endless route.

Chapter 10 10. A Mass of Corpses
Zheng Yun carefully looked at the corpse hanging in mid-air, and the more he looked at it, the more ugly his face became, which frightened Sister Wang enough, so he swallowed dryly before whispering:
"Brother Zheng, what did you find?"

"It's okay, let's find someone first." Zheng Yun shook his head slightly with a serious expression, without explaining in detail.

"It should be behind here."

Sister Wang was not sure. She also saw other corpses in the depths, but she didn't find any marks, only traces on the ground in front.

"Leave a mark."

Zheng Yun took out a knife and carved a line, and asked Sister Wang to leave a mark, and then the two walked around the corpses and came to those corpses after a short walk.

The two walked over cautiously.

There are corpses scattered around the deep cave on the gentle slope, seven or eight corpses can be seen at a glance, all of them are the same as the ones seen along the way, with hoarfrost hanging on their bodies, and there may be some in the depth of the cave, but we don't know the depth of the cave, so we can't estimate it.

Call the flashlight.

A piece of white flower.

The back of the neck feels cold.

Sister Wang was speechless, the flashlight in her hand trembled, and the beam of light swayed on the rock wall.

Zheng Yun frowned deeper, and looked up at the rock wall above his head. Since entering the mine, he has seen a large number of corpses, at least a dozen.

These people all have one thing in common. They are not locals. They are all explorers or modern gold diggers, and their equipment is not bad.

It is hard not to doubt whether the deaths of these people are related to the town of La Maine at the foot of the mountain.

"Let's go."

Zheng Yun continued to walk two steps forward, but he couldn't hear the footsteps followed by Sister Wang. Looking back, he found that Sister Wang was staring behind her.

But her flashlight is forward.

She was looking at the fork behind her, but she didn't use the flashlight, staring straight at the darkness.

Zheng Yun walked towards her.

Sister Wang suddenly turned her head back, revealing a face full of horror, her eyes were wide open to the limit, her nostrils were dilated, her eyebrows were twisted, her lips were still trembling.

She didn't speak.

Put your finger over your mouth:

"Shh!"

Seeing her expression, Zheng Yun realized that something was wrong, so he immediately walked slowly, shining the flashlight in his hand backwards, and walked carefully to her side.

"There are footsteps."

Sister Wang grabbed Zheng Yun's arm and whispered in his ear, her voice drowned in the sound of water droplets.

Zheng Yun nodded, slowly put the flashlight on the ground, then pulled out the flashlight, staring at the darkness outside the fork, his whole body tensed up.

Snapped.

A faint voice sounded.

Zheng Yun and Sister Wang looked at each other, and they could clearly hear the footsteps coming from the right side of the fork, which is the road they walked when they came here.

The man didn't turn on the light.

He actually walked in the dark.

The two continued to wait with bated breath for nearly 10 minutes. Except for the sound of water ticking, they never heard the second sound of footsteps.

It seems that this person also stopped.

Zheng Yun suppressed his voice and took a deep breath. He was very nervous, and he would probably suffocate if he held it any longer, so he stretched out his hand and pushed Sister Wang's waist.

Miss Wang took a step back.

Zheng Yun picked up the flashlight, aimed it at the right and lightly threw it out, then raised his gun and flashed out of the sidewalk.

Nothing at all.

The beam of flashlight on the ground hit the front, covering the ground for hundreds of meters in an umbrella shape, and the surrounding rock walls were also illuminated, but there was nothing in front of it.

Whoosh whoosh.

A series of sharp iron chains sounded suddenly.

Zheng Yun looked back and saw an empty chair hanging on the cableway, sliding over from the darkness very strangely, unsteadily but at an extremely fast speed.

There is nothing on the chairlift.

Obviously just a pretense.

He went to the secret passage and immediately turned around, only to see a black figure quickly disappearing into the end of the mine passage, into an unknown corner, and disappeared in an instant.

"..."

Zheng Yun retreated to the fork, leaned against the wall and took a breath. The corpse hanging at the fork trembled with the vibration of the cableway, and did not stop until the hanging chair slid far away.

"Who is it?"

Sister Wang clutched her chest with lingering fear.

Zheng Yun shook his head and said nothing. He guessed part of it, but he dare not say anything now.

After resting for a few minutes, the mutation regenerated, a beam of flashlight came from the right side of the fork, and then a series of footsteps approached quickly.

"Who's in front?"

Huzi's voice echoed.

Zheng Yun poked his head out and took a look. Huzi could only see a flashlight thrown on the ground, so he was holding a weapon and probing here step by step.

"My own people, don't shoot."

Zheng Yun turned around to answer, he was afraid that Hu Zi would shoot him, just like the corpse next to him.

"Damn it, brother Zheng, I was scared to death. I said why a hanging chair slid past out of thin air." Huzi ran over quickly and got into the fork.

"Did you see anyone when you came here?" Zheng Yun asked, the black shadow he saw was running towards Hu Zi.

"No, there's only one hanging chair." Hu Zi shook his head, leaning against the wall and gasping for breath, his nerves tensed all the way, finally relaxed a little.

"Why are you leaving alone? What about Hu Ruihua and the others? Where are you going?" Sister Wang immediately asked.

"Don't mention it, Brother Zheng, this time something big happened, and we can only rely on you." Huzi sighed, and roughly described what happened to them.

He was chasing the figure just now and ran down to this fork in one breath. This part of the route is the same as that of Miss Zheng Yun, and he was indeed the one who fired the gun.

He punched someone twice for no reason before he realized that it was a corpse, but he didn't care about it.

He saw the figure running into the depths of this fork with his own eyes, so he ran to chase after him. After entering, he found that the fork was a dead end, but the person was gone.

After that, Hu Ruihua and the others also rushed over, searched around, and found a square iron door on the ground, which was as thick as a safe door.

The three of them opened the door together.

As a result, there was an inclined ladder below, and there was a huge rift cave outside, which was seven to eighty meters deep. The bottom was covered with white mist, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Huzi went down the inclined ladder and found that there were iron stairs on the wall of the cave, which zigzag down one layer at a time, connecting each floor of the mine.

The ramp is the iron staircase.

So Hu Zi tied the rope and jumped down. The iron stairs were old and rusty but harder than the road. Every other section was nailed to the cave with thigh-thick steel pipes.

The three of them couldn't find anyone, so they discussed how to find the target, so they went down the inclined ladder to the iron staircase, walked down two sections, and found that the staircase broke out of nowhere.

Like it was man-made.

Then they had to go back the same way, but when they came back, they found that the square iron gate was also closed. The three of them tossed on the iron stairs for a while, and came back after changing a door.

At that time, the mine they entered was one floor lower than the current floor. Hu Ruihua felt that something was wrong and planned to come up to discuss with Zheng Yun, so they were looking for upward steps or mines all the way.

But on the way they found out.

There are almost always Ningshuang's corpses in every fork, not only those hanging on the cableway, but also piled up at the mouth of the pit, there are hundreds of scattered corpses!
Even Huzi, with his personality, was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he didn't dare to look any further. He managed to return to this level in one breath, but a hanging chair floated over from the depths and slid past their eyes.

Startled people again.

After the hanging chair passed, Huzi pulled out his weapon and walked this way. He saw a flashlight on the ground from a distance, and thought it was one of his own people who died...

Hu Zi hadn't finished speaking, Hu Ruihua and the emaciated young man also came over after hearing the sound, and after seeing Zheng Yun and Sister Wang, they all breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall to rest.

"Huzi, why don't you yell when you find your own person, but sit here by yourself." The thin young man complained, sitting on the ground and panting.

"Brother Zheng, there is something wrong with this place. There must be corpses at every fork. Is there any saying in our Feng Shui?" Hu Ruihua asked seriously.
