Chapter 111: The Location of the Basement
So Zhang Hu, who came back to his senses, immediately hurriedly thanked Zheng Xuan, but when he finished speaking, Zheng Xuan in front of him shook his head at Zhang Hu, and then said to Zhang Hu, "You thank the wrong person, it was not me who grabbed your arm and brought you here before, it was Cheng Ying." ”
After Zheng Xuan's words were finished, Zhang Hu's face suddenly froze, and then he looked at Cheng Ying with surprised eyes, but after noticing Zhang Hu's eyes, Cheng Ying hugged his arms and directly mocked Zhang Hu, "Hehe, you useless guy, you were scared like that when you saw the ghost, I knew you were so cowardly, I didn't save you at the beginning and let the ghost kill you, so that I will be much cleaner in the team in the future!" ”
Although Cheng Ying was still taunting and attacking Zhang Hu, the next moment Zhang Hu took a few steps in front of him in Cheng Ying's somewhat surprised gaze, and then Zhang Hu didn't seem to hear Cheng Ying's taunt at him just now, as if he said sincerely, "Thank you for saving me!" ”
Cheng Ying was slightly stunned at first, then let go of her arms and spread her hands and said to Zhang Hu in front of her, "Okay, okay, don't be so solemn, I accept your thanks, okay?" ”
After Cheng Ying's words were finished, Zhang Hu's bearded face finally smiled...
However, the next moment, Zheng Xuan, who seemed to be pondering for a long time, suddenly said to the other two, "I really didn't expect that this third-layer ghost is actually transparent..."
"That's... Then Sister Zheng Xuan, what should we do now? ”
After hearing Cheng Ying's question on the side, Zheng Xuan paused for a moment, and then said to the two without hesitation, "Let's go back to the second floor!" ”
..................
At this time, on the second floor of the ancient castle, He Feizheng and Zhao Ping were standing cautiously in a corridor on the second floor, as if they were talking about something...
"Are you sure you want to split up?"
"What if you don't separate? The first and second floors have almost been carefully searched by us, and there are no others, and if we don't tell the others the location of this way of life as soon as possible, what will they do if they are in danger? ”
When He Fei solemnly told Zhao Ping his words, Zhao Ping's expression was a little complicated, at this moment his expression was white and blue for a while, it was obvious that his mind was in a state of war between heaven and man, yes, he didn't expect He Fei to tell him about the life of this supernatural mission, he didn't wait for the joy that Zhao Ping just wanted to express, but continued to tell him in the next second that the news must be told to others as soon as possible, so He Fei planned that he and Zhao Ping would act separately.
As for the purpose of splitting up, it is natural to find the other team members and then tell them where they are surviving.
The corners of Zhao Ping's mouth twitched a little, yes... Now he is a little worried about his future, although he has learned the location of the way to live, but he still has to go to the rest of the floor to inform the others, although the female ghost on the second floor is already very clear about the way to hide, but what if he encounters the ghost on the other floor?
Especially after hearing He Fei say that the ghost on the 3rd floor was an invisible transparent ghost, Zhao Ping's face became more and more difficult to see.
But at the same time, he also knew that he couldn't help but go! If he doesn't go, he's almost offending everyone in the team at the same time, unless he doesn't want to continue to mix in the team, so he really has to go.
After figuring this out, Zhao Ping first exhaled deeply, and after calming down, he said to He Fei, "Okay, I agree with your suggestion. ”
Hearing Zhao Ping say this, He Fei, who had been staring at him, nodded silently, he knew that Zhao Ping would definitely agree, and he also knew that Zhao Ping was a smart person who knew how to weigh the pros and cons, if he didn't go because he was afraid of taking risks, then if the rest of the people still survived, then Zhao Ping would offend a group of people for no reason, Zhao Ping was also a person who knew how to analyze the consequences and pros and cons, so Zhao Ping's answer just now was naturally expected by He Fei.
Then Zhao Ping continued to ask, "If there is no accident on the first and second floors, it is almost certain that there is no one else except us, then there is only the third floor and the basement left, how should the two of us arrange?" ”
After hearing this, He Fei was silent for a while, and then replied to Zhao Ping, "That's it, you go to the 3rd floor, and I go to the basement." ”
After he finished speaking, Zhao Ping was stunned for a moment, and then looked at He Fei with a complicated face...
Zhao Ping knows and understands, don't look at the ghost on the 3rd floor is terrifying, but after all, the ability of the ghost on the 3rd floor has been analyzed, and the way to avoid it is not difficult, that is, to move! As long as it remains in a state of movement, it will be basically fine, and the faster it moves, the safer it is, because He Fei has seen the flaw of the transparent ghost through oil painting before, that is, it will only attack slow-moving or fixed targets.
The way to avoid the ghost on the second floor is to hide in a high place, and the rule of dodging the ghost on the first floor is as long as it is not seen, that is to say, among the four ghosts at present, there are already three ways to dodge.
But there is always a 50% risk in dodging, so it will only be truly safe if you completely come to the location where the way of life is, so He Fei will want to split up with him to find the rest of the people and tell them the way to live.
But there's one thing... That's the ghost in the basement!
Yes, this ghost in the basement is the only one among the four ghosts in the castle who doesn't know about his ability, and he and He Fei don't know anything about this ghost, so when He Fei asked him to go to the 3rd floor just now, but He Fei himself went to the basement, Zhao Ping was surprised, he didn't expect He Fei to take the initiative to choose to go to the basement with unknown circumstances.
However, He Fei didn't want to waste time on this issue at all, so he immediately clapped his hand and said, "Since you don't speak, then it's decided, I'll go to the basement, and you will go to the 3rd floor." ”
So, under He Fei's decision, he and Zhao Ping officially dispersed on the second floor and walked towards different destinations.
At this time, Zhao Ping, who was thinking while walking forward, couldn't help but glance back at He Fei's back...
(In this cursed space full of death crises and deceit, you He Fei may really be the one who goes to the end...) )
............
The basement of the castle...
At present, Xu Hui's state can be described as terrified to the extreme!
Because since the invisible black shadow ghost left before, Xu Hui thought that he would breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect that every once in a while, the ghost would return to this slaughterhouse to inspect again, and also moved some corpses in the process of patrolling, and then divided the corpses!
Yes, don't look at this incomparably dark basement Xu Hui can't see, but her ears are not deaf, and at this moment... The sound of some kind of hard object smashing the corpse from a position in front of it was so harsh!
Syllable!
A corpse that had been dead for a long time was dragged away from the pile by the black shadow, and then placed the body on a dilapidated table not far away, and then the black shadow grabbed a hammer out of nowhere and slammed it into the corpse's head, and the corpse's head burst like a smashed watermelon in an instant!
And at the same time let out an extremely crisp - pop!
Therefore, although Xu Hui, who was hiding in the pile of corpses, could not see it, she could still know what the terrible ghoul was doing.
Some people may say, since that ghost is breaking corpses, what does it have to do with her Xu Hui?
That's because... The place where Xu Hui is hiding happens to be the place where the most corpses are piled up in the entire hall, so every time the ghoul is dragging the corpse near the pile where Xu Hui is hiding, then what Xu Hui is most afraid of is...
Who knows if the next time the ghost is dragging the corpse, the next one will choose to hide in the pile of corpses!?
This is a frightening idea, and at the same time, it is also the most realistic idea, because the next moment, Xu Hui heard... The ghost, who had just smashed a corpse with a sledgehammer, walked towards the pile of corpses where she was hiding!!
Da... Da... Da...
Da... Da... Da...
............
After He Fei tiptoed to the first floor, he first looked around with the help of the dim candlelight, and also listened to the movement, after making sure that there should be no axe ghosts in the back hall, the next moment he walked towards the corridor connecting the back hall to the castle hall...
After passing through several rows of light stands, He Fei finally came to this corridor again, and the reason why he came here again was because he always felt that the answer to the location of the secret passage in the basement... It must be among those paintings in the cloister!
Yes, He Fei has always thought so, since he can find clues about ghosts from the first three paintings, then he still believes that he can also find the answer to the location of the dark passage to the basement there, because the first floor is very large, and it is not realistic to look aimlessly, not to mention that in the process of searching, he has to always worry about the axe ghost who has been wandering on the first floor!
So when he came to the cloister again, He Fei cheered up and first carefully observed the surroundings, gritted his teeth after making sure that there was nothing abnormal, and then seemed to have made up his mind... In the next moment, he pulled out a cat's eye flashlight!
It's not that He Fei didn't learn his lesson, but the entire corridor was too dark all around, although it couldn't reach the point where he couldn't see his five fingers, but if he didn't use a flashlight, he couldn't see the details of the fourth painting at all, and the last time he just had time to take a look at the fourth oil painting with a flashlight, he was interrupted by the sudden attack of the axe ghost, so this time he had to look carefully no matter what! That's why He Fei had to take a second risk!
Smack——!
Under the illumination of the pillar of light, the fourth painting was finally clearly displayed in front of He Fei's eyes, and naturally, He Fei's eyes began to look at this oil painting carefully.
The picture in the oil painting is still all dark, there is nothing but black, seeing this, He Fei's brows wrinkled into a Sichuan character... He was a little incomprehensible, how could this be?
Then He Fei moved the light pillar of the flashlight away from the fourth painting and planned to look at the other paintings, but the next moment, He Fei suddenly noticed... When the strong flashlight light moved away from the completely dark painting, the next second, a symbol glowing white appeared in the center of the black oil painting!!
He Fei was taken aback, but then he understood, it turned out... It turns out that the symbol in the center of this fourth painting is painted with a special luminous pigment, which usually blends with the black around the picture, but when it is illuminated by strong light, the pigment that absorbs the light will automatically emit white light when the strong light leaves!
And at this moment, the white light in the picture formed a symbol, and it was also a very understandable symbol, He Fei understood it instantly, that is, an arrow pointing to the ground below!
I didn't expect the location of the basement to be directly below this painting!
To be continued...
