Desperate Night

The four eyes met.

Yu Hong's annoyance suddenly exploded.

An extremely nauseating feeling surged from his stomach.

His abdomen twitched and hurt, his whole body began to numb and stiffened uncontrollably.

An indescribable sense of fear surged from his heart and flowed through his body.

Around his eyes, black blood vessels began to bulge like forked tree roots.

The blood vessels became thicker and thicker, as if they were about to explode.

But at this moment, the reinforced white stone in his trouser pocket suddenly released a cold breath and rushed into the outside of his thigh.

This breath, like a steel nail, pierced into Yu Hong's body, whose whole body began to stiffen.

Pulled him out of the stiffness.

Bang! !

His legs softened, and the whole person fell to the ground powerlessly, and his eyes also broke away from the gaze with the other party.

Huh!

Huh!

Huh!

Lowering his head, Yu Hong gasped for air, feeling the stiffness of his body being quickly relieved by the enhanced white stone in his trouser pocket.

He felt a strong sense of surviving a disaster.

Not daring to look out the window again, he quickly took out the enhanced white stone and found that the red symbol on the surface of the stone was glowing with extremely weak red fluorescence.

If you don't look carefully, you can't find it at all.

'Good baby! ' He was glad in his heart, and was extremely glad that he chose this white stone as the first one to be enhanced.

Since the little bastard used it to save himself, he realized that this thing was absolutely very important.

Fortunately, he was not wrong.

Sitting on the ground, slowly backing away from the window, Yu Hong didn't dare to look around anymore. Who would have thought that even a glance at this ghost place would be dangerous.

'But why. Why didn't the little bastard and Dr. Xu encounter danger when they went out? '

'What other precautions do they have? '

Yu Hong felt a little puzzled.

But soon, the huge consumption made him tired and sleepy again.

Too weak

This body.

Holding the enhanced white stone tightly in his palm, he climbed back into bed, and slept on the smelly gray quilt. After waiting for a long time, he made sure that nothing outside the door and window could get in, and then he relaxed slightly and fell asleep again.

I don't know how long it has been.

Maybe a few hours, maybe a whole day.

When Yu Hong woke up again, the little stutterer was already busy in the room.

"You, woke up?" She noticed the movement, turned her head quickly, and looked at Yu Hong on the bed happily.

"Come and eat." Soon, she went to fiddle with a bowl of black porridge and started to feed Yu Hong.

Unconsciously, Yu Hong swallowed the last spoonful of porridge, and his body felt much better.

"Are there any more?" he asked.

The little stutterer got up and searched for a while again, but this time, it seemed to be gone.

She searched for a long time, but couldn't bring any more black porridge.

"I'm done" Soon, she returned to the bed, a little frustrated.

Yu Hong sat up, slowly got out of bed, walked to the corner of the sundries, and saw a wooden barrel she was looking for.

It seemed to be the black raw material in it.

It was a kind of multicolored powder, and there was still a little residue at the bottom of the barrel.

He held the edge of the barrel and looked, and it was indeed gone.

Gurgle~

Suddenly, a stomach gurgle came from behind.

It was the little stutterer.

She blinked her eyes, touched her stomach, and smiled foolishly.

Yu Hong turned his head and looked at her.

"You didn't eat?"

"Hehehe, I forgot." The little stutterer smiled foolishly.

It turned out that this guy gave him all the remaining food.

Yu Hong was a little helpless. He didn't know how this girl survived in such a dangerous environment until now.

He only knew that he felt a little guilty.

"What should I do? Where did you get all this food? I'm better now, and I can help find it." He said seriously.

"It's okay. Yiyi, you are strong!" The little stutterer patted his chest and showed an indifferent expression.

"I helped you. You help me find my father and grandfather." She continued to speak one word at a time.

"Is that why you saved me?" Yu Hong understood. It's good to have a request. If there is a request, there will be a chance for him to repay the other party.

He doesn't like to owe favors to others, let alone such a life-saving favor.

"Yes!" Little Stutter nodded vigorously.

"Okay! If I have the ability, I will definitely help." Yu Hong nodded. Although the environment was too dangerous and harsh, the black mark on the back of his hand also gave him a glimmer of hope for the future.

According to the ability of the black mark, if all things can be strengthened, then he may be able to use this to build a safer hut or base!

After personal testing, the door and window protection of this house can't stop the weird and dangerous things outside.

Whether it's the white-clothed man before, the black bug, or the unknown horror disguised as Dr. Xu just now.

They can't stop it.

"By the way, I want to ask, when you were not here just now." Yu Hong quickly told the other party what happened before.

After hearing the description, the little stutterer's face became serious.

"It's a ghost!" she answered.

"That's also a ghost?" Yu Hong frowned.

"Let me answer this question." Doctor Xu's voice came from outside the door again.

The little stutterer quickly went over, opened the door, and happily welcomed people in.

Doctor Xu changed her clothes and wore a mountaineering outfit, camouflage tights and a large backpack, indicating that she was likely planning to go out into the mountains.

After entering the door, she glanced at Yu Hong.

"In our place, there are two kinds of ghost shadows that often appear in the black disaster. One is the white shadow you encountered before, and the second is the pretender you mentioned before."

"The white shadow is not dangerous. As long as you look at the other party carefully and don't blink, you can get away safely. And pyroxene can also restrain it and temporarily disperse it.

But the pretender is troublesome. You must be vigilant at all times and cannot believe in anything beyond the agreement."

Dr. Xu stared at Yu Hong seriously and added.

"Agreement is very, very important here!"

"Agreement?" Yu Hong seemed to have thought of something.

"Yes, anyone must make an agreement before separating from his companions. When you meet up, what is the secret code, what situations can you encounter in the middle to open the doors and windows, etc., all of these must be agreed in advance. Otherwise, the pretender will take advantage of the opportunity and kill one by one." Dr. Xu sighed.

"This is also why the residents of Baiqiu Village live alone. Even during the day, pretenders may appear and attack."

Pretender.

This new concept made Yu Hong's heart rise with an uncontrollable enlightenment.

It may be difficult for him to go back to his original life.

"Can you take me out to see? I want to go outside and see if I can go to the city." Yu Hong was silent for a while, then spoke.

"Take pyroxene, which is the white stone. As long as you go out in broad daylight, there will be no problem, but you have to control the time of coming back." Doctor Xu replied, "In addition, although the disguisers can appear in the daytime, generally only people with weak bodies can see them. If you are healthy and normal, you can't see them."

Yu Hong immediately understood.

"Is there no way or means to kill these monsters!?" he asked in a deep voice.

"No, anyway, we haven't found it so far, and the national department hasn't tested it." Doctor Xu shook his head, "Okay, Yiyi and I are going to go out. If you want to come, hurry up. Baiqiu Village doesn't keep trash, and you have been dragging Yiyi down for a long time."

She seemed very dissatisfied with Yu Hong, and looked at him with a bit of unkindness.

"I remember your life-saving grace." Yu Hong said seriously.

"First, you need to survive on your own." Doctor Xu sneered, not wanting to look at Yu Hong anymore, and turned to talk to the little stutterer.

Soon, the little stutterer began to prepare things and equipment for going out.

Yu Hong's body recovered a lot, and he also packed up.

He didn't mention the enhanced white stone, not to mention that he couldn't explain where the enhanced white stone came from, but judging from the ability of the black seal, this would definitely become his biggest reliance in the future.

He was not sure if other people had this ability, and the information he obtained was too little, so it was most important to collect as much information as possible.

This place is too dangerous, and you must be cautious at every step.

"I will repay you." Thinking of this, Yu Hong spoke again and repeated it.

Doctor Xu didn't even look at him, pretending not to hear. Obviously, she thought it was good enough that Yu Hong didn't drag down the little stutterer.

Soon, a large cloth bag was packed out and placed on the ground.

Doctor Xu picked it up and carefully placed it on the back of the little stutterer. The cloth bag was full of white stones with symbols drawn on them.

"First, go to Old Yu to exchange food, then go to the open-pit mine to dig pyroxene, and finally collect pigments. Including the time to return, we must reach Old Yu within an hour. We can rest at the mine for one night on the way, and return tomorrow after collecting pigments." Doctor Xu arranged.

"Is it far?" Yu Hong frowned. He felt that there might be problems with his physical fitness and he had not fully recovered.

"Don't go. You can't keep up. Just walk around and come back." Doctor Xu said coldly. "Light candles at night, hold on to pyroxene during the day, don't open the door for anyone to come, don't look outside, and everything will be fine. This is also a test for you. If you can't pass it, it means that you can't adapt to this environment and won't live long. Die early and be free."

"." Isn't this a bit too direct?

Yu Hong was speechless.

"Yiyi has saved a lot of people. I was also saved by her before, but you know those people who were saved." Doctor Xu wanted to say more, but was pulled by the little stutterer.

She reacted and stopped talking immediately. This time, he simply ignored Yu Hong completely, took his things, opened the door, and walked out with the little stutterer.

Yu Hong paused behind him, took the key to the house, and followed him out.

He decided to go outside to have a look.

No matter what, the source of food and drink must be solved first, and he can't always rely on a disabled little girl to support him.

Moreover, the most important thing is that only by understanding more first can we find more effective ways to survive and cope with it.

With a click, he went out of the door, and Yu Hong finally closed the house with his backhand.

The three of them lined up in a line and walked to the left along the gravel road at the door.

The weather outside was gentle, neither cold nor hot, and the sun shone on the body with a faint warmth.

Among the three, Dr. Xu walked in front, followed by the little stutterer, and then Yu Hong.

After walking along the gravel road for a few minutes, they came to the exit of the village.

At the end of the gravel road, there is a black mud road.

The dry black mud road surface can accommodate two cars driving side by side, which is very wide.

The road was dark, winding through the abandoned green fields on both sides, extending to the distance, until it reached the dense and deep forest at the foot of the mountain.

Yu Hong noticed that there were few weeds on the edge of the black mud road, and two rows of black wooden fences were built.

Many parts of the fences had rotted and were covered with moss.

"This is the only old road leading to the outside world." Doctor Xu said. "If you keep walking along it for about thirty miles, you will reach the nearest town, but it may be more dangerous than here. The more people there are, the more dangers there are, and the more dangerous guys will be attracted."

"Let's go." She took the lead to walk out of the gravel road and onto the black mud road.
