"Then what should we do next? I still don't know what's going on in the West District?" I turned around and asked Nie Zun.
Nie Zun was looking ahead, his eyes seemed to drift far away.
"Do you feel that the surroundings are very different?" Nie Zun suddenly said lightly.
I looked around, it was the border forest in the west district, except for the fight just now, I didn't see anything different.
Nie Zun actually sighed slightly: "Go on and see."
He spoke as if we had not returned to the West District where we had lived for a long time, but came to a strange place. I secretly complained that the atmosphere was so tense, and I met two strange people just now, alas.
After about an hour or so, our group finally passed through the border forest in the west district.
Seeing that I passed through the row of trees in front of me, I was back on the land of the West District. Although I was a little worried about seeing the fearful or ostracizing eyes of the residents of the West District, it was still difficult to think of going back to a place I was familiar with. Cover up your excitement.
But this complex state of mind mixed with various emotions was soon completely subverted by the scene I saw.
Although the border forest in the west district is not as dense as the bushes in the south district, it is still planted one by one by the people in our district. When I just walked through this forest, I didn't smell the slightest bit of rotten smell. breath.
But why, why did I see such a decaying scene when I walked through the border forest, which was still full of vitality
When we finally crossed the boundary forest, we all froze in place.
Whether it's me, who is always happy, or Jipa, who is always calm and calm, or Nie Zun, who doesn't care much about everything, at this moment, he can only act in this indescribable, dull, fearful, puzzled, helpless way. Standing here with an expression of waiting.
Because after passing through the border forest, what caught our eyes was not the grocery store that should exist.
What catches our eyes is a scene that should not exist and will never appear.
"This.... Am I right?" Mu Li almost roared out.
Tao Lie's huge and muscular body even trembled slightly: "Li, Miss Li Shen, the people we sent to investigate didn't pass through the border forest, so they don't know where... here... . What exactly is going on?"
I could feel my legs shaking, not fear, but worry, deep worry.
This kind of worry is not that others tell you that the end of the world is coming, but that you have seen the end of the world with your own eyes.
I couldn't divert my gaze, I let my eyes stay motionless on the ruins in front of me at this moment.
That's right, it's above the ruins.
What is in front of us today is not the West End of the past.
But a ruin.
It's like a castle that has collapsed for tens of thousands of years. After passing through the forest at the border of the district, the place where the grocery building should have appeared is not the grocery building.
No, maybe, but it doesn't look like it now.
In front of our eyes, where the grocery building originally belonged, is now a completely collapsed building.
It's just that on the faint remaining tiles and debris of this building, there is an endless smell of decay, brown and yellow stones, black rubble, and dust floating all over the sky.
At first glance, there was a cloud of gray smoke and dust, and at first glance, there was no one there.
I tried to take a step forward, but as soon as my right foot stretched out, it was as if a dry hand suddenly sprang out from the ground and grabbed my leg. I felt a painful trembling from my whole leg.
I can't stand still, I really want to kneel down like this!
But Nie Zun reached out and grabbed me.
"Nie...Nie Zun, what's going on? Where's the west...West area?" I felt an inexplicable soreness in my eyes, and instead I grabbed Nie Zun and held my hand, staring into his eyes, asked in a panic.
"Calm down, let's take a walk ahead." Although Nie Zun's voice was still indifferent, I saw the flash of unbearable flash in his eyes.
I took a deep breath and told myself to calm down.
So our group, from the slow at the beginning to the acceleration, has been moving forward non-stop.
As we move, we don't see anything new.
What kept coming into view from either side of us was nothing but ruins, and nothing but ruins.
It was as if a thousand-year-old abandoned castle submerged in the vast desert had suddenly emerged with a corner, and the collapsed corners of countless buildings were buried in the unique stone ground in the Forbidden Cracked Zone, carrying a breath of death.
We run faster and faster.
Ruins, ruins, still ruins.
I don't know how long I have been running, how long I have been shuttling in this area, but wherever I see, there are still ruins.
There are no complete buildings, no trees, no squares that should be outside of normal buildings, only ruins. Only empty rocky ground.
no one.
"What the hell is going on with this tm?!" I really couldn't stand this heinous scene, I stopped, stood where I was and screamed desperately!
"Is this still the West End? Are we under an illusion?" Even Jepa, who has always been calm, couldn't help but looked around and asked.
"Why is there no one?" Tao Lie and Mu Li also asked in unison.
But, you ask me, who should I ask
Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, but still didn't know how to explain the scene in front of them.
The entire West District is now empty and empty.
Except for the border forest at the beginning, it was as usual, as if it had been completely emptied by a huge disaster, leaving only a remnant of uninhabited graves.
My shout did not receive a response, not even an echo, I could only look around at the abandoned land that seemed unreal, but clearly presented in front of me.
Nie Zun was still running forward. Although I felt that my legs were trembling, it seemed that there was nothing else I could do except run, so I could only run along with him.
After running for an unknown amount of time, we finally saw something different from the ruins.
No, not a thing.
is a person.
"Ah——!!!!" I screamed, the high-pitched voice piercing through my throat trembled sharply in this desolate and abandoned place.
In this endless silence, we finally saw a familiar person.
I don't know if we have run too far. According to the original terrain analysis, we may have run to the center of the West District, in front of the school building.
But here is still a piece of collapsed building tile fragments.
The only difference is that in the middle of the ruins, there is a person standing.
This man was an old man, a petrified old man, his feet sunk deep in the stone geography under the ruins, his hands clasped in a prayer pose on his chest, his eyes closed, his face covered in stone. earth.
On the top of his head, there is a layer of heavenly cover missing.
And the petrified one no longer showed blood red, but the black and dark brain inside his exposed head.
This is Lord Fan.
"Grandpa!!!!" I screamed and rushed to him, trying to reach out and touch him.
But I couldn't do it.
The petrified Lord Fan is closing his eyes tightly at this moment, his body is stained with stone and soil, his limbs and organs seem to be half petrified, like a half stone man who has not fully merged with the stone, standing in this messy abandoned place In the middle, there is no sound.
Jepa rushed up immediately, he stopped me, and motioned me not to touch it.
"What's wrong with him? Huh? Jappa!" I almost jumped up and yelled.
"Miss A Shen, don't panic, I'll take a look." Jiepa tried to stabilize my emotions, but I saw that his hand that had already taken out the handkerchief was trembling, obviously, his heart was not calm either. .
But it was my sharp eyes that saw that he was as flustered as I was, and I became quiet instead.
I gave him a trusting look.
Jappa nodded at me, then began to check with his right hand through the handkerchief.
He tried to move Master Fan's hand, but to no avail.
"Is this petrified?" Tao Lie, who was also dumbfounded, asked.
Jiepa nodded heavily: "It's almost there, but if you look closely at the brain exposed on the top of the head, there should still be flesh and blood in the stone man."
I took advantage of Jiepa's research and looked around again. Nie Zun also used the fastest speed to run around here.
"It seems that there is nothing left in the entire western district, except this." Nie Zun finally gave his conclusion, and finally pointed to the old Fan who looked like a dilapidated stone sculpture.
"What do you mean there is nothing? How can there be nothing?" I couldn't believe what I heard.
Nie Zun sighed softly, once again complex worries appeared in his eyes.
"Miss A Shen, this should be Master Fan's body in the Forbidden Cracked Area, but I really have no way of knowing why it stands here in such a semi-petrified state, and I have never seen such a situation before, and this The flesh and blood inside the stone body has also been completely frozen, and I am not sure whether I am alive or not, or whether I still have the power of thought." Jiepa sighed deeply, and finally added: "It has never been done before. I've seen that happen."
"Tao Lie, Muli..." I was about to open my mouth to Tao Lie and Muli, but Tao Lie seemed to have thought of what I wanted to ask, and he even took off his sunglasses, revealing those piercing eyes The eyes seem to be expressing the certainty of his words: "Miss Li Shen, let's not say whether we have seen this situation before, it is even unheard of in the Forbidden Split Zone."
"Yeah, and the people we sent to lurk in our border forest before saw that there are always crowds running around in the border forest on your side, as if someone was instigating an uprising. We just feel that this side is not peaceful. But this, this kind of empty, even deserted situation, never even thought about it!"
My heart is completely cold.
