Chapter 0431 – I won’t make things difficult for you
This passageway made out of corpses was covered with blood-red moss, and Chen Ge vaguely remembered what Li Zheng had once said, that one must be quiet and not make too much noise in the blood-red passageway.
Li Zheng didn’t tell Chen Ge the exact reason for this, but only said that the school staff had reminded him of this.
”If it’s too loud, will it wake up these corpses in the walls?”
As his eyes swept past the faces, Chen Ge moved more gently, taking each step cautiously.
With the white cat in front of him to open the way, he wasn’t too worried. However, before taking a few steps, Chen Ge suddenly heard a sound coming from behind him, as if someone was running in the passageway.
”Those two crematorium workers are very afraid of me, they will never enter the passageway to look for me until they have no choice, there should be monsters rushing in, and there are quite a few of them.”
The commotion was so loud that Chen Ge felt that the whole passageway was trembling, as the footsteps slowly approached, the “moss” on the walls began to ooze out blood-red liquid, and on top of his head, side of his body, and underneath his feet, there were constantly large chunks of “moss” falling off, and a human face appeared.
They were very well preserved, as if they were still alive.
Their eyelashes fluttered gently, and as the blood-red juice slid across their cheeks, their skin regained vitality, and their eyelids fluttered as if they would open their eyes the next moment.
Chen Ge didn’t dare to stay in the secret passage for much longer, the space here was narrow, in case the corpses in the walls awakened, he felt that he would be buried alive inside.
”Buried alive by corpses, stay here forever, and then become one of them?” Chen Ge sucked in a breath of cool air, vaguely knowing why there were so many corpses here.
He quickened his pace and followed the white cat forward.
The secret passage was very long, the surroundings were already blood red, the “moss” was still shedding, the corpses piled up in the walls were trembling gently, and the intertwined corpses heard voices from outside, as if they were trying to pull out of each other’s bodies.
The whole passage was shaking, the wall made of corpses appeared gaps, an arm hanging down from the roof of the cave!
The scene in front of them made one’s scalp go numb, even Chen Ge’s heart was beating wildly when he looked at it, not to mention ordinary people.
Reaching out and blocking the top of his head, Chen Ge was almost lying on his back as he walked forward, an arm hanging down from the top of his head felt as if it was ready to grab him.
The voices behind him were still approaching, the corpses in the walls were slowly awakening, Chen Ge could clearly sense that they were moving.
”This three-star scene is way more dangerous than I thought.” If the secret passage collapsed at this point, it would be useless even if he released all the ghosts and monsters in his body, it was estimated that only Zhang Ya was there and could use her long hair to support a space for Chen Ge, no other ghosts could except her.
Ghosts and monsters are only one of the criteria to measure the danger of a scene, some scenes are inherently very dangerous, like in the Corpse Depot that was built underground, this place is very unfriendly to raiders.
Not far ahead came the purring of the white cat, after swallowing the blood filaments that the Weird Tales Association had prepared for the red-robed stern ghosts, the white cat had become smarter and smarter, it likewise sensed that there were changes in the secret passage, and purred sharply, as if it was urging Chen Ge.
The corpses on the walls were about to awaken anyway, so Chen Ge simply ran at full speed.
The depths of the secret passage were completely blocked by thick red “moss”, so he couldn’t see the way, and could only use his body to force his way inside.
If Chen Ge didn’t know that the white cat was right in front of him, he probably wouldn’t have drilled into the tunnel without a second thought.
The “moss” fell off, and the fragrant juice rubbed all over him. In this weird and scary environment, Chen Ge felt as if his body was wrapped by a stream of warmth, just like sitting next to a stove wrapped in a blanket in winter, and his body temperature was slowly rising.
If it wasn’t for the fact that these corpses were about to wake up, he even had the idea of staying here for a while longer.
The footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, Chen Ge didn’t bother about the people behind him, he bored his head in, and he didn’t know how long it took before the pressure around his body steeply lessened, and his vision became wide open.
”Finally out!”
His tunic was already wet, emitting that faint fragrance, and the smell of blood on the skull crushing hammer in his hand had also reduced a bit, but it looked even more hideous.
This side of the secret passage should be the core area of the underground corpse vault, similar to the secret passage, at a glance everything was covered by a thick layer of blood-colored “moss”.
”This place is equivalent to a room isolated with corpses.”
The sound of footsteps in the secret passage didn’t affect the core area too much, Chen Ge stood guard not far from the secret passage, waiting for the two crematorium workers, and he also wanted to know what was going on outside.
It wasn’t long before first Li Xu crashed out of the secret passage head first, he was obviously in shock, as soon as he saw Chen Ge next to him, his mouth opened wide, ready to say something.
Chen Ge had already anticipated Li Xu’s reaction in advance, rushing over a step in advance to cover his mouth in death, then whispered four words in his ear, “Keep quiet.”
Only after a second or two did Li Xu react and nod his head repeatedly.
At this time, Ma Wei limped out, and Chen Ge similarly covered his mouth before he opened his mouth.
Only after the two calmed down did Chen Ge speak, “There are countless corpses buried in this place, so keep your voice down if you don’t want to wake them up.”
”Bro, the corpses in those containers outside ran out, and when we went over, we happened to see them running this way.” Li Xu’s voice was tense and his face was covered in sweat.
”When you guys went over?” Chen Ge narrowed his eyes, his cold tone scared Li Xu and Ma Wei, “Were you two preparing to escape?”
”No, really no, we just wanted to go out and take a look.” Li Xu stuttered his words.
”Don’t be nervous, running away is human nature, what I’m more curious about is am I that scary? You guys would rather go look for corpses than listen to my orders.” Chen Ge picked up the skull crushing hammer and lifted the blood-colored “moss” at the entrance of the secret passageway, the corpses did not follow him in.
Li Xu and Ma Wei didn’t know how to reply to Chen Ge’s words, they both lowered their heads and didn’t dare to open their mouths for fear that they would accidentally say the wrong thing.
In fact, they were not to be blamed for being timid, after all, in this place where the murder was committed, even the process of hiding the corpses could be directly omitted.
”Alright, it’s a kind of fate for everyone to meet in the underground corpse vault, as long as you two behave yourselves, I won’t make things difficult for you.” Chen Ge said the first half of his sentence very gently, “But ugly words in front, if you two dare to mess up for me ……”
He raised the skull crushing hammer so that Li Xu and Ma Wei could see the blood stains remaining on the head of the hammer more clearly, “Think clearly, what’s stained on this can be human blood.”
Li Xu and Ma Wei hurriedly nodded without much thought.
