Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 581 Everyone Understood Immediately
Because it is said that when the "ghost soldiers pass by", all the animals will run away.

That kind of eerie scene would be unbearable for all animals, including humans.

However, for those who do not have time to dodge, as long as they do not make eye contact with the ghost soldiers, the ghost soldiers will not do anything to them.

Even if you really come face to face with the ghost soldiers, as long as you don't panic, your hands don't tremble, and don't scream or make any fearful sounds, the ghost soldiers will be unable to do anything to you.

At most it will cause a serious illness, but as long as it is treated normally, it will definitely not kill the person.

To put it bluntly, as long as your mind is stable and your will is firm, the ghost soldiers will not be able to take your soul away even if they want to.

In addition, it is said that butchers and executioners are generally not afraid of these things.

Because these people's minds, that is, their psychological qualities, are all extremely strong!
Moreover, these people have an evil spirit on them, probably because they have killed too many lives, and evil spirit is something that ghosts are afraid of.

Of course, these are all told by the elderly people in the village when they were chatting casually. There is no way to verify whether they are true or false.

However, Wang An felt that what they said actually made sense.

Even if we put aside the matters of "ghost soldiers borrowing the road" and "ghost soldiers passing by", as well as those matters of "gods, demons, ghosts and monsters", if a person can remain calm under any circumstances, then this person is definitely not an ordinary person.

Everyone rode on their horses, looking around from time to time in the hope of discovering some living creature.

However, until everyone got near the pothole, they didn't see any breathing creature.

When he arrived at the place where Wang Anneng had explored the pothole yesterday, he found that the entire pothole was filled with fog and he could not see anything.

But this is normal, because in the Northeast, even in many valleys of the mountains or in villages, there is often fog in the morning.

When the fog is very thick, visibility is very low.

However, on the top of a mountain or a hill, the fog is very thin, perhaps due to strong winds or high temperatures.

Unable to see anything, everyone could only lead their horses into the bushes.

After hiding the horses in the bushes, Wang Shuai, Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian went to look for the secret sentry again.

In fact, it stands to reason that there is little point in finding the secret sentry.

After all, if what Big Eyes said is true, if the laborers are not counted in the entire pothole area, there are only three people left in Ma Zhengshan's group.

There are three people, and they have to assign some people to watch the laborers while they work. In this way, it is easy to imagine how much fighting power Ma Zhengshan still has.

In fact, what Da Yan'er didn't know was that after he and "Gan Zi" left, Ma Zhengshan ordered the confiscation of guns and ammunition from one of them.

Therefore, the 8 people Ma Zhengshan could send to attack Wang An and others was already the maximum combat force he could send.

After sending these eight people away, Ma Zhengshan only had one subordinate left.

I have to say that Ma Zhengshan is a really cruel person. He is not only cruel to others, but also to his own people and himself!

20 minutes later, Wang Shuai, Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian came back.

I only heard Wang Shuai say in a very relaxed tone:
"After walking around for a long time, there was not a single sentry. It's good to be serious." As soon as Wang Shuai finished speaking, Sun Nian added:

"Yeah, it's really strange. Not only is there no sentry, there's not even a breath."

Zhang Shuya frowned and said seriously:

"I always feel like something is wrong. It's fine that there's no living creature on this road, but there's no living creature in this place either. Why do I feel like the first wave of voices before our ambush yesterday seemed... seemed... seemed to be some not-so-clean people?"

After pausing twice, Zhang Shuya still didn't dare to say the four words "ghost soldiers borrowing the road", and just replaced it with "not very clean people".

To be honest, in this era, almost everyone is very sensitive and taboo about things like "ghost soldiers borrowing the road", and almost no one will take the initiative to mention it in the mountains.

After all, whether it was the "Jingma Cao" or the "Dazhendi", etc.

The "ghost soldiers borrowing the road" incident has happened before, and the most important thing is that there are not just one person who has witnessed it, but many, many people.

Besides, there are records in many historical books, such as "Taiping Guangji", "Old Five Dynasties History", "History of Jin", etc., which all have introductions in this regard.

Therefore, it is completely understandable that Wang Shuai, Zhang Shuya and everyone else would be reluctant to mention the matter of "the ghost soldiers borrowing the road".

Fortunately, although Zhang Shuya did not say it explicitly, everyone understood it immediately.

The main reason was that there was no electricity in the village at that time, let alone televisions, and radios were also quite rare, which means that people's entertainment life was quite simple.

This leads to the situation that when people are idle at home in the winter, children will pester their elders to tell them stories.

Except for some folk tales, most of these stories are strange events passed down orally. To be precise, they are actually about "gods, ghosts, immortals, demons and monsters".

You have to know that children may not be able to remember the text when learning Chinese, may not be able to remember the formulas when learning mathematics, and may not be able to remember the words when learning a foreign language, but if they remember these stories, they may never forget them for the rest of their lives.

So not only Wu Dong, Wang Shuai and others understood it, but Wang An, Feng Chengmin and four others also understood it.

Although it is taboo, what needs to be done still needs to be done, so Wang An frowned and said:

"Who cares who they are? Never mind them. Let's just do what we have to do. It's better if there are no sentries. Let's just shoot like we did yesterday and talk about it later."

After Wang An finished speaking, he took the lead and walked towards yesterday's shooting position.

But before Wang An took a few steps, Feng Chengmin grabbed Wang An and said:
"Xiao An, I suggest we wait until the fog clears before we fight. The area inside is quite large. How many bullets would it take to shoot it all over?"

When Wang An heard this, he immediately felt that it made a lot of sense, so he turned around and said to everyone:

"Okay, then let's wait a little longer. From what Big Eyes said, there aren't many people left in there. I think we don't need to run around. We can just pile up together and shoot. What do you say?"

Hearing Wang An's words, everyone nodded subconsciously, and stopped almost at the same time, each finding a dry and loose place to sit on the ground.

Maybe it was because of the "ghost soldiers borrowing the road", or maybe it was because the surroundings were so quiet, so no one was in the mood to talk. Instead, they all frowned, not knowing what they were thinking about.

An hour passed in this sitting.
