After hearing the thin woman's introduction, Tang Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly and became interested in the end of the block she mentioned.
If he had a choice, he would go to the end of this street as far as possible and find a way to leave this weird city.
People go to higher places, even if their memory is lost, Tang Zhen is still unwilling to be lonely.
This is the common characteristic of strong people. They will not run away from difficulties, but will face them and pursue the feeling of comfort when they reach the top.
As for why he appeared here, we can only find the answer slowly, and there is no need to rush.
The most critical point now is to figure out what is the mystery behind these houses on the roadside?
After all, this is the key to leaving the desperate city, and it is also the place Tang Zhen plans to explore. Sufficient intelligence is the key to action.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhen looked at the thin woman again: "Tell me carefully what's going on in those houses. If your answer satisfies me, I can let you go.
But if you dare to deceive me, I will put you in that room and see if you are afraid when the time comes?"
Hearing Tang Zhen's threats, the thin woman shivered with fright and subconsciously took two steps back, as if she wanted to escape.
But as soon as she took a step forward, she stepped back and looked at Tang Zhen with pleading eyes.
She put her hands on her chest, with a pleading look on her face: "I definitely didn't lie to you, and I will tell you everything I know. Please, please don't put me into those terrible houses!"
The thin woman looked pitiful and pitiful, with her big eyes full of tears.
At this time, she looked like a helpless stray kitten, trembling with fear.
Tang Zhen nodded and tried to soften his expression: "So tell me now, what do you know about these houses?"
The thin woman dared to hesitate and quickly told Tang Zhen everything she knew.
It turns out that these strange-style houses are empty most of the time, and they look messy and dilapidated inside. The doors are closed and there is no one around.
In this case, you must not enter hastily, otherwise you may never get out again.
But you never know when the doors of these buildings will open automatically. At this time, the buildings are very safe.
When the desperate people on the street see it, they will immediately enter it to search for supplies and bring out everything they can use.
Even if there are some things that you don't need, you can still trade them to get what you need.
This is also the only source of food for the desperate. If you are lucky, you can also pick up some useful weapons.
It seems pretty good, but actually it's not.
Although the area of this block is so large that it is almost impossible to count, the streets are criss-crossed like a spider web, and the houses are dotted here and there.
But it is still very difficult to find a house with an open door. What the desperate people have to do every day is to search around the neighborhood.
As soon as they see the door of a house open, desperate people will swarm up and start snatching away like flies.
Firstly, the time to open the house is limited, and secondly, there are too many people snatching it. If you move too slowly, you may not get anything in the end.
Limited resources make competition more intense, and the advantage of having more people is reflected at this time.
In order to obtain more resources, many desperate people have formed groups and occupied a block.
They regard many streets and alleys as their own private territory and strictly prohibit other survivors from entering. Otherwise, they will drive away and beat the intruders, and even kill and devour the intruders.
Fights over resources would break out from time to time, and many desperate people lost their lives in the fights.
The dwarf Tang Zhen was chasing before was the boss of dozens of nearby branch streets, commanding a large number of desperate people.
However, with Tang Zhen's action, this group no longer exists, and it is estimated that this area will be occupied by other desperate people before long.
In addition to these organized desperate people, there are also some loners who have not joined the group, such as the thin woman in front of me.
They carefully wandered through the cracks in the streets, looking for some hidden corners, and they would find something from time to time.
Compared with those organized desperate people, this kind of life of hiding in Tibet is undoubtedly more difficult, and they are always worried that they may die unexpectedly at any time.
The reason why they don't join these teams is that they don't want to be bullied, lest they be forced to do something they don't want to do.
There are many perverts among desperate people, and only the same perverts can live with them.
But the main reason is that the lone traveler is afraid of following these groups into a room with a crack in the door, and then trying to find a way to get out alive.
When light shines through the door of the house, the scene inside will change greatly. It will no longer be the original dilapidated appearance, but will become even more strange and mysterious.
It is said that there will be residents in the house, various supplies, and all kinds of unimaginable things.
It is no exaggeration to say that there are murderous intentions everywhere.
For the desperate, the house at this time is a treasure. Although it is more dangerous, the rewards after success are also richer.
The purpose of entering these houses, in addition to collecting supplies, the most important thing is to obtain a special voucher.
This kind of voucher is hard currency in the city of despair, especially in this neighborhood, where many people are trying to collect vouchers and then move on to the next block.
It is said that there is a better environment there, there is more food, and life is more comfortable.
However, it is not an easy task to collect enough vouchers. Sometimes, you may not be able to exchange for a voucher even if you accumulate supplies for a year.
Most of the desperate people are of low strength and have no chance to collect enough certificates, so they can only stay in this neighborhood.
While they endured the torment of hunger and lack of supplies, they also had to guard against the night watchers who appeared on the streets every midnight.
The so-called night watchers are actually those desperate people who died in houses due to various reasons.
After they were resurrected, they became extremely terrifying, and their original memories were completely lost. They became pure killing machines.
They appear at midnight, wandering on the streets, and when it is almost dawn, they will return to the house where they died.
This happens over and over again, and it will continue to happen unless they are killed.
If you are encountered by these night watchers, you will be chased by them. If you are unlucky, you will turn into a cold corpse.
At this time, desperate people either run and hide on the streets, or find hidden corners to hide. In short, they cannot be caught by these night watchers.
However, if you are strong enough, you can also hunt these night watchers, because they often carry some supplies with them, which are what they harvested in the house before they died.
Unfortunately, this is not an easy task, because the night watchers are not only extremely powerful, but also feel no pain. When they encounter prey, they appear in groups.
Once you are trapped by a night watcher, more and more night watchers will appear. Unless you have wings, it will be impossible to escape easily.
