Chapter 1822 Ghost Town (3)

The strange wind went in the direction the young man was walking.

I followed slowly and heard the sound of toys coming from the front again.

Dong Dong Qiang, Dong Dong Qiang...

With a snap, the sound stopped abruptly. Apparently the young man violently destroyed the toy.

I followed from a distance and didn't need to take the risk to check. Just by listening to the sound, I could confirm that this happened several times.

No matter how the young man behaves or how forcefully he destroys the toy, it will come back intact again.

Dong dong clang... clang clang clang...

The young man seemed to have changed his approach. He no longer struggled with the toy and allowed it to follow him.

He walked around the town, waiting for new discoveries.

I also had to follow him around the town. By walking like this, he and I almost walked through the entire town.

This place is not too big, with over a hundred houses, but it is very crowded. They are all small buildings with two or three floors. From an architectural point of view, there are differences between slums and ordinary residences, as well as a small commercial area and municipal management area. I saw the sign of the bar, which was very simple and straightforward, just a logo with the image of a wine glass. I also saw a building with a police badge hanging on it, which should be the police station. The building next to the police station looks like other government departments. The layout of the houses and the remaining decoration and furniture are different from ordinary people's houses.

After walking around for a while, the young man seemed tired, so he found a dry fountain in the center of the town and sat on the stone edge.

In the center of the fountain, there is a stone sculpture. It looks like an incomplete humanoid sculpture, but no matter how I look at it, I feel that there is something wrong with that sculpture.

It's not that there's a weird smell on it, but the outline of the sculpture looks like a human being, and it's incompatible with the surrounding town buildings.

I thought of many movies and photos I had seen in the past. These Western towns are basically similar. Fountain sculptures are also common things. It's just that such a decoration in such a small place is a bit beyond my expectation. Moreover, that sculpture... is also very different from similar sculptures in my impression.

The biggest difference is that there is no body curve.

This kind of Western sculptures mostly feature nude figures, revealing body curves. I have seen the sculptures exhibited at Minqinglai. Stone sculptures can create the soft texture of the human body. The body curves of those sculptured figures probably do not conform to the more extreme modern aesthetics, but the sculptures themselves are amazing.

And this sculpture...

Boom clang clang!

The toy moved slowly to the young man's feet and hit the stone edge of the fountain. After standing still for a while, it stopped as if the battery was exhausted.

The young man looked sideways at the toy.

Wow!

The fountain suddenly started to operate, and there was the sound of water.

The young man was startled, jumped up, and turned to look at the fountain.

I hurriedly hid and passed through the buildings, trying to get behind him.

Boom clang clang! Bang, bang, bang!

The toy moved again.

The blending of the two sounds gives people a strange feeling.

"Ah!"

I suddenly heard the young man yelling in panic and stopped walking through the wall.

I was in a house now. When I turned my head, I saw the walls with peeling skin.

There is a painting hanging on the wall, but the content of the painting can no longer be seen clearly.

I estimated the distance, quickly flew up, and moved as quickly as possible.

"Ahhhhh!" The young man cried out more desperately.

My soul has passed through the roof and seen the fountain and the young man. The front of the fountain sculpture was also revealed in front of me at this time.

That appearance is exactly that young man!

This is what I feel is inconsistent! The young man's clothes have been restored, but this style is definitely not the style of Western sculptures hundreds of years ago!

However, I didn't see the front of the fountain. How could the young man not see it either? He obviously walked past the fountain and sat down in front of it...coincidence? Or was there a change in the middle?

The sculpture moves and captures the young man's body. He struggled, but seemed unable to resist the force.

Shitou's hand tightened and squeezed the young man's body into a straight line.

The young man's screams were deafening. He coughed up blood.

The toy was beating gongs and drums and spinning in circles. The three faces of the toy had lively expressions of joy.

The blood vomited by the young man and the blood flowing from the cracks in the stone hands fell into the fountain pool.

Blood also flowed from the sculpture's mouth.

The pool was filled with blood.

I saw cracks appearing on the sculpture. The young man did not wait passively for death, but activated his abilities. However, the difference in strength and physical hardness between the two is too great. One is a mortal body, and the other is a strange stone sculpture.

The young man gradually became sluggish and his head drooped.

Just die like this?

i feel unbelievable

Wandering and following for such a long time, just waiting for the young man to come to the fountain?

This isn't quite right...

The fountain sculpture lets go.

The young man's body fell into the pool.

I saw his body sinking, as if the pool was a bottomless pit. His body completely sank into the pool and was covered in blood.

The fountain is still running. Debris fell from the sculpture, like an insect emerging from a cocoon. The appearance of the young man in the sculpture changed, turning into the naked male and female figures in my impression. The man and woman looked sad and frightened, hugging each other and staring at each other, making it difficult for people to understand the meaning of this sculpture. The outlet of the fountain is the mouth of the two people. Both of them raised their heads, and the water pressure from the fountain outlet was not low, causing the spray of clear water to cross the heads of the man and woman and fall behind them. This look looks even weirder and makes people feel disgusting.

The clear water fell, replacing the bloody water in the pool. The crystal clear pool allows people to see the depth at a glance. There was no body of the young man in the pool.

Boom clang clang! Bang, bang, bang!

The toy started playing again.

This time, it spun around, and the facial features on the three heads changed.

I was surprised to see that the three faces turned into the faces of young people. The three faces had three expressions: sadness, anger, and fear.

With this head on his head, the toy spun around a few times and then walked forward.

I immediately followed him, still hiding my figure.

If this was Toy Spirit territory, my hiding would be useless, but for the other things in this space, I should be able to escape their notice.

The toy went straight forward, with a clear goal, out of the town and into the forest.

This made me, who was following along, have to stop.

Boom, boom, clang! Bang! Boom clang clang clang!

The sound faded away and was gradually covered by the sound of wind in the woods. That figure will also disappear into the forest.

I looked back at the town, gritted my teeth, and followed the only clue I had found so far into the forest.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang

The sound stops.

I looked around and couldn't find the bright red toy figure in the dim forest.

Lost you?

Or was he led into a trap?

I increased my vigilance and walked around in the woods for a while, but I didn't find any toys and I wasn't attacked.

I flew high, flew out of the forest, and looked down from a high altitude.

I didn't find anything... The town is very close. The other places are exactly the same as the last time I flew up to the sky and looked out.

“Ahhhhh——”

I turned my head suddenly and looked towards the town.

Screams...is this someone coming in again, someone being attacked again?

Good night everyone~
