Chapter 10: Dead Man's Alley
Ye Dou's cultivation was a full two days, and on the second night, he slowly opened his eyes and withdrew from the cultivation state, then got up and put on his T-shirt and shoes and went out.
There's no way, I'm so hungry, I have to eat some supper to make up for it, otherwise I won't have the strength to cultivate.
He learned from the supermarket girl opposite that there is an old street about three kilometers away from Shin Shin Hotel, where many night food stalls are open, and there are a few very good tastes, and there are many people who go to eat.
Today is the 15th, the night of the full moon.
Bathed in the moonlight, Ye Dou came to the old street that was brightly lit and filled with the fragrance of food.
There are at least 30 food stalls and barbecue stalls in this old street, and the flow of people is not small, and it looks bustling and crowded.
I haven't eaten meat for a long time, Ye Dou planned to find a barbecue stall to eat meat to satisfy his hunger, only to find that the barbecue stall was full of people, and there were almost no vacant seats.
After a few moments, he finally found an inconspicuous barbecue stand at the end of the old street at the corner.
Just as he was about to walk over to rub a barbecue and open meat, he heard a bicycle bell behind him, and he had to make way for the bicycle behind him.
When he turned around, he found that the barbecue stall had already been closed, and the stall owner had walked into another alley with the grill on his shoulder.
Ye Dou frowned slightly, feeling strange.
He just turned around, and the other party couldn't clean up the huge booth in an instant like the Flash, this action was incredibly fast.
Driven by curiosity, he took three steps and two steps, and followed the other into the alley.
"En???"
As soon as he entered the alley, Ye Dou's footsteps immediately stopped.
Because, this alley is a dead end at all!
The stall owner carrying the barbecue grill disappeared without a trace.
Ye Dou'er listened to the six directions, his eyes looked in all directions, and the muscles of his whole body tensed.
He cautiously stepped into the alley, carefully examining the dark alley, not sparing a single bit.
The length of the alley corridor is less than ten meters, in which the scene is unobstructed, at the end of the alley is a closed large wooden door, the wooden door is mottled, the red paint is almost gone, there are some traces of wood decay, and many wooden boxes are stacked at the door, which covers most of the wooden door that cannot tell the age.
In addition, the mottled wooden door was hung with four locks and chains of various kinds, three of which had been rusted to death.
"It's impossible for the other party to open this door in a short period of time, and there is nothing unusual about the walls here, where did the stall owner go?"
Ye Dou narrowed his eyes and recalled, making sure that he was not mistaken, the stall owner who was carrying the grill and holding an empty bucket just now had obviously entered this alley, and this would definitely not be wrong.
He turned to look at an old man sitting on a recliner at the entrance of the alley.
The old man, dressed in a white vest and large trousers, and holding an old pu fan, looked plain in the dim light, and should be a nearby resident.
"Old man, can I ask you something?"
Ye Dou smiled and stepped forward, very polite.
"What do you want to ask, young man?"
The old man with a spotted face was calm and relaxed, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked very easy to speak.
"Old man, did a person carrying a barbecue grill walk into this alley just now?"
Ye Dou asked.
The old man frowned, as if recalling: "I don't see anyone carrying a barbecue grill, this alley has always been a dead end, how can anyone go in?"
"Didn't see that?"
Ye Dou narrowed his eyes, suspecting that the old man was lying or that his old eyes were dizzy.
But looking at the other party's expression, it shouldn't be lying.
"Young man, I'm not lying, it's deserted around, there's not even a figure, how can anyone enter this alley?"
The old man pointed to the shadow beside him: "If you don't believe it, ask Lao Li, he is sitting here with me." ”
Looking in the direction pointed by the old man, Ye Dou found that there was another gray-haired old man in the dark beside the old man, who was lying on a mat.
I didn't expect that my ears and eyes were psychic, and I could almost see things in the dark, but I didn't even notice this old man in the shadows.
"No one passes by, no one but you. ”
"Yes, yes, there is no one on this street at all, and it is strange that you have to say that you see people entering this alley of dead people. ”
"Why didn't I see anyone in Dead Man's Alley?"
"Young man, you must be dazzled. ”
The two old men looked at me and said to themselves.
Dead Man's Alley?
"There's no one on the street, so why is this alley called Dead Man's Alley......
Ye Dou glanced at the alley on the right, the smile on his face disappeared, and he turned around and wanted to ask the two old men why, but his voice stopped abruptly.
Because the two old men were all gone, the reclining chairs and mats all disappeared, and the surroundings became deserted and empty.
The lively barbecue stalls dozens of meters away are in stark contrast to the alleys.
One is cold and gloomy, the other is bustling, as if they are two worlds.
How is this possible?
You must know that Ye Dou's ear power and eyesight after experiencing the I Ching are extraordinary, and the slightest sound around him will be noticed.
And he just turned his head to look at the alley, and the two big living people disappeared from under his nose, and the two of them didn't even make a sound of movement.
A gust of wind with a cold breath blew from the alley called Dead Man's Alley, Ye Dou shivered, and found that the alley had become deep and terrifying, deep and unknown, like a black giant mouth that devoured life.
There is also a faint smell of fishy smell in the cold wind, which makes people feel sick and groggy, and want to close their eyes and sleep.
Sensing that his state was abnormal, Ye Dou subconsciously operated the Pure Yang Boy Gong to resist the cold wind, and only then did he have a little more energy, but the Pure Yang Boy Gong was running very slowly, much slower than usual.
He brace himself and take a slightly heavy step towards the lively food stalls.
Da Da Da ......
There was silence all around, a world of only gray and black, only the sound of his footsteps echoing around him.
The closer he got to the lively food stalls, the faster his Pure Yang Boy Gong worked, and a warmth finally emerged from his body.
Airplanes!
Suddenly, the cold and dark black and white picture shattered, and a noise mixed with warm air filled the air, and everything in front of me came to life, bright and rich.
People drinking beer and eating skewers were loud, some were punching, some were slapping the table, some were laughing, and some were gulping skewers.
Behind him, a cyclist rang the bell, urging him to give way immediately.
Everything is back to normal.
Looking back at the Dead Man's Alley, there were a few more lighted shops and some pedestrians around the Dead Man's Alley, which was very different from the dark and cold before.
Ye Dou got goosebumps all over his body.
What the hell just happened?
Why do you feel like you're almost planted in that alley?
Wrong!
There must be something wrong with that alley just now.
Looking at the entrance of the seemingly unremarkable alley, Ye Dou gasped, he was no longer in the mood to eat any barbecue, and left the old street quickly.
After entering the Shin Shin Hotel, Ye Dou breathed a sigh of relief.
The weather was hot, but he was in a cold sweat.
No way, what just happened is so weird, the evil sect can't be described in words, it's very similar to the legendary ghost hitting the wall, and it doesn't seem to be very like.
Lao Wang, the innkeeper who was sitting at the door, saw Ye Dou and said hello: "Ye Dou, the master I invited will come soon, and when the time comes, you will see how the real master subdues demons and exorcises demons." ”
Hehe!
Boss Wang, you can be happy, why are you involved with me?
