[Slow Wear] Assassin System

Zero's gaze

Time passed by every minute, and Chu Heng took another pill after a mutual compromise. Fortunately, the two of them were not unlucky, and Miao Xuan successfully found the last piece of building materials.

At this time, there was only half an hour left before the bus arrived at the station.

While counting the time in his mind, Miao Xuan picked up the big and small bags and Chu Heng: "The task is completed, let's go."

The bone bird jumped from Chu Heng's shoulder and flew into the air. It recorded the location of "home" and saved Miao Xuan the time to explore the way.

Following the guidance of the bone bird, Miao Xuan moved forward quickly. Since the last time the bus left, Miao Xuan had been exercising vigorously for a day and a night, with only a short rest in the middle and a total sleep of no more than two hours. Don't ask him to be thankful that the modeling this time is particularly resistant, otherwise he would not be able to pass this level.

However, the road back to the station is not all smooth sailing. Small monsters are constantly being refreshed in the maze of ghosts and monsters. It is inevitable that it is not as neat as it was at the beginning.

As for Chu Heng——Chu Heng’s blood loss is not a big problem. Yu Zhou still has a can of canned tomatoes. The real trouble is that Chu Heng has taken too many props and pills. Stimulated into a state of madness, and this state cannot be suppressed by mints, it can only be overcome by Chu Heng himself.

Miao Xuan keeps turning in the endless fork, and the bone bird leading the way is flying faster and faster. This is not a good sign, it means that they are running out of time, and as Miao Xuan disposes of another slime, The bone bird suddenly let out a treacherous and ear-piercing long cry.

Chu Heng let out a breath: "Senior...put me down...I heard the sound of flames."

The sound of flames - only when the 24 hours are over, the bus is about to leave, and the service station is about to collapse, will the flames engulf every corner of this place.

Miao Xuan didn't answer, just said: "Hurry up."

Miao Xuan speeded up again, and the bone bird also accelerated with his speed up. This time, even Miao Xuan heard the faint beeping sound behind him. He didn't distract himself from checking the time, but he could guess that the bus must be leaving soon up.

It seems that I still can't catch up...

Miao Xuan quickly calculated all the information known so far in his mind, but he didn't think that the situation in front of him was hopeless.

In addition to the bus, there are other operating mechanisms hidden in this ghost, such as the two buses, and the continuously extending railroad tracks.

Pregnant women Manni and Lu Shili are accompanied by Yu Zhou, and there should be no major problems during this journey, but when they cannot meet, Chu Heng's blood loss cannot be solved, and Chu Heng's physical fitness has to be tested .

Miao Xuan thought this over and over again and followed the bone bird on the way. The bone bird's cry was shrill and rang like a death knell in their ears, and it was rare that this sound was not recorded in the corridor.

After another turn, Miao Xuan finally entered a corridor that went to the bottom together. At this time, he could clearly see the dark exit outside the corridor, which meant that the platform of the bus station was in front of him.

The sound of the flames became louder, and Miao Xuan could even feel the temperature behind him becoming hotter. Chu Heng's breathing became more and more rapid, and he coughed softly, as if he was choked by the smoke in the fire. people.

The raging flames spread crazily in the maze, they climbed out from the corners, the flames stretched against the ground like countless arms, vowing to keep the fleeing humans behind.

Miao Xuan erupted to an unprecedented height, and at this moment he was almost an afterimage, scraping to the fork with the bone bird.

A ray of sky broke through the murderous intent behind him, and the cool wind blew over the platform, completely taking away the heat, and right next to the bus sign on the platform...

A tall and straight man quietly looked in the direction of the labyrinth, his black eyes were dyed red by the sky-high flames, and the wind blew his coat, turning up the blood-stained hem.

Miao Xuan saw himself in the man's field of vision, and he called out the man's name in shock: "Brother Yu?!"

Yu Zhou strode towards Miao Xuan, and he threw his suitcase under the stop sign. He stepped onto Miao Xuan's body in a few steps, and grabbed him into his arms: "Xiao Xuan."

Miao Xuan subconsciously asked: "Why are you waiting here? Didn't you get on the bus? What about Man Ni and Lu Shili?!"

Yu Zhou buried his head in Miao Xuan's shoulder, greedily absorbing the warmth of the skin, he murmured: "If I didn't wait for you, what would they have to do with me? What if... what if you If I stay here, there is no need for me to go out."

Such a frank confession made Miao Xuan feel at a loss. It was only now that he recalled that he had a partner in this world—there were too many dangers in ghosts, and under high pressure, his attention was all on ghosts. traps and ghosts.

Yu Zhou's arms were very strong, but his body was trembling slightly. Miao Xuan let him hold him, feeling a sense of confusion and guilt in his heart.

In this world, not only does Miao Xuan hardly pay attention to the companionship, he also doesn't care much about the dangers related to himself. After all, he has long known that "Xuan Ke" will stay in the ghost beast this time, as long as he can kill the ghost king, he will be fine. question.

But... he was able to leave smoothly, what would Yu Zhou think after he survived?

Miao Xuan didn't know how to answer. He could only listen to Yu Zhou's heartbeat quietly. When Yu Zhou's trembling gradually calmed down, he lined up behind Yu Zhou: "Then we are going to take the bus next. Well, this labyrinth service station...well, it's burned out."

The service station no longer exists, and all that remains is the darkness and the bus platform floating in the darkness. Under the solitary bus stop sign is a line of railroad tracks that flow into the darkness, and there are only three people left on the bus platform.

As early as the moment Miao Xuan stepped out of the maze, Chu Heng had already slid down from his back. He supported his big shell and managed to stand firm on the platform. At that time, he subconsciously moved his eyes away.

At this time, Yu Zhou was finally willing to give his teammate some attention. He reluctantly let go of his lover, and said to Chu Heng, "Did you lose a lot of blood? Sorry, I'm going to get the props now."

Yu Zhou turned back to the bus stop, picked up the small suitcase, and quickly found a can of 26 grams of tomato: "The only buses we can take are No. [-] and No. [-], and according to our According to the previous analysis, the first choice is the [-]th road."

"Then integrate the existing props and prepare to board the Eleventh Road." Chu Heng took the tomato can, took out a knife and opened the can, revealing the bright red and sweet flesh in the aluminum can. Eat the tomatoes.

Miao Xuan was already looking through his backpack: "This time, the little monster in the maze dropped food. I got a lot of compressed biscuits and purified water. It's no problem not to use the supplies from the bus... This lunch box also takes up too much space."

Yu Zhou also squatted down and opened the small suitcase: "You can keep three lunch boxes in your backpack, and put the rest with me. The food drops I got can make up four single servings."

After Chu Heng finished eating the canned food, this tomato smelled like cow's blood and sheep's blood, but it really restored his physical strength very well, and his blood loss symptoms have disappeared.

Chu Heng weighed the big shell: "I replaced the tire with a small shelter, and the food I got was too little, only one compressed biscuit and two bottles of water."

"I still have a lot more here, I have seven single-person copies." Miao Xuan lightened his backpack again, "It seems that the appearance of the maze is indeed a sign of the maturity of another road, otherwise our supplies will be insufficient .”

Chu Heng took the food: "It is still necessary to save food, and we need to consider the situation that we will not be able to get food tomorrow."

Yu Zhou has already packed his suitcase: "Yes, we have to wait for the bus next, do you need sleep?"

"Senior needs it!" Chu Heng said immediately, "Senior, have you been exercising vigorously for a day and a night?"

"It's the same with you, your mental state is not good." Miao Xuan looked at a No. 62 bus roaring on the railway tracks, "We can't judge the frequency of the No. [-] bus, Brother Yu, sorry for the night watch. "

Yu Zhou smiled: "Well, leave it to me."

-----

After three hours of dormancy, the No. [-] bus arrived at the station, and the three boarded the white and green bus one after another.

The layout inside the car is old but tidy, and the driver’s seat is still empty. The rows of seats are similar to the seats of the bus, with ten rows and four rows, but this time there are no seat belts on the seats, which is full of excitement. Feeling insecure.

The three chose to sit in front-to-back seats. There were no rules on the bus, but a simple sign "Passengers do not sit" was posted on the driver's seat.

Maybe that's the only rule on the bus.

After the three people got on the bus, the bus started slowly. Unlike the bus that went directly to the sky, the route of the bus emphasized a "simple" way, driving steadily on the rails all the way, although it was often dark, but occasionally Bright street lights will appear, and light and shadow will be projected through the windows near the interior of the car, illuminating the three passengers in it.

Miao Xuan looked up at the street lights, and couldn't help being a little distracted. The atmosphere along the way was so peaceful that it was as if they were not in a ghost, but in a peaceful outside world, but the bus drove into a real tunnel.

Chu Heng was sitting right in front of Miao Xuan, with the huge shell on his back, which looked a little funny under the projection of the light.

Yu Zhou is behind Miao Xuan, as long as Miao Xuan turns his head, he can see him... and his eyes locked on his lover.

The bus drove on the railway for 10 minutes. When the street lights came on again, Miao Xuan saw a small platform not far away. The three of them stood up almost at the same time. Immediately afterwards, the bus slowed down accordingly. , slowly stopped on the platform.

Chu Heng: "Can't we get down?"

Miao Xuan made a decisive decision: "Next, there is a breakpoint on the eleventh road, and the breakpoint should be here."

Now that the decision had been made, the three of them immediately got off the bus, with Yu Zhou at the end. As soon as he stepped onto the concrete platform, the No. [-] bus immediately closed the door and disappeared without a trace.

"This is not a bus stop..." Miao Xuan observed the small concrete platform, and he read the handwritten chalk writing on the ground, "This is... a rest stop?"

The chalk characters are round and naive, written with white chalk on the black concrete floor, it looks like it was written by a child, and I don't know what the so-called "rest stop" has to do with the bus service station.

Chu Heng squatted down to distinguish the material of the chalk: "Do you want to wait here for the bus?"

"It shouldn't be possible." Yu Zhou took out a small notebook to transcribe the handwriting again, "We probably have to go to the next platform."

In front of the concrete platform is a fixed rail, but there is an extra passage beside the rail for people to walk on. The width is about enough for two people to walk side by side. The concrete floor has iron handrails beside it.

Yu Zhou squeezed a ball of paper and threw it on the passage. The ball bounced on the ground a few times without any accident.

Seeing this, Miao Xuan put down his backpack, supported the concrete platform with one hand to lower himself, and stood steadily on this passage: "There is only one way to go, let's go."

The frequency of the bus is still unknown to the three of them. Without further ado, the three of them set foot on this cement road together. The street lights are very thoughtfully lit on the side of the road. It is not so much a street light as it is a searchlight. They are so bright that they illuminate every detail of the cement road.

It's just that even such a bright light is just a small blur in the darkness, which cannot penetrate into the boundless darkness.

Miao Xuan walked first, Yu Zhou followed him closely, and Chu Heng was behind. The night along the way was dead and peaceful, and Yu Zhou simply began to ask the other two in detail about the difficulties they encountered in the maze.

The three of them walked and chatted all the way like this, and after another two hours, they encountered a concrete platform that seemed familiar to them.

This cement platform is not much different from the previous one, except that there is an additional line of writing under the chalk writing: "The next rest stop, the bus passes by."

Chu Heng was suspicious: "...do you think it's feasible?"

Yu Zhou thought for a while: "If you only look at the operation of the No. [-] bus, I think this sentence should be credible."

"Then the bus route is too different from the hotel bus." Miao Xuan couldn't help but said, "Is the hotel bus not prepared to give people a way out?"

Chu Heng made a conclusion: "So we chose this path well."

The three jumped off the platform and continued to move forward, but the street lights no longer followed each other, the distance between them became larger, and some areas were completely plunged into darkness, requiring the three of them to hold on to tools and fumble for the iron railings to move forward.

The order of the three has also changed, this time Yu Zhou is the first, Miao Xuan is the second, and Chu Heng is the third.

The casual chat continued, and this time it was Yu Zhou's turn to share his experience of studying abroad in France, and the topic inexplicably turned to French cuisine.

The three people who can only eat compressed biscuits have only such a poor consolation.

Yu Zhou's voice was deep and pleasant, especially clear in the dim light.

"...The sauce is a very important part. I personally think the best sauce I have ever eaten is the red wine sauce in a cafe outside the university. Generally speaking, red wine goes with red meat, and white wine goes with white meat, but that The store served scallops with red wine sauce, and speaking of which, I even drew a still life related to this, and I haven’t shown it to you—”

Yu Zhou's voice stopped suddenly, and he stopped at the same time. Miao Xuan was about to bump into Yu Zhou's back. He raised his head in surprise, but saw Yu Zhou standing under the searchlight and staring blankly. holding his hand.

What's going on here?

Miao Xuan was puzzled and said, "Brother Yu, let's go."

Yu Zhou turned around abruptly, he stared blankly at Miao Xuan, as if distracted: "Xiao Xuan, there is no bus here."

Of course there are no vehicles here, at least we have to go to the next rest stop.

Before Miao Xuan could say anything, Yu Zhou suddenly walked up to him and hugged him tightly—Miao Xuan was very used to Yu Zhou's hugs, but this time it was different from the usual hugs before. It's a little different, this time Yu Zhou used extra force, and for some reason, his movements were a little clumsy.

Miao Xuan smiled helplessly: "Brother Yu, stop making trouble, we have to find the rest stop quickly, let's go."

Yu Zhou slowly let go of his arms. He raised his head and stared at Miao Xuan with deep eyes. He seemed a little dazed at first, but as the light changed as he raised his head, the light gradually illuminated his eyes, reflecting the Miao Xuan's shadow.

At this moment, the sky above Miao Xuan's consciousness trembled slightly.

Yu Zhou murmured: "It's strange, I just seemed to..."

It was as if something had been "squeezed" into his body, but he knew it was harmless, that it was even a part of himself.

"What's wrong?" Miao Xuan suddenly became vigilant. Although his intuition didn't warn, the danger in the ghost was elusive. "Did you notice something?"

"No, it's nothing..." Yu Zhou stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, then smiled, "Probably because of a sudden distraction, I feel very good now."
