Chapter 2: The First Battle in Shanghai (8)

Originally, everything was clear a day in advance, and as long as the next day passed on time, that guy could be served. But then the accident happened, and the next day, before dawn, the news came that the bookstore had been blown up.

After investigating for so long, it was not easy to get this clue, so it was naturally Murong Coo who rushed over as soon as something happened, and he hurried towards the bookstore without even having time to change his pajamas and pajamas. And Bao Yueyue was forced to go through together with great reluctance.

"At this time, I should be hiding in the warm quilt and sleeping until I wake up naturally, why should I follow you here......" Bao Yueyue's mentality has always been to be safe, since the accident has happened, and all of them are also lacking in skills, it is better to ignore it for the time being, and wait until they are idle to deal with it. Therefore, she was quite dissatisfied with the fact that she was forced to rush to the scene of the crime in desperation.

After the bookstore collapsed, no one had been to the scene of the accident. Because it is really a business district, and the time is in the early hours of the morning, except for the anxious Murong Cod and the Baoyue that was forcibly brought, I can't see anyone else.

"Let's go back first, there's no one here now......" Bao Yueyue was indeed surprised to see a building in the city collapse like this, but this feeling only stayed for a moment. Then she thought that it would be okay to come to the scene like this, and she could go back and catch up on sleep. For women, beauty is always a common topic for them, "It's not completely dawn yet, and we can't find anything here, so let's go back first." ”

"Save ...... Help me. At this moment, the cries for help of strangers came from the pile of rubble. Shocked, Bao Yueyue clenched her fists and entered a defensive state.

Little by little, she approached the source of the voice, "Who is it?" Who is shouting here? "Her question is pointless, it's a waste of time. The other party's shouting just now had exhausted her strength, and now she had already fainted, and no one responded to her at all.

"Hurry up and save people!" Murong Coo's eyes were quick, and he immediately held a meeting to rescue after the other party called for help, unlike Bao Yueyue, who was just standing next to the ruins in a stupid daze.

"Oh......" Under Murong Hao's reminder, Bao Yueyue came back to his senses and began the rescue operation. At this time, with the two blood envoys of Murong Cod and Bao Yueyue present, it was much easier to remove the rubble from the ruins. With a gentle wave of their hand, the stones floated in the air, fluttering like a sponge, and soon the surface was cleared of the rubble. The rest of the work can only be done with the most primitive manual work.

When doing this kind of physical work, the gap between Murong Cod and Bao Yueyue is very obvious. Murong Cod can dig with a hoe all the time, while Baoyue has to rest every once in a while, so the speed is very slow, and there is no progress for a while.

Just as Bao Yueyue was sitting on a gravel to rest, suddenly there was a change under the crack in the ground next to her, which immediately caused the water pipe of the entire street to burst. The strong air pressure lifted the rubble on the ground, and Murong Hao and Bao Yueyue had to stop their rescue and temporarily stand on the tiles protruding from the side of the exterior wall of the building near the ruins.

Looking at the gushing water column, Bao Yueyue asked Murong Hao for verification, "Could it be that we dug up the water pipe when we were digging the soil just now?!" Bao Yueyue looked at the ground and suddenly felt dizzy, "And ...... How the hell are we going to get out of here? I don't want to be on my stomach on the wall like this for the rest of my life! ”

The power of the water column did not mean to weaken, but the waves of water stirred up became higher and higher. If this continues, sooner or later, the entire road surface will collapse due to a burst water pipe.

"We're moving to the school across the street now and then we're going to think of other ways to remedy it." Now they are mud bodhisattvas who can't protect themselves, so they are not suitable for blind rescue. Murong Cod is still very clear about this. Therefore, the rescue plan had to be temporarily terminated, and they first found a way to get out of the siege of the water column. In the end, Murong Cod chose to go to the campus of Yashan University.

Even though the two places are separated by a road, it is not difficult for them to jump over it. And it's just dawn, and there will be no pedestrians passing by at this time, so it's a good idea to take this opportunity to get out of here.

Bao Yueyue was already so tired that she was about to lose her breath, so as soon as Murong Cod said the first word, Bao Yueyue left the building without waiting and walked over the school.

But the development trend of this matter far exceeded their expectations, and even reached another uncontrollable trend. Originally, in order to prevent waterlogging, if a water pipe was damaged and leaked, the water supply would be stopped at short notice to allow time for repairs by the competent authorities. However, after the municipal construction department came to the site to close the main gate, the gushing water column did not abate. For some reason, seawater poured into the underground network, and the water column became higher than before. Because this had never happened before, the construction workers present did not know what to do. Just as they were still hesitating, a column of water lifted one of the workers off the ground in an instant, and then as the water column disappeared, the man was slammed to the ground and fainted on the spot. As a last resort, the construction personnel at the site left the site. The police who arrived later cordoned off the scene and evacuated the scene.

"What do you think about this? ......" When Bao Yueyue asked, I couldn't help but want to add the sentence 'Yuan Fang'.

"That monster must have done it. I didn't know how to say it before, but now it's almost certain that whether it's the sudden collapse of the bookstore, the burst of the water pipe, or the abnormal influx of seawater, there is no doubt that it is related to the monster who came to Shanghai to make trouble. Murong Coo's expression was unusually serious. Not only because the youkai hadn't been caught for a long time, but because he was still hiding in the shadows and had already begun to strike, but they had lost the only clue.

If the bookstore was destroyed to cover up the evidence, then the purpose of this 'flood' is probably to prevent them from saving the people crushed in the rubble. Because it all happened by too many coincidences.

Therefore, Murong Hao decided to take the risk to save that person. He turned around and told Bao Yueyue, "You go back to find calm to deal with the follow-up questions, and I'll go to the informant." After finishing speaking, he left the open space of the school before Bao Yueyue could react and walked towards the ruins.

Although the water column is getting higher and higher, there is a pause in between. Murong Cod decided to take advantage of the time difference to go underground into the ruins and fish up the trapped man.

However, just as Murong Cod took advantage of the gap to break through, the water column suddenly began to turn and attack towards his position. Four or five water columns attacked at the same time, leaving Murong Cod with no other way but to hide passively.

Just when his donkey skills were exhausted, Bao Yueyue rushed over. She blocked her body in front of Murong Ao, "You hurry up and go in, I'll block it for you here." ”

Although Bao Yueyue has no chance of winning, she will not take the initiative to die. Fortunately, she brought the ancient sword with her today.

It is said that "the water is more flowing when the knife is drawn, and the sorrow is more sorrowful when you raise a glass." However, the blade in Bao Yueyue's hand faced the water column, but she had the ability to cut off the water column from it.

Seeing that it was no big deal for Bao Yueyue to face the water column head-on, Murong Yue rushed towards the ruins with confidence.

Thanks to the influx of seawater, a large number of stones in the ruins were held up by the violent current, making it relatively easy for Murong Ray to move forward.

Because the ruins were poured in by the sea, it was impossible for those buried underneath to speak. As a result, Murong Cod could only activate the ability to perceive the existence of living beings. However, the use of abilities consumes a huge amount of physical strength, and it becomes extremely dangerous to travel through water like Murong Cod is now.

Soon, Murong Cod found a man under the collapsed bookshelf in the innermost room, which was still intact. He swam with him towards the clearing.

At this time, Bao Yueyue was still fighting against the water column. Although the water jets didn't hurt her, she didn't take advantage of it in the slightest.

"Let's go!" After successfully landing on the shore, Murong Hao shouted at Bao Yueyue and retreated to the school with the injured.
