After everyone rested for a while at the foot of the hillside, Mai Lao looked at the sky again and said, "It's time to go, it's going to rain again." As soon as he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning flashed across, followed by a huge thunderous sound.
The sound made the whole island shake.
But when the lightning flashed across, I saw another black figure standing on the top of the highest mountain. The moment the lightning flashed across, I could see clearly that it was the shriveled old man with his messy hair.
He returned to the mountain peak again. This old ghost was so fast. Without any of us noticing, he was already standing at the highest point. Could it be that... that's his home?
It seems that there should be the information I want on that mountain peak, which may be the key to unlocking the secret of this island.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, making people unable to open their eyes. It looked like it was going to rain soon. We braved the strong wind and climbed up the hillside.
"Guys, be careful where you step and watch the people around you." Mr. Mai led the way, reminding us from time to time.
We dragged each other one by one. This hillside cannot be said to be very steep, but it is very slippery. It is not easy to climb up if you step on it. There is no grass on the hillside. It is just loess and silt. The only thing is that the road is relatively flat and not so smooth.
Lots of potholes.
Even so, there were several times when everyone almost slipped down. Fortunately, the hillside was not very high, otherwise it would have been very easy for something serious to happen.
After a lot of climbing, we finally climbed up. After climbing up the hillside, we finally reached the bottom of the mountain. The lofty peak in front of us seemed unattainable, like a giant standing tall on the sky.
The few of us would seem too insignificant.
Every time I look up, I always feel that the old man's cat's eyes are staring at us. From the hillside to the front of the mountain, we still need to walk for a while. The hillside is very large and the surrounding area is very empty. It is almost
Not a single flower or tree.
There is a very narrow trail in the middle, with empty mountains on both sides. It seems incompatible with the previous jungle scene. It is too bare here.
In the open space on the left side of the trail, I can vaguely see some earthen lumps. I don’t know if it’s an illusion or something. There is no moonlight today, so I can’t see very clearly. The right side is very flat, and it’s basically all
flat ground.
"It's so quiet here, it's almost scary." Jenny said beside me, a little scared.
"This ghost island has always been very quiet. There is not even a tree or tree in this place. You guys should be careful of everything around you, for fear of being scammed." I felt a little uneasy. Why did this place look so unpleasant to my eyes? It felt so bad.
Not as good as the jungle before.
Jiao Ba turned on the flashlight, looked around, and suddenly said in a surprised tone, "Oh my God, this... here is actually a big cemetery."
Cemetery? What Jiao Ba said shocked me. With the help of his flashlight, I realized that the rows of earthen mounds on the left were actually grave mounds, and there were tombstones in front of each mound.
This large cemetery stretches as far as the eye can see. There must be thousands of graves next to each other. It is simply a huge cemetery. If I had not seen it with my own eyes, I would not have been able to imagine that there was actually such a thing at the foot of the mountain.
There are so many dead people buried.
"Holy shit, where is this place?" How come there are so many graves on this desert island? These graves are arranged neatly and the planning is only orderly. They are not the so-called mass burials at all.
Post.
Jiao Ba whispered in my ear, "The Yin Qi of the entire island should be coming from here. Now I can be sure that there are indeed a large number of dead people buried on this island."
"You're right. No wonder this desert island never sees the sun. There are so many dead people, and the yin energy is so strong. But I never thought that so many people would be buried on a desert island."
I was puzzled before. Mr. Jiao Ba said that a large number of dead people were buried here, but I didn't see a single corpse along the way. It's good now that I don't have to look for it. All the dead people must be here.
Everyone was shocked. No one could have imagined this. They originally thought it was a deserted island, but looking at it now, it was definitely not the case. This large cemetery must have something to say.
Jenny stuttered a little and said, "It's... such a big cemetery. I have an ominous feeling that the danger is getting closer and closer to us. We have to find a way to get out of here quickly."
The big man was a little scared and said, "My dear, is this ghost place inhabited by savages? How else could there be so many graves?"
Jiao Ba sneered and said, "You really have a rich imagination. Do savages also build monuments? It's simply nonsense."
"Mr. Mai, what's going on with these graves?" I turned to look at Mr. Mai and asked.
"I don't know, this is beyond my expectation. How could there be so many graves on this desert island?" Mr. Mai was also a little dumbfounded, and his tone of voice changed.
The big man said with a trembling voice, "This place is too evil. What should we do?"
"Brother, can you please be quiet? Now is not the time to be afraid." I patted his chest with my backhand to calm him down.
Chang Shan said at this time, "There are so many graves here, which means that many people are buried here. Could it be..."
"What is it? Did you really say that?" Jenny was a little anxious this time.
"It's a curse, the curse of the undead." After Chang Shan finished speaking, he glanced at Jiao Ba intentionally.
"What kind of curse is that again? Oh my God, what the hell is this place?" Jenny was so anxious that she almost turned around.
Li Xin comforted her and said, "Jenny, don't worry, let's listen to what other people say first."
"Brother Chang Shan is right. This is probably the source of the curse. There are so many dead people buried in such a large cemetery. No wonder the yin energy on this island is so heavy. I just don't know where these people are from.
I don’t know what era they are from, let alone why they are like this now?” Jiao Ba calmed down again and said calmly.
"Maybe we can find out if we go over and take a look." Li Xin said coldly, this girl is really brave, Jenny can't compare with her.
Jiao Ba and I looked at each other, then looked at Mai Lao, "How about... let's go over and have a look. This large cemetery is really weird."
The big man immediately said, "What if I tell you not to go? What if there is danger?"
I glanced at him and said, "There are dangers everywhere along the way. Didn't we also save the day? Although we had a lucky escape, at least we are still alive. You said that the cemetery is dangerous, then tell me where is the safest place here?"
of?"
The big man said that he was out of battery at my words. He looked down at me and said nothing, "It's okay to go and have a look. You have to understand something." Mantou said something rare, since he landed on the island,
He has been in his lowest state.
"Okay, let's go over there and take a look, turn on all the flashlights, and be careful." After finishing his words, Mai Lao took the lead and walked towards the cemetery on the left.
I took the makeshift gun in my hand and flicked my head, and everyone followed and walked over. We had only three flashlights in our hands, one for Jiao Ba, one for Mai Lao, and now Jenny had another one in her hand.
, everyone else carries some light sticks with them, which are for emergency use.
A group of us walked into the cemetery slowly. When I walked here, I felt my heart beat a little faster. This was not a fear of nervousness, but an indescribable feeling. This endless cemetery should be very...
It's spectacular, but if you look at it in the current environment, you'd be very cautious.
These grave mounds are arranged in a very disorderly manner, without any rules, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they are close together, and each mound is like a mountain mound. In front of the tomb, there is a tombstone made of wood.
This tombstone is not big, very narrow, and very simple. It should be just a broken wooden board. From this, it can be seen that these dead people have no identity, they are all common people with flat heads.
"My mother, how many people are buried here? You can't even see their heads." The big man was a little weak, obviously scared.
I patted him on the back and said, "It's okay. You look so fierce. Even if there is a ghost, you will be afraid of the ghost when he sees it. Don't worry."
My words relaxed the atmosphere a lot. Jenny and Li Xin actually smiled. At this time, Mantou also made a joke and said, "That's right, what are you afraid of? Just your old face."
It can ward off evil spirits."
"I think so." Shunzi also answered. The big guy didn't get angry this time. He just smiled stupidly. But I knew very well in my heart that the big guy was releasing his inner fear. This big cemetery gave people
The feeling of depression is not as strong as usual.
Mai Lao stopped, shined his flashlight on the tombstone in front of the grave bag, looked at it carefully and said, "There seems to be writing on it, let's see what it says?"
We also quickly stopped, and with the light of his flashlight, I saw that there were indeed some words engraved on the tombstone, but it was dirty and messy, and the handwriting could no longer be seen clearly.
Jiao Ba squatted down, wiped the tombstone with his hand, looked at it carefully and said, "There is indeed writing on it, but it's a pity that the writing is completely unclear. It's probably because it's been too long, it's windy and rainy
, it will inevitably have an impact.”
"You can't see clearly on this one, so let's change it to another one and go to the side and have a look." I motioned to Jiao Ba to check a few more times. He couldn't just hang himself from a tree.
Jiao Ba checked more than a dozen tombstones in succession, but the writing on them was still unclear. It was too blurry. He could only vaguely see that some words were traditional Chinese characters. No one could make out what was written. The tombstones were almost just bare boards.
Yes.
"The engravings on these tombstones are very shallow and casual, as if they simply wrote a few words with a knife. If the inscriptions were done normally, it would not be unclear at all." Jiao Ba pressed his hand on the top of the tombstones.
The blurred handwriting said.
"Yes, not only are the characters lightly engraved, but the tombstone is also too crude. It almost looks like it's not intact. It's all incomplete." Mai Lao said after shining a flashlight around it.
These tombstones made of wood are slightly damaged around the edges, but at least they are still intact. But the most serious ones are that some have half of them left, and the other half is still thrown beside the grave...
