Ghost of Rebirth

Chapter 69 The Snake Cave Lair

The tracking of the experimental mouse was very smooth, but Zhang Nanchen, who was sitting in a van disguised as an ordinary van, felt that the path of the damn mouse seemed to be a bit wrong.

He watched the little red dot on the LCD screen protruding left and right, and the direction was pointing more and more to a very familiar place. Isn't that the direction of the office building where the company he opened was located? !

Ji Yan didn't notice anything about it, he frowned with thick eyebrows, and stared at the little red dot, fearing that if the little beast got out of the sewer uncontrollably and bit him, then his big cap would be regarded as I can't wear it at all.

Ji Ying did not ride with them in the car, but followed the experimental rats on the ground with Ping Song, carrying a family heirloom sword. Although the road blocked their sight, the colleagues on the police car would always give timely reminders, so it was easy for them to follow. However, Ping Song was riding an old-fashioned Phoenix bicycle that came from nowhere, and Ji Ying was using a fully automatic human-powered tracker, and she was already sweating.

Before Zhang Nanchen could express his doubts to Ji Yan, Ji Ying, who was chasing after the experimental rat, had already realized something was wrong. He hesitated for a moment, and then heard the old Pingsong who was slightly ahead suddenly let out a "huh" and lowered his head to the fixed mouse. The radio on the collar said: "Second Young Master, why did you come to this unlucky place?"

Zhang Nanchen kept staring at the screen, but didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment. At this time, he lifted the camouflage curtain and looked out of the car window, and couldn't help but let out a "huh".

His company is located in the old industrial park on the outskirts of city A. Due to industrial transfer, many original enterprises have moved away.Desolation is a bit desolate, but the advantage is that the rent of the old building is cheap. Anyway, the location does not have much impact on their software development, and the transportation is quite convenient, so Zhang Nanchen himself is quite satisfied with this place.

In his memory, although this industrial park is deserted, it has not reached the point where there are no people in sight, and even the sound of people and cars cannot be heard.It stands to reason that after three years, this place should become more and more lively, why does it look lifeless?

Zhang Nanchen was suspicious, and Ji Yan had ordered the driver to stop the car.There is no other reason, the little red dot on the screen has also stopped, did not continue to move forward, but kept turning in place, it seems that it is persevering in drilling holes again.

Everyone got out of the car quickly, and Li Ran walked beside Ji Yan holding the mobile computer, waiting for the boss's next instruction.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Nanchen found that he had indeed returned to the office building where the company was located, but the high-rise building that used to be quite glamorous was now a dark lonely building, and not even a single light was on.

"There was a fire here three years ago, and many people died. After that, it was not peaceful, so it was left idle." Ji Ying walked to Zhang Nanchen and explained the current situation in a low voice.

Zhang Nanchen let out an "oh" and hesitated for a while before asking, "Did you clean it?"

Ji Ying curled her lips and said, "No one invited me." After a while, he said again, "If it wasn't for the fire, I wouldn't have found the files you hid."

"Boss, it's moving!" Li Ran suddenly spoke up and held the mobile computer in front of Ji Yan.

Everyone followed the sound and saw that the little red dot representing the experimental mouse was moving slowly, to be precise, rising slowly.

"It's climbing up." Pinsong twirled his beard and said, "It seems that it's always nesting on top."

Everyone was silent, but they all raised their heads to see the office building, which could not be seen clearly in the dark night. It was like a giant beast, and no one knew what was hidden in its stomach.

Ji Yan looked at the trajectory of the little red dot, made a rough prediction in his mind, and then said: "Everyone is divided into two groups, Song Qin, you follow Ji Ying, go up the roof from the drain pipe, others, follow me walk the stair."

The big Song Qin immediately stood behind Ji Ying, squeezed his fists, and made a few clicks of knuckles rubbing against each other.

Zhang Nanchen couldn't help but looked up at the office building again. There were only eleven floors in total, but there was still danger.

He was thinking about it, when he heard the old Taoist Pingsong let out a dissatisfied "cough" and asked, "What should I do with this old man?"

Everyone: "..."

In the end, Li Ran persuaded softly and sweetly: "Old man, you can support from the rear, okay?"

Ping Song was so angry that he pouted his goatee and stopped talking nonsense. He swiftly tied his trousers into his leggings, ran for a few meters on the ground, and climbed up to the second floor without a sound in a blink of an eye. On the window sill that protrudes less than [-] centimeters, it looks like a big gray-black bird, extremely light.

Ji Ying followed closely behind, holding the sword in one hand and the drainpipe in the other, climbing up very steadily,

Song Qin was more cautious than the previous two people. He took an armed belt and tied it around his waist, moving up the drainpipe one by one.

Ji Yan shook his head silently, and the rest of the people followed behind him and plunged into the dark office building together.

According to common sense, a building like this abandoned due to an accident, since it is left unattended, will definitely become a free haven for homeless people and the like, but this is not the case for this office building.

The glass door of the office building was closed tightly, and an iron general guarded the door. Although it was covered with dust, there was no sign of damage. Obviously, no one tried to break in since it was closed and abandoned.

Without Ji Yan's instructions, Qin Qian and Qin Hou stepped forward together, carrying a flame cutting machine, and opened the door lock with two strokes, a thick cloud of dust suddenly rushed to the face, choking everyone back in unison A big step.

Zhang Nanchen subconsciously held his breath, but he was still a step too late. He took half a mouthful of turbid air into his lungs, but he noticed a trace of familiar smell from it.

He froze for a moment, slowly twitched his nostrils, and slowly took another small breath of air.

Sure enough, there was that kind of smell in this office building—the last time before he was dying, he was surrounded by 360 degrees without dead ends, and the moss transformed by Yin Qi mixed with the light fragrance of red flower amaryllis mixed with the fragrance of death!

"Nanchen, what are you doing, follow up!" Ji Yan had already led everyone into the office building, turned his head and saw Zhang Nanchen still standing there looking stupid, so he yelled in a low voice, successfully drawing back Zhang Nanchen's attention .

"...Oh" Zhang Nanchen responded slowly, hanging at the end of the line and walking forward.

The body is climbing the stairs mechanically, but the brain is running at high speed.

He died here with Lycoris three years ago, and according to what Ji Ying said just now, this office building was also abandoned in a fire three years ago, these two things must be related.

For some reason, Zhang Nanchen felt a special feeling in his heart.It seems that three years ago was not the end of his last life, but now.It seems that he is destined to go through a reincarnation, and there is something hidden behind all kinds of events with various clues, which will bring him to an unknown ending.

The further you go to the top floor, the stronger the smell.Ji Yan was the first to notice something was wrong. When the group climbed to the tenth floor panting, he raised his hand to stop, and lowered his head to check his feet with a solemn expression.The wet water stains extend upwards, and there are sporadic blue-black spots in the water stains, the more upward, the more such spots.Ji Yan bent down, stretched out his hand and pinched a piece on his fingertips, the blue spot turned into a wisp of light blue smoke and drifted away towards the top floor in a winding way.

It was midsummer in July, and the rainy season in city A had long passed. This city, known as the "stove" since ancient times, hadn't rained for more than a week.Moreover, this office building faces south, and the orientation is very good. The stairs are on both sides of the building. According to common sense, in this kind of weather, the tenth floor near the top floor can never be so humid.

Ji Yan's thick eyebrows frowned more and more, and suddenly raised his chin towards Zhang Nanchen: "Come on, go ahead."

Zhang Nanchen was helpless.Ji Yan was ordered by his father not to use his good skills. The others were all national civil servants with strong roots. Ji Ying and Ping Song were ordered to take a shortcut and go up to the top floor. Among this group of people, he was the only half-bastard left. Teacher" can also be used a little bit.

Copying a stack of talisman papers in hand, Zhang Nanchen raised his head and chest to lead the charge, then ran towards the top floor with brisk footsteps.

The more you go up, the more water stains under everyone's feet. When the couch reaches the steps on the eleventh floor, you can already hear the clear sound of treading water. Looking at the surrounding walls, there are countless water marks left in the dark. Under the light of the flashlight, it looks like countless strange-looking long insects crawling around, which is really terrifying.

Ji Yan just took a rough glance and buried himself in the study of the little red dot on the screen of the laptop that Li Ran was holding.The little red dot has already stopped, it seems that it has reached the place it wants to go, as for the location, it is just above everyone's head.

"Nanchen, you pass..." Ji Yan raised his head to call Zhang Nanchen who was walking in the front, but when he raised his head, there was no shadow of Zhang Nanchen, a little bastard in front of him!

"Where are people?!" Ji Yan was furious, and shouted at Qin Qianqin and Queen Qin who were walking in the second phalanx.

"..." Qin Qian silently raised a finger, pointing in the direction of the top floor.

"Why don't you stop him!?" Ji Yan continued to roar.

"..." Empress Qin struggled for a few seconds, and finally shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Didn't you let him go ahead?"

Ji Yan: "..."

Zhang Nanchen didn't know where the energy came from, so he walked up to the eleventh floor. He held a military flashlight in his right hand and a dozen talisman papers in his left hand. He felt that his courage was much stronger than in the previous situation.

As soon as you enter the interface on the eleventh floor, everything in front of you seems to be more blurred than below the eleventh floor. It feels like a bottle of ink has been poured into the already turbid Yellow River. The military flashlight with a visibility of 30 meters The light suddenly dimmed.Zhang Nanchen knew that this was caused by a strong yin, and was about to remind Ji Yan and the others, but when he turned around, he didn't see anyone.

"Second Senior Brother!?"

Zhang Nanchen was terribly frightened by this, and immediately forgot Ji Yan's prohibition, and ran towards the stairs while calling the second senior brother.He ran too fast and rushed directly over the top step. He thought he would fall into the ground with his foot in the air, but instead he fell into a web that was as soft as a spider's silk but extremely flexible. middle.Zhang Nanchen was gently lifted back to the ground by the invisible net, and he bounced back for a few steps before standing still.At the beginning, he was still a little confused about the situation on the scene, but after trying two more times, he was still blocked by Rourou before he confirmed that he was trapped alone on the eleventh floor!

Zhang Nanchen hurriedly searched for the mobile phone in his trouser pockets, but after searching for it in vain, he remembered that the mobile phone was held by Queen Qin just now, and it was not with him at all.

"I wipe!" Zhang Nanchen was so angry and annoyed that he wanted to smash the flashlight, and kicked the invisible net twice, but the result was that he could not stand still and almost fell down.

Taking two deep breaths, Zhang Nanchen forced himself to calm down, walked back and forth at the stairs twice, pinched the formula with his right hand, and silently recited the breaking mantra, trying to break through the road-closing net transformed by Yin Qi.He tried again and again, but the energy in his body flowed outward through his right palm, but it seemed to flow into the void. The net did not respond at all. It seemed that the yin energy was too strong, and with his little cultivation, it was not even enough to plug the gap between his teeth. .

"Forget it, just go up." Zhang Nanchen gritted his teeth, thinking that Ji Ying and the other three should have reached the top floor from the drainpipe, so he might as well meet them on the top floor as soon as possible, find the big troops and discuss a countermeasure together.

Be careful, he didn't hesitate any longer, and kept his right hand pinching gesture unchanged, touching the top floor all the way.

There was nothing wrong with the short two flights of stairs. Zhang Nanchen successfully climbed to the top. The iron door leading to the top floor had long been rusted, and only half of it was left. Zhang Nanchen kicked it open and walked in through the door.

The top floor was even darker than the inside of the stairwell. The flashlight in Zhang Nanchen's hand was almost useless, and the entire illumination range dropped to less than one meter.

Zhang Nanchen could only see his feet, so he didn't dare to walk too fast, so he yelled twice: "Ji Ying? Senior Ping Song? That, Comrade Song Xiao?"

He repeated it several times, but no one answered.

"Could it be that you haven't climbed up yet?" Zhang Nanchen couldn't believe it. With Ping Song and Ji Ying's skills, it shouldn't be.

After shutting up, the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, only the rustling of his own slow movement.

Wait, rustle?

Zhang Nanchen was taken aback for a moment. According to his memory, the top floor of this office building should be a concrete floor, no matter how hard it is, no thick vegetation can grow, right?

As soon as doubts arose in his heart, he was sensitive to detect some extremely subtle voices that he hadn't noticed before.

There was a whistling sound, accompanied by a crackling sound, as if some rodents were crawling around in the grass, stopping to gnaw on the grass roots from time to time.

Thinking of this Nan Chen's face turned blue, he couldn't help but think of the experimental rat who was regarded as the "guide". This damned little beast wouldn't hide under its feet and wait for an opportunity to bite someone, right?

Zhang Nanchen hurriedly used a flashlight to illuminate his feet. Under this light, he was almost scared out of his wits. He saw that all the twisted and twisted balls under his feet were bright red, coquettish and slender filaments. Isn't this the same thing? The flower of death from hell, the petals unique to Lycoris safflower? !

While still in astonishment, suddenly a small thing covered in red flower juice rushed towards him from among the densely packed filaments.

The medical tape wrapped around the mouth of the experimental mouse has long been missing, and the brute force does not know where it came from. Dragging its huge, heavy and fat body, it leaps over a meter high, stretches its teeth and claws in the air, and hits Zhang Nanchen's thigh. Just bite!

Zhang Nanchen's reaction was quick, and he quickly dodged to avoid it, but the experimental mouse was too fast, so it caught the outer pants, tore a long slit, and scratched a little oily skin along the way.

The paws of the experimental mice were stained with the flower juice of Lycoris safflower, so Zhang Nanchen's thigh wound inevitably got a little bit of it, and felt a little spicy.The experimental rat didn't give him more time, it missed a single blow, fell into the thick filaments, and disappeared without a trace.

This experimental mouse was given ice heart talisman water. It had obviously lost its "activity" when it was in the city bureau. Unexpectedly, when it returned to its old nest, it didn't know what kind of stimulant it had taken, and it started to jump around alive and full of attack power.

Zhang Nanchen stopped moving around, and carefully pushed aside the filaments beside him with his feet, but these filaments were too thick, so the effect was minimal.

While he was moving, he saw the filaments less than half a meter away from him shaking, and he knew that the experimental rat was hiding somewhere and waiting for an opportunity to attack.It's just how to get rid of this damn mouse makes Zhang Nanchen very embarrassed. This mouse is a living thing, and the incense worm in his body is also a living thing. It is this kind.

Zhang Nanchen was still hesitating, but the experimental rat had already started the second round of attack, poking its head out from among the filaments to spy on Zhang Nanchen's movements.

One person and one mouse faced each other, Zhang Nanchen bit the electric light into his mouth, took out a Yanyang talisman with his left hand, squeezed a Yanyang tactic with his right hand, and watched the moment when the experimental mouse jumped to attack, he slapped the talisman on the mouse's forehead with one hand , and hurriedly followed with the other hand, a large amount of energy was circulated instantly, and all of it was shot into the experimental mouse through a layer of talisman paper.

Hearing a loud "chi la", Zhang Nanchen hurriedly withdrew his hands, and the experimental mouse was instantly ignited by the Yanyang Talisman infused with a lot of energy, turning into a ball of flames and falling straight from midair.

Almost at the same time, the entire rooftop suddenly lit up, and Zhang Nanchen's eyes were instantly filled with red light.He subconsciously closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was stunned by the scene of the rooftop.

I saw that this rooftop has almost become an alien space that cannot exist in the human world. Countless huge red-flowered amaryllis are densely crowded together and grow wildly. The countless petals form a red ocean, covering the entire rooftop. .And in the sea of ​​filaments, a huge white giant snake as thick as a person's arms is looming!

The author has something to say: I wrote it very late, and recently I went out for a run under the sun every day, it was really too hot~~~
