Hidden Corner: Chapter 56 056 Pursuit Four
Chapter 56056 Pursuit Four
"The street of Candy Bar is not the former Xuezhong Road, right? Our memories are all met there." Sima Gui said.
"It's not far from here. You can get there by walking. Maybe the map is offset." Song Ran replied.
“By the way, Sima, Zhong Ying, when you entered Fog Street, did you see the leaflets posted on the street light poles?” Li Chengyi suddenly recalled a detail.
“Flyer? Didn’t pay attention.” Zhong Ying replied.
“That propaganda slogan against something? I saw it, what’s wrong?” Sima Gui asked in confusion.
“Did anything major happen in this place more than a hundred years ago?” Li Chengyi asked.
"According to the data, no. At that time, Yi State's national power was so strong that Bai Xing couldn't breathe. The country's per capita GDP was also high and social welfare was good. What big things could happen?" Song Ran asked back.
“Where’s the fire?” Zhong Ying said.
“The fire happened more than ten years ago and has nothing to do with Xuezhong Road more than a hundred years ago.” Song Ran retorted.
“At that time, were there any cement pillar street lamps on Xuezhong Road?” Li Chengyi asked again.
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately realized something was wrong.
In the simulation map created by several people, there were indeed concrete pillars and poles on Xuezhong Road more than a hundred years ago, with slogans posted on them.
but.
Everyone noticed that these poles are not street lights!
“No! Why are the cement poles on the road to the middle school all telegraph poles!?” Zhong Ying exclaimed in a low voice.
“Yes, in the blind corner of the foggy street we entered, all the concrete poles were street lights, and none of them were telephone poles!” Li Chengyi affirmed. "so."
“So, considering that the location we were looking for was a lake, it’s very possible that we were looking in the wrong direction!” Sima Gui quickly answered.
“But that’s wrong? Who would use cement pillars to make street lights? Is there such a place in Yi State?” Song Ran asked.
This question is very critical. After it was raised, several people in AR fell silent.
Yes, using cement pillars to make street lights is expensive and difficult to construct. It is much faster and cheaper to use a hollow iron pole directly.
“Will it be abroad?” Li Chengyi asked.
“Impossible, the signs on the foggy streets are all written in Yiguo characters.” Sima Gui denied.
“Perhaps it’s a combination of street lights and telephone poles?” Sindra said.
"Also a possibility."
Li Chengyi canceled the photo in front of him, looked at the row of old houses on the street, and fell into deep thought.
He really wanted to go into the foggy street again. Although it was a bit selfish, his purpose was not to help Zhong Ying, but to touch the mysterious little white flower again.
But now the clues are at a deadlock, and everything is stuck on the determination of the middle path.
Relying on the load-bearing stone pillars, Li Chengyi continued to organize his thoughts.
‘Perhaps it would be better to go back to the candy bar and have another memory flash. ’
He looked unconsciously at a pastry shop across the street.
The name of the shop is Zhoujia Cake.
The door is open, and wooden drawers are placed on the floor. In the drawers are bags of bread sticks, cakes, and biscuits.
The lights in the store are soft, and two clerks in white clothes and black aprons are busy arranging something behind the counter.
At this moment, a chubby little fat man tiptoed to the door of the cake shop, stretched out his hand, and stuffed all the pastries at the door of the shop one bag after another into a snakeskin bag he was carrying.
Seeing that the clerk was not paying attention to him, the little fat man became bolder and began to lower his head and enter the store. In front of the empty cash register, he reached for the banknotes in the open cash register.
Seeing that the little fat man took a bunch of money and walked out of the store, he was about to run away.
Li Chengyi looked around and saw that no one else noticed, so he decided to take action to discipline this brat.
Immediately he quickly crossed the street and blocked the little fat man's path on the sidewalk.
“What are you doing!?” He shouted in a low voice, which made the little fat man tremble all over. He dropped the snakeskin bag in his hand to the ground, turned around and ran away.
Li Chengyi stepped forward, picked up the snakeskin bag, opened it and saw that it was empty, with nothing in it.
He immediately understood that this boy might have just quickly hid the money and food elsewhere.
Immediately he quickly chased after the little fat man.
The two of them ran along the street and ran to a red trash can. The little fat man finally couldn't run anymore and leaned on the load-bearing pillar to breathe heavily.
"Why are you chasing me?" He turned back to Li Chengyi and said loudly.
"What do you think?" Li Chengyi felt that he had always been a person with a strong sense of justice, so he couldn't bear it when he saw the other party stealing money.
“I didn’t do anything?” the little fat man said confidently.
Li Chengyi could only see the fat man's appearance clearly at this moment.
Very fat, very cylindrical, with facial features squeezed into three slits by the fat, and even the eyes can hardly be seen clearly.
He was wearing an old red sweatshirt, a pair of yellowed white sweatpants hanging on his legs, and a pair of green rubber shoes stained with dry mud.
Li Chengyi noticed that there was a semicircular white mark on the left chest of the little fat man's sweatshirt. It was a pattern like a rising sun, with a line of words underneath: Dongliu Experimental Primary School.
“Where’s the thing you just took?” Li Chengyi said solemnly.
"I didn't take it! Do you care? There's a lot of shit!" The little fat man breathed out sweet things.
“Can you curse again?” Li Chengyi’s eyes turned cold.
bang
With a muffled sound, Li Chengyi slapped the other person on the face, causing the little fat man to stumble and fall to the ground, dazed for a moment.
A five-fingerprint was slowly printed on his fat left cheek.
“How dare you curse someone after stealing something? In the neighborhood where I grew up, a group of people would rush out and beat you to a disability on the spot!” Li Chengyi said coldly.
“You have so many things to do, and no one else cares about it. It’s none of your business!” the little fat man said loudly with tears in his eyes.
"I just have nothing to do! What's wrong!? What's the matter with you?" Li Chengyi asked.
He stepped forward and grabbed the little fat guy and gave him a good beating.
“Stop fighting, stop fighting!” Little Fatty held his head and screamed.
"You dare to scold me!?" Li Chengyi was feeling depressed because he couldn't find any clues about the dead end. At this time, he grabbed a good meat bag and gave him a good beating.
That means he still remembers to control his strength, otherwise with his now strengthened strength, he would be able to injure people internally in just a few blows.
“I heard you were looking for Wu Ji Grocery Store, I know where it is!” Suddenly the little fat man shouted loudly.
“!?” Li Chengyi paused and stared at the other party. "How did you know we were looking for Wu Ji Grocery Store?"
“You guys are standing on the street wearing glasses, running east and west for a while, you are so nervous, and you are talking so loudly, no one around you can hear you?” said the fat little man with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
"." Li Chengyi's face froze, and he recalled the actions of several of them. In the eyes of outsiders who didn't know the blind spots, they really felt like they were stupid and crazy.
“Okay, tell me, where is the grocery store?” He looked at the little fat man and asked in a deep voice. "If you can tell me the location, I will not only stop beating you, but I will also give you extra money to buy delicious food!"
“Put me up first.” The little fat man said quickly.
Hearing this, Li Chengyi quickly stepped aside and took two steps back.
Looking at the little fat man getting up from the ground, he patted the dust off his body.
“Tell me, do you know where it is?” he continued to ask.
"It's the Wuji grocery store that sells bubble gum, fried tofu, and small stickers. I know it. I've seen fruit machines and rocking chairs in front of their house before." The little fat man wiped his nose on the On the butt, said quickly.
“Yes, that’s the one!” Li Chengyi compared the restored grocery store in the data. The items sold were exactly the same. It was indeed the one!
He was refreshed. He originally thought that he would not be able to find any clues for a while, but he didn't expect that a fat man who stole things would actually know about Wu Ji Grocery Store.
“If you take me there, I will give you one hundred yuan as reward!” Li Chengyi quickly took out his wallet, took out a hundred yuan note that had been collected for more than half a year, and waved it in front of the other party’s eyes.
"Okay, you come with me!" The little fat man turned around and ran away without saying a word.
Li Chengyi felt full of anticipation when he thought that he would be able to touch the little white flower soon.
He hurriedly followed, taking a few steps and speeding up.
Hum!
At this moment, the sky and the earth were spinning in an instant, Li Chengyi's steps staggered, and he almost lost his balance and fell.
His entire field of vision was blurred, and the various colors were like a blender, spinning and twisting, pulling out lines of different colors.
'This is.! ? ’
Li Chengyi moved back, wanting to retreat.
He knew he had entered a memory flash, but it was already too late.
‘How come you enter a memory flash at this time! ? ? ’
At a glance, he could follow the little fat man to Wu Ji Grocery Store, but now
‘That’s not right! If I go in now, I can touch the flower first! ’
Suddenly, his thoughts changed, and his previous nervousness suddenly turned into anticipation.
Soon, everything in front of me began to become clearer.
Colored lines resumed, and the dizzying feeling quickly dissipated.
In front of Li Chengyi, the gray old street shrouded in fog appeared again.
He quickly raised his head, not looking at the slot machine at the end, but at the ground at the foot of the cement pillar and street lamp on the side of the road.
Where is that little white flower? ?
Li Chengyi glanced quickly.
Suddenly, a flash of white came into his eyes. The mysterious little white flower from before, red in the mountains, was growing quietly at the foot of a street lamp, swaying slightly, delicate and beautiful.
Li Chengyi took a few steps and then quickly stretched out his hand to grab the little flower.
‘Shanlihong: also known as red fruit, large hawthorn, small deciduous tree in the Rosaceae family. Information is incomplete. Medicinal value. Incomplete. The flowering period is incomplete.’
These are the same as before.
The focus is on the language of flowers!
‘Flower language: The determination of the gods to cut off the heaven and destroy the earth. ’
Sure enough! Still unchanged.
Li Chengyi quickly looked at the next message.
‘Flower Scale Clothes Collection Level: No new flower **** position has been opened. ’
He expected this. His purpose was to come in again and take this flower out!
If the flower activity can be maintained in a short period of time, transplant it into reality
Immediately, he did not hesitate. Anyway, there are no new flowers blooming in the Flower Goddess now, and he cannot absorb this flower. He might as well dig it out and try transplanting it first!
Li Chengyi squatted down and condensed the flower scales on his palms, and then used the sharp blade of Gladiolus to dig down from the soil on the side of the small red flower in the mountain.
With a small hissing sound, lumps of black soil were dug out along with fragments of stone slabs.
The red roots in the mountains are gradually exposed.
