Chapter 8 008 Hope 2 (Xie Yixi became the leader of the Taoist Alliance)

Watching the car gradually go away, Li Chengyi stood there. He wanted to catch up, but the meaning in the other person's words made his heart cool down.

That man’s friend and son seemed to have died in a blind spot.

This world seems peaceful, but dangers like blind spots seem to be everywhere.

And what does that person’s last sentence mean?

 Why do you lose the last glimmer of hope by calling the police?

Li Chengyi's thoughts were spinning many times. But they didn't have the slightest clue.

 He picked up his mobile phone and continued to search for information related to blind spots.

The sky is gradually getting darker, and the street lights slowly turn yellow.

 Some students started to go out for a walk in twos and threes with their hands folded.

The shops on both sides of the street lit up one after another, and the halos of various colors illuminated the area extremely brightly.

Li Chengyi has been standing there, frantically searching for information about the blind spot.

 But nothing.

 All information seems to have been blocked and deleted, leaving only some simple disappearance cases circulating on the Internet.

 He put down his cell phone in disappointment and looked up at the sky.

In the sky, the full moon the size of a washbasin hangs quietly in the center, silently.

 ‘There must be some way.’

Li Chengyi looked back at the coffee shop, but did not go back. Instead, he put away his mobile phone and walked towards the bus stop.

 As his trouser legs approached the green belt between the driveway and the sidewalk, a line of clear black writing emerged from the back of his right hand again.

Li Chengyi didn't pay attention and couldn't see it. He kept thinking about the weird underground garage and the weird giant face.

 Intense pressure and panic filled every part of his body. If he hadn't forcibly controlled his body, he might have been shaking with fear.

 Go all the way along the green belt.

Li Chengyi's mind was flashing with various methods that might be able to get him out of the blind spot.

 He was ready to go back and prepare various weapons, knives, alcohol ignition, strong pepper water, etc. After all, it was better than nothing.

 Everything that can be helpful should be used.

 Be prepared to eat and drink, in case you get rid of the monster face but are stuck in a dead corner and cannot get out, you will need to supplement your diet.

There is also a tape player. He was probably playing music through that tape before he entered a dead end.

 So you should put it away as soon as possible after returning.

in addition

'correct! ’ Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed in his heart.

 ‘The pattern on the back of my hand! That pattern looks very mysterious, maybe it can give me some help! ’

 Li Chengyi quickly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.

 He raised his hand, but nothing could be seen on the back of his hand. The pattern needed to be reflected in a mirror to see clearly.

He quickly walked to the display window of a clothing store and looked at the back of his hand through the reflection of the window.

 At this time, the writing on the back of the hand has disappeared, and the previous black pattern has been restored.

 ‘So, how to use this thing? What is the use? ’

Looking at the black pattern on the back of his hand, Li Chengyi thought of a way. He turned on his mobile phone camera and pointed it at the back of his hand.

Sure enough, on the phone screen, the black pattern on the back of the hand was clearly visible.

 It is a flower pattern composed of small black flowers.

They seem to be swaying in the wind, with their overall posture slightly tilted. It's like a black flame burning, beating and deep.

 ‘Perhaps there is a trick? ’ Li Chengyi looked at the black pattern and reached out to touch it carefully, but his fingertips couldn’t feel it at all, as if the pattern didn’t exist.

 ‘Can’t wait any longer, time is running out as time goes by, prepare other things first! ’

Having no idea what the pattern was for, Li Chengyi quickly turned around and trotted towards the bus stop.

 He needs to prepare all the things he needs as quickly as possible.

Even if the middle-aged man said that weapons and other things were useless, he was just a stranger, and his words could not be fully believed.

Without any delay, he got into the car. This time, nothing went wrong. Before it got completely dark, he arrived at the gate of his happy community again.

Rather than go back, he walked along the road outside the community to a chain supermarket on the side of the road and started buying food with a long shelf life.

  I bought a big bag full of compressed biscuits, dried meat, and bottled water.

 In addition, I also bought a folding fruit knife, a pointed kitchen knife for cutting meat, several windproof lighters, filter masks, etc.

 Under the threat of his life, Li Chengyi unleashed a thousand percent execution ability and completed all preparations in only half an hour.

 Then he started to check and fill in the gaps with his mobile phone.

 Finally, I added a small first aid kit, which I bought at a small drugstore next to the supermarket.

 Everything is ready.

 The time has also come to 7:40 in the evening.

Carrying large and small bags, Li Chengyi entered the community and looked at the window on the fifth floor of his house, but there was no light.

 He quickly entered the corridor and pressed the elevator button to go upstairs.

While waiting for the elevator to come down, he was still thinking about the purpose of the black pattern on the back of his right hand.

“Before me, there were definitely people who had made the same preparations as me. If such ordinary and simple preparations could get through the dead end, then those people on the Internet would not be so pessimistic. so.'

Li Chengyi had a feeling in his heart that his real hope of survival might lie in the pattern on the back of his hand.

 But how to discover the function of this pattern, he had no clue at all.

Ding.

 The elevator reaches the first floor.

The door slowly opened, revealing a dark and old space inside.

Li Chengyi was about to go in, when he suddenly looked at the faint dim light, his steps stopped, and he felt a little scared.

He paused for a while, but finally retracted his legs, turned around and rushed up the stairs carrying the things.

 He rushed up to the fourth floor in one breath. Fortunately, he often runs for exercise. Otherwise, carrying more than ten kilograms of things and rushing up to the fourth floor at such a fast speed would probably make most people unable to breathe.

Hook the key and open the door. No one is home. The house with three bedrooms and one living room was dark, with only a little moonlight coming from the living room window and the lights from the houses opposite.

Huh.

Li Chengyi exhaled deeply, put the big bag of things on the floor of the living room, changed his shoes and entered the door.

As soon as he entered the door, he noticed that there were faint traces of dirty footprints on the floor.

 Apparently someone has entered the house without changing their shoes.

 ‘Are you Li Chengjiu’s guest? ’ He speculated in his mind.

Finding a place to sit down and taking a sip of water, he picked up his phone again and used the camera function to carefully study the pattern on the back of his right hand.

  ‘Perhaps a spell is needed? ’

 He began to mumble bits and pieces of random patterns on the pattern.

What Alibaba, Open Sesame, and all kinds of spells have been tried, but the scope is too large and too wide, and there is no response at all.

‘Perhaps it is necessary to shed blood to identify the Lord? ’ All kinds of novel thinking in the previous life have influenced Li Chengyi’s thinking.

 He gritted his teeth, took a knife from the kitchen, lightly pricked the tip of one finger, and dropped a drop of blood on the black pattern.

 It’s a pity that it’s still useless.

 ‘Is it possible to trace it with a pen and draw it? ’ He had another sudden idea.

 Get a piece of white paper and carefully start tracing the pattern with a pencil.

It’s a pity that his technique was so bad that after painting for a long time, he only ended up with a mushy children’s painting.

 Still no response.

Having been busy for a while, the time gradually pointed to half past eight.

 A slight feeling of sleepiness began to well up in Li Chengyi's heart.

 He immediately became alert.

Two times before, he felt sleepy first when he entered a blind spot, and now it happened again. Could it be that it would be the third time soon? ?

His heart was tense, he braced himself, and grabbed the big bag with his hands, fearing that he would not be able to bring it in if it left him.

　　‘If I die, will I travel through time again? ’ A strange thought came to me at this time.

 ‘Those black flowers, I really don’t know where they come from, but they can do such incredible things’

Li Chengyi sighed in his heart. It was the end, and he was strangely less nervous than before.

 This is a very strange feeling, as if my mind is suddenly empty, a lot has been clarified, and my thoughts have become clear quickly.

etc!

 Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed across his heart.

‘The pattern is due to the appearance of the small black flowers, and the reason why I traveled through time is because I came into contact with the black flowers.

 The major I studied in my predecessor was also related to plant conservation. It all involves plants

So this pattern is also related to plants? ’

Once this idea was connected, it quickly occupied all Li Chengyi's thoughts.

 The more he thought about it, the more likely it was that it might be possible.

 “You can give it a try!”

 Immediately, he looked around and saw that there were no plants at all at home.

So he took the bag, changed his shoes and rushed out of the house quickly, ran downstairs from the stairwell, and rushed to the gap between the floors of the community in one breath.

 These gaps are built with simple oval green belts.

 There are small trees, green grass and small flowers inside.

 The outside is simply surrounded by a fence, and a sign is hung to be careful about stepping on flowers and plants.

But Li Chengyi no longer cared about stepping carefully. He turned over and crossed the fence. As soon as his feet touched the lawn in the green belt, his body reacted quickly.

 The black pattern on the back of his right hand quickly twisted and squirmed, turning into a line of clear text.

 ‘Please stay in touch for ten seconds to load. ’

Li Chengyi picked up the camera on his mobile phone and looked at the back of his right hand. This time, he clearly saw this line of text.

 That was the Chinese character he used most in his previous life!

 ‘Sure enough! Sure enough! ’ A numbness like an electric current flashed across his scalp.

 The countdown also began to appear on the back of the hand.

'six. ’

'five. ’

'Four. ’

'three. ’

'two. ’

'one. ’

　　唰.

 In an instant, all the writing disappeared. The black on the back of the hand has once again returned to the previous black pattern.

 The lines of invisible information followed another mysterious method and were instantly transmitted into Li Chengyi's mind.

  ‘Start successfully. ’

Hum!

In an instant, a deep dark fog appeared out of thin air from all directions around him.

 This mist submerged and enveloped Li Chengyi's whole body.

 The surroundings turned into darkness.

'This is.! ? ’ He was a little helpless and stood there without daring to move.

Ding.

There was a clear and reverberating sound, like jade striking a carillon, and it was hard to tell what instrument it was.

 In the dark, far away.

 A tiny bit of purple light slowly emerged, lit up, and came closer.
