Chapter 52: Departure
The dark clouds dispersed, and Ling Long woke up again and could faintly see the white belly of the fish in the east.
In the dilapidated street corner, Ling Long pillowed Xu Mengyao's knees, silently staring at the dark blue sky in a daze, he felt as if he had spent countless four seasons in a dream.
Cold, scorching, alternating, in the dream, there is the warm sun of the scorching sun, and there is also the biting winter, but there is no longer the warmth of family reunion......
"You're finally awake......"
On the side, the cat master was in rags, leaning on a dilapidated wall, looking at Ling Long who was awake, and laughed unconsciously.
Xu Mengyao woke up when she heard the sound, accidentally met Ling Long's smiling eyes, and quickly turned her head subconsciously.
The breeze swept through the thin bodies of the three of them, and Ling Long couldn't help but shudder: "It's so cold today!"
"It's you who poured out the fire yourself......" Xu Mengyao smiled and pushed Ling Long away, "When you wake up, quickly dodge, my legs are numb!"
Scratching his head, Ling Long laughed embarrassedly twice, and quickly got up, wanting to move his body briefly, but found that his legs were shaking all the time, and his body was soft except for being able to barely stand.
"Within a few days of coming here, I helped X City solve a ** annoyance...... Yours is the real thing. ”
The cat master woke up by himself shortly after Ling Long fell into a coma, and then listened to Xu Mengyao tell the cause and effect of the whole thing, while waiting for Ling Long to wake up, he also thought about how to deal with the aftermath of this incident.
Ling Long didn't know whether the cat master was mocking himself or praising himself with this sentence, and he couldn't say anything for a long time.
As soon as he raised his hand, Ling Long suddenly found that his arms were covered with dark red lines, which looked terrifying, as if the blood vessels in his skin were bursting up layer by layer around his entire arm!
"Listen to her, you don't know about this ability engraving yourself?"
The cat master fiddled with the karmic fire red lotus pendant in his hand, and at the same time handed the magnetic ring to Ling Long's hand.
Putting the magnetic ring on the index finger of his right hand, Ling Long took out the Longyan Ancient Jade in his pocket, and it was still the same round and pitch-black appearance.
"Back then, I followed Xu Mengyao's father to research the secret archives of Hurricane City, and there was a case related to the ability engraving...... But I'm only in charge of checking people, and he's in charge of research, so I only scratch the surface of this ability engraving. ”
The cat master looked at the dark strange stone and sighed: "Perhaps, the secret of this ability engraved is really related to this ancient jade in your hand, which can make ordinary people evolve into ...... ability."
Ling Long bit his lip, his head was a mess.
Although he didn't remember what happened before his death, judging from his current intact body, he didn't need to think about it to know that he was definitely going away again under the guidance of this strange stone.
"Judging from the current situation, you have borrowed the power of the ancient jade twice, and now the ability mark on your arm has begun to appear...... If I continue to use it......"
"I won't...... Completely become that guy, right?"
Master Mao smiled slightly: "There is this possibility, or it will be directly reduced to a monster with special abilities, and it will definitely develop in a bad direction anyway...... You know what I mean, right?"
Ling Long nodded: As a last resort, this black stone must not be used again...... This is a mysterious force that is still incomprehensible to science, whether it is the body and mind being devoured by the ability mark, or turning into a monster, it is not acceptable to oneself.
"If only my dad were here...... He has a deep understanding of the structural theories of these abilities, and he might be able to help you. ”
Xu Mengyao couldn't help but feel slightly red in her eyes when she thought that her father had disappeared for more than a month, and she was very sad.
"That's what I'm going to say to you. ”
The cat master leaned against the wall and got up, looked at Ling Long and the others, and said in a serious tone: "Even if this is a dispute area, if there is such a big movement, the high-level officials of X City will not sit idly by, not to mention that it is the second princess of the Wu family who dies......"
"That's her own fault!" Xu Mengyao said indignantly.
"But fairness is not on your side, as you know...... And, even if the senior leaders are not to blame for the past, do you think you will be able to live a stable life in the future?"
The cat master sighed and shook his head: "The Wu family will not let you go, if I guess correctly, at the latest this afternoon, the streets and alleys of the dispute area will be plastered with reward orders about you......"
Ling Long knew that what the cat master said was right, he had already seen how extreme the Wu family's methods were, and just one Wu You had almost driven them to a dead end, not to mention that she also had an older sister......
"So what are we going to do?"
When Xu Mengyao heard that the Wu family was going to be wiped out, her face became ugly, and she naturally knew more about the horror of the Wu family than Ling Long.
Master Mao seemed to have a plan in mind, and said directly: "Leave X City." ”
"Leave, where are you going?" Xu Mengyao never seemed to want to leave the country, not to mention that her father had disappeared mysteriously and was not found.
"Before leaving, your father came to me privately and talked to me about three things. ”
The cat master seemed to recall the scene of the day, and slowly spoke: "First, he asked me to take good care of you during the time he left, but you have been free and easy since you were a child, and I didn't force it too much...... The second thing he told me was that if something went wrong in City X one day, I would go to City A in Hurricane City to find him. ”
"City A?" Although Xu Mengyao has never been there, she has also learned about that city on weekdays, which is known as the capital of science and technology.
"But if the Wu family directly reports Wu You's death to the top of X City, even if we flee to other cities, it's useless. "Ling Long knows that the five cities have a powerful system for punishing crimes, if a city issues a wanted warrant, the five major cities will all receive orders to arrest them at the same time, and there is no escape!
Hearing Ling Long ask, the cat master shook his head and explained: "You can rest assured that their Wu family is full of evil, and they have always been a thorn in the side of the high-level leaders of the Heping District, they dare not negotiate conditions with those leaders, for the current Wu family, the development of the family is far greater than personal interests." ”
Nodding in agreement with the cat master's statement, Ling Long also felt that his body had regained a little strength, and he simply moved his stiff body.
"Aren't there three things?" Xu Mengyao's big eyes blinked, "What about the third one?"
"The third ......" Master Mao stretched out his hand and patted Xu Mengyao's cute little head, "It's just that I want to guard the first two things as top secrets, and no one can say anything, including you, his favorite daughter......"
