Chapter 564 Fork in the Road
Chapter 564 Fork in the Road
"Yes, we listen to Boss Lin and don't separate." Pi Ruan said sternly, but everyone can see that he is afraid of being alone and being killed by ghosts.
Everyone's footsteps echoed in the empty tunnel, and there was endless darkness in front and behind, as deep as it seemed endless.
The surrounding darkness was like a tide, and the group of people seemed to be sunk into the deep sea, with a strong sense of suffocation that made them suffocate.
A weird atmosphere is brewing.
Unlike before, Jiang Cheng focused more on his side.
From the boring footsteps and the occasional panting, he smelled something strange.
"Whoa."
"Whoa."
The sound was very soft, mixed with the footsteps of the crowd, it was almost inaudible if you didn't listen carefully, as if someone stepped on the water from time to time.
Jiang Cheng immediately became alert.
Although the mine is damp, everyone walks in the middle of the tunnel for safety reasons. Because of the placement of the railway tracks in the middle, the terrain is relatively high and there is no water accumulation.
who is it?
Who is treading water?
Jiang Cheng pretended to look around casually, his eyes swept over the tired and even impatient faces.
He knew every face, and nothing mixed in.
Could it be Pi Ruan's fault?
Was it the ghost pretending to be him?
But after observation, Pi Ruan lowered his head and arched his back, panting heavily from time to time, looking as if he was going to die, but he didn't see anything wrong.
The most important thing is that he walked obediently by the railroad track, and there was no water under his feet.
wrong!
There must be something wrong.
If this problem is not solved, they are afraid that they will all be trapped in this tunnel to death.
He deliberately slowed down, and slowly retreated from the middle of the team to the back of the team. Soon, he stopped and made a terrible discovery.
The number of people in the line is wrong.
There are three teams in total, he, Lin Wan'er, Fatty, Huai Yi, Chen Qiang, plus Pi Ruan who joined the group temporarily, there are 6 people.
Zhao Xingguo, Linghu Yong, and Pan Du have a team of 3 people.
Luohe and Fu Fu are two night watchmen.
The three teams add up to a total of 11 people.
But now, standing in front of him, walking with their backs to him, there are 11 people!
Including him, there are 12 people in the team.
There is one more.
really.
Something got in.
It is this thing that confuses their eyes and makes them fall into this vicious circle that they can never get out of.
To be precise, this is called ghost hitting the wall.
Jiangcheng had encountered such a thing before, in the ancient copy.
At the end of the dungeon, they couldn't escape the rain curtain no matter what. The building in front of them was close at hand, but they couldn't escape.
In the end, she abandoned An Xuan before leaving.
Because he was being watched by the ghost, and the ghost didn't want to let him go.
Does that mean that they are facing the same situation now, and some of them are also being targeted by ghosts.
If this person is not left behind, then everyone will die.
Who can be targeted?
Jiang Cheng looked away and stared at the back of a person.
lo river.
It should be him!
This ghost was only encountered after they entered the tunnel, so it can be concluded that it is related to the supernatural events in the tunnel.
And Luohe was the first of them all to answer the ghost call.
The target of the ghost is him.
You must get rid of him in order to leave this infinite cycle of vicious circle.
Of course, there is another way to choose to help Luohe get rid of this ghost, but Jiangcheng feels that the danger is too high.
This ghost is more troublesome than the one that entangled An Xuan in the ancient copy.
Jiang Cheng observed his teammates in front of him more than once, but what made his heart chill was that he clearly knew that one of them was a ghost, but he just couldn't find it.
Every figure from the back gave him a familiar feeling, and he could name every one of them.
This is so weird.
Jiang Cheng even guessed that this ghost has the ability to distort memory within a certain range.
Under such conditions, Jiang Cheng had no psychological pressure to abandon a teammate who had threatened him.
There was no suspense, and soon, they returned to the position where the stone was placed.
At the same time when he saw the stone, Pi Ruan tremblingly said with an expression on his face that he was about to die, "We...we came back again."
If plan one fails, plan two can only be tried.
"Let's go separately." Zhao Xingguo stared at the darkness in the distance, retracted his gaze, and said seriously: "There is no other way."
It is very likely that there will be no chance to meet again in this grouping. Everyone does not want to break away from the original team, so the Jiangcheng team can only be in one group and the other two teams in one group.
"Little earthworm." Fu Fu narrowed her eyes and looked at Pi Ruan, "Would you like to be on the same team as my sister, who will protect you, and if you encounter a ghost, you can help her."
"Damn!" Pi Ruan, not to be outdone, replied, "Be careful, hot-tempered girl, I heard that the ghosts here like to have flat chests, and they won't miss an airport like you that they don't see in a thousand years."
The original serious scene of life and death was messed up by the two of them, and the atmosphere was completely lost.
"Life and death depend on fate and wealth." Zhao Xingguo clasped his fists and said, "Take care."
"Take care." Jiang Cheng replied.
After talking about Luohe, Zhao Xingguo and others turned around and walked back.
Just when the figures of the few of them were about to disappear from the field of vision, Huai Yi's eyes paused, and then he seemed to see something extremely terrifying, pointing to the opposite side: "Then what is that?"
Lin Wan'er stretched out her hand and slapped Huai Yi's outstretched arm away.
Luo He, Fu Fu, and Zhao Xingguo were supposed to be 5 people, but there was a sixth person in the team!
Just at the end of the line, followed by a tall figure.
The figure is hidden in the darkness, looming, carrying a large black bag, covering the entire upper body.
There seems to be a lot of equipment hanging around his waist.
Before everyone continued to observe, Luohe and the others fell into the darkness.
The tall figure also disappeared.
"Damn!" Pi Ruan's startled breath caught everyone's attention.
Everyone turned around quickly, and there was a fork in the road not far away, and what was even weirder was that there was light coming from inside.
"It seems that it is that guy who haunted us." Chen Qiang said, he has also experienced the ancient books, and he also has a certain understanding of ghosts hitting the wall, so he figured everything out immediately.
"Let's go." Jiang Cheng stepped forward, "Go and have a look."
They came here for the supernatural event of Huishi Mountain, so naturally they would not reject this sudden fork in the road.
Different from normal tunnels, there are lights at intervals on the top of the branch road tunnel. The light is that dim yellow light, and a railroad track extends into the branch road.
Jiang Cheng squatted down and looked at the rails in the tunnel. After a while, he said, "It should be here."
The railroad tracks were stained with rust, and the sleepers under them were even more rotten, which contrasted sharply with the original railroad tracks in the tunnel.
It has been decades at least.
Such tracks certainly cannot run normal trains, only the ghost train can.
