Chapter Seventy-Two: It's Getting Dark

"Hey, there's a convenience store in front, it looks pretty shabby", the fat man said directly at this time: "Brothers, let's go down and buy something, get some beer and drinks, the location name marked on the map mountain is Hilton Vacation Home, although we are not here to travel, but let's get everything that should be done." β€œ

"Dead fat, do you really think you're going on vacation? Go see what the convenience store has all the necessities we need, I just found a wallet here, there are no other documents in the wallet, but there are some dollars, enough to buy something. β€œ

"Done. β€œ

The fat man pulled over the car next to the convenience store and got out of the car.

Yi Gu also got out of the car, and seeing that Su Bai was still sitting in the car and didn't get down, he asked a little puzzled:

"What's wrong?"

"I'll be out there to monitor the situation. β€œ

"This plot has just begun, what's going on. Yi Gu was a little inexplicable, but he didn't delve into it, just nodded, "Okay, you just watch the car here, and the fat man and I go in to buy something." β€œ

Yigu and the fat man walked into the convenience store, Su Bai lowered his head slightly, he was thinking, what should he do, whether to follow the previous model, or directly start to do the main quest 1, right now, Su Bai has not many clues in his hands, that black-haired woman, Su Bai does not know her true identity, Sofia is still with her companion at this time, and she should not have officially entered the mission.

However, in fact, there is another very important reason why Su Bai continued to stay in the car and did not choose to enter the convenience store to buy things like last time.

That's the poster!

Su Bai remembered that the phone call between the fat man and Yigu was like this at that time, and the fat man asked Yigu why there was a poster behind our car, and Yigu replied that it was too unlucky, so tear it up.

This time, before getting into the car, Su Bai personally went to the back of the car to confirm that there was no poster.

That also means that the last time someone went to the convenience store for the three of them, they secretly came over and put up a poster of "Death is coming".

Su Bai didn't know if the other party had been paying attention to this place in the dark, and he didn't know if the other party would stop coming to post posters because he found out that he hadn't entered the convenience store, but Su Bai didn't have any other clues on hand now, so he could only expect to rely on grasping clues from other aspects to bring out the clues he wanted to know.

After all, since the requirement of the main quest 1 is to find the source of the river, most of the things and clues in this story world that affect your audience should have something to do with that source.

He lowered his head and was silent, but Su Bai's consciousness had always maintained a high degree of vigilance;

Suddenly, a very subtle "salsa" sound came.

Su Bai immediately pushed open the car door and ran to the back of the car.

At this time, a flying knife shot directly at Su Bai in an arc.

Su Bai immediately lowered his head, and the flying knife swept over Su Bai's head and stabbed into the ground.

At this moment, a figure immediately jumped out of the car and ran in the other direction.

Su Bai didn't hesitate to catch up, the other party's figure was not very clear, it should be something to conceal the figure, which made it look a little blurry from behind, and he couldn't even tell whether it was a man or a woman, but fortunately, the other party's speed was not very fast, and Su Bai slowly shortened the distance between himself and the other party during the chase.

The two of them quickly ran into the forest, and finally, the other party seemed to feel that there was no way to avoid Su Bai's pursuit if they ran like this, so they turned around directly, two cold rays flashed in their hands, and they should have pulled out two more daggers, and turned to Su Bai.

Until now, Su Bai has not confirmed whether the other party is an audience or a native of this forest, but when the other party got close, Su Bai finally understood who he had met, his snort let out all kinds of snorts, and then his body began to become thin, and the whole person almost completely turned into a dry corpse, this change is very fast, almost something that is completed in an instant.

"Sonorous!"

"Sonorous!"

The two daggers were cut on Su Bai's arms, making the sound of weapons colliding, because the outer layer of Su Bai's skin condensed a layer of coldness, and the other party's dagger did not cut Su Bai's skin at all.

At this time, Su Bai's wrists with both hands quickly turned, and he grabbed the opponent's dagger in reverse, and then pushed his arms hard, the other party obviously did not dare to make direct contact with Su Bai's cold hand, so he directly let go of his hand, gave up his weapon, and took a step back.

Su Bai did not continue the pursuit, and the other party did not choose to run away again.

"Haha, do you know who I am?" a crisp female voice sounded, and then, the other party's originally vague figure finally became clear, it was the long-haired girl, the girl who was the first to cross the river.

"I can't see your body, but I still remember the scent of you. β€œ

The girl's face flushed, she took a bite of Su Bai, and then said: "I just wanted to come to you, at the beginning of the story, because I was still short of helpers, Sofia had already helped me last time, but in the end something went wrong and failed, so this time, I want to come to you first, and then find Sophia." β€œ

"Are you here for me?" asked Su Bai.

"Oh, I know you're guessing something, I came across this thing when I first arrived. β€œ

A stone sculpture appeared in the girl's hand, and a very ugly demon image was painted in the stone carving, and then in the demon's hand, a roll of posters was pasted, the girl laughed twice, and threw the stone sculpture and the poster on the stone carving's hand directly to Su Bai.

Su Bai received it in his hand, the demon was carved and cast from ordinary stone carvings, it should have been a long time, but he could feel that there were still residual energy fluctuations on the stone carvings, and then, Su Bai unfolded the poster on the demon's hand, and sure enough, it was the movie promotional poster of "Death is coming".

"Actually, from the very beginning, there was a force that prevented us from completing the task, or rather, there was a force wrestling with the power of horror broadcasting, but the other party was for self-preservation, and horror broadcasting, probably just because they wanted the so-called story to be better and more interesting, so they went with the flow. After all, in the story, I don't think there will be a level of energy that can counter horror broadcasting. β€œ

Su Bai threw the stone carving on the ground, and the poster was gently torn, and then said:

"I'm going to go with you now?"

"We only have the time before dawn the next day, so time is short. β€œ

"I have two companions, and if I leave like this, they'll find out that something is wrong. β€œ

"What's wrong with that?"

"I think there will be problems. β€œ

"Sticking to the old ways, what a rigid person, do you know that next time, it is very likely that someone else will come to that river, and then cross the river and squeeze out your place. β€œ

"And then?"

"And then, the next time you think you're the beginning of this time, but I won't come to you, because my goal has been changed, and I've reached several collaborations with others, and you're already in the past, but you don't know anything about yourself, and you think that next time, next time, it's still your time, you're complacent, you think you're the first few people who ate crabs, but you've long been outdated. β€œ

Su Bai smiled and didn't answer, just turned around and left silently.

The girl stood in place, looking at Su Bai's back, pouting and sulking.

――――――

"Ah Bai, you know how to be lazy. The fat man put everything in the back compartment, and then got into the car, "Shouldn't it be that a talent like me should be the most lazy and lazy?"

"Alright, let's go. Yi Gu said.

The fat man nodded, started the car and continued to follow the map.

Su Bai sat quietly in his position, smoking a cigarette, shaking the cigarette ash out of the window from time to time, whether it was the fat man or Yigu, he didn't tell himself the strange things he encountered in the convenience store, such as the dozen or so young Western men and women he saw, such as the very strange black boss.

Su Bai understood that this was a manifestation of the other party's exclusion from the small group of the two of them, and the most basic thing was that it was manifested in the details of a tacit agreement that information refused to be shared.

When they arrived at the Hilton vacation house, the fat man and Yi Gu complained that the broken wooden house really didn't match the name, Su Bai silently picked up the things and went into the house first, and then pretended to be tidying up things, in fact, last time, the fat man and Yi Gu entered the cabin one after another, and Su Bai went to the river, Su Bai was sure that he must have missed something, otherwise Yi Gu and the fat man would not deliberately separate themselves after that, the moment the turning point of the horror broadcast plot occurred, the cabin exploded and collapsed, which was not an accident。

After the fat man and Yigu also entered the house, Su Bai walked to a corner of the living room, and in his hand, he silently held a glass lens and placed it on the windowsill, pretending to look at the scenery outside while actually paying attention to the fat man and Yigu.

Sure enough, after the fat man came in, his face first showed a look of surprise, obviously he found something, and then, he glanced at Su Bai, and saw that Su Bai was far away from them, so he walked to Yigu's side, pretending to take a beer, and bent down to say a few words in Yigu's ear.

His eyes lit up suddenly, and then he stood up, glanced at Su Bai casually, and then looked at the house again, and then nodded.

"It's getting dark. Su Bai, who had been lying by the window and watching the scenery, said.
