Chapter 48: Black Snow
(Are there any recommendation votes?)
——————
Looking up, it was pitch black, and I could see nothing but suffocation and gloom.
In my ears, I can still hear the sound of the red-eyed rat cubs gnawing on the carcass, "chichi la la la", as if some madman in the village is sucking a handful of fat earthworms.
However, apart from these, the surroundings suddenly fell into a dead silence. There was a strangeness in the air, and whether it was me, the fat man, or the red-eyed mice around me, they were all shrouded in this strangeness.
It seemed that at that moment, we all felt that something was looking down at us in the darkness above our heads.
"hiss......"
A low and weak sound began to linger above us. Almost at the moment when the sound sounded, tens of thousands of red-eyed rats that were surrounding us actually stepped back at the same moment.
"Hiss...hiss..."
Unlike encountering some kind of danger, that sound makes people feel...unknown.
That sound was so strange.
As soon as it appeared, I thought of many possibilities. But when I listened carefully, I found that this sound was different from any sound I had heard before.
As long as a person hears any sound once, the corresponding memory will be left in the brain. But this time, I found that I have no memory of this sound at all.
It seems like countless people whispering, like fingertips gently tracing across the wall, and like fallen leaves floating faintly on the road in the dead of night. It is like all sounds, but it is nothing...
.I never thought that my hearing would have such a wonderful feeling.
The fat man was obviously a little confused, but after all, he was much more experienced than me.
After feeling the strangeness, the fat man looked at the red-eyed rats again. Those big guys covered with black hair seemed to have completely lost interest in us at this moment, and they all raised their bodies and stood up from the ground.
The fat man pulled me and told me to look quickly.
I was even more surprised when I saw all these black rats standing on the ground.
However, through the eyes of those red-eyed rats, a dangerous signal seems to be constantly being transmitted.
"Hiss, hiss..."
Suddenly I heard the voice begin to rush rapidly in the darkness above my head, and I hurriedly raised my head.
The strange noise kept ringing, getting faster and closer, and the fat man and I didn't care about the mice, we both held our breath and looked up.
However, the most uncomfortable thing is that although the voice kept hovering in our heads, after waiting for a long time, Fatty and I still couldn't see anything appearing.
In this almost devastating situation, the red-eyed rats around us suddenly all fell down. Before Fatty and I even reacted, the red-eyed rats at the front screamed and headed straight towards us.
We rushed over.
It is no exaggeration to describe the speed of these red-eyed rats as fast as lightning.
As soon as the fat man shouted: "Get out of the way!" those rats had already scurried under our feet.
The cold sweat on my body began to flow backwards. Before my eyes, I could only see dense black hair and red dots rushing towards us. Layer after layer. Wave after wave.
These things didn't seem to run over, but erupted from the crater. When the first red-eyed rat hit me, I felt as if my calf had been slapped with a sap, and the pain made me grit my teeth.
I don’t know if these rats grew up eating weights, but they are so hard. After being hit more than ten times in a row, I almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, at that moment, the fat man and I both caught each other and managed to stabilize our bodies.
However, facing such an impact, the two of us had no choice but to endure the continuous collision. At this time, we both felt that we were doomed.
The fat man yelled "Ouch", as if he wanted to vent all his strength with his mouth.
I squinted my eyes with fear on my face, thinking to myself that if God still had some mercy on me, he would just let these rats bite my neck off.
However, after we stood there for a long time and almost all the mice ran over us, something strange happened.
Apart from the impact, there were not even any traces of bites on Fatty and I.
Among the gradually thinning group of rats, the fat man and I looked at each other in disbelief. Looking back, we saw some mice holding those pink and bumpy cubs in their mouths. After picking up one cub, the other one
The adult red-eyed rats frantically ran toward the pile of corpses. Other red-eyed rats continued to search for their pups on the ground.
"I understand." The fat man suddenly raised his head and looked up, "These rats wanted to feed us to their cubs before, but now as soon as the things up there appear, they know they are in danger, so they want to run away."
When he spoke, the group of red-eyed rats had dispersed a lot, but the voice above his head was still hovering like a curse.
Just as the red-eyed rats were scattering, suddenly, another whistling sound was heard above their heads, and then there was a loud "pop" sound, and the second ball of meat coffin fell down.
In an instant, the scattered red-eyed rats rushed there again, and then we saw the red-eyed rats running for their lives with their cubs in their mouths.
The black swarm of rats was like a whirlwind, and they quickly dug the meat coffin clean.
However, the thing above did not give them a chance to breathe. After more than ten seconds, the third, fourth, and fifth meat coffins were smashed around the smokeless stove.
In an instant, the surroundings became as terrifying as hell. There were pieces of meat everywhere, and you could see the internal organs when you raised your eyes. If it weren't for the fear in my heart, I would have vomited it out again.
Although the fat man and I were not hit by the coffin, our bodies were covered with those things.
The eyes of those mice were getting redder and redder, and their movements were getting slower and slower. Both Fatty and I could tell that it was not because they were tired, but because an extreme anger was spreading among them.
Soon, all the red-eyed rats gathered together. They glared at the top of their heads and let out a series of sharp screams.
And the "hissing..." sound from above also became more rapid... It seemed that a vicious battle between monsters was about to begin.
"Obstacles of evil are rampant, and idle people avoid them."
Fatty and I didn’t know why such a scene appeared in this ancient tomb, but both of us knew that it was best to hide far away. We quietly grabbed the bloody and sticky equipment bag on the ground, and touched it a little
Step back a little.
At this moment, the largest red-eyed mouse ran along the brick wall into the darkness above. After its figure disappeared, other red-eyed mice also rushed forward like a tide.
The scene was horrifying. Many red-eyed rats were squeezed down by their companions behind them, but before they could land, they rushed up again.
They are like those soldiers on the battlefield who are red-eyed and have no idea what fear is.
"Would you like to use a flare to go up and have a look?" the fat man asked.
"I think it's better to forget it. There are so many red-eyed rats. Since they all have lingering fears about that thing and have lit up the surroundings, aren't we looking for death?" Although I said this, I actually wanted to know what was happening above.
What is it.
However, when the last few red-eyed mice disappeared in the light of the fire, I didn't hear any big noise from above.
Not only that, the screams of those mice were gradually getting weaker, and after about ten seconds, all the sounds were gone.
"Holy shit, what on earth is going on up there? Who won?" The fat man was very flustered.
"Why don't you climb up and see the results of the game?" I stared at the darkness above, feeling extremely confused.
This kind of silence is in huge contrast to the previous momentum of those red-eyed rats. They are just like human beings. No matter what the game is, the showdown at the critical moment will always disappoint the audience.
However, having survived to this day in front of tens of thousands of red-eyed rats, Fatty and I dare not ask for anything more.
Just as he was about to pick up the smokeless stove and leave, suddenly, the fat man, who was still looking up, sneezed.
"Ah, cut! Oh, why the hell are there so many black hairs, ah, cut!" The fat man sneezed and scratched around.
But after he caught us a few times, we were all dumbfounded.
Within the scope of the smokeless stove, the black hairs of the mice are scattered everywhere at this moment, as if black snow has fallen in the ancient tomb...)
