"Just now, Teacher Zigui was still here, and she was standing behind me. It was dark in the passage, and I reminded her to pay attention to her steps." Bai Xi looked nervous, his lips were white, and his eyes were fixed on the path leading downwards. door.
"Have you seen her, are you sure she is always behind you?" Xia Meng asked in a questioning tone.
"That's true... that's not true, but I heard her answer me. She said yes. It was darker in the passage. My attention was on the front and the surroundings, not behind me." Bai Xi's answer was also reasonable. among.
"When we were in the passage, who was following Teacher Zigui?" Xia Meng looked at everyone. She wanted to confirm which link had the problem. It was impossible for a living person to disappear without incident.
Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao's calm voice came out, "It's me."
For some reason, Su An, who had always been inseparable from Su Xiaoxiao, suddenly became frightened when he heard his sister speak. He actually reached out his hand to cover his sister's mouth, and looked secretly in one direction.
Jiang Cheng frowned and quickly caught this detail. Looking along Su An's line of sight, Jiang Cheng confirmed that he was looking at the wooden platform built not far away.
Surrounding the wooden platform, there are flags of various colors. The flags are painted with messy patterns, which makes people dizzy. The overall feeling is somewhat like a stage built by an old theater troupe, but it is more weird.
Su An's sudden movement sent chills down Jiang Cheng's spine, as if something invisible to them was standing on the stage, staring silently.
Jiang Cheng imagined this scene for a moment and immediately looked away.
He didn't want to be targeted by those things.
She originally thought that Su Xiaoxiao would shut up after being warned by Su An, but Su Xiaoxiao just patted Su An's hand and gave the latter a reassuring look, and the latter slowly moved his hand away.
It could be seen that Su An was very worried about Su Xiaoxiao, so he acted very reluctantly.
"It's relatively dark inside the passage, and I'm also paying attention to the surroundings. I only know that there is someone standing in front of me, but I'm not sure who it is." Su Xiaoxiao looked at Bai Xi, "And the person in front of me is you."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's reaction was surprisingly unanimous. Li Mengyao stood up and asked directly: "You didn't see the person in front of you clearly, but you saw the next person clearly. This doesn't make sense."
"It's strange, but it's true. I don't know how to explain it to you." Su Xiaoxiao's attitude was determined and it didn't look like he was lying.
Jiang Cheng had experienced a similar situation once. In the tunnel of the May incident, a ghost that could modify cognition appeared. The ghost mingled with their team and followed them, but no one noticed it. .
"Teacher Zigui!" Lu Yu shouted towards the dark door.
"What are you doing!" Feng Jie, who was nearest to her, his face darkened and he immediately pulled her away.
From the narration just now, we can completely detect the weirdness in it. There are people in front and behind, and there is no possibility of getting lost. This teacher Zigui either encountered a ghost and was trapped, or he was killed by the ghost. .
Lu Yu kept struggling, so Feng Jie had no choice but to be rough and drag her aside. He was kind-hearted and didn't want Lu Yu to be in danger.
Fatty quickly walked over and rescued Lu Yu from Feng Jie. "Lu Yu, don't worry, let's find a solution together." Fatty grabbed her arm and comforted her.
"I want to go down to find Teacher Zigui, who of you wants to go with me?" Bai Xi knew that he had limited power alone, so he turned around and asked for help, "I will go down first and go to the front. If you encounter danger, just run away." ,Do not bother me."
"Bai Xi, I'll go with you!" Lu Yu's voice was firm.
As expected, someone stood up to object, and it was the mature and prudent Xia Qiang. Xia Qiang analyzed it from an objective perspective and rationally pointed out that Teacher Zigui was obviously in danger and did not recommend that everyone take risks.
And down here... it's probably a trap set by ghosts.
"I agree to go rescue people." Su Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke without hesitation: "My brother told me that this area is more dangerous than down there."
Hearing that her sister mentioned him, Su An seemed to be afraid and shy, and hid behind her sister, but with his height and figure, the siblings looked very strange.
The best thing about team harmony is being able to talk openly and honestly, just like the situation at hand, after discussion, the team was divided into two teams.
One team, led by Jiang Cheng, went down to look for people.
The other team, led by Lin Wan'er, stayed on top as the second echelon, ready to rescue and respond to emergencies at any time.
"Don't use your cell phone here. We have a time limit of half an hour. No matter whether we find someone or not, we will be out within half an hour." Jiang Cheng looked at Lin Waner, "The timer will start from the moment we get down."
"Be careful." Lin Wan'er reminded.
Jiang Cheng's team included siblings Bai Xi, Su Xiao and Su An, as well as Xia Qiang, Yuan Xiaotian, and finally Fatty, a total of seven people.
Xia Qiang and Yuan Xiaotian decided to join temporarily after hearing that Jiang Cheng was planning to go down. It was obvious that they wanted to repay their kindness last time, which moved Fatty Jiang Cheng very much.
Jiang Cheng didn't plan to take the fat man with him. After all, the situation below was unclear. Moreover, during the meal, Jiang Cheng had already confirmed that something was wrong with Teacher Zigui.
But Su Xiaoxiao's words and Su An's performance still prompted Jiang Cheng to change his plan.
Moreover, Jiang Cheng was not sure whether any other ghosts were mixed among the people who stayed above.
After setting the time, he opened the door and Bai Xi took the lead.
The group of people held torches and walked down the winding stairs.
It was pitch black down below and as quiet as death.
Feeling the silence around them, a feeling called uneasiness fermented in everyone's hearts. After simply identifying the direction, everyone agreed to go back along the road they had taken before.
The slightly dull footsteps echoed layer by layer, reaching the ears, giving people a strange feeling, as if they were not the only people walking here at this moment, but there were other people, just in the invisible darkness around them. Walk with them, lifting your legs together and setting your feet together at almost the same frequency.
Bai Xi walked in the front as promised, followed by Jiang Cheng, Fatty followed closely behind Jiang Cheng, and then Su Xiaoxiao who held Su An's arm tightly, Yuan Xiaotian, and Xia Qiang stayed at the end of the team.
The formation of the group was relatively compact. After all, the last person disappeared mysteriously while there were people in front and behind.
The fat man sniffed, "Did you smell anything?"
Everyone stopped, and after a while, Jiang Cheng smelled a very light smell, and he subconsciously felt it was very familiar.
It's the smell of burnt meat.
Seeping in from the darkness ahead.
