Chapter 2 Old Friends
Killing a chicken to scare monkeys is always the most effective and efficient method, especially when time is limited, often achieving immediate results.
Xiao Xuan suddenly pulled out a gun and shot someone without saying a word, the woman in the sports jersey and the muscular man were clearly shocked, both of them involuntarily took several steps back to keep their distance from Xiao Xuan. However, they didn't dare to really run away because they knew that bullets are faster than legs.
Xiao Xuan didn't have time to waste on idle chatter with these newcomers, because he knew he had to rush off and meet up with Sarah and the others at the gas station below the slope as soon as possible. No matter what, he had to follow them into that cave, or else time would run out and his mission would be terminated by the main god.
"Alright, now it's time for self-introduction. My name is Xiao Xuan, what about you?"
"I... I'm Zhao Jian." The muscular man stuttered a few times before reporting his own name, and he still felt a chill on his back, while also feeling grateful that he hadn't been shot like this when he first thought of sneaking up on Xiao Xuan.
"My name is Su Mueran." The woman in the sports jersey was called Su Mueran, but what caught Xiao Xuan's attention was that this girl could control her emotions even earlier than Zhao Jian, the muscular man beside her. This girl might not be as simple as she seemed. Xiao Xuan had already labeled Su Mueran in his mind, a kind of warning to himself.
"Zhao Jian, go push the corpse to the thicket by the side of the road and make it a bit more hidden." Xiao Xuan's hand flipped over, and the gun disappeared. Seeing this scene, Su Muran's pupils contracted slightly, she caught a glimpse of the ring on Xiao Xuan's nameless finger flashing with light just now.
At this time, Zhao Jian naturally did not dare to disobey Xiao Xuan's words, and hurriedly bent down, directly picking up the woman's corpse and throwing it onto the road, the female corpse rolled down the steep slope and disappeared into the woods.
"Alright, now let's go meet the heroine of the world of 'Darkness Invasion 1', who is also our target to protect in this mission - Sarah. You can also continue to recall the message left by the main god in your minds, believe me, those messages are true, don't use your own life to challenge the authority of God."
After saying these words, Xiao Xuan directly turned around and walked towards the gas station on that side. Since there is a slope between here and the gas station, the line of sight between the two parties is blocked. Xiao Xuan didn't hesitate to pull out his gun and kill him right here, and the gun was also equipped with a silencer.
Su Muran and Zhao Jian exchanged a glance, both seeing hesitation and uncertainty in each other's eyes. Su Muran was slightly more resolute, shaking her head before following Xiao Xuan to the gas station. Zhao Jian looked down at the bloodstain on the ground, then at his own hands, took a deep breath, and followed suit.
Originally, Xiao Xuan was still thinking about what method to use to join the three women's cave exploration team, but this problem completely disappeared with Sarah's call.
"Xiao Xuan, you guys are finally here! We've been waiting for half an hour. Su Muran, Zhao Jian, how are you? Hmm, where's Qin Liren? Didn't she come with you to meet up with us?"
Sarah sat on the hood of the car, waving to Xiao Xuan and others with a very casual attitude, as if they had been old friends for many years, without any awkwardness.
"Oh... Qin Li said she wasn't feeling well and suddenly couldn't make it, so just the three of us came."
Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Xuan's heart was also clear. It should be that the main god had already arranged identities for everyone in the Chinese team in this world with "Darkness Invasion 1" as the background. Moreover, they had all become good friends with Sarah and others, and had agreed to meet here before going on a cave exploration adventure together. It can be said that the main god's setting saved Xiao Xuan a lot of trouble, while also making him once again admire the main god's ability. This ability is equivalent to arbitrarily adding a person's existence in a world system, and even "deceiving" the native inhabitants of the original world.
"Alas, Qin Li has an unmarried husband to accompany her, so she's not happy to chat with us old friends. It's really heartbreaking, hehe." Sara said with a smile, and at the same time, she took out several bottles of drinks from the car and handed them over to Xiao Xuan, Su Muren, and Zhao Jian.
"Everyone has worked hard, once the car is refueled we'll set off. First, we'll head to the mountain wooden house that was booked in advance and stay overnight, then early next morning we'll go to the Juno confirmed cave for an adventure. I'm getting impatient!" Sarah said excitedly.
"Hehe, yeah, it's good to have more fun."
Xiao Xuan knew the plot of the movie "Darkness Falls 1". He was aware that Sarah's husband and daughter had just died in a car accident, and her emotions were still very low. This time, it was Ruo Nu and Beth who organized everyone to go on a cave adventure trip to help Sarah take her mind off things and alleviate her pain of losing her loved ones. Xiao Xuan also noticed that although Sarah seemed to be talking lively, the sadness in the corner of her eyes could not be hidden no matter what. This woman must be very painful, but in order not to dampen her friends' enthusiasm and not to disappoint their good intentions, she had been pretending to be happy all along.
After meeting Sarah, Su Mo and Zhao Jian finally believed in the authenticity of this world. If it were a criminal organization or some kind of hypnosis brainwashing, they couldn't possibly have brought Shona McDonald
Natalie Jackson Mendoza, these Hollywood stars are also called to fool people together, and "Darkness" is a 05-year movie, it has been almost 10 years since now, even if the original stars come out, they can't restore their youthful appearance ten years ago.
Ruo Nu and Beth had already filled up the car with gas, and when they saw Xiao Xuan and others arrive, they also warmly greeted them. Ruo Nu gave people a sense of being a refined woman, exuding an air of elegance from head to toe, while Beth seemed slightly more delicate.
"Qin Li said she's not coming, so now that everyone is here, we can set off," Sarah said to Juno, who had always been the leader of the group as the most experienced explorer among them.
"Let's go, let's set off. Everyone get on the bus." Zhūnō patted the car door, indicating that everyone should get on.
The space inside the van was very spacious, even with six people, it didn't feel cramped. Ruo Nu was driving, and everyone was chatting idly in the car. Relatively speaking, Zhao Jian and Su Mu Ran were quite quiet, only responding with a few words when necessary. On the other hand, Xiao Xuan was more talkative, chatting enthusiastically with Sara and the others, giving off a truly old friend vibe. Su Mu Ran observed Xiao Xuan's demeanor and language from the side, thinking that this man was really terrifying, not just because of his decisiveness in shooting people, but also due to his extremely meticulous mind and strong psychological quality.
However, since it's now confirmed that this is the so-called main god space, and the world I'm currently in is also a perilous task world, whether I can survive or not will probably still depend on this man.
Su Mochen still remembered that the message left by the main god said that this task world was 1 senior and 3 newcomers. It was obvious that this senior was Xiao Xuan. At the same time, Su Mochen was also secretly curious, as a senior, what other special places did Xiao Xuan have besides that ring?
Now, the van has actually entered deep into the mountains. There is almost no human habitation here. After driving for about three hours, Rono stopped the car and everyone saw a small wooden house standing in the mountains within their line of sight. The wooden house was very exquisite, surrounded by beautiful scenery, indeed a good place for tourism and vacation. However, for everyone, this place is just a stopping point, their purpose is actually a nearby cave, but they have to stay here tonight.
"Alright, everyone bring your things and let's go inside."
Ruo Nu called out and carried a large package directly to the small wooden house, while Xiao Xuan and others also started helping to move things from the car to the small wooden house. The adventure equipment was prepared by Ruo Nu, so Xiao Xuan, Zhao Jian, and Su Mo Ran didn't have to worry about not having adventure equipment. In fact, because Qin Li was shot dead by Xiao Xuan, there was even an extra set of equipment here.
"Xiao Xuan, you come and light the fire. Let's go and sweep the bedroom first. No one has lived here for half a year, if we don't sweep it, we won't be able to sleep tonight."
After finishing speaking, Ruo Nu took everyone to clean the room together, and even Zhao Jian and Su Mu Ran followed along.
"Start a fire, start a fire." Xiao Xuan threw all the charcoal and firewood next to the fireplace into the fireplace. Then, he pointed his finger at a small flame that suddenly appeared in mid-air, and with a flick of his finger, the small flame flew into the fireplace, and the fire immediately rose up.
Under the flickering candlelight, Xiao Xuan's face was somewhat uncertain and unpredictable.
