The four rifle birds came and went as fast as they came, but Ma Tao threw his hand away and shot them down with a volley of bullets, causing them to fall to the ground and sparkle.
While Ma Tao was packing up the rifle bird, Xiao Jinzi ran to the wooden box and opened it.
"Damn! I thought I had something good. It's just a pair of rag shoes, in a small size."
The disappointed Xiao Jinzi took out the pair of cloth shoes, looked at them, and said with a depressed look.
"Keep it. Shoes are not cheap in this world. There are many barefoot ones. Besides, this is a new pair. Take it back and sell it or give it to anyone who can wear it. Don't give it to me."
Ma Tao removed the chip G from the four rifle birds on the ground one by one. It was less than 30G. It was really rubbish. He looked back at the pair of cloth shoes held by Xiao Jinzi and didn't care that this kid took the initiative to open the box. Something, he said with a smile.
"That's right! Go back and show An Ruo if she can wear it."
After being reminded by Ma Tao, Xiao Jinzi proudly put the pair of shoes into his backpack.
Sister Han didn't care about their messy affairs at all, nor did she care about what was in the box. She had already gone to the stairs to observe. If she hadn't been waiting for Ma Tao and the others, this woman would have gone upstairs long ago.
After leaving the room, Ma Tao glanced at the locked white steel door again. His consciousness told him that there must be something inside, but if he couldn't get in, everything would be in vain.
"What? You still want to study that lock? With such a thick wall and such a strong steel door, even if you blow it up with a hand grenade, it will be enough to blow up less than a dozen of them."
Xiao Jinzi pointed at the wall stacks that were nearly 20 centimeters thick in this room and then knocked twice on the white steel door.
"Tell me...what could be in here? Could it be an alien?"
Ma Tao squinted and stared at the keyhole on the door.
"Anything is possible, but it can't be an alien anyway. Being locked up here, Daluo Jinxian will starve to death."
Xiao Jinzi raised his lips and joked to himself.
Ma Tao was also stunned by what he said. When he thought about it carefully, what he said did make sense. Looking at the dust on the white steel door, it looked like no one had opened it for a long time. There was absolutely no way there was anything alive. , what could that be? What needs to be hidden in such a solid place?
With this question in his head, Ma Tao thought about it for a moment, and suddenly a question that had been mentioned popped up in his mind.
The almighty key! ! Could there be a master key there? ! But shouldn’t the omnipotent key be in Kacharu’s hands? Who wouldn’t carry such an important thing close to their body?
Everyone couldn't figure out what was going on here, and the door couldn't be opened. Ma Tao stopped thinking about it, said "Let's go" and went to meet Sister Han.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
When he met Sister Han, Ma Tao suddenly felt embarrassed when he saw how she was carefully guarding the stairs and thinking that they had made her wait for so long.
Sister Han glanced back at him and without saying anything, she started to walk cautiously towards the fourth floor with the semi-automatic rifle in her hand.
I don’t know how she did it. The cloth shoes of Ma Tao and Ma Tao made more or less noise when they walked on the stairs, but the long leather boots of this woman actually didn’t make any noise. Looking at the people walking in front, Sister Han is like a proud hunting wild cat, calm, calm, graceful, unhurried but always ready. Thinking about how she and Xiao Jinzi were thinking about the cheapness of cloth shoes just now, who is it? It is clear at a glance who is a major and who is a part-timer. There is no comparison at all. If Sister Han discovered the pair of cloth shoes by herself, she might not even consider whether they can use them. As long as they can fit in them, for the sake of living, they must take them all away. It’s really that my group has always lived a very privileged life. In this world, bounty hunters without chariots are the real hunters.
At this moment, Sister Han inadvertently taught Ma Tao a real lesson, and made Ma Tao understand why she rarely spoke after entering the building. For bounty hunters, being able to survive in dangerous situations The best hunters are those who hide themselves in places. Thinking of this, Ma Tao also began to deliberately restrain himself from speaking in such places.
Maybe taking Sister Han out isn't such a bad thing.
Soon, the three people went up to the fourth floor and eliminated several waves of annoying rifle birds. The attack of this thing did not pose any threat to the three people now. The monsters that killed people were the most annoying, but the three people cleared them quickly.
The layout of this floor is still the same. There are also two rooms. One room only has a large wardrobe. The things in the wardrobe have become rotten and hairy, and they are no longer what they look like. I don’t know what they originally contained. This room There is nothing else in the house.
As for the other room, that's a bit interesting. The entrance, which is where the door is, was blocked by a pile of heavy bookcases and standing cabinets. Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi came forward to try it out, but they were severely blocked. They were so tight that they pressed one against the other, and there was no way there could even be a gap removed.
"No, this can't be done~"
Xiao Jinzi, whose face turned red from exerting all the effort, exerted all his strength to suck the breast, but to no avail, he couldn't lift it.
"never mind"
Ma Tao also gave up, looked at the blocked door and shook his head.
"Who piled all the cabinets here!"
Xiao Jinzi gasped, quickly took out some water from his bag, took two big sips, and then handed it to Ma Tao.
"It doesn't look like it was put here randomly..."
Ma Tao didn't drink the water after taking it. He was not thirsty yet, so he handed it to Sister Han. Sister Han said you were welcome, took it and took a few sips.
People in this world are not so particular about men and women. It is normal to drink from the same bowl of water and eat from the same bowl of rice. If you eat and drink some, it is good. Who cares about so much? If you can hold on to the final bottom line, it is not bad. Zhen.
"Did you notice it too?"
After Sister Han drank the water, she directly returned it to Xiao Jinzi and continued, "These cabinets were crushed one by one from the inside to prevent them from entering."
"Sister, you found out a long time ago. Why didn't you tell me? It made me work as a coolie for so long. It's very tiring."
Xiao Jinzi put on a bitter look and took the water.
"That's right, from the outside, there's no way you can move these cabinets."
Ma Tao touched his chin and nodded, agreeing with Sister Han's statement.
"Is the guy who blocked us outside sick? He's not so strong. Let me blow him up with a grenade."
As Xiao Jinzi spoke, he took out a grenade and was about to pull the safety button.
"Wait a minute, the people blocking here are not blocking us. After all, they don't know we are coming. Moreover, these cabinets have been blocking here for a long time, and there is so much dust. I think they are blocking here. In order to resist something terrible, otherwise there would be no need to go to such trouble to do this."
Sister Han gave the most reasonable explanation.
"makes sense"
Ma Tao also agrees with this statement.
"Let's go on up. The answer should be upstairs. After all, the people inside always have to find a way out."
This floor is like this, there is nothing there, Sister Han looked at the two of them and said.
As soon as I reached the halfway point of the stairs to the fifth floor, I first smelled a putrid stench in my nose. This smell was simply terrible.
"What does it smell like?"
Xiao Jinzi covered his nose and asked with a frown.
"It's human"
Sister Han was already on guard when she first smelled the stench, and Ma Tao was even more so.
"Who is so stinky?"
Xiao Jinzi looked at her in surprise.
"Dead people, people who have been dead for a long time"
Sister Han's eyes were fixed on the stairs on the fifth floor. She pulled the gun with a click and moved closer with a standard gun-holding posture.
"die……"
Xiao Jinzi suddenly remembered, wasn't it? When a few of them were looking for a jeep in an abandoned factory by the sea, hadn't they smelled this smell on the top floor? This familiar smell suddenly became familiar. Then a monster name that was so terrifying that he would never forget it appeared in Xiao Jinzi's mind for the first time.
"War...war dogs..."
Thinking of this term, Xiao Jinzi's lips trembled a little.
"You finally remembered it"
Ma Tao patted his shoulder lightly, changed seats with him, stepped forward and stood side by side with Sister Han, and slowly approached the fifth floor.
I have smelled this stink several times. Anyway, nothing good happened every time, so I still have some immunity.
Finally, as he stepped onto the last staircase leading to the fifth floor, Ma Tao took a quick look at the door and then shrank back.
The corridor on the fifth floor was empty, with nothing in it, but the doors of the two rooms were open, and it was pitch black. I didn't know what was inside, but the smell that choked my nose was a bit stronger.
Ma Tao and Sister Han looked at each other, separated from each other, raised their guns and entered the fifth floor at the same time. The muzzles of their guns were immediately aimed at the two doors.
Xiao Jinzi in the back gritted his teeth and overcame the fear in his heart. He was not willing to let others look down on him, especially in front of Ma Tao. He drew his rifle, loaded the bullets, and rushed to the fifth floor.
Ma Tao and Sister Han looked back at him and saw his firm and clear eyes. Knowing that he had become a warrior again, they smiled in unison.
"Sister Han, be on alert, gold is following me, coming from room to room."
Ma Tao stretched out his hand to signal and whispered the instructions to everyone. They both nodded to show that they understood.
So, Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi cautiously approached the door of the first room, while Sister Han stared at the other door intently in case something rushed out.
Ma Tao took a deep breath and stretched out three fingers.
three
two
one
When Ma Tao withdrew his last finger, the two of them rushed into the house at the same time.
It was a false alarm. The room was full of tables, chairs and benches used for lectures, arranged neatly, as if they were waiting for people here to come and listen to the lecture again.
"Safety"
The two people who exited this room winked at Sister Han, and then slowly approached the next room.
Before they could reach the door, the strong smell of putrid corpses was already strong enough to make people sick. It was obvious that this room was the source of the smell in question.
Sister Han also followed and adjusted her breathing. The three of them looked at Ma Tao's fingers. As soon as the third finger was finished, they rushed in directly.
Sure enough, in this room, in addition to two wooden boxes that had been opened, there were also many dead bones and broken limbs on the ground. They were thrown everywhere. Flies and maggots were flying around the head that had turned into a skeleton and white bones. There were bloodstains everywhere, on the walls and on the floor, that had turned into dark brown.
"It's so disgusting..."
Xiao Jinzi looked at the ground where there was no place to stay and complained. On the other hand, Sister Han didn't care about this. It was time to walk and step on. For her, this scene was obviously used to it.
"Over there!"
The first time she entered the house, Sister Han discovered that there was a secret door that led to the next floor. It was a manhole cover-like place with a handle on the outside. The entrance and exit are very close. Even if there is no such handle, there is a manhole cover in this room. Isn't it very suspicious? The monsters have no IQ and will leave before finding anyone. They will not bother Bala's researchers to go there. Otherwise, the world would have been ruled by Noah's army of monsters.
The manhole cover was opened easily by Sister Han. It was not locked inside, and there was light. From the top, you could see that there were obvious traces of human life below. Domestic garbage was everywhere, and you could even see a corner of the carpet.
"Wait, I'll get off first"
Seeing Sister Han opening the manhole cover and about to go down, Ma Tao stretched out his hand to stop her.
"What, you don't trust me? Are you afraid I'm in danger?"
Sister Han glanced at the arm held by Ma Tao, then stared at his eyes for two seconds, then showed a charming smile, used her other hand to take Ma Tao's hand holding her arm, and placed it on Ma Tao's hand. For a moment of surprise, Tao didn't even use the ladder below, and went down with a slight jump.
"Holy shit! This crazy woman!"
Ma Tao bit his lip and cursed, and then heard a loud shout from Sister Han below.
"who are you!!"
Bang bang! !
The sound of gunshots sounded, and the hearts of the two men above trembled at the same time. Ma Tao at the entrance of the well jumped down without hesitation, followed closely by Xiao Jinzi.
After jumping down and getting used to the dim light, Ma Tao saw the handsome Sister Han wearing her over-the-knee boots, trampling a man under her feet with one long leg, and holding a semi-automatic rifle in one hand. He bent over and put the muzzle of the gun directly on the guy's head, making Ma Tao, who had just come down, look at him for a moment.
"Her Majesty the Queen..."
Also in a daze was Xiao Jinzi, but what this boy said was so appropriate. If he gave Sister Han a whip, wouldn't that be a typical example of Her Majesty the Queen?
"Excuse me, I really don't know where that guy lives. I really don't know... I don't know..."
The man who was stepped on by Sister Han with one leg was trembling all over. This position seemed to be extremely painful, but the man seemed to have no pain at all and didn't know how to complain.
"What's going on?"
Ma Tao took out a small flashlight from his bag and took a photo of that person. He was a good guy. He was unkempt. His messy hair probably hadn’t been washed for two years. His clothes were in tatters. He was so thin that he was just skin and bones. , and his eyes were distracted and he looked delirious.
"I don't know, this guy attacked me as soon as I came in."
Sister Han also saw his appearance clearly and knew that she had met a madman. Moreover, with his body type, he could easily be broken up with one punch. Even if two more people came, they would not pose a threat to her. He uncrossed his legs and let him go.
The man was released, got up, crawled and hid in a corner, muttering something unknown.
"What should I do? It looks like you've gone crazy?"
Xiao Jinzi took a look and asked.
"It's okay to be crazy, because what a crazy person can remember most in his life is how he went crazy."
Ma Tao replied with a slight smile.
"Okay? I don't see that you understand psychology. Then tell me how to make a madman tell you a story."
Sister Han looked around and found that there was no place to rest in the room. Everything was dirty. The smell of human excrement was mixed with the smell of corpses above. Not to mention destroying the sense of smell, the air was extremely uncomfortable.
"Yes, this is a problem."
How to make a madman tell a story, unless you are also crazy with him, but if you are not crazy together, then everything is in vain. Ma Tao began to pace in place, thinking about this thorny issue.
"There is actually a refrigerator here. Let me see what magic is there?"
As if he had discovered a new world, Xiao Jinzi opened the refrigerator lid.
"Forehead..."
Not only was it empty, it had even been torn down and nothing was left, just an empty shell.
"Yes! Refrigerator! Food!"
Yes, what could attract a hungry guy's attention more than letting him see food? Ma Tao, suddenly enlightened, quickly took out a piece of dry food from his bag.
"Hey! Hey! Look here! Look at this!"
Ma Tao shook a piece of dry food in his hand. Soon, this instinctive desire for food made this man focus his eyes.
"Want to eat? Tell me, what did you see? Tell me, and you can eat it. Tell me..."
Ma Tao is like a trafficker who kidnaps children, inducing him little by little.
In the end, this lunatic only had the piece of dry food in Ma Tao's hand in his eyes, and listened to Ma Tao's seductive voice in his ears.
"They...they...are all crazy...crazy, killing people...bugs...all turned into bugs...so many bugs, so many"
The madman took the bait.
"anything else?"
Ma Tao's information was very general and useful, but it was not enough.
"They're all dead...keys...dead...keys...no...don't kill me...no"
The madman blinked, as if recalling something particularly terrifying, he covered his head in pain and shook his head desperately.
"The key! Where is it? Tell me and you can eat it!"
Ma Tao knew that this madman was about to collapse, but he was unwilling to give in. But it was too late. The madman's subconscious did not want to recall this past at all. The brain's self-protection made it impossible for him to overcome his natural instinct of eating. This is the most important thing. The information was not revealed.
"Coming!! Coming!! They are coming!!"
Suddenly the lunatic's spirit was lifted up, and he quickly found a corner to hide. His eyes widened and he looked around in horror, but he did not dare to make a single sound.
"What's coming?"
Ma Tao was puzzled, but Xiao Jinzi thought about it for a moment, then closed his eyes and listened carefully, and his expression suddenly changed.
"No! Quick! Close the entrance!"
Almost as soon as Xiao Jinzi finished speaking, Sister Han, who was standing behind, kicked hard, stepped on the corner of the bed on one side, jumped up in two steps, stretched out her hand, and directly closed the entrance with the force of her falling body. , followed by...
Gujiguji......
Gujiguji......
The strange sound sounded again, and judging from the sound, it was coming from this direction.
Xiao Jinzi was still listening to the noise, but he suddenly turned around and looked at the madman curled up in the corner without saying a word in shock.
"What's wrong?"
Ma Tao saw Xiao Jinzi staring at the madman, and he must have discovered something.
"This man used to be a mechanic, and he was a very good one. No wonder he is the only one who can survive until now!!!"
