Chapter 3: Monsters I Don't Know
Yan Yun's residence is not close to here, and his feet are too slow to walk over, who knows how many changes there will be. Luckily, the set of keys she got out of the house was attached to the spare keys of the car. It's impossible to take a taxi at this point. She soon found her red Santana in the underground garage.
Seeing her start the car, some people showed frightened looks, obviously strange that she was going out.
Despite being underground, people's anxieties and fears seem to have faded β most disasters, countries and governments are the first to rush ahead.
They forgot one thing, the siren never sounded in the midst of such a big movement.
Those people looked at Jiang Xi with pity, they thought that this girl had to leave the underground must have an extremely important bond - for the sake of her parents? For lovers? For the sake of children? For friends? All in all, some people who have to go to the soup and fire.
And Jiang Xi also looked at everyone with pity, they didn't know what they were going to face next.
This kind of public place that is not closed and gathers many people will be the best place to attract zombies.
But what will happen to these people, it's not something she can control.
The car shifted gears and rushed out of the underground garage in one go, the scorching heat that made her shiver. As far as the eye can see, the whole city seems to be burning in hell.
The scene of the crash is still on the street, but thankfully it's the middle of the night, so it doesn't look like it's completely blocked during rush hour. But even then, it takes a bit of effort to walk through the wreckage of various burning vehicles.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at Yan Yun's residence, Jiang Xi turned into the path from the main road, and at this time, a man jumped out and almost threw himself into the car: "Please, save my wife, she is still pregnant with a child." β
Jiang Xi hurriedly slowed down the speed of the car and rolled down the window to look over, there was an unconscious woman lying on the ground on the side of the road, her belly was high and bulging, obviously eight or nine months old. It's just that one of her arms is visibly burned, black smoke is still emitting from her clothes, and there is a large blood stain flowing from under her body.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that she is hopeless in this situation.
What's more, he is not a doctor himself.
"I'm sorry!" Jiang Ji endured compassion and stepped on the clutch.
When the man saw that the car kept speeding up, his eyes suddenly turned red, he picked up something heavy on the ground and threw it over, changing it to a scolding attitude: "Slut of grass and mud horse, why can't you kill this shitty thing!" β
Jiang Xi could understand his mood, did not entangle with him, and retracted his gaze apologetically.
She's not a saint, and she can't save anyone. All she had to do was to quickly meet up with Yan Yun to determine if this best friend's friend was safe.
Ten minutes later, the headlights illuminate the community sign of "Yaji Tiandi". This area is a high-end villa area where only the rich can live in the city, the greening is very good, the building floors are generally not high, and every household has a small courtyard. On weekdays, the security here is strict, and you have to show proof to enter and exit. At this moment, I saw that the iron door to enter and exit was open, three cars collided with each other and rolled smoke, and the security room on the side was empty.
Jiang Xi parked the car farther away, bypassed the pile of cars that could explode at any time, and ran into the park in one go.
The small building where Yan Yun lived was not far from the door, and after walking through a winding path, he saw a circle of pink and white walls, and the anti-theft iron railing on top was still wrapped with dead vines. If it weren't for the big black hole in the swimming pool, everything would look no different than usual. She turned to the iron gate entrance of the small courtyard, and on the balcony on the third floor, a figure could be seen faintly crouching on the fence.
Jiang Ji couldn't help but shout: "Yan Yun! Yan Yun, are you okay? β
At this time, the street lamp on the side sounded twice and suddenly went out. Again, it looked like the lights were off not just on the third floor, but the lights on the entire building were out β there was a power outage.
Jiang Xi's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and in her eyes, the darkness was always connected to the initial fear of human nature.
She hurriedly took out her mobile phone to illuminate it, and kept knocking on the iron door while calling to the third floor.
"Yan Yun, Yan Yun, I'm Jiang Xi. Open the door. Open the door. β
But Yanyun's house was quiet, no one came out, and no one responded to her. Without the lighting, the figure seen in a trance on the top floor was not very distinct, as if it was gone, as if it had never appeared.
In a hurry, she pulled the railing to the side, only to hear a click, it turned out that once the power was off, this kind of smart iron door could be opened with a slight pull.
However, before he could take a few steps towards the yard, he suddenly heard a scream from upstairs, and a figure fell and rolled to the ground.
She didn't use her mobile phone to light it to know who this person was - Yanyun's cousin Zhang Rui.
In the past, Zhang Rui relied on his aunt's partiality to eat his cousin to death. I came to Yan Yun for living expenses in three days. In Yan Yun's words, if she didn't want her mother to be sad, she really wanted to stab this social moth to death with scissors.
Of course, Jiang Xi also hates this person, every time Zhang Rui sees her, he can't wait to put his eyeballs over. Once, when she couldn't bear it anymore, she found a place to teach this thing a hard lesson, so that when she saw her in the future, it was like a mouse seeing a cat.
But although the person who screamed at this time was a very hateful and despised person, Jiang Xi was still shocked, who made him like this?
She crouched down and asked, "What's wrong with you?" β
She was answered only by two low growls that resembled crying. Zhang Rui was obviously very excited, when he fell to the ground, he was no longer in the shape of a normal person, his legs and arms were twisted in a strange appearance, as if he had been tortured by someone with extremely cruel means.
But he didn't die immediately, at least he was still in a strong consciousness at this moment, and his body was undulating violently like a bellows.
His eyes rolled under his swollen purple eyelids, and he tried to say something, when a mouth, and flesh mixed with blood slipped out of his mouthβa severed tongue.
"Who...... Got you like this? Yan Yun, where is she? Jiang Xi hurriedly asked. However, Zhang Rui doesn't expect to say anything in this state.
She thought of the vague figure she had seen on the third floor at the beginning, and immediately raised her phone to take a picture of it. But there was nothing to see but a wall.
"Salt... Dizzy... Blame... Because half of his tongue was missing, Zhang Rui's speech was blurred, a mouthful of blood vomited out, and his whole body twitched like an electric shock.
Jiang Xi was scared, and hurriedly took out her mobile phone to call the police, but unfortunately the phone number of the police station was the same as the emergency number, and it was always busy, and Rao was always sensible, and she couldn't help but scold: "Damn!" β
"Ahh Run... Yes... Death..."Zhang Rui was still saying something, and suddenly, he seemed to see something extremely terrifying, and his whole person twisted in an even more violent amplitude.
Only to hear a movement on the floor, and an agile shadow jumped out of the window and landed on a pine tree. The movements are not like normal people.
"Who is it?" Jiang Xi took the mobile phone to illuminate it, and the figure had already slid down from the tree and turned to the back of the building.
Jiang Xi should be scared at this time, but under impulse, she suddenly jumped up and shouted, "Don't run!" β
Although the black shadow is agile, since it has to land with the help of a tree, the bounce power may not be so amazing, and the mountain behind the house is leaning on a wallpaper, which is three or four meters high and crawling with vines.
She took a deep breath, and it was conceivable that when she ran over, something extremely terrible would pounce on her, and her carelessness would make her have the same ending as Zhang Rui.
But since she has come to this point, she will definitely not retreat.
She crossed her phone and fruit knife in front of her and cautiously walked over. In the light of the mobile phone, a four-limbed object curled up in the corner of the mountain and the building, its back facing her, its back in a variety of colors, at first glance it looked like it was covered with a layer of special skin mixed with the hair of various beasts.
Sensing the movement, the thing turned its head sharply and roared at her, and the moment it faced Jiang Xi, Jiang Xi noticed that two long, sharp canine teeth burst out of her hairy face.
It's not people, what is this?! Jiang Xi's pupils subconsciously constricted, and she hurriedly took two steps back.
The grappling hand that she has learned by heart for a long time is the occasional sneak attack on the muscular adult male, and it may also have the upper hand. But if it was an animal in front of her that was agile and the murder weapon was exposed, and this thing seemed to have an IQ, the confidence she had was a little vain.
Almost at the same time, the thing was already rushing towards her.
Despair suddenly flashed on Jiang Xi's face, so fast!
Instinctively, she steadied herself, and the moment the thing swooped down on her, she stabbed it in the abdomen as she swooped down. The tip of the knife is tough to the touch, but it doesn't separate its skin.
It's just that this action annoys the thing.
It jumped three or four meters away from her and let out a low, angry growl at her.
Jiang Xi's mind was even more chaotic, the blade was too short and too blunt to be fatal to this thing.
didn't have time to think about more of her disadvantages, the thing pounced again at a faster speed, this time Jiang Xi was bitten on the shoulder before she could raise the knife, she let go of the fruit knife with a scream, and then was slapped on the back by gravity, and the whole person rolled into the bushes on the side.
It turns out that the first blow can be hit by itself, and the other party is simply underestimating the enemy!
In addition, Jiang Xi hit a stone on her forehead when she landed, which made her whole person sluggish. She was supposed to be unconscious.
It's good to tell you to be strong. She tried to give herself a mocking smile, but her consciousness still fell uncontrollably into the darkness.
But deeper in her subconscious, a voice kept reminding her of "danger, danger".
She knew the danger, but now that she was buried in the bushes, and no one could find her, it would be easier than going out and fighting the monster just now.
She thought so, and it wasn't until she heard an even more terrible scream that she jerked up.
It's Zhang Rui!
