Gloomy clouds covered the sky, no rain was falling, and the air was dreary.

The gray dark mountain forest was as silent as death.

In the backyard of the Arowana view, Lu Li ushered in a guest.

Dressed in casual clothes with short sleeves, slippers under his feet, and sighing for his unkempt stubble, if you ignore the eye droppings in the corners of his eyes, this middle-aged man may look very free and casual.

The trial is over, and the metaphysical exchange meeting continues. In a Taoist temple full of Taoist monks, it is strange to see a normal person dressed in ordinary clothes.

Standing behind the door, Lu Li quietly stared at the middle-aged man outside the door for a few seconds, and said, "It's you." ”

"You know me?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows slightly.

"You were the one who observed me in the Tang River that night."

The middle-aged man did not deny or refuse, and looked at Lu Li with a strange gaze: "Are you so keen?" ”

"I usually remember things that are impressive."

"It's worthy of being a detective, this observation and memory are first-class, but it's a pity that ......" He didn't say the latter words, and he didn't need to say them, because everyone understands.

"You're not here to express regret." Lu Li put the phone back in his pocket and raised his eyes and asked.

"Of course not, I'm here to solve all your puzzles." The middle-aged man grinned. "Let me introduce myself, my name is Da Liu, a member of the scavenger organization."

They had been observing Lu Li, from the moment Lu Li appeared near the sewers.

So when Lu Li appeared at the exchange meeting, they found him.

Lu Li didn't answer, just took a step to the side and made room.

Da Liu walked into the guest room with this smile, his eyes lingered on the neat bedding for a moment, and Lu Li's inquiry sounded behind him.

"Tell me what the door is."

"Don't be in such a hurry, the door is a long explanation—"

"I'm patient." Lu Li interrupted.

He returned to his still warm chair and sat down, the door unclosed, the dimly lit room brightened by the light from the outside.

"Okay, the main thing is that the flat and straight narrative will make the door look unconventional, and I wanted to talk about some other horror paradoxes that set off going out first."

"I've seen the horror of the door, so I'll just say it."

"As you wish...... We don't know when the gate appeared, but the scavenger organization is scattered all over the place, but it has only been established for a short time. The past information is also unknown...... You also know that anyone who touches the door will be found by the door and ......"

Da Liu paused, avoiding Lu Li's mood swings and didn't continue.

He glanced at Lu Li, who looked calmly at the mountains and forests outside the door, and continued: "I don't know what you think of the door, but you must have underestimated it. It's far more than you think...... Be horrible. There are too many horrors. ”

"Internally, we call the gate cancer cells. Not only because you touch it will be found by the door, but also because the word cancer is very applicable to the door. ”

"What does it mean to touch it and it will be discovered by the door." Lu Li guessed something, but still asked.

Da Liu glanced at Lu Li meaningfully: "It's what you think, so that's why I said it's extremely terrifying." ”

"It's like an evil god staring at us all in the void. All factors involved in it may be perceived by it. For example, seeing the diary of a survivor coming out of the door, seeing any video footage of the door, overhearing the murmuring coming from inside the door, or even talking too much about the door, as long as you are exposed to information related to the door...... People with poor willpower will be affected when they come into contact with these. If you are lucky enough to cultivate for a while or go crazy, if you are as unlucky as you, there is only one dead end left. ”

"So it's not just touching the door that you can be noticed." Noticing Lu Li's gaze, Da Liu smiled bitterly: "I can say the door unscrupulously because...... I've been targeted by the door, just like you. ”

"That's one of the reasons why we are so taboo about the door and feel powerless that we call it cancer cells. Its behavior is disorderly and malicious. Any rational speculation is useless for it, and these can pull themselves into the abyss. At the same time, the high contagion makes it difficult for us to retain any information...... After all, the person who sees the information may be noticed by the door and may go crazy. ”

Da Liu spread his hands: "So we can only act secretly, without any inheritance, and it looks like a plate of loose sand." ”

"Can we attack it?"

"It's a very novel question, and most people are asking how to survive." Da Liu laughed: "The answer is no." They are different from everything we know. After all, if the teacher didn't teach us to read a diary, we could go crazy, right? ”

Lu Li remembered the diary of the water ghost. He thought that the water ghost just wanted to keep a diary, and it felt strange to keep a diary even though he was dead...... But now it seems that its purpose is not simple. The diary of the Reveal Gate was also intentionally written.

Putting away his thoughts, Lu Li found a little factor in Da Liu's words: "They? ”

"There is more than one door." Da Liu replied.

"That's another factor we call cancer cells...... "Da Liu exhaled a long breath, his smile disappeared, and he said in a tone full of despair, "It will spread." ”

"Like a cancer cell that has spread, the gate spreads outward. If the resulting door is not disposed of as soon as possible, it will occupy outwards after a certain hidden condition is met, scattering a second door. ”

Lu Li was quiet for a few seconds: "In other words, this door in Pingling City is one of several doors. ”

"Yes." Da Liu opened his mouth with a hoarse and bitter smile: "You know how terrifying the enemy we are facing. ”

"Can the door be broken, or the perimeter of the door?" Lu Li put forward a conjecture, but it was of little significance. Someone in the scavenger organization must have proposed and acted on it...... And the current situation speaks for itself.

"Of course I tried, including physically, and then after the people who did it died mysteriously, no one did."

"And how did you stop the door?" Lu Li asked, remembering the bloodstains he had seen on the wall next to the door of the underground passage.

"Let the members enter the door and resolve the crisis behind the door. This is the only way to solve the door. It's difficult, and you see the results. The door of the Tang River sewer alone was a month of scorching for a month, and dozens of people were thrown in. So far, none of them have come out alive, and the door is still there. ”

"Behind the door...... What's there. ”

Da Liu was silent for a long time, and shook his head lightly: "I can't say it, and I can't listen to it." ”

"Even if it's already noticed by the door?"

"Even if it's already noticed by the door."

Lu Li kept quiet, digesting all the information that Da Liu revealed.

"How many people are there in the scavenger organization?"

Da Liu replied: "I don't know, there is a crucial rule in the organization: the more you know, the faster you die." The more you touch the door, the more you can experience that indescribable fear. And that brings me to the second point: what a scavenger is. ”
