Chapter 239: I Don't Dare Anymore
Xiang Kun lay on the ground for more than ten minutes, and only after his body had basically recovered did he get up.
The rain and snow are slowly drifting in the sky, and the temperature has dropped a lot, but compared to the raging lightning storm just now, this rain and snow has an inexplicable sense of warmth?
The corners of Xiang Kun's mouth still had a smile that had not yet been erased.
The "flight" that has just been in the air for more than a minute can be said to be after his mutation...... No, it's when he becomes an adult...... It's not right, it should be said that it is the coolest and happiest experience in his life.
After triggering the lightning storm, flying through thunder and lightning, on the verge of losing control in the sky, his attention was highly concentrated, and he kept reacting in an instant, which gave him the ultimate pleasure in the extreme danger of life and death and the sense of accomplishment of conquering the sky and lightning.
Whether it is a man or a woman, whether it is an old man or a child, Xiang Kun feels that the hope for flight is engraved into the genes.
Even before the mutation, Xiang Kun, who had a fear of heights, had fantasized about having the ability to fly.
Xiang Kun never thought that it would be so cool to be able to fly directly in the air without relying on foreign objects.
In addition to flying, the more than one minute just now, it also allowed him to regrow his long-lost "hair". Of course, Xiang Kun knew that that thing was not the same thing as ordinary hair in the strict sense.
Rather than "hair", they are more like functional tissues that help him concentrate and control the electrical charges around his body, thereby controlling the direction and speed of flight.
However, it is obvious that they need to be driven by a specific electric field environment and sufficient electrical energy to appear, and when they appear, Xiang Kun can clearly perceive them, and use them to control the charge around him to a certain extent, and slightly control the direction.
But when the large-scale discharge of the clouds ended, and the "electrical energy" around the body was also consumed, the hair disappeared directly.
Now Xiang Kun can't perceive their existence, they are not "retracted" back into the brain, but directly annihilated.
The last time he "flew a test", the light clusters that gathered around him were like his shadows, completely uncontrollable and imperceptible. However, the faint aperture around the body just now can be affected and controlled to a certain extent through "hair". This should be the functional organization that the body has evolved in order to realize the ability to "fly with electricity" in combination with the "needs" raised by the training guidance after the recent blood-drinking mutation.
Xiang Kun touched his still smooth head, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful, he didn't have time to think about it in the air, and he couldn't think about it at all, but now he couldn't help it, is there any way to keep that hair? It's not necessary to be more than a meter long, just have a 2 or 3cm.
In the snow and rain, Xiang Kun, who was barefoot, walked back while thinking.
Now that the goal of this experiment has been accomplished, there is no need to continue to stay.
Walking in the forest, looking at the firelight slowly extinguishing in the rain and snow in the distance, recalling the earth-shattering lightning storm just now, Xiang Kun also frowned slightly.
Obviously, this sudden lightning storm and large-scale explosive discharge between the clouds and the earth were caused by him.
But to be honest, he still hasn't figured out how he did it.
The only thing he could know was to perceive the changes in the electric field in the atmosphere and the movement trend of electric charges between the clouds and the earth, and then see the right time and throw himself into the air with all his might.
The subsequent "charging" is a bit like a mobile phone that happened to be thrown on the wireless charging dock, he just passively accepts and gathers the charge, as for how to converge, I don't understand.
A bare-bottomed surfer was rushing at the head of the wave, and suddenly found that the wave had turned into a tsunami.
He's also confused!
In the final analysis, Xiang Kun believes that this is due to his lack of understanding and control of ability.
After going back, you should still find more relevant articles and materials to see, and then know why this short-term high-intensity thunderstorm phenomenon will occur, and then deduce the role and impact that you may play in it according to its principle.
He was also a little glad that he chose to test in this uninhabited mountainous area, otherwise it would not be in the middle of the city, even in the suburbs, and it might affect innocent people.
Without first figuring out how to detonate such a large-scale lightning storm, Xiang Kun didn't dare to fly in a place where there were people for the time being.
He didn't worry about people who noticed the vision coming to find him, in this kind of deep mountains and old forests, especially in the dark night, his advantage is too great, super vision plus night vision mode and infrared thermal imaging mode switching, and other strong senses, can allow him to maintain the effect of "full map", always able to spot other creatures first, even machines can't escape his senses.
For example, there was a passenger plane flying in the distance just now, although it was very far away, but he also noticed it, and quickly assessed the possibility of the people on the plane spotting him in his mind.
Judging from the angle and the visual situation at the time, although Xiang Kun had a faint halo around him when he was in the air, and it was still bright and dark, because the distance was too far and the altitude was different, the cumulonimbus clouds covered most of the vision in that direction, and there was lightning everywhere at that time, so it was difficult for the naked eye to notice him in flight.
Even if you notice, you can't tell what it is.
Unless someone happens to take a picture with the right equipment, look back and zoom in, it is possible to find out.
But at most, it was just seeing a strangely shaped "flying object", after all, the "long hair" on the back of his head was straight and open, and if he was really photographed and found, it is estimated that guessing that it is a "flying squid" is more likely than guessing people.
When he was hurrying in the middle of the night, Xiang Kun sensed the location of the bone that had established a supersensory connection, and it was still in the Qinling Mountains, and compared to the previous direction of movement, he was still walking out, but the speed was really slow. It is speculated that there may have been too many things to bring out in the mountains, and it was impossible to carry them quickly. After all, many places over there are very difficult to navigate, and not everyone can ignore the terrain like Xiang Kun, who can open the way better than a wild boar and climb a tree better than a monkey.
After sensing the rabbit wood carving again, there was still no feedback, and it was clear that the people were still firmly carrying out the strategy of staying away from the wood carving while sleeping.
Xiang Kun wasn't worried about what they could study after the wood carving was brought back.
Even if there are vampires with similar abilities in Shenxing Technology, judging from Xiang Kun's research on these items that establish various connections, it is very unlikely that they want to try to perceive him in reverse through these items - in fact, he would like the other party to do so, because according to his understanding, he has absolute authority in the sensing system he has established through various "supersensory connections" and "emotional injection" items. If the other party has a similar perception ability and is tempted by his items, it is instead a chance for Xiang Kun to get a reverse probe, and it will definitely be the other party who is exposed first.
Compared with wood carvings and bones, Xiang Kun is more worried about the people behind the "Shenxing Technology" who know the truth about mutant creatures and vampires, and after judging that the mutated creatures in the Qinling Mountains have been killed by vampires from another human society, they will find relevant information through other social means.
So he also recalled and retrieved the process of going to the Qinling no man's land and leaving again.
The car to the town is a temporary private car near the station, and the payment is also cash, which is unlikely to leave any clues;
When I arrived in the town, I didn't stay overnight, so I didn't leave any identification;
He went into the hotel in the town, pretended to go to the toilet, and then collected all kinds of information through his super senses, in the process he kept his face straight from being photographed by the surveillance;
When he entered the mountain, he walked directly, did not pass through the entrance of any scenic spot, and was not seen by anyone;
Because of his physical properties, he does not leave any body tissue for human acquisition;
The torn clothes in the mountains were also brought back, and the footprints left behind, the traces of the fight with the mutant spiders, etc., should have been almost destroyed under the heavy rain for several days in the future.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there are "fish that slip through the net", after all, he did not deal with them one by one, it is impossible to do it.
Damaged clothing may also have small fragments or fibers remaining, but the chances of finding it are too small.
And even if these are found, it is still difficult to locate him, unless there is already some suspicion about him as a person, it can be verified through those auxiliary evidence.
However, with the style of acting in Shenxing Technology that he observed during this time, he still can't be careless.
Maybe they have other unconventional methods to investigate the "suspected target", and without knowing their methods, no matter how careful Xiang Kun's thinking is, it is impossible to guess what they will do and to what extent.
Therefore, after the "bones" leave the Qinling no man's land, arrive at the final destination, and finally confirm the location, Xiang Kun will find a way to explore it to see if there is a way to "infiltrate" it, know himself and the enemy, and be invincible.
Of course, on the premise of ensuring your own safety.
Xiang Kun, who was speeding quickly on the mountain road at night, suddenly stopped, seemed to feel something, and looked up at the night sky.
......
Star City.
Liu Shiling is painting in her room, which is the homework assigned by the kindergarten teacher today, asking them to draw the winter in their minds.
Liu Shiling started painting after eating, and she had already painted five of them, but she was not satisfied with all of them, and finally painted them all together, tore them off and threw them in the trash.
She really couldn't pay attention to the painting, not because she was playful and didn't want to complete her homework well, but because at this time in the living room at home, her father, who had not seen her for almost a month, had just come home and was arguing with her mother, and the more noisy it became, the louder and louder it became.
Although her mother told her to stay in the room and draw, she was not allowed to go out until she finished painting, but she really couldn't draw, even if the door was closed, the sound of the quarrel outside still came to her ears clearly.
In the other hand, which was not holding the brush, the coin flew between the fingers, but it lost its usual stability, and it seemed as if it would fall off the finger and fall to the ground at any moment.
"You stupid!!" with an angry scolding, the sound of a cup breaking rang out in the living room.
Liu Shiling, who was frightened by this voice, finally couldn't help it, she held the coin casually, opened the door and rushed out, standing in front of her father, who was angry and ready to scold something, opened her arms, and said loudly: "You are not allowed to scold your mother!"
The middle-aged man with a dark complexion and a hideous expression was about to blurt out the dirty words, but after seeing his daughter, he finally held back.
Shiling's mother scolded angrily: "Who told you to come out? Go back to the house! The adult's business has nothing to do with you! Don't be fooled!" but her voice was a little choked.
Liu Shiling looked up at her mother, who was flushed and angry, bit her lower lip, and finally walked back to the room with her head down.
The quarrel outside continued, but the voice was a little quieter, and Liu Shiling knew that it was not that father and mother were arguing less fiercely, but that they went to the balcony.
She sat in the room for a while, still unable to do anything, except that her fingers were subconsciously flipping through the coins.
Then, as if she had made a decision, she grabbed the coin, began to pick up her little red satchel and pack her things, stuffed a few clothes, a few origami, a small red flashlight, and a small long box containing her special chopsticks, and left the room with her bag.
Dad and Mom were arguing on the balcony and didn't see her, she stood at the door of the room and watched for a while, then lowered her head and carried her schoolbag to open the door and walked out of the house.
took the elevator downstairs, left the community, walked a few hundred meters, and stood on the roadside sidewalk that was extremely deserted and half-manned in the middle of the night, but Liu Shiling slowly stopped.
The first reaction in her mind just now was to leave the house temporarily and avoid the quarrel between her parents and her parents, and the only place she thought of was to find her bald uncle.
But after walking here, she suddenly remembered that she forgot to bring money, how to take a taxi without money, and how to get to the city where her bald uncle is located without taking a car?
And she doesn't have a mobile phone, so she can't contact her bald uncle.
This season, at this point in time, the temperature in Star City is close to zero, and a cold wind blows at night, which makes people can't help but shrink their necks and stomp their feet, and Liu Shiling is now only wearing a thin red sweater and red khaki pants, and even forgot to wear a jacket.
I just went downstairs with a wave of emotion, and I didn't feel anything, but now I stood still, but I couldn't help but shiver with cold, and my snot wanted to come out.
Snorting, the little chubby girl looked back at the neighborhood in the distance, hesitating whether to go home or not, and now sneaking back, Mom and Dad may still be arguing on the balcony, not realizing that she just "ran away from home", she can quietly go back to the room and act as if nothing happened.
Hey, when I came out, it seemed that the door was locked, and the downstairs door had to be opened by swiping a card.
The little chubby girl scratched her head, and her heart struggled for a while.
Just as she was hesitating, she suddenly noticed a stray uncle with a beard and a tattered cotton jacket in the bus stop diagonally opposite her.
Liu Shiling's heart pounded, remembering the stories that her mother told her about children being taken away by bad people in order to keep her from running around, and her feet were a little soft.
Just when she wanted to move, she suddenly heard a faint sound of thunder, she looked up in surprise, the night sky above her head did not change, she could even see the moon, there was no rain?
In the past, Liu Shiling would be scared when she heard thunder, she was not a brave child.
But when she heard the thunder today, she didn't feel a little scared, but had an inexplicable curiosity, wanting to hear it more clearly.
The thunder rumbled, as far as it seemed near, and one after another, it inexplicably made her feel at ease, and when she looked at the wandering uncle across the street, she was no longer afraid.
And she didn't know why, she saw that the uncle's eyes were staring at her, as if it was not evil, but afraid?
What is Uncle afraid of?
The rumbling thunder gradually stopped, Liu Shiling suddenly looked down at the coin she had been holding in her hand, she clenched her fist weakly, the center of the fist was upward, put her thumb under the coin, and then bounced the coin up with a bang.
She often does this action, bounce the coin up 20 or 30 centimeters and then fall down and pat it on the back of her hand, so that other children can guess the pros and cons, which is a game she often plays with people in kindergarten, and she can always win.
But this time, the coin bounced up and flew straight into the air, flying higher and higher.
Liu Shiling raised her head, squinted her eyes, and looked at the coins that flew higher and higher, and finally almost couldn't see the hovering coin, revealing a happy smile.
She retracted her gaze, looked at the homeless uncle across the street, pointed to the top of her head, and shouted, "Uncle!
"Ah?...... Ah!!" However, to Liu Shiling's surprise, the uncle ran away screaming loudly at the same time as she looked over, stumbling all the way, as if he had seen something terrible?
Liu Shiling, who had been paying attention to the coin just now, didn't notice that the moment she flicked the coin, the surrounding street lights were all constantly changing in light and dark, and the closer she was, the greater the change of the street lights.
The homeless uncle who had drunk a lot of wine couldn't see the coin in her hand at that distance, only the little girl in red clothes and carrying a red schoolbag, in a flickering street lamp, made a weird thumbs-up gesture to him, and then looked up at the sky, and looked at him with a crazy smile.
Remembering the "true story" he had heard when he was young, Uncle Tramp could no longer suppress his fear and ran away.
Liu Shiling looked at the back that disappeared around the corner at the end of the street suspiciously, and when she was about to look up at the coin hovering in the air, the coin had already fallen in front of her.
When leaning over to pick up the coin, Liu Shiling heard a hiss behind him and shouted: "Liu Shiling!!"
Liu Shiling subconsciously shrank her neck, got up and turned back, lowered her head, and put her legs together, like a quail that had just been fished out of the water, thinking about how to admit her mistake in order to relieve her mother's thunderous anger.
But Shiling's mother, who ran at an athlete-like speed of 100 meters, knelt directly on one knee on the ground, hugged her into her arms, and said while crying: "Baby, I'm sorry, my mother is wrong, don't leave my mother, my mother won't kill you in the future......"
Liu Shiling, who was racking her brains to think of countermeasures, also cried all of a sudden, and shouted: "Mom, I'm sorry, I don't dare anymore...... Woo-...... I'm snotty, Mom, I'm ......so cold."
