Chapter 4: Xenomorphism
"Aren't you going to deal with those people who were sent, why have you been wandering around the streets now?" As the host of the power, Bai chose to follow Ye Qingfeng's side, but in this afternoon, Ye Qingfeng was just wandering around the neighborhood, and it seemed that he had forgotten about the investigators who might appear.
"Because I'm not familiar with them now, and you won't tell me about them, so I have to make preparations. Ye Qingfeng stopped after walking for a while, looked around, and replied in a low voice.
In this kind of complicated public place, no matter how you look at the conversation between Ye Qingfeng and Bai, it is his own talk, so in order to avoid the attention of others, Ye Qingfeng deliberately walked to a place where there are relatively few people before replying.
"Well, I thought you had forgotten. Bai Wu looked around, in his mental sense, it seemed that the other party's movements were faster than Qingfeng's, so, do you really have time to deal with this.
"With this power comes the emergence of containment, which I have experienced countless times in my imagination before. Walking on the street with Bai in this winter, Ye Qingfeng felt a slight urgency, but the last thing he could do was to be in a hurry, how to kill his opponent who didn't know the situation at all, this is an extremely difficult thing in itself, and his own countermeasures must not be only one.
Although he was in a hurry, when he walked in the crowd now, Qing Feng no longer had that habitual sense of loss, and he could easily distinguish his existence, because he was different from others now.
"Shujian?" A familiar figure running on the side of the street attracted Ye Qingfeng's attention, and when his eyes followed the other party, he found that the other party was Lin Shujian, who should still be in the dormitory at this time, and his expression seemed to be very panicked.
Qing Feng was not far from Lin Shujian who was running, so his shouting could naturally be heard by Lin Shujian, and the other party was also a little surprised to meet Qing Feng here, and after a second of hesitation, he ran over.
"What's wrong with you?
"There's one behind..."Lin Shujian just wanted to tell Ye Qingfeng about his experience of subverting the three views that afternoon, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a passing arrow shot straight by, startling the two who were completely defenseless.
And in the next second, the pale red sky that had just begun to show dusk suddenly seemed to be pierced by someone with a sharp blade, dyed red by endless blood, soaked into a strange bloody crimson, although there was still a little light in the sky like the end of the world, but this insignificant light had no other use except to make people more sober and afraid.
But the people under this sky did not feel fear, in the frightened eyes of the two of them Qingfeng and Shujian, they found that everything around them seemed to be still, all time and space stopped its flow, the pedestrians on the road just froze there, the birds flying in the sky hung on it in defiance of gravity, and even the fallen leaves that were drifting were stuck at the moment when it fell off... Everything stands still?!
"Oh, that's interesting. Looking at Bai's appearance, he should know what the situation is, but Qing Feng also knows that even if he asks this guy, he won't tell himself, and he won't care about his survival, so it's better to raise his vigilance to the extreme now.
"Een?" And Lin Shujian was surprised, why couldn't everyone around him move, but he and Ye Qingfeng could continue to act?
Is it because the two of them are special? I might understand that I signed a contract with the strange white wolf girl, or because... So what about Ye Qingfeng, who is completely an ordinary person? Could it be for some other reason...
"Whew!" "Whew!" "Whew!"...
The arrows of light glowing with golden-white light could be seen very clearly in this dark environment, and several arrows that pierced through the sky fell from above the sky, shooting directly at the top of the tall building on the other side of the two of them in an encirclement form, but they suddenly disappeared in mid-air, and then there was a strong wave of air and roar that could even be clearly seen rippling.
"Technetium"
A figure that swept down from a high place suddenly appeared and landed steadily beside the two of them.
"Why are you still here? Didn't you evacuate?" The figure that swept in was none other than Jiu Tian, who had just let Lin Shujian leave, and now she had recovered the clothes she had seen at the beginning, the white and red hunting clothes perfectly displayed the agility and lightness of this demon wolf girl, and the longbow with golden white light in her hand exuded her heroic posture on this apocalyptic battlefield.
"I'm leaving... It's just that you can't go as fast as you..."Lin Shujian looked at Jiutian and found that there were many wounds on her body, and it looked as if it had been cut by a sharp blade, and the crimson color was smearing on her white greasy skin, which made people feel more attracted to her heroism in addition to feeling distressed.
"Then stay away. One turned around, the bowstring was between her right fingers, and the sharp arrows that were stronger than the light of the bow body were directly formed in her hand, and she quickly pulled the bowstring, and several light arrows shot towards the top of the tall building behind her with kinetic energy beyond physical common sense, and the sound of breaking the air like a bullet made Lin Shujian and Ye Qingfeng, who had not yet reacted on the side, startled at the same time.
At the moment when the arrow left the string, the powerful wave of air generated by the arrow actually caused a slight crack on the ground behind Jiu Lean, and this kind of arrow with a power comparable to that of an anti-materiel sniper rifle actually shot continuously in Jiu Lean's hands completely regardless of the reaction resistance?!
Who the hell is she? How could she have such terrifying powers?...
Looking at Jiu Tian's back, all kinds of complicated thoughts filled Ye Qingfeng's mind for a while, no matter how advanced his thinking was, no matter how far ahead of society, in the final analysis, he was just a person who had experienced this kind of scene for the first time, and the confusion in his thinking was understandable.
"Be careful, it's coming from the other side. Lin Shujian rushed forward, and pushed away the nine tilts who had just shot arrows, and the nine tilts who were unprepared for Lin Shujian were pushed down by him, and the two of them rolled on the ground for a while, knowing that they were five meters away before stopping.
"Boom!"
And immediately after Lin Shujian's movements, above the position where Jiu Tian was just now, a huge bright red ghost hand suddenly appeared, and the void clawed fiercely, and the power of the explosion seemed to be even more powerful than Jiu Tian's arrows!
"Thank you..."Originally, there was a slight dissatisfaction at the moment when Lin Shujian pushed her down, but when she saw the power of the terrifying bloody hand bursting, she thanked Lin Shujian a little apologetically.
"Be careful, don't stare at one place in battle. Letting go of the Nine Tilt that was pressed under him, Lin Shujian felt a sharp pain in his back, and even touched the blood stains on his hand after touching it?
"It's still a destructive move inside the body..."Lin Shujian's tone was like a different person, no longer looking so flustered, on the contrary, even after knowing that he was seriously injured, he still looked calm.
"Your injury..."In this kind of battlefield that is full of crises in an instant, Jiu Tian didn't know how to treat Lin Shujian, but just now Lin Shujian obviously helped him block that move, if he hadn't moved just now, then it was very likely that he would have been torn to pieces by now.
"It's a long way off, so it's not too much of a way. Lin Shujian's gaze moved away from Jiu Lean's body after confirming that she was intact, and instead looked at the place where the pair of hellish bloody hands stretched out just now, and in that place, I don't know when there was already a person standing.
"When..."Maybe she was distracted just now because of Lin Shujian, Jiu Tian didn't notice the appearance of this person for a while, and her reaction was also very fast, she opened her bow and fingers, and locked the other party for a while.
"Oh, now, it's a bit messy..."Every time Bai's tone changed, Ye Qingfeng's mind drifted, because it meant that something interested him appeared, and things that could interest Bai were often not too good things for him.
The blood mist generated by the explosion of the bloody hand gradually dissipated, and what appeared in front of them was not the fierce and ugly-looking ghost thing they imagined, but a handsome young man?
Very casual clothes, except for a long knife held in his left hand, it can be said that there is no difference from the humans he sees on weekdays, but since he appears here now, it is enough to explain how terrifying he is.
"Yin and yang reversed, the first time I saw someone who used it on myself. The other party whispered casually, and then walked forward slowly, even if he was facing the arrow of the Nine Tilts head-on, his expression was not afraid.
"Vampire?" was extremely uncertain about the aura on the other party's body, but Lin Shujian was still very keen, and felt a breath belonging to the blood clan from it.
"Be careful, he's the ancestor of vampires..."Jiu Tian stood beside Lin Shujian, the longbow in his hand was not put away, in her image, Lin Shujian should still be the one who didn't know everything, why could he be so indifferent now?
"Suddenly, I don't seem to be interested in you. The young man who was called the ancestor of vampires by Jiu Qian lowered his head with a slight smile, and then turned his head to look at Ye Qingfeng on the side.
In other words, it was the open space next to Ye Qingfeng.
And in that place, there was nothing, what was he looking at, Lin Shujian and Jiu Tian were puzzled by the sudden change in his attitude at the same time.
"This guy... Could it be that you see Bai's existence?!" It was impossible for Jiu Tian and Lin Shujian to know what the other party was looking at, but Ye Qingfeng knew that the god of death named Bai was standing beside him at the moment, standing where the other party's eyes were looking!
And beside him, Bai's smile is also very strange, not like a helpless smile when you encounter any danger, nor like a sneer when you meet an enemy, but more like a smile when you meet an old friend?!
Could it be that the two of them know each other? If you think about it carefully, there is indeed such a possibility, after all, I can be said to know nothing about this sudden appearance of death, if there is any connection between a god of death and a vampire ancestor, which are both top-level beings, then it is completely possible.
"I need your help. It was very surprising to the three people around him, the other party, who was obviously so powerful, actually said such words to that empty area.
His tone was less of a joke and more like a serious question.
Could it be that there is something over there that they can't see? However, in the eyes of Lin Shujian and Jiu Tian, there is indeed nothing over there, could it be that the other party is talking to Ye Qingfeng?
"What if I don't want to care?" Bai's attitude was not as Ye Qingfeng expected, and he directly rejected the other party, but this also made Qingfeng's strength estimate of Bai go up a notch, after all, even if Bai called himself the god of death, but after all, it was just an abstract concept, and now the vampire ancestor who showed such a powerful power actually opened his mouth to ask him, and he was still able to refuse without changing his face, not afraid of the other party at all, does this mean that Bai's power has also reached a terrifying realm?
"Then you know what I'm going to do. However, the other party's eyes were very firm, and he did not give up because of Bai's refusal, or because of some face problem, his tone was still calm, but the meaning in his words could be felt even by Lin Shujian and Jiutian, who did not know the truth.
"It would have been exciting. Bai's tone did not change at all, and his expression when he looked at the other party was still the same, neither humble nor arrogant, plain as the wind.
"Three days. The bright red blood in the other party's eyes gradually faded away, "If you want to find him." ”
He took a deep breath obviously to relieve his emotions, then slowly turned around, and after glancing back at Ye Qingfeng, his entire body disappeared into this dark red space, and with his disappearance, the dark red in the entire sky also quickly dissipated, and finally everything changed to its original appearance.
Because the surrounding time flow returned to normal, passers-by who were originally unable to move also began to move to this area, but fortunately, Lin Shujian reacted in time, reminding Jiu Tian, who was still in a state of battle, and asked her to put away the longbow in her hand.
It's understandable that passers-by are okay in hunting clothes, but no matter how you hold a longbow, it will look very conspicuous.
"The book... Book Sword?" Jiu Tian, who was still glad for Lin Shujian's timely reaction, turned his head and suddenly saw the fallen Lin Shujian, but fortunately, Jiu Tian, who had extremely developed motor nerves, directly stepped forward and hugged him in his arms at the moment before Lin Shujian fell to the ground.
Lin Shujian's expression looked calm, but Jiu Tian, who was holding him, could feel his trembling body at the moment, and his back, where he was injured before, had begun to seep blood again, and the amount of blood had even stained Jiu Tian's hands through Shujian's clothes.
What's going on, Lin Shujian was obviously fine just now, how could he suddenly have such a serious injury in his body?
"Uh... What should you humans do if they are injured?" Since there have not been many opportunities to contact with humans, Jiu Tian can be said to be inexperienced in dealing with the injuries suffered by humans, so she had no choice but to turn her eyes to Ye Qingfeng on the side for help, although she didn't know Ye Qingfeng's identity, but judging from the incident just now, he and Shujian seem to be friends, so it should be worth trusting him.
"Subject... Sent to the hospital... Wait, you pick him up, I'll call a taxi. However, the hospital's phone was busy at such a time, and after making several calls in a row, Ye Qingfeng chose to change his thinking in time.
Fortunately, it is not the rush hour of traffic, so when Ye Qingfeng took out his mobile phone and opened the taxi ordering software, fortunately, the nearest car to them was only two hundred meters away, and before it arrived in a minute, the dark yellow taxi appeared on the side of the street where the three of them stayed.
"Get in. From what she said just now, Ye Qingfeng also saw that this girl who was with Lin Shujian should have no experience in living in human society, so he stepped forward quickly, opened the back seat door, and let Jiu Tian go in with Lin Shujian in his arms, and then he quickly sat in the passenger seat.
"Driver, can you hurry up, my friend's injury is a bit serious, and the hospital's phone is busy..."Ye Qingfeng looked at the driver who was still driving slowly, he didn't seem to realize what the situation was now.
"Your friend?" glanced at the mirror, because there was nothing unusual when the other party got into the car, so I thought there was nothing serious, and the driver was not in such a hurry to drive, in case the speeding demerit points and the driver's license would be troublesome.
But... Hey, what's the situation, how did you take such a business, if that person died in his car, then don't talk about the bad luck, if he is hyped up by those tabloid reporters, he will become a celebrity.
No, no matter what, you still have to make it look like it, in case you are stopped by the police, you can mix up with a helpful driver, so you don't have to be afraid of public opinion.
Thinking of this, the young driver, who realized what the situation was, immediately responded to Ye Qingfeng, stepped on the accelerator, and began to overtake the car at high speed with his own driving skills in the group of cars.
Although Ye Qingfeng was a little frightened by the driver's sudden way of driving like crazy, fortunately, he was still stable and not frightened, and once he was dragged out of an incident, then his mind had room to think again.
Now, he cares more about the identity of the girl next to Lin Shujian.
Obviously, she can't be a human being, and now the Grim Reaper Bai didn't follow, so Ye Qingfeng didn't know the actual strength of this girl, but judging from the fact that she was able to fight against the vampire ancestor who appeared inexplicably, her strength should not be too weak, so this is also a known force, how to use it to deal with the upcoming prosecutor, this is what Ye Qingfeng should prioritize.
And there is no doubt that her relationship with Lin Shujian is not ordinary, and it is very likely that she will listen to Lin Shujian's words, and Lin Shujian is now friends with herself, and after this incident, her relationship with him will only become closer, so maybe if you want to use this power, you can start from your relationship with Lin Shujian.
But... There is still one thing that gives Ye Qingfeng a headache, and that is Lin Shujian!
According to his image all along, Lin Shujian is not the kind of person who has any special abilities, otherwise he would not be in the middle of the day... Maybe...
Ye Qingfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and all kinds of different speculations and assumptions were playing out wildly in his mind, maybe Lin Shujian's usual actions were just to hide people's eyes, and he actually had other identities... If this assumption is made, then the girl who suddenly appeared next to him now can be explained, but as far as Lin Shujian's performance in the face of danger just now, he doesn't seem to have any real unknown power.
Although he reacted quickly and pushed away the Nine Tilts that were about to be torn apart by the bloody hand, he was still seriously injured from so far away... Is it just a keen sense of observation? or...
No, it's just the beginning, it's better not to think so much about it first, just be a worried friend Ye Qingfeng now, and the rest of the things are only to take a step first and then make temporary changes.
The hospital arrived soon, and even the driver felt very lucky, along the way, there was no traffic police to stop him for questioning, of course, at the same time he was a little disappointed, alas, there will be no reporters to ask about him.
Two different emotions were mixed, the young driver drove away silently, and it was when he left that he found that the girl who had just been in his car looked so fresh and refined, much more natural and beautiful than the commercials he had seen or the stars in the TV series who were decorated with heavy makeup...
What did you go through on this trip?
When he arrived at the hospital, Ye Qingfeng estimated that Jiutian was not familiar with the process of operation in the hospital, so he simply took this opportunity to establish a good relationship with the two, quickly helped Lin Shujian go through the hospitalization procedures, and helped him pay the hospitalization fee by the way, although she had no concept related to money, but Ye Qingfeng's actions did get her a lot of favor.
Because Ye Qingfeng's work was very efficient, soon, Lin Shujian was taken to the attending doctor's place by the nurse who came immediately.
The next thing is to be treated by the doctor, Ye Qingfeng and Jiutian, who are not proficient in medical skills, have to stay quietly outside, during which Ye Qingfeng has also observed Jiutian a few times, but the other party's reaction ability seems to be particularly keen, every time her eyes move slightly, she can arouse her vigilance, this vigilance... Sure enough, it's not human...
"My name is Leaf Light Maple, Leaf of Leaves, Easy Light, Maple of Maple, So... Can you introduce yourself? As a friend of Shujian, I didn't know that he had such an unusual girl by his side. Looking at Jiutian, Ye Qingfeng finally asked slowly, anyway, the environment here is very quiet, especially in this kind of high-level There are no miscellaneous people, and the conversation between the two does not have to be too scrupulous.
"Nine tilts, the wolf demon summoned by the book sword, Een... What happened just now, thank you for your help..."Even if Jiu Tian wanted to hide it, after showing that kind of extremely destructive combo in front of the two of them just now, Ye Qingfeng would definitely not believe his kind of excuse, and as Lin Shujian's friend, and Lin Shujian, as his own master, gave him a good feeling, so this feeling was relatively transferred to Ye Qingfeng's body.
"Wolves... "Well, now it's not just the Grim Reaper that is real, but even those mythical and legendary monsters exist in this world?" Moreover, Lin Shujian was able to summon monsters, which was simply an impossible thing in Ye Qingfeng's concept, obviously such an ordinary and ordinary person...
She didn't know that a simple self-introduction would bring such tedious thinking to Ye Qingfeng's heart, she smiled and expressed her heartfelt gratitude.
"Do you know about the book sword?" People who challenge the unknown power will always easily fall into a false sense of crisis, and the words of Jiutian just now are undoubtedly the unlimited amplification of the imaginary enemy in Ye Qingfeng's concept, and fortunately, Qingfeng's reason timely pulled his imaginative thinking, and now he urgently needs a person who knows a little bit of the situation to tell him some real situation, and the most suitable person in front of him is undoubtedly this wolf girl Jiutian, and to communicate well with her, then the effective bridge is "Lin Shujian".
"I don't know what the master's situation is, he doesn't have spiritual power in his body, but he can perform high-level summoning rituals, and his reaction ability just now is a bit beyond the feeling of ordinary people, but the overall feeling seems to be an ordinary person. Jiu Tian also seriously recalled what he knew and felt, but Ye Qingfeng didn't know that this demon wolf girl herself had not had much contact with human society, so her experience was likely to bring his judgment into a contradictory mode.
"So... Is it still an ordinary person..."It feels like this girl named Jiutian is simple-minded and doesn't lie to herself, so it means that Lin Shujian is really just an ordinary person... What kind of mess is this?!
Unlike someone who is guided by someone all the time as soon as he comes into contact, the god of death "Bai" will not help him, so now Ye Qingfeng is completely alone groping for this world that subverts his worldview and is completely unfamiliar to him, and it is difficult to reconstruct a world again in his thinking.
"Light maple... What's wrong with you?" Looking at Ye Qingfeng, who had been in deep thought since he finished speaking, Jiu Tian couldn't help but shake his hand in front of him with some curiosity.
"Ah, nothing, just thinking about something. Ye Qingfeng hurriedly agreed and smiled awkwardly, but he was a little stunned in his heart.
Even if he has such a powerful power, the limitations of this power are enough to put him to death, and his previous bold style of acting has undoubtedly pushed him to the forefront...
Ye Qingfeng is not afraid of the impending danger, his nature makes him prefer to face challenges beyond his ability rather than a spotless life, what he is worried about now is the incompleteness of information, this is the source of his current super sense of crisis, without the right information, it is impossible to formulate a battle plan that matches the situation.
Due to his blind confidence at the beginning, he has now fallen into a dangerous situation of passivity...
Fortunately... A faint smile crossed the corner of Ye Qingfeng's mouth, as long as he realized it, then it was not too late, and his next plan already had a preliminary eyebrow.
