Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 3 The Secret in the Warehouse
As a modern person, Chen Zhi is an absolute materialist, he doesn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, but this time his intuition tells him that this matter is by no means that simple.He always felt that he should go to the youth forge again, there was the answer he wanted.

But this idea is indeed too absurd, after so many years, Chen Zhi has no idea of ​​the situation there, maybe the factory has been acquired and rebuilt long ago, even if he wants to visit it, it is appropriate to go there during the day.

He had smoked more than half of a pack of cigarettes, and the time on his phone showed that it was only 10 minutes before twelve o'clock, and it was pitch black outside the window.

"What the hell is Mr. Guo looking for me for? Why doesn't anyone remember him..." Chen Zhi lay on the bed tossing and turning, tormented by his persistent curiosity.

Suddenly, a terrifying idea rushed into Chen Zhi's mind,
"What if Mr. Guo was already dead? He was killed 15 years ago in front of that warehouse. Then... what was that thing I saw? A ghost?"

After putting out the last cigarette butt, Chen Zhi made a decision. Just tonight, he would go to the warehouse of the youth forging factory to see what happened back then. Although it was absurd, he didn't want to Cranky by the torment of the night.

Chen Zhi is not a timid person, but he knows that it must be scary to enter a factory in the suburbs at night, but if the factory is really acquired and remodeled, it will not be easy to attract attention at night, otherwise it will be difficult to break into the heavy industry factory area during the day. Getting caught is troublesome.

Chen Zhi first copied the map on the note onto a piece of white paper, and then prepared things to go out.

The location of the youth forging factory is very remote, and at this time, he can only go there by taxi. Chen Zhi took his mobile phone and map, packed a portable tool bag with some simple tools in it, and changed into a work uniform , put on a hat, lowered the brim of the hat and walked out of the house.

Chen Zhi stopped a taxi, and the driver looked Chen Zhi up and down first, with obvious doubts in his eyes, robbery of taxis in the middle of the night happened occasionally in this city, and Chen Zhi also carried a heavy tool bag .

After Chen Zhi got in the car and told the driver the destination, the driver said he knew the factory, but it was too remote, and he could take Chen Zhi there, but he would have to pay an extra 20 yuan, and Chen Zhi agreed.

"Little brother, what are you doing there in the middle of the night? That factory seems to have been abandoned for a long time..." When the taxi was driving on the road, the driver asked Chen Zhi tentatively.

"I'm going to get something, you wait for me outside for a while." Chen Zhi replied in a low voice.

"Bring something? The factory has been abandoned for so long, and it is said that it was haunted. What are you taking?" The driver was a little flustered after hearing Chen Zhi's words, and Chen Zhi became more and more abnormal in his eyes.

Chen Zhi didn't speak any more, but looked down at the map in his hand. The taxi driver saw that Chen Zhi ignored him and stopped asking. He gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator to drive to the suburbs.

Driving very fast on the road at night, about four to ten minutes, the taxi stopped at the gate of the youth forge in the suburbs.

The wind at night was very cool. Chen Zhi got out of the car and looked forward. This place was exactly the same as the impression in his memory. The scarlet letter is still there.

"Little brother, I'll wait for you for 10 minutes. If you don't come out, I'll leave. Also, you have to give me the money first. I'm not afraid of this place!" The driver poked his head out of the car Said to Chen Zhi outside the window.

Chen Zhi gave him part of the money, and told him his mobile phone number, so that he could wait in the car with peace of mind.

The taxi driver just wanted to say no, but found that Chen Zhi had already walked towards the factory gate quickly. The abandoned factory was pitch black, like a ghost land. in the car.

The gate of the factory is surrounded by iron railings. This is a typical 60s iron gate, but after more than ten years of wind and rain erosion, there is a big gap in the railing, and Chen Zhi just managed to get in.

After entering the factory gate, there is a straight concrete road. On both sides of the road are weeds as tall as a person. Many large steel parts are abandoned in the weeds. They are already rusted. In the dark night, they look like one by one. Like a wild animal with its teeth and claws open, Chen Zhi felt a chill on his neck when a cool wind blew from time to time.

According to the markings on the map, Chen Zhi quickly determined the direction. The road was all cement roads. After a while, he had already entered the main factory building.

This factory building is very big, and the inside is dark and scary, and the faint moonlight can't get in at all. When Chen Zhi walked inside, he felt that there seemed to be a ghost lurking in the darkness in the factory building, secretly smiling, waiting for Chen Zhi to come out. cast a net.

Even though Chen Zhi didn't believe in ghosts and gods, he still felt his legs go weak at the moment.

Chen Zhi took out the flashlight from the tool bag. This flashlight was from Langyan. He spent a lot of money to buy it. The light of the flashlight is very strong and can illuminate tens of meters away. He tightened the tool bag he was carrying, held an iron crowbar in his hand, and walked towards the factory building.

After entering the depths of the factory building, the moonlight could not shine in at all, and the surrounding darkness became even worse, as if entering another world.

Chen Zhi passed by some equipment operating tables, and saw thick dust on them, and some miscellaneous tools scattered on the ground. The inside of the workshop was very deep. Chen Zhi walked more than 200 meters, and suddenly appeared in front of him. duty room.

The door of the duty room is an old-fashioned wooden door, which is covered with dust. Chen Zhi stepped forward and pushed it with a crowbar. The wooden door was very old and fell down immediately, making a heavy muffled sound and splashing a lot of dust .

Chen Zhi took a flashlight to take a picture, and found nothing unusual. There was only an old-fashioned wooden table, a single bed, a folded stool in the duty room, and a red leather notebook on the table.

This is a work diary. Chen Zhi flipped through it casually, and saw that the last page read: "Everything in the factory is normal, important parts will be delivered tomorrow, pay attention to receiving them."

The date is written on July 1992, 7, and there will be no words after that.

There is a drawer under the wooden table, and there is a marching kettle in it. Chen Zhi picked it up and shook it. There was a sound of water in it. Chen Zhi unscrewed the lid, and a strong smell of wine wafted out.

"People were very frugal at that time, why was this small pot of white wine thrown here?" Chen Zhi thought in his mind, put the kettle back and left the duty room.

Chen Zhi continued to walk forward. Behind the duty room was a long and narrow corridor, surrounded by darkness, without any sound at all.

Along the way, Chen Zhi always felt something was wrong, as if someone was staring at him in the dark.

After walking for some time, the corridor finally came to an end, and a small door with glass appeared in front of it. Chen Zhi had a very deep memory of this place. After going out of this door, it was the warehouse where Mr. Guo was hit.

Chen Zhi stopped at the small door, the glass of this small door was already covered with dust, and the outside scene could not be seen.

After Chen Zhi hesitated for a moment, he pushed open the small door, and saw the warehouse in his memory in the darkness ahead.

But Chen Zhi's heart sank at this moment...

There was a big dent on the door of the warehouse, which was obviously hit by a huge impact.

Chen Zhi immediately felt his palms sweat a little. He knew that the memory of his childhood was not a hallucination, everything was real...

Chen Zhi walked over, and under the bright moonlight, the whole warehouse could be seen very clearly.

The gate of the warehouse is made of thick iron sheet, which is now covered with rust marks, and the middle of the gate is dent after being hit by a truck.

Chen Zhi touched the deep dent on the gate, felt the power in his heart, and thought silently, "It is impossible for a person to survive this level of impact, then I..., then I will go to the next day What is that teacher Guo you saw?"

At this time, Chen Zhi's brain could no longer control his fears and fantasies. The three or nine days in the Northeast were already very cold, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.

Surrounded by weeds as tall as a person, Chen Zhi felt that there seemed to be a person standing in the grass in the distance, looking at him coldly and grinning in the dark.

And the teacher Guo from 15 years ago seems to be standing behind the door of this warehouse, crawling on the door covered in blood, glaring at Chen Zhi who missed the appointment.

Chen Zhi's scalp was numb, and cold sweat broke out from his head. It was absolutely impossible to retreat now. If he left now, he would be tormented by this matter forever in the future.

"You must go in and have a look!", Chen Zhi thought to himself, and then collected himself.

Chen Zhi first used a crowbar to pry open the lock on the iron door. The lock was already rusted and fell off as soon as he pried it.

After the door was opened, a gust of wind blew out from inside, mixed with a strong smell of metal and mold.

Chen Zhi scanned the inside with a flashlight. This warehouse is not big, and it is full of messy parts and broken boxes.

Chen Zhi stepped on these things and walked inside cautiously, looked around, but didn't see anything strange.

But he noticed that there was a very awkward place in the warehouse. There was a large wooden box in the middle of the ground, very isolated, as if it had been placed here deliberately.

The top of the wooden box was covered with moldy green hairs. Chen Zhi tried to push it, but the box was very heavy. He held the front of the wooden box with both hands and exerted force with his legs. With the dull friction sound, the wooden box was slowly pushed away. up.

The ground below was exposed, and it turned out that there was a cellar under the box, and the cellar door was tied with a thick iron chain and a small delicate silver lock.

"Is there something hidden here?" Chen Zhi's heart began to beat violently. At this moment, he was a little nervous, and a bad premonition rose from his mind.

This small silver lock is very delicate, without any rust on it, it took Chen Zhi a lot of effort to break it open.

Chen Zhi struggled to open the heavy iron door of the cellar, revealing an iron ladder underneath. The cellar was pitch black, I don't know how deep it was, but it was extraordinarily eerie.

Chen Zhi patted his face, collected himself, bit the flashlight on his mouth, and climbed down the iron ladder.

The iron ladder was only over ten meters long, and Chen Zhi climbed to the bottom in less than a minute.

When Chen Zhi's feet landed on the ground, a strange smell came to his face. He scanned the front with a flashlight. The cellar was very damp, and the moldy walls around him were peeled off.

When Chen Zhi shone the flashlight on the ground, what he saw made every capillary in him explode.

On the ground was an air-dried corpse with a hideously distorted face. On the wrist of the corpse was an Omega men's watch with a very conspicuous golden dial.
