48. Cornfield with Mill
With this shout, the torches in the direction of the overturned vehicle shook, and the sturdy men who had knocked down the driver began to curse and walk towards the cornfield.
"Grab him and give him to Gruskin."
"Eradicate these filthy outsiders."
"Satan is God's enemy."
They held the torches high above their heads, increasing the illumination range of the light, and spread them out in a fan-shape, advancing little by little in the direction of Bai Ye's location, and searching in a carpet style.
"I seem to have only one direction to go."
And now he can only run away from these people, if he naively wants to communicate with them, he will end up like the driver.
"I wonder what will happen to Ding Ri? Is it just to end the game and leave? ”
There are a large number of people on the other side, and rescuing Ding Ri or something in the past is simply an act of self-defeat.
Poor Ding Ri was arrested as soon as he entered the game.
In the face of this gang of vicious gangsters, he is not expected to encounter anything good in the future.
"Let's get out of the way of these searchers."
Bai Ye turned around, bent his waist, and walked in the direction away from the searcher with the help of the cover of the corn stalk......
In the sky, dark clouds obscured the moonlight.
The cornfields are pitch black, and the visibility does not exceed two meters.
Bai Ye turned on the night shooting function on the DV camera and held the DV camera in front of him.
His gaze was focused on the DV's small screen, through which the world was dyed a dull shade of green.
"It's this disgusting perspective again."
This kind of night shooting angle can only allow Bai Ye to see the surrounding range of five or six meters clearly, but it can adjust the focal length on the DV camera to magnify things in the distance.
There is also a battery display in the upper right corner of the DV screen, which will continue to lose power when you turn on night shooting.
In this cornfield, even if he gained the night vision function, because of the obstruction of those tall corn stalks, Bai Ye's vision could not see the farther distance at all.
He had no choice but to go all the way.
In order to save power, he had to turn off the night shooting function of the DV camera again, and ran away with a shallow foot.
After a while, he finally got out of the cornfield.
"No way?"
The edge of the cornfield was roadless, blocked by a row of tall barbed wire.
The searchers behind him were still in hot pursuit, and the light of those torches was less than twenty meters away from Bai Ye.
"Should I be like Ding Ri...... Caught by them first? ”
Bai Ye was a little skeptical that his escape trip was an extra move.
"I've seen you!"
"He's in front, this outsider is in front!"
The searcher behind him shouted when he was still far away.
"You can see me from so far away?!"
Not only is the eyesight of these chasers better than the players', but does it also come with night vision?
"It's better not to get caught by them."
The tension is starting to creep in, and the heartbeat is slowly accelerating......
Bai Ye leaned his back against the barbed wire fence and looked left and right.
“?”
He vaguely saw a tall silhouette of a black shadow standing a few dozen meters away on the left, like a building.
"Let's take a look."
He had no other choice, so he cut into an 'active stance' and rushed in that direction.
……
Sure enough, there are buildings on the left.
It was a windmill, a two-story structure, built right at the junction, in a cornfield on one side and outside the barbed wire fence on the other.
Bai Ye approached the mill, and he could hear the 'bang-la-la' sound of the waterwheel in the mill turning.
But......
Just as he reached out and touched the mill gate, the mill gate didn't move, and a 'locked' prompt popped up in front of him.
"Uh......"
Didn't you escape from here?
The torch light was moving in this direction, and the sound of rubbing corn leaves and swearing grew louder, and the searchers behind them had gathered towards the mill.
Bai Ye had no way out except to slam the door.
"There should be a clue."
He hurriedly switched to a contemplative posture and carefully examined the surroundings of the mill gate.
"Huh?!"
As he approached a window to the right of the door, a faint glow appeared on the window.
This is a phenomenon peculiar to players who discover clues to solve puzzles while intent.
He hurriedly reached out to touch the window, and found that the window could only be pushed up from the bottom, and although the opening was not large, it was just enough for Bai Ye to get in.
- Careful observation allows you to find clues to escape, and the concentration posture proficiency is +20.
After successfully drilling into the mill, it was pitch black inside, and you couldn't see your fingers.
A pungent smell of decay wafted through the air.
Bai Ye raised the DV camera again and turned on the night shooting function.
Looking at the green screen on the screen, he saw a giant waterwheel in the middle of the house, making a 'bang' sound.
There was also a table next to the watermill, on which lay a few pieces of rotten meat with flies flying.
"Go inside, he might have hid in the mill."
At that moment, the shouts of searchers were heard outside the mill, and the light of the flickering torches was approaching.
Bai Ye hurriedly switched to a cautious posture, and hid under the window edge.
This is a blind spot, and it is safest to hide in this position if the other party does not enter the house to search.
The searcher soon approached the mill, and Bai Ye heard quite a few people walking up the wooden steps outside the mill door.
Click!
Someone pushed the mill door twice, but it was not possible to enter.
Then someone leaned over to the window and peered through the window.
Bai Ye was glad that he casually closed the window after entering the house through the window, otherwise it was likely that searchers would find traces of entering the house.
And judging from the range of light from the torches shining into the house, except for this blind spot under the windowsill, it is possible for people to hide in other places in the mill to be seen by outsiders.
"He's not in there."
The man looking through the window turned back to report to the others.
"Maybe it's hidden in a corner out there."
A guy who sounded like a leader said angrily, "You stay here and guard, and we will continue to search." ”
Then there was the sound of footsteps descending the steps, and the light of the torches faded away.
"Whew~ Escaped."
Bai Ye leaned against the wall with his back and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
- You have successfully dodged danger, gain +50 Cautious Stance Mastery.
……
When the footsteps were gone, he peeked out from under the window to look out.
Only one searcher was left outside, standing on guard with a torch less than five meters from the mill.
Bai Ye acted in the mill, as long as he didn't make a loud noise and create a striking light, he shouldn't be seen by the other party.
He continued to use the night vision on the DV to find a way through the mill to the other side of the barbed wire.
"Huh?!"
He soon discovered that behind the rotating waterwheel, there was a drain the size of a dog's hole.
"That should be the escape exit."
However, the rotating waterwheel was in front of the drain.
If Bai Ye wanted to get out of the drain, he had to stop the waterwheel first.
