In the darkness, Chen An couldn't see anything at all. He could only endure the fear of the unknown, the torture of pain and the dry and hoarse voice that was about to smoke, and quietly listened to the man's words.

If he is the third weird being that can affect people's emotions...

It was impossible to resist at all.

The candlelight had been thrown on top when the man pulled them down.

Otherwise, if the lamp oil is sunk into the soil, the last "red" color will disappear.

However, what made Chen An feel a little relieved was that...for some reason, after coming underground, the cold and corrosive feeling disappeared.

"Erosion seems to come with the mountain wind. Is wind the medium of cold erosion?"

Chen An made a guess.

At this time, the hoarse and low male voice sounded again.

"Are you... thirsty?"

Chen An was shocked and said hoarsely: "Yes... I haven't drank water for a long time."

In the darkness, Chen An vaguely saw a vague shadow shaking. Suddenly, a piece of light bloomed, illuminating the surrounding appearance.

It was a dim oil lamp with oil stains and an old lampshade, and the orange flame inside shone softly.

At this moment, the surrounding scenery also came into Chen An's eyes.

Here... it seems to be a basement, surrounded by wooden pillars used to support the structure. Next to it are messy storage boxes, tools covered with cobwebs, weeds, and some messy newspapers and posters.

What made Chen An's breathing almost stop was the true appearance of the man in front of him.

It was a twisted and bloated body...

The man's generous body was wrapped in a thick dark gray rag, which was covered with mud. His body was swollen like a fat old tree root. The body under the rag was bloated, and his belly was bigger than

Pregnant women are still big.

Chen An couldn't see clearly the lower half of his body. The man seemed to be sitting cross-legged on the ground, but the legs covered by his pants looked like the tentacles of an old tree, entwined together, revealing brown and wrinkled skin, making him look old and strange.

On the man's face, under the long hair that was messy and seaweed, was a chin covered with ulcerated red spots. It was covered with small black pits, and tiny tentacles emerged from the pits, squirming slightly.

The face that can still be distinguished looks like he is in his forties or fifties, which is similar to what he had guessed at the beginning.

I saw the man stretching out his arms that were as dry as tree bark and swollen and somewhat fat, lit the oil lamp, then twisted behind his back in an anti-human way, and took out a bottle of filthy water.

A plastic water bottle covered with dirt was thrown in front of Chen An, with dust floating in the water inside shaking slightly.

"You can drink it...don't dislike it."

The man grinned, as if trying to show a kind smile.

But under his ferocious and ugly face, this move could only make Chen An feel creepy.

Just when he was still hesitating whether to drink the water or not.

Yin Qiaoxian came over from behind.

Her body was also covered with mud, and combined with the previous dirt, she was dirty, and her shoulder-length hair was messy.

She directly picked up the water bottle, opened it and smelled it. Her little nose wrinkled slightly, but she still drank it.

After drinking half the bottle in one breath, she handed it to Chen An.

"Well, don't dislike it now. Survival is the most important thing."

"Aren't you afraid of him poisoning or something?" Chen An whispered.

Yin Qiaoxian glanced at the man and shook his head: "Do you think he would need to go to such trouble if he wanted to kill you and me?"

Chen An was choked and could only sigh inwardly and took the water.

The muddy-smelling water poured into the throat. Even though the stench was unpleasant, it relieved some of the discomfort in the throat.

"You two..." The man's huge body blocked the door. Seeing that both of them had drank water, he slowly said: "Can you... do me a favor?"

"What are you busy with?" Chen An coughed twice, but his throat was still a little uncomfortable.

He looked at Yin Qiaoxian aside and found that this girl was a little silent, with no expression on her face.

"I hope... you can save my daughter..." The man choked, "No... or... or... find her..."

"I...I lost her..."

The man's tone went from low and hoarse to choked, and by the end, his eyes were red and his tone was trembling.

At this moment, a strong emotion of sadness and despair emanated from the man's body. This emotion also made Chen An's head feel painful.

Feeling that he was being guided by his emotions, and with the lessons learned from the previous experience in the temple, Chen An quickly realized it, and worked hard to keep himself calm, calm, cool, and calm.

"What...is your name?"

Even so, Chen An knew that the man's words must continue... because this is the survival law of the story world and the source of the strange rules in the mountains and forests. It is a story, a story!

The man is a monster in the forest, and his story must have clues.

You can definitely help Chen An and Yin Qiaoxian restore the story and find a way to break the situation...

"My name?" The man was suddenly stunned, and then looked like he was thinking.

"It should be... called... Xue Qisong."

Just as the man finished speaking, Yin Qiaoxian beside him suddenly trembled.

Her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her little hands to prevent herself from screaming.

Chen An also noticed the strange behavior of Yin Qiaoxian, and thoughts flashed through his mind.

Yin Qiaoxian...know this man?

Why?

Have you been a player before?

Did we know each other in the real world before?

But the story world is a story world, what does it have to do with the real world?

All kinds of questions are running through Chen An's mind. There are too few clues now, so he can only accumulate them temporarily.

"How can we help you?" Chen An asked.

Xue Qisong was silent for a moment, and then said bitterly: "I don't know either..."

Chen An was also stunned. He smiled bitterly and said, "You don't know what to do, so what should we do?"

"Or... you tell us what you know and we will analyze it for you?"

Xue Qisong nodded.

He said: "Twenty minutes, I can only stay here for twenty minutes."

This sudden and meaningless sentence made Chen An a little confused.

What twenty minutes?

The man stretched out his thick arm and pointed to the top of his head.

"The villagers... will come here."

"Why? We're not underground?"

"You...have been [marked]."

"mark?"

"Yes... no matter where you are, they will come. Escape... is useless..."

Chen An was silent.

Yin Qiaoxian on the side seemed to have come back to her senses. She looked at Xue Qisong with complicated eyes and said: "There are still twenty minutes, please tell your story first."

"If we can help you, isn't it also okay if you help us escape?"

The man shook his head: "Water, exchange, help. Escape, can't be done, evolution is not enough."

"Evolution?" Chen An wondered, does this refer to the power that shuttles through the soil?

He calls it "evolution"...

"Let's tell the story first."

Yin Qiaoxian was a little irritable, so she urged her hastily.

Chen An glanced at this girl, why did he feel that she was so anxious?

The story clues are very important and understandable.

But after the man said his name, Yin Qiao Xian, something didn't feel right.

Chen An looked at the three-meter-tall monster in front of him, and then at Yin Qiaoxian, who was less than 1.6 meters tall.

What is the connection between the two of them?
