Perhaps, it was because of the chasm that led to the current situation.
Even though Su Bai had switched to the zombie state, he still couldn't move. This deep sense of powerlessness had been present since the first day he arrived in Xi 'an. Since then, it had been following him like a shadow, suppressing Su Bai's heart. He couldn't even breathe smoothly.
The blood corpse turned around, seemingly planning to leave. His body was slowly becoming illusory. He probably had other things to do. From Su Bai's point of view, the blood corpse was dancing on the tip of a knife, playing a game with the horror broadcast. From another perspective, or from a position that had nothing to do with him, Su Bai might have praised him. However, the bandaged man had just disappeared in front of his eyes. Su Bai wouldn't have such emotions.
In fact, Su Bai didn't know why the blood corpse had appeared, nor did he know why the blood corpse continued to stay here. However, one thing was clear to Su Bai. He was now completely isolated in the narrow space of the hearse. Messages couldn't be sent out, and there was definitely no cell phone signal. Therefore, he couldn't do anything to the blood corpse, even if the blood corpse had some scruples about killing him. However, Su Bai was actually more depressed. He clearly had a key in his hand, but he couldn't open the door. It was really maddening.
Perhaps the Frankenstein monster who shot the black man's head three times with a pistol was just a special case. Generally, the arm couldn't resist the thigh.
However, just as the blood corpse was about to disappear, a white light suddenly shrouded the blood corpse.
There was a small loudspeaker in the hearse, which was used to play mourning music. Usually, when a hearse was used to transport a corpse, there would be accompanying relatives in the hearse. When the time came, the mourning music could also be heard in the hearse. After all, there were only a few people like the bandaged man who was dragged to be burned alone.
The loudspeaker made a series of friction sounds. It was a little harsh and a little fuzzy, as if a person was holding a new microphone and adjusting it. The only thing missing was saying, "Hello, hello, hello."
Su Bai's eyes were full of shock. He was very familiar with this white light. It was the white light that the horror broadcast sent people into the story world.
Did the horror broadcast finally know the identity of the blood corpse through other channels?
"Dear listeners, welcome to the horror broadcast. I'm the host of the program. I have no name, because names don't mean anything here.
Today, I'm going to tell you a short story, similar to Aesop's fables or Grimm's Fairy Tales.
There was a farmer who was very hardworking. He worked hard every day, so the vegetables in his vegetable field grew very well. This farmer had always cherished these vegetables. Of course, he did not spoil them. When he encountered sick vegetables or vegetables that were planted too densely and began to compete with each other for nutrients, he would deal with them. He would pull out some vegetables and eliminate some vegetables. His goal was to make the entire vegetable garden better.
However, there was a person, no, to be exact, he should be called a thief.
One day, the thief came to the vegetable garden. He disguised his identity and wrapped himself in a blood-red silk cloth, so that no one could tell who he was. He went to the farmer's vegetable field, stole the farmer's vegetables, and destroyed a large piece of the vegetable garden.
This scene was discovered by the farmer. From the size, the farmer could guess the thief's age. The old children in this town would receive fresh vegetables from the farmer since they were young, so the thief must have grown up eating the farmer's vegetables.
The farmer had his own principles and his own rules. He was a very rigid person, and it was precisely because of this that he was able to gain the respect of most people in the town as a vegetable farmer.
The farmer did not want to wrongly accuse anyone of being a good person, so even if he had a shotgun and a machete, he could not use them before he knew the thief's identity. This was the farmer's creed, and he would not break it. Even if the thief continued to steal vegetables unscrupulously every night, the farmer still suppressed the anger in his heart and remained indifferent.
Finally, one day, the farmer found out the thief's identity,
So..,
The farmer was about to make a move. The reason for making a move was not because the farmer felt sorry for his destroyed vegetable field. After all, vegetables could be sown, and they would grow again very quickly. However, the farmer had already discovered that because of the thief's exemplary role, many of the townspeople who passed by his vegetable garden during the day had an eager and greedy look in their eyes.
Therefore, the thief had to be punished. Otherwise, the vegetable garden would be completely lost.
However, the farmer could not hide his kind nature. He did not intend to use a shotgun and a machete to punish the thief. After all, the thief had grown up eating the vegetables he had grown, and the farmer had watched him grow up every day. Logically speaking, the farmer had a different feeling for the thief.
Therefore, the farmer decided to forgive the thief. He buried the thief in the ground and let the thief's body nourish the vegetable field. In the future, the thief's nutrients and essence would promote a field of vegetables that grew better. In the farmer's opinion, the thief should have obtained a kind of sublimation and inheritance.
My dear listeners, don't you think that the farmer is too kind? "
The voice of the horror broadcast continued to sound, maintaining a constant speed as it told the story. On the other side..,
The blood corpse began to struggle and roar. Su Bai could feel the dissatisfaction and anger from the blood corpse,
But..,
The horror broadcast already knew his identity, so it could start the next step, which was to teleport the blood corpse into the story world. In the real world, the horror broadcast had many restrictions, but in the story world, the horror broadcast was much more free and convenient. It had a thousand or ten thousand ways to make the blood corpse receive the punishment it deserved, ruining the listener structure of the entire Shaanxi region. It was equivalent to forcefully digging a large piece of the horror broadcast's private vegetable garden. One could imagine the anger of the horror broadcast.
Not long ago, Su Bai's struggle in front of the blood corpse seemed so pale and powerless. However, the tables had turned too quickly. When the horror broadcast found out the blood corpse's true identity, it directly pulled him into the story world. Similarly, in front of the horror broadcast, the blood corpse also seemed a little pale and powerless, just like Su Bai before.
The blood corpse disappeared, and all the restrictions disappeared as well. The zombie bloodline on Su Bai's body disappeared, and he sat on the ground as if he had lost all his strength. In an instant, the scenery of the street appeared outside the window of the hearse.
However, the corpse that the hearse was supposed to transport had been completely annihilated, including his soul. It was completely gone.
"Really, it's like a nightmare," Wang Yao said. Su Bai muttered to himself. Then, he reached out and picked up a small piece of bandage from the freezer. This was the remnant of the bandaged man lying in the freezer. Everything else could not be found. In front of the blood corpse, the bandaged man had completely evaporated.
…
The wind of early winter was dry and bleak. It was even colder than the wind of autumn.
In the cemetery area, Su Bai stood in front of a tombstone with a bouquet of flowers in his hand and a backpack over his shoulder.
In the picture on the tombstone, there was a skinny man in his fifties. Usually, there were pictures of people smiling on tombstones, and this one was no exception. The man was smiling happily, but because there was only one part of his face in the picture, it was hard to guess why he was happy.
Su Bai placed the bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone and sat down.
The wife and daughter of the bandaged man did not return from the United States. They only entrusted a relative to take care of the funeral. After receiving the money, the relative signed the papers from the hospital and sent the body to the crematorium. In the past, when the bandaged man was in the limelight, relatives would come to him no matter how far away they were. But now, everyone knew that after the guy gave all his assets to his wife and daughter, he could not make a comeback. Now, he was just a broken ghost. Moreover, the bandaged man's parents had passed away long ago, so he could not even hold a funeral or cook vegetarian meals.
It could be said that he was desolate, but it could not be said that he was not depressed.
In the end, when the crematorium discovered that the corpse was gone, they didn't tell the relative who helped them with the matter. Instead, they took some ashes from a dead body that had just been cremated and placed them in an urn. After signing the form, they handed it over. The relative then placed the urn under the location of the tombstone that they had previously set and completed the task.
The bandaged man's tombstone and the bandaged man's picture, but the ashes under the urn came from an unknown passerby.
Su Bai patted the tombstone lightly. He wanted to put on a serious expression, but he did not know why he wanted to laugh.
"Brother, I will not burn useless things like paper money for you. Let me loosen the soil for you."
Su Bai took out two bottles of mineral water from his bag and poured them on the ground.
Just as he put away the bottles, Su Bai's phone rang. At the same time, Su Bai suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He immediately knelt on the ground, cold sweat dripping down his face.
After a while, the pain finally disappeared. Su Bai, who already knew what had happened, took out his phone.
[Broadcast Notice]: Entering the next story world in one week
[Story World Name]: The Bloody Corpse's Grave
[Number of Participants]: Unknown
[Others]: Unknown
Looking at the message on the phone screen, Su Bai licked his lips and nodded thoughtfully.
This time, he finally felt the preferential treatment that the horror broadcast gave to the listeners who completed the mission in real life. At the same time, he seemed to understand the true meaning of the story when the horror broadcast forcibly pulled the bloody corpse into the story world.
