Since he had already begun to focus on the game under Zhao Ping's reminder, Li Tianheng, who was only nervous earlier, was awakened. As his thoughts shifted to focus, gradually, the young man thought of something, and found similarities from the mission information he had just witnessed. There was a sense of familiarity. Since he was familiar with it, he naturally had no need to conceal it and immediately began to explain everything.
"...The content and specific rules of the game are almost like this. To put it bluntly, it is to charge the machines manually. If all the machines are not fully charged, the players will not be able to open the exit. It is worth noting that the players must stay next to the machines during charging. , and every time this is the time when players are most in danger, everyone understands the reason."
After listening to Li Tianheng's explanation of the game that was more detailed than the mission rules, everyone understood. In addition to He Fei and Zhao Ping who already understood the toughness, Peng Hu and others who were still confused at first also almost understood the gameplay. However, due to their in-depth understanding of the gameplay, as Li Tianheng finished explaining, everyone subconsciously took a breath of cold air and sighed at the same time:
What a vicious way to play!
Yes, it is already obvious. The root cause that can make the executors gasp is the gameplay they just learned. Although it is just a game, the problem is that the curse has suddenly changed the game into a supernatural mission, and the executors also Also forced by the curse, he became a game player who needed to participate in person, and now he started playing games with Qi! As a result, you can imagine what will be waiting for you once you are caught by the mango? After all, supernatural missions are different from computer games. There is no such thing as loading and restarting! .
As I understood the content of the game and figured out the mission rules, the atmosphere gradually changed. The atmosphere in the carriage that was originally full of curiosity was gradually replaced by a chill, causing everyone to have a more or less rough mentality. Witnessing the changes in everyone's expressions, He Fei secretly sighed that something was wrong and was about to say something to comfort him. Unexpectedly, Zhao Ping spoke before him. He glanced at the crowd and talked eloquently: "By the way, there are a few more points that need to be added. First, the two videos just now The overall significance is of little significance. At most, it just revealed the mission location, and Qi did not show up during the whole process. Although the information has clearly stated that Qi has no special abilities, I still want to advise everyone not to believe it gullibly, otherwise..."
Zhao Ping did not continue what he said, but even if he didn't say it, everyone knew what the man meant. After a brief pause, the man with glasses continued: "As for the second point, this is another mission where props are banned. .”
There is no reason, no reason. The moment he heard 'Props prohibited', the executor, who was already looking ugly, turned even pale! Almost everyone seemed to be recalling some unbearable past event, and their stress increased sharply, and their fear became more and more obvious.
This scene was seen by Zhao Ping, and also by He Fei, and then...
(Damn! I know it’s impossible for everyone to ignore this, but you insist on mentioning it again. You must have done it on purpose!)
As mentioned above, seeing everyone's expressions change and fear surge under the bespectacled man's 'kind-hearted' reminder, He Fei cursed in his heart. He Fei couldn't sit still anymore. He quickly glanced at the time on his watch and stood up and changed the topic. : "Attention everyone, the time to get off the bus is coming soon, but before that I have something to tell you, especially you newbies, you should keep in mind, that is, no matter what situation you face, staying calm will always have advantages and no disadvantages. In addition, the overall mission this time is not complicated, and the way to survive is also directly on the table. We only need to follow the rules of the game. As for how to do it specifically, I don’t think I need to say more about this. Alright?"
"Okay, the train is about to stop, everyone is ready to get off."
……………
"Phew, I'm exhausted. Hey! Wang Qiang, don't walk so fast. Wait for me, wait for me!"
"It's not that I'm too fast, but Liu Dafu, you're too slow. Look at your fat body. It's time to lose weight. Hurry up, otherwise we will really have to spend the night in the wilderness tonight. Hey, wait a minute, what is that……"
"Ah, village, I see a village!"
"Village? Where? Where? Let me see! Huh? It's really a village. I didn't expect that there is a village in this place where no one shits. It's great. I don't have to sleep in the wilderness tonight!"
In the dark and gloomy night, two figures were talking and walking with flashlights in the night. The young man named Wang Qiang among them was thin and of medium height, while the one following him looked like a fat man, as mentioned in the conversation just now. In that way, the fat man's name was Liu Dafu, and he was friends with Wang Qiang. Not only that, as two young people in their early twenties, entertainment and play were often necessary. In addition, they had similar interests and loved traveling. Sure enough, after discussion, The two of them packed their bags and went on the journey without notifying their families. They had a great time during the trip. Although they could not travel all over the country, they could still visit several nearby cities. But there is a saying that is good, How can I walk along the river without getting my shoes wet? Just when the two excitedly decided to walk through a suburban field, something unexpected happened.
My commonly used mobile phone lost signal inexplicably during the journey through the wilderness!
As you can imagine, because they usually rely on electronic maps for travel, the signal network was collectively interrupted, and the two people who were unable to browse the electronic maps got lost without incident. In desperation, the two of them just looked like two headless heads. I walked around like a fly, trying to return to the city with my memory. Unfortunately, wishes are beautiful, but reality is cruel. From the afternoon until now, not only did I not leave the wilderness, but on the contrary, I became more and more lost, and the sky was also It got darker and darker as time passed, until it was completely dark.
As time went into night, the two people who were running around were already half-dead from exhaustion when passing through a certain forest. In addition, the environment was completely dark as night approached. Finally, Wang Qiang panicked, and Liu Dafu also panicked. Could it be that the two of them tonight Destined to spend the night in the open?
The answer is obviously no, because as they walked through the woods in the dark, with the help of the bright moonlight in the sky, they discovered something. Through the woods, they saw a tower not far away. village!
Seeing this, the two of them were overjoyed! Although the village will not necessarily help them get out of trouble, with the village there, at least they don't have to sleep in the wilderness! .
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.
"Quick, Dafu, follow me!"
They did it as soon as they thought of it, without hesitation, with their hearts full of joy. The two people who were half exhausted just now suddenly became energetic, walked down quickly, and soon entered the village through the entrance of the village.
The next thing is simple. As a so-called travel companion who loves traveling, there is nothing else, but being thick-skinned is a skill that must be possessed. This is said to be true, but it is also true in reality. As soon as they ran into the village street, the two of them chose They found a seemingly larger private house and knocked on the door. The purpose was very clear, and that was to shamelessly ask the owner to let them stay overnight. If that didn't work, they would probably find another one. Anyway, there were so many private houses in the village, so no matter what, They always meet kind-hearted villagers who are willing to stay with them, but...
Boom!
squeak.
In front of the courtyard door, just as Wang Qiang squeezed out a smile in advance and knocked on the courtyard door with his arm, the door opened with a soft creak, and the courtyard door that was thought to be tightly bolted was knocked open. Got it!
The door was unlocked. It turned out that the courtyard door in front of me was not locked at all!
"this……"
Looking at the deep and dark residential compound inside the door, Wang Qiang was slightly startled, and instinctively glanced at Liu Dafu, who was also astonished.
"Huh? The folk customs in this village are really simple. Don't you even sleep with the door locked?" Liu Dafu scratched his round and plump head. He sighed and then asked, but Wang Qiang really didn't know how to answer or what to do. Well, the reason is too simple, that is, even if the people here are so simple that they don't even need to close the door to sleep, he still dare not go in directly. It would be terrible if the landlord thinks him a thief.
Boom, boom, boom!
"Hey! Is there anyone inside? We are tourists from outside. Can you let us stay for one night?"
"Is there anyone? Is there anyone in the house?"
Since he really didn't dare to enter without the permission of the homeowner, even though the courtyard door was open, Wang Qiang still knocked on the courtyard door and shouted loudly, hoping that someone would come out to respond to him. Unfortunately, the result was that he was enough to knock on the door. For several minutes, no matter how much he knocked or shouted, the courtyard was always silent and no one responded.
"Is there anyone? Just say something back! We are..."
"Okay, okay, Dafu, please stop shouting. It seems that there is no one here. Forget it, stop shouting. Let's try another one."
Sure enough, considering the moral principles they had cultivated over the years, the two people, who were not thieves, finally gave up after seeing no response to their calls for a long time, and closed the courtyard door again to find another home. Not long after, the two came to another private house. I knocked on the courtyard door, but...
Who would have thought that as soon as his right hand touched the door, a familiar scene would happen again.
Still without using much strength in his arms, the door was easily knocked open, revealing the lifeless and dark courtyard of a private house.
Then……
Silence, silence, and silence. Looking at the familiar scene repeated in front of him, Wang Qiang stopped talking. He just looked at each other in silence with Liu Dafu who was standing next to him.
After a while, with Wang Qiang's nod, the two began to take action and experiment. They frequently ran to other houses and pushed open the doors one by one to try. During this period, they also shouted frequently. The result was strange, no matter which house. , no matter how you call, all the courtyard doors are unlocked, and no one responds to all the calls. It is as if the entire village has been hollowed out and there is no trace of human beings. No, not only are there no traces of humans, even the most common chickens, ducks and dogs in the countryside are Not a single cat was seen.
"Gulu." Looking at yet another dead house with an open door in front of him, Wang Qiang's mouth twitched and he was stunned and silent. Liu Dafu, after swallowing his saliva, asked tentatively: "I knocked on so many houses but no one responded. Here, here Could it be an empty village?"
Empty village?
Upon hearing Liu Dafu's guess, Wang Qiang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and vetoed it: "An empty village? How could it be an empty village? If it is really an empty village, then the village shouldn't be so neat, right?"
After that, he continued with his fingers: "Look at this street, and then look at the houses on both sides. Whether it is the street or the house, is there anything that looks dilapidated?"
"Yes, I have seen everything you said, but the key is that there is no one there. We have knocked on more than 20 people and visited nearly half of the village, but there is no one there? Let alone the villagers. I don't even see a dog." Seeing Wang Qiang refuting himself and shaking his backpack, Liu Dafu directly refuted with evidence, but precisely because what Liu Dafu said was well-founded, this time Wang Qiang was indeed There is no reason to refute it. Of course, it cannot be refuted, but what is the reason for all this to happen? Why is there such a strange and deserted situation in an apparently clean village?
Okay, let’s not talk about whether there is anyone in the village. It has nothing to do with them anyway, but the problem is that they can’t just stay on the street because no one responds, right? After all, the purpose of him and Liu Dafu coming here is to stay overnight. In this case...
"Come on, let's go straight in!"
Just as he had just thought, after basically confirming that every household in the village was quiet and dead, Wang Qiang suddenly became anxious, took a bite, and then strode into the front door!
"Hey! Wait, Wang Qiang, what do you want to do? We haven't obtained the landlord's consent yet? You are calling this a trespassing!"
"I agree! No one answered after shouting for so long. I really have no choice. Instead of standing here, I might as well go in and see what's going on. If there's someone in the room, we'll have to apologize!"
After getting rid of Liu Dafu's dissuasion and pull, Wang Qiang took the lead and walked into the courtyard. He saw his companions entering and saw that he was the only one left in the darkness. Morality can be let go for the time being. If you break into a private house, just break into a private house!
squeak.
Similar to the backyard door behind you, after passing through the silent courtyard, the main room was also easily opened with a push by Wang Qiang. He raised his flashlight and looked inside. He saw that the main room was clean and tidy, except for some rough furniture displayed inside. In addition, there is a black and white TV on the right side, paired with New Year pictures and calendars pasted on the wall. The overall atmosphere is very nostalgic and very 1980s style. The only strange thing is...
The two of them searched for a long time, whether it was the bedroom next to the living room, the adjacent west house, or even the kitchen and toilet. In the end, there was no one around, and the house was empty. It was like an empty house with no one in it!
10 minutes later, the main room of the house.
Staring at the bright candle flames on the table, Wang Qiang did not move in front of the table. Like Liu Dafu, who was sitting opposite, they both stared at the candles in silence. It was obvious that he really couldn't understand why the house and even the entire village were deserted. , although the two did find a place to spend the night, the thorn in their hearts inevitably took root. To be honest, if the village was already dilapidated, they could still pretend that it was an abandoned and empty village. He wanted to stay there for the night, but the reality was completely opposite. What is the reality? The reality is that the village is clean and tidy, as are the houses, but there are no traces of people. It is conceivable that unless you are a fool, anyone will be confused, doubtful or even uneasy! .
Finally, perhaps because the atmosphere was too quiet or he could no longer bear the inexplicable ups and downs, he suddenly came back to his senses. Seeing Wang Qiang still staring blankly at the candle without saying a word, Liu Dafu broke the silence and spoke first: "Brother, this village It’s a bit weird, I don’t know why, I’m feeling a little flustered right now, or else, let’s go and leave the village, or we’ll spend the night in the woods opposite.”
"What? Leave the village? Are you mentally ill, Liu Dafu? You can't live without a house that can protect you from the wind and rain, so you can sleep in the open air and camp? Do you know that it is autumn, and sleeping in the open air can make you sick? You have to leave on your own Let’s go, I’m going to sleep here for the night anyway!”
Sure enough, when Liu Dafu claimed to be flustered and suggested leaving, Wang Qiang, who had planned to stay overnight, was immediately unhappy. As soon as the fat man finished speaking, Wang Qiang made his attitude clear and insisted immediately. In fact, this is not to blame for Wang Qiang's insistence. After all, he had left for nearly 10 years with his luggage. One day, he finally found a village to stay. He was tired and tired and could not sleep in the wilderness anyway. It didn't matter even if the village was empty, as long as it didn't hinder his rest. As for the empty village in front of him? No matter what, he was only staying for one night anyway, and would leave at dawn. By then, even if the village was weird, it would have nothing to do with him.
"But, but I'm really flustered right now. I always feel that something is not right." Faced with the scolding and insistence of his companions, Liu Dafu still kept talking without giving up. However, Wang Qiang suddenly realized after hearing the fat man's repeated reasons.
"Ah, I understand, you kid is not afraid of cockroaches, is he?"
He put down a slightly sarcastic probing question, and before the other party could speak, Wang Qiang grinned and continued with an exaggerated expression: "I'm sorry, I've known you for so long and I didn't realize that you actually believe this? You don't even look at it? No matter what era we are in today, who still believes in this feudal superstition? Don’t worry, it’s as expected. I guess the people in this village must have gone out collectively. After all, every place has different customs. Maybe this village It’s custom to stay away from home for the night on a certain day every year? Okay, okay, it’s getting late, let’s go to the back room to sleep, we’ll continue our journey tomorrow!”
As Wang Qiang said, the time is indeed quite late now, and the time displayed on the screen when he looked at his phone just now has reached 23:05 in the middle of the night, which is the final stage of midnight.
Since the environment of the house was generally clean, and the bed in the back room was quite large, they soon entered the bedroom, unloaded their bags and clothes and lay down. In order to prevent a fire, the candle they had taken out from the cupboard earlier was also blown out. At this point, the room fell into darkness, and the two people who were really sleepy also touched their heads on the pillow and gradually fell asleep...
Time passed by, and after an unknown amount of time, Liu Dafu was awakened by the urge to urinate.
Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Ben Ben picked up his phone and looked at it carefully, and saw that the time was exactly midnight!
Of course, Liu Dafu doesn't care about the specific time. What he really wants to do now is undoubtedly to get out of bed and relieve himself, but...
Staring at the dark and silent room, the fat man shuddered and turned around to push Wang Qiang beside him.
"Hey! Brother, wake up, stop sleeping, can you accompany me to the toilet?"
"Stop sleeping, get up and go to the bathroom with me!"
"Ugh... stop, don't shake, don't shake... snore, snore."
Obviously, Liu Dafu, who did not dare to go out alone due to his lack of courage, was currently shaking Wang Qiang while making requests. It is true that he shook Wang Qiang very hard, but unfortunately he failed. No matter how he shook or shouted, he had already Wang Qiang, who fell asleep due to excessive exhaustion, never woke up. When the shaking was the most intense, he just muttered a few words casually, then turned his body and continued to sleep.
"Fuck! You're so cruel to the one named Wang!"
Seeing that Wang Qiang couldn't decide whether to live or die, Liu Dafu had no choice but to pick up his phone and get out of bed alone after cursing.
With the help of his mobile phone lighting, and with all the tension and frustrations in his mind, Liu Dafu successfully walked through the main room to the courtyard, and soon walked into the small toilet located in the corner of the walled courtyard.
Now that he has entered the toilet, the next thing is simple. He endures the unique fresh fragrance of the toilet, and after draining the urine in his bladder as quickly as possible, after shaking twice, Liu Dafu hurriedly picked up his pants and turned around to leave.
Can……
After just two steps, when the fat man had just reached the door of the toilet, or at the moment when he was about to leave the toilet and return to the compound, Liu Dafu somehow stopped, stopped walking out of the toilet, stopped moving, The whole person seemed to have been hit by a freezing spell and instantly froze in place, with no movement at all. .
Why don't you get out of the toilet? Why the sudden stagnation?
reason?
The reason is simple, that is...
Hooray.
One second ago, just when Liu Dafu was about half a meter away from the toilet and returned to the compound, a cool breeze swept through the compound. He heard a voice, a female voice that seemed to come from the eighteenth level of hell:
"where are you……"
The voice contained endless coldness, and the words were full of slowness and lowness. Although the voice was low and not loud, it was so clear and harsh in this silent and dead courtyard! So breathtaking! The result was certain. As soon as he heard the sound, Liu Dafu's body trembled as if he was electrocuted. He was frightened and stunned by the woman's voice, and his heart beat rapidly in an instant!
Keeping his heart beating wildly and his face pale, plus he was just at the door of the toilet, next, whether Liu Dafu wanted to or not, he saw something, discovered something, and saw a scene with his own eyes that made his scalp explode instantly. People screen:
On the right front, in the middle of the courtyard connected to the gate of the house, a woman appeared on the scene. A scary woman with disheveled hair and a black dress. The reason why it is called scary is because the woman is not standing, but standing with both hands. The way your feet are off the ground, they are suspended in mid-air! At present, he is just whispering to himself while moving forward in the air, heading straight towards the main room in front of him and slowly approaching! ! !
"where are you……"
"where are you……"
