[Sword Three] End Times and Tang Dynasty

Chapter 89: The Devil's Nest ([-])

There was an unbearable stabbing pain in his right eye. Tang Huai grasped the Zhuge Liannu tightly and assumed a fighting posture before fully waking up, and then his consciousness was severed from his sleep.

After regaining consciousness, he glanced at the layers of negative states on his body, confirmed that there was no movement around him, and took two steps to step into the water.

The artificial creek is full of weird algae, and the water is black with green.But in any case, this is the best and most surface water source in this area.

The five elements stone of the water system began to operate, automatically clearing the poisonous state of Tang Huai's body.

Now the cleaning is still going on, Tang Huai can't leave yet, seeing that he lost some blood, he took out the blood tonic and ate it. After taking it, he felt a little itchy on his right cheek. layer of pus and blood.

The right eye implanted with the fragments of the water energy core is now struggling to see the water energy gathering area at close range... This eye seems to be useless.

Looking back on the first and most difficult three days, no matter day or night, Tang Huai did not dare to stop, let alone lie down to sleep, and eat while walking when he was hungry, and whenever he was half sleepy, he would take out refreshing soup and drink it to quench his thirst .

The city of S is covered with fog, and the system map is useless at all, because Tang Huai can't see the direction clearly, Tang Huai inevitably took some detours, but fortunately, the general direction is correct.

In fact, under Shi Mingjie's efforts and Mu Ze's control, the stacking effect of the poisonous mist was much slower than before; after turning on the massacre mode, Tang Huai's attack power had a qualitative leap. It is no exaggeration to say that s A large number of mutated plants in the city, as long as Tang Huai can find their weaknesses, he can kill them with one blow.

It's just that every time Tang Huai used his right eye, which could see the energy of the water system, Tang Huai's eyes felt like being stabbed by a knife, and his whole head hurt.Therefore, every time he locked a water source, he had to memorize the location and approximate distance as quickly as possible, and move forward at full speed with the people behind his back behind his back, using his super high attack power to eliminate all mutant plants along the way.

The real biggest test was Tang Huai's physical strength.

Since there are almost no clean water sources in S City, the effect of the dirty water on removing toxicity is extremely limited. Tang Huai has to carry Miao Shiyi, who is no lighter than him, in a race against time under numerous obstacles.

The first time he was able to rest was just now - in the early morning of the fourth day, under [-]'s repeated warnings, Tang Huai forced himself to use his right eye with a headache, and then went straight to the artificial stream with Miao Shiyi on his back.

Tang Huai's blood line has been stable at around full blood due to the continuous supply of blood tonics.On the way to the stream, he cleaned up more than a dozen mutated plants, and finally climbed to the stream almost on his knees.

Exhausted, Tang Huai shook his sleeping bag and leaned against his side with his last will, so as not to fall and hurt Miao Shiyi, and then fell beside the collapsed bridge pier, holding Zhuge Liannu in his hand when he passed out.

Seeing that his negative state was almost cleared up, Tang Huai stretched out his hand to check through the sleeping bag to confirm that Miao Shiyi's body was not damaged obviously, and felt a little relieved.

"How long have I slept?"

[Xuanzi 10]: Host, you have been in a coma for two hours, four and [-] minutes.Your right eye is now completely blind.

Tang Huai's face was calm, and he didn't feel any regrets about losing his right eye. The truth is that there is a price to be paid to achieve any wish. This principle couldn't be simpler.

He has already reached the edge of City S, and the evidence is that during the two hours just now, the toxic state has only increased by a few layers.It was enough to bring Miao Shiyi out of the crisis-ridden city S.

Taking out a portion of food and eating it as quickly as possible, Tang Huai carried Miao Shiyi back on his back, waded across the stream, and walked towards the front where the fog was getting thinner.

Leaving S City does not mean that Tang Huai's progress will be easier. Due to Shi Mingjie's limited ability, the relatively flat area is inside S City, and outside S City, the vegetation that is radiated by the energy of the wood system grows extremely lush, ordinary small weeds He is taller than Tang Huai, and Tang Huai's physical strength will be lost faster in this environment.

Fortunately, the aggressive mutated plants outside were not as dense as those inside S City, and his forward speed was not greatly affected.

After driving for a few days, [-] finally gave Tang Huai the first good news in another morning.

[Xuanzi [-]]: Host, the map is ready to use.

Coming to a highway where the weeds were slightly sparse, Tang Huai sat on the ground, took some food, and opened the system panel.The map that had been shrouded in white fog finally showed lines and outlines again.

Judging from the surrounding terrain and the route he had traveled, there was a town not far ahead.There must be abandoned motor vehicles over there.Tang Huai still has gasoline on hand, so he can get a motorcycle repaired, and he can reach City N before midnight tomorrow.

Taking out the communication device again, Tang Huai tried it, but unfortunately found that there was no signal here, so he took the communication device back.

[Xuanzi [-]]: Host, there is no energy response nearby, you'd better sleep for a while.

Tang Huai loosened the rope that tied the sleeping bag a little, took the odor eliminator in Miao Shiyi's bag, drank it, and lay down directly: "Three hours."

[Xuanzi zero zero eight]: I understand.

One day later, Konoha was awakened from sleep by someone, and it was the Tang Sect disciple who stayed in n city.

Before Konoha could ask, the disciple said, "Mr. Mu, brother is back."

Konoha jumped up and ran out.

Rushing to the next door, Konoha saw Tang Huai who was leaning against the sofa at a glance, and said, "You?!"

Tang Huai didn't even open his eyes, and raised his hand to throw something: "Notify the imperial capital and send someone to pick him up."

Konoha clearly distinguished the priorities, although he didn't see what was in the blood-soaked sleeping bag on the sofa, but he instantly figured out his earlier doubts, caught the communication device and connected to the communication with the imperial capital.

That disciple of the Tang Sect was very good at doing things. Seeing their conversations and actions, he consciously stepped out of the door, and the door was tightly closed.

While talking with the imperial capital, Konoha looked Tang Huai carefully: Tang Huai, who had been missing for several days, was tired, his clothes were torn in several places, his left eye looked normal, but his right eye was closed tightly, and black blood flowed out of it. Half of his face was blurred.The sleeping bag on the sofa behind him was stained with blood, vaguely in the shape of a human.

After finishing the matter as quickly as possible, Konoha got confirmation, turned off the communication device and said, "Miao Xia disappeared with Uncle Jiu. I'm entrusting my friends here to help find it. Do you want to tell the Imperial Capital about this?"

Tang Huai said: "No. I will also find someone to help."

So many days have passed since then, and it will not help if the emperor sends people to join the search, and it may attract more people's unnecessary attention to Miao Xia.Since Tang Huai and the others made up their minds that Miao Xia would not have anything to do with the imperial capital, using all the power they could use was the best effort they could do so far.

Seeing Tang Huai standing up with the sofa, Konoha was stunned: "Where are you going? Your injury..."

Tang Huai didn't explain, and reached out to open the door.

The disciple of the Tang Sect stood guard outside the door. When Tang Huai opened the door to signal him to go in, he hurriedly followed.

Tang Huai briefly talked about looking for Miao Xia, the disciple nodded, turned and left.Only then did Tang Huai sit down again wearily, and looked at Miao Shiyi's sleeping bag: "Take care of them, I'm going to work. Prepare some food and weapons for me. I'll take a day off and leave tomorrow."

Konoha didn't go out immediately, she was silent for a moment before asking: "Aze..."

Tang Huai closed his eyes, as if he didn't see the smelly liquid coming out of the sleeping bag, and fell asleep on the floor next to the sofa.

When Tang Huai was fast asleep, Konoha carefully walked to the sofa, gently uncovered a little bit, but after only one glance, he withdrew his hand like an electric shock, and his face turned pale instantly.

Clenching his fists hard, Konoha turned around and walked out.

The next day, Tang Huai finally regained his energy, got up and began to pack the weapons and hot food in the house.

Konoha was standing in the corner of the room, as if she had been standing there for a long time.Tang Huai packed his things silently, and he didn't say a word. His eyes fell on Tang Huai for a while, and then on the sleeping bag for a while, his eyes fluctuated.

The last piece of food was confiscated, Tang Huai leaned on the sofa to eat, his movements were silent and quick.

Staring at the dwindling amount of food in Tang Huai's bowl, Konoha said the first sentence of the day: "Are you doing private work?"

Tang Huai ignored him at all, Konoha seemed to realize that he had asked a stupid question, his face was pale and he wanted to laugh, but in the end he didn't laugh, and his voice was erratic: "You don't need money...and you don't need to be sorry...but I'm sorry ...I'm sorry..." He covered his face and suddenly cried bitterly, "I'm sorry..."

After Tang Huai finished drinking the soup, he turned around and gently held his skeletal hand through the sleeping bag: "Wait for me to come back."

Standing up, he walked towards the door: "Since Xiao Jiu disappeared with Miao Xia, at least they are safe now. I... I'm sorry Miao Xia. If you find them, help me... comfort him well." Pause for a few seconds , he continued, "I really want to kill Mu Ze, but he once said that before he dies, don't touch Mu Ze without his consent."

Konoha was taken aback.

"Without Mu Ze, I wouldn't be able to bring him back." After leaving this sentence, Tang Huai pushed the door and walked out.

Leaving N City, Tang Huai went directly to the place where the survivors of the Tang Sect lived together.

When Tang Huai returned here, he found that there was no one here, and the energy of the water system in the core area of ​​Tangmen had spread so much that it had already affected this place.Although this kind of extreme cold can't make Tang Huai, who is already at the seventh level of the Five Elements Stone, feel cold, ordinary people can't stand it at all.It can be seen from the scene that everyone walked very leisurely, presumably they should have found a good place to continue living by now.

Of course, Tang Huai didn't come back to find someone, he just planned to use this as a starting point to go to Q City, the base camp of "Origin".

Although Mu Ze promised to help save Miao Shiyi, due to various considerations, it is impossible for him to send the fragments of the wood-type energy core in person.That being the case, Tang Huai had to come to get it.

It's been a while since Tang Huai saw Mu Ze last time, counting the days, it's time for Mu Ze to return to Q City.

There is still a distance from City Q. Tang Huai knew that there must be some human settlements on this road.

Where there are people, there are targets identified by the system, and he still has the opportunity to accumulate massacre points until his attack power reaches its peak.

After finding the car, Tang Huai repaired it a little, and drove towards Q city.
