"I'm dead! Orange, where are you and why did you abandon me?"
"I'm so cold and tired, why don't you come to me..."
Dai Moli murmured to herself, her body trembling and her face filled with resentment.
Zhang Yi saw that Dai Moli's mood was not right, so he turned around and ran towards higher ground without looking back.
However, the next moment, his shoulders sank, and a hand grabbed his throat from behind.
"Where are you going? Are you abandoning me like Orange?" Dai Moli's body was already pressed against her back.
cold!
Zhang Yi's body was trembling, his limbs began to stiffen, and the water around him was getting faster and faster. Zhang Yi knew what would happen to him if he didn't say something...
"Wait a minute, I'm not Zhao Ju, but I know where he is and can take you to find him!"
"real?"
"It's absolutely true, you saved my life, I won't lie to you."
Wow... Wow...
Dai Moli didn't respond. Looking at the rising water, Zhang Yi couldn't help but hold his breath.
Suddenly, the hand on his neck let go.
Zhang Yi took a breath and swam forward with all his strength. When he swam out of the river, he lay exhausted on the ground and gasped for air.
When he looked back, he saw that his back had been completely swallowed up by the river, and Dai Moli was standing next to him, staring at him without saying a word.
Zhang Yi sat on the ground and took a few breaths to calm himself down.
In the distance are the streets shrouded in darkness. The whole city is lifeless. Not to mention vehicles and pedestrians, there is not even a ghost on the road.
This is obviously not a world he is familiar with.
"Is there any way you can send me back?"
Dai Moli shook her head indifferently.
"Don't you know how to get back?"
"Uh, let me think about it."
Zhang Yi pretended to cover his forehead and think. He was afraid that if he said he didn't know, Dai Moli would drag him into the water and drown him the next second.
"Hey, there seems to be light there, what is that place?"
At this time, a faint light suddenly appeared in Zhang Yi's sight, appearing and disappearing in the dim world in front of him, as if someone was guiding him there with a signal light.
"Where is that place over there?"
Dai Moli looked in the direction he pointed, but didn't see any light: "I don't know, but the place you pointed to is near the passenger terminal."
"Let's go and have a look."
Zhang Yi got up from the ground. It was not far from the bus station. It would take about half an hour to walk back.
Dai Moli did not move, staring at Zhang Yi: "It's very dangerous over there!"
Even she said it was dangerous, so it was obvious that the road ahead was not easy.
Zhang Yi couldn't care about that much. He only knew that he would stay here until Dai Moli's patience was worn away, and he would not escape death.
"You always have to give it a try. Since there is light, maybe there is an exit."
Seeing that Dai Moli was unmoved, Zhang Yi added: "You don't want to stay here forever."
Dai Moli frowned slightly: "Okay, but you have to promise me three things."
"First, if anyone calls you on the road, don't look back, and don't answer anyone who talks to you."
"Second, we should not have contact easily. If we are seen by other things, we will get into trouble."
"Third, don't trust anyone."
"Anyone? Including you?"
Dai Moli nodded seriously: "Sometimes, including me."
"Okay, I remember."
Zhang Yi nodded heavily and kept these three things in mind.
Just in case, Dai Moli fished out a rope from the river and tied the rope around their wrists to ensure that Zhang Yi would not escape. After being prepared, Zhang Yi and Dai Moli walked along the way they came.
Go back.
The two walked down the exit of the national highway and saw the sign of the passenger terminal in the distance.
Zhang Yi glanced inside the passenger terminal through the rusty iron door. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly, but he always felt like someone was standing in the darkness looking at him.
"Go quickly!"
Dai Moli pulled Zhang Yi forward quickly, and she didn't dare to stop when she got here.
"Buzz! Bang!"
The two of them had not walked a few steps when the iron door of the passenger terminal made a harsh friction sound as if it had been pushed by something.
But no one dared to look back, so they could only bite the bullet and keep walking forward.
The buildings here are no longer consistent with reality. What you can see is mostly ruins of collapsed buildings, a mess.
"How far is it?"
Dai Moli began to feel uneasy, as if there was some unspeakable creature hiding in the darkness.
Zhang Yi looked ahead, and the light that appeared and disappeared in the ruins seemed to be able to penetrate the buildings here and guide him to go there.
"It's right in front, very close. Let's go faster."
Feeling that the light was getting closer, Zhang Yi quickened his pace.
"etc!"
However, Dai Moli suddenly stopped at this moment and signaled Zhang Yi not to go any further.
Zhang Yi looked at her doubtfully.
"Something is coming from ahead."
"What?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yi saw two children, a boy and a girl, walking forward holding a white sail at the end of the road.
"Crash..."
A gust of cool wind blew over, and pieces of white paper flew past the feet of the two of them.
The faces of the two children were so pale that they were smeared with bright red blush.
A burst of laughter burst from his mouth.
A group of people followed closely behind the two children, wearing white mourning clothes, scattering paper money and playing suona.
There was a coffin being carried behind. It was obviously a funeral, but everyone was smiling.
If you look behind you, you can't see the tail of the team.
Funeral processions are very common, but when Zhang Yi looked at this procession, he felt it was very strange.
Seeing the team marching toward him in a mighty manner, Zhang Yi began to retreat and wanted to run back, but Dai Moli held him back with a rope: "Don't even think about running, it's too late!"
"What should we do?"
"Close your eyes, pull the rope and follow me. I will take you forward. I can't speak next. Until it is safe, no matter who calls you, don't speak. Don't open your eyes!"
"Then how can I be sure it's you who wants me to open my eyes?"
"If it's safe, I'll pull the rope three times in a row."
Zhang Yi was silent for two seconds and nodded: "Okay!"
He had no choice. If he wanted to survive, he had no choice but to listen to Dai Moli.
Closing your eyes, your vision fell into darkness.
The sound of the suona was getting closer and closer, and Zhang Yi felt something walking past him. He tightly grasped the rope on his wrist and walked forward under the guidance of Dai Moli.
One step, two steps,
Zhang Yi could keep up with Dai Moli's pace at first, but after taking more than ten steps, his body began to tremble uncontrollably, and his facial muscles also spasmed slightly.
Every time you take a step, pause.
Even though he knew that Dai Moli was safe until he found Zhao Ju, as soon as he raised his feet, he had to take a lot of courage to put his foot down.
Closing his eyes, he couldn't see anything, he lost his direction, the concept of time, and darkness became the only thing he knew in this world. Zhang Yi always had the feeling that there was a bottomless abyss in front of him, waiting for him to step into it.
"Boom!"
There was a sudden sound, and Zhang Yi instantly became weak from the knees down, and he stumbled forward and fell to the ground.
The struggle between reason and uneasiness prompted him to open his eyes and see what was outside.
Dai Moli didn't speak, she just pulled the rope on Zhang Yi's hand and motioned for him to move forward.
If possible, he would rather lie on the ground now. At least the feeling of his hands touching the ground can make him feel a little more at ease.
But Dai Moli's pulling became more and more urgent, reminding herself to leave quickly.
Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and stood up and continued walking forward.
At this time, Dai Moli, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
"We're here, please open your eyes."
Zhang Yi did not open his eyes.
"Really, we're here, open your eyes quickly, let's continue on our way."
Zhang Yi pulled the rope, but there was no response from the other end of the rope. Instead, Dai Moli's urging became increasingly impatient.
"Hurry up, this place is very dangerous. If you don't leave, I will leave."
"I'm not kidding you, hurry up."
"If you don't open your eyes, I will twist your head off right now and dig out your heart."
"Open your eyes, open your eyes, you are talking, are you mute?"
"Asshole, are you deaf? Open your damn eyes!"
Dai Moli's voice became sharper and shriller, and her voice gradually began to distort. It was not her voice, but more like a man's.
Zhang Yi's lips were trembling and his hands were clenched into fists.
"Deaf and mute blind man, go to hell!"
After a while of cursing, the man's voice gradually faded away.
At this time, Zhang Yi felt the rope on his wrist being pulled a few times, and he continued to follow the pulling of the rope and move forward.
After hearing the sound just now, Zhang Yi gradually adapted to this feeling.
"It's safe."
Dai Moli's voice sounded
Zhang Yi did not open his eyes. Seeing this, Dai Moli pulled the rope three times: "You can open your eyes now."
Zhang Yi felt the rope being pulled three times before he dared to open his eyes.
After seeing that it was Dai Moli in front of him, Zhang Yi took a deep breath, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and restrained his urge to look back.
"Just now……"
"Go first, this place is not safe either."
Dai Moli didn't dare to stay any longer, and the two of them walked towards the dark alley in the distance.
Mentioning just now, Dai Moli also had a look of fear on her face.
"I didn't expect that behind the team, there are some old guys who have been dead for who knows how many years. One of the old guys seems to have noticed that you are alive and stopped me and refused to let me go."
"It's really dangerous."
Zhang Yi nodded, thinking about how he felt when he pretended to be blind, his body began to tremble involuntarily.
"By the way, my name is Zhang Yi."
"Justice?"
"Zhang Fei's Zhang, elegant Yi."
"Oh, how much further."
Zhang Yi looked forward, the light was getting closer and closer: "It's right in front!!"
The two of them quickened their pace and walked forward. When they walked out of the alley, the faint lights on the street gradually became clearer, until the pink light shone on Zhang Yi's face.
Zhang Yi's eyes widened and he looked at the yellowing sticker on the pink glass door in front of him that read the word "Massage". His expression became strange:
