Chapter 124 The Corpse Wrapped in Black Cloth

The factory was so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Dark and oppressive environments are more likely to breed fear in people's hearts.

The sticky footsteps around me gave me goosebumps.

At that moment, the strangely twisting tattered cloth reappeared above their heads.

The fox-woman herself seemed to have been shot in the chest, frozen in place, not daring to move forward at all.

That cloth is clearly something with supernatural power, and nobody knows if it's dangerous.

Even Lin Yue felt a strong sense of apprehension towards that thing.

But just as they hesitated to move forward...

A gust of evil wind swept by.

"Hmm"

The eerie sound of the wind was like the last breath of a female ghost with rotting and decaying vocal cords before she died.

A thick, slippery, eerie breeze gently brushed against my skin.

The muscles tensed up uncomfortably out of instinct.

The tattered cloth swayed gently in the cold wind.

That thing wasn't hanging very securely to begin with.

So it wobbled a couple of times and then fell off the top of the gate.

“Pah!”

That crisp sound.

It looked like a wet rag had been slapped on the ground.

Under this sound.

Those tangled steps all stopped at this moment.

Lin Yue and the fox-like woman exchanged a glance.

Ultimately, they both understood the same thing: they needed to check what was going on.

Lin Yue carefully stepped forward, picked up a branch from the ground, and used it to lift the rag from the ground.

He tilted his head and looked at the bright red skin underneath the tattered cloth.

"The color is quite light, so it must have been peeled off only a few hours ago. However, there are very obvious burn marks, and many places are already charred. But... despite being burned so badly, the outer layer of cloth is completely unharmed."

Lin Yue said calmly.

"I remember one of the victims in the fire was wrapped in a piece of cloth and suffocated to death, while the outer cloth was still intact." He thought for a moment, then turned to the fox woman and asked, "Do you know who this person was?"

The fox woman was still reeling from the disgusting side of it.

Only when reminded did she realize that she had read and memorized all the information about the victims of the Tianxi Textile Factory fire.

He lowered his eyes and thought for a while.

"Wei Yourong, female, a textile worker, married, was trapped in the fire on the day of the fire. For some unknown reason, she used a large amount of cloth to wrap her entire body, resulting in severe burns all over her body. Her skin was stuck to the cloth, and her death was extremely gruesome. But strangely, after being wrapped in cloth, her body under the cloth was burned quite severely, but the cloth on the outside did not show much sign of being burned."

"In other words, they are not the target we are looking for," Lin Yue concluded simply.

"...Hmm." The fox-woman nodded. "What should we do next?"

Looking inside the factory from the entrance, the dark building revealed no living creatures. No, that's not entirely true; at least the sticky footsteps and Wei Yourong were very likely inside.

"..." Lin Yue was silent for a moment, then threw away the strange rag. "Let's go around it from the side. Let's not go into this factory for now."

They are looking for Pei Shengrong, not Wei Yourong.

Moreover, since there is danger ahead, we might as well go and check other places first.

"Yes, that's fine." The fox woman agreed with the plan.

Just as they were about to bypass the first factory building at the main gate.

The darkness in the burned-down factory suddenly took on a strange, distorted appearance.

Then it was as if the continuous scene before my eyes had been spliced ​​out.

A figure completely wrapped in black cloth, emitting a strong burnt smell, suddenly stood on the flat ground in the center of the factory.

Lin Yue and the fox woman were both startled by the sight.

The figure's hands and feet were the only parts not covered by the black cloth, but those areas were severely burned, with red muscle, yellow fat, and black charred crust appearing on all four parts.

It is clearly impossible for it to be the image of a living person.

This bizarre scene was terrifying to watch.

At the same time, the air temperature dropped slightly.

The fox woman's vision blurred slightly, a sign that her mind was being affected, but she quickly shook her head and returned to normal.

The monster appeared just as they were about to go around it.

This left them somewhat unsure of what to do next.

Finally, after glancing at the motionless black-clothed figure, Lin Yue suddenly said, "Let's go first. If it makes any move, we'll deal with it slowly."

"it is good."

The two then faced the eerie black cloth figure, their eyes fixed intently ahead, gradually increasing the distance between them.

My heart rate has increased.

They quickly circled around to the side of the factory building, under the watchful eye of the figure wrapped in black cloth. By then, the factory entrance and the monster were no longer in their sight.

The strange thing cannot be seen.

The fox woman immediately breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes, which hadn't blinked for a long time, becoming slightly moist.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Unexpectedly, the figure wrapped in black cloth, which looked so frightening, did not move at all after it appeared, and was unbelievably safe.

But just as she finished blinking...

After a very subtle, soft sound.

The figure wrapped in black cloth reappeared before their eyes.

The same posture, the same distance.

The way this happened is simply unbelievable.

The fox-woman's brow furrowed slightly.

She quickly said to Lin Yue beside her, "That thing is coming too."

"Yes, I know."

The two stood side by side, while the figure wrapped in black cloth, emanating a dangerous, burnt smell, stood less than ten meters away from them.

Lin Yue also realized that this thing appeared immediately after the two of them blinked.

Could it be because of the line of sight?

The moment this question popped into my mind.

"Let's not look at that thing, let's keep moving forward."

The fox woman was very obedient and quickly followed Lin Yue's example, turning her back to the ghostly thing and walking forward uneasily.

However, part of human fear comes from sight.

But what if you know that something non-human is following you, and you can't go to see it?

That fear was instead aroused to its extreme.

The fox woman's steps were extremely tense. Every step she took seemed to require all her strength, and she hadn't walked more than a few meters before her breathing became rapid and labored.

"Whoosh!"

Even the sides of his face were covered in sweat.

"Don't look back," Lin Yue added as a reminder.

This single factory building is not very large.

They walked for about two or three minutes and were about to arrive at the second factory building.

But as soon as they arrived at this so-called second factory, strange things began to happen.

The door was open, and it was pitch black inside, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. A strange black cloth hung at the top of the door, moving without any wind.

This familiar scene was exactly the same as when they first entered the factory.

The fox-woman's eyes were filled with disbelief.

We just passed the first factory building and came to the second one, but why does this one look almost exactly the same as the first one?

Even the pebbles scattered at the entrance and the weeds growing at the base of the wall are exactly the same.

A guess instantly popped into her mind.

A maze of ghosts.

They appeared to be walking in a straight line, bypassing the first factory building and arriving at the second one, but in reality, they had been affected by a strange force and had simply gone in circles, returning to their original location.

In that case, the factory's main entrance must be behind them.

To verify this conjecture.

She tried looking back.

But at that very moment, a pair of hands, severely burned and almost charred, suddenly reached out from behind her and placed on her shoulders.

The fox woman's eyes widened instantly, and her body stiffened.

It's that damn thing!

It ran up behind me!
