The sky was dark, dark clouds kept moving in the sky, the full moon was faint and faint, and the air was filled with the smell of rain.

A road that is not too dark, but because there are two lampposts emitting a faint light, you can barely see the short section, and there are black plastic bags of different sizes on the walls on both sides, even if they are knotted, it is difficult to hide the stench emitted inside, and when you look at it, you can see that this is a street where few people pass by, and garbage is placed.

The sound of fast footsteps echoed through the street, and a man of modest stature ran quickly through the dimly lit street. Halfway through the run, he suddenly picked up speed, and after about thirty seconds, he stopped his movements, stretched out his hands and groped for the darkness in front of him, if anyone saw him now, they would think he was blind. With the help of the faint light, the darkness in front of him was dispelled, he groped for the wall, he ran into a dead end, and then he turned around, and a relatively handsome face looked warily ahead, as if he was about to face a fierce beast in a fight.

"Is there no way out? Looks like you're going to die here. A playful voice came from the front.

But the man still didn't say a word, looking at each other with a wary face, until the other party showed a watermelon knife, and approached step by step, although the man was still vigilant on his face, but the continuous retreat of his feet and the horror in his eyes had betrayed his heart, and he was afraid. By the time he was forced to retreat to the corner, he was already sitting on the ground, completely unaware of the foul smell of leftovers from the garbage bag on his pants, and his delicate face was no longer vigilant, but replaced by horror and despair. The knife fell, and an arc of silver light flashed

"Ah", Chen Yan sat up from the bed suddenly, his face was still a little frightened, his pajamas were already soaked with sweat, his breathing was a little short, he adjusted his breathing slightly, stretched out his right hand to turn on the lamp on the counter, picked up his mobile phone and looked, now the time is five fifty-eight, it is nearly six o'clock, although Chen Yan's work time is half past seven, he can sleep a little longer, but he doesn't want to sleep anymore. He plans to go out for some exercise, not only to strengthen his body, but also to have better air in the morning. After thinking about it, he got out of bed, got dressed, and went to the bathroom lightly, the reason why he was light was because his friend was still sleeping, and others worked long hours and didn't want to wake him.

Three years ago, Chen Yan took his resume, various diplomas, certificates, came to this unfamiliar city, entered a state-owned enterprise to work, after three years of hard work and struggle, coupled with a more intelligent mind, made a small department manager, earned a little money, bought a set of good commercial buildings outside, and had time with friends, colleagues, eating, drinking tea, fishing, exercising, and living a fairly freehand life. But slowly he felt that he lived alone in such a big house, a little empty, he wanted to be lively, once asked a friend, how about living with colleagues, but not with his girlfriend or with his parents. So, I had no choice but to go online and post the news of the shared house. It reads as follows:

Male, have a stable income, neat and clean, will not bring back a lot of people, do not smoke, do not drink, do not disturb others after 10 o'clock in the evening, and pay half of all expenses after sharing a house. If you want to share a house, please contact Mr. Chen

After waiting for a day, someone finally looked for him, a young man named Gao Wei, who was twenty-four or five years old like Chen Yan, with the face of a student, and after getting along for a while, he felt that Gao Wei also met his requirements for co-living, and he had a good personality, and the two got along for a long time, and they became friends. However, it is approaching the end of the year, and the New Year is approaching, the workload has become larger, there is nothing to do in the first few days, and the quality of sleep is better.

However, today I don't know what happened, he had the same nightmare three or four times a night, dreaming that he was being hunted and killed, according to his character, he would not offend people, and the person who chased him in the dream, he could not see his face clearly at all. So he blamed this on the increased workload and poor sleep quality, although he thought it was a psychological effect.

He turned on the faucet, filled the washbasin with water, and completely immersed his face in cold water, as if this practice could make him sober up a little, but this was also his habit, after raising his head, he wiped his face with a hand towel, and then began to wash, returned to his room to change into sportswear and went out for morning exercise.

Chen Yan lives in the community air is relatively fresh, the environment is elegant, go downstairs, after the automatic door opens, you can see a belt of green plants, red, green flowers and plants, run to the right hand, all the way to see a stone chair placed there, and under the big tree in front, there are stone chairs and stone tables, look carefully, the stone table is neatly drawn a line, it seems to be very regular, obviously, this is a stone table printed with Chinese chess, you will see a small bridge when you run all the time, and there is a small pavilion standing in the distance about fifty meters away from the small bridge, For people to rest. Chen Yan didn't plan to rest, he ran all the way through the small pavilion, kept running, and when he ran to the back of the crossroads, he ran to the right, and saw some old people about fifty or sixty years old practicing Tai Chi, wielding swords and swords.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Gao Wei eating breakfast, and there was a bowl of white porridge and a few breads on the dining table, and the white porridge was still steaming, exuding a faint porridge fragrance. Gao Wei turned his head, smiled at Chen Yan, and said, "Are you back?" I've made breakfast, let's eat it. ”

Chen Yan nodded, smiled at him, took a shower and walked over, sat down, and began to eat breakfast, the reason why Chen Yan lived with Gao Wei was not only that he met his requirements for a shared apartment, but also that he was better and could talk very well, so their relationship was better, after eating, when he saw that the time was already seven o'clock, he had to sigh that time had passed so quickly unconsciously, stood up, and said to Gao Wei: "I'll go to work first, please wash this bowl, I'm sorry." ”

And Gao Wei didn't say anything, just nodded, and Chen Yan smiled apologetically, turned around and walked quickly to the room, not that Chen Yan was lazy, but that he was really in a hurry, office workers like Chen Yan should hurry up and take the bus, and it should be earlier, otherwise it may be congested if you catch the bus, fortunately, after the bus stop goes out of the community, turn right ten meters to arrive, with such an idea, Chen Yan quickly put on his clothes, took his work bag, and ran out after saying hello to Gao Wei.

After going out of the door, he ran directly to the elevator, but the elevator happened to open at this time, Chen Yan slowed down, and met a person about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a black coat and a peaked cap, because he pressed his head very low, and his hands were in the pockets of his coat, so he couldn't see his face at all, motionless, like a sculpture, Chen Yan felt strange, although the weather is relatively cold now, but he will not dress so exaggeratedly, because the person in front of him doesn't know whether he is bigger or wears more clothes, It looked like a zongzi, and with this strange thought, Chen Yan walked into the elevator. In the elevator, Chen Yan felt that the temperature was relatively low, normally speaking, the temperature in the elevator would not be so low, now it was not outside, I felt that the temperature had dropped, Chen Yan pulled his collar up, curious about what the people around him were doing, so he squinted at the man in black, at this time the man in black seemed to feel that Chen Yan was looking at him and turned his head to look over, the man in black turned his head like a puppet stiff, because Chen Yan was about the same height as the man in black, when Chen Yan saw the face of the man in black, his pupils gradually contracted, The bag in his hand fell to the ground and he didn't know it, his mouth was even more open enough to stuff an egg, beads of sweat began to appear on his face, his eyes showed fear, he raised his hand tremblingly, pointed at the man in black and was speechless in surprise, and the man in black just looked at him, the shadow under the cap revealed the cruel smile of the man in black, and he took out a watermelon knife from his arms, raised it high, and prepared to swing the knife.

Chen Yan didn't know why, he wanted to resist, but his body just didn't obey the call, watching the knife ready to swing down, the inexplicable anger in his heart, with all his strength, he bit the tip of his tongue violently, and was about to resist, when an unscientific scene appeared in front of him, a burst of black smoke turned into a man in black dissipated, Chen Yan stood in place dumbfounded, what is this, am I the hell? Am I dreaming? Why does this man in black look so much like him? He had a few questions in his mind, but no one gave him answers.

Chen Yan walked out of the elevator in shock, closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and began to walk while calming down, thinking about what happened today, who is the man in black? Is it really him? Why did he kill me? Why did he suddenly dissipate into a puff of black smoke? Could it be that he is a man with mana? Thinking of this, Chen Yan shook his head violently, this is too exaggerated, how can there be such a person in the real world. Walking with a full stomach full of suspicions, Chen Yan fell and fell to the ground, he didn't notice the situation in front of him because he kept looking down and thinking, after he rubbed his feet, he saw that it was a corpse that made him fall just now, Chen Yan stepped back in horror, looked at the corpse in front of him, panicked to the point of not knowing what to do, in front of him was a male corpse, there was a deep wound on his chest, it was obviously a fatal knife, I don't know who was so cruel, Chen Yan stood up with trembling feet, and was about to call the police, when a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, no, Such a big person here is dead, so obvious, why no one comes, why is it so quiet? These thoughts flashed in an instant, Chen Yan turned around violently, and the scene in front of him made him breathe hard, and he was extremely frightened

I don't know when the original day has turned into a gloomy night, the sky hangs with a bright moon like a scythe of death, it seems to be laughing at Chen Yan's timidity, any car outside the community has been stopped, due to the limited light, there is no one outside, and where Chen Yan is standing, there are corpses all around, blood is flowing like a river, some corpses have broken arms and stumps, each corpse's expression is different, there is panic, there is despair, there is unwillingness, there is dazed, Chen Yan's brain at this time has been pasted, what is going on, Why did so many people die at once, he also pinched his face hard idiotically, it hurts!

It's true!

After taking a few deep breaths, he was about to run out of the community, the corpse next to Chen Yan suddenly stood up tremblingly, as if he would fall down at any time, his original unwilling expression turned into murderous, his arms were raised, and he walked towards Chen Yan at a turtle-like speed.

At this time, there was no one on the street, Chen Yan couldn't think so much, and ran directly to the police station, although it was not very far, but it was a distance from the community, fortunately, Chen Yan usually had the habit of exercising, so as not to run two steps and lose breath, while running, he was also thinking about the problem, why the sky suddenly turned into night, there was no one on the street, where did they go, why did the people in the community become zombie-like people, these thoughts flashed. In the face of this environment, it is not afraid of fake, whoever is changed, will panic, but Chen Yan is different, from the moment he ran to the gate of the community, the thrilling mood has disappeared, replaced by a sense of adventure, feeling like playing a game, and some excitement.

Chen Yan's brain is very clear, he knows that he will definitely panic in this situation, but for some reason, after leaving the gate of the community, he is not so nervous, and it seems that he feels that this is an adventure game, but he doesn't care, no matter what, the ultimate goal is to solve the current problem and then figure out what happened.

Halfway through the run, he saw a large truck transporting gasoline with its door ajar, and Chen Yan immediately sat inside. I wanted to drive a car, but I had no choice but to close the doors of many cars, and I couldn't open it at all. The corpses that were still walking at a turtle speed stopped at this time, and after five seconds, those corpses moved again, and the speed was very different from before, and they flew forward like arrows, and Chen Yan didn't know it.

Halfway through the drive, Chen Yan saw from the rearview mirror that the zombies were running at a speed like driving a small car, and Chen Yan accelerated violently at this time, ran to the rear trunk, opened the lid of each barrel of gasoline, and then walked back to the front seat, took the lighter in the front seat in his hand, opened the car door, and implemented this plan, which can be said to be very crazy, and he will blow himself to pieces if he is not careful.

When driving to a tourist attraction, the flat road in the middle was originally for the vehicle to move forward, the flower field on both sides was about 200 meters, and it was full of all kinds of flowers, but Chen Yan now had no time to appreciate, seeing that the corpses were catching up, Chen Yan jumped down from the car door at once, at the moment of jumping, Chen Yan threw the lighter in his hand into the rear cargo box, just after completing this action, he fell on the flower ground, kept rolling, because some flowers are thorny, in the process of rolling, clothes, pants are scratched, And Chen Yan was relatively lightly injured because he protected his head with his hands, and those zombies seemed to be unable to see it, so they rushed in directly, knocked over the gasoline inside, and came into contact with the fire source of the lighter.

With a loud bang, the raging fire burned into the sky, and those zombies were burned to "dance" at this time, the expressions on their faces became distorted, and they were soon burned clean, not even a little scum was left, Chen Yan stood up with difficulty, looking at the red light and fire in front of him, he couldn't help but have some guilt in his heart, and in the end, they are all flesh and blood people, they have feelings, and they will feel pain, but the sad thing is that they don't know who they have manipulated and become machines that can only kill. But if you don't kill them, you will die, shook your head, not wanting such nonsense. Looking around, he remembered this tourist attraction, he had been there before and knew where the infirmary was. Just as he was about to walk away, a figure with a knife was reflected on the lamppost behind him, Chen Yan bent down violently, rolled twice on the ground, and then stood up, the person in front of him was not a stranger at all, wide black clothes, wearing a peaked cap, his head was pressed very low, and he was holding a watermelon knife, haunting him in his dreams and wanting to kill him in reality - the man in black.

When Chen Yan saw him at this time, he was obviously at a disadvantage, he didn't even think about it, he ran away, and the man in black also followed him, I don't know if the man in black was deliberate, or Chen Yan ran fast, and he always kept a certain distance from Chen Yan.

I don't know how long I ran, but I ran to a street with only two lampposts, emitting a faint light, and next to it there were many stench garbage streets with black plastic bags emitting from them. Chen Yan ran to the front, saw a big wall, he ran into a dead end, turned around and looked ahead vigilantly, Chen Yan felt that this was simply providence, the dream he had made, in reality, it came true, the man in black also arrived at this time, approaching step by step with a watermelon knife.

"Is there no way out? Looks like you're going to die here. A playful voice came from the front.

Chen Yan will definitely not sit still, when the man in black rushed over, the knife fell, and slashed down towards Chen Yan's face, Chen Yan dodged to avoid it, the knife slashed on the wall, making a crisp sound, and Chen Yan took off the cap of the man in black at the moment of dodging, wanting to see his true face of Lushan, and the man in black turned around at this time.

The dark clouds dispersed, and the bright moonlight shone down, shining on the face of the man in black, Chen Yan couldn't believe that the identity of the man in black turned out to be him, the face of a student, who always kept smiling, now became gloomy, and the smile became hideous. And the person in front of him rushed over, when the knife was about to chop down, Chen Yan dodged violently, there was a lesson from the last time, the man in black slashed sideways, the sharpness of the watermelon knife cut Chen Yan's arm with a deep wound, the man in black rushed over again, Chen Yan reluctantly swept the man in black down with a sweeping leg, did not give the man in black a counterattack pressed his body with his knees, snatched his watermelon knife with his hand, wiped his throat, warm blood sprayed on Chen Yan's face, and with his cold expression, he looked like a cold-blooded killer.

Chen Yan stood up slowly, the watermelon knife had fallen to the ground, his cold eyes slowly turned into grief at this time, and when he was about to speak, an emotionless man's voice came from his mind:

"Chen Yan, who wears the phantom wood necklace, completes the illusion mirror task, hunts twenty-four people, and obtains the qualification to enter the fifth-level hunting house in the hunting city of six hunting towns, and is entering."

The red light flashed, Chen Yan disappeared immediately, about ten seconds later, the corpse on the ground was gone, the fire that was still burning outside also disappeared out of thin air, the sky returned to its original day, and the pedestrians on the street slowly emerged, and everything returned to its original state.
