After lunch, Shao Zifeng greeted Mother Shao and walked out of the house under Qiqi's earnest gaze.

Shao's mother has also become used to him running out after eating in the past few days, nagging about safety and not caring too much.

When I walked to the street, I waved to a "one yuan", the so-called "one yuan" is a van that has the functions of both a bus and a taxi.

Longcheng County has no planned bus routes and no formal taxi company. Because these two types of vehicles are functional vehicles, they occasionally run the outer ring. Therefore, it is stipulated that functional vehicles must have a certain ability to defend against mutated creatures. For this reason, the function The price of the car is on the high side.

Longcheng County is located inland, with a small population and a well-known poverty-stricken county. Therefore, if there is no formal company willing to open bus lines and taxi services here, a large sum of money may be spent, and the cost will not be recovered for more than ten years.

In order to meet people's travel needs, this kind of "unary" using vans as a carrier came into being and is very popular.

The silver-white van stopped, and the driver poked his head out of the window.

The driver is a fine middle-aged man with dark skin, a slender face with sunglasses, a worn and faded gold chain around his neck, and his jagged yellow teeth are very eye-catching.

"Oh, the handsome guy is unhappy." Da Huang Ya waited for Shao Zifeng to get in the car, and pulled down his glasses to reveal a pair of small eyes.

Shao Zifeng buckled the seat belt and looked up at the man: "Yes, you don't often stay at home. You still don't know the people in this city."

The driver put on his glasses again and started the vehicle with a triumphant smile on his face: "I dare not say anything else, but in this three-acre area of ​​Longcheng, there are no people and things that I don't know."

It's just that he is too thin, and the folds around his eyes are about to reach his cheeks when he laughs.

"Since my brother said so, and I haven't come back for so long, what's new in Dragon City?" Shao Zifeng said Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.

"Well." The thin monkey driver thought for a while: "So many things happen every day, what kind of thing the handsome guy wants to hear."

"I'm more interested in anecdotes. Brother is well informed. Tell me?" Shao Zifeng did not hide, but directly said his thoughts.

"Hazard, then this is too much to go, our dragon city has a lot of strange things, it is said that when the ancient city was built, the dragon clan came here to find the dragon, the clan dragon knows it, that is for the yellow emperor..." It's exciting to mention this driver. He drove up and down every day, and occasionally when there were strangers, he would pull out these rumors of Dragon City and say it again. It can be said that he is not as good as the back of this story with his ID number.

Shao Zifeng rolled his eyes. He grew up here. He hadn’t heard the rumors about the old sesame seeds and rotten millet in Longcheng. He immediately interrupted: “Hey, brother, I’m also from Longcheng County, that’s right. I have rarely come back in the past two years. I want to hear if there are any new strange things."

"That's it." The driver didn't feel unpleasant, frowning Chen Si while driving.

After a while, he said, "I really remembered one thing. Recently I heard that Chengxi...

A strange thing happened over there, that is, where you got in the car, handsome, there was a widow and lone old man who died at home. "

Speaking of the driver, he paused, and seemed to be thinking about how to polish it before it became an anecdote. Then he continued: "The street management office received the news and opened the door... Tsk, it was a miserable one, and the old man was covered up all over his body. The gnawed flesh and blood of the mutant creature."

"Because of the uncertainty of the cause of death and the corpse being gnawed, the alien control office also intervened, but unfortunately nothing was found after a few days of investigation. The old man had no children, and in the end, the street management office paid for him to be cremated and buried. I thought that this incident would just pass away, but I never thought that weird things would continue to happen since then..."

Shao Zifeng listened attentively, for fear of missing any important clues.

Crunch.

The sound of tires rubbing against the ground sounded, and a huge thrust came. Shao Zifeng's body was instantly pushed forward, and when he reached the limit, he was pulled back by the seat belt, and his back slammed into the seat.

He was vigilant and looked around quickly.

I saw an old-style building outside the car window with four big dark red characters on it.

Department store.

"Handsome guy, here it is."

The driver, who was originally serious, instantly switched to a smiling face, turned his head and smiled and stretched out a hand: "Scan the code or cash."

Standing next to the department store, Shao Zifeng shook his head looking at the van that Juechen was leaving.

What is this all about.

...

Longcheng County Department Store stands on People's Square. This five-story building was once the pride of Longcheng people.

Unfortunately, over the past few decades, this old and dirty-looking department store is gradually forgotten by people. Many young people don't even know that there is such a place.

Shao Zifeng walked in after opening the curtain covered with black oil stains.

The first impression of entering the department store is that it is short, not that the building is short, but that the ceiling on the first floor is relatively low.

Not to mention that compared with those modern shopping malls, even the average home suites are higher than here.

The greasy door curtain was closed, and the entire space seemed to be isolated from the outside city. The lights in the department store were dim, and many counters were unoperated and covered with dust. Only a few were still open. UU看书www.uukanshu.com teller We are boring to play with mobile phones.

Because time is tight, Shao Zifeng has no time to hang out, so he walks directly to the deepest elevator.

"squeak"

Pressing the switch, the elevator doors plastered with small advertisements and mottled rust made a harsh rubbing sound, struggling to retreat, Shao Zifeng feared that the door would get stuck in the middle of the retreat.

Looking inside, this is a freight elevator with a single door, and the space is much larger than half of the elevator. A ceiling lamp with a lampshade was in poor contact and made a noise from time to time. The already dim light bulb was covered with a layer of dark oil, making it even more dim.

The elevator doors closed slowly with a frictional sound, losing the outside light source, and the lights in the elevator were basically negligible. There were small advertisements and mobile phone numbers stacked on the surrounding car walls,...

In such an environment, it is like a ghost painting.

Squeak.

There was the sound of rusty gears turning, and Shao Zifeng felt a moment of weightlessness, and the elevator began to sway slowly upwards.

Shao Zifeng mentioned his throat with a heart, this elevator is too unreliable.

The dull sound of the friction of gears and the sound of chain collisions was infinitely amplified in this small, silent space.

Shao Zifeng took a deep breath.

Luo Feng, it shouldn't hurt me... right?

After a long wait, the elevator finally stopped on the fifth floor. Shao Zifeng walked out of the elevator. Only then did he find that the entire fifth floor was completely dark except for a light on the elevator door.

The elevator doors closed again, and the sound of friction echoed on the fifth floor.

Listening to the echo in his ear, Shao Zifeng was basically sure that the entire fifth floor should be empty.

Looking at the time, there are still six minutes to half past two, if you wait...

Hmm... I'm really a little flustered.

Shao Zifeng stretched out his hand, cracks in the translucent space opened.
