Being in darkness, there is no perception.
When I regained my vision from the complete darkness that lasted for a minute, I looked closely and saw that the surrounding environment was not as bright as I imagined, but instead it was a dark night.
night?
After discovering this, except for the three newcomers in the team who were still shrinking and staring in fear, the senior members immediately observed their surroundings.
As far as the eye can see, although the scene cannot be seen very far due to the darkness, the nearby houses and the lights from the windows clearly tell everyone the answer, that is, this is a small town.
Not only that, as the observation continued, everyone gradually realized that the environment here was similar to what they saw in the video preview. If nothing unexpected happened...
The answer is self-evident.
With the help of the surrounding lights and a general overview of the environment, Yao Fujiang was the first to come to the conclusion: "I think this is the Senyun town mentioned in the mission information, right? A mountain town surrounded by mountains, but... I didn't expect it. It will be night time.”
After Yao Fujiang said this, because he felt the same way, Peng Hu, who was carrying He Fei on his back, also nodded in agreement after looking around: "Well, it should be more or less the same. You can see it through the shadows of the mountains in the distance. The street we are currently on is very similar to the street in the video, so it seems that it should be the Senyun Town."
The conversation was like this, and the facts were just as Peng and Yao described. As soon as they got off the train, the executors appeared directly inside the town. The environment was indeed the remote small town surrounded by mountains in the video. town.
Sure enough, after receiving accurate information and seeing themselves in a small town, the next moment, most people at the scene turned their eyes reflexively, subconsciously looking at Peng Hu's back and staring at He Fei, and then...
After seeing the unconscious appearance of the other party clearly, everyone involuntarily looked confused and fell into silence, not knowing what to do for a while.
The reason why these people reacted like this is actually easy to understand. To put it bluntly, it is inertia. It is due to the inertia developed over a long period of time. After all, He Fei is the captain, the commander and the backbone of the entire team. In the past, everyone has always followed the rules when performing supernatural missions. The strategic ideas constructed by He Fei are in action, and many things are also directed by He Fei. Now entering the mission and being in a small town, although they know that the other party is unconscious, due to inertia, everyone still instinctively waits for the young man, waiting for the captain to make up his mind and then inform everyone What to do next.
pity……
Staring at He Fei who was alive but unconscious in front of him, the senior man suddenly felt confused and didn't know what to do.
Noticing that everyone looked confused and silent for a few seconds, Cheng Ying stepped out from the crowd, turned around and said to the executors: "Since the mission is limited to 7 days, according to past experience, this supernatural mission is a mid-term mission, and mid-term missions are often dangerous. It will increase gradually, and the mission has just begun. I think even if there are locusts, it is impossible for them to attack us so soon. In that case, I think we should find a place to live first, and then discuss what to do next."
Seeing Cheng Ying coming forward, most of the people were stunned. Fortunately, there were no idiots at the scene, and what the other party said was indeed reasonable. After saying this, everyone nodded.
The rest of the matter was simple. Seeing that the executors agreed, Cheng Ying immediately took the lead and rushed along the street with everyone. The intention was extremely obvious. Since this is a small town, there must be many residents in the town. Just from the surrounding people, It can be seen from the lights shining through the houses that they, the executors, are short of everything but money. As long as they have enough money, I believe it will be easy to find a private residence where they can stay.
Facing the moonlight high in the sky, with the help of street lamps, he was walking. I don't know if he suddenly thought of something. After patting his head, Peng Hu went straight to Cheng Ying and asked, "By the way, there are 10 of us here. I'm afraid we can't live in a private house." Bar?"
Unexpectedly, the bald man was still paying attention to the smallest details at this time. As expected, Cheng Ying was too lazy to answer, leaving Peng Hu puzzled. Fortunately, Chen Xiaoyao stepped forward in time to clear up the worries. He grinned at Peng Hu as he walked. He joked: "Hey, Brother Peng, I find that you are really awesome. Sometimes you think a lot, but why do you think of useless things? The problem you just had is actually easy to solve. Let me ask you, if you are a poor farmer, how can you think of something useless? Suddenly, some strangers came outside Tianmen and asked to rent your house for a few days for tens of thousands of yuan. So...are you willing to accept the money and go out to live with your neighbors for a few days? Or would you just refuse the other party's request?"
Chen Xiaoyao's words immediately attracted Yao Fujiang's unanimous agreement. After all, Chen Xiaoyao and Zhao Ping had done this before during their previous trip to Yinshan. This trick was very effective. There are really not many people in the world who can resist the temptation when money leads the way.
After listening to Chen Xiaoyao's explanation, Peng Hu smiled awkwardly at Cheng Ying as if he suddenly understood. No wonder the other party ignored him. It turned out that his worries were meaningless. As for Chen Xiaoyao, after feeling proud, he turned around and glanced at Zhao Ping behind him secretly. , the bespectacled man did not look around while walking like the others, but followed the team silently with an expression on his face, seemingly thinking about something, and Qian Xueling was indeed close to Zhao Ping as expected. As he walked, the woman's eyes were alert, While looking around, he grabbed Zhao Ping's arm, and his field of vision continued to extend. Following the two figures were three newcomers. Sure enough, the newcomers performed as expected. Although they were following the team, there was a unique oppressive atmosphere in the mission world. Still surrounded by them all the time, and the first supernatural mission, which made several people uneasy, Fang Hai and Gao Jikun all followed the team with panic expressions, but the woman named Yue Xiao made him look at him with admiration. He did not deny that women also She was slightly nervous, but she didn't show obvious fear like Gao Jikun and the other two.
The above is the current status of the team. After secretly observing everyone, Chen Xiaoyao smiled and whispered to himself: "Hehe, interesting."
"What? Chen Xiaoyao, what are you talking about? What's interesting?"
I originally thought that the whisper belonged to me, but unexpectedly, the young Taoist priest's whisper was heard by Yao Fujiang, who had been walking beside him. In confusion, his curiosity immediately aroused, and he asked without hesitation, which played into Chen Xiaoyao's plan.
Since he felt a little uncomfortable after being silent for a long time, how could Taoist Chen, who had long wanted to talk nonsense, keep silent when he heard the other party's question? He raised his eyebrows, grinned, and glanced to the left and right. Seeing that the few people nearby were not paying attention to him, Taoist Chen made a strange little move and came slightly closer. As he walked, he put his arms around Yao Fujiang's shoulders, and finally put his mouth to his. Something was whispered in his ear, something that made the flat-headed young man suddenly puzzled:
"Brother Fu Jiang, let me give you a suggestion now, that is, you'd better not be alone in this mission, and don't stay with other people. There are only two people you can follow. Either follow Brother Peng closely or try your best. Stay with Cheng Ying."
"Um?"
Yao Fujiang raised his head blankly, staring at the other person with a puzzled face. Looking at the smiling face, he was about to ask questions. Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaoyao stopped explaining, shrugged, retracted his arms, and continued walking as if nothing was wrong. .
Let's not talk about what Chen Yao and Chen Yao think at the moment. At this moment, if someone observes carefully or observes someone, they will find that Cheng Ying, who is currently walking at the front of the team, has gradually complicated and changing expressions. Unknowingly, her expression is walking like this. In the process, he became more and more gloomy, his brows furrowed.
………
The waning moon hung high in the sky, and the environment was extremely silent. Except for a series of footsteps coming from far and near on the street, the whole town seemed to be asleep, sleeping in this seemingly ordinary wilderness.
At night, in the street, a group of people walked at a constant speed with the help of the lights of the houses on both sides. Not to mention, if they didn't want to go shopping, they found out that this small mountain town was really as large as the video showed. Everyone left. She didn't leave the main street of the town for a long time. Cheng Ying estimated that the entire town should cover an area of one kilometer. Although it was much smaller than a regular town, it was still quite a big deal to have such a small town among these mountains. Remarkable.
The movement is endless and the search is endless.
Soon, under the leadership of Cheng Ying, the group finally stopped walking, stopped searching, and stopped outside a large brick house. There was no doubt that, as described above, everyone had been searching. Along the way, Cheng Ying Sakura also kept looking for a private house that could accommodate the entire team, and her hard work paid off. After searching for a long time, she actually found a private house that was larger than other houses.
As for this rather impressive house, its owner is either a village cadre or a wealthy person in the village.
Of course, it doesn’t matter who the homeowner is. What’s important is that after searching for a long time, only this house seemed to be able to accommodate many people. He stopped in front of the door and looked at it for a moment. Without any signal from others, Yao Fujiang volunteered and strode forward. He raised his hand to knock on the door.
However...
"Wait a moment!"
For some reason, just when Yao Fujiang was about to put his hand on the door and make a noise, Cheng Ying suddenly stopped him from behind. In addition to causing the young man to turn back in confusion, he also attracted puzzled looks from other executioners. Everyone looked at him. Pursing her lips, Cheng Ying said: "Have you noticed... that this town is too quiet?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. It didn't take a moment for some people to understand the meaning of his words. At the same time, a sense of uneasiness quietly came over at this moment.
Yes, Cheng Ying's meaning is very obvious, that is, if everyone could only roughly observe the surroundings through their eyes more than ten minutes ago when they first appeared in the town, then, as they walked along and observed more deeply, Cheng Ying, who has always been very perceptive, gradually discovered something. She discovered something. She discovered something strange about the town, that is, it was quiet. The whole town was too quiet!
Although it can be explained by the fact that the town is less noisy than during the day because it comes at night, except for the private houses with lights on both sides of the street, which give people the feeling that there are people inside, everything else on the road is too quiet. Yes, This is a small town in the mountains. Even if the residents go to bed early at night, every household will always feed their livestock, right? There should be some barking of dogs and crowing of roosters, right? After all, this is not a big city where pets are prohibited, but a rural village that is both backward and remote. This is true, but what is the reality? The fact is...
Along the way, except for their group of enforcers, not only were there not a single person in sight on the entire street, there was not even a sound of an animal chirping!
