Chapter 14: The Shadow Appears
"If Ah Dong is gone, then, where do you think Ah Dong will be now?" Huang Jundao.
"It's hard to say, because as it stands, a lot of things can't be judged." Wenhaidao.
"I have a feeling, a strange feeling," Shu Yao said.
"What does it feel?" Wen Hai and Huang Jun asked at the same time, at such a sensitive moment, several people actually tacitly agreed.
Shu Yao smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if it's correct, when we entered Adong's room just now, I always felt that it wasn't empty."
"Not empty? What does that mean exactly? Huang Jun asked.
"I," Shu Yao said here, hesitated.
"If you have any questions, just say it," Huang Jun said.
"I feel like there's someone in that room," Shu Yao thought for a moment and plucked up his courage.
"What? Someone? How can you feel this way? "Wen Haidao.
"You mean, Adong is still in that room?" Huang Jundao.
"I don't know if it's Adong, anyway, anyway, I always feel that there are people in that room" Shu Yao said.
"Is there any definite basis for this?" Huang Jundao.
"I can't say it either, it's just a feeling," Shu Yao said.
Huang Jun didn't speak, just looked at Wen Hai. Wen Hai saw Huang Jun looking at his side, and said helplessly: "I can't say it, the current situation is really a mess."
"Maybe the feeling is right," Huang Jun thought for a moment.
"Huh? What are your thoughts? Shu Yao was interested.
"Just like the people in the village, there is no sign of anyone leaving from the evidence shown so far," Mr. Huang said.
"So?" Shu Yao said.
"So, I think the missing people are still in place," Huang said.
"But why, we can't see them?" Wenhaidao.
Huang Jun said helplessly: "This is the problem we want to solve now, I am sure that they must still be in the same place, but there is no way to find them."
"So, shall we go back again?" Shu Yao said uncertainly.
"I don't need to do this, I don't have a clue now," Huang Jun said.
Several people came to the camp, but found that there was a noisy sound coming from the military camp in the distance, seeing this situation, for no reason, Huang Jun's heart sank, so he said: "It seems that during our absence, there is a new situation."
Wen Hai didn't care about answering, so he hurriedly ran up and said, "Xiao Xu, what's the matter, making a fuss?" ”
At this time, Xiao Xu came down from the observation post, his face was extremely pale, and he wanted to say something, but finally he still didn't say it, looking very tired.
"Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly", Wen Hai naturally saw Xiao Xu's strangeness.
"Professor Wen, shadow, shadow," Xiao Xu said breathlessly.
"Shadows? What shadow? Say it clearly" As soon as he heard the word shadow, Wen Hayden became nervous.
Xiao Xu wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything, and finally said helplessly: "Professor Wen, see for yourself, in that village, there are some strange phenomena"
Before Xiao Xu finished speaking, Huang Jun and the others ran to the observation post, and the soldiers above had already exploded.
"Professor Wen, then, what is that?" A warrior asked, pale.
Wen Hai took the binoculars and looked in the direction of the village, and after a while, his face changed greatly, but he didn't say anything.
"Wenhai, what happened?" Huang Jundao.
"You'd better see for yourself, I think, it's going to be bad this time," Wen Hai said in a snort.
Huang Jun took the binoculars and looked at the village in the distance, everything was calm in the small village that appeared in his sight, but Huang Jun finally found out that something was wrong, it was the scorching sun at this time, and there was no one in the small village, but the strange thing was that under the sunlight in his eyes, Huang Jun saw that the whole village seemed to be covered by dark clouds, but when he looked closely at the sky above the village, he couldn't see a trace of clouds, just when Huang Jun was strange, he found that the dark clouds under the village began to move, and sometimes scattered, sometimes gathered together, finally, Huang Jun realized that it was a shadow, a myriad of shadows, moving under the sun, but there was no one in the entire village, but there were countless humanoid shadows constantly moving back and forth, how weird and weird this situation was.
Huang Jun took the telescope to Shu Yao, but he fell into deep thought. Shu Yao's performance was more intense than Wen Hai's, and he looked at it for a long time as if he didn't believe it, and finally said, "Is it true?" That's, that's what"
"Shadow, it's a shadow, that herb picker has seen it before," Wen Hai smiled bitterly.
"But, but where are they? What are they? "Shu Yao has had countless adventures, but he has never seen such an incredible thing.
"Wenhai, did you find it before?" Huang Jun said suddenly.
"No, I didn't find these things before, just after Ah Dong told us that story, just after Ah Dong disappeared, these shadows appeared, and they looked exactly the same as the medicine pickers saw three hundred years ago, is it really just a coincidence?" Wenhaidao.
"Of course, it can't be a coincidence, I think there must be something wrong in the middle, or we made a mistake," Huang said.
"What's wrong?" Wen Hai was puzzled.
"We shouldn't investigate Adong's incident, it seems, what taboo has been touched" Huang Jun pondered for a while and said.
"So, what do we do now?" Wen Hai has no idea now, and even if he is a famous scientist, there is nothing he can do about the new unknown, except to show more curiosity than others.
"Professor Wen, can this phenomenon be explained by science?" Huang Jundao.
"Of course not, I have never seen such a peculiar scene, according to the principle of optics, if there is a shadow, there must be a material carrier, the shadow is just an optical phenomenon, not a living thing, but now the shadow can actually exist independently, and it is still moving around, I can't imagine it" Wen Haidao.
At this time, Xiao Xu also walked up and said with palpitations: "Yes, this is incredible."
Huang Jun looked at Xiao Xu and said, "When did you find out about the abnormality?" ”
"Just this morning, after you attacked, the sun rose, and we monitored the village as usual, and then, and then they appeared, at first one, two, and then, the whole village was," Xiao Xu said.
"Have you found anything before?" Huang Jun asked.
"No, never, we've never seen anything so terrible," Xiao Xu said.
"So, what about their range of movement since you discovered these things?" Huang Jun said that until now, he had to call them "these things", because even Huang Jun didn't know what these shadows were.
"At present, their range of activities is only limited to the village, but according to our observations, it seems that their circle of activity is becoming more and more wide," Xiao Xu said with a serious face.
"If, I mean, what happens when these shadows come into contact with people?" Wenhaidao.
"We can't take this risk, although I don't know what will happen, but it will not be a good thing, and we have to stop them from spreading, otherwise I am afraid that things will get out of hand." Huang Jundao.
"So, what should we do?" Wenhaidao.
"Be prepared to evacuate the surrounding crowd, according to this trend, I am afraid that it will change at any time" Huang Jundao did not have any expression on his face, and it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"By the way, we have to rush to Ah Dong's house right now, I have a hunch that there may be changes over there," Huang Jun said.
"A Dong's family? What will change? Shu Yao said.
"It's hard to say, in this way, Wenhai, let's take some soldiers to Ah Dong's house first and see the situation," Huang Jun said.
Wen Hai didn't say a word, picked some soldiers, and then rushed to Adong's house, because a few were anxious, this time it didn't take much time, but when Huang Jun and others arrived, they found that Adong's family was surrounded by a large group of people, I don't know what to see, Huang Junxin said badly, so he said: "Wenhai, evacuate people first, let's see what happened."
Wen Hai nodded, and a few fighters came out to evacuate the crowd. At this time, Huang Jun saw Ah Dong's wife standing outside the house in a panic, wanting to enter but not daring to enter.
"What happened?" Huang Jun asked.
When the woman saw that it was Huang Jun and them, as if she had found a savior, her expression became excited, but she immediately became afraid, "Shadow, shadow, I saw it, I saw it, they came, it turned out to be real."
"Huh?" Huang Junxin said that it was not wrong, but things were getting more and more difficult to do, and at that moment Huang Jun called Wenhai and ordered a few soldiers to isolate Adong's house, and then said, "What's going on?" Tell us about it."
"After you left, I didn't know what to do, but I was unwilling, so I had to continue to look in the house, I always felt that he was still in the house, although I couldn't find him, but he definitely didn't go, when I thought of this, I didn't give up. Then the sun rose, and the sun came into the room through the little window, and I was in a daze in the room, but suddenly I felt that something was wrong." The woman said as she wept.
"What's wrong?" Huang Jundao.
"At first, I didn't realize it, but then I looked closer, and it turned out that there were two shadows in the house," the woman said.
"Could it be that you are mistaken? You know, sometimes due to the different angles of sunlight, it is possible to have two shadows," Huang Jundao said.
"Absolutely not, because, because the shadow that appeared later was obviously older than mine, and the shape was very different, if I had to say, then, then, I think, it would be a man's shadow," the woman said.
"The shadow of a man? You mean you saw a man's shadow in that room? Huang Jun asked.
"That's right," the woman said.
