The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

At the same time, outside Qingfeng Town.

According to Xiao Lou's arrangement, Ye Qi and Shao Qingge stayed outside the town with the card [Tao Yuanming]. The two found a hidden corner, opened the Peach Blossom Garden in advance, and were ready to teleport teammates in danger at any time.

The Taohuayuan exists for 3 hours, and two Tao Yuanming cards can use skills twice, that is 6 hours.

Six hours later, it was already dawn, so in theory, as long as Tao Yuanming had this magic card in his hand, no matter how difficult it was, everyone could escape at any time.

Ye Qi and Shao Qingge stayed in the very safe Taohuayuan, no one would find them.

Shao Qingge still has a piece of [Qin Guan] in his hand. He originally planned to connect with Xiao Lou to have a good understanding and facilitate communication, but when he activated the skill, he saw a pop-up prompt from the floating box above his head: "The card skill is blocked and its effect is invalid. "

The familiar reminder reminded the two of them of the scene of the Q level.

Ye Qi said nervously: "Oops! Professor Xiao and the others probably encountered a hunter who happens to be holding the [Magnetic Shield] card...they will be fine, right?!"

Shao Qingge patted Xiaoye's shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, Xiao Lou's IQ is not so easy to be killed by hunters. Even if they do encounter hunters, they have a way to deal with them. Let's talk in 5 minutes Bar."

This [Magnetic Field Shielding] card works for 5 minutes, Ye Qi remembers it clearly.He paced back and forth anxiously, and finally waited for 5 minutes to pass. Ye Qi immediately pressed the bump on the earphone and asked, "Professor Xiao, can you hear me?"

No sound.

Shao Qingge sensed something was wrong, and also pressed the team communication and asked: "Brother Nine, please answer if you hear it."

The members of Lu Jiuchuan's team also lost contact.

The earphones are so quiet that there is no slightest noise.

Ye Qi and Shao Qingge looked at each other - originally, Xiao Lou arranged for the two of them to stay at the gate of the town to open the Taohuayuan, so that they could be used as a backup force to teleport teammates at any time.But now, Xiao Lou's team and Lu Jiuchuan's team have lost contact, so they are completely useless!Don't know if your teammates are in danger, or when you need to teleport?

Shao Qingge and Ye Qi were equivalent to being isolated in the peach blossom garden.

Ye Qi turned around and wanted to go out, but Shao Qing grabbed his wrist and lowered his voice: "Don't go out yet, something is wrong outside."

Ye Qi was so anxious that his face turned pale: "But the voice channel lost contact, they must be very dangerous!"

Shao Qingge looked at the peach blossom tree next to him, touched his chin, and said in confusion: "The failure of the voice channel is obviously not the cause of the card's magnetic field shielding. The 5 minutes of magnetic field shielding have passed, what's going on?"

Ye Qi suddenly thought of something, and guessed: "The effective range of the team's voice communication is 10 kilometers. Will they go out of the card's range of action? If it exceeds 10 kilometers, the voice headset will have no signal?"

Shao Qingge said: "It doesn't matter whether it's a small town or a forest, it's only 10 kilometers away from us. Unless..."

Ye Qi said: "Space isolation?"

Shao Qingge nodded: "The ghost town led by Xiao Lou may not be in a small town, Brother Nine and the others may also be teleported to another world after entering the woods, so the 10-kilometer range of the voice headset will lose its effect .”

Ye Qi also felt that this speculation was reasonable. He scratched his hair and said distressedly, "What should we do?"

Shao Qingge thought for a while, and said: "I will open the teleportation first, they can accept it or refuse it, at least let them know that we are still in Taohuayuan, and by the way, confirm whether the function of Taohuayuan is normal."

Seeing the man's serious face, Ye Qi felt very complicated.When I first met Mr. Shao, this man would always follow everyone with a smile on his face and say he wanted to "win", but since the 8 of Spades was infected by the Zerg and got the Zerg King Card, Shao Qingge seemed to have become more cautious , Be careful, even jokes seem to be less.

Even without Xiao Lou, he would try his best to analyze the situation instead of waiting for his teammates to lead him to win.

Ye Qi joked: "You seem to have changed a lot. It's been a long time since you said that you won by lying down."

Shao Qingge looked at him gently, thinking to himself - because, I also have someone I want to protect.When the Star Thief spacecraft almost fell last time, I never want to experience the despair of holding you but not daring to speak out.

This world is full of crises, if you don't become stronger, how will you be brought back?

Shao Qingge took a deep breath, rubbed Ye Qi's head lightly, and said with a half-smile: "Is it useful to lie to win? You can't take me to lie to win now, do you want to run out from Taohuayuan to play the suona ?”

Ye Qi: "..."

The problem of cheap talk still hasn't changed, it seems that I think too much.

Shao Qingge put away the joke and started the Taohuayuan teleportation——

At the same time, in the woods.

Lu Jiuchuan took Tang Ci, Hua Ying, and Gui Yuanzhang together, and hid near the wooden house of the Orion he met during the day.

According to Orion, on a rainy night three years ago, he saw the wedding party walking towards the mass grave like zombies, which proved that the murderer who manipulated the victim to go to the mass grave must pass through this path.

They are waiting here, maybe they can see the murderer's killing process.

The four held their breath and waited patiently behind a big tree.

After an unknown amount of time, a bolt of lightning struck across the sky, and thunder rumbled overhead, followed by torrential rain, instantly drenching the four of them into drowned chickens.

Lu Jiuchuan really wanted to curse - what the hell is this weather, it rains every night?I was drenched last night and almost caught a cold, and I was drenched again tonight. Is it necessary to have an umbrella when going out? !

At this moment, Tang Ci suddenly said softly: "Did you hear any strange sounds?"

Lu Jiuchuan was stunned, and he pricked up his ears to listen carefully——

Rumbling thunders sounded one after another, making people's eardrums ache, but there was also a crisp sound mixed in, like thunder, but not like thunder, because the thunder was so loud that it covered up other sounds, It's hard to hear clearly.

It wasn't until the thunder and rain stopped that the sound suddenly emerged.

Clang, clang, clang...

The sound of falling beads hitting the drum--it's a rattle!

In the dark night, the sudden sound of the rattle made everyone alert immediately, Lu Jiuchuan said in a deep voice: "The murderer may be on the move, the invisibility cloak is ready!"

The four of them quickly put on their invisibility cloaks.

As soon as he changed his clothes, he saw a group of people appearing in front of him—it turned out to be the welcoming team of the Zhao family!

Three years ago, the daughter of the Zhao family, Zhao Ze'an, got married in Yinshi. The wedding party left the town, was controlled by people, walked into this mountain forest, and went all the way to the mass grave, never returning.

Now actually met the welcoming team again in the woods?

Walking beside the sedan chair, the little girl with expressionless face and dull eyes, isn't that the girl who was just dissected by Xiao Lou at the mass grave today during the day?The embroidered shoes on her feet are highly recognizable, and Lu Jiuchuan paid special attention to them at the time.

Lu Jiuchuan asked suspiciously: "Is it the phantom of the scene three years ago?"

Tang Ci said: "It is also possible that the flow of time in this world is chaotic, and we were teleported to the time and space three years ago?"

Gui Yuanzhang hurriedly pressed the earphone, and whispered to other teammates: "Mr. Shao, Professor Xiao, please answer."

There is no sound in the headset.

Lu Jiuchuan felt chills in his heart - if they were really teleported to three years ago, then they would definitely lose contact with their teammates, the timeline would not match, and the team headphones would naturally be useless.How can a person talk to someone who was three years ago?

Tang Ci's guess made everyone feel uneasy. Chu Huaying frowned and said, "Whether it's three years ago or saw a phantom, we can only continue to investigate now... Do you want to follow them?"

Lu Jiuchuan nodded: "Let's go."

Using the invisibility cloak, the four quickly followed behind the welcoming team.

Those dozens of people in red clothes walked forward with hands and feet like puppets, and all of them were expressionless——they were indeed walking in the direction of the mass grave.

The sound of the rattle was like a signal to guide them forward.

What puzzled Lu Jiuchuan was that he couldn't see where the rattle was, let alone the person who controlled it.

The closer to the mass grave, the more obvious the sound.

The sound seemed to come from the depths of the mind, the louder the louder, the only sound left in the whole brain was the sound of rattle drums. The four of them had a splitting headache and felt that their heads were about to explode. They were almost screaming. lose consciousness.

Fortunately, there was a team earphone in one ear. They were not completely brainwashed by the magic sound. Lu Jiuchuan hurriedly covered his ears and whispered: "Don't listen, the key to manipulating consciousness is this sound!"

Tang Ci's face turned pale from the noise, his head was buzzing, and he almost couldn't tell where he was. Fortunately, Brother Jiu's stern shout woke him up, and he immediately covered his ears.

The four of them stopped in their tracks, their faces getting uglier than the last.

Gui Yuanzhang calmly said: "I can't follow anymore. The source of the sound should be in the mass grave. Once we get too close and our consciousness is manipulated by the murderer, we can only die."

Lu Jiuchuan clenched his fists tightly, his face livid.He remembered that when Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang went to the mass grave for autopsy during the day, those zombies suddenly began to besiege them. Obviously, it wasn't that the dead in the mass grave had "changed", but that the corpses were controlled by this strange sound and began to attack them. Follow the voice commands to act.

If they continue to follow, no matter whether they are manipulated by the murderer or besieged by zombies, they will not end well.

But watching the welcoming team pass by, Lu Jiuchuan was really unwilling!

Tang Ci persuaded in a low voice: "Ninth brother, we must first confirm whether we came to the time and space three years ago, or simply saw a phantom. If it was three years ago, we may not be able to change the ending of history. These people will definitely die."

Lu Jiuchuan thought about it carefully, and felt that Tang Ci's words made sense.He nodded and said in a low voice: "Retreat first, go back and see if Mr. Shao and Ye Qi are at the gate of the town."

The four quickly retreated.

Soon, they came to the wooden house they had just avoided.

Another group of people lined up to walk towards the mass grave. This should be the Chen Yu family who disappeared three years ago. Mrs. Chen was still holding a newborn child in her arms.The four of Tang Ci were hiding beside them wearing invisibility cloaks. Lu Jiuchuan keenly noticed that the window of the wooden house had been opened a gap, and a man with disheveled hair like a chicken coop poked his head out for a look, and then quickly retracted.

It wasn't until the backs of the group of people went away that Lu Jiuchuan asked suspiciously: "Isn't this Orion tied up under the cliff by us during the day? I remember that his hair is not so long."

Tang Ci was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "We, it is very likely that we really came three years ago."

Although Lu Jiuchuan thought so too, he was still not completely sure.He simply flew up the tree, entered the wooden house, came behind Orion like the wind, controlled him in twos and threes, and asked in a deep voice, "What year is this year?"

Orion trembled with fright: "Ah, ah, ghost, ghost! No, don't kill me!"

Lu Jiuchuan frowned: "I'm asking you something! Is it the Year of the Goat?"

Orion was stunned by the question, and stammered: "This year is the year of the dragon, the year of the dragon, uh, the year in the underworld and your underworld should be the same?" After he finished speaking, he quickly hugged his head and begged for mercy: "Don't kill me!" Me! I haven’t done anything bad, I have my fault and my debts, brother, don’t find me if you risk your life…”

The strength on the neck suddenly loosened, and a gust of wind blew through the window.

Lu Jiuchuan flew to Tang Ci's side, and said with a sullen face: "We were three years ago, and this Orion was also a witness three years ago. He did see the welcoming team walking past like zombies."

Tang Ci: "..."

The guess turned out to be true, and he didn't know what to say.

Chu Huaying said coldly: "It's not uncommon for gatekeepers to manipulate time. However, three years before we were teleported, we couldn't get in touch with Xiao Lou and the others. Even if we found some clues, it would be difficult to summarize them." ,analyze."

Teammates are scattered to different time and space, perhaps this is the biggest difficulty of K Chamber of Secrets.

……

After Shao Qingge sent the Taohuayuan invitation, no one responded.After sending out the invitation for a long time, he and Ye Qi were still staring at each other under the peach blossom tree.

Ye Qi looked puzzled: "Why is this happening? There is no hint of 'card blocking' in the floating frame, why does the teleportation to Taohuayuan still fail?"

Shao Qingge didn't understand the reason, he thought about it carefully - the failure of Taohuayuan happened twice.

One time, I encountered Hunter's [Card Magnetic Field Shield], at that time all the cards lost their effects, and Taohuayuan was naturally not immune.The other time, when they were in the capital planet of the interstellar secret room, Xiao Loula and Liu Qiao couldn't pull it over, because Liu Qiao, Lao Mo, and Senior Gui were in the mermaid palace on the blue planet at that time, and they couldn't teleport across the interstellar.

Since it is not card shielding now, there is only one explanation——

Xiao Lou and the others are probably in different time and space.It's similar to the interstellar crossing in the Q secret room, so it can't be pulled over.

Shao Qingge thought of this, and said, "Maybe it's because Xiao Lou and Ninth Brother were sent to another dimension?"

Ye Qi scratched his head in doubt: "However, Professor Xiao and the others were also in the ghost town last night. Ninth Brother placed the Peach Blossom Garden in this location and teleported them all over. Why can't they teleport them to the ghost town tonight?"

Shao Qingge suddenly said: "Could it be that this time, we were teleported to another dimension?"

Ye Qi was taken aback: "This..."

Xiao Lou and the others stayed in the inn in the small town, and they should enter the ghost town at night.Ye Qi and Shao Qingge were at the gate of the small town. In the same situation last night, Lu Jiuchuan teleported his teammates with Taohuayuan.The teleportation failed tonight, if Xiao Lou and the others' positions have not changed, then it must be that Shao Qingge and Ye Qi's positions have changed.

The two looked at each other and quickly walked out of the peach blossom garden.

"Qingfeng Town" was still written on the gate of the town, but what was strange was that as soon as the two of them walked out, they heard a burst of children crying from around them.

The bright moon hangs high, all the trees beside the road are dry, and the branches cast messy shadows on the road.Following the sound of crying, a woman was sitting by the side of the road eating bark like a hungry man.She held a baby in her arms, and the cry came from the baby's mouth.

The baby was so thin that only a bone remained, and the woman was also skinny. After seeing the well-dressed Ye Qi and Shao Qingge, her eyes turned red, like a hungry wolf seeing a wild beast, and suddenly crawled over and knelt down with a "plop" In front of Ye Qi, he begged: "My lord, please give me something to eat, please! I haven't eaten a meal for five days!"

Ye Qi was startled, and immediately hid back. Shao Qingge stopped in front of him, frowned and looked at the woman kneeling in front of him, and asked in a low voice: "What happened in the town? Why haven't you eaten for so long? ?”

The woman looked at them suspiciously: "Don't you know that there is a famine in the town?"

Ye Qi and Shao Qingge looked at each other and looked at each other.

In different time and space, the Peach Blossom Spring fails...famine?

Thinking of a terrible possibility, Ye Qi asked tremblingly, "Is this year's zodiac sign the Year of the Pig?"

The woman nodded: "Yes!"

Ye Qi: "..."

famine 20 years ago.

He and Shao Qingge actually came to Qingfeng Town 20 years ago!
