Chapter 19: Cake Shop on West Street

Chen Ye quickened his pace, taking four steps at a time.

His pace did not seem fast, but his figure was like a ghost, and he soon arrived at the entrance of Xining alley.

Along the sidewalk under Longhua Avenue, go west, cross a pedestrian street, and cross the road to Xijiang River.

In the early morning, there were few people, and only a few residents nearby were walking here.

Chen Ye opened the pupil of luck, and the luck aura of most residents was surrounded by a white mist, symbolizing the number of ordinary people.

A few people will have different luck auras flowing around them, or black, or blood-colored... When encountering such auras, you usually have to stay a little further away.

He found that most of the natives with white, black, and blood-colored luck auras had dull eyes and moved as stiffly as puppets.

As if they did not have life.

It was as if they were just replicating the behavior of normal people.

However, the characteristics shown by the erhu old man and the old lady selling chestnuts were completely like a living person.

Chen Ye frowned.

All kinds of strange phenomena... made him feel that the setting of this city was not that simple, and it might be a very difficult dungeon.

Therefore, some of the rules he obtained during the internal test might not be applicable here.

"We need to get more information."

Chen Ye turned on the luck aura and kept a distance from the residents with black and bloody colors at all times.

Although his eyes no longer attracted other people's ridicule, he changed to suona to attract hatred. If he did not take the initiative to provoke death, he would generally not cause himself too much trouble. But he still had to be careful and vigilant. If he met an old lady selling chestnuts again, he would really be unbearable.

Not long after, Chen Ye came to West Street.

The main road of this pedestrian street was paved with marble, and the shops on both sides were decorated brightly and grandly, all using high-end materials.

Before the bloody countdown, this was the most prosperous pedestrian street in the entire Linjiang City, with a high flow of people.

Even in the early morning when the flow of people was low, you could still see a few people sporadically.

At this moment, Chen Ye saw several figures sneaking along the green path on the left side of the street, slowly crawling...

He narrowed his eyes slightly and found that the luck aura above these people's heads was dark.

The center of the aura was empty, and the dark vortex collapsed and fell, as if it was about to fall into an endless abyss and could never get out.

Chen Ye observed carefully and found that these people were crawling towards a cake shop a hundred meters away.

The cake shop is located at the corner of the pedestrian street, with glass painted windows on both sides. Pieces of exquisite and delicious cakes are placed next to the window, looking very tempting.

However, there seems to be no employees in the shop, only warm lights and warm decorations.

It seems that no one is watching.

The figures quietly came to the door of the shop, signaled each other with their eyes, and immediately pushed the door in.

They are well-trained and quick, and their hands quickly reach out to the nearest piece of cake at the door of the shop. One of them stood guard at the door and opened the door so that his teammates could pass quickly. The other two quickly grabbed the cake closest to the door with both hands. As soon as they picked it up, they ran away as fast as they could...

Suddenly, the lights on the top of the cake shop went out, and the glass painted windows on both sides were suddenly covered with thick black fog!

It was early in the morning, but the cake shop seemed to become dark in an instant. From the outside, it was impossible to see what was happening inside.

The young man standing at the door changed his face, his facial features suddenly twisted, as if he saw some extremely terrifying and crazy scenes, his legs softened, and he collapsed to the ground. The next second, he rolled and crawled to the outside of the store, his mouth half opened, and he let out a terrified scream!

However, just halfway through the scream, a tentacle made of black fog suddenly extended from the store and covered the young man's whole body.

The strange black veins covered the young man's entire face, his terrified pupils reflected despair, and his mouth was still trying to grow bigger, making a cry for help.

But unfortunately, the sound stopped just halfway through, and the black mist tentacles had already wrapped his whole body tightly, and entered the store as fast as dragging a dead dog.

Bang!

The door of the cake shop was tightly closed, and there seemed to be a faint chewing sound coming from the store.

Click! Click!

About a minute later...

The glass paintings covering both sides slowly faded, and the warm lights enveloped the cake shop again.

However, the cake shop was no longer empty at this time.

Three young men with stiff faces and empty eyes stood at the door.

They were the three people who tried to steal the cake just now!

However, their clothes were uniformly changed into employee uniforms with white shirts and black ties.

The halo above their heads no longer had any color, but was a void.

Then, the deep black that flowed like ink slowly replaced the void. In the center of the deep black, a bloody strange eye suddenly bulged out, as if it had gained life, as if some new monster was bred inside!

…………

“This cake shop should be a game copy…”

Chen Ye observed with the Eye of Luck and found that the cake shop was shrouded in a thick blood color.

Although there are similar shops on both sides of the pedestrian street, only the cake shop is surrounded by such a thick blood light.

Combined with the current situation…

It is obvious that the three people who went in and tried to steal the cake are most likely new players.

They probably knew each other on the forum, met offline, and formed a small team, intending to keep each other warm and find resources to survive.

Seeing that the cake shop was empty, they thought that as long as they moved quickly enough, they could steal the cake.

However, these shops are actually the most dangerous.

Only powerful ghosts can own real estate, which is their domain!

The natives who own real estate in "Weird Era" can write rules in their own domain. The more powerful the ghost, the more complicated the rules they write.

As long as the rules are violated in the domain, even ghosts with stronger weirdness values ​​will suffer.

Not to mention these three new players who have nothing.

Chen Ye shook his head and turned on the pupil of luck, always paying attention to the dangers around him, and always keeping a certain distance from other ghosts with black and blood-red halos.

Along the way, he walked along the road surrounded by light white mist, without finding any danger, and did not encounter anything special.

Although he did not have the ability to attract hatred with his eyes, Chen Ye tried to walk with his head down, limit his vision, and try not to look at things that he should not look at.

Sometimes, even if there is no [poor gaze], if there is something nearby that should not be seen, if you accidentally take a second look, it will really explode!

Open the bloody phone from time to time to get information from the public screen and forum on it.

Unknowingly, Xijiang appeared in front of Chen Ye.

At the entrance of Xijiang Park, two men in security uniforms stood on both sides of the entrance.

Their faces have strange fish scale patterns, golden vertical pupils, and solemn and serious expressions.

When Chen Ye walked over, a fish scale man turned his head and slowly stretched out a finger.

"Passport..."

"A coin!"
