Forgotten by me
As the alarm sounded, a figure who seemed to have been waiting for a long time suddenly flashed in and pretended to smash the pillar where I was soaking.
Seeing the blood beads floating around my body, he was stunned on the spot, with his hands raised to his head, not knowing whether to hit me or not, with a helpless expression.
I coughed and knocked on the glass: "Never mind, let's go!"
The other party didn't hesitate. The pillar cracked with a clang, and then the artificial amniotic fluid flowed all over the ground.
I didn't stand steadily, and actually didn't see clearly who this muscular man in front of me who was quick, accurate and ruthless in his attacks was. As soon as I tilted, he wrapped me in a bed sheet, slung it over his shoulder like a sack, and then rushed out with it in his arms.
This happened so suddenly that I was totally dazed and the pain all over my body was almost gone. I patted the strong man on the back in a daze and asked him what was going on.
As a result, I subconsciously glanced around during the bumpy ride and found that he was carrying me towards the dark, and not in the direction of the reservoir at all.
I was startled, and then I suddenly realized that he was leading me towards the Rusty Team.
As soon as I ran into the darkness, I immediately realized that someone was trying to kidnap me. In an instant, the lights in the camp lit up one after another. The guy was familiar with the route and carried me around, instantly avoiding my sight and the intermittent questions behind me.
I was so shaken that I almost felt the momentum of someone climbing over a wall to grab the official seal and rushing out of the door in the financial news. I was really confused.
"Hey, slow down, slow down," I said anxiously, "Who are you?"
The guy's legs were not slow at all, and his voice was a bit unfair: "Master, stop talking, let's run first!"
Young master.
When I heard this awkward name again, I was stunned for a moment, and actually felt as if I was in another world.
Then came a strange sudden realization.
After getting down from the ground, I once wondered if I had forgotten something important. Just before I fainted, I thought that what I had forgotten was Dongzai.
At this moment, I am asking myself clearly:
"After going down to the ground, didn't you feel that there was a necessary person missing from your team?"
Squad leader.
Because I was worried about Yan Er, I deliberately assigned the team leader and the six surviving guys in the team to Yan Er's side. Because they were the most trustworthy to me, even more than Wildcat Gao Liu and the others.
Manager Yan Er was in a team, and he brought only a trusted deputy with him.
But after I woke up, I completely forgot about and ignored the team leader and several surviving members of the convoy.
As I was thinking about it, the guy had already put me down steadily, as skillfully as if he was holding a piece of sugar cane, and he smiled and said, "Get off at your stop, young master, welcome home."
I stopped and looked up, and sure enough, I was carried to the front of the convoy covered with rust and mud. I was standing in front of my own ill-fated grocery store.
I can’t describe the feeling. I looked at the store door and for a moment I had mixed feelings, even a little homesick.
My friend didn't rush me, but just held me tightly to prevent me from falling in the wind.
Through the rolling shutter door that had a big hole in it caused by a chainsaw, you could vaguely see a place filled with broken cold fireworks sticks, and a person sitting inside.
We went in and the floor was covered in mud, and you couldn't tell its original color. Also, because I had been looking for a videotape, I had someone search it, and now it looked like a mess.
The team leader looked up at me, his face looked a little blue and white in the cold light, which was quite scary, but he was grinning, with a green stubble, and handed me something.
I simply sat down on the ground, and when I looked at the weak light, I felt like laughing. The team leader handed me a fruit plate, but it was very shabby, with only two apple slices and one pear slice on it.
He had been asked to carve this thing countless times before, and now it seemed so familiar to him.
"Master, your freezer is broken. We spent a long time cleaning it, and only these apples are left. They are all dried up." The team leader said, as if he was blaming me. "If you hadn't come, these apples would have been selected as mummies."
I couldn't help wanting to laugh, and then I saw the guy who carried me here also sat down. I don't know why, but I felt as if I was back by the campfire, feeling very relaxed and comfortable.
"Apples are good, they come just in time for me to be discharged from the hospital." I ate a slightly fresher piece. Because I was in a good mood, my body didn't hurt as much, so I chewed it and asked him vaguely what was going on.
The guy next to me actually found some snacks from the collapsed shelf and gave them to me, then he lowered his head and concentrated on making a bottle of soda for me.
What the team leader said surprised me. It turned out that he and the other six guys were the first to open their eyes after landing in the pit.
Perhaps it was because on the day of the lunar disaster, they, the survivors, were in charge of patrolling. As guards, they were partially protected by the rules of the sentry box and suffered the least pollution and distortion. After going underground, they woke up earlier than the rest of us.
After they came down, they didn't explore the camp at all, but just waited for me to show up at the reservoir. As a result, no one else showed up for a long time.
Hearing this, I guessed that the deeper the power of the pit was, the slower and more complete the awakening of the "fetus" after going underground, and the deeper the potential distortion. So as the naughty child who threw firecrackers at the center of the moon disaster, I woke up the latest and appeared in the pit.
The team leader said that they felt something was wrong at the time and immediately discussed the next course of action.
Unlike the others in the team going underground, these seven survivors from the convoy didn't care about the pit or the camp at all. They just followed them to get an answer that would be enough for revenge.
They looked at each other tacitly, and they both saw a burning sense of shame and unwillingness in each other's eyes.
"Let's find a place to hide and wait for the young master to show up."
The team leader said to the other six people, "Don't look at anything else, don't care about anything, eat and drink only the stock in the grocery store. Except for taking turns to go out to contact the young master at regular times, all other times you should sleep. Remember, we have been dead since that night."
Without any disagreement, the seven of them walked straight towards the convoy, cleaned up some of the mud that had backflowed into the carriages, and searched for food and bottled drinking water in the grocery store.
In the caravan, they drew lots and decided that two guys would go out to search, leaving me some secret codes to guide me to find it. The others fell to the ground and slept to conserve their energy, and really didn't think or do anything.
"Code?" I was stunned. What code? A somewhat unbelievable guess popped up in my mind. "The metal fragments are... you..."
"Oh, those bodies."
The team leader touched the back of his head and smiled, "It took us some time to find the convoy. When we searched along the way, we found several bodies dumped there. They looked like they were from many years ago. We moved them to the reservoir, thinking that you would eventually show up from there."
However, during this process, they found that the completely swollen state of the corpse could easily be misleading, and they were also worried that it would be damaged by the movement of people in the nearby camp, so they dug a very hasty earth pit nearby, buried the corpse in it, and made very obvious flaws on it.
Judging from the basic qualities of the other people in the team, they can feel that there is something wrong with the soil under their feet just by stepping on it.
"We buried the bodies and found something was wrong. The bodies sank as if they had entered a swamp, and their swelling became much worse. One of the bodies had half a finger melted away."
The team leader added that after searching, they found that only one body was in the best condition. After searching, they found that he had many small metal saw blades and razor blades on him.
It is said that it was quite popular in the team for a while to use this kind of thing to practice the strength and accuracy of the hands. After the team leader looked through and took away the pile of metal, he found that the corpses also began to mutate rapidly.
"Give it to all the seniors." The team leader said, and asked a guy to run errands back to the Rusty Team and searched for some miscellaneous metal objects.
Next, they crushed all the metals they found into small pieces that were easy to carry and stuffed a small bag into each body, both to preserve the bodies and leave clues, and also as a self-defense tool for those of us who later discovered them.
He also left me a note, which, out of caution, only had my store number written on it, and sealed it in an oil-paper bag, asking me to return to the caravan grocery store as soon as possible after reading it.
This explanation went on very smoothly. I ate and drank while listening and nodding, thinking that this was indeed the empire I had built with my own hands. It was easy and worry-free for me to be on my own, and it was very comfortable not having to use my brain to figure things out.
I was given an explanation of the problems that had been bothering me for a long time, and there was an unexpected surprise.
"We have found the entrance to the tunnel above." The team leader said. Under the cold light, there was almost no dirt on his and the other man's faces, and their skin was in normal condition. "The entrance is right there. I don't know why you can't see it as if you were blinded by a ghost."
I nodded, thinking that the team leader and his men might not have fallen into this pollution cycle of "womb" and "fetus".
As for the group of us who appeared later, since we were already fetuses being incubated and conceived, they should not be allowed and could not be aware of where the "umbilical cord" of the fetal uterus was.
After the team leader finished speaking, he stopped and told me to eat something and have a good sleep. We can talk more when we wake up. Later, he asked Xiao Liu beside him to report to Wildcat Gao Liu alone.
I wanted to laugh when I heard this. How come this guy doesn't like the second shopkeeper Yan? Old Yan really wins because of his skills, but loses because of his character at the starting line.
It wasn’t a big deal, so I just asked for a blanket, closed my eyes and lay down with the distinct smell of plastic on it.
After lying down and relaxing, I felt sore all over. Not only did I have floaters in front of my eyes, but my ears were also a little itchy. I hissed, stretched my arms and legs as far as possible, closed my eyes and asked casually:
"Why are we the only ones sneaking around here? Where are the other brothers you mentioned?"
The team leader suddenly fell silent.
I was almost about to jump up, but a pair of rough hands covered my face, preventing me from opening my eyes.
"Just go to sleep. You're already a grown-up, but you still worry about me every day." The team leader said with a bit of a wry smile, "A few of them... died when they went out."
Broken?
My mind was a little blank, and for a moment I wondered if I had understood it wrongly.
Just now, they were fine. They were not that seriously polluted. They even hid in the shelter of the convoy and seemed not to be completely discovered by the pit.
They were in good condition, how could they be defeated? Didn't they survive that night? Why did they die here? This is nonsense.
I said coldly, let go and explain yourself clearly to me.
The team leader was silent for a while again, completely speechless. I suppressed my emotions and said to the guy next to me, "Xiao Liu, you go ahead."
Xiao Liu choked for a moment, and then said with difficulty that after they made a series of arrangements and hid in the convoy together, they drew lots to let only two people go out to look for clues and contact me, and the others were absolutely not allowed to show up.
However, after the two men went out, they disappeared without a trace.
Next, they sent out two more guys. This time, they didn't go anywhere. They just waited near the reservoir waiting for us to show up. They took turns to rest and watch over each other.
When we showed up, the two guys, whose faces were covered in mud, didn't dare to recognize us. They just kept a distance from us and went to the camp with us.
Hearing this, I felt a little sad.
Sure enough, Xiao Liu said that the two guys immediately saw Zhou Tingmao, who was extremely distorted at that time.
The two guys had seen with their own eyes that the dead man had turned into a deformed monster after mixing into the team, and their anger and hatred suddenly had a target.
One of the guys immediately chased Zhou Tingmao who was retreating into the darkness, vowing to make this devil give an explanation. The other stayed behind to continue to observe the situation, and soon saw me bleeding and fainting.
The guy was extremely anxious on the spot. He waited and waited, but his companion still didn't come back. Finally, he gritted his teeth and went back to the convoy to report the news.
"On the way back, he was chased and ambushed by that ghost thing."
The team leader said, I felt him take his hand back, and then his whole body collapsed all of a sudden.
"I watched him coming, but that thing suddenly appeared behind him, and just..." I slowly opened my eyes and saw that the team leader's eyes were red on his bearded face.
