Chapter 40 I promise
The footsteps outside sounded again. But this time it was gradually moving away.
The fear and fear also faded with the sound of footsteps, and Yu Qingqing's hand shrank. Because at this time she had the heart to think about something-
This is her first time meeting with her "Brother Li Zhen".
The strong and complex emotions made the little girl not know what to say. At this moment, all of her bravery and boldness were thrown out of the sky. She felt a little dizzy - not only because of those emotions, but also because of the lack of oxygen in the cave.
She bit her lip and tried to talk to this familiar and unfamiliar brother Li Zhen for the first time: "I... can't breathe..."
Li Zhen shook her hand and asked softly: "Can you hold on for another minute?"
Yu Qingqing said "um". Li Zhen raised his other hand and touched her hair, as if to distract her from her attention: "He will come back later. No one knows him better than me."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a heavy sound of falling to the ground came from outside the cave. Then the mud was stomping and rustled, and the man was wandering around the corpse buried for a long time and then flew away again.
Li Zhen gasped in a low voice: "Okay, Qingqing, let your friends dig the hole."
Yu Qingqing quickly patted the "big man" on the arm: "Go out quickly!"
The same stuffy alien received the command and howled in relief. Then he suddenly straightened his waist, his two thick arms dancing like a windmill, and the wet mud of the big buns splashed outside, and a large hole was dug in the blink of an eye.
Fresh air came in. Yu Qingqing took a big breath, then looked down at the people around him.
In fact, half of Li Zhen's body was buried under the soil, only the part above her shoulders was exposed. He was also looking at the little girl. When Li Zhen was still the same head, Qingqing only thought, "Run Run, don't be caught by bad people." Now that she is temporarily out of danger, she suddenly feels a little at a loss - she doesn't know what she should say.
Just after looking at each other in the dim skylight for a while, Yu Qingqing squatted down with a whisper: "You, can't you move yet?"
She felt a little panicked, because Li Zhen was staring at her silver eyes, the silver-white small scales beside her eyes, and the fine teeth in her mouth. She felt her eyes, felt panic in her heart, and her voice was filled with crying.
Li Zhen slowly lifted his hand from the wet mud and put it on Yu Qingqing's hand, and then glanced at the "big man" next to him.
That's a heterogeneity.
In fact, when he was in the cave, he felt the extraordinary aura on both bodies. If his head hadn't barely recovered his consciousness and knew that the little girl was trying to rescue him, he would almost think that "Li Zhen" was colluding with the Gate of Truth and selling himself to the other party.
However, he also heard a familiar voice - the voice once accompanied him in the most difficult period and became the only channel for him to connect with the outside world. It was the voice that made him feel that he was not alone and had a crush on his life, and rekindled the confidence to break out of the ground and regenerate himself as a human being.
And the sound appeared in my ears again.
He had never seen this little girl, but he kept her voice in his heart.
Yu Qingqing blinked in panic - she didn't want Li Zhen to see her unique eyes, but she couldn't simply close her eyes.
Then she heard her "Brother Li Zhen" say, "Is it they who made you like this?"
The sound is low, but it is chilling.
Yu Qingqing gritted her teeth and silently dragged Li Zhen's body outward. Li Zhen finally had some strength to cooperate with the little girl to get rid of the shackles of the soil and leaned obliquely against the wall of the cave.
Then Yu Qingqing stood in front of him biting her lips like a child who did something wrong. After a while, he looked up at Li Zhen: "No, it's me... I want to become like this myself."
"I met one, one... they called it the Holy Spirit, and the man asked me if I wanted to be more powerful."
"I want to run out, I want to go home, so I promised it. Then I..."
In fact, when he talked about this, Li Zhen probably already knew what was going on. The "Holy Spirit", or every species close to the complete body, can give its own power to an ordinary person. It is not contaminated as a alien species, but a form between species and humans.
Such existence can also transform ordinary people into alien species, but have a clear mindset. And what the gate of truth pursues may be such a secret - what they call the Garden of Eden.
But in a sense, Li Zhen, who is also a species, knows that this power of being "given" is not at all cost. In fact, the "Holy Spirit" transforms the power of a considerable number of ordinary people into his "gift" in some way and gives it to the recipient.
This is a power built on the life of ordinary people.
There was no absolute "boundary" in his heart. Because there were alternatives among the species, such as Yinglong, such as Huangdi. So he stretched out his hand and touched the silver scales on Yu Qingqing's face, and smiled gently: "So do you like what you are like now?"
Yu Qingqing widened his eyes in surprise. After a long time, he turned around and looked at the "big man" beside him, and whispered: "This way I can be with him."
Li Zhen smiled: "If you like it, you'll still be like this."
Then he knelt up with difficulty, grabbed Yu Qingqing's shoulder with both hands, looked at her big eyes, and whispered: "I should have gone to find you early. It's not good for me."
Yu Qingqing pouted and plunged his mouth into his arms and started crying. The little girl cried very quietly, as if she had been used to sobbing alone in the corner. Li Zhen thought about it and slowly stroked her hand on top of her head, and it was smooth.
"Little guy, you saved me again."
Yu Qingqing finally burst into tears, and after a while, he thrust and said, "My parents are dead--"
Li Zhen hugged her tightly with his lips and patted her back gently: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm there. From today on, no one can bully you."
"I promise."
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Three days later. Ling County.
This was originally a county town located near the Yellow Emperor Mausoleum. On the night when Yinglong left wildly, the small city was lucky enough to have only one swept by a giant dragon. But even this swept destroyed a considerable number of buildings - now it looks like a declining city after the Doomsday Catastrophe, with broken bricks and tiles everywhere on the streets.
Li Zhen spent 2,000 yuan to rent a small courtyard on the edge of the abandoned city.
The money was found in that room and in the other clothes of "myself". A certain clone actually carried a huge sum of 10,000 yuan on his body.
However, the "huge money" should be compared with the old days. At this time, the purchasing power of 10,000 yuan is only equivalent to the previous one.
Li Zhen leaned against the head of the bed and drank a bowl of porridge, while Yu Qingqing sat on the small stool and also held a bowl of porridge.
At this time, Li Zhen widened his eyes for the fourth time, and after a while, he let out a long sigh and said the words he said several times: "Why are you so brave?"
Yu Qingqing smiled, his silver eyes shining: "Actually you don't know, those alien species are also very obedient. At that time, I told them to rush in ten rows but don't eat people, so they will be obedient. I also told them to pick them up and throw them forward when they see their companions die--"
"At first, those people would check if there were some living, but then they didn't care. Then I asked the big man to jump over first, and then let one throw me over too - so the big man caught me! Then many alien species ran forward one after another, and those people were silly. I don't think they understood why alien species just ran away and didn't eat people. After I hid them and I, they had already run far away-"
She has finished her experience over the past year and is talking about how she broke through the US military’s defense line.
The originally terrifying process seemed to be playing house in her mouth. Li Zhen felt that her heart hurt slightly - what a helpless and painful experience would have to have such an optimistic attitude after gaining "freedom"?
But he didn't want to hold the little girl in his arms like he did two days ago - because that would only make the two people sadder. Many things have been accumulated in her heart, and only time and warmth can slowly clear them, or if neither can be done, they may also become more precious things - the other person becomes strong and rational and becomes an island.
So Li Zhen raised the corners of his mouth: "What about that dragon? How did you meet that dragon?"
Yu Qingqing frowned and thought for a while: "It doesn't seem that I met... it came to me. The big man and I both chose places where no one was going, and I also wanted the big man to take me back..."
She stuck out her tongue: "I realized it was so far away later. Then we two arrived at the beach and the dragon came out of the sky!"
Li Zhen thought for a while, put the bowl on the bedside table, and asked seriously: "I guess - then you were not afraid when you saw the dragon, right?"
Yu Qingqing grinned and showed a row of sharp teeth: "I'm sure I won't be afraid, that's a dragon! Dragons are good people, I've known that there are dragons for a long time. We are all descendants of dragons..."
"Oh, oh!" Li Zhen nodded helplessly. In fact, he wanted to doubt whether this was a... rare disease. The little girl was so brave. Even if she was shocked when she saw the legendary creature, she could be at ease. But on the other hand, she was afraid of the closed dark room like many ordinary little girls, and she said that she would feel like a ghost.
But when it comes to ghosts...
