Chapter 165 Our village chief is the most hospitable!
On both sides of the street, grass and trees intertwined to create a green and desolate scene.
They grow wantonly in a world without people, as if they are telling a forgotten sorrow.
Cheng Long, who flashed quietly on the street, couldn't help but frowned when he saw the desolation in front of him.
"What the hell is this place?"
"Why is there no one?"
As he thought, a majestic tsunami-like consciousness poured out in all directions.
In an instant, everyone and everything within a radius of ten miles could be seen.
This desolate and dilapidated city is actually not empty of people, but rather dormant in dark corners. These people, who can be called "people" for the time being, are all naked and wearing tattered clothes, and they look like zombies.
Their breathing rate is extremely high, causing them to breathe extremely quickly, as if they are suffering from some kind of disease. They may suffocate to death at any time due to gas inversion and being unable to take a breath.
"It turned out to be hidden in the house. No wonder there is no one on the street."
Cheng Long discovered that these zombie-like people were gathering in dark corners in large groups, and the title of a movie instantly appeared in his mind.
——"I am a legend"!
"It can't be so bad. If you come to the world of Night Demon, there will be no fun at all!"
Cheng Long sighed and walked carelessly on the empty streets. The surroundings were desolate, with only weeds and trees growing tenaciously, and he felt a speechless loneliness in his heart.
Suddenly——
He stopped suddenly.
"If I remember correctly, Nefer, the male protagonist in the world of Night Demon, successfully developed an antidote vaccine at the end of the film, which can restore Night Demon's sanity and transform him into a new human being."
"This is a great merit!"
"Neff seems to live in Manhattan, I have to go there quickly and get involved..."
Cheng Long couldn't help but embark on a second dungeon journey because he missed the customs of another world. After he had a goal, he felt like he had been given a shot of blood, and he couldn't help but be excited.
But it’s understandable.
Help Nefer develop an antidote vaccine, cure the remaining instinctual night demons, restore their sanity, and turn them into new humans with strength, speed, and physique far superior to ordinary people, and they will surely gain a lot of merit.
This is much better than killing people and killing monsters.
"Since the night demons have the opportunity to transform into new humans, wouldn't I be killing innocent people indiscriminately if I kill them now?"
"Hey~~ Why are you thinking so much? Just don't take the initiative to provoke the night demons. Those night demons who dare to provoke you will be killed without mercy."
Cheng Long now is not an indecisive person.
As long as he doesn't take the initiative to hunt down the Night Demon, there is no such thing as being contaminated with karma.
In fact, it’s not a big problem if you occasionally get some karma.
After accumulating so much merit, why can’t I squander it squandering it?
……
"No way!"
“Why are all the billboards in Chinese? Isn’t this Chinatown?”
After a while, Cheng Long, who used his spiritual consciousness to search for survivors from time to time, suddenly noticed that the billboards on both sides of the street were all in Chinese, and his whole body went numb.
He hadn't paid attention to these details before, and the person who turned into a night demon looked more like a zombie, and he didn't observe carefully.
It was not until this moment that Cheng Long realized that the place where he landed was not North America, but the country of China on the other side of the ocean.
"It's making trouble!"
"I am here to gain merit, and I am not going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. Do I need to arrange this far away?"
The more Cheng Long thought about it, the angrier he became. If he had arrived in Manhattan, New York, three years after the Night Stalker virus broke out, Nefer would have already developed a vaccine.
But what if he does?
The only option was to rush to the dock, pick a ship that could cross the ocean, prepare all the fuel, and rush to Manhattan as far as possible. If not, kill a few of the Night Stalkers before leaving.
You've come here, but if you don't leave a few mummies behind, wouldn't it be in vain?
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, a shipping container suddenly fell onto the street.
After opening the door.
A hard-core off-road vehicle suddenly came into view.
Behind the car, there are a dazzling array of daily necessities, piled together in boxes upon boxes. Among these daily necessities, there are also five motorcycles of different styles mixed in.
"It's up to you."
There were abandoned vehicles everywhere on the street, making it unsuitable for off-road vehicles, so Cheng Long chose a motorcycle instead.
Tightening the accelerator, speeding along the deserted streets, looking at the unique city scenery, Mr. Cheng, who was depressed because the place he arrived was too far away, gradually felt healed.
In the world of Night Demon that has been dormant for who knows how many years, there is no industrial pollution or all kinds of man-made garbage. Even in the middle of the city, the air is fresh.
Unfortunately, the aura of the Night Demon World is very weak, far less abundant than that of the Hong Kong Comprehensive World.
Relying on his nerve reaction speed, which is several times faster than that of a cat, no matter how bad the road conditions are ahead, Cheng Long can cross at a high speed of 150 miles.
Soon, he drove out of the deserted city and into the suburbs.
About twenty minutes later.
A village appeared ahead, and the vegetable fields on the roadside were actually full of fruits and vegetables.
Purple eggplants, red peppers, yellow corns, various colors are intertwined together, like a colorful picture. Every fruit and vegetable is full and full of vitality. This is obviously not natural growth, but artificially cultivated food.
The majestic consciousness came out... Sure enough, there were not only survivors in this village, but also more than a dozen recently born babies, and several young and beautiful mothers, sitting on stools nursing babies.
A dozen and a half-year-old children were chasing and playing in the fields behind the village. Their laughter and laughter echoed in this bleak and silent world of night demons, giving people an extremely strong sense of separation.
When he first watched the movie "I Am Legend", Cheng Long's biggest feeling was loneliness.
One person and one dog live in a deserted city with hidden dangers everywhere. The loneliness of one person in the world can drive people crazy.
Whenever night falls, the protagonist has to rush home and cover the doors and windows with thick iron plates, so as not to make any sound.
Only a very small number of people who become night demons after being infected with the virus can regain their sanity. Most night demons are ferocious beasts with no distinction between good and evil. After dark, the whole world becomes their hunting ground, and the city becomes The night devil has a share of the credit for being so desolate.
But...
The scene of peace and tranquility, carefree children, and happy young mothers with milk babies is just the surface of this village.
Under the exploration of Cheng Long's majestic spiritual consciousness, the evil of human nature under the darkness has nowhere to hide.
In the center of the village, there are three Zigzag-shaped residential buildings hidden. They are surrounded by courtyard walls more than six meters high. They are covered with ceramic tiles inside and outside. It is extremely difficult to climb with bare hands.
Of course, these are not the main points.
The point is, one of the villas actually contained dozens of naked women wearing anklets, and every one of them was scarred. There were also dozens of skinny men, locked in iron cages like chickens and ducks waiting to be slaughtered.
In the other two residential buildings, there was another scene.
The men eat large chunks of meat and drink heavily, while the women are topless and nestled in the arms of each man. From the dull expressions of the women, it can be seen that they have long been accustomed to it.
It is also worth mentioning that there are no elderly people in this seemingly peaceful village.
Not even men over forty.
Whether they are men in cages or men enjoying themselves and drinking, they are all young and strong men in their twenties or thirties.
"Rumble..."
The roar of the track-level motorcycle attracted the attention of several mothers.
They walked out of the room in unison, holding their innocent children in their arms, and walked out of the house.
Cheng Long parked the car on the side of the road, looked at the mothers for a moment, and said with a smile: "Seeing you, I thought I was back before the disaster. Your village was quiet and peaceful, and everything was full of vitality. It was just like me. The Garden of Eden in Dreams”
"Since this is the Garden of Eden in your dream, then stay here. Our village chief is the most hospitable. As long as you are willing to contribute to our village, the village chief will definitely arrange shelter and food for you to make you feel at home. Warmth..." One of the young mothers with a round face and a big nutrition cabin responded with a smile.
She was still feeding the baby, not shying away from it at all.
"Is it really possible?" Cheng Long's eyes lit up.
The round-faced mother smiled and said: "Of course, many people in our village are like you and fled here. I am one of them."
"And me."
"Me too..."
The other two young mothers followed closely.
The three of them are all around 20 years old and look very immature.
"Then let the sisters lead the way. If it's suitable, I think I will stay." If the survivors of this village are united and dedicated to survival, Cheng Long may increase the accelerator and pass through the village.
But who told him to be a demon cultivator who cultivates merit!
If you encounter any injustice, you have to take care of it.
"Follow me!"
The pretty round-faced mother smiled at Cheng Long, but when she turned around, there was a trace of struggle in her eyes, which seemed to be unspeakable.
When they were halfway there, the round-faced mother saw that the other two people were not following her, so she immediately moved closer to Cheng Long and whispered: "Don't eat or drink water when you meet the village chief. If he invites you to stay, Next, you just pretend to agree, and then find an opportunity to leave. Don’t ask why, just do as I say if you want to survive.”
"What's your name?"
"They say don't ask..."
The round-faced mother didn't react for a moment. Halfway through, she realized that what Cheng Long asked was not why, but her name.
"My name is Yuanyuan..." Yuanyuan said as she walked: "I can't say too much. Remember, don't eat when you arrive at the village chief's house."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Cheng Long nodded.
It was obvious that this girl did not want to harm anyone, but was forced to lead the way for some reasons. Based on his guess, if Yuanyuan had behaved abnormally just now and was seen by the other two, she would probably be punished.
Giving advice in a place where no one is around is already Yuanyuan's limit.
When she arrived at the door of the village chief's house, she fed her child Yuanyuan, pulled up her collar, and then walked to a place similar to a security booth and said to the people inside: "Brother Niu, this is a survivor passing by our village. I brought him to see the village chief.”
"Is he the only one?"
"Yes, just one."
Being called Brother Niu's gatekeeper, he looked up and down and found that Cheng Long's skin was whiter than that of women, and his appearance was also handsome. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.
"Go in!"
Brother Niu opened a gate, revealing a corridor for one person to pass.
"Come here quickly."
Yuanyuan turned around and waved to Cheng Long.
