"The story is just an ordinary story, but the identity it tells is not necessarily the same." Aliu covered his eyes and stood near the other practitioners, "Not only a ghost, but also not weak, not the person you should be looking for."
A Liu's ghost eyes shocked the barefooted female ghost, a family of three and two sick ghosts, but did not repel the businessman and Su Zimo's party who shouted "raise the coffin to make a fortune". This should be his judgment on Su Zimo. basis of strength.
And Su Zimo also confirmed once again that the task given to the practitioners by the nightmare world this time is to find "living humans" from so many people on this road.
But the bad situation is that now, it seems that only Su Zimo and his party are following the trainers all the way.
It seems very abrupt.
[That's too late! That's too late! ]
Su Zimo looked at the trainer. When the trainee looked at him, a boy who looked like a high school student with a schoolbag was panting and running forward desperately. Then he was stopped by Lao Yan when he passed Su Zimo and the others. down.
"Little classmate, do you have anything to worry about?" Since Lao Yan's mission is to find a living person, this fiery boy looks like the person they need to find.
[I'm going to be late for school! ] After the boy was stopped, his expression looked even more anxious. [The alarm clock didn't go off for some reason, but it was already eight o'clock when he woke up. Our head teacher was very fierce. This is terrible! ]
"Look at the sky now!" Lao Yan held the boy's shoulder, "Is it still time for school?"
[what? ] The boy looked at the sky blankly, [Why is it so late? ]
"Is your home far from the school?" Su Zimo also asked curiously, attracting the attention of the practitioners, but he didn't care too much.
[Far away! ] The boy was crying and grimacing, [It takes seven or eight stops by car! ]
"Then why are you running? You should go by car." Su Zimo said lightly.
[what! Yeah, why don't I take the car? Why don't I take the car? Why don't I take the car...why not take the car? ] Su Zimo's words were like pressing a bad switch, the boy's expression immediately became dazed, and he even forgot that he had to hurry up to study or go home after dark, so he bypassed Lao Yan's obstruction. , pacing in the vicinity, repeating over and over again.
Su Zimo would ask such a question, but it was actually because of his doubts.
Before that, all the nightmare worlds he had seen were based on reality. Except for the illusions created by Zhang Xiaoqing, almost all of them were real environments.
But the road they are on now has only four lanes for vehicles, no non-motorized vehicle lanes, or even sidewalks. Fifty or sixty people walking on the four lanes only for vehicles, for some reason gave Su Zimo a strong sense of disobedience.
I always feel like... it shouldn't be like this.
"Excuse me, won't you hurt us?" The girl in the trainee team who called herself An An asked cautiously, standing a little far away from Su Zimo.
"People don't offend me, I don't offend others." Su Zimo responded with a smile, and specially emphasized the two words "human", which seemed to add some extra meaning to these eight characters.
"Then can you tell me, who are the human beings on this road?" Lao Yan suddenly asked directly to the subject.
But this time, Su Zimo smiled without saying a word.
Of course he couldn't say things he didn't know.
"Mr. Yan, it's a bit too delusional to want to know this kind of thing from Li Gui's mouth, right?" Ah Liu seems to have recovered a little now, but the thin red blood has spread to his forehead, the situation It's not good by any means.
The so-called backlash and recovery may be the next time.
"This gentleman." Su Zimo's eyes shifted, and he glanced at A Liu, "Don't use that eye anymore."
"..." Aliu didn't speak, just looked at Su Zimo through his sunglasses.
"It will be eaten by the eyes...".
Su Zimo's last three words just compared his mouth shape, and then pressed the black umbrella again, covering most of his face, and walked to the side of the road with Peng Peng and Zhang Xiaoqing. Perhaps it was because he had been complying with the laws and regulations for a long time, and walking on the main road always gave Su Zimo an uneasy feeling.
"Aliu, what's wrong?" Lao Yan and the others didn't see Aliu using ghost eyes, so they didn't know why Su Zimo said that.
"It's okay, it's just a ghost talk." Aliu also glanced at Su Zimo, then turned around and continued to walk forward like the other practitioners.
Because they stopped for a while just now, many figures on the road began to move forward at a faster speed, and even the barefoot female ghost who was stunned by the Aliu ghost before has already walked up to them. Go ahead, and the speed seems to be quite fast.
So the practitioners also started to speed up, and Su Zimo who followed them also speeded up quietly, but he felt that Peng Peng, who was following him, seemed a little sleepy, and his head was bit by bit, as if he was about to take a nap.
But he still held Su Zimo's hand and walked forward.
The group walked for a long time. From time to time, they would look at the countdown on the right arm, and then muttered something like "Why is it still on the road after more than an hour?" My body started to feel a little tired.
"Old Yan, I can't do it anymore, I have to take a rest." The practitioner who claimed to be Sister Ling stopped and sat down beside a tree by the roadside.
There is an open space and a few benches under the Metasequoia in this place, which looks like it is specially provided for passers-by to rest.
They didn't know how long they had walked, but they finally arrived at the side of those figures who were rushing on their way.
The road in front of me still can't see the edge or the end, and the reason why Sister Ling slowed down is because the surrounding troops also slowed down for no apparent reason.
Su Zimo also stopped and occupied a bench not far from the practitioners. Peng Peng fell directly on Su Zimo's lap and fell asleep. Zhang Xiaoqing sat on the other side of Su Zimo, holding Holding a book that I didn't know where to get it, I looked down quietly.
The strip called "The Eyes of the Blind" does not seem to hinder Zhang Xiaoqing's sight.
[Excuse me, have you seen some tourists? ]
At this time, a woman holding a small flag suddenly walked up to Sister Ling and the others, and asked in a panic: [Have you seen any tourists from our travel agency? ]
The woman did look like a tour guide. Whether it was the flag or the clothes on her body, it was reminiscent of a tour guide, but there was no travel agency's name or identity card, as if it was blocked by the nightmare world.
[I was so dizzy just now, and when I came back to my senses, I found that all the tourists from our travel agency were gone. ] The young Girl Guide looked very anxious.
"Don't worry." It is rare to find someone who takes the initiative to speak forward. Regardless of whether the other party is human or not, Lao Yan hopes to learn more useful information from the other party's mouth, "You say you are a tour guide, then you should be right Familiar here, right? Where exactly is this road? Where does it lead? Is this also a tourist attraction?"
The tour guide who came to ask for help was asked a bunch of questions by Lao Yan before he got the answer to the question, so it was inevitable that he was stunned before he said—
[I, I don't know! We haven't reached our destination yet, we are in the car! ]
"What?" Lao Yan was also completely stunned, and quickly asked, "You said you were in the car, so what about the car? Why are you walking on this road alone? Where's your tour bus?"
[tourist? ] The girl guide repeated these three words blankly, and then, like the student who was late, turned away a little lost, murmuring, [Yes, where is our tour bus? What about our car? Where should we be now? ]
"These people are more like lunatics than Li Gui." Aliu stood aside and wrinkled, "Maybe the lunatic here is a living person, you can just take any one of you and walk the road. Of course, you can also Take a few more people to leave, after all, according to the requirements of the mission, the more living people accompany us to complete this journey, the more nightmare points we will get, no matter how you think about it, it is a good place for scoring points."
After hearing Ah Liu say this, Su Zimo's mission to this nightmare world is very clear. They not only need to find a few living people from these indistinguishable figures, but also need to take them along this seemingly endless road.
And the more living people who travel with them, the more Nightmare Points they end up getting.
But when he saw the tour guide, Su Zimo couldn't help but think of the family of three who had left an impression on him before. They wore parent-child clothes that they would not wear on weekdays, and they each carried a bag. It seemed true Some are like tour groups.
[Don't go any further! Look no further! ]
The weird tour guide had just left when a figure suddenly rushed towards them on the road ahead, shouting while rushing back: "You can't go ahead, don't go any further!" ]
When the figure approached, Lao Yan and the others did not dare to go forward to talk, because there was a thick layer of gray smoke around the figure, except that people could vaguely see the figure in the smoke, It looks more like a ghost than a ghost.
Moreover, no matter how the figure blocked the pedestrians walking forward, none of those people paid him any attention, and some even passed through the thick smoke, as if they could not hear or see anything.
It was as if only Su Zimo and those who had experienced it could see it.
Because Lao Yan and the others hesitated a few times and still did not walk past, so the cloud of smoke continued to walk back, shouting for pedestrians to stop approaching as they walked. Although no "person" responded to him, he still walked all the way. shouted all the way.
"I always feel that this nightmare world is not as simple as the mission says." Lao Yan watched the cloud of smoke leave and muttered to himself.
As soon as he turned his head, Lao Yan saw another despairing scene.
When they were exhausted and hungry, the three Specters who had been following them for some unknown reason had already sat on the bench in the small open space next to them.
The Specter who had spoken to them actually took out a water bottle that looked like a full 1,000ml, and inside it was a milky white drink that looked delicious.
Moreover, there was a very delicate-looking food box on Li Gui's lap. After opening it, the milky and floral fragrance of the dim sum was faintly audible. It belongs to the type that feels very appetizing just by looking at the color.
"Old Yan, are you hungry? I have specially brought compressed biscuits and mineral water here." At this time, the well-prepared sister Ling was a little more than the dry food, "but the water is a bit heavy, so I bring Not much, we still have to drink together."
"It's okay, I also brought water and dry food." Lao Yan touched his dry lips, thinking of the compressed biscuits in his backpack, his throat felt a little blocked.
Why do ghosts eat better than them
"Can I eat together?"
A Liu, who was originally standing with the practitioners, ran to Su Zimo and the others at some point, the half of his face that was not covered by the sunglasses was full of smiles, and said in a very close tone: "We all let you follow along. It’s been all the way, so it shouldn’t be too much to order some snacks, right?”
"..." Su Zimo was silent for a moment, and felt that it was a bit of a loss that he didn't gain half of anything after just following them for more than an hour.
After thinking for a while, Su Zimo's mouth twitched into a smile again, and also said kindly, "Why don't we make a deal?"
