Chapter 1368 Behind the Door
"Is there a large wooden boat buried in the yard where we stayed? The building we saw was just the upper part of the wooden boat exposed outside, and the lower part of the boat was buried Buried underground!”
Li Bai’s guess is not surprising. But Jiang Cheng quickly refuted it, "I don't think so. After all, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened in the city. There can't be a ship buried underground every time, and you have also seen it. This wooden ship is very large. It is absolutely impossible to transport such a large ship to the city and bury it deeply. It’s a small project, and if you still want to hide it from others, it’s an almost impossible task.”
Jiang Cheng’s words stood up to scrutiny, and Li Bai’s panicked expression improved slightly. Gao Yanqing had a hot temper and stared at Jiang Cheng. Follow-up question: "Then what do you think is going on? If you have something to say, don't hide it." Tucked together, everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. No one can escape if there is one here!"
"I can't guess that the environment here feels too disconnected from reality. Besides, Now is not the time to discuss this, first think about how to survive.”
Jiang Cheng didn't even look at Gao Yanqing. While they were talking, the water continued to rise, and at the same time there was a strange "dong-dong" sound, which sounded very dull.
"What... what is the sound?" The fat man's eyes widened and he looked around in horror, as if there was something strange hidden in the dark lake around him.
Zhu Jie stretched out his hand and pointed to the front hall nervously, "The sound seems to be coming from that direction. I...I'm not sure."
Whether you are sure or not is not important now. What was important was that someone pointed the way. As the incoming water increased, it was only a matter of time before the wooden boat sank.
In fact, everyone has another option in mind, which is to abandon the ship and swim out of the room window, but this is the last resort. After all, no one wants to be in the strange and strange Spring God Lake. During the night cruise, everyone agreed that the real way out should be on this ship, but they hadn't found it yet.
"Let's go and take a look." The mature and steady Zhang Qizheng naturally became the leader of this group of people, leading the group of people to walk towards the front hall through water that was almost waist deep.
The sound of "dong dong" appeared and disappeared, and the uneasy feeling in everyone's hearts became more and more obvious. The sound seemed to point them in the direction. This feeling of being led into a trap step by step was heart-wrenching. perturbed.
Stepping into the front hall and following the direction of the sound, everyone trudged to the right side of the front hall, where they found several wooden doors connected together. The door paper stuck on the wooden doors had already Wet by the water, at this moment, the weird "dong dong" sound sounded again. The fat man immediately held his breath. Someone was knocking on the door, just outside these doors!
No, someone should be trapped in the room behind these doors. Judging from the layout of these doors, there should be a relatively large room behind the door, which can be regarded as a side hall. .
But through the door paper, I didn’t see the person knocking on the door. The knocking on the door was getting slower and slower and duller. It gave people a strong sense of suffocation through the door, as if knocking on the door. The person holding the door will be drowned in the water in the next second.
The moment this idea appeared, a strange shadow suddenly appeared behind the door. It poked out from under the door and slapped feebly on the door. It was a hand!
Judging from the position of this hand, the person outside the door must have fallen into the water, or was seriously injured and unable to stand up, so he could only squat down and pat the door. That's why the other party's shadow is not reflected on the door paper.
And if there is really a person behind the door, it should be the missing Lu Qin or one of Shao Tong.
The sound of knocking on the door was slow and urgent, with an indescribable rhythm. Unexpectedly, after hearing the rhythm of the knocking on the door, Gao Yanqing's body suddenly twitched, and then he seemed to remember something, His eyes suddenly opened wide, "This...this It’s a secret code used by the night watchman. It might really be Lu Qin out there!”
Jiang Cheng didn’t ask how Gao Yanqing knew the secret code of the night watchman. Instead, he asked directly: “What is the secret code? Can you translate it?” ?”
The corners of Gao Yanqing's eyes tightened and he couldn't help but step back, "Danger, extremely dangerous! Leave quickly!"
It seemed that the person outside was probably Lu Qin, but this code word made it difficult for everyone. Danger She didn't need to say it, everyone knew it, and it was easy to understand to leave quickly, but the question now was where to leave and how to leave.
Also, is Lu Qin outside really in danger and about to die, or is Lu Qin reminding them to open the door and follow her away? In this chaotic scene, correct Interpreting information is a very luxurious thing, but it is also very important, because it depends on whether everyone can survive.
"We can't wait any longer. Let's go get a few people and search upstairs. If we still don't find Lu Qin and Shao Tong, then we have to think of another way out." Zhang Qizheng spoke very quickly, while looking at Look at the crowd.
But no one moved at this moment. The fat man looked up at the dark top of his head and went upstairs... There might be something ghost waiting for them there. The six quilts in the Fu'an Inn appeared in the fat man's mind. The wounds on the gnawed corpse were shocking.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Qizheng sneered and grabbed Jiang Cheng's wrist, "I will naturally find a way out when I ask you to do it. You come with me too!"
"Why me?" Jiang Cheng tried to break away, Unexpectedly, Zhang Qizheng's body looked like a bone, but in fact he was a practitioner, and his hands were like iron pliers.
Fat Yao Shunyu saw this and wanted to rush to help, but was interrupted by Jiang Cheng, "Don't waste time, I'll just go and the rest will continue to think of a solution."
Worry When something happened to the doctor, Fatty also had to go with him. In the end, Zhang Qizheng, Fatty, Yao, Shunyu, and Li Bai all went to find someone, leaving Gao Yanqing to guard the front hall.
Tang Qisheng watched several people wading out of the water with difficulty. There seemed to be some complicated emotions in his eyes, as if there was something he couldn't figure out.
The stairs were slippery, and there was constant water flowing. You had to be careful every step you took. When you came to the corner on the second floor, and completely out of sight of Tang Qisheng and the others, Zhang Qizheng turned his head and looked towards Jiangcheng.
The fat man and the others immediately became on guard. After all, this Zhang Qi Zheng was not quite right. "Mr. Zhang, what do you have to say to us?" Jiang Cheng asked.
Zhang Qizheng nodded slightly, then squatted down and looked through the gap in the stairwell to the first floor. In that direction were several doors connected together, and a side hall with people behind the doors.
"The thing behind that door is a ghost." Zhang Qizheng suddenly changed his demeanor and explained: "You still remember that I once left the banquet and went to the hut alone. I took the opportunity to have a simple chat in the yard. After turning around, I determined the position There is no side hall at all, there is just a wall."
The hair on the fat man's hair stood up when he understood it, and he stammered: "You mean that side hall appeared suddenly, and... Those doors are also..."
"It's all fake." Zhang Qizheng nodded.
It’s okay to deceive the fat man like this, but Jiangcheng, Yao, Shunyu, Li Bai and others would not completely believe it. Yao, Shunyu immediately asked: "Since you know that there is a ghost behind the door, why did you save me? Let's go, we are strangers."
Zhang Qizheng glanced at Yao Shunyu and said angrily: "It's not you I want to save, it's him." Zhang Qizheng stared at Jiang Cheng, and then looked at the fat man. , "And you, Wang Fugui."
"Us?" The fat man blinked, "Old man, do you know us?"
"Not only do I know you, but I also owe you a favor." Zhang Qizheng's expression became serious, "Lin Muyun, Lin Muwan, you know these two people, they are my grandchildren. You saved them, I will return the favor to you this time."
Hearing the mention of two acquaintances, Lin Muyun and Lin Muwan, the fat man immediately perked up, but there was still some doubt in his words, "Old man, you are Lin Muyun and Lin Muwan's grandfather, but your name..."
Zhang Qizheng He showed a helpless expression, "I can't believe that you would dare to use your real names when you enter such a world." , don’t you two know your popularity?”
“Because of this, there is nothing to avoid. Even if I turn into ashes, the night watchers will find me.” With Zhang Qizheng and Lin Muwan. Regarding Lin Muyun's relationship, Jiang Cheng also knew that these people and Lin Wan'er were on the same front, so there was no need to hide some things from him.
"How are Lin Muyun, Lin Muwan and the others doing now?" the fat man asked.
Zhang Qizheng sighed, "They are very good. Now you can worry about yourself. Our situation is quite bad. I don't have a good solution for the time being, but my intuition tells me that we must not leave here. Boat, as mentioned before, none of the corpses found in Fu'an Inn were drowned, they were all bitten by those ghosts."
Seeing that they were all acquaintances, Yao, Shunyu and Li Bai also relaxed a little. Li Bai hesitated and asked: "Old sir, what about the people downstairs? Are we just going to stay here and not go back?"
"If you don't go back, we'll stay here and don't go upstairs to search. "The risk is too high, we try to delay as long as possible."
"The remaining people are definitely scared if they can't wait for us, so they are unlikely to dare to go upstairs to look for us. If I were them, I would be at risk." There is a probability that some extreme measures will be taken. Anyway, it will lead to death, and we must do it before death. Give me a try."
"Also, the night watchman Lu Qin, especially Shao Tong, gave me a very strange feeling. I suspect that these two people are also hiding in the dark, so they have not shown up. , they are also waiting for the opportunity, waiting for others to make mistakes, so that they can Find clues, or leave directly."
When Fatty heard Zhang Qizheng's words, he thought that Jiang was still hot. The Lin Muyun and Lin Muwan they had met before were both very clean and nice. A relatively pure person with completely different feelings from Zhang Qizheng.
Fat people like to be with simple people because they don't have to use their brains.
On the other side, things were developing according to their plan to a certain extent. Zhu Jie took the phone and hung up the phone in a very depressing atmosphere.
"What's going on? No one has picked up yet?" Gao Yanqing's face was a little distorted. It had been a while since the previous few people came up, but now there is no movement at all, and what's even weirder is that the phone can't get through. .
"Are these people playing tricks on us?" Gao Yanqing clenched his fingers, his knuckles turning white a little bit. His eyes searched the area, and naturally he stared at the doors.
Since the Jiangcheng people left, the banging on the door gradually stopped, as if the person behind the door had died.
"I can't tell, I feel something weird around here." Zhu Jie whispered, but before she could say the next words, her glance caught Tang Qisheng's eyes.
After the two people's eyes met, they understood each other's meaning. Tang Qisheng said in a more convincing voice: "I don't think so. Mr. Zhang doesn't seem like a person who would do such a thing. Don’t forget, it was him who led us to find clues, and it was also his idea to open the door for a few people in Jiangcheng. He went alone. He asked us to hide and wait for him.”
Zhu Jie. Zhu Jie nodded in agreement, "Indeed." The next second, Zhu Jie tightened his mouth. , there was a trace of unconcealable fear in his worried eyes, and his voice lowered, "Then if you say so, they... they must have encountered trouble up there, maybe they encountered those things!"
"Don't think so well of people, maybe they just escaped." Gao Yanqing was irritated. For some reason, he had a very bad premonition when he first came to this world, and it has continued to this day, as if Something was holding him back.
"No, if they escape, they will definitely call us. After all, the mission has just begun, and it will not be beneficial to them to lose a lot of teammates." Tang Qisheng's voice was very steady, which is extremely needed in adversity. For such a reliable person, he changed his tone and said, "But what Brother Gao said is not unreasonable. We can't just wait around, we have to find our own way."
Gao Yanqing couldn't help but glance at him, "What do you think?"
"First of all, I will never open this door. Let's leave here, go out, and go to the room in the front yard. "Tang Qisheng was good at tempting, "Is there any room in that room? There must be clues."
Gao Yanqing frowned, "That room was used to store corpses, and the whereabouts of the six corpses are still unknown."
He seemed to be responding before he finished speaking. As if they were guessing, a few fans There was sudden movement behind the door, as if someone was wading over quickly. A figure staggered from far to near, and appeared behind the door. The figure was reflected on the door paper. Then, as if he suddenly discovered something, his body bent and said, "Lu Qin, why...why are you here? "
Gao Yanqing and the other three were shocked, because the voice coming from behind the door was actually Shao Tong's voice. At this moment, Shao Tong's voice no longer had the nervousness it had before. On the contrary, it also contained a strong The feeling of fear is quite real.
Later, Shao Tong behind the door began to knock on the door, "Open the door, hurry up and save people, save people!"
Tang Qisheng and the other three held their breaths and remained silent.
"Open the door, save people! Save people quickly!"
Slowly, the sound became louder and louder, and more and more sad, but it really frightened Gao Yanqing and others, even Desperately, the figure behind the door gradually blurred, splitting from one into two, then four, eight... Shao Tong's voice also changed, his voice was distorted, and it was even impossible to distinguish between male and female.
Now there are countless people standing behind the door, shouting and calling for help, women's cries, men's roars, and the sharp sound of nails scratching the door. The whole scene is in chaos. (End of chapter)
