As his mind began to think wildly, the growing fear caused this seemingly tough man to completely collapse, so that the corners of his eyes became moist and tears flowed. He moaned and whimpered like a rat caught in a trap that would surely kill him. However, just before Sun Zhiyong collapsed, At this time, maybe God opened his eyes to help or a miracle happened. During the period of fear, when Sun Zhiyong raised his head again and subconsciously looked at the fire ahead, he saw a figure, a figure that was very impressive in Sun Zhiyong's personal eyes!
Yes, that was a figure that flashed by. In fact, when Sun Zhiyong noticed the figure, the figure had already flashed into the opposite room. But even if the figure only flashed by, Sun Zhiyong could still see it clearly under the candlelight at the door. The figure is wearing gray riding boots, long black hair, light blue jeans and a jacket of the same style. Who else could it be if it wasn't Tang Meng? ?
"Ah! Miss Tang!".
As expected, after it was confirmed that the person coming was the senior female named Tang Meng, Sun Zhiyong, who had just been looking desperate just now, suddenly became energetic and overjoyed! Seeing that the senior person he had been looking for for a long time finally appeared and happened to enter the candle room, Sun Zhiyong shouted with joy, then got up and ran without hesitation, striding towards the opposite room. Obviously he wanted to meet up with Tang Meng who had just walked in.
However, because he was too happy at first, although Sun Zhiyong confirmed the identity of the other party, he still ignored a small detail. If Sun Zhiyong had just observed carefully, he would have discovered...
Under the candlelight, there was no shadow of "Tang Meng" who had just walked into the room.
"This, this is..."
At this moment, at the end of the alleyway, whether it was Zhao Ping standing behind, Tang Meng or Kong Ling standing in front of the door, the three of them were staring ahead collectively, staring at the open wooden door in front of them with similar doubtful eyes. door.
As mentioned before, because he was too timid and afraid of death, Zhao Ping gave up at the critical moment. The man with glasses had no courage to approach the three doors in front. In desperation, Tang Meng had no choice but to risk approaching with Kong Ling, and then at Zhao Ping's signal Next, I opened the 3 doors one by one. Although the doors were all open, unexpectedly, there was no imaginary picture inside, and the interior of the 3 rooms did not exist at all. The situation is basically the same.
"Small difference" means that the items in the room are not much different, because the things placed in the three rooms are all sundries, various equipment and tools related to decoration. .
Looking closely with the help of a flashlight, I saw that there were single-person trolleys for transportation, piles of cement, gray trowels for building walls, plumb bobs, hoes, ash buckets, etc. There was no doubt that these things were all Commonly used tools and materials for decoration, and these ordinary things are now almost filled with three rooms. If, please note that if, if the person witnessing this scene at this moment is a newcomer or other ordinary people, then when you see the room You will definitely be disappointed in the future, but Zhao Ping is different, Tang Meng is different, and Kong Ling is different. The people standing outside the door are senior people, all experienced senior people. They are good at observation, pay attention to analysis, and can make any seemingly ordinary things happen. They found details in the environment, and at this moment, looking at the many tools inside the door, even though they were a little disappointed, the three of them still concentrated on checking after confirming that there was no danger in the room. Then, they discovered something that seemed ordinary but unusual. The place……
As mentioned above, although the three rooms are all filled with decoration tools, the tools placed in the central room are obviously much less than those in the left and right rooms. If you look closely, there are only the following items in it:
A shovel, a brush for painting the walls, and...
A pile of white lime on the ground!
……………
In the dark and gloomy alleyway, in front of the door representing the end, there are currently one man and two women standing, and three executioners whose expressions are gradually changing as their eyes turn.
At this moment, staring at the pile of tools on the ground, the three of them, including Zhao Ping, were silent. They just moved their eyes back and forth among the tools, sometimes looking at the shovel and sometimes at the brush. After a while, it was as if they had said that. , the three of them unanimously focused their attention on the pile of white lime in the center, and then there was silence and silence for a long time.
until……
(It turns out, that’s what it is!!!)
It was still as if they had agreed, but half a minute later, suddenly, Zhao Ping, Tang Meng, and Kong Ling, who had been silent, all suddenly changed their expressions without any warning! It was as if they had found the answer to some extremely shocking truth in an instant, and all of them suddenly woke up. Among them, Zhao *** responded the most intensely. Before the two women, Tang Meng and Tang Meng, could say anything, the man with glasses had already taken the lead and ran away. After entering the room, he immediately picked up the shovel and ran away. Zhao Ping did this, followed closely by Tang Meng and Kong Ling, and they all ran towards the alleyway from where they came from!
Yes, there is no need to say anything or explain. Just the almost identical expressions and movements of the three people have actually hinted at the answer, and the three people do know what to do next!
Da da da da da!
The three flashlight beams undulated and swayed under the fierce running of the holder. First, they turned the corner when they came. Soon, the sound of rapid running clearly resounded throughout the entire alleyway. Although the basement was dark and depressing, it could no longer stop the impatience. The footsteps of the three people, yes, currently, whether it is Zhao Ping, Tangmeng or Kong Ling, they are all running, planning to leave the basement as quickly as possible, and then execute the plan, execute that important plan that is related to everyone's life and death! .
only……
As he ran, Zhao Ping gradually noticed something was wrong.
First of all, it can be affirmed that the three people present are all senior people with good physical fitness. They are standard healthy people. When they have sufficient physical fitness, they can run hundreds of meters without any problem. That is true, but as the three people get more and more As they ran farther and farther, Zhao Ping gradually felt tired. The reason for his fatigue was that the road was too long. No matter how the three of them ran, there was always a dark and gloomy alleyway in front of them, and they could not see the way from the basement. Entrance!
As a smart person who is good at capturing details, Zhao Ping once estimated the length of the tunnel. From the initial entry into the tunnel to the final arrival at the end, it was initially estimated that the length of this underground tunnel would be about 300 meters. 300 meters is not a long distance, and it only takes a little while. It was true that he could pass through it easily by running. However, the distance had deviated during the return trip. After estimation, he had run almost 500 meters. Logically, he should have reached the entrance a long time ago. Unexpectedly, he was still there. In the alleyway, there is still endless darkness ahead!
"Wait! Something's wrong, why haven't we reached the exit yet? Why is the journey so long?"
"Yes, yes, why did this alley suddenly become longer? Wasn't it like this when we came here?"
If Zhao Ping is like this, how can Tang Meng and Kong Ling who are following behind not notice it? Just when the bespectacled man suddenly felt something bad and instinctively stopped, the two men's faces changed color almost at the same time, and they both asked the key to the problem. The key is that the alley is too long. They have run all the way to this point. No matter how fast they speed up, there will always be something ahead of them. There seemed to be endless alleyways and corridors, and there was no way to find the entrance to the basement!
At this moment, in the narrow and dark alleyway, except for Zhao Ping who still maintained his basic composure, Tang Meng fell into panic, Kong Ling was completely irritable, and at this moment the girl was shouting like an ant on a hot pot. The originally cute girl Her face gradually became ferocious. It was obvious that Kong Ling was not afraid of the strange events, but she was really anxious to save her teammates. After all, Zhao Ping once said that the disappeared Cheng Ying and others were very dangerous and might not even survive. At 12 noon, she had just checked the time, only to realize that the time had reached 11:20 without realizing it, with 40 minutes left. She thought she had plenty of time, but she never expected that she was now trapped in an underground alleyway. The tunnel that seemed normal when we arrived was inexplicably lengthened? No matter how much she ran, she couldn't reach the end or the entrance.
"Damn it! Where is the exit? Why can't I find the exit? If we continue to delay like this, Brother He Fei and Sister Cheng Ying will..." Thinking of this, Kong Ling's flaws were splitting, and he was shouting even more, obviously being disturbed. Impatience went to her head. It is conceivable that if the props were not banned in this mission, the girl would have taken out the soul thermometer, and then directly used the method of soul separation to forcefully penetrate the ground and rush to the villa. Unfortunately, she could not do it. Under the invalid rigid rules, she could only be trapped here, trapped in this dark alley by some unknown supernatural force. In fact, not only was this the case, but Tang Meng didn't understand that time was running out? At the same time, he was also vaguely aware that he had been tricked, and together with Zhao Ping Kongling, he was blocked by some invisible supernatural phenomenon.
He couldn't leave, but compared to Kong Ling who was carried away by impatience, Tang Meng still retained a little sense, so after confirming that there was most likely a supernatural force in the alleyway, Tang Meng turned his head and looked at Zhao Ping.
"What should we do? We, we seem to be trapped, and what's trapping us is..."
"Ghost hits the wall.".
There is no reason, no reason. Before Tang Meng could finish what he said, across from him, Zhao Ping, who was frowning and thinking all the time, had already revealed the answer to the public. After adjusting his nose and glasses, he gritted his teeth and said the analysis result. This is certain and inevitable. , as the person with the most experience present, Zhao Ping has experienced too much, and his understanding of many supernatural phenomena is far better than Tang Meng. In fact, as early as he stopped and paused, the man guessed what was going on in front of him, and The reason why the tunnel seems to be extending endlessly is probably due to the secret work of supernatural power. As for the specific nature of this supernatural power? The answer is undoubtedly the ghost wall, a supernatural ability that can cause people to experience sensory illusions!
"Ghost hits the wall? Do you mean..." After hearing this, Tang Meng seemed to understand something. Tang Meng was thoughtful. During this period, he also looked back at the alleyway and corridor, while Zhao Ping nodded and continued: "The so-called ghost hits the wall. , is actually a supernatural method that can affect human beings' external perception. Most of them mainly affect the field of vision. To a higher degree, it can even deprive people of their sense of direction, and finally trap people to death."
Having said this, he paused, and after scanning the surroundings like Tang Meng, Zhao Ping frowned again: "From my personal feeling, this time the level of ghost wall-breaking is relatively high. It not only affects the field of vision, but also affects the sense of direction. There has also been a deviation, and now I can no longer distinguish where is the front and what is the back.”
What!
"Wait, don't talk yet." Tang Meng was shocked when he heard that even Zhao Ping admitted that his sense of direction was completely confused. He was about to say something, but was stopped by Zhao Ping. No one, including Tang Meng, knew about the glasses. What did the man mean by this, but Zhao Ping slowly turned around and looked at the alleyway the next moment he stopped Tang Meng from speaking. With the help of the cat's eye flashlight, he saw that everything around him was normal and there was no supernatural phenomenon at all. Of course, this was just the surface. In fact, the alleyway It has long been chaotic and filled with some invisible supernatural force. Just like now, the alleyway seems normal, but Zhao Ping cannot distinguish the front and rear directions. At the same time, the alleyway seems to have no end and the front and rear directions are all dark, even with a cat's eye flashlight. This kind of excellent light-concentrating lighting tool cannot illuminate both ends, and it seems to be a closed cage without borders.
The above is the lane corridor in the eyes of Zhao Ping. This is also the lane corridor in the eyes of Tang Meng and Kong Ling. Perhaps in Tang Meng Kong Ling's eyes, the current situation has no solution, they can't leave, and it is impossible to leave here. It was a basement, but Zhao Ping didn't think so. Just when Kong Ling was impatient and restless and Tang Meng was frustrated and nervous, Zhao Ping's breathing gradually became heavier, and then after observing the environment in the alleyway, he lowered his head and meditated. In the process, the man also An extra glance at the watch to tell the time.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters can be solved by
After saying this, Tang Meng was slightly startled, but Kong Ling, who had obviously more mission experience, seemed to suddenly understand something. Before Tang Meng opened his mouth to ask, the girl had already taken the initiative to approach Tang Meng like Zhao Ping, and first grabbed Tang Meng. His right hand then said with a face full of urgency: "Sister Tang Meng, please stop asking, hurry up, close your eyes! Then do what Uncle Glasses said!"
"Then, let's get started."
The result was certain. Under Zhao Ping's order and Kong Ling's urging, regardless of whether he understood it or not, Tang Meng could only obey the instructions honestly. At this point, they held hands and closed their eyes. Soon, following Zhao Ping's order, the three of them At the same time, he stepped back, walking backwards with his vision completely closed, and began to move slowly in the dark and gloomy alleyway.
Da da da……
The footsteps sounded again without any suspense, but because they were walking backwards and their eyes were closed, the three of them walked very slowly. They just followed each other step by step in the alleyway based on their feelings. Of course, the above is not the point. The point is, just While the three of them were moving in silence, something happened that shocked the three of them.
I don’t know how long I walked, and I don’t know exactly where I went. During the movement, Tang Meng seemed to notice the light, and the light passed through the eyelids to his eyes. It felt like closing his eyes in a brightly lit room. Even though his eyelids were closed, it was bright. However, the light can still penetrate the eyelids and be clearly captured by the inner pupil. Of course, the feeling is just a feeling, but in fact there is still a difference. The difference is that the light currently reflected in the pupil is not stable, but flickering, which is not as good as sunlight or sunlight. The light is so stable, it feels like fire! ?
(Um?).
Upon noticing this, Tang Meng suddenly felt curious, and she even had a faint urge to open her eyes, wanting to see what the suspected fire thing was. Although the urge had appeared, luckily she remembered Zhao Ping's instructions and knew clearly. The warning not to open his eyes at any time, and because of this, Tang Meng had no choice but to give up, so he kept his eyes closed while his heart was beating wildly. Similarly, Tang Meng, who was walking in the middle, could detect the light of the fire and was ranked second. How could Zhao Ping and Kong Ling not notice it? However, what is different from Tang Meng is that with more mission experience than the female doctor, both Zhao Ping and Kong Ling are more determined, which Afraid that the firelight had been flickering in the pupils covered by eyelids for a long time, the two of them closed their eyes tighter. In addition, while closing their eyes tightly, Tang Meng discovered something else. He found that the two of them were holding each other. The palms of his hands were already sweating.
The above is the true state of the three of them at this moment. After noticing the fire around them, their hearts were beating wildly, their palms were sweating, and their nervous reactions were beyond words. Now they just closed their eyes and continued to move, knowing that there was something strange nearby. In addition, , due to the fact that the eyes were closed the whole time, one scene was not seen by the three of them, that is...
At this moment, if you observe the scene from a bystander perspective, you will see that during the retreat of Zhao Ping and the others, they passed by the room. A room that did not exist when they came was existing on the side of the lane. The door of the room was open and the interior was almost empty. There is only an old wooden table in the center, with a white candle standing on the table. It is the white candle on the table that produces the fire. The flames sway on the top of the candle, like a maw of the abyss seducing prey. Attracting all people or things approaching here, not only that, if you continue to observe through the candlelight and look inside the room again, you can also see additional corpses, two male corpses that died in extremely miserable conditions, and the identities of these two corpses Then it was Sun Zhiyong and Wang Xuegui!
Yes, they are dead, all of them are dead. At this moment, these two newcomers who were exploring and running in the alleyway have now become corpses, lying on the floor of the room. Not only lying on the ground, they are dead. The appearance is basically the same. Whether it is Sun Zhiyong or Wang Xuegui, their heads are turned 180 degrees to their backs, their extremely wide-open eyeballs have even protruded from their eye sockets, and their expressions are obviously distorted, and they will never close their eyes! ! !
Of course, although the above scene is extremely horrifying, in fact, this scene was not seen by Zhao Ping and others. Even though the candlelight illuminated the scene extremely clearly, the three of them still closed their eyes the whole time and remained unmoved, with no intention of opening their eyes. , yes, it was clear that the fire was flickering and it was clearly close at hand, but under Zhao Ping's initial warning, the three of them still suppressed their fear and continued to retreat. During this period, they said nothing or did nothing, they just slowly retreated according to the plan, Keep going backwards, too
I don't know how long it took, but after continuing to retreat for about 150 meters, the three of them reached the end at the same time, and their backs all touched a thick wall.
Wall, dead end, no retreat, doesn't that mean... the end! ? .
Ding!
The moment their backs came into contact with the cold wall, their hearts trembled. Then, without anyone reminding them, all three people, including Zhao Ping, suddenly opened their eyes and opened their eyes in unison.
Opening his eyes and looking back, he saw that there was indeed a mottled wall in front of him. He looked up and saw the opening, a square opening that was projecting a large amount of living room light.
This is the exit, the basement entrance from where we first came.
Exit found!
Hooray!
Sure enough, seeing the exit close at hand, the next moment, Kong Ling moved and was the first to run towards the stairs, while Zhao Ping grabbed a shovel and followed closely behind Tang Meng. Soon, three figures followed. Escaping one after another, the three of them returned to the living room of the villa, and finally escaped from the eerie underground alleyway!
However, things are not over, far from over, or returning to the villa is just the beginning! ! !
Since they have all found the truth in the basement, no matter who it is, they now know that leaving the basement does not mean it is safe, because there is a more important thing that they have to do waiting for them. If they do not get that thing done in a short time After everything is done, He Fei will die, Cheng Ying will die, Peng Hu will die, and all the mysteriously missing companions and teammates will die! ! !
"ah!".
The description is like this, and the fact is even more so. As soon as he returned to the living room, Kong Ling screamed and ran away, rushing straight to the second floor above. Kong Ling was so impatient and crazy that he didn't care. Tang Meng was also extremely impatient. Because he was too impatient, he even Before Zhao Ping could say anything, Tang Meng grabbed the shovel from Zhao Ping's hand and immediately chased Kong Ling to the second floor. The reason why the two women were collectively nervous and even crazy was also very simple, that is, time was running out. When they finally escaped from the alley and returned to the villa, the time had reached 11:45, and there were only 15 minutes left before the team was destroyed!
