So everyone put up barbed wire fences around the fog and established patrol teams to strictly prohibit lone wolves from entering at will and disrupting the cooperation between large groups and the research on the fog. The enclosed area is called the Land of Piety.
Today, another group of scavengers rushed in for unknown reasons, and the fog of the pious land has begun to boil. This means that for a period of time, no one can enter the center of the town.
After hearing this, the three players all looked a little grim.
Cheng Shi frowned and asked, "How long will this boiling fog last?"
"I don't know... Only Wells knows. These regularity research results are in their hands. We are just begging for food to survive, really."
The words are indeed true, and they are true from beginning to end.
But because it was all true, Cheng Shi felt a little uneasy.
"You, tell me a lie."
"?" The lame old man was stunned, not understanding what this adult meant.
"I'll tell you a lie once, don't make me tell it a third time."
"I... don't hate you."
?
It's a lie, but...
Bro, you're a bit out of your mind.
So, under Zhang Jizu's chuckle and Ai Si's laughter, Cheng Shi cut the lame old man's neck with a knife, and then took out the brooch from his bosom. He still hid the brooch in his palm so that Zhang Jizu and Ai Si could not see it, and asked towards the corpse:
"Have you seen any other strange scavengers like us today?"
The body of the lame old man said no.
Cheng Shi felt relieved and casually reached out and brought the old man back to life.
"The mental energy consumed in saving people is on you two. Remember to compensate me. Let's go. It seems that Wells is the key to our trip.
In order to ensure that we find that thing before the end of the trial, we have to speed up."
As he spoke, Cheng Shi walked out first, and Ai Si followed closely with a strange look on his face. Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes slightly, stretched out his hand and touched the old man for a while, and after confirming that this was indeed an old man with little strength, he paced and followed.
Seeing the three people leave, the lame old man trembled and got up from the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.
These strangers went to find Wells, which meant that he definitely couldn't go back to the base. In order to avoid conflict, it was best to hide outside the town for a while!
Thinking of this, the old man took a step and ran in the direction where Cheng Shi and the others came from.
But just as he escaped to the ice ridge where Cheng Shi was standing at that time, the lame old man was horrified to find that the man who had just given him death had appeared in front of him again!
Seeing the adult who had just changed into a windbreaker, the old man immediately fell to the ground and burst into tears.
"My Lord, I was wrong. I was really wrong."
"What did you do wrong?" Cheng Shi in windbreaker raised his eyebrows, as if he could see what happened.
"I...I shouldn't hate you, I really don't hate you!"
"......You are telling a lie with a righteous tone." Feng Yi Cheng Shi snorted and slapped the old man on the shoulder while squatting on the ground. "Go ahead, repeat what you just said to me, and I will let you go."
The old man was stunned. Although he was confused, he spoke frankly immediately.
Feng Yi Cheng Shi did not make things difficult for him and let him go, but not long after he left, the old man saw this adult again in front of a dilapidated house.
Only this time, he changed back into his jacket.
"......"
The lame old man was shocked. He looked at the adult in front of him with horror and slapped himself in the face.
For a moment, he felt that the strange fog in the pious land seemed to be spreading a little. Otherwise, why didn't this adult let him go and kept asking him about some unnecessary "secrets"?
But this time he learned his lesson. Before the jacket owner Cheng Shi could speak, he told him everything he knew.
Cheng Shi, who was wearing a jacket, curled his lips, looked towards the direction of the town center, and smiled meaningfully.
"They are fast enough, but sometimes, being fast is not a good thing."
After saying that, he let the lame old man go and plunged into the snow and wind ahead.
