CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER 126 THE RULES OF THE TAXI DRIVER'S WORLD
"Anyway, where should I go to find the evil thought incarnation of the driver in such a big place? Since this place is similar to the world of Silent Hill, could there be a gathering place for humans as well? The reason why the driver didn't give us any hints is probably because even if he gave us information, his evil thoughts would be the first to know, so it was better not to say anything, so as not to mislead us."
Zhang Chen sat in the hall of the publishing house and guessed.
"Hmm, hmm~~!" At this moment, the sound of sirens spread throughout the silent downtown area from all the sound equipment in the city that could make sounds.
The world is coming! For the average person, it can be said to be a nightmare. However, for Zhang Chen and the others, the so-called Li World may have nothing to fear.
"Some of the ordinary creatures in the world in Silent Hill are actually corrupted by ordinary people, and I don't know if the brain structure has been damaged."
In the originally neat hall, the fading surface layer reveals the dirty side of the interior after the alarm sounds.
Groups of humanoid monsters, their hands clasped behind their backs by splintered iron, their bodies twisted into the hall from the outside.
Zhang Chen grabbed one of them and used his telekinesis to extract his memory. Unexpectedly, the brains of corrupted humans are still intact, and the memory area is not damaged.
"This building doesn't seem to have been seen in Changsha City? It seems that the world here is still a little different from the outside world."
The memories extracted by Zhang Chen recorded the memories of this person before he was corrupted, and sure enough, as Zhang Chen guessed, this person was one of the refugees in this world before his death. During a trip to search for food, he accidentally fell into a trap and was trapped in the inner world. Corrupted by monsters.
However, the gathering place of the asylum seekers in this world is located in a huge cellar in the middle of the city, and there is no zài in the real world. At the same time, in the Corruptor's memory, there was a very visible sign above the cellar, a 'human statue', but the proportions of the statue were not very symmetrical, and the head of the statue was large, almost the size of its body.
"The driver!?" Zhang Chen looked at the face of the statue. It's true that it looks exactly the same as the driver, but the whole person's temperament and feeling are completely different." Could it be that this statue depicts the evil incarnation of the driver?"
After Zhang Chen had an idea, he took Xiao Nirvana through the inner world, thinking that there were only some corrupt minions in the inner world. Who knew that after moving a certain distance, he found a relatively powerful big guy and a tragic evacuee who didn't calculate the time to escape.
The location is on the shores of a medium-sized lake. A man wrapped in sackcloth ran towards the central shelter with endless fear in his eyes, a large group of corruptors chasing after him.
However, as the man passed by the shore of the lake, he suddenly received a very elegant and familiar voice in his eardrums.
The whole person suddenly stopped, and the corrupt person who was chasing after the man revealed a trace of fear on his already hideous face, and immediately dispersed towards the surroundings, disappearing into the thick white mist.
The surface of the lake, which was covered by white mist, gradually dispersed. Only a little white mist was left scattered on the surface of the lake.
Suddenly, strands of black hair and brown-green aquatic plants appeared in the middle of the lake, slowly gushing upwards out of the water. Immediately after, a woman in a yellow raincoat stood up from the middle of the lake.
"Xiaoqi?" The man's mouth couldn't help but mutter. Seems to know the woman. And the figure slowly moved towards the lake, and it seemed that the relationship between the two was very close.
If all the faint fog on the lake is cleared at this time, you can see a huge black shadow looming under the surface of the lake through the clear water.
The woman stepped on the water and walked slowly towards the shore. Seeing that the two are about to meet on the shore. The woman who was still smiling before suddenly her face became stiff and her mouth was wide open.
A huge suction cup spat out from deep in his throat and pressed it against the terrified man's face.
"Huh!"
Suddenly, a dark golden light came down from above, cutting off the sucker. The frightened man sat on the wet shore with trembling lower body.
I saw a red-haired young man after saving himself. Reflexively, he split his girlfriend's body into two pieces.
"Whew!"
A loud, angry cry resounded throughout the lake, and a large number of splashes of water splashed. A behemoth rises out of the water.
After the water fell, the man was presented with a pitch-black creature similar to a squid, but the squid's body was composed of resentful spirits with hideous faces and mouths wide open, and the number was hundreds or thousands. Each resentful soul revealed a wail, a wailing voice, a sound that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, scaring the man's crotch with a smell of urine.
However, the young man in front of him, the double knives in his hands turned rapidly, and his feet jumped hard, heading straight for the resentful squid.
Beneath the surface of the water, hundreds of squid tentacles composed of resentful spirits shot out quickly, but they were all dodged by the red-haired young man's very sensitiveness, and finally came to the top of the squid's head, slashing down vertically with two knives.
Countless resentful spirits flew towards the white sky, leaving only the shriveled giant squid floating in the lake.
"What's your name?" Zhang Chen appeared beside the other party with worm fireflies at some point.
"I ...... My name is Park Fangshin."
"My name is Zhang Chen, and this is my friends Xiao Ni and Worm Firefly."
"Will you take me to your shelter? I'll keep you safe along the way." In the process of Zhang Chen's speech, he also used mental control to make a small means in the man's brain.
"Okay, thank you for saving me, please come with me."
"Let's go to the clothing store next to me and change my clothes. [,! Anyway, time has passed in the world."
"Okay." The man nodded very embarrassedly, changed into light clothes after going ashore, walked in front and led Zhang Chen to the shelter.
"Is the woman you turned into a monster your girlfriend?" Zhang Chen began to chat with the man leading the way.
"Hehe, more than ten years ago, she is my wife. The first day we both got caught up here, she was killed by a monster. I knew she was dead, but when I saw the scene just now, I realized that I still had a trace of luck in my heart." The man didn't show much sadness, it seemed like a long time had passed.
"You've been here for more than ten years?" Zhang Chen couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"The longest time to come in the vault is an octogenarian, who has been in here for almost seventy years since he was a young man."
"Seventy years!" Zhang Chen couldn't believe it, and at the same time had doubts, and he couldn't see through this taxi driver.
"You're new to coming in, or are you ...... Monsters?" The man asked, swallowing his saliva.
"Have you ever seen a monster come out at a normal time?" Zhang Chen asked rhetorically.
"Then you're just being brought in, aren't you? It's strange that usually new people will show up at the door of the shelter when they are brought in, where did you come from?"
"We came in from near the publishing house." Zhang Chen told the truth.
"Publisher!?It's a long way from here, huh? Could it be that you have come all the way? It's no wonder that with this person's ability, how could an ordinary monster hurt you." The man looked at Xiao Nirvana intentionally.
"If everyone knew how good you were, they would be happy. One thing I'm sure you've all noticed, it's a lot like a movie called Silent Hill. But don't worry, our shelter isn't like in the movies. We all live together very together."
Seeing that the man seemed to open his heart, Zhang Chen continued to ask, "What is the total number of evacuees here?"
"No, there were only five hundred, and they always kept that number. As soon as someone is killed by a monster or becomes a Corruptor, a new person will be captured into the world and the total number of people will remain the same. It's like if you hadn't rescued you before, it wouldn't be long before a new person would appear at the door of the shelter when the inner world is over."
"Could it be that the three of us are also the three who died in place of you?"
"Well, Xiaoping, Ah Dong and Ah Ding, they died in the last time."
The man's answer made Zhang Chen feel a little strange, "According to the time, I'm afraid I just confronted the Blood Demon when I was in the world last time, could it be that the taxi driver knew that we would definitely need his help at that time and came to him?"
"How often do dead people happen?" Zhang Chen continued to ask.
"It's rare, because the coming of the inner world is very regular. As long as you take refuge in a shelter before it comes, it may take an average of a month for a person to die. It's just that in the recent extraordinary times, we have a problem with food supply, so we have to go to a distant place to search for food, and we can't get to the shelter in time." The man said helplessly.
"Food? Food in the supermarket? After so many years, isn't it possible that it will not rot and deteriorate?"
"No, we've tried to see a fruit on the ground and it's still as fresh as it was for the past few months. And every ten months, the supermarket automatically adds a new batch of goods. This month is the last month of the 10-month cycle, so we have run out of food from the nearby supermarkets, so we have no choice but to go to the supermarkets farther away."
As soon as the man said this, Zhang Chen felt even more strange about the taxi driver's behavior, and the driver's purpose was even more incomprehensible.
Zhang Chen didn't ask, and when everyone followed the man to the city center and saw the entrance to the cellar, Zhang Chen asked again pretending to be suspicious
"What is this statue? There shouldn't be such a strange proportion, right? Is it someone inside the vault?"
"This ...... This man is the root of all evil here, and I've only heard about it. For everyone who met him was dead, but there was one person in the vault who knew something. If you want to know, I can take you and ask."
"Well, let's go down first." Zhang Chen followed the man towards the shelter...... (To be continued)
