"Mom, it hurts me so much!"
After suddenly bursting out with a series of wails of pain, and not knowing where the strength came from, Chen Xiaoyao, who had just fallen to the ground, collapsed, covered his eyes and rolled, miraculously climbed off the ground and staggered to run, before running up to the girl who didn't know whether she was alive or dead. He picked up Kong Ling and staggered away, moving away as far as possible from the faceless man in a suit who represented the source of the noise. It was obvious that Mu Dun could indeed effectively limit the pursuit of the faceless man, but Mu Dun could not block the spread of noise, and it was precisely because of the inability to block it. There is no noise, so even if the mango has restricted his movement and is entangled in the tree, the reverberating noise still affects him all the time. Unless he can run 100 meters in a short time and run away from the area affected by the noise, he will not be able to stay any longer. It's just as simple as seven bleeding eyeballs exploding!
Da, da da da, da da da.
run! Run with too much life, and run as far as you can while the creature is temporarily trapped by the wood escape. Even if you die, you must take the void away from the dangerous area before death. As the old saying goes, one death is better than two. A strong one to the death!
The results were mixed, both good and bad.
The good news is that after some staggering running, Chen Xiaoyao successfully took the girl a hundred meters away and successfully escaped from the impact of the noise.
As for the bad news…
His physical strength had reached this point, and his energy was completely exhausted.
Then……
Plop.
The young Taoist priest fell down. After barely running a hundred meters away, his body went limp and he fell straight down. Together with Kong Ling, they both fell to the ground without moving.
This is the helplessness of mortals, this is the sorrow of mortals.
No matter how powerful you are, you may have many tricks, but you are still a mortal, and mortals always have limits. When the limit reaches the peak of physical support, even if you have the perseverance to support it, you will eventually have to face reality, the cruel reality of physical failure.
(It's over, I'm dead. I didn't expect to struggle to this point. I'm still going to die. But it doesn't matter. I tried my best, and Kong Ling also tried his best. It's not that we are not strong enough, but that the beast is too strong. What the hell It’s like a monster that’s a bit more powerful than the Earthbound Spirit. It’s not a shame to die in the hands of such a heaven-defying creature, but it’s just... I’m not willing to give in. I’m still a little bit unwilling after all...)
The moment he fell to the ground, when he realized that he didn't even have the strength to move his fingers, Chen Xiaoyao was in despair. During his despair, his thoughts were wandering around. He was unwilling to give in and didn't want to die the night before victory. Yes, after all, this was the train's arrival at the end. The last mission before the mission. As long as the team can survive this mission, the team will get the golden key. With the key, they can go to the Hell Reincarnation Station and see the legendary mysterious place with their own eyes. As a result, the ship capsized. He never thought that at the last moment when he was about to win, his ship would capsize in the ditch, and unexpectedly he would encounter a perverted creature that was not an earthbound spirit but was slightly stronger than an earthbound spirit. Faced with such a result, how could Chen Xiaoyao be willing to accept it? Therefore, even if he dies, he is destined to die in peace!
Chen Xiaoyao was not sure whether his ending would be to die in peace. However, he was certain of another thing, an unexpected change that he had just discovered. Yes, just when Chen Xiaoyao had the unwilling thought, he discovered What, what did I see? With the help of the faint light, the remaining round left eye could faintly see a black shadow running in front of me.
………
Chen Xiaoyao was unlucky. In fact, from the moment he entered the forest, he had been having bad luck. First, he was teleported away by a cursed mechanism, and then he was the first to encounter a locust, and was then chased by a locust. He finally fought hard Fortunately, he escaped with his old life, but not long after, he was deceived by Qi together with Kong Ling, who met by chance. The other party disguised himself as Peng Hu in an absolutely perfect way, and finally deceived the two of them.
Then, both of them were caught, and both were trapped in the spiritual space under the strange attack of the monster.
This is an ability that no executor, including Chen Xiaoyao himself, has ever seen before. It can be called a fatal means without any solution. Once you enter, you lose the possibility of escape until you die in the spiritual space.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Kong Ling used the props and used the method of out-of-body experience to escape from the spiritual space in disguise.
He originally thought that escaping from the spiritual space would save him from death, but unexpectedly, after letting go of the two of them, he took off his disguise and revealed his true body. He directly released noises in the appearance of a faceless man and attacked, causing the two people who finally returned to their souls to fall into a life-and-death crisis again. Of course, Kong Ling fainted, but Chen Xiaoyao was miserable. In order to prevent the girl's efforts from being wasted, Taoist Chen just resisted the noise and used Taoism when he was only 10 meters away. The wooden escape trapped the faceless man, and then he staggered and ran with Kong Ling in his arms. As a result, he fell down. After barely running a hundred meters, he collapsed from physical exhaustion.
Chen Xiaoyao thought he was finished, so he began to lament. While lamenting his bad luck, he felt unwilling to die. He didn't want to die. He really didn't want to die. It wasn't because he was afraid of death, but because he still had two wishes that had not been realized. To inherit Maoshan Taoism That's one thing, but more importantly, he doesn't want to die on the last eve of victory. Even if he dies, he still has to see the legendary Hell Reincarnation Station before he dies, right?
Next…
He definitely didn't see the Hell Reincarnation Station, but he saw the black shadow a few seconds later.
Ahead, in the dim environment, a burly humanoid black shadow was running closer, running straight towards himself and Kong Ling.
Exhaustion of physical energy does not mean exhaustion of brain. At least he who had just got rid of the influence of noise did not think that he was dazzled. Even if he only had one eye left, it was precisely because of his left eye that he could really see the black shadow clearly. The burly figure ran closer and closer to him, until the distance was close enough, and then he saw Peng Hu.
Smooth head, tall body, and that ferocious face full of flesh!
(Damn it! This trick is coming again, it’s just too much!)
"Ah! Pindao will fight with you!"
It is often said that once bitten by a snake, Chen Xiaoyao is afraid of well ropes for ten years. Seeing the familiar face of the visitor, Chen Xiaoyao, who should have been overjoyed, was instead frightened and despaired for a moment. Then, the moment the bald man arrived in front of him, he instilled the energy to give it a try. , using the last remaining strength, he jumped up suddenly, raised his palms, and slapped Peng Hu directly in the face after swearing.
result……
Snapped!
The bald man grabbed his right hand as he swung out suddenly, and was immediately met with an angry and scolding man: "Damn! Are you crazy? You're the boss, come with me!"
(Um?)
I originally thought that the other party would directly use the same trick on his forehead after catching me. Unexpectedly, the bald man did not drag himself into the spiritual space again as expected. Instead, he shouted angrily and picked himself up, then picked up Kong Ling and walked away. Run, just like this, he led the two of them to run quickly, running farther and farther in the opposite direction of the noise.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.
At this moment, seeing Peng Hu beside him furious, and seeing the man's brows and head covered in cold sweat, Chen Xiaoyao was confused while moving.
(What happened? We were clearly captured again, but this time we both completely lost the ability to resist. If that’s the case, why didn’t we launch an attack? Why didn’t we attack Kong Ling and me? Could it be that this time Peng Tiger is...)
………
Time passes quietly, and the environment gradually changes. The day passes by wandering around, until night falls and the night returns.
The fourth day of the supernatural mission, time, 0:15, in a certain area of the forest.
The branches piled in mounds on the ground crackled softly under the flames, bringing warmth and light at the same time. Even if this light could only illuminate part of the scene, it was already considered valuable to Zhou Bingbing.
Under the light of the fire, Zhou Bingbing's face turned red and she was busy. In order to keep the flame burning for a long time, the woman would pick up branches and put them into the fire from time to time. Next to her, there was another person sitting beside her, a man, a gentle man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
With the help of firelight, Zhao Ping stared expressionlessly down at the two cards in his hand.
If you look carefully, you can see that the two cards are printed with different numbers. One of them is printed with the Arabic numeral 1, and the other is printed with the Arabic numeral 6.
(Although the search was fruitless during the day, it is certain that the curse did not lie. There are indeed cards in the forest, but they are just difficult to find. After all, the forest area is too large. It is indeed difficult to find all 8 cards in such a large area. , Fortunately, I am not the only one in the forest. According to the probability, other people should have gained something more or less. If the evaluation is calculated in this way, the executor has collected about 4 to 5 pieces so far.)
As mentioned above, Zhao Pingzheng was running his brain and thinking alone. After clarifying his personal intention early, he concentrated all his energy on collecting cards. This was said to be true, but it was also true in reality. In order to complete the task and return to the train as soon as possible, the man with glasses After trying their best to save Zhou Bingbing last night, the two of them went together and searched everywhere. They completely gave up looking for their companions and only focused on the cards and ignored everything else. There is no denying that Zhao Ping tried his best and was serious about almost every place he passed. I searched for the mark, but unfortunately, there was nothing, nothing. That is to say, except for the No. 1 card that I got at the edge of the forest and the No. 6 card that I accidentally discovered before a long time ago, I searched for a whole day, and so far there is nothing. reward.
Faced with these results, and as the time also entered the fourth day of the mission, Zhao Ping gradually felt uneasy, and stopped moving to rest even though no danger had occurred. Then, Zhou Bingbing was full of surprise. With his eyes, he gathered branches to make a fire.
Sure enough, Zhou Bingbing was at a loss after witnessing the man with glasses’ obvious fire-making action. The reason was simple. It was too cold and it was winter. In fact, Zhou Bingbing had been interested in making fire since she and Zhao Ping were walking together. I am obsessed with it, yes, it is too cold, it is really too cold. Even if there is no snow in the sky, the mist and frost all over the forest are still unbearable by ordinary people. It is conceivable that ordinary people cannot bear it. , how can Zhou Bingbing, who is already weak, endure it for a long time? During the move, Zhou Bingbing frequently shivered and became colder as he walked. Whenever he took a short break, the woman would always suggest lighting a fire to keep warm. The advice was reasonable, but unexpectedly, he was rejected by Zhao Ping every time and sternly rejected by the man with glasses without any reason!
Why not let it ignite?
This was the thought that suddenly popped into Zhou Bingbing's mind after the man rejected her. She did not deny that she had asked him for the reason many times. Unfortunately, the man ignored her at all. It was not until the number of questions gradually increased that the man casually said the next sentence. Not a reasonable answer:
"Ignition can easily lead to fires."
After receiving this answer, Zhou Bingbing was furious. What was the reason? Even if there are certain safety risks in lighting a fire to keep warm in a dry forest, the problem is that the two people present are not amnesiacs after all. Can't you put out the fire before leaving?
So naturally, Zhou Bingbing immediately made a rebuttal, but it was okay if she didn't. As soon as she did, the man with glasses said this to her:
"If you want a fire to keep warm, you can light it yourself. I'll take my leave first."
Full of grievances, Zhou Bingbing, who had no courage to be alone, finally compromised. She had no choice but to compromise. Who made her just a newcomer? The earlier experience of almost being killed by a lynx irritated the woman all the time. Every time she recalled this moment, Zhou Bingbing always felt frightened. Then she subconsciously touched the wound on her face, and touched the wound under the bandage that had been killed by the lynx in her dream. Cut off ears.
Because she no longer wanted to be alone like before, Zhou Bingbing had no choice but to compromise and now followed Zhao Ping closely. Likewise, the man with glasses was her only support at the moment.
But, why?
When the time comes to night, when it enters midnight and early morning again, the man with glasses who insisted on safety and never lit a fire before took the initiative to collect branches and light a fire to keep warm while resting?
this……
Zhou Bingbing didn't understand at all now. Of course she asked the man with glasses why he went back on his word, but the man's answer was:
"Don't you wish to light a fire to keep yourself warm?"
As the old saying goes, nothing can happen without profit. It is true that nothing happens for no reason in the world. Many times people often have their own personal intentions when doing certain things. He Fei understands this, Cheng Ying understands, Peng Hu understands, or in other words There is no veteran who cannot understand this. Even Zhou Bingbing, who is a newcomer, understands clearly. However, she has to accept it because she is indeed very cold, very cold. Sure enough, facing Zhao Ping that is in front of her. Zhou Bingbing asked rhetorically, although she was puzzled, but Zhou Bingbing finally accepted it happily, and then helped to share the fire.
Time continued to pass, and the two of them were still leaning against the fire, feeling the warmth of the blazing flames. Zhou Bingbing recovered and felt a little comfortable after eating some bread by the fire. The only thing that puzzled her was...
Next to him, the man named Zhao Ping remained silent from beginning to end, just holding the card and looking at it repeatedly.
I don't know whether it was curiosity or confusion about the man's condition. Seeing that the other party ignored her for a long time, after throwing two branches into the fire, Zhou Bingbing cautiously opened her mouth and called out: "Hey, Senior Zhao, Senior Zhao?"
"Um?"
Zhao Ping, who was bowing his head silently and seemingly deep in thought, was brought back to reality by the woman. Xun Sheng raised his head and stared intently, and saw Zhou Bingbing staring at him with a frustrated look. Seeing this, Zhao Ping asked casually without knowing why, "What's the matter?"
Seeing the bespectacled man raise his head to answer, after hesitating for a moment, Zhou Bingbing finally plucked up the courage to ask a question and expressed her long-suppressed personal worries: "Well, it's nothing, I just want to ask when can we collect all 8 cards?" Huh? After all, three days have passed since we entered the forest, and it has already entered the fourth day of the mission..."
Having said that, she pointed to the backpack beside her and the woman continued: "I just counted it and we don't have much food. According to the current consumption, if this continues, you and I probably won't be able to survive the last day."
Zhou Bingbing's worries are not unreasonable, and what he said is all true. It is true that everyone did bring drinking water and food when they came, but the problem is that these food are not enough for people to persist for too long, at least not until the end of the mission. If If this continues, it is expected that the food will be exhausted in another day. Once there is no food as a supplement, they will only be hungry looking for cards. It is conceivable that without food as a physical supplement Wandering around searching for cards, I believe it won't be long before the two of them are completely exhausted.
This is the question that Zhou Bingbing is most worried about at the moment. The reason for asking this question is nothing more than to remind Zhao Ping to think of a way quickly, to remind the man to think of a way to collect all the cards and at the same time give a hint, hinting that if the other party really can’t find it, you can’t find it anyway. Do you want to leave a way out for yourself?
What's the way out? Obviously, the goal is to leave as early as possible and leave the forest immediately while there is still a small amount of food left!
Yes, although Zhou Bingbing is as timid as a mouse, she is not a child who doesn't understand anything after all. As a woman who has gained unlimited fame in reality because of hooking up with the company's young president, even a fool wouldn't believe Zhou Bingbing when she says she has no means or scheming. , there is no doubt that Zhou Bingbing has her own scheming, or that she has no hope of finding the card from the beginning to the end. Her ultimate goal is to leave, and she will try her best to leave this land that is 100% safe. The purpose of the terrifying forest where the tiger exists is clear. However, it is a pity that she does not dare to be alone. Ever since she experienced the near-death encounter last night, the woman has been completely frightened, and then she turned to the senior man named Zhao Ping in front of her. He was his biggest supporter. It was good to have someone to accompany him, but the problem was that Zhao Ping didn't want to leave. The man seemed to have made up his mind a long time ago and would not give up until he found all the cards.
Seeing that the man's intentions were completely opposite to his own, Zhou Bingbing started to save the country by relying on her own scheming. Without daring to directly propose leaving the forest, she instead made indirect hints and hints, trying to put psychological pressure on the man. Just like at this moment, the woman He used the excuse that there was not much food left to remind him again. Although he kept talking about collecting cards on the surface, he was actually hinting to the other party that instead of looking for cards that could only be encountered by luck, it would be better to change the plan and choose to evacuate. Even if It doesn't matter if you've already lost your way. As long as you keep walking in a straight direction in a certain direction, you will always be able to leave the forest. In addition, besides being a hint, her actions also have another meaning. Simply speaking, it can be understood as self-protection!
I remember that when the lot was drawn, the female veteran named Cheng Ying had warned everyone that no matter what the final result of the draw was, no one could go back on it, and she would kill anyone who dared to go back on it. Based on her long-experienced judgment in the workplace, Zhou Bingbing was convinced that Cheng Ying was not lying, or that the beautiful girl who exuded murderous aura was indeed capable of keeping her word. At least, she could kill newcomers without mercy and decisively. If she left the forest alone, Cheng Ying would be very likely to do so. Bajiu would take advantage of her and use her life to scare other newcomers. In other words, Cheng Ying would definitely kill herself, but...
What if Zhao Ping was left with him out of the forest?
With this bespectacled man in front of her who is also a senior and seems to have a high status in the team, can Cheng Ying be able to kill decisively?
That's right, this is scheming, this is Zhou Bingbing's true intention!
At present, the first thing she has to do is to try her best to influence the other party, first to make the man with glasses feel the pressure and force him to give up, and then use this as a basis to block Cheng Ying's murderous plan. Only in this way can she be truly safe. There is no doubt that , up to now, Zhou Bingbing still believes that only the forest is extremely dangerous, and everything he does is to leave the forest.
As for Zhao Ping...
After listening to the woman's true statement full of worry, the man was unmoved and just nodded in a nonchalant tone and responded: "Well, you are right, the food has indeed been reduced, and the possibility of surviving to the end is also very slim. , but it’s okay to save money, and you might be able to collect a few more cards during this period. Plus the number of cards collected by others, there may be hope.”
"Hope? But what you said is just hope. Are you sure that other people scattered around will be able to find the cards like you? What if others don't find one? What if you are the only one in the real situation? Are there two cards in your hand?" After receiving the man's optimistic answer, Zhou Bingbing immediately became anxious and hurriedly refuted it, directly responding to the opponent's optimistic guess with vicious guesses. The words he said were so precise that it was almost impossible to find them. A slight logical flaw.
Next, Zhao Ping stopped talking. After listening to Zhou Bingbing's defense and response, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he looked up and down at the woman with interest. It wasn't until Zhou Bingbing looked confused that the man raised his head after studying for a moment. He raised his right hand, first adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, then changed the subject, and said something pointed to Zhou Bingbing: "Miss Zhou, you seem to be very concerned about your and my current situation, or do you think you have something Any plan?"
(What does he mean by this? Could it be that he saw my true intention? No, it’s impossible. I never mentioned leaving the forest from the beginning to the end. In any case, it’s impossible for him to guess my true intention. Or, Is he testing me?)
"Huh? Senior Zhao, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand? And what do you mean by 'plan' just now?"
Years of workplace experience have given Zhou Bingbing, who is already quite scheming, an excellent acting talent. Seeing that the bespectacled man had something to say, the woman decisively pretended to be stupid and directly asked a question with a blank expression. Then, Zhao Ping smiled and after observing Zhou After Bingbing's confused reaction, which no one could tell was fake, the corner of her mouth was slightly raised, and then she pointed under her body and pointed at the two backpacks placed side by side and said something, which was purely comforting to Zhou Bingbing. : "Don't worry, the food in the two backpacks combined is enough."
