Sitting in the passenger seat, Lin Mo chatted with 416 quite comfortably.
On the dark road, their car was the only one moving quickly, like a stream of light slowly sliding through the darkness.
Lin Mo told 416 not to be too obsessed with whether you have parents or not.
"Some people are born without parents. Didn't I just tell you the story of the Monkey King? Sun Dasheng didn't have parents. He was born without parents. Didn't he get ahead and live a good life?"
Lin Mo is not an expert in comforting people, he can only say whatever comes to his mind.
416 didn’t say anything, and I don’t know if he heard it or not.
"No one gave you birthday gifts before, but they will in the future. At least I will give them, and so will other friends. When I take you home next time, you will make more friends. Not only will you get gifts, but you will also
You have to give them gifts too.”
Speaking of this, 416 finally came to his senses.
Then he asked about the home called Green Garden Community, his face full of longing.
Lin Moxin said that little girls are easy to coax, wouldn't this be enough?
"By the way, you have to call the cat you pick up this time Sister Maomao. She is also a family member of our Green Garden community."
"How is she?"
“I love to play, sometimes I’m not too serious, but I’m a very nice person.”
"I quite like this character, and I also love to play."
"I estimate that you will definitely become very good friends."
As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, something appeared on the road ahead. Fortunately, 416 responded very quickly and handled it very well. During an emergency lane change, the tires made a sharp sound as they rubbed against the ground, and hit the tree next to them.
.
Fortunately, Lin Mo and the others were wearing seat belts. Due to the inertia, they were also tightly tied to their seats by the seat belts. Otherwise, they would both have to fly out and have a hard landing.
Lin Mo gathered his breath and finally let out a cry.
"pain!"
There was nothing going on with 416 next to her. She looked sideways at a black figure thrown away on the road and said: "It's a deer!"
Since the nightmare came, human activities have been reduced by more than half, and the wild environment has improved immediately. Many places are covered with trees and weeds, and the wild animals that were almost extinct are slowly recovering.
There are wild deer here.
I originally thought there was only one, but after a while, a group of deer came running over there, as well as a few deer.
The deer curiously looked at the person in the smoking and deformed car. When he saw the person crawling out, he immediately threw it away as if he was frightened.
"Is something okay?" Lin Mo rubbed his shoulders and asked.
416 said that her body function and strength are two to three times that of a normal adult male. Based on this calculation, even if you are killed, I may only be slightly injured.
Lin Mo was speechless for a while.
Now the car is totaled and we can only walk in the wilderness.
Fortunately, they had already walked more than half of the distance, and there was not much distance left. Through the moonlight, they could see the sparkling lights of the big city in the distance.
It was not until late at night that we entered this former big city.
Before the nightmare came, this place was considered a world-famous big city. Of course, this big does not refer to the area, but to the extremely large population and extremely high density.
One city contains one-fifth of the country's population, which is obviously an exaggeration.
After entering the city, you can see some scattered lights.
Most places are dark with lights.
In this special period, various resources are tight, especially energy, so it is good to be able to maintain power supply.
Walking on the streets that are messy and full of garbage, you can see from the billboards and extinguished neon lights on both sides of the road that this place used to be quite prosperous.
As you can imagine, the place is bustling with lights, bustling with pedestrians, and trendy, full of vitality; but now, it's dark and silent, and horror movie set designers call it professional when they see it.
In a place like this, you might think there is no one here.
Actually it's not.
From the moment Lin Mo and 416 entered the city, they noticed people, and there were a lot of them.
Some were walking aimlessly on the street.
Some were sitting on the ground in a daze, or muttering words that others could not understand.
There are even more people hidden in the building, the number of which is unimaginable.
Lin Mo was very curious. This is the capital of a neighboring country and the most economically developed place. Why doesn't everyone go to the safe zone?
If you don’t go to the safe zone, you can’t ‘sleep’ safely, and it’s hard for your body to get rest.
But everyone here seems to be used to it.
Some people walk back and forth on the road not just to prevent them from falling asleep, but after all, this treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.
Even if you are extremely sleepy, you still have to fall asleep. This is due to physiology and cannot be overcome by willpower alone.
The more I observed, the more I felt something was wrong.
Lin Mo has been to many safe zones, and he even went to the White Eagle Country and was exposed to the conditions there, but they were all different from here.
There is an indescribable weirdness everywhere here.
But if Lin Mo was asked to tell him what was wrong, he couldn't say it right away.
At this moment, the two people were stopped by an old woman.
The other person was dressed decently, his hair was neatly combed, and he was holding a cloth bag in his hand. He was nodding to say hello to Lin Mo and 416.
Very kind.
Then the other party took out a leaflet and handed it over.
Distributing flyers?
Is the employment pressure in neighboring countries so great that even the elderly are coming out to hand out leaflets?
Fortunately, the other party didn't mention fitness and swimming to find out more.
Lin Mo took the flyer and read it. 416 next to him might have felt that the other party only gave it to Lin Mo but not to her, and felt that he was being left out. He immediately reached out to the old woman to ask for it.
The other party nodded with a smile and handed another one over.
Lin Mo and 416 watched together.
Only after looking at it did I realize that it was not swimming for fitness, but a missionary exercise.
It says: The Redemption Society saves the common people. Only by joining the Redemption Society can you obtain shelter and survive this catastrophe.
There are many words like this, and they are very confusing.
416 next to him showed disdain and was about to speak, but Lin Mo pulled him back.
She was also smart and swallowed back what she was about to say.
Lin Mo asked 416 to tell the other party that they were willing to join the Redemption Society and obtain asylum.
416 looked like you know how to play, and started talking to the old woman in fluent neighboring languages, and the conversation soon became lively.
When the old woman saw that she had succeeded in recruiting people, she was very happy. She guessed that it was just like recruiting members at a gym. If you could attract a member, you would get a commission.
Can you be unhappy?
Since you want to join a membership, you must go to their place, go through the procedures, and go through the formalities.
The old woman said that their base was not far away, and she chatted quietly with 416 along the way and had a great time.
The other party was right, it was indeed not far away. After walking a few hundred meters at most, we arrived at an old place.
The building has three floors, and all other windows and doors are blocked. There is only one entrance, and there are several people sitting at the door.
Seeing the old woman, these people got out of the way and showed friendly smiles to Lin Mo and 416.
When going upstairs, 416 whispered to Lin Mo that many of the people here have joined the Redemption Society. Only by joining the Redemption Society can they gain shelter in the nightmare world.
But even within the Redemption Society, there are many branches. The old woman told her that the one they believe in is the 'Mengtian God' in the Redemption Society.
Of course Lin Mo had never heard of this, but he had learned through Xiaorourou before that there were so many 'gods' created in the Redemption Society.
So it's not surprising at all.
There are many people in the small building.
Judging from some text decorations on the walls inside, this place may have been a cram school with classrooms in the past.
But now the classroom is full of people.
These people were sitting on the ground, including men and women, old and young.
Close your eyes, sway your body with the same frequency, and mutter a sentence at the same time.
Lin Mo didn't understand, so he glanced at 416, who said that these people were chanting something similar to a mantra, which seemed to be praising the God Meng.
There is also a painting hanging on the wall of that classroom.
There were incense, candles and offerings all around.
The painting shows an old woman with a majestic face.
I guess this is Meng Tianshen.
But Lin Mo felt that Meng Tianshen in the painting looked a bit familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
Remembered!
"Holy shit, isn't this my godmother?"
Lin Mo was stunned.
It's her, it's her.
Lin Mo met each other in the diners' restaurant on the Silence. At that time, this terrifying nightmare was particularly interested in Doudou and wanted to adopt Doudou as his grandson.
Doudou is a smart and filial child.
It knew that it would be bad for Lin Mo if he didn't agree, so the child agreed and even encouraged Lin Mo to become his godson.
It's just that there was no news from Meng Ganma after she left with Doudou. Except that the other party said she was in District 11, there were no other clues.
Lin Mo also searched for a long time but couldn't find it.
I didn’t expect to see this ‘godmother’ in this place.
"Meng Tianshen, Grandma Meng, if they are right, then they are right!"
At this moment, Lin Mo's heart was racing. He didn't expect that it would take no effort to find a place without going through iron shoes, but he would meet here by chance.
Hey, wait a minute.
If you say that your cheap godmother is in the capital of a neighboring country, wouldn't it mean that this is District 11?
Lin Mo immediately asked 416 to ask the old woman if she had heard of District 11.
416 Go and ask, then come back and tell Lin Mo.
"The other party has never heard of it."
Lin Mo squinted his eyes.
Don’t the locals know?
Or is it just that this old woman doesn't know?
Never mind.
Since it happened by chance, let's solve it together this time. He has to bring Doudou back.
Of course, this matter must be planned carefully, or at least the situation here must be understood first.
For example, whether Meng Tianshen is the grandmother Doudou recognizes, or whether this is District 11.
If so, then Maomao and the others have lost contact and are trapped here. Do they have any contact with the Redemption Society and District 11?
For a moment, Lin Mo was lost in thought while thinking about the problem.
The old woman over there took them to a room and started to register.
Just ask 416 to make up a fake name to fool him. This is just a formality.
You still have to pay membership fees.
This was not a problem for 416. On the way, they got some currencies from neighboring countries. In Lin Mo's eyes, these things were like waste paper, so he didn't feel bad if he gave them all.
Finally, there is the actual initiation ceremony.
"This needs to be done in a nightmare world."
The old woman talked.
I took two people to a very special room.
This room is not big.
At most eight or nine square meters.
There are a lot of colorful ribbons hanging on the ceiling, and many of them are hanging down, like willow branches.
The room is empty, no one is there.
The old woman said that as long as they fell asleep inside, the initiation ceremony would automatically take place.
Because Lin Mo wanted to find out whether this Meng Tianshen was the cheap godmother, he had to go to sleep to see. 416 had no objection to this. She did whatever Lin Mo did.
Just follow it without thinking.
The two sat down as required. At this time, a few more people came in and stood nearby. The old woman said that these were just to observe the ceremony, so don't worry about it.
Unfortunately, Lin Mo didn't believe these words at all.
I guess this is just for insurance. If you resist the ritual or are unwilling, I guess these people will be used to force you to perform the ritual.
Basically, once you enter this house, you must become theirs, otherwise you will never be able to get out.
Lin Mo will not break up with them now.
With 418 here, if these people make any offensive moves after he and 416 fall into a dream, 418 will directly send them to see their Meng Tianshen.
Lin Mo doesn't have to worry about this at all.
Close your eyes and dream.
Very smooth.
He and 416 went to the dark side of the house.
Looking again, this house is much scarier than it is in the real world.
The main frightening point is that there is a big bug lying on the ceiling.
It's the kind of maggot that's bigger than a person.
This was the first time 416 saw this, and he immediately let out an excited exclamation.
It's like a child going to the zoo for the first time, everything he sees feels new.
The next moment, several tentacles stretched out from the big maggot's head towards Lin Mo and 416's mouths.
"What do you want to do?"
Lin Mo reached out and grabbed a few tentacles, pulled off the big meat maggots on them, and beat them violently.
He understood clearly that the other party was planning to implant something into his body.
It can be understood as parasitism.
Get some larvae to parasitize in the human body.
How could Lin Mo agree to such a thing? A beating would be light. If he hadn't considered that this was his godmother's subordinates, Lin Mo would have chopped up the big meat maggots.
After receiving a beating, the big meat maggot was obviously much more honest than before. It crawled over and rubbed its body against Lin Mo's leg.
It felt like saying, my brothers were beaten and it was my fault, so let’s just forget about it.
Lin Mo is not a grudge-bearing person. Since the other party has admitted his mistake and has not suffered any loss, then forget it.
"God's Coming"
At this moment, the big meat maggot seemed to smell something.
It sniffed at Lin Mo.
Then there was a shiver, and the fat on the body was twisting rapidly. The next moment, it squeaked and stopped moving.
Lin Mo went over and took a look.
"Looks like he's dead!"
"How did you die? Smoked to death?" 416 asked curiously.
Lin Mo rolled his eyes at 416, this little guy is very imitating, and he only learns the right words to criticize people.
They are all self-taught.
"Don't touch it. It died on its own and has nothing to do with us." Lin Mo directly put aside responsibility.
He really didn't know how the big maggot died. Maybe it really had its own disease.
After staying for a while, Lin Mo felt that the time was almost up, so he decided to eat his beans and leave.
In the same room, they saw Lin Mo and the other two people waking up. The old woman came over to congratulate them, saying that from today on, they are all a family.
What can Lin Mo and 416 say, just smile and nod.
As for why the other party thinks they are a family, they probably believe that anyone who dreams in this room will be attacked and parasitized by the big maggot.
As long as they are parasitized, they are their family members.
So Lin Mo and 416 not only had a meal here, but also each received a 'church card'.
The old woman told them that with this, as long as they were in the city, no matter what happened, they could ask their brothers and sisters in the same association for help.
Lin Mo took the opportunity to ask 416 a few questions.
One is whether the other party has seen Meng Tianshen and what is that big bug in the nightmare world.
The old woman said that Meng Tianshen is not something anyone can see if he wants to, and that it requires luck; as for the big bug, it is not called a big bug, but a messenger.
In other words, it is similar to an angel.
Lin Mo was almost unlucky. All the angels from other families were very beautiful, but your family had a big meat bug, and the big bug even suffered from a heart attack. It was so laughable.
No, no, no, I can’t think about it anymore, I’ll laugh out loud if I think about it again.
Lin Mo immediately looked up at the sky, thinking about some horrible, bloody and terrible things, and carefully managed his expression.
He can manage, but 416 cannot.
This guy laughed out loud.
"What's wrong?" The old woman was stunned, a little confused.
Lin Mo secretly poked 416 to make her collapse, and then said seriously: "We can't help but laugh when we think that we can live here safely under the protection of Meng Tianshen in the future."
With superb acting skills, he successfully fooled the old woman.
But as long as the other person falls asleep and takes a look in that room, he will find the corpse of the big insect.
So I stayed here soon.
When she heard that Lin Mo and the two were leaving, the old woman didn't stop him. Maybe she thought that since they were already part of her family, there would be no problem with them going anywhere.
Send it downstairs.
"May Mengtian God bless you." the old woman said.
Out.
The two of them quickened their pace and left.
I just chatted with the old woman and learned a lot about the situation here.
In this place, there is actually no so-called 'safe zone'.
There are no huge walls or strict isolation measures. If you want to survive here, you must join the Redemption Society and be protected by the 'gods' in the Redemption Society.
Otherwise, you will be attacked by nightmares after falling into a dream.
Of course, not everyone is willing to join the Redemption Society.
There are still some people who are unwilling, struggling to survive here, and choosing another life.
For example, some officials from neighboring countries have established many "safe houses" relying on local nightmare response agencies. Of course, the security is much weaker.
When the old woman talked about this, she had a look of disdain on her face. She felt that if she just joined the Redemption Society, everything would be solved. Why should she be so stubborn?
She couldn't figure it out.
Lin Mo knew why. For example, if you believe in Meng Tianshen, you must let the big flesh insect angel come to parasitize you before you can be considered one of their own.
Some people just don't like it when problems are parasitized by weird parasites.
In short, the forces in this place are very complex, mainly because there are many. There are said to be more than a dozen branches of the Redemption Society alone. In the past, it was a competition for incremental growth, but now it is a competition for stocks. Coupled with the official forces that hate the Redemption Society, this place
Why is it such a messed up word?
Lin Mo didn't care about that.
His goal is clear.
Find the cats and those scientists and take them away.
Find Doudou, discuss with the godmother, and take him away.
If the other party disagrees.
Then fall out!
This time Lin Mo's wings are also hardened. If you are not convinced, then do it.
I found a hotel under the control of the Redemption Society, showed my "church certificate", and checked in smoothly.
The hotel owner was very enthusiastic towards them and obviously regarded them as his own.
With a place to stay, Lin Mo and 416 fell asleep. Then he pulled out a paper crane with the name of the cat on it, blew on it, and the paper crane flew outwards.
