Chapter 39: Escape
The staircase has been around for an unknown number of years, and it creaks as if it would collapse at any moment, and I remind everyone to be careful, it may not be safe down there, and maybe the little moving corpse is hidden underneath.
Soon, there was a thud from the upper door, followed by a crashing sound, and what we should have used to reach the door was pushed in. We know that those things, and the things with lanterns, whether they are humans or ghosts, are above us.
In the dark, Gu Wenmin suddenly extinguished the lights and lowered his voice; "Let's see what happens."
As soon as the lights went out, it was dark and dreary, both under the stairs and at the entrance of the stairs. We breathed and listened to the footsteps above our heads, our hearts beating like drums, and the footsteps went straight to the top of our heads, where we had found the entrance.
At this moment, my heart sank, and I stared at the entrance.
A faint light came through the entrance, and I could faintly see a lantern emitting this yellow light, and the hand holding the lantern was thin and sallow, and the skin was covered with bones, and I could even see its blue nails because it was not far away.
Immediately after, next to the lantern, a human face and a human head appeared, lying at the entrance, looking down at us.
Its face is sallow, under the light, the corpse oil on its face reflects a slippery and greasy texture, and its two yellow cloudy eyes turn slightly to look at the four of us, as if a person is looking at the wings and duck legs before eating roast duck, and comparing which one is more delicious.
But if it wants to come down, it has to crawl in, and as it crawls, I'm fully confident that I can kill it.
So I said, "Go on and see if there is any other way out, and I am here to stop it." As soon as the words fell, the thing had already begun to climb down the stairs, and I yelled at a few people to hurry away, so I picked up the guy and rushed up, and before the thing had yet to climb in, the threat was not great, and immediately hit it with a rod on its fragile neck.
This thing has no muscles, the bones are covered by the epidermis, and when the rod is knocked down, there is a thud, the head is suddenly half off, and a breath of black gas erupts from the mouth.
Fortunately, I have experience this time, and after the fight, I dodged away, so it was not sprayed, because it crawled half by me to solve, so the entrance was blocked, and the rest of the corpses couldn't climb for a while, I shouted Luckily, hurry up to chase the footsteps of Tofu and others.
The bottom of this staircase is also a wooden structure, but not on the first floor, it should be a separate space, and there are a lot of miscellaneous items piled up in it, rotten wooden boxes and other things. When I caught up, the tofu trio was looking for a way out, and he said anxiously: "Damn, this is actually a dead end, there is no way." ”
Gu Wenmin seemed to have expected it, and said: "The underground warehouse is originally used to store things, who will open the door here?" But fortunately, this is wooden, let's find the right direction and open a hole by ourselves. ”
I hurriedly glanced at it, and sure enough, it was pitch black and there was no way out, so I said loudly: "Wen Min is right, let's do it quickly." ”
The outside of the village is facing the west, we found the right position, then from the warehouse to write the heavy object, hit the wooden wall hard, the four of them together, to use the strength of the milk, the tiger's mouth was shocked numb, the shoulder was hot pain, did not dare to stop, a few times, then I heard a bang, sawdust splashed, the western wooden wall was made by us out of a big hole.
In the light of the flashlight, there was a patch of weeds outside the wooden wall, with water droplets on the grass, and no buildings in the distance, so it seemed that this was the direction outside the village. I breathed a sigh of relief, and climbed out first, only to see that I was in front of a barren grass, and in front of me was the village where we had been, and not far away was the route we had taken before entering the village, and the lanterns were still hanging high.
A few people crawled out of the hole, and rolled in the grass a few times, they were covered in mud, regardless of the handsome, beautiful and ugly before, now they are all big faces. After this night, no one wanted to stay in this place any longer, and was afraid that those things would leave the village, so he immediately picked the direction, ran wildly in the mud under the dark night with a dim flashlight, and as for the child he saw before, he never appeared again.
I don't know how far I ran out in this breath, my tired legs were as soft as noodles, and I was out of breath, so I had to stop, and the previous Yin and Yang Liubu Village had already disappeared from view.
Tofu breathed hurriedly and said: "It's so dangerous, it's good to find the hole under the bed, otherwise I'm afraid we would have died in that place this time." Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of the corpse of the disappeared child, and said to myself: If it hadn't appeared in that location at that time, we wouldn't have thought that there would be a secret passage under the bed.
Is the child the corpse of the old man, did the child help us, or did the corpse chaser who died in the bed appear to manipulate the corpse and guide us to escape?
This qiē seemed too strange, and I had a lot of doubts in my heart, but I couldn't say it for a while.
Gu Wenmin wiped the muddy water on his face, his expression revealed tiredness, looking at the dark sky above us, and his tone was full of worry: "I always feel that something is wrong with this place." ”
I have already discovered this, at this moment, the watch on my wrist shows that it is five o'clock in the morning, that is, since yesterday at noon, the sky has not cleared until now, and there is not a trace of sunshine.
But now that the rain has stopped, what is the darkness that envelops us?
Tofu made a guess that made everyone feel cold, and he said, "Could it be that we are still in the ghost gate?" ”
Everyone was silent for a while, and the hairy rooster suddenly began to gurgle in his stomach, as if he was hungry, and the tofu was not angry, and said, "Didn't you eat it at night?" The hairy rooster covered his stomach, hissing and gasping in his mouth, and said, "It's not hunger, it's pain, no, it seems to have diarrhea." So he walked away from us, hid in the grass, took off his pants in a hurry, and after squatting down, he could not see anyone.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Wenmin also frowned violently, and said in a low voice: "No, I don't seem to ...... either" She said, holding her stomach and running away. Tofu seemed to remember something, and immediately showed an expression like eating a fly, and said: "That Yin and Yang Liubu Village is full of dead people, so what are those leftovers we ate last night?" Why did I suddenly remember the food that the White Bone Spirit gave to Tang Seng? ”
As soon as the words fell, almost unanimous, both of us felt unbearable colic in the abdomen, I used to hear people tell ghost stories, saying that they ate things given by ghosts, in fact, those things are blindfolding, you think you are eating some delicacies from the mountains and seas, in fact, it may be some clods, candles, straw paper, earthworms, grasshoppers, toads and other things, light diarrhea, Yan zhòng dead people are possible.
Several people had diarrhea, and they could barely stand on their feet, and after waiting for the abdomen to finally subside, it was almost like having a serious illness, and they found a cliff in a sheltered place, and fell asleep together.
I think that if we continue to wander under the cliff like this, we will probably never get out again. There are so many accidents that can happen here.
When I woke up, I smelled a scent, an irritating fasting gurgling sound, and I was instantly nauseous. When I opened my eyes, it was Gu Wenmin cooking. She knows how to be very considerate, and the food that night was not much, and the remaining three of us were all big men, and the food demand was large, so she deliberately ate very little, and most of the things went into the stomach of tofu and hairy rooster, so now, on the contrary, her body is better than all of us.
When she saw me wake up, she said, "I just went to pick up some mushrooms, let's eat them." When she looked down, she had set up a small stove with three stones, and a bonfire had been lit with wood underneath, and a thin slate of stone had been set up on top of it, on which were boiled by the fire, there were fried mushrooms, and eggs, and there were many eggshells of birds' eggs beside them.
I couldn't close my mouth in surprise for a while, and gave a thumbs up and praised: "Gu Da Beauty, I rarely admire others, you are one." ”
Gu Wenmin smiled, seemed a little embarrassed, and said lightly: "I often take pictures everywhere, sleep outside, and often do these things, it's nothing, but you, are really bold enough." To be honest, if you hadn't been calm in the village last night, I really wouldn't have a backbone. ”
I felt very comfortable when I heard this, and a warm feeling rose faintly, and without speaking, I picked up some fried bird eggs and mushrooms to eat. Mushrooms are natural ingredients, no seasonings, the taste is very attractive, tofu and hairy rooster are quickly awakened by the fragrance, pale face, dangling vain steps to grab the food.
It was raining continuously, there was no shortage of mushrooms or anything, we roasted slowly, and after eating, we felt that the body had diarrhea and collapsed, and regained strength, and the whole person seemed to be reborn.
Several people rested together, and Tofu continued to slap Gu Beauty's horse, and the sky was all over the world. At this moment, there was no wind or rain, we hid under the stone cliff to rest, and our hearts that had been tense were finally completely relaxed.
While they were resting, I began to think, what is going on in this ghost place, and how should we get out?
