Chapter 1: The Road to Survival (I)

He was lying there on all fours, his body was hot and hot, but the pain of the cold made him feel uncomfortable everywhere in his body. In contrast, although last night's hangover has not yet dissipated and his head is groggy, it cannot hide it at all.

"Didn't turn off the air conditioner, or forgot to close the window?"

The cold and damp breeze blew low, and Chen Kai subconsciously struck a spirit. However, when he slowly opened his eyes and saw everything in front of him clearly, his incredible surprise directly provoked him to sit up.

"Where the hell am I?!"

The dim sky was nothing but the cloudiness of the sky or clouds. Just as there was no ceiling or ceiling light in the bedroom, there was not a single brick around, not even a single wall skin or floor, only young grass, old trees, green bamboo, and undulating hills. And the place where he was lying just now was a road between the hills, a dirt road with potholes. If it weren't for the fact that the vegetation had not completely occupied it, and the soil color was exposed to his sight, I was afraid that Chen Kai would not be able to determine it at this moment.

Where is it, this is Chen Kai's first thought, but before the "why is it here" appeared in his mind, he was already stuck in the position of being naked all over his body - don't say it's a mobile phone, wallet, keys or something, even clothes, pants and even underwear ** are gone, how embarrassing.

"What the hell is going on?!"

Nervousness and impatience heat up the body, and the alcohol seems to be sweating through the pores. The groggy energy began to slowly dissipate, Chen Kai covered his head, and gradually recalled yesterday's events. But in the blink of an eye, it was like falling into an ice cellar.

"Holy shit, nine times out of ten, it's the taxi driver's good deeds!"

Everything on his body is gone, and nine times out of ten, he was robbed while he was drunk. And such a place, which seems to be far away from the urban area where he got into a taxi, must have the tools to commit the crime. As for why even the underwear is gone, Chen Kai estimated that nine times out of ten, it was because the perpetrator had the intention of preventing him from reporting the case too early, or reducing the possibility of him reporting the case. Otherwise, there is no way to explain this happening.

The ground was hot by his body, but it was cold after all, especially the extra dampness, which made Chen Kai feel uncomfortable. Standing up, stretching his muscles and bones, looking around, except for this half-deserted dirt road, there was indeed no trace of man-made.

"There's not even a traffic camera, so this place has to be so deserted."

Things have happened, and Chen Kai gradually calmed down. The first thing is to try to save yourself, first find someone to help, then call the police, make a record, and then think about other things, and always follow the steps to get out of the predicament. As for regret, resentment, or self-abandonment, there is no need at all, even if it is just for a second, it is a waste of time.

Thinking of this, Chen Kai calmed down, looked at the surrounding environment, and then looked at the dirt road under his feet, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief - since there is a road, you can always find villages and towns, as long as you find villages and towns, you can find people!

Not knowing where he was, Chen Kai looked into the distance along the dirt road, but there was nothing he wanted to see in the two directions where the dirt road extended, so he had to choose a random direction.

The cold and damp wind blew on the body, and goosebumps were rising, but more importantly, there was nothing to cover the key parts. After walking a few steps, the feeling of being cold in the wind really made Chen Kai uncomfortable, so he simply pulled a vine on the side of the road and tied it around his waist, blocking the largest leaf on it three inches below the umbilicus. Although it can't block the wind, at least it won't be completely exposed, and it's better than nothing.

"Civilized people are trouble, think about primitive society, it's not running around with a bare ass."

He shook his head with a wry smile, and temporarily acquiesced to the dress of this primitive person. Chen Kai breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk in the direction decided.

The dirt road was full of potholes, and from time to time he would step on some small stones, small wooden blocks and the like, and before he had walked thirty or forty steps, Chen Kai had already gasped several times.

After all, wearing shoes on weekdays, lacking enough exercise, and not having that layer of calluses on your feet, it would be strange if it didn't hurt if it didn't hurt just by relying on the skin and flesh to contact the ground.

"Wait, wait for Lao Tzu to find the police uncle, adjust the video of the intersection, don't send you in to pick up soap, I have your surname."

After saying a cruel sentence, Chen Kai slowly sat on the ground, gently kneading his feet to relieve the pain. A pair of eyes are looking around, not hoping to find someone in one step, just to be able to find something that can be used.

After a while, he got up again, crept to a large tree that surrounded him, picked up a piece of bark, and peeled off a half-fallen piece from the old tree, and tied it with a vine by the roadside, and a pair of primitive shoes were all available. "Equipment upgrade", Chen Kai picked up a branch by the way, regarded it as a crutch, and hobbled towards the distance.

The sky was so gloomy that it was oppressive, as if something was going to fall in the next moment. However, after walking for a long time, it was still gloomy, and nothing was left behind, but Chen Kai, who was still walking on the dirt road, gradually felt tired, especially thirsty in his mouth, and the immortals in the Five Organs Temple also began to express their dissatisfaction with neglect of the sacrifice, so that even the pace slowed down.

Chen Kai estimated the time, an hour, two hours, or three hours, there is no way to calculate how long he walked, and even the direction of the sun was lost because of the dense clouds. However, when I looked back, the place where I woke up had long since disappeared at the end of the mountain path, and even the vine that had been used to tie the bark of the tree at my right foot had been broken, but there was still no human being in sight.

"There is a sentence that my mother has to say, the hundreds of dollars in cash in Lao Tzu's wallet are not enough for such a long distance of gas, where is this?"

He threw down his crutches and sat on the ground. Frustration, there are, but more of an urban sub-healthy physique seems to be unable to support the continuation of walking, always have to rest for a while, slow down the strength to continue to walk - after all, this should not be a real primitive society, at least this mountain dirt road, should always lead to a place where human activities are.

Sitting on the ground, Chen Kai gasped, tiredness, hunger, and thirst were intertwined, and his body was also sour, as if he was about to fall apart.

However, although the sun could not be seen, the breeze was getting cooler and cooler. Whether it's really going to rain or the sun is setting, this is not a good thing for Chen Kai. Seeing this, he had no choice but to hold on to his tired body, pull a vine on the side of the road, re-tie the bark, and continue walking.

The sky was getting more and more gloomy, and I don't know how long I walked, but the dirt road in the mountains branched off. Chen Kai looked from afar, and there was still no one in sight in the distance, but he walked down the fork and turned a corner, but there was a strange smell coming from him, and even when he really walked there, it didn't take long for him to see the ridges in the mountains, and even farther away, a small village stood in the col!

"I'll go, and I've finally found a place where there are people."

After a long breath of relief, Chen Kai, who was in high spirits, hurriedly quickened his pace and strode towards the small village. However, the more he walked in that direction, the stronger the strange smell became, and when he approached the ridge, he could already vaguely distinguish that the strange smell seemed to be the stench of rotting proteins.

The steps gradually slowed down, and the crutches became tighter and tighter, not because of exhaustion, but because the smell made him inexplicably nervous.

The steps under my feet are getting slower and slower, but my body is always getting closer. After a long time, Chen Kai had already come to the end of the ridge, and the main road of the small village in the col could already be seen clearly, but everything that appeared in front of him made him stay on the spot.

At first glance, the village is mostly made of adobe, wood and bamboo. The simplicity of the houses is no worse than those poor old areas on TV. There are even doors and windows of some houses that fall in tatters in front of the doors and under the windows, as if caused by brute force.

The houses are lined up on two sides, and a foot-drawn dirt path runs through them. However, there were not only tattered debris scattered on the dirt road, but also the existence of villagers who had fallen horizontally and vertically in the red and black that had already solidified, and there was no shirt on his body like Chen Kai half a day ago.

What's more, these corpses all have no heads!
