The black shadow at the door was motionless, the five of us stood by the fire, the atmosphere was strange and silent, and the fat man couldn't help it, took out a firewood stick from the fire on the ground, and smashed it towards the wooden door.

Bang!

Sparks flew on the firewood, and the black shadow on the ground seemed to be frightened and flinched.

Now, I feel that the thing outside the door is not a person, just ask, if it is a person, why don't you knock on the door? Even if you don't knock, it's time to kick in the door. The shadow only shrank for a moment, and the shadow suddenly became blurry.

I don't think it's a way to hold on like this, but my eyes turned around on the three of Boss Li, they were obviously unwilling to open the door, and they all looked nervous, as if the monster outside the door would rush in at any time.

The fat man held the dagger for a long time, and finally snorted in his mouth, glanced at the three of them with disdain, glanced at me, and lowered his voice: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, the fat man has killed a lot of soft and hard dumplings, but I want to see what is doing it." After speaking, he waved at Ma Zi beside him, and motioned Ma Zi to give him the gun, Ma Zi quickly shook his head, and said nervously: "You can't open it, that thing is very evil." ”

The so-called gun shot the first bird, although I was very curious about what was outside the door, but the risk of this kind of thing, or leave it to others to do, just wanted to persuade the fat man to observe for a while, before the words came out, the black shadow outside the door, swished away, the sun shone in through the crack again, and the dust floating in the air was clearly recognizable.

Boss Li was stunned and said, "That thing is gone?" ”

I squinted and watched for a while, and there seemed to be no movement outside the door, so I said, "Let's go out and have a look." Wang Kun still disagreed with opening the door, and said: "That thing is so ruthless, it deliberately led us to the main hall before, will it be ...... again this time?"

The fat man snorted and said, "Comrade Xiao Wang, you are afraid of wolves and tigers, do you want to do business?" I want the boss to know what you are doing, and I don't dare to go out of the door when I hide here, and I won't skin you and cramp when I come out. A trace of struggle flashed on Wang Kun's face, and finally took a deep breath, and then lowered his voice and said, "I'll take a look, you guys be careful." So saying, he went to the door with his gun in hand.

Immediately afterwards, a hand pulled out the door bolt, and like me and the fat man, he opened the door violently, but the whole person flashed to the side in an instant, and the strong sunlight shone into the room, and outside the door was a lane covered with yellow sand, and there was no one.

The four of us looked at each other and immediately ran to the door, and on the sand, there was not a single footprint, and the black shadow standing outside the door just now was not really a person? I couldn't help but shudder, could the ghosts here become spirits, and they could come out to hang out in broad daylight?

The fat man ran directly to the door, stood in the alley and looked left and right, snorted in his mouth, and said, "If you want the fat man, I see, even if this thing is a ghost, it is a coward." ”

Boss Li's expression was grim, and he opened his mouth for a while: "You can't stay here for long, I think it's still ......" Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden banging sound behind us, as if the doors and windows were kicked open.

What was that?

We turned back almost at the same time, but at this time, the bonfire in the house had been extinguished at some point, and Junko, who was lying on the kang, was gone, as if she had disappeared out of thin air.

Ma Zi was standing next to me, and I heard him gasp and spit out one word: "Ghost ......"

I believe that there are ghosts in this world, not to mention hard dumplings, I have saved a lot of soft dumplings myself, but it is really rare to see soft dumplings like this that can come out in broad daylight, I feel that there is a problem here, so I said to Ma Zi: "Don't panic, look there." I pointed to a window next to the kang.

I observed it almost at a glance, the structure of the house here is to open a window next to the kang, there is a platform on the window that sticks out, and you can put things like flower pots on the platform, above the window, there is a movable wooden plank, supported by a stick, when the window is closed, the wooden board is lowered, this kind of window design is relatively simple, but the window is closed and not permeable.

I remember that when I entered this room, the doors and windows were closed, but at this moment, the wooden window was reduced to broken wood, and the sunlight shone in through the window and sprinkled on the loess kang.

Boss Li reacted the fastest, immediately held the gun, and jumped on the kang with a smart movement, and then, he poked his head out of the window, and then gestured at us, and said coldly: "Bring something, let's chase." ”

Ma Zi and Shunzi immediately took on the burden, and during this period, they also threw two long soldiers to me and the fat man, which was regarded as their own people, and then Boss Li jumped out of the window directly.

What's outside the window? Could it be that Junko ran away on her own?

The fat man and I also hurriedly followed, jumping out of the window one by one, and then I realized that there was also an alley outside the window, but it was narrower than the alley outside the door, this kind of alley, which was the separation zone between the two houses, only one person wide, and it was also covered with a thin layer of yellow sand, and at this moment, there were traces on those yellow sands, as if something had climbed over from above.

Is it a straight?

But why did Junko run away? And he's an injury, I don't think he's capable of breaking a wooden window in an instant, that must be a big guy.

Boss Li has already chased after the traces of the sand, Ma Zi and Wang Kun are also professionally trained, and their movements are very fast, my physical strength has improved a lot over the years, and my skills have also improved, but I have not fallen behind, but I am a fat man, and I am not so fast in the narrow alley, and I am called out to me: "Alas, naïve Comrade Wu Xie, you slow down, you betrayed the organization so quickly." ”

The horses are very fast, and the lanes are crisscrossed, a little slow is easy to fall, I didn't pay attention to the fat man, said a word to keep up, just kept chasing the back in front of me, running and running I felt wrong, I found that the things on the ground, not like the traces left when crawling, but like the traces left when dragging things.

Most people know that if something crawls on the sand, it will leave wavy traces, but the traces in front of me are straight, and there is just one person thick, I was suddenly shocked in my heart, is it a straight child?

He didn't run away on his own, but was dragged away by something?

Almost instantly, I thought of snakes, which fit in well in terms of size and speed.

But if it's an earth black python or a human head snake, their habit is to eat their prey directly, why do they drag the straight away? Could it be that it knows we have guns in our hands, so it runs first? If this is the case, then aren't these serpents spiritual?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and at that moment, I stopped suddenly, and there was no sound behind me.

When I turned around, the noisy fat man disappeared at some point. This dead fat man has already made him lose weight, and he fell off the chain at this critical moment. As soon as I paused, Wang Kun in front of me disappeared in a turn. I looked at the marks on the ground, and thought that the fat man could keep up with the traces, so I held the dagger and chased after it, I wanted to see what was dragging the straight.

The experience of the past few years has taught me that the scourge cannot be left behind, otherwise at the critical moment, it will definitely come out to make trouble.

I ran up and turned a corner, but I found that since Wang Kun was actually blocked in the alley in front of me, at this moment, they were not running, but walking slowly.

Did you chase it?

What is it?

I hurriedly followed, patted Wang Kun in front of me, and quickly asked, "What's the situation?" Wang Kun turned his head, his face was pale and pale, his lips were trembling, I sensed that something was wrong, and I just wanted to ask, but at this time, I saw a red thing out of the corner of my eye.

That thing was on the ground, blocked by the horse in front of Wang Kun, because there were two people in the middle, I couldn't see it clearly for a while, and at this moment, the horse suddenly broke out with a sad cry and shouted: "Shunzi!" ”

Straight?

Could it be that he ......

I want to see more clearly, but the distance is a little farther, and there are two people in front of me, plus my eyes are not good now, and I can't see clearly, through the gap between the horse's legs and feet, I can only vaguely see a red thing on the ground, what is it?

I looked at the vague red, I always felt that something was wrong, there was a strange smell in the air, I subconsciously took a deep breath, and immediately reacted, it was the smell of blood, and it was the smell of human blood that I was familiar with.

What is that thing in front of you?

At this time, Boss Li at the front suddenly raised one hand high and stood straight in the air, and then, Ma Zi and Wang Kun in front of me all made the same action, I don't know what this action means, but after they finished this action, Boss Li at the front shot fiercely into the sky, and a hoarse shout broke out from his mouth: "Fuck it!" After the gunshot, the three of them actually ran violently, I subconsciously followed, as they ran, the red thing gradually exposed to my sight, just one look, I was chilled.

It was a whole skeleton with flesh and blood still attached!

The flesh of the corpse had been eaten, only the minced flesh that adhered to the bones exuded scarlet marks, and the strong smell of blood came to my nose, and next to the corpse, I saw a lot of rags, the same rags as Boss Li's clothes.

So isn't the corpse in front of you......

At this moment, I felt chills all over my body, could it be that in this city, in addition to soft dumplings, there are also man-eating monsters? I suddenly remembered the kind of human creatures in the Gada Oasis, and I thought of Lu Zhou, who was eaten alive.

At this time, I suddenly reacted, why hasn't the fat man caught up yet?

We paused here for a moment, the fat man, no matter how slow he was, should catch up, could he have encountered some danger?

Damn it! I couldn't help but want to scold my mother, and I didn't care about chasing Wang Kun and them anymore, so I turned around and ran back, shouting as I ran: "Fatty!" "I shouted a lot, and the sound was very loud, in the deep loess alley, it seemed unusually empty, but no one answered me, except for my shouting, there was no sound, and I finally knew that something was wrong with the city.

It has always given me a strange feeling, and only now did I realize that there was no sound in this city, no sound, not even the sound of the wind.

I shouted a few times and couldn't help but stop talking, because I felt that the voice I shouted was as if it had been processed by a tape recorder, and the echo was so empty that it seemed like a ghost was replying, and I must have been frightened, and I would have felt that my voice was terrible.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but pinch my thighs hard, and kept hinting to myself in my heart: It's daytime, this is not Douli, Wu Xie, you are really angry, don't embarrass the old Wu family.

Immediately after that, I continued to call the fat man's name, perhaps because my heart hinted that it was useful, this time, I felt that my voice did not have that strange feeling, and soon, I knew that the fat man was missing.

Because the distance I ran back was completely beyond the path I took when I broke up with the fat man, and at this moment, the sand layer on the ground was full of messy footprints left by our previous running, and it was impossible to tell which person it belonged to, and where the fat man was lost?

Damn old fat man, did he get lost with his head stuffed with mush, or did he encounter some danger?

I was in turmoil, my head was bulging, I knew that I couldn't go on like this, so I took a deep breath, hinting that I needed to be sober, fortunately, there were many crises I had encountered over the years, and I soon calmed down, and then, I began to turn around and start walking towards Boss Li and their place again.

This time it's walking, not running.
