Chapter Twenty-Eight: What Is Hidden in the Dangerous Building?
Hu San's movements paused, and he quickly raised his head with his eyebrows twisted: "How do you know?" ”
Uncle Lu stared at the ground in the distance and sighed, "Although red gravel is rare here, how can you be sure that this is from the dangerous building?" Who would build a building in such a deserted place and put a telephone in it? I don't even see signal or electricity here. ”
At first glance, I felt that what Uncle Lu said was very reasonable, but after thinking about it, I felt a little strange. What happened along the way didn't make sense, and if the number on the dangerous building could really crack the code as Hu San said, then it would be strange that it wasn't built in an inaccessible place.
Hu San waved his hand at Uncle Lu without raising his head, and continued to rummage in the gravel with his hands intently. Uncle Lu shook his head, sighed and walked to the side, sitting on the red sea to rest. Although I also had some thoughts of disbelief, I saw that Hu San was sweating very hard, so I squatted down and rummaged through it with him.
Most of the gravel has not a single trace on it, and there is only dust and soil particles. During the search, I found that the gravel was of different sizes, and the surface was pitted, some of which looked like bricks had been shattered.
I grabbed several handfuls in a row, but I didn't find a single one with words, just when my legs were sore, hot and impatient and wanted to give up, I suddenly heard Hu San gasp and let out a low breath.
My heart beat faster and I hurriedly asked, "What did you find?" ”
Hu San's eyes lit up, he didn't like to cut his hands with gravel, he kept rubbing it with his two fingers, glanced at Uncle Lu with an expressionless face, and smiled at me: "I found a baby." ”
I was quite excited, jumped up and copied the grit in his hand, looked down carefully, and a line of small words came into view: 444000890. My heart trembled violently, could it be that this string of numbers that had been dangling in front of my eyes was the key to unlocking something?
Zhang Siyuan, who came over to see the excitement, was also very surprised, he grabbed Hu San's clothes violently, and shouted: "Don't sell Guanzi, hurry up and pour out all the things in your stomach, my heart is scorched." ”
Hu San glanced at Uncle Lu, and then looked at the four pairs of eyes that were staring at him tightly, so he had to speak: "That dangerous building is real, but I don't know its specific location, I only know that it is in the Taklamakan Desert. When the chief controller was still 'alive', he once mentioned to me about the dangerous building, and he said that there was a terrifying thing hidden in it, but that thing would also bring people what they wanted. ”
I looked around warily and asked, "What exactly does it bring?" How can we meet everyone's needs if they want different things? ”
Hu San shook his head and smiled slightly: "Although everyone's needs are different, there are always some that all human beings need, such as money and immortality. ”
I was stunned, and a lot of questions and thoughts rushed out, making me very confused for a while. Zhang Siyuan pointed to the grit in his hand and asked, "Then what does this have to do with these mysterious passwords?" ”
Uncle Lu, who had been silent, suddenly answered: "If you can find the grit with a specific number written on it, you can decipher a string of numbers, and you can know something you shouldn't know based on this string of numbers." ”
Wang Linshuo glanced at the piece of gravel, which was only slightly larger and had nothing special about it, and asked, "The specific number is 44400890, what digital code can you crack?" ”
Zhang Siyuan pinched up the gravel with two fingers, looked at it over and over, frowned and pressed the tip of his nose against the gravel, and sighed after a while: "I don't seem to see anything special." ”
Hu San snatched it over, flexed his fingers, and muttered, "Solid, there seems to be no secret in it." ”
Wang Zhen said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "It won't be a number of spots and edges, right?" I can't think of anything else. ”
Hu San scolded: "Damn, how can there be a ridge on this? There are still a lot of spots, like pockmarked faces. ”
I was about to come over to take a closer look, but suddenly I felt a large shadow loom in front of me.
I was startled, and hurriedly looked up, but found that the sky was overcast at some point, and the sun that was showing off its might just now disappeared at this moment, although the desert was still hot and heavy without a little wind, but it still felt much cooler than just now. Wang Linshuo said with some concern: "Won't it be another omen before the big storm?" ”
Uncle Lu frowned and stared at the sky, biting his lip and sniffing the air, and after a while, he said confidently: "Probably not, there is no wind, and the air does not smell abnormal." ”
At this moment, I couldn't help but think of Katsuko again, and thought to myself that it would be nice if he was here, and I don't know if he would be dead or alive at the moment. I turned my head in regret, only to catch a glimpse of an unusually tall, never-before-seen figure standing with his back to us not far away.
All my goosebumps exploded at once, and my cold hairs stood up, and in an instant, I had already clenched the gun in my hand, and trembled and pointed at him with the muzzle of the black hole, and threatened in a low voice: "Who? ”
Before my words landed, Wang Zhen's bullet had already been sent out. I tried to stop it, but it was too late, so I stared at the stranger with trepidation. The bullet whizzed through his body in an instant, but to the chill of his back, he didn't even tremble, and still stood motionless.
I gasped and thought about turning around and running. Wang Zhen cursed, pulled the bolt and was about to fire a second shot, but was stopped by Zhang Siyuan suddenly. He stared at the stranger's back, lowered his voice and said nervously, "Wait first, it seems to be a dead man." ”
Wang Zhen was suspicious, lowered the muzzle of the gun, squinted his eyes and observed for a long time, then glanced at Zhang Siyuan and said: "If it is a dead person, a bullet can be put down, why is he still upright and motionless now?" I just shot him in the head. ”
My heart trembled, could it be that this is a zombie? I don't have a black donkey's hooves at hand, so that's it. Hu San couldn't bear it, grabbed the gun and touched it lightly, and the words I blocked couldn't jump out of his throat, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead and hesitating to follow.
Hu San tentatively touched the past, every step he took touched my heart, I held my breath, my palms were full of sweat, and my brain was blank. But when he was still more than ten meters away from the stranger, he suddenly stopped and hummed suspiciously.
The cold hairs all over my body stood up, and I was already on the highest alert, and my body trembled uncontrollably. Uncle Lu had the audacity to suppress his voice and shouted, "What? ”
Hu San, who was stunned in place, ignored us at all, suddenly raised his wrist, shot a series of bullets at lightning speed, and then ran away. I watched as the bullets rushed into his skull, the smell of blood and decay coming at me, but his body shook slightly, and even the head on his neck had no intention of falling off.
I was dumbfounded, and there was only one thought left in my mind: this is a monster with the incorruptible body of King Kong! Zhang Siyuan's face turned pale with fright, and he pointed at him with a trembling finger and shouted: "There must be a bug in his program, why can't so many bullets explode!" ”
Hu San was out of breath, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his whole face. Seeing that the monster had not moved for the time being, he said to me with a gloomy face: "I just found that there was no bullet hole in his head at all, and I obviously saw the bullet piercing his head with my own eyes, but why is there no trace at all?" ”
I couldn't help but feel a chill all over my body, and the tone of my voice changed, and I asked, "Is there even no blood?" ”
Hu San shook his head with a calm face, stared at the one who was motionless as if he was standing guard, hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go around to the front for a while, are you willing to follow me and be ready to help me with firepower at any time?" ”
My legs were still trembling, but my damn curiosity came out of place. Hu San stopped Wang Zhen, who had already walked a few hundred meters, and Uncle Lu, who was about to raise his gun, and took a deep breath and said, "I'll go, if there's anything, I'll run faster than you." He pointed at me, "Give him another gun." ”
With a gun in both hands and a dagger pinned to my waist, I followed behind Hu San nervously. He straightened his back, tried his best not to make too much noise, and held his gun and touched it quietly. The distance of a few hundred meters made me feel as scared as if I was walking on a tightrope bridge, my mouth was dry and bitter, my muscles were tense and stiff, and I couldn't pronounce a single syllable.
As we distanced ourselves, I began to see the monster clearly. He was unimaginably tall, maybe he would be a few centimeters taller than Yao Ming. But he wasn't burly, and there were many visible corpse spots on his exposed slear, thin limbs.
