Episode 056: Don't give up easily
I guess it's already the middle of the night! The narrow alley is very quiet, and occasionally a few drops of cooling water dripping from the air conditioner hanging on the wall of the building. While... "Knock" as if it had gone through ninety-nine hundred and eleventh difficulties, and finally fell into the water beach on the ground. The dim street lamps are so oppressive that you can't breathe when you stand at the entrance of the alley, and you suddenly feel like you've returned to the abandoned old streets of the last century.
There were no stars in the sky tonight, and there were faint clouds in the sky, and the light of the full moon barely shone through the uneven tulle into the alley through the cracks in the roof, adding to the eerie atmosphere of the alley. Lin Yang took a deep breath, the anxious escape just now consumed most of the oxygen in his body. Do you want to pass by here? Even his natural boldness could not stop the fear that slowly welled up from the depths of his heart.
Wet, dark, and cramped, such an environment is easy to think of vampires, zombies, and of course, you may encounter sophisticated mana. Hehe! The corners of his mouth curled coldly. I'm not a child anymore, and I'm still so innocent, will I be spanked if my mother knows about it? This kind of self-deprecation could not dispel the fear in his heart, and when he turned around, he could still see the police box opposite, and the two figures flashing on the window, the driver must have told the police uncle what he had encountered. Will the police uncle believe his words? Will he treat his story as a mermaid-like joke, hehe! What would I look like on Uncle Policeman's sketchboard? Looking around, the smooth streets seem to be the only alley that can accommodate people dressed like him!
He had no choice but to bite the bullet into this gloomy alley, surrounded by high-tech modern civilization, maybe those demons and monsters can only exist in people's imagination. The wind inside was very strong, as if there was an invisible force pushing him forward behind him, and he could feel the shabby uneven road under his feet, and occasionally he could feel the sewage on the soles of his shoes, but fortunately, the sewage only reached the soles and toes of his shoes just enough to feel its slight coolness. Every hair on his body stood carefully upright, and his eyes were staring ahead, for fear that he would be pulled into the underworld by a big hand in the dark night.
"Whew..."
With a strange scream, a black shadow swept over his head, and Lin Yang, who was highly concentrated, almost sat on the ground with a fart, and half of the three souls and seven spirits were scared away. The body hiding in the gauze couldn't stop sweating outward. He didn't dare to look at the black shadow in mid-air, for fear of where a terrifying face would appear. With a long tongue with fangs and blood-red, all kinds of terrifying images of vampire werewolves flashed in mind.
He stood there for a long time, the thing jumped over and seemed to disappear, there was no sound, even if he was scared, he couldn't help but glance with his eyes, the dark walls all around, only a few small windows through a little faint light, the glass on the windows has not been wiped for I don't know how many years, and in the dark high place like a lantern hanging high in the air. The alley was calm again, and the sound of water droplets with a terrifying atmosphere seemed to travel through the centuries.
"Drop... Click... Drip... Click! ”
Suddenly! "Squeak..." A long claw scratched the metal, the sound was like a tightrope in the throat, Lin Yang's heart was tangled, his eyes were wide open, but he couldn't breathe.
He had been staring into the darkness for a long time, and a pair of eyes glowing green appeared on the wall, hovering up and down in midair. Lin Yang felt a powerful cold current invade his whole body from his sweat pores, and finally converged on his scalp, and his blood was frozen in a trance.
"Whew..."
The black shadow quickly jumped onto the old street lamp, and the lamp head said that it could not bear its arrival, making a creaking and shaking sound, Lin Yang's heart sank, and the two dark green eyes were even more weird behind the dim street lamp.
Nima, are you going to attack me? Little demon, why should I be afraid of you? Think about the time when you are in the mountains, you don't care about any bobcats and beasts. I remember a night encounter with a hungry wolf, I remember that it looked at me with a hideous face, and its eyes could also emit green light when the moon was empty, and I was still very young at that time, and I was afraid to die, and as a result, how the beast is a beast after all, I was blinded in one eye by a small stone I brought with me, and ran away with a wail. Whatever you are, it's certain that you're not human, even if you're a vampire, and as a brave and tenacious mountain man, I'm going to fight you to the last breath.
He seemed to see the hope of overcoming it, and his heart gradually calmed down, and he knew that what he needed most at the moment was to find a stone, or a hard object like a knife or nail that he could fire. He touched the ground and walls around him with his hands, and there was nothing but wet sand and grass in the alley. He was overwhelmed with disappointment, and the fear he had just dispelled began to take over his soul again. At this time, he had mixed feelings, he wanted to swear to the lamp, he wanted to swear to Aunt Moon, but the indisputable fact took off his powerful disguise and pulled him mercilessly in front of the cruel reality.
He thought of running away and running to the police booth where the driver went to call the police, even if he was taken away by the police uncle who arrived just out of the alley, it was better than being ravaged by vampires and werewolves. His brain spun rapidly, trying to find a hole in the sturdy skull. No matter who prays in front of you, you will always lose your precious dignity. No, don't give up lightly until the last moment, my aunt said so, Blacksmith Li said so, even the missing girl said so, if you don't fight in the face of difficulties, how do you know how strong you are, what is the use of your empty skills if you don't fight in the face of difficulties, even if you are torn to pieces by it, at least you have fought hard and died in glory.
He wanted to face the foreign object on the street lamp with his bare hands, and strangled him directly with his hands, or smashed him to death with his hind legs, but he was going to kill it after all, he thought of a hundred gestures, thought of ten thousand ways to kill him, and demonstrated endlessly in his brain, with only one purpose, to let those fearful blue-faced fangs and bloody mouths escape from his mind.
"Crunch... The crunch" sound became more intense, and he really wanted to clench his fists and rush forward, although there was no audience around him in the middle of the night, and he tried to make his movements as graceful as possible. But as soon as he took a small step forward, the sole of his shoe was pierced by something hard, and the pain instantly sent to his brain. Yes! He tried his best to bite his lip to prevent this joy from reaching the other party's ears, Nima, I should say something, people don't deserve to die, there is always salvation, or there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, it seems that it is not perfect, but I can't think of other more perfect words, so be it! Why should I quarrel with the beauty of my heart?
He didn't dare to squat down immediately, shake his head and look around, pretending to be casual, no matter whether the things on the street lamp can be seen or not, acting should be a must! Then he crouched down coldly, and took the pointed thing that had pierced his foot on the ground with his hand, and when his hand touched it, he was delighted, and the joy of victory appeared in his heart. When he grabbed it and tried to pick it up easily, he realized that the stone was part of the dilapidated concrete road. It may be that the surface of the pavement has just fallen off to reveal its edges and corners.
He grabbed it with his right hand and shook it from side to side, back and forth, and finally the stone with his hope, finally broke a peanut-sized particle with his unremitting efforts.
