"呲-"
The orange-red flames jumped up suddenly in the darkness, and the gentle warm light spread out in all directions, and all the objects in the room instantly folded blurred light and shadow on the walls and the ground.
Li Xin leaned against the ground and brought the burning match closer, letting the flames lick the candle wick.
With a very subtle "snap" sound, a drop of translucent candle tears rolled onto the dusty ground, and a thin layer of film condensed when it landed. Li Xin immediately put the whole candle on the pestle and used the semi-dry wax oil to stabilize it.
With a little light, Li Xin's eyes immediately followed the light.
The large round table in the center of the room was removed, revealing a slit that was several inches long like a thin crack. Under the illumination of the candle, a small keyhole appeared on the side of the slit.
Li Xin leaned over and pulled out the necklace from her neck—the one that Ms. Du left to her.
The photo was protected by two golden circles of metal closed together, dangling in the middle of a chain.
After fiddling a few times, Li Xin pulled out a small long-handled key from the side of the necklace.
The keyhole turns and opens with a "click".
Li Xin took back the key, changed his position, clasped the slit with both hands, and pulled it up, and a dark and narrow entrance was exposed along with the raised slate.
Li Xin got up and jumped in with a slight bow.
This small basement of two or three square meters was dug by some of her bodyguards when Ms. Du first arrived. It has been used for many years to store the food and water she received every month, as well as valuables such as coins that Ms. Du brought in from outside. thing.
In the silent night, the wind whimpered through the dilapidated and old city.
In the dark building complex, there seemed to be a faint light rising from a window somewhere, and it returned to silence in an instant.
As soon as she took out the candle, she was about to put it out.
At this moment, Li Xin was squatting in the small kitchen on the first floor, sitting on a small wooden stool with a bowl of instant noodles, with a can of cabbage at her feet.
Instant noodles are a rare thing in 3197, and Ms. Du can get one or two buckets a month. It's just that she doesn't like to eat, some have exchanged other things with others, and the rest are piled up in the basement.
It was inconvenient to light the fire at night, so Li Xin soaked the noodles in cold water and stuffed it into her stomach.
Ten minutes later, Li Xin, who was holding a bucket in his left hand and a large bag of canned rice noodles in his right hand, jumped out of the window and returned the same way he came.
The tireless wind and sand will perfectly clean the traces of all night-timers.
By the time Li Xin returned to her cabin, a fish-mammed white had already appeared in the sky.
Turning back to the wooden house, Li Xin put away the things she brought back, and leaned on the wooden bed tiredly and rubbed her brows.
The thin and slender girl tucked her knees and folded her clothes on the head of the bed, some messy black hair was loose, pursed her lips, her long crow-feather-like eyelashes drooped down and slowly fluttered, and her tender white face had a haggard look.
The whole person looks extraordinarily weak and petite and pitiful.
Li Xin sat for a while, poured herself a glass of water, then turned around and picked up the sensor to play the game.
"Di - server start - protection system activated."
"Welcome player [Jiuqi] back to the Wonderland, and wish you a happy game."
Before opening her eyes, Li Xin's scalp felt numb due to the sudden sense of weightlessness and dangling, and she hurriedly held her head with both hands and rolled herself into a spherical shape—“Bang”.
"Player is injured, health -200."
Li Xin: "..."
Taking a long breath, Li Xin resignedly took out a small medicine and put it in her mouth to ease the pain that her internal organs were about to spit out.
Alas, misguided.
Usually, from the experience of later life, it is relatively safe to go offline in the wild for the night, find some branches and vines for yourself, build a bird's nest-like shelter in the position of the tall branches, and then disconnect.
One is to avoid the snakes, insects, rats and ants on the ground, the other is to be relatively concealed, and the third is that large monsters cannot come up.
However, she forgot for a while that this was a wild boar forest, and the wild boars have a big hobby of shoveling trees and grinding their teeth...
The tree fell, and Li Xin's offline point was defaulted to mid-air by the system.
When the blood bar was full, Li Xin got up expressionlessly and carried the axe to continue walking deep into the woods.
Just take the title of "Wild Boar Killer", she thought silently in her heart.
