Gentle Sleep Instructor
Chapter 1446 Shao Tong
After passing through a long corridor, the group returned to where they had been. From a distance, they saw Li Bai's body lying on the ground. Zhang Qi, Yao Shunyu, and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the most terrifying outcome would have been Li Bai only existing in the surveillance footage but disappearing in reality.
Cautiously approaching Li Bai's side, after examination, Li Bai's vital signs were fine. She was still alive, but in a rather strange state.
As his gaze swept across Li Bai's face, Jiang Cheng's eyes suddenly stopped. He inadvertently noticed a bit of abnormality. Li Bai's originally trembling eyeballs had stopped.
"Her eyeballs... aren't moving."
At the same time, Yao Shunyu and the others also noticed the problem. With a cautious attitude, the group immediately turned back and returned to Zhu Jie's body, while the eyeballs under Zhu Jie's eyelids were trembling violently.
Fatty frowned and recalled, "I heard that when people are sleeping, the movement of their eyeballs is a sign that they are dreaming."
Jiang Cheng affirmed Fatty's statement, "There is such a saying. Sleep is divided into two types: deep sleep and light sleep. Deep sleep is also clinically known as rapid eye movement. When people fall asleep, brain activity continues, and the cerebral cortex continues to send signals under the influence of nerves, leading to involuntary eye movements."
Tang Qisheng looked at the unconscious Zhu Jie, his eyes couldn't help but turn red again, "So... so Zhu Jie is experiencing a dream."
Tang Qisheng seemed to have lost his mind, but his wording was very particular. He used the word "experiencing" instead of empty dreams or dreaming.
Everyone present was not stupid. Lu Qin showed a thoughtful expression, looked in the direction they had come from, and suddenly opened her mouth after a moment: "Do you mean that Zhu Jie is very similar to the previous Li Bai, and what trapped them is the same dream, but now the person dreaming has changed to Zhu Jie."
Although this statement was bizarre, it was not difficult to understand. At least Fatty understood it. At the same time, it also aroused his terrible memories about the word "dream." After all, in the small town in front of Mount Xixieming, they were almost wiped out by a strange dream. In the end, Wu Huan woke up the doctor, and then they broke through the siege.
And the creator of that terrible dream was even the current president of the Night Watcher, a mysterious figure even Lin Wan'er and the others found mysterious.
"But... what kind of dream is this?" Fatty raised his head and couldn't help but ask.
The current clues were too thin, and even the current speculation might not be able to stand. Fatty's question was destined to be unanswered, and the scene became silent. They still needed the next person to try and make mistakes.
Thinking of the red hijab that was tightly covered, and the bamboo basket stained with blood, Fatty's heart rate became disordered. He had a very bad feeling.
"Ahem, let me say a few words." Seeing that no one was speaking, Shao Tong volunteered to stand up, "I have a suggestion, anyone who is selected next time can do this."
"According to the experiences of Li Bai and Zhu Jie, we can be sure that approaching the late madam from the front is not dangerous, so the next person should also approach the late madam from the front, and then dodge to the side at the moment of the encounter, and then confirm what is in the bamboo basket."
"If there is really the head of the late madam in the bamboo basket, then consider yourself unlucky. It is also paving the way for the next Taoist friends. Anyway, the worst is just becoming like Zhu Jie and Li Bai, and you won't die directly."
"If there is no head in the bamboo basket, whether it is an embroidered ball or something else, this person must not act rashly, but must notify the rest of the people as soon as possible, so that even if something unexpected happens later, at least the news will be sent out, and the next person will have a much higher chance of winning."
"After successfully sending out the message, it is the next step. This person needs to take out the contents of the bamboo basket. No matter what this thing is, it is crucial. Of course, the risk is very high."
Speaking of this, Shao Tong changed his previous frivolous style, and his whole person became serious and gloomy, "I have to remind everyone that this mission mode is different from the past. If we cooperate sincerely, it is possible that no one will die. On the contrary, we may be wiped out. Everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. If anyone does something to harm their teammates, they are cutting off their own path to death while cutting off everyone's path to survival. I don't need to say more about the end of such people."
Hearing Shao Tong say these words, Fatty was dumbfounded, and even suspected that Shao Tong had amnesia. After all, he and Lu Qin had almost killed him not long ago.
Fatty couldn't help but sigh, what is the highest state of deception? It is to deceive even yourself!
But strangely, Shao Tong's face was unusually serious at this time, and he was completely different from the previous neuropath who called himself a Taoist priest.
Although everyone knew the kind of people Shao Tong and Lu Qin were, at this moment, they had to maintain at least a superficial unity, and besides, putting aside their character, there was nothing wrong with the plan proposed by Shao Tong.
"What Shao Daoshi said is right, I agree." Jiang Cheng was the first to express his position.
"Agree."
"I also agree."
The people who could still stand soon reached an agreement. Next was waiting, waiting for the arrival of the next lucky one.
But this time, the waiting time obviously became longer. Just when everyone suspected that something was wrong and even wanted to take the initiative to find the traces of the late madam, what should come finally came.
"Hmm..."
Tang Qisheng suddenly covered his head, his expression distorted, and blood vessels emerged from his forehead, which showed how much pain he was enduring.
"I... I heard it, someone, no, it is the late madam calling me! She is coming, she wants me to take the embroidered ball, this time... it's my turn..."
The last person was Zhu Jie, and this time it was his turn as a partner. Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie's luck was visibly poor. Sometimes, if you want to survive, strength alone is not enough. You also need a little bit of luck, which is crucial in the Nightmare Assault (噩梦惊袭) world.
But on the other hand, Tang Qisheng quickly calmed down after a short period of fear. Without dissatisfaction, let alone complaining, he immediately began to prepare, analyzing the possible location of the late madam and her next movement route.
"Don't have any pressure, even if you miss, we are still here." Yao Shunyu comforted.
"Take care." Jiang Cheng looked at Tang Qisheng and left quickly.
Since Tang Qisheng was selected, staying by his side would undoubtedly be dangerous, and everyone quickly dispersed with a tacit understanding.
But this time, the formation of the team changed. Tang Qisheng was on his own team, Yao Shunyu pulled Fatty, and Jiang Cheng, who should have been with Fatty, stuck to Lu Qin and Shao Tong like a dog skin plaster.
"What do you mean by this?" Lu Qin looked dissatisfied, after all, more people meant more risk of exposure.
