Yes, in fact, Cheng Ying was just scaring He Fei and two people just now, with the purpose of getting them to leave. The reason is very simple...
Because the conversation that follows is not suitable for people like He Fei or Yao Fujiang to hear!
Cheng Ying understood this, Zhao Ping knew it, and Chen Xiaoyao also gradually became suspicious after observing the scene just now.
Getting back to the topic, when the obstructionist was so frightened by Cheng Ying's threats that he crawled away, the above three people were the only ones left in the living room, and the scene fell into silence again. In the silence, the three people glanced at each other. In the end, the silence was broken by Zhao Ping first.
Adjusting his glasses and adjusting the bridge of his nose, the man said something strange and said something strange in a calm tone to the suspicious-looking Chen Xiaoyao: "Since even you yourself think that the Maoshan Technique recorded in the book in your hand is not complete, then, If, I mean if, if you still have a chance to obtain another Maoshan technique, how will you react?"
As soon as Zhao Ping's words came out, Chen Xiaoyao felt frightened!
In addition to being shocked, his originally suspicious face also changed slightly at this moment. However, the change was a change, but in fact it did not last long. After about seven or eight seconds of silence, the young man narrowed his eyes and began to scan the two people opposite him, and finally He asked the two of them in a thoughtful tone: "Could it be that you two discovered that thing?"
………
The ninth day of the mission rest period, 16:05 pm.
Car No. 3, He Fei's room.
"...The above are the general rules of Cursed Space and Hell Train. You still need to understand the specific details. Do you two have anything else to ask?"
In the living room, as the above words ended, He Fei had finished all the duties of the captain, that is, the explanation work. After saying this, he glanced at Peng Hu, who was sitting next to him on the left with his legs crossed and smoking, and then , the young man turned his head and glanced at Cheng Ying with surprise, who was sitting on the right side with his eyes closed to rest.
Putting aside the fact that Cheng Ying had closed her eyes to rest her mind the whole time, Peng Hu understood instantly when he caught the young man's gaze. He nodded subconsciously, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray of the coffee table, and then used it towards the other two people sitting opposite. He asked in a tentative tone: "How is it? The captain has just spoken in great detail. Do you two understand?"
At this moment, if you follow the gazes of He Fei and Peng Hu to the opposite side, you will find that at this moment, two people are sitting on the sofa opposite, with two unfamiliar faces.
Looking closely, he saw that both of them were men. One of them looked to be about thirty-five or six years old. He was wearing a gray suit. He was of medium height and had an average appearance. His face had a faint hint of fatigue. It was true that he looked tired. Sorry, but the man's eyes always remained clear, with a cold light flashing through them from time to time. At first glance, it actually made people shudder!
If the man in the gray suit generally gives off a shrewd and cold feeling, then the other person sitting next to him is of a completely different type.
He was a tall, muscular man with a big waist and a round waist. His image was very different from that of a man in a suit. At first glance, he looked very similar to Peng Hu's style. As far as he could see, he was tall and had a burly torso. He wore a pair of trousers on his lower body and a waistband. He was wearing a dagger, and he was bare-chested with nothing on. His strong muscles were so oppressive that he even faintly surpassed Peng Hu. Not only that, his bare chest also had a tattoo of a ferocious unicorn that spanned half of his body. With short hair and a face full of flesh, the first impression he gives to others is extremely oppressive. Let alone anything else, anyone who sees this person at first glance will never regard him as a good person.
At this moment, the burly man with short hair was sitting side by side with the man in the suit, his eyes scanning back and forth on the faces of He Fei, Peng Hu and Cheng Ying just like the man in the suit.
Yes, the man in the gray suit and the burly man with the short hair are the newcomers boarding the train this time. They are the two newcomers who just boarded the hell train an hour ago. The person in charge of greeting is still Peng Hu. There is no denying that the two of them are not like good stubble. There is no denying that Peng Hu was also on guard at the beginning, but...
What surprised the bald man was that as the car stopped and he stepped off the train, and as the two stood still and looked at each other, he didn't expect that he had just greeted the two people on the opposite platform to get on the train, and the two whispered a few words and then took it seriously. Get in the car without hesitation.
As mentioned above, the decisiveness of the two people to get on the bus really surprised Peng Hu, who had long been accustomed to the newcomers' ink marks. Question marks appeared on his head. Of course, he was surprised. It was good to be honest and obedient and take the initiative to get on the bus. In addition, after boarding the bus, The reaction of the two people also made other executioners quite surprised. Yes, although one of the two looked calm and the other simply looked fierce and stay away from strangers, they both remained silent since they boarded the car. As expected, he was as arrogant and provocative as ever, and did not show any arrogance. There was not even the initial panic that a newcomer should have when boarding the train. Apart from briefly introducing themselves when meeting everyone, the two of them spent the rest of the time observing and sizing up. , observing the crowd and the internal environment of the train, after introducing themselves, the man in the gray suit called himself Tang Zhiyuan, and the shirtless man with short hair was named Xu Zhen. They were just names. As for their occupation, age, etc., neither of them said anything, since they didn't want to say anything. Then others can't force it, but...
As the team leader, when He Fei walked out of the room and then greeted the two of them to his room to listen to his explanation as usual, leaving aside what others were doing, Cheng Ying in the crowd inadvertently frowned.
This is the first time a professional killer frowns when facing a newcomer, and it is also the first time he pays attention to a newcomer after observing him. .
Yes, everyone knows that girls never care about newcomers. In the past, their attitude towards newcomers on the train was mostly ignored. Unexpectedly, this time there has been a huge change.
After frowning, the girl made some move. She winked at Peng Hu first, and then the two of them walked into He Fei's room together with the two newcomers!
The team has had a non-public rule for a long time, that is, once the train arrives and a newcomer appears to be threatening, for the sake of safety, whenever such a newcomer enters the captain's room for the first time, Peng Hu will enter with the newcomer. The purpose is obvious. It is nothing more than to protect the safety of the captain, and this default rule has continued from Ye Wei's era to this day. However, this time, what surprised all the executors, including He Fei...
Cheng Ying followed.
There is no denying that the newcomers who boarded the train this time were obviously threatening, but even so, Peng Hu's company was enough. However, what I never expected was that this time Cheng Ying also took the initiative to follow and enter, just like that with Peng Hu. Hu walked into He Fei's room with the two newcomers!
First of all, you must understand that aside from some uncertain factors, at least in the minds of most team members, Cheng Ying is the strongest force in the team, and the girl's aloof character has never paid attention to newcomers. Even if there were threatening newcomers in the past, they would often It was Peng Hu who followed the newcomer into the room and acted as the captain's security guard by default. Unexpectedly, besides Peng Hu, Cheng Ying also chose to accompany the newcomer this time, following the newcomer into the room and taking the initiative to serve as the captain's guard.
Everyone was surprised when they saw this scene. After the door was closed, they gathered in the corridor to discuss. During this period, no one returned to the room. Everyone was waiting in the corridor together. This was the first time that this happened.
………
Let's get back to the topic, leaving everyone outside the door aside. In the living room, following the captain's duties, when He Fei explained in detail the matters related to the cursed space to Tang Zhiyuan, a man in a suit, and Xu Zhen, a man with short hair, their expressions suddenly changed, and they looked shocked. At the same time, his originally calm expression also showed panic for the first time, which was in line with the reaction a newcomer should have. Even so, the shock and panic did not last long, and it returned to normal within a moment. Seeing this, He Fei was surprised, and Peng Hudun I'm surprised, I really didn't expect that the two guys in front of me would have such good mental qualities? You must know that this is a cursed space. It is full of dangers, full of death, and narrow escapes. It is also linked to supernatural missions involving the existence of scorpions. Normally, newcomers tremble and fear after learning the truth. Some people with poor psychological quality may even go crazy and collapse. How can this be? material……
what happened?
Why are the two psychological qualities so strong?
Who is this person named Tang Zhiyuan?
Who is that person named Xu Zhen?
Through observation, seeing the other party's reaction, the college student was temporarily confused. .
actually……
Even though the young man observed carefully, there was still one detail that He Fei and even Peng Hu did not notice. That was, after He Fei explained the specific matter, the short-haired man opposite Xu Zhen made a slight movement.
As soon as the young man finished speaking, the short-haired man began to move after a trace of panic flashed on his face. His right leg instinctively exerted force, and the body sitting on the sofa also slowly leaned forward a few centimeters at that moment.
This is a precursor to the upcoming action, and even more so, a precursor to the upcoming action!
But at this moment, when the short-haired man was shaking his muscles and was about to make a move, Tang Zhiyuan's right shoulder also inadvertently touched Xu Zhen beside him. Due to the subtle movement, it did not cause any reaction from He Fei and Peng Hu on the opposite side. Pay attention, as a result, for some reason, Xu Zhen, who was still leaning forward as if he wanted to move after being touched like this by the man in the suit, immediately gave up and then slowly returned to his previous sitting position. The whole process was extremely secretive, and there was no trace of it from beginning to end. Be noticed by others.
At least they were not noticed by He and Peng.
Time returns to 5 seconds ago.
When the man in the suit lightly touched his shoulder, when Liu Zhen chose to give up, and his slightly forward body returned to the leaning position, opposite, Cheng Ying, who was sitting on the right side of He Fei and had been closing her eyes to rest, also inadvertently returned to her original state. , the girl’s back, which had been a few centimeters away from the back of the sofa at some point, also leaned back again.
Next came He Fei's inquiry, and finally Peng Hu's tentative inquiry full of vigilance after receiving the young man's signal:
"How's it going? The captain just said it in great detail. Do you two understand it?"
The answer given was silence, total silence.
Eyes scanned the scene, and both parties looked at each other.
It wasn't until half a minute later that Tang Zhiyuan, who had been listening silently on the opposite side, finally broke the silence. Then he spoke first under the gazes of He and Peng, staring at He Fei and said: "Captain, these facts you said are too unbelievable, including What about survival points, tickets to hell, supernatural missions, and so on? Do you really think anyone will believe you if you say all of the above?"
As soon as Tang Zhiyuan said this, He Fei neither corrected nor explained. Instead, he nodded with deep understanding and shrugged his shoulders. Then he narrowed his eyes slightly and answered in a slightly weird tone while staring at Tang Zhiyuan. : "What you just said is common sense. After all, this kind of place has broken human cognition. It is difficult for anyone else to believe it, let alone you. Even I couldn't believe it when I first came here. Be skeptical. In fact, these are not important, or it is not important whether others believe it or not. What is important is... do you believe it or not?"
"We believe it."
Unexpectedly, as soon as He Fei finished speaking, Tang Zhiyuan answered categorically in the affirmative. After saying this, he paused and then explained to the young man: "After all, there is a saying that is good, logical lies will often make most people confused." Believe it, and the extremely absurd truth will be regarded as nonsense by others. I am not the kind of person who blindly follows the crowd, so when faced with your seemingly absurd remarks, I naturally choose to believe it."
"Hahaha, okay! Mr. Tang is really not simple. The above paragraph is indeed rich in philosophy. Since you choose to believe it, then I have said everything that needs to be said before. Mr. Tang and Mr. Xu should both know what to do in the future. Okay, Brother Peng, take you two to choose a room outside and let you two have a good rest."
"Captain, you're welcome. Just call us by our real names. In that case, we won't disturb the captain anymore. Let's take our leave."
The brief conversation passed quickly, and within a moment, Peng Hu and Tang Zhiyuan opened the door and walked out of the room.
Boom!
The door was closed and the couple left, leaving He Fei and Cheng Ying alone in the room.
Watching the door close, confirming that the other party has left, on the sofa, somehow, He Fei, who had been calm during the conversation earlier, changed his expression and appearance in an instant, frowned for an instant, and then turned his head to look to the side. , and even asked Cheng Ying, who had closed her eyes and remained silent the entire time, like an old monk in meditation: "What's going on? Why did you come in this time? Isn't Brother Peng alone not enough? Could it be that those two people made you very happy?" Do you care? In my personal impression, it seems that you have never paid attention to newcomers?"
His expression was suspicious and his tone was full of doubts.
In fact, He Fei had noticed something strange since he saw Tang Zhiyuan and the two of them getting together. In addition to the other party's series of reactions, combined with the above, in just a few moments, he further realized that the two of them were very different from the previous newcomers. After realizing this, the young man was naturally He was wary, but he still didn't expect that Cheng Ying, who had always been indifferent to newcomers, would be more wary and cautious about Tang Zhiyuan and the two of them. Otherwise, how could this aloof girl accompany the newcomer to her room for the first time?
There is no doubt that Cheng Ying is clearly protecting He Fei's safety!
Why?
What are the backgrounds of the two newcomers? Cheng Ying actually thought that even Peng Hu couldn't protect her, so she chose to follow him in person! ?
