Chapter 4 Earthbound Spirit
The parking lot on the second underground floor is very large.
Li Yi was walking alone on the muddy ground. He was tense and alert to his surroundings.
"Even though they knew this place was haunted and many people had died, these people still insisted on acting alone. It seems that they have made up their minds to gamble with their lives. That old crow is really vicious. Who can resist such a big promise?"
"At first they just wanted to try their luck and make a few tens of thousands of dollars, but now they have even risked their lives. Even I can't help but look for rare items in this situation."
"After all, such an opportunity may only come once in a lifetime, and everyone wants to improve so badly."
Li Yi was lost in thought while searching around with a flashlight.
The flashlight can only illuminate a limited area, and the search is obstructed by some abandoned buildings and load-bearing columns, which increases the difficulty of the search.
The most important thing is that Li Yi doesn’t know what he is looking for.
Because he does not recognize the strange things.
"While there is no danger now, just take a quick walk and go back. Don't go too far and get lost. I am content with making some money this time. I can't risk my life for a strange object whose authenticity is uncertain. As for what others do, that is their business. I can't be blindly carried away."
Li Yi calmed down a little at this moment and immediately slowed down his pace.
After walking a short distance further, he felt that his search area was almost complete, so he did not go any deeper.
He shone the flashlight around, and if there was nothing unusual, he would turn back.
But soon, Wei Li's voice was heard from the darkness not far away.
"I seem to have found something here. I don't know what it is, but I think it's very unusual. If you are interested, you can come over to me."
"Have you discovered anything? Great, I'm coming." Wang Hu's voice responded.
Zhang Kaiwen also said: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon."
Then, several beams of light appeared in the darkness and were approaching in one direction.
"It's not far from me. Let's go and take a look. I probably won't get any money in the end if I don't get any information." Li Yi thought about it and approached with some curiosity.
Soon, several people met in an area.
Although they were far apart, the flashlights in their hands were shining in the same direction.
It was a slightly raised mound, but the mound seemed to have been dug up long ago. There were a few tombstones scattered around it, and some sacrificial supplies were also scattered nearby. However, the damaged tomb was very special. It was not a product of the earth at all, but rather like a very new ancient tomb.
"Is that my illusion?"
Li Yi waved the flashlight at the grave mound and found a halo surrounding the grave mound. However, as the flashlight faded away, the halo disappeared into the darkness.
"It's not an illusion. It really seems to be a little different there."
The heart that had calmed down started beating again at this moment.
Could that be the strange thing they were talking about?
Not sure.
But the location is not far away, you will know if you take a closer look.
But he is not the only one who has such thoughts.
However, at this moment everyone tacitly agreed not to act rashly, because Wei Li's flashlight did not shine at the grave mound, but at the surrounding ground.
However, they saw that the ground around the grave mound had strangely grown out of dead people's arms. Those arms were covered in mud, twisted and deformed, and looked very strange. The more they went forward, the more there were. What was even more terrifying was that they vaguely saw something wriggling in the mud.
"No wonder Wei Li doesn't dare to move forward."
Li Yi's heart shuddered. He had a premonition that once they set foot in the area ahead, they would suffer unimaginable and terrible attacks.
Once an accident occurs, the probability of them surviving as ordinary people is definitely very low.
So Wei Li was not informing them out of kindness, but he was not sure he could cross this area and needed others to help him try and error.
"The road is right in front of you. There are risks, but the rewards are huge. It's up to you to choose."
Wei Li wiped his lenses and said slowly, "If we turn around and leave now, it won't be a problem to get the remaining 100,000 yuan, but we need to think carefully before making a choice."
Several people were silent and fell into a brief silence.
They were both hesitant and seemed to be waiting for someone to take the lead.
But at the same time, on the first floor of the building, the tall woman was standing in an abandoned room, eyes closed, motionless.
She has been in this position for a while, and now a smile suddenly appeared on her lips: "As expected, they have arrived safely at the core area. I have determined their location through some movements, and none of the five people have died so far. My previous inference is true. Ordinary people will not be targeted by the evil spirits wandering downstairs."
"Because they don't have spiritual mediums and can't see evil spirits, they won't be attacked. People like us who have embarked on spiritual practice can see many things that ordinary people can't see. In fact, as long as we enter the first underground floor, we will be attacked by many evil spirits. There are even more evil spirits on the second underground floor, and they are so densely packed. If we rush in with our strength, we will die miserably." The old crow at the side said in a low voice.
"When I think of the countless dangerous ghosts lingering around those five people, my hair stands on end. But sometimes I envy them. If you can't see them, then they don't exist. If they don't exist, then they won't be afraid. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for them to reach the core area. They would have been scared out of their wits a long time ago."
The tall woman continued, "Avoiding the attack of the invisible evil spirit is only the first step, but the stuff there is not simple, it has become a ground-bound spirit. If you get close, you will die miserably."
"These guys are of high quality and very cunning. They won't approach rashly. Most of the time they will just take a look from a distance, take a picture and leave." Lao Ya said after thinking for a while.
"That's fine. With just one photo, I can determine the exact location. Then I'll gather a few friends and make another rush. As long as we act fast enough, it won't be difficult to take the things away." The woman said, and suddenly she let out a light exclamation.
"what happened?"
The woman suddenly opened her eyes and immediately said, "Damn it, that Wang Hu wanted to snatch something from the earthbound spirit. His behavior caused the undead spirits in the entire area to riot. We can't stay here anymore. We have to leave this building, otherwise we will be affected."
"Then all five of them are dead." Old Crow's face changed slightly.
The two men quickly evacuated the danger area, and he ordered his other men to stay away from here.
At this moment, on the second floor of the underground parking lot.
Wang Hu strode forward, he leaped forward, and his feet landed precisely on the ground. Normally, his body should have sunk into the mud by now, but it didn't, because under his feet was a car buried in the mud.
The car became his stepping stone, allowing him to quickly approach the lonely grave.
But even if he thought of this method, his actions had already caused a series of terrible reactions.
"Ah! Ah!"
Painful wails began to echo in the darkness. Many twisted and strange corpses were wriggling in the soft mud. They opened their mouths with painful expressions and kept approaching Wang Hu. The arm covered with mud began to sway like weeds in the wind, trying to prey on everything it could touch.
"What the hell are these?"
Such a scene makes people shudder with fear.
Wang Hu jumped forward again, avoiding a terrifying arm that stretched out from the mud, but this time his luck seemed a little bad. The parking space in front seemed to be empty, and there was no car under the mud.
Suddenly, nearly half of his tall body sank into it.
As soon as he slowed down, the corpses in the nearby mud began to squirm and struggle towards him. In just a few seconds, Wang Hu was surrounded by those horrible things, which seemed to be about to pull him into the mud and swallow him up completely.
"Body, move the fuck up!"
He roared, his muscles tensed, and unimaginable strength erupted from his strong desire to survive.
Wang Hu actually broke free from the mud and quickly climbed onto the roof of a nearby car.
But the danger was not over, because more corpses rushed towards him.
However, at this moment, Wei Li moved. He stepped on the soft mud step by step and approached the lonely grave as fast as he could.
The horrible corpses in the mud attracted Wang Hu, which was an opportunity for him.
"My life is worthless. If I don't fight now, when will I fight?" Zhang Kaiwen immediately took off his shoes and tried to cross the dangerous area in front of him.
At this moment, the three people began to gamble their lives.
"Go or not?"
Li Yi was thinking quickly at this moment. He was very excited because there were cars serving as stepping stones on the road ahead of him, and the corpses in the mud nearby had been attracted away by other people.
He was confident that he could successfully cross the dangerous area before him and reach the vicinity of the lonely grave.
But that's about it.
Li Yi didn't know whether there were any dangers in the lonely grave, whether there were any rare objects, or whether he could return safely, and he didn't think about it.
Because the next moment he rushed out too.
“I want to improve, too.”
