Chapter 5: Terror Comes
For an hour, Wu Ming waited for an hour, during which he kept calling, and even he went out to the nearest hospital to look for it, but he couldn't find Li Xia.
The time has reached 8:15, and at this moment, I am afraid that it will be too late to rush back. Wu Ming's heart was irritable, in fact, half an hour ago, he was struggling to go back by himself, and now, he finally decided to return to the fortress he had built immediately.
Because there is no time left, if you continue to drag it out, you will even have to put yourself in it, and the horror scene after the card is activated, it is enough to experience it once in this life.
But at this time, Wu Ming's mobile phone rang.
A minute later, he hurriedly rushed downstairs and ran to the People's Square five hundred meters away. On the phone, Li Xia told Wu Ming that she had planned to go home after leaving the hospital, and was now blocked in People's Square.
Wu Ming naturally didn't know the specific situation, the phone was cut off again in the middle of speaking, and he now had two choices, one was to return to his safe house immediately, close the heavy security door, lock the doors and windows, wait for the disaster to come, and don't care about the lives of others. Another option is to go to People's Square and find the trapped Li Xia.
Time waits for no one, Wu Ming Zuihou still chose the latter, the reason may be because Li Xia is his friend, or it may be because of the mysterious mark, or because Wu Ming can't guarantee that he can rush back before eight o'clock, and the person has already come If he goes back like this, won't his previous efforts be wasted?
With Wu Ming's physical fitness now, it is already comparable to the physique of some athletes, and it is only a matter of two minutes to run all the way to People's Square.
It was only when he arrived at the People's Square that Wu Ming knew that Weishenme Li Xia would be blocked here.
At this moment, the People's Square and the surrounding streets are full of people, these people are emotional, and they block the road with some obstacles to prevent any vehicles from passing, and opposite the People's Square is the government agency, some of these people are sitting on the ground, and some are holding slogans written on white cloth in their hands, looking at the slogans put out by those people, Wu Ming knows what is going on.
In the past few days, because of the 'meteorites' that have been falling in Yucheng, many people have died, and Wu Ming alone knows that a fall last night caused more than 80 people to die.
People can't die in vain, and the relatives and friends of the deceased naturally want an explanation, but the official attitude is not easy to make these family members and relatives and friends angry, first, they are not allowed to enter the area where the incident occurred, and they are tight-lipped not to disclose any information, and they are not even allowed to allow the family members to retrieve the body. Naturally, the families who were obsessed with the burial of the earth did not do it, they demanded that the government disclose the truth, they demanded compensation, and it was a large amount of compensation, and they also wanted to bring the bodies of their families back for burial, but unfortunately none of these demands were granted, and people who were tired of the lies of the official spokesman used their own ways to find a solution to the problem.
It was a mass demonstration, and it has been going on since 8 o'clock this morning. At this moment, thousands of people gathered in the huge People's Square, plus there were as many as tens of thousands of people running nearby to see the excitement, which naturally blocked the road, and there were already many riot police around the wall to isolate these troublemakers.
Wu Ming looked at his watch, the time was already eight twenty, at this time he suddenly found that time passed so fast, and he had not found Li Xia yet, even if he found it immediately, it was too late in time.
It's just very strange, Wu Ming is not very scared at this time, since the possibility of rushing back before the disaster is getting smaller and smaller, it is better to make another plan, and this possibility Wu Ming has also thought about before, otherwise he would not have brought armor and Tang Dao.
Communication is still very poor, most of the time the mobile phone can not be dialed out, I don't know if it is because of weishenme, maybe everyone is using the communication network during this time period, or other factors, in short, since the advent of the card, the communication network is sometimes good and bad, and today it is a large area of paralysis.
Wu Ming once suspected that it might have something to do with the Yuan Qi flowing in the air, but of course this was just speculation, and there was no evidence to prove it.
However, for Wu Ming, the trouble caused by this situation is that when the phone cannot be called, it is difficult to find someone in this chaotic situation.
Li Xia sat in the car, looking at the prompt of the communication failure on the mobile phone screen, and helplessly threw it aside.
"Xiazi, don't worry, this kind of road blocking trouble hasn't happened in any year, and it's okay for them to make trouble, but it's strange to say, you said that this time I look at this thing is full of evil, falling stones from the sky, this is a strange thing that I have never seen in my life, and so many people died, the government didn't say anything, not even the corpse was seen by relatives, in other words, I also had to make trouble. I called my uncle in the countryside a few days ago, and his old man said that there was something big going to happen, saying that the Lord of Yama was going to accept people, and told me to hurry back to the countryside for refuge. ”
In the driver's seat, a middle-aged man about forty years old said that he was Li Xia's neighbor, surnamed Guo, who lived by running a taxi.
As for the sick lady, she has been hospitalized.
8:50 p.m.
The taxi still didn't move, and Brother Guo turned on the radio, but strangely he couldn't receive any radio station, only a chaotic noise.
"It's weird!" Brother Guo muttered: "This radio is also making trouble for me here today!" ”
At this moment, there was a strange noise on the radio, so noisy that it was as if a hundred cats were scratching the glass with their paws.
The next moment, the noise suddenly stopped, and at the same time, the street lights, shops, and even car lights were turned off in an instant, as if someone had suddenly turned off the power.
"What's going on?" Brother Guo was stunned for a moment, glanced back at Li Xia, who was also stunned, and then raised his head and went out, it didn't matter what he saw, everywhere he looked was dark.
"There's a power outage?"
If someone looked at the ground from the sky at this moment, they would find that the entire Yucheng City was plunged into darkness, and the crowd gathered in the People's Square was also stunned, obviously not expecting a sudden power outage.
"This must be a trick played by those officials, thinking that pinching the electricity will make us leave? Dreaming, if you don't tell us one, two, three today, we won't leave, my poor brother, only twenty-five years old, just graduated and died before he got married, but you don't even let us see the corpse, what kind of heart is Ande? ”
"Yes, don't talk about cutting off the electricity for us today, even if you shoot at us, we won't leave, there are reporters at the scene, I don't believe you can cover the sky with one hand!"
The brief silence caused by a sudden power outage was soon replaced by even louder voices of discontent.
Wu Ming looked at the street lights that suddenly went out, but his expression was ugly, he knew that this was not an ordinary power outage, this was the most violent collision between the other space and the space they were in, this collision seemed to be silent, but in fact there would be many 'wormholes' opened, and from now on, the vitality in the air would start from nothing, and even the opening of the wormhole would produce a unique electromagnetic storm, and the sudden power outage was due to this reason.
Wu Ming is not a scientist, so naturally he can't explain the principle of the sudden power failure, but he knows that soon, maybe a few minutes or even a dozen seconds later, those cards that fell before will be activated. Because the energy collector on his wrist had already begun to tick, which proved that there was already vitality in the air.
Swallowing and spitting, Wu Ming looked at his watch again, the current time is eight fifty-three in the evening, nine o'clock is just an approximate time, maybe at the moment when the power was cut off, those cards have been activated.
Just as Wu Ming guessed, at a fall point about three kilometers away from the People's Square, the vitality shield that was originally used as protection around the card suddenly disappeared at this moment, and several researchers around were stunned when they saw that card suddenly burst open.
The same thing happens with all the card drop points.
Several SWAT officers in charge of martial law and security around the area heard a loud noise coming from inside, followed by several miserable screams, and then the sound stopped abruptly, but fell silent for a moment.
"What's going on? Xiao Wang, Xiao Huang, go and have a look. Zhang Heng, the guard squad leader, looked vigilant at the moment, the sudden power outage just now made this alert special police feel that something was wrong, obviously this is not an ordinary power outage, can an ordinary power outage stop the radio they are carrying?
Because they are on a special mission, the special police officers on duty here are all real guns, Xiao Wang and Xiao Huang opened the safety of the police submachine gun in their hands, and then slowly walked over one after the other.
But before they could walk in, they vaguely saw two researchers in white coats walk out.
"Dr. Xu, it turned out to be you, what happened just now?" Seeing two familiar figures walking out, Xiao Wang breathed a sigh of relief, but he put down the muzzle of the gun he raised and was about to walk over.
At this moment, the power was suddenly restored, and the light showed the appearance of the two researchers at this moment. Immediately, Xiao Wang and Xiao Huang, as well as the guard squad leader Zhang Heng behind them, all changed their faces suddenly.
The two researchers were bloodless at the moment, their eyes were gray, and their mouths were so wide that they were so wide that they were so wide that their faces were torn apart, revealing bloody wounds, and the flesh hung between their jaws like rags, and the blood fell to the ground drop by drop, and a pair of thick and sharp black 'big teeth' grew out of their mouths, like a pair of sharp pincers.
Xiao Wang was still stunned, and the person he called Dr. Xu let out a terrifying scream, and then pounced on him at a speed comparable to that of a cheetah. Xiao Wang was like being hit head-on by a speeding car, and was directly thrown a few meters away, and before he could react, his throat was torn by that pair of sharp big teeth, and blood splashed for a while.
Bang bang!
A barrage of gunfire rang out, even from a distance of several kilometers. Wu Ming looked up at the direction where the voice came from, and sighed secretly, his heart was finally coming.
At this time, he finally saw Li Xia, who was waving to him in a taxi crowded in the crowd.
Squad leader Zhang Heng was half-sitting on the ground at the moment, the bullets in the submachine gun in his hand had been exhausted, the ground was full of bullet casings and bloodstains, and there was a huge wound on his chest that was deep and visible to the bones, and the blood couldn't stop flowing out.
The wound had been cut open by the big teeth in Dr. Xu's mouth, and the thing was sharper than a knife.
Zhang Heng's mouth spurted blood foam, he couldn't believe that this was reality, he watched his subordinates be killed by those two monsters one by one, and then out of nowhere crawled out of a dozen strange insects the size of adult arms, these strange insects have six pairs of insect limbs, the body is divided into three sections, and the surface is covered with a layer of black carapace, like a mutated prawn, crawling into the mouths of Xiao Wang, Xiao Huang and other warriors at a very fast speed, and then the already dead person suddenly convulsed, and then stood up again.
Their mouths were torn apart, and they grew big teeth like Dr. Xu's, sharp, and disgusting slime, and then they screamed and lunged at him with a pair of dead gray eyes.
", am I dreaming?" This was Zhang Heng's thought before he fell into darkness.
The same thing happens at the drop point of other cards.
