Chapter 274: The Iron Behemoth (I)
Opening his eyes, Gu Qi took a deep breath and looked out of the car.
The car was driving on a forest road, and in late autumn and early winter, the trees on the side of the road had lost their leaves, and in the dark night they were like monsters with teeth and claws, threatening to pounce.
Hearing Gu Qi's inhalation, Kenji Sakura, who was driving, glanced back and asked, "Don't sleep for a while?" ”
"No, change hands." Gu Qi released three chains, wrapped around the steering wheel, accelerator and brake, and sat in the middle of the rear seat, where he could see the road ahead.
Kenji Sakura let go of the steering wheel, retracted his feet, raised his hand and stretched, yawning as loud as a lion's roar.
"It's noisy!" Miao Yi in the passenger seat poked her head out of her backpack and expressed her strong dissatisfaction.
Kenji Sakura smiled, took Miao Yi out of his backpack, crumpled it into a ball, stuck it on his face, and shook his head quickly.
"Disgusting!" Miao Yi struggled hard, but unfortunately couldn't get out of Kenji Sakura's claws.
"After washing my face, I'm going to wring the towel." Kenji Sakura held Miao Yi's back and let it face the sky on all fours.
"You dare!" Miao Yi stretched out her claws to scratch Kenji Sakura's face, but she couldn't reach it, and she couldn't turn it over, and its back was glued.
"Don't you screw it? That's sealed with mucus to prevent seedlings and dust. Kenji Sakura laughed sinisterly.
"There is a situation." Gu Qi interrupted their play.
Kenji Sakura and Miao Yi calmed down at the same time, motionless, listening intently to the movement.
After calming down, what they heard was mainly the sound of the engine, from this car, Q7 is a powerful four-wheel drive SUV, the engine sound is not small, their car is tattered, the sound insulation effect is not good, and it is very clear.
But in the sound of the engine, there is also the sound of "dangdang, dangdang". The sound is crisp, like the sound of metal colliding, rhythmic, as if someone is ringing a bell with a hammer.
"The car broke down? In this wilderness, car repairers don't want to come. Kenji Sakura thought it was the sound of parts loosening.
Gu Qi listened to that sound, first slowed down the speed, then increased, shook his head and said: "The rhythm is always the same, it should have nothing to do with the engine and transmission shaft." ”
"Well, in which direction is the sound source?" Kenji Sakura put Miao Yi back in his seat. He couldn't tell where the sound was coming from, and this kind of thing was more powerful than cats.
Miao Yi listened to her ears for a while, and said, "I can't hear it either, it seems to be ringing in my ears." ”
"That's ability." Kenji Sakura looked at Gu Qi.
Gu Qi now has two choices, one is to stop the car to check the situation and figure out the situation before leaving, and the other is to stay vigilant and move on.
Normally, he would choose one. Be careful to drive the "car" for 10,000 years, carelessness may invite disaster, but now it is an abnormal situation, they stop. After that, he may be immediately overtaken by countless prayer masters, and then there will be a hard battle.
So Gu Qi didn't stop, just said, "Don't sleep yet, pay attention to the change in sound." Let's talk about changes when there are changes. ”
He kept the car at sixty yards, reacted to any accident and kept the engine sounding consistent. Easy to hear.
Kenji Sakura and Miao Yi didn't move, they sat quietly, closing their eyes and listening to the sound.
Ten minutes passed, and the sound of "Dangdang" not only did not disappear, but became clearer, and the sound was a little louder than before.
"You can't be trying to annoy us with this sound, are you? It's so rhythmic, you can still fall asleep if you're really sleepy, and if the sound is irregular, it's even more torturous. Kenji Sakura said with a sigh.
Miao Yi opened her mouth, but she didn't say it, she originally wanted to talk about the "death knell", but her ability to set up a flag by herself was too strong, so forget it.
"The sound is not supposed to be used to affect us, and it slowly gets louder, indicating that something is approaching." Gu Qi continued to drive, while holding two small mirrors on both sides of him with chains, using them as rearview mirrors.
After another ten minutes, in addition to the crisp sound of "dangdang", there was another sound of "clang, clang", which was also the sound of metal colliding, but it was much duller, intertwined with the sound of "dangdang", which was very annoying.
"Trains?" Miao Yi immediately heard that this was the sound of the train wheels running over the seams of the rails, and everyone who had been on the train should be familiar with it, and the sound of "dangdang" should be the sound of the clock hanging on the front of the old-fashioned steam locomotive.
Kenji Sakura looked at the front, and then at the sides, and couldn't even see the shadow of the rails, how could there be a train in this place?
"It's definitely not a real train, otherwise the bell can't have been heard so early, get ready." Gu Qi frowned slightly.
"It's not like those prayer masters are chasing us on the train of power condensation, right?" Kenji Sakura picked up the backpack on the side, opened the bag, let Miao Yi in, and put the backpack on his shoulder.
Gu Qi thought for a while and let go of the accelerator: "No, in that case, there is no need to ring the car bell, and let us hear it so early, but for the sake of safety, we still parked ......"
Before he finished speaking, he slammed on the accelerator again.
A round bright spot appeared behind them, like a full moon, and approached them at a terrible speed, which was the headlight of the front of the train.
When I released the accelerator, the speed of the car dropped to fifty-two yards, and when I saw the headlights, I stepped on the accelerator, and the speed only increased to fifty-five yards, and I was caught up by the train.
Gu Qi only had time to release the chain and wrap it around Kenji Sakura's body, shrinking up and hugging his head; Kenji Sakura also saw the headlights through the rearview mirror, and all he could do was hold the backpack in his arms, let out a layer of slime, and bury his face in the backpack.
The train was long, but it wasn't solid, and instead of knocking Q7 into a small ball of scrap metal, it went straight through it, and the uncontrolled Q7 skewed to the side of the road and crashed into a tree.
Then the train began to whistle, deafeningly deafening, like a steel beast that had just preyed on its prey.
…………
Opening his eyes, Gu Qi saw the wooden compartment siding, he sat in the middle of a double row of seats, the design of the chair was very good, and it was very comfortable to sit on.
Kenji Sakura sat on the left side of the two-row seat in front of him, looked up, and looked around blankly.
They were in the same position as they were in Q7, as if someone had suddenly pulled the car into a train, and neither of them had any injuries.
"It's ......" Kenji Sakura let go of the backpack in his arms, unzipped it, and Miao Yi poked her head out of it.
"It's like a train is pulling us in." Gu Qi covered his body with a layer of chain mail and looked out the window.
Everything outside the window was rapidly receding, too fast to see, and the train was moving straight ahead, ignoring all formations and obstacles.
The "dang" sound of the bell has disappeared, but the "clang" sound of the wheels running over the seams of the rails is still continuous, very rhythmic.
"There's no one around, I'll try it with a soul search." Miao Yi jumped onto Kenji Sakura's shoulder, first observed the surrounding situation, and was about to release the cat shadow.
"No, it's an unfamiliar environment, and it's not something that exists in reality, don't let out the cat shadow first, so as not to have an accident." Gu Qi stopped Miao Yi and stood up.
Under the feet is a high-grade carpet, stepping on the soft cotton, very comfortable, the roof is lit up, the lights are bright, reading is not a problem.
There are doors at both ends of the carriage, and the word "10" is written on the door, which should be the carriage number.
Kenji Sakura also stood up, first wrapped his fist in slime, and punched the window, but did not break it.
Gu Qi stood in the aisle in the middle of the seat and looked at the doors in front and behind the carriage, there was no window on the door, so he couldn't see the situation in the front and rear carriages.
He also unleashed his chains to strike the siding, roof, windows, and floor of the carriage, much stronger and harder than Kenji Sakura's fist, and equally unable to destroy them.
"I'm afraid it's a moving cage." Kenji Sakura came to Gu Qi's side: "What do you think?" ”
Gu Qi thought for a while and said, "The sound of the car clock may be used to detect our location, and after detecting it, the prayer master can release this train and trap us inside." ”
"Release the train? You mean the prayer master who put the train is not there? Kenji Sakura frowned, this is a troublesome matter.
"I've roughly guessed what this train is for, and it's going to take some time to prove my idea, so let's explore it first." Gu Qi said, walking in the direction of the front of the car.
"Sell off." Kenji Sakura complained, leaving a lump of mucus on the ground as a mark, and followed behind Gu Qi.
The door at the junction of the carriage is not locked, it can be opened lightly and easily, after the door is opened, there is another door half a meter in front, and between the two doors is the junction of the carriage, Gu Qi released the chain, and then opened the door in front of him, and saw a car that was exactly the same, the only difference was the carriage number, which was the "2" carriage.
"Jumping so fast? Where did the middle seven verses go? Miao Yi stuck her head out of Kenji Sakura's backpack.
"There are three possibilities, one is that the carriage is hung up incorrectly, the second is that the number plate of the carriage number is wrong, and the third is that this door is connected to the second carriage." Gu Qi released the chain and wrapped it around Sakura Kenji's waist and said, "I'll go over first, if anything is abnormal, don't come with me, wait for me here." ”
Kenji Sakura nodded, took a step back, and looked at Gu Qi.
Gu Qi took a deep breath, completely wrapped himself with chains, and released several chains to explore the surroundings, and walked into the junction of the carriage.
Then he vanished, and the chain that held them together broke.
Seeing this, Kenji Sakura took a few steps back, while Miao Yi stared at the second carriage, hoping that Gu Qi would appear in the carriage.
Gu Qi didn't appear, and there was no sound in the connection and the second carriage, Gu Qi seemed to have evaporated out of thin air.
How can a person bear a broken chain with a smooth cut and a silent break, and a chain of similar hardness to granite? -
