Earth Upgrade [End Times]

Chapter 33 The Town of Python

An hour later, Qiao Si'an opened his eyes and gently pushed Wang Ke. Wang Ke opened his eyes and heard Qiao Si'an say in a low voice, "Didn't you say you want to go to the toilet? Let the feast help you."

Under the cover of darkness, she wrote on Wang Ke's hand.

Wang Ke understood, he woke up the feast, took him to Nurse Xia and Doctor Xu, and expressed his intention to go to the toilet.

Xia You was quite polite to Wang Ke: "Go to the small room on the roof, go early and come back early, pay attention to safety."

There are still stairs on the sixth floor, and a small room is connected at the top.

The iron door of the room was closed from the inside, and there was a space about three meters in diameter, and some plastic bags were placed on the platform.

People solve their three urgent needs in plastic bags, then open the iron gate and throw them on the roof, letting the wind and rain wash away and flow down the sewer pipe.

The wind and rain were louder near the iron gate, and Feast's night vision ability was not bad. He stared at Wang Ke and asked in a low voice, "Why did you bring me here?"

Wang Ke poked his head and glanced downstairs, then whispered in his ear.

"It's inconvenient to say below, the squad leader and I decided to give you a detailed explanation of the base. Dr. Xu has a poison-type ability. Xia You has awakened Taoism and can use Taoist barriers, such as invisibility and sound insulation, but she can only be invisible. People or objects cannot hide shadows and footprints. The abilities of other people are obvious. We came early today and heard something. Dr. Xu often takes people to search for survivors, but every time he comes back There is a companion who is dead but can't see the body."

Wang Ke looked downstairs, and continued, "Doctor Xu asked me and the squad leader to form a team with him and Xia You to participate in the search and rescue tomorrow morning. To be honest, we are not at ease. Feast, you are not talking about hidden abilities. Have you noticed what's going on here?"

Sheng Yan replied: "It's just out of doubts about strangers, don't think about it, when you accompany them tomorrow, walk by their side, nothing will happen."

"Why do you have to walk beside me?" Wang Kemin asked.

Sheng Yan smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just a precaution. You can't easily leave your back to strangers. Doctor Xu doesn't look like a bad guy. Those companions who died were probably killed by a python. You and the monitor don't need to be nervous." As for why we didn’t report our abilities, it’s purely to test whether those in power at the base will treat people differently. Obviously, they look down on ordinary people and are very enthusiastic about people with supernatural powers.”

Wang Ke was still worried: "Is there really no problem with the base?"

"No problem, don't have psychological pressure, do what you have to do tomorrow, just remember to walk by their side, take it easy."

Only then did Wang Ke feel relieved.

The next morning, the going out list was announced, and one-third of the five teams were disadvantaged groups. This distribution was quite satisfactory, and there was no problem.

Yan Yan's team was not assigned to go out for today's mission. When Dr. Xu was about to take the lead to cover the team going downstairs, Yan Yan raised his hand and smiled.

"Dean, I have a request."

"What request?" Doctor Xu asked seriously.

Sheng Yan: "Feng Zai and I found a lot of food on the way to the hospital. We hid it in the villa because it was inconvenient to carry. Can we send out the mission ahead of schedule today?"

Hearing the food, everyone looked at him in unison.

Wang Ke and Qiao Si'an in the crowd were stunned. Did they still save food after escaping from the python's mouth?

Sheng Yan kept his expression on and nonchalantly said, "It's not very far from here. If there is no accident, we can reach the destination in more than half an hour."

Xia You rushed to talk: "How many bags of food are there? What are they in?"

Feast returned with a sunny smile, this smile is harmless to humans and animals, like a ray of light, shining in everyone's hearts, he said, "compressed biscuits, chocolate, instant noodles, ham sausage, and some other things can hold about ten a backpack."

Xia You's face showed joy: "Replace those kids in your team with some young and strong ones..."

Sheng Yan interrupted her: "No need, these things are not heavy, each of us three high school students can take three bags, and give the rest to a few children."

Xia You: "It's dangerous for you to take so many things. If you encounter a python attack, it will be difficult to escape. Dean, what do you think?"

Dr. Xu thought for a few seconds and was about to speak.

Wang Ke, who received a wink from Shengyan, said, "Why don't I go with them? My ability is speed, and I can detect danger in advance. If there is danger, I can take everyone away in time."

Dr. Xu nodded: "OK."

He looked around and called the man who walked with him on the Tianqiao yesterday to accompany him instead of Wang Ke.

Sheng Yan called a few children: "Come here, go with your brothers and sisters."

Several children stepped forward nervously.

For the first time, Sheng Yan took a serious look at several children, two girls and one boy, all wearing hospital gowns.

"What's your name?"

The girl with shoulder-length short hair said nervously, "My name is Hua Xixi."

The girl with ponytail looked more lively, she replied: "My name is Qian Lele, happy Lele."

The boy seemed not interested in anything, and said coldly, "Lin Sen."

Everyone went down to the corridor on the fifth floor to gather through the equipment passage, and Dr. Xu followed the man, standing in front of everyone.

Xia You and Qiao Si'an stood aside.

Doctor Xu said: "It has been confirmed that the python in the garden is not here for the time being. Please keep quiet and follow me. After you leave the hospital, pay attention to the sixth floor. If a piece of cloth hangs from the window on the sixth floor, it means that the python has returned to its nest." , if there is no suspension, you can return to the base normally."

After explaining this, Dr. Xu began to lead everyone down the stairs cautiously.

The absence of drag marks on the stairs of this hospital proves that the boa constrictors that lived in the garden had not been here.

When they went down to the fourth and third floors, Sheng Yan glanced at the mother and baby room, but the doors of all the rooms were closed.

In the lobby on the first floor, there were traces of a python swimming by. Judging from the traces, it doesn't look like the huge monster in the garden.

Dr. Xu let everyone go to the exit of the hospital, waved his hands silently, motioning everyone to leave.

Sheng Yan looked around and didn't see the python, so he gestured to his teammates to follow him.

The teams disappeared near the hospital one after another. Dr. Xu and Xia You exchanged glances, and Xia You said, "Qiao Si'an, you go with the dean."

Qiao Si'an had no objection, she remembered the news brought by Wang Ke last night, and walked in a row with Dr. Xu.

Xia You watched her movements, frowned slightly, and wanted to criticize something, but Dr. Xu glanced at her inadvertently, so he endured it.

She understands the truth of beating grass to startle snakes, but she is always impatient.

Doctor Xu said to Qiao Si'an: "Let's go, search room by room in the hospital. This town is not big, so it is necessary to encounter danger and get injured. Someone will definitely enter the hospital by mistake. Our task is to find them and bring them to the hospital." Back to base."

……

On the top floor of a commercial building opposite the hospital, in a certain bedroom, Sheng Yan stood in front of the window, pulled the curtains lightly, and watched everything that happened at the entrance of the hospital through the glass and anti-theft windows.

"Wang Ke, Zhuang Yan, you take the children and hide here. You decorate this room well, and Feng and I will come as soon as we go."

Wang Ke was puzzled: "I've wanted to ask since just now, why are we hiding here peeking at the hospital instead of looking for food?"

Feast: "No food, nonsense."

Wang Ke was in a trance for a while, and Zhuang Yan also showed a dreamy expression.

Probably because Sheng Yan's face and smile were so deceptive that they didn't even think about "lying" when they were in the hospital.

Sheng Yan said: "When we came to the hospital yesterday, we met Dr. Xu and the man next to Xia You on Tianqiao. At that time, Dr. Xu was about to kill someone, but he stopped in time when he found us. We knew that you were at this base, so we followed the trend. Come to think of it, in short, there is a problem with the person in power at this base, who knows why he built the base on the surface and killed people behind his back."

He lowered the curtains: "Hide here and don't go anywhere. If you hear someone calling for help or knocking on the door, think twice. On the way to the hospital, we encountered a monster that would imitate a child crying."

Lin Sen, who had always had an unlovable expression, looked up at the feast at this moment, and there was a hint of light in his eyes, "What does a monster that can imitate a child cry look like?"

"Maybe it's a harmless small animal, or maybe it's a large scary thing. What we met was a crow." After Sheng Yan explained, he lifted his foot and walked out the door, "Qiao Si'an is now on the team with Dr. Xu, we must rescue her as soon as possible. come over."

Zhuang Yan said anxiously, "And my sister Xiaomi."

Sheng Yan: "Xiaomi is safe at the base for the time being. After we rescue the squad leader, we will investigate the truth of the base and then make a decision whether to return to the base."

Zhuang Yan was still very uneasy: "But I'm worried about Xiaomi, Shengyan, I'll go to the hospital with you."

Feast: "Now is not the time, don't worry, we will be back before eleven o'clock, and we will make plans then."

Feast and Yufeng walked out of the bedroom and living room.

Wang Ke immediately locked all the doors.

"Zhuang Yan, you guard the window, you can see the base from here, Hua Xixi Qian Lele and Lin Sen, you also have to do something, come on, choose the position you want to guard against."

Hua Xixi said nervously, "I want to guard the window."

Qian Lele has a smart face, and looks confident and cheerful. She said, "I also guard the window. Sister Zhuang Yan is worried about her sister, so she will subconsciously ignore other places. It's just me and Hua Xixi who make up for it."

Wang Ke and Lin Sen could only choose to watch the gate.

As time passed, Yan Yan and Yu Feng cautiously entered the hospital hall, walking in the direction Dr. Xu left in his memory.

The ground was dirty, and the footprints of one large and one small pairs were even more obvious.

The footprints extended to the medicine room on the first floor, Sheng Yan gestured to Yu Feng, and the two of them lowered their bodies and came to the other side.

Next to this wall is a corridor, which leads to a staircase at the end.

And the place they came to just now leads to the garden, so it is easy to encounter the boa constrictor entrenched in the hospital.

Yu Feng was always paying attention to his surroundings, and Sheng Yan turned slightly to the side, watching the scene in the medicine room.

Qiao Si'an was standing behind a row of shelves, stuffing bandages, hemostatic medicine, alcohol and other things needed for trauma into his backpack.

Dr. Xu approached her while looking around.

When the distance between the two was shortened to two meters, Qiao Si'an suddenly left there sideways, went to another shelf, and took a few boxes of fever and cold medicines.

Dr. Xu paused, then approached again.

Sheng Yan could clearly see moist water vapor coming out of his ten fingers pinned behind him, and the water vapor gradually turned into a thick dark green color, lingering around the fingertips, converging into black water droplets that would not fall.

He came behind Qiao Si'an and tried to touch her.

Yan Yan glanced past the reflection of the boa constrictor in the mirror, grabbed an infusion bottle and threw it into the hall.

"clang clang..."

The infusion bottle rolled and made a harsh sound.

Sheng Yan felt his arms tense, and was dragged by Yu Feng to the bathroom next door and came out through the window.

Just hiding in the landscape trees, the sound of the python swimming away resounded.

It was a snake with a thick bowl mouth. It chased the sound and came to the infusion bottle with its tail curled up. Without much effort, the infusion bottle shattered and the fragments scratched its body.

Faint blood seeped from the wound, and before it could react, a bigger python swam in and swallowed it in one gulp.

The boa constrictor roamed the hall, looked around with its head held high, and then swam into the garden.

Sheng Yan and Yu Feng came in through the window, hid in the toilet compartment, and saw Qiao Si'an crawling out of the table hole through the crack of the door, and Dr. Xu appeared in the last row of shelves. At this time, the black water on his fingertips had disappeared up.

Doctor Xu stared at the infusion bottle on the ground and frowned.

After a moment, he said: "The boa constrictor is back, we must leave the hall."

Sheng Yan and Yu Feng followed their footsteps quietly.

Dr. Xu led Qiao Si'an through several corridors and rooms, and pushed open a small door for internal staff, and a staircase extending downward appeared in his sight.

Dr. Xu explained: "This is an underground garage. I haven't had time to check it in the past two days. Maybe someone is hiding inside."

Qiao Si'an was worried about another situation: "Is there a passage in the garage? Will there be snakes swimming in? What if we encounter a python?"

The two stood on the upper floor of the stairs, and Dr. Xu glanced at the security lounge at the entrance of the garage, thinking about something.

Qiao Si'an looked behind anxiously, fearing that something would launch a surprise attack through the employee passageway.

When she turned her head, she found that the door to the staff passage was open.

Qiao Si'an's heart was beating wildly and he was gathering strength when suddenly a familiar face appeared from behind the door.

Sheng Yan silently hooked his fingers at her and made a mouth shape, "Come here."

Qiao Si'an lowered her head and saw half of Sheng Yan's body appearing in sight, so she ruled out her suspicions and nodded.
