escape the nightmare

Chapter 17 The Ancient City

When Lin Feng came out of the outpatient clinic, the sun happened to rise to the highest point in the sky.The sun was so strong that he couldn't keep his eyes open.He covered his forehead with one hand, squinted his eyes and found a random restaurant for lunch.

Although Xiao Shan explained to him in an easy-to-understand way why she could guess everything about him, he still felt something was wrong.

Combined with the address of Xiaodan Clinic - No. 613 Xiangyuan Road, Lin Feng had to think more.

But he didn't choose to ask directly. Firstly, it was the first time they met and they were not familiar with each other. Secondly, it was really impolite to ask like this, instead, he seemed like a crazy person.

Under balance, Lin Feng still kept his doubts in his heart for the time being.

However, Xiao Dan's suggestion does make sense.Maybe he really needs to go out to relax, maybe it's really because he has played too many games and is under too much pressure.

But where is the best place to go?

Lin Feng returned home and turned on the computer. As a senior otaku, he really doesn't know which great rivers and mountains in the motherland are more suitable for curing him.

Right after turning it on, a pop-up window popped up on his email interface.

It belongs to Horror Company.

He just remembered that there is still this crop.It has been a day or two since the date email was sent.These few days he was busy picking up psychological counseling, and there was usually no live broadcast, only the one in the early hours of yesterday, so he didn't look at the computer much at all.He casually clicked on the email, wanting to take a look at it in order to find a tactful reason to prevaricate it.

When he saw the specific content of the email, he suddenly changed his mind.

The content of the email is simple:

Game name: "Yingyan Opera"

Theme: Antique

This game is adapted and created based on the "Yingyan crown" found in the dynasty ruins in the ancient city a month ago.The game roughly tells the story of a woman named Yingyan who died unjustly because of her infamy, and the player's goal is to solve the mystery behind the story, comfort Yingyan's soul, and escape successfully.

The company sincerely invites Mr. Lin to serve as the spokesperson for the first promotion and the first batch of internal test players.In order to allow you to better experience and explain, we have prepared a three-day tour of the ancient city for you, and the location promotion will also be completed at that time.Air tickets and accommodation expenses are fully borne by our company, and your participation is welcome.

We will be honored if you can cooperate with our company.

Sincerely,

salute.

Some people treat guests to travel, and if they don't go, they won't go in vain.

Lin Feng didn't even think about it this time, and typed the word "OK" in the reply.

It seems that Horror Company is very interested in their new game. Not long after Lin Feng sent the reply, the mobile phone next to him rang—it was Xiao Chen from Horror Company.This time they didn't waste any more time, but went straight to the point.Xiao Chen and him finalized the specific time and details of going to the ancient city within a few words.

Xiao Chen told him that a special tour guide would receive him at that time, and gave Lin Feng the tour guide's phone number, and asked him to contact the tour guide directly after he got off the airport.

Horror Company is full of sincerity, and Lin Feng is naturally happy.Speaking of which, this is the first time he has been to the ancient city since he grew up.Lin Feng still has a little expectation after thinking about it.

Considering Xiao Dan's suggestion, Lin Feng decided to set off tomorrow.

In the evening, Lin Feng went to the supermarket to buy some instant food, so that he could take it with him on the road.He has never been in a relationship since Lu Ya, except that he lived in a small dormitory with seven roommates when he was in college. Naturally, he rented a house by himself all the year round, so he had to bring few supplies when he went out. There are very few of them.

Speaking of Lu Ya, talking about the university, he thought of Yang Qun, his former friends in the dormitory of 613, and the life hanging by a thread in the escape.

Lin Feng sighed.He accelerated the speed of packing.He wants to return to normal life sooner.

Now I just hope that the beautiful scenery of the ancient city and the three-day tour can make me forget this unpleasant experience completely.I really can't forget [-]% to [-]%.He really didn't want to be so decadent anymore.

The city where Lin Feng lives is more than 700 kilometers away from the ancient city, about an hour and a half by plane.Lin Feng booked a flight early in the morning. In order not to be late, he got up early to wash up, and set off with two pieces of bread and milk in his mouth.

The flight went very smoothly. Lin Feng took care of work on it for a while, and it arrived in a blink of an eye.

According to the plan, he called the guide when he came out of the airport.From simple communication, I learned that the other party's surname is Ma and he is a local.After the meeting, he realized that Lao Ma was far more enthusiastic than on the phone.

During the talk of Lao Ma all the way, he not only knew what time the people here got up, but also knew how much a cauliflower in the ancient city is now...

Lin Feng felt that if he hadn't arrived at the hotel in time, he would even have known about Lao Ma's glorious deeds from kindergarten to work.

Lin Feng finally checked into the hotel before noon.The hotel was booked by Horror Company, and the environment is naturally good, especially his room. You can directly see the ruins of the imperial city and the surrounding ancient streets by opening the window.The weather is pretty good today, and the sun is not too strong, so the ancient street is full of people, and it looks quite lively.

Lin Feng planned to take a break after lunch and go for a stroll around the area.

To Lin Feng's surprise, the ancient city was not very hot in July. Although the sun was shining brightly, it didn't feel scorching on the body.The outdoor temperature was not too high, and occasionally there would be a gust of cool wind. When the sun went down, Lin Feng still felt a little cold, so he called Lao Ma to borrow a thin coat.

Lin Feng shuttled through the ancient alley.Since the ancient city was officially listed as a national first-class scenic spot, the entire street is very good in terms of public security and sanitation.There are one after another small stalls lined up on both sides of the alley, most of which sell small souvenirs imitated from exhibits in the ancient city.Lin Feng grew up in the city since he was a child. Since his family was in business, everyone couldn't get together for a few days a year, so before working, Lin Feng had never even been out of the city, let alone travel to other places.

This is the first time he has come to the ancient city, and it is also the first time he has experienced this kind of antique trade market.

He found a restaurant with a wine flag with great interest. The people here probably did not use any high-tech advertising methods in order to match the atmosphere of the entire ancient city. They could not even find an electronic sign, and all relied on the shop assistants yelling.

Surrounded by the crowd, Lin Feng finally found a place to sit down.As soon as his butt touched the wooden stool, the waiter immediately came up to him.This restaurant has brought the elements of antiquity to the extreme. Even the waiters are wearing the clothes of the waiter in the ancient shop, with white towels shaking on their shoulders.

The waiter handed the menu to Lin Feng with a smile: "Guest officer, what do you want?"

Lin Feng flipped through the menu.While he was flipping through the menu, the waiter still didn't forget to "insert commercials".

Waiter: "Let me tell you, you came today by coincidence. Today is our third anniversary of opening. Our boss has invited the famous old Mr. Huadan class in the ancient city to perform the famous song "Yingyan Opera" here. See you It’s a tourist, I guarantee you a treat for your eyes and ears!”

The waiter said and pointed to his watch: "The show will start in half an hour."

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows, sketched a few dishes on the menu, nodded with a smile and said thank you.

"Yingyan Opera"?

Lin Feng didn't have much experience in opera, but since he came here, he just came to experience this special folk custom. Anyway, nothing happened for the first day or two.Moreover, Lin Feng vaguely remembered that the new game of Horror Company seemed to be related to this Yingyan or something.

So Lin Feng decided to wait until the show was over before going back to the hotel.

The lights of the entire restaurant dimmed in an instant.The originally noisy lobby suddenly became silent.Lin Feng noticed that everyone around him had put down their chopsticks, and all turned their heads to focus on a big stage in the center.

There are two colorful lights around, and the spotlight hits the center of the stage.Accompanied by the flow of neon lights, a melodious flute sounded slowly from all around the hotel, flowing to every corner of the hotel like a spring of water.Although the sound of the flute is very soothing, even Lin Feng, who is tone-deficient, can hear the sadness contained in it.

Lin Feng couldn't help being fascinated.

"The autumn moon adorns the window with cold light, and at night the warbler sings and ponders

The nine palaces and palaces, Langlang Qiankun locks the infatuated

Infatuated——, infatuated——

The slave is like the bright moon and the cold palace lady, the morning dance and the night sheng are just looking forward to the king.

Mandarin Ducks Flying in the Water, Red Beans and Acacia Lilies Side by Side

Leaning lightly on the jade railing and leaning against the broken bridge, did you ever have a moment of tenderness for this sweet singing?

All night music, Dadan dance, that sleeve of heavenly fragrance, never expected to be so hated

O king—

How could the Weeping Lin and Sad Phoenix let this desolate and lonely soul bear the burden of those tens of thousands of years!

I am not reconciled!Slave weeps——!

what--"

As the music sounded, a danjiao in a costume walked slowly towards the center of the stage on tiptoe.If the waiter hadn't mentioned to Lin Feng that the lead actor was called Ban Lao, he really wouldn't have been able to tell that this charming Dan Jiao was actually a man.As soon as he opened his mouth, there was a heartbreaking libretto.He could switch between long and short, flat and flat, and his melodious singing echoed in the restaurant.Lin Feng couldn't help but feel wronged and sad for the protagonist in the song as he sang interjections one after another.

As Ban Lao sang sadly and sadly, his sleeves were flying in the air.With the wide sleeves flying across the air, accompanied by the singing, there is really a sense of reality that Yingyan herself is crying about her life.

It was the first time that Lin Feng felt the charm of Chinese opera so seriously.

He turned his head and looked around. Everyone was immersed in the performance, and some even took out their mobile phones to record.Lin Feng originally thought that the boss or the performance team would stop it, but he saw that everyone was taking pictures and videos one after another, and no one stopped them. Even the waiter at the side took out his mobile phone and started taking pictures.

It seems that taking pictures and videos is tacitly tolerated in this performance.Lin Feng really felt that this song was sung too well.He couldn't help but want to record a section, so that he could share it with fans during the live broadcast. This can be regarded as helping to advertise this good show, right?So Lin Feng also joined the team who sighed while taking pictures and videos.

Unknowingly, Ban Lao stopped the sound with a sigh, and the thunderous applause was seamless, and the whole restaurant exploded.

Lin Feng heard the people around him whispering, saying that Mr. Ban is indeed a native of the ancient city, and that the "Yingyan Opera" he sang was different from the covers in other places, with charm and authenticity.

Lin Feng nodded in his heart irrefutably, it is true.

When Lin Feng returned to the hotel, it was already very late. Since the entire ancient road was decorated in ancient times and there were not many street lights, there were no pedestrians on the road at this point.The vendors have also closed their stalls. The ancient city at night is completely different from the daytime. Perhaps because of the ruins of the imperial city, it seems a bit too quiet.

After returning to the hotel and taking a shower, Lin Feng felt relaxed all of a sudden, and his mind seemed to be refreshed.

It seems that the single doctor's prescription is still effective.

Thinking about it, Lin Feng unknowingly called out the class teacher's performance recorded in the afternoon, and sat down on the bed wearing headphones to enjoy it again.Although the recording is not as good as the scene, it still contains charm.

When exactly did he fall asleep, Lin Feng himself didn't know.

until he saw someone.

The woman was wearing a colorful embroidered red python robe and a fringed phoenix crown. Her face was covered by beads, and Lin Feng couldn't see her specific appearance.

Under the bead curtain, the woman's bright red lips moved up and down.
