Endless route

Chapter 42 3. Evil ways

The group of people kept walking deeper. What they saw along the way was unbearable, but they couldn't fault it because this place had long been bought by the West.

Moreover, the West makes trouble for itself more.

The ancient oriental style buildings are hostels and hotels.

The Western-style buildings are all themed bars, and some of the role players are half-dressed.

It focuses on a free, liberating and rebellious style, with a hippie feel, which can well reflect the mental state of Western literary and artistic youth.

The 3,000 buildings built in Qianfukuo City near the sea were put on hold. The wealthy few could complete the construction with their own money and did not let this happen.

For example, the most magnificent ones.

But the small sects that were mainly funded at that time had no choice but to remain abandoned until modern times. The West bought it and repaired it themselves, and no one could control it no matter how hard it was.

It didn't take long to walk forward.

Most of their group of tourists who had gotten off the cruise ship had dispersed and headed into the streets, each with their own goals and what to do.

Zheng Yun and his group bought umbrellas at a convenience store. Some of them had already left on their own. Liu Ming was also interested and wanted to find a girl to pick up in a bar.

Only Song Wan, who was not feeling well, and a couple in the team were left, and they planned to find a place to stay until the storm passed before coming out.

Zheng Yun pulled out his adoptive father's route map. It was a local map. His adoptive father had drawn three circles at several locations, with numbers one, two, and three written in his hand.

These places are all deep.

If you want to go deep, you can only take a car, but the rain is getting heavier and heavier, so Zheng Yun and Song Wan first found a hotel and planned to get up tomorrow.

…

At dawn, Zheng Yun was drowsily asleep and felt his door being knocked again. He frowned and opened the door, only to find Liu Ming with a serious expression again:

Zheng Yun, something big happened.

What's wrong?

Zheng Yun was so frightened by his words that he immediately woke up, because the last time he heard these words, all his teammates disappeared.

Didn't I hear a cry for help from the intercom last night? Look at this maritime announcement.

Liu Ming took out his cell phone.

Zheng Yun took a closer look, and the general idea was that several ships were lost in the storm last night, and he hoped that nearby ships could go to search for rescue.

Several locations are marked on the news.

The latest missing ship was only forty nautical miles away from the sea area where they were last night.

There is also a luxury cruise ship that disappeared in the middle of Qianzhou Strait with more than 1,000 passengers.

This kind of news makes people feel scared. If they had been a few hours late, they might have become one of them and disappeared in the storm.

Do you suspect that the cry for help you heard last night came from the nearest ship? Zheng Yun asked with a frown.

At that time last night, the storm might have covered it. If not, it might have been the luxury cruise ship. Liu Ming nodded seriously.

Can that small walkie-talkie of yours receive signals from dozens or hundreds of nautical miles away? Zheng Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head. Liu Ming was so frightened that he became a little confused.

Return to the room and look out the window.

The rain has become lighter, but there are still heavy clouds overhead, and dark clouds are still billowing at the end of the sea.

It is very difficult to rescue at sea in this kind of weather. The key is that not many ships are willing to go.

Theoretically it's impossible, but similar phenomena have occurred near the Sea of ​​Mist, and no one can say for sure.

Liu Ming followed Zheng Yun into the room, his expression still serious, always thinking about the cry for help.

Don't think too much, we can't help it. Even if it is, you can't make the captain turn around.

Zheng Yun patted him on the shoulder. Accidents on the sea were not decided by humans. The ship was not their own. No matter how much they cared about it, it would be in vain.

It's not that I thought too much. The main reason is that the cry for help was so weird that it has always been burned into people's minds.

Liu Ming sighed and picked up the map Zheng Yun put on the table: What place did you draw? Are you planning to visit these places?

Well, I'm going to go alone.

Zheng Yun turned around and started packing his things. The black jade pillow was packed in a waterproof bag and was never taken out at the bottom of the backpack. He mainly put the dagger in the mezzanine.

Is there any explanation for this? Liu Ming was surprised.

It's hard to say. There should be no explanation. Zheng Yun shook his head. There are all possibilities for the places where his adoptive father has been, but Qianfu City shouldn't matter.

So many tourists.

There could be something weird about it.

Then let's go together and invite Song Wan too. There's no point in wandering around elsewhere.

Hearing that Zheng Yun's tone was relatively loose, Liu Ming became more courageous and became more curious. He wanted to follow Zheng Yun to learn more and see what was going on.

Moreover, having more people is definitely better than having fewer people. If something happens, Zheng Yun can have more helpers.

There is no way this time will be the same as last time. Before they even figured out what was going on, they were all possessed by the Yin soldiers and became Zheng Yun's burden, right?

Zheng Yun thought about it carefully. There shouldn't be a big problem here, so he nodded.

More than ten minutes passed.

Zheng Yun set off with Liu Ming, Song Wan and the couple. Song Wan had recovered from her sleep and was in good spirits. She was probably just afraid of the sea.

They want to go to the first circle on the map, which takes about ten minutes by car, and they still need to walk after that.

The road is uphill all the way, the plants on the left and right are growing tall, the ancient buildings are filled with modern buildings, and the streets are full of tourists of various ethnic groups.

Soon the group got off the bus.

Zheng Yun lowered his head and looked at the map. The circle drawn by his adoptive father was very large. It seemed that he had drawn it casually. Almost all the streets and alleys next to him were drawn into it.

Don't know which one it is.

Then you can only look for them one by one.

A few people walked into the street. The first one along the street was a dojo that was transformed into an open-air hot spring. The architectural style was very oriental and elegant, but nothing special.

The second store is a weird building. Even with Zheng Yun's knowledge, he can't figure it out. It seems that the style is from a store in ancient Southeast Asia, selling weird jewelry.

After that there is a gap.

It took a few minutes to walk to the next one.

The third house was a small courtyard. The door was closed and locked. When I peeked through the crack of the door, there were a lot of gray statues inside, all two meters high. They were in oriental style, but Zheng Yun had never seen them before. Pass.

The fourth house also has countless roads. It looks like a dojo. The door plaque has Chinese, Sanskrit and English, but the English font is the largest, with the four words Bliss Ascension to Heaven written on it.

Bliss ascends to heaven...

Zheng Yun felt that there was something wrong with this home, so he went in and took a look around. He was shocked as soon as he entered the hospital.

Because there are a large number of empty sitting jars in the courtyard, which are used by monks to sit and perform rituals. They are placed directly on the ground and are placed all over the courtyard.

Glancing at the attic door again, Zheng Yun's expression changed drastically and he immediately led the people out of the place.

Zheng Yun, what the hell are these places? The roads are not straight. Liu Ming was so frightened that his face turned pale.

He saw it too.

The attic is transparent from top to bottom.

There is nothing on the first floor, but on the wall of the second floor above the head, there is a circle of dead people, all of them modern Westerners. Everyone sits cross-legged and cross-legged, with an extremely happy smile on their face.

Those people have very oily faces.

The smile was so twisted that it looked fake.

The attic was already spooky, and when they glanced over it, they couldn't tell whether it was a real dead person or a weird wax figure.

Can't tell.

Zheng Yun shook his head. Whether it was true or false, this place was too weird and there was clearly something wrong.

Brother Zheng, there is another house ahead. Song Wan pointed forward and had reached the end of the street.

Among the thick weeds, there is a gym with the courtyard door half-opened. It is very large, with some bells hanging on the eaves, and monkeys running around in the courtyard.

There were some ghost patterns painted on the bell, which looked like it was not serious at first glance.

...

Zheng Yun took a deep breath.

The roads in this place are so strange that Zheng Yun wanted to use a black jade pillow to enter the secret realm and bring the fat Taoist priest guarding the 'Tiangong' over so that he could explain it.

At present, it seems that what dominates the Qianfu City of Magpie Nest is not only the messy Western entertainment, but also some crooked ways.

I don’t know if Westerners are stupid, stupid, bad, or just really don’t understand, but this kind of thing can be opened in broad daylight at tourist attractions?

My adoptive father has told similar stories before.

If you encounter these things, it's best to order them easily. Most of them are harmful things.

The sea guards also have similar responsibilities. If they encounter such a thing, they will definitely kill it. Just like the Yin soldiers in Hades Pavilion, they must not let it harm anyone.

Now there is one more problem.

The adoptive father drew a circle around this place. Did he draw a target and not come, or did he come but didn't click?

He left the black jade pillow to himself, as well as the ferry ticket and route map. Could it be that he wanted to do it himself? Let it wipe out all these places?

It’s not impossible.

But what exactly did the adoptive father think?

Could it be that I was really asked to take over? But is it Lao Jiang’s class or Triton’s class?
