On the other side, Yan Yueming had been trudging through the wind and snow for more than half an hour.
Half an hour ago, they left a copy of the "Incoming and Outgoing Instructions" at the door of the strange hut, and then walked along the asphalt road towards the quiet neighborhood. If everything goes well, at their walking speed, they can reach the silent neighborhood in about an hour.
The three of them were not optimistic about this, and sure enough, within ten minutes of walking out, they found a frozen body in the woods on the roadside.
Wen Renjing volunteered to check. Although Yan Yueming was scared, she gritted her teeth and stepped forward to help.
This is the third time he has entered the gap, but it is the first time he has faced death. This kind of fear and anxiety cannot be described in words.
After all, Yan Yueming is an ordinary person. Even though he knows that there is a gap and life and death are determined, he is not to the point where he can be indifferent to death. The more he checked, the colder his heart became.
Wen Renjing also looked solemn: "Like the man who attacked us in the strange hut, he has a gun and there are spikes hidden in his teeth. He should be an accomplice. He has injuries on his body. They don't look fatal and he doesn't bleed much. It's more like - freezing to death."
Hearing the cause of death, Yan Yueming couldn't help but tremble, and soon thought of the unconscious man on the third floor of the strange hut. How is he now?
Ondine had already put on the little purple hat.
If there hadn't been this snowstorm and this person hadn't died, and they were still trapped in the strange cabin, would this person have gone there and attacked them? The two of them should cooperate inside and outside...
Yan Yueming hurriedly patted his face. He couldn't think about it anymore. He was scaring himself. The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid.
"Let's go." Li Zheng remained calm, and the three of them set off again.
But this time, not long after they left, their worries became a reality. Heavy snow blocked the road between the strange hut and the quiet neighborhood.
They had no choice but to go back the way they came. As a result, there was no way forward and no hope for the return journey. Along the way, not to mention the frozen corpses on the roadside, even the strange huts were missing.
The sky is so vast that it seems like there is only an asphalt road left.
There is no way to make a difference.
Yan Yueming walked in the wind and snow for so long, and even if she wore thick enough clothes, she was still very cold. However, although his body was cold, his brain was extremely active. While rubbing his face to prevent it from stiffening, he said: "Ondine also said that he came from the wind and snow. There was snow in the wind and snow, right? Now there is snow in the gaps. It’s snowing, is there any connection between the two?”
He was so cold that he couldn't speak clearly, but Li Zheng and Wen Renjing still heard clearly.
Wen Renjing cast an appreciative look and said with a trembling voice, "Junior, I have an idea."
Yan Yueming smiled sheepishly, and when she smiled, she breathed out, causing her glasses to blur. At this time, Li Zheng suddenly said: "Maybe we have entered another gap."
The two of them looked over together and saw a bridge appearing in front of them.
Yan Yueming immediately set his sights on the stone tablet at the head of the bridge. There is also snow falling on the top of the stone tablet, which is engraved with four large red characters with flying dragons and phoenixes - Orange-Red Town.
Wen Renjing's eyes widened, "I'll go."
Separated by a bridge, on one end of the bridge is a lonely asphalt road with biting cold wind and drifting snow, but on the other side of the bridge is a warm town with bright lights although it is also drifting with snow.
But in the gap, the warmer the thing, the more it looks like a scam.
Yan Yueming remembered clearly and distinctly that Angding mentioned this orange-red town. It said that it was a deep gap where it had met the wanderer No. 11.
How could the gap in the depths come here?
"I've never been to this deadly town, that crow-mouthed Ondine." Xiao Ming began to possess Xiao Ming when Wen Renjing began to think, "Wait a minute, he didn't know in advance that we would go to Orange-Red." It’s a small town, so you mentioned it on purpose, right?”
Li Zheng looked calm, "It may know the changes in the wind and snow, but it doesn't necessarily know that the orange-red town will appear here."
Yan Yueming: "Why?"
Li Zheng: "It came from the wind and snow, so of course it will know the changes outside. But what happens in the gap is unpredictable. I prefer that the gap is disrupted and the position is random."
Yan Yueming immediately thought of the pen that Li Zheng casually dropped on the ground in order to explain to him the connection between gaps and gaps at No. 11, Silent Street.
Each pen represents a gap, and the pens are scattered all over the floor, some scattered and some overlapping each other.
The current situation is that those pens were caught and thrown away again? So their positions have changed, the way they overlap has changed, and the pathways have changed.
After thinking about it this way, Yan Yueming completely figured it out.
But the gap in the depths was so terrifying. Yan Yueming felt like a seedling growing in the dry land. It finally broke out of the ground, but the consciousness of the world still wanted to uproot the seedling for him.
He can actually take it step by step, down to earth, and slowly.
Thinking of this, Yan Yueming felt like crying but had no tears.
"Huh? Where are the entry and exit instructions here? Why are they gone?" Wen Renjing walked to the bridge boldly and took a look at the bridge. There was no sign of any announcement on the bridge, nor on the stone tablet.
Yan Yueming thought that there were NPCs in Orange Town, and suddenly thought of a question that he had ignored, "Will NPCs deliberately damage or directly remove the access instructions?"
If they can, then when there are NPCs in this gap, isn't the search and rescue department doing a useless job?
Li Zheng answered him, "No." r />
Yan Yueming felt a little calmer, but still puzzled, "Why?"
"Because they don't know the truth about the world." Wen Renjing couldn't help but interject, "Ondine is a special case. It can communicate with you normally, talk about world consciousness, and talk about your aunt. Most likely because it still retains its own self. Consciousness. But 99% of NPCs are not. They act strictly according to their own character settings, and generally speaking they will not leave the gap where they are, and their range of activities is limited. r, can you understand what this means?"
Of course Yan Yueming can. NPC refers to non-player characters that are controlled by the system and have their own behavior patterns. Wen Renjing specifically said the full name, and he understood it immediately.
This kind of electronic game terminology is best understood by using electronic games as a substitute.
NPCs don’t know the truth, they are just characters responsible for following the plot and issuing tasks. They will not know the existence of the system, they will not know that they are actually a string of data, and they will not know who the players are or what the real world is.
Yan Yueming then asked: "As the creator, think of it as the GM, that is, the system. Then why doesn't it directly embed an instruction: tear down all access instructions?"
This question stopped Wen Renjing.
At this moment, on the other side of the bridge, a figure suddenly ran out of the town. Because it was a windy and snowy night, the visibility was low. Even if the lights of the town opposite were on, they still couldn't see clearly.
It wasn't until the man came all the way to the bridge that they finally saw the other person's true face in Lushan.
It was a man in his thirties, dressed as an ordinary office worker, panting and sweating profusely from running. He saw three people standing on this side of the bridge. Their eyes widened and their faces looked frightened, but they still didn't stop and rushed over with gritted teeth.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
He waved his hands, looking a bit fierce and angry.
Yan Yueming subconsciously stepped aside, and the man rushed past him, as if there was a ghost chasing him behind. Yan Yueming couldn't understand why, he only felt that the town was even scarier.
Li Zheng said: "Catch him."
What?
catch him?
"Go! Junior!" Wen Renjing took the lead and chased after him.
What a young boy like the wind, but his ill-fitting clothes held him back and he couldn't run fast no matter how hard he ran. Yan Yueming glanced at Li Zheng again and saw that he had his hands in his pockets, like a quiet handsome man, with no intention of moving. He then gritted his teeth, pulled out his small golden ax and joined the battle.
let! I! Come!
Yan Yueming ran very fast and quickly surpassed Wen Renjing. He was actually quite tired. Traveling on a snowy night was not an easy task, but you just have to push yourself. If you don't push yourself to the limit, you don't know how good you can be.
"Stop!" Yan Yueming shouted, staring at the back in front of him. He found that when he only had this goal in his eyes, his attention became super focused, and all the wind, snow, and fatigue were gradually forgotten.
The man running in front was unable to keep up and ran slower and slower.
There are small woods on the asphalt road. The woods are dark and the visibility is even lower. After running a few steps along the asphalt road, he turned around and saw that there were still soldiers chasing him. He broke down and shouted, "Don't chase me!" and ran into the woods in a panic. The woods were no smoother than the asphalt road, so he staggered while running. When Wen Renjing behind him saw this, he simply stopped, grabbed a handful of snow, kneaded it into a ball, and threw it out with all his strength.
"Bang!" The snowball hit the man on the back of the shoulder. He was already running staggering and fell down.
Yan Yueming's eyes brightened slightly, and she swooped over and held down the man's upper body. The man still tried to struggle. He looked older and stronger than Yan Yueming, and Yan Yueming was already out of breath and would definitely not be able to fight.
what to do?
Yan Yueming caught a glimpse of a small tree nearby, and then glanced at the small golden ax in his hand. He was so anxious that he used all his strength and struck the tree next to him with an axe, "Be honest!"
The effect of this ax is earth-shattering.
The man was stunned and looked at the small tree in horror. I saw a small golden ax as big as a palm embedded deeply into the trunk of the tree. With a "click", the upper part of the tree fell to the ground.
The snow fell, covering his whole body, and even fell on the man's open mouth, which he could not close for a long time.
Yan Yueming's mouth opened wider than his!
Behind the two shocked people, there was Wen Renjing who arrived in a hurry but was equally shocked. He also opened his mouth and looked at Wen Renjing with wide eyes: "Junior, I don't know what surprises you have, junior!"
The junior shook his head wildly in his heart, but his face regained its composure. He was excited, but he was really out of strength. He had chopped so hard just now that his hands were shaking now.
He could only pretend to be fierce, pulled back the little golden ax, pointed it at the man and threatened: "Have you seen how powerful I am? Why don't you get up and come back with me!"
The man was really frightened, and was so frightened that he burst into tears and collapsed.
"Who the hell are you? It's so scary... Why am I here? What the hell is this place? I just missed a day of work, damn it! I don't want to work overtime during the holiday. !”
The social animal collapses in an instant.
Yan Yueming was a little at a loss and asked Wen Renjing in a low voice: "What's wrong with him?"
Wen Renjing had some experience. He touched his chin and said, "You must be scared to death. It is normal for ordinary people to behave like this when they fall into a gap for the first time. After all, the gap is more dangerous now than usual." , after all, it is an orange-red town.”
