Chapter 41: The Devil's Cage
Shi Yuan's expression was a little sluggish. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Suddenly, he remembered something and looked back sharply.
The car is long gone.
"How...... What's going on? What about cars? Liu Tong's eyes widened in horror, and his tone was a little trembling.
"Perhaps, there were never any cars." Shi Yuan said.
"Then we were sitting just now...... What the? Where is the man who was hit and killed by a car? Liu Tong's eyes widened.
Shi Yuan shook his head, and his heart seemed to sink into a bottomless abyss.
This situation, he did not unexpected. He knew perfectly well that it was impossible for them to leave this village easily. For a moment, there was really a glimmer of hope in his heart, like a little fire flickering on the distant horizon in the dark night. However, the strange bus completely extinguished this fire. He even felt that the person he bumped into on the way was not a person at all, but just an illusion, and the bloody scene only made Shi Yuan and the three of them in fear, standing stupidly at the front of the car and waiting for the bus to arrive.
They looked towards the courtyard of Zhou Cai's house, and at this moment, An Fuqiang, the village party secretary, was directing several people to put Zhou Cai's body into a coffin. The custom of this village is burial, which is also due to the small population of Dark Crow Ridge Village, the cemetery area is large enough, and the villagers pay more attention to the tradition, believing that people should preserve the body after death, so this custom has been retained. Anytime someone dies, they can immediately go to the Peng family's coffin shop to find a suitable coffin and place it for burial. Zhou Cai was alone, and he couldn't find even a penny at home, and this fee was all paid by the village committee, and the coffin he chose was naturally the worst, basically just a few thin planks.
It's just after seven o'clock. The villagers saw Zhou Cai's body lying quietly in the coffin, and they talked about it, and many people shook their heads and sighed, but no one was sad.
"Shi Yuan, why are we back again? I want to go home, what should I do? Liu Tong's voice was full of anxiety.
Shi Yuan didn't know how to answer Liu Tong's question, because he already understood that they couldn't do without it. The experience just now is like a warning to them not to make unnecessary attempts again. However, Shi Yuan also understood, so he told Liu Tong like this, you don't try again, Liu Tong will not listen.
"Let's try again. This time, we couldn't get in the car. Shi Yuan said.
"Can't get in a car? Do you want to go all the way? So, how long does it take to get to Gravel Town? Liu Tong said.
"It's daytime, it should be faster, if you hurry up, it may be more than three hours." Shi Yuan said.
Liu Tong gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's do it." ”
Shi Yuan saw Luo Yasen in the crowd, nodded, and did not stop.
The three of them walked towards the entrance of the East Village again, and this time, all three of them were depressed and did not say a word.
Shi Yuan actually had a big question in his heart, it wasn't that no one had left here before, Chen Gang, who had asked in order to figure out the function of the machine in the glade, as well as Lu Junming, Zhang Ziying, and Zhang Jiangbin from the movie props team, didn't they all leave smoothly? None of these people have ever appeared in Dark Crow Ridge Village again, which means that they have not been teleported back here, nor have they encountered Chen Weijie's situation of entering Dark Crow Ridge Village in a loop, so it seems that they should really have left, right?
Shi Yuan's heart moved, and he took out his mobile phone. He kept Chen Gang's phone number, and then he began to call Chen Gang's phone.
"The number you dialed is empty, please check before dialing."
Shi Yuan's hand froze, and the phone was put to his ear, but he didn't put it down for a long time.
Empty number? Did he change his phone number, or did he ......
Shi Yuan didn't want to think about it anymore, sighed and put the phone back in his pocket. As for Lu Junming and others, he did not have their contact information.
"Shi Yuan, Officer Chen, I'm ......," Liu Tong said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Shi Yuan asked.
"I'm really anxious right now, and I thought, can we go a little faster?" Liu Tong said.
"You mean, run?" Shi Yuan said and looked at Chen Weijie.
"I'm also very anxious and hope to get back to Gravel as soon as possible." Chen Weijie said.
"Okay, let's run." Shi Yuan said.
The three of them ran. In order to maintain physical strength, I didn't run too fast. Soon, they were running to the road. Without a pause, the three of them continued to run east.
After crossing countless farmlands, ahead, some buildings finally appeared. Liu Tong just showed a hint of a smile, but suddenly realized that something was wrong, and his smile suddenly froze.
There, not a gravel town, the low, dilapidated houses look familiar.
Liu Tong's mind went blank, she suddenly felt that everything was lost, and the movement of her legs slowed down.
"Again...... Coming back? Liu Tong muttered.
Shi Yuan and Chen Weijie also stopped running, and the facts in front of them couldn't be clearer.
"How so?" Liu Tong shook his head in disbelief.
Shi Yuan looked at Liu Tong and said helplessly: "Give up, we can't leave this village." ”
"Did you already know?" Liu Tong suddenly realized something.
"I can't count as knowing. It's just that Officer Chen and I have tried many times, but there is no way to get out of here. We just thought, maybe you're not like us. However, the facts are in front of you, and you can't get out. ”
"And how can I get home?" Liu Tong said.
"There's no going back. Just like me and Officer Chen. Neither of us is from this village, we are forced to stay here. Shi Yuan said.
"Can't go back? Are we going to be stuck here for the rest of our lives? Liu Tong's heart was already full of horror at the moment, and she felt a little numb in her spine.
"I'll be trapped here all my life, and I'll admit it." Shi Yuan said gloomily.
"What...... What do you mean? ”
"You haven't forgotten what happened last night, have you?" Shi Yuan said.
"Of course I didn't forget, Kototama and glaze...... Su Glaze, as well as another police officer, have already ......"
"Yes, it's scary and weird, but you know, in this village, things like this happen all the time. Anyone, at any time, can die. ”
"What?" Liu Tong's surprise became more and more serious, and she couldn't believe her ears.
"Liu Tong, listen to me, no matter what your purpose is, once you step into the scope of the Dark Raven Ridge, it is equivalent to stepping into the cage of the devil, and all that awaits you is the terrifying shadow of death. But, I am now, maybe we are not powerless. I found a book, the cover of a book to be exact, and by following the prompts to complete one task after another, I believe that we will eventually solve the mystery of all this. Last night, it was one of those tasks. ”
