Qu Ember stopped and looked at the people around him.

To make sure he was not mistaken, he even looked behind him.

I saw the man holding a briefcase on the phone, the old man walking with each other, and the bouncing children, who were also looking at him.

The smiles on the faces of these people are so weird, they don't look like they are looking at a normal person at all.

"Miss."

At this moment, he looked at a young woman walking past him, and while saying hello, he grabbed the other party's wrist directly.

Qu Ember took the opportunity to use the mind-reading mantra and turned on the system's identification function.

In his mind, the first voice that came to him was the voice that the system gave the identification results: [Human women who have not yet given birth. Risk factor: low】

Qu Ember was a little dissatisfied with the identification results, because the results were normal, but this woman was also looking at him, and her eyes were very strange.

In addition to opening the identification of the system, he also used the mind-reading spell, and at this time he also had insight into the other party's inner thoughts.

"This man is so handsome!"

"Damn, he took my hand."

"Offered to say hello to me."

"Are you going to pick up a conversation?"

"Is the affair coming! How do I answer to show that I am reserved? ”

"He's going to ask for my phone and then he's going to go on a date with me."

"If you marry him, the child's name will be Bocong."

This woman's inner thoughts are very rich, and her brain turns very quickly, and many thoughts are born.

But these thoughts are all too normal, and they are not what Qu Ember needs. Or rather, not what he imagined.

"You didn't zip up."

Qu Ember reminded the other party, and then let go of his hand.

Hearing his words, the young woman was stunned, then looked down at her jeans.

I saw that she was embarrassed, and then immediately trotted forward.

She also unzipped up her jeans as she ran.

However, when she looked back at Qu Ember from time to time, the expression on her face, and the eyes that looked at Qu Ember, were still the same as just now.

Qu Shen looked at the people around him again, the young woman just now, whether it was the identification results given by his system, or the thoughts he read the other party with the mind reading spell, the other party was quite normal.

Could it be that this time, the system can't give an accurate answer?

Qu Shen had this idea in his heart.

After all, the people around him, although they were doing their own things physically, looked normal, but the expressions of everyone looking at him were strange and weird, and the fool could see that there was something wrong.

He seriously doubted that he might really be from the New World.

Thinking like this, he looked at the oncoming family of three.

In addition to a pair of young parents, the woman was holding a baby who looked like she was only a year old.

Not only the parents, but the baby's expression when he looked at Qu Ember was also the same as the people around him.

"The kids are so cute."

As the other man walked by, he gently pinched the baby's face.

"Huh! Why do you just touch people? ”

The young mother was clearly angry and wary.

The young and strong father also walked up and pushed Qu Ember hard, "Take your hand away." ”

Anyone who sees a strange man touching his child's face is probably very vigilant and guarded.

But after he pushed Qu Ember hard, he found that Qu Ember didn't move at all, and it felt like he was pushing on a mountain.

This made him immediately withdraw his hand and pull his wife away quickly.

Qu Ember doesn't seem to be easy to provoke, so it's safer for this kind of person to stay away.

But even so, the expressions on their faces remained the same when they left, and when they "communicated" with Qu Ember just now.

Looking at the two people who were far away, Qu Ember recalled the appraisal results he had just gotten.

[Human infants. Risk factor: None]

As for the idea in the baby's head, it was very simple, and that was the curiosity of everything in this world.

Something that is brightly colored, something that is strangely shaped, or something that makes a sound.

He was very curious about everything.

Although Qu Ember doesn't remember the memories of when he was a baby, he speculated that the baby's thinking should be normal.

But when he was hugged and left by his parents, when the other party looked at him, the strange expression on his face didn't let Qu Ember feel like this.

He then tried several more times, identifying different people and using a mind-reading spell.

But the result was the same.

Qu Ember walked all the way forward, his eyes continuing to check the people around him. Even farther away, he found people standing in front of floor-to-ceiling windows in the shops next to the street, and even in the ten-story office buildings.

From experience, these people's expressions are not the same as the curvature of the corners of their mouths, so they should not be controlled by one person.

When passing by the bus stop, Qu Shen saw several old people waiting for the bus here, who were also looking at him.

So he stopped, stood in front of several people, and asked with a magic spell, "Why are you looking at me?" ”

He consumed a thousand energy points, because it was completely enough to deal with these ordinary people.

After hearing his words, the group of old men and women with gray hair, some carrying vegetables, some on crutches, and old men and women wearing black earmuffs, answered him one after another:

"Because you're so handsome."

"My daughter and grandson don't have a boyfriend yet, and they're about the same age as you, so I think you're quite suitable."

"You've grown so tall, what did you eat to grow up."

"Today's young people, why do they wear so little in winter, isn't it cold?"

Every old man and old lady has a place to pay attention to him, and from these people, these concerns are extremely normal.

This made Qu Shen even more vigilant, not knowing what was going on in front of him.

As he continued to walk along, he asked some other people and found that the reasons why these people were paying attention to him were normal.

The expression can be spoken, and everything is normal.

Since this is the case, then Qu Shen can only continue to walk, these people like to watch him, so they can watch it casually.

He took out his phone, and after unlocking it, the page was still stuck on the dark web.

This time he re-typed three words on the search engine: "Door Starter"

Click on the search, and a lot of information will pop up containing the entry of the doorman.

Qu Ember ignored the gazes of the people around him and began to browse down.

After watching it for ten minutes, he put his phone down and walked again.

He wondered why there were Kaimen, and there were only five, and why he wanted them to open the door to a new world.

As a result, the term "Enlightener" was born after a small number of people in their world realized that there might be a new world.

This also represents the desire of the people of this world to open the door to a new world.

And to open up a new world, of course, you need someone to open the door.

The reason why there are five people who open the door is not that it was proposed by a certain person or a certain group of people.

It is according to all indications that it takes five people to open the door to the new world.

These "signs" are also evidence of the existence of a new world.

Including the hints that popped up on the page, the bookmarks in some important collections in the library, which I don't know who placed them, and the legends of the older generation, all clearly indicate that there were five Kaimen.

Not only that, but there are also some extremely special abilities, such as Qu Zhen, who can see the future under special conditions, and the "speculation" of people like the soothsayer in the black house, which also indicates that five people are needed.

In other words, there is no actual basis for the assertion that it takes five people to open the door to a new world, and it is all shown through various "signs".

But if these signs can be faked, because they are artificial, but from some historical murals and secret texts that have been passed down by the church for many years, we can also see that it takes five people to open the door to the new world, and it cannot be artificial.

At least it can't be faked by modern people.

After checking and checking, whether it was the New World or the Kaimen, it was just some kind of "rumor", which made Qu Ember extremely disappointed.

He was about to quit the dark web, when he suddenly saw that someone had replied to his last message.

The last time he took a photo of the text on the back of a silver coin, he posted it on the dark web to see if anyone knew what the words on the coin meant.

I saw that he clicked on the other party's reply.

"The words on the silver coin mean: Death in the realm of eternal life."

The Dead Realm ...... Can live forever......

Qu Ember pondered the meaning of these words, and then remembered the death cross on his chest.

At this moment, a second message appeared on the other side.

"It's a sacrificial object, and this silver coin is the currency of the undead's trade, so something ominous will happen to anyone who holds the silver coin."

Seeing this, Qu Yan was a little skeptical.

Because since the other party mentioned the words "Death Realm", he thought of his death cross, and knew that this person was definitely not talking nonsense, but really knew something.

But he had not only a silver coin but also a gold coin in his hand, but nothing had happened to him, so he was a little suspicious.

Of course, to prove whether what the other party said is true, in fact, he only needs to test it.

Just when Qu Ember was thinking about whether to ask the other party what the death cross was, this person seemed to be very enthusiastic and immediately helped him answer his doubts.

I saw that the other party sent a picture from a photographed ancient book.

The picture above is a cross, and the exact size of this cross is not visible because there is no reference.

But Qu Ember found that this thing was very similar to the death cross around his neck.

At the same time, the other party also attached a message, "This cross is the highest ritual vessel of the sacrificial ceremony, called the death cross." If this thing is present, it will not only eliminate the ominous nature of silver coins, but it will even be able to trade with the undead with silver coins. ”

"Making a deal with the undead......

Qu Ember felt that this kind of thing was getting more and more mysterious.

And the other party was not finished, at this time another message was sent: "It is best to wear the silver coin on your body at all times, because the undead can feel its breath and find it for it." ”

After seeing the other party's words, Qu Yan's pupils shrank slightly.

Then he didn't think about it, and instantly sped up.

He even used energy body tentacles to pull him away.

At this time, it was evening, it was already dark, and Qu Ember was running in the night, attracting the attention of many people.

And when these people observed him, the expressions on their faces were the same as when those people looked at him just now, they all looked a little weird.

But this time, there is still a trace of doubt and incomprehension in the weirdness.

I don't seem to understand why Qu Yan, who was fine a second ago, suddenly sped up at this time.

As he raced towards the hotel, Qu Ember also discovered a little more, as he kept meeting new people.

The initial expressions of these people were quite normal, some were chatting with the people next to them expressionlessly, some were laughing and talking on the phone, and some were humming songs.

But when they saw him, their expressions all changed, and they all looked at him with a smirk.

Qu Ember had a feeling that these people were infected by some kind of weird smile.

If this "weird smile" had a shape, it must be huge, enveloping him and the people around him.

So when the people around him were infected, they all smiled when they looked at him.

As he sped up now, he gradually broke free from the massive "weird smile" and the infected people.

If you continue like this, you will definitely be able to break free from the shroud of a weird smile.

Sure enough, when he galloped for several kilometers, everyone around him finally became normal, and no one would look at him with that weird smile.

Qu Ember glanced behind him, then turned around and continued to speed up.

Before, he wondered if these people with strange smiles would have something to do with the new world.

Now it seems that the probability that he thinks it has something to do with the "undead" that the person on the dark web calls is greater.

After a while, he finally rushed out of the hotel.

After the impact is gone, I go straight to the elevator entrance.

I saw Qu Yan's chest rise and fall, and his breathing was slightly short.

Sitting in the elevator, he saw through the slowly closing elevator door that everyone outside was looking at him, and his expression was still a little puzzled.

If they hadn't all known Qu Ember and knew that he was a person with special abilities, someone would have come to stop him a long time ago.

When the elevator finally reached the top floor, and after opening the door with a clang, Qu Ember rushed out again.

The moment you swipe your card into the door of the room, the light turns on automatically.

I saw Qu Ember quickly looking around.

However, the whole room was quiet, and nothing unusual seemed to happen.

Qu Ember walked towards his backpack and unzipped the outside

"Hoo ......"

When he saw the two gold and silver coins, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he picked up the gold and silver coins and examined them in his hands.

Finding nothing out of the ordinary, he looked into the room again.

The room was quiet and the warm lighting gave it a very comfortable feeling.

Looking out the window, there is the bustling city of Venus.

The streets and buildings are brightly lit.

Qu Ember picked up his phone again, and then he saw the other party's message.

"With a death cross, one can communicate with the dead on an equal footing, because this sacrificial utensic utensil is regarded as a symbol of friendship by the dead. And in the same way, this sacrificial ritual vessel is also an evil holy weapon that surpasses ordinary people. As long as you control this thing, you can control the life and death of most people. ”

Seeing this, Qu Ember included a few words below the message: "How to control it?" ”

But after thinking about it, he deleted it again. Because the other party is obviously fishing, if he really asks, it is equivalent to telling the other party that he has a death cross in his hand.

So he changed the question, "What is an undead?" ”

He sent messages anonymously, and everyone's replies were only visible to him, not to each other.

didn't wait long, the other party replied to him, "You can understand it as mutated consciousness, or unwilling resentment." ”

"Isn't it amazing?"

"Yes."

Qu Ember thought for a moment and then asked, "How do you know?" ”

"If I answer your question, can you come back to my question?"

"It depends on the mood."

The other party was not angry at Qu Ash's perfunctory, but said: "Because my family has been dealing with the undead all year round, and in addition, we have been looking for the death cross all these years. ”

Seeing this, Qu Shen secretly said that the other party was honest, and most of the questions he wanted to ask were whether he had a death cross.

Sure enough, I only heard the other party say: "You have a silver coin in your hand that can be traded with the undead, you should have seen the death cross." ”

"Nope."

Qu Ember lied.

Then he felt it carefully, and found that the lie value really did not increase, and the other party obviously did not believe it.

So he went on to ask, "Where do the undead exist?" ”

"They can be everywhere."

After getting the answer, Qu Ember continued to type: "Do they make a group of people look at you at the same time and show a weird smile." ”

"It should ...... Yes. ”

The other party also seems to be unsure.

"If you don't have a death cross, you should throw the silver coins away, because this thing is ominous and will attract the undead."

"Okay." Qu Ember replied.

"If you want, I can exchange that thing with you, whatever you need to open up directly, maybe I can give it to you."

Qu Ember smiled, he had nothing to love now, he didn't need anything.

So he replied to the other party: "No need, I'll keep it useful." ”

The other party was afraid that Qu Ember would "go offline", and the news came immediately: "Then you have to be careful, the undead like to hide in the water." ”

Seeing the other party's words, Qu Yan just picked up the red wine glass and shook it, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

He looked down at the red wine in his glass, viscous, bright red, like blood.

And through the reflection on the surface of the red wine, he also sees himself.

At this moment, in the reflection, he grinned and showed a smile full of evil.

"This ......"

Qu Ember was taken aback.

Was it really said by the other party? The undead hiding in red wine?

He looked at the evil smiling face in the cup and didn't say anything for a long time.

However, holding the wine glass, he turned on the identification function of the system.

[Evil undead. Risk factor: None]

The appraisal result was obviously unexpected, because the other party's risk factor turned out to be "none".

It soon occurred to Qu Ember that it was most likely because he was wearing a death cross.

Silence wasn't an option, so he broke the silence.

"Ahem......"

I heard him cough lightly twice, and then said, "Hello." ”

Hearing his words, the evil undead in the cup actually spoke: "Hello sir! ”

Listen to the voice, this is a middle-aged man.

"May I ask who you are?"

Qu Ember asked knowingly, but his tone was very gentle.

"I just felt the temptation of money and bothered my husband."

"Do you mean that......"

As he spoke, Qu Ember took out a silver coin, and then flicked his fingers and made a clanging sound.

The silver coin bounced off his thumb, and as it flipped in mid-air, its surface glowed with white silver.

The undead in the wine glass, his gaze followed the flying silver coin upwards and then down with the silver coin.

Under his watchful eye, the coin eventually fell back into Ember's hand, and was constantly turned between his fingers.

This trick is still practiced when he is bored, spinning coins to pass the time.

"Yes, I like money."

The other party's gaze kept on the silver coin that was rolling between his fingers, and he did not hide the greed in his eyes, and even licked his lips.

Qu Ember asked with a smile, "So for you, you should also be willing to do something for me, right?" ”

"Very willing to serve Mr."

As he spoke, the other party lowered his head, as if he had performed a high-level etiquette.
