Vol 2 Chapter 462: They're calling my name
The paper was yellowed, and the writing was blurry but flustered, as if someone had written it in a desperate situation. Just the font, you can see the person's fear and despair.
"What should I do? Brother Chu." Ye Xiangxiang also seemed to be completely frightened. She came here to revive her younger brother, but now this piece of paper completely reveals the unsettling unknown, "It's all about A scam, is this all fake?! The so-called folder is fake, and the world where everyone lives in it is also fake..."
"Calm down." Chu Tianshu said, "Given how old this piece of paper is, it doesn't look like it was left behind recently."
He stroked the lines of the paper and finally came to the conclusion, "This piece of paper was written at least five years ago."
"Five years ago? How could someone enter here five years ago and write something here..." Ye Xiangxiang was incoherent.
Chu Tianshu was speechless.
He just looked at the note. The handwriting on the note is so distorted that even an acquaintance may not be able to tell who actually wrote it.
He put the note away carefully. Ye Xiangxiang pondered for a while, and said, "I won't tell other people this note first, so as not to cause panic."
But thinking of the old note, Ye Xiangxiang felt slightly relieved. Maybe it was left by some poor guy who was pitted by his teammates.
"The storm outside has stopped again." Ruo Shui came from the entrance of the cave and said, "Let's keep walking."
If the water came at the right time, Ye Xiangxiang would leave with her and everyone who got up. Lin Huai sat on the side of the cave, his head bowed, and his fingers were sketching something on the ground.
A shadow fell in front of him, and when you came to the stage, all he saw was Chu Tianshu.
Chu Tianshu squatted in front of him and asked him, "What are you doing?"
Unprecedentedly, they had the feeling that they had been testing in the villa for the first time.
"I drew a marinated egg on the ground." Lin Huai said, moving his fingers away to show Chu Tianshu.
There was indeed a round thing on the ground. Chu Tianshu saw Lin Huai lowered his head, revealing a section of the white back of his neck. He put his hand on it and rubbed it lightly: "We should go."
"Yeah." Lin Huai said.
"You said this is Wenxian, do you remember anything?" Chu Tianshu asked.
"I didn't think of anything, maybe when I see it, I can think of it." Lin Huai said.
Chu Tianshu let go of his fingers, and before leaving, Lin Huai held his wrist and bit his fingertips lightly.
They looked at each other in the dark cave. Lin Huai's eyes now turned blood red, like a lake and a sea of lights. He looked at Chu Tianshu's face buried in the shadows, and said softly, "What did Ye Xiangxiang show you just now?"
"It's nothing." Chu Tianshu said, "A note left by a former explorer, do you want to read it?"
Lin Huai looked at him for a while, shrugged and said, "Forget it, I'm not good at solving puzzles."
So they left the cave. When walking on the road again, Chu Tianshu thought that it was indeed a distorted note that Zhang acquaintance could not read.
But there was still one person who could make out the handwriting on the note.
That's...the person who wrote this note himself!
That is...
Chu Tianshu, myself!
...
The second round of storms was more intense than the first, making it more difficult to find a way through thick fog that was nothing but mist. The crowd nearly broke into a few fragments disguised by fog more than once. Qu Mei couldn't help complaining: "This is really like a folder where things are piled up in a mess, everything is placed in a mess, flying around..."
Fu Liye said, "Uh, my E drive is indeed like this. All the rar, jpg, mkv, etc. are thrown together..."
"No wonder it's called a folder, but these fragments are probably also the recycle bin after the files were shredded." Ye Xiangxiang made a joke.
They kept going, somehow, the further in this direction the fog became less and less, and they encountered less and less fragments of living ghosts - on the contrary, more of those slightly different Be careful, the fragments will be transferred to different places in the folder.
Another doll of Qu Mei encountered such a situation. He failed to avoid the spot debris in the wind, and blocked the blow with his own avatar. The avatar was quickly captured into the fragment, and Chu Tianshu suddenly said, "Try to catch it!"
He used props and various methods to fix the pieces there. Soon, they saw the scene - withered trees, and in the distance, the broken walls of the bungalow and the like. Qu Mei pressed against his temple and said, "My stand-in doll is still in the folder."
"That's right, we can let him explore the way." Ye Xiangxiang said.
The puppet moved mechanically within the range of the fragments, and Qiu Ran could vaguely see that the mist over there seemed to be different from this one, such as the black land, which turned black as if it had been soaked in blood, and there was actually a thin layer of mist in the mist. Red... Soon, Qu Mei suddenly said: "I think something is wrong..."
With Qu Mei's voice, the doll that was mechanically moving in the fragments suddenly stopped and turned back to everyone!
What appeared on its face was a grimace!
That is definitely not the control of Qu Mei, but belongs to it—the action of this puppet that should have no will. When he saw the weird and terrifying smile on its face, Chu Tianshu immediately said: "Qu Mei, disconnect!"
Qu Mei immediately disconnected when he was torn apart. But he soon vomited blood from the injury. Fu Liye quickly supported him with his brother puppet. Qiu Ran said in a panic, "How could... that puppet..."
"Although I don't know what happened." Chu Tianshu also frowned, "But it looks like it was infected and turned into a ghost after it entered there!"
At the next piece of debris, Chu Tianshu sent a robot into it. There was white fog floating in there, and the robot turned left and right inside, but nothing happened.
"It doesn't seem to be a problem with fragments?" Fu Liye said.
"I think it may be because robots have no brains, and haunted robots don't sound too scary." Ye Xiangxiang said, and simply sent his little paper figurines to follow.
The little paper figures look like the best material for haunting. But the little paper and the robot wandered in the white fog together, but none of them turned into ghosts. Just when everyone was puzzled, Lin Huai, who had been silent for a while, spoke up.
"The red fog is because of the red fog." Lin Huai said, "In the fragment that Qu Mei probed at first, there was red fog... It was red fog, which changed its nature."
"Blood fog... Yes, the power of ghosts is indeed bloody." Ye Xiangxiang suddenly turned pale, "If we accidentally walked into the blood fog, we would be the same as the puppet just now..."
Before you know it, get killed, or turn into a monster?
"I think Brother Lin is doing well now." Fu Liye said, "Maybe if we go in, we will become stronger."
Lin Huai glanced at him and said, "If you go in, there is a greater chance of you becoming a monster that can only kill."
Fu Liye choked for a moment and stopped talking.
Everyone continued to walk, and Qiuran asked Lin Huai quietly, "Mr. Lin Huai, do you know something?"
Lin Huai paused and said nothing.
Qu Mei still fell weakly into the arms of the doll. But Fu Liye felt that the road suddenly became a little strange. At this moment, Ruo Shui stretched out his hand and shouted, "Look at that mountain!"
There was a slight wind blowing, and what appeared in front of everyone was an extremely stunned sight!
Everything that appeared in front of him seemed to have been cut by something very strange, showing a strange flatness. And every place on the nearby mountain is like a square block, and a block is forcibly extracted from it. The ground is also extremely steep, more than a foot thinner than the place just walked, like...
"...It's like there was a war here." Ruo Shui muttered.
This place is really weird and terrifying, but apart from the word "war", no one can better describe the desolate feeling that has happened here. They walked on it carefully, and the thick fog on both sides became less, but when Qu Mei passed through a fog, he heard the mourning inside.
"what--"
"Ah-"
It was an extremely terrifying and **** wailing sound, as if all the memories and resentful souls that had been killed here many years ago were left here, lingering constantly in the sky. Qu Mei was about to retreat quickly, but saw Lin Huai approaching the fog.
"you……"
Lin Huai turned a deaf ear, he heard voices in the mist.
After gradually digesting the shadow, his ears became much more sensitive than before, so he could hear the mourning inside.
Many of those wailing sounds are not languages that humans can understand, but languages used by ghosts.
"It hurts...it hurts...it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!"
"I don't want to be crushed, I don't want to be deleted..."
"He's cutting us..."
"That kid...that horrible kid..."
"There are two paths here." Ruo Shui said, "one is to the left and the other is to the right. Ye Xiangxiang, which way should we go?"
"Two? Shouldn't there be two roads here?" Ye Xiangxiang was also dumbfounded, "The map says there is only one..."
She looked up at the two roads, as if one road was automatically cleared of the fog as they approached. In the end, she bit her lip and said, "In this way, the others are waiting here, and Brother Lin and Brother Chu are going to explore the way."
Others agreed.
The two men and one woman continued to walk forward. Following the road on the right, Ye Xiangxiang always felt that the path was getting higher and higher the further he went. The good news is that the wind and fog have become less, and she feels that her heart is gradually calming down, and at this moment...
"Hanging, cliff?"
What appeared in front of the three was a cliff. Ye Xiangxiang glanced at it, and only saw what looked like a dark pit, opposite the pit, far away, like the other side of the dark trees...
Ye Xiangxiang vaguely felt that the fog on the other side was a little red. She should leave, but curiosity made her look down the cliff, and she said, "It's all dark, inside..."
The next moment, she stopped breathing.
"Inside, inside... go, let's go!" Ye Xiangxiang shouted.
The thing sticking out from the cliff finally started to rustle. It wasn't some bottomless darkness, but...
Hundreds of thousands, millions of pieces of ghosts that have been cut apart and come from nowhere!
All the ghost fragments are piled up here, like a large number of dark moths, making it not like a deep canyon, but like a mass grave for burning them or doing something else to them...
It is a mass grave belonging to ghosts! !
Ye Xiangxiang grabbed Chu Tianshu's arm and was about to run. But before she took a few steps, she found Lin Huai standing on the cliff. There was no wind blowing his black hair, but he looked down quietly, as if he was about to fall...
"Lin Huai, you..." Ye Xiangxiang said suddenly.
And Chu Tianshu walked towards Lin Huai step by step, reaching for his arm.
"They're calling my name."
Lin Huai's expression was flat, and suddenly he said something terrifying.
He stared silently at the silent, terrifying mass grave that belonged to ghost fragments. There was silence in the mass grave, but he could hear voices that seemed to have come from many years ago.
"They're calling me..." Lin Huai said in a dreamy voice, "Take them out..."
He stretched out his slender fingers like a butterfly with wings.
Pale, scary, phototactic... butterflies.
