Chapter 53: Dead End
He actually ran to a dead end. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Without hesitation, he turned around, ready to change directions and run again, but in a moment, he froze in place.
The ghost with black hole eyes was not far in front of him, and the vague outline seemed to dissipate at any moment.
There was no way out, but Shi Yuan did not feel hopeless.
There's still a chance, and since Cher can be resurrected again and again, then of course I can too.
The ghost of the black hole eye moved towards him suddenly, did not move far and disappeared, and suddenly appeared closer to him, the figure seemed to be hit by an electric current with a kind of jumping and blurring change, Shi Yuan knew that that was the way it moved.
Shi Yuan looked at the gray-white figure nervously, the cold sweat on his forehead continued to flow, and his whole body became cold, the kind of cold far exceeded the level that he should have when he was nervous on weekdays, and he even heard the sound of ice flowers shattering. Shi Yuan looked down in surprise, and he saw that the water vapor on his arms had condensed into frost, and it was still thickening, becoming a solid layer of ice. He gasped and subconsciously slammed his arms into the ground, trying to smash the ice on his arms.
The ice shattered under the force, but the skin underneath was not exposed, as the skin crumbled along with it. A heart-piercing pain came from his arms, and Shi Yuan couldn't help but want to shout, but he didn't shout after all.
A wizened hand plunged into his chest at such a rapid speed that it pierced his heart, and Shi Yuan's consciousness didn't even keep up with the speed of all this before it dissipated into the boundless darkness.
The bell rang again, and at that moment, Shi Yuan's consciousness was still stuck on the pain coming from his arm, and he almost let out a painful scream, but he stopped alive.
The pain disappeared without a trace, and he sat down in the car as he did every hour when the clock struck.
"Ah, Brother Shi Yuan, what is the voice?"
Tu Xue'er's voice was the same as always, but it wasn't the only voice Shi Yuan heard.
The sound of Royasen's heavy breathing came from his left side, but it quickly stopped. Shi Yuan turned his head to look and saw a stunned face, he knew that that face showed the appearance of Luo Yasen when he was chased by that ghost before.
"What did you go through in the end?" Shi Yuan asked Luo Yasen.
Royasen wiped his forehead, even though there was no sweat on it.
"Just now, I've been being chased by that ghost, I'm running desperately, but I can feel that ghost getting closer and closer to me. I also glanced back in the middle, and it was the ghost we saw in the first twenty-four hours who had become Gu Xinfeng. You can imagine my fears, and here I am. ”
Shi Yuan understood that the reason why Luo Yasen still retained the expression when he ran away was because the ghost killed Luo Yasen too quickly, and he was afraid that Luo Yasen would die before he realized it.
The phone rings again, and a new text message appears on their respective phone screens, this time with four words.
"It's a pity."
Shi Yuan suddenly relaxed, and he understood that his inference was correct.
"Luo Yasen, drive the car out a little more and drive to a place where you can directly see the gate of Xinyao Pharmacy."
Royasen did as he was told. This time, they didn't get out of the car. Through the car window, Shi Yuan saw that there were only three clerks who changed shifts this time, which meant that this was their last chance.
When midnight arrives again, there will be no recurrence.
Shi Yuan thought.
In fact, they have another chance. The timeline was only back on track when there were only two staff members left at Xinyao Pharmacy, and that was the last chance, not now. Shi Yuan had also considered this, but he didn't want to put his hope at the last moment.
"It's okay to go anywhere by car, but be sure to stay away from all mission locations, as far away as possible, as long as it's within the boundaries of Gravel."
Mission locations are very scattered, and the only way to stay away from all mission locations is to choose the northwest corner or easternmost point. Royasson turned to the right and the car headed towards the northwest corner.
Shi Yuan's heart did not let go of this, he knew very well that it was entirely possible for a ghost to appear in the car, but now, weighing all the factors, staying in the car for the time being was the best choice. He looked behind him, and the black-eyed ghost was standing not far behind the car, the outline of his body changing like an electric current, disappearing, appearing, moving in the direction of the car.
"Hurry up!" Shi Yuan shouted suddenly, and at the same time, his eyes never left the back window.
In Shi Yuan's field of vision, the ghost was finally gradually thrown away.
Can you conclude that the ghost can't keep up with the speed of the car? Shi Yuan didn't think so, but there was no better way to do it now.
"Cher, Royasen, for the next twenty-four hours, we will try not to get out of the car, let alone talk to anyone, until we have to. In order to survive, today, we have to stay here all the time, not eating, drinking, and trying not to talk. I knew that getting out of the car wouldn't necessarily go against Jibu's request, but we couldn't take any more risks. I hope you can believe me. This time, I think, we're going to make it. You don't need to promise me, as long as you hear what I say. Shi Yuan said.
No one answered.
Everything was going according to Shi Yuan's plan.
Arriving at the northwest corner of Gravel Town, Rowsin turned off the car. He deliberately found a desolate no-man's land and stayed here quietly.
Shi Yuan had never felt that time was passing so slowly. The torment of pain tormented him, and he fell into a deep sleep several times, always waking up from nightmares. He felt physically and mentally exhausted, but he didn't dare to relax, he didn't know if the ghost really wouldn't find here, so he could only keep tensing his nerves, vigilant for the appearance of abnormal aura.
Twenty-four hours walked slowly to the extreme. Without the interference of Shi Yuan and others, Gu Xinfeng and the five of them searched all the way to the location marked with numbers on the treasure map, but in the end they did not find the treasure.
They still died one by one, no different from the first time.
For Shi Yuan, the last few minutes were particularly difficult. He looked back and saw that Tu Xue'er was still asleep, and Luo Yasen on the left was also full of fatigue. He brace himself and check the time.
At eleven :59, Shi Yuan felt as if his heart was hitting his ribs hard, as if he was about to jump out.
The movement of the second hand seemed to him so slow.
Finally, the second hand was only thirty degrees away from the hour hand.
In Shi Yuan's ears, the sound of the second hand moving was extremely clear, and the sound was even louder than ever, and every movement was knocking on his heart.
Zero o'clock, finally arrived.
The bell rang again.
