Chapter 620: The Law in Indifference
"No fog? This can't be, is there really something wrong with my eyes? Or am I really crazy? ”
Because it was too incomprehensible, at this moment, as the narrative was maintained one after another, the more Qiao Na spoke, the more panicked she became, and finally she simply held her head in her hands and muttered to herself, the color of confusion was overflowing, listening, Peng Hu and Yao Fujiang were both shocked, only Chen Xiaoyao was in a slightly better state, plus there were thoughts during the period, and he was silent for a moment, the young man moved, walked to the door to observe again, pushed the door again, and confirmed that the door did not move, Chen Xiaoyao slowly turned around, and finally comforted Qiao Na in a sure tone: "Miss, I can tell you responsibly, You're not crazy or there's anything wrong with you, and we can see the fog outside the door as clearly as you do, so ......"
Speaking of this, after a pause, he first exchanged a look with Peng Hu, nodded, and then asked with a solemn face: "So I want to know the process, and please tell us what happened during the period, this is not only very important to us, but also to you, and to all the people who are currently in the hotel!" ”
………
"This thick fog appeared out of thin air half an hour ago, the reason is not clear, I was startled when I first saw it, I was going to go out to see what was going on, but then I found that I couldn't get out, I couldn't get out anyway, and the hotel door was closed."
"I made sure the door wasn't locked, but the glass door that usually opens when pushed couldn't be pushed open no matter how hard it tried, and none of the guests could see the fog, and I thought I was crazy until the three of you ...... Is all this true? ”
Panicked narration, dazed, after Qiao Na finished narrating all the incident, opposite, the three executors did not say anything to comfort the blonde who was already very nervous, but after looking at each other a few times, they walked to the door of the hotel together, and when they looked around, they saw that there was no trace of image outside the glass at all, and the streets, trees, pedestrians, and cars parked on the side of the road were all blocked by the dense fog. It was exactly the same as the window in the presidential suite, for a while, the three of them couldn't help but be secretly frightened, in addition to secretly praising He Fei's correct speculation, they also completely determined one thing, confirming that the entire hotel had indeed been completely closed by a huge supernatural force......
If the fog is so obvious, why can't the other guests in the restaurant see it? If it is said that all the characters in the plot cannot be seen and only the executor can see it, it can also be explained by a special case of the rules, after all, the executor cannot be equated with the plot character, but in fact? In fact, Jona, the receptionist who is a character in the plot, also saw it, so what's going on?
Based on all kinds of puzzles, the three of them unconsciously fell into deep thought, and the thinking did not last long, and was interrupted after more than ten seconds, interrupted by a guest at the end of the meal in the back, and the person seemed to be leaving the hotel, attracted by it, and several people's attention was collectively focused on the person.
This is a middle-aged Caucasian man who is not tall, after eating, the man got up and left the table, Xu is more satisfied with the pizza just now, and he still croaks his mouth from time to time during the departure process, of course, these are not the point, the point is that the man obviously wants to leave the hotel, and at this time he is already close to the hotel door! Seeing the current situation clearly, Qiao Na instinctively opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something to remind, but she was stopped by Chen Xiaoyao on her side in time, and Peng Hu and Yao Fujiang did not have the slightest intention of stopping, but everyone stared at the front, focusing on the middle-aged man who was about to walk to the door.
A few seconds later, under the gaze of several people, the middle-aged man arrived at the door of the hotel and ......
Sudden mutation!
A terrifying scene that broke the hearts of the three Peng Hu and Joanna together:
At the moment when the middle-aged man walked to the door and was about to reach for the door, in an instant! A human hand stretched out from the ground under the man's feet, and dozens of miserable white human arms stretched out in an instant without warning!
said that it was too late, and as soon as a large number of palm changes appeared in the arm, he had already moved and moved, and he grabbed the middle-aged man's legs like lightning from the bottom up! As mentioned above, because it was too sudden, it was not until this time that the man at the door noticed the abnormality and found that he could not move, but unfortunately now he found that it was too late, just when the man just showed puzzlement and subconsciously looked down at the ground, the next second, a human head appeared, a giant human head, a huge head with a total volume larger than the car and two circles fell suddenly, and fell from the ceiling without warning!!
Yes, because the appearance of the head was too abrupt, for a while even the executor who observed from a distance couldn't react, although the reaction was not as good as the careful few people still barely saw the appearance of the head, and looked closely, as far as the eye could see, it was a woman's head with a cape, the face was hideous and terrifying at the same time, the mouth was bloody and red, and the corners of the mouth were as if they had been cut by a sharp blade before the mouth opened wide to break through the limit, not only that, but the suddenly drooping head was also connected to a long neck, And the overly long neck is just connected to the ceiling above!
Fast, very fast, so fast that no one could react, so fast that as soon as the huge head fell, its terrifying mouth covered the ground and enveloped the doorway, and just like that, it swallowed the middle-aged man below straight into his mouth!!
The man was eaten.
Eaten alive and disappeared without a trace,
As for the huge head, as it swallowed the man to deal with the prey, the head suddenly rose and retracted as it had come, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the ceiling above and disappeared completely.
In the end, there was emptiness, nothingness, a glass door, everything was as usual in front of the door, as if nothing had happened just now, and the whole process was silent.
Don't look at the descriptions, in fact, all of the above happened in a short split second, from the initial arm grabbing the man, to the huge head devouring it, and then the head disappearing, the whole process took less than two seconds!
Until the head disappeared, until the mutation disappeared, not far away, the executor and the receptionist remained sluggish and solidified.
After 5 seconds.
Dada, dada......
A series of footsteps came, and his body trembled wildly under the irrepressible monstrous fear.
The footsteps were made by Peng Hu and the three of them, and with the end of the sluggishness, and with the sudden return to their senses, the three of them staggered in horror like this, and collectively retreated backwards again and again! In the process, Yao Fujiang's legs were the first to be soft and fell to the ground first, one was unstable and sat on the ground, although Peng Hu did not collapse, but the actual situation was not much stronger than Yao Fujiang, during the retreat, the bald man also had weak legs and feet, and his feet were vague, fortunately, he was quick to hold on to a pillar on his side in time to barely stabilize his body, otherwise there would be no problem to collapse to the ground, Chen Xiaoyao also knelt on one knee and panted after taking seven or eight steps back in one breath, because his legs were too weak, he couldn't get up for a while!
Yes, the above is the real reaction of the three people after seeing the horror in front of the door, and not only that, if you look at the three people up close, and look at the three people, then you will find ...... At this moment, whether it is Peng Hu, Yao Fujiang or Chen Xiaoyao, in addition to the cold sweat that broke out one by one, the faces of the three of them were as white as paper!!
It's scared, scared.
Don't blame them, really don't blame them, the scene just now is too terrifying and terrifying, and no one expected that the terrifying scene would be so sudden, suddenly caught off guard, even the well-informed veterans and Maoshan Taoist priests who have been immune to terror can't resist this fear, or this is the root cause of the three of them to react, at the same time, just when the three of them were shocked and afraid to breathe, the receptionist Anna finally came back to her senses from the 10-second stunt, the only difference is that the woman reacted silently after returning to her senses, Silent, neither as violent nor as vocal, as the executor, because ......
Poof.
The woman rolled her eyes and fell directly to the ground.
Jona was stunned by the scene just now!
Falling to the ground, unconscious to unconscious, Peng Hu was not in the mood to deal with the receptionist lying on the ground at the moment, but hurriedly turned around after gasping for breath, turned back to the other two and asked in a trembling tone: "This, this, what the was that just now?" With a huge head and a slender neck, could it be that the middle-aged man was eaten? ”
Listening to Peng Hu's inquiry, Yao Fujiang, who had not recovered under the shroud of fear, just shook his head instinctively with a pale face, only Chen Xiaoyao recovered faster and was in a slightly better state, but after a moment of silence, he smiled bitterly, nodded slightly, and put on an expression that was several times more ugly than crying, and opened his mouth to reply: "Sure, we all saw just now, that guy is 100% dead, and ......"
Speaking of this, Chen Xiaoyao nodded at the group of indifferent guests in the restaurant and continued: "See, the attack of the mantis is so fast, so fast that it has already ended before others except us deliberate observers have time to pay attention. ”
"That means ......"
"Well, while I don't know why these guests can't see the fog outside the door, what happened just now gave me a bold guess."
Hearing this, Peng Hu couldn't help but be surprised, didn't care about wiping the cold sweat, and hurriedly asked, "What guess?" ”
With the disappearance of the mutation, coupled with the passage of time, Chen Xiaoyao has basically recovered, seeing the bald man asking again and again, the young man got up on the ground, and said a paragraph with a complicated face:
"I think this group of guests may not really be able to see the fog outside the door, and in the eyes of these people, it is very likely that there are still people coming and going outside the door, similar to hallucinations, similar to blindfolding, and anyone who tries to leave the hotel will be killed by the stinger."
Although the words are complicated, in fact, after a little pondering, you can understand the meaning of Chen Xiaoyao's words, as mentioned above, the suspected earth binding spirit crab has adopted two ways to treat the living people trapped in the hotel, the first is to let some people see the ban, such as the executor and Jona, and the second is to let some people not see the ban, such as restaurant diners, not to mention the significance of such an arrangement, but one thing is certain, that is, the mantis has already been ambushed, once someone approaches the exit, the mantis will instantly appear lightning attack, It is then swallowed alive.
Yes, the mission information has made it clear that the mantis will not spare any humans in the hotel, so it is impossible for the mantis to allow a single person to leave the hotel anyway, and anyone who tries to leave the hotel will be attacked, which can be understood as ...... Whether it's the executor who can see the fog or the plot characters who can't see the fog, no one wants to leave the hotel one step anyway, whoever leaves the hotel will die, and whoever gets close to the gate will be attacked by the mantis first!
Putting down this passage and smiling bitterly, Chen Xiaoyao first reached out and dragged Yao Fujiang, who had been sitting paralyzed for a long time, and then stood in place thoughtfully, his mind ups and downs, his eyes staring ahead, staring at the hotel door.
After a while, the young man reached into his arms and pulled out a leaf, a silver willow leaf stained with red blood under the joint gaze of Peng Hu and Yao Fujiang.
"Whew."
With a long breath, he raised his hand to put the silver leaf on his eyelids, wiped it lightly, and reopened his eyes, and then the young man shifted his gaze to the hotel door again.
If you switch the camera to Chen Xiaoyao's personal perspective at this moment, then you will see the following scene:
In the field of vision, directly ahead, a human face appeared outside the hotel's rather spacious glass door, a huge woman's face large enough to occupy the entire door!
The face is hideously twisted, the corners of the mouth are bloodstained, and the eyes are all red.
The face of the human being was very similar to the huge head that had appeared not long ago, and at this moment, the face of the woman who occupied almost the entire door was motionless against the glass, staring at the hall, staring at everyone in the hall!!
………
Cecil Hotel's lunch time is generally between 12 noon and 13 pm, as early as Peng Hu and the three of them arrived at the restaurant on the first floor, it was close to the end of lunch, during which there were successively finished guests leaving the restaurant and returning to their respective floors through the elevator, and some of the people who were still stranded in the restaurant were mostly ordinary diners, who did not stay, but simply came to the hotel for lunch.
With the help of silver willow leaves, when he saw the huge face outside the hotel door with his own eyes, Chen Xiaoyao began to move as if he had figured out something, looked around the restaurant with fear, walked to Qiao Na, who fell unconscious, and carried it on his back, and then began to retreat, beckoning Peng Hu and Yao Fujiang to leave the restaurant, returning the same way as fast as possible, and running upstairs one after another.
Obviously, the restaurant is quite safe, and there is no movement outside the door for a long time, but the young Taoist priest is still anxious and anxious, urging a few people to leave as soon as possible.
Reason? No reason, reason? There is no reason, and Chen Xiaoyao himself does not intend to explain.
Next......
An incident happened, or rather a few executors had just walked on the front foot.
Just after Peng Hu, Yao Fujiang and Chen Xiaoyao, who was carrying Qiao Na, all left the restaurant with nervous expressions, and after about half a minute, if they deliberately observed the door, they would find that the huge face that was originally outside the door and clinging to the glass had changed slightly.
Instead of changing in appearance, it changed in position, because at some point, the huge face of the mantis had penetrated through the glass and passed through the door, gradually infiltrating the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel.
………
Run down the stairs and around the floor.
When the panting few people returned to the presidential suite on the 12th floor, in the room, everyone was eating, eating their own food, and walked into the room, Chen Xiaoyao first put a woman on the sofa, and then ran to the water dispenser with the other two to gulp wildly, drinking water frequently, obviously, judging from the fatigue of several people, nine times out of ten they ran up the stairs in one breath.
In fact, the reaction of the three of them was also expected by everyone, after all, no one dared to take the elevator, Peng Hu and the others did not dare, and it must be the same if they were themselves, but ......
Shifting their gaze and looking curiously, staring at the white woman who was leaning on the sofa unconscious, everyone instantly recognized the other party's identity, it was the hotel receptionist named Jona, but, the question was, why did this person fall unconscious? Why was Chen Xiaoyao carried here?
As mentioned above, when they saw Qiao Na, for a while, most of the executors, including He Fei, were puzzled, and no one took the lead in speaking during this period, not because they didn't say it, but they knew that someone else would give an explanation.
Sure enough, next to the water dispenser, with five or six glasses of water in succession, coupled with the slight reduction of fatigue, sensing the gaze of their companions behind them, the three of them looked at each other a few times, put down the water glass, Chen Xiaoyao turned around first, walked to the sofa, and then said to He Fei with a solemn expression: "Be mentally prepared, the killing of the mantis has begun!" ”
Xu had already guessed, as soon as Chen Xiaoyao's words came out, He Fei didn't have any special reaction, but scared Jia Chengli and Han Meili next to him, Gao Jikun subconsciously looked at He Fei after listening to this sentence, his eyes were full of expectation, and his appearance seemed to have pinned all his hopes on the young captain, not to talk about what the fat man had to think for the time being, seeing He Fei nodding his head, Chen Xiaoyao's chatbox opened, and told him and Peng Hu what they had seen and heard when they were on the first floor before, together with their personal speculations, and the result was predictable, as the narrative was completed, Everyone fell into an unprecedented state of fear, and even He Fei, who seemed calm earlier, couldn't help frowning and trembling slightly!
Yes, they never thought that the mantis would use the extreme method of cannibalism to slaughter humans, and the huge head and the strange manti-faced people had never encountered it, not to mention whether the other party also had other terrifying abilities, the lightning killing speed alone was enough to make people desperate, is this the strength of the Earth Binding Spirit?
Thinking of this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly turned cold, and at the same time, a word called creepy swept through everyone's body in an instant.
"What do you mean...... The seemingly frozen face of the mantis has been moving slowly, and as the face enters the first floor, none of the diners in the restaurant want to live? ”
At this moment, listening to He Fei's personal understanding, Chen Xiaoyao, who has always been serious in front of the matter, did not sell it, nodded and continued to explain: "Yes, the reason why I can judge this comes from two points, first, although I don't know how many ways to kill people in that mantis, but I am now sure that the speed of the mantis is very fast, and it is the best proof that a living person will die without a corpse in the first two seconds, as long as 'she' is willing,' She can quickly slaughter everyone in the restaurant in the same way, and the second comes from our Taoist's unique understanding of supernatural phenomena, for example, the huge face of the mantis that clings to the door is a typical phenomenon of the mantis sealing the door, generally speaking, it doesn't take long for the mantis to penetrate and enter slowly after sealing the door, and finally kill the inside, because the initial stage of the mantis sealing the door is relatively slow, originally the three of us could stay on the first floor and observe patiently, but ......"
At this point, Chen Xiaoyao was inexplicably paused, and then under the gaze of He Fei and others, he shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Since I don't dare to guarantee that the speed of the mantis will be so fast that it won't even leave us a chance to escape after entering the restaurant, for the sake of safety, I urged everyone to leave and didn't leave the risk." ”.
The young Taoist priest decisively admitted that he did not dare to take risks, in fact, He Fei agreed with this, nodded and directly agreed: "Well, you did the right thing, you can stay in Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, after all, your own life is the most precious, for the time being, there is no need for us to take a special risk to verify a very likely guess, if the above speculations are all true, then, from your description, I have drawn some conclusions." ”
Seeing that the college students seemed to be about to talk about the key points, everyone present turned their heads one after another, cast curious eyes, and felt the gaze around them, He Fei had no ink, looked around the sides, and his vision swept over a famous executor one after another, and finally leaned over a little and said a seemingly complicated sentence: "Let's put aside why the receptionist Jona can see the dense fog like the executor, I can draw a preliminary conclusion from the face alone, the conclusion is that the mantis is indeed killing indiscriminately, but it belongs to a certain order of indiscriminate killing, and the so-called order refers to...... Floor! ”
I don't know if I heard something during the period, the college student's voice fell, and Peng Hu and Yao Fujiang, who had just sat back on the sofa, were instinctively stunned, and then got up and left their seats and said in unison: "The order of the floors?" ”
The matter is not over, with the conclusion made, looking around again, in addition to Peng Yao and the two reacted violently, the young man quickly noticed that Cheng Ying who was sitting on his side and Zhao Ping, who was on the opposite side, also showed surprise on their faces, and their eyebrows were thoughtful, especially Zhao Ping, during He Fei's pause, the man also deliberately glanced up at Chen Xiaoyao, as if he wanted to see the other party through completely, as for Chen Xiaoyao......
Seeing that the man with glasses was staring at him silently, for some reason, the young Taoist priest's true nature was exposed, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he directly showed a bright smile to the man with glasses.
