Chapter five hundred and eighty eight: what you see
"So what do we do now?"
Looking at the silent people on both sides, Peng Hu pressed the button and finally asked a question that was of practical significance at the moment.
As the question came out, everyone had different reactions. Only Zhao Ping seemed calm. The man with glasses responded immediately, as if nothing had happened, he raised his head and answered: "No need to do anything.
Anyway, Nu Qi will give priority to killing Liu Dong’s group, and we just need to continue to observe.”
As mentioned above, Zhao Ping's tone was extremely calm when he spoke, but it was so chilling in other people's ears. It is obvious that the strategy of the man with glasses has not changed, and he still insists on treating Liu Dong and other plot characters as
Experimenting with mice, the executors will observe and look for more clues from the deaths of those people. If necessary, the bespectacled man will not even mind using someone as a test subject again on the pretext of 'saving people'.
Zhao Ping's plan is naturally quite cold-blooded, but unfortunately this is the only way at the moment.
After saying these words and ignoring the reactions of others, the man with glasses turned around and walked away, heading towards the house without looking back.
………
House, left bedroom.
"Mr. Liu! What are you still hesitating about? We need to leave here quickly, otherwise you, me, and all of us will die here!"
Listening to the anxious words in his ears, Liu Dong sat by the bed and lowered his head in silence. Meng Fei and Fang Min stood on the left and right sides, and opposite Zhang Zhiyong, who looked more nervous than anyone else.
With a nervous look and an urgent tone, Zhang Zhiyong was the first and first person to notice Zhang Qifeng's abnormality. In other words, he felt something was wrong when Zhang Qifeng came out of the toilet during the day. He didn't take it seriously at first until he saw the other person with his own eyes.
Finally, seeing the miserable death of the pockmarked man, Zhang Zhiyong's fear and anxiety increased in a very short period of time.
In addition, several people learned some information about the female locust from the bespectacled man, and this information was the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing him to be nervous and in panic all day long. It was terrible. The female locust was too scary.
Although humans cannot see 'her' under normal circumstances, once they see her, it is equivalent to a death sentence. They are 100% certain to die. Whoever sees her will die without a doubt!
I don’t deny that many times people are used to scaring themselves, but the problem is that in the face of the naked reality, even rational people will not think that this is just purely scary. There are too many examples. Ma Zhilong and Liu Chuanfa died suddenly, and Zhang Qifeng died tragically.
, this scene is so terrible that it cannot be seen in front of us.
Anyone with his predecessor would be in dire straits. In order not to end up with the same fate, in order to survive, the thought of escaping slowly arises. Once this thought appears in his mind, it cannot be erased. The result is clear at a glance. As soon as he returns to the bedroom, Zhang Zhiyong
He first made a request to Liu Dong and asked to leave the town as soon as possible.
Suffering from the oppression of death, Zhang Zhiyong felt and instinctively urged him. However, as the team leader and the boss of several people, after listening to Zhang Zhiyong's strong suggestions, Liu Dong did not speak or answer. Instead, he hesitated, even though Zhang Zhiyong had sworn to say
If you don't leave, you will die, but he, who has always been calm in dealing with things, still refuses to answer. The reason is that he thinks more and considers more than Zhang Zhiyong.
Yes, Zhang Qifeng died, and his death was extremely miserable. What Zhang Zhiyong said before him may be true, but if he just escaped, just left the town, everything would be fine?
Because the initial encounter was so profound, Liu Dong clearly knew that even if he left the town, he would not be able to leave the mountains and forests, and how many days could they last without food? What's more, Zhao Ping had specially reminded Qi before returning to the house.
The scope of animal killing is very large, and it is not limited to small towns. In other words, there is no difference between being in the mountains and staying in a small town. If they escape from the town because they are afraid of locusts, they will still be unable to get rid of the female locusts.
"Zhiyong, please don't rush Mr. Liu. I think we should continue to stay here. Even if we leave the town, we still can't get out of the forest. Don't forget how Ma Zhilong and Liu Chuanfa died. They both died in
In the mountains and forests.”
Sensing Zhang Zhiyong's excitement and seeing Liu Dong's tangled expression, Meng Fei instinctively comforted her and patiently persuaded Zhang Zhiyong on Liu Dong's behalf. To be honest, for now, the beautiful woman was as scared and helpless as everyone present, especially in the
After seeing Zhang Qifeng's tragic situation, the woman subconsciously
The idea that she will die sooner or later is not much different from Zhang Zhiyong. She is right. The only difference is that she does not want to leave the town and still insists on maintaining the status quo. The reason? There is no reason. It just comes from women.
Intuition told her that leaving the town was not a good choice.
It is said that once a Taoist is stubborn, it is difficult to change. This is true. As Meng Fei tried to persuade her, and as Liu Dong remained silent for a long time, Zhang Zhiyong immediately guessed what they were thinking. When he was dissatisfied, he opened his mouth to argue. Unexpectedly, he refused to give up.
When he still wanted to speak again and continue to urge...
Opposite me, Fang Min, who had been in a daze since returning to the bedroom, suddenly raised her head, as if she had hurriedly regained consciousness. Then, while trembling, she mentioned something to several people in a trembling tone, something that she was most afraid of personally.
Question: "Mr. Liu, Sister Meng Fei, before leaving, Zhao Ping seemed to have told us that there was a certain pattern in killing people, and they seemed to kill people in order. He also said that they would most likely start killing people from our group. This
Is it true?"
As soon as Fang Min said this, the environment immediately cooled down, and everyone's already pale faces suddenly became even paler than before!
Fang Min, this woman who used to be proud and arrogant, but has recently been tortured and timid by all kinds of experiences, suddenly said something at the most inopportune time and place. These words were like a basin of ice water being poured all over her body, and everyone was shocked.
The bones are cold and the whole body is cold.
Female locusts can kill people, and they can kill people in order, and they will most likely start with their own group of people!
In fact, to take a step back, even if Zhao Ping didn't tell them specifically, after seeing Zhang Qifeng's tragic death, Liu Dong and others had already had questions in their own minds. A question that came up instinctively due to inertia, that is, why did he die one after another?
They are all members of their team? And Zhao
But Ping's group has always been safe and sound? It wasn't until the bespectacled man clearly informed the executor of all the speculations, and combined with the actual situation, several people believed it, vaguely realized that what the other party said was true, and vaguely felt that the man seemed to be following some kind of truth.
They are the ones who bear the brunt of the killings in sequence!
"This...should be true. Otherwise, why are the people who died always from our side? Maybe, maybe only after we are all dead, will it be the turn of Zhao Ping and others."
When Liu Dong admitted the authenticity of the question with a pale face, Zhang Zhiyong looked stunned and immediately snorted: "Humph! Why did the guy named Zhao and his companions behave so calmly? It turned out that they had known it for a long time.
The result is that, at least their group will be fine before we are all dead."
His words were dissatisfied and his expression was indignant. After a pause, the man continued to say coldly: "But what's the use of this? No one can hide from the women anyway. Once we are all dead, their group will not be able to survive. The only difference is
It's just that you die early and die later. To be honest, if death is really unavoidable, I would rather commit suicide than become a pile of scraps!"
………
The long night has finally passed, and the morning glow has returned to the world. The morning light has begun to appear, and the rising sun has risen, which means that a new day has arrived.
The environment is so beautiful, but unfortunately it has nothing to do with a certain mountain town.
This place is shrouded in fear and shrouded in death. A large number of countless mutilated corpses are always irritating and oppressing everyone, causing a group of living people trapped in the mountain to live in fear all day long.
The third day of the supernatural mission, 8:22 am.
At this moment, except for He Fei and Yao Fujiang, the living room was full of people. The remaining executors, together with Liu Dong and several business white-collar workers, all gathered here. It seemed to be the same as yesterday, but in fact there were changes. Not to mention that there were missing people.
The atmosphere is much duller than yesterday.
Yes, there are people gathered together, but most of them are dull and silent. At present, everyone is silent and sitting on the sofa, and no one speaks from the beginning to the end.
It's a pity that silence can't solve the problem. As the silence continued and the depression became stronger, about two minutes later, Liu Dong, who was sitting opposite Zhao Ping, broke the silence first. I don't know if he had thought about something earlier. First he raised his head, and then he looked like
He made up his mind and said to the man with glasses in a pleading tone.
Said: "Mr. Zhao! Please help us! Help us. If what you said last night is true, then we will have no way to survive. What's more, once we die, it will be of no benefit to you.
So no matter what, you and I have to help each other and deal with it together!"
Language is an art, and there is a lot of knowledge in it. The same paragraph often has different meanings when spoken by different people. As a business white-collar worker, Liu Dong's words are full of pleading on the surface but actually contain a reminder. According to him,
When it came to the words 'no good at all', the man also deliberately emphasized the tone, and the charm was self-evident. It was clear that he was asking for help and at the same time reminding the other party not to ignore us and leave us alone.
It's your turn!
Everyone knows the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling cold, and at this moment Liu Dong did use this reasoning to hint to the other party.
Sure enough, as soon as Liu Dong's words came out, Meng Fei and Fang Min followed closely behind the man, looking expectantly at Zhao Ping. Unfortunately, the man with glasses did not answer immediately, and did not express his opinion first, but it was as if he could not hear it.
The words hinted at the expression on his face, which was expressionless and silent. He just scanned the four people opposite him with his eyes. After a long time, he finally answered: "Mr. Liu,
I think you should understand that it's not that we won't help you, but that I told several people last night that the way this female squid kills is too weird, and there is nothing we can do about it. Even now, we still have no way to deal with it.
Admitting that all of you are dead will not do us any good, as it means that we will definitely be the next batch to die, but the problem is that no one has been able to think of a way so far."
Zhao Ping's answer was half true and half false. The truth was that the executor had still not found a solution, but the lie was that the bespectacled man and the other party had no intention of saving each other.
When the other party was attacked by hawks, he observed the details in order to obtain more clues. To put it bluntly, he was using these business white-collar workers as their
Experimental consumables. After all, props are too precious. Executors will never use props for experiments unless absolutely necessary. In Zhao Ping's eyes, Liu Dong and his group are just a group of NPCs. He will never waste his personal life.
props to save the other party, and this decision was exactly what he had discussed with the other seniors last night.
So naturally, while the bespectacled man was talking, Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao on his left and right sides were silent. Only Peng Hu looked hesitant and slightly confused. The bald man wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.
Didn't say.
In the living room, as Zhao Ping shook his head and refused, and as the man expressed his helplessness, the result was predictable...
Silence returned to the scene. Liu Dong, Meng Fei and Fang Min all looked disappointed, and in the end, they were getting closer to despair.
Bang!
Suddenly, at the tenth second of silence, Zhang Zhiyong moved across the sofa. Finally, unable to hold back his anger, he slapped the table and stood up suddenly. Then he scolded the man with glasses with a ferocious expression: "Zhao Ping
!Stop pretending here! Don’t think I don’t know what’s in your heart
What's your idea? Although I don't know what you guys do, I can still guess from what you have done recently. You must not be ordinary tourists, right? Otherwise, how could you be like this in the face of such a strange situation?
Calm down, you...who are you on earth!?"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves. Suppressed by fear, Zhang Zhiyong began to go crazy and became angry. In anger, the man broke the window paper regardless of breaking the window and asked all the recent doubts about the executor. Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar.
Among them, Liu Dong and the three were the most surprised. To be honest, they had never doubted each other's identity earlier. However, at this moment, after Zhang Zhiyong said this, under the influence of it, for a while, neither Liu Dong nor Meng Fei even knew Fang Fang.
Mindu was vaguely aware that something was really wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he got the impression that although some people in Zhao Ping's group were as panicked as himself, others were much calmer, such as the one named Cheng Ying.
Girls, such as bald men, and the arrogant young man who claimed to be a Taoist priest last night. Faced with various dangers and crises, the calmness of the above people is almost as good as Zhao Ping. In this case, problems arise, then
that is……
Are the people in front of me really just ordinary tourists as they claim to be?
With confusion and suspicion mixed in, Liu Dong and the others subconsciously turned their doubtful eyes to the opposite side, towards the executioners.
Of course, he was puzzled and stared at. In fact, all the above only existed for a few seconds. When he suddenly came to his senses, Liu Dong suddenly felt that something was wrong, and then he secretly cursed Zhang Zhiyong's unwise move. Although the four of them said
The current situation can be described as extremely dangerous, but after all, it has not been immediately fatally threatened, and it will still be pointed out in the future.
You may need help from the other party, so the more you do this, the less likely you are to offend the other party. What's more, there is a Taoist priest in the other team who claims to be able to drive away evil spirits. Let's not say whether it is true or not, but what if it is true? What if he can really get rid of the evil spirits?
What about warding off evil spirits? Once he offends the group on the opposite side, Zhao Ping just ignores them and ignores them...
"Zhiyong, shut up! How can you talk to Mr. Zhao like this!?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao. My subordinate didn't mean to offend you or anyone else. He was just too nervous. Everyone knows the current situation anyway."
In a flash of thought, Liu Dong turned around and scolded Zhang Zhiyong, and immediately got busy and apologized on Zhang Zhiyong’s behalf. Seeing this, Zhao Ping waved his hands indifferently to show that he didn’t mind. Not only him, but also Cheng Ying and others on the side also guessed the same.
It can be concluded that Zhang Zhiyong and even Liu Dong are mentally active. Indeed, Zhang Zhiyong has been nervous and on the verge of collapse as early as last night, when Zhang Qifeng was killed.
, as for Liu Dong, although this person seems to be more scared than his subordinate, from his instant apology reaction, it can be easily seen that Liu Dong obviously does not intend to break up with the executioner, and still hopes to get help from the executioner.
, thinking about this, everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, he is indeed a character who can climb to the position of general manager in the company, and his mind is indeed much stronger than that of his subordinates.
The only regret is...
Although he said he didn't mind, Zhao Ping, who had already decided on a strategic policy, remained unmoved by Liu Dong's request for help. It wasn't until he repeatedly begged and narrated that Xu really couldn't stand the other party's entanglement that the man with glasses frowned.
The brows said something, a suggestion and a reminder: "Mr. Liu,
I really can't help you, but... I can give you a suggestion, that is, since I have learned that you are currently the target of female locust killing, you'd better make some appropriate responses based on the information I provided last night. Although
It may not be useful, but it’s better than waiting to die.”
After saying these words, Zhao Ping stood up and left. Along with many executors beside him, they stood up and immediately walked out the door.
Um?
Not to mention what the bespectacled man meant, as expected, when the other party stood up collectively, the white-collar workers were stunned for a moment. It was not until they saw that the other party seemed to be all going out that Liu Dongcai stretched out his hand and subconsciously asked: "Mr. Zhao, what are you going to do?
…”
Upon hearing the inquiry, Zhao Ping, who had already walked to the door with everyone, replied without looking back: "Go outside to collect food."
Yes, due to the large number of people, everyone had already exhausted all the food stored in this house yesterday. In order not to starve to death, the executors unanimously decided to start action tomorrow before resting last night and start collecting.
They dispersed to other houses in the town to collect food. It was obvious that there was no grain of rice left in the house today, so everyone naturally had to leave immediately.
Returning to the topic, when Zhao Ping answered, Liu Dong hesitated briefly, but in the end he made a decision before the other party went out. He quickly stood up and left his seat. He grabbed Zhang Zhiyong's arm and rushed to the door while turning back to the two women and saying: "Let's go.
Let’s all go, let’s follow together!”
After that, without waiting for the other three people to say anything, General Manager Liu dragged Zhang Zhiyong and strode after him.
As described earlier, since Liu Dong has the ability to climb to the position of general manager, his understanding of people's hearts is naturally not much lower. It is obvious that he does not want to break with Zhao Ping and his gang. Not only does he not want to break with people like this
At times, you need to maintain a harmonious relationship with the other party. Although you may not necessarily win the other party's favor, at least you cannot arouse the other party's resentment. Just like now, you cannot just let others go out to collect food.
General Manager Liu was thinking this, and the executor also had some ideas. Since it was basically determined that the female wolf would not attack the executor before killing all the characters in the plot, as soon as they walked out of the house, everyone dispersed and ran away after seeing what happened.
Liu Dong came out and said without hesitation: "Let's do this.
I will follow Zhao Ping, Zhiyong, you will follow the guy named Chen Xiaoyao, that guy looks like a playful smile all day long, so he shouldn’t be very afraid of worms. If he is really a Taoist priest, then you should be safest if you follow him. Meng Fei, just follow the guy named Cheng Ying.
Girls, as for Fang Min...eh? Where is Fang Min?"
When Liu Dong rushed to the street to arrange for his subordinates to follow him, he found that Fang Min was not around except Zhang Zhiyong and Meng Fei at the end of the arrangement. When asked by his boss, Meng Fei immediately frowned and replied: "Just now
You ordered us to come out, and I planned to ask Fang Min to follow us, but she said she was afraid that the corpses in the house would not come with her, and Mr. Liu and you were in too much of a hurry to come out, so I had no choice but to let Fang Min stay. "
"Forget it, never mind. Since that woman is so timid, there is no point in following her. Anyway, there are still two Zhao Ping companions in the room, so it's better to let Fang Min stay."
Seeing the executor walking further and further away, at the next moment, with a few words, they quickly dispersed and followed Liu Dong's instructions to pursue their respective targets.
Da da da.
………
At the same time, after confirming that the footsteps outside the door disappeared and seeing no one else around, Fang Min shivered unconsciously in the living room for some reason.
There is no reason, no reason. If she chose to stay earlier because she did not want to see the corpses in the house, then when she found that she was the only one left in the living room, the woman was scared, as scared as she could be!
"Gudu."
Swallowing her saliva, she scanned the empty living room with vigilant eyes and looked at the surrounding environment. For a moment, she regretted that she was timid and didn't go out with Liu Dong and the others. However, when she thought about it, the woman immediately felt relieved. Why?
The problem is that even if she is left behind, she is not alone. After all, Zhao Ping's group still has two companions, either somewhere else or in the bedroom next door.
Sure enough, when she thought of someone next door, Fang Min, who had already felt frightened because everyone left, hurriedly got up and left. She left the sofa and walked straight to the bedroom on the right, but...
While walking, something happened.
A small thing, a tiny detail that is too small to be noticed.
As he stood up and left, walking towards the bedroom, a particle floated from nowhere. A tiny particle, not much bigger than dust, drifted towards the woman silently.
Then……
Fang Min stopped, stopped moving for an instant, and suddenly froze on the spot,
Then, she started to tremble and sweat, her pretty face turned pale, and her pretty eyes suddenly widened.
Because, just now, at the moment when she was about to walk to the door of the bedroom, she saw a picture, no, it should be a person, a woman.
A woman in a pink dress with bare feet.
The other party appeared in front of Fang Min out of thin air in an instant!!!
