Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 225 Hide and Seek
Before those gunmen pulled the trigger, Chen Chuan moved first, rushing forward suddenly, but these people seemed to be able to barely keep up with his movements, and flames instantly burst out from the muzzles of their guns.

Chen Chuan simply raised his arms to cover his head and face, and ignored other parts of his body. When the bullets hit his body, he only felt some parts of his protective suit jump slightly, and then more bullets fell down.

At this moment, he spun around suddenly with the knife in his hand. The knife flashed and there was a sound as if a mixture of human bodies, guns, metals, leather, etc. was cut. A knife mark appeared on the walls of the carriage on both sides in an instant.

The row of gunmen in front paused for a moment, then their upper bodies fell down in unison, and all the items they were holding were cut smoothly along a perfectly smooth cutting line.

Chen Chuan looked straight ahead, leaped forward, the blade flashing around him, and rushed forward like rolling snow. When he stepped forward, the carriages behind him were already littered with broken limbs and bodies.

At this moment, they had arrived at the third-to-last carriage. There were no seats here. The three people in the front were holding shields in front of them, while someone in the back was holding a gun to the heads of those company representatives.

But despite being manipulated like this, the representatives continued to repeat themselves.

Those members of the resistance organization thought it was fun and interesting at first, but now they just feel bored and want to shoot them all to pieces.

Bao Yuan stood behind the crowd, looking at Chen Chuan in surprise and doubt. He gritted his teeth. This matter had already been successful. He even sent out the telegram. He didn't expect that at this time a fighter who was suspected to be at the third level would come out and cause trouble.

He was not sure whether this was someone Yang Zhishi had originally arranged to guard the train or if it was premeditated. Now he didn't have to think too much about it, because the most important hostage was already in his hands.

He shouted, "Stop! Are you from Yangzhi City Government? These are representatives of various companies. If you take another step forward, they will be dead! You are fast, but we are not slow either. You can bet on whether we pull the trigger faster or you are faster!"

He was not completely bluffing, because when they noticed the gunshots outside, the elite members of their team had already taken the medicine in time. Now they all had red eyes, were in a highly alert and excited state, and could barely keep up with Chen Chuan's movements.

Chen Chuan seemed not to hear his words. He swung his long knife and continued to move forward. Seeing that he was unmoved, Bao Yuan immediately raised his gun and shot one of the company representatives to death with a bang.

He said sternly, "I'm not kidding. These are representatives of foreign companies. If they die here, you can't afford the responsibility! Get out now, or none of these people will survive!"

The effect of the medicine is limited. If they don't let Chen Chuan see their determination and keep waiting here until the effect of the medicine is exhausted, they will surely die.

Chen took a look, stopped, and then slowly backed away. Everyone looked at him nervously, but when they saw him walking back, they felt a little relieved.

Chen Chuan looked calm. He needed to resolve the matter as soon as possible. Tantric rituals also had an invasive effect. If it dragged on for a long time, even if the passengers were lucky enough to wake up afterwards, it would probably cause irreversible damage.

Compared with the passengers in front, the company representatives in front of them are only a minority. If they can be saved, they will be saved. If they cannot be saved, there is nothing that can be done. If the stalemate continues, everyone will be implicated.

If they take action now, they still have a chance to survive.

and so……

He had already retreated to the door at this time, and had a slight distance from Bao Yuan. Then he pushed hard with his feet, and the wooden boards underneath cracked directly. The board walls near the door frame of the carriage twisted and deformed, and he shot forward like a sharp arrow!

At the moment he made the move, the members of the resistance organization opened fire at the target in their hands without hesitation, and amid the sound of gunfire,

Chen Chuan rushed forward directly. No matter the shield in front of him or the human body behind him, they were all knocked away as soon as they came into contact with him. When they landed on the ground, their bones were shattered and their internal organs were broken. The light of Xue Jun's sword burst out, and heads flew up wherever the light passed.

Bao Yuan, who was standing behind, was extremely shocked and angry when he saw Chen Chuan rushing forward recklessly. He roared and punched directly at Chen Chuan. The medicine he took was undoubtedly the best, and his own strength was also the strongest here. This attack was very accurate and powerful.

Chen Chuan took a glance and saw that the skin on the back of his hand was blue, and there was something inside that seemed to be about to burst. Realizing that there was a problem, he did not use the knife to cut directly. Instead, he pushed his elbow outwards and at the same time moved the handle of the knife upwards, using a soft force to push the arm away.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened. With a hissing sound, three tongue whips shot out from Bao Yuan's mouth. One came directly from the front, and the other two penetrated his cheeks and stabbed towards Chen Chuan's head from both sides.

Chen Chuan just dived lightly, and in just one step, he not only avoided all three tongue whip attacks, but also passed by his side. At the same time, he put the blade on Bao Yuan's neck and passed it along with the forward momentum. There was an immediate sound of friction with a hard object.

It can be seen that after the epidermis was scratched there, the black chitinous subcutaneous protective plate was exposed. Chen Chuan's expression remained unchanged. At this time, he twisted his waist and exerted force to drag the knife!

This time, the protective plate could no longer block it, and as the blade slid past, the head was pulled down at once. When it landed on the floor, it bounced and rolled to the side, while the three tongue whips were still swinging there.

Seeing that there were no more living enemies around, Chen Chuan stood up straight. He stared at the tongue whips and recognized the origins of these implants.

"Is this... a Secret Snake Cult implant?"

He had seen Tan Wang's implant shopping list, which had this item on it. The Secret Snake Cult seemed to provide surgical implants to its own people as well as products to others. It was just unknown whether this person had any connection with the Secret Snake Cult or purchased implant services from the Cult.

But this had nothing to do with him. He retracted his gaze, took a few steps, and grabbed the door handle of the rear compartment, intending to see if there were any members of the resistance organization in the back.

But when he opened the door of the carriage, his eyes fixed.

Because opposite him, there were several familiar bodies lying, one was smashed against the wall of the car, and opposite him, another was hit on the head by a stone. On the door of the car next to him, you could still see a knife mark. This was clearly the scene in the first car when he got on the train just now.

But he was clearly in the last few carriages now!

He looked at the second me at this moment and saw that it was flickering, which was a sign of being strongly attacked.

His mind raced as he closed the door, then turned around and looked towards the road, only to find that the scene he saw there was exactly the same as what he had just seen.

He had obviously changed direction, but it still made no difference.

Even if esoteric rituals can cause an impact, most of the spiritual and material effects are relatively weak, so this is not an esoteric ritual, but... a weird story!

Esoteric Buddhism can control strange stories through certain rituals and make use of strange stories, such as the two-faced monster, the mountain ghost in Xieshan, and this one in front of him...

However, he didn't know much about esoteric rituals, but when it came to ghost stories, this was an area he was familiar with.

He thought calmly that this strange story could not have been created out of thin air by the ritual, and there was no esoteric ritual that could do this, so it must have been obtained and restricted from the source of Xieshan.

After a brief recollection, he found a very similar existence in the legend of the Three Mountains - the Maze Road.

According to legend, there is a mountain road on Xie Mountain. Once people walk into it carelessly, no matter whether they go up or down, they will never reach the end. They will just keep going around in circles on that section of the road until they are trapped and die there.

In this ghost story, there is a ghost playing hide-and-seek with people, so if you want to get out, you have to hide in a place where the ghost can't find you, and then you can get out.

But if you really find a place to hide, you may never get out. There is only one way.

He closed his eyes, reached out, grabbed the door handle beside him, turned it, and then stepped out.

When he opened his eyes again, he was in a carriage he had never been to before.

If you encounter a maze, all you need to do is close your eyes and hide in a place where the devils can't catch you, then you can go down the mountain.

However, the most difficult thing here is that it is impossible for people to walk on the mountain road with their eyes closed. If they really do so, they will most likely fall to death. But here on the train, there is no need to worry about this problem.

Of course, only he knew the solution. If it were someone else, they might not be able to get out for a while. The most serious thing about the ghost story is not the ghost story itself, but the constant invasion, so if you delay for a while, you may not be able to bear it.

However, his coming out does not mean that the problem is solved. He has gotten rid of the influence, but others are still deeply involved in it. So this weird story must be solved, and to do this, they need to find the ghost!

He looked around and this should be the second to last carriage, but strangely, the members of the resistance organization showed no signs of coming here, as if they had automatically ignored this place.

But the problem is that even if there are no passengers here, because it involves one's own retreat, under normal circumstances one or two people must be arranged to watch over it.

Considering the situation of the ghost story, he already had the answer in his mind.

He continued walking forward until he reached the last carriage, closed his eyes, grabbed the door handle, turned it, opened it, and then opened his eyes.

There were no seats in the front carriage, only various luggage items placed there. On one of the boxes in the middle, sat a person with a secret ritual pattern painted on his face.

When the man saw Chen Chuan open the door of the carriage, he looked up in astonishment, then stood up and moved back in panic, saying, "You, how could you get here? You, don't come over here."
