Heilao Mountain is a nature reserve. This reserve covers an area of 500,000 acres, with more than 200,000 acres of forest and thousands of species of wild animals and plants.
The Heilao Mountain with its many mountains is also an important green ecological barrier in the northeastern part of southern Guangdong and the most important water conservation forest area in Yakou Town.
In addition, Heilao Mountain was called "Aile Mountain" in ancient times.
It is said that at midnight every full-moon night, a strange wailing sound often comes from the depths of Heilao Mountain, like a mournful music. It is unknown what animal makes it.
If someone is in the Black Prison Mountain at this time and hears this strange whine, they will lose their way and be unable to walk out of the mountain. Then they will become paralyzed, lose consciousness and die. The strangest thing is that the deceased will show a strange behavior.
smile.
The bodies of the five explorers were all veterans who had served in the military, and they all brought professional technical equipment. However, not long after entering Black Prison Mountain, they lost contact with the outside world, and were finally killed by a
A nearby villager who went into the mountains to pick mushrooms discovered it and called the police.
After listening to Liao Shouchang's account, Hua Canghai asked him: "Why is the villager who found the body okay?"
"The villagers in the nearby area basically know the terrifying legend of Aile Mountain, so they don't dare to enter Heilao Mountain at night. They only dare to go into the mountain to pick some wild products such as mushrooms during the day, and they evacuate before the sun goes down.
.”
Liao Shouchang replied.
Hua Canghai thought for a moment, and then said to Liao Shouchang: "Let us take a look at the body!"
Liao Shouchang nodded, opened the warning tape, and led everyone to the five corpses.
The five corpses were lying on the grass on the slope, all covered with a black cloth.
Hua Canghai took out a pair of transparent gloves from his body and put them on. Then he walked up to one of the corpses, squatted down, and slowly opened the black cloth.
The deceased was a man in his thirties. He was wearing a professional jacket, but the zipper was unzipped, revealing most of his chest. He looked as if he was very hot when he was alive. The strangest thing is that the expression on the face of the deceased did not show any pain.
Instead, he showed a strange smile.
After Hua Canghai checked them, he checked the other four corpses one after another. They were all similar, especially after death, the weird smiles on their faces were almost exactly the same.
"Butou, what do you think?"
Hua Canghai frowned, then raised his head and asked Sun Datou next to him.
"I have checked before. There are no scars on these five people from fighting or wild beast attacks, and there are no signs of food poisoning, miasma, or lightning strikes... Even the RTK positioning and measurement equipment has not been turned on. In short, I haven't found anything yet.
Can find out the cause of their death."
Sun Datou said this in a rather helpless tone.
"Could they have died of hypothermia?"
Hua Canghai suddenly asked Sun Datou this way.
"I have considered this possibility before, but although people who die from hypothermia will smile, they will also have a physiological reaction at the same time, that is, they will feel uncomfortable and itchy all over before death, and people with hypothermia will scratch their skin, but
None of them had any injuries on their bodies! And they were wearing quite a lot of clothes, including jackets, thermal jackets, and sweatshirts, so death from hypothermia is not true."
Sun Datou replied like this.
"Then what was the cause of their death?"
Hua Canghai fell into deep thought.
At this time, Su Yuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "They... probably died of sudden hallucinations."
"Death from a sudden hallucination?"
Hua Canghai and Sun Datou both looked at Su Yuan.
Su Yuan hurriedly said: "They should have encountered a situation similar to that of a ghost hitting a wall, but it was a much more serious hallucination..."
The so-called "ghost hitting the wall" means that when a person is walking at night, in the mountains or in a relatively unfamiliar environment, for some reason he cannot tell the direction and always returns to the same place when walking around. In fact, he is always walking in circles.
, making people feel as if they have "seen a ghost".
“Can hallucinations kill people?”
Yu Baiying next to her couldn't help but ask Su Yuan.
"General hallucinations have a low fatality rate, but eating poisonous mushrooms can cause hallucinations and death. Death will not be very painful, and it is possible to smile, but they have no signs of food poisoning.
"
Su Yuan explained this, and then said: "There are no traces of struggle on the bodies of these five deceased people. Their smiles after death were very happy, which shows that what caused the illusion may be the happiest thing in their hearts! All five people appeared.
Such an illusion can never be achieved by a ghost fighting against a wall!"
"Brother, what on earth is it that suddenly triggers their hallucinations?"
Lan Qingling also asked Su Yuandao with a curious expression.
"I... don't know yet."
Su Yuan replied like this, and then looked up at the flock of swallows still flying in the sky: "But I have a guess, it must be related to those swallows in the sky."
"Oh? Could it be that...those swallows in the sky can cause people to hallucinate and die?"
Lan Qingling was stunned for a moment after hearing this, with a look of fear on her face.
"no…"
Su Yuan hurriedly said to Lan Qingling: "Swallows are not hallucinogenic. I am just guessing that it may have something to do with them."
"Oh, you scared me!"
Lan Qingling stroked her chest and continued to ask Su Yuan: "Brother, what are those swallows related to?"
"I'm not sure yet!"
Su Yuan shook his head and said this.
"Xiao Su, did you see something?"
At this time, Hua Canghai couldn't help but ask Su Yuan.
Su Yuan responded: "I'm just guessing at the moment. Let's wait until the sun goes down!"
"The sun is going to set!"
Hua Canghai looked at the sky and said this.
"Wait!"
Su Yuan answered: "If I guess wrong, as soon as the sun goes down, some kind of change will happen in this mountain..."
"What changes?"
Lan Qingling asked Su Yuan with a nervous expression.
"You'll know then."
Su Yuan glanced at Lan Qingling, and then said to her.
"Oh my, big brother, you are so good and bad, it scares me."
Lan Qingling suddenly pouted his lips, shrank to Su Yuan's side, and held his arm, as if this gave him a sense of security.
Su Yuan almost laughed. Didn't Lan Qingling claim to be the "Girl Killed by Thousands of People"? She was actually scared!
Lan Qingling seemed to see what Su Yuan was thinking, and pinched his arm angrily: "People are just afraid of things that can't be seen or touched! What's so funny."
Su Yuan suddenly realized that Lan Qingling was a little girl after all, and it was normal to be afraid of unknown yet terrifying things.
After about ten minutes, the sun finally set, the temperature slowly dropped, and the inside of Black Lao Mountain gradually became dim.
Only the swallows in the sky are still circling and flying...
