Guangsha Pavilion is the largest shopping mall in Qingyang City.
With the Industrial Revolution and the significant advancement in production and construction technology, huge buildings were built one after another. People were surprised to find that the shops that originally filled the entire street could actually be placed in one building.
As a result, the first department stores appeared.
And Guangsha Pavilion is such a place.
The seven-story building covers a vast area, with carved beams and painted tiles, and is magnificent. The reinforced concrete building is decorated with vermilion paint and layers of glazed tiles. It has both classical and post-modern aesthetics. It is a symbol full of oriental charm. sexual architecture.
This building is not far from the West City Gate and can be reached by walking more than 100 meters along the West Main Road.
When Zhang Lang came to Qingyang City before, he would always go to Guangsha Pavilion to bring some small gifts to Xiaoya. At first they were small jewelry, but later Xiaoya hinted to him that she couldn't express her appreciation for Zhang Lang's aesthetics, so later, it was Changed to rare snacks that can’t be bought in town...
Looking at this familiar building that he had been to several times, Zhang Lang seemed to have returned to that bustling and noisy era.
The Guangsha Pavilion used to be decorated with lights and colorful decorations, with red coats and green coats, and was packed with customers all year round. But now, this huge building has been covered with huge spider webs and looks dilapidated and dirty.
This is where the survivors once lived. Although he knew that there was little hope that they were still alive, Zhang Lang decided to go in and find out.
Even if there is a one in 10,000 chance that there is still a human being alive, it is a great comfort to him!
Zhang Lang held Huxiao tightly and walked slowly into Guangsha Pavilion.
The lobby on the first floor should have been a vegetable market before, with all kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables, aquatic products, meat and eggs, snacks and snacks. Of course, if you don’t like the first floor being too dirty and noisy, you can go straight to the second floor from the buildings on both sides of the entrance to see the products on other floors.
Zhang Lang walked lightly and walked around the first floor.
The fruits, vegetables and meat here have basically disappeared. Various stalls were turned over and overturned. Zhang Lang guessed that they were not eaten by the previous survivors... at least not all of them.
Because the number of survivors should be very small, most of these fresh ingredients will rot before they are eaten. Nine times out of ten, it was eaten by various monsters that invaded here...
When we came to the snack area, all the melon seeds, halva, and dried fruit preserves sealed in oil paper were also swept away. The stalls were relatively neat, and most likely they were the work of survivors.
At the end of the day when production is stagnant, this easy-to-preserve food is even more important.
Nothing was found on the first floor. It seems logical that if you want to survive in the apocalypse, you must either dig a hole in the ground or find a higher point. In short, you must find a relatively hidden and easy-to-defend place. This kind of hall with doors on all sides, anyone can come in and walk around twice. It is really not easy. Suitable for refuge.
The elevator must have been out of use. Zhang Lang came to a side door and climbed up the stairs on both sides. When he reached the turning platform, the road was blocked by various debris.
Zhang Lang walked around in a circle, doing the same for every door and staircase. It seemed that starting from the second floor was the area where the survivors could move.
Zhang Lang remembered that each floor of Guangsha Pavilion sells different products. The first floor sells various ingredients, the second floor mainly sells various daily commodities, the third floor sells clothing, shoes and hats, and the fourth floor is a restaurant. , the fifth floor is for high-end clothes, such as furs, silks, and some time-honored luxury shoes and hats, which are more upscale than the third floor. On the sixth floor, there are all kinds of jewelry. Usually rich people will buy these two floors. shopping.
As for the seventh floor, it is not an area open to the public. It is the office area of the boss of Guangsha Pavilion. If you have any problems, you can report them here and specialized staff will handle them.
Because the entire Guangsha Pavilion is similar to the shape of a tower, and the area becomes smaller as you go up, so by the seventh floor, the area is less than half of the first floor. Zhang Lang has never been to it, so he doesn't know what it is like inside.
It was no longer possible to take the stairs to the second floor. Zhang Lang came outside and jumped lightly to the second floor.
The elevating racks in this kind of shopping mall are all above six meters, and the platform on the second floor is at least seven or eight meters away from the ground, but for Zhang Lang now, this is only a height that can be reached by tiptoeing.
He quietly climbed over the railing on the second floor. The doors and windows here were basically nailed shut with wooden boards from the inside. Zhang Lang raised his foot and kicked open a door, destroying the lock and the wooden boards nailed inside. .
As the broken wooden door collapsed, a burst of dust poured out from the door. Zhang Lang walked in regardless, making the wooden door creak. When the dust settled and he saw the scene inside through the sunlight coming in from outside, Zhang Lang couldn't help but look surprised despite his determination.
Compared to the first floor, this place is truly completely different!
The original shops and stalls are no longer visible, and even the ceiling no longer exists. The entire second floor, third floor, fourth floor, and maybe even the fifth floor, the floors have been destroyed by unknown forces, except for the penetration. The pillars of the building, the middle part of Guangsha Pavilion, which was originally divided into several floors, have been opened up into a huge space dozens of meters high!
And from the dim light coming through the gaps in the doors and windows on each floor, it can be seen that everywhere here is covered with thick cobwebs!
Different from the spider silk spun by small bugs that can be seen everywhere, the spider silk here is at least as thick as wool. When twisted into one thread, it is even thicker than a human thigh! These spider silks of different thicknesses criss-cross between the six-meter-high ceiling and floor, like a huge three-dimensional maze woven with spider silk! On the top floor of the maze, you can vaguely see a huge cocoon made of dense spider webs. It is that thing that occupies the space that should have been the sixth and seventh floors.
There, there is a high probability that it is the monster recorded in the diary. That guy regards this place as a nest, sleeping in a cocoon here. I don't know if he is simply resting or preparing to evolve to the next stage.
Already, completely occupied...
Zhang Lang gritted his teeth. It seemed that the possibility of anyone here was almost non-existent.
Looking at the shocking spider silk, Zhang Lang felt frustrated. He didn't notice at all that behind him, a huge monster slowly fell down silently.
Zhang Lang turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as he turned around, a huge black shadow pounced on him with its teeth and claws bared!
That's a spider bigger than a human!
Caught off guard, Zhang Lang was knocked down by the spider. The eight spider legs as thick as human arms tightly imprisoned him. The two fangs, which were as big as bananas, secreted venom and stabbed Zhang Lang in the face!
Snapped!
Zhang Lang stretched out his left hand, clamped the two fangs with the tiger's mouth and the gap between the middle finger and the ring finger. With a flick of his wrist, he actually twisted the two fangs off with a click!
The spider monster trembled in pain, Zhang Lang hit it with his knee and kicked it away from him!
The big spider fell onto its back, its eight claws fluttering rapidly, and turned itself over. But before it could fight back, there was a bang, and its head and half of its chest exploded in the roar of the tiger's gun. .
Is this the spider that the guy wrote about in his diary? It seems smaller than expected?
Before Zhang Lang had time to analyze, he suddenly heard rustling noises coming from all directions in the mall. Eyes like red lights lit up from the darkness, and they all looked at Zhang Lang in groups of eight.
Here, it turns out to be a spider nest! Are these all the children of that big spider?
Realizing this, Zhang Lang immediately turned around and rushed towards the door he destroyed! But a few balls of mucus shot out and smeared the door to death! Zhang Lang frowned, raised his hand and turned it into a blade, slicing through it. The layers of spider silk broke, but more were wrapped around his hand, sticky and layered, not so easy to destroy!
At this time, five or six big spiders had crawled out from the darkness, rushing towards Zhang Lang along the spider threads extending in all directions!
Zhang Lang rubbed his hands and relied on the ability of the magic hand to get rid of the spider silk on them. He rolled to avoid these big spiders, but at the same time, he also went deep into the mall, and more spiders stared at the red eight. With only one eye, they surrounded him.
"The rules of hunting for reincarnators are to fight in an environment you are familiar with!"
Zhang Lang squinted his eyes and recounted his experience gained from life and death fights, then shook his head: "But these guys are not reincarnators, and I am not here to hunt... Just let me indulge. …”
As he spoke, Zhang Lang inserted the huge Tiger Roar revolver into his waist, unloaded the rifle from his back, and with a click, he skillfully pulled the bolt to load the gun, his eyes extremely determined.
"Who let you damn beasts eat the last of my compatriots!"
