Volume II, Chapter 7: Sequential Death
Wang Lei knocked on the pipe in his hand and said: "No matter what, the important thing now is that three people have died in a row in just a few days, and the order of death is exactly the same as the previous experience in the underground world, if this is not a coincidence, it means that there is some kind of power that wants to kill us people one by one, what we need to think about now is how to solve this problem." ”
It was a matter of life and death, and everyone's faces became solemn.
If it was only Wang Hao who died, everyone might only regard it as a coincidence, but three people died one after another, which seemed to be an accident, but it seemed that there was some kind of force controlling all this, which had to attract everyone's attention.
Pang Yan said: "Do you think this is not like the curse of the Pharaoh, I have read a report before, a group of explorers broke into the tomb of the Pharaoh, and then it was like being cursed, and they died one after another." Those of us who have entered the underground world of Robb Desert have also fallen under some curse? Or the Pisces jade pendant, or the descendants of the Yu Dynasty that may still exist as mentioned by Li Lao. ”
Xiao Ling stood up, watching the sunlight shine in through the window glass of the study, and saw that everyone was sitting or standing, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
Xiao Ling felt a little depressed, stood by the window to breathe, and then turned to look at the other people in the study.
He saw a ray of sunlight slanting onto the sitting Hu Shengzhe's face, and in the sunlight, the beads of sweat on his face faintly reflected a faint luster.
Xiao Ling looked at Hu Shengzhe drinking water with a big water cup, thinking that there might be something wrong with his body, he looked dark and thin, but he was always sweating profusely, like a patient, but Hu Shengzhe's physical strength was very good, and he was not inferior to young people.
Hu Shengzhe took a big sip of water, put the water cup down, and said, "Did you ignore a little?" We were able to come out of the ground alive, and at that time we saw the carved double pupil pattern on the side of the rock, and once guessed whether we were saved by someone related to the Yu Dynasty, if this is true, have you ever wondered what kind of people can survive in the underground world of the Luobu Desert? ”
Everyone else looked at Hu Shengzhe.
Zhou Kesheng raised his hand slightly and said, "You go on." ”
Hu Shengzhe snorted, and continued: "If there is such a person, then this person must be inextricably linked to the former Yu Dynasty civilization, maybe it is really the descendant of the Yu Dynasty civilization we guessed, everyone think about it, the Yu Dynasty is at least an ancient civilization five thousand years ago, can continue to this day, and can survive in the harsh underground world, how did they survive?" We've all seen that big black iron ball with our own eyes, so I don't need to say more about it, right? So do we have reason to believe that maybe these Yu Dynasty people have mastered some secrets of this black iron ball, or they can know how to use the power of this black iron ball, and because of this, they have the ability to rescue us. ”
Wang Lei groaned: "Old Hu, what do you mean...... Is this Yu Dynasty civilization the key? Finding them may be able to solve the dilemma we are likely to face now? ”
Hu Shengzhe nodded at him.
Pang Yan's hearty voice sounded: "I have another thought, that is, are we all a little nervous?" Maybe Wang Hao and the three of them really just had an accident, are we mediocre people thinking too much? But it's a false alarm? ”
Zhou Kesheng shook his head and said: "I don't believe it's just a coincidence, there must be something wrong with this, and all of us will be in trouble." ”
Song Jifu said: "Old Zhou, don't be too alarmist, if it's really like what you said, we will die one by one, then after the three of them, whose turn will it be?" ”
"It's your turn...... By the way, haven't the three of them arrived yet? Zhou Kesheng suddenly seemed to remember something and stood up from his chair.
Xiao Ling knew that what he said was that there were three other team members who were late because of traffic jams all the way on the way, and the three people who were supposed to arrive were all not here in the afternoon.
At this moment, Zhou Kesheng's mobile phone rang, he connected the phone, everyone didn't know what news he heard on the phone, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he became as pale as paper, without blood.
"Old Zhou, what's going on?" Li Zhibao had a trace of worry on his face, and asked with concern.
Zhou Kesheng's right hand holding the mobile phone hung down weakly, and said slowly: "I just got the news, and the three people who have not come have an accident on the way, the car lost control and rushed into the river, and when they were found and rescued, they had already drowned." ”
Everyone's faces changed, and among them, Sun Tao couldn't help but sigh, his eyes were round, and his whole body was trembling slightly.
"It's impossible, they are all master swimmers, even if the car gets out of control and falls into the water, it is impossible to drown......" He shouted in a hoarse voice, but Li Zhibao pressed his shoulders tightly to calm him down.
Zhou Kesheng looked at Pang Yan and Song Jifu and said: "The three people who just drowned are called Sun Yongguang, Wang Hui and Sheng Changxing, in the Luobu Desert, after Wang Hao, Jin Guowen and Liu Xin died, it was their turn. ”
Pang Yan and Song Jifu's faces turned pale.
The atmosphere in the study was deathly silent.
Only then did Xiao Ling know that the three team members who had not been able to arrive before were the three Sun Yongguang who were about to take their turn according to the order of death.
After a while, Li Zhibao still spoke, the old man was quite calm, and he said in a deep voice: "Old Zhou, under the Luobu Desert, we and the five of you seem to have experienced different events, like two independent timelines, according to the timeline you experienced, who will die next?" ”
Zhou Kesheng said slowly: "The next person to die will be Zhang Shuang, and then Wang Weiguo is missing, but they ......"
Everyone understands that in the end of the 25-member scientific expedition team, the 23 people came back intact, only Zhang Shuang and Wang Weiguo disappeared forever, and no one was alive or dead.
Li Zhibao's face was also a little unsightly, and he said in a deep voice: "They have disappeared, just skip them, and then then." ”
Zhou Kesheng said: "Then there is a team member named Lu Weize, he was killed by a trap, and his head was almost smashed off by a giant tree, and he was ...... after that."
After speaking, he suddenly looked at Song Jifu.
Song Jifu was startled and stood up from his chair, losing his smile on his face, which had been smiling all the time, and became bloodless.
"And then it's me?" Song Jifu's round face became a little distorted, and his voice trembled slightly.
Zhou Kesheng nodded, then sighed, took out a piece of paper from his body, and said: "Next, the order of everyone's deaths, including the cause of death, I have recorded them on this paper, if you are interested, let's see for yourself." ”
