Chapter 3 Death Sick Village (3)
The silent and dead village is full of something, and there is no trace of life at all, but it seems that there are people living in the pure land for fear of being discovered by outsiders.
The surroundings were quiet and terrible, there was no sound of insects chirping at all, and as far as the eye could see, there seemed to be nothing but dead branches and leaves.
"Let's go."
Jiang Chenchuan wanted to leave.
"Do you want to keep going?"
Early Winter showed some worries on her face, and she was afraid that if she continued to go deeper, she would really encounter something terrible.
"Since we have come to the sick village, we should investigate clearly......
Jiang Chenchuan said as he continued to walk forward, stepping on the damp ground, it seemed that he was still carrying some hard objects, and when he looked down at his feet, he saw that it was an unknown white bone again.
In the early winter, he could only follow Jiang Chenchuan's back, observing the surrounding environment, for fear that he would stick out something in a terrible shadow.
It's just that, unlike what I imagined, it seems that after leaving the forest, the road is safe, there is no weird darkness, and there is no terrible dry hands.
The only strange thing is that the further you go in, the more strange marks there are on the ground, like the traces of human walking, and like some kind of mutated monster.
The gloomy village seemed to be dead, and there was a strange aura everywhere, and this chaotic aura had been interfering with Jiang Chenchuan's exploration, making them a little frightened even to move forward.
Rustle Rustle –
Finally, in the unknown darkness, there was the sound of Xi Xi Suosuo, as if someone was running quickly, as if he had detected something, and in the next second, Jiang Chenchuan pulled out his sword, which was almost an instinctive reaction.
A swift wind blew, and a figure darker than the darkness swooped down on them, the sharp staff and sword colliding with the unknown hardness, sporadic sparks.
The kerosene lamp fell to the ground, and only through the flashing light and shadow, the shadow-like darkness could be vaguely seen, and after a short contact, the true face of the other party could not be seen clearly.
"Come on, early winter, you know some spells, don't you?"
"It's a little simpler."
The cold voice of early winter answered.
His eyes were fixed on the depths of the darkness, not letting go of any small sounds, and the jumping figure was like a wave churning in the darkness.
"Curse."
"What!?"
Chu Dong was very surprised, turned his head to confirm Jiang Chenchuan's eyes, and realized that he was not joking, but serious.
"Trap him!"
The situation is urgent, and the only way to do it is to use the simplest and crudest way.
Chu Dong thought this to himself, and then he crouched down, and wanted to write something, when he heard a faint sound from the darkness behind him.
Listen carefully......
"Meow"
It was actually a cat meow, and early winter even wondered if he had fallen into some kind of hallucination, but everything was so real.
The pitch-black figure rushed towards Jiang Chenchuan again, raising his sword to deal with the collision, this time he finally saw those scarlet eyes, with a terrifying fierce light, as if they were monsters that had never been seen before, and were released from the prison.
After a fierce collision, they separated again, swinging their blades in a wild run, and the other side was not to be outdone, and the attacks of both sides were so fierce that they made a metallic collision sound.
Under the battle, the boiling blood was surging, and Jiang Chenchuan, who was facing the monster, was not weak at all, but could fight back and forth.
But Jiang Chenchuan knew in his heart that fighting was not only about strength, but also about the means and methods of fighting.
The heart was beating violently, even the cold was not afraid, and the collision with its sturdy armor could leave corresponding marks on the sword, Jiang Chenchuan clenched the weapon, and with the other hand pulled out the watch in his arms, the power of awakening began to surge, and time began to gradually stagnate.
The body seemed to be poured with glue, slowly unable to move, and the monster seemed to show a trace of panic,
……
Replace it by 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.
I wanted to hold my hand steady and wait for the night to pass before setting off, but before Jiang Chenchuan finished speaking, he heard a scream, and the sudden sound looked extremely terrifying in this darkness.
I could vaguely hear something from the forest, but I couldn't be sure what it was.
But listen, listen, and look into the darkness...... xqqxs eight.
"You're waiting for me here."
Grabbing the cane and about to walk outside, everyone looked at each other, only Yulia chased after her, but she was a doctor who didn't know anything, it was too dangerous outside.
"I'll go, you stay."
Early Winter stopped her.
I don't know where the courage came from, Jiang Chenchuan stepped into the forest, and it was not only the darkness that eroded them, but also the coldness of the night.
In weather like this, he should have snuggled up by the fire, covered with a warm blanket, and slept on a soft big bed, instead of walking around in the forest, and after a while, early winter caught up with Jiang Chenchuan, who was standing quietly in place, motionless.
"Wait, don't move."
He said in a low voice.
Early Winter immediately stopped moving, until both of them stopped, and then she noticed that in the relatively quiet environment, there was still a faint sound of footsteps moving, like the sound of rubbing against dead leaves, looming, as if there was nothing.
"This way!"
Listening to the sound, he could tell the direction, Jiang Chenchuan immediately chased after him, Chu Dong didn't believe it, until he heard the sound just now.
^0^ Did anyone in the village survive?
With such thoughts, Chu Dong followed behind Jiang Chenchuan in a complicated mood, and he didn't walk long, only to feel that the surrounding environment was getting darker and darker, as if it would shrink, wrapping the two of them in it.
The other people who were waiting in the house watched as the light source in Jiang Chenchuan's hand went deeper into the forest little by little, and was finally engulfed in darkness.
"Ewell, we seem to be in a ......"
"I know."
From the beginning, the awkward atmosphere had already caught his attention, but they were still running fast, and they couldn't think about it so much, and once they stopped, the invisible darkness kept coming up.
Like a mist, enveloping them in the middle of the darkness.
Suddenly, there were footsteps again, this time a little further away, as if they were circling around them.
It's like I'm looking for something.
Lifting the lantern in his hand, he could clearly see the strange particles floating in the darkness, as if some kind of special formation wanted to trap them in it.
"Ewell, what should I do?"
Just when they didn't have a clue, a pale arm like a skeleton reached in from somewhere, and grabbed Chu Dong's arm at once, the kind of horror made her speechless all of a sudden, Jiang Chenchuan subconsciously wanted to draw his sword to fight back, but he felt that something was wrong.
The withered hand was pulling Early Winter out of the darkness, and it looked as if it was saving them.
"Wait, early winter, don't struggle, follow it."
As soon as Jiang Chenchuan heard his voice, Chu Dong no longer resisted, and let the dry hands drag them away from the dark area where they couldn't see their fingers.
Just as he was about to walk out, the pale withered hand let go of its fingers, its movements seemed to be fast, and it was familiar with the environment of the sick village, and in a few seconds, it disappeared into the forest.
The range that the lantern can illuminate gradually expands, and I can gradually see the scene in front of me, which is not a strange forest, but some large and small houses, scattered in the depths of the forest.
"Sick Village...... We're here. ”
The dead branches in the distance swayed in the wind, as if they were cheering and waving for their arrival, and there was not a single light in the whole village, although it was late, it could be inferred from the traces on the road.
It's been a long, long time since there was no one here, it's like an abandoned village, forgotten by everyone.
"In fact, there are some long-standing legends and stories about the sick village."
"What?"
The darkness in the forest behind them was full of danger, and they couldn't see the light of their original residence, so Jiang Chenchuan and Chu Dong could only talk while walking towards the sick village.
"I heard that a long, long time ago, because of the Xinlan coast, this was a prosperous town, and the people of the town made a living by fishing, and then for a while, the maritime trade was discovered, and the whole town became rich all at once, along with the ports of various countries."
"Such a bustling place, in the end...... How did you get so depressed that you don't even have a name? ”
By the light of the kerosene lamp, the house was dark, with a thick layer of dust, and even in the windows of some people's houses, you could faintly see the skeletons that had fallen into the house, which were the corpses of the villagers who had weathered.
It's been a long time since I died.
"So, this is also a legend, legend has it, at that time, due to the rapid development of the town, the leader who managed the town wanted to give the town a well-known name, and the calamity, it was from the name, they directly used the name of a certain god, I heard, it was this action, angered the god, and since then, the whole town began to collapse, towards decline, and in the end, it was reduced to a small village with a name."
The calm narration of early winter added a touch of chill to the already cold night.
"Offended the gods?"
"Probably...... Although no one has ever seen it, and no one can prove that there is a God, once it is mentioned, it is necessary to be in awe. ”
Even early winter will sigh like this.
They have entered the sick village, and the darkness in the forest has dissipated, probably no longer threatening them.
"Let's go, let's see."
Jiang Chenchuan said, the surroundings were filled with a dark and strange atmosphere, even in the early winter, he felt uncomfortable, walking through the sick village, almost silent all the way.
The path underfoot is almost unpaved, difficult to walk, or the staggered roots grow wildly.
Occasionally, when the wind blows, there is always the sound of a rope around, like someone moving, or just the friction between leaves.
As he walked, Jiang Chenchuan suddenly stopped, and before he could brake in early winter, he almost hit it all at once.
"You say...... The person who is rumored to see the action in the sick village will be the ......?"
Ignoring the embarrassment of early winter, Jiang Chenchuan pointed to the figure standing in the distance and said slowly.
At first glance, it was as if I had actually seen a living person, and I felt my heart beating faster.
"That...... It's ......."
"Dummy, but it's more like someone deliberately hanging here to scare off people who came to the village to investigate."
Jiang Chenchuan carried a kerosene lamp and observed, under the blowing of the wind, the dummy would move slowly, as if it was really alive.
"Then the question is, why would anyone do this in a village where everyone is dead?"
I wanted to hold my hand steady and wait for the night to pass before setting off, but I didn't wait for Jiang Chenchuan to speak
^0^ When he finished, he heard a scream, and the sudden sound was terrible in the darkness.
I could vaguely hear something from the forest, but I couldn't be sure what it was.
But listen, listen, and look into the darkness......
"You're waiting for me here."
Grabbing the cane and about to walk outside, everyone looked at each other, only Yulia chased after her, but she was a doctor who didn't know anything, it was too dangerous outside.
