Chapter 72: Elementary School
A convoy drove on narrow country roads lined with farmland on both sides and winding hills in the distance. The eastern part of the Silla Peninsula is an eventful mountainous area, and the basin where Daegu City is located is one of the few plains.
Yun Yang's convoy traveled north along the road next to the Hoecheon River, until it turned east at the bend of the river, passed through the valley between the two hills, and came to the Nakdong River, where it followed the banks of the Nakdong River to Daegu.
However, at this time, the convoy suddenly stopped, and Yun Yang got out of the car and asked only to learn from Xu's father that the subordinates who opened the road 500 meters in front of the convoy informed them through the walkie-talkie that the primary school in front had found the situation.
"Colonel Xu, I'll go up and check alone, you arrange for the convoy to find a safe place to park and be on guard, and no one in the car will get out of the car, and at the same time, let the brothers in front hide and don't startle the snake. ”
"I'll go with you!"
Yun Yang, who was about to leave without waiting for Father Xu's nod, was suddenly pulled from behind, and at first glance it was still Jessica, but this time Yun Yang nodded and took Jessica's hand without saying a word, and the figure disappeared from Father Xu in a flash.
Soon, Yun Yang and Jessica came to the vicinity of the elementary school that Xu's father had mentioned, this school was surrounded by mountains and forests on three sides, only the south side was connected to the residential area of Li Town, and then there was farmland outside.
Be careful, Yun Yang and Jessica did not enter the village directly, but walked through the farmland to the south into the woodland to the west of the village, and then slowly approached the village in the early morning under the cover of the woods.
Slightly closer to the village, the two heard a noisy voice, the two looked at each other silently, Yun Yang stopped to listen to the direction of the human voice, and then took Jessica to the north woods, and detoured to the back of the primary school in the depths of the village, Yun Yang carried Jessica and jumped to the top of the teaching building, which was only three stories high, to observe the situation in the village from a high place.
The two whispered a whisper on the way to the road, and Jessica wondered if there was a virus crisis like Hanyang had done before, but Yun Yang immediately dismissed the idea because he didn't feel a lot of dead air condensed in the village. In this case, it is more likely that one or a group of strongmen will take control of the village. Because of the lack of knowledge between friend and foe, Yun Yang took Jessica to change lanes and came to the commanding heights on the roof of the school.
Sure enough, hundreds of people gathered on the playground and stood in a group around the playground.
However, then the scene that caught the eye made both of them incomprehensible, and even a little reversed.
I saw two voices and shadows scuffling together in the middle of the playground, one of them was thin and small, wearing civilian clothes, but looking at his posture, he walked a fierce way, and his moves opened and closed, very much like the wild way of ordinary people fighting. The other person was tall, but he was wearing a gray monk's robe, and his head was bare after shaving, only to see that this monk walked a fierce route, punching left and right and bombarding the opponent, and the two fists and feet intersected and made a low roar.
“Mo…… What's going on?" Jessica asked subconsciously, looking at the situation in the field.
"I don't know exactly what happened, but I'm sure the skinny man is the one the teacher said had awakened his powers. Yun Yang carefully observed the duel between the two on the playground, and came to a conclusion in a moment.
"With your current eyesight, if you look closely, you should be able to see that the thin man's eyes are faintly red, and you can see that his expression is a little hideous. ”
"Well, it seems to be. "Since awakening her abilities, Jessica's physical fitness has improved, and this improvement is natural in all aspects, and it also affects her eyesight, and Jessica's eyesight is now much better than that of top snipers.
"Actually, I've heard from the teacher today that he has a guess about this state, his situation is similar to the so-called madness in film and television dramas, simply put, although he has awakened his ability, but he has no way to correctly sort out the ability he has just acquired, which affects his mind, and the symptoms he shows are similar to what people often say about mental illness......"
"Moreover...... Yun Yang's gaze was fixed on the thin man, "What he awakened should still be the ability to directly strengthen the physique, and if it is not effectively combed, the side effects will be even greater." Forehead ......"
Jessica reached out and grabbed Yun Yang's arm and looked at him steadily, which made the latter a little confused.
"That day...... Wouldn't I be like this if I hadn't been here?"
"Well, your situation is even more critical, because you are emotionally broken and awakened all of a sudden, and your ability will be out of control immediately, and if you don't control it in time, your body will not be able to withstand the power of this burst of words and disintegrate. ”
"Memories of that time...... I can't remember it at all. ”
Jessica's hands wrapped around Yun Yang's arms harder.
"It's good to have you. ”
"We're going down, and the monk seems to be running out of power. ”
The two of them came and went in the playground, and gradually the thin man's eyes became more and more red, and the power in his hands became more and more huge, although it was just a routine of the wild road, it gradually hit the monks on the opposite side and retreated one after another.
"Amitabha!" the monk kept chanting, "Donor, put down the butcher's knife and turn back!"
"Shut up, bald!" the man shouted with red eyes and a hideous face.
"Morning glory, listen to what the master said, stop!" a woman in the crowd outside the arena was supported by another middle-aged man, shouting to the thin man in the arena, and the people around her were faintly separated from the two by a certain distance.
The monk responded to the punches and persuaded, "Donor, stop, you're going to be enchanted!"
"Shut up!" The thin man's eyes became red, and a punch hit the monk's heart, but fortunately, the monk's arms were crossed in front of his heart to protect the vital point, Rao was still punched by the man, and he took more than a dozen steps backwards and fell to the ground in the playground.
"Mom! This is the strength that I have acquired with great difficulty! You actually asked me to give up?! Do you know that it is precisely by relying on this power that the people in the village are saved, and I can repay the people who have bullied our family and me in the past! Didn't the radio also say that the invasion from the north, the escape of the government, and the presence of infected people everywhere, the times have changed! And my strength is the guarantee that I can survive in this chaotic era!"
The man shouted at the women in the crowd, then stared at the crowd so hard that they took a few steps back in fright.
