Chapter 60 Sin in the Basement
What comes into view is a narrow corridor, and on both sides are cells that look like prison cells.
There are eight sturdy cells in total.
It was dark, dirty, and the entire second floor of the basement was filled with a stench.
It was the smell of decaying corpses.
Even wearing a protective mask doesn't help.
An action team member couldn't bear it anymore and ran out and vomited.
Even Team Leader Liu was holding back the turmoil in his stomach at this moment.
In the nightmare world, Lin Mo was already familiar with this smell, so his reaction was the most indifferent.
A body was found in the first cell.
It should be an old man, tied to the operating bed, and there were all kinds of hand-drawn pictures posted around him. Lin Mo recognized it just by glancing at it.
The painting is of a female ghost in wedding clothes.
The painting style is also weird.
Different angles show the female ghost's appearance in all directions, as well as her skinning methods and the terrifying haunted house.
It's like forcing the person on the bed to watch.
The cell door is locked and cannot be entered at the moment.
Lin Mo looked at the old man who had obviously been dead for a few days and had a guess in his mind. He immediately walked to other cells.
Except for two cells that were empty, the remaining five cells were occupied.
There are two places where old people are also imprisoned. They look like they are dying in a horrible way. Their expressions are as if they have really seen a ghost, and their eyes are about to pop out.
Similarly, the corpses of the two old men were also surrounded by portraits of ghosts in wedding clothes.
As for the other three, they were not that old, and the difference was that there were no pictures hanging in their cells. But each of these three people was scarred, and it was obvious that they had been subjected to inhumane abuse on a regular basis.
It was probably the first time for Team Leader Liu to see such a scene, and he was so shocked that he was speechless.
The most important thing is that this place is so weird. Why should we lock people up and do these things?
Team Leader Liu didn't know, but Lin Mo had a guess.
The action team members found a large set of keys hidden on the underground floor. They took them down and tried them one by one. Sure enough, they opened them.
At this time, Lin Mo suddenly said: "Everyone get out, I suspect there are pollutants here."
Everyone else was trembling.
Team Leader Liu reacted and immediately ordered everyone to stand by outside.
"Expert Lin, I'll accompany you." Team Leader Liu came over with a hint of determination in his tone.
Lin Mo knew that Team Leader Liu had long wanted to apply for an expert training program, but the Security Bureau had not approved it. But if you are accidentally exposed to pollutants while performing a mission and are marked with nightmares, then life is a cooked meal.
Lin Mo glanced at the other party: "Team Leader Liu, are you really ready? Don't get me wrong, I just want to tell you that being able to sleep peacefully is already a luxury for people like us. If you really If you are willing to give up all this and be ready to face the fear in your heart, then I will not stop you, otherwise, I suggest you wait outside."
Team leader Liu and Lin Mo looked at each other.
After thinking for a moment, he turned and left.
As the leader of the Security Bureau's action team, he also has some authority and knows many situations in the nightmare world.
Naturally, he knew the mortality rate after entering the nightmare world.
Even among the Security Bureau's carefully selected elites, the mortality rate on first contact exceeds 70%.
In fact, only one in 10 people survive their first three nightmare encounters. And as long as you can survive more than three times, you have basically found a survival method that suits you.
Of course, even so, it cannot be said to be completely safe.
Some experienced senior experts sometimes die unexpectedly.
Just like Lin Mo said, people who are marked by nightmares will never have a peaceful sleep again, because every time they fall asleep, they are playing a game with death, and every time they fall asleep, they may never wake up again.
Once, Team Leader Liu thought he was well prepared, but the more he learned about the nightmare world, the clearer he became that the previous preparations were actually not enough.
Team Leader Liu retreated outside, leaving Lin Mo alone on the second floor of the basement.
He walked into the first cell.
It couldn't be seen clearly from the outside before, but after coming in, you can find that there is a small screen installed on the bed, about ten inches in size, but it is turned off at the moment.
As expected, the scary video should be playing on the screen before.
Video is a source of pollution.
Lin Mo continued to look at the pictures hanging around the bed, each of which was lifelike. In addition, there are some printed papers with the same content as the diary that Lin Mo found before.
The strange story about the ghost of a married woman.
The above description is even more absurd and weird, and can even be read as a horror novel.
Seeing this, Lin Mo felt that his previous speculation should be correct.
This is creating a "nightmare" artificially.
Not surprisingly, these old people were all the same. They were found in that remote mountain village. These people had heard the strange stories about the ghost of a married woman since they were young. In fact, the ghost has been a lingering thought in their hearts since they were young. Get to the root of fear.
In order to deepen their memory and sense of fear, some people deliberately let them read the content of ghost stories, and combined these hand-drawn female ghost patterns to make the original scary ghost stories more concrete.
In this way, they are infected by the pollutants and enter the nightmare world, and naturally the nightmare of the wedding dress ghost will be born.
"It turns out that the source of the female ghost is here."
Lin Mo muttered to himself.
It should be Zhao Xin who did it.
Lin Mo also knew the purpose of the other party's actions. First, he wanted to create a terrifying nightmare, and then find ways to control the other party and strengthen his power in the nightmare world.
But how could Zhao Xin know so much?
Lin Mo had an idea at this time.
It's an evolution forum!
It must be the Evolution Forum. Zhao Xin is an old member of the forum. Most of the things he mastered were learned from that place.
Lin Mo didn't know anything else, but he was sure of one thing now.
The members of that underworld forum are all a group of evil, sick-minded anti-human perverts.
Well, except for myself.
Didn't Team Leader Liu say that Zhou Li was also a frequent visitor to that website? Maybe Zhou Li, the perverted murderer, is also a member of this forum.
Some broken clues began to be gradually connected together at this time.
"When you have time, be sure to look through the previous posts on that forum."
Lin Mo made up his mind.
Go see the other three bodies.
Two men and one woman.
Look at the woman first. She was only wearing dirty underwear, with almost no intact skin on her body. Her neck was chained and she was already dead.
But it seems that he didn't die for long.
There was a TV screen in her cell, and the horrific video was playing on it.
When Lin Mo saw this, he directly picked up a stool and smashed the screen.
There were many wounds on the woman's body. It was obvious that she had been imprisoned and tortured for a long time, but she was not killed.
There were no fatal injuries.
It's like dying in a nightmare.
Lin Mo's eyelids twitched and he immediately rushed into another cell. Here was a young man who, like the woman, had just died.
The same TV, the same horrific videos, the same abuse and imprisonment.
Lin Mo already knew what was going on, and he rushed into the last cell.
Here was a middle-aged man. Lin Mo first smashed the TV that was playing the video to pieces, and then went over to check on this man to see if he also died in a nightmare.
As a result, Lin Mo checked and found that the man was still alive.
The other person was pretending to sleep, and when he felt someone touching him, he screamed in horror.
"Zhao Xin, don't kill me. I beg you, don't kill me. I'll give you whatever money you want."
The man screamed and struggled hysterically.
Lin Mo noticed that the other party had his eyes closed, his eyelids were swollen and bleeding.
blind?
No wonder he didn't die, because he was blind, so he couldn't see the scary video.
At this time, Team Leader Liu and the others rushed in.
Apparently a man's scream was heard.
"Expert Lin, this is..." Team leader Liu was shocked when he saw this man. He was disheveled, his eyes were bleeding, and his neck was chained. He looked like an evil ghost.
"Rescue people first." Lin Mo could see that the man had triggered a stress response at this moment. In fact, the man was on the verge of death.
But after finally finding a living person, we definitely couldn't let him die like this.
Team Leader Liu also reacted.
Call someone over for treatment immediately.
Lin Mo didn't need to worry about the rest. The man was carried out and would be immediately sent to the nearest hospital for treatment.
Lin Mo searched the second floor of the basement carefully.
When he entered the door, he found many torture instruments, rusty spikes, saws, and hammers, all with blood stains on them. They should be tools used to torture others.
Walking up from below until outside the villa, Lin Mo took a deep breath.
Staying in that kind of environment, the whole person will feel extremely depressed.
Next to him, Team Leader Liu said: "I didn't expect that there would be such evil under this seemingly luxurious villa. That Zhao Xin deserves to die. Even if he doesn't die, he will still have to be shot."
His tone was indignant.
Lin Mo looked up at the night sky and said after a while.
"He may have done this just to...not die!"
Everyone can write down the scariest nightmares they have ever had in the comment area, and Eggplant will watch it, and then it will select a few to write into the story, looking forward to sharing nightmares.
