Chapter 24
About a month later, people returned empty-handed, and things here came to an end, and gradually things here were forgotten by people.
A year later, a wealthy businessman came here. Following him, there was also a team of engineering teams carrying various machines and building materials.
After these people arrived, the wealthy businessmen commanded people to surround this large piece of wasteland, and people could not see it even if they wanted to.
Then, people began to move. Not only did the machines roar during the day, but even at twelve o'clock in the evening, the construction site was as bright as daytime. After about five months, all the machines stopped at the same time, and the construction site suddenly became quiet. People who were used to it were somewhat uncomfortable. I remember that people complained a lot about the rich businessman, but they all ended up in the sea and there was no news.
A few days later, the fence was gradually demolished, and a large amusement park appeared in people's sight. Now the children nearby were so happy. In the past, they had to wait until weekends, and parents could go when they had time. But now, they could go anytime and anywhere, so they pulled their parents to go and see. The parents also made their children happy and wanted to see how this amusement park was like, so they brought their children and entered the amusement park.
On the first day of the amusement park opening, it was full, and there was a long queue for each place to play. The only other place was the ancient tomb where two stone statues were unearthed. Now a haunted house was built on it, called Thriller Paradise. In fact, there was an announcement next to it: Those who enter will bear the consequences.
But even so, in order to seek excitement or to start live broadcasts to increase fans (live broadcasts were not that popular at that time), several groups of young people walked into the door of the haunted house one after another. Of course, before this, they signed a life-and-death certificate, indicating that they were voluntarily entering the haunted house and had nothing to do with the amusement park.
But when they entered, no one could come out again. The police had also found the person in charge of the amusement park, and of course they were the rich businessman. People only knew that the police walked out in a dirt shortly after entering the rich businessman's office. They never came here again. Even the reporters who came here to secretly visit disappeared halfway through the video, and the matter was left alone.
Although people repeatedly warn their children not to go in, it is actually difficult to keep those disobedient children going there to play. Even thieves and murderers are desperate and have entered the haunted house. The police often only dare to shout a few words at the door, and then retreat in a hurry, and the report states that the suspect is dead and the case hastily closed.
Later, the wealthy businessman suddenly died in his office for some time when he found out. On his desk was the stone statue in the ancient tomb, and there was a trace of blood stain on his mouth.
Then, fewer and fewer people in the amusement park, and finally an empty garden was left, but the nightmare was still not over.
In the next three months, three children were missing inexplicably. Finally, their shoes were found in front of the door of the haunted house of the amusement park, which were soaked with blood. Then the broken limbs of the three children were found in other places in the amusement park. The parents cried to death. From then on, the amusement park became a forbidden area in Chengde, and until now.
"In other words, those two stone statues are used to keep tombs, right?" Xin Hao lay on the ground, looking at the fluorite inlaid on the underground palace.
"That's right, nothing happened, but it was dug out again. This time it was embezzled by the wealthy businessman, so the wealthy businessman died first and made it himself." The man in the suit might be thirsty. He took out some snacks and two bottles of mineral water from somewhere, unscrewed a bottle and gave it to Xinhao. He opened another bottle himself, and he tilted his neck and disappeared half a bottle.
Xinhao was also thirsty, and now he temporarily put the matter of the man in the suit aside and also drank a few sips at the bottle mouth.
"This is really weird."
"Yes, what's even more strange is that there is only a suspicious tomb above, and the underground palace below is the treasure. However, there are no masters around the rich businessman, so he dug up the wall just now and stopped working. In fact, many people died at that time. Fortunately, the news was blocked in time, otherwise the amusement park would not be opened." The man in the suit seemed to know everything and talked endlessly.
"How do you know so much, it's like you've experienced it all from beginning to end."
"Oh, you have lived for a long time, and you know a lot of things." The man in the suit took a sip of water and said lightly. "You should have killed a lot of ghosts at the end of the haunted house just now. Some of them are dead explorers, and there are also guardians of this underground palace."
"Em" Xinhao knew that it was impossible for him to ask something from the man in the suit. Now that the lives of the two people are tied together, no matter how much he suspected he would just go up and say it. "What are your plans?"
"I plan to go, let's go." The man in the suit walked to the wooden wall that was split by Xin Hao, and swung a big knife and slashed at the wall several times. Seeing that the man in the suit looked like that, he didn't have any effort to hold the knife.
The wall was quickly chopped and exposed the corridor behind the wall. It was a straight downward corridor, which could probably accommodate three people side by side. The underground was pitch black and I couldn't see what was going on below.
"Huh?" Xin Hao had almost recovered. He stood up from the ground and walked to the entrance of the corridor to take a look: "There is nothing serious inside, go in and take a look."
"I think so too, but do you have any fire?"
"No, you haven't? Besides, there should be no need to fire here." Xinhao touched a small bulge and pressed it hard. The corridor immediately lit up. It turned out that there was fluorite like the underground palace on the corridor.
"You guys, how do you know?"
"We should avoid water and fire here. None of these mechanisms use water and fire to kill people. There is also the fluorite above, which you use the mechanism to start, so... it's very simple."
"Good boy, go down." The man in the suit took the lead, behind Xinhao Palace, the two entered the corridor one by one, and then a stone door slowly fell down, blocking their retreat.
"This is to force us to go down." The man in the suit was amused and crying. He didn't think so much about it at the beginning, but now he can only move forward.
Xinhao saw it openly, surpassing the man in the suit in one step, and the two daggers had already been in his hands. The man in the suit nodded with a smile.
After walking for about ten minutes, the two of them went down the steps and looked forward. A long corridor appeared in front of them, which was twice as wide as the previous corridor. Two rows of fluorite were inlaid on both sides, which just allowed people to see the situation of the corridor clearly.
Xinhao was still on the front line, and the man in the suit didn't say anything, and followed Xinhao silently.
"Why are there no mechanism here?" Xin Hao was puzzled. It took him more than ten minutes to leave. The road was quiet and there was no sound, except for the sound of their respective breathings.
"It's normal, because no one has ever walked through the Mo family's organs alive. Basically, if you advance, you will die." The man in the suit analyzed. In fact, he said that no one can walk through the Mo family's organs safely. Even Xinhao and the man in the suit themselves broke these terrible mechanisms in a very embarrassed manner.
The Mohist government said that the mechanism does not have a main switch, and each mechanism is connected in series. One starts, and the other will be brought up. As for why there is a pause, it is still unclear. The big ink word in the middle of the man in the suit asked Xin Hao to split is the most critical and fragile part of the entire mechanism. As for why he knows, who knows it?
"There should be no mechanism ahead, but you still need to pay attention to it." The man in the suit reminded Xinhao, and Xinhao nodded and walked slowly forward.
Before walking a few steps forward, two figures appeared in front of them. At first, they were blurred, but as time went by, they became clearer and clearer. The temperature inside the corridor became colder and colder, and the cold Xinhao and the other two were just trembling.
"Ghost man?!" The man in the suit narrowed his eyes, but he could not hide his surprise. Xin Hao had already made an attacking posture and was ready to change his way forward to attack at any time.
"Wait first." The man in the suit took a step forward, protected Xin Hao behind, signaling him not to act rashly, and then slowly walked towards the two mentioned ghost messengers. Xin Hao was behind, and his body slowly lowered, preparing to find the most suitable attack angle.
The man in suit came to the two ghost officers and made a syllable in his mouth. Then the two ghost officers also replied to him with the awkward syllables.
The man in the suit turned around and looked helpless: "Prepare to beat him!"
Xinhao pushed the ground with his right foot and leveraged the force. The powerful force made Xinhao fly briefly. The man in the suit suddenly turned around, leaving Xinhao with a route to attack. Xinhao flew past the man in the suit with a "swoosh" and headed straight for the ghost crew.
Seeing that these two daggers could hit the ghost officer's neck, the next second, the two ghost officers disappeared.
When he appeared again, one came to Xinhao and grabbed his ankle. Xinhao stopped suddenly and threw it out again. The other appeared behind the man in the suit. A knife appeared in his hand and slashed at the back of the man in the suit. The man in the suit felt bad, so he quickly turned around and dodged. Although the back turned around, the shoulder was still stabbed. The man in the suit held back and patted the shoulder with a good hand. The man in the suit stopped bleeding instantly. The man in the suit lifted his breath and slapped the ghost officer on the back of the ghost officer. The ghost officer just staggered for a moment. As he reacted, he swept over and went straight to the waist of the man in the suit.
The man in suit glared at him, grabbed the knife he swept with his hands, and then he broke the knife in half very simply...
The man in the suit was stunned for a moment, and the man in the suit slapped the man in the chest with another palm. The man in the ghost was knocked away and fell to the ground. He struggled a few times but still couldn't get up.
The man in the suit walked up to him and chatted with him. Is his palm still swaying in front of the ghost clerk, and it seems that he is forcing a confession.
