Chapter 59: Shadow
Bai Ling didn't find the van, after hearing the gunshots in the village, Bai Ling realized that something must have happened in the village, she immediately ran from the same way to the place where the gunshots occurred, and when she arrived at Li's house, she saw another van speeding away, and a few people behind were like those people at the entrance of the village, fighting each other, and they all fell to the ground after a while. Bai Ling thought about it, she had already roughly guessed what was going on, she didn't stop or chase after the van that ran away, but quickly entered Li's house.
The room was pitch black, there was no movement, Bai Ling turned on the flashlight and came to the room at hand first, and before she entered the house, she asked a strong smell of blood, and when she arrived at the door of the house, the scene inside was almost the same as outside. Bai Ling came to another room, and she saw that the cabinet at the entrance of the tunnel had been removed, and there were several layers of thick wooden boards on it. Bai Ling walked over and knocked the wooden board a few times with his hand.
"Knock knock... Knock··· Knock knock · Knock..."
Bai Ling listened to it for a while, and after a while, a voice came from below.
"Knock... Knock knock knock · Knock··· Knock knock..." Hearing this voice, Bai Ling's heart finally let go, she knew that we were fine. Bai Ling quickly went out and found a shovel, and then it took a long time to pry open the wooden plank above, and the wooden door leaked out of the tunnel. Bai Ling knocked a few times according to the code, and after a while, the wooden board at the entrance of the tunnel was opened, and Bai Ling immediately jumped down.
"Sister Ling, are you okay?" Gu Xiaofei hurriedly asked Bai Ling.
Bai Ling nodded.
I have continued to ask, "The people above?" ”
Bai Ling frowned and replied, "If I'm not mistaken, it is estimated that most of them are dead?" ”
Gu Xiaofei was very surprised when he heard this, and he asked a little timidly, "Sister Ling, it's all you······"
"Stinky boy, do you really think of me as a murderer?" Bai Ling glared at Gu Xiaofei.
After speaking, Bai Ling looked at me again and asked, "Nothing happened to you down there, right?" ”
"It's a little bit of a situation, so let's talk about what happened above, right?" I said to Bai Ling.
Bai Ling nodded and briefly said what happened outside, although Bai Ling told what happened outside without any expression, but everyone we listened to was a little shocked.
"It's the cuckoo, it's the ghost of the cuckoo, the cuckoo is still there!" Wufu, who was sitting next to Wang Jianguo, who was already asleep, said.
None of the people present were Fan Bo him, because there was really no explanation for such a thing except for hitting a ghost.
"And what do you see?" I asked Bai Ling.
Bai Ling shook her head, indicating that there was no special discovery, and the implication was that she didn't see any ghosts.
"So we're going to rush out now?" Gu Xiaofei in the back said.
Bai Ling immediately said: "No, I'm afraid that you are in danger?" ”
"Sister Ling, didn't you say that there were only two or three of those people left who ran out? What if they dare to take us? Sister Ling, isn't it more than enough for you to clean them up alone? Gu Xiaofei said a bunch of words in a row.
"Sister Bai Ling is afraid that if we go out, we will meet that too!" Xiao Mao, who hasn't spoken much, said suddenly.
Bai Ling nodded after hearing this, glared at Gu Xiaofei again, and said, "Don't have a brain!"
We all gathered in this secret room again, just in case, I asked Gu Xiaofei to resist the entrance of the tunnel above.
The smoke in the chamber had faded, but it still didn't smell good, and it was all dust, so we made the wooden bed simple and squeezed it all here. I thought for a moment and then told Bai Ling about what had happened during the time we were going to have here.
Originally, Bai Ling and I planned that she sneak out first, and at night we tried to rush out with the outside, but the first thing we didn't expect was that they actually burned the warehouse while releasing smoke into the tunnel, and now the collapsed shelves of the warehouse have covered the tunnel entrance in thousands of ways, and it is impossible to go up from there.
At that time, when the people above had just let out the smoke, the choking smoke quickly poured in, there was nothing to cover this secret room, and after a while, it was covered with smoke, and I saw that if we were guarding here, we would be choked to death in less than half an hour, and now we can only extend to the depths of the tunnel. Wufu carried Wang Jianguo on his back, I led the way in front, Gu Xiaofei and Xiaomao Palace, and our group quickly evacuated to the depths of the tunnel. We walked through this tunnel before, and after walking for a while, we saw the iron door, and then there was a "squeak" sound inside, and the sound of hitting the door, I thought that it must be that there must be smoke in the mouse hole, and those big rats are also afraid of smoke, and they are scurrying around.
I don't have time to think about it now, because the smoke behind us is getting bigger and bigger, and we walk towards another fork in the road, and not far in front should be the big cave, which is the same cave where we found Gu Xiaofei and we almost all died inside. I felt like I was getting to the big cavern when I felt something was wrong.
After a little further walking, we were about to come to the great chamber, and at last I realized what I was puzzled about, and I saw that the light was flickering in the chamber, and the oil lamp was lit again. At this time, the smoke from my mouth also poured up, and if I went back, I would be overwhelmed by the smoke, and I would only enter this strange cave, which was accessible in all directions, and the smoke would dissipate quickly, and as long as I went in and immediately extinguished the oil lamp, there would be no problem.
After coming in, I wanted to ask Wufu to put Wang Jianguo in the corner, and after I put out the oil lamp, we can temporarily avoid it here, but before I could say it, I saw Wufu carrying Wang Jianguo on his back, Gu Xiaofei and Xiaomao had come to the oil lamp with their hands left and right, and several of them were expressionless, after putting down Wang Jianguo, they lined up and sat there side by side, looking at the front with dull eyes, and when I called them, they didn't react at all. I know it's broken, and this time it's a little different than the last time.
I looked at the oil lamp, it was still the same light as last time, and I stood there without moving, wondering if I was awake or if I had entered a hallucination. When I raised my nose and sniffed it, I knew that I had entered a hallucination, because there was no smell of smoke in the space I was standing in now.
When I realized this, I noticed another terrible thing, when I looked up for the oil lamp and it was gone. I never expected this, because just now I saw a few of them sitting under the oil lamp, and I quickly picked up the flashlight and shone it in their direction.
Gu Xiaofei and the others were gone, and I looked around with a flashlight for a week, only to find that I was the only one in this empty cave now. What to do now.
My mind quickly thought, first of all, I must have been trapped in this illusion now, and then this illusion is different from the past, it has changed, is it artificial or what?
I must still be with everyone now, but I am "isolated" by this illusion, and the previous method was to just extinguish the oil lamp, but this time the oil lamp is gone. And what's even more dangerous this time is that even if we don't get trapped here, we will choke to death if the smoke that comes in can't get out.
At this time, I knew that I needed to calm down, and at this time, the panic of the mind was useless, and it might be counterproductive, so I thought of a solution.
I stood there and didn't move, I spread my legs, my hands were behind my waist, my left hand held the wrist of my right hand, and then I slowly closed my eyes, and just like that, I didn't think about anything, and tried to integrate myself into the environment, and now that I was trapped in this "illusion", I had to find a way to integrate myself into it, not to be swayed by the "illusion", as long as I didn't progress according to the mode that "it" conjured up, I would definitely be able to find a breakthrough.
I stood there, breathing as smoothly as I could, and gradually the concept of time gradually blurred, and with it the sensation turned, and I didn't know if it was my surroundings or myself, and after a while, I just felt as if I was really in the atmosphere, and I was one with my surroundings, and this experience was like never before.
"Anyone?" Suddenly, I felt a figure flash in front of me, and although I didn't open my eyes, I could feel it. Then I felt the time come back, and after about three or four seconds, I felt as if there was a light in front of me, followed by choking smoke in my nose, and I was completely awake, and I knew I was back.
When I opened my eyes, not far in front of me was the burning oil lamp, under the oil lamp, there were a few people lying horizontally, I hurriedly stepped forward and probed Gu Xiaofei's snort first, I took a deep breath, and touched a few other people, which was completely relieved.
By the time I woke them up, the smoke in the cavern had almost cleared, and there was no smoke coming in from the direction of the entrance, for we didn't know it had burned out.
When they woke up, they had no idea what was going on, they just remembered entering the cave and then they didn't know anything. I looked at my watch, and it was past ten o'clock in the evening, and we had been in this cave for hours.
I looked at Wang Jianguo's injury again, although it looked a little serious at the time, but now I see that my life is no longer in danger, and my consciousness is still very clear, but it is still inconvenient to move.
I know that this and the cave are not a place to stay for a long time, and the other few forks in the road cannot be entered casually, and now the only thing we have to do is to return the same way, and there are only two reasons why no one has come down for a few hours, one is that they really dare not come down, and the other is that something happened to the group of people above.
