Chapter 7 Crisis
Zu Li was taken aback, and the clothes drying pole in his hand was almost taken off. The raised face of the corpse was swollen and blue-purple. At this moment, a thin layer of white hairs grew on the surface, and a pair of open eyes There are no pupils, only the whites of the eyes, and the mouth is wide open, as if breathing heavily.
The corpse's arms trembled, as if it wanted to struggle from the water, but suddenly it sank sharply, and a huge force suddenly appeared in the water, pulling the corpse down. It sank into the water and disappeared, leaving only a splash of water on the surface.
It took only a second or two before and after, Zu Li opened his eyes wide and watched the body suddenly sink into the water, turning into a black shadow, and then even the shadow disappeared, but his hands and feet were cold, and he stepped back, and then He closed the window tightly, his face pale.
"There is something in this water... Besides this corpse, there are other things. Just now... something dragged the corpse into the water..."
Zu Li's lips trembled slightly, he murmured, and retreated to the side of the coffee table, grasping the kitchen knife and hammer, and felt a little peace of mind in his heart.
He thought of the female corpse he had seen before. There were signs of being eaten on the chest, abdomen and legs, and the flesh was blurred. At that time, he wondered if there were any carnivorous fish or other aquatic creatures in the water. Combined with the scene that just happened, Zu Li had a terrible guess in his heart.
There is an extremely terrifying creature hidden in the water outside, which will eat the corpse, and judging from the speed at which the corpse was dragged to sink, this mysterious aquatic creature is extremely terrifying, and can smash a floating corpse so quickly Drag into the water and disappear, its strength is great, and its size is definitely not small.
"It can't be a crocodile or a shark or something..."
Su Li looked at the boundless water outside, with a faint despair in his heart, and this terrible conjecture came up in his mind.
Even a city was submerged. If there were ferocious animals such as sharks or crocodiles in the water in front of him, Zuli would not be surprised, but for him, it was deadly.
He worked hard to make the raft, and thought about leaving here early tomorrow morning to find other survivors and seek rescue, but if such terrible creatures really lived in the water, it would be troublesome, he escaped on the raft, and died No difference.
"I can only stay here, but the food is limited, and I can last for four days at most."
Zu Li thought about it for a long time, but there was no better way to think of it. He could only lock all the windows in the row of the balcony, and then checked the other windows and locked them one by one.
It's just that he knew in his heart that he was on the 30th floor, and there were no security windows outside. If there were still corpses that turned into corpses like a female corpse during the day, they could easily break the window glass and climb in. As for what was hidden in the water. What kind of creature, although he guessed for a long time, he didn't have the slightest clue. The only hope was that this mysterious creature could only live in the water, and would not be able to go ashore like the corpse that turned into a corpse.
Zu Li was sure that the doors and windows had been locked. Seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, he took out the instant noodles, bread, biscuits and other snacks in the refrigerator, and then found a travel backpack and packed all the food into it. In the backpack, in case of an emergency, you need to escape from here urgently, and it is too late to take away the food.
The room was getting darker and darker. Zu Li lay on the sofa with a kitchen knife and a hammer in his arms. In the dark night, with his eyes open, he had a strong ominous premonition in his heart that something would happen tonight.
As if to fulfill his hunch, suddenly, footsteps were heard in the corridor outside the door.
The footsteps were not loud, but they sounded very clearly in this silent night.
Su Li's body tightened immediately, grabbing the kitchen knife and hammer, and stood up from the sofa.
He didn't see a single living person on the 30th floor. How could there be footsteps in the corridor? Is it...
Step by step, step by step,
Hearing the voice, it was coming towards him.
Zu Li finally couldn't bear it any longer. He moved lightly in the dark and moved towards the security door. He wanted to see through the cat's eyes to see what was making the footsteps outside.
In just a few short steps, Zu Li's palms were covered in cold sweat, clutching the kitchen knife and hammer tightly, comforting himself and giving himself courage.
"Even if it's a corpse, there's nothing scary about it. Except for the appearance that looks a little scary, the movement is not sensitive, and the action is very rigid. It's not my opponent at all..."
He meditated over and over again in his heart, like hypnotizing himself, repeating this over and over again, and then he walked to the door and looked into the cat's eyes.
At this moment, the footsteps outside disappeared, and it seemed that the person who was walking had stopped.
Su Li looked through the cat's eyes, it was dark outside, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
It was then that he remembered that the corridor outside was the same as his room, it was dark and there was no light, and the cat's eyes couldn't see the outside.
At this moment, there was a sudden "click" sound from the balcony, which was the sound of window glass shattering.
In this dead silence, the voice suddenly sounded, which was particularly harsh. Zuli shuddered, his whole body was shaken, he turned his head sharply, and saw that a window glass on the balcony was shattered, and two arms stretched out from the outside. He came in, slammed against the window, and a big, swollen, bruised face appeared.
Most of this face was eaten away, and the flesh was blurred. One of the eyeballs protruded from the eye socket, and there were tendons attached to the back. It was hanging on the face. The half of the face that was not eaten was covered with a thin layer. White fur, the other eye without pupils, was staring at Zuli in the dark, like a fish out of water, its mouth kept opening and closing unconsciously, which looked very strange.
Although most of his face was eaten away, Zu Li recognized at first glance that he was the floating corpse he had seen in the water outside the balcony. At that time, his face was still intact, and he was dragged into the water and disappeared. At this moment, it appeared again, shattering a window glass, and wanted to climb in.
With the experience of facing the female corpse for the first time, although Zu Li was still full of fear at this moment, he still rushed up, and before the corpse climbed in, he had to strike first.
He had already discovered that the monster that the corpse had turned into was terrifying, but its shortcomings were also very obvious, that is, the joints were relatively stiff, and its movements were not as flexible as ordinary people.
When Zu Li rushed up, the corpse had just put its head in, he grabbed the hammer with his right hand, and slammed it down on the corpse's head.
The corpse raised both hands to protect its head and face, and the hammer hit one of its arms.
