Therefore, Liu Chang hesitated again.
Everyone is afraid of death, but people have different degrees of fear of different ways of death—many people can accept peaceful old age and be turned into ashes by fire, but no one wants to be in a stinking sewer, Crushed to pieces by nasty tentacles, then festered to death after being covered in maggots by flies.
If it was this way of death, then Liu Chang would rather be eaten by the giant dog outside - at least it doesn't sound so disgusting!
So, he was faced with another multiple-choice question, which was a more difficult choice than the fight or escape just now—he was thinking whether to climb up and be eaten by giant dogs, or wait here to become a puddle of pus.
He wants to choose to climb up, but no one can be calm in the face of death—not to mention that Liu Chang doesn't want to die at all!
So, he looked at the halo above his head, then at the dark sewer, and at the halo above his head again... In the end, he fell into a deep contradiction.
Facing the fear of death and the contradiction in choosing the way of death, this may be the saddest emotion for human beings. It is like asking a death row prisoner "Do you want to be shot or beheaded?"
Fear was invading, and in the darkness, the sound of every drop of water could set off an uproar in Liu Chang's heart, and the violent barking of the dogs above his head made him dizzy even more.
He didn't even dare to go deep into the sewer to find another exit, because the inside was really extremely dark, and the thick darkness that could obliterate anyone seemed to be the end of life, and there were countless tentacle monsters lurking in it. coming.
Therefore, Liu Chang chose to cowardly grab the ray of light above his head, snuggle under the halo, and, like all people before dying, unconsciously fell into the memories of the past—
He suddenly thought of the college entrance examination, his senior year in high school before the college entrance examination, and then his entire student and childhood days.
Playing, playing games, reading novels, watching anime, occasionally studying...
The fish-flavored pork shreds I have eaten, the basketball I have played, the tubes I have played...
Live a stable life, have been on the yellow net, and watch football late at night with friends...
The urging of parents, the smell of the house...
Liu Chang has never known so clearly as at this moment—it turns out that he has been living in heaven before! Complaining about heaven in heaven, being bored in heaven, playing self-pity in heaven, playing hypocrisy that is so disgusting when I think of it now...
Thinking of arguing with my parents because I didn’t want to read, thinking of running away from home because I didn’t want to read, thinking of standing on the wall of the ancient city because I didn’t want to read, lamenting the sadness of life...
"What's the matter, isn't it just to read more books?" Liu Chang curled up under the bright light, crying for some reason.
He always thought that he was a very strong person, stronger than most people in the apocalypse. But in this darkness, when I recalled my past life and my parents, I still couldn't help my nose twitching.
Time just became muddled in his chaotic thoughts...
He didn't know how long it had passed, but he heard the dog barking above his head suddenly become more violent, and at the same time, gunshots sounded outside the manhole cover.
"Liu Chang!!"
"Liu Chang~~~!!"
After the gunshot, Liu Chang heard a familiar voice, and he got up from his dazed state, staring at the circular halo above his head in a daze.
"saved?"
"Brother Liu Chang!!!" Another scream came from outside, and this time he recognized the voice—it belonged to the little girl.
Dog Bark is no longer there, and the person I am familiar with is at the other end of the light.
No more hesitation, Liu Chang jumped up, grabbed the iron escalator under the manhole cover from below, and climbed step by step from the dark world to the light at the fastest speed.
step by step...
"I'm here!!!" As soon as the head came out, and the body was still in the sewer, Liu Chang couldn't wait to shout to the surroundings: "I'm here!!!"
After climbing out of the manhole cover, someone has already followed the sound - the little girl, the fat man, Li Qingshui.
Everyone is here.
"I'm not dead, haha, I'm not dead!" Rushing out of the manhole cover, Liu Chang trotted all the way, hugged the little girl in his arms and circled around, shouting: "I'm not dead!"
"Haha, I'm not dead!" The little girl was also infected by Liu Chang's joy, and the anxiety on her face instantly turned into joy. The innocent and cheerful smile on her face made the deep long scar on her face form a deep curved arc. Wire.
"Brother, it's great that you're not dead." Fatty also came over and patted him on the shoulder twice, then he glanced around and noticed Liu Chang's red and swollen eye sockets, "Are you crying?"
"I will cry? Hahaha..." Liu Chang laughed loudly: "It's because the sewer is too smelly, it's smoked."
"You crawled out of the sewer?" Li Qingshui stood aside, took out alcohol and pills while thinking, and wondered: "You are really good enough to get into the manhole cover during the giant dog fight , I thought you were going to die. However, it shouldn't be..."
"Shouldn't what?" Liu Chang took the alcohol and poured it on his wound.
"You shouldn't be dead!" Li Qingshui's words made Liu Chang's hands tremble, and the alcohol was spilled, "What do you mean you shouldn't be dead, you really want me to die!"
"No, it's been an hour since I went back and forth, and your wound is bleeding and you're in a sewer, so logically, you should be dead, right?" Li Qingshui rubbed his chin, "You Immortal, unscientific!"
"Whether he is scientific or not, maybe it's luck, anyway, didn't I survive?" Liu Chang danced, "I never felt that surviving is such a lucky thing."
"But it's still unscientific, no, I have to go down and have a look later." Li Qingshui said.
"Don't tell me, don't let me die for a while. You jumped in and died. How wronged!" After cleaning his wound, Liu Chang took the pills, and then stuffed the remaining alcohol back into Li Qingshui's backpack. "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how did you drive that big dog away?"
"Thirty catties of dog meat were used in exchange for six or seven armed soldiers. They had high-powered military rifles in their hands. They were the ones who fired to scare the big dog away just now."
"Then what about them?" Liu Chang looked around, but didn't see anyone else.
"Go after that giant dog. From their point of view, that giant dog is just a big piece of fat. There are hundreds of thousands of catties in weight. Their entire team can't finish it." Li Qingshui pointed at the few people The direction of the pursuit, added: "It's a pity that they can't catch up, and even if they can catch up, it may not be useful. Although they are powerful rifles, but their physical strength is too weak. If the giant dog is desperate, I feel Those soldiers will die."
"Damn, do you think the giant dog will kill the carbine?" Liu Chang wanted to pack up and leave as soon as he spoke, wanting to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
"No, the gunfire has scared it away, and you think those soldiers can outrun it? Don't worry, we'll wait a little longer, and they will come back."
While Li Qingshui was speaking, Liu Chang heard the rustling of shoes stepping on the grass, and then a few soldiers carrying guns came out of the grass with resentful faces.
