Damn, what the hell is this

Why do zombies appear

Originally, everyone fled outside because there were fewer posters of women outside the station. Now that the threat from the posters has temporarily subsided, He Lou simply led everyone into the station again.

Is this the only way to escape

The influence of the blood mist seemed to still be there. He Lou's thoughts were a little confused. Sisters Li Fangwan and Li Fangzhi were the same. They only wanted to escape and avoid being hunted by the zombies.

In fact, they all knew that there was another way.

Just tear off a poster of a woman and stick it on the zombie.

But no one took action.

This proposal is as childish and ridiculous as a group of mice discussing how to avoid a cat, and the final answer is to tie a bell around the cat's neck.

Who will do it? Who is willing to sacrifice themselves for others

Everyone knows that if you rashly touch such strange things, you will definitely die. Even if they return to their original world, the curse from the evil spirit may pass through the barrier between the two worlds and kill you inadvertently.

"Everyone... look for clues again, and be careful not to touch the posters."

"Anything could be a clue. Don't hesitate. If you still only want to rely on others at this time..." He Lou took a breath, dodged the zombie that was rushing towards him, and kicked it hard from behind. The latter's stiff arm went straight into the wooden table in front of the ticket counter, as if there was no obstruction.

The hard wooden table was as soft as tofu before its nails.

It is not difficult to imagine that if it were a human body...

"At this moment, if you still want to be lazy and rely on others, then just wait for death!" He Lou growled.

Sister Li Fangwan also said, "Let's see if we can find some information somewhere."

Lu Yanli was also looking around.

Clues… What exactly are the clues? Where are they

He put on a mask and a hat, and his heavy breathing was blocked by a layer of cloth. Perhaps for this reason, the zombies didn't chase him much.

The yellow-haired young man suggested, "Aren't zombies afraid of fire? And sticky rice, sunlight, and so on." He looked up at the sky. Although the sunlight was not glaring, it was indeed daytime here. He changed the topic and asked loudly, "Does anyone have a lighter?"

"How can a little fire from a lighter be enough? Use something to burn it!" another person answered him.

The yellow-haired young man was worried: "Where can I burn anything here? There is no firewood, and there are posters everywhere. Can I burn this thing?"

"The movie also says you can hold your breath, can you try it?"

"Brother Lou, you try it!"

Hearing this, He Lou really did as they said and held his breath, but the zombies still chased him. He quickly took a deep breath and gasped for air and replied, "It doesn't work!"

The others had no choice but to continue to help find clues. They now agreed that every five minutes, another person would attract the zombies' attention so that they could find clues.

Lu Yanli wanted to take over the heavy responsibility, but He Lou asked another person to take his place.

Under the current circumstances, no one can get into trouble without Lu Yanli. If they can't reach Lu Yanli's residence smoothly... then everyone will die! No one can escape!

He Lou was replaced by Li Fangzhi, who was running with him, dodging left and right. Long-term training made her physical strength not inferior to that of a strong man, and she was even more flexible than He Lou.

Li Fangwan helped her on the side, looking around, and then her gaze fixed.

She noticed the poster on the window of the ticket office.

She had noticed before that the poster was posted neatly and squarely, and unlike other posters, it didn’t have any fancy backgrounds. At first glance, she thought there was really someone sitting there…

It's like, there's actually someone sitting there...

Li Fangwan looked into those eyes, and suddenly, she felt cold all over.

What is this? ! !

"Sister! Get out of the way!!!"

Li Fangzhi's screams were heard in the distance.

The next second, she was pulled aside by a great force - Lu Yanli pulled her away. He found an iron rod from somewhere, and when the zombie pounced on her, he hooked its claws and pulled it down with force, causing the latter to fall to the ground.

Walls and tabletops can be pierced, but what about the floor

Its arms dug straight into the ground, and its entire shrunken and stiff body pressed against the ground, making it difficult to stand up for a while.

Li Fangzhi looked at Lu Yanli gratefully, ran over and pulled Li Fangwan away.

“Get out of the way!!”

A bucket of gasoline was poured on the zombie that was still struggling and jumping.

"Hurry!!! Lighter!!"

He lit a small lighter and threw it over.

The next second, flames shot up into the sky and burned fiercely, and the zombies immediately let out violent roars.

The sound was very strange, sharp and hoarse, as if it was made by the friction between two pieces of rusty iron.

A young man named Feng Chuchu in the crowd was relieved: "Fortunately, fortunately, we found gasoline. Although the gasoline in the station has been stored for a long time, it is still usable."

The yellow-haired young man breathed a sigh of relief: "Well done!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at each other.

The flames burned, crackling, and emitted waves of extremely disgusting stench of rotting and burning protein. The zombie covered in flames continued to struggle and roar, but still could not break free of the restraints. Gradually, the strength of its struggle faded, and waves of extremely foul-smelling blood mist began to emanate from its body.

It was like a balloon was leaking air, and wisps of blood mist were floating around.

"Is it almost dead?" Huang Wei walked over to Li Fangwan and her sister, turned around and comforted them, "What happened to you just now? Why did you suddenly stop moving?"

Li Fangyuan had a pale face and didn't say anything. Instead, Li Fangzhi glared at him and said, "What does this have to do with you? Get lost!"

"I'm just caring about the beautiful girl." The yellow-haired young man was not angry. He hummed a little tune and moved away.

The next second he couldn't hum the song anymore.

After the stench gradually dissipated, the stiff corpse on the ground trembled and suddenly jumped up flexibly. The man ran while screaming: "What are you doing? Why are you killing me?"

"Save me! Save the fire! Save my life!!"

“Save me!!”

His voice - surprisingly, it was the voice of the tall and thin man before he turned into a zombie. The high temperature made his whole body sting. After stumbling out of the small area where the gasoline pool was, he rolled on the ground as hard as he could, calling for help with a voice that was hoarse from being burned by the fire.

"Help me..."

What made him despair was that the big guys had all gone far away and no one came to save him. Seeing him trying to roll over, the yellow-haired young man snatched the iron rod from Lu Yanli's hand and stabbed the other person away.

His palms were still sweating, and he subconsciously turned his head and said, "Brother Lou, he he he is soft."

The touch from the other end of the iron rod was different from the cold and hard metal feeling of the zombie before.

He really was... human again.

Should I save him

Everyone subconsciously avoided this question.

"I've already seen him turn into a zombie, so why can he turn back into a human now? He must still have some curse on him."

"Yes, that's it. He has turned into a zombie. Who knows if it's something that tricked us?"

"Besides, even if we want to save him now, it's too late. There's no fire extinguisher here. How can we save him?"

They found a reason on their own and watched the whole process of the zombies being burned while paying attention to their surroundings.

This experience may be useful in the future.

Lu Yanli said: "Otherwise..."

Another person stopped him: "What else? Are you going to save him? Who knows if it is a human or a zombie now?"

So Lu Yanli had to shrink back, he turned his head and covered his nose. The others thought he had never seen it before, so they didn't dare to look and didn't care.

Under the brim of the hat, a hint of mockery flashed across his eyes.

"Save... me..."

The struggling human figure screamed continuously, but eventually he had no strength to struggle anymore and gradually shrank into a dark, unidentified object. Grease oozed out and dripped down, splashing into the flames.

The air was filled with the smell of burning barbecue.

Won't you save me

Why don't you save me?!

Why?!!

If we have to die, let’s die together!!

The tall and thin man tried hard to recall the scene he had seen before. His eyeballs had been burned and he could not see anything. He used up his last bit of strength, stood up suddenly and rushed to the nearest electric pole, hugging the pole with his body covered in flames.

Soon, he became motionless, but even so, his body was still clasped tightly to the electric pole with flames on it.

No one knew that the last expression of this corpse before death was a smile.

No one else cares whether he dies or not.

Their only concern was that there were two flyers of that woman posted on the telephone pole.

"You're fucking crazy! Why would you drag us into your own death?!"

They are really going crazy.

The leaflet was smeared with an unknown black substance, and the edges were burned by fire, starting to turn yellow and curl inwards...

Not just one, but almost all of the leaflets began to show signs of curling before the fire.

Finished...

This was the voice of almost everyone present.

“Run!!”

The crowd fled in all directions.

Running was useless. The woman's expression became more and more distorted and ferocious, and she stared at everyone with a cold expression. The next moment, she opened her mouth, and a long, thin, bright red tongue stretched out from two rows of thin, white, and sharp teeth. Although it looked soft, it was extremely fast. In an instant, it pierced through the chest of the young man who had thrown the lighter before, and then pulled it back!

The young man didn't even have time to scream before he was pulled into the woman's open mouth.

This time there was not even a chewing sound, and the person disappeared.

What's worse, the blood mist became extremely thick in an instant.

Lu Yanli saw through the thick layer of blood mist that the woman's expression did not show that she was happy about eating one person. On the contrary, her cold and gloomy eyes were wandering over the other people, as if she was wondering which one to eat next.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the woman now does not seem to need to devour others through the blood mist, and she prefers to taste it with her tongue. For this reason, Lu Yanli just felt suffocated in the mist. He tried hard to dispel the sticky and bloody mist and carefully look for what he wanted.

This... doesn't seem to be very qualified.

But let's try it first.

Lu Yanli took a step forward, walked in a certain direction, and picked up something on the ground.

He did not run away like the others, but walked towards the inside of the station. He dragged a black object in his hand and walked through the thick blood mist and went straight to the ticket window.

Behind him, someone raised a knife...

Lu Yanli suddenly turned around.

The blood mist seemed to have no effect on him at all. As the distance between them was closer, Lu Yanli easily spotted who it was.

"What do you want to do?!" he screamed in horror.

If that person could see his expression through the blood mist, or at least see his eyes hidden under the hat, he would not choose to offend him.

The next second, in the blood mist, the noise returned to silence.

"Crunch, crunch..." chewing sounds were heard.

On the other side, the blood mist became thicker.

Everyone ran away, with only the scarlet color that was so thick that it could not be dissolved in their eyes. They could not see the surrounding scenery clearly, and their noses were also filled with the strong smell of blood, as if in an instant, this place had turned into a bloody hell on earth.

A figure was circling in the blood mist, and behind the figure, a long, slippery tongue slowly emerged.

The tongue slowly rose up, about to wrap around the figure's neck. The next moment, it paused, as if it had made a difficult decision, and gradually disappeared from the spot.

The blood mist came and dissipated quickly. Not long after, the main space returned to its original scene, as if the blood-red color in front of his eyes just now was all an illusion.

"What's going on? Are we saved?"

The yellow-haired young man was shocked and confused. He had just run a very far distance, but when he opened his eyes, he found himself back where he was, still standing at the entrance of the station. Not far in front of him was an electric pole with a black unknown substance on it, still emitting a burnt smell.

All the women posters regained their composure and looked gentle.

Lu Yanli walked out of the station. He seemed a little weak. When he saw the yellow-haired young man, he greeted him and asked him sadly, "Are you all okay now? How many of you are still here?"

The yellow-haired young man sighed: "I don't know, wait a minute. They will be here soon."

I don’t know who broke the situation and how he found a way to survive.

Is it Brother Lou? Or the Li sisters

He didn't take the nice and cowardly young man in front of him into account at all.

"Strange, where is that guy's...body?" The yellow-haired young man hesitated and did not say the word "corpse". He raised his chin, indicating that the charred body under the telephone pole had disappeared.

Lu Yanli was also surprised and shook his head: "I don't know, I didn't see it when I came here just now. Could it be..." He hinted at the poster on the telephone pole.

"I didn't expect that they would bring barbecue." Huangmao muttered.
