Strange Story: Please Stop Telling

Chapter 58

"On the left side of the stone chamber, there is a bronze door."

"We had a hard time prying it open."

"Inside is a dusty terrace."

"At the end there is a long spiral staircase."

"This long ladder seems to be built on the mountain, circling from top to bottom. Looking down from the edge of the terrace, you can only see circles of dark silhouettes."

"The wind brought water vapor up from below, and the smell was very strange. I couldn't tell what it was like for a while."

"Meigu couldn't help but say: This ladder seems to protrude from the ground out of nowhere, it's weird."

"Hearing this, we looked at each other, then we each clenched our weapons and walked up the long ladder."

"The light source is only a searchlight in Fourth Master Sun's hand."

"At this moment, the thin monkey who was walking in the front suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: Something is coming up!"

"All three of us were stunned."

"When I was in a daze."

"I heard a burst of footsteps coming from the stairs below, as if there were many people climbing up the stairs! The movements were neat and stiff."

"Fourth Master Sun quickly scanned down with a searchlight, but he didn't even see a single person."

"Mei Gu frowned: This is really strange, why is there no one? Then what are these footsteps?"

"Skinny Monkey nodded and agreed: It's quite strange, could it be... caused by the echo of the water below?"

"Seeing him say this, I always feel an unspeakable taste in my heart."

"So, I bit my middle finger and scratched my eyelids twice."

"When I looked forward again, I saw a pair of people in white linen clothes walking on the stairs."

"Their hands are all on the shoulders of the one in front."

"It's amazingly consistent and neat."

"What makes my scalp tingle even more is that the guy in the lead is about to meet the skinny monkey!"

"I was shocked: Skinny Monkey, run away!"

"However, it's too late."

"Those hands tightly grasped the thin monkey's shoulders. His eyes immediately relaxed, he raised his legs and moved forward woodenly, stretched out his stiff hands, and put them on my shoulders."

"Seeing this, my scalp immediately went numb, and a chill ran from the soles of my feet to Tianling Gai."

"If this is caught by him, then I will die!"

"Instinctively, I jumped back. I grabbed the thin monkey's calf and threw him to the ground."

"However, even though this kid had a big bump on his forehead, he still didn't wake up."

"Instead, the people behind him slowly raised their heads."

"Until now, I suddenly realized that they... have no shame at all!!"

"That's right, everyone has no skin. Their faces are bloody and bloody, and even their cheekbones can be seen. They're so white!"

"At this moment, all the capillaries in my body are scattered in an instant."

"Cold sweat, all broke out."

"However, the more terrifying thing is yet to come!"

"Before I came back to my senses, another sound of footsteps came from above my head."

"I slowly raised my head, and saw a group of people like them slowly walking down from above."

"The difference is that these guys are all wearing tattered red clothes, and there are two blobs of blush on their white paper faces!"

"My heart started beating violently."

"I now understand who they are!"

"This is the Red and White Double Happiness Sha! Hurry up and dodge, don't let them collide!"

"I yelled at Meigu and Fourth Master Sun."

"However, there are happy charms above, and mourning ghosts below."

"On this long ladder, which is only about one meter wide, how should I avoid it?"

"Suddenly, Fourth Master Sun threw the searchlight down and glanced at it with the brief light: there is water below, jump!"

"At this time, we have no time to think about it."

"Meigu kicked away the mourning ghost on the skinny monkey, grabbed him and jumped down."

"And I dragged Fourth Master Sun to follow behind."

"In my ear, the sound of the wind howled, piercing my eardrums."

"Originally, I thought I would fall into the pool safely, but I never thought that before I was about to enter the water, I was pushed from behind hard."

"The force of the impact was almost relieved, and Fourth Master Sun and I rolled into a ball on the ground. Fortunately, the ground was sticky and wet, so nothing happened."

"And the person who pushed us was none other than Mei Gu!"

"At this moment, she was lying on the ground dripping wet, her exposed skin turned red, as if it had been corroded by something."

"Just when I was amazed, a huge splash of water suddenly splashed in the pool, filled with blood."

"The skinny monkey stuck its head out desperately, its hands were scrambling in the air, and its mouth was vague: Help...help me..."

"Seeing this, I subconsciously wanted to catch him."

"However, the place where he was soaked in water is rapidly festering."

"Then, faces surfaced on the surface of the water. They were all laughing. Their cold laughter made me shudder crazily."

"Meigu got up from the ground with difficulty, took a few long breaths, and then said in a trembling voice: This is the corpse pond, and there is a potion that can corrode the flesh in it. As soon as I touched the water, I felt something was wrong. No, so..."

"Before Meigu finished speaking, Fourth Master Sun sneered: So you used the skinny monkey as a stepping stone and fled ashore, right?"

"Hearing this, I was surprised and looked at Mei Gu in disbelief."

"The latter nodded directly, and said with a wry smile: I'm sorry, I can't die here."

"After receiving her affirmative answer, Fourth Master Sun stopped talking, but his eyes were as indifferent as a falcon."

"I was caught in the middle, and I couldn't say anything for a while, so he picked up the searchlight that fell on the ground, tried it, and it still works, and began to carefully check the surrounding situation."

"This is a very spacious open space. In addition to the corpse pool in the middle and the stairs extending upwards, there are three half-person-high caves nearby. Each of them is almost exactly the same."

"Fourth Master Sun slobbered, and looked at me: The cunning rabbit and the three caves, which one to choose?"

"I heard that, I didn't say anything, but took out a stack of yellow paper from my pocket, divided it into three and lit it at the entrance of the cave."

"Two of them burned quickly, and many arms stretched out in the darkness, grabbing the paper ashes that floated into the hole."

"I looked at the ashes at the entrance of the middle cave. The ancients were very concerned about territorial issues. When placing remains or important items, they would use evil spirits to drive away wandering ghosts. Therefore, this road is the one leading to the main tomb. .”

"After listening to what I said, Gu Mei didn't say anything, just took the lamp and led the way. We bowed our waists and followed behind her."

"But at this moment, something happened..."
