Chapter 9: Entering a Deserted City
The scorching sun is shining, the air is scorching with the hot heat of the heart, and the skin of all Buddhas is scorching in the furnace. Xu Feng slowly woke up from his vague consciousness, he opened his eyes vaguely, and some fragments flashed in his mind.
A group of heavily armed men were desperately chasing him, he was bitten all over his body by a beast of prey, the beast was bloodthirsty, he ran desperately, but the beast just chased after him. Just as it was about to swallow itself alive, suddenly a bullet pierced Xu Feng's shoulder and hit the beast's head, the beast fell to the ground with a bang, and then another bullet hit Xu Feng's heart, and Xu Feng fell to the ground suddenly.
At the last moment before he fell unconscious, he saw the woman in red standing in front of Xu Feng, holding a gun against his temple, death was so near, but Xu Feng was relieved at that moment, he was waiting for the moment when the woman pressed the trigger, in other words, he was looking forward to it. Bang,
There was a buzz in Xu Feng's head, and he slowly lost all consciousness.
"Xu Feng, wake up! Can you see me? ”
"Hey, Xu Feng!"
Xu Feng's head suddenly and violently analized, he felt that someone was shaking him, and someone was desperately calling his name, he slowly opened his eyes, and vaguely recognized that the person in front of him was Lin Hao, and the person next to him was Jiang Fei, he regained consciousness, and tried to get up with Lin Hao's support, looking at the people around him were all tourists from the tour group, everyone looked at him anxiously and suspiciously.
"You kid scared me to death, I thought you were dead?" Lin Hao swung his fist at Xu Feng, and Xu Feng's stress response was analgesia throughout the body. But when he leaned over and looked at his body, he couldn't find any wounds, he couldn't believe it, and he looked at his body again and again, over and over again, but there were really no wounds on his body.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Hao saw Xu Feng's strange behavior, and noticed that his face was wrong, and he was a little worried, "Is there something hurt?" ”
Xu Feng checked it over and over again, although he couldn't believe it, but this was the truth, he was not injured, nor did he have internal injuries, so he had no choice but to shake his head.
"I don't think I'm hurt."
"Then why are you here?" Lin Hao hurriedly asked.
"I... I do not know. ”
Xu Feng's answer made Lin Hao even more puzzling, Xu Feng was the only one who didn't appear in the third-floor dance hall, it stands to reason that he shouldn't appear here, and now he doesn't remember why he appeared here, it's really incredible.
"Hey.. Forget it, it's good for you to come back, and we'll talk about the rest later. ”
Xu Feng stood up from the ground with the strength of Lin Hao's help, and looked at it, Xu Feng saw clearly that he was in a desert, under the scorching sun, everywhere he could see was red sand, almost all of which were overgrown wasteland.
"Where is this?" Xu Feng asked Lin Hao beside him, and Lin Hao sighed helplessly.
"Bee Python Island, we were here before we found you."
"And what do you guys do.." Xu Feng had a hunch that Lin Hao and the others must have happened worse than himself, so he stopped talking.
"Let's find the way to the shore mouth first, and then talk about the specific road." Jiang Fei stood next to Lin Hao, looking at the scorching sun, and had no choice but to interrupt the conversation between the two and proposed. Xu Feng glanced at Jiang Fei, nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and followed everyone on the road.
In a team of more than 30 people, Lin Hao took the lead, and after Xu Feng broke off, Jiang Fei led the team with a map and a compass, all the way through the wasteland and desert, and moved forward with difficulty. Towards dusk, everyone arrived at the end of the desert, and suddenly the sky was full of dark clouds, and the light rain turned into a torrential rain in a blink of an eye.
"It looks like a cave over there, you can go in and take shelter from the rain!" The girl next to the rich woman with the gold bracelet was originally out of breath and lifeless, but when she saw the cave, her eyes lit up, and she ran away excitedly.
"Ella! Don't go there yet! The rich woman with the gold bracelet hurriedly followed her daughter and ran over, trying to stop her. When everyone heard the sound, they all looked up and saw that there was indeed a huge and bottomless cave not far away.
"It can't be a mirage, how can there be mountains in the desert."
"I don't look like it." Tourists, some of them are dumbfounded, some of them rub their eyes vigorously, but when you look horizontally and vertically, the cave is really there.
"It's really weird." Lin Hao looked at the cave and felt incredible, he looked at Xu Feng next to him, and he also looked preoccupied.
"Let's go over first, it seems safe for now." Jiang Fei carefully looked at the map, and the coastal mouth she estimated was behind the cave, "As long as you pass through the cave, you should be able to see the sea." ”
When they heard this, they put aside their worries for the time being, and walked hopefully to the mouth of the cave. Xu Feng and Lin Hao led the tourists carefully into the dark hole, and by the light of the mobile phone searchlights, they could see the signal lights on the cement walls on both sides, and weeds and vines growing wildly between the rusty railroad tracks. There is no doubt that this is a deserted train tunnel. Everyone stepped on the railroad sleepers and stumbled along the way.
Escaping the desert heat, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to look curiously at the tunnels they had passed. Xu Feng held up the searchlight of his mobile phone, and he saw a faint light at the end of the darkness in the distance, like the glimmer of fireflies. Jiang Fei walked behind Xu Feng, looking at his back from time to time, speculating about what might have happened to him before, and when he saw Xu Feng, all the worries and anxieties faded. Looking at Xu Feng's preoccupied expression, Jiang Fei, who had always been thoughtful, realized that Xu Feng must have experienced something incredible, she was not used to taking the initiative to ask, but the important thing was that she was unwilling to force Xu Feng to recall the painful experience.
The light at the exit of the cave in the distance grew bigger and clearer, and it was the exit of the tunnel. Xu Feng turned his head and looked at Jiang Fei, but their eyes were immediately overwhelmed by the dazzling light at the exit of the tunnel.
The afterglow fell, everyone walked out of the tunnel mouth smoothly, the rain was still falling, and a beautiful Southeast Asian town appeared in everyone's sight. The streets here remain pre-millennium, with a Nokia blue-screen phone featuring a giant billboard on the side of the road, and a newspaper for Jackson's new album plastered on a tall building opposite.
Strangely, there were several old cars parked on the road, and there were no individuals. Except for the sound of rain, the whole city seems to be pressed on mute. Viewed from above, the brightly colored bus moves slowly through the neighborhood like a strange intruder and the only moving object in the city. Tourists widened their eyes curiously to take in the incredible landscape in front of them, and many of them did not forget to take out their mobile phones and take pictures of the city's scenery.
"Jiang Fei, you are well-informed, tell me quickly, where is this?" Jiang Fei's colleague Liu Yi looked at the beautiful scenery and couldn't help but admire, and hurriedly asked Jiang Fei, Jiang Fei looked at the scenery and shook his head against the map in his hand.
This place is not marked on the map, and I don't know. ”
"It seems that we stumbled into a lost attraction, and if we were to find a reporter to report it, it would definitely make headlines."
Liu Yi became more excited as if he had discovered a prehistoric monument, and hurriedly pressed the photo button on the attractions he thought were good-looking, but his colleague Deng Rongfa behind him looked at Liu Yi's excited look with disdain.
"You're going to have a hard time, when is it, and you're still in the mood to take pictures." Deng Rongfa shook his mobile phone and turned back to ask his colleagues behind him.
"Hey, who's got a cell phone signal?"
"You're in the mood to find a signal, but you don't want to take a few photos and post them on Moments." Liu Yi looked for an opportunity to fight back, turned his head and looked at Deng Rongfa with disdain, but Deng Rongfa had no intention of arguing with him again, holding his mobile phone in a vain hope that he could find a corner with a signal.
"What the hell, I can't even make a phone call."
Lin Hao seemed to be reminded, and he also took out his mobile phone to look at it, and sure enough, there was no signal at all. He turned around and was about to say something to Xu Feng, but found that the old man at the end of the team who had been studying the map did not look right, and hurriedly pouted at Xu Feng, signaling him to see how ridiculous the old man was. Xu Feng turned around and saw the old man holding the map in his hand, staring blankly at the surrounding scenery, his eyes seemed to be full of tears.
"What's going on?" Lin Hao asked in a low voice.
"Maybe it's touching the scene." Xu Feng looked at the old man, turned his head, and looked at the scenery outside carefully. "What do you think this place looks like?"
"It's like a city in a dream, with everything but no one." Lin Hao followed Xu Feng's gaze and looked into the distance, he saw an abandoned convenience store behind the mist in the rain, Lin Hao patted Xu Feng on the shoulder, and walked towards the convenience store, Xu Feng also followed, and everyone also followed the figure of the two to find the convenience store, and followed one after another.
