441: Phantom
I slowly stood up and made eye contact with the men.
When the others saw me stand up, they all stood up.
There were a total of 8 people on the other side, all of them in black robes, covering their bodies tightly, revealing only a pair of black eyes. Everyone held a crooked bamboo pole in their hands, and the top of the bamboo pole was something shaped like a gourd, but the color of the gourd was black, the black and bewitching kind of black.
Except for me, everyone else was witnessing the Phantoms for the first time, some curious, some fearful, and some timid.
"Master, how come these people are like ghosts, their feet are so dangerous that they don't hit the ground. Xiong Xiaoyun came behind me and asked in a low voice.
I explained, "It's not that their feet aren't touching the ground, it's that the soles of their shoes are made of a material that can change color, just like chameleons, which can change into different colors in different environments, as if they are one with nature, so their feet will look as if they are floating in mid-air." ”
Hearing me say this, Xiong Xiaoyun immediately disdained, "Trick up." ”
Indeed, this kind of trick is a bit tricky, and the Phantom Gang's gang name sounds very secretive, probably to cater to the gang name, they deliberately made the modeling and other behaviors very secretive.
Cutting through the mess, they're just a bunch of people.
"Everyone, please come with us. After the leader finished speaking, the team turned around neatly, leaving only our backs one by one.
They didn't care if we would follow or not, and just left.
I put my backpack back on my back and said to the others, "Go, keep up." ”
Lu Xiaofeng quietly pulled my arm, "Master, these people don't know how to play any tricks, right?"
"We have no choice but to keep up with them. ”
If we don't follow them, we'll have to figure it out on our own.
In this unfamiliar environment, it is very dangerous to explore on your own.
If I were alone, it would be easy to say, but for now, I have to think about everyone else.
Besides, the Phantoms were able to find us in the jungle, and I wondered how they managed to do it.
After following them for a while, I found that I had some impressions of my surroundings, and it seemed that I was going in the right direction.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please. Looking at the familiar gate in front of me, I knew that my destination had arrived.
It's just that I didn't see anyone else along the way, which makes me wonder, is it just us who were brought to this place?
Just as I was wondering, there was a noise behind me, and we subconsciously turned around, only to see another pair of Phantom Gang members walking over with a group of people dressed very similarly to us.
To my surprise, that group of people was none other than Long Aotian.
"Master Long, don't you know the destination?" I took a look, and there was no change in the number of people, but they were more or less embarrassed, and everything was completely different from the beginning of the eyes.
Long Aotian's face was calm, but when he looked at the Phantom Gang, there was a hint of anger in his eyes.
He didn't answer me, but I wasn't embarrassed.
An arrogant person like him, even if he suffers a little setback, will be unconvinced.
It was the woman who kindly answered my question, "It's useless to know the destination, people have moved on the road, hey, we were careless, and we almost fell into the trap." ”
After the woman finished speaking to me, she looked up at the Phantom Gang, "Now we can move freely, right?"
"Everyone, please feel free. A dozen Phantom Gang members entered the gate, and soon the figure vanished.
Only our gang and Long Aotian's group were left on the field.
Brother Long Aotian stared at the door in front of him, his expression was cold, he didn't say a word, and walked in menacingly. The woman straightened her clothes and followed, followed by the other bodyguards.
They're all in, and we're going to go in too.
"Let's go, too. ”
Everyone followed me, and I followed Long Aotian and their team, and entered the gate one after another.
As we entered, the door closed automatically, and the thud was particularly piercing in the quiet darkness.
Zhao Xiaoru was taken aback, and subconsciously hid behind Abin, "How eerie is this, it's so scary." ”
I laughed and said, "If you're not spooky, how can you call it the Phantom Gang." Don't be afraid, these are the result of some very rare plants and special designs. You see. ”
As soon as I reached out, I plucked a leaf, which was painted with green phosphor and looked like a ghost.
Zhao Xiaoru breathed a sigh of relief, "It's so mysterious, it turns out that it's all fake, it's really boring." ”
After walking for a while, Long Aotian and their team in front of them suddenly stopped.
Everyone thought something was wrong, and they stood on tiptoe to look in either direction.
"What's wrong?" the woman asked.
Long Aotian slammed his fist on the wall next to him, "I haven't even seen a ghost after walking for so long, what do these people want to do? I don't have the patience to waste time with them here, you guys, go in and search for me, find the lady and the young master, and take them away." ”
The woman hurriedly reassured, "Never, you forgot the warning on the note?"
Notes, what notes?
After being reminded by the woman, Long Aotian was silent for a while, and then threw a punch, "Damn, I, Long Aotian, have never been so cowardly in my life." ”
"Dissipate your anger, if you can come here, who doesn't have a handle or a wish in their hands, don't be impulsive. Keep walking, it's all here, and there's no hurry at this time. ”
The woman's words successfully caught my attention, first of all, what note, they all received the note, why didn't I receive it? Second, what is the content of the note? Listen to the woman's meaning, what should be written on the note should be the handle or wish of the people.
That is to say, these people are not only here because of their relatives, but they also have more or less unspeakable secrets?
I decided to ask the matter clearly, "Master Long, please wait a minute. "I chased after it.
Long Aotian and the woman stopped at the same time.
I said, "I haven't seen any note, did they leave the note you are talking about?"
The woman and Long Aotian glanced at each other with strange expressions, "Are you sure you didn't receive the note?"
I nodded affirmatively, "Sure." ”
If there was a note, I couldn't have found it, so how could I have missed an important clue?
The woman looked at Long Aotian again, and the strange look in her eyes became even heavier, but she soon covered up the strange look with a smile, "Oh, maybe everyone's situation is different, it's nothing." Let's hurry as soon as possible, I don't know how far we have to go, my legs are almost sore. ”
The woman's meaning was obvious, she just didn't want to answer my question.
Perhaps, because she was afraid that I would ask again, didn't she just say that the content of the note was their handle.
Things are getting more and more bizarre and bizarre, and the fog is so foggy that you can't get rid of it.
As the saying goes, if there are more lice, I am not afraid of itching, and the more questions I have, the more I don't want to think about it, so my heart is much easier.
After walking a little further, I finally saw the light, this is the hall of the Phantom Gang.
The explosion of that year blew this place to pieces, and after rebuilding, they not only retained the original style, but also expanded it a lot.
There were a lot of people standing in the lobby dressed in the same clothes as us, and I think these were the passengers of the other cruise ships we saw at sea.
There are quite a lot of people, densely packed, and the large hall is almost occupied.
Familiar people are talking to each other, and unfamiliar people are standing coldly and not saying a word.
Some of them are short-tempered, calling and calling, saying that no one comes out to say anything, and some are calm and don't say a word, but you can see many complicated looks in his eyes.
Our team is probably the most inconspicuous, but also the most ordinary, without any high-level equipment, and they are not on the same level at all.
"Master, those people asked us to come here, and there was not a single guard around, why didn't these people break in?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.
That's a good question.
"Do you remember the note that Long Aotian and the woman mentioned just now? These people didn't dare to break in, which confirmed what they said before. I suspect that all the teams here, not including us, were threatened with the note, so they didn't dare to act rashly. ”
"Suck - since all the teams have received the threat of the note, why haven't we?" Lu Xiaofeng asked again.
This question is also something I have never been able to figure out, and I even recalled the events of those few days, and in my memory, there was indeed no note.
Think about it, since it is a note that threatens others, it will definitely be placed in a very conspicuous position.
After I found out that Ji Muqing and the others had an accident, I didn't look for clues at home, but I didn't find anything. So I'm pretty sure they didn't leave me a note.
When everyone gets the note and you don't, it's not normal.
These things are weird from the beginning, there are too many questions, one more question, and I don't bother to think about it.
Since everyone is waiting here, let's just wait.
About ten minutes later, many Phantom Gang members suddenly appeared from the walls on both sides, and this scene immediately caused the exclamation of those present.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
"It's incredible!"
I smiled and lowered my voice and said to them, "There are doors on the walls, and they have invisible wires falling from them. ”
In other words, this is another trick.
