Chapter 27: The Grave by the Roadside
Huang Dawei said to Meng Fan: "After I came to this road inexplicably, I had a feeling that I could only go forward, because I couldn't walk left and right, and I always felt like I was going to die when I walked backwards." ”
Meng Fan said: "I feel the same way, but I can see you behind you just now, and you can't see me when you look back in front, which proves that there should be a way in the darkness behind us." But even if I knew that there was a way in the darkness behind, I still had a gut feeling that if I went backwards, I would die! ”
Huang Dawei pointed to the front right and said, "The reason why I stopped was because there was an abnormality ahead." Unlike the road we have walked before, if you look closely, there is actually a small fork in the road in front of you! ”
When Meng Fan heard this, he looked over carefully, and sure enough, he saw a fork in the road on the right.
This fork in the road is on the right side of the yellow mud path, and it is a small vertical fork road, which is also a yellow mud road, but it is narrower, only less than half a meter wide.
├
That's what it looks like.
Meng Fan took two steps forward and came to a fork in the road.
Huang Dawei also followed and said: "This fork in the road is obviously walkable, unlike it, you can't go left and right." So I wondered if I should take a fork in the road, after all, on this main road, I haven't found anything until now, this is the first time there has been a fork in the road, maybe there may be a turnaround. ”
Meng Fan looked at this fork in the road, frowned and said: "This kind of fork in the road may be a turning point or a crisis. For now, walking on the main road, at least there is no danger, but entering the fork in the road is not necessarily. ”
Huang Dawei shook his head and said: "But this main road seems to have no end, and if we keep going like this, it is very likely that we will consume ourselves to death and starve to death." ”
Meng Fan asked, "Do you want to venture to the fork in the road?" ”
Huang Dawei said: "I was hesitating, so I stopped here and didn't move." Your appearance is an accident, uh, an unexpected surprise, the power of two people is always greater than one, so I want to hear your opinion. ”
After listening to Huang Dawei's words, Meng Fan also fell into hesitation.
As he himself said, this could be a turning point or a crisis!
After hesitating for a moment, Meng Fan gritted his teeth and said, "Even if we keep walking on the main road, it is impossible to get out of this ghost place, and we will die in the end!" Since there is a fork in the road, there must be a reason, maybe it has something to do with leaving this place, and I think we should look into it. ”
Huang Dawei smiled.
"That's what I thought too."
After speaking, he took the initiative to take a step and walked into the fork in the yellow mud.
Meng Fan did not hesitate and followed.
This Huang Dawei should be just an ordinary person, not an awakened person, but he is very bold and courageous here, and he is much more reckless than himself, an awakened person.
One thing to say, if Meng Fan encountered this situation alone, he might choose to move forward and not dare to walk into this fork in the road.
It's still the same truth, there is more strength in people, and the courage has become bigger.
After walking into the fork in the road, Meng Fan glanced back and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He patted Huang Dawei.
Huang Dawei turned his head with a smile on his face.
Because it is not dark behind them, the way they came is still there.
This means that if they encounter a dangerous situation, they can go back the way they came, back to the main road.
"It looks like we didn't make the wrong choice." Huang Dawei said with a smile.
Meng Fan also thinks so, everyone is like this, and it is better to have a way out than no way out.
The two of them had barely walked five meters before their footsteps stopped.
Because they saw that after stepping on this fork in the road, it was no longer dark on both sides of the road, and something could be seen faintly.
At this moment they stopped because there was a grave less than five meters away from them.
Although there are no street lights on the fork in the road, there is a faint light around, and it is not clear where the light is coming from.
These rays of light allow them to vaguely see what is going on around them.
The appearance of a tomb made the two of them stop unconsciously.
To be honest, at this moment, Meng Fan's heart was cold.
Huang Dawei didn't know how he felt, but it should be similar, there must be fear coming.
Graves are the kind of things that always give people a sense of fear.
Although you know very well that every grave you fear is inhabited by someone else's longing for a loved one.
But if you don't know, you'll be afraid, and sometimes those you know will be afraid!
Especially for Meng Fan and Huang Dawei at this moment, this ghost place is already weird enough, and now a grave has popped up, it is impossible to say that they are not afraid!
"Keep going?" Huang Dawei's voice trembled a little and asked Meng Fan.
Although it is very strange to say that a tomb appears inexplicably, there is a high probability that this tomb has a problem and is worth exploring.
But in this situation, whether it is Meng Fan or Huang Dawei, it is obvious that they will not have the courage to go to the vicinity of this grave to investigate.
They even thought that in the next second, a ghost would jump out of the grave and kill them.
So they definitely didn't have the courage to approach this tomb!
Meng Fan said: "Keep going, I think it's better for us to stay away from this tomb as soon as possible." ”
The two men continued on their way, trembling their foreheads, and after a few steps, they found another grave by the side of the road, and this grave was closer to their path.
If the first grave was five meters from the roadside, the one would be only four meters.
The two men paused for a moment, then gritted their teeth and continued to walk, not daring to stop.
As they walked on, almost every few meters, they could see a grave, some closer to the side of the road, some farther away from the side of the road.
Before, they were worried that the further they went, the closer the grave would be to the roadside, but fortunately this was not the case.
The two of them walked for about ten minutes before they stopped at the same time.
It can be seen that the bodies of the two of them are trembling at the same time.
Meng Fan's heart was beating faster, and he had the urge to turn around and run.
Because there was another grave in front of it, and this grave was about seven or eight meters away from the roadside.
This distance is not close, even farther than the first grave encountered is from the side of the road.
But this time, the fear is unprecedented!
Because although this tomb is not close to the roadside, a distance of seven or eight meters, there is a fire in front of this tomb.
By the light of the fire, Meng Fan could see that there seemed to be a figure in front of the grave, kneeling there and burning paper money!
And the light they see is the light from burning paper money.
In an instant, the endless horror and horror overwhelmed Meng Fan and Huang Dawei, and they even felt that their breathing was a little rapid and difficult, and they couldn't control their breathing at all.
A question arose in their minds at the same time.
Is this figure who burns paper money really a human being?
