Chapter 46 Xiao Yiyan dies before he succeeds
Where will he meet the other party?
Li Ming's eyes reflected the dark shadows that were drifting like ashes under the dawn, and he was confused. But the answer to this question was not told by the other party until the end.
Everything happened so fast.
Li Ming hurried downstairs and took out the map he had sorted out last night. Although the monster's original intention was not to help Li Ming find the map, he did it, and did it more seriously than Li Ming imagined.
Li Ming packed his things in silence.
He turned his head to look at the sky. The rising sun looked particularly lonely in front of the thick dark clouds.
It will rain heavily immediately or soon.
So Li Ming put on his backpack and hurried out of the library. He couldn't stay in the library any longer, it was too empty and too eye-catching.
When fighting alone, he must make the field as favorable to himself as possible.
But when Li Ming ran to the place where he had chatted with Jiang Huai yesterday, he couldn't help but stop. Li Ming looked back at the cafe on the third floor of the library, thinking about the scene at that time.
While he and Jiang Huai were playing, was the monster watching them from the French window of the cafe?
Why did you come all the way to see him?
That's ridiculous.
He couldn't understand it, and he definitely didn't want to understand it.
So Li Ming started running again. He needed to find an area that was as far away from light as possible to hide. Li Ming remembered what he saw yesterday -
The lights at night were turned off one by one.
If Li Ming's guess was correct, someone or a disaster must be destroying the lights. If he was not sure who was destroying them, he'd better not get close to the lights.
His talent is really useless...
Li Ming sighed again at this cruel fact, but this time he suddenly heard the monster's cautious voice: "Li Ming, I want to be your prophet."
Really, if you're looking for someone, at least find someone who can fight.
The more Li Ming thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He deliberately didn't want to think about it, but now his mind was so upset that he couldn't control it: Damn it, I don't know what kind of noise the forum will cause after reading it...
Maybe he will be scolded out of the street tomorrow.
Even though he kept saying that he was a paper man, Li Ming felt that he could not bear the verbal battles on the forum. Has he now taken away the title of Jiang Huai's savior?
It's torture.
When passing by a convenience store, Li Ming stopped for some unknown reason. He subconsciously touched his empty stomach and thought absentmindedly:
I'm so hungry and want to eat.
Yesterday, Li Ming lost contact with Jiang Huai in the library, so he didn't have dinner. Monsters without taste obviously don't realize the dietary needs of humans.
So as of now, he had only taken half a sip of the coffee powder mixture.
Li Ming glanced hurriedly at the overcast sky and ran quickly towards the convenience store.
There must be a place for him to hide in the convenience store, and as long as he can successfully turn off the convenience store's night sensor lights, this place can become his temporary refuge.
This is an excellent shelter at a time when it is unclear how long the rainstorm will last.
But the only thing to worry about is:
Do other humans feel the same way?
Li Ming walked into the convenience store quietly. He gently closed the glass door and prepared to take a few loaves of bread from the shelf and put them in his backpack. However, what was even more blatant than his actions was the gazes from others.
A strange young man was standing next to the cashier counter, looking at Li Ming who was squatting and walking in with confusion.
Li Ming blinked blankly at this.
He died before he could accomplish his mission.
He had only entered one door and hadn't even had time to touch the bread shelf.
"you……"
The strange young man tried to organize his words hesitantly, but before he could finish, a few drops of rain suddenly appeared on the steps of the convenience store.
The young man's face changed when he saw this.
He walked quickly towards Li Ming, but he deliberately paused for a moment under the sunlight shining through the glass door, as if silently declaring the fact that he was a human being.
An unexpectedly attentive person.
"Come with me, it's not safe here." The young man hurriedly pulled Li Ming's arm and said seriously. He pulled Li Ming over and took him to the convenience store warehouse.
Li Ming stared blankly at the young man holding his arm, his eyes involuntarily moving between the back of his hand and his back.
The absurdity in his heart reached its highest point at this moment.
Less than half a day after leaving the library, Li Ming once again met a young man with the same appearance, but this time he was a human.
“I didn’t expect to run into any survivors.”
After hurriedly locking the door of the convenience store warehouse, the strange young man smiled bitterly at Li Ming behind him. He had a handsome face, gentle manners, and a gentle temperament like jade.
Seeing this, Li Ming suddenly became entangled in his inner struggle:
How can two people with the same appearance give off such different temperaments?
Seeing this, the young man could only cough lightly and introduced himself helplessly: "Hello, I'm Xiao Yiyan. Can I ask your name? Are you from Chuncheng?"
"Uh..." Li Ming turned his eyes away in annoyance. He said dully, "My name is Li Ming, I'm just passing through Chuncheng."
"Yeah?"
Xiao Yiyan murmured regretfully after hearing this, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Like you, I was also trapped when passing through Chuncheng. Just now I was thinking it would be great if I could meet the natives of Chuncheng, but now it seems that it is not the case..."
He extended his hand to Li Ming in a friendly manner and said with a faint smile: "But we will be together for a while from now on."
The tone of his voice is really comfortable and his behavior is very polite.
Li Ming looked at the other person's outstretched right hand and thought absentmindedly: If only Jiang Huai's personality could be half as good as his brother's...
"good."
He finally shook the other party's offered hand.
The rain was beating against the doors and windows fiercely, and the sound of trees whistling was endless. Li Ming, curled up in the corner, stared silently at the mottled shadows of the trees outside the window.
I still don’t want to think about what’s going on.
In a dark corner not far away, the rustling sound of cartons could be heard. Xiao Yiyan took out a box from the pile of cartons in the convenience store warehouse and examined it carefully.
He pondered for a moment, shook the box in his hand, and finally confirmed that this was what he wanted.
So Xiao Yiyan whispered to Li Ming:
"I found a box of self-heating rice here, would you like to try it?"
After hearing this, Li Ming looked up weakly. In the dim light, he couldn't see what the self-heating rice in the other person's hand looked like, but he was indeed very hungry.
"Is there any mineral water in the warehouse?" Li Ming asked.
"mineral water?"
After hearing this, Xiao Yiyan murmured in a low voice: "I remember there is one. Let me recall where it is."
He groped his way towards the location of the mineral water tank in his memory. His steps were a little messy and it sounded like he was tripping over some cardboard or woven bag from time to time.
Just as Li Ming was thinking about whether to stop him from continuing to look, Xiao Yiyan smiled complacently and said, "I found it. It seems that my memory has not deteriorated."
These two people really don't look like brothers at all.
Li Ming observed the other person quietly.
Xiao Yiyan's hair and eye color are lighter than Jiang Huai's. His clothing style is also brighter, while Jiang Huai's white, black and gray color combination has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
So before Xiao Yiyan confessed that he was Xiao Yiyan, Li Ming did not associate him with 'Jiang Huai's brother'.
No wonder Jiang Huai never said anything.
The two people are completely different in terms of appearance, clothing, behavior and conduct.
"Give."
Xiao Yiyan gently placed the item he just mentioned in front of Li Ming. After doing these things, he turned around and walked to the seat near the window, sat down quietly, and observed the situation outside.
"Thank you." Li Ming expressed his gratitude in a low voice.
He randomly cut open the outer packaging of the self-heating rice and followed the steps in his memory. Waiting time is often boring, and Li Ming once again looked in the direction of Xiao Yiyan.
It was hard for him not to suspect that the monster chose Xiao Yiyan's appearance because he knew that he would meet Xiao Yiyan next.
Prophets are annoying.
Li Ming grumbled inwardly: If he had known about this earlier, he would have punched the other person on the spot. He was so mysterious that he didn't even give people time to think.
Who would commit suicide on the spot if a meeting failed?
It was as if something was chasing him, forcing him to commit suicide... Li Ming suddenly fell silent when he thought of this, because the monster did say that he was being chased by a domain master with similar talents...
But Li Ming still didn't believe it. Li Ming would never believe it.
At most, he believed that he was connected to the abyss.
Because this is an indisputable, established fact. Because only in this way can he occupy a corner of the other party's fate as a 'non-savior'. But...
Let's see what the forum says first.
"Did you encounter something yesterday?" Xiao Yiyan asked in confusion when he noticed the gaze.
"Me?" Li Ming was stunned. He replied with averted eyes: "About the same, I encountered a monster yesterday."
A monster that looks just like you.
"I see..." Xiao Yiyan murmured in a low voice, and then he smiled helplessly: "That's really hard work. I'm almost having a nervous breakdown recently."
"How long have you been trapped?" Li Ming suddenly asked.
"Today is the sixth day."
The sixth day? Li Ming fell into thought after hearing this: that is, Xiao Yiyan was trapped just before, and then they were trapped.
"Today is the third day I've been trapped." Li Ming said seriously, "Can I ask if you encountered the same rainstorm as this morning before you found yourself trapped?"
Xiao Yiyan's eyes suddenly became sharp: "Did you find out too?"
"This rainstorm came by coincidence," he emphasized seriously. "It happened just after someone destroyed the lights on a large scale last night. I didn't see any rainstorms in the area in the five days before this."
"Even if it's your entry."
Li Ming said confidently: "I think someone already knows how to leave this area."
He should have known this was the case.
'Rainy Night Horror' is a disaster area that existed before the catastrophe.
The authorities had evacuated the residential areas of Chuncheng on the grounds of "nuclear pollution". Even if they did not have time to deal with the "Rainy Night Terror" later and could only allow the area to expand, the method of leaving the "Rainy Night Terror" must be in their hands.
And it happens that——
In the current field, there is a Revelator with an official background.
It was Cui Wanwan who turned off the lights.
But after thinking for a moment, Li Ming still asked cautiously: "Are you sure there is only one derivative in the current field?"
"Are there any cases with multiple derivatives?" Xiao Yiyan tilted his head in confusion after hearing this.
He immediately looked at Li Ming with complicated eyes, and laughed: "Your experience seems to be more tortuous than mine, but this is the only area I can guarantee that there is only one kind."
"I have tried many ways in the past five days, but have not been able to leave successfully. If there is a second derivative, then I will definitely meet them."
“It’s just that there are some issues that bother me.”
Xiao Yiyan said with a melancholy tone: "I think you should have thought about these questions too-"
"Why do I rarely see ordinary people in this area? Where did those residents who didn't have time to evacuate go?"
This is a question that only officials or prophets can answer.
