This passage made of corpses was covered with blood-red moss. Chen Ge vaguely remembered what Li Zheng had said, that one must remain quiet in the blood-red passage and not make too much noise.
Li Zheng did not tell Chen Ge the specific reason, but just said that the school staff reminded him in this way.
"If the noise is too loud, will it wake up the bodies in the walls?"
As his eyes swept across those faces, Chen Ge's movements became gentler, and every step he took was cautious.
With the white cat leading the way, he was not too worried. But after taking a few steps, Chen Ge suddenly heard a sound coming from behind him, as if someone was running in the passage.
"The two workers at the crematorium are very afraid of me. They would never enter the passage to look for me unless they had no other choice. It should be that some monsters rushed in, and there were quite a few of them."
The noise was so loud that Chen Ge felt the entire corridor was shaking. As the footsteps slowly approached, the "moss" on the wall began to ooze out blood-red liquid. Large chunks of "moss" kept falling off from the top of his head, at his sides, and under his feet, and human faces emerged.
They are so well preserved that they look as if they were still alive.
Their eyelashes trembled slightly, their skin came back to life as the blood-red juice slid down their cheeks, and their eyelids twitched as if they would open their eyes in the next moment.
Chen Ge didn't dare to stay in the secret passage for too long. The space was narrow and he felt that he would be buried alive if the corpse in the wall woke up.
“Buried alive by corpses, staying here forever, and then becoming one of them?” Chen Ge took a breath and vaguely knew why there were so many corpses here.
He quickened his pace and followed the white cat closely.
The secret passage was very long, and the surroundings were already blood red. The "moss" was still falling off, and the corpses piled in the walls were trembling slightly. The intertwined corpses heard the sounds outside, and they seemed to want to pull themselves out of each other's bodies.
The entire passage was shaking, cracks appeared in the wall built with corpses, and arms were hanging down from the top of the cave!
The scene in front of him was so terrifying that even Chen Ge's heart started beating wildly, let alone ordinary people.
Putting his hands above his head, Chen Ge almost crawled forward on the ground. Arms hung down above his head, as if ready to grab him.
The sound behind him was still approaching, and the corpses in the wall were slowly waking up. Chen Ge could clearly feel them moving.
"This three-star scene is much more dangerous than I thought." If the secret passage collapsed at this time, it would be useless even if he released all the ghosts on his body. It was estimated that only Zhang Ya could use her long hair to support a space for Chen Ge. No other ghost could do it except her.
Ghosts are just one of the criteria for measuring the danger level of a scene. Some scenes themselves are very dangerous, such as a morgue built underground. This place is very unfriendly to the attackers.
The cry of a white cat could be heard not far ahead. After swallowing the blood threads prepared by the Ghost Story Association for the red-clothed ghost, the white cat became smarter and smarter. It also sensed that the secret passage had changed, and its cry was urgent, as if it was urging Chen Ge.
Since the corpse on the wall was about to wake up, Chen Ge simply ran at full speed.
The deep part of the secret passage was completely blocked by thick red "moss". The road could not be seen and one could only use one's body to squeeze inside.
If Chen Ge hadn't known that the white cat was right in front of him, he probably wouldn't have rushed in without hesitation.
The "moss" fell off, and the fragrant juice rubbed all over him. In this strange and terrifying environment, Chen Ge actually felt as if his body was wrapped in a warm current, just like sitting next to a heater wrapped in a quilt in winter, and his body temperature was slowly rising.
If these corpses were not about to wake up, he would even have thought of staying here for a while longer.
The footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer. Chen Ge ignored the people behind him and just kept going in. After an unknown amount of time, the pressure around his body suddenly eased and his vision became wider.
“Finally it’s out!”
His coat was soaked, emitting a faint fragrance, and the bloody smell on the skull-crushing hammer in his hand had also diminished a little, but he looked even more hideous.
This side of the secret passage should be the core area of the underground corpse storage. It is similar to the secret passage. At first glance, everything is covered with a thick layer of blood-colored "moss".
"This place is equivalent to a room isolated with corpses."
The footsteps in the secret passage did not have much impact on the core area. Chen Ge stayed not far from the secret passage, waiting for the two workers from the crematorium. He also wanted to know what was happening outside.
Not long after, Li Xu rushed out of the secret passage. He was obviously frightened. When he saw Chen Ge next to him, he opened his mouth wide, ready to say something.
Chen Ge had anticipated Li Xu's reaction, so he rushed over and covered his mouth tightly, then whispered four words in his ear: "Keep quiet."
After a second or two, Li Xu finally reacted and nodded repeatedly.
At this time, Ma Wei limped out, and Chen Ge also covered his mouth before he could speak.
After the two calmed down, Chen Ge spoke: "There are countless corpses buried here. If you don't want to wake them up, just keep your voice down."
"Brother, the bodies in the containers outside ran out. When we went over, we saw them running towards this side." Li Xu's voice was nervous and his face was covered with sweat.
"When you went there?" Chen Ge narrowed his eyes. His cold tone frightened Li Xu and Ma Wei: "Are you two planning to escape?"
"No, really not, we just wanted to go out and take a look." Li Xu stuttered.
"Don't be nervous. It's human nature to run away. What I'm more curious about is whether I'm that scary. You would rather look for corpses than obey my orders." Chen Ge picked up the skull crusher and lifted the bloody "moss" at the entrance of the secret passage. The corpses did not follow in.
Li Xu and Ma Wei didn't know how to respond to Chen Ge's words. They lowered their heads and dared not speak, for fear that they would accidentally say something wrong.
In fact, it’s not their fault that they are timid. After all, if they commit a crime in this place, they can even skip the process of hiding the body.
"Okay, it's fate that we met in the underground corpse storage. As long as you two are obedient, I won't make things difficult for you." Chen Ge said the first half of the sentence very gently: "But I'll be frank with you, if you two dare to mess with me..."
He raised the skull crusher so that Li Xu and Ma Wei could see the blood stains on the hammer head more clearly: "Think carefully, this is stained with human blood."
Li Xu and Ma Wei nodded without thinking too much.
