03. Nightmare
Trapped in a nightmare that cannot be controlled and controlled, as if living in two worlds at the same time, where should the center of gravity fall?
The sky was dark in an instant, there was smoke and fire all around, there were sharp sirens and panicked cries everywhere, Zhou Chu stood in the middle of the street, looking around blankly.
Then he was thrust and a loud sound rushed into his eardrums.
"Don't go yet! If you keep grinding, you'll be bitten to death by those monsters! ”
Pushed Zhou Chu, and yelled at him, it was a tall and burly man, Zhou Chu was pushed and yelled, and subconsciously ran forward with the not too many people, but Zhou Chu still subconsciously turned his head to look.
At the end of the fleeing crowd, not too far away, a group of "people" with blank eyes, as if they had been resurrected, most of their exposed skin had festered, revealing a bright red and blurred flesh of flesh, shaking their arms, walking quickly or slowly in a stiff and strange twisted posture, chasing after them.
Zombie! Zhou Chu seemed to have something flashing in his mind, but he didn't grasp it, and he didn't have time to think about it, just blank, and fled forward with the running crowd.
After rushing past a burning building that seemed to collapse at any moment, Zhou Chu and the fleeing crowd saw flashing red and blue lights and barricades in front of them, as well as heavily armed policemen behind bunkers and police cars, and loudspeakers urging them.
"Hurry up! Run fast! ”
Zhou Chu, who rarely exercised after work, only felt that his legs were as heavy as lead, and his already blank mind was now nothing, but he didn't dare to stop and slow down, just ran as hard as he could, running towards the safety behind the barricade.
With the sound of running wind and constant urging in his ears, getting closer and closer to "hurry up", Zhou Chu only knew that Lu Dao instinctively ran forward, until in the corner of his eye, after seeing a few rows of roadblocks and flashing red and blue lights flashing on both sides, such a message came to his mind.
It's safe.
After such information was transmitted to the nerve center, Zhou Chu felt that the strength of his body was instantly drained, and he could no longer move his legs, he stood in place, not hearing what the people around him were saying, just bent over, supported his hands on the knees of his legs, and gasped for breath.
After a full few minutes, Zhou Chu came back to his senses, and his buzzing brain gradually regained his ability to think.
He stood up, looked at the people around him who did not hide the panic, fear, helplessness and other expressions on their faces, looked at everything that was desperately commanding and pacifying, but still in chaos, and then looked back at the barricades and the police cars that had been used as cover and obstacles, as well as the guns in the back of the police cars, nervously pointed the guns at the policemen in front, and gradually regained his sanity and thinking ability, so that he understood what was going on.
That damn nightmare again!
At the same time, it was also a nightmare that made Zhou Chu resign, and feared the darkness and sleep, and followed him for several days.
On the first day of the nightmare, Zhou Chu didn't think so, it was just a nightmare, plus he was a die-hard fan of the game Resident Evil, and he had dreamed that he was killing or surviving in the world of Resident Evil, so he didn't go to his heart, and he also regretted that this dream was too real, so real that the dream was almost the same as the real time, and only a day had passed, and he woke up before the prelude to the incident began.
But on the next second day, the third day, Zhou Chu still entered this dream, Zhou Chu began to feel that something was wrong, but he just felt that he should have a good rest, maybe because of too much pressure. …,
But on the fourth day, Zhou Chu didn't think so, in the dream, he was scratched by a piece of glass and couldn't use it flexibly, and after waking up, he found that the same part had the same problem, but the difference with the dream was that his wrist was bloody in the dream, but there was no scar in reality.
On the fifth day, he strained his leg and woke up limping as if in a dream.
Zhou Chu remembered something at this time, he once met a woman and said something. It was precisely because of this incident that Zhou Chu finally began to fear this nightmare that he would do every day.
And on the eighth day, he finally couldn't control this fear and anxiety, and chose to resign, being so haunted by such a nightmare, no one would be able to maintain a normal state of mind and continue to live.
And this time in the nightmare, it was the ninth day.
Zhou Chu looked up at the sky, it was night, in this dream for nine consecutive days, it had always been night, this was unreasonable, but there was nothing unreasonable, because this was a dream, Zhou Chu even clearly knew that he was in a dream, and he also clearly remembered the things in wakefulness and reality. But it is precisely this kind of sobriety that Zhilu Dao is in a nightmare but can't wake up, and the strange echo between the dream and reality, is the source of fear.
Even at the most exhausting moment, when you fall down, you should enter the limit of deep sleep, is there still no way to escape this continuous and real dream that is like another world?
Zhou Chu sighed, looking at the policemen who were on alert with loaded guns and ammunition, the whistling police cars that were constantly coming from the rear, the helicopters that were constantly circling in the night sky in the distance, and the crowd of people who were relieved to stay or continue to flee to the rear.
The biohazard event in which the biochemical weapon virus leaked, the infected corpses, that is, the zombies were rampant, and the city fell into chaos, he was so familiar with such a scene, and even at this moment in front of him, he could know what was going to happen next.
The monsters infected by the virus, that is, the zombies, will continue to rush forward, and the police in front will warn according to the usual practice, and then exchange fire after ineffect, but the monsters who have already lost all consciousness, including the pain nerves, bullets have no way to stop them, and the rudimentary barricades and defense lines will soon be broken through, and this team of police will be wiped out.
Almost identical, the opening animation scene of Resident Evil III is reproduced, only more realistic.
Wait a minute! Zhou Chu suddenly thought of something, he was not a bystander, he was now standing in the opening animation of Resident Evil III, the scene of the annihilation of the whole army, that is to say, when the defense line was broken, he would also have an inevitable tragedy.
If he died, he should have woken up, Zhou Chu thought, but the other one might have captured his heart in an instant - what if in this weird nightmare, dying is not waking up, but never waking up?
This speculation suddenly made him creepy, and he subconsciously wanted to continue running towards the rear, but he only took a step, but stopped again, because he realized another problem.
If you run away, where can you go?
Zhou Chu looked at the policemen with loaded guns and the armed policemen with submachine guns, and made a bold decision.
He walked over to what looked like a captain and commander.
"Do you have a gun?" Zhou Chu asked.
The other party waved his hand impatiently as Zhou Chu expected: "Don't fucking make a mess!" Quickly find a safe place to hide, and then wait for the situation to settle down, damn, how the hell did this monster appear. ”
Sure enough, Zhou Chu thought, this is not all a real Resident Evil dream, at least this is not Raccoon City, but another city, most of the citizens here are mainly Chinese, even the tone and tone of the police are also Chinese, but it is more difficult to deal with. …,
But this didn't bother Zhou Chu, and he didn't give up, but continued to say to the captain.
"You don't have enough manpower, I can help you, I was a soldier and can use guns."
The middle-aged man was about to say something, when a young man who looked like a special police officer next to him suddenly spoke.
"Give it to him, captain, at this time, one more person will give him more strength."
The captain looked at Zhou Chu with suspicious eyes, and then waved his hand impatiently, "Just give him a hand, remember it for me, don't make a mess." ”
After leaving the sentence aside, the captain walked over and picked up the walkie-talkie.
Zhou Chu was secretly glad that he had been a sports student for a period of time, so even if he worked, his exercise was intermittent, but although he didn't look strong, he still had a figure that didn't look at least thin, and Zhou Chu did have enough good motor nerves and explosiveness.
"And then."
The young SWAT officer who helped him speak threw a gun over, Zhou Chu's eyes were quick, and he caught it, but he still felt the heaviness of his hand, and at the same time, the cold metallic texture was also transmitted from the skin he touched for the first time.
It was this touch that was more real than reality that made Zhou Chu feel frightened, but there was no way to find a way out of this nightmare at the moment, so he had to take one step at a time.
After catching the two magazines thrown by the other party, Zhou Chu looked at the heavy gun in his hand, MP5, Zhou Chu relied on a high-fidelity firearm shooting game he had played, as well as the experience seen in the firearms book, he looked at the alignment decently, loaded the magazine, and then pulled the safety bolt, after listening to a crisp click, Zhou Chu breathed a sigh of relief, nothing went wrong.
"Not bad." The young SWAT smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "From this moment on, we are comrades-in-arms, and I am Gao Ming." ”
"Zhou Chu." Although he slandered in his heart, he was just a character in a dream, but everything in this dream didn't seem to be under his control, so Zhou Chu still stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party.
"You weren't a soldier." Gao Ming suddenly exposed Zhou Chu's lies, but came over mysteriously, "But it doesn't matter, in this situation, your choice can't be said to be correct, but at least there is no mistake." ”
He looked at the crowd that was constantly fleeing towards the rear, smiled sarcastically, and then said: "Wait a minute, remember, shoot in the head, if you hit the eyebrows, that shot will be done, it doesn't matter if you don't hit, hit a few more times, in short, just hit the head." ”
Zhou Chu nodded, I don't want to say this, I also know the way, at least Resident Evil is not played in vain.
"And~" Gao Ming walked away a few steps before turning back, "If you really can't do it, run for your life, at this time, no one wants you to fight to the death, and no one will laugh at you for being a coward." ”
I also know this, Zhou Chu is a little helpless, this character seems to be a little talkative, but it also gives Zhou Chu a more real feeling than others, and Zhou Chu vaguely feels that something is wrong, but he doesn't know what is wrong.
"They're getting closer!" With a shout from the front, the scene suddenly became a mess, those who fled continued to escape, and those who were facing forward continued to face forward, and at this time it seemed that the megaphone did not play a role. Zhou Chu looked around, and when he came to a sideways police car, he bowed slightly, put the submachine gun on the roof of the car, and stared nervously ahead.
At this moment, his palms clenching the handle of the gun were covered with sweat, and in the distance, a group of zombies walking stiffly in a strange and distorted posture had appeared sporadically around the corner of the street
