Simpleness is more appropriate to evaluate this map than brevity.

Only the outline of the road is simply outlined above, and several signs such as "fast restaurant", "coffee shop" and "gas station" are attached. Almost all other positions are blank.

At first glance, the rough and random lines on the paper indicate that the works of kindergarten children are somewhat credible.

And behind...

Tang Xinjue opened the door and got out of the car to confirm, her eyes narrowed slightly.

The rear is a fractured cliff.

The road seemed to be cut open, and countless mists rose from the collapse, making it impossible to see what the other end looked like. On the side of the road stood a sign with a sign to go ahead.

Under the sign it says: Outer City Highway.

Tang Xinjue closed her eyes and let the perception in the sea of ​​consciousness spread. However, when she came into contact with the mist, the sharp tingling suddenly became strong, forcing her to give up the induction.

Where did this tingling come from?

She paused for a few seconds, turned on the phone with her eyes, and checked her physical condition.

Full health score, four-dimensional attributes and self-created skills are displayed normally, and there is no debuff.

[Mind Control (Level 1): The first step in control is self-control. ]

Even mental control can't stop the pain in the sea of ​​consciousness, it is obviously not an attack from the outside world, but I can't find the source...

Tang Xinjue felt quietly for a while, then rubbed his eyebrows and returned to the car.

The road ahead is still open, she estimated her driving skills, and she can almost drive.

Step on the accelerator and the car slowly drives on the highway.

I thought it would be a long distance, but I didn't expect it to be less than ten meters, and the fog on both sides suddenly dissipated, and lush trees appeared on the roadside.

"Ding!"

A red pole suddenly crossed the middle of the road, and a crisp bell rang from the left.

Tang Xinjue stepped on the brakes and turned his eyes to the direction where the bell appeared - a small green building standing on the side of the road, like an erected rectangular box, if you don't look carefully, it almost merges with the trees .

A hand reached out from the "box" and waved a few times in the direction of the car.

Tang Xinjue slowly drove past the steering wheel and stopped beside the building.

The arm is sticking out of a small window. When it retracted, the window was pulled upwards, revealing the face of a middle-aged man in a chef's hat.

The middle-aged man gave Tang Xinjue a quick glance, an exaggerated commercial smile appeared on his face, and the bright red gums were very eye-catching: "The weather is really nice today."

The face disappeared, and the hand reached out again from the small window, this time with an extra cup of coffee.

"Here's your chocolate coffee."

The view moves up, above the small window, and at the top of the hut, a word is spelled out with twisted wire: COFFEE.

It looks like a small coffee shop on the side of the road for passing cars.

Tang Xinjue didn't reach out and put her finger on the temple: "I've never ordered your coffee."

The man in the kitchen hat bent over to reveal his face again, his exaggerated smile unchanged: "No, it's okay, Grandma Mayas will reimburse you."

Seeing that Tang Xinjue hadn't taken over the coffee, the man in the kitchen hat maintained a smirk: "This road is very long, and there are few rest and supplies along the way, if you don't drink a cup of hot coffee, it is Unable to hold on."

Finally, the man in the kitchen hat reluctantly added: "...Replenishing physical strength in time is the requirement of the "Road Travel Instructions"."

This time, Tang Xinjue didn't read the fraud and malice on the other side's face. She took the coffee, "Thanks."

The man in the kitchen hat immediately retracted his hand and muttered: "If the guys in the city find out, they will definitely make fun of me as the kindest businessman in the world. Oh, what can I do, I It's just a small business on the side of the road."

Listening to the muttering in the small window, Tang Xinjue felt that the tingling in her mind became more and more obvious.

An inexplicable sense of ominousness lingered in her heart, but she could not find out why.

She lowered her head and took a sip of the coffee, it was sweet and greasy, and the hot liquid instantly dispelled the coolness engulfed by the wind.

A line of words is printed on the outside of the paper cup:

[It all starts here]

Staring at the words for a while, Tang Xinjue raised her head and asked the man in the kitchen hat, "Excuse me, do you know where Grandma Mayas' house is?"

It doesn't seem surprising that Tang Xinjue would ask this question, and the man in the kitchen hat quickly replied: "Follow this road until you reach the end, and at the end is Grandma Mayas' house."

"You have to hurry up, though."

The small window was pulled open again, the man's lips moved, and he said vaguely: "Grandma Mayas hates being late, before dark... You don't want to know the consequences, speed up!"

Tang Xinjue stared at each other without hesitation: "So, what time will it get dark here?"

"I think it's after seven o'clock in the evening." The man in the kitchen hat subconsciously calculated, his smile froze, and he became angry for no reason, "No, why should I tell you this, you Didn't pay me! You college students who are full of bad water...you know how to bully me, an honest person who runs a small business...I hope you never go back to school!"

Tang Xinjue looked at the menu, only coffee was sold here, and the price of each cup of coffee was marked in a currency called "University Coins". For example, the price of this cup of chocolate coffee in hand is 5 university dollars.

She noticed that there were many marks with a pencil behind the item "Chocolate Coffee".

Seeing that the owner was not going to show up again, Tang Xinjue stepped on the accelerator and continued on the road.

On the mobile phone, it shows that it is three o'clock in the afternoon, and it will be four hours before the owner said it will be dark at seven o'clock in the evening. According to the current task requirements, she needs to find Grandma Mayas' house within four hours.

Green buildings gradually disappeared in the rear-view mirror, and there were still identical trees on both sides of the road. The ominous white mist spread among the trees, refusing candidates to explore.

As far as the senses can reach, there is no sound except for the sound of the wind, and there is no living thing, only the endless road.

Tang Xinjue maintained a uniform speed, while observing the surrounding scene, while thinking about the information about this test.

This time it wasn't like it used to be, the four of them woke up in the bedroom at the same time - at least not now.

The last time they were taken apart and acted alone was in the copy of "Death in Three Years". touch.

This assumption was rejected by Tang Xinjue the moment it appeared.

Because in the whole bedroom, she is the only one who can drive.

If the other three have the same task, you can directly declare failure from the first step. There will be no dead end for candidates in the exam.

Thoughts fluctuated, intuition and judgment told Tang Xinjue that the difficulty of this exam was not "parallel space".

Three others, probably here. It's just that she hasn't been found yet.

It's just the beginning, calm down. Tang Xinjue tapped the steering wheel with his fingers, and warned himself in his heart, pressing down on the irritability that rose from the nameless, and focused on driving.

The car continued to drive forward, and the trees on both sides were shadowed. After watching it for a long time, it seemed that the same section of the journey was constantly copying and pasting. Apart from this, there are no other dangers.

Tang Xinjue still maintained a high degree of concentration and did not take it lightly.

Suddenly, a short figure emerged from the thorns of the trees, and the convertible braked suddenly and stopped in front of it!

The short figure also fell to the ground because of the inertia of the body, and soon got up unscathed: it was a little boy with an inch head about five or six years old, he clapped his hands and was about to continue running forward .

Tang Xinjue watched this scene quietly in the car, she didn't intend to act, but when she inadvertently swept a touch of color, her eyes narrowed, and she honked the horn without thinking. .

The loud noise made the child stop and turn his head. Only then did Tang Xinjue see clearly: his face was blank, with no facial features.

And as she had just caught out of the corner of her eye, the little boy was wearing an inappropriate women's watch on his arm, exactly the same as Guo Guojin was wearing before the exam.

How can Guo Guo's watch appear on other people?
