Chapter 6: Seeing the Light Again
The city of vain death in hell is a place where the underworld distributes those ghosts who are full of resentment after vain death and cannot be reincarnated, or ghosts who have countless bad karma in life. Wang Haoren died in a natural disaster, and naturally he also belonged to the category of vain death, so he was sucked into this vain city by the rules of heaven and earth. He had to die in vain and kill his grievances before he could be reincarnated normally. Although there is no need to be tortured like the ghosts of countless bad karma, the city of the dead floats on the Huangquan River, and every noon, the city of the dead will sink to the bottom of the Huangquan River. The ghosts of the city are soaked in the yellow spring water, washing their souls and dissipating their grievances. While the yellow spring water consumes resentment, it will also consume the origin of the soul, and the ghosts that can't hold on will be scattered. Ghosts that are unwilling to be scattered will devour other ghosts to strengthen themselves. But once they devour other ghosts, they will become unsane ghosts, and they cannot be reincarnated until their bad karma is gone.
But I don't know when the ghost who was responsible for maintaining the order of the city suddenly disappeared. Originally, once they devoured other ghosts and turned into ghosts, the ghosts would throw the ghosts into hell as soon as possible. But now that there are no ghosts, the city of vain death has become the result of resentful spirits running rampant and devouring each other. Wang Haoren absorbed countless soul crystal energy to nourish his soul before his death, and the power of his soul was extremely strong, and he had the reminder of the revived Lin Hao, so he did not devour other ghosts and become resentful spirits. Wang Haoren and Lin Hao broke out of the city of vain death together, jumped into the reincarnation platform along the Huangquan River, because they did not belong to the normal reincarnation, they were rejected by the rules of reincarnation and thrown out, so that Wang Haoren had to be reborn. As for why it was reborn at this time, it is not known.
Now the disaster has just struck, after the meteorite rain. Wang Haoren and his fellow workers in the construction team were trapped in the basement when the debris from the meteorite collapsed blocked their way out. If nothing changes, tomorrow they will be able to dig a way out and get back to the surface. At that time, a unit evacuated from the city will pass by, and the troops will stop, carry the construction materials from the construction site, and take them to the rescue base by the way, so Wang Haoren is not in a hurry now. Wang Haoren, who was reclining on the bed, sat up, packed some clothes, instant noodles, drinks and other things, and packed them in a half-person high mountaineering bag. Then after eating and drinking, he leaned on the head of the bed, taking advantage of the fact that the water and electricity communication has not been interrupted, playing with his mobile phone, watching the news, and downloading maps.
Wang Haoren has two brothers in his family, and his parents have passed away early. The eldest brother Wang Haoquan, who is 23 years old this year and three years older than him, cannot use a mobile phone when he is a soldier in the army, and he can't contact him now, he only knows that the eldest brother's troops are in the northwest. In the last few decades, Wang Haoren also went north several times to look for his eldest brother, but he never found it, which is his biggest regret. The Internet is full of news about zombies biting and eating people, but those bricks and beasts say that this is just an individual phenomenon, so that everyone does not have to worry about it, the horse will run, dance and dance, and it will be solved soon.
"Xiao Wang, are you okay?" At this time, there was a shout outside the door, which was the voice of Uncle Liu Kui next door.
"Uncle Liu, I'm fine, how are you?" Wang Haoren got up and opened the door and said.
"I'm fine, do you still have anything to eat? I also have two cases of instant noodles and half a dozen beers. Liu Kui said enthusiastically.
"I have something to eat, I just had a meal, I drank a bottle of beer, and I'm watching the news to pass the time." Wang Haoren said to him.
"Alas, the exit is blocked by stones, let's go and see if we can dig a way out." Liu Kui said to Wang Haoren.
"Okay." After speaking, Wang Haoren took out the battery of the mobile phone and opened it separately. He knew that all the devices that were connected to electricity would be destroyed by the radiation waves and particle streams that came with it in the next day or two. If the battery is not removed, the phone will burn. Carrying a hoe in the room, Wang Haoren and Liu Kui went to find other workers together.
In this basement, there are usually more than 50 people. Today is the New Year's Day holiday, and many people have gone out to play and have not come back. Fifteen of the remaining people who didn't go out, or who came back, were trapped here. Everyone took out their tools and dug out. They were all construction workers, and it was only a matter of time before they dug a way out. Resting in turns, by daybreak, it was almost to the ground. In everyone's room, there are instant noodles, beer, and drinks. It's still no problem to eat for ten days and eight days, so I'm not too nervous. At this time, there were bursts of gunfire in the distance on the ground, and everyone began to discuss.
"There's a war out there?" A co-worker said.
"You didn't watch the news, did you? This is the army exterminating zombies, Resident Evil knows, there are zombies everywhere outside now. Another worker said immediately.
"Then we can't dig or not? Isn't it dangerous to go out? Worker Lin Gang asked.
"Of course you have to dig it, why don't you go out and wait for death here? Didn't the news say that the troops had gone into the city to rescue and set up a safe base to help everyone? A worker said.
Everyone began to speed up, digging outward, and soon the way out was dug through. Above is an empty construction site, and everyone is on the construction site, after finding some thick steel bars to make weapons. They all climbed onto the scaffolding of the building and looked out into the distance. In the distance, a long convoy was heading towards the construction site. Seeing that a convoy was coming, and there were no zombies around the construction site, everyone hurriedly ran out of the construction site and ran in the direction of the convoy. This convoy was a troop convoy evacuated from the city to the rescue base. Seeing the construction materials on the construction site, the soldiers got out of their vehicles to carry the building materials, especially the cement and steel bars, until all the vehicles were full. Wang Haoren and the others followed the convoy and withdrew to the rescue base together.
At the entrance of the rescue base, there was a sea of people, and most of the people were still full of frightened looks on their faces. Apparently he hasn't recovered from the fright. These are people who have fled from the city or from the surrounding villages. They are queuing up to be checked to see if they have been infected by zombies. Wang Haoren They were brought by the army and had already checked before getting into the car, so they were taken directly into the base.
The rescue base is full of makeshift tents, and the walls around the base have already begun, and they are busy building walls. It is estimated that it is preparing to build this place into a strong fortress. The roar of all kinds of heavy machinery made the earth tremble a little. And the people on the construction site are in full swing, although busy but in order.
Wang Haoren and the others were assigned to work in the team that built the wall. Wang Haoren didn't want to waste time here, so he applied to the army to join the team to clean up the zombies, but he was not approved. So, Wang Haoren carried his backpack and held a steel bar sharpened like a spear, preparing to leave the base alone. What he needed now was to get the crystals as soon as possible. If there is no accident, he just needs to kill the zombie and get the crystal in the zombie's brain. You can activate the soul card and gain the ability to quickly absorb energy, so that he can quickly become powerful.
"Xiao Wang, do you really want to go out alone? It's such a mess outside, so stay here. Uncle Liu persuaded.
"Uncle Liu, I have to go to my brother, I can't see him in this situation right now, I really can't rest assured, don't persuade me, I will take care of myself." Wang Haoren said to Uncle Liu.
"Okay, be careful on the road." Liu Kui patted Wang Haoren on the shoulder and did not persuade again.
