292. Wandering Soul Street
In a daze, Ye Xiao heard frightened cries and chaotic footsteps around him.
Then, he noticed that someone was dragging his body hard.
He dragged for a while, and then stopped until his back hit a hard spot.
"Hey, wake up, wake up, wake up......"
Someone shook his body, then slapped him in the face, and then dripped cold tap water on his forehead.
Ye Xiao opened his eyes suddenly, and after his scattered gaze was focused, he saw the face of the man in front of him who woke him up.
The man looked to be in his thirties, with a big shiny bald head, a short goatee on his chin, and deep lines at the corners of his eyes.
He was wearing a black T-shirt on the upper body, a pair of jeans on the lower body, and casual leather shoes on his feet.
They are now in a small alley, in a hidden corner on the back of a garbage can.
"Whew~ You're finally awake."
Seeing Ye Xiao wake up, the bald man let out a long breath, and his nervous expression relaxed.
"You saved me? You are? ”
has lived in this area for three or four years, and the surrounding neighbors Ye Xiao basically recognize it, but the person in front of him is a half-baked face, which does not belong to this area, but subconsciously feels as if he has seen it somewhere.
"It doesn't matter who I am, you just need to know that I saved you."
The bald man smiled at Ye Xiao, then turned around and groped towards the side exit of the alley, lying at the entrance of the alley and looking outside.
From time to time, some people would scream and run away from the alley, as if some terrifying monster was chasing them behind them.
After looking at it twice, the bald man ran back with a cat on his waist and said nervously, "It's not safe here, we have to move to a safer place." ”
"What the hell is going on? I remember when I was surrounded by those people? ”
Ye Xiao still couldn't understand what had happened from just now to now? If it was indeed this bald man who rescued him when he was trampled and attacked by a group of out-of-control pedestrians just now, then he could trust this person for a while.
"There's no time to explain now, just remember, don't believe what you see and everything you hear here......"
When the bald man said this, a black crow with a purple-black light shimmered in the narrow sky above the alley flew by.
That's not ...... Is the spirit crow summoned by the skill 'Raven Minions'?
"Not good! We've been spotted by it, let's go! ”
The bald man was immediately alarmed, leaned down to slung the frail night owl on his shoulder, and ran towards the exit at the other end of the alley.
Odd?
I couldn't even cut through the attribute interface just now, and I couldn't use skills?
Ye Xiao also guessed that if he had now entered this seemingly pre-timed world by default, then he still had the two active skills of 'mastering the sprint burst' and 'mastering the thief's intuition'.
However, now there are no skill options popping up in the lower right corner of the line of sight, and none of the props and equipment that were originally placed on the Survivor character are gone.
But if this is not the virtual world in the game, what about the appearance of a killer-exclusive skill in the sky?!
The appearance of this crow made everything seem a little messy......
Thinking about it in such a chaotic way, the bald man had already helped Ye Xiao out of the alley, he stopped at the mouth of the alley, looked left and right, and seemed to not know which direction to go.
"Go to my house, it's in front of the happy community."
Ye Xiao had no choice but to point to the back door of the community not far away, now the small street was in chaos, everyone was running around like headless flies, and there was nothing frightening in sight.
"Ah~ it's coming, it's coming, I know it's nearby!"
Ye Xiao also saw the landlord Uncle Zhang holding his head with his hands in despair, and shouted in a hysterical voice while running towards the end of the side street.
"Let's go, then."
The bald man gritted his teeth, and ran towards the iron gate at the back door of the happy community with Ye Xiao on his feet.
After crossing the iron gate and passing the potholed cement road in the community, the two went up the dark stairs with broken corridor lights to the third floor, and finally stopped in front of Ye Xiao's rental room.
Ye Xiao took out the key and opened the door, and after entering, the bald man locked the door, and then leaned his back against the door, exhaling heavily, and the whole person relaxed.
……
"It's safe for now."
After adjusting his breathing, the bald man walked to the window again to look at the situation outside, and then he relieved himself and showed a wry smile to Ye Xiao.
Then he began to look around Ye Xiao's hut, and when his eyes finally stayed on the platinum-level gaming helmet on the writing desk, his eyes seemed to light slightly.
"Who the hell are you? I feel like I've seen you somewhere? ”
Ye Xiao sat down on his single bed, observed the bald man in front of him, and asked the question again.
"Have you forgotten? We used to play a game together, and it's this game called Nightfall. ”
The bald man pointed to the platinum-level helmet and continued to prompt: "It's in the scene of 'Crystal Lake', my ID name is 'Lao Tuo' of Shaking M, do you still have an impression?" ”
As soon as the other party said this, Ye Xiao's mind immediately sprung up with many memories of the game of 'Crystal Lake'.
In that game, there was indeed a Survivor player with an ID called 'Lao Tuo of Shaking M', and he and two other IDs were called 'Lao Yan who drank fake wine' and 'Lao Cha who was flirtatious' to form a 'bald team'.
Lao Tuo was in charge of the 'path-finding' mission in the 'bald team', and at that time, he was wearing a miner's hat on his head, by the way, he also gave Ye Xiao and others a 'cigarette' that could slightly improve the reconnaissance attributes......
"It turned out to be you...... How did you end up in this place? ”
It stands to reason that this bald man named Lao Tuo should belong to the world after the crossing, he didn't know everything before Ye Xiao crossed over, and it seemed particularly unreasonable to appear here.
Ye Xiao still remembered that in that game, Lao Tuo was finally on the island in the middle of the crystal lake, and Jason, who was teleported here, was killed with a knife, and he happened to be present at the time, and finally because he triggered the second soul fragment of the Dark Hunter Sovey, he was able to save his life in the hands of the murderous Jason and fused the soul of the Dark Hunter......
"Oh? So according to your understanding, what do you think this place is? ”
Lao Tuo's face showed nostalgia, and gently stroked Ye Xiao's platinum-level helmet with his hand, and asked without answering.
"I ......"
Ye Xiao was asked, a little unsure of how to answer, if he told Lao Tuo the truth, then he would have to talk about the situation of his crossing, talk about this with a player who is not very familiar with him, let's not say whether the other party will believe his words for the time being, Ye Xiao himself does not want his secret to be known by too many people (the exception of the sleepless night).
"This may seem like the place you remember, but it's just a familiar shell, I told you, don't believe what you see in your eyes and what you hear in your ears."
Lao Tuo didn't embarrass Ye Xiao too much, but continued to explain: "Because this is a place where the dead should come, this is Wandering Soul Street!" ”
