Haunted Places Live

Chapter 71 Yosemite National Park

In the process of trekking deeper into the forest, Lin Qi kept an eye on Chu Yang's state.

He had read the song written by Chu Yang when Chu Yang was asleep, and just hummed the melody in his head, which gave him an unspeakable shock.

He could imagine how powerful this piece of music would be if Chu Yang played it on the cello.It seems that in an unstable mental state, Chu Yang's works can have a greater impact.Lynch took a deep breath, stabilized his thoughts, and tried hard to memorize the melody in his mind.Fortunately, he is also a person with musical talent. Although this piece of music is long, the main theme is repeated several times, so it is not difficult to remember.

Now they have begun to enter the deep forest that few people have ever set foot in. There are almost no roads, and the trek is extremely difficult.Panting heavily, Chu Yang walked behind Lin Qi in a daze.After all, he didn't sleep all night and his mind was chaotic, just like feeling sick.But Lynch asked him several times if he wanted to rest, and he insisted on continuing.

He had a strong feeling that time was running out.

As Chu Yang said before, the forest has undergone a change that is not obvious, but can be seen if you observe carefully.The snow is covered with large pieces of pine needles and oak leaves, which have not yet been covered by snow, indicating that they have just fallen recently, but they have already begun to emit the smell of rotting vegetation.The gradually bare branches seemed to be more twisted than before, and the bark began to rot and peel off. Pieces of black mildew were scattered around the tree, leaving only the smooth core.

Forests are dying.

As if they sensed the end of the world, they walked for so long without seeing any animals, not even a single bird.All the animals are gone.The air also gradually stagnated, no longer having fresh fluidity.

The smell of the swamp that had swallowed countless animal corpses became stronger and stronger. Lynch felt the hairs on his body start to stand on end, and his sense of danger became stronger.

Suddenly, the two stopped at the same time.

In front of them, an open space appeared.In the middle of the open space stood some huge stones, acquired from nowhere, forming an irregular circle.In the middle stood a well alone.

A barren well tangled with dead vines and brambles.

A well suddenly appeared in this remote mountain and old forest far away from human habitation, and the strange feeling became more and more intense.And the smell of the swamp suddenly became several times stronger.

Lin Qi said to Chu Yang, "Wait for me, I'll go and have a look."

"I'll go with you."

"No, you're here, look around. I don't know if those Awaniches will show up again yesterday."

Chu Yang had no choice but to nod, pricking up his ears to listen carefully to all the noises around him, but his eyes were anxiously watching Lin Qi's back.

Lynch entered the middle of the circle surrounded by boulders, only to find words engraved on the stones.As far as he knew the Awannich had no written script, so he moved closer, carefully deciphering the characters.

It is the words of the ancients.

The Old Ones, the great civilizations that descended from the stars on Earth before man came, and the Shoggoths were the slaves they created, without consciousness, just a mass of protoplasmic cells fused together in some semi-gel , can change into any shape that the owner wishes them to change, and can lift the heaviest boulders and metals.Later, Shoggoth gradually gained independent consciousness by imitating his master, and carried out the first rebellion, but was suppressed by the ancients.The ancients used hypnotism to control the Shoggoths for several centuries. It was not until their own technology and culture gradually degraded in the increasingly comfortable life that they lost the ability to control the Shoggoths. The rebellion of the ancients and the successful independence from the hands of the ancients also accelerated the decline and demise of the ancients on the earth.

The Shoggoths learned much of the culture of the Old Ones, including their writing.Could it be that these boulders were erected here by Shoggoth?Lynch carefully inspected the soil around the boulder, and found that the stone should have been here for some years, and the lettering was worn to a certain extent.

Perhaps those Indians discovered the entrance to the sleeping underground city of Shoggoth, and got out these huge stones and stood them here.Perhaps the well was the entrance, a sanctuary to the reclusive Indians.Maybe that's why the small branch of the Awaniche worshiped a race that hadn't walked in human history.Lynch couldn't be sure whether the Shoggoths had a way to communicate with the Awannitch, or whether there were undiscovered multi-observers among those people, who could have some kind of connection with this second-level race creature?

Lynch walked towards the well, leaning on the edge of the well and looking towards the dark, unknown hole.

The strong stench made him hold his breath, and a creepy instinctive reaction made him want to close his eyes, but he continued to look at the opaque darkness.He twisted his vocal cords in the language of the elders, and pronounced the name "Shoggoth".

Suddenly, in the dense darkness, like stars lit up, eyes opened one by one.Some are huge, some are tiny, some look like human eyes, some look like lizards, some look like fish, and still others are clearly still evolving eyes.Those eyes appeared and disappeared like pustules, wandering in a black mass.Are they densely packed, huddled together like frog eggs, and looked at him at the same time.

"Xiao Yang! Do you remember that tattoo? Pull up your sleeves!" He hurriedly turned around and shouted at Chu Yang.

Chu Yang hurriedly took off his winter gloves, trying to roll up the sleeves of his heavy winter clothes.But at this moment, a terrifying thunder roared from the depths of the earth, and the whole earth trembled.

He saw an extremely shocking and terrifying scene.

The wellhead in front of Lynch exploded.

Huge black things sprayed into the sky, and even the earth was torn apart.Lynch's whole body was thrown out by the huge force, and his body slammed into the boulder.

"Lin Qi!!!" Chu Yang rushed over, but the ground under his feet also protruded upwards and cracked, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground.The whole ground tilted over, and he began to roll towards a certain place, and quickly reached out to grab the shrub branches on the ground.

From under the earth, huge black matter spewed out continuously like erupting lava, and spread out in all directions in the sky, bursting like a huge canopy covering several mountains.Chu Yang saw countless pustular eyes, countless eyes that have appeared on the earth and have not yet appeared, flowing, rolling, pushing and crowding each other in the black and dirty raw material that is half liquid and half solid.The numbing scene was so magnificent that it filled all his field of vision like a nightmare.

I saw a huge mass suddenly pressed down from the sky, and those cliffs and mountains that had stood for an unknown number of years suddenly collapsed and collapsed from both sides; the trees all over the mountains were crushed into pieces by the huge force; The whole land was shaking violently.The corpses of Shishan, which was destroyed by a huge force, fell from the sky like a meteorite rain. Chu Yang and Lin Qi were like ants who had no time to escape when the storm came, and they would be crushed to pieces at any time.Chu Yang's mind was blank, all he knew was to go to Lynch's side.He crawled with difficulty, and finally moved to the side of the crumbling boulder, and saw Lynch who was also covering his head with his hands and was unable to move in the violent earthquake.

Chu Yang rushed over and pulled Lin Qi over.At that moment, the boulder fell.

Chu Yang was covered in cold sweat. If he was one step too late, Lin Qi would be crushed under the boulder.

However, Lynch was already injured, and blood splattered from his forehead.It was probably caused by hitting a rock when it was blown away by a sudden explosion.Chu Yang hugged Lin Qi tightly, trying to cover the stones splashed like a rainstorm, only feeling that everything around him was falling apart.

There was only one thought in his mind: to die together.

Shoggoth's huge "palm" finally aimed at them and pressed down. Chu Yang remembered what Lynch had said before, and pulled off his coat, rolling up his sleeves to reveal the tattoo Lynch had designed for him.However, when the huge black mountain of death was less than five meters away from them, it suddenly retreated as if being stung, and then divided into two sides, avoiding them and falling around.

They fell with the earth.

Chu Yang didn't know if he screamed during the fall, but he thought he probably did.He only remembered that Lynch also hugged him tightly and fell with him.

When the dust cleared, they were still alive.A deep pit was photographed on the ground, as if it had been hit by a meteorite.

The loud thunderous noise made Chu Yang's whole mind feel like it was about to explode. He raised his head and saw that the Shoggoth had covered a large area of ​​the sky as far as he could see.He could feel the hunger of the ancient, gigantic creature, its mad hunger.It wants to eat, lots and lots of things.He wants to go where there are more living things...

Like a city.

But at this moment, Lynch let go of him, and he carefully stood up straight at the bottom of the trembling pit.Chu Yang saw Lynch close his eyes, take a deep breath, and then open his lips.

The music gushed out from the vibration of his vocal cords. It was a piece that Chu Yang had just created. There were no lyrics, just a simple chant that resonated from his abdominal cavity.

Chu Yang never knew that it was just ordinary singing, even singing without any lyrics, and it turned out that it could have such a changeable and gorgeous interpretation.It was a voice that wonderfully blended the ultimate innocence and the ultimate temptation. It was clear and transparent but wrapped in a trace of unfathomable mist. It gradually unfolded from the soft and quiet at the beginning, with perfect breath control, The perfect twists and turns remind people of the vast and silent night and the deep sea, and the beautiful siren singing that lures sailors to death.

At first, the chant was covered by too loud thunder, and it seemed to have no effect.But gradually, the proto-matter closest to them was the first to be affected.Their slaps were no longer heavy and powerful, but a little dizzy, and they began to emit ripples like circles.

Then, Lynch sang the first climax.

It is like the sea of ​​stars in the universe bursting out suddenly at a moment of being compressed to the extreme, like the ring ripples that have been stirred for tens of millions of years after the death and explosion of the planet, like the swan song of the last thorn bird in the world before its death.The most extreme splendor is accompanied by the most penetrating death, and it is perfectly integrated with the powerful music that reveals the smell of blood, which is completely natural and complementary.It's as if the song couldn't have been expressed otherwise, only this one voice could bring out all the power in the tune.

Chu Yang was stunned. He didn't know that the moment Lynch's voice broke out in the chorus, he shed uncontrollable tears.It was a pure, shocking touch, a pure happiness to see what I created sublimated to another level.

At that moment, he even forgot the situation they were in, the ancient and powerful danger they faced, and his ears seemed to reject all the other noises that made him uncomfortable, only this sound was left, and in his eyes You can only see that one person.
