38. Burn, burn
Two buses collided at the intersection, and the bodies were squeezed and deformed, with burnt marks all over.
With these two cars as the center, many cars, ambulances, and police cars were like sharks following the smell of blood, surrounding the two colliding buses, squeezing and piling up layer by layer, forming a huge steel ruin.
"I can't escape it after all..."
Su Wu dropped the phone in his hand, and the phone fell on the headless corpse at his feet, with messages constantly flashing on the screen.
"Xiao Naofu invites you to join Boyu's third working group."
"Wang Zhiyou invites you..."
"Huang Zhicheng invites you..."
This phone belonged to the headless corpse on the ground,
but at this time, the phone was constantly flashing invitations to join the group from Su Wu's social account.
He had never met the corpse at his feet, but the other party logged into his social account.
In this way, the cause cannot be attributed to black technology such as "virus" and "account stealing Trojan", but the ghost of the corpse has this ability.
——Use mobile phones as surveillance cameras to closely monitor Su Wu's whereabouts.
If Su Wu was in an uninhabited mountain area, the strange ability of the corpse ghost would not work at all.
But he is now in a prosperous urban area.
It is densely populated.
In a city where almost everyone has a mobile phone, it is impossible for him to avoid the surveillance of the corpse ghost!
Jiang Yingying also noticed the content in the phone. She suddenly realized that the steel ruins in front of her were probably the strange external manifestation that had been chasing Su Wu.
"Should we go forward?" She said worriedly.
Su Wu smiled, turned his head and looked behind him, and said, "Do you think we still have a way out?"
The black Cruze behind him was surrounded by gray fog, and only the front of the car with the headlights on was still clear, but the body behind it had been swallowed by the gray fog.
Just now, the road behind him was still lit with street lights, and there was no trace of fog.
But in just a moment, a huge change occurred.
This change undoubtedly told Su Wu and the others that they had no way back.
"Keep going."
Looking at Jiang Yingying, whose shoulders were shaking slightly, Su Wu sighed and said, "Just treat this as a game."
He said the same words as the last time he simulated seeing Jiang Yingying.
Jiang Yingying looked up at him, then lowered her head and held the emergency can, followed Su Wu in small steps, and stretched out her little hand to grab the hem of Su Wu's clothes.
The two walked and climbed among the car ruins.
After spending seven or eight minutes, they finally climbed over the steel ruins that lay across the road.
But climbing over the ruins did not mean that they were safe.
On the contrary, the game had just begun.
Gray fog lingered here.
The street lights on both sides of the road extended straight forward, and the dark yellow lights made the fog more hazy.
The cold wind flew past the skin.
The whistling wind sounded like a ghost crying.
As a gust of cold wind swept by, the candle in Su Wu's hand burned down one-third of its volume in an instant.
All the scenes were exactly the same as when he first entered the area covered by the evil spirits of the zombies.
Without any hesitation, he placed the box on his back on the ground and took out all the candles and lit them one by one.
Then he handed a few candles to Jiang Yingying and said to her: "Take the candles and walk forward. Every three or five steps away, put a candle on the ground."
A candle can only illuminate a range of four or three or five steps.
Connect the candles into a line and walk within the range of the candlelight. If the zombies chase into the area covered by the candlelight, they will be fixed.
"Okay." Jiang Yingying knew that Su Wu's candle had a magical power. She held the candle and walked straight forward according to Su Wu's instructions.
Every three or five steps away, put a candle on the ground.
Behind her, Su Wu held the candles and replenished the candles that burned out quickly under the cold wind.
That cold wind will chase people and will not cover all areas.
Therefore, as long as Su Wu followed Jiang Yingying and replenished the candlelight, the candles would resume normal burning afterwards and would not burn out faster.
The candles were connected in a straight line.
The orange flames resisted the invasion of the gray fog and illuminated the area of three or five steps along the way.
In front, the corpse named Wang Zhiyou walked out of the gray fog, staring at Su Wu who walked in front of Jiang Yingying with blood-red eyes, and asked sternly: "Why didn't you go to work?!"
Half of Wang Zhiyou's corpse's head was deflated, and only one leg was left on the ground.
But it still walked very steadily.
Jiang Yingying was frightened to stop when she saw this terrifying corpse walking towards her, holding the emergency can tightly, at a loss.
"Dingdangdangdangdang——"
At this time, Su Wu held the emperor bell on his neck with his left hand and shook it suddenly.
In the sound of the emperor bell, Wang Zhiyou's speed suddenly slowed down, like a robot with rusty joints.
"Don't worry about it, just keep going!"
He spoke loudly to Jiang Yingying behind him.
At the same time, he took a big step forward.
Jiang Yingying was called back to her lost thoughts by his shouting, and hurriedly followed him, taking turns with him to place candles on the street.
The line of fire formed by the candles continued to extend forward,
and corpses continued to walk out of the gray fog and ran towards Su Wu and Jiang Yingying.
"Why didn't you go to work?"
"Why didn't you go to work?"
The voices of men and women gathered into a tide, constantly impacting the minds of Su Wu and Jiang Yingying.
The last candle was squatted on the street.
There were still street lights in front of them, forming a long line, extending forward, with no end.
The key to getting out of the area covered by the zombies is not how far you go forward - so, the key point is still - these zombies?
Su Wu turned and looked back.
The broken and incomplete corpses had blocked the way.
They walked in various strange postures.
Every time they walked into the range of the candlelight one after another, the candle would burn faster and burn out in just two or three seconds.
The candlelight gradually extinguished, from far to near.
The zombies slowly closed the distance with Su Wu and Jiang Yingying.
The zombies, which exuded a foul smell of rotten and burnt flesh, were no more than ten meters away from Su Wu and Jiang Yingying.
Jiang Yingying leaned against Su Wu tightly, and asked with a trembling voice: "Will we die here?"
Su Wu looked down at her pale little face, and he hesitated for a moment.
Then he shook his head: "No."
"We won't die here."
Dingdangdangdangdang!
The Emperor's Bell rang!
Corpses dropped their broken limbs one after another, and even shattered themselves completely under the influence of the bell.
Their broken flesh and blood corpses piled up into deformed "people" one by one, with faces without any traces of brokenness, and climbed up again, joined the corpse tide, and walked towards Su Wu.
The dark clouds pressed down on the city and the city was about to be destroyed!
Gulp, gulp!
Su Wu's body made a sound like tearing flesh and tendons,
and a dark arm grew out from his right armpit.
