Order of Nothingness Chapter 8 Asking for Help—Borrowing Life
Speaking of which, Liang Qin is also lucky. Because she was so easily saved by a person who was plagued by an occupational disease, but she didn't know it yet.
In a daze, of course she didn't know where she was! I don't even know what I look like now. But one thing can be assured, at least she is out of the life of exile, and does not have to starve to death on the deserted streets alone.
But thinking about these experiences, it's still a little scary.
"Statues, statues, statues of swords forged into ploughshares!" Liang Qin screamed and got up, but her forehead hit the bridge of Xiao Junyan's nose accurately. "Eh, are you alright?" Li Yiquan looked at Liang Qin with a little dissatisfaction.
"You'd better slow down! Besides, you won't have a nightmare at another time! Li Yiquan looked at Xiao Junyan who was smashed in the nose distressedly, "Uh, forget it, you better hurry up and tell us how you got hurt!" ”
Xiao Junyan changed the subject. "Well, here's the thing," Liang Qin recounted:
I've always lived here, I don't have anything to rely on and nothing to worry about. In the past, when my brother was still at home, I still had a head; There are also occasional times when I play petty in front of my brother.。
It's just a change in the order of time that swallows it all up.
I just hope that I can survive and live like this again. Many people say that it is almost impossible to survive in such a hellish order on earth.
Such an invisible curse may have befallen me.
There are very few households here, and I have less than 5 households. A few years ago, two elderly families passed away one after another; Later, a young couple committed suicide by jumping off a building for unknown reasons, and I was woken up in the middle of the night.
There is also a family of three, which is said to have moved to another place to settle down because this place is too desolate; Later, the newspaper said that three people were driving on a rainy night on a mountain road; I don't know if it's because the road is muddy and rugged, or because it's dark and I can't see the road clearly, plus it's raining, a family of three and a car fell off the mountain road; When I found it, the human was already a blur of flesh and blood.
Well, here's why I got hurt:
I felt like I was the only one left here, I lost my last hope in life, and I stumbled away; I don't know where I'm going, but I just want to go wherever I want.
But when I found out the sad reality that the outside world couldn't keep me alive anyway, I chose to come back.
In that case, we have to pull on the statue near my house, which is a statue that everyone has named "Sword Forged into Ploughshares". I don't know why, but when I came here, I felt a tremendous force penetrate my body.
It wasn't until the pain and fear pulled me back to reality that I collapsed. I don't know anything until now before your eyes.
Liang Qin's story is over.
"You mean, you were injured by an unknown figure before forging your sword into a plowshare?" Xiao Junyan's eyes widened, and there was a hint of fear in his blue-black eyes.
"But there's no one else here! In addition to the signs of your life, your neighbors have left one after another. Don't...... So, what did this statue look like when it first arrived there? ”
"This ......" Liang Qin's question to Xiao Junyan was very strange, what is worth asking? But she still said truthfully: "The statue ...... Isn't that what it is! It's good, everybody knows it's a symbol of peace. It's been built for a long time. ”
It's equivalent to not saying it...... Xiao Junyan sighed.
"So, what do we see?" Xiao Junyan turned his head, but he couldn't see the strange statue anyway, so, what about the statue?!
"No, Li Yiquan, you can take her out of here first. I'll go back as soon as possible. ”
"Alright then, just go straight down this road, I'll take them first. Be careful on your way! By the way, you don't really have to do that. Even if you find out something, what's the point? Although Li Yiquan understood that it was impossible to move Xiao Junyan with these few words, she still couldn't help but do it:
This is a time of chaos and an era of extinction. No one is trying to figure out what this is all about; There is no discipline to care about; Like the outlaws who drank and gambled for their lives, who cares who kills whom? The lives and deaths of others are always so insignificant, and even more so in this zero-rule order.
What did Liang Qin just say? The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. Statues, statues, statues..... Could it be that the statue has been resurrected?! Or is it just given the same level of life as a human for some reason? But that's why, why is there such a result!
In the distance, a childish voice rang out.
"Brother, brother!" With a crying voice, I could hear that the little boy was shouting Xiao Junyan. "Huh? What's the matter with you, little brother? ”
"Brother, my pet puppy doesn't seem to know me anymore. It screamed at everyone, including me...... I almost got bitten by it just now. Yes, can you help? When Xiao Junyan was a police officer, he also came into contact with police dogs, so he tried to help the boy.
Xiao Junyan squatted down and gently stroked the puppy's furry head. The puppy seemed to have known Xiao Junyan for a long time, rubbing Xiao Junyan's hand affectionately and no longer barking.
"No, it's not calling anymore."
"Ah, thank you!"
"Hey, Arnold, what are you doing again!" A man came out from behind the boy named Xiaonuo, and walked with a limp, looking pale, as if he had some incurable disease, and dirty; After all, it doesn't make a good impression.
"Dad, it was this brother who helped me cure the dog! It's become a lot better. The man didn't pay attention to Xiao Nuo, he looked at Xiao Junyan with a complicated expression: "Where are you going?" "I don't know, even though there are some troubles, but everyone has bigger problems. So I should keep going. "Oh! Thank you! ”
"Strange, who is that man, it looks disgusting. But it's a little familiar," Xiao Junyan muttered to himself, really couldn't figure out who he was.
In any case, it is the best policy to go back to Li Yiquan first.
Xiao Junyan never thought that although he also had female colleagues when he was in the police station, it was impossible for men and women to live in the same house in the house rented by the unit; Now the order is chaotic, and even the life is chaotic!
No one has gone to work in the police station for a long time, and there was actually nothing big to do earlier, but Xiao Junyan's work has been useless in the past few years.
It's just that I didn't expect that Li Yiquan, who had been pestering him since he was in middle school, has now appeared again. I also sent a ghost to live with a group of female "roommates"!
But the blame is on this chaotic era, the rented house in the police station has long been repossessed by the landlord, and he has worked for less than two years, and the money he has saved is not enough to eat a few seafood meals in a high-end restaurant.
The phone rang with a melancholy atmosphere.
The voice on the phone: "Xiao Junyan, come back quickly, you won't be unable to find your way, right?" "Why, a little boy just asked me for help, so I was delayed a little bit."
"Oh, wait, what are you talking about?! A little boy looking for your help?! Does he have any characteristics? "No, it's just a puppy with me." There was silence on the other end of the line.
There was silence for 3 minutes.
It must have been Liang Qin who called this time, because he had hardly heard her voice a few times, and it seemed a little unfamiliar.
"I must tell you, come back as soon as possible! You're in trouble. And it's extremely troublesome! Come back soon, we'll pick you up along the way! Fast! Don't miss a moment! ”
Liang Qin hung up the phone in a hurry, because she didn't have time to explain so much.
When he returned, she would tell everyone that there were no little boys in the neighborhoods she remembered, only old people, young couples, and little girls.
There is no puppy even more.
The last time she saw a little boy holding a dog was when she was away from home. She still vividly remembers that the boy with the puppy was mercilessly swept under a bus and was run over beyond recognition.
Xiao Junyan hung up the phone. Behind him, the sound of a hula car sounded. Xiao Junyan hurriedly turned around, but he was a few seconds late.
The car crashed into Xiao Junyan's body accurately, driving him a few meters away and slamming him to the ground; Xiao Junyan could barely hold down the bubbling blood with his hands.
He looked up with difficulty, and saw the child who had come to him for help and the well-behaved dog standing there motionless, as if they were dead. Glancing at Xiao Junyan expressionlessly, the boy turned his face away again and played with the puppy.
"Who the hell are you?" The driver got out of the car. That's right, it's the man with a disastrous face just now. But now, his face has changed and he has become much more energetic, like a normal person.
"Haha, thank you, Mr. Xiao Junyan. With half of your life, I'm finally what I am now. "What do you mean?" "People who understand don't need me to say it a second time." The man shook his head. "This is the order of nothingness, a new order. To die is to live; To live is to die. We've met for a long time, you won't forget it so quickly, will you? The man smiled mysteriously.
That's the scariest thing.
"You injured Liang Qin and hit people here, but who are they?!"
"Haha, what do you think? Bullets that are exploited do not need to be given a new lease of life. The man said very implicitly, "Now look at them again, and see who is asking you for help." ”
Two bloody corpses lay quietly beside Xiao Junyan.
It can also be vaguely distinguished, it is a boy and a puppy.
