"Wolf? Really, really? You didn't lie to me?"
Sure enough, the child's simple way of thinking made the boy in front of him show a double expression of surprise and fear after hearing Will's answer. That's right. If it is difficult for children to be afraid because they cannot understand some things that are terrifying to think about, then in the end, The best solution is undoubtedly to change the means, from complex explanations to security threats, and to intimidate the other party with things that can be fully understood. What kind of things are both easy to understand and extremely threatening? The man-eating wolf is undoubtedly the most direct and effective deterrent to Tom, so Will using the wolf to scare Tom will actually make the other person more afraid than explaining it in detail. After all, Will understands children, and his purpose is nothing more than hope. The other party should be obedient and stop going to the woods to the south.
"Of course it's true! I've seen a gray wolf at the edge of the woods when I drove through that forest before!"
"Gray wolf?"
"A large carnivore that is twice as big as the wolf you see in the zoo. It can kill a sheep with one bite. Even adult shepherd dogs don't dare to confront it head-on, and humans don't. You can only face them if you are carrying a gun. Well, since you want to hear it, let me tell you how many people that thing has eaten in the past..."
With his rich knowledge, Will completely dominated the conversation, easily changing the topic in the chat, avoiding sensitive topics and returning to normal chat.
It is said that time often flies very quickly when chatting. It is true. As time goes by, the sun gradually sets in the west. Not long after, the originally dazzling sun gradually turns red, and its position becomes farther and farther west from the top of the head at noon. Slant until the sunset appears in the western sky, until the sky gradually darkens and evening comes.
Inside the farm living room.
"Huh? It's getting dark so soon? I think we should go over there. My father and mother believe that dinner has been prepared by now. Will, let's go quickly!"
After drinking 3 bottles of Coke, he put down the water glass and suddenly came back to his senses. He watched the sky outside the window gradually darken. Tom did not forget his father’s original instructions. He stood up and left his seat and started greeting. As for Will, to be honest, although he personally He was reluctant, but due to Father Tom's previous kind invitation and the fact that he was actually a little hungry at the moment, the man finally agreed. At the urging of the boy, they both left the farm and rushed straight to the north of the farm while it was still dark. Tom's family rushed to another farm not far away, talking and laughing during the process, but...
During the walk, the two people talking and laughing in the middle, whether it was Will or Tom, neither of them noticed any details, or in other words, when they were rushing to the farm halfway, something happened nearby, and something happened. What……
The sun was setting, and darkness shrouded the sky. Under the increasingly gray sky, on both sides of the silent road, if I looked closely, I saw a person appearing inexplicably under the tree on the roadside about a hundred meters away from Will and the two of them.
A man in a black suit and a man with a slender figure and a pure white face.
At this moment, this tall, thin man in a suit with no facial features was standing under a big tree motionless, staring at the two people in front of him. Not only that, as the faceless man suddenly appeared inexplicably, his ears pricked up as if he was close to the distance. If you listen quietly, you can further discover that there are sounds around the man. The sounds are ups and downs and intermittent, very similar to the signal noise released by FM radio:
Blah, blah, blah.
………
My soul told me that I had experienced a death adventure a long time ago, a past experience that was very similar to the current situation. I was very curious about this and what had I experienced in the past? Otherwise, why would I have such a sense of déjà vu?
I concentrated my mind on it and tried to search for it, but I found no impression at all in my mind, not to mention any impression, not even the fragments.
Why is this happening? Why can’t the brain remember?
The answer is simple, no, not simple, but the answer has been frankly announced at the beginning of the narrative, that is, the soul!
That is engraved in the deep conscious memory of the soul!
Soul memory is different from brain memory. Human beings cannot search soul memory, just as a person cannot recall memories of past lives in this life.
However, nothing is absolute. If one day you can come to "Nothingness" by chance, even if you can't recall the past memories, you can at least hear the self-reflection that once belonged to you.
The soul settles in the void, and there is no consciousness in the perception. There is no space, no time, and nothing. There is only a voice, a familiar man's voice.
"I have a regret, a regret that is difficult to make up for. For some reason, I did not go to the end with my friends. So, this time, I will definitely make up for that regret. I will meet and reunite with my friends again. , and truly go to the end!”
The words echoed freely, and the emotion hit his soul, as if he had heard it many years ago. He Fei had a deep memory of this, because he had indeed heard that passage before, and it did come to his mind in the vague state of dreaming but not waking up. And the time was exactly at the moment when he entered the cursed space.
"He Fei, He Fei."
"Ah you are……"
"Have you forgotten me? Or have you gradually ignored me as time passed by?"
"You, wait, I remembered you, I remembered you, it was you, you appeared again, although I couldn't see you from beginning to end, but your voice was exactly the same as mine, but I will never forget it until I die. I will forget, not only that, in the memory of my soul that is divorced from reality, you have contacted me many times, but whenever I wake up, I will completely forget the content of the conversation."
"I really didn't misjudge you, and you really didn't disappoint me. I thought you would forget me, but I never thought you would remember me instantly. As expected of you, worthy of He Fei..."
"Wait a minute, I don't want to hear your inexplicable personal feelings just yet. I just want to know what you want from me this time?"
Silence, silence, silence.
It may be a day, a week, or a whole year.
Although it was a long time, in this empty void and chaos, time seemed to be the most meaningless thing. So, noticing that the other party was silent for a long time, He Fei also responded with silence.
until……
"He Fei."
"Um?"
"I'm looking for you this time to tell you something, something that both you and I must know."
"What's up?"
"Through your unremitting efforts, you have now officially reached the point of 'regret'. From here on, I cannot help you, nor can I predict your personal future, nor my own personal future. The only thing I could do was to stumble forward on the thorny road and keep walking.
"you mean……"
"I have reached an agreement with the terrifying existence that haunts me. It is an uncertain agreement that the other party may renege on at any time. My life will be temporarily extended, and you will continue on the journey just like me, continuing your endless journey. This is good news at the end of the journey, of course, provided that the other party does not go back on his word."
"As for the fact that I came to you specifically this time, the purpose is to say goodbye to you. If nothing else happens, you may never see me again. Finally, I just want to say one thing to you, although your brain will completely forget it when you wake up. This conversation between you and me will always be remembered in your soul, and because of this, I still want to say it, I must say it."
"He Fei, hold on, just like the vow you made back then, keep going forward until you find the truth and even solve the ultimate mystery that you have been exploring for so long!"
………
There was still that familiar hazy feeling, still that familiar sense of trance. I don’t know how long it had passed, but when He Fei opened his eyes, he had forgotten the above conversation and the earlier exchange, but he saw the truth. , saw this cursed space that seemed like it could never be escaped.
Hell Train Car No. 5!
Returning here means safety, which means 100% absolute safety, yes, 100%! At least in the memory of the young man, there has never been an executioner who died on the Hell Train. It is conceivable that this has not happened in other carriages, let alone the No. 5 carriage that has incredible healing power. After all, the train It is the only truly safe place in the cursed space so far, and it is also a place that no spiritual creature can enter.
Having said that, however, as he opened his eyes and witnessed the scene, for some reason, He Fei's heart, which was slightly relaxed just now, became excited again in just a few seconds! There is no other reason, because the girl he cherishes most is still lying on the ground of the carriage!
"Cheng Ying!"
For no reason, for no reason, He Fei first let out a loud roar, and then, before the others around him came to their senses, He Fei stood up and rushed forward without saying a word, rushing straight towards the girl opposite him, first sprinting in front of him, and then He just hugged the girl tightly in front of everyone!
This feeling is very familiar. Once upon a time, he also held another girl who was older than him in his arms like this, holding her tightly in his arms. However, unfortunately, although he held her very well that time, But in the end, he had no choice but to let go. Yes, he did not keep the girl, and this was undoubtedly the biggest regret in He Fei's life.
But this time it's different. He doesn't want to leave any regrets or lose the treasure in his eyes, so he won't let go no matter what this time, never, never! Even if the God of Death comes to him in person, He Fei will take the opponent back by force!
As a result, he did it, and after experiencing a thrilling experience, he narrowly defeated death!
The girl in her arms was named Cheng Ying. She was a short-haired girl who was covered in blood but could not hide her stunning beauty. At this moment, under He Fei's tight embrace and long-lasting affectionate gaze, the wound on the girl's back was opening. It was healing quickly and visibly to the naked eye. As the wound healed, the face that was originally pale as paper became more and more rosy and regained its color. A miracle happened. Car No. 5 once again created a miracle. No, no, it is better to say that Car No. 5 created a miracle. This result is all due to He Fei's early efforts.
Yes, the moment He Fei learned that Cheng Ying was in danger, he immediately rushed to Orr Manor desperately, and then, knowing that he was defeated by the perfect doll, he risked his life to eliminate the opponent, thereby setting the stage for the next step. The preliminary rescue efforts at the hospital bought time. It can be said that if He Fei hadn't made such a desperate move, not to mention Cheng Ying, even Qian Xueling and Kong Ling, who were staying with Cheng Ying, would have lost their lives. They will be taken away by the God of Death together, but now it’s different, it’s completely different now. After He Fei’s many desperate efforts, Cheng Ying persisted until the end of the mission and returned to the hell train. Now that she has returned to the train, Cheng Ying will naturally not die. Ever since, with his thoughts temporarily confused and still full of excitement, He Fei could not help but shed tears while holding the girl in his arms.
As for others...
As described above, no one present was blind, and the scene of He Fei hugging Cheng Ying was naturally clearly seen by other executors who had come back to their senses. At this moment, staring at the young man and woman, Everyone's expressions were complicated and full of emotions, and it was rare that Chen Xiaoyao, who had seen He Fei shed tears for the first time, was not sick and funny. Yes, this young Taoist priest who had regained consciousness within a few seconds of being sent back to the train was not as expected. Yelling with an exaggerated expression, he just stared at the man and woman for a few seconds, raised his right hand, made a Taoist hand gesture, and while slightly flexing his hands, he whispered four words: "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord."
However……
"Hey! Chen Rizhi, what are you looking at? Have you never seen young men and women showing affection? Does this scene of violently attacking singles excite you?"
Who would have thought that before Chen Taoist finished pretending to be a worldly master, a sudden girl's voice from behind broke the silence and ruined the atmosphere. Chen Xiaoyao, who originally wanted to say something else, felt like a flea in an instant. Jumping three feet, he suddenly turned back, and when he took a closer look, he saw Kong Ling squinting at him with his nostrils pointing towards the sky, his expression full of contempt, his eyes full of disdain, next...
Taoist Chen's eyes widened and his expression changed dramatically! He directly asked tentatively in a tone full of astonishment: "Eh? You, you are ethereal? You, a weak chicken scumbag that no one can beat, are still alive? This, this is so unscientific!?"
"Damn! Chen Ruffian, you have grown up, haven't you? How dare you call me a scumbag? And you deliberately said with a surprised expression that I couldn't live? You are seeking death! Even a scumbag like you can survive. Isn’t it strange that the lady survived?”
"No, no, you can't say that. First of all, you have to understand who Pindao is? I am a typical outsider with vast supernatural powers. A mere supernatural mission can't defeat me, but you are different. Strictly speaking You’re just a weakling, isn’t it a miracle that you survived a mission of this intensity?”
"Hey, you're an expert from this world, if you're so worried, why do you always beg me to help you predict life and death with a shy face before starting a supernatural mission?"
(It’s started, it’s started, it’s about to start again!).
This was the first and only thought in the minds of everyone present when they witnessed the fierce exchange between Kong Ling and Chen Xiaoyao. Of course, thoughts are thoughts, and thoughts are thoughts. In fact, not everyone is appreciating the two funny men attacking each other. At the same time, 5 On the ground on the right side of Car No. 1, a man with glasses whose whole body was covered with water stains and whose lenses were slightly broken was staring at him with a solemn expression. He stared intently at the young woman who was still lying on the ground. In his field of vision, the woman was stained with blood. The body was covered in blood, and the missing right arm was growing and recovering rapidly. Under the miraculous healing function of Car No. 5, bone-derived flesh and blood grew bit by bit. It was not until the arm returned to its ruddy face that the man with glasses who looked solemn just now could As if nothing had happened, he turned around and left, sitting in the corner with his back to the guest chair with an expressionless attitude, and remained silent ever since.
It was obvious that the fainting woman who had been stared at by the man with glasses for a long time was none other than Qian Xueling, whose arm was cut off by Ella in the previous mission.
"Hey, brother, why are you crying? Everyone is looking at you!"
Snapped!
He Fei was currently immersed in a state of mind dominated by emotions. Although he cried silently and was deeply immersed in memories, this state of mind did not last long. Soon, he felt it. First, he felt a strong hand falling on his shoulder. At the same time, a familiar and rough word was transmitted directly into his eardrums from behind. Hearing the voice, He Fei was startled, and immediately turned around instinctively. Then, he saw the burly body, the black vest full of blood stains, and the ferocious stubble. Face, at this moment, the other person is looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Brother Peng! It's great that you are okay!"
That's right, as the young man shouted with joy at this moment, the burly man without hair in front of him is Peng Hu, who has never met He Fei since he entered the mission! At this point, I have to mention that the bald man has a strong life. There is no denying that he once had his tongue broken by a female beetle, but he insisted on relying on his personal perseverance, and even persisted until surgery. There is no doubt that he won. Or, in other words, when the man woke up and found himself on the hell train, Peng Hu immediately confirmed an astonishing fact without even thinking about it, that is...
Supernatural mission completed!
Looking at He Fei's delighted gaze directed at him, and listening to the other party's loud and happy shouts, what else could Peng Hu say? No need, there is no need to talk too much, at least for him, a tough guy like him, he only needs to do one thing at the moment...
He opened his arms with a wide smile, and immediately put He Fei and Cheng Ying in a bear hug, followed by a hearty laugh that echoed throughout the scene and filled the carriage:
"Hahaha! That's natural. I've said it many times before. Who am I, Brother Peng? I won't lead a dog easily. Don't you think I'm still living well?"
It all shows that white people often know how to observe words and emotions and examine appropriateness. These words are simply tailor-made for Peng Hu. Let’s not talk about how men laugh and how hearty they are. The hugging action of the bald man is enough to prove that his emotional intelligence is so high that few people can match it. Others may not. Obviously, He Fei instantly understood the other party's true intention. On the surface, the bald man seemed to instinctively hug himself and Cheng Ying because of the joy of survival, but his real intention was to cover up his current embarrassment. After all, most of the people present had never I have never seen an intimate scene between me and Cheng Ying. He is indeed a bald man who understands me well. His manners are indeed impressive. As for He Fei...
As his mood returned to a stable state, and he realized that there were indeed many eyes staring at him, under Peng Hu's deliberate cover, the college student let go of the girl in his arms, and Peng Hu also let go of the two in his arms just in time.
At this moment, He Feili stood up and observed the scene. His calm eyes swept along the faces of each executor. It was obvious that the young man was trying to think of words to speak. After all, he was the team leader, and there were certain words that only he was suitable to say. He said, scanning the people around him, he saw that most of the members of the car except himself were still there. Just like in the past, everyone once again passed the mission without any danger, and successfully eliminated the supernatural crisis after paying a certain price. , but unfortunately the majority does not mean all. First of all, the Northeastern fitness coach named Li Dayong is missing, and the yellow-haired young man Lu Sheng is also missing. In addition to the above two people, the female programmer named Yang Yang is also missing. No, seeing this scene, He Fei knew without even thinking what would happen to the three newcomers. Faced with this outcome, the college student could only sigh helplessly, and could only silently mourn for the above three people in his heart.
Fortunately, most people survived successfully, and He Fei was very happy about this. At this moment, as his vision turned, he first glanced at Cheng Ying on the right who was still unconscious but was actually safe, and then skipped the left side. Peng Hu, who was grinning, observed the two of them and continued to look at them. Next, he saw Chen Xiaoyao and Kong Ling, who were noisy and fierce opposite, and Qian Xueling, who was also unconscious and breathing steadily. Finally, he looked at When we got to the corner, there was a man in glasses who was sitting on a guest chair with an expressionless expression.
It seems that the personnel are basically there, and the team seems to have suffered relatively minor losses, but...
Somehow, after glancing at the many familiar faces at the scene, He Fei suddenly felt nervous as if he suddenly remembered something extremely important, and his heart was so high that it reached its peak!
Being nervous, the young man began to search, and began to look around with his eyes wide open. He looked here and there carefully under the curious eyes of everyone, and during the search process, the young man kept repeating three words in his mind:
(No way? No way? No way?)
(Isn’t this unscientific? If this is really the case, then you will be at a huge loss, a huge loss! Huh? Then, that’s...)
"call!"
As the saying goes, hard work pays off. With the unremitting efforts of the college students to search, it was not until He Fei turned around and cast his eyes on a dark corner on the left side of the carriage that He Fei finally gave up his worries and discovered a certain item with his own eyes. The trembling figure in the corner then relaxed.
If you turn your vision to the corner at this moment, you will see the following scene:
At this moment, in the dark corner on the left side of the carriage, a spiky young man covered in blood who looked like a tough guy but had an ugly face as if he had eaten shit was currently sitting on the spot dripping with cold sweat. He was sweating, panting, and his body was shaking frequently. , his face was extremely pale. Although his physical injuries had long since healed, he was still immersed in fear. As for the identity of the young man, He Fei knew it, Peng Hu knew it, Zhao Ping knew it, or everyone present knew it.
The other party was none other than the witty, domineering and invincible burr-headed young man, the powerful being who was comparable to a savior hero during the mission...
Li Tianheng! ! !
