Chapter 225 Hide and Seek
Before the gunmen pulled the trigger, Chen Chuan moved first, suddenly rushing forward, 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 just 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 suddenly spun around 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, and all the items they were holding were cut open smoothly along a perfectly smooth cutting line.
Chen Chuan looked straight ahead, leaped up, and with the blade's light wrapped around him, he 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, while someone in the back was holding a gun to the heads of those company representatives.
But despite being manipulated like this, the representatives still kept repeating themselves.
The members of the resistance organization thought it was interesting and fun 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. The plan had already been successful, and he even sent 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 ruin things.
He was not sure whether this was someone Yangzhi City had originally arranged to guard the train or if it was a premeditated plan. 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 the Yangzhi Municipal Government? These are representatives from various companies. If you take another step forward, they'll be dead! You're fast, but we're not slow either. You can bet on who pulls the trigger faster, us or you!"
He wasn't completely bluffing, because when they noticed the gunshots outside, the elite members of their team had already taken the medicine in time. Now their eyes were red, and they were in a state of high alertness and excitement, barely able to 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.
He snapped, "I'm not kidding! These are representatives of foreign companies. You can't afford the responsibility if they die here! Get out now, or none of them 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 this matter as soon as possible. Tantric rituals also had an invasive effect. If it dragged on for too long, 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 they can do. If the stalemate continues, everyone will be in trouble.
If they take action now, they still have a chance to survive.
so……
He had already retreated to the door, putting a little distance between himself and 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 Chen Chuan directly. The medicine he took was undoubtedly the best, and his own strength was also the strongest here. This blow was very accurate and powerful.
Chen Chuan took a quick glance and saw that the skin on the back of his hand was bluish, and there was something inside that seemed to be about to burst. Realizing that there was something wrong, he did not use the knife to cut directly, but 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 the 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 with the forward momentum. There was immediately a sound of friction with a hard object.
It can be seen that after the epidermis was cut there, the black chitinous subcutaneous protective plate was exposed. Chen Chuan's expression remained unchanged. At this time, he twisted his waist and dragged the knife with force!
This time, the protective plate could no longer block the attack. As the blade slid past, the head was immediately pulled down. 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 origin of these implants.
"Is this... a Secret Snake Cult implant?"
He had seen Tan Wang's implant shopping list, and this item was on it. The Secret Snake Cult seemed to provide surgical implants to its own members as well as products to others. He didn't know if this person was personally affiliated with the Secret Snake Cult, or if he had purchased implant services from them.
But it had nothing to do with him.
He withdrew his gaze, took a few steps, and grabbed the door handle of the rear carriage, intending to see if there were any more people from the resistance organization in the back.
But when he opened the car door, his eyes fixed.
Because opposite him, there were several familiar bodies lying, one of them was smashed against the wall of the train, and the other opposite was hit on the head by a stone. On the door of the carriage next to him, you could still see a knife mark. This was clearly the scene in the first carriage when he got on the train just now.
But he is clearly in the last few carriages now!
He looked at the second self 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 back along the road. He found that the scene he saw there was exactly the same as what he had just seen.
He had obviously changed direction, but there was still no difference.
Even if esoteric rituals can cause an impact, most of the impact is spiritual, and the material impact is 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 them, such as the two-faced monster, the mountain ghost in Xieshan, and this one in front of him...
However, he did not 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 no esoteric ritual could do this at present, so it must have been obtained and restricted from the source of Xieshan.
After a little recollection, he found a very similar existence in the legend of Sanshan - the hidden path.
Legend has it that there is a mountain road on Xie Mountain. Once people accidentally walk into it, 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 there and die.
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, turned it, and then stepped out.
When he opened his eyes again, he was already 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 devil 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 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 matter is resolved. He has escaped the influence, but others are still deeply trapped in it. So we must crack this strange story, and to do this, we 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. He closed his eyes, grabbed the door handle, turned 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 carriage door, he looked up in surprise, then stood up and moved back in panic, saying, "You, how could you possibly get here? You, don't come over here."
