Screaming Cycle

—WTF!

Ji Xuan only had time to let out a short exclamation in his heart, and he fell to the ground in a five-body throwing posture, and slid a full meter away with inertia.

He fell a little dazed, staggered to get up, only felt that his arms hurt fiercely.

But he didn't have time to care about his injury now. He picked up the fallen broomstick for the first time, and patted behind him without even looking.

"Wow!"

First, there was a scream from a man, followed by a roar with a very regional characteristic.

"You pan hama batch!"

The other party hurriedly set up Ji Lu's broom, "I'm blind with my old man? Can't I look at it?"

Ji Lu can only see clearly at this time that it was a young man who had just knocked him out.

The man seems to be about the second half of his twenties, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose and wide mouth, and his hair is straightened out. Although his temperament is somewhat local, he is undeniably a handsome guy who fits the traditional aesthetic definition.

He is about the same height as the Ji thrush, but the horizontal ratio is twice as wide as him. However, he is not fat, but strong. The coat is covered with a whole body of tendon flesh, and the elastic fabric is bulged, and the two pectoral muscles are almost ready. He broke the front of his T-shirt.

Ji Shu thinks that based on this person's size, he can practice wrestling.

"A dog, Lu Dongbin..."

The man held Ji Shu's broom in one hand, rubbed the slapped shoulder with the other hand, and said angrily: "I kindly pull you at you, and I will sweep you!"

Ji Lu had a teammate whose ancestral home was also in Sichuan and Chongqing. The two had a good relationship. They slept on the upper and lower bunks for two years, so that he had long been used to the dialect accent of his teammates, so he even guessed what the man said just now. , I still understand most of it.

From the other party's words, he at least learned that this person was not malicious, and he suddenly ran into him just now. In his own words, it seemed that he was also trying to "save him."

So Ji Lu took back the broomstick that was stuck on the man's head.

"Who are you?"

He looked at the muscular man in front of him warily.

"I am..."

The man only answered two words, and suddenly he jumped three feet high like a cat with its tail stomped on, "Hayo! This is not the time to say this!"

"There is—"

He turned around abruptly, his eyes widened, and he stared at the suit stacked by the door with a grim expression.

Then the sound stopped abruptly.

"You mean this?"

Ji Shu took two steps forward, picked up the gold coin next to the side pocket of the suit from the ground, and raised it to him, "This is just a coin."

The man's face showed obvious embarrassment, he raised his hand and scratched his cheek, "I just thought it was..."

He switched to Mandarin, but still had a clear Sichuan-Chongqing accent.

"Do you think it is the kind of dragonfly that burns people to ashes?"

Ji Lu took the conversation.

"Ah, your clothes..."

The man noticed that Ji Lu was dressed up tightly, and realized: "You have encountered that thing too, right?"

Ji Shu nodded with a serious expression.

"Let's stop talking here."

He raised his finger to the door of the Wal-Mart supermarket behind him, "Go ahead and talk about it."

&&&&&&&&&

Although Ji Lu doesn't know what happened in this city, it is obvious that all the changes happened very suddenly.

Because even though all the residents disappeared, everything in the city remained in order. Just like this supermarket, the revolving door was hidden. He stretched out his hand to push it and entered easily.

This reminded him of children's books such as "Ten Unsolved Mysteries of the World" that he had read when he was a child, which often contained two classic mystical themes, "ghost ship" or "unmanned village".

In these stories, the passengers on a boat or the villagers of a certain village suddenly disappear without warning. No one knows where they went. When people find the boat or the village, they will find that everything inside is still there. Some people live in it, and there are even two bites of bread and unfinished coffee on the dining table.

Ji Lu feels that the situation he is experiencing now is very similar to that described in the story. It is also an empty city, with disappeared residents, but the appearance of the city has not been destroyed, and it is shockingly complete.

"Not bad brother."

The man with a strong figure also followed.

As he looked around, he patted Ji Shun on the shoulder, "I can think of coming here to find supplies, it's amazing!"

Ji Lu was not bothered by this familiar attitude.

He raised his hand, showing his elbow.

When he fell just now, his arms were resting on the floor tiles covered with dust and sand, and the sleeves and skin of his elbows were scratched. "I want to change clothes first."

The man nodded and turned around again, and soon found the sign pointing to the clothing area on the second floor, "Come on, come on, let's go."

He tugged at the front of his T-shirt, "This dress is too small, I'll change it too."

The styles of the clothes sold by Wal-Mart are so popular that they are completely uncharacteristic, but Ji Shun and the strong man are not picky people. One person chose a long-sleeved hoodie and didn't even need to go to the dressing room, just strip off the old clothes. Replace the new one.

"What, you turned out to be a teacher?"

After listening to the muscular man's self-introduction, Ji Lu let out a surprise, "Why don't you say that I thought you were a fitness trainer!"

Hearing this, the strong man raised his eyebrows to look at Ji Shu, and replied unceremoniously, "I think you are so thin, you are actually a professional athlete, isn't it even more ridiculous?"

He called himself Mo Tiangen, but because the name was really shameful, he insisted that Ji Tuan call him "Big Gen Brother"-although Ji Tuan thought that "Da Gen" didn't sound any better than "Tian Gen". .

Mo Tiangen is 27 years old this year, a native of Shancheng who grew up like a fake, and works as a biology teacher in a local high school.

The two exchanged their identity information, changed their clothes, and unanimously decided to go to the food and beverage area to find something to fill their stomachs.

As he walked, Mo Tiangen said to Ji Shu, "I actually saw you before."

Ji Lu turned his head to look at him, his eyes widened, his expression was quite surprised, "Have you seen me? Where?"

"I recognize your tomato scrambled egg sweatshirt."

Mo Tiangen nodded, "You were in that maglev rail car before, right?"

"what!?"

Hearing this, Ji Tuan has changed from surprise to shock.

He screamed out, "So you too—"

&&&&&&&&&

Although Ji Lu didn't know how he came to this empty city of ashes, he clearly remembered the last thing he was going through before he lost consciousness.

He is a recurve bow athlete who participates in both team and individual competitions. He is also the captain of the men's national youth team.

When training on weekdays, he was not the best in the team, but every time he played on the field, he played the most stable.

About half of the natural character, half of the results of childhood training, Ji Shu has a big heart that is particularly suitable for the field, and is particularly good at playing headwinds. Often when the score is lagging behind, relying on his own stability to play one by one. Pointing to recover the number of loops, on the contrary, puts huge pressure on the opponent.

In the words of the teammates, as long as their Captain Ji Xiaoniao is on the court, it will be like a pin on the sea, and it will naturally bring a sense of stability to the entire team.

In fact, since Ji Lu became the captain of the men's national youth team, everyone in the team has indeed achieved better results in all competitions year by year.

Four days ago, Ji Lu and his teammates won the team gold medal in the World Youth Championship. This is also the best result their National Youth Team has achieved in the World Championships in the past ten years.

Just when they returned with honour, they encountered a sudden accident on the way from the airport to the training center.

At that time, the National Youth Team members including Ji Lu, as well as two coaches and a team doctor were sitting on a maglev rail car.

This kind of maglev railcar is shorter than subways and trains, and the length of the carriages is about the same as that of three buses connected end to end. The average speed is about 100 kilometers per hour, which is much faster than the cars driving on urban roads.

Although they can only travel along established tracks and cannot stop frequently, so they cannot replace the status of ordinary buses, but in terms of safety, maglev rail vehicles are much higher than most travel modes.

But it is this kind of maglev railcar, which is said to have been put into operation and has never had an accident. When passing a cross-sea bridge, it suddenly stalled without warning, and then derailed. The entire carriage traversed the motorway and finally broke through the guardrail. Most of the car body hung outside the railing, only the rear bracket was jammed by the broken railing, and it hung head-down on the sea.

At that time, Ji Shu and his teammates were in the middle of the railcar.

His luck was relatively poor. When the car was derailed, he was sitting on the side near the window, half-length knocked on the window glass, the back of the front seat was smashed by the fallen luggage rack, and he was directly photographed on him. , Almost didn't pinch his lungs out, apart from the severe pain, he lost consciousness briefly.

When he woke up from the pain, he found that he was hanging upside down in a messy carriage with his head up and down. As long as he looked down, he could see the blue waves underneath through the broken windshield of the front window of the car. The rippling sea.

Later, Ji Yu found that the reason why he had not fallen was because the deformed back of the chair had stuck his waist.

When he noticed his unfavorable situation, his first thought was that it was over. It seemed that his life was about to end.

But at this moment, Ji Lu heard a familiar cry for help.

He followed his reputation and found that the source of the voice was the youngest teammate in the National Youth Team.

The boy was lucky. When the carriage derailed and crashed into the railing, the bow bag on his shoulder was stuck on the back of the chair horizontally, making him hung in the air like a piece of clothes on a hanger. , Will not fall directly into the sea.

But even if they are all teenagers, after all their stature is there, the little team members have nowhere to work, and the weight of more than 120 kilograms is maintained by a strap, which makes him feel that he is almost from the position of his shoulders. It was torn in half.

In the extreme pain and the front line of life and death, the boy is about to collapse.

While crying, he stretched out his hand in vain, trying to grab something so that he would not fall, but as long as he moved, the place strangled by the shoulder strap came to tear like a sharp pain, which made him more and more painful. Panic.
