Very quickly, my work and rest these days have begun to spread out evenly 24 hours a day... At this time, I just woke up not long ago, sleeping for a while and getting up for a while... Anyway, I have reconciled with life...
The puppet master once said that if Lin Sanjiu was smart, he would wish to starve to death in the depths of the sea - but this sentence seemed a bit difficult to realize at the moment.
Because Lin Sanjiu was standing in front of a McDonald's right now.
...More than a month has passed since I was almost captured alive by the puppet master.
For more than a month, Lin Sanjiu had not had a full night's sleep - she had no fresh water and had been relying on drinking coffee to survive; her nerves were in an overdraft state of lack of sleep and forced excitement all day long. After a month,
The areas under her eyes were stained with a thick blue-black color.
But even so, she still did not give up searching for the whereabouts of Rabbit and the others.
The area near the sea was covered with plastic mannequins. It seemed that the puppeteer had already made up her mind to settle down at the pier, so she couldn't get close at all. She could only search round and round, heading deeper into the ground.
Looking for the shadows of my companions.
But nothing was found.
Not only that, Lin Sanjiu also found that she was lost.
In fact, if you think about it, getting lost is normal - if anyone is thrown into the middle of the vast sea, they will lose their direction without a navigation map or compass. Lin Sanjiu has long since lost his way.
It became a very fatal thing.
Without the sea water, the undersea continent evaporated a strange fishy smell under the scorching sunlight, which lasted for a long time. The undersea plain did not last long, and the terrain was gradually occupied by rolling sea hills, looking like a mountain.
It was like a forest. After climbing through most of the small sea hills, Lin Sanjiu stood on the highest hill, feeling vaguely anxious.
She just counted and found that she only had three boxes of chocolates left in her hand. She had run out of food, and the way forward was still bleak.
She climbed to the top of the mountain and looked into the distance, and found that about a thousand meters away, the terrain seemed to have suddenly broken, and there was only a dark area with nothing visible - it was a submarine canyon.
After jumping off the sea hill, she came to the edge of the broken valley.
Although there was no food in the deep sea, Lin Sanjiu had never seen an underwater canyon; out of curiosity, she leaned on the edge and looked down.
The canyon dropped straight from the feet, and it was so close that it was shocking. The sea floor turned into a cliff, and it suddenly fell for several kilometers. Without even a moment of relief, it plunged into the deep and dark valley bottom. The starlight at night could not illuminate it at all.
Entering the canyon, as far as the eye can see, there is only endless darkness and steep cliffs with sharp angles.
Anyone who wants to go down after seeing this kind of landscape must be mentally ill——
Lin Sanjiu scolded herself for being mentally ill, while struggling to climb onto a protruding rock and climb down carefully. The rough rocks and salt sand made her palms hurt. If it hadn't been for physical strengthening,
, I am afraid that this cliff, which even professional rock climbers are afraid of, has long become her burial place.
Why didn't you look back just now? She asked herself a little regretfully.
Even if you are lost, if you keep walking towards the flat ground, you will have more hope than going down the canyon, right?
She was indeed about to turn around and leave just now - but at that moment, she suddenly heard a familiar voice. This voice, she had almost never heard it since the arrival of the new world.
That's the sound of water.
It sounded like slow waves, beating against the rocks one after another.
Lin Sanjiu knelt down and looked at the endless darkness where nothing could be seen clearly. He pictured the appearance of the sea in his mind - even though most of the world has died, there are still things under the deep sea.
Water is still alive.
Just like humans.
The sound of water waves reminded people of the past, a comfortable, ordinary and even boring past - Lin Sanjiu leaned on the edge of the cliff and listened quietly to the waves for a long time.
Of course, if this was the case, she would never go down.
Just as she was looking at the bottom of the valley in ecstasy, she suddenly noticed something flashing in the darkness.
As if the power connection was no longer very sensitive, the light flashed several times and finally turned on steadily. The bright and full yellow light looked so familiar, casting a circle of "M" shapes in the darkness.
Halo.
McDonald's.
For a moment, Lin Sanjiu felt that it was because she could not bear all the events since the destruction of the world that she finally suffered a mental breakdown.
Otherwise, why is there a McDonald's sign light on the seabed nearly 10,000 meters deep when the world is in ruins?
No, it's not just a signboard - Lin Sanjiu stared dumbfounded at the "M" shaped light, which flashed twice more. In her ears, she seemed to be able to hear the "pop" of the current passing through the lamp.
Sound - Then, a brightly lit McDonald's restaurant appeared in the darkness.
The orange light illuminated the foyer - it was difficult to see clearly because it was very far away, but the row of red "McDonald's" was still clearly imprinted on her retinas.
Lin Sanjiu, who had been drinking coffee for a month and barely slept a wink, knew vaguely that something was wrong, but without much thought, she stepped on a rock and climbed to the bottom of the valley.
Go down.
The appetite that had lost all vitality in the presence of chocolate juice suddenly came to life, and a clear sense of hunger hit Lin Sanjiu's brain. As she crawled, she couldn't help but think of the crispy fried spicy chicken wings -
Thousands of meters of cliffs are an extremely difficult task even for evolved humans: the knife Lin Sanjiu used to fix his body had curled up and deformed halfway; his fingers were scarred and stained.
A hand full of salt grains, that kind of pain, it can hurt all the way into a person's heart. In the second half, she almost rolled down - without the protection of the vest, when Lin Sanjiu got up, she had already
Covered with bruises.
But, at least we finally hit rock bottom.
That McDonald's restaurant with warm light was about 200 meters away from her, like a wonderful dream.
Through the clean glass door, you can see the spotless red brick floor inside, the metallic silver countertop, and the almost dazzling English menu...a restaurant with beautiful color, plump beef, and leafy cheese that is too thick to bite off.
The Big Mac is lighting up on the billboard, like a seductive siren.
Lin Sanjiu walked towards it blankly for a few steps, stepped on the muddy and soft wet sand, and stepped into the sea water, making a "snap" sound.
Something is wrong, something is really wrong... There is absolutely no way there is a clean McDonald's with the lights on here.
So what did you see with your own eyes?
She didn't need to slap herself. The clear pain from the numerous small wounds on her body already showed that she was very awake at the moment.
The glass door sensed someone approaching and immediately opened silently. The smell of food suddenly hit his nostrils, and Lin Sanjiu walked in as if he was sleepwalking.
The glass door was closed tightly behind her.
Lin Sanjiu looked around blankly. There was no one in the restaurant, only the aroma of food was wafting continuously from the direction of the kitchen - she called out her mouth and cautiously approached the ordering table.
Looking back from here, he couldn't see anything, and the French fries machine was also empty. Lin Sanjiu thought he was so disappointed: How could there be food in a restaurant ten thousand meters deep under the sea?
But she still walked around the ordering counter uncontrollably, heading towards the kitchen.
Suddenly, there was a "Gulu" sound coming from nowhere. It was very deep, as if it came from a place far behind the kitchen.
Lin Sanjiu paused and listened, but there was no sound again. The situation was too strange. She felt that her mind was confused and not suitable for acting rashly, so she hesitated and did not go in.
In the kitchen, he climbed up to the ordering counter, stretched out his arms and attached the [Defense Edition Sunny Day Doll] to the roof.
As soon as it was hung up, a deafening scream tore through the air - the defense doll could not find the fixed location of the source of danger, and was spinning wildly in circles, almost becoming a shadow. She was startled by this,
My mind suddenly became clearer. I quickly reached out and took it off, jumped off the table and ran towards the door.
The glass door didn't move at all.
"What the hell is going on here?"
The seemingly fragile glass door still didn't have a single crack even after Lin Sanjiu smashed it several times with all her strength. She anxiously looked for the window, only to realize that there were no windows at all in this McDonald's - but Sunny Baby
It was as if I was scared out of my wits. Even though it was taken off, the sharp cries continued, making people extremely upset.
Water gushed out of the red floor tiles at some point and became sticky and slippery; the lights flickered and the surrounding area quickly darkened, and soon nothing could be seen clearly; the most frightening thing was that the floor
It slowly tilted, and after a while it stood upright at a steep slope, as if someone had lifted the restaurant to one side and vowed to let Lin Sanjiu slide along the floor into the back kitchen——
The floor tilted more and more, and Lin Sanjiu fell to the ground with a thump. She grabbed the floor with both hands in vain, trying to steady her body and not fall. However, what she got was a slippery and wet patch, and nothing else.
nor.
As if she felt her body sliding down, the ordering table suddenly disappeared as if it melted, clearing the way for her to fall into the back kitchen - she didn't dare to think about what was there.
Just as she was fluttering and struggling desperately, the restaurant suddenly stopped.
The floor trembled violently for a few times, and then slowly flattened. Although nothing could be seen in the darkness, a sea breeze suddenly blew in from the direction of the door, as if the door had opened. The accident happened just like that.
It was just as sudden as it came. Lin Sanjiu was lying on the floor, stunned, when suddenly a wave of water surged out from behind, and she was involuntarily swept out of the door by this smelly wave.
With a "pop" sound, she fell headlong into the sea water outside.
Lin Sanjiu hurriedly climbed up on his hands and knees. There was no light around him and he had no idea what had just happened - everything was quiet, as if the strange McDonald's just now was just a dream.
It would be nice if there was light - as soon as this thought crossed his mind, Lin Sanjiu suddenly thought of something and hurriedly called out a card; as the silver light in his hand shone, several meters in the area were immediately dyed white. It was the [Ability Polishing Agent] found from Ren Nan.
Under the shining, flowing silver light, she stared at the thing in front of her in stunned silence, unable to speak.
This is a huge fish.
A pair of deathly white, pupil-less eyes were facing Lin Sanjiu. A mouth as long as a subway car was half-opened, and a large number of jagged and sharp fangs, like a dense forest, protruded from the mouth. Huge. Half of the fish's body was exposed on the water, and blood was bubbling out from the dark fish skin, dripping down into the seawater at its feet like countless small fountains.
What makes people unable to take their eyes away the most is the long, light-tube-like thing on its lower jaw.
"Miss Lin...? Did you kill this deep-sea arowana?"
From behind the giant fish head, in the deep darkness, a voice suddenly sounded.
