Chapter 69: The Old District (2)
Karl followed Constan into the old district, and the entrance they had chosen was in the factory area, a place that had been abandoned for five or six years, and the outer walls were as uneven as if they had been gnawed by something.
From a distance, you can see the grass swaying from side to side, and the stones that have fallen off due to disrepair.
In short, on the surface it does not look like a factory at all, more like a ruin. However, before the disaster, there were quite a few people who came here to play war-games, and there were even some couples who came here to do something unspeakable.
Now, when the people are gone, the emptiness, the dead silence, the decay is gradually revealed.
The flowing rags, and the looming darkness, add a touch of unspeakable terror to this abandoned steel mill.
Of course, the two of them didn't die enough to voluntarily enter the nightmare areas that they couldn't describe in words, they just walked on the sunlit path.
"Are you sure you can get through here?" Carl asked, with his hands in his trouser pockets, as he walked.
The terrain of the factory was more like a garbage dump after five or six years of abandonment, and the steel branches and steel frames were detached from their original positions and clogged into the middle of the road, leaving only some passages that looked like dogs' holes.
Looking at it, there is also a heavy-duty steel furnace of hundreds of tons lying directly in the center of the road, and even the roadbed is crushed and cracked, and some cracks even extend to dozens of meters away.
"Well, I haven't been here for a week, and it seems that the situation has worsened a bit, but if it is just passed, it should not be a problem." Constance also replied with a look of astonishment, and a bead of sweat broke out on his forehead.
"It's good to be able to pass, and if it's troublesome, it's troublesome." Carl didn't care, for him, it wasn't a problem to be able to pass.
The two stopped next to a factory office building, identified the correct route at the junction, and set off again.
The path seemed to be narrower than the previous one, and there were some sharp nails on the road from time to time, and they didn't dare to step on them even if they wore thick shoes.
The whole process is done carefully, who knows if there will be a bloody hole in the soles of the feet, if only this is not the most serious, what makes people frightening is the subsequent symptoms.
In the absence of medical conditions, it is simply a certain death, so everyone has already learned these small details.
If you pay more attention to your life, why not?
"The road is blocked, there is no way but to climb over it, as long as you are careful, it shouldn't be a problem."
Looking at the steel frame scrap iron in front of him, Constan's head was big, he didn't expect that after not coming for a week, the road conditions would become like this.
Are these buildings really that poor?
He rubbed his dizzy temples, and if the situation worsened, he was afraid that he would have to change course next time.
"I don't think I've ever been lucky for a day." Karl spread his hands and said helplessly.
This was the case the first time, the second time, and the same now. So is it possible to award him a title, such as - "Black Crown of the Year?" ”
Well... There doesn't seem to be anything controversial...
"Boy, can you climb?" Constance asked.
"Of course I can, I learned it in junior high school."
Karl looked up and replied lightly, then his eyes flashed slightly, revealing a hint of concern, and said, "But, are you sure that after we climb up, this pile of things will not collapse?" ”
"Probably not, right?" Constance stomped on it a few times, and it didn't seem to let go of it.
In this case, the safety will not be too low, and I believe that as long as you don't jump around, you don't have to worry about landslides.
After all, these steel frame scrap iron is not loose sediment, even if it has been corroded for five or six years, it is not comparable to those sediment, and there is an essential difference between the two.
"I'll go up first."
As he spoke, Constance stepped on it with a light step, climbing up with his hands and feet.
When it was Carl's turn, a cold wind suddenly blew behind him, making him gasp.
It's cold......
What is it?
He frowned and looked back suspiciously, his eyes fixed on the place in the factory.
There were neatly arranged rows of machines, and in a place where the sunlight could not shine, stood a lifeless black figure, tilting his head and waving his right hand strangely, looking at him from a distance.
The moment their eyes met, a cold chill wrapped around his heart, causing the temperature around him to drop dramatically.
Ghosts!?
Carl's pupils shrank, and his heart shook violently, it was a mysterious ghost creature in that place in the supermarket on Pitt Street, how did it come to this place? How did it happen to find me? Or have you been following me?
Compared to the last time, it is obviously a little weirder this time. Some unexplained actions were made.
And, most likely, all along, the feeling of peeping comes from it.
Ghosts actually stalk humans?
A fact......
"Hey, boy, why haven't you come up yet?"
Constance asked, standing at the top of the steel stack, waving his hand urging Carl to hurry up.
"Oh no, look at the ...... over there"
But, in the middle of the conversation, Karl stopped, for the feeling was gone, and when he looked again, there were no black figures there, only a bunch of old machines, lying there quietly.
"Gone?"
His expression froze for a moment, if it weren't for the eyes that believed him, he would have almost hallucinated later.
"Boy, what are you talking nonsense? You're not sick, are you? ”
Constantine looked at Carl with a sluggish look and thought that something had happened to Carl's body.
"Anyway, you have to be careful in the future." Carl took a cool breath, secretly vigilant in his heart.
If there are two things in the world that cannot be captured, the first is the human heart, then the second must be an indescribable ghost.
It can be seen how terrifying ghosts are......
"It's okay...... Just thinking about something. Karl shook his head and replied.
He didn't say it just because he didn't want to reveal his special abilities, and if he said it, it wouldn't change anything, and he would even be thought to be a brain trauma before he spoke nonsense.
So, there was no need for him to do such superfluous things.
Because, it's not worth it.
"Well, it's okay, come up quickly! We had to get to the Capitol before sunset. ”
Seeing that Carl began to climb, Constance hurriedly stretched out his right hand and said.
"Don't worry!" Karl smiled, grabbed his calloused hand with one hand, and jumped lightly.
Standing on a high place, the vision of the two of them became broader, and there was just a feeling of seeing the mountains at a glance, which was convenient for the two to make a route.
