Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Eighth Floor
"But you're really good!" The horse said to me admiringly behind the bull's head. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When I was sober, the old bastard told me about it, and I was a little surprised at it, but I took it for granted. But when I saw Ma Mian's admiring expression, I was a little embarrassed, after all, it was not my own strength, and I naturally didn't feel that there was a place to be proud of.
"Are you really going to deal with those guys?" The humble bull looked at us in disbelief.
"Yes, I have to go." I said firmly.
According to the information that the judge told us, Zhu Ke would definitely be able to be found in the eighth layer of the underworld. The people who live on this floor are some ordinary ghosts who can't be in the ordinary, and in layman's terms, they are office workers.
The bull head led us to the eighth floor, and I looked at the sun high in the sky and couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this underground?" Why is there still the sun. ”
Niu Tou laughed and said: "Brother, in your memory, you must be the first time to come to the underworld, in fact, each layer of our underworld has its own world, although the area of each world is not large, compared to your world, it is only a small town-like area, but although the sparrow is small, there is not only the sun here, but the sun will slowly fall when the time comes, and then the moon will rise, there is wind and rain, everything." ”
"And what's beyond the town?" I looked at the long yellow sand outside the town and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Yellow sand, it's yellow sand, endless yellow sand, you go out of the town and follow the direction in front of you, about half a day, you can walk to the back of the town." The bull head said proudly.
"It turned out to be spherical, too." I suddenly realized that when I first came to the underworld, I obviously followed the reminder to move forward, but why it took me so long to reach the Nai He Bridge, and it turned out that I had walked half of the underworld.
"I said, what the world is like, here is what it is, every world is spherical, keep walking and you will find that you have come full circle." The bull head laughed.
"And what about beyond this sphere?" I wondered.
"This—" The bull head touched his head and couldn't speak.
The old bastard pretended to be on the side and said: "Beyond the earth is the universe, do you know what is beyond the universe?" ”
I shook my head, and stopped asking the question that no one knew about.
Coming to the eighth floor, the inhabitants here are completely different from those on the first floor, they are all armed and walking in the streets, and it is obvious that they all have their own things to do. From time to time, we would see a pair of ghosts in modern uniforms with knives, guns and clubs in their hands passing by us.
Niu Tou took out the walkie-talkie-like thing on his waist and roared in his mouth: "Listen, all the soldiers on the seventh and ninth floors are on standby, all of them are gathering on the eighth floor, and the soldiers on the eighth floor are now lining up next to the elevator to assemble, and they are allowed to carry firearms, and they are allowed to carry firearms." ”
"There are firearms, so why didn't I see you use them when I was at the bridge?" I asked, a little confused.
"Although you are making trouble, you have not committed a crime, and in the first layer, we can't use firearms against any ghosts, because the bullets have a special rune to deal with ghosts, and they will do a lot of damage to ghosts, so we won't easily use them on ghosts who have just come to the underworld." The bull head said on the side.
"And do they have guns?" The bull head knows who I'm referring to.
"Yes!" The bull head looked at me seriously and said.
"We have a world of our own here, naturally, there will always be some darkness breeding, this organization appears silently, and his growth is naturally silent, since we found that we can't eliminate them without using all the power of the underworld, our conflict with them has faded, and this time, we are just responding to you, if you are in any danger within them, I can only say sorry to you, because we can't attack and can't save you, so you must be careful." The bull head said to me solemnly.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." I looked at the bull head and said.
The old bastard and I walked towards the middle of the eighth layer step by step, according to the information given to us by the judge, this organization has already entrenched in the underworld from the second to the ninth layer, but only the eighth layer will put the hostages they captured here and detain them collectively, so we will go directly to the eighth layer.
"The personnel of those killer organizations all have official identities, and when they don't have a mission, they are just like you, it may be an ordinary ghost who passes by us, lives in an ordinary place, and some may even hold some important positions on the eighteenth floor, plus why these forces can't be eliminated for so many years, I have a guess of my own, this organization must be formed by the high-level personnel of the underworld themselves." The old bastard and I had already arrived in the middle of the town on the eighth floor, and I was sitting in a coffee house with the old bastard listening to the old bastard talk about the organization.
"Why is there a coffee house here, if the underworld is a big company, and the first to the tenth floor is a staff dormitory, why is there a coffee house and a supermarket here?" That's where I wondered.
"Can you not talk about these inconsequential things, there are only people living in your staff dormitory? What big company doesn't have recreational facilities in its staff dormitories right now? Don't have an internet café? There is no supermarket. The old bastard clutched his forehead and said to me with a bit of a headache.
"Look, someone's coming out." I pointed to the ghost dressed in black.
Opposite the café is a billiard room, and this billiard room is the headquarters of the killer organization on this floor. There are a lot of boring ghosts in it that are idle on vacation, which invisibly adds a lot of difficulty to me and the old bastard.
"You have to find a way to get those boring ghosts out of the billiard room, otherwise you will be in trouble if you are accidentally injured in the fight." I said to the old bastard.
"There's no need." The old bastard sipped his coffee and watched as the closure sign had been hung up, and the ghosts who had been bored on vacation had been kicked out, and they were there complaining about something together.
The old bastard looked at me with a smile: "Sure enough, they received the news that someone was going to make trouble here, and they were about to clear the store." ”
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up." I got up a little impulsively, because the movement was so loud, I spilled my coffee all over the table.
"Hey, be careful, no, you can't disrespect these coffees just because they're spirits." The waiter, barista, and boss saw me wasting coffee like this, and stepped forward angrily.
I listened to the boss's count with some embarrassment, but my eyes were still looking at the billiard room opposite, until the last ghost left the billiard room, and the staff of the billiard room entered the billiard room and closed the door tightly.
The old bastard said to me, "Now, it's time to do it." ”
