Chapter 1: The Death of the Traverser
"Day 5...... Gotta go out. ”
Lu Yuanming said this to himself for the ninth time.
He traveled back in time, to the future world five years later, in 2028.
This is also the earth, why do you say that?
For from the broken windows of the room, he could see that the streets were full of English letters, and he recognized the frequent occurrence of the word New York, as well as the words South Bronx.
That's right, he traveled to the South Bronx in New York, USA, a famous slum area of New York.
Lu Yuanming is a soul piercing, and the original owner of the body that crossed over was an Asian, the key was that Lu Yuanming didn't get a single memory of this body, so he didn't know who the original owner of this body was named, and he didn't know the social relationship of the original owner of this body, etc.
Judging from the information that Lu Yuanming got from exploring the apartment room, the age of the original owner of this body was not very old, it should be about the same age as before he crossed over, and they were all in their twenties.
The original owner of the body is very poor, and the apartment he lives in is very dilapidated, not counting, there is almost no furniture in the room, and it is 2028, the original owner of the body does not even have a mobile phone, Lu Yuanming is relying on peeking out of the window to confirm the current time, very simply, it is another presidential election in the United States, and those billboards are contracted by the information of the presidential candidate, which makes Lu Yuanming know the current time.
If it's just poverty, if you can live another life, Lu Yuanming won't be picky.
But the point is that the original owner of this body is not only poor, but also an addict!!
This flesh is so thin that it can be, its arms are full of pinholes, Lu Yuanming just moved for a while and began to breathe, looking in the mirror, the eyes of the original owner of the flesh were deep-set, his face was pale, and he looked like he was dying.
Lu Yuanming almost had the heart to commit suicide.
All right!
The body is weak and dying, he endured all of this, at most it is great to change the past of this body with his will, after all, he is a soul wearer, and he himself has never had these bad habits, so there will only be physical withdrawal reactions, there will be no addiction, as long as the will is firm, he will not have these bad habits again.
If it's just these, Lu Yuanming will endure it, but the key is more than that!
From the moment he crossed over, there were people knocking on the door, blacks, whites, and all kinds of Asians, all of whom were not good people at first glance, most of them were thin drug friends, and there were some thugs, and the most terrible thing was that there were obviously gangsters among the people who came to him, real gangsters.
Why can Lu Yuanming be so confirmed?
He swore by the few bullet holes that had just appeared in the door of his room, what the fuck was this not a gangster?
Lu Yuanming was a college graduate from an ordinary family in country Z before he crossed over, where did he deal with any gangsters!
As an ordinary person in country Z, what drugs, what guns, what gangsters, these are too far away from him, as if they were as far away as building politics on the Internet.
So Lu Yuanming was so frightened that he didn't dare to go out at all, and he didn't dare to have any response to outsiders, after crossing over, he relied on a few pieces of bread found in the room to boil down, drank tap water when he was thirsty, and was hungry...... There's really no way, he can only be hungry, and he just lasts for four days, he really can't hold on, he has to go out!
"I found a total of six dollars and thirty-five cents, I don't know what the prices are now, but I should be able to buy some food and ...... Let's take it one step at a time. ”
Lu Yuanming has too many ideas, such as going back to country Z, especially to Chongqing, he wants to confirm whether he still exists, whether his parents are also there, whether he has traveled to the future or to a parallel world, he wants to confirm.
Before the crossing, Lu Yuanming was a vegetative person, and he was in a car accident during an interview at the age of 23, shortly after graduation.
Since then, he has not been able to move, he can't even do it with his eyelids trembling, but the miraculous thing is that he is conscious, he can hear the people around him, and he can also feel the physical presence, but he just can't make any movements, according to the doctor's words to his parents and sister, his various symptoms indicate that he has become a vegetative person, and there is no guarantee that he will be able to wake up in the future.
Lu Yuanming spent more than half a year in this kind of suffering, he was trapped in the dark, until a beam of light appeared in front of him, Lu Yuanming subconsciously "ran" to this light, and then he crossed into the body of this Asian American.
What's even more amazing is that he can still travel back every seventy-two hours, but when he travels back, he is still trapped in the vegetative body, and that situation is no different from death...... No, being trapped in the dark, except for being able to hear the sounds around you, is simply more terrifying than death!
(There are so many puzzles, why can I cross over?) And it's a time trip to the future...... In short, first find a way to keep this body alive, and then go back to Chongqing, country Z, to have a look! )
Lu Yuanming thought about his long-term plans for the future, but now he had to face going out...... In a city and region full of gangsters, drug traffickers, robbers, and shootings, it is no less than a battlefield for Lu Yuanming!
He leaned on the door and listened to the movement outside, and he made sure for at least a few minutes before he carefully opened the door and slowly moved out.
Outside the door is a dilapidated apartment corridor, wooden floor, walking on it will make a sound, and the corridor is dimly lit, there is an electric light on each floor, and these bulbs are still the most old-fashioned yellow lights, I don't know if it is old and unrepaired, the lights on many floors are still flickering.
Seeing this, Lu Yuanming felt furious in his heart, this old apartment was really like the place where those ghost curse horror movies happened.
But now he was so hungry that he couldn't care about it, so he ran briskly towards the exit of the first floor of the apartment while there was no one in the corridor.
Just when Lu Yuanming ran to the door of the apartment, he suddenly inexplicably felt that someone was spying on him behind him, it was the feeling of itching behind him, he subconsciously turned his head to look, but saw that the corridor behind him was pitch black, starting from the four floors he came down, the lights on each floor were completely dimmed, except for the light shining in from outside the apartment behind Lu Yuanming, he was dark and deep everywhere he looked, like the entrance to hell.
Lu Yuanming was trembling all over, he couldn't see through the darkness, but he always felt that someone was watching him in the darkness...... Maybe not people!
Originating from the instinct of life to survive, Lu Yuanming began to run out of the apartment, the unknown horror made his mind blank, and he even screamed involuntarily, but just when he stepped out of the apartment and was about to rush into the sun, a flower pot fell straight down from the top of the apartment, and smashed on Lu Yuanming's head impartially.
With a crisp snap, Lu Yuanming's head immediately broke and his blood flowed, and the whole person was smashed to the ground, and the huge feeling of dizziness made him almost fall unconscious.
But I don't know if he has experienced being hit by a car and becoming a vegetative person, so Lu Yuanming has a certain resistance to vertigo, or driven by the inexplicable terror behind him, in short, he didn't faint for a while, but lay on the ground and moved to the sunlight outside the apartment with his fingers little by little.
Lu Yuanming's corner of his eyes could obliquely see the interior of the apartment, and he seemed to see the darkness coming in a trance, and the darkness in the apartment seemed to have turned into some kind of liquid at this moment, and it was spreading towards him at a rapid speed.
You can't be touched by the darkness!
Lu Yuanming instinctively knew this, if he was touched by the darkness, then he might encounter torture ten thousand times more terrifying than death, than turning into a vegetative person!
Fighting with the last strength, Lu Yuanming moved his fingers and crawled towards the sun, obviously not even half a meter away, but Lu Yuanming climbed so much that he even turned over his fingernails, a bloody piece, and finally, when the darkness behind him was less than a meter away from him, his head stretched into the sun, and at this moment, he felt the warm breath spread from the top of his head to his body, the goosebumps kept rising, and the freezing feeling from the bottom of his heart disappeared.
(Comes to life...... )
Just when Lu Yuanming was completely relieved, a window on the upper floor of the apartment opened, and a pair of hands full of tumors held a tattered TV set and threw it out, smashing it straight on Lu Yuanming's head, and with an explosion, Lu Yuanming's head was completely smashed.
And then...... Lu Yuanming looked at his smashed corpse from a strange perspective, he seemed to be hanging in the air about five or six meters above the corpse and looking down, Lu Yuanming felt that he should be afraid, fearful, angry, excited, etc., but now he has no emotions at all, not even thinking, Lu Yuanming feels that the "I" as his own existence is dissipating......
Then in the next second, or when he couldn't even feel the time, Lu Yuanming was pulled "down" by a majestic and huge force!
Lu Yuanming saw a huge spiral wonder, similar to a tornado, or a typhoon in the weather, he saw all this from a higher perspective, and the core of this huge spiral storm was the earth, he was caught in the spiral storm, pitch black, chaotic, inexplicable, he was pulled and fell down, from top to bottom, fell I don't know how many distances.
Then Lu Yuanming saw the earth, a boundless black and gray earth, far away there was something bigger than the stars, he couldn't see it really, and below him, he was falling towards a burning and shattered New York Cheng......
Lu Yuanming suddenly had an understanding at this moment.
He's dead.
This is the world after human death!
