The light from the street lamps was dim, but in Zhou Haorui's eyes, the Raven Mark on the middle-aged man's right wrist seemed to be burning.
The Raven Seal on his right wrist was also heating up as if it was on fire.
Were they also people saved by the Raven … Did they also suffer from petrification …
Zhou Haorui's heart surged with bewilderment, vigilance, and a hint of excitement. Ever since that night, he had been trapped in that desolate and endless cemetery. No matter where he went, there was only dead silence. It was only now that he saw these two living figures.
At this moment, the young girl leaning against the alley wall also showed her right wrist, the Raven Mark.
They were all looking over. Clearly, they had sensed it, which was why they were showing it.
"Hello, hello …" Zhou Haorui greeted the two of them and made a decision based on what he sensed. He showed the mark on his wrist.
At this moment, the three of them knew each other. It was as though they were all in the same boat.
Even so, they didn't know each other, nor were they familiar with each other. They shouldn't speak of themselves so easily.
It was still the middle-aged man who looked dejected who took the initiative to say, "I'm Jiang Qi. You can call me Old Jiang." The smile on his face was still a little bashful.
Zhou Haorui was about to introduce himself, but when the words came to his mouth, he said, "My name is Zhou Mo." He had to be careful now. How could he know if the other party was really called Jiang Qi? Zhou Mo was his commonly used in-game nickname …
Only the girl was left. She suddenly narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Hello, Yangliu Qingqing."
The night deepened, and the air was very cold. Old Jiang asked, "Do you think anyone else will come?"
"I don't know …" Zhou Haorui really didn't have any thoughts. The traffic on the road outside was decreasing. For a long time, not a single car passed by. The surrounding shops were all closed, and there were no passersby. Everything fell into silence.
He looked up at the top of the lamppost. There was nothing there, but he felt as though there was a crow watching them.
"Do you think …" The girl named Yangliu Qingqing finally couldn't help but say quickly, "Are we going to be rich? It's a supernatural power. As long as we survive this wave, we will be rich, right? "She was in high spirits when it came to being rich.
Old Jiang touched his head and smiled. "To me, having such a change in my life is better than being rich …"
Zhou Haorui could hear the excitement in Old Jiang's voice. Although he was exhausted, he was like a dying dead tree that had a new lease of life.
Perhaps this uncle had been trapped in life for a long time and had no meaning in his life, so the recent changes were not so bad.
However, when he thought about himself, he also felt the same way at the beginning. It was just that after being tortured for 20 days, he almost couldn't take it anymore.
"If we have extraordinary powers," Yangliu Qingqing was still calculating, "Even if we don't do anything, we don't have to do anything bad either. We can just rely on Phecda and get a sum of money. We'll be rich." Her haggard eyes lit up. "What do you think, Zhou Mo?"
"I think …" Zhou Haorui really didn't know what to say. "We should think about how to survive for now."
"What is the point of living?" Yangliu Qingqing smiled and made a money-counting gesture with her fingers. "The greatest joy in my life is to make money, make money, make more money."
Something like a dream? Zhou Haorui didn't say that he wanted to be a hero like Gu Jun and Wu Shiyu. "I want to have some achievements that everyone recognizes … What about you, Old Jiang?"
"As long as it's meaningful and fulfilling." Old Jiang smiled foolishly. "But I agree with you, Zhou Mo. Let's figure out what's going on first."
Yangliu Qingqing straightened her body and said to the two of them, "Then why are you still standing? Come and take a look at the alley. "
Old Jiang went over first, and Zhou Haorui followed carefully. Yangliu Qingqing pointed to the wall that she was leaning against earlier. "Maybe it's just the three of us." The two of them saw three shallow raven marks on the wall of the alley …
Zhou Haorui couldn't help but look at Yangliu Qingqing. He immediately knew that this woman was very meticulous. She was even black-bellied when she said that she wanted to make money.
But if that was the case, she shouldn't have exposed her cautiousness. Now, she couldn't pretend to be stupid …
Zhou Haorui felt that the other party was very scheming, but he knew nothing about it.
"I feel that this is a road sign. We need to go into the alley to take a look." Yangliu Qingqing lifted her feet. "I'm going. Do you want to follow?"
"Okay." Old Jiang nodded and followed.
Zhou Haorui looked into the depths of the alley. There was indeed an inexplicable feeling inside. Seeing the two of them walking away, he also followed.
The alley was very narrow, but it allowed three people to walk side by side. On both sides of the alley were the outer walls of shops and residential buildings, and the light was dim. The three of them walked for more than 20 meters before they sensed the changes happening here. The alley was getting narrower as they walked, and gradually, there was only enough space for two people to walk side by side …
"I've been here before." Zhou Haorui frowned. "I don't remember it being like this. The alleys here are very straight, and they weren't this long …"
Logically speaking, they should have walked out of the alley and reached the other side of the street. However, the surrounding alley walls were still like high walls, and they were getting more and more dilapidated.
Yangliu Qingqing once again displayed her acuity. "Look at our shadows on the wall."
Zhou Haorui and Old Jiang turned to look, and saw that the shadow cast on the wall was still a human figure, but the mouth on the head was protruding out, and it looked like a bird's beak. While they were puzzled, they were surprised to see the black shadow on the wall cast over and covered them.
The three of them exclaimed in shock. Fortunately, other than feeling goosebumps, they did not feel any pain.
Zhou Haorui only felt as if he had put on another set of clothes. In the blink of an eye, he saw that Old Jiang and Yangliu Qingqing had changed their appearances. They were wrapped in a black leather robe from head to toe, wearing a round hat on their heads, and a beak-shaped mask on their faces.
Their beaks were long and pointed, and only their eyes that were hidden deep in the mask could be seen.
'This is … a beak doctor …'
Zhou Haorui looked down at himself. He was also wearing the same black leather, and it became difficult to breathe. His vision was slightly blocked, and it told him that he was also wearing a beak mask.
"The alley has changed," Yangliu Qingqing said again. They saw it too.
The surroundings had become narrower and dilapidated, and the brick walls had turned into stone walls. There were dim oil lamps hanging on the walls. The alley led underground, and after a while, there were a few steps. From the depths of the darkness, there were messy wails that sounded like sobs, and it was as uncomfortable as the stench in the air.
"Why are you guys still standing there? Come with me!"
At this moment, the three of them noticed that there was another beak doctor on the stairs at the bottom of the alley. He was holding a cane and carrying a medical box, and he looked especially tall.
"No matter what kind of misunderstanding, abuse, and banishment you'll suffer in the alley, remember, those people are being tortured by the plague, and you're doctors!"
