Chapter 056: Strange Fragrance

The bones are piled up on a mountain, the wind is slow, and staying in such a mass grave for a long time will indeed make people uncomfortable.

Bai Luoshang loosened the neckline of his clothes a little, and the dull feeling in his chest eased slightly. He carried the little boy to the open space outside the bones and put it away, and asked the man in black: "Have you checked whether the yamen in this area has handled such a case of a large number of deaths?"

The man in black shook his head.

Bai Luoshang asked again: "What about the case of a large number of missing people?"

The man in black shook his head again.

Bai Luoshang frowned: "Regarding the death of people or the disappearance of people in this area, has the government never prepared a similar case?"

The man in black still shook his head.

"That's weird. Bai Luoshang touched the wine gourd, suddenly took two steps forward, bowed down to look at the bones, and kept muttering something in his mouth.

Qiu Lifeng couldn't understand what he was saying at all, but he could see his thoughtful expression, and he couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at?"

Bai Luoshang said in a low voice: "Isn't it strange that so many people have died, but the government has not come forward to take charge?"

Qiu Lifeng said disapprovingly: "Generally, haunted cases are difficult for the government to manage. ”

Bai Luoshang said: "Even if the case can't be solved because of the haunting, but so many people have died, shouldn't it be included in the case file?"

Qiu Lifeng thought for a while, and then said, "Didn't you say that it was haunted? Maybe it's because no one dares to approach here, so it's normal for no one to find this bone mountain." ”

"Normal? Not necessarily. Bai Luoshang disagreed and said: "This doesn't make sense at all, even if no one has found these bones so far, but these people are missing, is it true that no one has reported to the official to publish a notice? If a person only disappears for a short time, it will indeed not attract everyone's attention, but at the same time, so many people have disappeared together, it has never aroused people's suspicion?"

After Qiu Lifeng heard this, he didn't speak.

Bai Luoshang said with a contemplative expression: "What if these people are an expeditionary army?"

Qiu Lifeng squinted his eyes, "You mean, the identity of these people ......"

Bai Luoshang shook his head and said: "I just said that there is this possibility, otherwise how do you explain it? They died bizarrely, and it is bizarre if they are not discovered after death, and now it is even more bizarre that we have discovered it." ”

Qiu Lifeng said coldly: "It's also strange to be discovered by us?"

Bai Luoshang asked rhetorically: "Why do you think we were able to find these bones? Is it because we are luckier than others? Or is it because we are more unlucky than others? A place that has not been discovered for so many years will be discovered by you and me by mistake?"

Qiu Lifeng looked at him coldly, "You mean, someone deliberately arranged it to let us discover here?"

Bai Luoshang nodded in agreement, "If it's not really haunted, then of course someone arranged it behind the scenes." Regardless of whether it is a human or a ghost who makes the arrangement, the purpose is to make these dusty dead people public. ”

Qiu Lifeng said coldly: "There is no mistake. ”

"And the person who is doing one thing must have known in advance that we were going to be here. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that. ”

"And not many people know that we are coming back here. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that. ”

"I think I already know who this man is. ”

Qiu Lifeng looked at him, and suddenly smiled at the corner of his lips: "Who do you think arranged it?"

Bai Luoshang also looked at Qiu Lifeng and smiled, "Apart from you, I really can't figure out who else can arrange this matter." ”

Qiu Lifeng smiled and said nothing.

Bai Luoshang said: "Although I don't know the intention of the eldest prince of Qiu to do this, I know that the eldest prince must have something that needs my help, right?"

Qiu Lifeng smiled approvingly, but still didn't say a word.

Bai Luoshang pointed to the top of the bones, turned his head sideways and said to Qiu Lifeng: "I'm going over there to have a look." ”

Qiu Lifeng said: "Together." ”

"Young master, slow down!" The man in black who was closest to Qiu Lifeng heard them say this, and hurriedly spoke out to stop it, but Bai Luoshang and Qiu Lifeng's movements were too fast, and they had already jumped up in one step before they could listen to the words of the man in black.

"Not good!" the man in black's face changed dramatically.

As soon as the words fell, I saw that Bai Luoshang and Qiu Lifeng had already landed on the bones, but before they could gain a firm foothold, the bones piled up in the mountains began to sink in vain, like quicksand, and the surrounding bones fell one after another. Bai Luoshang and Qiu Lifeng were also frightened and couldn't react, so they both fell into the bones.

At the last moment, the man in black suddenly threw a whip, tied Qiu Lifeng's arm, and dragged his whole life out of his bones. However, Bai Luoshang unfortunately fell completely, and was swallowed up by the bones in the blink of an eye.

Qiu Lifeng, who was rescued, slapped the man in black with his backhand without warning, and scolded angrily: "Nosy!"

The man in black stood with his head bowed, his face submerged in the shadow of the hat, and he couldn't see his expression at all.

Qiu Lifeng flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "Those two also fell from here?"

The man in black replied respectfully, "Yes, both of them were thrown here and disappeared." ”

"Sink like Bai Luoshang and disappear?" Qiu Lifeng stared at the place, his brows tightened more and more, "There must be a cave down there, apart from this place, where else can I go down?"

The man in black shook his head, "No other entrances were found. ”

Qiu Lifeng's expression gradually became anxious.

At this time, the underground is pitch black, boundless black, and nothing can be seen.

There is no light, no sound, and no wind in the four spheres.

He is completely trapped in a space cut off from the outside world, where all perception becomes useless.

The smell of decay filled his nostrils, choking him with a burst of retching.

Enduring the intense feeling of nausea, he never imagined that he would one day experience such a creepy thing.

Reaching out and touching something that was all cold, although he couldn't tell what it was to the touch, Bai Luoshang knew that it was full of bones.

Judging from the foul air, there must be more bones in this underground cavern than there are above.

Bai Luoshang stretched out his hand and groped in the dark, only walking less than ten steps, a feeling of suffocation surged up violently, and he suddenly felt a splitting headache, all the strength in his body was drained, and even his bones became weak and weak, and he couldn't lift the slightest strength.

It was as if something was choking his neck, refusing to let go, making him unable to get in or out of his breath, stuck in his throat, this feeling made him unbearable, not alive or dead, and finally fell to the ground unable to support it. The feeling of suffocation is getting stronger and stronger, and no matter how much you struggle, it doesn't work. The blood was boiling all over his body, and his head was about to crack.

Just when he felt that he was going to die, a large pile of bones suddenly crackled from the top of the cave, and then a heavy object fell, "bang" and smashed on Bai Luosheng's chest.

This blow made the breath stuck in his throat pour into his lungs, and Bai Luoshang could finally take a breath.

It's just that he can gasp for breath, but the blow almost didn't break his lungs, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't die.

Touching it in his arms, Bai Luoshang suddenly sat up in fright, pushed away the heavy object in his arms, and said in surprise: "How did this little ghost come down." ”

I can't see it, but Bai Luoshang has already felt it, and this heavy object is the little boy who burned incense and worshiped in front of the pile of bones just now, but how did he fall down? Could it be that he was thrown down by Qiu Lifeng?

Bai Luosheng's frightened hope is not from Qiu Lifeng's hands, but after rational analysis, it is more likely to be thrown by Qiu Lifeng.

patted the little boy's face, and Bai Luoshang sat weakly on the pile of bones, knowing that he would definitely not be able to get out for a while.

The little boy is still alive, but he doesn't know how long he will live. The breath is weak, the body is cold, no matter how you look at it, you are a person who is about to die, and when you are in such an impermeable cave, it will be a miracle not to die.

Unwilling to sit in vain and wait for death, Bai Luoshang got up again and groped around, but a few back and forth trips to no avail, no matter which direction he followed, in the end he was just turning in circles, as if he had entered a maze, and seemed to have encountered a ghost hitting the wall.

I can't use my eyes, my nose, my ears, my light functions, and this time, I'm really trapped.

Do you really want to die here?

Bai Luoshang sat on the ground depressedly, thinking dejectedly, maybe ten years later, he would turn into one of the bones of this Sensen. The air in the cave was so thin that it might not be long before he suffocated to death. Unexpectedly, he avoided the people who were full of rivers and lakes, but he overturned a boat in the gutter of Tonghu Mountain, and died in such a place, maybe no one would find him ten or twenty years later. Thinking about it, Bai Luoshang actually felt drowsy, and when she was half asleep, she suddenly heard someone say:

"You're not dead?"

A childish voice rang in his ears.

Bai Luoshang hurriedly looked to the side in shock, but only saw that it was pitch black.

"I thought you were dead. ”

The voice spoke cautiously, as if the speaker was afraid.

Although he couldn't see anything, Bai Luoshang still turned his head to look at the place beside him, he knew that it was the little boy who was talking, but he was already speechless in shock.

"Why don't you speak?" said the little boy.

"Because I'm scared. Bai Luoshang didn't see any fear at all and said, "I thought I had met a ghost." ”

If you really think that you have met a ghost, it will never be this reaction, and no matter how calm a person is, it is impossible to behave so indifferently when he is afraid.

The little boy was silent, Bai Luoshang didn't know what he was doing, because he couldn't see at all, so he could only stare quietly. After a long time, he heard the little boy's voice say, "I am also afraid, but I know that you are not a ghost, you are hot, and a ghost is not hot." ”

Bai Luoshang sat up straight and asked, "How do you know that ghosts aren't hot, what if ghosts are also hot?"

After a while, the little boy spoke, "I've seen ghosts, ghosts aren't hot, I know." ”

Bai Luoshang said in horror: "Have you ever seen a ghost?"

The little boy said, "There are a lot of ghosts here, and I often come here, so I've seen them." ”

The more Bai Luoshang listened, the more surprised she became, "You often come here?"

The little boy nodded.

Bai Luoshang couldn't see him nodding, so he asked again, "You come to this place often?"

The place he was referring to was this underground cavern full of corpses.

The little boy whispered, "Yes." ”

Bai Luoshang asked strangely and surprised: "Since there are so many ghosts, why do you still come often? You are not afraid of ghosts?"

The little boy said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid, ghosts don't harm people, ghosts are not as terrible as people." ”

Bai Luoshang said: "So you are not afraid of ghosts, but afraid of people?"

This explains why the little boy fainted with fear when he saw them.

It's no wonder that Qiu Lifeng would be so angry, if he changed to Bai Luoyi, he would also be angry, no ghost is not afraid, but he is afraid of people? Could it be that people are more terrible than ghosts?

The little boy is afraid of people and ghosts, Bai Luoshang is afraid of ghosts and not afraid of people, in fact, Bai Luoshang is afraid of ghosts, if he knows that the suffocation sensation that made him feel a headache just now is actually because he has choked his neck with all his hands, then he will believe that there may really be ghosts in this world, and it is a very terrible thing to be leaned over by this kind of ghost.
