Dusk faded to a color between black and orange.
There seemed to be many black shadows slowly slipping out from unknown places.
suddenly.
The golden horizon was swallowed up by darkness in an instant and disappeared.
Night falls.
The small bright house formed a sharp contrast with the dark night scene outside the window.
Even at night, there is still a hot breath flowing in the air.
Cheng Ye put down the pen in his hand.
He stared blankly at the words he had written.
A notebook that I spent several hours on, with only four short sentences in it.
These four sentences are the conclusions he desperately summarized through his dialogue with Professor Guo after experiencing life and death twice today.
His hope for the rest of his life lies in these four sentences.
Cheng Ye's eyes flashed slightly.
I don’t know how long he can live in this world based on the information he has obtained so far...
Cheng Ye turned his head and looked at the lights outside the window. Those little bits of light shone in the depths of his black eyes, like a circle of diamonds embedded in them, shining brightly.
His stern and frosty expression faded, and he smiled slightly.
Suddenly I felt a little hungry.
Cheng Ye stretched out his big palm and touched his belly.
Look up at the clock on the wall.
It's already ten o'clock in the evening.
His last guess was correct; it was bad luck that followed him, not supernatural phenomena.
Supernatural events do not proceed according to the rules of a certain time gap.
Doom does not mean death.
Therefore, he still has a glimmer of hope.
No, he will survive and successfully survive the upgrade mission.
Cheng Ye stood up.
There seemed to be a twinkling light in his eyes.
He stretched his body and moved his muscles.
Hear his bones cracking.
Much more comfortable.
Cheng Ye walked to the door and passed three doors in a row before walking out of the room.
The corridor was quiet.
Cheng Ye closed the door so softly that it didn't even alert the voice-activated light.
The corridor at this moment was like a long, endless abyss, making it difficult to see clearly.
Cheng Ye stamped his foot vigorously.
One by one, the lights started from the light closest to Cheng Ye, and extended to both sides like dominoes.
The corridor suddenly lit up.
This building has four staircases and sixteen units.
Quite a crowded configuration.
But the waiting time for the elevator was not long. There was almost no pause, and the elevator arrived at Cheng Ye's floor.
Cheng Ye looked at the empty elevator. He had already raised his feet to get in, but suddenly he retracted them.
It's a bit dangerous.
I can't tell, but I feel like if something unexpected happens in such a confined space...
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through the window at the other end of the corridor.
The blow made Cheng Ye's hair fly wildly.
The lights in the corridor suddenly dimmed again, returning to the darkness once again.
Only the elevator in front of him was glowing with blazing white light.
Cheng Ye could see the darkness behind him out of the corner of his eye.
He looked at the elevator seriously.
He held the elevator door with one hand, preventing it from closing.
This is a very normal elevator. Except for the light above the head, there are four iron plates that can be seen at a glance. There are no extra iron pieces or blades. Its four walls are extremely smooth. It is impossible to think of anything that can cause bad luck.
Fall directly?
However, there is one very important piece of information analyzed today...
Now is a good time to try it.
Cheng Ye smiled slightly.
Practice is always the only criterion for testing truth.
Cheng Ye would not notice that there was a female ghost on his body, smiling close to his head and putting her head between his neck.
The hair like a waterfall fell down with inertia, covering most of Cheng Ye's body.
Above the elevator, there were countless pairs of bright eyes looking at him.
They blinked as if talking.
Cheng Ye knew nothing.
He went inside.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
Cheng Ye felt inexplicably cold and itchy.
The invisible things above him seemed to be very curious about him, getting closer and closer to him one by one.
Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.
It was like the sound of wind leaking in.
And his exposed skin became extremely itchy.
But he didn't move.
He spent nearly four hours organizing his thoughts and reasoning. He felt that he would not die so easily.
The elevator began to go down slowly.
The numbers on the display began to change.
32……33……
31…
……17……
…
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows. Did he miss a layer just now?
Suddenly, the elevator began to shake violently, as if it would fall at any time.
Cheng Ye held the four walls of the elevator with both hands, his face expressionless.
The elevator began to shake wildly, and screams and roars that were not of this world could be heard in my ears.
But Cheng Ye was as steady as a mountain, and there was no trace of timidity on his face.
come down?
Will not.
He is already 80% sure that he knows what the bad luck is.
The remaining 20% is due to incomplete information.
As long as he pays attention, nothing will happen to him.
Cheng Ye stood quietly, without yelling or panicking.
He held both sides of the elevator with his hands, trying to stand as steady as possible.
This is the key to survival.
...
A few seconds later, the elevator door opened and Cheng Ye successfully reached the ground alive.
He looked back at the elevator with a somewhat thoughtful look.
Although he couldn't see anything, he still bent down like a gentleman and bowed to the things in the elevator.
Fortunately it's night now.
There were not many people coming and going, and no one noticed his weird behavior, otherwise, he would have been arrested as a lunatic.
Pushing open the security door of this building, warm breath suddenly hit my face.
It only belongs to summer, which is hot, restless, and stuffy.
Cheng Ye searched for the night snack stalls on the ranking list on his mobile phone.
I found a food stall quite close to my home.
It takes about ten minutes to walk there.
Everything in it is what he likes to eat.
Cheng Ye regarded it as a walk and walked slowly and leisurely towards the food stall.
He wants to integrate into this world as much as possible so that he can learn more about them.
...
As we walked out of the community, there were more people on the road.
Cheng Ye looked at the world with interest.
Ever since he guessed that the world in the dungeon was the real world, Cheng Ye became interested in the sea of people coming and going.
He felt that they were all human beings with flesh and blood and thoughts of their own.
For example, the little red riding hood walking towards him now looks very worried, maybe he just encountered something difficult.
So he lowered the brim of his hat, not wanting people around him to see his expression.
For example, a couple diagonally opposite each other are hugging each other, like Siamese twins. They are hugging each other tightly on such a hot day, and they look like they have just fallen in love.
Another example is the lonely old man playing the erhu not far away. He is still playing so late. Perhaps it is because he is the only one left at home and is lonely when he goes back...
...
Everyone has his own life, which is not the same.
Cheng Ye briefly glanced at the people he interacted with and found them interesting.
His steps continued unabated, and he soon reached the barbecue stall.
There are still two or three places at the barbecue stall that are empty, and the rest are full.
And these three positions look like multiple-choice questions given to him by God.
One is near the road, one is in the middle, and the other is near the boss's stove.
Cheng Ye looked at it with interest.
It's a bit like a harbinger of doom.
With the successful experience just now, Cheng Ye became more comfortable now.
He visually measured the distance from here to the road.
Yeah, it's a bit dangerous.
He looked at the position near the boss's stove again, staring at the gas tank and blinking.
Bad luck, not death.
He raised his legs and walked towards the middle position.
Most late night snackers don't like this location.
The fans are concentrated on both sides, and the middle position is crowded and airtight.
Even though it's outdoors, you can feel as if you're being suffocated by a plastic bag while eating.
Hot and stuffy.
However, for the sake of life and to fill the stomach.
Cheng Ye did not choose a location close to the road, nor did he choose a location close to the boss.
Nip problems in the bud.
As I just said, misfortune is not death.
Cheng Ye got a shabby menu with few dishes on it, but the degree of damage on the menu convinced Cheng Ye that the food here must be delicious.
"Flavored shrimp, one hand butter, one hand beef, one cucumber, three bottles of cold beer, thank you."
Cheng Ye took a quick look and ordered a few dishes.
The boss wrote quickly on a small purple-red book. After finishing writing, he left the white paper behind, tore off the purple-red paper and gave it to Cheng Ye, then took the menu and left.
There were noisy voices all around.
Beside him, some people were bragging, some were having a drinking contest, and everyone had their own happiness.
Perhaps in such a cheerful atmosphere, Cheng Ye also felt a little relaxed.
He slouched back in his chair.
The sweat made the clothes and the chair stick together in an instant.
Although it was hot, it was somewhat comfortable.
If everything goes as he imagined, it should be possible to survive seven days...
What I am more worried about now is that the two worlds are merging.
What would happen if the fusion was completely completed?
Was Xiao Wang's escape because he discovered that fusion is irreversible?
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows.
The store served the food very quickly, and the cucumbers and cold beer were already delivered.
Cheng Ye quickly opened the cold beer, and bubbles suddenly spurted out.
Tomorrow, he wanted to go to the laboratory to see the stone.
Some things may be most intuitive only if you see them with your own eyes.
Transparent and shiny stone......
I don’t know what it will be like.
Will it affect me?
Cheng Ye took a big gulp of beer, and a cold feeling suddenly went down from his throat, cooling him down a lot.
When he took his first bite of cucumber, he was full of praise for its sour and refreshing taste.
Patting cucumbers is the easiest and most difficult dish.
Being able to handle the ingredients so clearly, Cheng Ye began to look forward to the next dishes.
He ate and drank.
From time to time, his eyes would look toward the boss's stove.
Seems to be observing something.
Maybe I watched it too many times.
The boy next to him thought he was hungry, so he shouted to the boss enthusiastically: "Boss, you need to serve the 13 tables of guests faster. Look at the people looking at you eagerly."
The boss was shirtless and his big belly was shaking. He waved his arms and picked up the towel on his shoulder to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "Okay, I'll be here soon."
Cheng Ye turned his head and looked at the boy at the table next to him.
The little brother smiled and raised his glass.
Cheng Ye followed and drank.
This feeling of familiarity and enthusiasm also made him feel a little warm.
It seemed that he hadn't felt this kind of fireworks for a long time...
Just when he thought of this, Cheng Ye was stunned for a moment.
That's not right, he has only been in the game for a long time, how come he hasn't felt it for a long time?
Cheng Ye thought hard, but couldn't remember what happened before entering the game.
There seems to be a long blank space.
He only had the last screen into the game, and Wei Sheng'an had gently reminded him that it might be a scam.
ha.
Cheng Ye lowered his head and smiled mockingly.
He felt like a puppet.
He played with the glass in various ways, and the glass reflected his cheeks, squishing his appearance into a ball due to the refraction of light.
You still have to work hard to upgrade before you can get close to the secret.
Now that I have more than one million points, gambling is indeed the fastest game to make money.
Of course, it is also the fastest game to lose money.
Cheng Ye shook his head, not planning to waste money and cheat points anymore.
There are other ways to make money quickly.
Thinking about it, Cheng Ye glanced at the stove again.
It wasn't that he was hungry, but he felt that something would happen to that stove.
Like bang.
But I also thought that if I hadn't been sitting next to my boss, maybe I wouldn't have exploded.
He still has some unconfirmed guesses.
So we are doing corresponding experiments.
For example, was this misfortune designed by him in real time, or was it already set?
.......
The boss serves the food really quickly.
In less than ten minutes, all the dishes were served.
Cheng Ye adjusted his position slightly so that he could see the table near the street from the corner of his eye.
The seats on the street were quickly filled with people, including a few young-looking brothers.
On such a hot day, neither of them disliked each other's sweat, so they came together arm in arm.
Now it is inconvenient for him to keep looking up at the boss's gas stove, so he can only take a brief look at it in this way.
Cheng Ye was eating and drinking, using his peripheral vision to glance at the table on the street from time to time.
Until he had eaten everything, everything went on as usual without any incident.
Those people were talking and laughing, but they didn't know that they were only a few tables away not far away.
They've been torn apart several times in someone's head...
Cheng Ye smiled and took off his crayfish eating gloves.
It seems that it is the second situation...
After eating and drinking, Cheng Ye patted his belly and stood up.
He didn't go to the boss, but called the clerk over.
It’s nothing, I’m just afraid of death.
Even if he doesn't die, it would still be ugly to have missing arms.
After paying the bill in a few minutes, he changed direction and continued walking.
He planned to go around in a circle, go home, take a shower and go to bed.
Only when he sees Shitou tomorrow will he have a chance to get more information.
Since the original owner could tell something was wrong just by looking at the stone.
Then you can definitely do it yourself.
I hope the stone can surprise me tomorrow...
In order to cool down, Cheng Ye looked at the map on the navigation system and broke into an uninhabited alley.
Because the alley is small enough, the wind blowing in finally feels a little cooler.
Cheng Ye walked forward slowly.
The alley is getting closer.
After passing through this alley, we are almost home.
Under the moonlight, Cheng Ye's shadows were stretched thin, as if they were alive, and the passing shadows kept up with them one by one.
As a result, Cheng Ye's shadow turned into a thick and long line.
They seemed to be holding hands, following Cheng Ye home.
At this time, Cheng Ye seemed to hear someone complaining softly: "How did he understand the rules so quickly? It's so boring."
Cheng Ye turned around in confusion.
The night is blurry.
Behind him is an empty alley.
Nothing.
ps: The main line is finally entering...
Guess what one of the rules of doom is, it’s actually pretty obvious.
The answer will be written tomorrow (the day after tomorrow at the latest.)
