A+ A- Turn Off Light

  Chen Ge had already prepared himself mentally, no matter what he encountered, he would not open his eyes.

  With his body drowned in darkness and the noisy sounds in his ears fading away, it was as if he was walking alone in the depths of the ocean.

  The loneliness of being far away from the world, the fear of facing the unknown, with the confusion about the end.

  All sorts of emotions came over him, as if the tentacles of a water monster were slowly strangling his body.

  ”I’ve experienced this loneliness many times before, and in order for this loneliness not to happen in reality in the future, so this time I must go on.”

  Chen Ge muttered, not knowing whether he was deliberately saying it to others or encouraging himself.

  After walking out a dozen meters, Chen Ge’s palm touched a blank, and while making his third attempt, the fork in the road finally appeared again.

  He did not hesitate and entered the fork in the road.

  The temperature plummeted, Chen Ge didn’t know if he had made the right choice, he had never been a particularly smart person, and was able to get to this point by relying on his superior insight, boldness, and the guts he had cultivated since he was a child.

  Touching the slippery wallpaper, Chen Ge emptied his mind, thinking of nothing.

  His ears could only hear his own footsteps, but slowly, the footsteps that originally carried a specific rhythm were disrupted, and something followed Chen Ge.

  ”Don’t look, don’t think.”

  To not see is to not have, to not think is to not exist.

  Chen Ge reassured himself that he wasn’t disturbed.

  More footsteps gradually began to appear in the quiet tunnel, and it seemed that Chen Ge was not the only one in this place.

  Those footsteps only sounded behind Chen Ge at first, but slowly, except for the side of the wall, there were footsteps everywhere around.

  Chen Ge’s heart felt like a cat scratching, he was very curious, but he still didn’t take off his homemade simple “blindfold”.

  After experiencing so much, Chen Ge possessed a very strong ability to adapt, he quickly controlled himself and let himself get used to the presence of footsteps.

  He kept giving himself the mental suggestion that the things making the footsteps didn’t mean to hurt him, at least from the current situation, it seemed that the other party was just passing by with Chen Ge.

  ”Could it be that I’m already walking on a passageway that only ghosts and monsters can find?” It was probably only a few seconds before Chen Ge realized the problem again.

  In addition to the sound of footsteps in the tunnel, the sound of wheels crushing obstacles unexpectedly appeared again.

  ”A car passed by me?” There was only one car in the tunnel at the moment, and that was the cab that the driver had driven in, “Who started the car? That driver didn’t disappear?”

  The driver who drove Chen Ge to the eastern suburb was just a random person Chen Ge found on the street, it would be too far-fetched to say that he had a light with the eastern suburb tunnel, the probability of this was so small that it could be ignored.

  ”It shouldn’t be the driver, there’s something else driving?” Chen Ge was about to continue thinking down this line of thought when something even more unbelievable happened.

  He clearly heard the roar of an engine in both ears, and more than one car drove past him.

  ”What the hell is going on?”

  Blinded, Chen Ge didn’t know what was happening around him, he could only rely on his sense of hearing.

  The footsteps around him gradually accelerated, and those things seemed to start running in a certain direction.

  ”Something more terrifying is chasing them? Or did the thing in front that attracted them forward finally appear?” Chen Ge didn’t know if he should follow them and run forward, his eyes were blindfolded and he had difficulty moving.

  After hesitating for a moment, he maintained his original speed, keeping his nerves on high alert, always being careful, and using all the senses he could still use to understand this “world”.

  ”That slippery feeling on the walls has disappeared, leaving only the coldness, and it’s much flatter to the touch, as if it’s been repaired.” Chen Ge was tempted to take off his “blindfold” to see, and he realized that the world had changed in some way since he had entered the fork in the road.

  The tunnel on this side of the fork and the tunnel on the other side of the fork led to two different worlds.

  Continuing forward, the tunnel became more lively, and he vaguely heard the sound of someone talking, and the further he went, the louder that sound became.

  But what made Chen Ge feel strange was that those people were talking loudly and harshly, yet he still had no way to understand what the other person was trying to say, and could only feel the emotions contained in that voice at that moment – agitation, anger, and a hint of panic mixed in.

  ”What’s happening outside?”

  Chen Ge didn’t stop walking, although he was still in the tunnel, the situation outside was completely different from before.

  With the sounds of footsteps, screams, car horns, and the sounds from tires and engines, it seemed that this tunnel was still in use.

  ”If the tunnel hadn’t been sealed off, it would have been this lively inside, right?”

  Chen Ge didn’t know where he was right now, but there was one thing he was certain of, everything he was experiencing should be related to the real owner of the White Dragon Cave Tunnel, and there was a high probability that the other party had intentionally brought him to this place.

  The surroundings were getting noisier and noisier, and all sorts of sounds were pouring into Chen Ge’s mind, making it impossible for him to determine what was actually happening here.

  He only knew that the owners of all the footsteps were moving towards a certain place, and the vehicles were all driving towards a certain place.

  ”Why are they moving forward?” One question after another surged to his mind, and while Chen Ge was thinking about it, a different sound entered among his left ear.

  The surroundings were too noisy, so he didn’t hear it clearly, but only knew that it was a child’s voice, clear and broken, as if it was injured.

  Chen Ge followed the “crowd” a few more steps forward, and the child’s voice appeared again.

  ”It’s not right ……”

  Chen Ge stopped walking this time, he realized something very strange, the child’s voice was coming from the left rear.

  While all the “people” and cars were running forward, the owner of that voice stayed where he was and didn’t move.

  If another person came here, he might not even realize this, but Chen Ge was different, in order to break the situation, he had been tense, always watching the surrounding.

  He didn’t dare to speak for fear of exposing himself as different from those “people” around him.

  ”Save me, save my mom ……”

  After an interval of a few seconds, the voice appeared again, still in the same position.

  ”Strange, I can hear so many voices, but it’s only this faint voice that I can hear most clearly.” He could feel the despair contained in the other party’s words, a feeling that was hard to describe, so uncomfortable that just hearing it would vaguely make his heart ache.

  Turning around, Chen Ge didn’t know that there was something dangerous coming from behind the tunnel, he approached that voice out of instinct.

  Moving his feet little by little, Chen Ge was like a blind man, slowly feeling his way.

  He was getting closer and closer to the child’s voice, but just then, his shoulder was touched, and someone anxiously yelled at him.

  The voice was loud, telling him to hurry up and leave, as if staying here would put his life in danger.

  ”These people are probably the undead souls that entered the tunnel with me just now, they are fleeing for their lives in a hurry at this moment, then the one chasing after them is most likely the owner of the tunnel!” Chen Ge’s brain circuits were completely different from those “people” in the tunnel, and he was very clear about his own identity, he was the bait, waiting for the owner of the tunnel to show up on his own initiative.

  It was very risky to do so, but this was the only simple way Chen Ge could think of to break the situation, and he had always been straightforward in his actions.

  The “people” in the tunnel obviously misunderstood him, and the voices around him became clearer as they urged him to leave, telling him that if he stayed any longer, he would really die!

  In the face of those people’s persuasion, Chen Ge did not move, and soon his ears caught a new sound, as if some kind of liquid was leaking, ticking, very close to him.

  Seeing Chen Ge’s reluctance to leave, those who had persuaded him, left him alone, and the tunnel was quiet again.

  The sound of footsteps disappeared, the sound of tires crushing debris also disappeared, the sound of car horns gradually disappeared, and it was as if the tunnel had been completely abandoned by the “people”.

  ”Help me, help my mom ……”

  The child’s voice once again came from a location near the wall, Chen Ge groped his way over and slowly crouched down.

  He was blindfolded and couldn’t see, and he didn’t dare to speak now for fear of creating unknown changes.

  After pausing for a few seconds, Chen Ge extended his unprotected hand towards the place where the sound was coming from.

  The fingertips touched a cold liquid, Chen Ge was familiar with this touch.

  ”It seems like blood.”

  He slowly exerted force, and his five fingers grasped a slender arm.

  ”I’m stuck in the car window, go save my mom first, she’s in the driver’s seat!”

  The child’s voice reached Chen Ge’s ears, he didn’t immediately move to do what the child said, but suddenly thought of something else.

  The voice had started out ringing in his left ear, and Chen Ge had heard it clearly, and now that he had turned around, the voice was still close to the wall, but the words he was saying were strange.

  ”Being stuck in the car window, how did you just speak into my ear from the side near the wall? I was up against the wall the whole time!”

  What was even more worth pondering was that the driver had also left a comment when he disappeared, saying that there was something very scary on Chen Ge’s left cheek.

  ”Coincidentally, the ghostly thing the driver said was in the position of my left cheek, and it just so happened that the child’s voice came from that position, so if the driver hadn’t lied, the horrible monster that had frightened him so much should have been the ‘child’ that was conversing with me at this time. ”

  Chen Ge gradually understood that the reason why the driver had disappeared, I’m afraid that it was also because he had seen the true face of that monster and ruined the other party’s plan.

  ”My mom is in front, save her, save her, okay?” The voice was mournful, making it hard to refuse.

  ”Okay, I’ll help you.” Chen Ge didn’t know what kind of horrible face was hidden under this child-like voice, he chose to follow the other party’s request to save the child’s mom just because he felt it was the right thing to do.

  Under the child’s guidance, Chen Ge bent over and slowly moved forward.

  The ticking sound in his ears never stopped, a strange odor wafted in the air, and the further Chen Ge moved forward, the more dangerous he felt.

  Blindfolded and unable to see anything, Chen Ge could only slowly feel his way.

  His hands quickly felt the outline of a car, bending down, his hands touched the woman’s hair.

  Without speaking, Chen Ge moved his hands a little bit, dragging the woman’s shoulders and yanking her out of the dumped car.

  ”Take her away! Quickly! Hurry up!” The child’s voice became shrill when he saw Chen Ge rescuing the woman out, he didn’t cry and wail when he was injured like other children, his voice had a maturity that his peers didn’t have at all.

  Chen Ge didn’t know what kind of medicine the other party was selling, he dragged the woman a few steps toward the distance and then suddenly stopped.

  ”Go away! Don’t stay here!”

  Chen Ge ignored the child’s shouts, carried the woman on his back, and folded back to the child.

  He couldn’t see, and his hands kept feeling around the car window, probably getting an idea of the kid’s situation.

  The lower half of the kid’s body was stuck in the car window, the broken glass had stabbed the small of his back, and it would be easy to cause secondary injuries to him if he was dragged by force.

  With both hands exerting force, Chen Ge tried to lift the vehicle, but he simply couldn’t do it with his strength alone.

  ”Don’t mind me, take her and go!”

  I don’t know if it was because of the pain, or something else, the child’s voice was hoarse, with a crying tone.

  ”If we leave you here, even if your mother survives, she will suffer and blame herself for the rest of her life.” Chen Ge did not hold back and said what was in his heart.

  When he finished saying this, the surroundings violently became much quieter, but it quickly returned to normal again.

  ”My body is stuck, I can’t get out, so you guys should go! Or everyone will die!”

  After determining that speaking wouldn’t affect this world, Chen Ge became bold, “I have a method that might be able to get you out, but it will hurt a lot, and I don’t dare to guarantee that you’ll survive.”

  ”What method?” As long as there was the slightest possibility of survival, most people should go for it.

  ”Your hip bone is stuck by the deformed car window, I can forcefully drag you out, but in that case the lower half of your body will definitely be ruined, and the wounds on your body may deteriorate again.” Chen Ge just through the hands, probably judged a basic clear, also because he did not see those overly bloody scenes, so he dared to say such a bold method, “As you said, stay here to die, try, maybe there is still hope of survival.”

  ”But if I die in the process of dragging and pulling, then won’t you be my murderer?” The child suddenly said this.

  If it was in reality, perhaps Chen Ge would really hesitate, but here, he was not panicked at all: “As long as I can increase the probability of you surviving by one percent, so what if I take the blame for the rest of my life?”

  He laid down on his side, his feet stepping on the deformed car window, his hands holding the upper half of the child’s body, “It’s going to hurt a lot later, but as long as you get through it, life will start over.”

  The body began to exert force, the boy’s body was pulled and deformed, the sound of bones being misaligned was extremely ear-piercing, the child’s skin was cut and blood continued to come out, but Chen Ge did not have the slightest intention of stopping.

  With all his strength, he finally pulled the child out of the deformed car window.

  ”It worked! Are you okay?” No one answered Chen Ge, and the tunnel seemed to have suddenly become much colder.

  Chen Ge didn’t know what had happened, and he vaguely felt that something wasn’t right – that horrible monster that was chasing after him had come over?

  Even at a time like this, Chen Ge still hadn’t forgotten about the woman on the ground and the child next to her, even though he knew full well that those two guys weren’t human.

  ”Something might be coming over, be careful.” Chen Ge carried the woman on his back and picked up the child on the ground whose body was deformed, out of his expectation, the child in his arms was unexpectedly much heavier by the woman behind him, the two were not at all at the same level.

  At this time, he did not dwell on this, jogging forward.

  Blindfolded, Chen Ge couldn’t see the road and didn’t run far before he tripped and fell.

  Without saying a word, he got up, picked up the child, and continued forward with the woman on his back.

  Stumbling, his body bumped in the tunnel, and he didn’t know how many times he had fallen, when Chen Ge stood up and was about to hug that child, a voice sounded at his side.

  ”Are you a fool?” This voice was exactly the same as the voice of that child just now, but that voice was no longer in pain, instead, it had a trace of indifference and inexplicable resentment.

  Chen Ge didn’t reply and tried to hug the other party, but he touched an empty spot.

  ”There really are such people in the world.” The voice sounded once again, this time coming from above Chen Ge’s head.

  Frozen in place, while Chen Ge didn’t know what to do, his shoulder was gently tapped, and a pair of cold, piercing hands encircled his neck, untying the sleeves of his blindfold.

  Opening his eyes, Chen Ge twisted his head to look and realized that the one standing behind him was none other than the female ghost of the tunnel.

  Only compared to last time, she had become much better looking, at the very least, her skull had not been cracked open, and her five senses were all where they should be.

  ”It’s you?” Chen Ge revealed a smile and was about to go over to get close when a huge spider shadow enveloped him.

  Tilting his head to look, the smile on Chen Ge’s face froze, even after seeing so many ghosts and monsters, at this moment, he felt a hint of terror.

  Right above Chen Ge’s head, there was a huge, upside down, red spider made up of countless obsessions and severe ghosts.

  The red color was even more piercing than the red clothes on the tunnel girl ghost, as if blood was flowing through it and was about to drip down.

  ”Why don’t you speak?” The voice came from the head of the spider.

  Following the voice, Chen Ge realized that the spider’s head was replaced by a boy, who only had the upper half of his body, and the lower half of his body was the huge spider.

  Steps and feet gripping the wall, the boy hung upside down behind Chen Ge, his eyes filled with resentment and brutality.

  ”It couldn’t be you that I was hugging just now, right?” Chen Ge’s sentence blocked the boy who didn’t know how to continue the conversation, in fact, he didn’t expect Chen Ge to hug him and escape with him, one person and one ghost both felt a pang of discomfort.

  ”It’s fine, those who don’t know are not guilty, and I didn’t do it on purpose.” Chen Ge peacefully gave himself an excuse, not waiting for the boy to respond, he directly digressed, “I came here to discuss things with your mother, I didn’t expect this situation to arise, I know that your heart is filled with hatred, I’m not going to try to talk you out of it, I just think that if you have any needs, I can help you realize them, even if it’s revenge. ”

  What Chen Ge said was completely different from what the boy had imagined, he hadn’t even anticipated that the other party would say this to himself in this situation.

  It was not good to open his mouth, so he could only remain silent for the time being.

  ”It’s fine if you don’t say anything, then can you tell me why this tunnel has become like this?” Chen Ge asked the doubt in his heart, the White Dragon Cave Tunnel even made Shadow suffer, there must be a great secret hidden here.

  The boy opened his mouth, he felt that he shouldn’t tell his past so simply, but on second thought he didn’t find a reason to refute it, in the end, with the cooperation of the tunnel girl ghost, the boy roughly told Chen Ge about his past.

  He was the child of the tunnel girl ghost, a few years ago the tunnel girl ghost and her husband divorced and drove the child back to the countryside.

  While passing through the White Dragon Cave Tunnel there was a car accident, a series of collisions, in which there was also a tanker truck.

  The flames did not know from which car burned, closer and closer to the tanker, the tunnel vehicles and people fleeing in all directions.

  The child was stuck in the window, the woman, covered in wounds, crawled out of the car, but with her strength alone she could not get her child out.

  She cried out for help from the people around her, chasing after passing cars, begging them to stop, so that if only one of them would oblige her and join her in exerting their strength, they would be able to drag the child out.

  But with their own lives at stake, no one was willing to step in at all.

  What ended up happening was that the woman who should have been able to run away didn’t choose to leave, and went back to the car to stay with her own child until the fire spread to the tanker.

  After that, the Bailongdong Tunnel was no longer peaceful.

  Many drivers would see a woman in red standing somewhere in the tunnel and would wave at them, hoping they would stop, and some had witnessed a monster constantly splicing something onto itself ……
