Doom Roar

535 Rescue from Ruins

After leaving Tang Baiqiang's apartment, Xu Mo stopped a taxi on the side of the road and returned to the hotel.

When driving near a viaduct, the traffic flow gradually slowed down. The taxi driver learned through the car intercom that it turned out that a truck on the viaduct in front turned over and the road ahead was currently in a congested state.

If you follow the traffic flow slowly, you can go, but it may take a long time, so with Xu Mo's consent, the taxi turned around and took another longer road.

The detoured road looks old, but it may be due to less traffic. Except for the cracks caused by natural thermal expansion and contraction, the road damage is not serious, and only a few slight bumps can be felt when sitting in the car.

On both sides of the road are some old red brick low buildings, or dilapidated factory buildings surrounded by walls, but most of the outer walls have big "demolition" written on them, and some of them have even been destroyed by excavators. Pour most of it. [

According to the taxi driver, this area used to be the main factory area of ​​Qiantang City in the 80s and [-]s. Later, with the development of Qiantang City, the government moved these polluting factories, which occupy prime locations in the city, to the suburbs.

However, due to the disagreement on compensation for the demolition and relocation of nearby residents, the demolition work has not been carried out smoothly. After more than half a year of stalemate, only so much demolition has been carried out.

Later, because of the outbreak of doomsday illusions all over the country, I heard that the developer of this land died unexpectedly in the explosion area of ​​doomsday illusions. His partners and family members fought openly and secretly for the ownership of the company, so the development of this land was temporarily put on hold.

Listening to the taxi driver chattering in the front row, Xu Mo responded perfunctorily, but never took his eyes off the ruined walls outside.

The desolate and dilapidated scenery outside the car reminded him of Shangshan City after the doomsday illusion broke out. Only then did he realize that he had only lived a stable life in the capital and Qiantang for a month, and he had almost forgotten that he had struggled in the doomsday illusion. those days.

Even if he has personally experienced that kind of cruelty, let alone the ordinary people in the safe zone, no wonder no matter whether in the capital or in Qiantang, people can't see the sense of urgency on their faces, as if the TV The news on the newspaper network is someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with them except sympathy.

Perhaps this is the mentality of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages in the human subconscious, and sometimes even deceiving one's ears for it...

"Huh? Is that...?"

Xu Mo suddenly saw something familiar on the ground. Although it was only a flash, the awakened person's excellent dynamic vision allowed him to see clearly that it was a white Converse shoe.

"Master driver, please stop the car!"

The taxi driver didn't know, so he subconsciously took a few more glances at Xu Mo from the rearview mirror, as if he was a gangster who robbed the taxi. After all, the desolation here is so dark and windy, it's too easy for people to have similar associations. .

Nai Xumo had no choice but to pay one hundred yuan as a deposit for the fare, probably because he saw the thick stack of Huaxia coins in Xu Mo's wallet, which was no less than six or seven thousand, and felt that the robbers did not need to take so much money to go out. The driver then safely parked the car on the side of the road.

Xu Mo got out of the car and ran back tens of meters along the road, leaned over to pick up the white Converse shoe on the ground, and was taken aback.

There is nothing special about the shoes themselves, but Xu Mo recognized that the patterns on them were drawn by Ju Huaxing himself with acrylic paints. Back then, he had laughed at Ju Huaxing's distorted painter with a runaway comic style.

Didn't Ju Huaxing send Lin Yijing home?But why did his shoes appear here where the direction is completely wrong?

Xu Mo suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Xu Mo took out his mobile phone and called Lin Yijing's grandmother's house. As expected, Lin Yijing and Ju Huaxing did not arrive home.

Then he called the mobile phones of Lin Yijing and Ju Huaxing respectively, but their mobile phones were turned off.

problem occurs. [

After letting the waiting taxi leave first, Xu Mo took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Under normal circumstances, there are only two possibilities for Ju Huaxing to leave his shoes here. One is that Ju Huaxing and Lin Yijing are in danger here and fell during the struggle; the other is that the two are in danger elsewhere. , dropped when transported here.

/>

Considering that this place is not on the same road as Lin Yijing's grandmother's house, the first possibility was immediately ruled out by Xu Mo.

Xu Mo carefully inspected the ground where the shoe fell, and found a lot of messy shoe prints, the traces were very clear, obviously they were left not long ago.

Since they would leave footprints, it means that these people abandoned their cars and walked here, and they probably wouldn't go too far with two big living people, maybe they were in an abandoned building nearby.

Thinking of this, the dark [Ice Abyss Demon Armor] instantly covered his whole body, Xu Mo jumped into the ruins like a ghost in the night, turned on [Devil Sensing] to the maximum limit perception range, and quickly walked around where he found the shoes. The dots sprinted and searched around in a radial pattern.

The scope of this area is not large, and it didn't take long for Xu Mo's [Demon Sensing] to detect an unusual location.

About 50 meters away from his ten o'clock direction, six or seven ordinary people's life reactions gathered there.

Although this area is still inhabited sporadically, there are no more than three or four people in each household, and it is the time to go to bed late at the moment. The life reactions in these households are usually separated by a certain distance, and it seems that six or seven people gather together like this. Extremely abnormal.

Of course, it does not rule out the kind of migrant workers who rent a room together to save money.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, or to scare the hostages, Xu Mo did not even jump normally for the next tens of meters, and teleported directly to the demolished building twice in a row with only one floor left. in front of the red brick building.

As soon as he stood still, Xu Mo heard strange crackling noises from the glass-less room, and a painful and weak humming sound could be heard faintly, as if his mouth was blocked after his nose was blocked. moan.

Is it...

Xu Mo's eyes were red at that time, and he smashed into the room like a human rhinoceros.

The six men in the room were startled by the sudden loud noise. Except for one man who was busy pulling up his trousers, the other five immediately grabbed their shovels, daggers and other weapons and rushed towards Xu Mo.

When Xu Mo saw this, he knew that he had found the right place, so he didn't hold back any more, and punched the chests of the five rushing people, causing bloody holes the size of washbasins.

The man who was pulling up his pants didn't expect that his accomplice didn't even block Xu Mo for three seconds, and was immediately killed in a flash. He didn't even care about lifting his pants, and rushed directly to the naked body in front of him. He tried to catch the hostages to protect himself, but was pierced by Xu Mo's short ice crystal blade, and he couldn't die anymore.

"Jing...Ju Huaxing?"

Xu Mo anxiously helped up the naked figure on the ground, tore off the rope from the opponent's hand, pulled the rag from his mouth, and was surprised to find that the person in front of him was not Lin Yijing, but Ju Huaxing!

There are a lot of things to do today, I wanted to ask for leave, but after I came back, I dragged my tired body and typed more than 2000 words. Of course, there will be no second update, so everyone should go to bed early after reading it.

As for Ju Huaxing becoming Chrysanthemum Xing... Thank you for my kindness, at least the character is still alive, isn't it?

It is customary to ask for a red ticket. [
