Zongman: I have really retired!

Densely packed rats swarmed out of the weird shadow. They ignored the weird wails and attacks and pounced upward like a tide.

Weird screamed in fear and howled in anger. The thorns on his body killed many rats, but the rats were obviously also enraged. They were also not afraid to bite his body with their sharp teeth. .

As strange dark black blood with a fishy smell spurted out, the rats became obviously even more crazy. Their teeth were like sharp blades, tearing apart the weird flesh easily, and then greedily sucked the rancid blood.

As more and more rats surged forward, the strange struggles began to become ineffective. The rats became even more arrogant as they enjoyed this rare meal.

Among the people present, Gao Ziming was the first one who couldn't stand it anymore. He closed his eyes tightly and didn't dare to look. The tip of his nose smelled rancid and sweet, a bit like the blood flowing from a rotting and smelly corpse. He suddenly thought of this. The muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he held his breath.

Xia Youjie also frowned slightly, his expression not quite right. It wasn't that he was afraid of this bloody scene, but that he also had some mysophobia after growing up next to Meng Shuxu.

However, Lin Fei and others were not affected at all. They even felt that it was too convenient for them not to take care of these rats because they were covered in blood. After all, the little water they brought was not enough for them to bathe.

After the strange death, the "refugee weird" present, except for the weird "family", all stayed away from them in silence, but Xia Youjie didn't know why, but he actually saw the calm or greedy emotions under their eyes. .

Xia Youjie felt that these strange things were different from the strange things outside...

"Female Weird" and the remaining two weirdos looked at them with hateful eyes. Xia Youjie's movements were too fast, and they had already lost a "family member" before they could react.

"Tell me which direction they went."

Xia Youjie looked down at the swaddling clothes in "Female Weird's" expressionlessly. The swaddling clothes wrapped around the child revealed a bright color that did not belong to this era between the child's neck - it was a piece of clothing even though it was stained with mud and dust. The floral fabric is still eye-catching.

"Female Weird" looked resentful, but the tall "Male Weird" next to him spoke: "I met them two days ago. They went west. If you want to find them, go early. If you are late, you won't be able to tell them apart."

He has some intelligence, but not a high IQ. He obviously thinks that Xia Youjie and others' bright clothes and strong bodies are obtained by eating "people". He is afraid of Xia Youjie and others, so he secretly urges them to leave.

Xia Youjie glanced at the "crowd" around him again, and there was a wordless silence.

The queue of "refugees" is so long that it can't end as far as the eye can see. But the people in the team were not human beings, but weird cannibals. Xia Youjie was worried about the people coming in ahead.

Two days, the flow of time in the ghost story is different from that in the outside world. It only took a few hours from the time they discovered it to the time they came in. Has it actually been two days for the person who came in by mistake before?

Xia Youjie didn't know how many people would die in these so-called two days. Didn't he mention the weirdness just now?

——If you go late, you won’t be able to share.

"Let's go, we have to hurry up."

Xia Youjie called a few people to hurry up. Although Gao Ziming was an adult, his physical fitness was undoubtedly the worst among the people. He couldn't bear it after walking for a few miles. Thanks to Xia Youjie's strange collection, he simply summoned a similar person. Yu Lu's weirdness carried Gao Ziming and followed him not far away.

"Brother, did you find something wrong? Or did you find the rules of this weird story?"

Even though Lin Fei was out of breath from the rush, he was still very alert. He undoubtedly knew Xia Youjie very well. When he noticed that Xia Youjie had changed from the laziness that he had when he first joined the ghost story, he keenly noticed that something was wrong.

"What kind of weird story do you think it is?"

Xia Youjie asked.

Just as Lin Fei was about to speak, Dong Yue was the first to grab the answer: "It should be a survival-type ghost story."

Jiang Hongyuan exclaimed: "Shouldn't it be mission-based? Didn't you mention that weird thing just now? Go to a place where you can survive. According to reality, shouldn't their target be Shaanxi Province?

Well, this is indeed a survival type. After all, I have to make it to Shaanxi Province alive. "

The description of kaidan is very broad, but the kaidan recognized by the magic world refers to the existence of large-scale replicas formed by the combination of multiple weird things.

According to Xia Youjie's understanding, weirdness is the existence of a single individual, while ghost stories are a collection of multiple weirdnesses.

But what is the difference between the existence of ghost stories and the demons under some cursed spirits?

(For example, the reformers transformed by real people and the cursed spirits controlled by Xia Youjie's cursed spirit manipulation skills are completely controlled by the subject and cannot disobey the subject's orders. But the weirdness in the ghost stories can be used in literary games or Violating the rules of ghost talk in various ways.)

Xia Youjie never understood why they were separated before. Couldn't they be called the same as the cursed spirits?

But when he really faced the weirdness in the ghost story, he realized that something was wrong. The ghost would not have such a clear mind.

"Lin Fei, do you know the relationship between strange stories and cursed spirits...?"

Xia Youjie hesitated for a long time but decided not to be ashamed to ask.

"This one? There is no difference. They are all things that can harm humans."

Lin Fei tilted his head, and then said slowly: "Anyway, he is the enemy of mankind, the guy who wants to be eliminated!"

Xia Youjie felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Brother, if you are really curious, you can ask Uncle Meng. He knows a lot. In fact, when I was a child, I also thought about the difference between weirdness and ghost stories, but Uncle Meng said that it is better for me not to know. He said that the more I know, I will die. The faster."

Lin Fei felt goosebumps all over his body when he recalled the teasing and mocking smile Meng Shuxu showed him.

"Okay, let's skip this for now. Let's continue discussing this weird story." Xia Youjie sighed helplessly.

"Actually, the rules of this weird story are very simple. He has no such thing as rules at all.

After all, most people don't have as good conditions as we do, and they will most likely die regardless of whether there are rules or not. "

Xia Youjie felt a little sad. He now realized the malicious intent of the strange talk.

Even though Xia Youjie and the others are not nervous or anxious at all now, that's because they have enough to eat and drink and have the strength to protect themselves.

Because [Xia Youjie] in his previous life had a storage-type Cursed Spirit Ugly Treasure that was very convenient, so Xia Youjie followed suit and asked Meng Shuxu to pay attention to the weirdness of the space system in various places, and specially found one that could store things. Weird.

The only shortcoming is that this weirdo is humanoid, and it seems to have the label of an old mother. After being subdued by Xia Youjie, it always looks at him with a kind look like a child who is ignorant.

……

Choubao calls [Xia Youjie] his mother, and then Xia Youjie really finds himself another weird "mother"...

Ah, this... what kind of hellish joke is this...

But thanks to this "weird mother", Xia Youjie no longer has to worry about luggage.

What Gao Ziming gave Wei just now was the gift Dong Yue was going to take home - a handful of ten bags of rice that he bought during the Double 11 promotion. Gao Ziming randomly found a rag bag from the pile of dead people. He took some rice as a bribe.

"I see, ordinary people can't carry a bunch of food with them when going out like Jie and still have such strong strength."

Dong Yue looked at Gao Ziming's face. She couldn't guarantee how many ordinary people would survive in the two days in the ghost story.

"I'm prepared...at least...at least I can save a few."

(You don’t need to understand weird stories and weird settings. These are things that only the protagonist needs to know. Just like you don’t have to actually learn the theorems in mathematics to watch Xueba Wen. I wrote these settings because the protagonist’s subsequent plot needs it. Of course, if you have nothing to do and want to study it, just pretend I didn’t say anything.

Let me tell you about the settings of ghost stories and weirdness. Ordinary weirdness is another name for the curse spirit. Its characteristic is that it can be seen by ordinary people. It is the accumulation of negative emotions plus the soul fragments of various creatures (as long as creatures with feelings can Yes, including but not limited to humans), they not only target humans, but also target weird ones. (This is the law of survival of the weak in nature, and it is not just for the human race.)

The core of weirdness in Kaidan is the human soul, so the humanoid weirdos in Kaitan like to attack humans who are similar to them. (Because most people's deaths are related to other people. For example, sudden death while working overtime may be caused by not paying attention to your health, but it may also be caused by the company's working hours being too long.)

The setting that individuals from the outside world can become stronger by devouring their own kind is based on the fact that some animals in nature have the habit of cannibalism.

The setting that most of the weird stories made up of human beings become stronger by expanding their influence and territory also refers to the inertia of human beings who like to conquer land. (Who doesn’t want a territory of their own? And the bigger, the better.)

By the way, understanding these settings is actually of little use. Whether they are weird or weird, they are actually just the product of a certain final boss (this one can refer to the settings of Madoka) who wants mankind to develop faster. )
