Between life and death [unlimited]

It seemed like a long time had passed, and it seemed that it had only passed for a moment. Jiang Lai woke up from the haze.

With the experience of wandering on the edge of life and death all year round, the moment he woke up, his body naturally took on a defensive posture.

Like a sharp blade not out of its scabbard, Jiang Xun cautiously looked around the environment and found nothing unusual. Then he put away the murderous aura around him, and his temperament instantly changed to ordinary, no different from ordinary people.

In the dark night, there are only a few dimly lit street lamps on the endless asphalt road, scattered like fireflies in summer, dotted with stars.

This is an empty and deserted road, and Jiang Li, who just woke up, is standing in the middle of the road.There is not even a car or a person at either end of the road.

So is it time to move forward, or backward?

He hesitated for a moment, then took off a gold coin necklace from his neck, took off the hanging gold coin, and threw it upwards into the sky.

Counting the time for thinking, the whole process did not exceed ten seconds. He looked smooth and familiar with the road. It seemed that he often encountered such entangled things, and he habitually used this resignation method to solve them.

Jiang Lai stretched out his right hand, grasped the coin that fell under the influence of gravity in his palm, and when he spread it out, he found that it was the side of the figure that was a gold coin.

Without hesitation, he walked into the direction of the night sky behind him.

Jiang Lai's sense of time is naturally excellent. Even if he doesn't have any timekeeping tools such as clocks around him, he can roughly infer how long he has traveled.

After walking for more than half an hour, he finally saw lights other than street lights.

It was a wooden house standing alone in the wilderness.There is a huge exaggerated light sign on the roof, which says "Traveler Hotel". The lighting effect is as colorful as a circus, and it looks extremely dazzling in the dark night sky.

This wooden house, which looks like an American motel on the outside, appears abruptly on the side of the road, with its bare back against the dark wasteland. The wooden door swings without wind, like a monster's mouth wide open. , waiting for the arrival of the lost lamb.

This time without even hesitating, Jiang Lie walked straight into the wooden house.

The scene inside the house was just as dilapidated as the outside.Stains had accumulated on the walls for an unknown number of years, and there was a bar counter that had begun to peel off against the wall, and an old-fashioned TV set with snowflakes was placed on the bar counter.Hearing the sound of someone coming in, a fat man with big ears appeared out of nowhere from under the bar, and he looked exactly like a little fat man with Down syndrome.

The little fat man's skin is very white, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and nose bridge, and his hair is also the golden color of traditional Westerners. He asked Jiang Xun in Chinese with a look of hospitality: "Do you want to stay here?! My valued customer, can you come here It is absolute luck, the price of our Vagabond Hotel is absolutely high quality and low price, no one deceives anyone!"

Jiang Lai didn't pay attention to the little fat man's strange tone. He glanced at the empty lobby and found that there was only a narrow old wooden door next to the bar. All the hotel rooms should be behind this wooden door.

He didn't answer the question, and signaled the little fat man at the bar to continue talking with his eyes.

The little fat man continued to introduce in his half-baked Chinese: "What a lucky customer! We only have one double room left now, so you can stay in that spacious room alone!"

"Of course, we only charge you a share, 10 gold coins a night is enough! You know, a double room usually costs 20 gold coins! What a lucky customer!"

As he said that, the little fat man found a key from under the bar, and then used his fat fingers to hand it to Jiang Xun.

When Jiang Shou took the key, the familiar electronically synthesized voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

[Transaction content: One night in a double room at the Traveler's Hotel]

[Transaction amount: 10 gold coins]

【Does the player confirm this transaction? 】

As soon as the words fell, a picture frame with two options appeared out of thin air in front of Jiang Yu.

【Yes or no】

Jiang Xun chose yes in his mind.

The little fat man seemed to have received the 10 gold coins at the same time, and he handed the key to Jiang Lai with a happy smile.

"By the way, the toilet and bathroom are shared, just on the right side of the door. I wish you a pleasant stay, wishyouagoodnight!"

Jiang Lai walked into the corridor behind the dilapidated wooden door, as if to save money, the lights on the walls on both sides of the corridor were not too bright, and the visibility inside was relatively low.

There is only a straight corridor behind the wooden door, and there are five wooden doors on both sides of the corridor. With ultra-high-definition eyesight, Jiang Lai can clearly see that there is another single iron door at the end of the corridor. A seal was posted with a warning and English written on it.That string of English means no entry.

Jiang Lai didn't have any mood to explore. He was very tired now, and he just wanted to have a good sleep and recover his strength.

According to the room number on the key, he searched for his room in the corridor for a while.The number of the room gradually increases from the left, and finally increases back from the right in a serpentine shape. The key to Jiang Shui is room No. [-], which is the innermost room on the right side of the corridor.

He opened the door with a key, and the old wooden door made a harsh sound. Jiang Li saw that there were only two single beds in the room. There was no other furniture or windows, but the size of the room was indeed quite large.

Jiang Lai lay directly on the bed closest to the door. As soon as his head touched the pillow, he immediately fell asleep.

His sleep quality has always been good, and he rarely dreams.But it may be because he was too tired recently, after he fell into a deep sleep, his eyeballs kept rolling, and he had many strange dreams.

As if in a dream, he returned to the hut where he met the chainsaw killer. The pig-faced monster's head had fallen to the ground, and he was standing in the middle of the room dripping with blood, his eyes fixed on him, separated by Even the mask can feel that he is constantly smiling at Jiang Xun...

In the next second, he appeared before entering this weird game world...

At that time, Jiang Shui was on a mission.

He is like a quiet flying insect, silently lurking outside the windows of dozens of buildings, ready to assassinate the target person in the mission.

Jiang Xun was dressed in black and stuck to the glass curtain wall, and there was a tall building below him, but he was not frightened, hiding in the night, patiently waiting for the target to be exposed within the killable range.

Years of professional training made him very sensitive to the dangers of life and death. Just when he saw the target person appearing, a chill came from the back of his head, and he subconsciously rushed into the house.

The sound of the glass shattering gave him hope of life again, but before he had time to bend over to avoid the horrifying coolness, he heard a sharp sound coming from the wind...

As if being hit by a cold bullet again, Jiang Xun suddenly woke up from his deep sleep.

"call……"

He was sweating profusely, panting heavily, seeing himself in an unfamiliar environment, he slowly recalled his previous experiences.

I just finished a game and am resting in a small hotel now.There were no windows in the house, and he didn't know how long he had slept.

It may be because of a nightmare. Jiang Li was sticky all over, sweated a lot, and his clothes were wet and stuck to his body. He just remembered to take a bath, and suddenly remembered that the little fat man said that the bathroom here is public. of.So, Jiang Lai had no choice but to walk out of the door and go to the public bathroom at the other end.

There is only one row of showers in the shared men's bathroom, and there is no shelter in it.After Jiang Lai changed into his slippers at the door and went in, he found that someone else was taking a bath in the corner. Because of the fog in the room, Jiang Lai's excellent eyesight could not see the appearance of that person clearly, and he could only vaguely see the appearance of that person. height.

The man's height was about 1.7 meters and [-], but Jiang Xun somehow felt that the vague figure of this man was very familiar.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Jiang Li stood under the shower closest to the door.When the warm hot water poured down from his head, he forgot about the inexplicably familiar figure from behind, and only felt that every pore in his body was very comfortable now.

Jiang Xun was washing comfortably, and the person standing in the corner turned off the tap, so he should have finished washing.The man's lower body was wrapped in a towel, and he walked in front of Jiang Lai wearing slippers.

Jiang Xun, who was washing his hair, finally saw the man's warm and jade-like face with his slightly opened eyes.

It was the mysterious man who had participated in the game with him before!

The man obviously saw Jiang Li, and he greeted Jiang with a smile: "So it's you, what a coincidence, we met again."

The sound was still as clear as a gurgling stream.

Jiang Xun's action of washing his hair was interrupted by the man's sudden voice. Just as he was about to open his eyes, the shampoo flowed into his eyes along with the sprinkled water.

"hiss!"

In an instant, Jiang Xun's eyes were scorched by the shampoo, and he quickly washed his eyeballs with clean water.

The mysterious man obviously realized that Jiang Lie was startled by his sudden sound.He didn't come over out of politeness, but he still asked Jiang Xun with concern: "Are you okay?"

Jiang Xiaocao rinsed his hair, wrapped it in a towel and turned off the faucet, and walked straight to the mysterious man.

The expression on Jiang Lai's face remained unchanged, he looked at the person in front of him with questioning eyes, and asked coldly, "Coincidence?"

But the mysterious man didn't seem to notice the stern expression on Jiang Li's face.

But he seemed embarrassed to look directly at Jiang Lai's outstanding appearance, lowered his eyes, and replied with a smile: "Yes, I stood at the door of this hotel as soon as I finished the game. I didn't expect to rest here. I can meet you."

Jiang Xun didn't talk to him, and the mysterious man didn't feel the atmosphere was awkward, he just said to himself: "By the way, what's your name, I don't know your name yet. My name is Si Yufeng, the secretary of the judiciary, Yao Shun Yu of Yu, Maple of Maple Leaf."

"Jiang Shui."

Jiang Xun deliberately reported his real name. He carefully observed any slight expression on Si Yufeng's face, trying to see if the person in front of him knew him in the real world.

But Si Yufeng acted as if he had never heard of this name before, the warm smile on his face remained unchanged, and he praised: "Jiang Xun, a good name. I just don't know which two words it is?"

"Shuigongjiang, the rain disperses the sleet."

"It's such a rare word. Let me guess, should it come from Zhang Ruoxu's "Moonlight Night on the Spring River"?" Si Yufeng is a good communicator, and anyone who chats with him will not feel embarrassed, "'Yue According to the flowers and forests are like hail' this sentence?"

"Hmm." Jiang Lai responded coldly, without any excessive words.

Meeting Jiang Xun, a man of few words, even Si Yufeng didn't know how to continue the conversation. Just as the two of them looked at each other in embarrassment, there was a faint sound of a baby laughing from the corner.

"……Hahahaha……"

Both glanced at each other, and it was obvious from the other's questioning eyes that they had heard.

"You heard that too?" Si Yufeng asked Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun nodded: "Yeah." The answer was still only one word.

When encountering this strange phenomenon, Si Yufeng had no relevant experience before.He cautiously walked towards the place where the sound came from, but Jiang Lai did not follow out of caution.

In the bathroom where the mist had dissipated, a thick layer of water mist appeared at some point, making people only vaguely able to see the road under their feet. Obviously, the faucets in the bathroom had been turned off, but there was still water in their ears. From time to time, there was the sound of running water.

"Hee hee hee……!"

The sound of the baby's laughter suddenly approached, as if it was close at hand!

Before he had time to touch any imaginary monster, Si Yufeng stepped on the ground and fell weightlessly into an abyss.

I don't know if Jiang Lai fell down with him unluckily?At the moment of weightlessness, this idea automatically appeared in Si Yufeng's mind.
