Actually, promised? Xiao Lang mentioned the heart in his throat and put it back.
He touched his nose and said jokingly, "Du Yan, don't you know, when I invited you to go with me just now, I was more nervous than confessing, for fear that you would refuse."
Du Yan only thought that Xiao Lang was in order to reassure himself, so he replied: "I went to Shunping originally to collect the wind. If there are people like you who are familiar with the place to lead the team, it's too late to thank you, so what? Would you refuse?"
Liang Fei, who was on the side, completely missed the point, he squeezed his eyes and teased Xiao Lang: "Oh, Xiao Lang, our famous male god in the school, has a black history of being rejected for his confession. "
Before Xiao Lang could speak, Tian Luo, who was beside him, waved his hands again and again: "Senior is just joking. In high school, it was only others who ran after him. He kept a distance from the girls in the school and never listened to him. Said that he had any rumors of confessing his puppy love."
Wei Zizhe said with emotion: "I really don't know what kind of girl I want to make Xiao Lang tempted. Your vision is too high."
His girlfriend Zhou Tian took over: "That's right, my roommates in the courtyard are so proactive, you won't even come out to have a meal with them."
When young people of this age talk about girls and love, the atmosphere is always very warm and uncontrollable.
Just when everyone was clamoring for Xiao Lang to say a standard for choosing a mate, Xiao Lang's eyes were a little uncomfortable and drifted to Du Yan who was sitting by the window.
An idea suddenly popped into his mind, if that person was a girl. It seems to be completely in line with his mate selection criteria.
Unfortunately, Du Yan is a boy.
***
The train rumbled all the way forward, and in the blink of an eye, it was the early morning of the second day, and it was less than two hours before it arrived in Shunping City.
Early in the morning, after washing up, everyone sat in the lower bunk and chatted while waiting for the train to arrive.
After nearly a day of getting along with each other, Du Yan and Xiao Lang were quite familiar with each other, and they would add a word or two when they were chatting.
While we were chatting happily, the carriage suddenly fell into darkness.
Zhou Tian was originally a little timid, and when the carriage was dark, she let out an exclamation and grabbed Wei Zizhe's hand beside her.
Xiao Lang's voice rang at the right time: "It's okay, it's time to enter the tunnel."
It turned out that the train entered the tunnel, but the lights in the carriage did not come on in time for some unknown reason. After about ten seconds, the lights in the carriage turned on one after another.
Xiao Lang did not know how many times he took this train, but he was very aware of the situation along the way. He explained, "Shunping has a very special terrain, surrounded by mountains, so there are many tunnels."
"Is it like a small basin?" Du Yan asked.
Xiao Lang nodded: "It's almost, so the tunnels behind are one after the other. The lights will stay on for a while, and they won't be turned off."
Sure enough, there were endless tunnels throughout the journey, and almost half of the entire train was spent in the tunnels.
This made Xiao Lang's roommates, the children who grew up in the plains a little surprised.
Xiao Lang said with a smile, "These tunnels are relatively short. When we get to the destination, there is a very long tunnel, and the train will run in the tunnel for at least 20 minutes."
Tian Luo said, "Senior, have you heard that the tunnel collapsed when it rained a while ago?"
Xiao Lang nodded: "Listen to my dad, but no trains passed by at that time, and no major casualties were caused. It seems that the traffic was reopened not long ago."
Zhou Tian became a little worried again, and his voice trembled: "The tunnel just collapsed not long ago, wouldn't it be a little unsafe?"
Wei Zizhe laughed at her, and after being hammered, he said seriously: "You think too much, it is because the tunnel collapsed not long ago that this tunnel is particularly safe. If the relevant departments are afraid of a second accident, the materials used for reinforcement are the best. , you don't have to worry."
When Du Yan heard this, he lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the unknown darkness outside the window. As they say, that super-long tunnel is the origin of all tragedies.
Shunping is an ancient city with a very long history. It existed as early as the pre-Qin era, and because of the terrain, it was once a battleground for the military.
That tunnel went directly through Wan Wanling.
Wanling Mountain was actually a mass grave in ancient times. Back then, when the war broke out in Shunping, almost all the people in the entire city were slaughtered, with corpses scattered everywhere and blood flowing into rivers.
The piled up corpses were thrown onto this mountain, and its name should actually be Wanshiling. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, because the name was too unlucky, it was changed to the current Wanling Mountain.
The collapse some time ago happened to destroy the formation set up by the experts to suppress the grievances of Wanling that persisted all year round. In addition, Xiao Lang's life is special, and when he passed by by train, his resentment resonated. In the end, he and his companions fell into another Shunping City.
Du Yan decided to kill Xiao Lang, not just to be the villain.
The fate of these people is destined to be trapped in another Shunping City, and all the souls of Shunping City will not let Xiao Lang go. The most perfect ending that Du Yan could plan was to let Xiao Lang die in his hands and his friends to escape.
Du Yan looked up at the backpack he put on the luggage rack.
As Xiao Lang guessed, they were all art supplies, but all kinds of talisman paper cinnabar.
That's right, Du Yan's identity is not an art lover, but a disciple of a hidden sect of heavenly masters. This time he came out of the mountain to train as a teacher.
However, his sect is not the orthodox Tianshi sect, but the evil spirit of the ghost.
Du Yan's plan was very simple, to use Shunping's special terrain and Xiao Lang's special destiny to refine him into a ghost king. Then the villain himself can wait to be attacked by the ghost king.
The formed ghost king has reason and memory, and can command all ghosts. At that time, Xiao Lang can destroy the other Shunping city that trapped him with just a wave of his hand, and the nightmare will end there.
The train finally reached the longest tunnel. Xiao Lang's friends were used to this continuous tunnel, and they didn't feel anything wrong with this unusually long tunnel.
Du Yan, who had been looking out of the window, found that the train's time in the tunnel was much longer than the normal twenty minutes.
He glanced at the college students who were still chatting, and it seemed that no one noticed this strange.
However, Xiao Lang noticed Du Yan's gaze, he stood up and took a bottle of drink and handed it to Du Yan.
He opened his mouth and asked, "I think it's boring for you to sit here alone. Would you like to go and play games with them?"
Du Yan shook his head: "It's okay, I like to be alone."
Xiao Lang hit a wall, but he didn't plan to back down.
He also looked out of the pitch-black window, looking for something to say: "Do you think this tunnel seems too long?"
Du Yan didn't intend to cause panic at this time: "It's a bit long. But you're not saying that the mountains here are continuous, and it's normal for the tunnel to be longer."
Xiao Lang sat down opposite Du Yan, he smiled and asked, "Du Yan, are you afraid of ghosts?"
Du Yan was stunned for a moment and replied, "I'm not afraid. Why are you asking this?"
Xiao Lang said: "I just remembered some stories about this tunnel. It is said that there were many accidents during the construction of this tunnel at that time. In the end, an expert was invited to cast a spell to successfully open the tunnel."
Tian Luo, who was on the side, heard their conversation and said with great interest, "Yes, yes, one of my uncles happened to be in this construction team at the time, and what he said was terrifying."
Under this special circumstance, everyone's interest was aroused, even the timid Zhou Tian showed an eager expression while holding Wei Zizhe's arm tightly.
Encouraged by everyone, Tian Luo began to tell all kinds of supernatural rumors he heard from his uncle.
What happened when a shadow was swaying above the tunnel during construction, what was a man who was clearly punching a hole in the tunnel to release a mine, but was suddenly patted on the shoulder or something like that.
Du Yan was not very interested, so he stood up and stood facing the window for a while.
Xiao Lang looked at his thin back, and for some reason, also stood up.
Xiao Lang just walked behind Du Yan when the train suddenly shook violently. Du Yan didn't check for a while, took a step back, and happened to bump into Xiao Lang's chest.
Xiao Lang reached out to help him subconsciously, but his hand happened to fall on Du Yan's waist. When he started, he only felt that his waist was thin and strong. It seemed that Du Yan was not as thin as he seemed.
After Du Yan stood firm, he turned around and said to Xiao Lang, "Thank you."
The train stopped so suddenly.
"Dear passengers, it's a temporary stop now..."
The radio in the car sounded just right, reassuring the passengers who were a little nervous.
Do you stop temporarily? Du Yan turned his head and looked at the car window.
Outside the empty window just now, there were rotten faces, pale palms, and deformed faces, densely crowding every inch of the window.
Even with a mutilated face and a distorted expression, Du Yan could see greed and desire in those eyes.
Du Yan followed their line of sight, looked over, and happened to land on Xiao Lang.
Those coveted and greedy eyes were all focused on Xiao Lang.
Xiao Lang was already looking at Du Yan, but now his eyes met Du Yan's. He only felt that Du Yan looked at him a little strangely, with some inexplicable smile.
He looked down at his clothes, there was nothing wrong with him. Xiao Lang walked over and asked curiously, "What are you looking at."
He looked over from where Du Yan was standing, it was just pitch black outside, and he couldn't see anything.
"I just think the darkness is very interesting." Du Yan said vaguely.
"interesting?"
Du Yan nodded: "When your vision is blocked and your eyes are useless, imagination can set sail. You can imagine that in this darkness, there is a completely different world, and there are completely different people living in it. resident."
Du Yan curled his fingers and tapped lightly on the glass, but the faces that were attached to the glass window seemed to be hit hard by something and instantly turned to ashes.
"Really, some hot eyes."
Xiao Lang looked bewildered, and in the end he could only say helplessly: "As expected, there is a natural gap between me, an engineering student, and your art students."
Du Yan looked at him and smiled: "Really?"
