Chapter Twenty-Six: The Adventures of Wang Lung
It's almost noon, and the number of orders in the restaurant is gradually increasing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Under the loud urging of the proprietress, Wang Lung fixed the incubator to the rear of the battery car. He got into his car and drove to the nearest food delivery location.
Approaching the lunch break, the traffic is obviously congested. Wang Lung followed the traffic and came to a three-way intersection. At the red light, Wang Lung braked and stopped at the front of the traffic.
Wang Lung was staring at the red light and waiting for boredom. Suddenly, he heard a cacophony coming from the fork in the road to the northwest. The sound came and went, as if there were many people shouting and scolding.
Wang Lung was curious. But because of the angle, even if he tried to look, he couldn't see what was happening in the depths of the fork in the northwest.
The cacophony is getting louder and louder. It's like a lot of people are gathering here.
Soon, Wang Lung found that there was a junction in the northwest. Several drivers who were waiting for the green light actually opened the door one after another and jumped out of the driver's seat. They let their cars stay at the intersection and ran wildly regardless of it.
Several drivers either ran towards Wang Lung's side or ran to the fork in the road to the northeast.
"What's wrong?" Wang Lung was inexplicable, craned his neck, and looked greedily at the few cars in the northwest. The driver's doors of those cars are still open!
Wang Lung didn't have any bad intentions, he just felt surprised. He craned his neck and saw a large number of figures running from the northwest. Among them were old and young, and even women in high heels and narrow skirts.
Wang Lung was guessing the reason, and his eyes suddenly widened. He saw several skeletons at the end of the flow of people to the northwest. There seemed to be a lot of skeletons, chasing and fleeing people, and they kept appearing in Wang Lung's field of vision.
Wang Lung was excited, and suddenly remembered the president's speech he watched last night. It dawned on him that the skeleton monster had descended into the city where he lived.
Wang Lung hurriedly supported the ground with one foot and turned the car around. He wanted to go back the way he came.
However, halfway through the car, Wang Lung changed his mind. The road behind is crowded with vehicles like long snakes. Although his battery car is lightweight, it can't be fast.
Wang Lung thought for a moment, simply accelerated, and rushed directly to the sidewalk to the east. Wang Lung rushed onto the sidewalk, adjusted his direction slightly, and headed straight for the fork in the road to the northeast.
There were all kinds of shouts and screams all around, and there were running figures around them. Wang Lung honked his horn wildly while speeding close to the green belt.
Cycling is faster than running, after all. Wang Lung surpassed others one after another. He gradually calmed down. From the rearview mirror, the shadow of the skeleton can no longer be seen, only the pedestrians fleeing in a hurry.
Wang Lung thought about it and planned to return to his rental house. In his opinion, it is located in a remote location and belongs to the basement, so it should be relatively safe.
"Just hide and wait until the army arrives!" Wang Lung thought, and he didn't care about obeying the traffic rules. He walked along the sidewalk, turned left and right, and rushed to the dormitory.
Gradually, the people along the way cursed at Wang Lung. For they didn't know that the Skeleton Monster had descended on the city. There was calm all around, and people were still in the same order.
Wang Lung didn't care about it, and always rampage at a fast speed. Seeing the people around him, he unconsciously condemns himself. Wang Lung slowly felt compassion. He shouted, "The skeleton monster is coming, go home, find a place to hide......"
Wang Lung's shout aroused the suspicion of passers-by. Some people stopped and watched, some people were indifferent, and some people suddenly turned around and really returned home.
Just like this, I rode all the way and shouted, and I was almost at my residence. Wang Lung braked suddenly.
I saw that deep in the road ahead, dozens of skeletons were chasing hundreds of figures with bone sticks in their hands.
The street is wide, and dozens of skeletons are scattered from front to back, left and right, looking scattered. There were a lot of people fleeing, at least two or three hundred. Although the crowd was also scattered, it was inevitably dense compared to the skeletons behind.
Wang Lung stayed where he was and hesitated: "Is it necessary to continue to escape? The people in front, even if the old and weak women are eliminated, the number is at least two or three times that of the skeleton monsters. ”
Wang Lung was hesitating, when he suddenly heard a loud scolding nearby: "Malegobi, you guys run a ......."
Wang Lung turned his head to look and saw a man in a red shirt in his thirties standing at the door of a certain shop, shouting and scolding the fleeing crowd.
"Don't run," the man in the red shirt roared, "there are hundreds of you, and there are only a few dozen skeletons in the back. Turn around and cooperate, how many times the advantage, but you can't do those few bones?"
However, let the man in the red shirt shout and pull, but no one listened to his advice. Almost everyone ran past him without stopping.
After a while, the figure was almost gone, and the skeleton monster was getting closer. The red-shirted man scolded in frustration, turned around and ran away: "Malegobi, you run, even if Lao Tzu wants to kill monsters, you can only run." ”
Seeing that the man gave up his plan to snipe the skeleton. Wang Lung sighed secretly. He propped himself on the ground with one foot and turned the car again.
Wang Lung was just about to start the battery car, when he suddenly felt a huge force pull him backwards. Wang Lung's body flew upside down involuntarily.
"Plop!" Wang Lung's body fell to the ground. Half of his body ached sharply. He was lying on his side on the ground, and saw a man in gray, who picked up his battery car, straddled it, and galloped away.
Wang Lung sat up, looked at the battery car in the distance, and shouted: "Grab the car! Damn, someone is robbing the car." Someone is robbing the car!"
"Don't shout!"
Wang Lung felt someone support him. With the help of external forces, he stood up. Wang Lung turned his head and saw that it was the red-shirted man who had just called for unity to help him.
The man in the red shirt let go of Wang Lung and ran slowly: "Don't run away yet." Now, how can the police take care of your car robbery case? ”
"Oh!" Wang Lung looked sideways, and suddenly felt creepy. There were several skeletons behind him, running towards Wang Lung. They are not slow, and they are less than ten meters away from the king rex.
"Mom!" Wang Lung screamed, and the girl ran away. He subconsciously followed the man in the red shirt.
Run, run, run. Sometimes the figures around him fall behind, and sometimes there are figures rushing forward from behind. Wang Lung didn't care, and he didn't need to turn his head to check the situation behind him. Because of the reaction of the pedestrians in front of him, he told Wang Lung that he had not been able to get rid of the pursuit of the skeleton monster.
Wang Lung ran all the way, and there were always pedestrians in front of him who screamed and joined the ranks of the runners.
I don't know how long I fled. Wang Lung felt thirsty and tired, and his speed slowed down irrepressibly. He turned his head to look around, only to realize that he was running in confusion, and he could no longer see the figure of the man in the red shirt.
The skeletons in the city seem to be densely packed. In the beginning, only skeletons were behind them. Later, when encountering the intersection, Wang Lung and others repeatedly had to turn suddenly. Because of the road in front or on the side, there are also situations where skeletons chase crowds.
Like a headless fly, it flees with the crowd around it. Wang Lung felt like he was about to lose his support. He suddenly felt a trip under his feet and fell instantly.
Wang Lung saw in a trance that someone deliberately tripped over himself. Wang Lung no longer has the energy to find the bastard who trips himself. He didn't even have the strength to scold.
Wang Lung turned his head to scan the skeleton behind him, and then realized that the surrounding environment was extremely familiar.
The skeleton behind him was still more than ten meters away from him. But Wang Lung couldn't run anymore.
Wang Lung looked around and took a deep breath. He rushed to the dumpster in a nearby corner. Wang Lung rushed to the dumpster and leaped with his feet. His body slammed against the wall.
Fortunately, although the collision was painful, Wang Lung's arms finally stuck on the wall. Wang Lung took a deep breath, struggled with all his strength, and pulled and climbed indiscriminately.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and Wang Lung finally plunged into the courtyard wall.
Landing on his back, Wang Lung was so angry that he coughed in pain. Despite the fear, the skeletons outside will learn from themselves and climb into the wall. But Wang Lung really didn't have the slightest strength to get up. He just lay on his back, listening to the movement outside.
"Boom!" every now and then, there would be a soft sound of a dustbin or two outside. Wang Lung's heart was also pinched.
For a long time, just when Wang Lung wanted to struggle to get up. He saw two middle-aged men appear and walk up to him.
The two men looked very angry. The strong man with a meaty face leaned over and grabbed Wang Lung's collar and cursed viciously: "Damn, why did you lure them in? Get out, get out of here." Lead them away to me. ”
Another short and fat man, also with a fierce face: "Dog*, you want to kill us." ”
Wang Lung knew that this was a kindergarten. So he explained very guiltily: "I don't want to hurt anyone." Wait a minute, wait for me to recover a little. I'll go out and lure them away. ”
The two middle-aged men looked at each other and didn't make a sound.
Wang Lung was worried that the two of them would throw themselves out, and hurriedly said, "I am like this now." Even if you go out, you won't be able to run far. When I regain a little strength, I can take the skeleton away. ”
The tall man with a meaty face nodded. The short and fat man turned around and walked to the nearby house: "You wait, I'll go get you some water." ”
Wang Lung sat up and looked at the tall man beside him, as well as the back of the short and fat man: "You are employees here? I don't seem to have seen you much before." ”
The tall man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he explained quietly: "We are the security guards here." It didn't take long for me to be here. ”
Wang Lung agreed, and he didn't doubt it.
Time passed, and about a few minutes passed. After Wang Lung drank the water, he climbed up the wall under the urging of the two men one after another. He cautiously looked out, and quickly jumped down: "Two big brothers, there are no skeleton monsters outside. ”
The two men relaxed, and suddenly their faces changed again. They could clearly hear the sound of a bang at the gate of the courtyard.
Wang Lung was also shocked.
The three of them were walking towards the courtyard gate. A young woman turned from the corner and shouted in panic, "Oh no! ”
