The day after the mission was issued, people began to go down the mountain one after another.
They went to the area around Haicheng to look for zombies. In order to increase the chance of catching them, everyone dispersed and searched separately to prevent the zombies from discovering them.
One group of people came to the place where Luo Yunjin bought noodles before.
The woman was still frying pancakes. The thin, crispy and fragrant pancakes were crispy and delicious, and the gluten inside was a little elastic.
Jin Yue also has the ability of enhanced vision. She saw a zombie covered with gray moldy hair hiding in the quilt on the bed in the house behind the woman, with only a hairy head sticking out.
Jin Yue took a step back.
The middle-aged woman seemed to notice something was wrong with her and paused for a moment while turning her wrist.
"Still buying it?" There was a hint of coldness in her voice.
"Buy! Six pancakes, thank you." The young man with special abilities didn't notice Jin Yue's eye signal. He was staring at the pancakes on the boiler.
The pancakes are crispy, delicious and fragrant.
Anyone who has smelled the fragrance will be attracted to it.
But what is puzzling is that the middle-aged woman has never left the house, but she can open her shop on time every morning and sell pancakes.
The source of the ingredients has always been a mystery.
There are many small shops on this street, and the food sources in each shop are problematic.
When Jin Yue saw the end, her body couldn't help but tremble.
There is a zombie in every open store.
Moreover, it was a high-level mutant zombie that she had never seen before. It was obviously high-level, but it could not maintain its human form.
Just as Jin Yue was about to take out the walkie-talkie, a piece of charcoal thrown by the middle-aged woman burned the back of her hand.
"Miss? Do you like spicy food?" The woman smiled, holding a plastic bottle of pepper powder in her hand, and spoke in a deep tone.
To Jin Yue, the other party's voice sounded extremely vicissitudes of life, and also contained a hint of intimidation.
"No, thank you." Jin Yue suppressed her discomfort and pinched the back of the hand of the young man with superpowers.
The other party took a step silently.
Jin Yue could see that the other party seemed to have noticed something was wrong.
After getting ten cakes, several people were about to leave.
"Young man, you dropped something." The middle-aged woman suddenly said.
The spirited young man with superpowers turned around, bent down slightly, and saw a pair of dentures.
Jin Yue:.
Middle aged woman smiling face.
"This is not mine." The young man with special abilities spoke righteously and walked away quickly.
Jin Yue:.
"It's yours!" The middle-aged woman picked up the dentures and forced them into his hand.
Dentures are like glue when they first come into your hand, and they stick firmly to your hand once they land on it.
The dentures were even slowly closing in and biting directly into the palm of the energetic young man's hand.
Spirited young man:!
Jin Yue:!
He began to scream, his dentures clenched tightly, causing a tingling pain.
All the vendors from several shops ran out and surrounded the group.
Three minutes later, all the shops were still selling, but the seven psychics who had originally come to buy things were gone.
The middle-aged woman unfolded the wrapped newspaper expressionlessly and put the ten pancakes inside back on the boiler, and the salty and fragrant aroma spread again.
Of the 25 teams that left that day, only 20 returned in the end. The remaining five teams disappeared, and all traces seemed to have been wiped out.
Even using the intercom, I couldn't get in touch with him, as if he had disappeared out of thin air.
Even Qi Chi couldn't find them.
"You mean they all went to the same place? The small street at the outermost edge?" Luo Yunjin looked at the invigilation screen.
"Yes."
"I thought that place was weird before. But the cakes I bought there were pretty delicious, and I also brought you some pickles." Luo Yunjin offered.
Qi Chi nodded, "There's nothing wrong with the cake, but there must be something wrong with the store."
Luo Yunjin and Lin Xi went on a night visit that very night.
They didn't even drive, but just put on beggar clothes that hadn't been used for a long time and sneaked into the side streets.
The streets were very gloomy at this time, and you could see a white mist spreading. The mist was swirling, and there were gusts of cold wind, and sand and broken leaves were blown by the wind.
All the doors of the houses were tightly shut, no lights were on in any house, and the scene was very gloomy.
"There's a problem here. The zombies are hiding in the house. It's not even eight o'clock yet, and all the lights are off?" Luo Yunjin rubbed his fingers.
Lin Xi kicked open the door of one of the rooms.
With a creak, the door slowly opened.
A gust of flying sand and thick smoke spread into the room, and a foul odor and a faint sour smell could be smelled.
In the light of the flashlight, you can see a zombie lying on the plank bed, severely rotten and with many maggots attached to it.
Luo Yunjin was disgusted.
Lin Xi took out an iron rod and pulled open the zombie's head, but there was nothing inside.
The zombie's limbs were twisted in a strange posture, and a lot of black and gray intestines were wrapped around its arms.
They went to other houses one by one. There was a zombie in each house, but no living people.
Where have all the vendors gone?
"Have you located it?" Luo Yunjin called Qi Chi.
"Right next to you, a lot."
Luo Yunjin looked around but found nothing. She felt a little dizzy.
"No, I have nothing here." Luo Yunjin paused and turned her gaze to Lin Xi beside her.
His skin color had been pale ever since he kicked open the door and entered the room.
It was too dark to see clearly. I hadn't noticed it until now, but now I think the skin color is a bit strange.
When I shone the flashlight over there, it was just a dummy.
A very strange dummy. It looks normal from a distance, but when you look closely, it is just a simple paper-made family member.
She didn't know how she admitted her mistake just now!
Luo Yunjin ran out of the room, and the sky outside also became paper-pasted.
The surrounding houses gradually turned into paper and looked very dilapidated.
The paper house is getting smaller and smaller, and the paper sky is getting lower and lower.
Luo Yunjin sprouted several vines, which tore the paper into pieces. Outside was a black void that looked empty and terrifying.
When all the papers were shredded, she was completely in a dark world with a hint of red.
Luo Yunjin entered the space directly.
The river flows backwards and the mutant plants become restless.
Another illusion!
It will be difficult to get out if you can't find the zombie that can only create illusions.
Luo Yunjin didn't know how long he had been walking in the dark. When he was hungry, he ate a pear, and when he was thirsty, he drank a bottle of orange juice.
A ray of white light was found at the very corner. Under the halo, several big ants were moving, followed by a group of small ants.
When Luo Yunjin walked over, she stepped on tens of thousands of ants and killed them, but she didn't notice it. It was only when she saw the black ants that were one meter tall that her scalp felt tingling.
It's so scary!
“Save me!”
"Is anyone there?"
"I'm Jin Yue. Don't go to the left. I can see a black zombie toad on the left! Come to the right!"
Luo Yunjin followed the sound and found a group of men and women squatting in the corner, covering their ears and eyes.
Jin Yue's eyes lit up when she saw Luo Yunjin! "Are you trapped here too?"
"Yes, we can't find the exit." Luo Yunjin distributed boiled eggs and orange juice to several people.
Only after they devoured the wolf's smoke did they find the feeling of being alive.
"We've been trapped here for ten days with no food, and the zombies come every five hours. Once we're discovered, we'll be caught by the zombies. They'll just find vines or other weapons to torture others, both physically and mentally." The energetic young man has turned into a frail one.
"Ten days?" Luo Yunjin glanced at her phone. If she remembered correctly, only three days had passed on her phone.
There is also a problem with the passage of time here.
And just by looking at the condition of these people with special abilities, you can tell that they must have been caught by zombies and tortured. They became so thin in just a few days. It's a scary thing!
Luo Yunjin asked them to follow her. She was very lucky and had not encountered any zombies in such a long time.
If she really encountered zombies, it would be fine, she would always find a way out. But the problem now was, there was no clue at all!
After Luo Yunjin led the way, there were indeed no zombies to be seen.
It's very weird.
Just like this a day passed, and a red light appeared in the dark environment. Fireflies were flying in the red light. It was beautiful but also dangerous.
"You guys lead the zombies here. If I lead the way, we won't encounter any zombies at all." Luo Yunjin frowned. She had been frowning these past few days and felt helpless.
Lin Xi didn't know where he went.
The strange thing is that only her walkie-talkie can still make calls.
The other walkie-talkies have lost signal.
It seemed as if everything in the illusion had little effect on her, and the other party only wanted to trap her in this place and did not want to hurt her.
On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Luo Jinbei also led several groups of people to search.
But unlike the weird scene described by Luo Yunji, in their eyes, the small street at night was normal, with lights on in every household.
The middle-aged woman who had been selling noodles before was very kind and gave them a piece of noodles that they had not bought during the day.
In Luo Yunjin's impression, the woman would not do such a loss-making business. Her goal was very clear: to earn crystal cores.
This little street is indeed not simple.
Moreover, the small red dots of zombies that Qi Chi had originally found suddenly disappeared when Luo Yunjin and Lin Xi disappeared.
Things were far more complicated than he had imagined.
"Are you okay?" Luo Jinbei asked anxiously on the other end of the intercom.
"It's okay, we are all fine, we just can't get out. Lin Xi is not with me, he may have fallen into another illusion. This zombie is too cunning, its strength should be higher than Lin Xi." Luo Yunjin was a little suspicious.
"Since you're not harming me, you must be trying to avoid me for some reason. Don't worry, the illusion might dissolve itself."
Luo Jinbei told her to be careful and not to be frugal.
Jin Yue and the others went to attract the zombies, and she moved very quickly.
Just five minutes after separating from Luo Yunjin, she encountered zombies.
The other person had a hunched back and was thin. His ribs, which looked like ribs, were visible on his body. He was thin, had thin cheeks, and his whole body was soft.
When the zombies saw Jin Yue, they came over directly like flies seeing poop.
Luo Yunjin hid in the dark, released vines, and together with another ice-type mutant, froze the zombies into blocks.
Jin Yue:.
She is so miserable!
The zombie frozen in the ice rolled its eyes, then let out a roar and broke through the ice. It stared at everyone, and finally its gaze fell on Luo Yunjin.
As if he had seen something terrifying, he turned and ran.
Luo Yunjin:
Jin Yue, who witnessed the whole process, was stunned.
Spirited young man: hemp in hemp.jpg
I feel very tired, both physically and mentally.
Luo Yunjin didn't give it a chance and tied it up again.
The zombie was silent for a while, then its brain automatically split open, and a blue crystal core popped out of its skull and fell directly in front of Luo Yunjin.
Luo Yunjin:
Can you be more obvious?
"Luo Yuanting, is that you? I know it's you. Don't hide in the dark, come out!" Luo Yunjin shouted directly.
There is a light not far away.
A man in a black slim-fit suit slowly approached, followed by two zombie wolfhounds.
"Why are you locking me up? Where's Lin Xi?"
"I'm locking you up to protect you. Lin Xi is in another space. Believe me, I will never hurt you!" Luo Yuanting said sincerely.
"Let us go!"
"no."
"you!"
"I!"
"They can go, but you can't!"
"I'm about to leave. If you don't let me go, I'll cry in front of you!"
Luo Yuanting:
"Stop it!"
"I'm serious! You have achieved your goal, right? You can do whatever you want. If you set your sights on our Stone Mountain, I don't care who you are!" Luo Yunjin directly released vines and tied up Luo Yuanting.
The other party was not worried at all and seemed to enjoy being tied up.
Luo Yunjin:
Jin Yue: numb
Spirited young man: hemp in hemp.jpg
Others: hemp in hemp in hemp.jpg
In the end, Luo Yuanting was defeated and let the man go.
"You can go, but Lin Xi needs to wait a little longer." Luo Yuanting easily broke free from the vines, as if he had cartilage skills.
Luo Yunjin:
The place where they came out was in the desert about 300 meters outside the outermost street of Haicheng.
The flying sand is fascinating.
The moment everyone came out, they were caught off guard and swallowed a mouthful of sand.
Although Luo Yunjin did not eat the sand, his eyes were dazzled and felt sore.
They walked back to the side street.
The woman selling noodles was still standing outside with an expressionless face, like an emotionless NPC.
Jin Yue originally wanted to go up and argue with them, but when she thought about how she was surrounded by them a few days ago and then dragged into that strange world, she didn't have the courage to speak out.
Luo Jinbei asked someone to take them back first. He and Luo Yunjin were going to meet Luo Yuanting to discuss things.
But there was no entrance to the illusion in the desert.
Even when threatening the woman selling pancakes, she remained silent, calm and fearless.
However, Luo Yunjin had already heard the ambiguity in her words.
In fact, the woman gave the hint a long time ago that her ingredients were all good, but she never bought the ingredients.
All the vendors on this street get their food from Luo Yuanting, who promises to provide shelter for their family members who have turned into zombies.
Because they heard that Luo Yunjin could grow a magical fruit that could turn zombies back into humans, the target became Luo Yunjin's healing ability.
Luo Yuanting didn't take the initiative to ask for the recovery fruit, but used this roundabout method, which is very annoying!
The middle-aged woman had already sent the zombies out of her home overnight, and other vendors made the same arrangement, hiding all the evidence in advance.
These are enough to show how deep these vendors' thoughts are.
She can indeed turn zombies back into humans, but it requires consuming a large amount of recovery fruit, and it only works on zombies that have not eaten humans much.
The middle-aged woman has always been polite to Luo Yunjin and is also looking forward to her fruits.
