Gu Zhuo sped up the car, and on the way there, he made a guess to Chao Ying.
She saw that Gu Zhuo had hung up the phone before she expressed her suspicion.
The little boss is definitely dead, there is no doubt about it, but he can call again, and his memory is still stuck on yesterday. It is most likely because of the existence of space cracks, which caused time and space turbulence nearby.
Chaoying couldn't explain exactly what impact the turbulence of time and space would have, but at least it would definitely cause some chaos.
In other words, the caller was indeed a ghost.
But it is not the kind of ghost that people think of in the traditional sense. Chaoying would like to call him:
Ghosts of time and space.
After hearing her explanation, Gu Zhuo felt that this was the most reasonable one.
In addition, Chaoying also told him that the existence of space-time ghosts is precisely the evidence that the space crack still exists. And it is very likely that the quicksand is very close to the space crack.
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo sped up even more and rushed towards the coordinates.
After driving for less than ten minutes, the originally silent phone rang again, and Gu Zhuo had a bad feeling in his heart.
He took a look at the caller number, and sure enough, it was that man again!
His scalp was numb, and when he connected the phone, there was another sound of electricity and a strange "rustling" sound, as if something was constantly rubbing underneath.
"Help...help..."
It was the familiar cry for help again.
"His grandma, are you bothered? Gu Zhuo has already rushed over! How many times do you want to call!"
Chen Haidao answered him angrily.
The man's tone was still flustered:
"Gu Zhuo is here? How do you know what happened to me?"
Chen Haidao had such a bad temper that he wanted to pull him out and beat him up over the phone:
"Because this is your third fucking time! Are you kidding me here?"
"How is that possible? I just hit..."
Halfway through his words, he remembered something more important:
"No matter what, come and save me! I really don't want to die!"
"We are on our way there. Calm down. I will ask you a few questions first. You must answer me truthfully. These questions are very important."
Chaoying's voice sounded, seeming to calm his emotions.
"Ah good."
The man tried his best to stay rational and answered Chaoying.
"Let me ask you, what else is there besides quicksand?"
"what else..."
The man paused for a moment, seemed to glance around, and then said:
"It's just quicksand, sand, dunes, nothing."
"Nothing unusual?"
"No, sister, there's nothing!"
Listening to his voice, it seemed like he was about to cry.
Chaoying and Gu Zhuo looked at each other, and it was obvious that she didn't ask anything.
"Oh, one thing is that this piece of quicksand was originally hidden here and could not be seen at all. When the car first sunk in, it was still very small and the scope was small. As a result, the car sank deeper and deeper, and the scope of the quicksand became wider and wider.
It’s bigger!”
As the man spoke, he took a deep breath, as if he had discovered something.
"Damn it, now this quicksand seems to be everywhere I can see, and the dunes have all sunk in!"
Hearing this, Chaoying hurriedly asked:
"It's everywhere you can see, are you sure!?"
"That's right! When I looked over it, it was all sinking sand!"
As he spoke, the man burst into tears,
"Come and save me, come and save me, please, I'm so scared, I'm falling faster now..."
Listening to his crying, no one spoke, and Chen Haidao seemed to have hung up the phone directly.
Chaoying glanced at Gu Zhuo and saw that Gu Zhuo also had a serious expression and was frowning.
The man cried on the phone for a while, and then screamed again. Amid the screams, Gu Zhuo and the others were left with another never-ending "rustling" sound.
"Gu Zhuo, hurry up and get there."
Wan Sui spoke on the phone for the first time, and even she couldn't stand this man's repeated torture.
"Um."
Gu Zhuo answered her and then drove the car faster.
The phone was hung up collectively once again.
"A piece of sinking quicksand...with no end in sight..."
Chaoying murmured in his mouth, repeating what the man just said.
Gu Zhuo didn't bother her, he just kept speeding towards the coordinates.
"I think the space crack must be near that quicksand."
Chaoying said suddenly.
"It's near that quicksand? Are you sure?"
"Yes, after we go there, we may search carefully and find some clues."
"good."
Gu Zhuo nodded. No matter whether it was near the space crack or not, he had to go and have a look. The whole thing was too weird.
However, they all ignored one thing, and that was the strange, constant friction sound during the third phone call.
When the car drove for a few more minutes and got closer and closer to the coordinates, the phone rang again.
"Damn it, why did the phone ring again!?"
Gu Zhuo glanced at the phone, and sure enough, it was the man calling again.
He was so haunted that Gu Zhuo could almost memorize the number.
"I don't want to answer it. It's probably just a bunch of repetitive words."
Gu Zhuo wanted to ignore it, but Chao Ying said:
"Take it, what if there are new clues?"
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo had no choice but to answer the call reluctantly. He originally thought that when the call was connected, it would be the man's sad cry for help.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I connected the phone, there was a noisy and noisy electric current that was even more chaotic than the previous times, and there was also a friction sound that was so loud that it was completely impossible to ignore.
The friction sound was like the sound of many shelled bugs gathering together, their shells rubbing against their shells, and making a swarm sound. It was very uncomfortable to hear, and it gave a feeling of soreness in the roots of the teeth.
This sound filled my whole brain, reminding me of very disgusting images.
"WTF?"
Gu Zhuo frowned in disgust.
"Hey, hey!"
He shouted several times into the phone.
"save..."
The man's voice sounded, but it was much weaker than the previous times, and it was mixed in the noise, making it impossible to hear what he was saying.
"What did you say! Make your voice louder!"
Gu Zhuo almost yelled into the phone.
"Save me...heavy..."
The man tried his best, but Gu Zhuo could only hear these three words clearly.
"Can't hear, can't hear!"
He could only shout into the phone over and over again, trying to ask for something more.
The man opposite finally used all his strength and roared for the last time before his death:
"...Heavy..."
Then, I heard a "crack" sound, as if something had bitten the skull into pieces.
Following that sound, the phone was suddenly hung up.
This call was shorter than the previous three calls, but the shock it brought was greater than the previous three calls.
"..."
Gu Zhuo heard clearly that except for the dead man, none of the other people hung up the phone. Their heavy breathing came from the phone.
"Gu Zhuo, how long do you have to get there?"
Finally, it was Wansui who asked him.
"About twenty minutes at the latest."
Gu Zhuo answered her.
He was already driving pretty fast. He was far away from there, and there were no landmarks to help him identify the direction. He was just looking at the coordinates on his phone and rushing there.
"Okay, we'll be there soon..."
Wansui's voice was very soft and didn't sound very good.
She just asked Zuo Qing to sense it, and the result of the sense was that there were no strange corpses at all in the direction where the call came from. The corpses that could be felt there were all sent by Zuo Qing.
But that person was clearly dead, and had died three times. There was no way there was no body.
Unless there is something there that can block Zuo Qing's perception, or...
The man's body had been completely destroyed.
In short, no matter which possibility it is, it is not a good thing. Now we can only place our hope on Gu Zhuo and let him get there quickly.
And here, Gu Zhuo's speed is also accelerating.
He recalled the words he just heard from the man:
"Heavy..."
He murmured, thinking about what the word "emphasis" meant.
Is it starting over?
Did this man realize that he was in a loop?
Just when he was puzzled, Chaoying spoke up and told him:
"He should be talking about insects."
"insect?"
"Well, the scratching sound on the phone is like a lot of bugs gathering together. I'm not sure. I can only express my feelings..."
Chaoying replied, looking at her expression with seriousness.
"Are space cracks related to bugs? I haven't heard of any bugs. They live exclusively in deserts."
Gu Zhuo was a little confused.
"I don't know either. It may be caused by the distortion of space cracks. I just don't know why this phenomenon occurs. It's so strange..."
Hearing this, Gu Zhuo calmed her down a bit, which was also considered to appease himself:
"No matter what, I don't know anything now, and I can't guess it just by guessing. Let's wait until we see it."
After saying that, he stepped on the accelerator and rushed there at a faster speed.
