Urban Oddities: Soul Contract

Chapter 33 The Terminator

"Ah! I found it, eat it!" Du Jiajun found Xieliting from a pile of colorful medicines, opened the lid and handed it to Zheng Chuanchuan's lips.

Zheng Chuanchuan was lying on the ground with a livid face.

He felt that his stomach was almost empty, and his lower abdomen was still throbbing.

I didn't even have the strength to raise my hand to take the medicine.

Du Jiajun tilted the bottle and poured the potion into his mouth.

"Xie Li stop? That's not right!" Huo Minghai, who was wiping Zheng Chuanchuan's sweat, noticed something was wrong, pointing to the label and said, "Shouldn't this word be called stop Li Xie?!"

"Stop diarrhea?!" Du Jiajun turned the bottle and looked, damn it, it really is a stop diarrhea!

gollum...

Zheng Chuanchuan's stomach made a dangerous sound.

The two rummaged around in a hurry and found a bottle of "No Diarrhea", with only one line in the introduction: Diarrhea, No Diarrhea!

"Hmm... ah..." Zheng Chuanchuan clutched his stomach and looked like he was about to give birth.

Du Jiajun held down Zheng Chuanchuan, opened the bottle cap and poured it into his mouth.

When the potion entered his throat, Zheng Chuanchuan tilted his head and lost consciousness.

"Damn, died?!" Huo Minghai was taken aback.

"Just dizzy." Du Jiajun packed the potion and stuffed it back into Zheng Chuanchuan's pocket.

The two moved Zheng Chuanchuan to the back of the big spider, thinking of reuniting with Yan Shi in the past, but Yan Shi let out an exclamation, and the three jumped out of the hole directly!

Yan Shi is impatient, after a few days of getting along, Huo Minghai expressed that he was not surprised.

The cave was several floors above the ground, and Yan Shi was held in the hands of Chu Gan, an expert in jumping from buildings, and landed safely. After landing, the three of them didn't stop for a moment, rolling and crawling towards them.

Huo Minghai was stunned.

Didn't expect their friendship with Zheng Chuanchuan to be so deep?

"Don't worry! Chuanchuan is fine!" Huo Minghai yelled at them with his hands folded into a trumpet shape.

"He's fine! We have something to do!" Yan Shi's voice fell, and the sound of galloping horses resounded again. The ground shook, and the gravel from the top rustled down!

In mid-air, a bright green light flashed, a branch stretched towards the cave where Yan Shi had just stood, and at the same time, another huge green crystal rushed out of the cave, colliding at a high speed, as if a big accident happened The explosion, the shock wave caused the stones to crack and splash, Du Jiajun protected Huo Minghai under his body, the storm of smoke and dust swept through for half an hour, finally stopped, the two of them were already covered by thick ash, and crystals scattered everywhere Like shards, it turns a dusty color.

The two broken branches stopped in the air, waiting for the next command from the Divine Tree.

"It's dangerous! It's dangerous!!" Yan Shi crawled out from the pile of rubble, flicked his body, and was choked by the smoke and dust.

Chu Moxie dug out his younger brother, but also coughed from choking.

"What's going on here?" Du Jiajun, who was the first to regain his senses, stepped forward and asked while supporting Yan Shi.

Yan Shi waved his hand, unscrewed the kettle and took a few sips of water, finally recovering.

"Don't mention it! Fuck me! Drilling around, I was still caught up by it!"

"Twigs?"

"That's right! That branch followed us all the way! More annoying than the paparazzi!"

"Team leader, maybe Shenshu has taken a fancy to you." Chu Gan will tease.

"Oh? Why?"

General Chu: "You are so handsome."

Yan Shi nodded: "Shen Shu has a good vision."

Chu Moxie corrected: "The sacred tree is blind."

Yan Shi: "..."

Chu Moxie: "It's blind, but it can smell you."

Yan Shi sniffed the clothes, and said in self-defeating, "A strong masculine smell!"

"Ha, even the branches outside are attracted by you..." Huo Minghai stopped suddenly when he was talking.

A bunch of little fresh meat gathered together, and the branch ignored them and went straight into the hole?

In an instant, a thought flashed in Huo Minghai's mind.

In the cave, there is something that attracts the sacred tree more than the fresh meat!

Is it...

"Blood?"

"What?" Everyone didn't hear clearly.

Huo Minghai nervously said: "Which of you is bleeding?"

General Chu raised his hand.

When he was avoiding the branches, his palm was scratched by a stone. At that time, after Yan Shi applied the smelly medicine to him, the bleeding stopped quickly.

Chu Gan stretched out his hand to show them that the wound had scabbed over, and a strong smell of stinky tofu rushed towards them.

"Could it be stained on the clothes?" Yan Shi checked General Chu, but found no blood left. Just as he was pondering, a green light suddenly flashed in the air, and several crystals fell from mid-air. General Chu and Yan Shi saw the situation No, they quickly kicked their feet and jumped away, the crystal pierced into the ground, and there was another earth-shattering shock. After the dust passed, a few crystals stabbed the ground quietly where they had just stood.

The shocked men looked at Yan Shi with unanimous expressions.

Yan Shi finally came to his senses at this time, he had bleeding from his leg, but the bleeding stopped, and the blood-stained pants hadn't been cut yet!He immediately cut off the trouser legs with a knife, ran away, threw the blood-stained cloth into a cave, and then ran back quickly, accepting the inspection with his head held high.

"Team leader, you should take off your pants." General Chu said.

"What?"

Everyone patted their buttocks in unison.

Yan Shi turned his head, pulled his pants with his hands, and finally found the blood on his buttocks.

Yan Shi laughed twice, untied his belt, and took off his trousers.

The blood was still fresh, presumably it was Chu Gan who dropped the blood on the ground, and then he sat on it.

Yan Shi crumpled his trousers and threw them far away into the cave. He simply kept on doing nothing, biting his fingers and smearing a little blood into every bottom hole.

Now, at such a close distance, the sacred tree that smelled the blood could no longer be calm, and left the little fresh meat aside, almost all the movable branches were attracted by the smell of blood, scrambling to go into the hole drill.

"Fortunately, the IQ of the sacred tree is not high." Yan Shi wiped off his sweat, and looked at the main body of the sacred tree not far away.

The green funnel formed by the branches is extremely large. Due to the limitation of the cave, the number of branches of the sacred tree pierced into the top of the cave is unknown. What they saw was only a small section of the sacred tree. Even so, they stood on the ground like It's a group of little ants looking up at a tree.

"The divine tree grows from the plane." Huo Minghai recounted the situation inside.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Yan Shi frowned.

"Are you sure this thing is an airplane?" Chu Gan tapped on the milky white shell.

"I don't think so." Du Jiajun said.

"It's not an airplane, what is that?" Zheng Chuanchuan who woke up faintly also asked.

"Team leader, what do you think?" Chu Moxie asked.

Yan Shi calmly changed the topic: "In the plane, there is something that supplies the growth of the sacred tree. Just put that thing...well, don't look at me like that! You guessed it right, this thing is not a plane, but an escape boat!"

"Where's the main ship?" Du Jiajun became interested.

"I don't know, maybe it's ruined." Yan Shi said unhappily.

"How big is the main ship?"

"It can hold more than a dozen sacred trees!"

"Wow, it's really big." General Chu's eyes fell on Yan Shi's crotch involuntarily.

"Not big enough for me." Chu Moxie also looked over.

Srubby's cartoon underwear wrapped a full outline, Yan Shi blushed, clamped his legs tightly, and then thought, no, it's something that men have, do you need to hide?He spread his legs carelessly, as if he was letting them see.

As a result, everyone really stared at that place with impoliteness.

"Is that thing real?"

"Can it be removed?"

"Can it transform?"

Everyone has a clue about Yan Shi's background, but on the outside, he looks exactly like a human being!They wondered, is it possible that there are new functions that have not been discovered?

Yan Shi gave them a white look: "Imported in original packaging, soy milk can be produced after kneading, believe it or not?"

All: "Knead it."

"Want to drink?"

"think."

"Squeeze yourself!" Yan Shi stood up angrily, but was grabbed by Du Jiajun's arm.

"Where are you going?" Du Jiajun asked, secretly feeling Yan Shi's pulse in his hand.

There are blood pulses and warmth to the touch, but is Yan Shi really a human being?

Or, in some way, turned himself into a human?

Yan Shi couldn't hide it, so he had to confess: "I'll go and turn off the engine."

"...Engine?" Huo Minghai hadn't turned the corner yet.

"Although this escape boat crashed, the engine part is well preserved. With the power core, it can continue to operate. Hey, it's just because the quality is so good." There was a bit of pride in the strict tone.

When the escape boat crashed, an explosion occurred, and a living crystal was formed in the high-intensity air pressure and heat. Originally, the small crystal was buried in the ground and would not pose any threat at all, but with the operation of the engine, it emitted The energy of the crystal has grown up...

Perhaps, the huge circuit boards buried underground in the village were made by "they" who escaped from the ship.

Yan Shi didn't know where "they" had gone in the long years, and he didn't know what kind of changes had taken place in this land, but he knew that he was here today, maybe he was destined somewhere.

Yan Shi stood by the door, and everyone looked at him fixedly.

"Take care of yourself."

"come on."

"Go on."

"No delivery."

Everyone took turns shaking hands with Yan Shi.

Yan Shi was a little moved.

Audience: "Is there anything else you want to say?"

"Can I ask something else?" Yan Shi rolled his eyes, touched the door, and a square lit up where he touched it. Inside the door that slid open, several sharp branches as thick as arms pointed at him.

People: "Do you want to form a team?"

Yan Shi: "..."

It turns out that having a weapon at hand is still very convenient.

The branches that stretched halfway were split by the sharp sword and fell to the ground in small pieces.

The space in the cabin was limited, and the big branches couldn't get in. The sword smeared with mud chopped on the small branches as thick as arms, as easily as splitting toothpicks.

Chu Moxie's whip sword is very easy to use. With a random flick, the range of N meters in front of him is swept away. He finds it quite enjoyable. The branch that just happened to break receives the command and quickly shrinks back.

The aisle was empty, and Shenshu seemed to be scared.

"Team leader, your soil is more effective than poison." Chu Moxie praised.

"Team leader, why don't you just give the tree a handful of mud?" General Chu Gan suggested.

"Hmph, it's easy to think about. How much mud does it take to kill this tree? Do you think I'm a mud seller?"

People: "Isn't it?"

Yan Shi: "Could it be?"

People: "You are."

Mud seller: "..."

When they reached the corner, the mud seller motioned them not to move, and looked into the depths of the corridor with his own head. The roots in the room were entangled, almost blocking the door.

The sacred tree took root in the room of the power furnace.

"There are too many branches, it's not easy to get in." Yan Shi smiled wryly.

"Detour?" Huo Minghai asked.

"Well, we can only take a detour." Yan Shi intends to bite his finger and spit blood, attracting all the branches to this direction.

Only when he raised his hand to his lips was Chu Gan pressed it down.

"Let me do it." He slashed his wrist with the sword, and the blood flowed profusely. In the eyes of the sacred tree, the blood of sword spirits and human blood are both delicious things. The blood dripped on the ground, and the room The green light in the room flickered one after another, the hungry tree of God anxiously issued instructions, the branches were ready to move, Chu Gan wiped the blood on the wall, Chu Moxie looked distressed, seeing that the painting was almost finished, he quickly grabbed his younger brother Hand, paste him with stinky potion.

Zheng Chuanchuan, who was sitting on the back of the big spider, threw them a roll of bandages and told them, "Wrap it up well, and throw away everything that is stained with blood."

Yan Shi touched the wall, touched a certain button, and a door slid open on that wall, behind which was also a corridor.

There are no light bulbs in the corridors of the ship, and the soft light seeps out from the materials. When Yan Shi entered the cabin, the corridors were all lit up. Du Jiajun touched the wall and it felt smooth. If he is not familiar with everything here, he is looking for a switch , I may not be able to find it after fumbling for a long time.

"Your boat?" Du Jiajun asked.

"No, the escape boats are all the same model, there is no difference." Yan Shi's eyes darkened, he looked at the crowd, and warned, "Don't tell them."

Strictly speaking, in the program group, he is the group leader, the person in charge, and even more like a big brother.

Working from dawn to dusk, running around for a living like everyone else, sometimes, he feels that he has really become an ordinary human being.

Although he looks handsome, taller, and has an impulsive temper.

Back then when he came to Lushui Village to collect materials, he never expected that such a big secret was hidden underground in Lushui Village.

"Don't worry, the people here are not human." Zheng Chuanchuan said.

"Ha, that's right." Yan Shi smiled, "There are ghosts and sword spirits, it's really an eye-opener."

Someone: "Ahem."

Crowd: "..."

At the end of the corridor, Yan Shi slapped the wall, a door slid open silently, and there was still a corridor behind.

Huo Minghai was almost dizzy, how could he have thought that the simple road would hide a lot of secret doors, he led Du Jiajun and followed closely, and as he walked, Huo Minghai tilted his head: "Your legs are not hurt?"

"What?" Du Jiajun hadn't reacted yet.

Huo Minghai stretched out his leg and lightly kicked Du Jiajun where he was injured.

"Oh, it hurts so much." Du Jiajun frowned and hung on Huo Minghai's back, "I can't walk anymore."

"Pretend, keep pretending!" Huo Minghai shook his body, helplessly, Du Jiajun stuck to his back, unable to shake.

Huo Minghai gritted his teeth and continued to move forward, only as if he was wearing a human-shaped cloak.

"Is it heavy?" Du Jiajun lazily embraced Huo Minghai, "Back then I could hold you in my arms, but in the blink of an eye, I couldn't hold you anymore."

Huo Minghai stopped and turned to look at Du Jiajun.

Du Jiajun also looked at him quietly. Huo Minghai's eyes were still as clear and bright as a deer. Compared with children, Huo Minghai grew up much thinner, and his face had the resolute outline of an adult man. Du Jiajun gently touched Huo Minghai. On Ming Hai's face, he suddenly found that there was an inexplicable emotion in those dark eyes.

A little surprised... seems to be... a little scared?

"Ming Hai?"

Du Jiajun's heart skipped a beat, his only thought was that he was a ghost, and Huo Minghai was always afraid of him.

That's right, who wouldn't be afraid of ghosts?

But Du Jiajun soon discovered that Huo Minghai was not looking at him, but what his eyes were looking at...

Behind?

Du Jiajun turned his head, the big spider paused, and Zheng Chuanchuan waved at them with a look of disgust: "Go! Get out of the way!"

After shouting a few times, Zheng Chuanchuan also noticed something was wrong, Huo Minghai was looking at him motionless, no, not looking at him, but...

Zheng Chuanchuan turned his head, and there was only an empty corridor behind him.

"Ming Hai? What's the matter?" Du Jiajun held Huo Minghai's shoulder and made him look at him.

Huo Minghai seemed to have lost his soul, he turned his head and looked over again.

Zheng Chuanchuan followed his line of sight and looked back, but there was still nothing behind him.

What the hell is he looking at?

Huo Minghai opened his mouth and called out, "Mom..."

"what?!"

Zheng Chuanchuan turned his head again, facing the empty corridor, only felt a chill run up his back.

Du Jiajun was also taken aback, and looked there for a while, then shifted his gaze to Zheng Chuanchuan, who shook his head blankly.

If Huo Minghai's mother came, how could the two ghosts present not feel it?

"Ming Hai, come here." Mother waved to Huo Minghai, turned around and walked back.

"Mom! Wait!" Huo Minghai broke free from Du Jiajun, and when he ran past the big spider, the big spider tripped him to the ground. Huo Minghai, who fell to the ground, looked up and found that his mother had disappeared.

"Ming Hai, what did you see? Where is your mother?!" Du Jiajun held Huo Minghai tightly.

"She... she's gone..."

"She never came here!" Zheng Chuanchuan got off the big spider's back, strode over, and shook Huo Minghai's shoulder, "Are you awake?! We are the only ones here, no one else!"

"But...she called me over..."

"In the past?" Yan Shi looked back. At the end of the corridor, the door that was supposed to be closed opened a crack at some point.

It was dark in the cracks, and the light in the corridor had disappeared.

Yan Shi suddenly had a bad premonition, and hurriedly called them to leave.

"It's not far from the control room, everyone follow closely!"

The team quickened their pace, and Zheng Chuanchuan sat back on the big spider's back and couldn't help but look back.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the door seems to be opened wider.

For a moment, he really wanted to run over to see what was behind the door.

He has become a ghost anyway, so he doesn't believe that he can still be frightened by ghosts!

Besides, can a ship from outer space still be haunted?

Turning a corner, the door was no longer visible.

Touching the switch on the wall, a door slid open, Yan Shi suddenly froze.

no light!

The hallway behind the door was pitch black!

Yan Shi touched the wall, and after pressing a rectangle, the corridor slowly lit up.

"Hehe, maybe the contact is bad." Yan Shi gestured to come in, and after the big spider crawled in, the door closed silently.

"Team leader, does this ship also use electric circuits?" Zheng Chuanchuan kept an eye on this time, staring at the door behind him.

"It's not a circuit... Uh, how should I put it, this boat is actually a living body." Yan Shi touched the wall as he walked, with a nostalgic expression on his face, and explained like a few treasures, "These materials are also a kind of living body." Living matter, there are no wires in the ship, only something like blood vessels, which rely on the power core to maintain operation."

Huo Minghai raised his hand: "What does the power core look like?"

"Little red stone."

Only then did Huo Minghai realize that the stone locked in the branches in the room turned out to be the power core of the ship!

"What does the brain of the escape boat look like?" Du Jiajun was curious.

"Its brain is the control room." Yan Shi smiled.

"It's all controlled by the outside world?" Zheng Chuanchuan asked suddenly.

"Correct."

"What if... it has its own consciousness?"

"Impossible. Ships don't have brains, so how can they have autonomous consciousness?" Yan Shi felt that Zheng Chuanchuan's question was very strange. Looking back, at this moment, the surroundings suddenly darkened.

Lights went out.

Yan Shi stood on the spot.

The moment the lights went out, he could clearly see that the door that was supposed to be closed was opening silently.

At this time, he finally realized that some unimaginable and terrible changes had taken place in this escape boat over the long years!

The author has something to say:
