Alien Dust

Chapter 14: The Soul is Chasing
Looking along the long railway track, you can see a rusty old train parked at the fork in the track.

The weeds on both sides have grown taller than people.

I'm afraid that in a few years, the tracks will be swallowed up by these lush weeds, and even the trains will be submerged in the weeds.

The distance is not too far and there is definitely plenty of time.

Wu Hen wiped the sweat from his forehead with his arm, and a tingling sensation came from his arm.

When he opened his arm and took a look at the inside, the mysterious black substance reappeared. However, the weird thing was that it was no longer in the shape of a death sword, but... a dark ink pistol!
Ah? ? ?
Godfather, what on earth are you???
It has lightning and a death sword, and now it can even turn into a gun!

Could it be that after eating that Yuanqi pistol last night, it transformed into a gun? ? ?
But your photo is on my arm and I can’t use it!
"Xiao Hen, did you hear anything?" Su Li's voice interrupted Wu Hen's thoughts.

"Oh, oh, I wasn't listening carefully just now. Wait for me to do a sound wave scan." Wu Hen then closed his eyes and focused on his hearing.

After concentrating, Wu Hen's hearing began to spread around.

"squeak~"

“Crackle~~Crackle~”

A very slight sound of bones rubbing against each other!

It's a bit like the sound a reinforced concrete house makes when it expands due to heat and contracts due to heat.

"They are moving very slowly, but we can't detect it with our naked eyes." Wu Hen lowered his voice and said to Su Li.

"Well, the sunlight only slows down their speed infinitely. Theoretically they are still living things, but in this case they cannot pose a threat to us." Su Li nodded.

"Aunt, can't our Yuanji pistol kill them?" Wu Hen asked.

"In the thawed state, they cannot be killed unless their vital points are hit. In the stone frozen state, their defense capabilities increase dozens of times, making them almost invincible." Su Li said.

"Oh, there are too many of them. It would be a waste of bullets even if we kill them." Wu Hen said.

"Well, where is your gun? You'd better stay alert." Su Li said.

Wu Hen looked embarrassed and had to raise his right arm. Then he made a pistol gesture with his fingers and held it up with his left hand in a serious manner.

Seeing this, Su Li smiled bitterly and shook her head.

It feels like the person hasn't changed, he's still so stupid.

……

"We're very close, everyone speed up." said the scarred uncle.

The rusty train still had about two kilometers to go.

After getting on the train and entering the enclosed space of the train carriage, they released the fireflies, which not only made them safe but also kept them away from this evil land.

"It's great to finally be able to return to the Nuwa sacred tree."

"I've had enough of this day. I'm in a trance."

“Hahaha, just follow Su Li and we will reach the other side.”

Those who had complained at first are now excited; they can finally escape from this place!
Everyone was in high spirits and their pace quickened involuntarily.

But for some reason, in the gloomy open space around like a cemetery, there are pairs of dark red eyes, releasing a kind of resentment and malice. Even if you don't stare, you can clearly feel the evil!

"Creak, creak, creak~~~"

“Crackle, crackle, crackle~~~~~~~”

The sound of bones rubbing against each other became louder and louder, especially from the large group of evil spirit statues behind him. They seemed to be coming alive, and their movements were getting bigger and bigger!

"Aunt, the voice is wrong!" Wu Hen immediately reminded her.

Su Li looked back, but still could not make out the movements of the statues with the naked eye.

"Strange, why does it feel like it's getting darker?" someone muttered.

When Wu Hen and Su Li heard this, they subconsciously looked up, but suddenly discovered that the sun in the sky had lost a corner of itself!
The sun looked like it was bitten hard by something!!

Wu Hen was horrified, how could he not have seen this phenomenon!

It was actually a solar eclipse!

"Oh no, there's going to be a solar eclipse!!" Su Li, who was always calm, couldn't help but shout out.

The gap in the sun was getting bigger and bigger. As everyone ran, a quarter of it had been swallowed up. The surrounding light was obviously not as strong, and it was still dimming a little bit due to the solar eclipse! !
"run!!"

"Everyone run faster!!!"

"We must get to the train before the total solar eclipse!" Su Li shouted, her voice trembling a little.

Wu Hen also quickened his pace. Not only did he see the sun's light being obscured bit by bit, he also heard the "crackling" sound of bones all around him, like midnight on New Year's Eve, with firecrackers everywhere.

The midnight mass of the entire nest was thawing collectively, and the dark red eyeballs were all shooting towards the living people on the track.

They are coming alive!!
"What a damn solar eclipse! How come this phenomenon, which may not occur once in decades, happens today?" Wu Hen ran away, cursing as he ran.

It is true that the person runs in front and the soul chases behind.

The shadow of the sun that was bitten away was particularly strange. It was not a very regular arc shadow, but rather an irregular tooth-wing shape.

If the sun is likened to a shining old-fashioned light bulb, it is like a big moth is slowly crawling onto the bulb, making the whole room dim!
Evil!
weird!

It simply cannot be explained by common sense!
Wu Hen was becoming more and more panicked. The speed of the solar eclipse was even faster than he had imagined. Could they really run these two kilometers into the train carriage?
It was sunny not long ago.

After a while, the sky and the earth became dark.

High in the sky, there was a dim shadow of an incomplete solar eclipse, and on the earth, there was a group of people who were almost losing their souls. They were trying to survive along the track, but the midnight mass with dark red eyes on both sides was like a vicious tide, spreading towards the track little by little!

"boom!!"

Suddenly, Su Li fired a shot!
The bullet was wrapped with a powerful energy and exploded at the head of a Midnight Mass on the track! The Midnight Mass was very close to the track. It was moving slowly and had already climbed onto the path that everyone had just entered!
Wu Hen also noticed that some of the Midnight Masses were obviously more powerful. Even if there was still some light source remaining during the solar eclipse, they could still stretch their muscles and even pounce and bite!

Their steps were a little stiff, probably similar to those of zombies, but as the light in the sky dimmed, their activity increased rapidly!
Wu Hen had seen the true speed of Midnight Mass, and the flashlight could hardly keep up.

"Get out of my way!!"

The scarred uncle took out a weapon from his backpack, which was an axe made of unknown material.

He was kindhearted and always took care of Yang Qin, who was the most backward member of the team.

Midnight Mass moves like a puppet zombie and can still be dealt with by weapons, but once the sun is completely swallowed up, no mechanical weapons can kill Midnight Mass!

"Aunt Huang, go release fireflies into the carriage!" Su Li immediately ordered.

"If the carriage is not closed, the fireflies will fly out," said Aunt Huang.

"Don't worry about it. The loss is the loss!" Su Li said.

"Okay!" Aunt Huang nodded.

Although she looks old and short, Aunt Huang actually runs at an amazing speed, like an athlete.

Her backpack contains fireflies that can provide light in enclosed spaces.

Without a light source, even a closed space will be attacked by evil spirits, and the breath of living people is difficult to conceal.

So, Aunt Huang had to release fireflies first to light up the carriage.

"Shanhu, you must cover the broken window of the carriage as soon as possible!" Su Li said to another woman.

The woman had dark skin, short hair, and was also carrying a very bulging bag.

"Okay!" The woman named Coral nodded and also quickened her running speed.

Su Li looked back and found the scarred uncle, Yang Qin and a boy at the end of the team.

She deliberately looked up at the sky.

There was only an arc of light left from the sun.

"boom!"

"boom!!"

"boom!!!"

Su Li fired three shots in a row, and each shot accurately hit the head of Midnight Mass behind him!
Midnight Masses that are hit in the head will not die, but their bodies will harden, and after a while, they will quickly recover!

"Follow me!" Su Li specially escorted them for a while.

The scarred uncle and the little boy didn't think anything of it, but Yang Qin was greatly surprised.

She didn't expect that she, who almost stood on the wrong side, was not abandoned.

If the man with glasses led the team instead, I’m afraid I would be abandoned again!
"I'll start the train." Su Li glanced at Wu Hen and motioned Wu Hen to climb into the train car first.

"I'll go with you." Wu Hen said.

The safety car was a short distance away from the front of the train. A total solar eclipse was about to occur, and the earth was turning purple and black. Wu Hen was worried about his kind aunt.

"Yeah!" Su Li didn't say anything more and quickly ran to the front of the train!

“Uh~uh~uh~uh~~~~~”

On both sides of the old train, the speed of the midnight mass was like that of zombies, only slightly slower than normal people.

They crawled over and surrounded Wu Hen and Su Li.

Wu Hen picked up the steel rod on the ground and smashed it hard at Midnight Mass who was blocking the way! !
"Squeak!"

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of bones joining together. Although Wu Hen did not see it, he instantly grasped the other party's position.

"Aunt, on the locomotive!" Wu Hen reminded loudly.

Su Li reacted very quickly and raised the muzzle of the gun immediately, aiming it at the blind spot above the locomotive.

The moment the gun was aimed, a Midnight Mass that had been thawed for the most part pounced and bit down, its speed was so fast that it was almost like a wild beast! !
"boom!!!"

One shot to the head!
Su Li's shooting skills were extremely accurate. In the moment of the Midnight Mass sneak attack, he blew its head apart, leaving a disgusting half-corpse hanging on the front of the train, its body becoming stiff.

Su Li didn't care about anything else. She kicked the headless midnight mass away and jumped onto the locomotive.

Su Li took out a Yuanyou with ordinary luster from the backpack and threw it into the cylinder.

Yuan You burned rapidly in the cylinder, generating a large amount of kinetic energy. In an instant, the entire front end of the train became hot, and the instruments on the operating console also lit up!
"Bang~Bang~Bang~Bang~Bang~"

The train's axles began to turn, making a roar.

Just when Su Li and Wu Hen thought that the entire train was about to roar away, an extremely harsh sound came from the track.

"Hey!!!!"

The train axle was moving forward, but something was stuck, blocking the train's movement!
"What's going on?" Su Li was also a little panicked. She didn't understand why the train wasn't moving forward.

"The train is stopped at the crossing gate and the gate switch is not open!" Wu Hen lowered his head to check the track and soon discovered this.

"Where is the manual switch?" Su Li asked.

"Over there!" Wu Hen pointed, and then immediately ran towards the gate, "I'll go open the gate, you continue to start the train!"

"Xiao Hen, don't go over there!" Su Li saw at a glance that there was a huge midnight mass at the gate switch! !

At this moment, the sun only has a dispensable halo...

Like the cold moon at midnight, it is coming!!
