Chapter 1383 Dayun Mountain 3
"who?"
All the people who had stayed where they were stood up and walked out of the temple gate.
Squeak—click, click.
A few barely audible sounds echoed from the temple.
At the same time, many people ran out from the fog.
These were the people who had to pay out in the morning, but their number was almost half of what it was when they left.
"What's going on? Where are the others?"
A short-haired woman among those who stayed asked.
"It was so foggy outside that we got separated from them."
"What's going on outside?"
The woman continued to ask.
"There was thick fog everywhere and I couldn't see anything."
Another person replied, "We got lost not long after we got there. It's only thanks to Brother Zhang's good sense of direction that we wouldn't have been able to get back."
"I was just relying on fog too. Unless this fog clears up, it's too dangerous to go out now."
The man called Brother Zhang said in summary.
About twenty people went out, and only a few came back. Those who had originally stayed here but were hesitant began to be glad that they did not choose to leave with them.
Over the next two hours, several more people came back.
But as time went on, fewer and fewer people came back, and in the afternoon, no one came back at all.
When compared to the number of people, it is almost half less.
Now, in addition to Fu Anan, there are a family of four who stayed behind, a bus conductor, a couple, a woman dressed like a village girl with a straight back, a man with a gun who claimed to be a policeman; and 9 people who ran back from the fog one after another.
A total of 19 people.
Among these people, the family of four has the most supplies. The child is spoiled by four people in the family and has almost no end to snacks.
The second one is probably the couple. The man was carrying two large bags of food, all packed in plastic bags, which made people a little greedy.
The third one is probably Fu Anan.
Her big pocket was filled with several pounds of dates, several pounds of walnuts, and enough naan to last her for a long time.
There are more, and of course there are less.
The ticket seller had nothing with him except his cell phone and ID card, and the nine people who escaped did not have much supplies on them either.
But the ticket seller was smart. He went to borrow food from the couple in the morning and spent some money to buy food from them. As for the other 9 people...
"No! If we sell it to you, our Nan Nan will have nothing to eat."
Although there is plenty of food for a family of four, they don’t sell it.
No matter how much the nine of them offered, their attitude remained remarkably firm. This gave the leading man a very unhappy expression, as did the others. If they were all players, a fight would have broken out long ago.
Oh, they won't for now in order to blend in with the NPCs.
But smart people have already started forming cliques.
Fu Anan was thinking to herself when the nine-member gang came towards her. "Little sister, can you give us some food? Don't worry, we'll pay for it. And the rescuers will be here in about two days. If you're worried, you can leave three days' worth of food."
The one who spoke was Brother Zhang.
This person looks very friendly, but all players know that three days is definitely not enough.
Too sure, the tone and style are especially like those of a player.
Fu Anan thought to herself, pretending to be a little scared and grabbing her woven bag, "But I don't have enough food for two days."
"It's okay. I'm just assuming the worst. According to the police deployment, they should be able to rescue us in two days at most."
Brother Zhang said with a smile, looking calm and composed.
"Are you so sure?"
The short-haired woman who stayed behind asked back.
"Of course, this is my experience from many years of police service."
Brother Zhang was very calm when answering, and there was no suspicion of lying at all. He also took out a police officer's ID to further verify his identity.
"You're a police officer!"
Someone said it, causing everyone to look in the same direction.
"yes."
This identity seemed to bring a natural sense of cohesion and security. The group, already anxious, felt reassured, and they all gathered around him. Zhang, with a smile, soothed the restless crowd and collected a large amount of supplies sent by the refugees.
Even the family of four who had been so firm just now sent one.
Only the short-haired woman and two other, less prominent men hadn't given anything. Even Fu An'an had given two handfuls of walnuts. She was mainly doing it out of formality, not wanting to stand out when everyone else was giving.
But he's a policeman...
This person has never done anything to appease, organize, or do anything related to his police identity from beginning to end. Fu Anan doesn't really believe in his identity.
What's more, he kept saying that rescue would come in two days, but in fact he was the most active in stockpiling supplies.
She swept her eyes over these people. The players in this round of game were all very smart.

Day 3 of the game
The fog outside still hasn't dissipated.
But surprisingly, some people came back. They were the team that went to look for their relatives yesterday.
Five people went there, and now two are back.
The two of them supported each other, their legs were covered with mud, and they limped in, looking extremely embarrassed.
Inside the dilapidated temple, everyone's attention was focused here. Brother Zhang stood up as a representative and told them to find a place to sit carefully. "Where are the others?"
"They're all dead."
The two men were pale, with fear in their eyes as they said, "There's another strange creature outside. It dragged them into the fog and sucked them dry."
Many people don't believe such weird words.
"What monster?"
"Strange, you two are separated."
"It's indeed a bit strange. Haven't you noticed that the fog hasn't changed since the day before yesterday?
The short-haired woman stood up, analyzing and setting the pace, "And my phone, it has no signal, and I can't find any audio even on the radio."
"What do you mean by that?"
The old lady from the family of four stood up and said, "Officer Zhang is still here, please don't spread rumors of monsters and gods."
"Actually... this possibility cannot be ruled out."
Officer Zhang continued the short-haired woman's words, frowning slightly.
Just as she was about to say something else, Fu Anan suddenly noticed that one of the men who had just returned had been scratching his neck. As he did so, a purple bulge appeared under his collar. "What's wrong with your neck?"
"What?"
When the man heard Fu Anan's words, he turned to face her and turned his back to face the rest of the crowd.
The obvious bulge was visible at a glance. Someone saw it and lifted up his clothes.
It was a dark purple insect with soft segments and the thickness of a thumb.
Only the tail of the insect remained outside, the other half having already burrowed into the man's body. A large bulge formed where his neck and shoulder met, and the insect's tail was still twisting, as if it was trying to burrow its entire body inside.
“Oh my God!”
The person behind took several steps back. His companion was very close and couldn't bear it and vomited.
