Chapter 42: Change Happens Faster Than Plan
There is no doubt that otaku are better at brain supplementation!
Among them, those who can make up a forest from a seed brain are considered entry-level, those who can make up all things from a seed brain and have a grand plan to dominate the industry are considered to be passing, and those who can make up the stars and seas are shining with all races, that is the greatest one, if the brain makes up for the death of all things and the collapse of the universe, it is a madman.
After reading books all day, Xu Xingkong's brain that seemed to have evolved was also a little groggy, no longer clear when he woke up in the morning, and his mind was tumbling around with demons, monsters, strange flowers and plants, and of course, the world built by these strange and mysterious things, as well as the Terran monsters who were fighting for domination in that world.
Xu Xingkong didn't know when he fell asleep, and he didn't know when he fell into an extremely real dream, the things in the dream were vivid, not like his own brain was fictional at all, more like he had experienced it personally, perhaps, Xu Xingkong was the reincarnation of an ancient demon hunter, but this kind of too sensational thing even if the person concerned was afraid and didn't dare to take it seriously.
Xu Xingkong was awakened by the ringing of his mobile phone, and he realized that he had fallen asleep on the table, and after waking up, his neck was sore, and there was a lot of saliva, and even a small piece of the precious book was soaked.
Xu Xingkong embarrassedly wiped his saliva with his sleeve, then grabbed the phone and was shocked for a moment before connecting.
"Miss Lin, you're not sick, it's three o'clock in the middle of the night, what are you going to do?
"Without further ado, come to Dongyu Sanatorium immediately. ”
Before Xu Xingkong's whining words were finished, Lin Xiaofeng had already interrupted Xu Xingkong simply and rudely, and gave an unquestionable order in a cold tone.
Xu Xingkong hesitated, he still didn't dare to disrespect Lin Xiaofeng's instructions, even if his opinion of Yushan Yuzhai was getting worse and worse, but he knew very well that now he didn't have the capital to fight against Yushan Yuzhai at all, and it was dangerous to even think about it, this kind of thought must be hidden deep in the deepest part of his heart, and he must not leak the slightest, otherwise his death will be a small matter, and the harm to his family will be big.
"Then you have to tell me where the Dongyu Sanatorium is, right?"
"I'll give you a shared location, and I'll go now. ”
After speaking, Lin Xiaofeng simply hung up the phone, and before Xu Xingkong could pack up the books on the desktop, the mobile phone had already sounded, needless to say, it must have been sent by location sharing information.
Xu Xingkong hurriedly packed his things, put on his coat and went out.
Pengcheng is a city that never sleeps, even if it was three o'clock in the middle of the night, it didn't take long for Xu Xingkong to stop a taxi, and the driver heard the address reported by Xu Xingkong, and hesitated for a while before starting the car.
Xu Xingkong naturally knew why the driver hesitated, because this Dongyu Sanatorium was far away from the city, in the Linhai Mountains east of Yantian Port in the east, although that area is now gradually being developed as high-end leisure residential land, but after all, it is a suburb, and it is still a little risky to run out of the urban area at this point.
Along the way, Xu Xingkong was too lazy to talk to the driver, leaned on the back seat with his eyes closed and pretended to sleep, pretending not to see the cautious gaze cast by the driver from time to time, but he was wondering what the witch was calling him for in the middle of the night.
In the early hours of the morning, the road that is usually impassable is frighteningly smooth, and the journey of more than 30 kilometers is only half an hour, and through the car window you can already see a large area of brightly lit buildings, and here, the driver's nervous look is finally relieved.
The car was intercepted by the security guards at the gate, and the two security guards came up left and right to observe, and then nodded at Xu Xingkong, then opened the door and put the taxi in, and the driver looked at Xu Xingkong strangely from the rearview mirror, and his face was very curious.
Xu Xingkong got out of the car, paid the fare, and was about to go to the brightly lit triage hall to ask the security guard on duty, when a man had already greeted him from the hall.
"Xu Xingkong, Mr. Xu?"
"It's me, you're it"
"It was Miss Lin Lin who ordered me to come and greet you, please come with me. ”
The man was about thirty or forty years old, with a strong figure, a shrewd and capable face, Xu Xingkong guessed that this person might also be a person from Yushan Yuzhai, but he didn't know what his identity was, Xu Xingkong didn't dare to ask more, and people themselves wouldn't say much, and the two of them quickly walked into the hospital lobby one after the other.
Passing through the lobby, I walked out of this building again, walked along a path with a little dim light for a while, and then entered another building, and there were also two security guards in the lobby of this building, who seemed to be very energetic, but they didn't come forward to ask Xu Xingkong and the person who led the way, just looked at it vigilantly.
Entering the elevator, the man who led the way stood alone with Xu Xingkong, and finally smiled and said, "Miss Lin is waiting for you above." ”
"Oh, forget it, there don't seem to be many people here?"
"Yes, there aren't many people in this nursing home right now, and there are no family visits here after a while, so it's quiet at night. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded, in fact, Xu Xingkong said the opposite, what he wanted to say about the security guards who stood in the light and hid in the dark, as if there were security guards in the entire nursing home, fortunately, under the real vision, these security guards presented colors that looked pleasing to the eye, otherwise Xu Xingkong would definitely turn around and run.
The man who led the way smiled and didn't say anything, as if he didn't understand Xu Xingkong's words, maybe pretending not to understand.
While speaking, the elevator had stopped on the fourth floor, and the two of them got out of the elevator, and the guide took a little half a step forward, quickly took Xu Xingkong to a ward, and reached out and knocked on the thick door.
"Miss Lin, Mr. Xu has arrived. ”
"Come in, you go and get some food. ”
"Yes, Mr. Xu, please. ”
The guide pushed the door open, Xu Xingkong deliberately looked at the side of the door, and sure enough, it was a very thick door, which looked stronger than the security door in his home.
The guide had no intention of going in, Xu Xingkong had no choice but to step into the room by himself, and then saw Lin Xiaofeng sitting on a single sofa with his head down and playing with his mobile phone, not caring about Xu Xingkong who came from afar.
"Come in and sit. ”
Lin Xiaofeng pressed the phone a few more times, then turned off the mobile phone and put it on the armrest at hand, pointed to the single sofa on the other side of the coffee table with his chin and said casually.
Xu Xingkong quickly took a large number of rooms, this is a ward, yes, the ward is divided into two parts, the inner room is a hospital bed and some equipment, the middle is separated by a glass wall, the outer room has two small sofas and a small coffee table, there is a small bed against the wall, there is a door to the balcony next to the bed, through the glass on the door, you can see a small garden downstairs and the building opposite.
Xu Xingkong did not rush to sit down, but looked in the direction of the inner hospital bed, which seemed to have a person lying on it, at least from the life monitor, the heartbeat pattern could be seen.
"Miss Lin, who is this?"
Xu Xingkong asked, and Lin Xiaofeng pointed to the sofa.
"Sit. ”
Xu Xingkong smiled bitterly, looked at the direction of the hospital bed again, and then slowly walked to the sofa and sat down.
Lin Xiaofeng still had that expressionless face, and looking at Xu Xingkong's gaze was still ethereal, which made people very uncomfortable.
"That's Lu Weidong. ”
"Who? Lu Weidong?"
"You don't know him?"
A faint hint of surprise and disdain flashed in Lin Xiaofeng's eyes: "Lu Qianqian's younger brother, don't you care about Lu Qianqian very much?"
Lin Xiaofeng has always been concise and to the point, as for Xu Xingkong who didn't say it, she can still understand it, what she wants to say is that since you have a good relationship with Lu Qianqian, why don't you even know Lu Qianqian's relatives?
Xu Xingkong smiled bitterly, this matter really can't be explained, in the final analysis, his feelings and behaviors towards Lu Qianqian can't stand scrutiny.
"Lu Qianqian's younger brother, why is he sick or injured?"
Fortunately, Xu Xingkong was not completely stupid, and soon stopped dwelling on those meaningless questions and turned to the crux of the matter.
"Injured, it should have been attacked by a rat demon, Lu Qianqian sent him to the hospital, and then was transferred here. ”
Xu Xingkong's eyes shrank suddenly, and his body tensed involuntarily: "What about Lu Qianqian? Why did a monster attack Lu Qianqian's younger brother? Isn't Lu Qianqian with them?"
Lin Xiaofeng glanced at Xu Xingkong with an idiot-like look, Xu Xingkong was secretly annoyed in his heart, if Lin Xiaofeng was what he hated the most, it was undoubtedly Lin Xiaofeng's eyes that seemed to be projected from another plane.
"If the demons and monsters are united, what else will happen to us?"
"But why did they attack Lu Weidong? Could it be that they want to cut off Lu Qianqian's relationship with the human race?"
Lin Xiaofeng's eyes flashed, Xu Xingkong actually understood, she said that you are not stupid again.
"This is a common method they use, and they will not be able to fully control and guide these new entrants without cutting off the connection between them and their relatives. ”
"However, once this kind of thing is discovered by the parties, isn't it counterproductive?"
"That can't be helped, in fact, even if they are discovered, their purpose has been achieved, the way of thinking of the demon is different from that of normal humans, and without real bonds, sooner or later they will be completely devoured by their own demons. ”
Xu Xingkong nodded suddenly, then his face suddenly changed, and he looked at Lin Xiaofeng with sharp eyes and said, "With your ability, you must have known about Lu Qianqian's relatives, why didn't you protect them in time, but instead protected Lu Weidong afterwards?"
Xu Xingkong's question is very sharp, in fact, this question has two meanings, one is that since Yushan Yuzhai is now willing to protect Lu Weidong, it means that Yushan Yuzhai still has expectations for Lu Qianqian, as for what to expect, Xu Xingkong doesn't know, anyway, Xu Xingkong won't believe that Yushan Yuzhai will protect Lu Weidong because of kindness, if that's the case, what did they do earlier?
In addition, Xu Xingkong also wanted to know if Yushan Yuzhai was still planning to use Lu Weidong to do something more?
