Tang Tang walked along the river for a day and a night.
In the end, she was depressed and found that the river was blocked by many large stones at the narrowest point. Not only that, but also high boulders were piled up on the parallel ground.
She looked up, and when the fog was thinner during the day, she visually estimated that the stone wall was more than three meters high.
Tang Tang glanced at the road sign that was still kept aside, it was an unknown place, but what is certain is that the direction of the river is the direction of leaving here.
It's just that this way out is blocked now, Tang Tang sighed, reached out and tried to push down the stone wall, but it didn't move at all, it was very strong.
She frowned and sat on the ground against the stone wall.
There are fewer residential buildings here than on the school side, and the most common ones I have seen along the way are those low and small houses. And most of them look very old, and there are even a few strange holes in the mottled walls, which always make people feel insecure.
"well-"
Tang Tang sighed deeply, and once again called out instant noodles from her pocket. She chewed one bite at a time, thinking about whether to finish eating and trying to climb over the stone wall.
This place always gives people a very strange feeling. Although there are zombies and people who have collapsed in despair at the school, it feels relatively normal. But here, um... I can't describe the feeling, but it's weird. It's just that Tang Tang couldn't figure out what was so strange about it.
The unknown is always scary.
At the school before, because of Jiang Zhu's reason, although the two had an unpleasant fight before, but the three-year relationship is there, subconsciously choose to believe it. And he is the male lead, not only Jiang Zhu, but also the character of the male lead group can be trusted.
But here, it is a completely strange place. There are no people I know, no characters in the plot, everything needs to be considered by Tang Tang himself. If you think about success, you will live, if you don't, you will die.
When Tang Tang thought of death, his heart felt furious.
I didn't have any appetite anymore, so I stuffed the remaining instant noodles into my pocket, turned around and prepared to climb out.
The stone wall was piled up with big stones. Each stone is more than one meter high, and the stone is smooth throughout. Although there are some gaps between the stones, it is quite difficult to hold them tightly with your hands.
Tang Tang tried several times, but each time before his feet could be raised, his hands had already slipped out of the narrow gap.
Just when she was desperate, she suddenly thought that she had a knife. With this thought, she stuffed her hands into her jacket, and then summoned two small daggers, pretending to carry them with her.
After all, this place is very weird, in case someone is staring at it, she won't notice it.
With the help of the dagger, it will be much better, at least it can support her enough to lift her feet. But it was not enough, the stone was too high, and her feet couldn't manage to get firmly into the gap after being lifted more than one meter.
Just when she struggled desperately to reach the first big rock, and saw that there were only two rocks left, an extremely indifferent voice suddenly came from behind, a girl.
"Where are you going?"
! !
Tang Tang was startled by the sudden female voice, the soles of her feet slipped instantly, and almost fell directly.
Fortunately, her dagger was stuck firmly, hanging her firmly on it.
Tang Tang let out a long breath of relief, but when she thought of the female voice, she immediately raised her breath again.
She turned her head carefully and looked down, only to find that the girl standing below turned out to be the girl who couldn't swim the night before.
what happened
Tang Tang was a little confused for a moment.
"Where are you going?"
The girl got no answer and took a step forward.
Her height is shorter than Tang Tang, only half a head taller than the big stone, less than 1.5 meters. At this moment, she raised her head, stared at Tang Tang standing on the first big rock, and turned her head to look at her.
Tang Tang was a little apprehensive, mainly because the girl looked young, and her eyes were...
How can I describe it, horror? scary? Anyway, it felt like there was no extra emotion in her eyes, and when she looked at her, she felt like a dead person.
She originally thought that Jiang Zhu's eyes were cold enough, but she was wrong, Jiang Zhu is just too cute.
"… I am going out?"
Tang Tang pursed his lips, controlled his legs not to tremble, made himself look calmer, and raised his finger to the opposite side of the stone wall.
"Come down." The girl got the answer, but she was obviously dissatisfied with the answer, and took another step forward. This made Tang Tang nervous and flustered. What did the girl want to do? She was about to cry, her eyes were too scary!
But she remained calm on the surface, "Why, can't I go out?"
"No." The girl shook her head, and was about to lift her foot and take another step forward.
"Wait," Tang Tang yelled quickly, "Stand there and don't come over, if I slip down, I will hit you."
The girl frowned, as if she had thought about her words for a while, and then actually stopped. It's just that I am still very persistent in letting Tang Tang come down.
Tang Tang held his breath in his chest, looked at the girl, then looked up at the two big rocks above, and then looked at the girl again.
Just two big rocks! She managed to get to this position with great difficulty, and she was too unwilling to go down after talking about it! Moreover, this girl is so scary, she is not an ordinary person at first glance, in case there is something terrible waiting for her after going down...
Then she should hold on tight and try her best to climb up!
Tang Tang thought about it, and immediately became excited.
She inserted the knife into the crack of the big rock above, and after shaking it to feel stable, she immediately started kicking her legs up.
Tang Tang knows that she must look funny at this time, but it is important to escape, so let's be funny, she is not someone who cares about her image.
Anyway, Jiang Zhu is not here.
She froze for a moment, why did she think of him again at this moment
Don't think about it, don't think about it, just climb and climb.
When the girl below saw this scene, her eyes immediately turned cold a few more degrees. When she raised her hand, Tang Tang felt her big ball shake and almost fell down.
Tang Tang panicked and climbed a little harder.
"Come down." The girl insisted.
With a sound of "哐—", the girl's foot kicked directly on the big rock that Tang Tang was stepping on.
Tang Tang's big ball trembled violently, and the dagger in her hand jumped out a little. If she hadn't reacted quickly and immediately stabbed the dagger in again, she would have to fall.
She was really scared of this girl, why did she just kick her? The strength is really great!
"Come down!" The girl seemed to be angry, and kicked her feet hard several times.
Tang Tang didn't hold on, this time the dagger really fell off, followed by her, she couldn't stand still, and fell straight to the ground with a plop.
Fortunately, there was a big ball protecting her. Although she hit the ground, it didn't hurt much.
A shadow came down, and Tang Tang's heart was broken. She looked up, and it was the girl who walked in front of her, standing aside at this time, with an indifferent expression and annoyance, staring down at her.
Tang Tangjiu: ...
Standing up silently from the ground, Tang Tang looked down at the girl who only reached her chin. The girl followed her movements, and the movement of bowing her head changed to looking up. She looked at Tang Tang.
Tang Tang also looked at her depressedly, ready to run away while she was not paying attention.
But she found that the girl blinked for a long time...
However, she also found that the girl seemed not ready to do anything other than kicking a stone to prevent her from going out just now, just staring at her.
It's just that the eyes are too scary.
"Then I don't go out, can I go back?" Tang Tang decided to say it directly, pointing to the direction she came from.
The girl didn't speak, just stared at her.
This made Tang Tang unable to see what she was thinking, so she could only bite the bullet and ignore her, and walked back along the river bank again. The mood is very depressed, where did this girl come out, so scary...
She had to find a time to climb the wall when the girl wasn't around, otherwise she would be kicked down every time she climbed, and she would not be exhausted to death.
Tang Tang walked dozens of steps out, did not hear any sound behind him, looked back out of curiosity, thinking that the girl had left to go somewhere else. As a result, he suddenly met the indifferent eyes half a meter away, and was shocked instantly.
"What are you doing with me?" Tang Tang blurted out.
"To prevent you from going out while I'm not looking." The girl answered this time.
Tang Tang's strategy was seen through, and she was very uncomfortable. She turned her head, "Where are the six people who were with you before?"
There was no reply from behind, Tang Tang looked back, the girl was still there, it should be because she simply didn't want to answer her question.
Well, don't answer if you don't answer.
It's just such a silent person following behind him, it's too intrusive.
Tang Tang looked at the route and wondered if he could run away immediately. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. By the way, isn't this girl who can't swim
Tang Tang's mood cleared up, she looked back at the distance between the two, the girl controlled it very well, between half a meter. And they are now keeping a distance of one meter from the river. If Tang Tang runs fast, she is sure that she can jump into the water before the girl stops her.
Tang Tang thought so, so he did it now.
Immediately, he spread his legs and ran, jumped half a meter away from the river, and threw himself into the water with a plop.
And as Tang Tang expected, until she jumped into the water, the girl didn't have time to stop her, and she was standing on the shore at this time, watching her in the water.
Tang Tang is a little proud.
The big ball floated on the surface of the water, and with the current began to float towards the stone wall again. Tang Tang is in the middle of the water anyway, about two meters away from the river. Of course, those who can swim will not pay attention to such a distance, but for those who can't swim, these two meters will be troublesome.
Hey, can't you catch me
It's just that her complacency lasted for three seconds before she froze.
Because she saw that the girl jumped into the water?
Tang Tang was surprised, there is no need to fight so hard to prevent her from going out, right? Wasn't she afraid that the water would drown her
She soon discovered that she was worrying too much. Because she once again noticed with depression that the girl could swim, and she swam very fast, and even swam to her side and pushed her to swim.
It's uncomfortable enough to have a big ball floating with the current, let alone being pushed? Tang Tang couldn't stabilize for a second. In the end, the dead fish curled up in the big ball, and it finally got better.
Eventually, she was pushed ashore.
The atmosphere was awkward, and the girl blinked less frequently.
"Hey, what are you going to do?" Tang Tang was tired and tired, "What's the matter with this stone wall, why are you not allowed to go out?"
"It's dangerous outside."
It took a long time for the girl to say such a sentence.
"Dangerous?" Tang Tang looked up and down the girl in front of her, not understanding what a girl defines herself as, doesn't she think she looks more dangerous
"Yeah." The girl replied.
"How do you know it's dangerous outside? Have you gone out and seen it?"
"No."
"Then why do you think so?"
The girl stopped talking again.
Tang Tang had a headache, "So you stopped me because you were worried that I would be in danger after I went out?" She could only think of this kind of explanation.
"Um."
"Then just tell me directly, why did you kick, if I didn't perceive your power fluctuations, I almost thought you wanted to kill me..."
Tang Tang held his forehead and leaned against the stone wall.
The girl seems to have very few words, and she doesn't answer Tang Tang's words. The two sat face to face, and Tang Tang noticed that her clothes were soaked. Even in summer, she would probably catch a cold if she went on like this.
For the sake of the girl not using the power on her, let's take care of it.
Tang Tang took off his extra spring coat and put it outside the big ball, "Is it convenient to change the clothes? Don't catch a cold."
The girl paused, and after a while, she still reached out to take the coat.
She didn't put it on, she just held it in her hand. Tang Tang did everything he could, and didn't say anything else.
When it was getting dark, the girl's clothes were almost dry, she stood up suddenly, and approached Tang Tang again.
"Come with me."
"Huh? Where are you going?" Tang Tang was taken aback by her again.
"It's dangerous at night, I need to find a place to hide." The girl explained this time, probably because she was afraid that Tang Tang would not agree to go with her.
But even so, Tang Tang can't easily agree? Her biggest golden finger now is this river, if she leaves the river and encounters zombies, then she will be miserable.
What's more, this girl is weird, even if she didn't use her powers, it doesn't mean it's credible, right? She doesn't want to go.
Tang Tang shook his head, "I won't go unless you tell me all the questions I have doubts about."
Tang Tang knew that the girl would not explain to her, so she said so on purpose. But unexpectedly, the girl nodded in agreement this time.
"Okay, what do you want to know?"
Tang Tang: ...
Looking at the girl's posture, it seems that she will not be reconciled if she is not taken away today. Tang Tang pursed her lips. She does have a lot of doubts. Since there is no chance to run away now, it is better to listen to what the girl has to say.
"What about the six people who were with you before?"
The first question, Tang Tang is very concerned about it. She heard the man talking before, and she thought that the seven of them were a fixed team. As a result, the girls spent the whole afternoon with her, and there was no one who came to look for them? And the girl can't see that she won't go back for too long, because she is afraid that they will worry.
The girl frowned, as if she didn't like the topic, but she answered anyway.
She shook her head: "They are not with me."
"Ah?" Although Tang Tang felt strange, she really didn't expect her to say that, "But that night, didn't that man say that the seven of you have always been in trouble together?"
"Fake, they lied to you." The girl said.
Tang Tang was startled, and immediately asked: "How did you lie to me, why did they lie to me?"
The girl paused for a long time this time, but Tang Tang felt that this question was very important, so every second she waited, she felt very anxious.
After about five minutes, the girl spoke again.
The more Tang Tang listened, the more frightened she became, and finally her hands and feet began to feel cold.
What the girl meant, if she understood correctly, those six people were actually a team. And they are not from this place, but came here after the end of the world. And the abilities of the six people are not as common as they said, they are actually hiding their strength.
In fact, they had already discovered that zombies can't swim, so every time they escaped, they went to the river, and when they reached the river, they immediately jumped in. This not only easily killed the zombies, but also took the opportunity to kill the zombies Take them all out.
And the night before yesterday, that is, the night when Tang Tang met, was actually the time when the six people implemented the plan again.
It was just an accident that they found the glowing Tang Tang by the river, which surprised them, and immediately started to act, calling for her desperately for help. In fact, they had 100% confidence in their own safety .
And the reason why they called Tang Tang for help, and then tried every means to keep her, in fact, just like what they showed on the surface, they wanted to rely on her.
This is also the usual trick of the six people for so long, pretending to be weak to win the sympathy of other supernatural beings, and then let other supernatural beings contribute in various ways, and when the value of those supernatural beings is fully utilized, they turn around and kick They don't care about the lives of those people.
"How do you know this?" Tang Tang asked quickly.
"I've noticed them a long time ago. I've been observing them in secret recently. I didn't intend to expose them last night, but I found that they had their minds on you, so I ran over." The girl talked more.
"So you pretend you can't swim to lower their defenses?" Tang Tang guessed.
The girl nodded, "You're not the first person to be targeted by them. Those who were targeted by them a few times before ended up dying in piles of zombies."
Tang Tang took a deep breath, but still had doubts: "But since they have a way to obtain the crystal nucleus, why should they rely on others?"
"Because there is not enough food here, if they want to rob them, they have to show their strength. Then everyone will start to be wary and even attack them first."
Tang Tang nodded.
"I know you don't believe it," the girl said, "but I advise you not to cross this wall. Although I haven't gone out, many people from outside have come in, and their abilities are quite powerful. Even so, I still couldn’t survive outside and chose to come here. One can imagine how dangerous it is outside.”
Tang Tang pursed her lips, knowing that she was right.
"Is your ability defensive? Then you should be more cautious. If you don't have an attack ability here, you won't be able to stabilize it."
Tang Tang was aroused by her sophisticated analysis, "Then what is your ability?"
"penetrate."
"Penetration?" Tang Tang.
"that's all… "
The girl raised her hand and stuck it on Tang Tang's big ball, and then Tang Tang found that the indestructible big ball slowly put the girl's hand in...
! ! !
Fuck!
This penetration?
Tang Tang was so stiff that she couldn't move at all, and her eyes couldn't even leave the girl's hand. She stared closely, worried that the girl would launch a fatal attack on her in the next second.
Why? Is her big ball too weak, or is the girl too strong
However, the girl didn't do anything, and after demonstrating it to her, she silently withdrew her hand.
"You see, without attacking abilities, you are in a very dangerous situation." The girl concluded.
Tang Tang nodded unconsciously, raised his hand and wiped it, and his forehead was full of sweat.
"Let's go, there will probably be a lot of activities at night, don't be discovered." The girl looked at Tang Tang.
What else can Tang Tang say
She was not as strong as others and had nothing to struggle with, she followed suit and stood up, the meaning was obvious, let's go together this time.
"What activities will there be at night?" The two walked out for a distance, Tang Tang thought of her words and asked.
"Killing for more."
The girl paused every word, and what she said was very light in the wind, but Tang Tang trembled unconsciously.
"... Cough, I can't be the one who was killed tonight?" She looked at the girl's back, really worried about her own safety!
"No, your defense is very strong. Except for me, no one here can hurt you."
"Then you..." Tang Tang asked tentatively.
I'm worried about you! Who do you think I'm worried about! ah? ah?
The girl paused, then turned to look at her, "Are the crystal nuclei that the twin brother gave you before still there? If you don't want me to be a threat to you, eat all those crystal nuclei, so that they are mine. Penetration, you can't easily break through your defense."
After speaking, he turned around again.
"Is there an event here at night? I didn't seem to encounter anything last night..." Tang Tang was moved by her words, and silently took out a crystal nucleus.
The gray stone-like thing, after a few glances, tried to put it in his mouth. Unexpectedly, the thing that was obviously hard in the hand softened when it was put into the mouth.
"No, but there must be something going on tonight."
"Huh? Why?" Tang Tang had already eaten a crystal nucleus, and suddenly felt comfortable all over his body. She was pleasantly surprised that it worked out well.
"Because the seeds are ripe tonight."
"ah?"
The girl then explained to her again.
Only then did Tang Tang know that the people here actually used soil power and water power to grow vegetables, and tonight, according to the previous rules, is a mature day.
But what does that have to do with her? As long as she doesn't rob, isn't it safe
"Because vegetable growers don't sit quietly in one place, they run around and climb over stone walls to temporarily hide outside. This is their long-standing fighting method."
Tang Tang suddenly realized, "So if I am by the stone wall, I will die tonight?"
"right."
call-
difficult.
It's hard for Tang Tang to live.
"What about you? Will you grab it?" Tang Tang asked the girl.
She thought that since the girl had taken her away, she would definitely go to another place with her, but unexpectedly, the girl nodded, "Yes."
"So I have to hide you first," the girl came to a dangerous building, pointing to the dark inside, "you hide inside."
"Here?" Tang Tang looked at the building that kept falling down, it was a bit dangerous.
"It's relatively close to the stone wall. You can take a look tonight, and you'll be able to figure out what's going on here soon."
