Chapter 13 Ghost Beats the Wall

Not long after continuing to walk, the traces ahead suddenly disappeared. I turned on my flashlight and took a photo, only to find that there was a hole diagonally downwards, with traces extending into the hole.

The hole was very large, and someone of Zhou Linli's size would definitely be able to get in. This was obviously the nest of some kind of large animal, and Du Xiaosheng and the others were probably dragged inside.

If it is a snake, it is easier to say. Snakes have the habit of hibernating and will naturally preserve food. The food hunted at this time will not be eaten immediately.

It was important to save people, so I first used a flashlight to shine into the hole. Unexpectedly, the hole was quite deep. The light of the flashlight was swallowed up by the darkness and I couldn't see the end.

I didn't care so much at this time, so I shouted the names of Du Xiaosheng and the others loudly. My shouts echoed in the woods, but no one answered. The only thing that responded to me was the sound of leaves being blown by the wind.

I looked at the cave entrance again, and now there was only one way, which was to explore the cave. I took a deep breath, put the flashlight in my mouth, bit it with my teeth, and freed my hands to crawl into the hole.

In fact, I later realized how dangerous this move was. Not to mention rashly diving into an unknown hole. If there were any beasts in the hole, I would be in a dilemma. The only thing I could do was to be eaten.

This was my first time drilling a hole, and the depressing feeling was very uncomfortable. Coupled with my nervousness, it was very awkward. There is no sunshine all year round in the cave, and it is a bit cold. I only wore a shirt, and I had goosebumps. After crawling for a while, I could gradually smell the smell of blood, and the worry in my heart deepened.

The bottom of this hole cannot be seen from the outside. In fact, it has some twists and turns and is not very deep. I climbed to the end soon. The end was empty, not to mention Du Xiaosheng and Zhou Linli, there wasn't even a snake, and a few dark things could be vaguely seen ahead. The smell of blood was even stronger, as if there was a pool of blood next to it.

I twisted my neck to let the flashlight shine on the ground more clearly. This photo didn't matter, but it startled me, and I suddenly felt something in my stomach was churning again. I saw blood all over the ground, which hadn't even dried up completely. The dark stuff on the blood was minced meat... and it was human flesh, because I also saw a little finger and a ball of white intestines.

It’s also thanks to my perversion that I killed a lot of tits when I was a kid. I’ve seen bloody scenes. I didn’t spit out the meat after seeing so much. Holding back my nausea, I carefully searched the flesh and blood with my eyes. Judging from the amount of meat, at least one person died here. I secretly prayed that it would not be Du Xiaosheng and the other three who died here.

But my intuition tells me that the possibility of this prayer is very low, because the blood has not dried yet, someone must have just died here. Except for a few of us, I didn’t see anyone else along the way. In other words, 90% The possibility of nineteen is one of the three of them, or in other words, I would rather die than Zhou Linli, not Du Xiaosheng and Fang Yuze.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a person who is extremely protective of my shortcomings. Although Du Xiaosheng is not my shortcoming, he has been my partner for many years. There is friendship even without family ties.

Fang Yuze is one of the only technical personnel in our company. If something happens to him, I will suffer a lot. In comparison, Zhou Linli, whom I just met, is naturally not as good as Du Xiaosheng.

I couldn't draw any conclusions until the last moment, so I calmed down and continued to look for clues in the pile of meat. In addition to the flesh, there were also some scraps of cloth floating on the blood, which should have been torn from a sportswear. There was the Adidas clover logo on it, which was worn by that damn fat guy Zhou Linli!

The flesh and blood of small animals is incomparable to the flesh and blood of the same kind. When I think about the person who was chatting with me a few minutes ago and now looks like this, my scalp feels numb, I feel dizzy, and it seems that my ears have begun to ring. . I couldn't find any trace of Du Xiaosheng, so I guessed that he probably escaped. I found that my hands were shaking and my lips seemed to be trembling. Great fear invaded my whole body, making me shudder. I wonder if Fang Yuze, a helpless person, would survive?

A seemingly simple action turned out like this, and I felt irritated. I don't know what made Zhou Linli like this. I just know that it's not advisable to stay here for a long time, and it's better to get out first.

The space at the end was relatively large, so I resisted the nausea of being stained with blood and reluctantly turned around. My teeth were a bit sore when I bit the flashlight, so I simply put out the flashlight and crawled forward with my eyes closed. When I came down, I didn't feel anything hard on the ground, so I didn't have to worry about scratching my hand.

On the surface, I looked relatively calm, but when I thought about the scene behind me, I couldn't help but feel frightened. I always felt that Zhou Linli was staring at me from behind with blood on his head, and I climbed up a little faster.

I guessed I was almost at the exit. I opened my eyes, and it was still pitch black ahead, without the expected light. I turned on the flashlight and saw that the scene in the cave was the same. I took pictures of everything in front of me and couldn't tell where I was for a while. When I looked back, a strong sense of fear suddenly surged into my heart, and my heart became cold.

Why are you still here!

I became even more dizzy, and I didn’t know whether I was dreaming when I crawled outside just now, or whether I was dreaming now. I quickly turned my head back, not looking at the flesh and blood. I turned off the flashlight and crawled forward with extremely flexible movements of my legs and feet. I could feel the air blowing by my ears like wind. I guess this was the first time I had crawled in my life. The fastest ever.

Maybe it's because I didn't read the almanac when I went out, so I didn't see anything good when I visited the tomb this time. I was a little tired from climbing, and my movements began to slow down. I remember that it only took a few minutes to get down. Now I have been climbing for at least ten minutes. It is still dark ahead and there is no exit in sight.

I gradually stopped moving, but didn't dare to look back. I didn't need to light up the flashlight to know what was going on. The visual impact was so strong that even I, who was fearless, could not bear the fear of the same kind of flesh and blood.

Fear and anxiety were intertwined in my mind. The surroundings were eerily quiet. Added to the tension, I could even hear my own heartbeat. People who have not personally experienced this feeling will not understand the feeling of being in ghost movies and heavy-flavored gory movies. They are torturing me with great interest like children playing.

I remembered what my adoptive father told me when I was a child: "Ghosts break through walls." Ghost-beating-the-wall refers to a person who is in a dark environment and unable to get out of a circle, and is eventually lured to the edge of a cliff or falls to his death in a dark well. Country legends say there are ghosts at work. Ghosts breaking into walls often happen in the mountains. My adoptive father once told me a story about ghosts breaking into walls.

There is a family named Wang in our village. He has a daughter who is less than ten years old, named Tiantian, and is Aunt Yan’s niece. Aunt Yan is our neighbor, mentioned earlier. The little girl has been pretty, smart and well-behaved since she was a child. There is no one in the village who dislikes her.

Later, when Tiantian grew up to be a eldest daughter, and when it was time to get married, Lao Wang's family was still reluctant to marry her. People in the village said that they wanted to marry Tiantian to a wealthy family outside the mountains. Precisely because she is so beautiful and single, the unmarried men in the village will inevitably have distracting thoughts. If there are too many distracting thoughts, something will happen.

Tiantian often follows her father into the mountains. Her father hunts, and Tiantian plays not far away. When her father finishes his work, he calls out to Tiantian, and the little girl comes bounding over. But one time, after Tiantian's father finished hunting, no one answered her no matter how many times she called. She walked around and saw no one. Her father suddenly became anxious and went back to the village to find a dozen young men to go with him to the mountains to look for people. .

More than a dozen people searched for traces all over the mountain, shouting and shouting everywhere, scaring away the birds in the mountain. Later, no living person was found, but a frozen dead person was found. Tiantian was found in a tree hole, naked and with messy hair.

Everyone who saw her knew that she was raped and then killed. I don't know which beast did it. The Wang family regretted it very much. Aunt Yan knelt beside Tiantian's body and cried all night, constantly saying things like if she had known she should have married Tiantian.

Losing a father in youth, losing a wife in middle age, and losing a son in old age have been the three most tragic events in life since ancient times. Aunt Yan was pregnant four times that year, had two miscarriages, and one boy was abducted by Huazi. The only child had an accident, and now only the couple are left alone. Sweet's father was devastated, his body weighed down by years of illness and grief, and he died that night.

Tiantian's father has a younger brother who lives in the next village. I don’t know his name, I just know that when I was a kid, I called him Uncle Bangzi. Uncle Bangzi was an intruder and married a rich woman from the village across the ravine. Uncle Bangzi, who was already bold and arrogant, became even more aggressive after getting married. When Uncle Bangzi saw that his beautiful niece had been raped, he was so angry that he picked up his hoe and went to the mountain before dawn. Others asked him why he was going there, and he said he was going to dig a hole and bury the murderer alive when he was found.

Everyone didn't believe it, took his words as a joke, and let him go. As a result, Uncle Bangzi didn't come back the next morning. Aunt Yan was very worried. Her daughter and husband had just died. Don't let anything happen to her brother-in-law again! The family once again rushed up the mountain to look for someone.

Aunt Yan's sharp eyes first spotted a figure lying on the mountain road. She and a few strong men in the village got closer and saw that it was Uncle Bangzi who had been missing all night. Uncle Bangzi slept soundly throughout his sleep, and woke up slowly in the evening. The first thing he did when he woke up was to look around, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was at home.

Aunt Yan hurriedly asked Uncle Bangzi what was going on and why he was lying on the road.

Uncle Bangzi explained what happened. He originally went to vent his anger and didn't really dig a hole. After just shoveling the soil a few times, when it reached ten o'clock, he was already giving up. A man was walking on a mountain road where someone had just died. He was in a hurry and didn't hold a light. Uncle Bangzi was heartbroken. He lowered his head and did not look at the surrounding scenery. After walking for a long time, it was still dark all around. He was confused. He could usually see the village within a few minutes of walking. Why was he still in the mountains now?
