Chapter 40: Warning
It was more than 5 o'clock in the morning, and everyone returned to the gas station with a little unwillingness.
There is no doubt that they did not find an exit from here. Not only that, but even the indicator map in Du Dandan's mobile phone was not found.
It's not that close, and it took them about an hour on their pedalbikes, so it's hard to imagine how much time they would have spent on the road if they hadn't ridden a motorbike and just searched on foot.
Back at the gas station, everyone got off the motorcycle a little tired, after all, the road here is like a dirt road in the mountains and forests, potholes and unevenness, and the motorcycle is very bumpy on it.
"How could you not find an exit? It's impossible, I remember we came in from there. ”
Du Dandan is still puzzled by this situation, in fact, she is now very manic, and the "haunted" situation that she ignored earlier has gradually come out of the corner of consciousness.
"We didn't find it in such detail, so there must be no zài exit. Unless, that exit is farther from here. ”
Li Sixuan's face showed some disappointment, after all, she still hoped to find an exit in her heart, because if there was no zài exit, it would be very important that Xiao Mo's previous speculation was correct.
In that case, there would be only one path left in front of them, and that was to go to the various experience centers here to try to find the victims. Either find them, or find their bodies.
And the experience hall here is undoubtedly extremely terrifying, they are very likely to be chased by ghosts when they enter it, and they can travel relatively safely like before.
In addition, it is difficult to say what exactly is in those experience halls and what kind of difficulties they have, so it is naturally best to leave here without entering. Because I went into those experience halls. It's equivalent to throwing yourself into the net, and to put it mildly, it's a brain-dead person running to death.
It's very similar to Tang Shao and the six of them this time, it can really be said that they won't die if they don't die.
Only newcomers like Li Sixuan, and victims like Du Dandan, who don't know anything, will choose to complain at this time. On the other hand, the three old birds, the little follower, Chen Cheng, and Xiao Mo, did not have any unhappiness on their faces at all.
Especially Xiao Mo, the expression on his face was very calm, and he didn't seem to be expecting it. Or rather, he had long guessed that this would be the outcome.
"It's almost six o'clock. In my speculation, this incident left us with only eight hours. And now that half of the time remains, we need to hurry up and find those few people.
Do you have any good plans for the next search? ”
Although he had already counted it in his heart, Xiao Mo still asked what everyone meant.
"There are so many experience halls, it will be too time-consuming for us to look for them one by one, and most importantly, what can we do if there is still a threat in the experience hall?"
Li Sixuan voiced her concerns. But soon, Xiao Mo explained on the side:
"The question you just raised is exactly what I hope you can solve."
"But the problem...... It's not easy to solve. ”
"If everything is so easy to solve, then we are really here for tourism."
Xiao Mo's tone was a little sharp. The pertinence is relatively strong, Li Sixuan turned pale after hearing this, and then quickly shook his head and denied it:
"I'm not saying that there will be a lot of threats, but I'm afraid we won't have enough time. In case of a pass, it will take a long time to experience an experience hall. Then we won't have a way to verify it!
"What else do we have to verify?"
Hearing what everyone was going to do, Du Dandan, who was already a little dizzy, immediately raised an objection:
"Where are we going! It's all this time. Why don't we go back to the restaurant now, or go to the convenience supermarket, and then rest for a while, and when it gets dawn, the staff here will come here. ”
"If you're brave enough, you can go back to the restaurant by yourself, but we won't accompany you back."
Xiao Mo glanced at Du Dandan at this time, and then said in a cold tone:
"I remember when I first met you, I told you who we were and what we needed to do to get here."
Hearing Xiao Mo's words without the slightest emotion, Du Dandan felt creepy at the same time, and couldn't help but recall in her mind that when she had just met everyone:
"...... you're here to investigate the paranormal event?"
Du Dandan muttered indistinctly, and then she shivered with chills.
Seeing that Du Dandan was already conscious, Xiao Mo stopped talking nonsense with her, and as soon as the conversation changed, he continued what Li Sixuan had not finished saying before:
"I think you all know what it means to be in those experience halls. Strictly speaking, since we entered here, no one has been attacked by ghosts. In other words, the incident has been safe for us so far.
And this kind of "security" is obviously very abnormal, because the incident will never allow us to solve it easily, and then easily get through it.
Now, let's go back to my previous speculation.
The reason why the tip makes us go to find the victim is because we will only have a way to leave here if we find them and get their phones. In this way, this incident has become, let's go into those experience halls to find people.
Until those five people are found. ”
Du Dandan was once again isolated by everyone, and when Xiao Mo talked about this, she was sitting on the pedal and smoking in annoyance. From time to time, his eyes glanced suspiciously at the side of the group.
"On the map, I think there are only three experience halls. Is it possible that we just enter these three experience halls in turn and find five other people? ”
After Chen Cheng heard Xiao Mo finish speaking, he thought about it and asked.
"Not necessarily. For example, Xu Mengjiao, in Du Dandan's description, she did not go to a certain experience hall, but went to the parking lot. Looking at the video message she sent, the content in it is also very similar to the driveway in the parking lot.
So the real situation, it may not be that all victims have entered the experience hall. We should rule it out first. Those who did not enter the experience hall. ”
"So what are we going to do next?"
The person who asked this time became Li Sixuan.
"To minimize the time, we split our forces into two ways. All the way to non-experience centers such as parking lots and convenience supermarkets, trying to find victims. On the other hand, they set off to the experience halls to try to find the victims. ”
When he said this, Xiao Mo suddenly paused, and then he looked at Chen Cheng and the others:
"My little follower and I will go to those experience halls, Chen Cheng, Li Sixuan, you two will search for those non-experience hall places."
"No ......"
Listen to Xiao Mo's arrangement. Chen Cheng and Li Sixuan subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Xiao Mo interrupted them undoubtedly:
"Don't think it's dangerous on our side, it's easy for you two on that side. Remember the parking lot we passed by before? My instincts tell me that there is definitely not a good place in it, so you take no less risk than we do. ”
Chen Cheng and Li Sixuan glanced at each other, and after that, Chen Cheng did not shy away from pointing to Du Dandan, who was sitting on the pedal and smoking, and asked:
"What is going to happen to that woman? Let her follow us? ”
"Hmm. Follow you, but your own safety is the main thing. ”
Xiao Mo cast a trusting glance at Chen Cheng and Li Sixuan, and both of them could feel it, and nodded without saying anything.
Explain these things. Xiao Mo reminded the little follower and said:
"If you feel in danger and don't want to follow me, you can stay, in fact, they need your help too."
Xiao Mo's words made the little follower wave his fist unhappily, and gestured at Xiao Mo:
"That's what you said. Do I have any other options? ”
"Apparently not."
Xiao Mo couldn't help but be amused by the puffing expression of the little attendant. At the same time, the surrounding square forest sounded again.
"We'll get back to you when we come out of the hall."
Because Xiao Mo and the little follower couldn't ride, they were also very embarrassed to choose to walk. Because the three experience halls on the map are all northern. Therefore, Xiao Mo and the little follower simply followed the signs on the map and walked briskly all the way to the north.
Looking at the disappearing backs of Xiao Mo and his little followers, Chen Cheng fiddled with his collar, and said to Li Sixuan and Du Dandan:
"We're going to the convenience supermarket now."
Du Dandan didn't know the whereabouts of Xiao Mo and the little follower, so when Chen Cheng said their next destination, Du Dandan also interjected:
"What did they do, aren't they with us?"
"You just do what I say, you don't have to worry about their business!"
Compared with Xiao Molai, Chen Cheng's attitude is obviously worse. Du Dandan pouted uncomfortably, and at the same time secretly scolded himself in his heart, he shouldn't be boring.
The area shrouded by the gray mist is getting smaller and smaller, and now not only the little followers, but even Xiao Mo can clearly see more than ten meters away. It can also be seen that as the fog dissipates, their previously disturbed hearing and vision have returned to normal.
According to the indication on the map, they are about five or six hundred meters away from the "Labyrinth" experience hall. And this "labyrinth" experience hall, according to the distance, should be the building full of eye glass that Du Dandan saw at that time.
That is, the experience hall that Toyota entered later.
"We can now make an assumption that if the supernatural power of zài stored in this experience hall, or the ghost ability hidden in it, is the ability to make us fall into the "labyrinth", then how many ways can we do it? ”
Xiao Mo's silver hair swayed lightly in the wind, and the little attendant opened her beautiful eyes at this time, looking at Xiao Mo puzzled, obviously stunned by Xiao Mo.
"Don't ask me about this kind of thing."
The little attendant shook his head, and said dissatisfiedly:
"That's what you're supposed to think, I don't know."
"Since you don't know, then don't put on a posture when I talk about this that you don't want to hear at all."
Xiao Mo said a little unpleasantly to his little follower, and then he picked up the unfinished words and said:
"I think the ability of ghosts is nothing more than creating illusions. Because it is only when we are trapped in a hallucination that we can be trapped in one place and never be able to come out.
However, there is another possibility, that is, ghosts have the ability to pull our consciousness into another dimension, thus trapping our consciousness so that we can never get out of the "labyrinth". ”
Speaking of which, Xiao Mo talked about the key points:
"If we fall for an illusion created by a demon, will you be able to sense it? Or, can you cut us out of all the attacks? ”
"Sensing, isn't my specialty." The little follower shook his head helplessly, and explained with a gesture:
"Some I can sense it, but some I can't. Because some ghosts specialize in creating illusions. ”
"Well, then it depends on the situation."
Xiao Mo will take his little follower to the experience hall this time, in fact, this is also out of a protective psychology for Chen Cheng and others. Because entering the experience hall is undoubtedly much more dangerous than staying in the outside world, and the little time left is also forcing him to make such a choice.
However, Xiao Mo is not worried about anything, because he has already used a clone puppet, so even if something happens in the experience hall, at least there is one life left.
After walking like this for about four minutes, the qiē in front of him suddenly began to open up, and then revealed a slightly desolate land. And in the center of this land, there is a densely packed building, I don't know how many pieces of "eye glass" are inlaid with it.
Each pair of "eyes" above glowed with a strange blood glow, and it felt like they were blinking frequently.
"Can you see anything?"
Xiao Mo asked at this time to the little henchman who was staring at those "eyes" without blinking.
"Those eyes...... It's all alive! ”
The little attendant motioned to Xiao Mo that those were not eyes, but human heads hidden by fantasies.
Seeing that the little follower could see through the illusion acting on this experience hall, Xiao Mo couldn't help but feel a little more confidence in his heart, he pointed to the door in front of him at this time and said:
"Let's go over now, since you can see through its illusion, then there is no difficulty at all."
Following behind Xiao Mo, the two came to the door of the building, and after reminding the little follower, Xiao Mo pushed open the door of the building and walked in side by side with the little follower.
But in the next moment, the little follower was bounced out by an invisible force, and then the door of the building closed with a "boom". (To be continued......)
