I sell Coke in the doomsday

Chapter 105: Chance Encounter (V)

The faint blue fluorescence could not illuminate the darkness here. I hunched over, held my breath, and groped forward cautiously.

I don't know what's piled on the ground. When I step on it, my feet will sink slightly. It's wet and sticky, but it doesn't feel like mud. It's more like stepping on a pile of rotten meat paste, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

As I continued to move forward, I unexpectedly discovered that most of the grass cocoons had been broken open, and the insides were empty, as if they had been completely digested.

It seems that the food reserves of these weird things are almost running out.

It's strange, if the food reserves are insufficient, where can these damn things go to replenish the energy they need?

I don't believe this thing can be powered by just the sun.

Click, click, click.

Just as I continued to move forward with this question in mind, I could faintly hear a strange chewing sound and the friction of teeth coming from the front.

My heart tightened and I suddenly became nervous. All the muscles in my body were tense with tension and excitement.

Here comes this monster from the underground cave.

I lowered my body a little more, moved my feet slightly, and moved slowly along the edge of the wall, trying to blend my body with the wall in the darkness.

The light here is dim, so if I'm lucky, I shouldn't be discovered.

So I tiptoed forward, leaned against the corner, leaned forward slightly, and looked secretly in the direction where the sound came from.

However, I saw that the end of the underground cave was in front of me. A large number of blue fluorescent insects gathered here, emitting blue fluorescence that illuminated the place.

And at the end of the underground cave, a bloated figure, like a big piece of meat, stretched out his skinny arms like branches, gently picked up the blue fireflies gathered there, put them into his mouth, and bit them off in one bite.

"Crack!" The insect's body spurted out a burst of juice with a crisp chewing sound. With the help of the blue fluorescence, I could see the creature's appearance clearly.

It’s really hard to put into words.

That mysterious creature was extremely ugly, with one eyeball being larger than the other, cloudy and lifeless, as if it had been put into mud and water and then taken out. Its long and spread out shape were all grayish-white in color, and looked like withered grass roots covered with mud and water.

His face was covered with pustules of varying sizes, with thick white fluid gathering inside, looking like it would burst at any time.

I always feel that... there are more and more strange things in this world.

That strange creature, though ugly and terrifying, had a barely human body shape, and its limbs and torso, though weird, still retained some traces of humanity.

Under the blue dim light, the mysterious creature seemed not to notice anything and continued to pick up the blue fluorescent insects, one at a time. He ate very slowly. It seemed that these insects did not taste delicious.

He ate for a long time, and only stopped after he had eaten nearly half of the large group of blue fireflies gathered in front of him.

Suddenly, he paused, and his gaze suddenly turned from the darkness to me hiding in the corner. His swollen lips moved slightly, and a hoarse, unpleasant sound came out.

"I see you."

Damn, this bastard can talk.

I didn't react at all, even my breathing didn't change. I remained hidden in the darkness, without any movement.

Although I don't know how deep the water is here, this guy is definitely not a good person. I would be a fool to go out and confront him head-on.

The mysterious guy was a little surprised to see this. He looked at the corner where I was hiding and tried to slow down his voice to prove that he had no hostility.

"Come out, my friend."

"Although I look scary, I have no hostility towards you."

I narrowed my eyes slightly, looking at the guy who tried to smile but ended up making a terrifying face. My mind quickly went

The distance was about a hundred meters, there was no obstruction in between, and my revolver was still there. Although it was out of bullets, it was not a big problem.

But the maximum effective range of a revolver is 50 meters. The current distance is too far, so it can't cause much damage.

After thinking about it, I no longer hesitated and took a bold step forward, walking towards the strange guy.

As he watched me walking slowly towards him, a mysterious light lit up in the eyes of that mysterious guy. For some reason, he kept looking at my face and not looking anywhere else.

This look didn't seem like he was looking at food, but rather a subtle look that made me uncomfortable.

This strange guy, I hope he doesn't have any special hobbies.

I walked towards him step by step, and stopped steadily when I was about 20 meters away from the guy. At this distance, I was confident that I could shoot him in the head with one shot.

I was happy with the distance, but the strange guy didn't look too happy.

After a brief silence, the mysterious guy stretched out his dead wood-like arm, hooked his finger at me, and spoke slowly.

"Come closer, young man. I can't see your face clearly."

I looked at the strange guy, without moving, and spoke calmly.

"Have you ever heard the story of Little Red Riding Hood?"

Hearing this, the guy was stunned, as if he had never expected that I would ask such an irrelevant question, but after a brief hesitation, he still answered.

"I heard it, what's the matter?"

I raised my eyebrows slightly, gave a very standard fake smile, and spoke slowly.

"I always thought this story didn't make sense. Why would Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother live in a remote forest?"

"Why didn't the Big Bad Wolf just eat Little Red Riding Hood when he first saw her?"

The mysterious guy became even more confused after hearing this. He looked at me, was silent for a moment, and then asked me very politely.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

I shrugged slightly and answered calmly.

"I just want to say that I am a suspicious person. This is my shortcoming, but I don't plan to change it."

"So, let's just keep this distance between us."

Upon hearing this, the mysterious guy fell silent again. He looked at me for a long time with his two eyes, one big and one small, before he uttered a word.

"…There are…interesting young people."

The guy didn't mean what he said. Even someone as slow-witted as me could tell that he was annoyed by my excessive nonsense, so I held back my curse words.

Then, the guy still didn't give up and continued speaking.

"I just wanted to see your face. I haven't seen a human in a long time."

"Young man, you just need to take a few more steps, just a few more steps."

I responded immediately, and the strange guy and I got into a somewhat strange conversation.

"My legs hurt and I can't walk."

"Didn't you walk very steadily just now, young man..."

“That was a flash of life.”

"Come here young man, I can heal your leg."

"No, I'm sorry."

"Meeting is fate, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."

"I'm very introverted and can't get naked in front of strangers."

"…I can help you even if you're wearing pants."

"Yuck. I'll be even more shy with clothes on."

"..."

This strange guy must have stayed underground for too long, and his IQ has deteriorated. No normal person would fall for his evil tricks.

The fact that I can stand at this distance is not something a normal person can do. If it were anyone else, those with guns would immediately open fire, and those without guns would run away.

Who would argue with such a monster?

The strange guy suddenly became angry, clenched his skinny hands into fists, stared at me with fierce eyes, and said angrily.

"Young man, you're making me mad."

I looked at him, who hadn't moved an inch from beginning to end, and answered calmly.

"Then come over here."

Chapter 106: Chance Encounter (VI)

"Then come over here."

"..."

After the words fell, there was a long silence. I never realized that I was so good at making others angry.

The strange guy was a little exasperated. He looked at me for a long time with his two eyes, one big and one small. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and laughed silently, revealing his black fangs.

"Sly little thing, you are very wary of me."

Suddenly, he raised his head slightly, raised his chin with some pride, and said coldly.

"Do you know who I am?"

Without waiting for my answer, he continued talking. I saw him pick up a blue fluorescent insect with his skinny arm, hold it in his hand, and speak coldly.

"I don't know how you are still alive, but you have to understand that I can kill you at any time and let the blue insects eat you cleanly."

"If I really wanted to do something to you, there's no way you'd still be standing here alive."

I took a look at the blue glowworm in his hand and thought to myself, this kind of insect is actually called a blue sub-worm, what a perfunctory name.

The blue worm was wriggling in the darkness, as if cooperating with that strange creature. The blue fluorescence flickered slightly in the darkness.

I felt my pocket and quietly tightened the revolver in my hand. With just one shot, I could blow this strange guy's head off.

So...what's the problem if we take a few more steps forward?

I lowered my head slightly, looking as if I was afraid of the guy's threat, and slowly took a few steps forward.

One step, two steps, three steps.

Looking at me walking slowly towards him, the strange guy grinned and revealed a weird smile. Suddenly, my body stopped abruptly, only ten steps away from him.

The mysterious guy's smile froze, and he looked at me who didn't take another step forward, and asked in a low voice.

"Young man, why don't you leave?"

I looked down at my feet, frowned slightly, and answered in a calm tone.

"I think... this distance is just right."

"enough."

Hearing this, the weirdo's eyes flashed, and he tried to make his voice gentle and spoke slowly.

"We are already very close. If I really want to do something to you, you won't be able to escape from this distance."

"Why don't you come a few steps closer so I can see your face?"

I still kept my head down, looking at my feet, and answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"I told you, this distance is just right."

A trace of surprise flashed across the weirdo's ugly face, and he lowered his voice and asked slowly.

"young people."

"Why do you say this distance is just right? I just want to see your face clearly."

I slowly raised my head, squinted my eyes, met the guy's gaze, and spoke softly.

"Old man, you can see me from a hundred meters away at a glance. With such good eyesight, you can't miss these few steps."

"and……"

As I spoke, I kicked the soft dirt on the ground and my tone grew colder.

"I don't like the feeling of being eaten alive."

However, I saw that the meat-like substance three meters in front of me had disappeared completely, leaving only flat soil.

Looking more closely, the clean area was a neat fan-shaped area with the strange man as the center.

I have always wondered what that wet and slippery thing under my feet was. Now that I think about it, maybe it really is meat paste.
