1673, Dreams Come True (22)
In the castle, more than 20 people formed two circles as Manager Chen said, but the lit candles were also two more than previously discussed, after all, the shadow caused by three candles was still too wide.
Everyone stared at the direction they were responsible for with wide eyes, maintaining no blind spots in all directions.
No one dared to speak, for fear that the slightest negligence would be successfully attacked by those elusive ghosts.
The candlelight illuminated everyone's faces with a pale yellow light, and everyone remained silent, and those who didn't know saw this scene and thought that this was some kind of cult scene.
However, it is impossible for people to maintain a high degree of concentration all the time, especially in such a terrifying atmosphere, there were still people talking just now, in fact, they were not so afraid, and now everyone stopped talking, looking at the expressionless or frightened expressions on the faces of the people next to them, but it became even more weird.
"Manager Chen, the candles in front of us are running out, and it's time to replace the next wave of people to light the candles. ”
The first wave of people who contributed their candles broke the terrible silence with a sudden voice.
"Okay, I'll arrange for the person to the right of the person who lights the candle now to light his own candle and put it in front of him like them, and if there is wind, protect it with his hand so that the wind does not blow the candle out. ”
Manager Chen is still very thoughtful, and his instructions always make his subordinates feel at ease.
The others also quickly followed Manager Chen's arrangement.
The second wave had just lit their own candles from the candles of the people next to them and placed them on the ground when they felt a gust of wind blowing.
Someone didn't protect it in time, and the freshly lit candle was blown out.
However, there were still people who reacted quickly and protected the candle, but because the first wave of candles burned to the tail, the lamp was relatively long and not so easily blown out by this breeze, so this episode did not cause panic among most people.
But someone still whispered, "The doors and windows of this castle are closed, how can there be wind? Is it the wind that those things are coming?"
Manager Chen has no childlike Lando, and he has no memories brought by people who have encountered all this, so he doesn't know that this world will make dreams come true, but as a leader, no one is allowed to speak to shake the morale of the army.
Therefore, Manager Chen shouted and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense, after we entered the castle, we stayed in the hall and didn't go to other rooms, maybe the windows of other rooms were not closed, and the wind outside would pour in, what's strange." ”
The others also comforted themselves and chimed in, "Yes, it must be that the doors and windows of the other rooms are not closed properly, so that Feng will come in, don't talk nonsense." ”
However, this kind of self-consolation does not bring a sense of security to everyone, and some people have found things that are even more frightening to him from everyone's self-consolation.
"What if...... If there are really doors and windows that are not closed, will they, will the things chasing Teng Xiaolan and Lu Yunzhe outside come in from those places?"
I don't know whose questioning made everyone who was busy comforting themselves shut up and turned their heads to look at Manager Chen.
"Manager Chen, do you think this is possible?"
"Manager Chen, the things in this castle are indeed like you said, we don't dare to appear when we get together, but, but the things that chased Lu Yunzhe Teng Xiaolan outside are physical, like zombies, I'm afraid those things won't be afraid of light." ”
"Yes, there are a lot of them, and if they find any doors and windows that are not closed, and come in, we will have to deal with the thing that has come and gone in the castle without a trace, and we will have to deal with the horrible group of walking corpses, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with. ”
"Manager Chen, why don't you send some people to check the doors and windows?"
"Yes, Manager Chen, we are just sitting here and waiting to die, we have to find hidden dangers in time. ”
Everyone said a word, I said a word, Manager Chen also listened to it, and couldn't help but worry.
It seemed imperative to send someone to check the doors and windows.
But who to send to check? It certainly won't work to send one, two people seem safer, but three people seem to be more reliable.
When Manager Chen was thinking, everyone thought that he disagreed with this decision, and some people couldn't help but be afraid and said loudly, "Manager Chen, whether it is in the company or here, we have always trusted you and listened to you, and you are responsible for the safety of everyone else!"
"Yes, you're responsible for our safety. ”
"Just send a few people to check it out, aren't there a few young and strong young men here, just send them!"
"Why do you want us to go? We are young and strong, but our lives have not yet begun. ”
"I don't have a girlfriend yet, what if I die?"
"Is it possible to tell us old people or women to go? Can we go and stand up to the problem? You are young and strong, it is better not to have a girlfriend, Yuanyang is not vented, the demons and monsters are more afraid of you, and you still have a chance to escape. ”
"Yes, you young people are also quick to react, and you can deal with danger better, close the window and come back immediately!"
"Our woman's yin qi is heavy, so those things are not afraid of us, in case we go out and are possessed by those things, you will definitely not recognize it when we come back, and when the time comes, ...... Wouldn't it hurt the whole company?"
"You guys are the best choice, if I were still young, I would definitely go immediately without saying a word, I won't talk nonsense here, young people nowadays, there is no dedication at all. ”
"Brother Liu, how old are you? How old are you? Our company is not a sweatshop that oppresses the elderly, you haven't retired yet, the male retirement age is 60 years old, and you are still many years away from retirement? Are you considered an old man? You are too old to walk? Some time ago, the company organized to play basketball, didn't you still rush to play! That walking like flying, the spirit is much better than that of us sub-healthy young people!"
Brother Liu was so choked that he couldn't say anything to refute, so he could only hold his heart and pretend to be out of breath, "Ouch, I'm angry, I'm angry, my chest hurts!"
The "old" people next to him supported Brother Liu, "Brother Liu, be careful of your body, we older people can't compare with young people, and we can't quarrel, if they have to ask us old people to check the doors and windows, then, let's go, it's just such a young man, when he goes out in the future, look at that company and dare to ask for a young man like him!"
"It's like I'm seventy or eighty, but I'm not old, I want to rely on the old and sell the old, phew! When I'm old, I'm Lin Daiyu on the bus, and I'm as old as Zhang Fei on the basketball court!"
"Why are you scolding? Didn't you see Brother Liu fainting in anger?"
