Everyone was silent for a while, and Lantern Xiao spoke first: "I think let's go out and have a look, maybe there will be a discovery." ”

"But there are really ghosts out there!" Kong Xue said with some fear, "Don't you believe me?" ”

"No, it's not that we don't believe you," Lan Xiao shook his head, "The situation outside now may be very different from your situation at the time, there must be a special reason for this, in this state, we had better figure out the situation, otherwise we are likely to be in danger without knowing it." ”

I nodded, "I agree with Lantern Xiao, Kong Xue, you can wait for us here, and we'll be back soon." ”

Kong Xue pondered for a moment and nodded.

I glanced at Lantern Xiao, turned around and walked out. The wind was still strong outside, but the fog was much lighter, and I looked around and saw that it was just the top of a Wei Peak, not too high. And not very far from us, a huge mountain peak reached into the sky, and a strong sense of oppression made me suddenly have an urge to worship. Snow-white snow covered the top of the mountain, and it was a white world, as if the heavens were floating in the air. At that time, I didn't know that it was the highest peak of Qilian Mountain, Gangzewujie. That is, when he first went up the mountain, he let Dorjee say the legendary dragon holy land. Just when I was intoxicated, Lantern Xiao suddenly called me: "Zhuo Ran, Zhuo Ran!" Come and see! ”

I came back to my senses and walked in the direction of Lantern Festival, here is a dormitory-like tent, there are a few single beds in it, the bedding on it is still spread, but the quilt is lifted, and there are a few clothes scattered on the ground, as if the people inside have just gotten up and hurriedly went out, but all the items in the tent are covered with thick dust, obviously no one has touched it for a long time. There was a desk calendar on the table, and I blew the dust on it, and I found that it was a desk calendar from 1991, a full twenty years ago.

We walked into several other tents one after another, and the situation inside was about the same, everything was covered with a thick layer of dust.

Obviously, this camp must have been abandoned for many years. But if that's the case, who are the people they see and meet? Are there really ghosts? Or is it something else we don't know?

I pondered for a moment and said to Lantern Xiao, "Is it possible that Kong Xue actually had some kind of hallucination?" "I wouldn't dare to say something like this to Kong Xue in person, otherwise she would think that we didn't trust her.

Lantern Xiao nodded, "This statement should be a more reasonable explanation at present, but there are still a few things that don't make sense, if Kong Xue is an illusion, then how can she really know the location of that staircase?" And how did they get through that iron gate? How did you get down to the tomb from here? Unless there is a second channel. ”

I rubbed my temples, my mind in a state of confusion and I couldn't figure it out.

Another thing that we couldn't figure out was that we searched most of the camp, and the whole gave us the feeling that the whole camp was suddenly evacuated by everyone, and it didn't even have time to sort things out. Except for the absence of people, time seems to be frozen twenty years ago. This reminds me of the legend of the ghost ship at sea that I once saw in the news.

This camp was filled with a strange atmosphere, which made me and Lantern Xiao very uncomfortable, and our hearts were very depressed, neither of us spoke, and continued to search the camp until we came to the center of the camp, there was a house that was different, and it was different because it was not a tent, it was the only house in the entire camp made of cement except for the underground bunker.

The house has no windows, only an iron door is closed. We don't know what's inside, but we're sure it must be something unusual. The two of us leaned on the iron door and listened, but there was no sound inside. I stepped forward and pulled the iron door, and found that the iron door had moved, and it turned out that the iron door was not locked, but had been rusted for a long time.

Lantern Xiao and I worked together, and with a creak, the iron door was opened. A damp smell came to our faces, and we hurriedly covered our mouths and noses and avoided the door to prevent poisoning.

When the smell dissipated, we cautiously entered the room. It looks like this is supposed to be an archive room, with a lot of materials and documents scattered on the floor. Several filing cabinets stood against the wall, but they were now empty, and some untorn seals were still glued to the doors, and many of them could be vaguely recognized as having red stamps with the word "absolute" on them.

Top Secret Archives! We were all a little surprised that there were top-secret files in such a remote camp, and it seems that we guessed correctly, this camp is really not simple, this should be the confidential room. It's just a pity that the valuable documents have been removed.

We didn't give up and continued to look inside, hoping to find useful clues. We walked to the innermost part of this confidential room, and Lantern Xiao suddenly exclaimed, "Damn! There's a dead man here! ”

I turned my head to look, and sure enough, behind the innermost filing cabinet, there was a dead man lying on his stomach. Due to the low temperature here, the corpse did not decompose, but had completely weathered and dried up, turning into a dried corpse.

With the previous experience, we already have a certain immunity to this kind of dead body, and we are not very afraid. We cautiously walked over and crouched down to observe the corpse.

Under this look, the two of us were all stunned, because this person was indeed wearing a 87-style military uniform, which was the same as what Kong Xue said, which showed that what Kong Xue said was true, and what she saw was what she had really experienced. Then this thing is too unbelievable!

What makes us even more creepy is that the material of this military uniform on the corpse looks like a wool-polyester blend. As a military enthusiast, I still know a little about these, and the fabric of the clothes of the division-level cadres in the 87-style military uniform is wool-polyester blend. Then this shows that this person should be the head of the regiment in Kong Xue's mouth!

I told this to Lantern Xiao, and Lantern Xiao couldn't help but gasp, and we both looked at the neck of the dead corpse, because Kong Xue had told us that the head of the regiment had a red scar on his neck.

I couldn't help but pray that there were no scars on the corpse's neck, so that we would at least have reason to comfort ourselves: not everything Kong Xue saw was real, maybe some of it was her hallucination.

I gently turned the dead man lying on his stomach with a short knife, and a wound that had dried up appeared in front of our eyes.

Our hearts sank, the current situation has completely confirmed Kong Xue's statement, before joining us, Kong Xue really went to this camp, met this person, and had a conversation. After just a few hours, the entire camp was deserted, the personnel were nowhere to be found, and the only regimental commander left was a dried corpse.

I was overwhelmed by what was happening in front of me. But I thought this was the climax of the development of things, but this was not the case, Lantern Xiao next to him pointed to the dried corpse, his face was like earth, and he said with some trembling: "Zhuo... Zhuoran, you... Look at his chest. ”

When I came back to my senses and looked closely, I saw that there was a knife stuck in the left chest of this dried corpse.

"This man turned out to be murdered!" Bizarre things came one after another, and I felt like my heart couldn't stand it a little.

"Okay, okay!" I tried to compose myself, took a few deep breaths, and told myself that it was better to deal with people than with ghosts, at least we had knives and guns in our hands. The psychological suggestion really worked, I gradually calmed down, looked at the knife carefully, looked at the pattern on the handle, I judged that this should be a Tibetan knife, the blade was almost all inserted into the chest, a knife killed, I can see that the murderer is very strong, and the shot is very fast.

At a glance, I saw that the corpse's right breast pocket was bulging, and I reached out to touch it, and took out a small diary from it. This discovery made me and Lantern Xiao overjoyed, it seems that this man liked to keep a diary before his death, and there must be some useful information left in his diary. I carefully put the diary in my pocket, and after searching again, we made sure that there was no more information, so we decided to go back to the room of the underground bunker first, so as not to worry Kong Xue, after all, we have been out for a long time.

As soon as she saw us enter the ground bunker, Kong Xue hurriedly said, "Why have you been there for so long?" How did you find anything? ”

"We searched the entire camp, and we didn't see anyone except a dried corpse." I glanced at Kong Xie and said.

"How so?" Kong Xue said, "I really saw it when I came. ”

"We know," I nodded, "because we've confirmed that the dried corpse is the head you said it was." ”

"But I saw not only the regimental leader, but many others! If there are ghosts, then where are the bodies of the others? ”

Lantern Xiao waved his hand, "I said it a long time ago, it's not haunted at all!" There are no ghosts either, and there must be a reason for this that we don't know yet. ”

"Oh, yes!" Lantern Xiao turned to me and said, "Zhuo Ran, take a look at what is written in that diary?" ”

"Hmm!" I reached into my pocket and pulled out the diary, and gently turned the first page, which clearly recorded the events of that day:

On March 12, 1991, our regiment received the task and set off for Qilian Mountain. I can't write about the purpose of this trip, because it's a top-secret mission! All I can say is that this mission is a little difficult for me to accept and understand! We are deeply taught by Marx's materialism and do not believe that such a thing can happen in the world. But we are soldiers, and it is our duty to obey orders, so I am determined to complete this mission! The military region has sent four comrades-in-arms who have served in the Qilian Mountain outpost to serve as guides for this mission, and we can have a good exchange with them tomorrow.
