Chapter 214: The Grand Ceremony

At this moment, there was a burst of snoring from the next room.

Bai Ye knew that next door to him was the businessman who had just spoken today. It seems that he slept very well and fulfilled the curfew requirements here.

After White Night confirmed that everything was correct in the room. The fully automatic turret was put away.

During the time he was out, the fully automatic turret took on the task of the camera. Now let's see what he's recorded.

Bai Ye connected to the camera of the fully automatic turret, and quickly saw the video of himself leaving just now.

The room was silent all the time, nothing changed, and there was no sound.

Only when the moonlight outside the window shifted its position, it left traces of displacement here.

White night rest easy, at least the accommodation here is safe for a short time.

When he was about to finish watching the video, he was about to put the fully automatic turret on the ground, when suddenly Bai Ye saw something unusual!

It was a black figure!

The black figure didn't come out of the door, window, or anywhere in the room, but out of thin air in the middle of the room!

Like smoke gathering, the shadows on the ground continued to gather upward, and finally turned into an ethereal black figure!

After the figure was generated, it walked straight towards the bed of the white night.

Bai Ye looked at such a video with an extremely focused expression at this time, he didn't expect that such a thing would actually happen.

What is this black figure? Phantom? Technological creations?

Or maybe it's a kind of weird creation?

Bai Ye watched the black figure in the video and slowly walked to his bed. Seeing that no one was on the bed, the black figure seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then turned his face to look in the direction of the window.

Bai Ye saw that his face did not have any facial features, only a hollow mouth, and he seemed to be shouting something.

Then, the figure drifted away unwillingly and went out through the crack in the door.

Soon after. White Night returned to the room.

Looking at such a video, Bai Ye's whole body broke out in a cold sweat.

What the hell is that thing?

It turned out to be generated out of thin air, no wonder it didn't trigger any of the props he had arranged. Fortunately, I arranged a fully automatic turret and captured this thing with a camera.

Could this black figure be one of the reasons why Blackwater doesn't let people go out at night?

Bai Ye didn't know what this black figure was trying to do, but he knew that this thing was definitely not good. The sneaky appearance went straight to Bai Ye's bed, obviously wanting to do something to Bai Ye.

Bai Ye didn't expect that he would go out and explore by himself tonight, and he would do it right. If you really want to lie here, you will fall asleep in a daze, and you may be at the hands of this strange thing!

At this time, he couldn't help but think of something in his heart.

The merchant next door, is this thing already in the hands of this thing at this time?

Thinking of this, he listened carefully to the voice of the next room. However, at this time, the next room was silent.

Bai Ye's heart sank.

He vividly remembered when he came back just now. The merchant was still snoring.

The sound was not deafening, but it was also shocking. It can't have been cured just now.

Bai Ye secretly made a decision in his heart. When you see that merchant again tomorrow, you have to be careful, especially not to tell the truth to that guy.

Tomorrow, he may not be his own person.

White Night thought. He looked at the time, and it was close to eleven o'clock.

It's time to rest.

He thought about it, but put the fully automatic turret by his side. Connect it to a power source and let it charge while helping to warn you.

He set himself up to wake up no matter what moved in the room at night.

He didn't know if there would be anything else weird in this room, the black figure like the one just now, or something else.

After making a warning, the white night finally fell asleep.

Early the next morning.

When he woke up in the night, he was glad to see that he was intact and that there was no trace of passivity on his body.

The fully automatic turret is also fully operational.

I spent the night safely for the time being.

He put away his gear and walked out the door.

During the day, you have to take the time to gather all the information you can gather. And try to find the location of ancient trees and blue flowers.

This Blackwater town is really weird. All sorts of things are very abnormal. I can't stay here for long, so it's better to get things as soon as possible and leave.

Sitting downstairs in the dining room, it turned out to be a buffet breakfast. The waiter is helping them clean up the dishes. When it came to the vicinity of the White Night, the waiter took the initiative to ask, "Sir, how was your rest last night?" ”

He was still smiling, but his eyes were looking straight at the white night. It reminds Bai Ye of the group of people he saw outside last night.

"Not bad. You guys have a nice environment here and it's quiet at night. ”

White Night replied.

The waiter didn't seem to expect the professional answer to be so calm, and was slightly stunned. Then with a smile that was not embarrassed, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Bai Ye grabbed him instead: "Wait a minute! I have a question for you. ”

The waiter turned his head and said, "What's the problem?" Please ask, sir. Our service here is all about being at home. ”

"Very well, then you're welcome." Bai Ye said with his hands in full swing: "You said yesterday that you are a tourist town? ”

"Since it is a tourist town, are there any buildings or natural attractions worth seeing? I'd like to visit it today. It's fate to come here, so you can't just leave without looking at anything. ”

Bai Ye stared at the waiter and said.

The waiter didn't seem to be prepared for this kind of question, and he seemed a little flustered when he encountered an unexpected situation, and even stammered a little when he spoke: "Eh, this...... We're here ......."

Bai Ye interrupted: "The best is a spectacular natural landscape, I am a person who loves nature. If there are any mountains, rivers, towering trees, etc., you must see them, do you have them here? ”

The waiter held back for a long time and spit out: "I'm sorry, no." ”

Bai Ye looked disappointed: "Is this still called a tourist town?" ”

"Yes, sir. We actually have a very spectacular tree here. Ten people can't hug the trunk. Be in full leaf. ”

The waiter said, "Unfortunately, it's already before. The tree was destroyed in a sudden fire. ”

"Oh? It's a bit interesting to say that, and it's okay to look at such a spectacular site. Bai Ye listened and said with interest.

In fact, he was already a little excited in his heart. With such a description, it is very likely that the blue flower grows in the vicinity. Even if it's a ruin, it's well worth looking for and trying your luck.

The waiter continued, "Sorry, it's been too long, hundreds of years ago. Our Blackwater town has been renovated since then, I don't know how many times, and now the location of the ruins is no longer available. ”

Listening to the waiter's words, Bai Yegang was a little happy, and suddenly disappointed.

The ruins can't be found, what are these things for?

Is this waiter sick?

White Night even wanted to curse, there was no such thing.

At this time, a person at the table next to him suddenly asked: "By the way, speaking of the original matter, I heard that there is a very large and spectacular festival in Blackwater Town at night, is it true?" ”

Hearing the man's question, the waiter's face changed suddenly!

He could barely hold on to a smirk just now. At this point, he didn't even smile.

Bai Ye observed the other townspeople around him, and the other people's faces changed instantly. It even felt like the whole room was cold.

Such an atmosphere makes people feel very oppressive.

Bai Ye could feel that the waiter's eyes on that person had become wrong.

He immediately sensed keenly that there must be something unspeakable here. Not only did these people know about the festival clearly, but they also kept it secret, and they definitely didn't want anyone outside to know about it.

Sure enough, the waiter was silent for a moment, and then smirked again: "Is this possible?" We in Blackwater have been under a curfew system for as long as records have been in place. It is impossible for anyone to go out at night, let alone any grand festival. ”

"You may have misremembered the customs of other towns as ours, right?"

The person who asked the question also seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere here. A little flustered.

Listening to the waiter's words, he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it is very likely that I remembered it wrong." ”

He stood up: "Alright, I should also go out for a little activity, and I will always be in the room." ”

With that, he hurried away, leaving here as if he were fleeing.

The white night stared at his back.

I'm definitely going to catch up. But you can't leave right away.

In that case, it would be too obvious and would cause these people to be wary of him.

Wait a little and find some excuse to go out and catch up with that guy. He had memorized the man's features, and he would not be mistaken.

After the man left, the room returned to the atmosphere of laughter and laughter just now. The townsfolk here seem to have become very normal again. Talk about it.

At this time, the merchant who had met last night also yawned and walked downstairs.

As he walked, he also greeted Bai Ye: "Morning, brother! ”

Bai Ye also smiled and said, "Good spirits!" It seems like I had a very good rest last night. ”

When the merchant heard this, he scratched his head: "It seems that I slept well, but I don't remember it clearly." But this morning I woke up extra energetic. ”

Bai Ye looked at him carefully, and he couldn't see any difference from yesterday.

But to say that he is completely normal, White Night does not believe it.

The merchant sat at a table near the White Night, ready to dine. Bai Ye remembered that when chatting yesterday, the merchant had inadvertently said that he would continue to travel today. The order from Hongcheng is very urgent, and he wants to visit the factory and provide suitable materials.

But now it seems that the merchant has a relaxed face, and seems to have forgotten the purpose of his visit.

"By the way, brother, didn't you say yesterday that you would get up early today? The order is not in a hurry? ”

White Night asked.

The merchant listened, as if remembering something, and scratched his head again.

"It seems to be here...... Forget it, it's not too urgent. I'll rest here for a few more days before I go. ”

The businessman said indifferently.

Bai Ye can be sure in his heart that this businessman has definitely changed! He wasn't like that at all yesterday!

Yesterday's businessman, although he was tired at night, cared about his business in every move.

Most of the topics they talk about are about their own business.

But now, he doesn't even care about business anymore, and wants to stay here for a few more days?

I'm afraid that I won't be able to get out of this stupidity!

Bai Ye was sure in his heart that this merchant was definitely manipulated last night. It's likely that the black figure did it.

He glanced at the feasting merchant and got up to leave.

I need to act as soon as possible to find the person who knew the history of this place.

Bai Ye walked out of the door, and soon saw the figure of the person just now on the path. He was walking alone on the path, and his figure seemed quite lonely.

Bai Ye chased after him and took the initiative to speak: "Hello! ”

The man looked back at him, a little surprised.

The man had thick eyes, meticulously combed hair, and was dressed in old-fashioned clothes. At first glance, he is quite a traditional person.

"Hello, I'm the guy who was in the town inn just now. I'm very interested in hearing about the history of this place, can I waste a little time and ask you about it? ”

Bai Ye said quite sincerely. With the actions that make him honest and honest. quickly dispelled the other party's doubts.

The other person introduced himself as a history buff, and his favorite thing to do was to study the different customs of different places.

History buffs have their eyes lit up when it comes to the topic in question: "If I'm not mistaken." I once saw the name of Blackwater in an ancient book from 300 years ago. And the town has always been associated with the big festivals at night. ”

"It is said that at night, the fireworks set off here can light up the road ten miles away, and the cheers can be heard far and wide, which is a very lively form of activity."

"I'm here for this festival. Originally, I couldn't find the name of Blackwater on the map, but it took me a lot of effort to find the relevant clues and come here. ”

"Who would have thought that the people here have abandoned that tradition. Even at night, there is a curfew, and I don't want to go out. ”

History buffs lament: "Alas! What a waste of feelings. How disappointing that they have forgotten their traditions! ”

Between the words, there is a feeling that the world is declining and people's hearts are not ancient.

Bai Ye secretly said in his heart, those people are not as simple as forgetting traditions.

If you just don't hold a festival, that's a good thing.

I'm afraid that this group of people in the town will do even weirder things in secret, maybe it's not true.

Bai Ye echoed a few words and continued to ask, "Then may I ask, when is this festival usually held?" ”
