Chapter 208: Fantasy Space
The car did return to its original place, the dilapidated Industrial and Commercial Bank, and even the bandits who had been dead for a long time appeared in front of their eyes, and they seemed to be back in place.
"Could this be the legendary ghost hitting the wall? Are we really back to where we are?" Qi Dongqiang stared at his big eyes like copper bells, and carefully stared at the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, which had just been selected as a foothold.
"You can't be driving in the wrong direction, are you? Qi Dongqiang still didn't give up and said that he had been thinking about things just now, so much so that he didn't look at the road.
Buzzing!
The car started again, heading for the "Welcome to Cangxian" sign, but a quarter of an hour later, they reappeared in the same place.
The car was driving in the direction of the billboard, but when they got closer and closer to the billboard, they realized that they were back where they were.
This is very similar to the ghost hitting the wall seen in the movie. It's just this kind of thing that only appears in ghost movies, but it appears in reality.
Liu Xinyuan drove the pickup truck and continued to circle the city a few times, only to find that they were getting closer and closer to the county center, and getting farther and farther away from the outside of the county seat.
Liu Xinyuan was anxious, he changed several directions successively, but except for driving the car closer to the county center, their position not only did not change, but even closer to the inside.
The strange ghost hitting the wall added a strange atmosphere to this abandoned county town, and after knowing that it was hopeless to get out, everyone had time to look at this strange dead city.
Cangxian County is very dilapidated, there has been no human population for more than three years, and the asphalt road is covered by dust, and the yellowed zebra crossing can be vaguely distinguished.
The city was full of plants that had never been seen before, they were supposed to come from another world, some of the shrubs were red all over, bright red as blood, and the fruits they produced were a little black, those fruits were hexagonal, about the size of watermelons, and crushed the weak, low shrub branches almost to the ground.
Even the weeds are red in this abandoned city, and if you look at it from a high place, you will find that the city is like a bloody city, full of the kind of gore that can easily make people crazy.
Only the unknown is the most terrifying, and the feeling of being locked in this confined space, not knowing what will happen next, is very uncomfortable.
"Can't we get out anymore? What the hell is going on with this qiē?" Li Fei'er looked at this very unfamiliar environment, and her face became even paler.
In this team, Jiang Cheng has become a veritable leader, and after encountering unsolvable difficulties, everyone's eyes seem to be asking Jiang Cheng's opinion.
At this moment, they are parked in a prosperous area of the county, and next to the pickup truck is a century-old gold store.
"The iron door of this gold shop is strong enough to withstand the knife and leg attacks of the horned beetle, and we will stay here tonight. Li Fei'er and Qi Dongqiang both thought that Jiang Cheng, as a strong martial artist, would definitely come up with some good solution, but this Jiang Cheng actually bluntly said that he wanted to spend the night here.
"Spend the night here?" Qi Dongqiang muttered in a low voice, but he didn't dare to express his opinion head-on, he was still afraid that Jiang Cheng would find trouble with him, so he was extra careful when he spoke.
"That's right, just spend the night here, what's the problem?" Qi Dongqiang's voice had been suppressed to a very low level, but Jiang Cheng still heard it.
"No problem, no problem, I will listen to you. Seeing Jiang Cheng hear what he said, Qi Dongqiang was in a cold sweat again, his original intention was to leave this damn dead city early, instead of spending the night in a strange city, but in the face of the powerful Jiang Cheng, he didn't even dare to show a trace of his thoughts.
"I know you will doubt my words, now I will explain my thoughts to you, we drove in a leather car, we have been driving in Cangxian for an afternoon, but still haven't been able to get out of Cangxian for half a step, which is enough to prove that this is not easy, now that it is getting late, it will become more difficult to get out of the city, so we will spend the night here tonight, and we don't have much gasoline, so we can't continue to waste it." ”
After Jiang Cheng said this, he went straight to the gold shop, the outside of the gold shop is a half-open roller shutter door, and the inside is a stainless steel security door, the security measures in this place of the gold shop are very good, the roller shutter door and the stainless steel door are made of very high-end materials, although it has experienced three years of the end of the world, but it can still be used.
The gold shop was full of cobwebs and dust, and there were several disemboweled, extremely decomposed corpses lying inside, presumably the employees of the gold shop who had not had time to escape after the end of the world.
The strong rancid smell made people's heads swell, but Jiang Cheng entered the gold shop and was not affected by this smell at all.
"It's so delicious here, brother, can we change places to camp?" Li Fei'er didn't suffer too much in the last days, and he didn't live in that kind of room full of rotting corpses.
"If you don't want to stay here, you can go and spend the night inside a pickup truck. Jiang Cheng said coldly, there was no trace of pity at all.
Li Fei'er knew that Jiang Cheng's strength was strong, so she didn't dare to refute it at all, she looked at the sky outside that was getting dark, and finally compromised with Jiang Cheng.
Qi Dongqiang is Boss Ling's most proud little brother, and this qiē is because of his loyalty to Boss Ling, and this loyalty also applies here to Li Fei'er.
After moving out a few rotten corpses, and then carefully cleaning the room with a dilapidated mop, Qi Dongqiang closed the two doors outside by the way.
The counter was full of glittering gold chains and gold bracelets, but at this moment, everyone in the gold shop would not even look at the gold, the paper money had long been invalidated, and even these hard currency gold had gradually withdrawn from the stage of history and became junk metal for forging ordinary weapons.
In the third year of the Basalt Period, the only popular universal currencies on Earth were Worm Pill and Yuan Qi Stone. These things can help humans evolve higher strength, so they will always be in short supply in the last days.
Now the ordinary insect pill has almost lost its effect on Jiang Cheng's strength improvement, and even the third- and second-grade insect pill can produce very limited effects.
He was in dire need of a large number of fourth- and second-grade insect pills, or those very high-quality fourth- and fourth-grade Vitality Divine Stones.
After nothing for a night, Jiang Cheng woke up early the next morning and found that the three of them had also woken up early, to be precise, none of them had slept.
"You guys, haven't slept all night?" Jiang Cheng asked in surprise.
"Sleeping in this terrible city, no matter how you sleep, your heart is not steady. Liu Xinyuan said with some envy, Jiang Cheng's mental state at this moment was very full, while the spirit of the three of them was very sluggish, and he was very envious that Jiang Cheng could fall asleep in such an environment.
"Yes, yes, I was scared all night yesterday, let's get out of this damn city! I don't want to stay here for a moment. Li Fei'er said with red eyes like rabbits.
The only one who didn't express his opinion was Qi Dongqiang, in front of Jiang Cheng, he really didn't dare to speak much.
"Get out, yes, it's time to get out. Jiang Cheng stretched his waist and felt that his whole body was very comfortable.
"Then how are we going to get out? The whole city is hit by ghosts, and we can't get out at all!" Li Fei'er is a more superstitious woman, and he thinks that there must be something unclean here that fascinates her eyes.
"Li Fei'er, can you stop talking nonsense, how can there be ghosts in this world?" Liu Xinyuan's eyes flashed with horror, obviously very afraid of those unwarranted ghosts.
"I don't know if there are ghosts, but I have to tell you something, actually, I don't know how to get out of this city. ”
"What? You don't know?"
Since last night, the three of them have found that Jiang Cheng has always been very calm, and they all think that Jiang Cheng has found a way to get out, so they can sleep very well in this strange dead city.
"Actually, there is no way, if we want to get out of this ghost town, we must first understand it. Jiang Cheng moved his two arms, and then said indifferently.
"How do you understand it?" Liu Xinyuan sucked in the runny snot and muttered quietly.
"Just by finding one of the city's natives, we can really get to know the city, and those who have lived here since the end times must know everything about it. ”
"You say there are still living people in this dead city?" Li Fei'er seemed to grasp the crux of the problem.
"I don't know if there is one, but although the population of Cangxian County is less than one million, I don't think they will all die if they can't get out of this city, and there will definitely be survivors here. ”
This sentence is very reasonable, and it woke up the person in the dream at once. Finding the survivors will reveal the general situation of the city.
After a simple breakfast, the four of them drove the two pickup trucks and began to wander blindly through the streets of Cangxian County, trying to find the people who were still surviving.
Pickup trucks wandered through the city for a long time, and just when people were about to despair, several humans suddenly ran out of the corner of the street.
The humans looked like a family of four, two twins of five or six years old, and a middle-aged couple who had experienced many vicissitudes.
They ran out of the corner, followed by a group of strong men with rifles in their hands.
"Haha, don't want to run, Lao Tzu has eaten your meat today, I heard that the child's meat is delicious, more tender than chicken tenderloin. ”
"Stop, we'll shoot while we're running, and as much as I love to eat human flesh that hasn't been shot by a gun, I don't mind giving you a few guns if you continue to resist needlessly. ”
A couple of strong men are the hunters, and the family of four is the prey of tragedy.
The two children were so slow that the parents had to stop and face the impending crisis with their junk weapons.
Their family of four was obviously very weak, and the two children inside suddenly lowered the combat effectiveness of this team.
