Volume 1 The Land of Yama Chapter 39 The Footsteps Behind You

Hearing the whistle, Kong Xue and I were shocked, but then I understood, because the whistle has undergone a familiar change, this is the code when I played basketball with Lantern Festival in college, through the whistle we can know each other's position on the court at any time, and the cooperation is very tacit, so I immediately judged that the person who came must be Lantern Festival.

It seems that they came back to find me during the Lantern Festival, and now there are four of us in total, and there is a lot of strength in the number of people, and I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and I also whistled a few times to tell the Lantern Festival our location. Looking at Kong Xue's puzzled face, I explained: "This is the code code for my connection with Lantern Festival when I was in college, hehe." ”

"Oh," Kong Xue nodded, "It's really a human saying, and a beast has a beast!" ”

"I ......"

Gradually, the footsteps approached, and a flashlight came in, and it was indeed Lantern Festival, but I was a little surprised that Lantern Festival was alone.

As soon as Lantern Xiao came in, he breathed a long sigh of relief, "Thank goodness that I finally found you!" Lantern Xiao looked to the side again and shouted in surprise: "Kong Xue!" Is it really you! Why are you here! ”

After experiencing so many things together, Kong Xue also smiled at Lantern Festival rarely: "It's me!" As for how I got here, that's a long story! ”

"By the way, why are you alone? What about Wenmo? I asked Lantern Festival in some surprise.

"I don't know, we're separated." Lantern Xiao shook her head.

"Why are you separated?" In such a place, everyone can only deal with all kinds of emergencies when they get together, and it is easy to be dangerous when acting alone, Wenmo should not be unexpected, but why should he be separated from Lantern Xiao?

I asked Lantern Xiao, "Did you encounter any situation?" ”

Lantern Xiao frowned, "I can't tell you this, when did you fall behind?" ”

As soon as I heard the anger, I didn't fight, "Just after passing the stone gate, I delayed for a while, and I couldn't catch up with you." You still have the face to mention this, why don't you wait for me? Leave me alone and run away on my own! ”

Lantern Xiao's face changed, "What! You haven't been following from that position? ”

I was really speechless, "Don't you know if there is anyone behind you?!" ”

Lantern Xiao's face became ugly, "I'll go!" I... I really don't know, because... Because, there are footsteps behind me all the time! ”

"What?" I was also surprised, "That's definitely not me, I'm already far away from you after passing through the stone gate." ”

"If it's not you, what the hell is it that follows me?"

I finally understood why they didn't come back to me after a long time, because there was something that had been following them, and they thought it was me. The thought of this sends chills through my heart.

Lantern Xiao was also stunned, and cold sweat oozed out of his forehead.

I asked, "Then when did you find out that I wasn't following?" ”

"Huh?" Lantern Xiao woke up in shock, "Yes... It was Wenmo, he suddenly stopped in front of him, and I almost hit him at that time, he stopped and looked back at the same time, I also looked back, and I found that it was quietly dark behind me, and there was no shadow of you at all. ”

Lantern Xiao told me that after Wenmo stopped, he looked back and immediately pulled out the short knife on his waist. Wen Mo looked around, but there was still no movement in the darkness. Wen Mo closed his eyes slightly. Lantern Xiao didn't know why at the time, but he didn't dare to ask more. I can guess Wenmo's intentions, because eyesight can't play much role in such light, and Wenmo at this time, it is better to close his eyes and use his other senses to gain insight into everything around him to the greatest extent.

Soon Wen Mo suddenly opened his eyes, slashed his middle finger with the tip of the knife, and picked out a few drops of blood. Stretched out his hand and pressed Lantern Xiao against the wall, and said in his ear: "Listen to my command, you immediately go back the same way to find the others and leave here as soon as possible!" ”

Lantern Xiao felt a strange chill suddenly appear around him at this time, coupled with this strange atmosphere, he felt a little frightened, and hearing Wen Mo's words, Lantern Xiao hurriedly nodded.

But before Lantern Xiao came back to his senses, he heard Wen Mo suddenly say: "Run!" Immediately after that, with a flick of his wrist and the tip of the knife slashing upward, Wen Mo galloped away in the darkness in front of him, and at this time, Lantern Xiao felt a cold wind chasing over his head. Suddenly, the chill disappeared, and there was a dead silence all around.

Lantern Xiao was stunned for more than ten seconds, then remembered Wen Mo's words, turned around and ran along the tomb road when he came.

I nodded in surprise, it seemed, "Then how did you find us?" ”

Lantern Xiao pointed to the FMG9 submachine gun at Kong Xue's feet, "It's gunshot, I followed the sound when I heard it." By the way, why did you shoot and what danger did you encounter? ”

I smiled wryly, "It's me, I was almost beaten into a sieve by the eldest lady." ”

Kong Xue glanced at me, "It's dark all around, you suddenly broke in, and there is no lighting, how do I know if it's a person or a ghost, and I don't know that you are also here, of course I shoot!" ”

"Haha, that makes sense!" Lantern Festival punched Kong Xue a thumbs up, "By the way, how the hell did you get here?" ”

So Kong Xue told Lantern Xiao about her experience again. Lantern Xiao was stunned for a while when she heard this, "This thing is weird!" ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense? It's all haunted, isn't it weird! I said.

Lantern Xiao waved his hand, "It's weird because it's haunted!" ”

"If you have something to say, don't beat around the bush!"

Lantern Xiao made an OK gesture, "First of all, you have to understand what a ghost is." The kind of ghosts played in TV and movies are all made up to scare people! Real ghosts don't come easily. "The Book of Rites and Sacrifices" wrote: All living beings will die, and the dead will return to the earth, which is called the ghost road! It is recorded in "On Heng and Ordering Ghosts": Ghosts, the essence of old things! I have seen some ancient books without names, and there are similar records on them, that is, to become a ghost, you need to enter the earth, and this soil is not necessarily buried in the earth, in this is a broad statement, which means to enter the land of yin, after a long time of baptism of yin essence, called the so-called essence of old things, in this case can become a ghost. ”

Lantern Festival spittled and said, I was really impressed by him, I didn't expect this kid to have not been in vain in the past two years, and he really had a set. Kong Xue also couldn't stop nodding.

Seeing our focused eyes, Lantern Xiao was also a little proud, and then said: "So I said, according to the environment and location described by Kong Xue, it is basically impossible for ghosts to appear. ”

Kong Xue was a little unhappy, "Then you mean I'm lying?" ”

"No, no, that's not what I meant." Lantern Xiao hurriedly explained, "I think something is wrong, it's best to go up and have a look." I think this weird barracks should have some connection with this matter, maybe I can find some clues, at least go up to find out the truth. ”

Actually, I think what Lantern Festival said makes sense, but Kong Xue doesn't know if she will go back.

"This..."For Kong Xue, who had just escaped from there, he was indeed a little embarrassed.

"Or you wait for us here, and we'll come when we go." Lantern Xiao came up with an idea. I thought this was really a bad idea, and sure enough, after Kong Xue looked around at the darkness around her, "Forget it, I'll go with you!" ”
