Endless Road of Corpse - C21

That night, no one mentioned zombies anymore. San Mao and Selina ignored each other and spent the night together. I drank the whole night with a heavy heart, not saying much. I kept thinking about what the Taoist left me. Run? Why run? Where to? I kept looking around me. The customers in the surroundings started to move away again and again. Everyone had to lower their heads to eat and drink. They didn’t seem like they were talking about something important.

Even though I was puzzled, I didn’t panic. Anyone who grew up in a peaceful era would usually lack the instinct to flee for their life if they were to be in the slightest bit affected by something. Besides, the Taoist has always had an unreliable record. In 2012, he brought along a full set of survival equipment and dragged both of us into a car. We stayed in the suburbs for the whole night! He claimed that he had already figured out the truth of the universe. There were many secret organizations outside coveting his research results, eyeing him like a tiger eyeing its prey, so much so that if anyone on the street gave him a few more glances, he would be nervous for a long time. The Daoist often said, “Everything in the world is closely related. The seemingly unrelated two things can very likely be related to each other. The world may seem huge, complicated, and random, but it actually follows a fixed pattern and only a very few people know the core secret.”

“Pay up!” San Mao’s shout pulled me out of my deep thoughts. He took out his wallet, counted out a few bills and slapped them on the table, then loudly shouted to the owner: “Open an invoice, raise your head and write down the XXX police station!”

“It’s still early. What should we do next?” Just as he stood up, Selina came over and hung him on San Mao’s body, and shook his arm, “How about we go to karaoke?”

“What song is’ K ‘? He talked so much during the afternoon meeting that smoke was coming out of his throat …” San Mao burped and continued, “How about we go to Yuan’s place to watch a movie? His family cinema is really amazing, you saw it in the afternoon, right?”

Selina blushed, she laughed and waved her fist at San Mao a few times, then turned to me and said: “Sure, what movies are there in your house? “But not the kind you see during the day!”

“Everything!” San Mao rushed to answer, “The ones who fight on the spear, the ones who fight on the martial arts path, and the ones who are sentimental, are all large groups, high definition blue light!”

“That sounds pretty good …” Selina turned back to MaggieQ. Shall we go together? ”

“Alright!” MaggieQ simply replied.

San Mao gave me another wink, but I ignored him completely. The four of them got into a taxi that was parked outside Seafood City and rushed back to my house.

After that, the local government came up with a plan to head south, hoping to develop across the river like Shanghai, Pudong. In a short period of time, they had a large number of projects built on the river bank, with skyscrapers sprouting from the ground like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and they even built grand municipal buildings. They wanted to move the municipal government that was originally located in the old center of the city, but because of the excessive scale of the project, they had to request permission from the central government, so the massive building was still empty.

The streets of the new city were wide and open, and the buildings were neat and shiny, but there was not much traffic. Even in broad daylight, the streets were sparsely populated, and once night came, it would become even more tranquil.

The two-hundred-plus apartment was a legacy of my parents, and when my father bought it, he had naively assumed that I would live with them when I got married, so that I could have fun at home with my grandchildren when he retired. But the truth is that before they died I lived in this house for a few days. Like all children in China, after the age of twenty my biggest key word to my family is to flee, to escape from their various acts of control in the name of love. I hadn’t lived at home since high school, had rented a house as soon as I graduated from college, had never been able to return to my dorm until they died in a car accident, and my father’s last words to me were, “Go home!”

This house is too big for me to live in by myself. Of course, any room would seem too big when I was alone. For me, who was living inside with a strong sense of guilt, everything here was suffocating, and I began to constantly add to it something that brought life and excitement, the full Boppo Home Theater System, Playstation, xbox, the highly simulated racing game seats, and so on and so forth. I kept inviting my bad friends over to my house to play, one after the other, and even gave some keys to close friends like San Mao, they weren’t courteous at all. Someone like San Mao simply stays at my house all year round, I don’t know where to put many things, but he knows, that sometimes when I return home, the entire house is filled with strangers, and some people are even trying to sell him to me!

However, I have to say that this kind of house has increased my preposterous life by a lot. Many of the Selina like girls that San Mao and the others brought with them, when they saw this kind of house, their eyes would lit up and they would even take the initiative to throw themselves into it.

“Come in!” San Mao used his own key to poke open the door, and made a bowing and waving gesture. Selina giggled as she broke free of her shoes at the door and ran into the living room, where she threw herself on my Italian imported calfskin sofa. Every afternoon, they would come to clean up at noon on time. The living room, which had been messed up by San Mao and Selina at noon, was now completely spotless. MaggieQ walked in without taking off her shoes, as if she hadn’t seen me, and I saw that she was wearing a pair of black, flat-soled, pointy shoes.

“Say it, what movie do you want to watch …” San Mao skillfully opened up my home s cinema system, and took out a basket of blue light video discs from the cabinet under the television.

“Take a look at relationships. Do you have a small era here?” Selina jumps over and kneels on the floor to pick through the frame.

“Why are they all foreign films?” Selina rummaged for a while, then lost interest and stood up with a grunt.

“Why don’t we look at this, the zombie Taoist said!” San Mao picked up a plate and showed it to us. On the cover of the book, I saw a bunch of tattered clothes with sinister and terrifying Zombie s staring blankly at the scene outside. On top of the picture, there was a row of bloody characters — — World War I Zombie. I couldn’t help but shiver and wave my hands, saying, “No … “Don’t…”

“Look at this!” MaggieQ, selected from another box, suddenly took out a plate and handed it to me.

I looked at the cover. It was Tom Hanks’s Da Vinci Code.

“Alright, alright, Ah Tang! Great handsome guy! ” Selina said in an exaggerated tone.

“Alright!” San Mao took the video disc from me and put it on the drive, then said: “Turn off the light, I feel it!” After saying that, he scurried to the side and flipped the switch. The living room was suddenly plunged into darkness, only leaving behind a faint glow on the television screen.

“Why isn’t Brother Tang appearing yet?” After a while, Selina started to complain.

“You’re talking about Tom Cruise, not Hanks!” I couldn’t help but mock.

“Ah?” Isn’t that different? ”

“It’s the same, both men are foreigners!” San Mao quickly said.

“But …” “Sob, sob …” Selina started to say something else, but it seemed as if her mouth was blocked and she just whimpered.

Thus, as Professor Langdon and the Freemasons left behind code symbols to compete in intelligence, there were constantly sounds of breathing, moaning, and clucking, which made me start to yearn for it. My arm borrowed an opportunity to grab something and calmly placed it on MaggieQ’s shoulder. She didn’t have any reaction, but her stiff body and faint smile caused me to not dare to take another step forward, so I could only bitterly withdraw my hand.

“Darling, this movie isn’t good at all. This uncle isn’t handsome at all. Let’s not watch it anymore, okay …” Selina said coquettishly to San Mao.

“Alright, alright. I’m not watching anymore. Let’s go inside.” San Mao immediately agreed.

The two of them did not greet each other, nor did they turn on the lights. They just stuck together and walked inside. As a result, MaggieQ and I were left alone in the dark living room, making me feel even more embarrassed.

On the screen Professor Langdon had discovered the secret of the Holy Grail and was being pursued by various forces.

“Where is your room?” MaggieQ said suddenly.

“Ah?” I was caught off guard and thought I’d misheard.

“Your room! “Where is it?” MaggieQ repeated.

“Then… “Over there …”

“Then what are you waiting for?”

I was overjoyed. I thought the girl was just acting reserved, but in fact my heart was burning with passion. I quickly turned on the light and led her to the bedroom.

“Come in, come in …” I opened the bedroom door and leaned over to invite her in. “Would you like something to drink?” I turned to lock the door, then turned around and saw MaggieQ holding a small pistol with a black muzzle pointed at me! I saw her with the gun in the crook of her elbow, tattooed in a circle, swallowing her own tail.
