"Dididi~~~"

A bus drove slowly on National Highway 106 in City A, and Li Xiaoxuan sat in the back seat, with a black leather bag on his legs, which contained less than 300 yuan and a resident ID card.

Xiao Xuan flipped his ID card to the back, and he found that the man on the card was himself. Sure enough, Happy Valley will definitely not let him carry out the task penniless, and will inevitably solve the problem of identity and money, so he is not too surprised at this time.

But this money is a little less, and it is less than 300 yuan!

Wow, could it be the economic downturn? Even Dianniang's full attendance is 600 yuan, which is less than half of the full attendance. Li Xiaoxuan couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Complaining is complaining, and Xiaoxuan can be down in business. He immediately took out the "Miracle Medical Backpack" he had found in his newbie pack from the storage space of his watch and equipped it. The surrounding passengers ignored his move as he pulled the medical kit out of the storage compartment as if it were all a matter of course.

Li Xiaoxuan had clicked on the [Storage Space] and [Personal Attributes] menus before, and now he decided to hurry up and take a look at the rest of the menus.

First of all, he clicked on the [Mainline/Side Quest] column and found that it was divided into two columns, namely the main quest and the side quest. The main quest is the quest that "survived 3 days", while the side quest says "not yet".

It seems that if you have forgotten some information about the main quest, you can check it here at any time.

He clicked on the [Contact List] and [Battle Information Record] columns in turn, and found that they also showed "Not Available", but there was a gray option of "Add Friends" in the contact list, but his hand clicked on it and it showed "Not Available Yet", it seems that this function of adding friends is also turned off for the time being.

With a hint of anticipation, Li Xiaoxuan clicked on the bottom menu [Rating and Skills]. The first column of the score shows "not yet", but when the skill column below the rating bar is clicked in, it is evenly divided into eight pieces, two of which say "Meditation Lv2" and "Prayer Lv2", and the remaining six are blank.

There are also a few hints below the skill bar:

"Note: Visitor 10156 currently has a maximum of 8 skills. Current Skill Slots Remaining: 6"

"Tip: Click on the skill you want to learn about to get more information about that skill."

There is no doubt that Li Xiaoxuan directly checked the information of the two skills that are currently available:

"Meditation (Basic) Lv2: Increases the speed of mental recovery by 10% and increases the accuracy of skills by 4%.

Description: Increasing this skill level will also make you mentally tougher, more energetic, and more active brain cells.

Prayer (Base) Lv2: Increases Skill Strength by 8% and Cast Skill Speed by 8%

Description: Increasing this skill level will also expand the upper limit of your brain domain, so that your reflection ability and thinking depth will be greatly improved. ”

Li Xiaoxuan was happy when he read it, what brain cell activity, depth of thinking, and what he said around the bush is not to improve intelligence.

While pondering this information, Xiao Xuan looked up at the window:

Outside, there is a large residential area, houses are lined up, many residents are drying clothes on the street in the distance, and there are pools of stagnant water on the side of the road, probably just after a rain. Fresh air mixed with the scent of earth penetrated through the windows. Xiao Xuan sniffed and sniffed pleasantly, feeling refreshed for a while, and the tense nerves were also soothed.

Suddenly, a pair of calloused hands rested on Li Xiaoxuan's shoulders. Xiao Xuan turned his head to see that the person in front of him was not a bystander, but the strong man wearing a miner's hat who was also a novice with him!

He looked at Xiao Xuan with big bronze eyes, and his honest face was full of surprise: "Little brother, you are also in this car, what a coincidence!" As soon as I found you sitting here, I was in the third row in front of me. ”

"Hello, what do you call it, brother?"

"My name is Sun Shengli, hehe, just call me Brother Sun."

"It turned out to be Brother Sun. Fortunately, my name is Li Xiaoxuan. Where is your hometown? My hometown ......"

Sun Shengli simply sat down next to Li Xiaoxuan, and the two had a bad chat in the car.

Xiao Xuan learned that Brother Sun's ancestral home is in Henan, he is a construction worker, and his children are 5 and a half years old. He usually follows the construction team around to catch up with the project, and he doesn't have a rest all year round, so it's easy to take a vacation and get to this ghost place.

"Little brother, what kind of institution do you say this Nightmare Happy Valley is? Its ability is not small, and it has brought us big living people. Sun Shengli said, "There is also the main quest released, which is the same as the computer games I have played." ”

Li Xiaoxuan leaned forward, shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I think things must not be simple." The mission requires you to survive for 3 days, and it will definitely not be calm during this period......"

The two decided to travel together, and they could deal with anything together and take care of each other.

A long time passed, and the bus stopped in a small station. Xiao Xuan, who realized that it was time to get out of the car, hurriedly pushed Sun Shengli, who was napping next to him, and woke him up to get out of the car together. The two of them planned to find a hotel nearby and solve the accommodation problem first.

There are still many hotels around the station, and the two of them wandered around for a while and chose a hotel called "Huiyuan". The appearance of Huiyuan Hotel is very clean, the walls are very white, and it looks extremely neat.

The hotel owner was a dirty and sloppy man, and when Li Xiaoxuan was talking to him, he found a small yellow grease stain on the neckline of his shirt, his hair was messed up into a pot of porridge, and he was weak to speak.

After many fruitless negotiations, Li Xiaoxuan and the others could only reluctantly pay the bill, and then were led by the waiter to a room on the second floor. After giving the room card, the waiter explained some precautions and left.

The room is a standard double room, with a semi-open bathroom and a clean living room in the middle, with two beds and a wall-mounted LCD TV opposite the bed...... Writing desk, air conditioning, closet, although the sparrow is small, the overall arrangement is very warm, worthy of his price of 250 yuan a night.

"Brother, I'll go downstairs to the restaurant to eat a bowl of noodles. Do you want to be together? Sun Shengli touched his stomach and scratched his head embarrassedly.

Li Xiaoxuan looked at his watch and felt uneasy: "I'm not hungry, you go, brother, pay attention to safety, go early and come back early!" ”

"Okay!" After Sun Shengli finished speaking, he pushed the door out and left without looking back.

Only Li Xiaoxuan was left in the room. He sat on the bed for a while, turned on the TV and was just about to tune the channel, when he was attracted by the content of the current channel:

"It is reported that at 8:41 a.m. today, there was a vicious homicide incident in City A. Let's first review the whole process of the incident with a video taken by an eyewitness:

The suspect in the video rushed into a restaurant from the front entrance and went on a rampage with consumers eating breakfast. According to the statistics of the public security department, 19 people were attacked, of whom 17 died on the spot and 2 were seriously injured. ”

"There has just been a breakthrough in this incident, the local police have found the whereabouts of the suspect after careful investigation, and they are currently using a large number of police forces to pursue them. Residents of City A are asked to trust the police, to believe in science, and not to believe the words of so-called 'insiders', thus causing panic.

Mr. Wang Xiaohui, a special expert of this station, will explain to you the objective reasons why the suspect killed 17 people in succession within 3 minutes without using any weapons......"

Li Xiaoxuan looked at it, and suddenly remembered whether this murder incident would be related to the "Nightmare World Theme: Puppet"?

Xiao Xuan touched his chin and watched the video on TV carefully. Although the surveillance captured the suspect's face, the video mosaiced his abdomen and head, leaving the audience with only a thick back and legs, and the scene of the murder was full of mosaics, and only some immersive feelings could be found from the exclamations coming from the video.

40 minutes passed.

Li Xiaoxuan had no clue, he couldn't link this information together to form an effective intelligence.

"Bang Dang~"

Suddenly, a loud bang erupted in the quiet bathroom – the sound of a window cracking!

Li Xiaoxuan shuddered, hurriedly got off the bed, put on his shoes and walked slowly to the bathroom.

Standing in front of the door, Li Xiaoxuan hesitated for a moment, but gritted his teeth and pushed open the bathroom door vigorously.

Something unexpected happened, Li Xiaoxuan actually saw Sun Shengli who went out to eat. He stood by the toilet, leaning sideways, staring blankly at the wall.

"Brother Sun, you... Didn't you go to dinner? How will this window be in the toilet? Li Xiaoxuan bit his lip and said secretly. Even if Sun Shengli didn't bring his room card, he was always in the living room, why did he break the window and come in?

Damn, what the hell, what kind of plane is this guy doing. Xiao Xuan's face was ugly.

Sun Shengli scratched his head and pretended to be honest and said, "Hehe, hehe...... I—I'm back. I...... I'm humming (very) good~"

His voice was hoarse and shut, his throat seemed to be stuffed with a foreign body, and he spoke very slowly, with great difficulty. That Mu Ran's face is even more incompatible with "honest".

"Oh, I see, I'm sorry to bother you. You eat slowly in the toilet. ”

Li Xiaoxuan looked down and almost fell to the ground.

I saw that "Sun Shengli"'s trouser leg was stained with blood, and a big hole was broken in his left shoe, revealing a deformed sole of his foot clinging to a few pieces of blue-black scale armor. His pupils narrowed, and he slowly retreated, trying to slip out of the bathroom quietly.

He didn't mean to expose this imposter in person, because he was afraid that after debunking, the annoyed and angry "Sun Shengli" would attack him directly. Its arms were even thicker than Li Xiaoxuan's calves, and it was clear with his toes that Xiao Xuan was definitely not his opponent.

"Bang Bang~"

When Li Xiaoxuan retreated to the exit of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door in his ears, and then Sun Shengli's unique voice came from the main door: "Big brother, I brought you a bowl of beef noodles, open the door quickly!" ”

"Sun Shengli", who also heard this sentence in the bathroom, became hideous, and his face began to change drastically.

Its eyebrows were squeezed together, its eyeballs were instantly bloodshot, the corners of its mouth were cracked to the back of its head, three rows of sharp teeth like spikes appeared, and the skin on its arms cracked like tree bark, revealing fine scales......

"Sun Shengli" has suddenly turned into a blue-black monster!

"Puff~"

The upheaval in the bathroom was still going on, and Li Xiaoxuan didn't dare to continue watching. He took out the dark blue medicine "adrenaline" in the medical bag, clenched it tightly in his right hand, ready to give himself an injection and run away, and at the same time rushed to the door with his hands and feet.

He flipped out the key card with his left hand and opened the door, and his crotch trembled.

I saw that the brother standing in front of the door was not tall, his body was fat, he was staring at a pair of blood-red eyes, his cheekbones were stained with black blood, and his broad body was slightly bent, showing a strange posture. What's even more creepy is still to come, Xiao Xuan saw that there was a basketball-sized blood hole in his chest!

Obviously, this "weirdo" has nothing to do with Sun Shengli.

Li Xiaoxuan's heart was broken, and the two Sun Shengli encounters in a row are fakes. One is dressed in the skin of Sun Shengli, and the other has the voice of Sun Shengli.

He was so close to the "weirdo" that he could smell the strong smell of blood coming from him. The squirming red viscera in the blood cave was clearly visible, and his stomach twitched again.

"Got you."

The strange man said expressionlessly, his calm and indifferent face trembled for a moment, and then suddenly punched, and the fist wind was directed at Li Xiaoxuan's abdomen in front of him.
