The distance of ten miles is not that far. For ordinary people to walk normally, it will only take about fifty minutes at most.
But the exorcist was extremely physically strong, so he ran away and could arrive in ten minutes.
I was a step slower than the woman with white makeup and Batu Gal. Only after I saw seven or eight temporarily set up tents did I realize that I had reached the place.
Those tents are very professional fully automatic tents, the kind that can be placed casually on the ground and the hydraulic supports will be automatically propped up by pressing the remote control switch.
Outside the tent, there were three off-road vehicles parked. The wheels of two of them had sunk into the salt crust. Although the other one was intact, it was stuck in place and could not move.
In addition, there were some professional exploration equipment scattered on the ground. Some people lit stoves with solid fuel for heating, and some people were repairing lighting equipment. There were also some people who drank too much and stood there pointing at the sky and cursing.
Full of foul language.
Obviously, this is a geological expedition team stuck here. I don’t know what happened, but they were led here by the woman with white makeup. As a result, they became the victims of this gamble.
After I got close to the expedition team, I stopped going forward. No matter what, this was the venue for the seventh gambling game, and it was not my turn to save people anyway.
If I can't help but take action, I will definitely be regarded as meddling in the gambling game. Not only will I not be able to save people, but it will also directly cause Batugar's failure.
Thinking of this, I turned off the light and stood on the sand dune to take a closer look.
Looking at it, I realized that there were only eleven people in this group.
There were two men who abandoned themselves with wine bottles and had distorted faces, and four people in jackets who were checking various instruments. There were also people who had modified vehicles and people who were sick in the tent, totaling exactly eleven people.
I don’t know whether the two younger ones were killed by the woman with white makeup or rescued by Batugar.
I squinted my eyes and looked carefully, and suddenly I heard someone behind me say: "Young man, you are here."
This sound was so sudden that I was startled when it first appeared. I almost hit it without using the stick. But when I turned around and looked, I finally stopped abruptly.
This is a very handsome young man.
His sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, firm lines on his face, and slightly pursed lips give people a very stable feeling. He is tall and tall. When he stands there, his waist is straight and his limbs are coordinated. He looks perfect.
In the middle of the night, in the Ten Thousand Demons Pit, such a strange and handsome young man actually appeared. I was really confused about what was going on. Judging from the coordination of yin and yang in his body and his vitality, he should be a standard living person, but not
I know what's going on, but this person always gives me a very strange feeling.
After thinking about it carefully, I realized that this weirdness actually comes from his perfection.
That's right, is there any absolutely perfect person or thing in this world? As long as it is an individual, there will always be flaws of one kind or another. Even the ancient emperors would make a notch in the golden bowl when eating, which meant that they did not dare to pursue perfection.
To avoid being punished by God.
How can this guy be so perfect?
I was surprised and asked, "What do you call sir?"
The man smiled and said: "The opposite."
As soon as I heard this name, I knew it was not a good thing, and it was definitely not his real name. At that moment, I sneered and said, "What are you doing here, sir?"
The smile on the negative person's face remained unchanged and he said, "I want to see the outcome of this bet with you."
He looked past me, directly towards the camp in front, and said, "This is a survey team from China Mining. They have been trapped here for two days."
I looked at him warily but said nothing.
The naysayer looked at me with a smile and said, "Zhang Wuxin, do you think people's hearts are good or evil?"
He actually knew that my name was Zhang Wuxin? This title made me even more wary. While thinking about his origin, I replied with a sneer: "In the beginning, human beings are inherently good."
The negative person continued: "Do people's hearts tend to be good? Well, if that were true, maybe there would be a lot less disputes in the world. But in my opinion, people's hearts are inherently evil. Before facing death and fear, living people can do anything.
Come out."
I sneered and said: "When you say this, it sounds like you are not a living person?"
The negative person shook his head: "I am not a living person. In the Ten Thousand Demon Pit, even if there are living people, they have already become living dead without any will."
I sarcastically said: "What qualifications does a person who is not even a living person have to judge a living person?"
The naysayer smiled slightly, but was not angry. Instead, he sat on the sand dune minding his own business, changed the topic, and said, "Tell me, who can win between Batugar and Xiaochong?"
I said proudly: "Of course Batugar can win! Even if a bug turns into insect resentment after death, how can it be compared to the most outstanding shaman today?"
The naysayer shook his head and said, "Look below."
I turned around and happened to see a woman wearing mountaineering clothing walking out of the tent. As soon as she came out, the busy survey team members immediately looked at her.
The voice of one of them came along the night wind, saying angrily: "Anan, the guide is not dead yet?"
Someone else sneered: "Even if he doesn't die, he will definitely sit through the jail after he returns! He deliberately led us to death, maybe he is not a saboteur from abroad, right?"
A man wearing a peaked cap shouted: "That's enough! Guide Zavi didn't do it on purpose! The magnetic field in this area is disordered, which not only makes the instrument ineffective, but also affects people's magnetic field. Long before he came in, didn't Guide Zavi
Did you say that? You can't enter here, you have to come in!"
The first man sneered and said: "Captain, you are still speaking for him now. Isn't it because the guide messed up that we are in this situation? Now it's good, two of the three cars were stuck, and one of them moved.
No! Everyone is complaining about the sky and the sky, and the earth and the earth are not working properly. If you run out of food and water, you will die here!"
I frowned slightly, but I heard the naysayer say softly: "That's how people are. When they are in desperate situations and on the verge of death, they will always burst out with all kinds of negative emotions. This is the evil of human nature. Zhang Wuxin,
Before they entered the Ten Thousand Demons Pit, the guide tried their best to stop them, but they didn't listen."
"Until now, the convoy is stuck here, but some people blamed the guide and seriously injured him alive."
I was horrified and said, "Did they attack the guide?"
The naysayer smiled and said: "Of course. The magnetic field of the Ten Thousand Demons Pit is disordered, which can affect people's brains and release the evil hidden in the hearts of living people. It is normal for them to be trapped here and vent their anger on the guide."
After a pause, he added: "Now, guess what, will the guide turn into a ghost after his death? Will he kill everyone in the expedition team to avenge himself?"
I didn’t look at the tent under the dune. Instead, I stared at the villain and said word by word: “Who the hell are you!”
The naysayer tilted his head and looked at me, smiled and said, "I am your question maker. Your opponent in the tenth gambling game."
Hearing his words, I almost jumped up from the ground. What did he say? He is my question maker? My opponent in the tenth gambling game?
What an international joke! Is he alive or dead?
My face suddenly changed color, I took three steps back in a row, looked at the other person in disbelief, and was speechless for a moment.
On the other hand, the opponent was very calm and said nonchalantly: "Don't get excited. Our bet hasn't started yet, so you don't have to worry about me hurting you. But I just can't help it and want to see who my opponent is."
"Well, I originally thought it was Yu Buren. After all, he has studied with that guy for three years and is already qualified to bet against me. But I really didn't expect that the final opponent would be you. The exorcist named Zhang Wuren
, very powerful!”
I remembered that when Zhang Wuren arranged the order of the gambling games, he once said that he wanted me to bet on the last game. Later, Yu Buren seemed to want to switch with me, but Zhang Wuren refused.
Now it seems that Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua know something that I don't know.
My heart was in turmoil, but I quickly calmed down. Since he was my opponent, it was useless for me to be afraid. On the contrary, I might as well take it calmly, so as not to be underestimated by others.
I said: "No matter whether you are a participant in the tenth gambling game or not, since you are here to watch the show, you must have the consciousness to watch the show! If you dare to interfere in this gambling game, don't blame me for being rude!"
The naysayer laughed out loud and said: "Intervene? No no! That's impossible. I'm just here to show you human nature, so that you can have a complete understanding of living people."
He pointed to the camp under the dunes and said, "Look, they have already started to quarrel."
At the bonfire in the middle of the tent, all the survivors of the survey team gathered here. Among them was an old Uighur who was dying, with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
The old man had deep wrinkles on his face, his eyes were open, and his eyes were full of fear. He was whimpering something in a low voice. Although I couldn't hear it clearly, I could tell that he was begging for mercy.
The naysayers said, “Guess what they’re going to do next?”
I saw that his smile was extremely treacherous, and his tone was full of gloating, so I couldn't help but sneered: "You use the special magnetic field of the Ten Thousand Demons Pit to influence the thinking of living people, and you want to use this to determine the inherent evil of human nature?"
The contrarian shook his head: "No, no, the magnetic field is just a mirror. It will reflect the darkness in people's hearts and emerge. You have to know that there is a devil hidden in everyone's heart, including you!"
"This bet between Batu Gal and Xiaochong will definitely result in Batu Gal losing! If you don't believe it, just look at it!"
I subconsciously turned around and looked around, and immediately discovered that someone had lit a second bonfire with gasoline. The flames were blazing, reflecting the ferocious faces of every survey team member.
Two of them untied the guide's clothes and scratched them with knives a few times, as if they were outlining some kind of mark. Because they were so far away, I couldn't see clearly what they were writing.
Then everyone swarmed up, lifted up the skinny old guide, and walked quickly towards the fire.
I was so frightened that I was about to burn the seriously injured old guide alive! This was fucking murder!
The negative person took a look at me and said, "That's actually how people are. As long as they have a chance to survive, they won't care about other people's lives."
"The people in the exploration team have been out all year round, and they know a set of folk remedies of buying life for life. They know that they are in a desperate situation and have caused countless deaths, so they want to burn the first outsider as a sacrifice in exchange for their own
Chance of survival.”
"Zhang Wuxin, have you seen this? This is human nature! This is a living person! Batugar is destined to lose in this bet!"
