C167 (1/2)
After the old Daoist left us, what happened? Just now, he was screaming at the top of his lungs. Could it be that he encountered some difficulties?
And why did he tell us to run? Could it be that there was some danger here?
Thinking of this, I subconsciously scanned the surroundings and found that it was peaceful. The tourists were admiring the scenery for photos, flirting and scolding, and all of them were smiling. It was a harmonious atmosphere.
How could such a scene be linked to danger?
However, since the old Daoist told us to flee, there must be a reason behind it. Then I began to worry about the old man's safety. I was wondering if we should go find him. However, a second later, I immediately denied such a ridiculous idea. This worry was obviously unnecessary, the old Taoist was so awesome, if he really encounters difficulties, he can definitely solve them himself, and if we can't even solve it for him, then we won't be able to solve it. Who knows, he might even become the hostage of the mysterious person emitting the scorpion-like sound.
When I thought of this, I looked at An Gui and found that he was also looking at me.
We looked at each other for a moment, then both understood immediately. Without another word, we headed for the exit of the garden.
But then the two tourists on the side of the road suddenly stretched out their feet, and we ran so fast that we didn't notice at all, and with a ”Ouch!” we stumbled and both of us fell flat on the ground. This was the true ”flinging onto the street”, and he had almost lost his front teeth.
I quickly got up and turned around to scold her. But before I could open my mouth, I realized that there weren't even any ghosts behind me. Where is that person?
An Gui and I looked at each other, our expressions turning even more unsightly.
”Just now, were there two people …” An Gui's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as he trembled with fear.
”F * ck, looks like I really met a ghost during the day!”
But at this moment, I looked around and saw the tourists not too far away looking at me and An Gui as if they were crazy and whispering something to each other.
I was a little embarrassed in my heart and smiled bitterly a few times. It seemed that An Gui and I would have the chance to appear on the headlines of the university news today. Perhaps the headline would be like this: Two university students from an industrial university in Guangfu suddenly went crazy in Linlan Garden. The subtitle read: The initial diagnosis of rabies was made by the doctor.
When An Gui saw everyone looking at him with a peculiar expression, he felt a little embarrassed. After seeing me giggling, he immediately slapped me and said, ”Smile like a fool? Are you crazy? ”
I immediately recovered from my bad thoughts and shouted out a single word, ”Run!”
Then, ignoring the gazes of the surrounding tourists, he ran forward with all his might.
At this moment, since everyone was looking at him as if he were a madman, An Gui didn't want to arrogantly run away. However, seeing that I had already ran away, he had no choice but to follow closely behind me.
We had run for more than ten minutes, across several slate streets, and were panting on a patch of grass against the wall.
Three more Stonewall Streets and we'll be at the exit.
At this moment, An Gui, who was following behind him, suddenly cried out, ”Aiyo!”
When I looked back, I saw him sprawled on the ground. He seemed to have fallen.
I hastily went back and helped him up. ”What happened?”
An Gui's face twisted like a fried dough twist as he cried out in pain. Panting, he said, ”My toes were hit by something. It hurts like hell. Hiss, whoosh …”
I looked at the lawn and saw a bowl-sized tree stump on the ground. An Gui's toes must have hit this small tree stump.
I looked at the tree stump and was stunned. I leaned over and touched the broken part on the tree stump and found that it was very neat. Apart from some fresh resin seeping out, the whole surface of the tree stump didn't have any rough feeling.
At this moment, I leaned the resin on my hand against my nose and sniffed. It was good that I didn't smell it, but this smell immediately made me feel that something was wrong.
”Not good, this is the peach tree stump …” I said in a daze.
”Huh?” An Gui was stunned for a moment before a confused expression appeared on his face. ”What's wrong with the stump of the peach tree?”
I scanned the surroundings and said dazedly, ”Don't you feel that the environment around this place is very familiar?”
An Gui looked around before reacting, ”This is where the fake peach tree with the blossoming flower is kept!”
I laughed dryly a few times. ”Hehe, that isn't a fake peach tree at all …” Then, he bitterly looked at the peach tree stump.
In that case, the old Daoist's previous guess was correct!
This place was most likely not the real world!
Hehe, I thought back then that I was mocking his mental state …
I couldn't help but smile bitterly. My expression was already stiff and I was almost petrified.
At this time, An Gui finally understood what was going on. His expression didn't look any better. He weakly asked me, ”What do we do now?”
I said, ”What else can we do? Stupid! Of course we have to run!”
After saying that, I raised my leg and prepared to sprint a hundred meters forward. In one breath, I dashed out of the lousy garden.
But then my cell phone rang again!
I took out my cell phone and saw that there was no number. It must be that mysterious person calling again!
”Hey!” What exactly do you want?! ” As soon as I got through, I yelled into my cell phone.
”Hehe!” ”Looks like you already know a lot of truths, but it doesn't matter. To tell you the truth, this is just a small scale simulation space, and the door to the real world has already been closed by me. Hehe, if you guys had run a little faster just now, you might have been able to escape, but now, hehe, even if all of you have rocket launchers installed on your feet, you guys shouldn't be able to escape from here …”
”Gong Nan, run! Don't believe him!” At this moment, the old Daoist's voice suddenly sounded out from the other side of the phone, interrupting the mysterious person's words.
The mysterious person immediately let out a ”F * ck” and then heard the old Daoist let out a miserable ”Ah!”. The mysterious person fiercely said, ”F * ck you! You broke one of my iPhones just now, and now you want to use this move? Let's see if your mom will recognize you if I don't!”
On the other end of the phone, there was the sound of punches and kicks. The old Daoist screamed incessantly.
An Gui and I looked at each other, completely stunned. We didn't think that such a powerful existence like the old Daoist would be so powerless to fight back after being oppressed by him!
I came back to my senses and shouted into the phone, ”What the hell do you want?”
”Hee hee, it's very simple. Follow the route I told you to come here and meet your friend. Heh heh, don't say that I don't give you guys a chance. As long as you are strong enough to defeat me, you will be able to save your long-browed friend …”
”Good!” Say it! ” I agreed without thinking.
”Hehe, at least you're sensible.” A disgusting voice that sounded like a pile of shit came over from the phone, ”You guys turn left now and walk straight towards the small street in front. Hurry up!”
I turned to look, and to my left was a narrow street that could fit only two people.
Then the mysterious man said: ”Hurry! We have to move forward quickly, and do not look back! ”
With the old Daoist in his hands, An Gui and I had no choice but to comply. We quickly walked into the small street.
But then again, something didn't seem right …
That mysterious person was so awesome that even the old Daoist could weigh him in his hands. Why didn't he just directly go and capture these two scum whose fighting strength was only five?
