Chapter 2, The Ghost's Nest
Grandfather, you must bless me
Arrived
Run, leave this place
There is light, there is light
I am afraid that I will really be unable to escape now
Because he was just a little bit away, he was about to knock on the door ahead.
However, this small hillside is indeed quite extraordinary
Corpse, skeleton, flesh and blood
Wei Yi's loud breathing
The more he ran, the heavier his spirit felt
Who knows how that group of old ghosts, who spend all day in the grave, will entertain this delicate young man
Mounds of graves stand irregularly around, some tall, some short, and some even have black soil on top.
Aiming in the right direction, he ran down the path without looking back, gripping the scarecrow tightly in his hand as he ran
He knows
Run
One after another, the spirit-recalling banners fluttered in the air, accompanied by a chilling wind that swept through
Ah!
Although no strange occurrences have happened yet
However, he seemed to see a bright light in the distance, a yellow glow, which appeared so beautiful in his eyes
Other places
As he walked towards the nearest house, he instinctively glanced around the entire village a few times
One corpse after another has attracted flies, some of which have even been partially eaten
I felt a chill rushing from the soles of my feet straight to the crown of my head, my body was covered in goosebumps, and a large area on my back became damp
Hurry home
The whole body feels chilly
Shout loudly
This village has issues
At this moment, Wei Yi could no longer afford to look for a stick
Where there is light, there are people
He subconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth
This style clearly resembles a tombstone in the front, with a large mound of earth behind it
His scalp is tingling
What if this is the beginning of his splendid life? Anything is possible.
The eyes of Wei Yi could not help but emit a dazzling brilliance once again
At this moment, he could no longer consider other routes; his first thought was to escape from this place.
If it is really opened
If it were to be moved to another location, he would designate it as a prop used by which theater for performances
At the beginning, I felt a bit excited.
The mere thought of this sent shivers down his spine
No wonder I can appear here; the most likely scenario is that this little Taoist has died, allowing me to take his place.
However, the scarecrow is the greatest oddity
In an instant. And books.
I cannot help but want to take a break
However, those skulls have already been dried out
Wei Yi, who was just drenched in sweat from running, felt a chill enveloping his entire body
Just as all the rationality in his gaze was about to turn into chaos, the scarecrow in his hand suddenly became hot
I knew it... I knew that in this pitch-black mountain, there could not possibly be only these few households.
Wei Yi has unleashed his potential, and his lungs are about to explode? It's fine, as long as he doesn't die, he will run to the limit.
That should be stained red with human blood
... ...
This small patch of forest is specifically cultivated as a shade forest, intended as a place for our ancestors to shelter from the wind and rain
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Because he occasionally glanced back, he noticed that the few yellow lights he had just seen had turned a deep blue
It is clearly a mass grave.
He wants to escape from this potter's field
... ...
Home
He no longer dares to complain about being tired
This is the true support for him in the future
A straight road, a small patch of forest, and scattered houses that seem to lack much order...
When he pronounced this judgment, his entire lips were trembling
The specifications of this small and cozy library house appear to indicate that the main entrance is located above the room, and there is also a large backyard at the back. Although it resembles some modern buildings, this is indeed from ancient times
At the beginning, the voice seemed to belong to a middle-aged woman, but by the end, it had transformed into that of an old crone
Moreover, it is in such a particularly unique environment, known for the legendary mass grave.
The sound was intermittent, yet it possessed an unusual penetrating quality; even as Wei Yiyue ran farther away, he could still hear it clearly
Child, let's go home
I ran through a small stretch of the forest
At this moment, Wei Yi's heart is filled with grandeur; being alive is better than anything else
In any case, he just started to turn out as he looked at the intersection, and after running for a while, he became tired
It has completely transformed into a gathering place for countless skeletons
Because when looking ahead
It appears now
He finally stopped in front of a small village
I ran along a small path
Encountering a ghost that absorbs yang energy would likely be his best way to die
It is only this area where he is lying down, which seems to be merely a high ground, as if there are not many corpses thrown there
Scarecrow, if you have a spirit, please bless me with safety as a favor for the incense I offered you in the past and help me to go out safely
He also did not dare to run back along this small path he had come from
It looks cleaner than what a dog would chew on
Upon truly seeing the village, Wei Yi felt his entire heart gradually relax
This is in the opposite direction of the recently mentioned mass grave. If there is a possible way out, then it would be in that direction
It is not possible to continue staying here
There are not many fresh corpses
If he is not mistaken
Thus, he did not dare to stop
Look at those bite marks, I do not know where such a vicious dog or what kind of beast came from, with its bones protruding, and even a large tendon exposed, fluttering in the breeze
As long as there are people, one can survive and understand the background of this world
Whether one can continue to live until settling down in the future depends on how effective this thing truly is
However, looking towards other places
Child, come back
After such a long period of running, he felt as if his chest was about to explode
And think positively
At this moment, he did not appear fatigued at all; he seemed as if he could sprint forward at a speed of 100 meters.
He ran towards the other side
The sound is becoming increasingly distant
At first, Wei Yi was still resolute in his decision to run away, but the more he ran, the heavier his steps felt
From ancient times to the present, such places have always been the dwelling grounds of demons and monsters. Once encountered, with his small stature, it is likely that he would not survive even the first encounter
In the end, the entire person became completely rigid and stood still in place
Wei Yi's entire body was trembling
This is the shape of a small hill
Wei Yi was praying in his heart
Wei Yi only felt a chill spreading throughout his entire body
This is hardly an ordinary small hillside
This straight road is clearly the ascending path leading to the graves for the purpose of paying respects.
In such an environment, even those with good physical fitness cannot withstand the oppression in their hearts; once they are affected by the cold wind, it is all over for them
If I never run again
The direction of that sound is precisely the direction of the distant village
This is not a village; it is clearly an unknown family's ancestral grave. Each of those houses is evidently just another grave mound.
Upon seeing the surrounding environment, a sudden chill ran through my entire body
Just as he was running with all his might, he suddenly heard a call from a distance
However, immediately afterwards, doubts began to arise
I do not know how long I have been running
The consequences are unimaginable
How many people are actually buried here
