Restricted area grave keeper

Chapter 63 The Man in the Coffin
"So... the reason why those of us were brought to this place was because we heard the long and short knock on the door?"

Xia Yuxi secretly guessed, and after thinking about it, she felt that the truth of the matter might not be like this. After all, the knock on the door was hard to remember, and she didn't know what the knock on the door was like to others.

And compared to the reason for entering this place, she is more concerned about another thing at this time - that is how to get out of here.

Although she has always had a restless heart and used to yearn for adventures in the restricted area, but in fact, she knows how difficult she is, and now that she has really arrived at a similar place, she feels a little helpless.

She only wished she hadn't brought those expensive charms and the two pistols with her before she fell asleep.

Turning his head, he saw that Lu Zhan was thinking, the guy named Bai Mo was still looking around, and the one-eyed old man was hunched over, staring at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking.

This is a rather strange team, and no one spoke along the way.

Just like that, everyone had their own thoughts and didn't have a fixed direction of travel, so they followed the old man and walked into the depths of the mist with twists and turns.

During this period, Lu Zhan took a chance to glance at the writing on Xia Yuxi's left hand, then checked the ice gloves and ice carving knife in her hand, and then looked away calmly.

This place does not seem to belong to humans, or in other words, everyone here is dead, and the corpses are sleeping in the countless red coffins in the hut, which have been destroyed along with the times, and have been silent for an unknown number of years.

There are strange and powerful creatures everywhere, with fangs and claws, biting and devouring, they use the most primitive physical strength to kill each other, there is no compromise between each other, only life and death, cruel and terrible.

Everyone couldn't help but think, if it wasn't for this black land with some kind of power that can absorb blood, maybe this place would have turned into a sea of ​​blood long ago.

The biggest creature they saw along the way was a gigantic ape, covering the sky and the sun, almost as high as a twenty-story building, squatting halfway to grab prey, but at a certain moment, it was rolled up by a tentacle that popped out of the air, It was dragged into the clouds and disappeared without a trace.

"There is actually an ecological chain in this place..."

After witnessing all this, Lu Zhan was shocked, and then thought of something deeper.

If you have to say which force has the most profound research on the forbidden zone, it is undoubtedly the banning bureau.

At the beginning of its establishment, the Bureau of Removal of Prohibition existed to eliminate the restricted area, but because of the chaos caused by the continuous increase in the number of supernatural beings, it was added the responsibility of maintaining order among the supernatural beings.

The Bureau of Removal of Prohibition is under the unified jurisdiction of the parliament. However, due to the scattered distribution of restricted areas, it is difficult to connect many safe areas together, and some urban areas cannot even find a road to communicate with each other. Therefore, as time goes by, the major urban areas have become relatively independent. .

Although it is still nominally under the unified jurisdiction of the parliament, the Bureau of Removal of Prohibition has basically evolved into each city's own power, and it also hides its own secrets.

For example, with the appearance of the taboo sequence S-Gravekeeper, Dongyang City did not report the matter to the council.

It's not that Dongyang City has selfish intentions. In fact, the appearance of any S-level taboo sequence will be taken seriously, let alone an active taboo sequence like Bai Mo that can freely enter and exit the restricted area.

If possible, the districts would naturally want to take them for themselves, but of course, the consequences would be at their own risk.

The parliament is well aware of the separatist state of the various districts, but they have not taken any measures. Important news between the districts is still circulating, especially the research on the characteristics of the restricted area. People keep it private.

To completely clear the restricted area and make the whole world a safe area is the original intention of the establishment of the Anti-Banning Bureau.

The first consensus reached by the parliament on the characteristics of the restricted area is that there is no complete ecological chain in the restricted area.

In the eyes of everyone, the restricted area is more like an independent small world with specific rules. They do not communicate with each other. They are synonymous with abnormality, and there is no unique ecosystem in it.

Just like in Silent Village, no one knows what those monster-like villagers survived by eating.

But if they don't survive by eating and drinking, where does their energy supply come from?

If this problem can be solved, perhaps a corner of the truth about the restricted area can be revealed.

"So this place is not a restricted area?" Lu Zhan thought to himself.

Those creatures that appeared before were too terrifying, some of them would scare him even when he saw them. With that kind of size and strength, unless the ability is really strong to a certain extent, there is probably no room for resistance at all.

This place seems to be like this forever, dark and gloomy, as if no time has passed, it is difficult to judge the time from the sky, everyone walked like this, and finally saw a small house with the door half closed.

The one-eyed old man stopped first, tightened his military overcoat, and said unhurriedly: "The man is inside."

Lu Zhan withdrew his thoughts and focused his eyes. Are there any living people here?
Xia Yuxi also became vigilant, but Bai Mo obviously had no similar concerns. He strode into the hut and let out an exclamation not long after.

Lu Zhan hesitated for a moment, and rushed in quickly.

The bright flashlight illuminated the hut, just like he had seen before, the hut was full of cobwebs and dust, a pair of red coffins stood in the middle of the room, and there was a row of footprints around it.

Xia Yuxi also followed in. She was startled when she saw the footprints, but quickly calmed down again.

The footprints on the ground were not bare feet like she had seen before, but the prints of some kind of sneakers.

Paper figurines don't always wear sneakers, do they?

she thought.

The person who exclaimed was Bai Mo, who was staring in one direction with a suspicious look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Lu Zhan asked.

He looked in the direction Bai Mo was looking at, and there was nothing there.

"I just saw someone."

"where is it?"

Bai Mo looked strange, thought for a while and said, "He went out through the wall..."

"Go out through the wall?"

Lu Zhan's expression changed slightly, is he a capable person?

"That's right, I went out through the wall, and I ran really fast..."

Bai Mo shook his head, only to find that Lu Zhan was looking at him seriously.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" he asked.

Lu Zhan hesitated for a moment, then asked: "I saw a person coming out through the wall with my own eyes, don't you... don't you think it's a bit strange?"

Bai Mo laughed and said, "What's so strange?"

"In the dream someone would go through the wall... makes sense, right?"

His tone was casual, but when he said the last word, his voice suddenly became extremely gloomy, which shocked Xia Yuxi who came closer.

Lu Zhan thought it was bad, but Bai Mo's expression and tone quickly returned to normal. He turned his head to look at the coffin in the middle of the room, and suddenly frowned.

"Who did this? The coffin lid is not closed, not professional at all..."

He went straight forward and was about to close the coffin completely, but found that the coffin shook suddenly, as if to stop his movement.

Bai Mo froze in place.

...the coffin is moving?
Lu Zhan secretly thought that something was wrong, so he hurried over to close the coffin, holding the coffin board tightly to resist the force from inside, and said, "Close it and go, let's go find the person who passed through the wall."

"But the coffin moved, and there were people inside."

"Stop joking, how could there be someone inside?" Lu Zhan laughed awkwardly.

"How is it impossible?" Bai Mo gave him a strange look, "Isn't it normal for a dead person to lie in a coffin?"

Lu Zhan was taken aback: "That's true..."

He had checked many coffins before, but there was no one inside, but he forgot about it.

... Shouldn't there be dead people lying in coffins?
As he thought this way, Bai Mo had already opened the coffin.

I saw that there was a person lying inside.

It was a pale male corpse.
