The drifting city of the last days

"Forget it...well, what exactly is it? It would be great if I could take a look." At this moment, Zhang Junjiu's face lost the smile, and he was wrinkled into a ball in confusion, like an eighteen-folded steamed stuffed bun.Being sealed in Tongtian coins and still alive till now, it is definitely not an ordinary monster.

"Wait." Qi Liang ran to the other side of the bed, found one among the pile of manuscripts, and searched quickly. He remembered why he felt a little familiar, and he probably read it recently.

"I think it's this." He stopped on a certain page, turned the page over, pointed to the one on the left and showed it to everyone.

Zhang Junjiu pointed his mobile phone at the paper that was yellowed due to its age. On the paper, a strange beast with a strange and fantasy style was outlined with ink lines. The two horns on the forehead were raised back, the eyes were as big as bells, and the mouth was bared. teeth, fierce expression, dragon head, horse body, Lin feet, shaped like a lion, and a pair of short wings on the back.

"I seem to have seen this thing somewhere before." Wu Fei frowned, "Yes, there is one on my brother's desk. What's it called? Yes, Pixiu!"

"To be precise, it's called evil spirits. There are two types of Pixiu, the one-horned one is Tianlu, and the two horns are evil-proofed." Zhang Junjiu smiled wryly, "Are you sure it's it?" If it's really it, it will be troublesome.Dragon has nine sons, and none of them has a good temper. Pixiu is the youngest of them. He is violent by nature. Although its incarnation can attract wealth, ward off evil spirits, block killings, and guard houses, it is not an easy object to control.

Luo Zhen nodded, "The proportions of the body are not drawn correctly, but it should be it."

Qi Liang closed the book, "Otherwise, you can confirm it next time it comes out."

"It's too dangerous. To be honest, I hope it never comes out again." Zhang Junjiu touched the tortoise shell in his arms worriedly through his clothes, and it's better to make a fortune later.

"It should have appeared to save Yunfan, and besides, it seemed to know Luo Zhen." Qi Liang felt that when it lay on Luo Zhen's body, it seemed to be showing favor no matter how it looked.

Zhang Junjiu gestured to Qi Liang, Wu Fei and himself, "Even if you don't kill the two of them, if you can't control it, the three of us will be very dangerous when it appears next time." The demon sealed in the ancient coin How much kindness does a beast have towards humans?What's more, the master who was born violent.

"It didn't appear for a long time, only about a few tens of seconds, maybe it was restricted by something. We should be able to use this to restrict or tame it." Luo Zhen frowned and recalled the situation at that time, his eyes unconsciously glanced over the drowsiness It has been almost 10 minutes since Shao Yunfan smeared his ashen palms. Is there any effect?

【The most important reason for its restriction is the lack of aura, and the second is the confinement of Tongtian coins. The details will need to be carefully observed next time】Qi Liang typed out a line after thinking about it.If they can control it, they won't have to worry about dealing with mutated animals in the future.

"If the ball of light the size of a basketball we saw just now is the energy of seaweed, then the two balls of light the size of a ping-pong ball are the energy that strengthens people?" Luo Zhen thought of another thing, and his hands It was also painted with that kind of gray, and it was inconvenient to type, so I replaced the word "spiritual energy" with "energy".

"It should be. I guess the size of these light clusters represents the amount of energy." Qi Liangyuan blinked his eyes, imitating Luo Zhen who used "energy" instead of aura, "Maybe our previous inferences need to be corrected. , the organisms infected with the virus, because of a certain genetic change, absorb energy supernormally, which stimulates some kind of strengthening or mutation of their bodies. The amount of energy can just be regarded as the reason for their limited strengthening ability."

Wu Fei looked at Qi Liang with question marks spinning all over his face.Luo Zhen and Zhang Junjiu were thinking about each other.

"As an analogy, let's say that every living thing has a bottle in it, which can absorb and store energy. But this bottle has a lid, so normally, it will not have any effect until we die. However, now there is a virus that opens the bottle caps in some organisms, so the bottles start to absorb energy, allowing them to mutate or strengthen. But because of the volume of the bottle, the energy that can be contained is limited. If it is used up, you have to It can only be used after it is fully charged again. Just like the battery of a mobile phone needs to be charged after it is exhausted." Qi Liang explained in a more simple way.

"According to you, if we can find a way to open the bottle cap, everyone can become a strengthened person?" Wu Fei said whimsically after a sudden realization.In this case, don't you need to be afraid of those mutated animals?

How to open the cap?Luo Zhen's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and he felt a thought flash through his mind.

"Correction, according to the current situation, the bottle should be in some people's bodies," Qi Liang paused, "and the method for the virus to open the bottle cap is not safe, and if it fails, it will die."

Judging from the current data of hotel guests, about [-]% of the people have bottles, and the proportion of people who have successfully strengthened it is only [-]% including Zhang Junjiu and Wu Fei.

"How do you know who has that bottle inside?" Wu Fei raised his eyebrows and continued to ask.

Qi Liang shook his head, "It would be great if I could know." Those people are potential strengtheners.

At this moment, Shao Yunfan's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes with a bit of confusion on his face.

"Small?" Luo Zhen was the first to notice that he had woken up.

"Brother, how are you?" Wu Fei ran to the bed and squatted down.Zhang Junjiu also followed behind Wu Fei.

"It's okay, I just have no strength." Shao Yunfan wanted to raise his hand, but he could only move his fingers.

Qi Liang looked at Shao Yunfan's hand, the color had faded to purple, and then looked at Luo Zhen's hand that had returned to normal color, "Maybe his poisoning is relatively deep, and he should be fine by tomorrow morning."

Luo Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled up the quilt on Shao Yunfan, "Don't talk, take a good rest."

The next morning, Shao Yunfan's hands were still lingering purple, as if he was wearing a purple rubber glove.Qi Liang suspected that Shao Yunfan's body was still poisoned, so he applied hair gray on him again, but it still didn't work.

Luo Zhen frowned and went to the next door again.Boss Lei and the hearing-enhanced person said with mournful faces that the fact that the color hadn't recovered did indicate that there was residual poison, but they didn't know why.

After hearing Luo Zhen's report, Wu Fei, who was sitting next to Shao Yunfan, frowned, "Will it be fatal?"

"The hearing enhancer said that she heard from Sister Sun that if her poison is not removed in time, she will be fatal, but I don't know the exact time." Luo Zhen's face was gloomy, his slightly thin lips were pursed into a line, and his fists were clenched tightly.

That is to say, he is likely to die in a few days?Shao Yunfan frowned and stared at his lavender right hand, his heart sank violently.The lines on the palm are intertwined, forming an hourglass in a trance, and from now on, his life is counting down.

"What should I do?"

"Try applying some more ash?"

Everyone was a little flustered for a moment, dead?Didn't die at the hands of mutated animals, but at the hands of enhanced humans?

"Clang clang! clang clang! clang clang!" Zhang Junjiu sat cross-legged on the carpet, muttering words, shaking the topaz-like tortoise shell in his hand, and threw the copper coins on the carpet.

"Longyu Shoal, the vitality is in the north." Zhang Junjiu looked at it for a long time, and compared the window with his finger along the direction of the copper coin.

Qi Liang: ……………

Luo Zhen: ……………

"Please, we live on the south side of the hotel." Wu Fei couldn't bear to look straight at him and covered his face, this guy really doesn't distinguish between north and south!Even if they haven't seen the sun for more than ten days, their windows still face south.

"Uh... the hexagram indicates that the vitality of the lucky star is over there." Zhang Junjiu smiled awkwardly, and pointed to the window again.It's over there anyway.

"The apartment opposite?" Shao Yunfan followed his fingers and looked towards the past, the nearest apartment was that apartment.The cloth strips that had been tied to the window ten days ago were slumped on the balcony of the apartment under the wind and rain, looking extremely bleak.

"Not necessarily, maybe it will be farther away." The little Taoist suppressed the embarrassment just now, the corners of his lips were slightly curved, and he smiled inscrutablely.

"Life?" Luo Zhen also looked over.

"Everything is born and restrained. I guess, since there is a body that releases poison in this world, there should be something that can detoxify it. The hexagram shows that it is over there."

Qi Liang's eyes moved, thinking quickly, he quickly walked to the bedside table to search for something, "You mean, in this direction, there may be a person whose enhanced ability is to detoxify or heal?"

"You don't really believe it, do you?" Wu Fei lowered the corner of his mouth in disgust. This guy is full of lies. Which words are reliable?

"What do you think?" Luo Zhen looked at Shao Yunfan.Although Zhang Junjiu's words always sound like a lie, but so far he has not said a word that has been proven to be a lie.Since ferocious beasts can exist, does the so-called divination effect also have an effect?

"I want to try." Shao Yunfan looked out the window, even if there were still unknown risks outside, at least there was still a chance to live.Rather than aimlessly waiting to die, it is better to seize this glimmer of hope. "But you just..."

"I'll accompany you." Luo Zhen interrupted him with raised eyebrows, stretched out his hand and squeezed the back of Shao Yunfan's neck comfortingly.No matter what happens, I will always be with you.

"Me too." Wu Fei hurriedly followed up to express his opinion, he is now able to help!Wu Fei stared strangely at Luo Zhen's hand on the back of Shao Yunfan's neck. Brother Yunfan also liked to use this gesture to comfort himself. The habits of the two of them are actually the same!

"Naturally, I will follow Fu Xing." Zhang Junjiu picked up the copper coins on the ground and curled his mouth.

"There is a hospital six or seven blocks south of the hotel." Qi Liang dug out the map from the hotel information on the bedside table, and pointed out the red cross marked directly south of the hotel to several other people.They were already planning to leave the hotel. When Qi Liang was thinking about the route, he thought about this side, "It's the Second Affiliated Hospital of S University. I remember that the inpatient department is on the twentieth floor. So there must be doctors there." Survive! Could it be here that the hexagram said? Now the key is how to get there?"

Wu Fei said, "Like Brother Luo Zhen said last time, use the zipline?"

Shao Yunfan sighed, "Even if Brother Zhou is willing to help, his mucus can only be thrown 100 meters away."

"There must be a way." Luo Zhen frowned, calmly, there must be a way.

"Maybe we can let Boss Lei try?" Qi Liang suggested that Boss Lei strengthened his strength, so he should be able to throw things farther.

"I have a better way!" Wu Feimeng stretched out his hand and patted on his knee, with a look of complacency in his eyes.
