Reincarnation Train Restart [Unlimited]
Chapter 84
It was okay at first, they walked forward along the original road for a certain distance, but before they had gone far, they began to "backward" unknowingly.
Obviously, in their perception and eyes, they have been walking forward, and they have never looked back.
However, every time they walk a certain distance, Zhuangfu Village will suddenly appear in front of their eyes, close at hand, as if they have never been far away.
They seemed to be in a maze and couldn't get out.
Once again "turning back" and returning to the outside of Zhuangfu Village, Wu Xiajiu took out the compass and looked at it. The pointer on it was still spinning wildly, unable to point the direction at all.
After looking at it for a while, it was useless, so Wu Xiajiu could only stuff the compass back into his arms.
He raised his head and looked at the sky, it was gloomy and dim, and the sun had already slanted to the west, almost disappearing down the mountain.
If they can't get out of this maze, I'm afraid they will stay here after dark.
And what's in Zhuangfu Village, they already know it all too well.
The situation in front of them undoubtedly exceeded their expectations.
Mr. V said in a deep voice, "Let's try another route."
There was another rugged path leading to Zhuangfu Village, but before coming here, two servants of the Cheng family said that this path was dangerous and difficult.
Although it is closer to Zhuangfu Town, jackals may appear during the day and night.
Especially at night, it seems that it is easy to encounter ghosts hitting the wall, so it is best not to go.
Therefore, due to taboo, the two servants of the Cheng family did not choose this path to lead the way during the day.
But now, Wu Xiajiu and others have been unable to get out of the range of Zhuangfu Village. Since this road is blocked, they can only change directions and try to see if they can leave.
"Let's go."
Shi's deputy team took the lead on this road, and immediately, Wu Xiajiu and others followed behind.
However, they didn't go far, and they stopped soon.
"This is..." Jack looked at the ground ahead in surprise.
Right in front of them, there were two very familiar packages scattered on the ground.
Dry food, incense candles, etc. fell out of the package, and the soil around the package clearly showed signs of struggle.
There are also traces of dragging in the direction of Zhuangfu Village, from conspicuous to vague, and then gradually disappearing.
No wonder when they walked over just now, they saw dirt marks that seemed to be dragged across their feet.
Wang Xiaoming couldn't help opening his eyes wide and said: "This, this is the belongings of those two servants of the Cheng family. Could it be that...are they dead? Or were they taken away by something?"
Puzzled, he circled around the two packages and looked into the distance following the fading traces of dragging.
——There is the direction they came from just now, Zhuangfu Village.
Could it be that the two servants of the Cheng family were taken to Zhuangfu Village? !
Wu Xiajiu frowned and said, "They must have encountered something, maybe it's the same as us."
"They wanted to escape, but they couldn't escape the previous path, so they also changed to another path, which was this one, but..."
Wu Xia paused for a long time, but did not continue talking.
"It's people who captured them." At this moment, the deputy captain said.
"How do you know it's a human and not something else?" Professor Tang asked.
Deputy Team Shi: "They are waiting outside Zhuangfu Village, and we are inside Zhuangfu Village."
"Although we were located far away from the entrance of the village, if the two servants of the Cheng family encountered something weird, it would be impossible for them to leave Zhuangfu village alive."
"It's even more impossible to run away without yelling. We didn't hear any movement in Zhuangfu Village."
"Besides, since they said they would wait for us to come out before dark, they shouldn't dare to leave early."
"The only one who can prevent the two servants of the Cheng family from yelling in fright, but dare not stay outside Zhuangfu Village to wait any longer, can only be human beings."
When Mr. V heard this, his face was not very good-looking and he said: "In other words, controlling the zombies to attack the dealer and the Cheng family, and now turning Zhuangfu Village into a nest of Gu insects, the people behind these things are in the Zhuangfu In the village?"
"Even while we were looking around in Zhuangfu Village, 'he' even played tricks on the two servants of the Cheng family, threatening them to flee for their lives, but took them back after giving them a little hope."
"They couldn't get around Zhuangfu Village anyway, and brought them back when they were desperate and frightened..."
The thought of a person secretly watching them enter Zhuangfu Village, secretly watching their every move, and arresting two servants of the Cheng family while they were probing everywhere...
They couldn't help feeling chills down their spines, feeling a little scared.
Wu Xiajiu frowned at this moment and said: "In the yizhuang of Zhuangfu Village, those coffins are all empty. I was still wondering why they were empty, and whether they contained Gu people or zombies."
"Now that I think about it, it's probably a zombie. The centipede and scorpion in Yizhuang should be refining Zombie Gu."
"But before we came, the zombies in Zhuangfu Village were moved away by the person behind."
Wang Xiaoming couldn't help trembling his lips and said: "But, but how did 'he' know that we are coming to Zhuangfu Village?"
"Didn't Director Li and Police Chief Cheng have closely monitored everyone in the Cheng family? Even if someone wanted to report in advance, it would be impossible for them to come out."
"What's more, where is that person hiding in Zhuangfu Village? Why haven't we found it all this time?"
Could this be a trap specially prepared for them?
Wu Xiajiu: "Now is not the time to discuss these things. I don't think we will be able to get out of the vicinity of Zhuangfu Village tonight."
"Why don't you think about it, how should we last until dawn."
As he spoke, he unloaded the bamboo basket behind his back and put it on the ground, and found things such as red string and cinnabar from it.
"What are you going to do?" Professor Tang asked.
Wu Xiajiu replied: "Be prepared, we all predicted wrongly. We thought we might deal with zombies when we came to Zhuangfu Village, but now the zombies are gone, but there are Gu insects and Gu people everywhere in Zhuangfu Village."
"I don't know if the things we prepared are still useful, but anyway, we have to give it a try."
He soaked the red string in cinnabar, folded the talisman paper into a triangular shape, and took out the copper coins.
Wu Xiajiu said: "The cinnabar and the red rope can ward off evil spirits, while money can enlighten the spirit."
"Especially the copper coins, the outer circle and the inner square represent heaven and earth, and the year number or characters on it represent people. Heaven, earth, and people are complete, which means turning the world around."
"If there are more people handling copper coins, there will be more yang energy on them. Generally, the older the copper coins, the better the effect of warding off evil spirits."
Wang Xiaoming suddenly sighed, and said: "No wonder you picked a bunch of broken copper coins from the money bag before you came, but are these useful for Gu worms?"
Wu Xiajiu raised his eyes and said: "I'm not sure if it will work or not, but I have to try it, even if it only has an early warning effect, it's enough."
"What's more, I don't know if the cinnabar and copper coins can break the maze here."
Upon seeing this, Wang Xiaoming, Professor Tang and others also followed suit.
Afterwards, they brought their things and went to the previous original road. Copper coins were already threaded on the red rope soaked in cinnabar, and the talisman paper folded into a triangular shape was tied.
Wu Xiajiu connected all the red ropes, and on the part of the road where they would turn back inexplicably, he wrapped the red ropes around one tree after another until all the red ropes were used up.
Immediately afterwards, he took out the Bagua mirror he bought from the bamboo basket, and hung it on a tree, within the range of the red rope.
He said: "See if we can go out now, if not, we will rest here tonight."
It's a pity that this maze doesn't seem to be so easy to decipher. They are still going around, and they can't get around the range of Zhuangfu Village.
By this time, the sky was completely dark.
A howl of a wolf came from nowhere, against the backdrop of the desolation and depth around them, they didn't have the strength or mood to continue looking for a way out.
But not long after they sat and rested within the range of the red rope, they heard a bird's cry in the sky.
Wu Xiajiu raised his head suddenly, it was the cry of a crow.
One after another, there is a sense of mournfulness.
Especially as the voice was gradually approaching, one couldn't help feeling a little ominous in one's heart.
In the pitch-black night sky, black shadows streaked across the sky continuously, and then fell one after another, just landing on the trees surrounding Wu Xiajiu and others.
I don't know if it was because of the trembling of the treetops, but the red rope tied to it began to vibrate, and the copper coins bumped and collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
Wu Xiajiu waited for the others to stand up slowly, with a dignified expression and a tense body.
The six people circled around with their backs facing each other, looking at the surrounding trees——
In such a short period of time, those tree trunks and treetops were almost full of crows, and their pitch-black figures almost merged with the night.
Even if he couldn't see the eyes of these crows clearly, Wu Xiajiu could clearly feel the countless gazes cast from the trees.
It was a staring full of malice and blood, as if piercing the skin like a needle, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Before anyone could utter a word of caution, the crows flew up again without any warning.
They didn't want to fly away, but rushed forward to attack Wu Xiajiu and the others.
The shrill cry of crows rang through my ears continuously, feathers fluttered under the moonlight, and the sharp claws and beaks of crows hurt people painfully.
If they didn't pay attention, their clothes would be scratched, and there would be a bloodstain on their bodies.
These crows seem to be forcing them to leave the range surrounded by the red rope.
Misfortunes never come singly, the mahogany swords they used to resist seemed to be of no use to these crows.
With a sound of "click", the mahogany sword in Wang Xiaoming's hand was continuously attacked by several crows and snapped off with their sharp claws.
Seeing this, Mr. V threw the mahogany sword in his hand to Wang Xiaoming.
He had already taken out the prop "Dragon Scale Dagger" to resist, but unfortunately, although the dagger was easy to use, there were too many crows.
And Wu Xiajiu also took out the prop "a keel".
But I don't know if it's because crows are not counted as "special creatures", the keel can't drive these crows away at all.
That's right, there is a layer of separation between the aquatic creatures and the ones flying in the sky. Although these crows are weird, they are not ghosts.
"I can't go on like this. There are so many crows that we can't finish hunting them. If we don't run, we will either be pecked to death by them or caught to death. Hurry up!" Jack shouted.
Helpless, they had to be forced to leave the range of the red rope.
Under the continuous pursuit of this group of crows, there is only one way to retreat to Zhuangfu Village.
Are these crows forcing them into Zhuangfu Village?
Obviously, in their perception and eyes, they have been walking forward, and they have never looked back.
However, every time they walk a certain distance, Zhuangfu Village will suddenly appear in front of their eyes, close at hand, as if they have never been far away.
