The bald man nodded his head as if he had some realization, and was about to give approval. However, for some reason, the man with glasses who had been expressionless just now suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, revealing a strange and slightly playful smile, and then added casually. Said: "Of course, if there are more people in the team when performing supernatural tasks, it may not be without any benefit."
"Huh? What do you mean by that?"
Boom, boom.
It was too late, but soon, just when the bald man looked suspicious and tried to get to the bottom of the problem, suddenly, the car body vibrated and the roar increased, and with this slight vibration, for a while, the two people in Car No. 4 also Clearly aware of the abnormality at the scene, there is no doubt that the trembling not only means that the train has begun to slow down, but also means that the train is about to stop! .
Sure enough, as expected, Peng Hu noticed the change in the car body and did not bother to ask the reason. He glanced at his watch again and looked down, and saw that the time had already entered 14:57, which means that it only takes 3 minutes. , the hell train will temporarily stop at an unknown platform and stall.
Bah, bah bah bah.
Three minutes passed by in a blink of an eye. In just a few moments, I listened to the friction of the rails. The speed of the train was getting slower and slower. The hour hand just pointed to 15 o'clock. The train that had slowed down completely stopped at this moment and stopped in a dark environment. Unknown platform, the whole process is accurate every second.
Bah!
It was no different from before. As soon as the car stopped, the door opened automatically. Seeing this, there was no need to mention it. Under the leadership of Peng Hu, the two of them got off the train. .
Stepping on the ground through the car door, looking around, it was pitch black. Even with the help of car lights, the overall environment was still dim, and the field of vision could only barely spot the platform under the light of the car lights and barely confirm the location. The description is true, but for now None of the above is the point, the point is...
As he extended his gaze and stared intently, he saw human figures a hundred meters away. Several figures were swaying on the platform. There was no doubt that they must be newcomers boarding the train. As for the number of people, it was true that they were far away and the light was dim. In fact, they were already used to it. In the darkness, Peng Hu and Zhao Ping could still see the specific number, and they were sure that the other party's number was 4, but...
But what was happening on the platform really surprised the two of them.
I don’t know why, but two of the four people currently on the platform were wrestling with each other!
In addition to attacking and wrestling with each other, the two sides also uttered obscene words from time to time:
"Cao Nima! Give me back my wallet and cell phone!"
"When did I steal your stuff? Get out! If you dare to pester me, I won't be polite!".
"Pretend, keep pretending! It's just you and no one else! I noticed you were following me long before I entered the station. Don't talk nonsense. If you don't pay me back, then I will be serious!"
"Fuck! Who is following you? You allow me to take the subway just because you allow me to take the subway? I, Li Tianheng, swear to God, if I steal your things, I will be hit by a car and die!"
"Screw you uncle, I swear, if the police investigation works, we won't have to solve the case!"
………
Is the fight good to watch?
The answer is of course it looks good. If nothing else, there are many fights in reality. Many grumpy old men have gotten into fights over trivial matters and staged duels. Whenever a duel takes place, there are always people around, no matter when and where. There will be an audience, a group of onlookers who may be late but will never be absent.
By chance, Peng Hu and Zhao Ping were lucky enough to be among the onlookers.
In the dim platform, two men are currently performing a martial arts show. If you look carefully, you can see a well-dressed middle-aged man and another young man scolding each other and physically scuffling. You can clearly hear the words. The young man seemed to be angry because he was asking for something to no avail. As for the other young man who was fighting with him, who called himself Li Tianheng, he was wearing a light gray coat and had a spiky hair. Although his overall appearance was ordinary, he was also the same. Because he refused to return the things, he was forced to fight with the middle-aged man.
As seen at first, there are more than two people on the platform. In fact, there are two other people beside them, a man and a woman. The man is a tall man with short hair and sunglasses wearing a black tunic suit. She looks to be in her late twenties or early thirties, and overall gives off a strong social atmosphere. The woman is ordinary and has no bright spots. She is wearing a pink jacket with a knee-length skirt, and a pair of black high heels underneath. She is young. Approximately in her early twenties, if the above is just for the attire, then when looking at her height, the result is a bit regrettable. Yes, if you look carefully, you will find that the young woman is shorter, barely reaching 1.6 meters in height at most. .
Of course, height or clothing are no longer the point at this stage. The point is that the man in sunglasses and the short woman were the first to notice the abnormality. When a subway train came not far away, whether it was the short woman who tried to start a fight earlier or the short woman who tried to start a fight earlier. It was the man in sunglasses who had been watching with nothing. The two of them all changed their sights and looked at the train. As the train stopped, the two people got off the train. When they found that one of them was a bald man with a burly figure and a fierce appearance, the short woman's face appeared. Fearful, the man in sunglasses also subconsciously increased his vigilance.
Only the two newcomers, who had been immersed in the fight, ignored the scene and everything else. Not only did they ignore the scene, but the fight became more and more intense because of their equal strength, and the battle suddenly fell into a stalemate!
There is no doubt that fighting is about hard power. It is the most basic force confrontation between people. It is also a fight. If the strength gap between the two sides is large, then the fight will not be exciting. That is to say, the two sides fighting Only when the strength is equal can it be called a fight in the true sense. As long as the strength is equal, even if the novices peck each other, it can still bring about an exciting battle that is no less exciting than a duel between masters. .
Maybe today I met my opponent in chess, whether it was a middle-aged man or a young man. During the fight, neither side could do anything to the other. However, there is a saying that meeting an opponent does not mean that the game will always be equal. In many cases, time will change everything, and as time delays, , some small factors that could be ignored at first have gradually become the most important factors in controlling the battle situation, such as speed, skills, and the natural physical advantages due to youth.
Although on the surface the two men were fighting fiercely and it seemed that they were equally matched, but as time passed, the situation of the battle changed. With a loud cry, the middle-aged man who wanted to kick the opponent's abdomen seemed to be slow in his attack due to lack of physical strength. Half a beat later, unexpectedly, this seemingly short-term slowdown turned out to be the key factor that directly led to his defeat. In a blink of an eye, seeing that the opponent was slow to lift his feet, the young man who was originally unable to avoid being grabbed by the collar by the middle-aged man actually seized the opportunity to take the lead. He started, seized this golden opportunity, and decisively raised his right leg in front of the opponent, then kicked him hard, hitting the opponent's lower abdomen!
bump!
“Fuck you Male Gobi!”
"oops!"
Sure enough, due to the lack of physical fitness of the middle-aged man due to the passage of the war, the young man saw the opportunity to fight back. As soon as he was hit in the lower abdomen, the middle-aged man screamed and fell on his back, and the whole person lost his fighting ability. As for the young man who called himself Li Tianheng …
This man was a man of martial ethics. Although he succeeded in winning with one blow, he did not pursue the victory to expand the results. Instead, he unexpectedly made the right choice and did not continue to attack the opponent. It was not until the middle-aged man struggled to get up with his hands on his belly that the young man faced Lu shrugged helplessly and sighed: "I told you that I didn't steal your mobile phone wallet, why don't you believe it?"
Hearing that the other party still refused to admit it, the middle-aged man who was originally grinning because of the severe injury was filled with anger. Of course, anger was anger. Considering that he was no longer the opponent's opponent, the middle-aged man had no choice but to suppress his anger and retort with a glare: "What! How shameless are you, a thief? I've seen it with my own eyes..."
"It's all him, shut up!"
The refutation was interrupted instantly, the argument was put to rest on the spot, and ended completely with a rough yell.
As mentioned above, just when the fight between the two was over and they were about to engage in the next round of verbal duel, before the middle-aged man could finish his words, a loud roar from the opposite side was heard like thunder and penetrated the eardrums around him, except for the shock. In addition to the tremors of several people present, the middle-aged man even swallowed back the second half of the sentence he was about to speak. Similarly, precisely because of the loud roar, the voice instantly attracted the attention of everyone on the platform. For a moment, All four eyes looked towards the opposite side, towards the train, and towards the bald man a hundred meters away with a fierce look on his face.
Yes, the owner of the roar was Peng Hu. When he saw someone fighting on the platform, he was just as happy as Zhao Ping at first to see everyone curious and watching. But who would have thought that those two guys would never stop fighting. Unexpectedly, after the fight, the two People still plan to continue to curse, and it is not such a waste of time. You must know that the time left for newcomers to board the train is not much, and it is only a short 15 minutes. If the other party is allowed to continue to delay, the consequences will be disastrous. So at the critical moment, Peng Hu roared, which attracted the attention of the four newcomers who didn't know whether to live or die.
Back to the topic, with his fierce appearance, he saw that the other people were looking at him with fearful eyes as expected. The bald man didn't talk nonsense. He first showed his habitual grin, and then he spoke carelessly and took the lead under the nervous gazes of the newcomers. : "As expected, I guess you guys were swept in here by a mysterious hurricane, right?"
As soon as this statement came out, the four people on the platform were collectively shocked. The reason was simple, because the bald man guessed it right, or the reason why they were here was precisely because they were blown here by an irresistible violent hurricane, and even more The strangest thing is that since they entered this dark waiting hall, they can never get out again!
The structure of the entire hall was closed, and there was only darkness and the bleak silence of the entire hall.
Witnessing the dim environment and feeling the strange atmosphere, there is no denying that several people initially searched for exits and contacted each other on mobile phones. Unfortunately, it was useless. It was completely useless. After that, no matter how many people ran around and tried to figure out how to communicate via mobile phones, the result was only closure. There was a busy signal, there was no exit in the lobby, and there was no mobile phone signal. Finally, they gathered in front of the waiting platform, confused and uneasy.
Maybe the fear was so great that some people were stressed out and needed to vent. Finally, the middle-aged man who had only been close to the subway because he was chasing the thief suddenly exploded and vented all his stress on the young man who had been seriously suspected of stealing his things. If the first few people had briefly focused on the fight, then when they witnessed an unknown train approaching the platform, and when they heard the bald man's accurate guess, Finally, the long-lost fear revived, and the anxiety that had been temporarily suppressed by the four people at first was completely released.
Where is this place? Why can't I get out? And who are the black train and the two strange men who appeared next to it? Everything is extremely strange, and the current situation is tormenting several people at all times, torturing their already fragile heart nerves.
"Um, this... Brother, the four of us were indeed swept into this place by a hurricane. After entering, the environment was pitch black and we could no longer find the exit. If possible, brother, can you tell us? Where is the exit? Please, please!"
As the only woman at the scene, it is obvious that this short young woman has the worst tolerance for fear, so it is natural that Peng Hu finished his words and was so frightened by the bad situation that he almost cried. She then asked the other party in a slightly tearful tone, and then began to plead with the bald man opposite who didn't look like a good person, hoping that the other party could tell her where the exit was. The logic was very simple. It was true that she did not know Peng Hu or Knowing Zhao Ping, it was also unclear who the two of them were, but in the woman's view, since the other party could predict why several of her people were here, it was equally possible that he knew how to leave.
With full hope, the woman prayed, but unfortunately, her hope was destined to fail and she was destined not to get a good answer. Just kidding, if they really knew how to get out of here, then the many executors of the trapped train would still need it. Long term stay? He had already run away completely, who would be so idiotic as to continue to strand the train and then go on the almost never-ending supernatural mission?
so……
After listening to the woman's plea, Peng Hu curled his lips in disdain in front of the train. However, just when the bald man was about to pour cold water on her, Zhao Ping stood beside Peng Hu in a low-key manner before he could speak. But with quick eyesight and hands, he touched the other person, and a deliberately lowered word came out of his mouth: "Brother Peng, wait a minute, if you can trust me, how about leaving the rest to me?".
Um?
As soon as the bespectacled man said this, Peng Hu was stunned instinctively. He immediately turned his head and looked suspiciously to his side, looking at the gentle face. Zhao Ping still maintained his composure and stared at the gentle face. After nearly ten seconds, Peng Hu, who seemed to understand what he meant, finally nodded and said by the way: "Okay, but be quick, the tide is about to appear."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
Seeing that the man with glasses answered so happily, Peng Hu didn't say anything, moved his position, and then gave up the right to explain to Zhao Ping without saying a word, while the man with glasses also looked like he deserved it. Standing among them, I thought that there would be some explanation later, but what surprised Peng Hu was...
Taking over the floor, Zhao Ping neither answered the woman nor talked about anything else. Instead, he shouted a sentence to the four people on the platform a hundred meters away in an extremely affirmative tone:
"Hey, lady, are you asking about the exit? I know the answer, and the answer is the train behind me! And this train is the only hope that can help you get out of this predicament and leave here!"
As the shouting of the finger train ended, also outside the blind spot of Peng Hu's field of vision, the man with glasses smiled, and his originally calm face revealed a hint of a cold smile that he didn't notice.
………
Boom, boom.
Mixed with harsh roars and vibrations of the rails, in a dark and lightless environment, a subway train was traveling at high speed along the rails. The train had no driver or any signs, and no one knew its final destination. Where.
The vision penetrates the darkness into the carriage, and enters the brightly lit No. 4 carriage.
There are now a lot of people in this slightly empty carriage not long ago. Yes, in addition to Peng Hu and Zhao Ping, since the train resumed operation in Duqian, there have been 4 new faces on the scene. , they were the well-dressed middle-aged man who originally complained that his cell phone was stolen, the man with short haircut and social atmosphere in sunglasses, the short woman who first begged Peng Hu, and the young man with hairy hair who called himself Li Tianheng.
At this moment, all the newcomers in the carriage were full of curiosity. They were all observing and sizing them up. While scanning the surroundings of the carriage, they looked aside with alert and nervous expressions from time to time, looking at the two people sitting next to each other. The bald man and the man with glasses are sitting next to the guest chairs.
The so-called people are different. Even if their mentality is similar, there are still differences in details, because curiosity is the strongest. Unlike others who look around and turn their heads frequently, the young man who calls himself Li Tianheng focuses his attention on the window, and the whole person just keeps doing this. They all lay in front of the window and watched the outside world for a long time. After confirming that no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't detect any light, the young man finally turned around. When he looked back, his whole face was filled with surprise.
(What's going on? Why can't you see any light from the outside world? Let's not say that it should be daytime at the moment. If we step back ten thousand steps, even if it is nighttime, after driving for a long time, the window outside the window is still as dark as ink? Where is this place? Where is it?)
As mentioned above, although young people with glitches are indeed very curious and only focus on observation, this does not mean that everyone is like this. For example, the short woman who first begged Peng Hu to answer her questions was not too focused on browsing the environment. Entering the carriage, after scanning the entire carriage, the woman shifted her target, and her eyes immediately locked on the man with glasses who was sitting silently opposite. The reason is simple. To put it bluntly, it can be understood as , the reason why the few people were willing to get on the bus obediently was because of the urging and encouragement of the bespectacled man. To this day, the woman still clearly remembers what the bespectacled man said to them before getting on the bus:
"Hope is right in front of you, and this train is your only hope to escape the predicament. Of course, you can also choose not to get on the train if you don't believe me, but in fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, you have no choice. , if you continue to stay on the platform, the only way out is to be trapped alive. If that’s the case, then why don’t you choose to believe me?”
Under the irrefutable statement of facts by the man in glasses, he finally succeeded, and the four people who had no way out also chose to board the bus after a brief hesitation, and coincidentally, as soon as they boarded the bus , the train started to resume running immediately after making a series of roars. It seemed to be just a coincidence. In fact, the few people did not know that they had narrowly avoided the tide of oysters, so under Zhao Ping's persuasion, they rushed to get ahead of the tide. It's safe to board the train before you show up.
Of course, the safety is safe, but the doubts in their hearts have not been solved. Not only have they not been solved, but after witnessing the surrounding environment, several people were further confused. They say this is true, and the fact is also true. After hastily observing the environment in the carriage, As the one with the weakest endurance among the newcomers, the short woman raised the question and asked her second question directly to Zhao Ping, her words were full of frustration.
"Well, this, this gentleman..."
Since the man with glasses looks gentle and elegant, and his appearance is obviously better than that of the fierce bald man opposite him, after a slight hesitation, the woman finally chose to ask the man with glasses for questions. In fact, this is not her fault, let alone her. When she first saw it, When Zhao Ping and Peng Hu met, no one would think that the bald man was an approachable character, so Zhao Ping, who was in sharp contrast, naturally became the priority conversation partner.
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Hearing the short woman calling her, across from him, Zhao Ping, who had been silently observing the newcomer, looked instinctively to confirm the other person's response. The woman finally plucked up the courage to ask the question to the man with glasses who had originally persuaded her to get on the bus: "Well, I want to ask, can this train really take us out of danger and reach the exit?"
As the question was revealed, the other three male newcomers also instinctively pricked up their ears. After all, the question asked by the woman was also the question they were most concerned about.
I thought that after hearing the question, the other party would nod in affirmation, but...
The result was exactly the opposite. Not only was it the opposite, but something happened next that shocked the short woman and everyone present.
Faced with the inquiry, the bespectacled man did not speak for the time being. Instead of nodding his head and reassuring as several people expected, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. After a long time, he answered the woman and even all the newcomers who looked at him with a calm tone and a message. , a cold notice that was enough to send four people instantly falling into the abyss:
"Sorry, I think you may be disappointed. This subway train will not take you out of danger to the exit. In fact, you can't go back, never go back, and this is no longer the real world. To put it simply, it can be understood that this is a different space, an alternative space that is divorced from reality, and the train is also a train controlled by a curse, a train that cannot be escaped once it enters, and an express train leading to hell. .”
