss, pouring down with the galloping momentum of ten thousand horses, all the way to the depths of the void of the abyss.

The most terrifying thing is that this abyss seems to have no bottom, it is all empty pitch black, the fog rolls down, can no longer rise out, and falls directly into it without a trace.

However, it was not right for me to figure it out. I still understand the common sense of geography, this is an urban area, if there is such a large space hidden under the ground, not to mention whether the surface can collapse, it will not be our turn to discover. The government's various construction teams have already typed the report.

The current situation can only show one point, this abyss, and even the entire Ghost Gate Pass formation, are not in the space of our understanding. The two worlds of yin and yang, people and ghosts, are inherently strange and inexplicable, and they cannot be measured by common sense.

This part of the underworld must exist in a space that we don't know.

I was thinking about it, Lin Minhao touched me, and his voice was a little trembling: "Mr. Liu, on the other side, there is someone on the other side." ”

I looked closely, and saw that on the other side of the abyss, in the rolling fog, there were indeed two figures, opposite us. I sighed, maybe the opposite side is the underworld, opposite each other in the air, it is the different paths of people and ghosts.

I don't know why, I looked at the figure opposite, the more I looked at it, the more uncomfortable it became, it felt very familiar, could this be someone I knew? A very strange feeling suddenly appeared in my heart, and I subconsciously stretched out my hand and beckoned to the other side. Unbeknownst to us, one of the two figures on the other side of the road seemed to raise his hand and beckoned to us.

At first, I was still feeling funny, and the ghost actually knew how to say hello, but suddenly a lightning bolt swept through my brain, and I slammed the spirit, and the person stood on the spot.

Damn, the two figures on the other side won't be me and Lin Minhao, right?
