Suddenly, a magnificent picture slowly unfolded in Jiang Cheng's mind. In the dark night, a tower towered to the sky. The lobby was brightly lit, full of distinguished guests, dancing figures swaying, looking forward to the brilliance, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras was endless. It was really a brightly lit day that never goes dark. , Shengsing, dancing and feasting, with a jade neck and red lips and fox eyes, and a face that is astonishing as it beats the frost and competes with the snow.
Among them, the oiran is dressed in red and has blood. He nods and raises his eyebrows. His eyes are moving. He is still holding a pipa to half-cover his face. His willow waist cannot be broken. Lotuses grow in every step. Nuanxiang Pavilion, Mandarin Duck stand, numerous candles shine, wine bottles fill, music and dancing orchestra. , until the end of time, unremittingly, every frown and smile, telling all the love...
The shock of the grand scene in front of him could not be described in words. Jiang Cheng could only think of six words: Tongtian Tower, Jile Tower.
It must be, those people before were attracted and introduced into this legendary Bliss Tower.
According to rumors, the Bliss Building can only be entered but cannot be left. This is not because there are any hard and fast rules, but because there are countless beautiful scenery in the building. Everyone who enters is deeply attracted by it, and it is difficult to extricate themselves from being there.
It was only a brief moment, and the moment he took a peek, Jiang Cheng was dazzled by the bustling beauty. His expression gradually became blurry, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
He rushed over and grabbed the walkie-talkie. The voice inside continued, and became more and more enchanting and weird. He flipped the switch, trying to turn off the obviously wrong walkie-talkie, but the switch seemed to be out of order. No matter how he fiddled with it, it had no effect.
In desperation, Jiang Cheng discovered that there was an opening and closing position on the back of the walkie-talkie, which should be powered by a battery, so he immediately opened the battery slot on the back of the walkie-talkie.
But the next second, he was dumbfounded. This damn walkie-talkie had no batteries at all!
"Where is the connection on the opposite side of this thing?"
Jiang Cheng looked at the frightened man beside him and asked.
The man's body was trembling, and his dull eyes were briefly cleared by Jiang Cheng's yell, "It's... it's another team, another team walking in front of us!" The man's voice was trembling.
That's right, the missing team must have entered the Bliss Building, as well as the so-called geological exploration team at the beginning, Lin Wan'er and others... they are all in the rumored Bliss Building now!
That Bliss Building that can only be entered but never left!
The sound from the walkie-talkie became more and more weird, and there was a faint burst of laughter. The laughter was very soft and muffled, as if someone covered their mouth and tried their best to suppress the laughter. It was neither a man nor a woman. It was impossible to distinguish, and after hearing it for a long time, the laughter seemed to come from the walkie-talkie, ringing from all directions around them in the forest.
Not daring to hesitate any longer, Jiang Cheng suddenly raised the walkie-talkie and threw it at a big rock beside him. He didn’t know how hard he used it, but the military-grade walkie-talkie was smashed into pieces. In an instant, the remaining memories in Jiang Cheng’s mind The picture was shattered and all sounds disappeared.
Jiang Cheng stumbled back a few times, crouched down, panting heavily, and his body was soaked with cold sweat. He knew that he was doing the right thing. If he continued, they would also be carried away by the mysterious laughter. Go to that Bliss Tower.
"Doctor, you...what's wrong with you?" The fat man stepped forward cautiously. The moment he put his hand on Jiang Cheng, the latter's body couldn't stop trembling, as if he was afraid.
Even No. 2, who has always been relatively indifferent, couldn't help but say, "Zero, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Cheng covered his head. His mind had never been so chaotic, as if different people were competing with him for the right to use his brain and the control of this body.
After listening to Jiang Cheng's intermittent narration, everyone couldn't help but gasp. Finally, the mature and steady Luo Yunshan stood up and said to Jiang Cheng very seriously: "I have to tell you, we didn't hear what you said. There was the sound of music, singing and dancing, and I didn’t even see any Bliss Tower.”
A frightening chill swept through Jiang Cheng's whole body. He raised his head in disbelief and looked at Luo Yunshan. The other person had a cold face and was not joking at all.
Jiang Cheng looked at the fat man for confirmation, and the fat man was looking at him with worry in his eyes.
"The walkie-talkie did ring suddenly just now, but it was filled with meaningless noises. Before we could react, you seemed...like you were stimulated. You rushed over, grabbed the walkie-talkie, and pulled out the battery first, and then I still couldn’t get over my anger, and finally broke the walkie-talkie.”
No. 13 seemed to be frightened by Jiang Cheng's performance. His voice was very low when he said these words. He was probably worried about irritating Jiang Cheng again. After all, the other party's performance could no longer be described as weird.
"Doctor, have you been too nervous recently?" Fatty comforted, "I know you are worried about Boss Lin's safety, but things have to be done step by step. Don't...don't be too..."
Jiang Cheng was exhausted mentally and physically by the successive incidents. What was even more frightening was that he couldn't calm down at all now. He knew that he was in the game at this moment, but he didn't know what method the other party used.
He forced himself to calm down, because no matter how elaborate the deception was, there would always be flaws.
As long as you find a flaw, you can break the situation.
He pushed aside the rough man who was blocking him, squatted on the ground, and began to rummage around. Near a large rock was the remains of a walkie-talkie, as well as flying debris. He wanted to confirm whether the problem was with him or the people around him. problem.
Just now, there was an inconspicuous but obvious difference in the descriptions of both of them. The things about the picture scroll and Jile Tower were unclear and unclear, but the walkie-talkie did exist in reality, and according to Luo Yun Shan and others said that there was a battery in the walkie-talkie and he had taken it out, but he was certain that he never saw the battery.
If the battery can be found next to the stone, it will prove that Luo Yunshan and others are not lying and that there is something wrong with their mental state. On the contrary, the problem lies with Luo Yunshan and others.
Either they are fake, or they have also entered an illusion, and it is an illusion deeper than themselves. Although Jiang Cheng does not think that there is an illusion that can drag everyone in, and the scope is as large as an entire mountain, especially It can confuse top players like Wu and No. 2.
But not believing it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The Night Watch has been planning for so long, so it must have some great trump cards.
After a moment, Jiang Cheng, who was squatting on the ground, trembled. He stared at a battery in his hand, and his mind wandered again. Yes, he found it, he found a battery.
At this moment, Luo Yunshan seemed to have seen something. He walked towards Jiangcheng alone and said shockingly, "You are in a very wrong state. I suspect that your door is affecting you. Something is passing through your door." The guy is controlling you indirectly."
No. 2 also nodded, looked at Jiang Cheng, and said in a calm tone: "Yes, I thought so too. The other party's target that night was originally you, but something went wrong along the way and only took Wu away. , because of the contractual relationship between you and Wu, the other party is using Wu to indirectly influence you."
Hearing this, No. 13 was also worried, "I know that guy Wu, he is very powerful, Zero, I'm afraid we can't help you with anything this time, you...you must be careful yourself, this is the inner demon."
"There will only be more and more things like this in the future. You have to be careful and exercise restraint. I hope... I hope Wu will not take the initiative to come to us." Speaking of Wu, No. 13's unhealthy face became paler. After all, everyone knows that with their current lineup, they simply cannot stop Wu.
Thinking of this brother who has always been by his side, Jiang Cheng felt powerless. Something was obviously wrong with Wu in the video, and he almost pushed him away, but he was more willing to believe that it was Wu's last remaining consciousness that protected him. This prevented the other party from succeeding, but Wu was taken away.
He rubbed his temples vigorously. After a few seconds, Jiang Cheng's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened. Then he raised his arms and kept sniffing with his nose as if he had discovered something.
Soon, Jiang Cheng seemed to have discovered a new world. He called Fatty and others over, stretched out his arms to show them, and said excitedly: "You...smell it!"
When Luo Yunshan No. 2 and others saw Jiang Cheng's appearance, they didn't dare to approach him for the first time. Only the fat man immediately walked up and lowered his head to smell as Jiang Cheng said. After a few seconds, the fat man suddenly raised his head, not only excited. He was still frightened, and Tong Kong shook violently, "How...how could this happen? It's the smell of alcohol. Doctor, you actually smell of alcohol! It smells so strong!"
At this time, other people gathered around, and everyone was surprised to find that Jiang Cheng's body was actually stained with a strong smell of alcohol, and there was even some aroma, a very special aroma, which seemed to be the scent of a woman's sachet.
Putting all these together, Jiang Cheng boldly speculated that the Bliss Building he saw was not an illusion, but a reality, but...only he could see it, just like the bus, only with the Only those who are branded will be allowed to board that car.
brand……
Nothing is that brand!
Because Wu was inside the building at the moment, he could see the building briefly!
Then everything makes sense.
After hearing Jiang Cheng's analysis, although the remaining people were shocked, they all agreed with Jiang Cheng's view. Luo Yunshan had the best knowledge. He analyzed that this possibility was indeed possible, and this also explained why everyone was together. , but only Jiang Cheng often falls into illusions.
It was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so everyone evacuated quickly. In order to protect Jiang Cheng, Fatty asked him to walk in the middle this time, while he, No. 2 Luo Yunshan and others surrounded him.
After walking for an unknown distance, I finally walked out of the forest. What was a little reassuring was that it was not that weird mountain village outside at this moment, and there was also a little light on the horizon.
Choosing a location with a good view, everyone temporarily stopped to rest. Luo Yunshan asked the man wearing the headset if the communication with the outside of the mountain had been restored. The man shook his head in embarrassment.
In this way, everyone waited until it was completely bright before everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only those who have experienced a long hopeless night know how precious dawn and sunshine are.
On the 13th, he refused to give up and said that he wanted to take a look around the mountain village again. After what happened last night, he might be able to find some clues, but he was directly rejected by Luo Yunshan. Luo Yunshan asked everyone to set off immediately and go down the mountain. .
"What will happen to the remaining people when we go down the mountain now?" No. 13 said with a look of reluctance on his face.
Luo Yunshan is still insisting, and there is no room for change in his attitude. "We must leave now. The outside of the mountain does not know our situation now. Our top priority is to pass the news out. Otherwise, if another team enters the mountain, the loss will be huge." Estimate.”
"We can't save people now. We need to go back and think about it in the long term. And have you ever thought about what Commissioner Lin and the others will do once we fall in? Who else has the ability to rescue them? They really have no way out. ."
Luo Yunshan's decision is well-founded. Although it seems unreasonable, it is the best choice at the moment.
The good news is that although there was a problem with the communication equipment and could not be used, the compass returned to normal. After a long journey, they finally found a road that had been marked. They walked along the road and at noon, a group of people People walked out of the mountain and returned to the foot of the mountain not far from the starting point.
At this time, there were already people waiting at the foot of the mountain. After seeing their figures, they immediately came up to meet them. Luo Yunshan was picked up by a car alone. It was obvious that the big shots above wanted to find out the details from him. After all, this matter It's too involved, and those frozen disciples whose whereabouts are unknown are just time bombs.
In the evening, while waiting anxiously, Luo Yunshan came back, and he brought back a piece of news that Jiang Cheng was very interested in, "We found the person you asked me to find."
Judging from Luo Yunshan's tone and eyes, Jiang Cheng suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart. Before entering the mountain, he had asked Luo Yunshan to find the whereabouts of Li Bai Yao and Shunyu.
Sure enough, Luo Yunshan opened his briefcase, took out a mobile phone from it, clicked on the screen a few times, and handed the phone to Jiang Cheng. The moment they saw the screen, both Jiang Cheng and Fatty's eyes dimmed.
The picture is very simple. It is a man lying on a white bed. The background is relatively dull, but it can be felt that it is in an older house. The man has his eyes closed. He is Yao, Shun, and Yu.
"he died?"
The fat man's lips were trembling. Although he had thought this before, he still hoped that nothing would happen to Yao Shunyu. After all, they were friends.
Luo Yunshan nodded businesslikely, "Well, he is dead. His body was found in a rental house. This man's whereabouts are very strange. We traced his recent movements and found that he always chooses some very remote places. Since he had no place to live and was not used to paying electronically, we found a lot of cash in the bag he carried with him, enough to pay for him to live in a better place."
"He seems to be avoiding someone on purpose." Luo Yunshan finally said.
Jiang Cheng stared at the screen, hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Where did you find the body? I mean the city."
"Luojiang City."
Jiang Cheng and Fatty frowned. It was obvious that they had never heard of this place. Luo Yunshan explained: "This is a county-level city. It is not well-known. It is normal for you not to know that it is thousands of kilometers away from here."
"What I want to say is another thing. Regarding the cause of death of this man, we did not find any wounds on his body, and there were no signs of taking drugs. He passed away peacefully, as if...as if he had a sweet dream. ."
