Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 479 [Chapter of Hidden Abyss] 23: Spiritual Barrier

The prosthetic eye captain and his fellow miners started to run forward, the sound of the water from the intensive footsteps trampling on the waterlogged mine tunnel sounded extremely ear-piercing, as if some kind of monster was constantly swallowing with hunger and thirst.

Chen Yan was vigilant because of the strange metaphor that appeared in his mind.

'Grass... how could I have such a deformed idea...'

For some unknown reason, he felt a little dizzy, and his head felt dizzy as if he was exhausted.

Captain Prosthetic Eye and his fellow miners were still shouting excitedly. Even at a distance of a few meters, Chen Yan could still hear the unusual excitement in their voices through the thick miner's uniform and gas mask.

Chen Yan listened to their excited shouts, felt the strange atmosphere around him, and always felt that something was wrong.

'What the hell is wrong...'

Amid strong doubts, Chen Yan looked at his teammates around him.

The spherical Tungus in the backpack shivered all over, and said over and over again: "Chen Yan, something is wrong, Chen Yan, we shouldn't have come to this ghostly place, I feel that there are eyes everywhere, eyes everywhere... let's leave! !"

Through the gas mask, Chen Yan saw Weber frowning tightly, as if he felt some discomfort. When he felt Chen Yan's gaze, Weber whispered: "Let's not hurry..."

Pauline Walker next to Weber had already picked up the gun, his face was full of vigilance, like a trapped beast, and after feeling Chen Yan's gaze, he said, "Damn, this place is very weird. , I always feel like I’m being watched.”

Finally, Chen Yan stopped Jack Baldo who was walking in front.

Chen Yan patted him on the shoulder, and he turned around—I saw that under the searchlight and in the gas mask, Jack Baldo's face had completely turned into a shriveled face like a mummified corpse!
Jack Baldo turned into a living corpse!
"I... I suddenly feel a little hungry." There was a trembling panic in Jack Baldo's voice: "You have to say a few words to me from time to time, if I don't answer, you run away!"

What the hell is going on here!

Is it an illusion produced by the strains on the side of the mine?
If Jack Baldo wasn't fatally injured, he shouldn't have turned into a living corpse... So, the living corpse state of Jack Baldo in front of me was actually my hallucination?
Chen Yan didn't know the answer to this question.

He thought again, is the strangeness I felt just now also caused by the strain on the side of the mine tunnel? !

Suddenly, countless thoughts came to mind, making Chen Yan's inner alarm ring loudly.

'In the process of reasoning just now, I overlooked something! '

'what is it? ! '

Chen Yan knew that his consciousness must have been affected, and according to the current situation, only hallucinogenic strains could affect people's minds!
After thinking hard, Chen Yan finally remembered something.

'Yes... yes!I remembered!

When I was in the waters of the karst cave, Tungus Spherical once told me that it had read the company’s investigation report, and the strains in the crevices of the rock wall could transform rocks into snake-kissed rocks...

It is the [colloidal moss] that feeds on strange snakes that I just saw, and it has long been named [snake-kissed plant] by the company!

But I completely forgot about it! '

'At that time, I didn't understand whether the thing that transformed the rock into the charged ore [Snake Kiss Rock] was the secretion from the strange snake group, or the [Snake Kiss Plant] that feeds on strange snakes? '

'Now it seems that [Snake Kiss Strain] and the strange snake group may coexist. '

'And... still!There are four kinds of strange snakes I encountered, not three!Next to the engine that exploded at the front end of the A-17 fan blades, Paul Kim Walker once killed dozens of strange snakes that looked like bugs, which was also one of the strange snake groups-I even put this incident that just happened forgot! '

'damn it!Death is imminent!I can think of these top balls! ? '

'Anyway, my head must have been affected by [Snake Kiss Strain]! '

Countless thoughts exploded in Chen Yan's head. He didn't know what happened, why part of his memory was suddenly forgotten, and his spirit suddenly became like this panic. He could only attribute all this to 【Snake Kiss Strain】The influence on him.

The matter has progressed to the point where it has completely exceeded Chen Yan's control. He immediately made a decision and said to his teammates:

"We can't go any further! Let's get out of here!"

When they turned around to leave, they found that the way they came from was gone, and there was only a black stone wall glued together by [Snake Kiss Plant] in front of them. The way they came from was completely blocked, as if it never existed!
The spherical Tungus screamed in Chen Yan's backpack:
"It's over! We are being targeted by them!"

The voice of the bald Perrett also reached Chen Yan's ears:

'Don't panic!According to the company's previous research, [Snake Kiss Strain] will catalyze negative emotions. Once you panic, the panic will continue to increase in your heart! '

'You must understand that everything weird is fake!All the horrors are the illusion caused by [Snake Kiss Strain]!Don't believe in things that are too bizarre in front of you! '

Prompted by the bald Parrett, Chen Yan felt awe-inspiring, tightened his mind, and consciously controlled his mental panic and confusion.

At this moment, he remembered the strangeness he had faced before, and the courage that burst out from the heart when he faced the great fear appeared in his memory. He had used this courage to train himself countless times, until now, that courage has been deeply buried In his memory.

The mental interference of [Snake Kiss Strain] shielded his memory, like a vague "membrane" covering his memory, and Perrett's reminder seemed to be opened on the "membrane". Through a small hole, Chen Yan opened the way to his soul along the small hole, so the courage born from the heart filled his whole body again.

When Chen Yan came back to his senses again, the black rock wall blocking the way had disappeared.

He looked at his teammates, and saw that Weber was groping around in the air in Chen Yan's eyes where the black rock wall was originally.

Paulkin Walker also stood where the black rock wall that blocked the road was, and kicked into the air with one foot after another. Judging from the vibration of his legs and feet, it seemed that he had really kicked something hard.

'I see!The location of that wall has never been in the [mortal world], but in the [mind] or [spirit]! '

'[Snake Kiss Plant] let this wall appear in the [mind], if you can't break through this [spiritual barrier], you can't move on. '

'It's never any physical obstacle that blocks the progress, but the heart that stagnates because of lack of courage! '
