"What did you say?"
Everyone was somewhat surprised when they heard what Huo Yuanshan said.
"It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided." Peng Jinsheng muttered, and cupped his hands to several people, "Everyone, now that things have happened, I'm afraid we have to go through this again!"
"What Director Peng said makes sense." Xu Zixue, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke: "No matter who those Germans are, they are behind us now. We can occupy the cracks before them, and maybe we can find some other clues. To say the least, that The terrain around the crack is naturally formed, making it an excellent ambush point. If something goes wrong, it can keep us safe."
It's hard to fault Xu Zixue's words. Now things have changed completely beyond everyone's understanding. No one knows what will happen next.
The only thing that was certain was that once they encountered those ghostly resurrected Nazi Germans, it would definitely not be a good thing.
The crowd didn't stop any longer and sped up.
Along the way, various familiar scenes fell into view, making people feel trance-like and somewhat unreal.
After all, they have already walked through it once, and everyone's speed is much faster than before. The Germans behind them had disappeared, and soon everyone was back outside the original crack.
"Slow down! There's someone here." Huo Yuanshan stopped everyone and signaled a subordinate to go and investigate.
A faint fire came from the crack. Everyone hid in the dark and watched as the Huo family member touched the entrance of the crack and took a look, but there was no movement.
He just stood there, still leaning forward to peek, motionless.
No one could see his expression, and they didn't know what happened to that man.
"What's going on?" Hong Laojiu was impatient. Seeing that the man didn't respond, he couldn't help but sit still. "I'll take care of the useless stuff myself!"
However, what happened next made everyone a little confused.
Hong Laojiu seemed to have calmed down, but everyone saw that he was shaking.
After a long time, Hong Laojiu reached for the gun at his waist.
Everyone knew something was wrong, and they all moved towards the crack. Mr. Li and the others also became vigilant and carefully touched the crack.
With just one glance, his whole body felt like he was being shocked by electricity.
In his extremely horrified eyes, Mr. Li saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.
Inside the cave entrance, there was a group of people!
So familiar, yet creepy. For a moment, I almost forgot to breathe.
Those people turned out to be themselves!
Looking at the group of people inside the crack, no one could accept this fact.
It took a long time for someone to react.
"What...what's going on!"
At this time, the group of "selves" in the crack gathered in the depths, staring at their feet with stiff expressions, their expressions gloomy, as if they had lost their souls.
The strange thing is that there is nothing under their feet, only the corpses of Nazis in the corner who have been dead for who knows how many years are lying on the ground as before. The deformed and twisted eyes of the corpses are frozen in the ice and snow, as if they are talking to the hole. They looked at each other outside.
Questions that were puzzling at the time now finally have answers.
Those Germans with terrifying faces were not looking at the entrance of the cave, but the people outside!
A chill ran up the back of Mr. Li's back. He turned around and pulled at his grandfather who was also horrified. The two looked at each other for a long time, unable to say a word.
"I...I read that right, that's us!" Chen Ze swallowed, and the hand holding the gun couldn't help shaking.
"Damn it, I've been through all the big storms in my life, and this time I'm really fucking in trouble!" Hong Laojiu didn't dare to shoot after all, and fell down behind the stone.
Even though he was as calm as Huo Yuanshan, he also had a look of disbelief on his face. It took him a long time to say, "It's incredible!"
Everything in front of them was too unacceptable. Everyone looked at the "selves" in the cracks again and again, and no one knew what to do next.
"This is really weird, we..." Peng Jinsheng looked at Huo Yuanshan, as if waiting for him to make a decision.
"No, those German devils are coming!" Someone in the team warned. Looking back, the group of Nazi troops that had been thrown away before was approaching.
"If we shoot at this time, 'us' inside will definitely be alerted and fight with ourselves. I really can't imagine such a scene." Mr. Li shook his head.
"When the crane and the clam fight, the fisherman wins." Chu Yuxuan said, "It's too late, the Nazi Germans are already coming."
"Let's go forward. The Germans disappeared in front. Maybe we will find something." Grandpa patted Mr. Li, got up and walked forward.
Mr. Li is still hesitant, but he has no other choice now. If he continues to stay here, no one can imagine what will happen.
The cold wind howled, and everyone carefully avoided the crack and the Nazi Germans behind them. The originally annoying wind and snow now became everyone's most advantageous concealment method.
Everyone braved the cold wind and walked all the way to the place where the Nazi German troops disappeared, but there was nothing around except mountains and dead rocks.
"Continue to go!"
Everyone did not give up and continued to go deeper.
The night seemed to have no end. In order not to be discovered, no one dared to turn on the flashlight. They just used the night light reflected by the snow to walk in the darkness.
Suddenly, a little light appeared in front of him.
"It's the flashlight of that group of Nazi Germans!" Mr. Li could no longer distinguish which group of people in front of him, but the row of weak lights in the darkness made him unforgettable.
"Damn it, when did these devils catch up!"
Almost silently, the group of Nazi German troops appeared in front of everyone, like ghosts in the dark, leaving no one on guard.
Click, click, click!
Facing the Nazi German army that suddenly appeared in front of them, everyone reflexively raised the thing in their hands.
The two sides were facing each other like this, with the cold wind hitting their faces, and they were so cold that they almost lost consciousness.
The distance between the two sides was only five meters, and through the night light, everyone could even see the badges on the collars of the Nazis.
No one moved, and only the low roar of Fengxue could be heard.
"They don't seem to be moving." Mr. Li held the spike in his hand and glanced at the pale faces.
"Strange, that person's arm..."
What Mr. Li noticed was the Nazi who was clutching the cross before he died. At this time, the man's left arm was intact, but he clearly remembered that when he saw him later, his left arm was only half-length!
Bang bang bang!
I don’t know who fired the first shot. The submachine gun burst into flames, and several lines of fire flashed in the darkness.
In just an instant, seven or eight German troops on the opposite side fell.
"Hong Lao Jiu!" Everyone yelled and fell to the ground.
Gunshots rang out one after another. Hong Laojiu's men fired one after another. They all picked up the Nazi German submachine guns in the cracks. Under the intensive firepower, the people on the opposite side had no time to react and they all fell down.
"A bunch of idiots who are afraid of things." Hong Laojiu spat fiercely, "I've been licking blood on the tip of a knife for most of my life, and I've never been as cowardly as you, who cares? People are ghosts, I will kill them! Let’s go!”
With an order, Hong Laojiu rushed out.
"They're all dead!"
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Mr. Li and the others who followed them couldn't help but frown.
The presence of corpses shows that these German soldiers are real and not ghosts.
But if this is the case, how should we explain the corpses we saw in the cracks before? Could it be that two groups of identical people appeared on this snow-capped mountain at the same time?
Mr. Li once again tore off the cross from the neck of the amputated German soldier. Comparing the two pieces, they were exactly the same as the previous one.
But the strange thing is that this time, there are no scratches on it.
Mr. Li subconsciously turned around to look behind him, but his expression suddenly changed. Cang looked around hurriedly and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"We, we!"
Everyone turned around after hearing this, all dumbfounded.
"This, this is not..." Someone muttered unconsciously, and his body retreated uncontrollably.
"We...are back again!"
I don't know when, the surrounding scene changed again, and quietly, they appeared inexplicably in the place where they last appeared.
The cold wind swept across everyone's face, and no one could believe what they were seeing.
"That...over there!" One person pointed in one direction tremblingly, stammering as he spoke.
Looking at the stars dangling in the distance, everyone's heart sank.
That group of ghostly Nazi German soldiers, that group of German devils who were killed by Hong Laojiu just a second ago, have appeared again!
"No, this is impossible!" Hong Laojiu looked at the blood on his hands in disbelief, "I just killed such a grandson!"
"What the hell!" A few timid people in the team grabbed their hair and muttered to themselves in horror.
"I don't believe it!" Huo Yuanshan's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he waved one hand, "Make a nest and make dumplings!"
This time, everyone no longer ran away and found shelter on the spot.
As time passed, the sound of the storm in my ears seemed to get louder.
"beat!"
When the group of Nazi German soldiers entered the shooting range, everyone jumped up one after another, and the fire net intensively swept towards the group of ghostly Nazi German soldiers.
At this time, no one cared about whether it would cause an avalanche. In their hearts, compared with the avalanche, the German army in front of them was more terrifying.
The German army was wiped out again. Looking at the corpses on the ground, the blood dyed the white ice and snow red.
Mr. Li once again saw the German wearing a cross.
The left arm was tied with gauze, and there was even blood oozing from it.
Grandpa often said that the truth is often hidden in the inconspicuous details.
Looking at the three identical crosses in his hand, Mr. Li vaguely felt that he had discovered something, but he was not sure, and his mind was as messed up as porridge.
"Let's go, don't stop!" Huo Yuanshan didn't stop too much, and led everyone directly to the direction of the stone crevice.
Everyone almost ran over. When they passed by the cracks in the rocks, there was nothing inside. The group of "selves" inside before were all gone.
Only the corpses of the Nazi Germans were left.
Mr. Li walked up to the corpse with a broken arm and almost tremblingly broke off the cross in his hand.
It was exactly the same as the one I got for the first time, even the carvings were exactly the same.
"continue!"
Seeing that they found nothing, Huo Yuanshan turned around and left.
When they encountered the Nazi German army again, everyone almost collapsed.
It all feels like an endless cycle that will never end.
"We can't get out..."
Everyone stood on the snow blankly, with a trace of despair and exhaustion in their eyes.
In the wind and snow, everyone's physical strength was greatly exhausted, and there was not much ammunition left. They are trapped in this infinite cage. Once the supplies are exhausted, only death awaits them.
Mr. Li looked at the several crosses in his hand and muttered to himself.
"Perhaps, we were all wrong from the beginning..."
