Being extremely close to death, but unable to escape... What kind of desperate horror is this? And what choices will humans make when facing death?
Gao Ying once thought about this problem.
He once remembered that in 2005, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the world's anti-fascist victory, his father was invited to appear on television many times to preach the history of World War II. As a Chinese, the focus of his father's research was naturally on the Eastern battlefield, the Chinese nation and the Japanese Empire.
That extremely bloody war. He was deeply impressed by his father's words.
"In that era, every Chinese son and daughter had no right to escape war and live in this world. I once heard a saying that if China and Japan went to war again, many young people today would become traitors, but I don't think so.
Because by that time, they will realize that many things are more important than living."
Gao Ying did not fully understand his father's words. Therefore, he wanted to understand what is higher than death and higher than life. Therefore, his biggest dream is to become a documentary writer on the history of World War II and write a detailed book
A history book about World War II. He wanted to know why human beings killed each other more than 60 years ago, even at the cost of so many innocent lives. World War II, especially the Anti-Japanese War, was one of the most tragic wars in the era of hot weapons. And so many
When faced with the inevitable death, what mentality do soldiers have when they step onto the battlefield? The textbook says the main theme, but is it really just like this? The whole nation can be made to sacrifice their lives and pay the price of so many lives.
What kind of will did they use to overcome the fear of death?
Gao Ying looked at the hut outside the window, and he felt that the god of death was waving to him there.
"I……"
Gao Ying cannot understand what is higher than life and death. After all, he is only 18 years old. Although he is knowledgeable and can be called a human encyclopedia, there are many things for which standard answers cannot be found in books. From childhood to adulthood, he has been extremely glamorous.
Life made him fully appreciate the beauty of life. He felt that it was because of this that he had the idea of longing for eternal life.
Is it really such a heinous crime to covet immortal life? Gao Ying looked at the rising sun in the sky. He was confused. This exam is a completely contradictory existence. Those who long for immortality are here to welcome death earlier.
.And if you want to live, you must walk with the God of Death at all times. However, don’t the extremely contradictory existences of life and death exist in unity in every living individual? Only living things will die, and conversely, only living things will die.
Only what is destined to die can be considered a life. Gao Ying realized that his will was tantamount to rebelling against the law of life, and because of this... he also suffered from the curse of the contradiction between life and death caused by this exam.
After intense psychological struggle, he finally made up his mind.
This is the price he must pay for his greed for eternal life. There is no possibility for him to turn back. Either he will be buried in the examination scene, or he will live as long as heaven and earth! There is no other way!
He walked outside and looked at the map again.
Staring at the red five-pointed star marked on the mountain on the map, he pondered in his heart, what did this village called "Yinmen" do to get retribution? For some reason, Gao Ying suddenly felt sympathy.
Although they are the source of the curse, they... are also just tools for this test. Even after death, they cannot get freedom and rest, and are still being pulled by this curse like puppets.
control.
After Gao Ying walked out of the door, he looked back at everyone. Finally...this time, no one disappeared.
"I decided to go to that house."
Gao Ying stretched out his hand and pointed at the house on higher ground not far away.
At this moment, Lin Jia and Cheng Ge quickly changed their expressions. On the contrary, except for Ji Yixuan, Shen Junhao and Jiao Chaoming did not react much.
"We...really want to go there?" Lin Jia's face turned extremely pale and she waved her hands repeatedly, "I...I don't want to go!"
As for Cheng Ge, he really didn't have much presence in the team. He said with a grimace: "Why... why do you want to go there?"
Gao Ying had expected this and replied: "Because that is where we are most likely to find clues."
In fact, the truth is not difficult to understand, but it is self-evident how dangerous it is there. Gao Ying himself almost died there.
"I agree." The person who said this was Jiao Chaoming. He agreed with Gao Ying's idea, but he also knew that he could not escape now. Escape would only bring greater disaster. He... ...I once had such a painful experience.
"No...I don't want to go in!"
Lin Jia never had the courage. Although everyone would go in, the thought of Ma Jun disappearing without anyone noticing made her extremely panicked. As for Cheng Ge, he is a male after all. Since everyone decided to go in together, and Gao Ying also acted confidently, so...he might as well give it a try!
Now, Gao Ying raised his head.
If you want to gain eternal life, you must first have the consciousness to give up your life...? People without this consciousness can only face death.
Gao Ying knew that this was the most crucial move.
It is very possible that... one careless step will usher in the end of his life. Every step he takes must be extremely careful. If he makes a slight mistake in his judgment, he may never have the chance to start over again.
This is life, a life that once lost can never be resurrected.
"In that case, Lin Jia stays and we leave."
It is extremely difficult for Gao Ying to say the three words "let's go". Every word he utters is like cutting his own soul. And this time, Ji Yixuan still silently expressed his feelings for Gao Ying. This support from Gao Ying gave Gao Ying great comfort... and peace of mind.
In fact, it is not that Gao Ying has not considered that there may be a better choice... maybe the key to getting the final clue to the problem lies somewhere else, and can be obtained with less risk. But the problem is... there is not much time left Gao Ying is worried that when the exam is about to end, the ghosts are very likely to start crazy killings. By then, if you come here again, you will be seeking death. The two powers are harmful to each other. Whichever is the lesser. The risk is uncontrollable, Gao Ying Shadowing can only reduce foreseeable risks as much as possible. Only by answering the final argument question can you increase your score and gain new lottery opportunities.
They were getting closer and closer to the house.
At this time, looking at the obvious blood stains on the ground, it was shocking.
At this time, Gao Ying suddenly heard Cheng Ge saying to himself: "Don't be afraid... don't be afraid... I've even seen the female ghost, isn't it okay? It'll be okay, it'll be okay..."
Cheng Ge's voice when talking to himself was originally very soft, but after all, the surroundings were too quiet. Because of this, Gao Ying could hear his words clearly.
"You said..." Gao Ying stopped, turned around, walked up to Cheng Ge, and asked, "Have you seen a female ghost?"
Originally, he was worried about cheating and did not dare to discuss this aspect of ghost sighting information with other candidates, but... now it has been proven that moderate discussion is allowed, so he wanted to ask.
"Yes...a female ghost in black clothes and black skirt. The night before yesterday, I was living with Ma Jun and Lin Jia, and then I saw a woman walking past the window holding a piece of paper that looked like a test paper..."
"Like test paper?"
"Yes... I thought she was a candidate, so I followed her out to remind her not to go out at night. But... I found out that she was actually a female ghost!"
Obviously, Cheng Ge was still frightened when talking about this experience.
You know, Gao Ying was almost killed by the female ghost in black dress! He obviously didn't speak loudly!
"No... I was so scared when I found out she was a female ghost that I ran away, but... she didn't chase me... Ma Jun and Lin Jia saw that I never came back, so they thought I was dead and even ran away from the house where I lived."
"Yes," Jiao Chaoming nodded: "The two of them met me after they escaped."
Why?
Gao Ying wonders, what is the murder criterion for a female ghost in a black dress?
