Chapter 68 Conflict Let's go, the road ahead is still long. ...

"Someone died."

An anxious male voice sounded in the corner of the complex building. His voice was not loud, but it was clear enough to make everyone present stop what they were doing.

"Why is there no end to this kind of thing?"

"No way? Again?"

The two men closest to him changed their expressions drastically after hearing this. They almost simultaneously expressed their deep disgust and grief over this matter, their voices filled with panic that could not be concealed.

"Make way, make way."

Guo Kai mechanically pushed through the crowd that had suddenly gathered and walked towards the narrator in the center of the crowd. He stood in front of the narrator, his face pale and his breathing rapid as he asked, "Where did he disappear?"

Guo Kai did not say he was dead.

He was avoiding all this. As long as it didn't happen in front of him, he wanted to pretend it didn't exist. This was just a nightmare, and everything would return to the way it was when he woke up.

The narrator glanced at Guo Kai impatiently and said briefly:

“Fengchun District.”

As soon as the narrator finished speaking, Guo Kai's tense heart relaxed instantly: That's great, it has nothing to do with him.

"Where in Fengchun District?"

"It was fine before, why did it suddenly become a problem?"

A more urgent question than the previous one came from behind Guo Kai. Two people hurriedly walked towards the narrator, pushing away people and objects passing by, including Guo Kai.

The unexpected push almost made Guo Kai fall.

"Damn it." Guo Kai cursed inwardly, but he looked back at the increasingly noisy crowd who didn't care about his situation at all, and silently shrank back to the corner where he was squatting:

Overturned mineral water bottles, soaked floor mats, and silent survivors...

This is his living environment.

Guo Kai casually tore open a bag of instant noodles, and just stood in the corner, looking at the increasingly crowded crowd in front of him, and chewed slowly. The instant noodles tasted a bit dry and hard, but he didn't care.

"Did someone die somewhere?" the person next to him suddenly asked.

"I don't know. It has nothing to do with me."

Guo Kai said indifferently. He didn't want to bother with this group of people at all. If he couldn't leave this damn city, he would have left long ago. God knows why these people are so stingy even with drinking water...

He licked his lower lip subconsciously. It was a little chapped, but far from unbearable.

A bottle of mineral water was suddenly handed to Guo Kai.

His eyes lit up instantly, and he reached out like a wolf or a tiger to grab it in his arms. At this time, Guo Kai had the energy to pay attention to the people around him. A dignified old lady asked calmly:

"What did they just say?"

Guo Kai tutted in disdain, but his attitude was much more relaxed than before. He unscrewed the bottle cap and said indifferently: "Fengchun District, they said someone died in Fengchun District."

"It has nothing to do with me anyway..." Guo Kai muttered indifferently, but when he thought of something, he looked up in surprise and asked: "As for Fengchun District, does it have anything to do with you?"

The old lady didn't answer.

She just stood up and walked towards the main entrance of the complex building calmly, as if she had thought something through. A staggering little girl blocked her way, and the aunt reached out to help her.

The little girl blinked in confusion: "Thank you, Auntie."

The old lady looked down and reached into her pocket to find something. She squatted down and asked the little girl in a gentle but tired tone: "Hello, did you lose your hairband?"

On the old lady's open palm, a string of red glass beads appeared in front of people.

The glass beads are rosy in color, as red as a girl's blood.

Li Ming and his companion were walking on the quiet street.

The temperature was inexplicably cold today, and the mist turned into piercing ice knives that shattered the already thin body temperature defense line. Li Ming was forced to sneak into a clothing store passing by and took a coat from inside.

When he casually flipped open the label of clothes, Li Ming made a stiff sound.

A price you can't afford in a lifetime.

"How about this one?" Jiang Huai picked up a sports jacket with ease and shouted to Li Ming, "It should be your size. It won't hinder your movement."

Li Ming was silent: "..."

Li Ming realized what was happening: "Jiang Huai, don't you come to this kind of store often?"

"Is there any problem?" Jiang Huai tilted his head in confusion. He looked at the clothing in the store, which only had black, white and gray, and asked in confusion: "Could it be that Li Ming, you don't like the style of this store?"

Li Ming suddenly fell silent:

He finally knew where Jiang Huai got his wardrobes from.

So Li Ming had no choice but to answer dryly: "No, nothing."

"I'll go explore the way first. If everything is ok, I'll call you over."

After everything was ready, Jiang Huai suddenly spoke. He turned his head cautiously to observe Li Ming's expression, only to see Li Ming's hands crossed, with a cold expression that said "see what you can say".

Jiang Huai smiled bitterly when he saw this.

"I'm still a little worried about what you said yesterday..." Jiang Huai explained awkwardly, "If possible, I'll contact the other side first. If something happens then, I..."

He trailed off in the middle of his speech.

Jiang Huai looked at Li Ming cautiously. Li Ming was lost in thought at this moment. He understood Jiang Huai's worry. Even though he was in good condition now, he could not predict what would happen to him next.

In particular, the rule that "if you approach the boundary of a territory, you will be noticed by the corresponding monster" does exist.

So Li Ming sighed in compromise: "Okay, you're right."

"This is not just your concern, it's my concern as well. But Jiang Huai..." Li Ming quickly changed the subject, closed his eyes and sighed, "Have you ever thought that if I don't go, they will think there is something wrong with us?"

He looked directly into Jiang Huai's eyes and said frankly: "If I were in the other party's shoes, I would feel that they are hiding something from me and I can't trust them."

"I must go." Li Ming said firmly.

The influence of the field on him is still within the controllable range, and he has the ability to explore now. The comic forum said that "Li Yixi is definitely in Lingcheng", and Li Ming also believes that Li Yixi is in Lingcheng.

He has to take action.

Because he is the older brother.

"If you don't want to encounter something you shouldn't encounter, we can stay away from it." After thinking for a moment, Li Ming spoke calmly.

"No, I never thought so." Jiang Huai denied it subconsciously, but soon he seemed to realize something and looked at a loss, and his movements became more chaotic.

Jiang Huai hurried towards Li Ming, but stopped abruptly.

Jiang Huai's eyes were filled with changing emotions, and he defended himself with difficulty: "I really don't think so."

Li Ming blinked in surprise when he saw this.

He didn't expect that his words would cause such a big reaction from Jiang Huai.

"I trust you."

Facing Jiang Huai's stunned gaze, Li Ming said firmly without hesitation: "I really believe you."

"Why?"

"Because you are Jiang Huai."

An unexpected answer, so abrupt that it could even make Jiang Huai's brain freeze. After hearing this, Jiang Huai said with some complexity: "You trust me quite a bit."

After hearing this, Li Ming shrugged calmly.

Even though Li Ming doesn't know Jiang Huai, he knows the protagonist of "Misty City". The Jiang Huai that readers know is definitely not someone who would escape from the battlefield.

Not to mention that he personally knew Jiang Huai.

"If you can trust me as much as I trust you, I think I'll be happy." Li Ming joked.

Although he knew that Jiang Huai should not be able to do it, Li Ming had the future vision to see the comic forum and know what happened last week, but Jiang Huai had nothing.

Jiang Huai had nothing, but he reached the end of last week's episode by himself.

When Li Ming thought of this, he suddenly remembered: comic readers often say at the beginning of the sequel that "Jiang Huai destroys the world", "the protagonist degenerates into a disaster on the spot", etc., but in fact...

JAC has not been affected by the mirror field.

"Jiang Huai, you..." Li Ming hesitated and looked at his compatriot who was not good at speaking.

Did you die as a human being?

Jiang Huai noticed Li Ming's attention and scratched his head awkwardly. He said solemnly: "I can't do it now, but I think I will be able to do it in the future."

What to do?

Li Ming was suddenly stunned, but the answer had already been given in his heart: Jiang Huai was saying that in the future he would trust Li Ming as much as Li Ming trusted him.

Li Ming couldn't help laughing: "There's no need to be so serious just for a joke."

"But you are quite right."

Jiang Huai nodded to himself and said, "This is because of distrust, so the conflict occurred. It's my fault."

Li Ming raised his eyebrows after hearing this:

It seems that JAC is reflecting on itself again.

"Let's go." Li Ming quickly put on his jacket, patted Jiang Huai on the shoulder and said, "If you have anything to say, let's talk while we walk. Don't be late."

When he reached the door, Li Ming suddenly turned around and smiled: "Your idea is correct, but..."

"Just trust my guess for now."

He was the only one in Lingcheng who was affected by the spiritual influence of the domain. This was definitely not a coincidence, and he believed that his proximity to the edge of Lingcheng would not have any impact.

What’s more, Li Ming couldn’t feel the existence of “another self” at all.

Li Ming's coat rustled in the strong wind, but his black eyes were unusually bright, bright and gentle, just like the impression he gave to the people around him.

It is transparent and bright, like a piece of beautiful jade.

"Let's just take it as it is."

Jiang Huai shook his head helplessly, but this time he couldn't help but smile a little bit.

"Let's go, the road ahead is still long."

They high-fived at the wind’s edge.

But today's story is far from over. When Li Ming and the other man walked to the agreed meeting place, the first thing Li Ming saw was a young man with a gloomy face.

The young man opened his mouth and said, "Lu Youwei is dead. You don't have to look for him."

An expected event.

Li Ming asked calmly: "Where did you find his body?"

"It happened early this morning in Fengchun District." The young man looked disappointed. "He fell on a truck full of daily necessities. We didn't have time to check it before, and the patrolman found it by accident this morning."

He looked up at Li Ming and the other man and said, "Have you also been asked to help find him?"

Li Ming nodded with a heavy heart. He had expected that his uncle would definitely ask more than just the two of them to help find someone, but he didn't expect the survivors' team to be so fast.

An expectation was dashed before it even began.

"My last name is Hu, you can call me Lao Hu."

Old Hu spoke up. He looked around and said to Li Ming and the others seriously, "Some things are inconvenient to talk about now, but I hope you can help us find the cause first."

Jiang Huai blinked in surprise.

"We must find the disasters that are causing the problem." Lao Hu said word by word firmly, "Otherwise, many people will die next."

He placed particular emphasis on the words "many, many".

Jiang Huai asked curiously: "Have you always been like this?"

Li Ming felt something was wrong: "Have you ever thought about leaving Lingcheng?"

Lao Hu did not answer immediately.

He looked straight ahead and walked hurriedly. When Li Ming behind him thought that he would not answer him, Lao Hu said, "I have been outside, and the situation outside is worse than Lingcheng. But in Lingcheng--"

“The situation is still under control.”

While speaking, Lao Hu instinctively touched the pistol on his belt.
