Xia Jianren's hands trembled and he immediately hung up the call from Cang Yue.
He saw with his own eyes that Cang Yue was only half-length alive and said that she would not answer the call.
But the other party continued to call relentlessly, and the screen kept lighting up, like a curse. Xia Jianren pressed the hangup button in a panic. Unexpectedly, after pressing it several times, the screen of the phone went black and the phone shut down.
The battery on his mobile phone was low to begin with, and the call just now consumed the last bit of battery. Xia Jianren looked dumbfounded at the black phone screen.
He pressed the power button repeatedly, but the phone stopped turning on.
"Fuck!" Xia Jianren clenched his cell phone and cursed loudly, but he didn't dare to speak too loudly.
He breathed quickly and continued to walk forward quietly, just wanting to quickly find the way he came.
On the other side, Wang Chuan, who was on the mountain road, finally called Cang Yue's mobile phone.
"Hello?" Cang Yue's voice rang from the phone.
Wang Chuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Cang Yue finally answered the phone. He immediately asked: "I heard from Gu Mian that you left with Zhao Shuang?"
"Yes, we were looking for those missing colleagues, and we found a cave here. The two of them went in, and I was guarding outside."
Wang Chuan was a little anxious: "Call them out first and tell them to stop looking for you! Zhao Shuang is probably a ghost!"
"Is Zhao Shuang a ghost?"
"Yes, if she is reminded that she is dead, then we are all doomed! Don't stimulate her memory again!"
There was silence for a few seconds before a voice came from the other side: "Okay, I'll call them out. By the way, do Gu Mian and the others know about this?"
"This is what Gu Mian told me."
"Okay, where are you? I'll meet you when I call them out."
While Wang Chuan was on the phone, he looked down at the bottom of the mountain road. A group of police officers were gathering there discussing where the bus had gone.
"I'm right next to the accident site. You can see me when you come up."
"good."
Just when Wang Chuan finished the call and wanted to hang up, he suddenly remembered something and said doubtfully: "By the way, Cang Yue."
"What?"
"Do you remember how long it will take for us to leave here?"
He was asking about the time of this dungeon mission.
The other side fell into silence, and no one spoke for a long time.
Wang Chuan's hands began to tremble, and he realized something.
Suddenly, a strange "clucking" sound suddenly came from the silent microphone, like a child's cackling laughter, or like a cat's scream in the middle of the night.
Wang Chuan shivered and dropped his cell phone to the ground.
Then he reacted and immediately picked up the phone and hung up the call.
He looked at the darkened mobile phone screen, sweating profusely: "Cang Yue...is he dead? Could it be that Zhao Shuang remembered it!"
Now is obviously not the time to stand here and think about this.
He had already told Zhao Shuang his location on the phone just now, and the ghost will definitely come looking for him soon!
Wang Chuan didn't expect to escape harm by running to a crowded place. He had already seen the transfer ability of ghosts.
While thinking about this, he got on his bicycle and headed towards the top of the mountain. Gu Mian said that he went down into the forest on a path in front of him. Wang Chuan planned to re-walk where Gu Mian and Coco walked to catch up with them.
While Wang Chuan was riding his bike, he had a free hand to call Gu Mian.
Gu Mian and Keke were crossing the scene of the incident and heading towards the direction of Cang Yue and the other three when their cell phone screen suddenly lit up. It was a call from Wang Chuan.
"What was the last large-scale event that players participated in?" - As soon as Gu Mian answered the phone, she suddenly heard this question.
He paused and said, "College entrance examination?"
The other person was obviously relieved when he heard these two words, and then he started chattering non-stop.
"Cang Yue called me just now. Before hanging up, I asked her carefully about the dungeon mission. She didn't answer. She even giggled afterwards. I guess Cang Yue is dead..."
Coco was right next to Gu Mian when she answered the phone, and she heard Wang Chuan's words clearly.
Hearing this, Keke thought for a while: "In this case, I guess Zhao Shuang has recovered his memory... The viable way to survive in this copy is gone."
If you want to survive, you can only rely on hiding and luck.
"I just don't know if Xia Jianren is dead now." When Coco called Xia Jianren just now, she found that his phone had been turned off.
Wang Chuan continued: "Where are you now? I want to find you."
Gu Mian's strength after entering the dungeon is indeed very reassuring.
But Coco knew that the copy would never let them stay next to Gu Mian. In the next second, they might be moved to other places and out of the safe range.
It's better to prepare early.
Gu Mian next to him had already given his location. Wang Chuan was a little frightened when he heard that Gu Mian was heading towards Zhao Shuang.
Cang Yue on the other side spoke into the microphone: "Actually, you don't have to come to us specially, just hide yourself. It's not like you don't know that ghosts can move us away."
Wang Chuan also sounded quite helpless: "That's what I say, but I still feel safer next to Gu Mian. Anyway, I'm going to your side. You try to walk as slowly as possible and wait for me."
Ke Ke looked at the cell phone next to Gu Mian's ear speechlessly, not quite understanding why his teammate who was very shrewd at the beginning turned into such a virtuous person.
After Wang Chuan finished instructing Gu Mian, he hung up the phone, slid down a gentle path into the woods below, and disappeared.
On the other side, Xia Jianren was still wandering around like a headless chicken.
He moved lightly, fearing that he would make some noise that would attract Zhao Shuang over.
Cang Yue's half body still left a deep impression on him. It was the first time he felt real death.
He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to die so miserably.
He didn't know how long he had been wandering in the dense forest, but Xia Jianren suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the front. He immediately shrank to one side and gently picked up the branches in front of him, then opened a gap to peek ahead.
I saw a familiar figure in front of me.
"Wang Chuan? Why are you here?" Xia Jianren shouted in surprise.
Meeting familiar people in a place like this can indeed give people a lot of relief.
The people in front also turned around and looked at Xia Jianren with surprise on their faces: "Xia Jianren? I came down to find you."
Hearing this, Xia Jianren ran out panting: "The sound I heard just now scared me to death. Fortunately, it was you... By the way, you don't know, that Zhao Shuang, she, she..."
Wang Chuan interrupted Xia Jianren: "I know, it's a ghost."
Xia Jianren asked in surprise: "How did you know?"
"Gu Mian told me. Later, Zhao Shuang used Cang Yue's cell phone and Cang Yue's voice to call me, but I found out," he said while looking behind Xia Jianren, "Cang Yue is dead?"
Xia Jianren gritted his teeth and nodded: "Dead."
Now thinking of Cang Yue's death, he was trembling with fear.
"Let's stop chatting here. You know the way back to the bus, right? Let's go that way. Maybe we can meet Gu Mian on the way." Xia Jianren hugged Wang Chuan and walked forward.
"Okay," Wang Chuan nodded, "go this way."
As he spoke, he raised his feet and walked in one direction, and Xia Jianren quickly followed.
"That Zhao Shuang was so scary," he later described his experience. "At that time we found a hole and the two of them went in. Cang Yue was worried when she went in. She held a rope around her waist and the other end was in my hand.
Go on, unexpectedly when I pulled her out, only half of her body was left..."
"Then I ran. When I was running, I looked back and saw Zhao Shuang's face smiling at me in the hole! It scared me to death!"
Xia Jianren followed Wang Chuan closely, touching his chest from time to time while talking, and he was very scared.
He continued: "When we find Gu Mian, we will just stick to him and pin him down. I don't believe that the ghost can still move us away if it sticks to him."
"Okay." The person in front agreed.
At this time, Xia Jianren realized something was wrong.
The surrounding scenery looked familiar, as if he had walked by it not long ago.
But this is definitely not the way we came, but rather the way leading to the cave.
The dead leaves of the weeds under his feet squeaked when he stepped on them. Xia Jianren opened his mouth slightly and looked at the back of the person in front of him. The more he looked at it, the more it became more and more disturbing. His heart felt cold and he slowly stopped walking.
He tried to open the player panel of the person in front of him, but found that it could not be opened.
At this moment, Wang Chuan in front also stopped.
"Why did you stop?" Wang Chuan's voice came. He still didn't look back, as if he was talking to Xia Jianren with his back.
Xia Jianren looked at this strange figure and took two steps back. He opened his mouth but said nothing.
When he didn't get a reply, Wang Chuan turned around and asked again: "Why did you stop?"
Xia Jianren trembled and almost fell to the ground.
He saw that the person in front of him just turned his face, but his body did not move. His back was still facing him.
On that strange head, two eyes were staring at him.
