Chapter 2 The moon is like blood
The earth was pitch black, the moonlight was like blood, no thunder could be heard, no raindrops could be seen, and the air was filled with the smell of rot, the smell of rotting corpses, and the smell of other rots.
There was a creepy sound in the distance, very desolate, and there was a roar, the world returned to quiet, the wind and rain disappeared, leaving only the dark night, the blood-colored bright moon, very weird.
In the blood-colored moonlight, the earth was bubbling with netherworld fire, as if it had come to hell.
The mournful cries kept wafting through the space, and the white mist drifted away under the thick blood-colored moonlight, layer after layer made people feel very unreal, but they scattered and gathered, like yin spirits shuttling back and forth.
Rumble......
A loud bang fell from the sky and broke the original peace.
I saw that in this strange place, suddenly a large object fell from the sky, the dust was all over the sky, the crows flew in horror, and the roar of the beast echoed in the distance. Because for many years, no other creature has ever been in this place.
"Ah......h
The screams were endless, and the big object at this time was Jiang Chen's big car that was swallowed in, everything seemed to be so incredible in this strange place, everything seemed to be much lighter, otherwise the car would definitely become scrap metal.
"Are you all right? Where is this?" someone climbed out of the damaged vehicle and looked at the unfamiliar environment, his face instantly pale.
"Are you all alright?" asked Bruce Lee as everyone escaped from the abandoned car.
"Fatty, rats, are you all right," Jiang Chen looked at his best brother and was very uneasy.
"Boss, are we alright, where are we now?" the fat man and the mouse wondered.
"Where are we now? I'm going home," looking at the blood-colored moon, the cloudy earth, and the crows wailing, some people couldn't help crying, and quickly took out their mobile phones to make a call, but there was no signal at all.
"Okay, let's count it, are we all together?" Jiang Chen looked at everyone, and some of the timid girls were trembling, and a few trembling people gathered together.
"Fatty, rat me, plus Su Rou and her sisters, and Ning Xiao and the four of them, Qi Xiaonuo, Bruce Lee, Lu Xiaoxiao, Ai Ting, eighteen people?"
Hey, what's going on, weren't there twenty-one people with the driver when we came? The driver died, but there were two more people?
Jiang Chen's words made everyone's hair stand on end.
"They don't have to crawl out yet!" said one of them, who had a better relationship with them, and returned to the carriage to look for it.
"Ah, they, they're dead?"
"What's going on?" everyone panicked in disbelief.
Looking at the inside of the carriage, their eyes were wide, they must have seen something terrible before they died, there was blood in their necks, and the driver's chest was pierced by a spear, and the death was extremely terrifying.
At this moment, not to mention other people, even the most daring fat men and rats are grabbing Jiang Chen, and even Jiang Chen feels a chill down his spine.
Whew......
The wind is blowing, roaring like a ghost, making people feel a tingling sensation when they listen to it.
"Ahh......h
Looking at the unfamiliar scene, the bloody picture, her side face was white and flawless, and her dark pupils were still dripping with tears quietly. Holding her head to the side, she stood there crying. Silent. Pitiful.
The crying girl's name is Liu Yiyi, who used to be a gentle girl in the class, but at this moment, her heart is even more terrifying.
"Okay, stop crying, now you know what's the use of crying? Now we have to figure out how to get out of this hellish place. Ning Xiao's heart was even more confused by the burst of crying, and he couldn't help but shout.
"Ning Xiao is right, Yiyi, don't cry, why should we discuss how to leave this place now. Bruce Lee also said in surprise.
"Sister Rou, are you all right?" Jiang Chen looked at the Su family sisters who were hugging each other with a pale face.
"Jiang Chen, we're fine, thank you. After all, Su Rou is also a strong woman, and she quickly returned to normal.
"We're not going to Hades!," someone muttered in a low, confused voice.
In the distance, a mournful voice entwined the wind, filling the sky with goosebumps.
Tick, tick......
The sound of flowing water is more like an outlaw ghost at this moment, haunting everyone's heart.
"Your uncle in the underworld, suspicious," quickly pack up your things, bring food, water, and some field tools.
Jiang Chen sorted out his backpack, looked at his mobile phone, and sure enough, there was no signal, and took out a dagger for self-defense, which was also an indispensable tool for Jiang Chen in the field.
"Look, what's ahead?" the fat man pointed to the front.
"It looks like a mountain, and there seems to be a village at the bottom of the mountain?"
Following the direction pointed by the fat man, there was really a big mountain faintly, looming in the white mist.
"Let's go, let's go over and take a look, maybe you can still see people," Bruce Lee also agreed.
"It's unlucky to have encountered such a thing," Ning Xiao said to himself very unhappily.
Along the way, the ancient trees were towering, but they were all withered trunks, as if they had been destroyed by a fire.
"Smack......
A crisp sound sounded under his feet, "Ning Shao, you have a skull under your feet," Xu Nianhao pulled Ning Xiao and said.
"What, what the hell is this place, there are so many skeletons, there must have been a lot of deaths here. Ning Xiao kicked the skull, and he didn't have the fear before.
"What the hell is this place, not only are there so many skulls, but also some bones? "A lot of people are full of confusion.
"Ah......h
A terrible scream came from behind, causing everyone to stop, and in this moment of silence, everyone's heartbeat accelerated.
Jiang Chen counted a few people and found that there was one person missing, which was so inexplicable that it made people feel furious.
"Wang Tian......"
Someone shouted, but no matter how much they shouted, there was no echo from Wang Tian, only an empty echo and a strange wind.
"There can't really be a ghost!" At this time, even the rat can't be calm.
"Everyone get closer, why don't they hurry to the town in front of them, saying that they may not be saved. Jiang Chen shouted at everyone.
Along the way, there were bones everywhere, and the smell of rotting corpses everywhere made people's hearts furious.
"This town seems to be an ancient city?" a girl was full of doubts.
"Qiao Yi, isn't your house archaeological?Do you know what age it is?" asked the woman next to her, looking at her.
Qiao Yi's face was full of blood, obviously frightened.
"I don't know? It seems like it's a long history. ”
"Don't worry about going first, let's go in," Jiang Chen said first, and they entered the ancient city with the fat man.
Inside the ancient city, it was very dilapidated, there was nothing, some were also cobwebs, and there was a disgusting smell of blood.
"The age of this ancient city seems to be a long time ago?" Even Jiang Chen's likes to study history and culture, and he can't see the clues.
"Listen, there seems to be a chanting voice in front of you. ”
"It seems that there really is, go over and take a look. Ning Xiao took Xu Nianhao and the four of them ran over.
"It seems that this is a temple, how can there be a temple in the ancient city?" Su Rou was puzzled.
"Count the number of people, everyone, take a rest here first, and have something to eat. Jiang Chen also said with palpitations.
"Why are there three people missing?" Lu Xiaoxiao's face was full of incredulity.
"What's the matter, what about them?" Bruce Lee counted the number of people again, and now there were only fifteen people, and before he knew it, two were dead, and three were gone.
"What now, there won't really be a ghost!" Liu Yiyi cried out.
"Sister Su, I have a bottle of mineral water, you can drink it first, you've run so far. Jiang Chen looked at the two sisters squatting on the ground, and there was no longer their usual laughter.
"Thank you, Jiang Chen" Looking at Jiang Chen's smile, Su Rou suddenly felt a lot better.
"Jiang Chen, do you still have any mineral water, bring us some too?" Looking at Jiang Fan who handed Su Rou and them mineral water, Liu Wei asked.
"No, these are the last two bottles," Jiang Chen said as he gave the fat man the water.
"Jiang Chen, there must be food in your backpack, let's share it with everyone!" Ning Xiao also asked.
Jiang Chen listened to Ning Xiao's words, looked at the backpack, and there were only some chocolates and ham sausages, the chocolates were given to Su Rou and the other girls one by one, and the ham sausages were left for himself and the fat man.
"Jiang Chen, what do you mean, why don't you give it to us," Ning Xiao roared.
"The thing is mine, I can give it to whoever I want?" Jiang Chen said unceremoniously.
"Ning Xiao, I have some food here, you can take it," At this time, Lu Xiaoxiao also took some potato chips and snacks to Ning Xiao and them.
"There's not much food running out now, I don't know if I can get out alive," Jiang Chen looked up at the blood-colored Mingyue with emotion.
Jiang Chen looked at Qi Xiaonuo, she was also haggard at this time, but he didn't go up and say a word, maybe it would be best to become a stranger after separation.
"Have you noticed that the surroundings of this ancient temple don't seem to be very cold anymore?
Bruce Lee's words made everyone present feel active in their hearts, and only then did they look at the ancient temple.
There is a statue of the Buddha in the center of the ancient temple, surrounded by eighteen Arhats, it is conceivable that the ancient temple must have been prosperous in the past, but now it is a mess and dilapidated.
Although the ghosts were crying outside, they were not affected in any way in this ancient temple, and they could hear the Sanskrit sounds, but they couldn't find the sound that came from.
Here, there is a string of Buddhist beads on the altar, exuding a charming brilliance, as if the voice of the scriptures came from here.
Jiang Chen held this string of Buddhist beads in his hand, each of which was larger than two fingers, exuding Buddha light, and there was a sound of chanting coming from it.
"With this Buddha bead, it is estimated that you will not be afraid of the weirdness outside," Ning Xiao looked at the Buddha bead in Jiang Chen's hand and was very hungry.
"Jiang Chen, you give the Buddha beads to everyone, maybe we won't be afraid of the weirdness outside,"
"Ning Xiao, are you sick, why do you have the things you can get," the mouse said angrily as he looked at Ning Xiao's face.
"That's right, Jiang Chen, what Ning Xiao said is right," some people echoed.
Jiang Chen glanced at them coldly and didn't say anything, a total of eighteen Buddha beads were divided into one Buddha bead for each of them, Jiang Chen gave more Buddha beads to the fat man and the mouse, and kept two for himself.
"Jiang Chen, why do you have two Buddha beads in your hands, I see you are taking some out!" Liu Wei said spittingly.
Get lost......
Jiang Chen only has a simple word, which can see how angry he is in his heart.
"Okay, Liu Wei, it's good that Jiang Chen found something for us, you can also find this ancient temple, and there are other things. At this time, Lu Xiaoxiao came out to play a round.
Listening to Lu Xiaoxiao's words, everyone took action.
"Fatty, rats, you should also hurry up and see if there are any other things, and there is a greater hope of surviving when the time comes. Jiang Chen also urged.
Everyone kept rummaging through the ancient temple, and they were about to dig three feet into the ground.
Jiang Chen touched the Buddha beads in his hand, which looked like the legendary relics.
Hey, there seems to be something under the stone statue of the Buddha, Jiang Fan used a dagger to gouge in front of the Buddha a few times, and a small Buddha statue appeared in front of Jiang Chen's eyes.
The Buddha statue is bronze-colored, very quaint, and I can't see anything peculiar, but when I grasp it with my hand, my heart is peaceful and quiet, and my mind is more like someone chanting sutras. Jiang Chen didn't think much about putting it on his body.
"Fat man, did you find anything?" asked Jiang Chen, the fat man who looked at his dusty face.
"Damn, don't talk about it, some things turn to dust when you touch them, and I don't know how old this ancient temple is," the fat man said as he shook off the dust on his body.
The mouse also nodded, indicating that it was all the same.
Jiang Chen watched everyone run out in disgrace, and really didn't find anything.
When I came to the courtyard of the ancient temple, a withered old tree stood in the ancient temple, but it was a little desolate.
Could this be the legendary Bodhi tree? But it's still dead.
"Let's go, why can we only go to the big mountain in front of us at the moment, and there may not be a chance to go out," Jiang Chen looked at the majestic mountain in front of him and said lightly.
"Okay, let's go, wealth is in the sky, life and death are fate," Bruce Lee also echoed.
There is life and there is death, and it is not fate to die sooner.
