Chapter 512: Behind Him (15)
There is big news in the survivor town.
That is the position of the old mayor, which was passed to his wife after his death.
At first, everyone found it incredible.
After all, who doesn’t know what kind of old lady old Susan is? Although I heard that she has regained her consciousness, she always feels unreliable.
However, the God Attendant said that old Susan recovered due to God's protection, and even gained extremely powerful abilities.
The people in the town had to believe in God when they saw that old lady Susan was indeed back to normal and even smarter than before. She could also raise her hand to rescue people who were trapped under the inexplicably collapsed house. power.
“It is indeed God. He cares for us. It seems that he will take us out of the cold night soon.”
“God, please, let us live. Let's..."
At this time they were in the market, which was a rare gathering place for them besides the church.
Humans are still social animals, and even if the cold nights block most communication, they will still find ways to create opportunities for themselves.
A group of people were chatting at the entrance of the market while purchasing supplies.
“But don’t you think more and more people have died recently?”
“I don’t think there are that many dead people, but more and more people are missing! ”
“I suspect that the church...can’t guard against strange things.”
"Yeah, because of this, I specially installed those evil-proof mirrors. I feel that they are indeed useful." After that, there will be no dead people in the house.”
“It sounds like I’m going to pretend to be one too!”
“The one I’m looking for is Ms. Huo, over there in the woods.”
"However, I still feel very strange..." someone said hesitantly, "I feel that although there are no dead people, many weird things are still happening..."
At this time, a woman stood up and said in a disdainful tone: "You should stop talking nonsense. Only those who are not pious enough will be killed by monsters."
"The Divine Attendant also said, this is Because there are sins in them, God has taken away his protection and is cleaning up the believers who are not pure enough. "So even if you install evil mirrors, it is useless, you still have to keep your heart pure and be absolutely pious." br>
After hearing this, everyone said that they still had to install an evil mirror.
Who can guarantee that he is pious enough?
"Is that evil-proof mirror you mentioned really useful?" A voice with a drake voice sounded weakly from the side.
Everyone looked and saw Andy, the youngest son of the Anderson family.
"I think it's useful. At least there are fewer dead people in my family." Someone said directly, "What's wrong? Do you feel the need too?"
"Yes...I I feel like more and more strange things are happening..." Andy nodded, looking very uneasy. He said, "I feel like there are other things at home. Sometimes my books are clearly placed in the cabinet, but suddenly all of them fall out..."
"And my parents are still here. I have slept all day and all night, so I had to go out to buy food by myself.”
The more he spoke, the more flustered he looked. He looked very bad. His hair had not been cleaned for an unknown period of time and was stuck to his face covered with freckles.
"It's normal to be sleepy in winter. You just rely too much on your parents."
"Maybe you have some sin in your body!" Another person added, "My wife was like this before. After thinking about it, I sent her to the church for purification, and now she is fine. "Speaking of which, isn't your sister a priest? Why don't you go to her for purification?" Someone even suggested Andy.
Unexpectedly, when Andy heard the word "sister", he immediately seemed to be electrocuted. He shook his head violently, his eyes full of fear and panic.
His reaction only made everyone more suspicious, and they unanimously decided to send him to the church.
Kuang Bowen watched from a distance, watching a large group of weird-looking people twisting together, and then pushing someone who looked completely deformed out of the market. He slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at To the two-headed man in front of me.
"Did you pick these things up from outside?" The man's head said doubtfully, "I heard that the exploration team has not come back recently."
"Of course I There are channels to collect it from outside the town. Although it is not an exploration team, it is not fake, isn't it?" Kuang Bowen said calmly.
The other female head nodded and said: "It is indeed a good thing. Let me tell you, a blog boy like you will definitely not dare to go out, and you don't know who is so powerful and has found so many good things. ”
They picked up a dirty rubber doll from the stall. The doll was wearing a small blue dress and had blond hair that was knotted. It could transform into a big truck with a slight twist.
“Look at this truck doll. I loved playing with it when I was a kid. I never thought I would see it again. How about buying one for my daughter?”
The man used his other hand to play with it. Dial: "This thing can't be eaten or worn, so why buy it? It's a waste of money!"
As a result, a cry came from them, and they quickly opened their clothes to reveal a head hidden in their chest.
It was a little girl, crying and clamoring for this doll. In desperation, they bought it anyway, stuffed the truck doll into their clothes, and the crying finally stopped.
The two heads breathed a sigh of relief, and then zipped up their clothes.
Then I picked a few more items from the stall that were rare in the town, and then left.
"Master Jin is indeed very powerful. He was able to find so many good things and made us a huge profit." Kuang Bowen suddenly said.
I don’t know where the person he is speaking to is.
At this time, there was a muffled sound from below the stall, and a head popped out from the pile of rags on the stall, saying regretfully: "Unfortunately, there is a limit."
Kuang Bowen knew what Professor Jin said There is a limit to what can be found, so I can only smile bitterly: "Yes, we have to find a way quickly."
As he was talking, he saw a father and daughter walking into the market.
Professor Jin immediately hid his head.
Kuang Bowen then waved enthusiastically: "Ling...Mr. Lindell, do you want to buy anything today?"
Frank Lindell nodded and looked very nervous. He walked over and looked around his stall, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He picked up a worn-out compass, checked it, and found that it could still be used normally, so he asked, "How can I sell this?"
He picked up a multifunctional knife as well. , opened it and saw that there were indeed many practical gadgets with different functions, and asked: "Where is this?"
"Thirty for the compass, one hundred and seventy for the multifunctional knife."
< br>“So expensive!” Frank frowned, “Since we are neighbors, can it be cheaper?”
Kuang Bowen glanced at Ling Yuke, who was rolling his eyes beside him, and hesitated.
Taking advantage of this slight hesitation, Frank successfully used one hundred and seventy to get the knife, which also came with a compass.
"Mr. Lindell, are you ready to go out on an adventure?" Kuang Bowen suddenly asked.
Frank smiled and said casually: "Just curious."
Then he took his daughter away.
"The reason is so bad..." Professor Jin's voice came faintly from under the stall.
"It's a pity that when he really leaves, he will know..." Kuang Bowen whispered to himself.
......
"Remember, never tell anyone that we are leaving!" Frank warned his daughter Claire in a low voice as he walked away, with obvious nervousness in his tone.
"But the things we bought...it looks like we are going to run away!" Ling Yuke said bluntly.
"Can't admit it! Never admit it!"
Frank emphasized his tone and looked around, his heart beating like a drum, as if he was afraid that the increasingly weird townspeople around him would hear something.
He lowered his head and walked in a hurry, trying to avoid looking at the residents passing by on the street.
When we walked a little further, we couldn't see anyone on the street. We could only see the windows of the houses on both sides, with faces pressed against the glass, as if they were trying hard to squeeze out of the glass and stick it in front of them.
Fortunately, he was almost at the door of the house. Frank took out the key, his hands trembling slightly, and he glanced left and right, as if he was worried that something would follow.
"We must get out of here." Frank said firmly to his daughter again, "And we must take your mother with us."
Ling Yuke suddenly looked complicated and hesitated to speak.
The key was inserted into the keyhole, and with a click, the door opened.
The warmth in the room hits your face, and the aroma of cooking meat fills the air.
On the dining table, a plate of steaming barbecue is exuding an alluring aroma.
A woman came out of the kitchen with another plate of food in her hands and a smile on her face.
"Frank, Claire, you are back!"
Frank walked over very naturally, kissed the woman's face, and said: "My dear, I'm back and bought some Something.”
He paused. , added in a low voice: "We can leave here soon."
"That's great!" The woman smiled happily, turned to Ling Yuke, who had been standing at the door, and said, "Silly boy, Why are you still standing? Go wash your hands!”
Ling Yuke looked at "Frank" hugging this woman covered with corpses, hesitated again, and turned around to wash her hands.
