Humans have Three Souls and Seven Spirits, ghosts have Nine Netherworld Obsessions and Five Aggregates of Fire. But from the time I was born, I was missing an Earth Soul.
From a young age, I ...
Hearing the cold voice coming from the machine, I felt a real sense of unease.
This situation is indeed very strange.
I quickly pulled Yiyi out, until we were out of the entire security checkpoint.
I just realized that this security checkpoint, which looks like a station, actually has no subway or train at all.
Yes, what more could I ask for? This is just a passageway.
There's no subway or train going to be here; we're clearly in the water!
For a moment, the abundance of oxygen I received upon arriving at this place made me almost forget that I was still in the water.
In fact, after gradually getting used to this place, I even felt that it was more comfortable here than on land.
Besides these, there are also the strange creatures that appear from time to time.
After passing through the security checkpoint and walking for less than three minutes, the streetlights in front of me were already casting their twinkling light on the main road.
Holy crap, there's a road here.
However, the roads here are a bit different from those on land; they seem older and don't have many safety lines.
That's true, it's already quite good that they can even lay cement here.
Most of the cars on the road are hovercraft, which are slower.
I also had a lot of internal complaints.
At that moment, Lei Jijian was also transmitting his voice in my mind.
"Master, if this place is similar to the cities outside, then do you have barbecue here too?"
I mentally cursed Lei Jijian. Not only would there be barbecue here, but there was also the possibility of encountering gods, demons, and monsters!
When the time comes, it will all be up to you, Lei Jijian, to take action!
Lei Jijian, on the other hand, kept giving me the impression that he had had enough.
Haha, just getting through security is this weird. I can't imagine whether we'll be able to reach the hotel in this shallow water.
I clutched the letter from the blue-armored man in my hand, feeling slightly apprehensive.
I noticed that the number of people around me has increased slightly from just a few scattered individuals.
However, probably because of the time, they all looked listless.
I began to survey the surrounding landscape, and only when I was certain there were no cameras around did I turn to Yiyi and slowly begin to speak.
"Were those two guys even human? This shallow area is a bit eerie."
My voice carried a hint of vigilance, and I never forgot to observe my surroundings.
Yi Yi frowned slightly; at this moment, her energy was recovering quite quickly.
However, compared to her prime, it's probably far from what it used to be.
"Brother, I'm not too sure about this either, but since we've already reached the shallow water area, there shouldn't be too much danger, right?"
Yiyi's words were so casual that I didn't know what to say.
Indeed, she may have been here before, and that preconceived sense of security should lessen her resistance to this place to some extent.
However, this place did give me a rather eerie feeling.
I then asked Lei Jijian, who was standing next to me, and he felt that something was also amiss here.
He even wondered why the security guard with the gray eyes always seemed a little sticky.
It's like something that came from the deep sea.
I frowned, unsure of what to say.
Let's go! Or should we go to the post office first?
Yiyi and I discussed it and decided that although this was our first time here, we didn't have time to explore the place in detail.
We can't just wander around on the street as soon as we get here!
Besides, it's almost midnight.
Following the direction Lan Jia had initially told me, Yi Yi and I simply walked along the road that was slightly lit.
Since it was nighttime, the amount of light coming through was pitifully small, and the main light source was the colorful lights on the electronic screens of the buildings on both sides.
The hovercars on both sides gave me the impression that they were driving aimlessly.
It moves without any acceleration, relying on automatic gliding and the propulsion of the water flow.
Every now and then, a rumbling sound of something scraping against the ground could be heard, sounding particularly jarring in this open environment.
After walking about 200 meters, I suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the street corner ahead.
The sound wasn't the sliding of a hovercar at all; instead, it was a very mechanical feeling, like the friction against the ground.
"What is that?!"
Yiyi also stopped, her eyes filled with a hint of fear.
I looked up and saw a woman in an orange work uniform standing at the crossroads.
She was squatting there with her back to us, surrounded by some tools.
We kept our eyes fixed on the man, and the swishing sound occasionally turned into a tearing sound.
Is it chewing on something?
Is that the action of biting into meat?
If you eat meat in the middle of the night, can it still be considered normal meat?
Moreover, the voices were strangely odd, and the movements were extremely stiff.
If it weren't for the neon lights, I would have thought this person...
No, to be more precise, this thing is like a puppet wearing clothes.
Just as we were wondering, the woman slowly turned around, her hand just tearing open a large cardboard box.
Holy crap.
The man was probably around 40 years old, with his hair mostly loose. When he saw us, he just glanced at us casually.
Then, he bent down, picked up the broom beside him, and began to sweep the ground.
Is he a cleaner?
