Ghost Animal Maker of the End Times

When Gao Sheng and his party traveled far to explore, they marked the way to prevent them from getting lost when they returned.It was He Rong who manipulated the metal that made the mark, so every fork they walked through had a small metal arrow protruding from the stone wall, and the arrow pointed to the direction they were going.

But now, they only need to walk in the direction of the arrow to return to the settlement.

However, when their team leader, Shi Lei with supernatural powers, announced the good news that "we will be there in half an hour", they heard human voices in the dark and silent cave.

It was a lot of people who gathered together and whispered, the voices gathered together, diffused through the echo of the cave, and finally reached their ears, like countless birds chirping, very noisy.

Several people stopped involuntarily.

Gao Sheng looked at his brother suspiciously: "What activities are going on in the settlement?"

Gauss said he was also at a loss: "I haven't heard from Boss Xie."

"Could they come to hunt like us?" Lin Ling guessed.

"Impossible!" The Gao brothers retorted at the same time.

Gao Sheng slapped his brother behind him, looked at Lin Ling, and emphasized word by word: "Boss Xie entrusted us to develop this road. It is impossible to arrange other people to come in."

"Besides, there are still a lot of roads to be developed. There are not enough manpower, and we are too busy. How can we send people to take the old road." Gao Si said with a crutch, pushing Gao Sheng away, and said with a smile.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, so what's going on?There are people in front, and there are quite a few people.

"Go and see."

After a long silence, the swordsman's slightly indifferent voice broke the silence, and at the same time, his footsteps walking very steadily and upright step by step sounded.

Several people looked at the back of the swordsman who had already walked to the front, shrugged their shoulders, and followed the swordsman's footsteps.

"I'm really impatient." Gauss complained.

Gao Sheng put his arms around Gauss's shoulders and smiled: "Come on, you don't know him yet? 'I just don't want to waste time waiting for such meaningless things'——every time I hear him say that, I feel sore."

The two brothers laughed heartlessly.

Li Aier glanced at them, and corrected Gauss' complaint in a cool tone: "Why don't you wonder why his ponytail doesn't shake when he walks?"

Gauss and Gao Sheng laughed even more out of breath after hearing this.

"Pomade? Mousse? Hahahaha..." Gauss burst out laughing, "We've suspected it for a long time, but they don't even know what these two things are..."

Gao Sheng wiped his tears: "People say that the sword is placed on a stable character, and it must be stable to every part of the body. Even walking must be stable, and the hair should not shake."

Li Aier squinted his eyes, looked at the back of the swordsman, and raised the corners of his lips: "I think what he said is very reasonable, I really don't understand what you are laughing at? It's the frog in the well pointing at the passing travelers and laughing, you The world in my eyes is definitely not as big as I see it, is that so? It’s really superficial.”

Gao Sheng stopped laughing, twitched the corners of his mouth, and whispered in Gauss' ear, "Where did you get this boy? This mouth is really poisonous."

Gauss patted the shoulder of the troubled brother emotionally. It felt so good to have someone accompany him to get shot this time.

However, the swordsman's footsteps stopped imperceptibly for a moment, and there was a faint sense of satisfaction on his indifferent and pale face.

Cautiously approached the source of the sound.

On the left side of the straight tunnel is a rushing underground river, and on the right side of the road is a huge sunken cave. At this moment, the cave is lit by a torch soaked in animal oil, and the flame flickers. The human figure reflected on the stone wall of the cave, like a fierce ghost with claws and claws.

There were about a hundred people in the cave, all of them lowered their heads and chatted together in a low voice. Their faces were pale, their expressions were fearful and desperate, and they were gloomy.After the identification of the four of Gauss, it was determined that most of the people in the cave were ordinary people in the settlement.

What happened to bring ordinary people from the settlements here?Affected by the gloomy atmosphere in the cave, several elderly people in the settlement looked at each other nervously, with a bad premonition gradually rising in their hearts.

——When they first established settlements, only when they decided to migrate to the underground world collectively, would they first transfer ordinary people down.

But obviously, when Gauss and the others left this morning, there was no news that the settlement was about to migrate.In other words, this decision should have been made by the settlement today in a hurry.Thinking deeper, it is not difficult to come to the conclusion: something happened in the settlement!

No longer hiding their bodies, a group of people strode into the cave, grabbed the supernatural being they knew, and asked seriously what happened.

Gao Sheng's return and the envoys they brought back gave the people who were shocked by the zombies a glimmer of hope out of despair: to go far away, with more companions.Together, there is greater strength!

But first of all, if you can escape this catastrophe.

Gauss and the others were naturally aware of the current crisis in the settlement. They were shocked and worried. After a hasty explanation, they stopped staying and rushed towards the exit of the underground cave.

For Yao Jianmin and Chu Chen, Shi Lei naturally suggested that these two people stay in the cave with the refugees and wait for them to come back, and these two people did not refuse.It's not that they are too indifferent, it's just that like Tian Yutian, they belong to the supernatural powers of the physical system with intellectual evolution, which is why they can become representatives of their respective settlements.

Since he went there, he was only dragged down by the protection of others, so it's better not to lose face and just stay behind and wait.

Gauss and the others accelerated their pace again and again, until they all ran wildly.

After the end of the world, everyone's home is destroyed.There are not many ties left for everyone.There may still be various unsatisfactory disadvantages in the settlement, but it has indeed become the concern of these people. In the cruel and desolate last days, people no longer feel at a loss, aimless and directionless, and let them With affiliation, they have a firm goal to work hard for, the belief to live, and even to protect something.

Whether the name Underground Forest sounds good or not, in their hearts, it is a star hanging in the darkness, and the light guides them in the direction they are going. That is hope.

While running in big strides, a faint light appeared in front of the cave, which was the exit!

At the exit, the height of the cave suddenly became shorter. A few people bent over and lowered their heads, and climbed up quickly, squinting their eyes, allowing their eyes, which had been in the dark for a long time, to adapt to the bright light outside.

Wiping away the physiological tears from the corners of their eyes stimulated by the light, the four members of the expedition team looked towards the direction of the settlement, but only saw a simple stone house, a dilapidated tent, but no familiar figure .

Their expressions were a bit complicated. On the way back, they had more or less fantasized about how they would meet their brothers when they came back, and how they would clap their hands to celebrate the successful journey, but they never imagined that they would meet their brothers when they came back. When I came back, I was faced with such a deserted and cruel scene.

"They're up there." Li Aier raised his head and looked above the rift valley. Although he couldn't see anyone from here, the breath in the wind was unmistakable. "The fight hasn't started yet, and there's no smell of blood."

The clenched heart relaxed slightly.

"Go, go up!" Shi Lei shouted loudly.

Li Aier still didn't say a word just now: the breath in the wind also told him that the number of zombies is many, many.

And what he didn't say, after a while, everyone who went up the rift felt it clearly and deeply-the zombie group lined up in the distance like a city wall, just the black cloud covering the top. The momentum directly and fiercely oppressed people, and the oppressive and heavy atmosphere immediately cast a haze on his heart, and he could no longer be optimistic.

"Thank you, Boss, they are over there!" Gauss pointed to one side. In fact, the supernatural beings waiting in line could be spotted at a glance on the unobstructed land.

And the change on their side obviously caught Xie Moxuan's attention, his sharp eagle-like eyes looked over here, and the cold storm brewing in his eyes suddenly turned into excitement and joy when he saw a few familiar faces.

Gao Sheng and the others had already strode over. Even though the atmosphere was oppressive and gloomy, they couldn't stop their surging emotions at the moment.

"Shi Lei, Gao Sheng, He Rong, Ling Qing." Xie Moxuan glanced at the people standing in front of him one by one, and for the first time, the color of water was faintly visible in his cold and sharp eyes.I had already made up my mind to abandon these brothers and leave here with the colony, but they were able to come back in a hurry. It's really... really great!

But there are fewer people.Are there only four of fifteen people left?Xie Moxuan clenched his fists silently, and only one of the four traveling teams came back... No, it would be great to be able to rush back today, even if there are only four of them...

"Thank you, Boss!" "Thank you, Brother!" The four of them stepped forward one after another, and they still had a lot to say. They encountered all kinds of dangers during the long journey, escaped from death countless times, and finally found another Everyone wants to spit and talk about the joy of the settlement.However, these words should be reserved for a certain night when you can chat and laugh to your heart's content, perhaps holding a torch around the bonfire, dancing and dancing under the admiring eyes of the brothers-in short, not saying it now.

Now, the first thing they have to face is the huge group of zombies on the opposite side.

"Why don't they attack?" Gao Sheng murmured.

"Psychological deterrence." Xie Moxuan put aside the turbulent emotions, and his eyes became cold again, "The mutants want to use this method to defeat us mentally. Or, they simply want to attack at night." But listen According to Xia Fei's description, the possibility of the mutant species playing psychological tactics is relatively high.

"Doesn't it know that we can slip away from the underground world?" Gauss was surprised.

Speaking of this, Xie Moxuan's tone also had a hint of relief: "I don't know." That's why they are sure to retreat - the premise is that the zombie group still does not choose to attack before they evacuate.

"When are we going to wait?" Gauss continued to ask. After thinking about it, he could understand that the reason why Xie Moxuan didn't lead the existing personnel to evacuate was because he wanted to wait for the team that entered the underground hunting early this morning to return.

"Another hour." Xie Moxuan said decisively, "After one hour, all the staff will retreat."

an hour?A few people stood under the slanting sunlight, watching the horrific and huge group of zombies from a distance, and experienced for the first time that a new species appeared in this world, terrifying and cruel, and its population was far larger than that of human beings.

far away from the settlement.

"The sun is about to set." Ji Xiong dragged Xia Fei far behind Zhang Heshan, muttering, "Brother Zhang, can we go back before dark?"

Xia Fei looked at the big light bulb beside him that disturbed him and harassed the geese, and narrowed his eyes: "How can Heshan hear you with such a loud voice? You have to ask someone nearby."

"He really can't hear it?" Ji Xiong smiled and confirmed with a little excitement.

Xia Fei glanced at Zhang Heshan who was walking in front, and Xu Yi who was silently following Zhang Heshan not far away, and suddenly understood what Ji Xiong was up to.

"Speak. I'm listening." He squinted lazily, his handsome face was covered with a layer of soft gold in the afterglow of the setting sun, no matter which direction he looked at it, it was beautiful like a warm color The picture scroll, "What happened to them?"

Ji Xiong laughed, feeling a sense of joy that he could finally release after holding it back for a long time: "It's like this..."

——When the three of them were resting in the underground cave.

Zhang Heshan and Ji Xiong's abilities finally recovered, and the three got up, planning to leave.

At this moment, Zhang Heshan suddenly asked Xu Yi in the dark.

He asked, "What did you do to me, Xu Yi?"

Xu Yi was flustered for a moment, then regained his composure. After carefully observing Zhang Heshan's expression, he admitted: "I did something. But I can't say what I did."

Zhang Heshan did not continue to ask, but just stood there and said to himself: "A few days ago, my mind was in a mess. I don't know what happened to me. I am no longer soft-hearted like before. I can simply say to others 'I don't want to do those things', and I am not afraid of injuries, blood, or death."

"I remember who I was before. I know who I am now. I hate who I was, but I know that I would never like what I am now. Me." He spoke clearly and calmly, "But which one is the real me? Will the current me suddenly disappear like it suddenly appeared? I don't know, can you tell me?"

Listening to his words, Xu Yi's eyes gradually became complicated, guilt, pity, and intolerance... However, more emotions were mixed together, making it impossible to distinguish.

He just said softly: "Probably not."

Zhang Heshan nodded: "That's good. I don't want to disappear, and I don't want to change back to my original form." Because if he changes back to his original form, the original him will definitely resist his reappearance now, just like him This is the same as resisting the original self.

He doesn't want to disappear.

Even if he knew that he appeared in this world because of Xu Yidong's hands and feet, he didn't want to disappear.

"Thank you." He thanked Xu Yi.

Xu Yi's eyes widened for a moment, stared at him for a while, then closed his eyes feebly, and said in a weak voice, "You're welcome." Who is this thanking person?Is it the simple, honest, soft-hearted Zhang Heshan whom I first met?

He actually thanked him...

He actually thanked him!

Xu Yi felt as if he had overturned the condiments, and the five flavors were mixed. The only thing that was certain was that he would not be happy no matter what.

……

sunset.

Xu Yi walked behind Zhang Heshan, his eyes couldn't help but always fell on the man's generous back.

He just kept thinking, does that "thank you" mean that his choice is correct?If it were the original Zhang Heshan, would you thank him for this incident?

Behind him, Ji Xiong, who was following him from afar, was pestering Xia Fei and asked: "What was the me before? Xiao Feifei, do you know? Brother Zhang, is he a schizophrenic?"

Xia Fei just smiled and said nothing, his long and narrow eyes reflected the rose red of the sunset, which was beyond all beauty.

At the same time, the underground world was once full of crystal nuclei by the pool.

A zombie stood by the pool, its blood-red eyes fixedly staring at the empty pool bottom, after a while, it raised its head, its curly hair fell behind its head, revealing a pale and gloomy face, howling angrily Through the cave, echoed for a long time.
