Ring of Seven [Online Version]
Chapter 25 The first person
When everyone heard this, they didn't understand the situation for a while.At this moment, the mysterious black cat suddenly jumped onto the table again, and Chen Hao frantically waved it away.I want to move on to the next topic.But the black cat was exceptionally nimble, and landed beside Zhou Jue with a light jump.Meowed towards Zhou Jue coquettishly.Chen Hao threatened Zhou Jue with his eyes, but Zhou Jue didn't dare to protect him.
Zhou Jue saw the cat jumping up and down, and everyone was messed up by the cat.But when he looked into the cat's eyes, for some reason, he always thought of the man who was looking for the cat in the middle of the night last night.He found that the cat had the same mysterious eyes as the man, and he always felt that it was peeping at something.Chen Hao noticed that his eyes were dull, and asked, "Zhou Jue, did something happen to you?"
Zhou Jue managed to recover from his trance, and he hurriedly said, "It can't be regarded as a major event, but I just met a strange person yesterday."
Fat San heard that Zhou Jue also encountered strange things, so he remembered what happened to him, and quickly interjected, "I also encountered a ghost taxi!"
Fat San didn't wait for Zhou Jue to speak, so he couldn't wait to say: "You don't know, when Zhou Jue got out of the car, I started to hear ghost stories on the DVD player in the car. I thought the driver's psychological quality was awesome. , I dare to listen to this in the middle of the night. I didn’t expect that people didn’t listen to it at all, but Teresa Teng. The story is so vague that I can’t remember it, but it seems to keep repeating that one of them is a ghost..."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more emotional he became.In the end, everyone's attention was focused on Fat San's incident, and Zhou Jue felt that there was no need to talk about that weird person.After everyone ordered takeaway and had a meal, Chen Hao finally told everyone his thoughts: "I'm going to take Zhou Jue to Nanjing once."
Thin Monkey and Fat San showed different surprises at the same time, but it was obvious that Skinny Monkey was even more surprised. He said, "Have you forgotten? At the beginning, I also wanted to leave Shanghai, but I couldn't get out at all."
Chen Hao said: "At the beginning you couldn't go out, probably because the time hadn't come yet, but now we have to go to Nanjing anyway. Lao Jiu has already set off, we can't be slower than him."
Although the thin monkey was still not convinced, he bit his lip and finally hummed, reluctantly agreeing.Then Fat San jumped out and said, "It's not that cheap! Why are you two going? Throw me and Skinny Monkey in Shanghai to die?"
Zhou Jue didn't expect Fat San and Shouhou to distrust Chen Hao so much, and hurriedly wanted to come out to smooth things over, but was held down by Shouhou. It seemed that Shouhou was completely on Fat San's side.Zhou Jue had no position to speak, and the atmosphere suddenly became very excited.Chen Hao looked at Fat Three and said, "What do you mean by telling you to wait to die?"
Fat San sneered and sat down on the stool and said, "You guys went to Nanjing, and Lao Jiu went to Nanjing. Why are the two of us staying behind? If that damn thing you mentioned is the key, why don't you snatch it back?" Don't worry, think back to us who were foolishly waiting in Shanghai?"
After finishing speaking, he took a special look at Zhou Jue, and continued: "Don't think that I don't know what you think, you think Zhou Jue is still useful, after all, he discovered this book, and we are not sure whether he put all Tell me all the details. Me and Slender Monkey are different, I was completely involved in it. It was a matter that didn't even make a fart, but now we are going to be finished at any time. You think you just put us on the sidelines and it's over. ?”
There was obvious anger in Chen Hao's eyes, the two sides were at war, and the hand of the thin monkey pressing Zhou Jue's shoulder became heavier and heavier. Chen Hao said, "So you mean to follow?"
Fat San didn't expect him to ask back, and couldn't answer for a while, he glanced at Shouhou, who said firmly, "That's right, the four of us are going together."
Chen Hao said unceremoniously: "If you go this time, you will all die there. Don't regret it."
When Fat San heard this, he felt guilty: "Is it that dangerous?"
Chen Hao said: "That's not certain. I think that according to our progress, we have already reached at least half of it. According to the message Rulan left us, we are now at the beginning of a crisis. That is to say, we are only now entering the real crisis." In the dangerous period, the front is just a latent time, and then everything is likely to erupt. At that time, we will all face it, and there will be no way out. You have also seen Uncle Yin's end."
Fat San flinched a little, but at this moment the thin monkey said: "I'll go with you, I don't believe that waiting for anything will yield any results. I can take responsibility for my life, and I don't need others to take care of it for me."
Seeing that he was alone, Fat San patted his thigh and said, "I'll go too! Don't even think about leaving me alone!"
Zhou Jue groaned, and the black cat next to him also let out a very slight cry, like a girl's laughter.Everyone looked at the cat, and Fat San said, "Take it with you, too."
Zhou Jue immediately vetoed it: "No, this cat is too weird, it must not go."
Pang San said: "That's not a black cat, it's especially good at warding off evil spirits, it's safe to have it around, didn't it save Chen Hao's life back then?"
Zhou Jue smiled helplessly: "I'm not [-]% sure that it's a black cat, what if it's not? And this cat is too weird, it seems that it appeared because of this incident, that strange man said he would kill people !"
Chen Hao and Shouhou asked at the same time: "Weird?"
Seeing that this matter was mentioned again, Zhou Jue told about the time when the strange man was looking for the cat last night. The thin monkey shook his head and said, "It doesn't feel like a human being. Have you ever seen him?"
Zhou Jue said with a wry smile: "How is it possible, I came out early in the morning, but I think he is probably the strange new neighbor that my mother mentioned."
Fat San hurriedly interrupted: "Then that person may also know about the Ring of Seven?"
Chen Hao didn't answer, he looked at Zhou Jue silently, Zhou Jue knew that he should tell the whole story about that person, but in fact he didn't know much, and after two or three sentences, everyone fell into silence again.
Chen Hao said: "Since that person said that this cat is special, let's take this cat with us to see how special it is. As for that person, if he is really related to the ring of seven, then he will definitely come Find us, and at least come back for the cat."
The thin monkey asked: "So when do we start our journey? By the way, do you want to continue reading that book?"
Chen Hao frowned and smiled bitterly: "Originally, I planned to read the book first, and then set off with Zhou Jue at night after making arrangements. Now let's rush to Nanjing as soon as possible. After all, we have to get that thing before Lao Jiu."
Disappointed expressions appeared on everyone's faces, and they were all surprised why they wanted to know the results so much, but they couldn't read them all at once, as if their emotions were disturbed by some unknown factor, but this is after all Emotional interference, in the face of successive emergencies, Zhou Jue felt that a new force was gradually pushing them. He felt that there were two forces fighting against each other, and they had to fight for the last time.
In this way, the itinerary that was originally decided was changed at zero hour, but Chen Hao still got the train ticket to Nanjing. Several people temporarily dismissed the meeting and went back to each house to bring all the things they should bring. Except for Chen Hao, everyone behaved a little Excited, I always feel that they are getting closer to the truth.
Chen Hao arranged for them two hours of preparation time, which was very tight. In fact, this time was originally used to read the next chapter of the story, but Chen Hao decided to start the story on the train.Thin Monkey had a gloomy look on his face when he heard the train.
But Fat San must take the strange cat away, the biggest problem is the train security check, how can a cat sneak into the train silently has become their problem.In the end, Zhou Jue, who had the most tricky ideas, came up with a way, which was to tie up the cat's hands and feet, and stuff it into a big travel bag, and put some dolls in it, pretending it was a gift for the child.
Naturally, such a big bag was reserved for Fat San, so everyone quickly called their parents, and after explaining a lot of reasons, they were allowed. After going back and forth for two hours, they finally squeezed in. The train to Nanjing.
The sun was going down very fast that day, and only a faint yellow circle was visible after five o'clock.The expressions of the four people are all complicated.Loneliness, restlessness, doubt... All kinds of emotions are like a coquettish net that connects the four of them together.
No one can break free.
Just like that, they cut tickets, looked for seats, put down their luggage, and sat in silence. The car started slowly and shook slightly.From the beginning to the end, the noise in the car never stopped.Only the air around them seemed to be isolated from the outside world, it was eerily quiet.
Fat San didn't put the hide-and-seek travel bag on the shelf, he held the bag and opened a small mouth, and the black cat seemed to understand their intentions, and didn't bark, just made a slight rustling sound while grabbing those plush toys.Except for the four of them, no one heard the voice inside the bag.
Smoking is not allowed in the carriage. Chen Hao touched his fingers unaccustomedly. He looked at Zhou Jue who was sitting opposite him and said, "Now we have three hours. During this time, we can continue to read books."
The thin monkey had really bad memories of the train, and he looked around uncomfortably.It seemed that those people around him were not normal, Fat San waved his hands at him and said, "Don't be nervous, everything has come out, it looks quite normal now."
The thin monkey nodded stiffly, no longer looked around, but stared blankly at the drink bottles on the table.Zhou Jue's eyes never left Chen Hao, he was waiting for this person's next move.Chen Hao continued, "Are you all ready?"
The three of them looked at each other, and Zhou Jue replied dryly: "It's ok, let's continue."
Chen Hao opened the backpack, and he took out the book and placed it in front of the four of them.The train was still shaking slightly. At this time, the passenger didn't know that he opened the window, and the sound of the rapid subway trains could be heard outside, and the cover of the book was also trembling by the wind blowing from the window.Everyone look at me, I look at you, no one is willing to be the first to open this book, finally Zhou Jue took a deep breath: "I'll read it first, everyone continue..."
He picked up the book, pulled out the bookmark that Chen Hao had placed on the unfinished page yesterday, and continued to read.He looked at the first line of words, cleared his throat and wanted to start reading in a low voice, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice, someone calling his name, he suddenly looked up and didn't know when he found the text on their watch. Standing a person, this person looked at them blankly, he came to their table without making a sound, just like this person seemed to be here at the beginning, with his hands hanging by his sides, his head was lowered to look at watching them.No matter how bumpy the train was, he was as steady as if he was standing on the ground, without any shaking at all.Zhou Jue was surprised to find that this person was the weird guy who was still looking for the cat in the middle of the night!He is coming!
He stood up and said, "Why are you here?"
The strange man didn't answer him, but showed a very dark smile, and he said softly: "I finally found it..."
Zhou Jue wanted to push Fat San away to catch the strange man first, but Fat San was too fat, so Zhou Jue squeezed for a long time without going out, and after he and Fat San pushed and shoved, the strange man had disappeared without a trace.
Zhou Jue looked around incredulously, and said to the other three, "Did you see it?"
Fat San asked angrily: "What did you see?"
"That weirdo!"
After Zhou Jue finished speaking, the other three were silent, and he himself couldn't say anything for a while.
Chen Hao looked at Zhou Jue and said, "We didn't see it."
Zhou Jue slipped slowly on the table, he said: "Maybe you didn't notice..."
Chen Hao picked up the book: "Let me start first."
Zhou Jue didn't try to be brave, he handed the book to Chen Hao, Chen Hao took the book, and he looked at Zhou Jue worriedly.Zhou Jue's eyes were still looking for the strange man in black in the crowd.
Suddenly Fat San jumped up again, and he said, "The cat is gone!"
Chen Hao sent a letter, Fat San opened the travel bag and said, "The cat is tied up, how could it run away?"
The thin monkey said, "Could it be that it broke free by itself?"
Fat San couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Do you think it's possible?"
Zhou Jue asked in a daze, "That weird man said he found it... maybe he took the cat away?"
Fat San rolled his eyes, and he held back his anger and asked, "How do you get it? Do you think I'm dead?"
Zhou Jue wanted to continue talking, but the thin monkey blocked the two of them. He pointed to the train and said, "Listen?"
Amidst the noisy sound, they vaguely heard a slight cat meowing from the deepest part of the carriage, the voice seemed to be mocking the four of them for their dullness.Fat San patted the table and said, "Damn! I really ran away, chase after me!"
Zhou Jue grabbed the impulsive Fat San, and he said, "No, this sound is wrong... how can a cat meow be so strange, it doesn't sound like a cat meow..."
The thin monkey stared at the carriage and said, "It's like a human's laughter."
Fat San put down his bag, and he said guiltily, "Is it a cat meowing or a human meowing? How come the more I listen to it, the more frightened I become."
Chen Hao put the book into the backpack he carried, and said, "Zhou Jue is right, something came with him."
Zhou Jue continued, "Would you like...to take a look?"
Chen Hao stood up and said, "I'll go and have a look."
Zhou Jue said, "I'll go with you."
Fat San glanced at Shouhou, who clasped his hands and said, "The car is already driving, and none of us can get away. Let the second child go and have a look."
Fat San moved his body awkwardly, he whispered sorry to Zhou Jue, Zhou Jue patted him on the shoulder with a smile.For him, misunderstandings can be explained later, and survival is the most important thing right now.
Zhou Jue and Chen Hao walked in the aisle of the carriage. When the aisle was very crowded, they could only walk sideways.When they got out of one car, they saw the next car. Zhou Jue and Chen Hao quickly passed through one car after another. They felt that each car was exactly the same, with the same passengers and the same flight attendants. Shuttle back and forth in the same compartment.It's like going forward and rewinding non-stop.
Chen Hao first slowed down. He looked back at the way he came from. The aisle of the carriage extended into a black spot, and the front was the same. Zhou Jue was sweating profusely as he ran. He dressed roughly and said, "What should I do? I didn't see it." to them."
Chen Hao said to Zhou Jue: "Something is wrong, I can't get out."
Zhou Jue replied, "Go back first."
Chen Hao shook his head and said, "Didn't you notice that we've been in the same carriage all this time, and we can't go back."
Zhou Jue became anxious. He breathed quickly to keep calm. The people around him looked normal, some were carrying luggage, some were eating snacks. In short, it was no different from an ordinary train, but Zhou Jue noticed this scene It seems very familiar, but this familiarity has no clue.
Chen Hao looked around, he sneered, he covered his forehead and said: "Stop playing, if you have time to do this kind of trick, why don't you talk face to face."
After finishing speaking, the people in the carriage stopped their movements immediately, as if time had frozen in an instant.There was no sound, Zhou Jue could only hear him and Chen Hao gasping, and he asked softly, "What's going on?"
Chen Hao said to the end of the passage: "If you haven't appeared yet, then don't hinder us from continuing. It's too boring to play this kind of trick, or do you want to repeat the situation five years ago?"
When Zhou Jue heard Chen Hao mention five years ago, he looked at Chen Hao puzzled. Chen Hao was a little agitated, and he seemed to be holding back his emotions to prevent them from getting out of control.
But there was still no sound, Chen Hao became more and more angry, and he clenched his fists and looked ahead.Finally, a few subtle meows came from the depths of the train, and the sound gradually became clearer, and the meowing sound became more and more piercing. A person came from the camera of the carriage, holding the cat in his hand. Evil black cat.
The man was still smiling, his eyes were astonishingly large like two black holes.Seeing Chen Hao's reaction, Zhou Jue asked, "Do you know this person?"
Chen Hao said, "I know."
The man finally said: "Thank you for remembering me, you are more mature than five years ago."
Chen Hao went straight to the point and asked, "Is that cat yours? Are you still investigating that incident?"
The man stroked the black cat, and the black cat squinted his eyes as if enjoying himself. He walked up to Chen Hao and the two of them: "I thought you would come to me, but you chose to do it alone? Do you think you brought a few different people with you?" Can a student of world affairs go further than your sister?"
Chen Hao pursed his lips, and Zhou Jue was a little impatient. Just as he was about to speak, the man continued: "I said that this cat is very obsessed with the breath of death. It won't leave you, which means that you are closer to death. It's getting closer. Don't you understand, my child?"
Zhou Jue looked at him vigilantly, he was not irritated by this lowly provocation, he asked flatly, "Who are you?"
The man's eyes were still fixed on Chen Hao, and he replied to Zhou Jue, "Me? A Chinese."
Zhou Jue was left speechless by his answer, Chen Hao said: "He is a magic stick, who specializes in communicating with the dead. He is well-known in their circle, and he is also proficient in the method of disgusting victory."
The man didn't get angry at this harsh introduction, but his smile grew stronger.
Zhou Jue looked at Chen Hao in disbelief and said, "Will you believe it?"
Chen Hao said: "Actually, he is Rulan's friend."
The man's eyes did not blink from the beginning to the end. He smiled and said: "I can feel your rejection of me, but my visit this time is also arranged by Rulan. She asked me to help her. I promised to help her, so Will not break my promise."
Chen Hao paused for a moment, he finally couldn't control his emotions, he asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of Ru Lan?"
The man shook his head, his eyelids wrinkled slightly and said, "No, I don't know."
The man continued: "Because I can't be sure of her life or death..."
Chen Hao said eagerly: "Can't you feel her soul?"
After a moment of silence, the man said: "No, I can feel your sister's presence, but it's not a soul, but a message."
Zhou Jue hurriedly said, "Between life and death?"
The man's tangled brows slightly stretched out: "Your kid and Rulan's way of thinking are very similar. They are both very smart people, and they can understand everything."
Zhou Jue continued: "Then what is your purpose for appearing this time?"
The man said: "I want to join you and become the sixth person."
The two were surprised at the same time, but the man was unmoved. Zhou Jue was the first to react, and he immediately said: "No, you are too suspicious. A nine-year-old has already messed us up. Are there another magic stick? We The troubles will only get bigger and bigger."
The man smiled and said, "Perhaps in the future you will find that a magic stick like me has become your life-saving talisman."
Zhou Jue snorted coldly, "It's up to you?"
Chen Hao stopped Zhou Jue's provocation, and he asked, "Give me a reason."
The man restrained his joking expression, and said seriously, "That's all."
He pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Chen Hao. When Chen Hao opened it, his eyes instantly became shaken. He looked at the man in surprise, and there was a hint of obscurity in the man's eyes.Zhou Jue saw that the paper was a pattern of a clay tablet. This pattern was very similar to the figure that appeared repeatedly in the materials, but it was also slightly different.Then he opened the bag again, revealing a corner of a clay tablet.
Chen Hao returned the paper to the man, and he said, "Okay, you can join us."
Zhou Jue didn't understand the meaning, he asked, "Brother Chen, why did you agree to him?"
Chen Hao said: "Because even if he doesn't agree, he will still be one of the seven."
Zhou Jue asked, "Has he also read the book?"
The man said: "I haven't read the book directly, but owning that thing represents the identity of the Seven." After speaking, he looked at Chen Hao and said, "Am I right?"
Chen Hao didn't answer him, Zhou Jue frowned and said, "Is this the secret you're hiding? Those clay tablets actually have another meaning?"
Chen Hao did not answer his question, but instead asked: "What is your choice?"
Zhou Jue's face was very ugly, he clenched his fists, his eyes could shoot fire, his brain turned a lot of things, he doubted everyone, he was almost ready to give up, he wanted to go to the fucking ring of seven, go The fuck is going to kill people, maybe it's not me who died?But in the end he relaxed his fist, Zhou Jue knew that now he had to hold back and be patient, otherwise he would just let the previous crimes be for nothing, and the lives of his other two brothers were hanging on him, he sneered a few times, helplessly He nodded and said, "Okay, I agree with his joining."
As soon as Zhou Jue finished speaking, he felt that the surrounding scenery suddenly began to distort. Before Zhou Jue and the others recovered from the dizziness, the scene had already changed, and there were all kinds of people in a hurry around him. Carrying their luggage, the LCD screen on the wall reported the train schedule and time. It was only [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and Zhou Jue realized that they hadn't boarded the train at all.
Zhou Jue looked around in disbelief, he couldn't find the words to describe it for a while, he looked at the strange man who was still smiling, his eyes seemed to be looking at a magician, Gandalf level.
The black cat in the man's hand was gone, replaced by a black travel bag, he stretched out his hand to Zhou Jue and said, "Hello, my name is Ye Wei."
Zhou Jue shook his hand symbolically, and found that his hand was as cold as a piece of ice.He said with a dry smile, "Do you know magic?"
Ye Wei said: "My ancestor was a carpenter, and he is very good at the art of carpenter's disgust."
Zhou Jue didn't continue to ask, the three came to the train, Fat San and Thin Monkey were already waiting there, same as the previous scene, Fat San was holding the travel bag with the cat hidden in his hand, and Thin Monkey looked vigilant .
They were very surprised by Ye Wei's arrival, but they didn't have time to ask details, the train was really about to leave this time...
The author has something to say: Hehe, I'm back again, hello everyone.The ring of seven has progressed 12w, 13w words, which means that the story is nearly half completed, but it has not reached half. Personally, I think that a character's personality is not enriched by description, but by events. Only words and deeds in events can reflect a person's personality.This has a sense of reality. For example, the character Chen Hao, he gives people the impression that he is an introverted hooligan at the beginning, but as things develop, he will gradually become fuller, and Zhou Jue will also appear more complicated through things. , and in the end these two people will have a big change.
The very crucial sixth person in this story came out, because as I said in the story, the appearance of the seventh person is the biggest crisis.So now is the appearance of the penultimate person. He is a key and a variable.The ancients said that Xiao He succeeded and defeated Xiao He, he must be such a character...
Zhou Jue saw the cat jumping up and down, and everyone was messed up by the cat.But when he looked into the cat's eyes, for some reason, he always thought of the man who was looking for the cat in the middle of the night last night.He found that the cat had the same mysterious eyes as the man, and he always felt that it was peeping at something.Chen Hao noticed that his eyes were dull, and asked, "Zhou Jue, did something happen to you?"
Zhou Jue managed to recover from his trance, and he hurriedly said, "It can't be regarded as a major event, but I just met a strange person yesterday."
Fat San heard that Zhou Jue also encountered strange things, so he remembered what happened to him, and quickly interjected, "I also encountered a ghost taxi!"
Fat San didn't wait for Zhou Jue to speak, so he couldn't wait to say: "You don't know, when Zhou Jue got out of the car, I started to hear ghost stories on the DVD player in the car. I thought the driver's psychological quality was awesome. , I dare to listen to this in the middle of the night. I didn’t expect that people didn’t listen to it at all, but Teresa Teng. The story is so vague that I can’t remember it, but it seems to keep repeating that one of them is a ghost..."
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more emotional he became.In the end, everyone's attention was focused on Fat San's incident, and Zhou Jue felt that there was no need to talk about that weird person.After everyone ordered takeaway and had a meal, Chen Hao finally told everyone his thoughts: "I'm going to take Zhou Jue to Nanjing once."
Thin Monkey and Fat San showed different surprises at the same time, but it was obvious that Skinny Monkey was even more surprised. He said, "Have you forgotten? At the beginning, I also wanted to leave Shanghai, but I couldn't get out at all."
Chen Hao said: "At the beginning you couldn't go out, probably because the time hadn't come yet, but now we have to go to Nanjing anyway. Lao Jiu has already set off, we can't be slower than him."
Although the thin monkey was still not convinced, he bit his lip and finally hummed, reluctantly agreeing.Then Fat San jumped out and said, "It's not that cheap! Why are you two going? Throw me and Skinny Monkey in Shanghai to die?"
Zhou Jue didn't expect Fat San and Shouhou to distrust Chen Hao so much, and hurriedly wanted to come out to smooth things over, but was held down by Shouhou. It seemed that Shouhou was completely on Fat San's side.Zhou Jue had no position to speak, and the atmosphere suddenly became very excited.Chen Hao looked at Fat Three and said, "What do you mean by telling you to wait to die?"
Fat San sneered and sat down on the stool and said, "You guys went to Nanjing, and Lao Jiu went to Nanjing. Why are the two of us staying behind? If that damn thing you mentioned is the key, why don't you snatch it back?" Don't worry, think back to us who were foolishly waiting in Shanghai?"
After finishing speaking, he took a special look at Zhou Jue, and continued: "Don't think that I don't know what you think, you think Zhou Jue is still useful, after all, he discovered this book, and we are not sure whether he put all Tell me all the details.

There was obvious anger in Chen Hao's eyes, the two sides were at war, and the hand of the thin monkey pressing Zhou Jue's shoulder became heavier and heavier. Chen Hao said, "So you mean to follow?"
Fat San didn't expect him to ask back, and couldn't answer for a while, he glanced at Shouhou, who said firmly, "That's right, the four of us are going together."
Chen Hao said unceremoniously: "If you go this time, you will all die there. Don't regret it."
When Fat San heard this, he felt guilty: "Is it that dangerous?"

Zhou Jue groaned, and the black cat next to him also let out a very slight cry, like a girl's laughter.Everyone looked at the cat, and Fat San said, "Take it with you, too."
Zhou Jue immediately vetoed it: "No, this cat is too weird, it must not go."

Naturally, such a big bag was reserved for Fat San, so everyone quickly called their parents, and after explaining a lot of reasons, they were allowed. After going back and forth for two hours, they finally squeezed in. The train to Nanjing.
The sun was going down very fast that day, and only a faint yellow circle was visible after five o'clock.The expressions of the four people are all complicated.Loneliness, restlessness, doubt... All kinds of emotions are like a coquettish net that connects the four of them together.
No one can break free.
Just like that, they cut tickets, looked for seats, put down their luggage, and sat in silence. The car started slowly and shook slightly.From the beginning to the end, the noise in the car never stopped.Only the air around them seemed to be isolated from the outside world, it was eerily quiet.
Fat San didn't put the hide-and-seek travel bag on the shelf, he held the bag and opened a small mouth, and the black cat seemed to understand their intentions, and didn't bark, just made a slight rustling sound while grabbing those plush toys.Except for the four of them, no one heard the voice inside the bag.
Smoking is not allowed in the carriage. Chen Hao touched his fingers unaccustomedly. He looked at Zhou Jue who was sitting opposite him and said, "Now we have three hours. During this time, we can continue to read books."
The thin monkey had really bad memories of the train, and he looked around uncomfortably.It seemed that those people around him were not normal, Fat San waved his hands at him and said, "Don't be nervous, everything has come out, it looks quite normal now."
The thin monkey nodded stiffly, no longer looked around, but stared blankly at the drink bottles on the table.Zhou Jue's eyes never left Chen Hao, he was waiting for this person's next move.Chen Hao continued, "Are you all ready?"
The three of them looked at each other, and Zhou Jue replied dryly: "It's ok, let's continue."
Chen Hao opened the backpack, and he took out the book and placed it in front of the four of them.The train was still shaking slightly. At this time, the passenger didn't know that he opened the window, and the sound of the rapid subway trains could be heard outside, and the cover of the book was also trembling by the wind blowing from the window.Everyone look at me, I look at you, no one is willing to be the first to open this book, finally Zhou Jue took a deep breath: "I'll read it first, everyone continue..."
He picked up the book, pulled out the bookmark that Chen Hao had placed on the unfinished page yesterday, and continued to read.He looked at the first line of words, cleared his throat and wanted to start reading in a low voice, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice, someone calling his name, he suddenly looked up and didn't know when he found the text on their watch. Standing a person, this person looked at them blankly, he came to their table without making a sound, just like this person seemed to be here at the beginning, with his hands hanging by his sides, his head was lowered to look at watching them.No matter how bumpy the train was, he was as steady as if he was standing on the ground, without any shaking at all.Zhou Jue was surprised to find that this person was the weird guy who was still looking for the cat in the middle of the night!He is coming!
He stood up and said, "Why are you here?"
The strange man didn't answer him, but showed a very dark smile, and he said softly: "I finally found it..."
Zhou Jue wanted to push Fat San away to catch the strange man first, but Fat San was too fat, so Zhou Jue squeezed for a long time without going out, and after he and Fat San pushed and shoved, the strange man had disappeared without a trace.
Zhou Jue looked around incredulously, and said to the other three, "Did you see it?"
Fat San asked angrily: "What did you see?"
"That weirdo!"
After Zhou Jue finished speaking, the other three were silent, and he himself couldn't say anything for a while.
Chen Hao looked at Zhou Jue and said, "We didn't see it."
Zhou Jue slipped slowly on the table, he said: "Maybe you didn't notice..."
Chen Hao picked up the book: "Let me start first."
Zhou Jue didn't try to be brave, he handed the book to Chen Hao, Chen Hao took the book, and he looked at Zhou Jue worriedly.Zhou Jue's eyes were still looking for the strange man in black in the crowd.
Suddenly Fat San jumped up again, and he said, "The cat is gone!"
Chen Hao sent a letter, Fat San opened the travel bag and said, "The cat is tied up, how could it run away?"
The thin monkey said, "Could it be that it broke free by itself?"
Fat San couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Do you think it's possible?"
Zhou Jue asked in a daze, "That weird man said he found it... maybe he took the cat away?"
Fat San rolled his eyes, and he held back his anger and asked, "How do you get it? Do you think I'm dead?"
Zhou Jue wanted to continue talking, but the thin monkey blocked the two of them. He pointed to the train and said, "Listen?"
Amidst the noisy sound, they vaguely heard a slight cat meowing from the deepest part of the carriage, the voice seemed to be mocking the four of them for their dullness.Fat San patted the table and said, "Damn! I really ran away, chase after me!"
Zhou Jue grabbed the impulsive Fat San, and he said, "No, this sound is wrong... how can a cat meow be so strange, it doesn't sound like a cat meow..."
The thin monkey stared at the carriage and said, "It's like a human's laughter."
Fat San put down his bag, and he said guiltily, "Is it a cat meowing or a human meowing? How come the more I listen to it, the more frightened I become."
Chen Hao put the book into the backpack he carried, and said, "Zhou Jue is right, something came with him."
Zhou Jue continued, "Would you like...to take a look?"
Chen Hao stood up and said, "I'll go and have a look."
Zhou Jue said, "I'll go with you."
Fat San glanced at Shouhou, who clasped his hands and said, "The car is already driving, and none of us can get away. Let the second child go and have a look."
Fat San moved his body awkwardly, he whispered sorry to Zhou Jue, Zhou Jue patted him on the shoulder with a smile.For him, misunderstandings can be explained later, and survival is the most important thing right now.
Zhou Jue and Chen Hao walked in the aisle of the carriage. When the aisle was very crowded, they could only walk sideways.When they got out of one car, they saw the next car. Zhou Jue and Chen Hao quickly passed through one car after another. They felt that each car was exactly the same, with the same passengers and the same flight attendants. Shuttle back and forth in the same compartment.It's like going forward and rewinding non-stop.
Chen Hao first slowed down. He looked back at the way he came from. The aisle of the carriage extended into a black spot, and the front was the same. Zhou Jue was sweating profusely as he ran. He dressed roughly and said, "What should I do? I didn't see it." to them."
Chen Hao said to Zhou Jue: "Something is wrong, I can't get out."
Zhou Jue replied, "Go back first."
Chen Hao shook his head and said, "Didn't you notice that we've been in the same carriage all this time, and we can't go back."
Zhou Jue became anxious. He breathed quickly to keep calm. The people around him looked normal, some were carrying luggage, some were eating snacks. In short, it was no different from an ordinary train, but Zhou Jue noticed this scene It seems very familiar, but this familiarity has no clue.
Chen Hao looked around, he sneered, he covered his forehead and said: "Stop playing, if you have time to do this kind of trick, why don't you talk face to face."
After finishing speaking, the people in the carriage stopped their movements immediately, as if time had frozen in an instant.There was no sound, Zhou Jue could only hear him and Chen Hao gasping, and he asked softly, "What's going on?"
Chen Hao said to the end of the passage: "If you haven't appeared yet, then don't hinder us from continuing. It's too boring to play this kind of trick, or do you want to repeat the situation five years ago?"
When Zhou Jue heard Chen Hao mention five years ago, he looked at Chen Hao puzzled. Chen Hao was a little agitated, and he seemed to be holding back his emotions to prevent them from getting out of control.
But there was still no sound, Chen Hao became more and more angry, and he clenched his fists and looked ahead.Finally, a few subtle meows came from the depths of the train, and the sound gradually became clearer, and the meowing sound became more and more piercing. A person came from the camera of the carriage, holding the cat in his hand. Evil black cat.
The man was still smiling, his eyes were astonishingly large like two black holes.Seeing Chen Hao's reaction, Zhou Jue asked, "Do you know this person?"
Chen Hao said, "I know."
The man finally said: "Thank you for remembering me, you are more mature than five years ago."
Chen Hao went straight to the point and asked, "Is that cat yours? Are you still investigating that incident?"
The man stroked the black cat, and the black cat squinted his eyes as if enjoying himself. He walked up to Chen Hao and the two of them: "I thought you would come to me, but you chose to do it alone? Do you think you brought a few different people with you?" Can a student of world affairs go further than your sister?"
Chen Hao pursed his lips, and Zhou Jue was a little impatient. Just as he was about to speak, the man continued: "I said that this cat is very obsessed with the breath of death. It won't leave you, which means that you are closer to death. It's getting closer. Don't you understand, my child?"
Zhou Jue looked at him vigilantly, he was not irritated by this lowly provocation, he asked flatly, "Who are you?"
The man's eyes were still fixed on Chen Hao, and he replied to Zhou Jue, "Me? A Chinese."
Zhou Jue was left speechless by his answer, Chen Hao said: "He is a magic stick, who specializes in communicating with the dead. He is well-known in their circle, and he is also proficient in the method of disgusting victory."
The man didn't get angry at this harsh introduction, but his smile grew stronger.
Zhou Jue looked at Chen Hao in disbelief and said, "Will you believe it?"
Chen Hao said: "Actually, he is Rulan's friend."
The man's eyes did not blink from the beginning to the end. He smiled and said: "I can feel your rejection of me, but my visit this time is also arranged by Rulan. She asked me to help her. I promised to help her, so Will not break my promise."
Chen Hao paused for a moment, he finally couldn't control his emotions, he asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of Ru Lan?"
The man shook his head, his eyelids wrinkled slightly and said, "No, I don't know."
The man continued: "Because I can't be sure of her life or death..."
Chen Hao said eagerly: "Can't you feel her soul?"
After a moment of silence, the man said: "No, I can feel your sister's presence, but it's not a soul, but a message."
Zhou Jue hurriedly said, "Between life and death?"
The man's tangled brows slightly stretched out: "Your kid and Rulan's way of thinking are very similar. They are both very smart people, and they can understand everything."
Zhou Jue continued: "Then what is your purpose for appearing this time?"
The man said: "I want to join you and become the sixth person."
The two were surprised at the same time, but the man was unmoved. Zhou Jue was the first to react, and he immediately said: "No, you are too suspicious. A nine-year-old has already messed us up. Are there another magic stick? We The troubles will only get bigger and bigger."
The man smiled and said, "Perhaps in the future you will find that a magic stick like me has become your life-saving talisman."
Zhou Jue snorted coldly, "It's up to you?"
Chen Hao stopped Zhou Jue's provocation, and he asked, "Give me a reason."
The man restrained his joking expression, and said seriously, "That's all."
He pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Chen Hao. When Chen Hao opened it, his eyes instantly became shaken. He looked at the man in surprise, and there was a hint of obscurity in the man's eyes.Zhou Jue saw that the paper was a pattern of a clay tablet. This pattern was very similar to the figure that appeared repeatedly in the materials, but it was also slightly different.Then he opened the bag again, revealing a corner of a clay tablet.
Chen Hao returned the paper to the man, and he said, "Okay, you can join us."
Zhou Jue didn't understand the meaning, he asked, "Brother Chen, why did you agree to him?"
Chen Hao said: "Because even if he doesn't agree, he will still be one of the seven."
Zhou Jue asked, "Has he also read the book?"
The man said: "I haven't read the book directly, but owning that thing represents the identity of the Seven." After speaking, he looked at Chen Hao and said, "Am I right?"
Chen Hao didn't answer him, Zhou Jue frowned and said, "Is this the secret you're hiding? Those clay tablets actually have another meaning?"
Chen Hao did not answer his question, but instead asked: "What is your choice?"
Zhou Jue's face was very ugly, he clenched his fists, his eyes could shoot fire, his brain turned a lot of things, he doubted everyone, he was almost ready to give up, he wanted to go to the fucking ring of seven, go The fuck is going to kill people, maybe it's not me who died?But in the end he relaxed his fist, Zhou Jue knew that now he had to hold back and be patient, otherwise he would just let the previous crimes be for nothing, and the lives of his other two brothers were hanging on him, he sneered a few times, helplessly He nodded and said, "Okay, I agree with his joining."
As soon as Zhou Jue finished speaking, he felt that the surrounding scenery suddenly began to distort. Before Zhou Jue and the others recovered from the dizziness, the scene had already changed, and there were all kinds of people in a hurry around him. Carrying their luggage, the LCD screen on the wall reported the train schedule and time. It was only [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and Zhou Jue realized that they hadn't boarded the train at all.
Zhou Jue looked around in disbelief, he couldn't find the words to describe it for a while, he looked at the strange man who was still smiling, his eyes seemed to be looking at a magician, Gandalf level.
The black cat in the man's hand was gone, replaced by a black travel bag, he stretched out his hand to Zhou Jue and said, "Hello, my name is Ye Wei."
Zhou Jue shook his hand symbolically, and found that his hand was as cold as a piece of ice.He said with a dry smile, "Do you know magic?"
Ye Wei said: "My ancestor was a carpenter, and he is very good at the art of carpenter's disgust."
Zhou Jue didn't continue to ask, the three came to the train, Fat San and Thin Monkey were already waiting there, same as the previous scene, Fat San was holding the travel bag with the cat hidden in his hand, and Thin Monkey looked vigilant .
They were very surprised by Ye Wei's arrival, but they didn't have time to ask details, the train was really about to leave this time...
The author has something to say: Hehe, I'm back again, hello everyone.The ring of seven has progressed 12w, 13w words, which means that the story is nearly half completed, but it has not reached half. Personally, I think that a character's personality is not enriched by description, but by events. Only words and deeds in events can reflect a person's personality.This has a sense of reality. For example, the character Chen Hao, he gives people the impression that he is an introverted hooligan at the beginning, but as things develop, he will gradually become fuller, and Zhou Jue will also appear more complicated through things. , and in the end these two people will have a big change.
The very crucial sixth person in this story came out, because as I said in the story, the appearance of the seventh person is the biggest crisis.So now is the appearance of the penultimate person. He is a key and a variable.The ancients said that Xiao He succeeded and defeated Xiao He, he must be such a character...
