Li Yi learned through inquiry that there is such a corpse in every building here, and only buildings with corpses can be inhabited. If there is no corpse, or the corpse has completely rotted, only the bones are left.

, then the building will be marked as a dangerous area, and living people will not be allowed to move in and live.

The corpse is like the patron saint of the building, protecting everyone in this dark world.

Xuan Yuezi has been observing these huge corpses hundreds of meters high at this moment. In her eyes, the giant corpses in front of her are not weird things. On the contrary, these huge corpses were once powerful creatures, but they fell for unknown reasons.

After death, there is still some spirituality in the corpse, but as time goes by, the spirituality in the corpse is seriously lost, and finally the flesh and blood begins to rot and disappear.

Moreover, such a huge corpse did not emit any corpse smell while it was rotting. On the contrary, there was a natural fragrance permeating the air.

Li Yi saw someone appear on a certain floor upstairs, trying to pick the fruits of the trees growing on the corpses. Those fruits seemed to be edible. The fruits near the corridor had almost been picked, and only the fruits growing in the middle were picked.

It survived because it was inconvenient to pick.

But relying solely on the fruits of these trees cannot sustain the survival of everyone in a building, because there is simply not enough food supply. In addition, there are also various problems such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't figure it out.

Maybe it's because my time here is too short and I don't know enough about this place.

"There are few people here. If you want to live in this building, just find an empty room. But be careful, some places are not particularly safe. If you encounter danger, just change to another floor.

The store is on the tenth floor, but you must have money." Liu Ming added at this moment.

"Okay, thank you."

Li Yi decided to walk around the building, take a look, and get a better understanding of this weird place.

Two people were wandering around the building.

There were a lot of graffiti on the corridors and corridors. It was obvious that many people had lived here before, but in the end due to various reasons, the building lost its former vitality and looked a bit dilapidated. But what interested him was that it was such a ghost place.

, there is actually a store?

What does the store sell?

besides.

The building is not 100% safe, and there are some dangers.

This also made Li Yi not relax his vigilance.

Entered a room randomly.

The room was empty, dusty, and empty of anything. It seemed that the furniture had been moved away long ago, but it could be seen that people had lived here before, and there were some traces of life on the walls.

Li Yi said nothing and observed as he walked.

He walked up a few floors along the stairs.

There is no elevator here, so you have to rely on stairs to go up and down the stairs. However, there are a lot of stairs, four in total, one in each direction, and the stairs are relatively spacious, so even if there are many people living there, it will not seem crowded.

When Li Yi came to the fourth floor, there were two families living here.

Although the door was closed, there were lights on inside, and the white lights were particularly eye-catching in the slightly dim corridor.

Of course, it’s not just the fourth floor, there are lights on other floors, scattered and irregular. I don’t know why these people don’t live together, or is it that living in this kind of environment, there is so much confusion between people?

Full of vigilance, they have to be wary not only of dangers inside and outside the building, but also of conflicts between people.

After all, it doesn't look like there's order here.

There's just no order, so why do people have to act as gatekeepers?

Li Yi looked at the door,

The man in a suit named Liu Ming was sitting in front of a wooden table, staring at the kerosene lamp on the table. Although he looked slightly uneasy, he was still performing his duties and guarding the door with all his heart, even if no one was watching.

, he still fulfilled his duties faithfully and did not cheat.

"A strange world with strange people." Li Yi thought to himself.

I continued walking a few more floors.

On the eighth floor, Li Yi saw a girl standing in the corridor. She was about eighteen years old, thin and wearing a dark red dress. She had been staring at the huge female corpse in front of her in a daze, and she seemed to be behaving a little.

eccentric.

However, Li Yi's arrival seemed to attract the girl's attention.

The next moment, the girl in a dark red dress immediately turned her head and stared at Li Yi, and then showed a pale smile: "Are you a new guest? Hello, my name is Bai You here.

There are many old residents, and now few people will move here. Most people have moved to the buildings in the middle, where they live safer and have more supplies."

"Then why don't you leave?" Li Yi asked.

Bai You said: "Not everyone will definitely abandon their building and leave. There are many people who are willing to stay. And so far, this building is relatively safe. It is not necessary to move or abandon it."

She said and looked at the huge corpse in front of her.

As long as the corpse does not rot, it will always protect the safety of this building. However, this huge corpse is not in very good condition, and its protective power is no longer as good as before, so it still maintains a relatively fragile balance and security.

"If you want to stay for a long time, you should go to the tenth floor and have a look. The shops there are still open and may have what you need." Bai You said.

Li Yi nodded when he heard this. It seemed that the store was very important to this building, and it seemed necessary for him to go and take a look.

"By the way, how is your strength?" Suddenly, Bai You asked again.

"Not bad, what's wrong?" Li Yi asked: "Is there anything you need help with?"

Bai You pointed to a room not far away: "There is a mouse there. The tenants here tried to get rid of it, but they failed. Several people died. If you can kill the mouse,

You can get a lot of profit, after all, it is a relatively rare monster."

Li Yi looked over.

But I saw that a room was indeed locked. There was a steel plate on the door, reminding people of the danger inside, not to open it easily. There was still a lot of dried blood on the door, as if it was to seal the rat in the house.

It took a lot of effort and cost.

"Mouse, the monster is interesting. Let me go and have a look." Li Yi thought for a while and decided to go and have a look.

"You need a weapon." Bai You reminded.

Li Yi said: "My weapon is my fist."

"Well, I wish you luck." After Bai You said that, he turned and walked upstairs, as if he didn't dare to stay on this floor anymore.

After Li Yi watched him leave, he walked straight to the sealed room without saying a word, and then struck without hesitation.

Gang Qi exploded, and the sealed door in front of him shattered.

It was dark inside, and a strange stench came to my face.

Immediately afterwards, something in the darkness was disturbed, moved instantly, and then rushed towards Li Yi very quickly.

Li Yi's silver eyes were shining brightly, and he could see clearly in the dark environment.

He was a little surprised.

It's really a mouse.

It's just that this rat is so big that it's running rampant like a buffalo. It can't be considered a rat anymore, it should be considered a rat spirit.

Moreover, the fur of this mouse is golden yellow with many scars on it. It seems that the residents here have fought with this mouse before, but unfortunately, they all lost and the corpses became food for the mice.

The weapons have become the tools for this mouse to grind its teeth.

"court death."

Li Yi was not afraid. Facing the giant rat that was rushing towards him, he did not use Taoism. He just relied on his own strength to raise his hand and punch out.

The force of the fist shattered the air instantly, and a thunderous blast was made, making the surrounding walls tremble. If the force had been a little stronger, this punch could easily shatter the walls and penetrate the building.

The giant rat with golden fur just received a punch and screamed, falling to the ground. Then, without losing any strength, it rolled directly from the corridor and fell to the first floor, with blood spilling all over the floor.

However, something strange happened.

The blood next to the rat corpse seemed to be pulled at this moment, and all of it rushed towards the pale and rotting female corpse in the middle.

Just for a moment.

The corpse of the giant rat shriveled up quickly, and all the blood was sucked dry by the giant female corpse, leaving only a soft and complete piece of golden rat skin, which looked a bit extraordinary.

Such a huge movement immediately attracted the attention of many residents in the building.

They walked out of the room one after another and came to the corridor, sticking their heads out and looking down.

These people include men, women, old people, and children. Although the people living on each floor are different, there are hundreds of people in total.

However, compared to the number of people that the entire building can accommodate, this number of people seems insignificant.

"Someone killed the golden rat on the eighth floor. That's great."

"Finally, someone has focused on that rat. I knew that the golden rat was so rare that someone would hunt it down. When was the last time someone hunted it in this building? Three months ago, maybe three months ago.

There were only three adventurers, but unfortunately, they failed in the end. They thought the building would be completely destroyed, but they didn't expect a miracle to happen."

"Who hunted the Golden Rat? We haven't received any news about the hunting operation recently."

These people started talking one after another.

Their eyes searched everywhere, and finally the people on the opposite side of the building spotted Li Yi and Xuan Yuezi.

"It's a foreigner." Someone pointed at Li Yi and shouted loudly.

When he heard the movement and sound, Liu Ming, a guard, also came over. He saw the complete golden rat skin on the ground, and then looked at Li Yi on the eighth floor. His eyes widened with a look of surprise.

Then Liu Ming remembered something. He came to the side of the golden rat skin, grabbed it and shook it hard.

A large amount of dry flesh and blood was peeled off. The flesh and blood seemed to have completely lost its essence and was quickly shattered and scattered.

But in the stomach of this giant rat, a large number of gold coins fell out and rolled everywhere.

"Gold coins, gold coins, lots of them."

The people in the building became excited when they saw this, and then they rushed down the stairs from upstairs, as if they wanted to snatch the gold coins.

Li Yi was startled when he saw this scene.

This giant golden rat actually has so many gold coins stored in its stomach.

He has seen these gold coins.

A room at the fork in the road was also filled with gold coins.

"This should be the money in this world." Li Yi then turned over and jumped, falling directly from the eighth floor.

Then he fell back to the first floor very lightly.

He ignored Liu Ming's ghostly expression and casually picked up a gold coin on the ground and looked at it.

This is not the gold that Li Yi is familiar with.

Although this gold coin is also golden, it is an unknown metal, and it seems to be tainted with some special aura.

Pinch hard.

With Li Yi's strength, he couldn't crush it.

Obviously, this is also unreasonable.
