Chapter 171 The Empty City
In the city shrouded in boundless darkness, a magical scene is taking place:
The two beams of lights of an off-road vehicle pierced the darkness, and the engine roared, spreading in the cold and empty city.
Behind the off-road vehicle, followed by nearly twenty people wearing ancient brocade robes, sable furs, and cloaks, holding knives and swords.
They exhaled hot air from their mouths and noses, and ran to follow behind the off-road vehicle.
ran from the south of the city to the north of the city, and from the north to the east of the city.
Running for nearly fifty kilometers all the way, none of them was panting very much, and they could even draw their swords to deal with the mutant creatures that came to attack.
On the road, they could vaguely hear their discussions.
"My mother, what is this place? Why are the houses so tall?"
"Scary, just now Mr. Chen's headlights illuminated a towering tall building in the distance. At first I thought it was a sky-reaching monster standing there. I was so frightened that I almost fell down. When I took a closer look, I realized it was a hundred-foot-tall building! "
"There are so many houses in this place, did many people live there before? Why is there no one now?"
"All dead."
"The road here is too wide. Thirty carriages can walk side by side without any problem."
"The iron bridge here is also very long. It spans the river and is several miles long. The big iron chains that are tightly stretched are scary to look at."
There are many surprises in the discussion.
It can be seen that this group of people with swords and swords is seeing a modern big city for the first time, and they are all new to everything.
"Crack, click... creak!"
The off-road vehicle with anti-skid chains stopped, and a tall, sunny man jumped out of the vehicle. A group of people following the vehicle immediately surrounded him and stood in front of him respectfully waiting.
"How about it?"
Chen Ji smiled at them and said, "How do you feel about seeing this world along the way?"
The group of people from the rivers and lakes were amazed along the way. Through the headlights of their cars, they finally saw clearly what kind of world they had come to.
"Brother Chen, is this the heaven where immortals live?"
Wang Shaodang couldn't help but said.
After running for dozens of miles, all he could see were tall buildings, and various shocking things came one after another, shocking his mind.
If it wasn't for Senior Brother Chen leading the way, Wang Shaodang would definitely suspect that he was in a dream, and what he saw and heard were all illusions.
"Eye-opening!"
Liu Sangu exclaimed.
People from all corners of the world nodded one after another, and words could no longer describe their feelings at the moment.
Zhou Wan got out of the car and took a closer look at these Jiang Hu people from the world of martial arts. They have a unique temperament, which is completely different from modern people.
Chen Ji smiled, walked around, checked carefully, then shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, I have to tell you a piece of news, and it's bad news."
"Mr. Chen, what news?"
Many Jianghu people suddenly became nervous.
The Qianyuan Demon Ancestor from the Nine Regions also frowned.
He could probably see that this group of people came from a place called Zhao Guo. It seemed that their strength was just like that when they were in Zhao Guo, they were very weak.
Of course, in this weird space, he and this group of people from the Zhao Kingdom are comparable in strength, at most he can defeat four or five of them.
"The bad news is, there's no one here."
Chen Ji looked at them, and said word by word: "Except for you people who have traveled here, none of the millions of people who should have lived here have disappeared!"
Liu Sangu and the others were stunned.
They guessed that there were originally many people here, after all, there are so many houses.
But don't know exactly what the bad news refers to, no one can't find the way back?
Chen Ji took Zhou Wan's hand and led her forward.
Wang Shaodang and others immediately followed, and Chu Nantian left a few people behind to guard the car, so as not to be damaged by monsters.
"where are we going?"
"Go and see the bomb shelter."
Chen Ji said.
When he was at Huang Yuwen's house before, he had a bad feeling that the car was still there, but Huang Yuwen's family was not in the house.
Afterwards, Chen Ji went to the stadium and several other settlements, and saw a person, and did not even see the traces of the settlements being excavated. The subway entrance of the settlement in the stadium was just a subway entrance, and no fortress was built.
Now he has come to the largest settlement in Haishi, and there is still no trace of construction.
Leading them out several hundred meters and finding the entrance of the air-raid shelter in the cave, Chen Ji finally gave up.
Turning his head and solemnly announced to them:
"There is indeed no one here!"
A group of Jianghu people looked at each other, Patriarch Qianyuan was silent for a moment, and asked him: "Mr. Chen, what if there is no one?"
"No one means that there is a lack of information in this world. If you want to find key places, you can only rely on you.
In addition, no one else exists, so you have to find a way to survive here! "
A group of people were in an uproar.
One after another restless, becoming extremely anxious and anxious.
They were able to endure discomfort and explore in the dark before because there was still some hope in their hearts, thinking that everything would be fine if they found the way back.
As a result, Mr. Chen drove them around the huge city with the lights on, but found nothing, not even a single person.
And Mr. Chen also said that they can only live here in the future? !
There is not even a piece of wood here, let alone other things. If they want to spend the rest of their lives here, they might as well just wipe their necks with a knife!
Even Wang Shaodang, who is rather calm, and Liu Sangu, who is cynical, both showed a dazed look at this moment.
"I'm not finished yet."
Chen Ji stopped them: "You find a way to survive here until you find a way to return to your world!"
"Brother Chen, how can I find it?" Wang Shaodang asked eagerly.
"Look for the abnormal place, think about how you got here, maybe you can go back."
Everyone calmed down.
Yaozu Qianyuan took out a few black fragments, handed them to Chen Ji and said, "I have fragments of the fairy gate here, please take a look at it, Mr. Chen."
Fairy Gate?
People in the surrounding rivers and lakes heard this and looked over one after another.
Chen Ji took a look at it, shook his head, and returned the fragments of the fairy gate to him: "I don't see anything for the time being, you put it away first, maybe it will be useful in the future."
Qianyuan Yaozu is silent.
After losing his power in the Nine Domains, he just felt his own fragility. No matter how strong his strength is, he is only limited to the Nine Domains. Outside the Nine Domains, he is nothing.
Chen Ji ignored the demon ancestor's complicated mood, took them back to the off-road vehicle, and continued to drive in a certain direction.
"where are we going?"
Zhou Wan asked softly.
She has already felt the cruelty of the doomsday.
In such a desolate and empty world, the most frightening thing is that there is no hope and no way out. People are completely trapped here and cannot get out of the current situation.
"Go to the launch base and take a look."
Chen Ji drove all the way forward.
First go to the place where the solar probe was launched, and after confirming that there is no one here, drive away from Haishi.
Originally wanted to go on the suburban expressway, but unexpectedly, the car had just driven a few hundred meters from the launch base, and bumped into something, making a bang, and the car stopped abruptly.
"what?"
"Bumped into what?"
The people from the rivers and lakes who followed the car surrounded them, but they all showed surprised expressions:
The road ahead suddenly disappeared, and even the lights couldn't get in!
"No way?"
