Chapter 158
The network was not interrupted, the communication was not interrupted, and the news of the female corpse who jumped from the building began to spread explosively on the Internet. As long as people saw it, a new female corpse would appear.
It spread like a virus.
People tend to bully the weak and fear the strong. Seeing Shen Yunzhe being so tough, no one dared to take pictures anymore. Most of them quietly retreated. Shen Yunzhe looked at the female corpse trapped on the ground in front of him and put the phone to his ear.
"Director Qiao? How's it going? Have you figured out a solution?"
"No, but we've probably found the playground." Qiao Dong looked at the information in his hand. "This is also a playground that's been invaded by strange things. The name of the playground is..."
Qiao Dong frowned, perhaps feeling uncomfortable. He paused for two seconds before continuing, "It's called 'Planting'."
"Planting?" Shen Yunzhe didn't expect it to be such a clear name.
"Yes." Qiao Dong also felt a little uncomfortable. "Only one player made it out alive from this game. We only kept records based on this one player at the time, and he died in the next game soon after, so this is all the information we have."
"Survivors said they needed to plant a head at the start of the game. Yes, they really did plant a head."
"Bury the head of a woman who committed suicide by jumping from a building, then water and fertilize it. The next day, a sapling will sprout. Soon, the sapling will grow into a full-sized tree, and the woman's body will slowly grow on the tree. They need to meet the woman's demands, otherwise they will be hung on the tree to replace her."
"After raising the female corpse, the player can leave the game and return to reality."
Shen Yunzhe was silent for a moment before he said, "...Do we really have to bury this female corpse?"
"It's best not to. Planting is the playground's process. I'm worried that if we really follow the playground process, the number of female corpses will increase further." Qiao Dong frowned. He pressed his temples and felt a splitting pain in his head. "Anyway, maybe because there are so many of them, the female corpses' attack power is not strong. You can try to burn them with fire for a while."
“Once it turns into ashes, it can’t be moved.”
Shen Yunzhe looked at his charred body and asked, "Where else can I find such a big and hot fire except at the crematorium?"
"Yeah, hold on a little longer. The police and firefighters are on their way." Qiao Dong said, "Someone will be there to take over soon."
After saying that, Qiao Dong hung up the phone. Shen Yunzhe also heard the sound of the car. Several people hurried over with weapons in their hands that Shen Yunzhe had never seen before. These were the people who had been stationed around Shen Yunzhe's community before. At first, they were there to prevent the organization from causing trouble, and now it was just the right time to deal with this kind of thing.
After handing the scene over to professionals, Shen Yunzhe took another look at the person who was still sitting on the ground and throwing a tantrum, saying that he wanted to go to the hospital and asked Shen Yunzhe to compensate for his phone.
"And this person." Shen Yunzhe said, "Spread the photos. It's best to take him away now."
The official members looked at each other, and then two of them walked up to the man.
"Hey! What are you doing?! I'm the victim!"
"I'm the victim! He hit me! He even smashed my phone!"
"You should catch him!"
Shen Yunzhe watched him being led away, then looked at the onlookers behind him, "If you took any photos, delete them immediately. This thing can stay in your phone, just like the surprise Easter egg. Wherever you send it, there will be monsters. If you spread it, you will also enter the game field."
“No one will be left behind.”
Everyone's faces turned ugly in an instant. Several people quickly began to delete photos, and one with a pale face wanted to ask Shen Yunzhe what to do with the photos that had already been sent out.
Shen Yunzhe ignored him, turned around and left, letting them be scared.
No one wants to enter the playground, everyone wants to live a good life.
As the news leaked and players were also sharing it, everyone knew how terrible the game field was. Don't forget how many people disappeared just a few days ago, and how many people's relatives couldn't even find their bodies.
The police quickly took over the community where the bodies were found and dealt with the bodies in the community. Most of them were brought under control on the same day.
It can only be said that due to the large number, these corpses do not have the strength of a playground, and their attack power is about the same as that of ordinary people. The main thing is that they are scary enough.
Shen Yunzhe walked out with his cell phone and went up to the top floor.
According to Qiao Dong, this playground was originally intended to plant a head, which slowly grew into a big tree, on which lay a female corpse. Shen Yunzhe looked out from the highest point, wondering if he would see a corpse tree.
At this moment, Shen Yunzhe heard the phone ringing. Shen Yunzhe picked up the phone without looking at the caller.
"Hello?"
"It's me." Li Yiluan's voice was breathless, as if he had been running. "Are you still at home?"
"exist."
"Come out now and take bus No. 8 from your house heading east. You will see a small hill after about seven stops. Get off and wait for me." Li Yiluan said.
Shen Yunzhe was silent. "Do you want me to remind you that today is New Year's Eve and the buses are closed."
"Then take a taxi, or ask the officials to take you there. In any case, hurry over!" Li Yiluan said, "I saw it!"
"What did you see?"
"A man killed his girlfriend." Li Yiluan frowned, his voice filled with despair. "He dismembered her body, chopped off her head, and buried it there. It rained yesterday, and a small sapling sprouted where he buried her head. It soon grew into a big tree, and his girlfriend's body hung on the tree."
"It's packed with corpses!"
Depend on……
Shen Yunzhe quickly went downstairs and rushed out of the community, just in time to see the official people preparing to leave.
Shen Yunzhe opened the car door and got in. Looking at the confused looks in the eyes of those people, he asked them to take him to the location Li Yuluan had just mentioned. They looked at each other, and finally two people quickly drove Shen Yunzhe there, while the others notified the official top leaders.
While the car was moving, Shen Yunzhe was still talking on the phone with Li Yuluan.
"How did you see that? There was a dead body in your neighborhood?"
"Not only did a body appear, but the man who buried the body just happened to be where I live." Li Yiluan frowned. "I don't know where he heard I was a fortune teller, so he came to me for a fortune-teller. I knew something was wrong when I saw him. Then a body jumped from the building, and when he turned around to look, his face looked like a ghost."
"Of course it's like a ghost, because the female corpse that jumped down is exactly the same as the girlfriend he killed."
"Where are you now? I'm in the official car. I asked them to pick you up." Shen Yunzhe asked.
Li Yuluan quickly reported the address and the car turned a corner. There were few cars on the road on New Year's Eve, and the car quickly found Li Yuluan walking on the road. After getting in the car, Li Yuluan accurately determined the location. These official personnel also understood the importance of the matter. One drove carefully, and the other reported to the superiors and requested additional manpower.
Soon they arrived at the place, and Shen Yunzhe got out of the car. He looked at the big tree in front of him with almost surprise.
It is a tree that is hard to forget once you see it.
The tree is as tall as a five-story building, with lush branches and leaves, but the tree is surrounded by a sticky spider web-like substance. In these sticky webs, heads are grown on the tree like fruits. Some have grown limbs, and some are still heads.
When they saw someone coming, all the corpses in the trees let out sharp cries.
Amidst the crying and shouting, Shen Yunzhe also heard laughter.
Shen Yunzhe covered his ears and carefully identified that those who were crying and screaming were corpses that had not yet fully grown, and the corpses that were about to fall to the ground would laugh.
Too scary.
"What is this thing?" The official member who came with them looked at the tree with an ugly expression.
"This is the real body of those corpses." Li Yiluan looked at the tree. "If we find a way to get rid of this tree, maybe those messy corpses in the city will disappear."
The official members perked up, "Really?!"
"It's just a probability. Do you know what probability means? I'm a fortune teller, so I can only give you a possibility." Li Yiluan said, "First, get rid of these spiderweb-like things. Then cut down the tree and dig up the roots. Then dig out the head at the bottom. It would be best to burn it together with the man who killed her."
Shen Yunzhe was curious, "Can this alleviate the female corpse's resentment?"
"This will ease my resentment." Li Yili said confidently. The cool guy was furious. "Damn it, how dare you kill someone and bury the body at this time?"
This resentment made the official members tremble, and they quickly began to report to their superiors. After a while, a helicopter arrived and Shen Yunzhe and Li Yuluan were asked to leave. The helicopter sprinkled some medicine on the tree, and the next moment there was fire. With a bang, the whole tree was burning.
The spider webs and trees were crackling in the fire, and even from a long distance they could hear the screams coming from the trees.
Two hours passed before the flames burned out. The helicopter sprayed water again. When they came back, they saw the tree trunk that had been burned to charcoal. The professionals who had been prepared immediately took their equipment and started digging the tree roots. After digging hard, they finally dug up a head.
The woman's head had rotted, but it was still alive. When it was dug out, it opened its mouth and made a baby-like crying sound.
No one would not tremble after seeing such a scene. They almost moved the head out with trembling hands and put it in a special glass box. Then they quickly took the glass box to the designated place. They even diligently referred to Li Yulun's method and caught the murderous boyfriend and waited in the same place.
How to solve the problem later is the official's business. Shen Yunzhe and Li Yuluan have never joined the official and will not follow suit now.
"This should be fine, right?" Shen Yunzhe asked Li Yuluan.
"I don't know. Actually, I called you here in the beginning because I wanted you to handle it." Li Yiluan sat on a bench by the roadside. "Can't your brother directly harm strange things? If it's him, he can completely deal with this head."
Shen Yunzhe sat next to him and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. He lit the cigarette, took a puff, and then handed it to Li Yuluan.
Li Yuluan shook his head, indicating that he didn't smoke.
"I didn't smoke before," Shen Yunzhe said, watching the white smoke rising from the cigarette in his hand. "Until last time on the train, I learned it."
However, rather than saying that Shen Yunzhe can smoke, it is better to say that his synchronized partner at the time loved smoking, so he learned it too.
"Even Hope would have a hard time dealing with this situation right now," Shen Yunzhe said. "With so many corpses, we can only clean them up if we find the real bodies. So, most of the time, Hope is more like the final executor. But if so many strange creatures appear at once, there's nothing we can do, because he's the only executor."
Li Yiluan looked at Shen Yunzhe, "I won't always be so lucky. I can't always find the location of the strange creature."
"Yes, that's right." Shen Yunzhe exhaled a puff of smoke. "It's impossible for one person to do it alone. You and I are just a tiny part of the puzzle. If it were really that easy to handle, all the parallel worlds wouldn't be completely consumed."
Perhaps Shen Wei understood this, so he made such a decision.
If one person cannot save the world, then let the efforts of countless parallel worlds merge into one to form a huge force to fight against the game field.
Shen Yunzhe is the carrier, and only he can be the carrier.
Li Yiluan leaned back in his chair, "Isn't it you who is the destiny I see occasionally?"
He was referring to Shen Yunzhe's counterpart. Li Yuluan could see the two destinies on Shen Yunzhe when they were synchronized, but often these destinies had already ended, and Shen Yunzhe was like being possessed by a ghost.
"Of course it's me." Shen Yunzhe said, "If it weren't me, how could I possibly coexist harmoniously with these things?"
"I don't quite understand." As a fortune teller, Li Yuluan really couldn't understand the parallel world.
He simply asked, "Will it get any worse?"
"You are a fortune teller, you should know better than me."
Li Yuluan thought: Can I really see more clearly than others?
But apart from a flash of inspiration, all he saw were obscure and difficult to identify scenes.
He saw a huge statue of the Virgin Mary, many strange things, humans and shadows crawling on the ground, official personnel running, and even Huang Yihua exhausting all his blood trying to break something, but he didn't see Shen Yunzhe.
He didn't know where Shen Yunzhe had gone, but he was surprisingly not worried.
…
"How could it develop so fast?" Shen Yunzhe muttered to himself as he walked home.
The disappearance of the live broadcast system dealt a heavy blow to the gaming community. The system responded: In other parallel worlds, this kind of trauma doesn't exist. Neither Codename Sleep Disorder nor Codename Corrosion alone can shake this ironclad order. Until you bring them together.
[They created the conditions to break this taboo, and also made the gaming field feel threatened.]
"So, is this my question?" Shen Yunzhe frowned. "I have a question too. All the parallel worlds were eroded twenty years ago. Why has this one managed to survive until now?"
【Because you are here. 】
"Yeah?"
You are a life form born from the origin of the gaming field. The gaming field is not a person, it is more of an emotional trend. Because you are there, they assume that this parallel world has been occupied, until Codename Sleep Disorder and Codename Corrosion cooperated to destroy the live broadcast system.
【Then it finally discovered that you had betrayed it.】
Shen Yunzhe rolled his eyes silently in his heart. He didn't expect that he could be described as a traitor.
But in short, Shen Yunzhe understood that there were many reasons why Shen Wei dared to steal him out. It was not just the parallel world system, but also because after he was stolen, there was a probability that the speed of erosion of the game field would be slowed down, giving him more time to deal with the game field.
So he did it, and it was a success.
When we arrived at the gate of the community, it was already late. Most of the bodies had been disposed of by the authorities, and the community had returned to its former peace. Some people had already started setting off firecrackers, and the crackling sound of firecrackers seemed to be dispelling the haze in everyone's hearts.
When it’s midnight, it’s the new year.
Shen Yunzhe put his hands in his pockets and just stepped into the community when suddenly, a bell rang. The sound sounded solemn and dignified. Shen Yunzhe raised his head the moment he heard it.
Because he had heard this voice.
When he left the mountain village and the village disappeared from everyone's sight, a bell rang.
Shen Yunzhe turned his head and looked at the sky not far away. Countless people were looking there.
A huge hand suddenly appeared in the clouds. It was not very clear in the evening, but it was indeed a huge stone hand. The hand was delicate and soft, and it should be a woman's hand.
"No way?" Shen Yunzhe murmured, "Is this the hand of the Virgin Mary?"
Coming so fast?!
