Southwest of G Province, Zhuxi County.

The sky is bright, and the moist morning mist surrounds the mountains, sprinkles dew on the green plants, and then explores along the deep forest valleys, and you can find a small Miao village located under the mountains.In front of the hidden gate, there is also a stele with three big red characters "Xiejiao Village" on it.

Meng Yan was lying on the hard bed in the village, dripping with cold sweat, and was haunted by nightmares.

Congratulations, you have passed the initial test and successfully connected to the ark, and other members are logging in...

The potential value is estimated to be 10, the captain's authority has been bound, and your in-game video will be saved.

It is detected as a survival copy, and your team members have been implanted with virtual memories and identities, please lead them to live.

The eye of reason is upon you.

The young man suddenly opened his eyes. He was not fully conscious yet, but his body first put on a posture to meet the enemy, apparently hearing someone talking.

A few seconds later, Meng Yancai sat back on the bed again, muttering to himself, "Damn, is the world so mysterious..."

Not long ago, he was lying on the hospital bed waiting to die, so why did he come here when he opened his eyes again?

He clearly remembered what happened after his death. When his heart stopped beating completely, a light appeared inexplicably in front of him.He walked along the light, suddenly felt a sense of falling, and then found himself sitting in a tricycle.

As soon as he came back to his senses, he was washed down the mountain by a mudslide and almost died again.

Maybe this is the so-called "first test"...

Not only that, but there was an inexplicable extra memory in his mind.

The "self" in my memory was entrusted by my uncle, Professor Meng, to go to Province G with a few students from the Folklore Department of Capital University to help collect data on settlements in the Miao Autonomous Region.But what I didn't expect was that when I got off the train and transferred to three rounds, and entered the inaccessible mountain, I encountered landslides and torrents caused by overnight heavy rain one after another.

"I don't have an uncle at all, can you make it more rigorous?"

After Meng Yan recalled, he found that the words he heard before were still in his sight, like a rolling announcement.This made him have to study the extra things in front of him that made him unbelievable.

There is a character portrait in the upper left corner of the field of vision, which is impressively his own appearance, and there is a short blue bar with a scale next to the portrait.In addition, there are many gray locked icons, which look a lot like the game interface.

On the right side, two lines of bright red words floated.

This is a primary potential competition, there is no task requirement, the condition to end the competition is to successfully survive the danger for eight days

Countdown to Survival 07:23:43

This line of words is still decreasing with the passage of time, and he understands that it means 23 hours in seven days.

"You might as well let me die, why bother me?" Meng Yan stretched his waist, "I'm honestly lying on the hospital bed, and I don't have a computer to give me yesorno, and I don't want to know what the true meaning of life is. "

"I haven't pushed the door, and I haven't watched the horror video. No matter how you look at it, I'm not the type chosen by this kind of stuff, right?"

Meng Yan felt that he might be bound by something inexplicable like in a fantasy story.But he didn't take the death threat to heart, he just thought he had an extra annoying system.

you can call me ark terminal

"No, you are the system."

……

Meng Yan ignored the voice talking to him in his head.

He's receptive to his resurrection - even a little curious.

He will not be ecstatic or hysterical, he just accepts this fact flatly, and then lives with the flow.

Meng Yan washed his face in the sink in the room, and left the room with the small panpipe hanging on the chair.He found that the door was very high from the ground, and the room was actually a building on stilts.

Meng Yan leaned against the door frame without any surprise, and played the pan flute so that ghosts and wolves howled, forcing the others in the room to wake up.

A series of footsteps interrupted his urinating Xiao Yin.

Meng Yan looked up and found that there were three men and one woman, and knew that they were his "teammates".

He didn't recognize his life, instead, he continued to act according to the character, and said with a smile, "I finally woke up. You guys slept for three days. If you don't wake up again, I don't know how to explain to my uncle."

After listening to Meng Yan's words, the teammates gradually recalled what happened, and all of them looked solemn.

I wanted to take advantage of the summer vacation to gather with the professor, but the professor has something to do temporarily, so he will be free next week.So I arranged for my nephew Meng Yan to lead the team and set off first.

Who could have predicted this would happen...

"Brother Meng, it's lucky to have you." One of the fat men patted his forehead and said in a muffled voice.

The fat man still remembered that this fierce man pulled them out of the mud one by one, and carried them back to a safe place one by one, his face was bloodless from the heavy rain.After hearing the sound of the villagers rushing over, the frightened young people dared to faint, including Meng Yan who was physically exhausted to the limit.

Meng Yan joked, "It's okay, just pay me when you go back."

Looking at it this way, this group of people was implanted with false identities as the system said.But the difference between them and Meng Yan is that Meng Yan has previous memories, but these people really think that they are students.

Maybe you can't see the various announcements and buttons in your field of vision.

Why did the system ask him to protect these people?

"Speaking of it." The only girl among them said, "Brother Meng, we are also in trouble together, don't we still need a formal self-introduction?"

She is tall and tall, with a very outstanding temperament, coupled with a slightly mature face, she does not have a bookish atmosphere that belongs to a student at all.

"That's right, let's get to know each other first." Meng Yan felt that she looked familiar, as if she had seen it on TV.

The girl smiled generously, but she couldn't hide her weakness after sleeping for a few days.

"My name is Lin Manshu." She shook hands with Meng Yan, and after speaking, she glanced at the unbuttonable Miao mandarin jacket on Meng Yan's body, "It's quite predictable."

Meng Yan pretended to cover his chest, "Look at the handsome guy's fee."

Seeing that the team leader was not as serious as Professor Meng, and with Lin Manshu's introduction, the remaining three people also spoke out one after another.

"I'm Wang Bowen. Brother Meng, what do you want to eat in the future? Fatty, I'll pat my chest and find you the most authentic restaurant immediately." Wang Bowen slammed his chest impassionedly, and in the end, he coughed and wheezed within two strokes. Physical fitness was assessed.

There is a big difference in age between the remaining two boys, one has a baby face, the other is tall and thin, especially the thin one, who looks almost thirty.Meng Yan also wondered why this person was set as a folklore learner instead of a programmer.

Neither of them seemed very talkative, as if they were still in shock.But out of politeness, they still named them.

"Li Qing."

"Lu Ren."

None of these people look like students, and they can tell something is wrong when they look in the mirror...

Because it was really funny, Meng Yan decided to give the system a face, not to treat them as members of society, but to really treat them as students.

"Hey, isn't that right?" Wang Bowen was taken aback suddenly. "Why is there still a shortage of someone? I remember we have six in a car."

Before anyone could respond, Fatty suddenly remembered something, "Yes, Senior Ruishen, what about others?"

Everyone searched in the house, but they still couldn't find the sixth teammate. They only found the note left by Ruishen in the living room.

"Oh, the senior went to help Aunt Li, the person who took us in, so don't worry about it."

Now Xiejiao Village is in the busy season of farming. Every household grows sugarcane, but thanks to the small area, otherwise the watering will be tiring.The owner of this house on stilts is no exception.

Aunt Li has one son and two daughters, but they both went to work in the county, so there are only three vacant rooms in the family, which can accommodate six people.

Wang Bowen said, "Let's go to the field to find Aunt Li and thank her."

Meng Yan saw that Wang Bowen's lips were very pale and his face was very pale, so he knew that this was the sequelae of shock and coma.

He paused, "You still need to rest. Forget it, don't look for other people, go back to the house and lie down, and I will bring it in for you when it's meal time."

Wang Bowen pretended to be shy, "Don't do it, it's not disabled, it's too much trouble for Brother Meng."

"You've been bothering me since you fell in the mud. Come on, I'll sleep with you today."

Wang Bowen pointed to himself, "Sleep with me?"

He weighed one hundred and ninety-nine and was tall. Although he was nicknamed chubby, he was really big and sweated a lot at night.How hard is it to sleep with him?

"Yes, there are three guest bedrooms in this room, and you are the only one who dominates the single room. Manshu doesn't have this kind of treatment, so you are so beautiful." Meng Yan happily patted Wang Bowen on the shoulder, "The team leader will provide 24-hour personal protection, isn't it good?"

Wang Bowen should refute, after all, he is bigger and bigger than Meng Yan, but thinking of Meng Yan walking like flying in the jungle with his two hundred catties of meat on his back on a rainy night, he felt as quiet as a chicken.

After chatting for a while, Meng Yan asked everyone to take care of their bodies first, and then discuss the topic of leaving tomorrow, and then drove these pale sick patients back to the room.

To be idle is to be idle. Meng Yan, in a place where he is unfamiliar with life and does not know whether it is illusion or reality, will inevitably treat his compatriots better, especially his own people.

He personally went to the back mountain to get two pheasants, and used a large stove to cook a meal for the sick patients. When everyone recovered after eating two full meals, it was faintly dark.

Aunt Li hadn't come back yet, Meng Yan was bored, and caught fish by the river after dinner. Seeing that the weather was bad, she also planned to go back to Wang Bowen's room.

rustling rustling-

Just as Meng Yan was about to leave, the shrub leaves made the sound of being collided. The keen leader caught the abnormal sound at once. He didn't turn his head, but aimed it from the corner of his eye.

A gray-haired old lady in Miao clothes was squatting in the grass not far away, staring straight at herself.

Meng Yan was not frightened, he decided to ignore the other party out of the virtue of not disturbing others.

In just a short while, it was completely dark.

But Meng Yan was very familiar with such an environment, he was not afraid, but returned to the ladder from memory, and climbed up calmly.

When he returned to Wang Bowen's house, he frowned, because he didn't know if the old lady was still squatting in the grass.It's getting so dark, what if something bad happens?

The night in Xiejiao Village is not ordinary.

If Diagonal Village is picturesque during the day, it is enough to make a coward shiver at night.

Because there are no electrical appliances, the dark night here really reflects what it means to be invisible. Once you get used to this extremely quiet environment, you will feel too noisy again.

The sound of the rustling wind is like the howling of human beings, especially there are many caves here, and there is one on the opposite mountain, which makes a whistling sound when the wind blows, and is nicknamed the Weeping Cave by the villagers.The sound of unknown animals running through the grass is also very prominent. In an environment without visible light, it is easy to scare yourself and imagine what the thing passing the house is.

Since he dared to come out so late, the old people in the village should have gotten used to it long ago, and they might have gone home by now.

Meng Yan stopped being entangled, and turned to chat with Wang Bowen.

Wang Bowen had been waiting for Meng Yan for a long time, as if welcoming the emperor back to his bedroom, even the bed was made for him.

Meng Yan waved his hand, "You sleep on the bed, I'll just sleep on the floor."

Fatty refused, and the two wrangled for a while, and it ended in Meng Yan's victory.

One of the two was weak, and the other fell asleep soon after a hard day and lack of light.

late at night.

tuk tuk-

tuk tuk tuk-

Meng Yan was woken up by the strange noise. He was sleeping soundly, rubbing his eyes in half-annoyance, frowning and listening carefully to the source of the sound.

In an instant, he was awake.

It sounded like knocking on a door, right under him!

Meng Yan jumped up immediately and grabbed the copper candlestick on the table.The first thing he thought of was the old lady from before, but when he thought about it carefully, he immediately realized something was wrong.

Aunt Li’s stilted building is very high. He is 1.8 meters six, and he can only reach the top by raising his hand while standing under the house, but the old lady is less than 1.6 meters.

As if sensing Meng Yan's awakening, the voice disappeared immediately.

Just when he thought this person had given up, there was a sudden crash under his feet.

"Damn it." Meng Yan was so surprised that he cursed in his heart.

thump-thump-

This movement is not small, there are no stones near the stilted building, and the stones by the stream need to be moved, and the interval between the sounds will not be so short.There may be only one way to make this kind of thumping sound that keeps ringing regularly in place...

This thing was jumping high, hitting the floor under Meng Yan's feet with its head.

What the hell?The panic in Meng Yan's heart gradually turned into surprise, because the movement was a bit too loud, and if the opponent kept using such force, his neck would definitely be broken.If it is a normal person, it should be bloody by now.

Meng Yan found a match from the drawer in the dark, and then lit the copper candlestick. The jumping fire light illuminated the room flickeringly, making it even more eerie.

He looked back at Wang Bowen, this guy slept like a dead pig, he didn't feel anything wrong at all!

Meng Yan didn't want to scare the fat man anymore, so he just stared at the floor by himself.Gradually, the impact sound also disappeared, and Meng Yan wondered if this thing knocked him out of the concussion and made him faint.

But things were not as simple as he thought. Less than half a minute later, strange noises sounded around again.

thump thump thump thump thump——

But this time, the thing that made the sound did not give up, and was persistently trying to get closer, and the location of the sound was not very good.

The ladder of this stilted building is not placed in the middle of the door, but on the side. There is an aisle outside the door, which can lead to the ladder.But the room he was in happened to be on the side of the stilted building, that is to say, the ladder was placed outside his window.

And that strange sound was the sound of a person climbing the stairs. The reason why it continued continuously was because the person couldn't climb up, and would slide down every three or four steps, and then continued to climb up persistently.

Someone was trying to crawl into his house.

This person is definitely not Aunt Li who came home, the voice is very heavy, like a man's movement, and how could Aunt Li not even be able to climb her own ladder.

After taking a few deep breaths, Meng Yan finally got rid of his panic. He held the candlestick tightly, arched his back, and faced the window like a leopard ready to go, ready to subdue the person the moment he came in.

Regarding physical strength and boxing skills, Meng Yan didn't think he would lose.

The thud thud sound continued, and suddenly, the movement disappeared.

A figure is reflected in front of the window accompanied by candlelight.

"Hey, I have a bad temper." Seeing the person, Meng Yan became calm, and at the same time became very angry. He thought this place was haunted by ghosts!He can deal with people, but he is really not sure about ghosts. He doesn't believe in ghosts until he dies.

They don't let people sleep in the middle of the night, what kind of epilepsy is going on here.

He didn't wait for this person to come in, he just pushed open the window, and the rather heavy candlestick slammed on the other person's head, "Look at that!"

After smashing it, Meng Yan felt something was wrong...

The moment the figure appeared, he thought it was a thief from the village, but on second thought, no thief would wake someone up before doing anything.

Suddenly, Meng Yan raised his head, and a pale face appeared before his eyes.

This may be the oldest face he has ever seen, with age spots, layers of folds, and peeling gums, coupled with the bloodless skin swollen like a floating corpse, like a ghost crawling out of a coffin, coupled with those pair of eyeballs The shriveled eye sockets with dilated pupils turned upside down confirmed this identity even more.

An old man's smell mixed with the smell of corpses rushed over, and he only felt a layer of goosebumps from the soles of his feet to the top of his head—not frightened, but disgusted.

"Damn it!" Meng Yan couldn't hold back, and spouted a national curse, "It's so fucking hard to come out at such an age to scare people!"

A few lines of filth trickled down from the other party's injured forehead, just like Meng Yan's embarrassing cold sweat at this time.

uncle……

It just so happened that Wang Bowen was also woken up by the sound of Meng Yan smashing people, rubbing his eyes and mumbling, and when he opened his eyes, the scream instantly knocked over the roof.

Wang Bowen ah ah ah ah!

Meng Yan...

Wang Bowen, there is a ghost!

uncle……

Wang Bowen ah ah ah ah!

Meng Yan is fine.

The person holding the murder weapon silently withdrew his hand, then closed the window calmly.

"You didn't see anything, it's the wrong way for me to open the window."

When Meng Yan opened the window again, there was no one outside.

Wang Bowen's lips were trembling, and he stretched out his finger to point to the window. After pointing for a long time, he didn't say a word, rolled his eyes, and fainted again.
