Chapter 570: Silent Town
In the dark, there is no perception at all.
When I regained my vision from the complete darkness that lasted for a minute, I looked closely, only to see that my surroundings were not as bright as I had imagined, but rather a dark night.
Night?
After discovering this, except for the three newcomers in the team who were still shrinking into the crowd and staring in fear, the senior ones immediately observed the surroundings.
As far as the eye can see, although the scene cannot be seen far due to the night, the lights from the nearby houses and the windows of the houses clearly tell everyone the answer, that is, this is a small town.
Not only that, but as the observation progressed, everyone gradually realized that the environment here was similar to what they saw in the original video preview, if nothing else......
The answer is self-explanatory.
With the help of the surrounding lights and a general browsing of the environment, Yao Fujiang took the lead in concluding: "I think this should be the Senyun Town mentioned in the mission information, right?" A town in the middle of the hill surrounded by mountains, just ...... I didn't expect it to be night. ”
Yao Fujiang said, because he felt the same way, on one side, Peng Hu, who was carrying He Fei on his back, also nodded and echoed after looking around: "Well, it should be, you can see it through the shadows of the mountains in the distance, and the street we are currently on is also very similar to the street in the video, it seems that it should be that Senyun Town." ”
The dialogue is like this, and the fact is just as Peng Yao and the others described, as soon as they got off the train, the executors appeared directly inside the town, and the environment was indeed the remote town surrounded by mountains in the original video.
Sure enough, after getting the accurate news, and seeing that he was in a small town, the next moment, most of the people at the scene reflexively shifted their eyes, subconsciously looked at Peng Hu's back, stared at He Fei, and then ......
After seeing the other party's unconscious appearance clearly, everyone couldn't help but look confused, and fell silent, not knowing what to do for a while.
The reason why these people have such a reaction is actually very understandable, to put it bluntly, it is inertia, the inertia that has been cultivated for a long time, He Fei is the captain after all, and he is the commander and backbone of the whole team.
Pity......
Staring at He Fei, who was alive but unconscious in front of him, for a while, the senior suddenly felt confused and didn't know what to do.
Noticing that everyone was confused and silent for a few seconds, Cheng Ying came out of the crowd, turned to the group of executors and said: "Since the mission time limit is 7 days, then according to past experience, this supernatural mission is a medium-term mission, and the danger in the medium-term mission tends to increase one by one, and the mission has just begun, I think even if there are moths, it is impossible to attack us so quickly, so I think we should find a place to live first, and then discuss what to do next." ”
Seeing Cheng Ying come forward, most of the people were stunned, but fortunately, there were no stupid people at the scene, and what the other party said was indeed reasonable, so everyone nodded one after another.
The next thing is simple, seeing that the executors agreed, Cheng Ying immediately took the lead and rushed to the front along the street with everyone, the intention was obvious, since this is a small town, there must be many residents in the town, just from the surrounding houses that show light, it can be seen that they are not short of money if they lack anything, as long as the money is enough, I believe it is still easy to find a house where you can stay.
Facing the moonlight in the sky, with the help of street lamps, walking, I don't know if I suddenly thought of something, patted my head, Peng Hu went straight to the side of Cheng Ying and asked: "By the way, there are 10 of us here, I'm afraid a private house can't live, right?" ”
Unexpectedly, Cheng Ying was too lazy to answer, which caused Peng Hu to be puzzled, but fortunately, Chen Xiaoyao came forward in time to solve his worries, only to see him grinning at Peng Hu as he walked: "Hehe, Brother Peng, I found out that you are really awesome, sometimes although you think too much, how can you think of something useless?" The problem you just had was actually easy to solve, let me ask you, if you are a poor peasant, and one day a few strangers suddenly come outside the door and ask for tens of thousands of yuan to rent your house for a few days, then ...... Are you willing to take the money and go out and stay with your neighbors for a few days? Or do you just refuse the other person's request? ”
Chen Xiaoyao's words immediately attracted Yao Fujiang's unanimous approval, after all, Chen Xiaoyao and Zhao Ping had done this during their earlier trip to Yinshan, this trick worked very well, and there are really few people in the world who can withstand the temptation under the opening of money.
After listening to Chen Xiaoyao's explanation, Peng Hu suddenly smiled awkwardly at Cheng Ying, no wonder the other party ignored him, it turned out that his worries were meaningless, as for Chen Xiaoyao, after being proud, he turned around and secretly glanced at Zhao Ping behind him, in the field of vision, the man with glasses did not look around while walking like others, but followed the team with a silent expression, it seemed that he was thinking about something, and Qian Xueling was really close to Zhao Ping's side as he guessed, and when she walked, the woman's eyes were vigilant, and she grabbed Zhao Ping's arm while looking around, and her vision continued to extend, Following the figure of the two of them, there were three newcomers, and sure enough, the performance of the newcomers was really as expected, although they followed the team, the unique oppressive atmosphere of the mission world still surrounded them at all times, coupled with the first time to perform a supernatural mission, which invisibly caused several people to be uneasy, Fang Hai and Gao Jikun followed the team with panicked expressions, but the woman named Yuexiao was a little impressive, and he did not deny that the woman was also slightly nervous, but she did not show obvious fear like Gao Jikun and the others.
The above is the current situation of the team, after secretly observing everyone, turning back, Chen Xiaoyao smiled and whispered to himself: "Hehe, interesting." ”
"What? Chen Xiaoyao, what are you talking about? What's interesting? ”
I thought that the whispering was only my own, but the whisper of the young Taoist priest was heard by Yao Fujiang, who had been walking by his side, and under the puzzlement, his curiosity immediately attacked, and he did not hesitate to ask, but it was also in Chen Xiaoyao's arms.
Because he was a little uncomfortable because he was silent for a long time, when he heard the other party's question, how could Daoist Chen, who had long wanted to talk nonsense, keep silent? raised his eyebrows, grinned, and did not forget to glance at the left and right sides, seeing that a few people nearby had not paid attention to him, Daoist Chen made a strange little movement, approached slightly, stretched out his hand to hold Yao Fujiang's shoulder while walking, and finally brought his mouth to his ear and whispered a word, a sentence that made the flat-headed young man suddenly puzzled:
"Brother Fu Jiang, I have a suggestion for you now, that is, in this mission, you had better not be alone, and at the same time, don't stay with others, there are only two people you can follow, either follow Brother Peng closely or try to stay by Cheng Ying's side."
"Huh?"
Yao Fujiang looked up blankly, staring at the other party with a puzzled face, looking at the smiling face, and was about to ask a question, but Chen Xiaoyao stopped explaining, shrugged his shoulders, withdrew his arm, and then continued to walk as if nothing happened.
Let's not talk about what Chen Yao and the others in the back think, at this moment, if someone observes carefully and observes someone, they will find that Cheng Ying's expression, which is currently walking at the front of the team, is gradually complicated and gradually changing, and unconsciously, her expression is becoming more and more gloomy during the walk, and her brows are tightly locked.
………
The waning moon hung high in the sky, and the environment was unusually silent, except for a series of footsteps from far and near in the streets, the whole town seemed to be asleep, sleeping in this seemingly unremarkable wilderness.
At night, in the street, a group of people walked at a constant speed with the help of the lights of the houses on both sides, not to mention, if you don't stroll, you will find that this mountain town is really as large-scale as the video shows, everyone walked for a long time and did not walk out of the town street, Cheng Ying estimated that the whole town should cover an area of one kilometer, which is indeed much smaller than the conventional town, but it is still remarkable to have such a scale town in this group of mountains.
Walking around a lot, looking for a succession.
Soon, under the leadership of Cheng Ying, the group finally ended walking, stopped looking, and stopped outside a large brick house, there is no doubt that as described above, everyone has been looking, along the way Cheng Ying has always been looking for a house that can accommodate the whole team, the effort paid off, and after looking for a long time, I really found a house with a larger house.
As for this rather imposing house, its owner is either a village cadre or a wealthy person in the village.
Of course, it doesn't matter who the owner is, the important thing is that after looking for a long time, only this house seems to be able to accommodate many people, stop in front of the door, look at it for a while, and without the need for others to signal, Yao Fujiang volunteered to stride forward and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Correct......
"Wait a minute!"
For some reason, just as Yao Fujiang was about to make a noise by landing on the door, behind him, Cheng Ying suddenly stopped him, which not only attracted the young man to turn back blankly, but also attracted the puzzled eyes of the rest of the executors, seeing that everyone looked at him, pursed his lips, Cheng Ying said a sentence: "Have you noticed...... Is the town too quiet? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone collectively froze, and within a while, some people understood the meaning of his words, and at the same time, a sense of uneasiness also quietly hit at this moment.
Yes, Cheng Ying's meaning is obvious, that is, if ten minutes ago, when everyone first appeared in the town, they could only observe the surroundings through their eyes, then, along the way, as the observation deepened, Cheng Ying, who has always been keen, gradually discovered something, what did she discover, and found the strangeness of the town, that is, quiet, the whole town is too quiet!
Although it can also be explained by the fact that the town is not as noisy as it is during the day because it falls at night, except for the houses on both sides of the street, which can give people the feeling that there are people inside, the road is too quiet. There must always be some dogs barking and chickens crowing, right? After all, this is not a big city where pets are forbidden, but a backward and remote rural village, and it is true, but what about the facts? The truth is......
Along the way, except for their group of executors, not only did not see half a figure on the entire street, but not even a single animal chirping sound!
