Roads that no one walks, no one maintains, should fall into disrepair all year round, potholes, rugged and difficult to walk.

The path is the opposite. Like the stone path in the park, it is very well maintained.

Walking here, it doesn't feel like the atmosphere of a trail in a desolate area. It's more like a forest park in the middle of the city, quiet in the middle of nowhere.

Bai Ye's mood gradually calmed down.

Maybe it's like what the old man just said. This is the front of a mediocre path, which has not been completed for some unknown reason and is deserted.

There are no weird gatherings nearby.

There is no Blackwater.

It's all just a human imagination.

Listen to the sound of rustling around you, the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves.

It's like being in a forest, and people and nature coexist peacefully, what a wonderful feeling.

The white night strolled down the road, squinting comfortably.

Suddenly, he was stunned, and then he felt cold! Wrong! Where did that feeling come from? That's definitely not your own idea! Bai Ye deeply understood that although he usually behaved with a big grin, he didn't care. There was always a sense of urgency in my heart. This sense of urgency stems from nothing else than the pressure of his own survival.

Johnny Silverhand's life pressured him, letting him know that he could die at any moment, and that his life would be short. His sister put pressure on him to be responsible, telling him that he must persevere for the sake of his loved ones. These are the motivations for him to live. Also, the key to his ability to maintain his mentality all the time.

However, just now, I seemed to be a different person, and I completely forgot those things in the back of my mind!

Just now, he only had peace and indifference in his heart...... Is this possible? I'm here to find life-saving medicine, and my destination is still a very dangerous "weird gathering place", and I don't know what unknown things are waiting for me. How did he feel "wonderful" and "calm" in such a situation? White Night broke out in a cold sweat in his heart.

Something is wrong with this place, so wrong! The unusual thing I just had just now definitely had something to do with this place. Here, I am subtly changing my thinking!

Thinking of this, Bai Ye looked around vigilantly. But I don't know when, the plants that go deep into this place have changed! It's not an ordinary tree at all, but it looks a little eerie. The trees are all a little deformed, and the branches seem to be big hands reaching out to the sky, struggling not to know what to call.

The bark is also an unhealthy dull color. It's like a dead and weathered color. There are also some shrubs. These shrubs grow horizontally and vertically, and the branches cross each other, giving people a chaotic and twisted feeling for some reason. Such a scene will not be felt "natural" or "wonderful" by any normal person!

Bai Ye was vigilant in his heart, and he must be more and more careful in his next actions, and he must not be subtly changed his cognition. The thought in my head just now was a wake-up call. He felt that he should be more wary and resistant to this feeling than anyone else.

After all, the existence of Johnny Silverhand is also a subtle change in cognition. It's very similar to what we're doing here. The white night continued to walk forward, and the deeper he went, the stranger the plants around him became, with all kinds of strange shapes.

Some of the big trees even have what looks like human faces on their trunks. A pair of eyes seemed to be staring at him. Bai Ye went up to check and found that it was nothing more than a natural pattern on a tree. And the so-called eyes are nothing more than scars on the trunk of a tree. No matter what kind of strange-shaped plants are, after careful inspection, they are ordinary plants, but they are too strange-shaped.

Wood, leaves. That's just that. Walking on the road in the white night, there will be a sound of rustling from time to time. The feeling in his heart just now told him that it was the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves. It's a natural sound. But at this time in the ears of the white night. That sound didn't feel right.

The wind blowing through the leaves should not make such a rapid sound, nor should there be a constant change of position. More like something, scurrying around where he couldn't see. White Night has a feeling of being watched. It was as if a pair of eyes were staring at him from behind, exuding malice. Moving on, it even seems that there are malicious gazes everywhere. Staring at him.

Maybe it's behind those trees. Maybe...... Is it the trees themselves? They opened their eyes in a place where they could not see in the white night, but when he observed, they turned into ordinary forms. White Night carefully observes everything around him. When you look closely, everything in the vicinity is perfectly normal. There is no malicious gaze, and there is no peeping. There are no unknown creatures shuttling. It's just an ordinary grove.

Bai Ye opened the data perspective, and suddenly the data torrent flowed in front of his eyes. If it's something done by strange creatures, this kind of data perspective can easily discover their existence. White Nights already has experience. He looked around, but found nothing. There's nothing in the data perspective either, everything works fine.

Weird. Isn't it something that a weird creature did? So where does this weird atmosphere come from? White Night stood still and thought. As he pondered, there was a malicious gaze that sent chills down his spine. At the same time, there was also a sound of shuttling nearby. It seems that a branch has been broken. He looked up and observed, and everything was so calm and normal again. If it were someone else, it would probably have been driven crazy at this time. This kind of feeling of being a soldier is a great test of people's psychology.

Don't look at the danger at the moment, but the imaginary monster is far more terrifying than the actual one. White Night even knows that there are people in Night City who are constantly harassed and end up being cyberpsychotic. How similar to what you see! But the white night is not afraid. His experience is so much and too complicated that this kind of thing is a piece of cake for him.

He's really gone crazy, he's been cyberpsychotic. I have also experienced the torment of hell. Either way, it's not comparable to the small scenes of suspicion now. White Night strode forward. however

Not long ago, he saw a small town appear in front of him! The path leads directly to the stone paved road inside the town. Around the town, there are small buildings with several floors, and there are pedestrians walking on the road, talking and laughing, which is the appearance of an ordinary town, which is normal. The town also has a gate. On the door was a large line of letters: "Welcome to Blackwater!" "Finally! The white night stopped, and it has finally arrived! Here, sure enough, it is the real Blackwater Town!

He turned on his phone. Unsurprisingly, there isn't any cell phone signal here. And the map downloaded in advance also shows that this is an open field, and there is no town. Bai Ye looked at the scene inside the town and walked in. People here don't seem to care about outsiders, and have the same attitude as people in big cities: turn a blind eye. It's just that some young people will look at unfamiliar faces with a little interest after seeing them. But when he saw the ordinary middle-aged face of the white night, he would turn his head away without interest.

This camouflage is indeed very easy to use, and it brings a lot of identity convenience to Bai Ye. Anyway, from the current point of view, everyone is normal. Whether it is behavior, clothes, or words, they are all ordinary people. It's like a place that couldn't be more ordinary. But Bai Ye knew that just the words "Blackwater Town" meant that this place was definitely abnormal.

The normal scene in front of me is only temporary. White night stroll along the path. It was impossible to know for a moment how big the town really was, how many inhabitants and buildings there were. If it's a real town, the kind that you can see at a glance, it's easier to deal with. But the residents here, Bai Ye feels like tens of thousands, not to mention. There are also quite a few buildings around. It seems that the whole thing is going to be considered in the long run. It is basically impossible to solve it in a short time and find the drug you want. It is estimated that the whole town will not be able to earn enough in one day. Not to mention finding the location of that precious medicine.

It was also close to evening in the afternoon. The sun was almost setting and it was approaching dusk. The street lights on both sides were also turned on one after another. Bai Ye decided to find a place to settle here first. Dinner, sleeping, and finding someone to inquire about the news all need to be done here. He soon found a conspicuous sign on the side of the road with two simple large letters: "Hotel". That's it. Bai Ye took a brief look from the outside, and the place inside was not too big, but it was neat and orderly. The first floor is supposed to double as a restaurant. There are quite a few tables and chairs, and the accommodation on the second floor is the one that goes up the stairs from the side.

This kind of small town hotel, such a configuration is very normal. He pushed the door and walked in, walked to the front desk, and knocked on the table. "Hello." A young man with oiled hair stood up from his chair, he was a waiter here. The waiter said to Bai Ye, "Is the customer a person?" Eat or stay? ”

Bai Ye smiled: "Both." Arrange it for me. "Okay." The waiter turned around and removed a key from the shelf behind him: "Sir, room 203." When you go up the stairs, you will be on the right hand side. "We have the same rooms here. There is no such thing as a good room or a normal room. Bai Ye took the key, and he noticed something. This service is not even asking him for identification. "How much?" White Night asked. "$50 a day." The waiter said. The second clue is that not only is the currency used here, but the currency is the same as the outside. It seems very normal with details. But it always gives Bai Ye a feeling of incongruity. Bai Ye took out three twenty dollars and handed them to the waiter. When the waiter was looking for money, he asked casually, "You don't have many customers here?" I don't think there are many people around. ”

"Isn't it because there aren't many tourists here?" The waiter looked for money and said, "Actually, it's okay sir." Although it is not every day that new guests come over. But there's always a new face to see in a week. After all, we're a tourist town. "False. Bai Ye sneered in his heart, he had already seen a lot of the surrounding scenes during the process of entering the town. If it is a real tourist town, I can't wait to put my own tourism slogan in the most conspicuous place. After entering like him for a while, he didn't see any promotional slogans or stickers introducing scenic spots. It's clearly not a tourist town.

Why does this waiter lie? Why lie about this kind of thing? White Night put the doubts aside for the time being. The waiter handed him a ten-yuan bill: "Sir, give you change." By the way, there is something I would like to remind you. ”

"You're new here and probably don't know. There is a requirement in our town that there will be a curfew after 7pm. It is not allowed to go out after this time period, but of course you can move freely at 7 a.m. "It's coming! Why is there such a special rule in such a small town? Bai Ye looked at the waiter and asked tentatively, "Curfew system?" That's weird, I haven't seen anything like this in any other city. The waiter gave a standard smirk: "Joke sir." We are under the jurisdiction of Hongcheng here, which is the system of Hongcheng itself. Hongcheng himself will have a curfew at night, and you will know when you go. "It's a lie again! White Night did not continue to speak to the waiter. This guy doesn't have a word of truth in his mouth, it's all nonsense. He is from Hongcheng, how can he not know the rules of Hongcheng? As a modern city, Hongcheng has no such thing as a curfew at all. Especially at night, it is an important part of its vitality. There are even some urban areas that are more lively and cheerful at night than during the day. White Night knew that something was definitely wrong here. It may be that after nightfall, there will be some special secrets here, for fear that outsiders like them will find out, so they make such a rule. Bai Ye turned to leave, but suddenly the waiter stopped him. "Sir, are you clear?"

The waiter looked at him with a polite smile on his face. Bai Ye was a little inexplicable: "What? "I'm talking about curfews. Please be sure to commit to and abide by the rules here. The waiter repeated, especially on the words "promise" and "keep". He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.

Bai Ye thought about it, this "promise" was probably a trap. Under the condition of not knowing the specific situation, you still don't talk nonsense. He nodded and said vaguely, "Yes." Okay. The waiter smiled again: "Okay." Welcome to Blackwater and we hope you have a great time here! Bai Ye was not in a good mood, so he found a table and sat down. He flipped through the menu on the table, and the contents were similar to those of an ordinary small restaurant in Hongcheng. White Nights can completely skip eating here, and it would be safer that way. The purpose of his order here is to have a chat with other people.
