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

Chapter 582: Old Silk Cloth
During this hour, no one smoked for fear of being discovered. They just stood there stupidly with their eyes wide open.

I have to say, this past hour was pretty damn uncomfortable.

But when the fog cleared and everyone looked into the potholes, they were all stunned!

From what I could see, the entire pit was in the same state as when everyone left yesterday, with only corpses and minced meat.

The two crushers were emitting black smoke at this time, which means they were in operation.

But the most amazing thing is that there is no one working!
To be precise, there was no one even standing!
When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but feel shocked in their hearts, and they all subconsciously thought that Ma Zhengshan and others had escaped.

If they ran away, where would we find them in this deserted mountain?

Then, the person with the telescope subconsciously took out the telescope and put it to his eyes.

Soon, Wang An, who had a very good memory, discovered that the number of intact corpses in the potholes had increased.

To be precise, there were a few more people lying on the ground, but no one knew whether they were dead or alive.

Mainly, it can be clearly seen from the telescope that the clothes of these new people are very intact, that is, there are no wounds on their bodies.

Wu Dong looked at the potholes through a telescope and said in disbelief:
"What the hell is going on? Are those people in front of the crusher new?"

Wang Shuai then said:

"Yes, they are new. I am sure they were not there yesterday. It is strange. What are they doing lying here? Are they dead?"

Sun Nian also asked with a puzzled look on his face:
"Are they alive or dead?"

Zhang Shuya was already worried about what happened today. When she heard what these three people said, she said solemnly:

"It looks like they are dead. If they weren't dead, they shouldn't be lying there. But they don't seem to have any wounds on their bodies. The one with a piece of leather tied around his shoulder is the eagle breeder we met yesterday."

When Feng Chengmin heard this, he quickly said to Wang An:
"Xiao An, give me the telescope so I can take a look."

Upon hearing this, Wang An subconsciously handed over the telescope, and after Feng Chengmin looked through it, he said with certainty:
"Yes, it's him. The man lying next to him was hanging around him yesterday."

Seeing the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, Wang An thought for a moment and said:

"No matter if they are dead or alive, let's go over and fire a few shots, then go down to the pit to see what's going on."

As they talked, everyone walked towards the top of the mountain next to the pothole.

On the way, Feng Chengmin reminded everyone, "Be careful, this place is really weird."

Ma Guoqiang, who was next to Feng Chengmin, echoed:
"Yeah, it's really boring to not even hear a bird singing."

Soon, everyone reached their destination. This time there was no need to lie down and shoot. Everyone stood on the top of the mountain, put their guns to their faces, and pulled the trigger at those people who didn't know whether they were dead or alive.

As a series of "bang bang bang" sounds rang out, those who didn't know whether they were dead or alive didn't even shed a drop of blood.

Mu Xueli said with trembling lips: "It seems like he and the others have died a long time ago."

This was the first sentence Mu Xueli had said since the time he came here. However, it was obvious from this first sentence that Mu Xueli was scared and his speech was incoherent.

After discovering his brother-in-law's abnormality, Wang An felt helpless, mainly because Mu Xueli's psychological endurance was too limited.

Fortunately, Mu Xueli's behavior was just fear, and it was not like what the older generation said, "being possessed by evil spirits" or "losing his soul."

So Wang An frowned and said, "If he died a long time ago, then he died a long time ago. What's the point of this? Are you afraid of a dead person?"

Hearing Wang An's powerful words, Mu Xueli seemed to feel much better immediately, and then murmured:

"I'm usually pretty brave, I don't know what happened to me."

Wang An rolled his eyes at Mu Xueli and said unhappily:
"Fuck, you look like a bear, you are nothing."

In fact, with so many people together, Wang An didn't want to say that to Mu Xueli. After all, adults have a big face and children have a small face, and everyone has self-esteem.

Although Wang An is Mu Xueli's brother-in-law, it is really inappropriate to scold his brother-in-law like this.

But Wang An had to give Mu Xueli courage. Wang An was really afraid that Mu Xueli would have some problems because of this incident.

The main reason is that fear is an accumulated emotion. Once a person starts to be afraid of something, all he or she can think about is the thing that he or she fears.

The worst thing is, the more you think about scary things, the more you will think about them, and then you will become more and more afraid. The more afraid you are, the more you will think about them, and this vicious cycle will continue. It is very likely that your spirit will collapse, which is what the older generation called "losing your soul."

To put it simply, it is what the saying goes, "scared out of my wits."

No matter what, losing face is better than losing your soul.

Everyone was silent as they watched this scene. Only Zhang Shuya stepped forward and softly comforted Mu Xueli:

"There are so many of us here, what's there to be afraid of, right? Besides, you are a grown man, but you are not as good as an old woman like me."

As soon as Zhang Shuya finished speaking, everyone pursed their lips and lowered their heads.

I have to say that Zhang Shuya’s words “I’m an old woman” are really tough.

At this time, Feng Chengmin said:

"If you ask me, we should hurry down and take a look, and leave here as soon as we are done. What do you say?"

Wang An heard this and said:

"Well, let's go. The sooner we finish, the sooner we'll be better."

As they talked, everyone walked towards the pothole together.

From the time everyone left here yesterday until now, there has actually been no obvious changes in the pothole, except for some more mineral powder and 7 corpses.

Just the expressions on the faces of these seven corpses made people feel very uncomfortable, because they all died with their eyes open, and their facial features were distorted, with their eyeballs bulging out.

Of course, everyone had seen this through telescopes before, but it was not as intuitive as it is now.

Moreover, the bullets that everyone had just shot at them were just like hitting flesh, leaving a hole directly without a drop of blood.

It is obvious that these people have died a long time ago, but we don't know how they died.
After a brief observation, Wang An searched the pockets of the two men with guns. As for the five men who did not have guns, they were undoubtedly laborers. Wang An was too lazy to even take a look at them.

After taking out their bag and picking up a Type 56 Chong and a Type 56 Ban from the two men, everyone left.

After leaving here, Wang An couldn't help feeling very happy when looking at the aged silk cloth in his hand.
