Chapter 117: Doomsday Escape [2]
Ming Yu walked from sunset to sunset, and every street in this small city went through it without a response.
A lot of ideas came to her head.
The worst thing is that Qin Shi returned to 2395 alone, leaving her here alone.
"Bastard."
"I traveled through time and space to save you on Earth, and I stayed on Earth for two years for you, and finally froze to death. You're home on your own! ”
"Qin Xi is a dog, the worst one!"
Ming Yi was tired of walking, so he found a bench on the street to sit on, and while resting, he greeted the eighteenth generation of Qin Yan's ancestors.
The last rays of the sun dissipated, and the empty city became even more eerie and quiet. Only then did Ming Yu realize that there was no one here, and there was not even electricity, and the street lamp stood there alone, unable to play its role. Without sunlight, the city was quickly plunged into darkness.
The night was long, and Ming Yu couldn't find anything to illuminate.
She put her feet on the edge of the bench and hugged herself tightly on her knees, unable to cry, only endless fear and blank anxiety about the future.
Her scolding also changed from fierce at the beginning to gradually become:
"Qin Yan, I won't scold you, can you take me away with you?"
"I don't want to be here by myself."
"Even if you send me back to Earth to experience the end of the world again."
The voice became weaker and weaker each time.
The wind stirred and the trees rustled and the sound of leaves colliding became a catalyst for fear. Ming Yu was afraid of the dark, his face was buried in the crook of his arm, and he silently memorized the classical Chinese of earth science in his heart, from the first lesson to the third lesson, and kept thinking about the next sentence in his head, hoping to be distracted and not think about the environment he was in.
It's a pity that the more you don't want to face something, the more you will encounter something.
In this excessively quiet environment, a little sound will be infinitely amplified, and Ming Yu is halfway back, and he can clearly hear the footsteps getting closer and closer.
She immediately looked up from the crook of her arm and followed the source of the sound, and even an animal passing by was gratifying enough.
What's more, this footstep sounds less like an animal and more like a human.
Ming Yu's night vision is not good, there is only an endless night in front of her, and after waiting for a few seconds, she licked her lips and asked tentatively: "Excuse me, is there anyone?" ”
No one answered on the other side, but the footsteps did not stop for a moment.
It wasn't until the visitor got closer and closer that Ming Yu barely made out the silhouette of the other party through the darkness.
It's people!
It's really human!
Still a man.
"Hello, are you a resident here? Can you take me out? Excitement broke through all reason, and Ming Yu didn't even think about the danger at this moment, and got up to meet him.
"Where are you? Why is there no one...... You ......"
Ming Yu swallowed the rest of the words back into his stomach.
With a little bit of moonlight that had not yet fully appeared, Ming Yu could see the man's face up close, his eyes were white, his teeth were bloody, his shoulders were loose and sagging, and his thin shape was like a withered tree.
He stared at Ming Yu, but his eyes were white, as if he was staring at the void. From time to time, his mouth let out a terrifying low roar, and his footsteps were still moving forward slowly.
The sense of crisis emerged, and Ming Yu subconsciously took a step back, two steps-
Then he ran quickly in the opposite direction.
She had no direction, no guidance, just ran forward with all her might, eager to run to the end of the city and get out of this hellish place as soon as possible.
Great fear enveloped her, Ming Yu had never been so desperate and afraid.
I don't know how long she ran, she couldn't run at all, her legs were weak, she knelt on the ground, her chest rose and fell violently, she propped her hands on the ground, coughing and almost vomiting out her internal organs.
I don't know if it's physiological tears or something else, the tears are falling down like broken threads.
At this moment, she thought about Qin Yan like crazy.
.........
Except for the half-human, half-ghost man, Ming Yu didn't meet any other 'people' in the city.
If she stays any longer, she can only wait for death, and she wants to go outside.
She closed her eyes, spun around in place a few times, then stopped, and decided where to go, which way she was facing.
In the end, 'fate' chose the south side for her.
The abandoned cars on the side of the street all need to be recharged, the power system is all paralyzed, and these vehicles are no different from useless furnishings, and Ming Yu can only walk forward.
Along the way, she grabbed something to eat from the convenience store next to the street when she was hungry, and went to the mall to find some clothes when she was cold. There was nothing on her body that could be pledged, so she could only take it privately and say thank you to the empty cash register.
It's good during the day, but it's hard to get through the night.
Ming Yu didn't dare to continue to wander on the road, so he found a shopping mall or store to hide when it was almost dark, most of them hid under the covered U-shaped counter, and placed a circle of empty bottles around it as a reminder.
In three days, I walked from the city to the wilderness and no man's land.
Ming Yu took some food and clothes in advance in case of need, but this place was too big, and there was yellow sand at a glance, and there was not even a boundary in sight. She walked for a long time and forgot where she came and where she was going.
There were only two bottles of water left, and she didn't dare to drink more, so she just took a small sip to moisturize her lips each time.
The temperature here is much higher than in the city, and the sand baked by the scorching sun is scorching for the feet. Spare clothes become a burden during the day. As soon as the evening came, the dust began to blow again, and there was no shelter around it, and the clothes looked thin and useless.
Ming Yu is so tired.
With no end in sight, it's a desperate breakdown.
On the night of the fourth day, when the sandstorm hit, Ming Yu had no strength to resist. With her face covered in clothes, she lay on her back on the ground, waiting for the dust to bury her.
"It's a pity, I'm going to die again."
Ming Yu is desperate and has the last trace of illusion.
If you don't die, you can go back to 2395.
With this in mind, she closed her eyes and waited for death to come.
The wind roared, the wind swept into the clouds, the dust flew all over the sky, and the tornado swept in with a crazy posture that devoured the heavens and the earth.
Ming Yu felt that her ears and nostrils were instantly filled with dust, and she almost suffocated.
Before she lost consciousness, she thought to herself:
Frozen to death on earth, blown to death by the wind here. How can she taste the suffering of this world!
However, there is a greater sorrow in the world called "I can't die if I want to."
Waking up again is in a strange place.
Ming Yu looked at the tattered ceiling above his head, his eyes full of despair and compromise with fate.
What the is this!
Forget it, get tired, destroy it.
She didn't even want to take a look at her surroundings, and was ready to close her eyes and just wait for death without eating or drinking.
Sheng Wulian closed his eyelids, and suddenly a familiar and unfamiliar juvenile voice came from his ears.
"Wake up, pretend to be something."
"Get up."
A few simple words are like throwing a large stone into the calm sea, enough to make a huge ripple. Ming Yu heard this sound as if it was a return to the light, and bounced up from the bed at an alarming speed.
