How could she have so much confidence in her own judgment that she dared to rush headlong into the haze that was so thick that it seemed impossible to tear it apart?
Why didn't you imitate the gift package before taking action? Is it too late to turn around now?
Countless regrets and fears seemed to be turned to a deafening volume in an instant. The impact made Lin Sanjiu's feet weak and she almost stumbled on the ground. She looked back and saw nothing but thick haze.
Can you see a little red shadow? It may be too late, she will be drowned alone and buried under this deep sea of lead-colored haze, Lin Sanjiu thought.
In the thick fog, something scurried across the ground, startling her, and she regained consciousness in a sudden breakout of cold sweat.
It seemed to be something like a mouse, and it ran away in the blink of an eye. Judging from the rustling noise, it sounded small, and soon it stopped moving. Lin Sanjiu took two heavy breaths, and checked and felt his body again.
Limbs - under the pressure of her will, her arms were hanging stiffly beside her legs, and her feet were not lifted into the air.
She couldn't muster up the courage to talk to "Teacher Yi" for a while. When a person is immersed in a thick haze that is almost blinding, it won't be long before the sense of direction, distance, and even the grasp of the flow of time begin to blur.
Lost. How far did she run from the beginning to now? Twenty meters, or one thousand meters?
In the worst-case scenario, the red brick wall may still be on the right hand side and continue to spread... There is only one way to confirm whether you are out of the range of the red brick wall.
Blow away the smoke haze again and take another look at the red brick wall.
Those cracks and damages that seem natural at first glance, but if you look closely, you can see that there are human figures with heads raised and waving hands, eyes wandering, and funny postures... one after another, spreading out like a long dragon, perhaps hundreds of them.
.It is best not to look at them carefully; as soon as you confirm that the red wall is still there, quickly turn around and continue running.
Lin Sanjiu suddenly trembled when he thought of this, and found that the [Tornado Whip] was once again in his hand.
She hesitated for a moment. As long as she blew through the smoke, she would be sure that she would no longer be followed by the human figures on the red wall...
"Yi, Teacher Yi?" Lin Sanjiu forced herself to shout.
There was no sound at all in my head.
Sometimes, she really wondered if the haze here had followed the corners of her eyes, squeezed into the gaps between her eyelids and eyeballs, and penetrated into her head, thus covering Teacher Yi without a trace.
Lin Sanjiu gritted her teeth, retracted the [Tornado Whip], and took a big step forward.
"Teacher Yi?" she called again.
"...There is someone in front of me," the female figure on the red brick wall paused for a moment before replying carefully.
The meaning of this sentence has not yet been fully digested and understood by Lin Sanjiu's brain. Her body has already reacted first - cold sweat and pores suddenly burst out, and the muscles all over her body were tense. She raised her hands.
A vortex of air was thrown out, and a "Who?" was stuck in his throat.
The haze was blown away by the airflow. I don't know how many layers of lead mist were washed away, and then a vague, round black shadow gradually emerged - the back of a human head.
The body below the head was completely soaked in thick fog. Lin Sanjiu could only see a section of neck connected to the bottom of the head. The voice in the head of the woman with the red brick wall suddenly seemed excited and said: "There is also
Well, look to the right."
She slowly turned her head.
Indeed, in front of her right, the dark shadow of another head also appeared; the head half-twisted its neck, revealing a small half of its flat and swollen lead-gray profile, and was staring silently from the corner of its eyes.
she.
In the long silence, Lin Sanjiu realized belatedly that the man could no longer move.
The vortex of air roared from above and dispersed the smoke haze. As more and more lead haze faded, she could see more and more clearly: not only the front and right front, but in fact, there were countless black skull-shaped heads.
Shadows emerged from the lead mist of the receding tide, high and low, in twos and threes, with bodies standing under the heads, blocking the road ahead of Lin Sanjiu.
Some of the black shadows looked up at the sky, some looked down at the ground, and some, like the head on the right front, half-twisted their heads, as if spying on the people coming behind. Although the arms of the black shadows were raised stiffly
In mid-air, the legs were raised high, and the knees were bent exaggeratedly, but none of them were really moving: every black shadow stood frozen on the ground, motionless, as if they were a group of sculptures with different postures by modern artists.
Lin Sanjiu stepped closer to the silent crowd, holding her breath unconsciously.
She could see the few dark figures closest to her best: each of them should be a human being, with gray hair and dirty clothes, and their clothes were corroded and tattered - the skin was exposed from the clothes.
, it is no different from the color of lead haze.
These people were very close to each other, and their movements were exactly the same. They all had their waists bent and their knees raised, just like characters sneaking forward in a shadow play. Lin Sanjiu noticed that they were all carrying the same style of clothes, which were so eroded that they could not be seen.
A colorful hiking bag.
...Wandering around the Cloud Coin Production and Circulation Bureau.

This line of writing is blurry, damaged and missing, but it echoes on different mountaineering bags, so it is not difficult to spell out the original content.
Lin Sanjiu stood for a few seconds in the dead silence, frozen but lively crowd. She found a small knife, and with a single stroke, she cut open one of the hiking bags; the man's body was slightly shaken by her force.
He pulled and shook for a moment before returning to his previous center of gravity, but some scraps of skin fell from his face in clusters like hair loss.
The things that fell out of the breach were obviously not protected much by the backpack, and were also corroded and violated to the point where they could not even recognize their original shape - one of the bags turned into fragments when it fell, and there were countless dark black fines.
It started to fly up and down, and was rolled up everywhere.
…It turns out that this working group has always been there.
"What can we do? This is the direction you want to go." The woman with the red brick wall in her mind seemed to be half-heartedly gloating about the misfortune. She whispered, "It seems you can only go through this group of people."
Let’s go ahead.”
Lin Sanjiu swallowed her dry throat.
She lowered her head slightly and ducked under the raised arms of a frozen person - was he dead? Or what? Why was he in this state?
The further she walked forward, the denser the figures stood, as if this group of people had gathered here to listen to a concert, their bodies twisting and turning to the inaudible music; Lin Sanjiu tried not to touch anyone,
Seeing that the lead mist was closing again, it became increasingly difficult for her to walk.
Soon, the people who appeared around him could no longer be regarded as human beings. This place was originally an inaccessible place; whether it was the evolved ones who came down to complete the task, the fallen species, or the various creatures wandering in the haze, they were all found near the red brick wall.
They received unanimous and fair treatment - no matter what the original shape of their bodies was, when they walked forward stiffly and exaggeratedly along the red brick wall, they gradually became unable to walk.
The various black shadows that stopped were like snow that kept piling up, accumulating more and more in the silence.
Lin Sanjiu was still slowly and tentatively walking forward between the black shadows - she could no longer see anything clearly. Before taking each step, she had to test it with a stick before she could find an open space;
She also has no doubt that if she hadn't discovered it just now, she would have walked into this group of shadows and become one of them.
"Yi, Teacher Yi?" When she passed through the group of black shadows, she called out in a low voice.
After a brief silence, Teacher Yi's familiar and normal voice sounded in his mind: "We are finally out!"
