Chapter 119: The Dog's Barking
As the bus entered the tunnel, some students with dull expressions appeared in the seats that were supposed to be vacant. The original passengers on the bus were a group of high school students who were organizing a tour, and they didn't even notice the extra passengers.
A male student was looking at the scenery outside the window. He was a local studying in Osaka. Suddenly, he saw the sign with the words "犬鸣" (Inunaki) on it, and his face changed slightly.
"Is this the Inunaki Tunnel?"
The sleepy girl nearby gave the answer.
"Yeah, just before I entered the tunnel, I saw a sign saying Inunaki Tunnel. What's going on?"
The boy with glasses next to him joined the conversation curiously, picked up his phone, searched and explained.
"The deer man must have read the story of the Inunaki Tunnel. Actually, I have read it too. It says that this is a famous supernatural place and many people have disappeared since it was built. In fact, there are not so many supernatural events. They are all rumors. We have to believe in science. The 444-meter tunnel is gone in the blink of an eye."
The high school student named Deer Man couldn't help but object a little louder.
"It's not a rumor. My home is in Shimoichi Town, less than 10 kilometers from here. Every year, people disappear in the tunnel. If the Inunaki Tunnel wasn't the only way into the mountain, it would have been closed long ago. Do you know that 30 years ago, a terrible thing happened in the Inunaki Tunnel? A bus carrying students disappeared while passing through the tunnel. The bus was found two days later in the nearby Inunaki Dam. As for the passengers, no one was found alive or dead."
The tunnel outside was pitch black, and the girl was so frightened by the story that she covered her ears to stop him.
"Stop talking, it's scary."
Seeing this, the boy with glasses wanted to continue talking even more.
"Women are just cowards. I told you that workers disappeared during the construction of the Inunaki Tunnel. I heard that they were killed by a stake."
Although the deer man kept his mouth shut, he couldn't help feeling scared when he looked at the dark tunnel outside the car. His family had warned him that there were several types of people who could not enter the tunnel: students, the elderly, women, and the disabled. This car had all four types of people.
The driver is an old man, they are students and women, and the teacher leading the team is a disabled person.
At this moment, the student wearing glasses suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"What's going on? There's no signal on my phone. Uh, isn't our car only half full? How come it's full?"
The deer man followed the line of sight and saw a group of strange students behind the car. Their skin was blue, their expressions were dull, and their uniforms were not from the same school. And as the three of them looked at them, the dull students' white eyes all looked over.
I just mentioned the story of a carload of students going missing. Given the situation, it goes without saying that they encountered a ghost. In addition, the tunnel is only 444 meters long, but it has not been exited for several minutes.
"Ghost hits the wall?"
The girl immediately hugged herself and trembled. If she had known, she would not have come to Yoshino Park for a trip. Suddenly, a more terrifying scene made the girl shudder.
I saw that both the driver and the teacher in front of the car were in strange condition. An old lady with disheveled hair and dripping water covered the driver's eyes, and the teacher in charge also strangled his neck with both hands, with a ferocious face like a demon.
Perhaps the old woman noticed her gaze, and suddenly turned her head 360 degrees and gave her a "friendly" smile. Her skin was wrinkled into countless layers, looking very disgusting.
Soon the bus crashed into the wall and overturned amid the screams of students. Many students suffered bloody head injuries from the bumpy ride. Screams and laughter were heard everywhere. The laughter came from the ghosts of students in the back seat of the bus.
A female ghost with wet hair said with a smile.
"Come and keep us company, it's too lonely, hehehe."
At the same time, there were two men standing at the end of the tunnel. They were the Fox Valley brothers who had passed through the Inunaki Tunnel earlier. Fox Valley Guangya looked at the overturned bus more than ten meters away, and then looked at the ghost shadow slowly appearing in the tunnel and said.
"These old ghosts are really greedy. They created another bus disappearance incident. Aren't they really afraid that the human authorities will close the tunnel?"
Fox Valley Hongya on the side asked with a little concern.
"Brother, why did you bring these old ghosts out? What if they eat the two women?"
Fox Valley Guangya patted his brother on the shoulder and looked confident, but in fact he was not sure in his heart, after all, those old ghosts did not have much rationality.
"Don't worry, the dogs are too close to our Fox Valley. They know that our ancestors have a big happy event to celebrate, so they dare not eat the gifts without giving them face."
The two brothers from Fox Valley felt itchy when they thought of the two women with spiritual powers. If they had better gifts, they could enjoy the small gifts they prepared last night.
At this time, the ordinary people in the car were not optimistic. Nearly all the students were either possessed or being pulled by ghosts and screaming.
Soon the off-road vehicle appeared in the sight of the fox brothers as expected. Just when they were expecting the old ghost to succeed, a huge thunderous sound cut through the entire tunnel, and the old and new ghosts were frightened by the sound of spring thunder.
The evil spirits that had been possessed were also ejected from the body one after another, and a thunderclap directly affected the evil spirits' spirits.
At this time, the off-road vehicle stopped, and Yuzuru Nagayama walked down from the vehicle with a shadow, holding a third-level ghost. This third-level ghost looked like an 80-year-old man, with a rotten body and a very hideous appearance.
But now it could no longer look ferocious. As soon as it emerged from the car window, it was discovered by the driver, who then beat it up and broke it. The spirit began to gradually collapse.
Nagayama Yuzuru looked around and did not deal with the ghosts first, but looked at the two people at the end of the tunnel. The Fox Valley brothers, although they could not see through the other party's breathing techniques, it was still very intimidating to capture a third-level ghost. "What should we do, brother?"
Fox Valley Guangya turned around and didn't intend to meet him.
"Get out of here first."
Before the two men left, thunder suddenly sounded from the dark clouds in the sky, followed by a bolt of lightning that made everything pale in comparison, and also instantly turned the two fox demons into charcoal.
Now the little jumping insect that could run was finally slapped to death, and Yuzuru Nagayama's spiritual power was no longer concealed and all of it burst out. In fact, it was lucky for the two mixed-haired foxes to die under the first thunder from the sky of the Five Thunders.
The wave of spiritual energy made all the ghosts take a few steps back, looking at the fat meat that was about to be in their hands, they were unwilling to leave.
As the spiritual power on Yuzuru Nagayama's body turned into golden light, the evil ghosts even stopped pulling the frightened students. Only a few old ghosts who had completely lost their minds pounced over, they only wanted flesh and blood.
【Hundred-year-old ghost】
[Second level]
Seeing that it was only a second-level soul, Yuzuru Nagayama condensed a water ball with a wave of his hand, and then transformed and compressed the water into a cannon and bombarded the old ghost. The soul, which was already entangled with resentment, could not resist and was directly shattered.
This scene really frightened the surrounding ghosts, and they disappeared into the mud one after another.
In Yuzuru Nagayama's view, these wilderness ghosts are trouble. Once they find a place to hide, they will be difficult to find, and he cannot chase them through walls.
However, the monk may run away, but the temple cannot. The ghost domain has been broken and I can use my mobile phone to search the Internet. Just now, Nagasawa Huangquan said that he had heard of the name of Inunaki Tunnel in high school. I don’t believe that I can’t find useful information.
Soon, information uploaded by some netizens revealed the relationship between Inunaki Tunnel, Inunaki Dam and Inunaki Village.
The story began sixty years ago, when the government expropriated the land of Inunaki Village to build a dam because of its geographical location. The villagers were given a week to do so, but they didn't move the graves of their ancestors when they left, so they were submerged by the diverted river water.
This is the route from Inunaki Village to Inunaki Dam.
In the first ten years after the dam was built, people drowned every two years, but the deaths did not attract the attention of the people around, after all, drowning while swimming was common. It was not until the Inunaki Tunnel was built that strange things began to happen frequently. Some passers-by said they heard strange noises in the tunnel, followed by people disappearing, and even the supernatural incident that shocked the whole country thirty years ago, when dozens of students disappeared.
As Yuzuru Nagayama was flipping through the pages, he came across an interesting piece of information. It was rumored that more than a hundred years ago, the entire village of Inunaki was full of bandits who specialized in robbing and killing passers-by and villagers around them. Later, the adults were wiped out by several heroes, but the children of the bandits were not killed because they were young.
Some people speculated that these graves submerged by the river might be those of the robbers who were massacred that year.
So that's how it is. He was a bad person in the first place, and he couldn't rest in peace after his death, so of course he would cause trouble to others.
After calling the emergency number for the students, Yuzuru Nagayama left them alone and flew to the dam in front of the tunnel. Looking from above, he could not help but frown. He could see that the feng shui of the dam and the tunnel was very bad, so why were they built here in the past?
This place is actually very close to Fujiwara Iori's hometown, less than a few kilometers of mountain road. However, because of the Inunaki Tunnel, the villagers usually only dare to go in the direction of Nakagawa Town. The three locations are roughly a triangle.
Only after Yuzuru Nagayama climbed up the dam did he understand why no water was released to deal with the grave. This dam was considered to be an upper-middle level dam, and it affected the drinking water and irrigation of farmland for 100,000 people living at the foot of the mountain, so no one took action based on speculation.
Of course, his actions were not speculation, because even standing by the dam one could detect underwater vision, probably coming from the bottom of the water tens of meters deep.
Vicious, incompetent and furious, you don't have to guess to know that they are the old ghosts who just escaped.
Yuzuru Nagayama looked at the water and spoke lightly, as if he was speaking to the vengeful spirits.
"If it were someone else, they might not be able to do anything to you, but it's a pity that you met me."
Dark clouds gradually appeared in the clear sky, and a few minutes later a heavy rain formed a curtain of rain, covering everything happening nearby.
The sound of dripping water continued, and Yuzuru Nagayama walked on the water as if it were flat ground. Whenever a ghost came up and wanted to attack him, it would be crushed by the water containing spiritual power.
After a few unlucky guys were killed, soon no old ghost dared to show up again, and they all thought of hiding under the water and waiting for the evil spirit to leave.
Yuzuru Nagayama didn't wait for them to come up with a countermeasure. As his palm touched the ground, his pupils began to turn golden.
A whirlpool began to form on the vast surface of the water, and then a waterspout hundreds of meters high connected the sky and the earth. The waterspout not only raged on the surface of the water, but also made a mess in the water, and countless mud and sand were sucked away and sprayed out from hundreds of meters high.
Soon, the bodies of the missing students were blown away by the tornado, followed by some graves without owners. The old ghosts were immediately anxious when they saw this, as they were earthbound spirits and could not lose the graves they were attached to.
Then the second wave of attack occurred again, but was quickly defeated. Although the vengeful spirits lived under the water, they were not water ghosts. If they tried to get close, they would only be swept away and torn to pieces by the whirlpool.
At this moment, a short old ghost screamed, and its grave was sucked away. As a ghost bound to the earth, it was obviously unable to stay away from the grave for a long time. When it appeared on the water surface with its grave in mind, it was immediately sucked away and torn into pieces by the tornado.
The process was repeated over and over, and in less than 10 minutes, most of the ghosts had disappeared. The remaining stronger old ghosts did not want to sit and wait for death, so the most powerful headless evil ghost took action in advance and devoured his former companions in order to increase his strength.
