20.The River of Doom

  “Real Hell?”

  Axiu looked at Li in front of her with some confusion, while the latter became more and more uneasy.

  The disappearance of Luo, the thing he feared most in his heart, had finally happened.

  Although he had expected it, he had indeed held a glimmer of hope that he could safely pass through a month of time.

  But now it seems impossible.

  Based on his past experiences and what Yuan had said, he could roughly judge.

  Disappearing at the location indicated by the blood letter was basically equivalent to meeting with an accident.

  Although he thought so, Li still found it hard to accept that Luo died just like that.

  He still remembered when Luo's shadow entered the apartment, he was in a state of panic and almost cried.

  It was Li who comforted him and told him that he could leave after completing ten blood letter instructions.

  Although he didn't know how many years it would take, at least there was hope.

  But now… the one who finally regained hope and volunteered to live with him…

  In that apartment, there was trust between the residents, but there was also more mutual suspicion.

  The only people Li could completely open his heart to and fully trust were Yuan, Ye, Luo, Hua 's couple, and Tang, the surgeon in Room 106.

  Last time, Li escaped death and returned to the apartment.

  After he came back, the six of them gathered at Hua's couple's house and ate hot pot together.

  After all, in this apartment that was like hell, being able to survive was the greatest happiness.

  At that time, Luo also managed to escape death and return to the apartment, so everyone said they had to celebrate.

  That day was one of the few happy days in the apartment.

  Everyone chatted and laughed, talking about their past, and hoping that they could leave this apartment together in the future!

  Everyone was looking forward to that day.

  But deep down, they all knew that very few people could actually leave the apartment.

The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.

  No one could lift the curse the apartment cast upon their shadows, so they could only act according to the apartment's rules.

  But Li still hoped that he could live with Luo and the others, and leave the apartment together!

  But was it finally shattered?

  ……

  At the same time, Qin entered the dense forest to look for Luo.

  Although he hadn't known Luo for long, he liked the honest and straightforward young man.

  Although in the apartment, one often couldn't even protect themselves, but after all, everyone was bearing the same fate.

  When a certain resident died, it was inevitable to feel a sense of sadness at the death of a rabbit.

  Qin was really unwilling to see the people around him die like this.

  Suddenly…

  A rushing river appeared in front of him.

  The river was about ten meters wide.

  “How…?”

  Qin was immediately stunned.

  Logically speaking, this river shouldn't appear!

  What was going on?

  He was only about five meters away from the river, but he didn't dare to take another step forward.

  In the dark forest, under the sky without a single ray of light, the appearance of such a strange river made Qin feel a chill.

  At this moment, Li's words echoed in his mind.

  "Water…"

  He wanted to retreat, but Qin couldn't help but worry about Luo.

  Turn back… or… move forward?

  Thinking about it, he lowered his head… but this lowering of his head made him scream out in shock!

  The river that had been five meters away from him was now only a few centimeters from his feet!

  It moved?

  When did it happen?

  As Yuan said… the blood letter instructions became more and more bizarre as you progressed…

  Escape!

  At this moment, Qin no longer hesitated.

  He turned around and took a step, but… he stepped into the water! Then, his whole body sank!

  Fortunately, Qin was a good swimmer.

  He immediately, without hesitation, swam towards the shore!

  But…

  Although he kept swimming, after about two minutes, he still couldn't reach the shore!

  But… the shore was clearly right in front of him!

  Weird… this unbelievable situation was about to completely overwhelm Qin!

  The previous blood letter instructions had never shown such incredible situations!

  It was simply not like being in the real world!

  Moreover, Qin began to notice something else.

  That is…

  The river was wider than before!

  Roughly estimated, it was at least tens of meters wide!

  As for the depth, he estimated it would definitely be no less than ten meters!

  Maybe even deeper!

  Unable to reach the shore, and such a deep river… this was simply a desperate situation!

  Once he ran out of strength, he would only have one way out!

  “Li!” Qin shouted at the top of his lungs: “Help! Li, Li!”

  His phone had been soaked in water and was completely useless.

  He could only rely on shouting, hoping that Li could hear him.

  He was now using all his lung capacity to shout Li's name, even if his throat became hoarse, he had to let Li hear him!

  At this moment… Li also faintly heard someone calling his name.

  “Who is it?” Li immediately looked towards the forest behind the village, listening carefully, and seemed to hear the voice calling his name again.

  “Luo? Qin?” He immediately became nervous and rushed towards the forest!

  And Axiu behind him, looking at Li's back, had a sinister smile on her lips.

  Li ran with all his might, desperately searching for the source of the sound, and also shouted:

  “Luo! Is that you? Luo! Qin, are you there? Answer me! Where are you?”

  He didn't want to see anyone else die.

  He had… he had already seen too many people die in front of him!

  “Answer me! Qin!”

  Li's voice was almost hoarse.

  Just when he was about to give up hope, he heard Qin's call from ahead.

  “I'm here… Li, Li, save me!”
