The scorching sun was in the sky, scorching everything in the world. As soon as I stepped out of the car door, the scalding heat immediately made it difficult to breathe; there was still wind in the extremely hot hell, but it was worse than nothing - every gust of wind was like a
The red-hot coals from the pot were thrown at people with all their might.
After getting out of the car, Lu Ze and Marcel suddenly frowned and covered their mouths and noses. Since all the green plants and trees have died, the soil has all desertified under the high temperature, and the thick yellow sand is blowing in the wind.
The drums kept raging between heaven and earth, and grains of sand fell on eyebrows and eyelashes, making it impossible to even open one's eyes, and one could only keep squinting to see things.
As soon as Mather opened her mouth, she was choked by the yellow sand and coughed several times. Then she reluctantly said: "...Are you sure? I was at the end just now, but I didn't notice that there was a car behind me."
When Lin Sanjiu got out of the car, she grabbed a T-shirt and tied it on her face as a mask. It was better than the other two people. The hot yellow sand kept hitting her exposed skin.
Lin Sanjiu endured the pain and whispered: "I'm sure that car has followed us all the way. But because the dust is so heavy, it is far away, so it disappears and appears... Wait, it's coming!"
Just as he finished speaking, a cloud of smoke and dust rose up not far away, and a Citroën that was so dirty that the color could not be seen rushed out from the rolling yellow sand——
Unexpectedly, when they saw the three large cars in front of them all stopped, and Lin Sanjiu and others standing in the middle of the road, the Citroën suddenly braked, then swerved, as if it was about to run away.
However, in such a short distance, it couldn't just run. Lin Sanjiu took a few steps, then accelerated his feet. Before the Citroën turned around, his whole body was jumping like a leopard.
Got on the front of the car.
As the front of the car sank, Citroën seemed to panic, the tires made a harsh squeaking sound, and the person inside faintly shouted something - Lin Sanjiu was shaken by the car and hurriedly stabilized himself.
He got up, leaned on the front of the car, and shouted into the car: "Get out of the car!"
In such a blink of an eye, Luze and Mather had already rushed forward, forming an encirclement around Citroën.
The car stopped and the engine stalled.
Through the dirty windshield, Lin Sanjiu could only vaguely see a figure sitting inside. He didn't know whether it was a man or a woman. Old or young - I really couldn't figure out how this person was driving under such a sight.
. She waited, then impatiently tapped the windshield with her baton, then signaled the driver to get out of the car again.
If she read correctly, this car was coming from the shopping mall.
The door on the driver's seat opened, and a man wearing a wrinkled suit stepped out of the car while wiping the sweat from his head.
This man looks like he is only in his twenties. He is not tall. His skin is rough and dark. He has a round fleshy face. His white shirt has turned a dirty yellow-black color. For some reason, Lin Sanjiu always feels that
If he had a beard, he would definitely look like a field mouse. Although the suit he is wearing seems to be made of good quality, it seems to be very ill-fitting: the trousers are a lot too long and rolled up high, exposing the inside.
Gray and white high-waisted socks.
"Who are you? Why have you been following us?" Mather asked with a frown.
The man who looked like a field mouse rolled his small black eyes in panic, glanced at the three people, and then stammered: "I, I didn't mean it."
Lu Ze suddenly snorted: "Then you accidentally followed us?"
Lin Sanjiu jumped out of the car and stood in front of the car without saying a word, holding the baton in his hand.
The man seemed to be very afraid of Lin Sanjiu. As soon as she got out of the car, he immediately moved a few steps in the opposite direction? Far away from her, and at the same time explained hurriedly: "No, no, listen to me, it's like this
Okay... I've actually known you for a long time, and I don't mean any harm. I'm in the business of selling medical devices. After socializing with a client that night, he was sending me back, but there was a sudden power outage, and we were stuck in the shopping mall.
…”
"Let's get to the point!" Mather shouted in a more serious tone, probably because she was tortured by the wind and sand outside and lost her good temper.
"Ah... yes, yes, anyway, we have been stuck in the shopping mall, not daring to get out of the car, so we lived for two days with a box of drinks in the car... I saw you, several times, in and out
Come on, you seem to have adapted very quickly, that's amazing!" When the man said this, he did not forget to compliment him in a flattering manner. Seeing that there was no response from the others, he spat out the sand in his mouth and continued.
Said: "Oh, then one night, a pretty good-looking woman came and said she had water at home, and asked my client to get out of the car and get water from her. But I didn't pay attention for a while, and my client was gone.
!The woman went to the next car again!"
The expressions on the three people's faces all changed - it seemed that Kong Yun really did not let go of the living people on the street outside.
The man looked at their faces and continued tentatively: "How dare I stay in the car anymore, so I ran to the convenience store across the street, and I'm still alive now... I saw you guys leaving this morning.
, I was scared myself, so, I just caught up..."
"What's your name?" Lu Ze was a little impatient because this man was chatty.
"My name is Tian Minbo, and others call me Field Mouse." The man said with a busy smile.
It seems that he is not the only one who feels this way - Lin Sanjiu laughed inwardly, but his expression did not change at all. He asked with a serious face: "What do you want from following us?"
The field mouse was stunned and said hurriedly: "I don't mean any harm, I really don't... I also have food and drink in the car, I just want to find a companion to go with... Besides, I also have something to remind you."
"Reminder of what?"
"Have you been driving your car for a while?" The field mouse said, his eyes lingering on several cars. "I advise you not to drive it until tonight."
"Why?" Lu Ze frowned and looked around - the place they stopped was not very comfortable. It used to be a central park, a vast forest and green space, which can be said to be the most pleasant place in the city.
.But after this month, the shadow of the park has completely disappeared. There is only dust and sand in the sky accompanied by dry black tree shells, blown in the air by the wind. On the horizon, there are still a few faintly like fallen species.
The shadow is lingering.
The sky was a rich yellow with no hope, accompanied by the scorching sunshine.
"The weather is so hot, the engine will burn out if I keep driving. Don't believe it, I have written off a car before, it was a Mercedes-Benz, and it was still broken! It almost caught fire! Not to mention you guys.
Trucks and buses..." The field mouse wiped the sand off his face and showed a sincere expression. "Really, if you don't believe me, go and touch the engine."
Hearing this, Lin Sanjiu sighed suddenly and stopped Mather who was turning to leave: "No need to go, it's true. His Citroen just now was hot to the touch."
When the vole heard this, he immediately squealed and turned around to open the front hood of the car. As soon as the hood opened, a stream of white smoke with a burnt smell slowly floated up, and was instantly blown away by the wind and sand. The vole fiddled nervously with the engine for a while.
, raised his head with a frightened expression and said: "It was so close, I almost died."
The three people looked at each other, quite helpless - even the French Citroën was dying, so their bus must be more dangerous. It seemed that they could only stay here with this vole and wait for the engine to cool down before leaving.
.However, Lin Sanjiu is very resistant to the surrounding environment.
Because the surrounding area is really too empty - after the Central Park, which covers an area of several thousand square meters, is deserted, the line of sight is unobstructed. If there is any danger, their living rakes won't even have a hiding place.
Mather sighed: "It seems we have to wait..."
"Yes, yes, hey, it's too hot outside, not the place to talk. How about you get in the car and let's have a good chat in the car? Let's make friends!" See how many people were moved by his persuasion.
, the field mouse opened the car door hurriedly and took out a bottle of water and handed it to Mather. "I don't have a destination, I just want to find a companion... Where are you going? If you don't mind, just
Let me go with you?"
The three people looked at each other, but no one spoke for a while.
After experiencing the Kong Yun incident, we really had to be careful; however, we couldn't stop eating because of this incident - they always had to deal with other people. Thinking of this, Lin Sanjiu said: "I can let you
Come with us, but you must first tell me what your abilities are?"
The vole's mouth suddenly opened into an "O" shape.
"Don't tell me that it's been a month and you still don't know about evolutionary abilities?" Lin Sanjiu deliberately turned cold, with a hint of intimidation in her voice: "If I didn't know you, how could I dare to partner up with you?
"
Although that is what he said... But... Lu Ze and Mather looked at each other with a bit of embarrassment on their faces. If they really don't want to expose their abilities, they can't be wrong...
Unexpectedly, the field mouse nodded without much hesitation: "So you already know...Okay, let me show you."
As he said that, he took out a mobile phone from his trouser pocket. The surface of the mobile phone was made of a cheap plastic shell and looked very fake. The field mouse clicked on the phone a few times, and then turned the screen to the three of them. The screen displayed
There is a call interface, and the caller is actually 110.
"This mobile phone is my power. 110 is the only number I can call currently. If I am attacked, as long as I dial 110, within 5 to 10 seconds, all attacks will not be effective on me...
Of course, the ability is activated much faster than it is now." The field mouse looked a little timid and asked: "Is this okay?"
While Lin Sanjiu was frowning and thinking, Mather next to her took the first step forward and looked back at her. "I think this is enough, right Xiaojiu?"
Then, she stretched out a hand towards the field mouse and smiled: "We will help each other from now on."
