Chapter 38: Strange Figurines
Cui Hao shook his head at me, looking a little cringe for the first time.
"Otherwise, let's go first and think about it in the long run, these two things are so weird, I always feel that those figures are not quite right, especially the huge black spider on them."
I looked back at Cui Hao strangely, and I felt incredible in my heart.
"Fatty, when you usually encounter this kind of thing, you rush in front and I chase behind. What's wrong with you today, why did you become so cowardly all of a sudden? ”
When I said this, there was a moment of sluggishness and confusion in the fat man's eyes.
Soon, he shook his head at me.
"I don't know, I just think it's dangerous, let's try not to approach as much as possible."
After saying that, the fat man shook his head and shook the flesh on his arm again.
"Strange, I also feel that something is wrong when I hear you say that. It didn't look like me just now, and did you feel weak in your hands and feet, as if your muscles couldn't stretch? ”
Originally, I didn't realize it, but now when I heard the fat man's reminder, I immediately pinched my arm.
Immediately, I felt that something was wrong.
Sure enough, just like the fat man said, my body was light and limp, my muscles were so loose that I couldn't support it, and I almost collapsed to the ground.
"Something is wrong, what's going on?"
I felt like I was losing a lot of energy, and all my attention was on the two figures, so I didn't notice my body all the time.
Now it seems that the situation is very bad.
Cui Hao looked nervous and quickly retreated to my side.
"I also just realized that when I said we were going to leave, I took a step back and almost tripped over myself."
The fat man sniffed and pointed to the rising white smoke around him.
"I think it might be a problem with the moisture, the water in this pool may be some kind of weird thing, let's take a few steps back and then come back."
I nodded, and immediately followed Cui Hao back.
I picked up the money and was faintly white, and my body shook uncontrollably, and I almost fell to the ground.
The fat man was not much better off than me, and the two of us supported each other, and then slowly moved away from the steaming pool.
As expected.
As we got farther away from the pool and the air around us became colder and fresher, the two of us gradually recovered our strength.
Cui Hao's eyes flashed with a gleam.
"It seems that these things are the ghosts, and there is something wrong with the water in that hot spring pool, and when the water vapor rises, the smell inside is really strange."
Cui Hao retreated to my side, grabbed my arm and walked away.
"Hurry up, follow me. This place is too weird, let's go to the entrance for a while, and slow down as much as possible, don't carry this thing and completely drain your strength. ”
I nodded, followed Cui Hao to the entrance, stared at the cliff below, and fell into deep thought for a while.
The two of us stayed here for nearly half an hour, and we finally felt that we had recovered a lot of strength.
My head isn't as dizzy as it used to be.
I looked at Cui Hao, who was also staring at me with burning eyes.
"Little Manye, I listen to you. I feel a lot better, do you think we should go out now, or do you want to continue to see the weird stuff? ”
My family's gaze shifted to the place where the figures appeared, and for a moment I fell into deep thought.
The human skins on these things may be corpse clothes, but it is also possible that they are just my delusions.
I was a little dizzy just now, so my first reaction was that they must be wearing all the corpse clothes on their bodies, and there could be no fake.
But now that I'm completely calm and sober, I feel the problem.
"Fatty, first of all, this number is not right. It is impossible to make such a large number of corpse clothes at the same time, such a large amount of consumption is too large, and the conditions for making corpse clothes are harsh, I do not think that with their craftsmanship can make such a huge number of corpse clothes. ”
I stared at the entrance and sighed deeply.
"And that's just the first point, the problem is that these things look exactly like human skin, but I'm not sure if they're living dolls carved directly from the body of a living person, which is also possible. So if you go back, you have to take a risk if you want to determine their identity. ”
I looked back at Cui Hao, waiting for his response.
"Therefore, this auspicious cloud flowing sky is not necessarily easy to deal with, and with the surrounding fog, it will also charm the mind. If we really want to meet these things again, I'm afraid we'll both run into risks again. ”
Cui Hao's attitude was firm, his eyes locked on my body and he did not hesitate to respond.
"Anyway, I will follow you, Xiao Manye, what do you say, I will follow you? If I really die at the hands of these things, my life will be counted. ”
Seeing that he trusted me so much, a sense of unease rose in my heart.
I hesitated for a while, but finally gritted my teeth and made up my mind.
"Fatty, I'm going to have to go over and take a look, I'll have to get close to one of them to figure out if they're living dolls or the corpse clothes we need."
With that, I took the rope out of my body and tied it around my own waist.
I tied the other end of the rope to the fat man's body and instructed him.
"You just stand here waiting for me, and I pull the rope every three minutes, which means to tell you that I'm safe. If you notice that I haven't pulled the rope for more than four or five minutes, then it's proof that I'm in danger. ”
I looked back at Cui Hao, waiting for his answer.
"At that time, you pulled the rope hard to pull me back, life and death, if I can still come back, then you look at my situation and then make a later decision. If I can't come back......"
I let out a heavy sigh and pointed to the cliff beneath my feet.
"Then you go out on your own, and when you go out, you will find your way home as soon as possible, and find your way home from the mountain, as if you had never been here. Don't worry about me anymore. ”
When Cui Hao heard this, disapproval suddenly appeared on his face.
"That doesn't work, how can I leave you here alone?"
I shook my head, insisting.
"Listen to me, since you say that you will listen to me, then follow your words, understand?"
The fat man gritted his teeth, and finally nodded heavily, which was kind of an agreement to my words.
I tapped him on the shoulder and turned my head to look at the water not far away.
The next thing that awaited me was the risk of danger, so I could only take a breath, turn around and walk in the direction of the pond.
Cui Hao pulled the rope tightly, his face was full of nervousness, I shook the rope in my hand and looked back at him with a smile.
"It's okay, wait for me here."
With that, I turned around and immediately walked in the direction of the pond.
As the moisture around me became thicker and thicker, I immediately took out my mask from my backpack, damp it with water, and covered my face.
I'm not sure how useful it is, but it should at least be a little less risky than going through the past.
While I was still conscious, I took out the sobering medicine powder I had prepared in advance and slapped it before playing with my nose.
A chill instantly swept through my body, and my groggy brain calmed down a lot.
I immediately put it in my backpack, rolled a cigarette and stuffed it to my mouth and lit it.
In the midst of the smoke, my expression was clear.
I've come to be able to make out a few gray-black figures in front of me.
They were still standing next to the pond, some playing in the water, others around the pond, as if they were talking about something.
As I got closer, I could already vaguely feel a feeling of hypothermia spreading through my body, and my body couldn't help but sink down.
My heart sank.
I knew it wasn't going to be good, and I was going to be hit again.
I took another hard puff of my cigarette to make sure I was conscious, and looked at my watch.
Another three minutes passed, and I tugged on the rope to convey the message of my safety to Cui Hao.
Then I continued to move forward, this time I picked up the pace, and I was going to do it quickly.
Only in this way can I keep my mind as clear as possible, and I will not be slowly fascinated by the contents of this vapor.
As I got closer, the appearance of those figures became more and more fresh.
The flashlight shone on them, and these things gradually realized that I was near, and slowly turned their heads to look in my direction.
Their expressions were numb and hollow, and although there were eyeballs in their eyes, the thing looked like a glass prosthetic eye carved out of jade, and it had no luster at all.
When they saw me, even their eyes would reflect a very strange coldness under the light of the flashlight.
I swallowed, quickened my pace again, and quickly came to one of the figures.
Just being far away is enough to make people feel frightened.
Now standing in front of this thing, the two huge spiders on his body instantly chilled my heart.
Because I could clearly see that the spider's legs were still moving, and they were still slowly secreting spider silk, gradually wrapping the person's legs.
One of them seemed to sense my breath and slowly floated towards me.
His legs looked like they weren't moving in the clouds, but they were slowly closing the distance between him and me.
I felt bad and immediately turned and retreated.
But the figure was faster, and before I could react, he had already walked in front of me.
I immediately pulled out my weapon and held it across my chest to fend off the guy's approach.
The corners of the figure's mouth twitched as it walked up to me, and it gave me an extremely strange smile.
In the next second, the figure suddenly raised his hand, and the cold light in his hand was so cold that he actually stabbed a dagger into my chest.
