Seeing that he agreed, Duan Xu turned around.

"I can only block them for three minutes, don't waste any more time."

As soon as Duan Xu's voice fell, Zhao Wei and Meng Yue immediately reacted, and the two of them didn't think much about it, and immediately got into the tree hole and went down to the ground.

Listening to the movement coming from behind him, Duan Xu's face was not emotional, and he quietly stared at the three ghosts in front of him who were haunted by powerful ghosts.

This knot is really powerful, it is completely one-sided chasing those three ghosts, its weirdness and horror are far higher than those three ghosts, but ...... No matter how many times it devours them, the "clones" of the three of Duan Xu will reappear.

This seems to be a kind of restriction, and the most that can be stopped by the ghost in the knot can only be stopped, but not eliminated.

It's a very simple logic, since the train will let the knot exist, it means that it will not break the existing balance, and a knot can erase all the weirdness, which is impossible. In the end, it's just a hole card for life, not a way to clear the level.

Duan Xu retracted his gaze and turned around.

He left the locust tree and continued his way up the mountain.

Zhao Wei said just now that he understood.

Actually, he just understood what Duan Xu wanted him to understand.

The risk of going underground to find the knot is definitely not small, if Meng Yue and Zhao Wei are arranged to go in for no reason, the two of them will definitely refuse.

But Duan Xu found a reason that they couldn't refuse.

That is, he is responsible for stopping the ghosts.

In fact, it doesn't need him to be present to stop the ghost, because the ghost in the knot is not under his control at all, and it makes no difference whether he is there or not. He can go out of the earth and go down to the earth.

But Meng Yue and Zhao Wei didn't know that although Duan Xu didn't say it explicitly, he was vaguely expressing the meaning that he needed to be present to control the knot and stop the ghost, if this kind of thing was said clearly, it would make people suspicious, and in this way, Zhao Wei and Meng Yue would be easier to believe.

Meng Yue's knot needs the presence of the opposite sex, and when it is activated, that opposite sex must be within her line of sight, which means that Duan Xu and Zhao Wei must have one of them follow her.

Duan Xu felt that he had done enough at this station, and the position of the connection was all locked by him, and it was time for Zhao Wei to make a little contribution.

And more importantly, he noticed Zhao Wei's expression.

Zhao Wei seems to ...... Eyeing him.

Although Duan Xu knew that this "targeting" was not malicious, this kind of dependence should not appear.

In this kind of place, Duan Xu himself does not have the confidence to absolutely survive, how can he keep Zhao Wei?

Even if I saved him once, what about the next time?

It is impossible for Zhao Wei to arrive at every stop at the same time as Duan Xu, so the dependence and weakness in his heart must be eliminated, otherwise he will be in danger.

Duan Xu stopped and glanced back, the ghosts were still entangled with them, and at this time, ...... Three minutes have passed.

He hoped that what Zhao Wei said clearly was really understood.

If he could make up his mind and really do what Duan Xu hinted at, three minutes, plus Meng Yue's five minutes, it would be enough to get a knot.

Zhao Wei is a very ordinary person, so ordinary that Duan Xu can see his ordinariness at a glance.

If he wants to live in this world, he must not pin his hopes on others.

Zhao Wei ...... Your Enlightenment...... Is it enough? ”

Duan Xu muttered, the script has been written for Zhao Wei, whether to do that or not is completely in Zhao Wei's hands......

……

Meng Yue and Zhao Wei went into the underground cave.

This cave is extremely narrow, only one person wide on the left and right, and it will not be more than a meter up and down, and an adult can only bend forward in the cave, or even crawl.

Not only that, there was no light at all in the cave, and after Meng Yue came down, she turned on the flashlight that Duan Xu gave her as soon as she came down, and shone it forward after dialing it.

It's so damp......

A drop of water dripped down the cave wall and burrowed into Meng Yue's neck, causing her to shiver.

She and Zhao Wei hunched their waists and struggled forward.

"Is it three minutes?"

Meng Yue asked nervously.

"I didn't ...... No, right...... Not so fast, Duan Xu should be able to hold on for a while. Zhao Wei stammered a little, his nerves were highly tense, not only because of the words that Duan Xu said before he left just now, but also because he was walking behind Meng Yue at the moment.

In case of...... What if the three ghosts on the ground have broken through the obstruction and burrowed into the ground? He is the first to bear the brunt now......

After hearing Zhao Wei's voice, Meng Yue's heart calmed down a little.

She knew it wasn't three minutes yet, of course, but she always wanted to say something to distract herself.

She was scared, afraid that a flashlight would suddenly make a terrifying grimace in front of the cave.

Fortunately...... The cave was damp and dark, but nothing scary had yet appeared.

However, the more Meng Yue and Zhao Wei climbed forward, the more difficult they felt.

They had been embarrassed by the damp mud, and to make matters worse, the hole was getting shorter and shorter, from being able to hunch over at first, to crawling on their knees.

And with each step forward, the sides of both of their bodies will be rubbed against the wall, making unsettling noises.

The atmosphere of the cave ** is becoming more and more depressing.

Both stopped talking.

Even...... They became suspicious.

After all, it's all a conjecture under this locust tree, what if he's wrong?

Aren't they going to die in the ground?

No......

More likely, this was originally a conspiracy!

In order to get more days rewards, Duan Xu tricked them into sending them to death! Right...... He didn't come down himself......

The more the two thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong.

The more I thought about it, the more panic and fear grew in my heart.

Meng Yue was terrified every time she crawled, and she always felt that a terrifying ghost would pop up in front of her at any time.

"You...... Jue doesn't feel ......" Meng Yue couldn't help but speak.

"Duan Xu is lying to us?" Zhao Wei picked up what she didn't finish.

Meng Yue stopped, turned her head to look at Zhao Wei, and nodded.

"It's not even three minutes, it's still too late for us to get out of the way, and the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes...... If there really is a knot underneath, why would he let me take it? Meng Yue said a guess that made him uneasy.

"I can't see through him, his thinking is too out-of-the-box, even his personality is changing, he won't ...... It's a split personality, right? Maybe one of his personalities is good, but what about the other? Maybe that personality is deceiving us......" Meng Yue felt that she had vaguely guessed something, and said quickly.

Zhao Wei was moved by her.

He also had the same doubts in his heart as Meng Yue, and now that Meng Yue said this, he was even more puzzled about Duan Xu's behavior.

Maybe...... He really can't be trusted......

"Okay, let's go back, it's not too late for a while, it's just his side of the hole under the tree that there is a knot, and we will find out later, it's not too late to come back!" Zhao Wei finally nodded.

Seeing him nodding, Meng Yue also breathed a sigh of relief.

"You wait...... We couldn't turn around here, so we climbed back to the exit, and when we got to a place where we could stand up, we turned around again. Zhao Wei said.

However, as soon as he took a step back, a sentence suddenly flashed through his mind!

"The choice is up to you."

"That's not right! Meng Yue, I understand! Zhao Wei's brain was clear, and at this moment, he finally got rid of the restrictions of fear on his thinking!
