As soon as the flight attendant finished speaking, a powerful push came from behind, and Guo Lidong leaned heavily against the back of his seat.
He forced himself to suppress his nausea, swallowed hard, and desperately opened his eyes.
He then realized that the familiar scenery was rushing past him, and in the blink of an eye, the cities had shrunk to the size of a map.
"Oh my God……"
The faces of the passengers in the same carriage became blurred, and the friends who were just greeting each other warmly seemed as distant as half a century ago.
Soon, he found himself facing a lonely road.
It was completely empty and dark, with no scenery, no pedestrians, and no insects.
[A friendly reminder from Xinbao: The train is accelerating, please don't fall behind.]
Guo Lidong was abruptly pulled out by the notification sound, as if he had suddenly broken free from some invisible restraint. With a "pop," the surrounding air instantly changed.
Guo Lidong suddenly looked out the window. The bustling world of humanity, with its blue sky and white clouds that seemed within reach, appeared to be framed, their colors slowly fading until they disappeared completely.
Outside the window, it was pitch black, a complete darkness with nothing in it.
He turned to look at the carriage again, and at that moment, his five senses returned.
The carriage became lively again.
"My goodness, what just happened?"
"Where's the flight attendant? Are they there? Are you sure we're on the right track?"
Someone pulled a handful of White Rabbit candies from their pocket, unwrapped one, and popped it into their mouth: "I need to calm my nerves."
The next second, he vomited out the White Rabbit candy: "What is this! How can it taste so awful!"
The original rich milky aroma has been replaced by a cheap taste mixed with artificial flavoring.
The sweetness that was supposed to reach his heart was now cloyingly cloying. He could even taste that the sugarcane from which the sugar was extracted had become moldy due to being soaked in rainwater for too long.
He stared incredulously at the candy in his palm, and, unwilling to give up, licked it again with his tongue.
Yue!
That's it, he's lost the greatest joy of his life! With such a sensitive sense of taste, what will he be able to eat from now on?!
Passengers gradually noticed that something was wrong.
It has superhuman eyesight, able to see 360 degrees like a dragonfly.
Hearing enhancement allows them to hear the heartbeats of passengers at the back of the carriage.
A strongman, capable of breaking a steel bar with one punch.
They are agile and can perform 20 gymnastic moves in one second.
The group looked at each other, unsure how to react.
They mutated after the train had only traveled a short distance.
What will they become when they arrive at the City of the Dead?
With the help of the insects, the train continued to move forward.
No one spoke in the carriage anymore; everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts.
Guo Lidong quickly realized something was wrong.
The air vibrated intermittently, as if something was violently pounding against it.
He listened intently and discovered that the vibration was coming from outside the window.
He pressed his face against the car window and saw an astonishing scene!
This was a space he couldn't describe in words at all.
To the left, a turbid yellow river flows in mid-air, with countless translucent shadows swirling in its waters, some resembling people, others not.
There was a stone tablet on the riverbank, with words written in blood red.
The stone tablet receded rapidly, but Guo Lidong still managed to make out the words on it: Naihe Bridge!
To the right, higher up, the nine-layered sky was exposed, like a sliced mille-feuille cake. Each layer of the sky was a different color, the bottom layer was dark red, then orange, gold, turquoise, cyan, blue, purple, and silver, and the top layer was pure gold, dazzlingly bright.
Within the fault lines of the Nine Heavens, there are dilapidated palace eaves, upside-down immortal mountains, and broken stone steps floating in the void.
Guo Lidong opened his mouth wide, almost enough to fit a goose egg inside.
Before he could call his family to witness this miraculous scene, the train sped through the gap between them.
The buzzing of the swarm's wings suddenly grew louder, as if they were climbing at full speed.
The view outside the window became blurry.
Guo Lidong's forehead was hot, and his eyes looked like they had presbyopia.
He seemed to have a fever; his head temperature was abnormally high, and it kept rising until it exceeded a critical point.
With a snap, Guo Lidong felt as if he had drunk a large bucket of ice water, feeling icy cold.
This time, he could see even more debris whizzing past the window.
A black, inverted city, its walls devoid of flags; a scorched wasteland, teeming with countless tiny black insects emerging and disappearing; a magnificent palace complex perched in the clouds, its glazed tiles adorned with broken weapons and tattered flags.
Then, a golden slit opened up in front of the train. The swarm of insects carried the entire green train and plunged inside.
"Ahhh, Dad, how did you turn into Erlang Shen?!" Xiao Qiang pointed at Guo Lidong, filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Oh, the Heavenly Court's strongest fighter, why is it his father and not him?
Guo Lidong touched his forehead and was startled.
A vertical eye actually grew out of the space between his eyebrows.
This is outrageous!
What's even more outrageous is his wife.
"Wife, wife... how come you have nine fluffy tails?!"
Oh my god!
The Guo family actually married a vixen as their daughter-in-law.
As the train drew closer to the dead city, his nine-tailed fox wife underwent increasingly dramatic changes.
Her figure became incredibly graceful, her fingernails were long enough to pierce through his neck, her two small tiger teeth were sharp, long, and sharp, and her black eyes could be seen to be blood red.
Guo Lidong swallowed nervously and stammered, "Wife, you must stay calm. We can talk about it when we get to the City of the Wrongfully Dead."
The oppressive atmosphere emanating from his wife was so intense that the entire carriage fell silent.
Everyone was counting down the time on their fingers, restless and extremely anxious.
Why haven't we reached the Dead City yet?
Insect, do you dare to put in a little more effort?
Finally, they heard the flight attendant's beautiful voice.
[We are about to arrive at the City of the Dead. Please prepare for battle.]
Battle preparations? What does that mean?
Without needing an explanation, everyone could see through the glass window a giant dragonfly with a wingspan of over three meters, a centipede with a length of over ten meters, and a giant scorpion over one meter long with its venomous stinger held high...
These giant creatures, in large groups, blocked the train's path.
The insects are ready for battle.
The situation is on the verge of erupting.
Just then, perhaps due to the tense atmosphere or the familiar scene, the nine-tailed fox suddenly erupted!
She burst through the window, and nine orange flames rapidly spread upwards from the tips of her nine tails.
Nine tails, like nine blazing flames, charged toward the swarm of giant dragonflies with astonishing momentum.
"The fire of Qingqiu will burn away the entire wilderness!"
His clothes burned away, replaced by flame cracks that spread all over his body.
The nine-tailed fox held the fox pearl in its hand and threw it upwards with force.
The fox bead spun rapidly before crashing down on the enemy. In an instant, flames erupted, burning everything around them to ashes in a very short time!
