Parallel World Episode 6 Recap
> Parallel World Recap
Ye Liuxi and Chang Dong set up a makeshift tent and, with nothing else to do, started discussing their speculations. They believed that someone was trying to trap Ye Liuxi in a life-threatening situation. Over these days, Ye Liuxi had been working leisurely, wanting to see if those people would become impatient. So far, she hadn't discovered any clues, and whether their future would reveal the truth or lead into someone else's trap remained uncertain. The only thing clear was that the person behind it was the one getting anxious.
As they were speaking, a familiar convoy approached. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Fei Tang and Gray Eight's group. Chang Dong initially thought that Fei Tang had joined forces with Gray Eight. Due to the strong winds in the Hailongdui area, Gray Eight had used cars to encircle their camp, reducing the circulation of sand and acting as a buffer.
With nightfall, everyone retired to their tents. Chang Dong seized the opportunity to reprimand Fei Tang, angrily scolding him for getting involved with Gray Eight. Chang Dong believed it would lead to serious trouble sooner or later. Fei Tang understood Chang Dong's concerns but, driven by his emotions, responded sporadically, expressing that he had merely talked to Gray Eight and hadn't considered joining them. As he spoke, he became increasingly agitated and ended up lying on the ground, refusing to get up.
However, in the next moment, something mysterious suddenly grabbed Fei Tang's ankle and swiftly dragged him over ten meters away, stopping just in time. Fei Tang was left in a daze, nearly terrified out of his wits. Chang Dong carried Fei Tang back to the tent, trying to gather information from him, but Fei Tang, still not completely calm, provided disjointed responses, suggesting that something or someone had tried to drag him away.
Chang Dong thought back to the camel caravan images and Fei Tang's experience, concluding that something strange was happening in this place. He suggested leaving for the town overnight. However, Gray Eight felt that Chang Dong was overreacting, so he didn't heed Chang Dong's advice. Chang Dong could only comfort Fei Tang and tell him to rest while he and Ye Liuxi went to investigate the area where Fei Tang had been dragged.
Indeed, they found a roughly ten-meter-long drag mark in the same spot, indicating an enormous force at play. Otherwise, given Fei Tang's weight, the drag wouldn't have been so straight. To get to the bottom of this, Ye Liuxi and Chang Dong decided to use themselves as bait. However, they waited for a long time without any unusual occurrences, so they had to return to the car to rest.
Because of the events from the previous night, Fei Tang urgently wanted to leave the area, but Chang Dong was not ready to leave yet. He drew a detailed map for Fei Tang, instructing him to follow his tire tracks and flags from yesterday to exit. After Fei Tang left, Ye Liuxi was in an unusually good mood and chatted with everyone. However, Chang Dong interrupted her, much to her annoyance. She was certain that sooner or later, she would beat him to death unless he treated her like a deity.
Not long after, Fei Tang's car returned, and he stumbled out of it, pale and trembling. His lips had turned blue. He explained that the flags had disappeared, and the tire tracks had changed direction, suddenly stopping at a Yadan platform, as if it had been devoured by the platform itself.
Fei Tang had experienced two strange events in succession, leaving him extremely anxious. He kneeled beside Ye Liuxi, seeking her protection. Ye Liuxi reminded Fei Tang that if he wanted to survive, he needed to become stronger and couldn't rely on others for long-term survival.
As Fei Tang had described, Chang Dong found that the tire tracks had inexplicably disappeared, and there were many other tire tracks that didn't belong to the campsite. Ye Liuxi also shared her observations from earlier in the day. In the morning, Gray Eight's group had been grumbling, but they had returned at noon, seemingly excited, as if they had discovered a treasure.
Despite Fei Tang's timid and weak disposition, he was an expert in antique business, particularly skilled at determining the age and value of antiques. Many merchants were cunning and selfish, but he had fewer signs of a bandit. Gray Eight was surprised to learn of Fei Tang's abilities and decided to bring him into the tent privately.
In the middle of the night, Ye Liuxi noticed that Gray Eight's group was once again armed and hurriedly leaving the camp. This raised her suspicions. While Chang Dong checked the tire tracks, Fei Tang suddenly came and secretly showed them a photo from Gray Eight's phone. He explained that Gray Eight's group had found a coffin in the Yadan and wanted to excavate it.
