Chapter 18: The Labyrinth
Xiao Jia didn't speak, but looked at Huang Jun with a face full of grievances, and then looked at Shu Yao. Shu Yao's heart softened and said, "I think let's take him with us, after all, he is also a party."
Wen Hai looked at Huang Jun, Huang Jun sighed, and said, "Then bring him with you, it's just that this time it's not trivial, be careful." When Xiao Jia heard this, she ran behind Shu Yao, and her little hand pulled Shu Yao's clothes and refused to let go. Shu Yao hugged Xiao Jia up, comforting him while signaling that he could move on. The three of them continued to walk forward.
After a while, I saw a light in front of me, but compared to the last time, this time the lights were sparse and not so bright, and I don't know why. Huang Jun looked over from a distance of several hundred meters, and found that the village was still as quiet as last time, no, it can be said that this time it was quieter, but you can still see some figures walking around, and there is no abnormality from the gait, just like the activities that ordinary people should have at night, if it is not for the weirdness of the whole thing, if Huang Jun only came to the village for the first time, it can be said that there is absolutely no abnormality, thinking of this, Huang Jun once again felt worried about the prospect of this operation, No matter what you're facing, it's clear that this opponent is not ordinary. Huang Jun couldn't help laughing at himself, when would he be afraid of anyone, and now that he has arrived here, it will be difficult to retreat, not only a matter of face, but Huang Jun's own arrogance does not allow him to retreat. Thinking of this, Huang Jun turned his head and waved his hand at Shu Yao and the others, signaling the three of them to move forward, and himself, slowly walking forward in front.
In the previous section, Huang Jun and the others can be said to walk very fast, but since they entered the village, their pace slowed down, slower than the usual walk, because they didn't know what they were going to face in front of them, so they were more careful, and because no matter if they were careful, they would definitely not be able to hide from the people inside, so they simply went in slowly, and saw what was unusual. It's just that compared to last time, this time everyone was obviously a lot more nervous, and Huang Jun slowly tasted the difference in every step.
This is something he didn't do last time, but after going back last time, Huang Jun felt that it was very necessary, because the small village was full of all kinds of weirdness, but there will always be an initial time and place for every thing to happen, and it will not happen suddenly, and it was because everyone ignored this last time that it led to the final passivity, and Huang Jun would not make such a mistake again. Everyone didn't speak, just walked forward silently. This time, Huang Jun finally found the difference under the taste of the heart, only two hundred meters away from the small village, Huang Jun suddenly felt as if he had added a lot of burdens to his body at once, this kind of burden is just right, if you don't pay attention to it, I'm afraid you won't notice it at all, but Huang Jun can obviously feel that the weight of his body is increasing, and as he gets closer and closer to the village, this weight is also increasing invisibly, of course, overall, the amplitude is not large, but if it continues like this, That would be a very physically demanding thing. Huang Jun even smelled a strange smell in the air, to be precise, it was not a smell, but a very strange atmosphere, a kind of ** who wanted to sleep or sit down and rest, this feeling was very faint, so light that it was negligible, but Huang Jun knew that if he and others didn't want to overcome it, I was afraid that in the end, I really didn't know what would happen.
"Do you feel it too?" Huang Jun looked at Shu Yao, Wenhai and others, Shu Yao hugged Xiao Jia, this experience was even more obvious.
"Yes, there is a difference, sure enough, gravity, it seems to have increased" Wen Haidao.
"It's not much, but it's really increased," Shu Yao also nodded.
Huang Jun nodded, but without the slightest pause at his feet, he continued to walk forward. When I met a few pedestrians at the entrance of the village, these pedestrians turned a blind eye to Huang Jun and the others, and walked over by themselves, as if they didn't see them at all. Wen Hai couldn't help it, and was about to step forward to stop someone and ask for directions, but was stopped by Huang Jun, Huang Jun didn't explain to Wen Hai, just signaled with his hand not to pay attention to it, and just walked forward.
Although they walked slowly, the small village was not really big, and after a while, they came to the place where they had last seen the old man, only this time her door was tightly closed, and they didn't know what to do, and there was no one in the courtyard.
"What should we do now?" Shu Yao said nervously.
"Moving on, we walked through the whole village, to see what was going on, remember, to save our strength," Huang Jun said.
"Mom, I, I want Mommy" At this time, Xiao Jia jumped out and shouted. Huang Jun glared at him, Xiao Jia was frightened, and retracted his head, but after a while, he seemed to have plucked up his courage and said, "I, I want my mother, find my mother." Huang Jun's head suddenly grew big, and he could see that Xiao Jia was actually quite afraid of him, but in order to find his mother, Xiao Jia obviously didn't care anymore, Huang Jun really regretted bringing Xiao Jia over this time, but he also understood that at this point, if he didn't agree to Xiao Jia's request, I was afraid that the whole trip would not be peaceful, and for now, they didn't know anyone in this village, if there would be someone who would answer their doubts, I'm afraid there was only Xiao Jia's mother, thinking of this, Huang Jun said helplessly: "Okay, just go to your mother." , though, you have to lead the way."
When Xiao Jia heard this, her little face suddenly showed joy, and she kept nodding like a chicken pecking rice, and then jumped out of Shu Yao's arms and walked forward first. Everyone's hearts were very tight, and no one was in the mood to speak, so they all followed Xiao Jia, and Xiao Jia was also immersed in the feeling of seeing her parents soon, and she was not in the mood to speak. In this way, they walked for a while, and the path in front of them was still the same path, and there was no end in sight.
"Wait," Huang Jun suddenly shouted. Shu Yao and Wen Hai both stopped, and Xiao Jia turned her head blankly and looked at Huang Jun and the others.
"What's wrong?" Shu Yao asked.
"Things seem to be a little wrong," Huang Jun said.
"What's wrong?" Wen Hai asked puzzled.
"Look, the path ahead," Huang Jun pointed.
Shu Yao looked at it carefully and said, "What do you want to say?" ”
"Don't you think this trail is familiar?" Huang Jun asked.
"Familiar? Let me see, by the way, isn't this the road we just walked? We, we didn't move forward at all," Wenhai monster shouted.
"Could it be that this is the legendary ghost hitting the wall?" Shu Yao said.
Huang Jun scolded with a smile: "Ghost hitting the wall? You forgot what you do, the average ghost is not so clever at hitting the wall,
"Yes, if it is a ghost hitting the wall, we can definitely see it, but the situation we are encountering now is actually similar to the ghost hitting the wall, and if it continues like this, we may not be able to walk for another three days." Shu Yao said.
"Xiaojia, are you sure your home is here?" Huang Jundao.
"Yes, Mom is over there, I play a lot" Xiao Jia Ke said with excitement on her face no matter what the hell hit the wall.
"Do you usually have to walk for so long?" Wenhaidao.
"Usually? Usually it's very close to my house here, but it's a little long to walk today, but it's going to be there soon."
As soon as Huang Jun and the others heard this, they knew that something bad was wrong, "I think we should go back the way we came, exit this strange place first, and then we will plan" Wen Hai proposed.
Hearing Wenhai say that he wanted to return, Xiaojia was full of unhappiness, "I don't, I want my mother."
Shu Yao wanted to continue to say something, but Huang Jun said, "Let's move forward, be careful"
"Why, knowing that the front is not passable, when do we have to go before we can get out?" Wen Hai said angrily.
"Look at it, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back now," Huang Jun smiled bitterly. Shu Yao and Wen Hai turned around and looked at it together, but found that there was also a small road extending into the distance not far behind, but it was no longer the road they came.
"There's something weird about this place," Wenhai said.
Huang Jun didn't speak, just motioned for Xiao Jia to continue to lead the way, and then as expected, no matter how several people walked, they couldn't get out of such a circle, slowly, they didn't know how long they walked, and a deep exhaustion hit.
"Did you notice?" Huang Jun suddenly smiled bitterly at this time.
"Notice what?" Shu Yao asked.
"Have you ever thought about how long we've been gone?" Huang Jun asked.
"I don't know, but I should have been gone for a long time," Wen Hai said uncertainly.
"You won't look at the clock," Huang Jun said impatiently.
Wen Hai smiled embarrassedly, then took out the clock from his pocket and said, "Ah, we've been walking all night, but we haven't gone out yet."
Huang Jun said: "I'm not talking about this, you say, what time is it?" ”
"Now? The same is, well, around six o'clock in the morning, I've really been walking for a long time" Wen Hai said.
"Yes, it's really not right," Shu Yao shouted.
"Why are you always surprised when you speak, what's wrong?" Wenhaidao.
Huang Jundao was angry and funny, "You are stupid and you are still a scientific worker, your level is higher than ours, and if you are smart, I can't say anything about your performance."
"If you have something to say" Wen Hai said impatiently, he had been inexplicably wandering around the mountains all night, and his heart was bored, coupled with Huang Jun's sarcasm, which completely made him explode.
"It's summer, and it's dawning early, so it's supposed to be dawn at this time, right?" Huang Jundao.
"Well, at six o'clock in the morning, the sky should be bright," Wen Hai said.
"But you look at us now, you look at the sky above us, it's still exactly the same as when we came in, you say, is this normal?" Huang Jun said angrily.
"Yes, as soon as you say this, I understand, but it shouldn't be, this, this is not scientific," Wen Hai shouted.
"Put your damn science aside, now think about it, what are we going to do" Huang Jun was also angry.
