Chapter 123
Chapter 123
The houses in the temporary residence are all next to each other in a row, and the sound insulation is very poor. At night, you can clearly hear the snoring and grinding of your teeth next door.
In this environment, Xia Weishuang didn't immediately tell her partners what she and Sang Lu were doing after she came back, and she planned to wait until she left here.
There are too many people, so be careful, not only Xia Weishuang, but before coming, Zheng Poqiang told me not to talk nonsense when staying at the temporary residence.
It's just one day, and it will pass after a while.
During the daytime, most of the people in the temporary residence went out to look for work. Although it was cold, the people who lived here all the time had no family background.
Xia Weishuang and Zheng Poqiang had already decided to move out, but in fact they only drove two cars, and they didn't bring much supplies.According to the normal situation, after they live in the temporary residence, they should take advantage of the one-month free period to try to find ways to earn more money and save their wealth before changing houses. Few people are so "wasteful".
But the purpose of several people coming to the base is different. For them, time and a safe station are more precious than materials.And on the way to the base, several people also accumulated some crystals, which are also a very popular currency inside the base.
With the help of Zheng Poqiang, several people moved to a three-bedroom house. Although it was a bit crowded, they couldn't afford to change to a bigger one.The current base is different from the early days. When there are more and more people, the houses are no longer allocated for free, but are handed over to the people on a leased basis.
Zheng Poqiang brought a girl with a round face and introduced them to everyone.This girl's name is Lu Yuanyuan, and she is Zheng Poqiang's teammate. Zheng Poqiang will leave here later. She is responsible for connecting with the people on Chen Jiawei's side. Lu Yuanyuan helped.
Before leaving, Zheng Poqiang also left a walkie-talkie for Xia Weishuang, which can be used for directional calls, so that the two parties can communicate in time if they have any news.
After Zheng Poqiang left, Lu Yuanyuan said that she would take a few people around the base to get acquainted with the surrounding area.
It was cold and there were few people on the street. Xia Weishuang walked slowly with a cane, not afraid of bumping into others.
Lu Yuanyuan introduced the situation of the base as she walked. This girl was lively and alert. Zheng Poqiang had gotten along with her a long time ago. She knew the purpose of these people coming here, so she focused on introducing what they might be interested in.
"You have already rented a house, but you haven't experienced job hunting. You may not be very clear. In fact, the reason for changing the distribution of houses to renting houses is because the food in the base is not abundant. After experiencing the previous things, everyone We must all want to store food, and the more we store, the better, but there is not so much food for everyone in the base, so we have to recover part of it through rent, and try our best to make everyone go through this period smoothly."
Lu Yuanyuan said, "Have you ever thought about what kind of work you want to do?"
The landlord's family had no food left. If Zheng Poqiang spoke, Lu Yuanyuan and a few teammates could help a few people by squeezing in, but this was not a long-term solution.
"I heard that none of you have supernatural powers." Lu Yuanyuan said meaningfully, "In this way, no matter whether it is an official supernatural organization or a private supernatural organization, you will have no way to join."
Xia Weishuang asked: "How is the non-governmental organization of supernatural beings doing?"
Lu Yuanyuan explained: "It's so-so, most people with supernatural powers have joined the official team, and it's more secure and safer there. Although I can move more freely, it's still too dangerous outside, and a reliable teammate is hard to come by. "
Xia Weishuang nodded, knowing that the official control here should be very strong.
She asked again: "Speaking of which, did you hear any strange news today?"
Lu Yuanyuan was puzzled for a moment: "Strange news? What aspect are you referring to?"
Xia Weishuang said: "For example, a strange corpse was suddenly found in the base."
Lu Yuanyuan shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of it."
It seems that last night's incident was suppressed. I don't know what the official considerations are, but the control over public opinion in the city is still very strong.
Then Lu Yuanyuan took a few people to the free trade market, official stores, some offices that might be frequented, and the seed laboratory that everyone cares about most.
The seed laboratory and the planting area are in the same place. The place is remote and there are no residential areas. Usually, there are staff who come and go here, and the supervision is extremely strict. It will be very obvious when idlers approach, so Lu Yuanyuan only took them to watch from a distance. After taking a look, I didn't dare to move over.
The base is not very big, but after walking around like this, the sky will be completely dark.
As soon as it got dark, there were fewer people on the road.
Lu Yuanyuan and the others started to walk back, and she whispered, "This is only the inner city, you know the outer city, it's the area where you live temporarily, and there are many interesting places there. And the management of the outer city is relatively loose, and some inner cities don't Common things are also sold there. But I don’t have much time these two days, if you want to go, you can go and see for yourself.”
After thanking her, Xia Weishuang and the others went back to the newly rented cold house to start cleaning, and brought up the supplies in the car. I have to mention that the parking space here has to be charged, which is really heartbreaking .
"Hiss...it's really cold in the room." After moving things, he broke out in a sweat, took a rest for a while and the sweat cooled down, but it started to get cold again.
Because there was not enough space in the car, several people didn't bring the stove over. At this time, they couldn't help feeling a little worried when they saw the shabby room. If they wanted to live in this place for a long time, they couldn't do it without adding some things.
Xia Weishuang said: "Use this heating ball to heat water and eat something."
Open the small cloth bag containing the body parts and count, only seven or eight pieces are left, which can be used for a week if not used for other purposes.
Sang Lu had no objection to this, she tried to rub Xia Weishuang's hands to warm her, but unfortunately the effect was not good, the more she rubbed, the colder she became, the more she doubted life.
"I went out with Sanglu last night and saw something."
When drinking hot water and eating biscuits to satisfy our hunger, people already had some heat, and several people gathered around a small heating ball to keep warm. The room was completely dark, and there was no electricity. each other.
Xia Weishuang was not affected by the darkness, she sat upright, rubbing her hand on the cane lightly, and told her companion what she heard last night.
"I remember that Gu Minzhi's ability is to control strange beasts. Could it be that she controls all these troublesome things?"
The coal ball was deeply harmed by Gu Minzhi's supernatural power, and Bai Qian still remembers it vividly.
"I can't rule out this possibility." Xia Weishuang sipped her lips and said, "Everyone, be careful, it's best not to let yourself be alone."
"Staying here is not an option, we have to go out to see the situation." Bai Qian said, "Xiao Wei and I are not very famous, and there should be very few people who can recognize us. The two of us will go out tomorrow and check the situation. .”
When renting a house, several people chose to pay the rent with crystal stones, so the materials left behind can last for a period of time, so they are not in a hurry to find income.
Xia Weishuang said: "Be prepared when you go out. That time when Gu Minzhi brought people over, he may have seen your faces. We can only try our best to avoid this kind of thing being discovered, but there is no guarantee that it will not happen. I will urge Zheng Zheng Hurry up, Po Qiang."
You can't keep shrinking in order not to be discovered. Using a fake identity is just to buy time, not to hide for a lifetime.
Xia Weishuang came to fight back, not to depend on others.
Bai Qian quickly said yes, yes, she will be tied up with Wei Yunlang Mi Lele, and they will not be separated no matter where they go.
Xia Weishuang then said: "Do you still remember what I said about being attacked at night in the foretelling?"
Several people said they remembered, of course this kind of thing should be kept in mind.
Xia Weishuang turned around and turned to the direction that kept blowing cold air into the house: "The kitchen window in this room is broken, and it can't be closed tightly, so it can't be inserted from the inside. I now suspect that the night attack on the isolation room and It is the same thing that is attacking us at night in the prediction, so it is better to be prepared..."
"Will it come tonight?" Bai Qian asked.
Xia Weishuang recalled, and said: "Probably not, as I remember, a stove was installed in the house at that time."
"Then arrange it during the day, it's already late today."
Mi Lele had already started yawning, so Bai Qian was naturally reluctant to let her stay up all night.
"Alright, you guys should be careful at night." Xia Weishuang said, "Tonight, I want to go out with Sang Lu. If it's just the three of you, be careful."
"Where are you going?" Wei Yunlang asked, "How about going together?"
"Go to the laboratory." Xia Weishuang said, "It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Sang Lu and I will go to explore the road first."
"...Come on, you guys." Wei Yunlang said sincerely, "Do you want me to do a fortune telling for you?"
"No need, go to explore the road tonight." Xia Weishuang said solemnly, "Trust Sang Lu's speed."
Indeed, if Sanglu still can't believe it, who else can?
Before setting off, both Xia Weishuang and Sang Lu put on black down jackets, which will become their night clothes.Bai Qian also set up a simple alarm device in the kitchen. If someone broke in through the broken window, it would wake Bai Qian up with a piercing sound.
The room allocation is as usual, Xia Weishuang and Sang Lu share one room, Bai Qian and Mi Lele share one room, this time Wei Yunlang finally won't be wronged, he has a room by himself, no need to sleep in the living room!
……
Xia Weishuang knows the speed of Sang Lu, the wind cuts like a knife, even if she is wearing a thick down jacket and three layers of warm clothing inside, Xia Weishuang still feels cool when she is being carried and speeding at high speed .
Thinking of this, she really felt that Sang Lu was flying upwards crookedly, so the speed became a little slower, the wind stopped whipping people, and Xia Weishuang felt much stronger.
Xia Weishuang was a little surprised by the whistling sound of the wind: "You are flying?"
Sang Lu responded calmly: "Well, is it still cold?"
She stretched out her tentacles to cover Xia Weishuang, and two black fleshy wings stretched out from her back. Her whole body was black, and in addition, she was in the air, so she was considered concealed.
Xia Weishuang shook her head lightly: "It's not cold anymore, but when will you be able to fly?"
Sang Lu paused, and said, "A long time ago."
Xia Weishuang said euphemistically: "You were not very skilled at flying last time."
Sang Lu replied quietly: "I will now, but before, I forgot."
Xia Weishuang suddenly became very curious, because she seemed to have a lot of unknowns about the current Sang Lu, she grabbed one of Sang Lu's tentacles, and asked her what else she could do.
Sang Lu shook her head blankly. For her, some things can’t be done without realizing that she can do them. In fact, she didn’t pay special attention to her own skills. She just did it when she wanted to do it. It's good to get it naturally, if you can't do it, change the way.
Just like today, when I was running on the ground, I had to run at a high speed because I had to be careful not to be seen by others, but the wind was too strong and cold, and Frost couldn’t stand it, so I wanted to change to a gentler way.
So I thought of flying, so I flew.
Before that, she didn't think about whether she could fly or not.But now, since Xia Weishuang asked, Sang Lu began to think hard about what else she should do.
It seems that there is nothing worth mentioning.
Sang Lu looked down and said, "Here we are."
When we arrived at the seed laboratory, there was a large open field in the distance. There were few people here, but it was late at night, and there were still people on duty.
Sang Lu lowered her position and hid under the wall outside the laboratory.
"I have already told you the internal structure of the laboratory, do you still remember?" Xia Weishuang said after receiving an affirmative answer, "I am not convenient, you can just put me here, you go and observe, Cheng Min lives Where, make sure he is still alive."
Although Sang Lu can't say a thing or two about her abilities, Xia Weishuang knows that she can do a lot, such as body deformation, such as color-changing camouflage.
It wasn't that Xia Weishuang had to come here in person tonight, but she knew that Sang Lu wouldn't be too far away from her, so she came along.In fact, it would be safer if only Sanglu was alone.
Before Sang Lu sneaked in, Xia Weishuang reminded: "It's better to hide and bring Cheng Min out. If it doesn't work, don't startle the snake. Also, don't get hurt. Sang Lu, you know how to distinguish Cheng Min, right?" ?”
Sang Lu was silent for three seconds, recalled a bit, and said, "I know."
That's right, they did plan to kidnap Cheng Min tonight, but they didn't tell their friends, so it's not a lie.After all, if he said so, Wei Yunlang and the others should be worried to death again.
Not much nonsense, Xia Weishuang huddled in the safe corner that Sang Lu had chosen for her to meet her. She believed that Sang Lu must be safe here.
Before Sang Lu slipped into the laboratory, she reached out and touched Xia Weishuang's hair, gently and tenderly.
Xia Weishuang was stunned for a moment, her heart softened, she raised her hand to grab Sang Lu's hand, and smiled in her direction.
In the drowsy night, this smile is not obvious, and the thin woman is hidden in the winter night, as if she is connected with this silent land, gentle, broad and tolerant.
"I'll wait for you to pick me up."
"Okay, I'll come."
Sang Lu responded like this, then withdrew her hand and left quietly.
Although she didn't hear any sound at all, Xia Weishuang knew clearly that Sang Lu had already left.She sighed, held her cane and looked around, and found a relatively clean piece of dry grass to sit down and rest.
Sang Lu chose this place well, it is hidden and sheltered from the wind, Xia Weishuang can hide here without freezing, and waiting for others in the dark will not suffer.She is very calm, not only because she has adapted to the darkness, but also because she has unprecedented confidence in Sang Lu.
Her strength became stronger, and she even overcame the desire to hibernate... But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that she is becoming more gentle little by little.
In the black field of vision, Xia Weishuang saw the predicted future again.
In the far, far future, Sanglu is still by her side. They sit on the reef by the sea, with a clean and soft sandy beach behind them and a blue sea with waves in front of them.
Seagulls are circling and flying in the sky, becoming the embellishment of the blue sky. The distant sky has the most gorgeous and warm sunset glow. The orange-red sunset is falling little by little, but the sea surface still reflects its brilliance into dazzling phosphorescence.
It's like, it's like... the fiery color that burst out of life at the end.
Xia Weishuang, who had strands of pale hair in her dish, was lying in Sang Lu's arms. When she raised her head, she saw Sang Lu's eternally beautiful face.
"Sang Lu, have you ever thought about..." She stretched out her hand, stroked her long black hair, and asked her with a smile, "Have you ever thought about..."
pat.
The sound of something falling suddenly appeared outside, bringing Xia Weishuang's thoughts back to reality.
