mirage master

"A mirage?" I said, "Is that the mirage I thought it was?!"

The old man said: "That's right, I guess you must have seen a very illusory scene before you fainted."

I thought about it: yes, I vaguely remember seeing a huge red-lacquered wooden door, could that be the entrance?

The old man continued: "Is it a door? What you see is the entrance of a mirage. Anyone who sees this door will definitely come to this world."

"What the hell is this world?" I asked.

"This is a world without civilization. To put it simply, it is the opposite of our original world. There is no order, no rules, and only blood. The only thing that can keep you alive here is violence." The old man glanced at me. , sneered: "People like you will be beaten to death within three days."

I looked at my body and laughed bitterly. I also know that I am fat, but don't look at me as fat, I am still very flexible. At least it is no problem for me to escape.

The old man took another puff of cigarette and continued: "In this world, the territory is divided into six regions, and each region is managed by a city lord. No one can disobey him, and no one can beat him. The city lord is that The king of this area, if you want to live here, you must have enough self-protection ability to avoid the troubles you will find everywhere in the future."

"If that's the case, won't there be a fight between their city lords?" I asked.

The old man looked at me and said: "There is a dark area at the junction of each area. Not everyone can pass through this dark area. Some people can only live in the same place for the rest of their lives, unless you are skilled enough, or have high People help each other, under such circumstances, how can there be fighting between regions."

I nodded to show my understanding, and continued to ask: "Then how can I return to the original world?"

Unexpectedly, the old man snorted coldly and said, "You still want to go back? There are people who come and go here, like I have been here for almost half my life, and I have never heard of anyone returning to the original world."

Hearing what the old man said, I suddenly felt flustered. In such a dangerous world, how can I survive as a fat man? !It is said that fat people are born optimists, it seems that I am going to break this law.

After finishing speaking, the old man went back to the house. Before leaving, he told me that after dawn, we can go to the city on the other side of the bridge to have a look. Only after seeing it can we really understand what kind of world we are in.

I sat on the stone bench and thought for a long time, no matter what, I must go back, this place does not belong to me at all, my family is still waiting for me, how sad they would be if they found out that I was gone, so I packed up my mood , secretly cheering myself up, and set off to the city.

The night passed, the sun rose, and the blazing sunlight shone on the earth, making people irritated.It was another day, I woke up under the bridge hole, three days had passed since talking to the old man.In the past three days, I can't describe my thrilling experience. Everything that happened in this world has subverted my world view, and I finally realized that this place and my previous world are two different worlds.

That day I left the old man and went to the city alone. It was a very "messy" place, and depressive and terrifying graffiti could be seen everywhere. Those weird red colors must not be ordinary paints, because the city is not only filled with red fog , but also full of the smell of blood.The garbage cans on both sides of the road are not filled with garbage, but all kinds of disgusting stumps and broken arms.As soon as I stepped here, I felt that what the old man said was right. If I didn't have the ability to protect myself, I would become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered within three days.

The whole city seems to be in a massacre forever. Some weak people can only obey the command of the strong in order to survive. They lie motionless in the corner. Only when they meet weaker people, they will rush to rob and kill irrationally. To get gold coins in exchange for food.

I lived in hiding in this city for three days, and gradually understood the appearance of this city. This place is divided into two parts, one above ground and one underground. The real city is hidden underground, and there is the real underground slaughterhouse. .And going to that place is not so easy, the entrance fee is fifty gold coins, so I plan to find a way to get gold coins outside first, and then slowly find the way back.

In this way, I walked around in hiding in the city. Because of a momentary soft-heartedness, I bravely saved a little boy.
