It seemed to be annotating Lu Ran's words, and as soon as his words fell, the ground suddenly shook more and more, and even a crack cracked on the ground.

Lu Ran hugged a strong tree.

The tremors of the earth, the broken trees, and the fleeing birds were in chaos.

The old man pulled his throat and replied, "Yes, that's right. ”

Lu Ran couldn't help but laugh, "Didn't you say you came to help me?

The old man pulled his throat again: "Of course not. I'm here to help you out. ”

"The world is spinning, how can there be a way out?"

"You don't have to worry about that. You remember, if you want to get out, you have to rescue his father before eight o'clock. His father, on the third floor. ”

Then, Lu Ran felt that his shoulder was pushed violently, and his whole body was weightless, and he fell backwards.

It's over, it doesn't hurt to death now.

This was the only thought that flashed before Lu Ran fell to the ground.

Thump......

Lu Ran fell.

The moment he touched the ground, he continued to fall!

Behind his back, there was no pain from a sharp object such as a stone, but rather as if he was leaning against something soft.

But he was still falling, and soon, his eyes, nose, and mouth were violently poured in with a liquid that rushed into his mouth, into his nose.

He choked on a large sip of water.

It turned out to have fallen into the water!

Lu Ran reacted at this time, began to hold his breath, and swam in the water.

He didn't have time to think about it, he had to swim to the surface first, or he would have drowned if he stayed a little longer.

Call......

Drilling out of the water, Lu Ran spit out a mouthful of water.

"It's so salty. ”

Where is this?

Lu Ran's head and half of his shoulders came out of the water, and his hands and feet swam in the water.

He looked up into the distance and saw that there was no earth, no woods, and no old men.

There are only blue skies, white clouds and an endless ocean.

"I'm in the sea?"

Lu Ran was at a loss and had no direction.

"The old man is gone. Lu Ran remembered what happened in the woods just now, and the last thing the old man said before disappearing was to let him find Huang Rui's father.

"Yes, I remember, he told me to rescue his father before eight o'clock, or I'll die in this illusion!"

But Lu Ran still didn't have any clue, this place was calm and sunny, and it didn't seem like it was twilight close to night.

Could it be mistaken, am I already out, I'm already awake?

Lu Ran was in a trance.

"I'd better swim ashore first. ”

But where is the shore? This whole vast sea, with no end in sight.

Lu Ran blindly swam around for a while, his body gradually depleted, he stopped, and there was some despair.

He wanted to talk to people, but he was alone.

He suddenly remembered the mobile phone he was carrying, oh no, after being soaked in water for so long, the phone must have been scrapped.

He swam to keep his upper body floating on the water, and rummaged through his coat pocket with one hand, trying to feel if his phone was still inside.

When his hand touched a thin cuboid object, he immediately took it out of the water, and when he took it to his eyes, he saw that the screen had completely stopped, and nothing was displayed.

"Hey, my warm baby. ”

Lu Ran subconsciously pressed the power button again, although he knew that it was useless to struggle to the death.

When he wanted to give up, the screen lit up.

"A miracle has happened!" Lu Ran felt incredulous.

However, a line of words gradually appeared on the screen, not his desktop background and icons.

That line of words was a string of flashing numbers, white on a black background.

19:36。

"This ...... It's like time. Lu Ran thought about this time for a while, and he immediately froze.

He picked up his phone again and looked at it.

19:37。

Time is ticking.

It's a countdown, and it's infinitely approaching that number, 20:00.

Lu Ran didn't dare to think about it anymore.

He felt like he had been poured cold water from his head, and he suddenly came to his senses.

He understood that he had not come out of this illusion, on the contrary, everything that the old man had said to him had come true. This phone is no longer a phone, and it would be more appropriate to say that it is a time bomb. It records how much time Lu Ran has left to save himself!

At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and almost instantly, a bright moon hung in the sky, but the sky was not completely dark.

The time came at 19:40.

It's only twenty minutes.

Lu Ran vaguely saw that there was a very tall thing towering over the sea not far away.

What was that, he swam in that direction.

"Is that a piece of land?" Lu Ran had never seen such a strange island in the sea, a lonely piece of land, with a small surface and only one house on it.

Yes, it's a house.

Now that Lu Ran was only a few dozen meters away from the island, he stopped.

Lu Ran felt familiar, the outer wall of this house was like the yellow mud wall he had seen during the day.

"Looks like I'm finally on the front of it. ”

The hut was much taller and larger than he had seen during the day, and it had two high windows, not like it was only one floor.

"His father is on the third floor......" At this time, Lu Ran remembered the last words that the old man said to him.

This must be the place.

But as he continued to swim forward, trying to get closer to the shore, his heart was shocked.

From afar, he saw that in front of the door of the house, there were many people standing, walking back and forth, like a patrol team, like the security guards of the house, all dressed in black and holding a sharp knife in their hands!

"Men in Black......"

They reappeared.

The house appears to be heavily guarded.

"I'm still a step late, I don't know where Huang Rui's father is now, has he been accused by them?"

Lu Ran didn't dare to act rashly, it was obviously unwise to break in now, they each had a short knife, even if they couldn't kill themselves with a single knife, but if they attacked them in groups, it would be easy to stab themselves half to death.

"I can't die. You have to think about it. ”

Although time was pressing, Lu Ran was not a flustered person, and his thoughts turned quickly.

"Now, this illusion is still there, and these black-clothed people still exist, which means that Huang Rui has not woken up yet, and he is still in a hypnotic state. ”

"What is the purpose of these men in black?" Lu Ran carefully sorted out the relationship between the front and back, "Huang Rui made it very clear that they wanted to find his father and kill him. ”

Huang Rui's idea came from his father's experience of being brutalized by a group of gangsters dressed in black, which deeply stimulated Huang Rui's heart, and Huang Rui later gradually became insane and couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, which was related to this experience.

If in Huang Rui's heart, the purpose of these men in black is to kill his father, then if the man in black has already accused his father at this time, or even killed his father, then the purpose of the man in black has been achieved, and Lu Ran's mission to rescue Huang's father failed, and Huang Rui should wake up from the nightmare.

However, now, the wind and waves are calm, and although the danger is lurking, his mission to rescue Huang's father is obviously not completed yet, and he has not failed!

One qiē is not over yet.
