Chapter Ninety-Seven: Why Is It So Slow? (4,000 words)
"Hmm," the deputy leader muttered, "dish soap, plastic wrap, what else do you need?" ”
"Not for now." Zhong Shi said with a smile.
"Why don't I open a supermarket here first," said the deputy leader, his voice turning cold, "and then go and catch that fugitive?" ”
"Hey, hey." Zhong Shi scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.
The deputy team leader suddenly lowered his head, put his nose close to the lunch box, and took a deep breath.
"Hoo ......"
He inhaled the breath into his lungs, passed it through, and then exhaled a long breath, and his face immediately changed the color of pig liver.
Everyone was stunned by this scene, oh my God, what was he doing? Take the initiative to take a deep breath of the aftertaste of snail noodles?
Isn't he afraid of death?
"The best way to get rid of fear," the deputy leader exhaled, trembling all over, and swept his gaze over all the team members, "It's to face fear!" ”
All the people who were swept by his gaze couldn't help but take a step back.
It's a horrible thing! Someone took a deep breath of the screw powder and hoped everyone would do it!
Group ...... Team leader," said one of the team members, as if he had seen some kind of monster lunging towards him, "or not...... Don't do that. ”
The deputy team leader glanced at him coldly, and then stretched out his hand to the bearded man.
"Give it to me," he said, his gaze becoming terrifying, staring at the lunch box as if it was about to carry out a terrorist attack, "I want it now." ”
The bearded man knew that his plan to delay time was over, and that there was only so much he could do.
Where did the man and the woman climb now? He heard the exclamation of someone behind him, as if he had climbed to a height of six thousand meters.
That's amazing, he thought, ready to hand the lunch box to the deputy team leader.
Wait, can I do something more? Shouldn't I do my best for the sake of those two innocent people?
So, the hand that handed out the lunch box retracted again, and Zhong Shi said: "The pot cover is very difficult to control, there is a mark left by my master on it, I am afraid that you will not be able to control it for a while, it is better to let me be the driver." ”
If he controls the pot to cover the sky, then many things have room for maneuver.
The deputy leader stared at him deeply, and his instinct told him that there must be something wrong with this, and that he should not agree to this request, even though it sounded very reasonable.
However, how could he refuse? The magic weapon belongs to someone else, a bearded man who is fierce-tempered and not close to the dragon slaying group, he is willing to lend it, it is already a good thing to burn incense and worship the Buddha, how can he not meet his small request.
"Driver," said the deputy leader, "it's a bit overkill." ”
Zhong Shi knew that this was agreed.
"Don't you really need to wash it anymore?" He asked, holding the lunch box in his hand and asking for everyone's opinions.
"I've made up my mind!" The deputy team leader showed an arbitrary and lonely appearance, "Whoever has an opinion, keep it!" ”
He could no longer tolerate any further at this time, the banshee had climbed to a height of six thousand meters, and this incident made him feel uneasy, as if he was fighting against something unknown, and he had to grasp this power in his hands to feel at ease.
"Team leader," said one of the team members, in a somewhat displeased tone, "isn't that okay?" ”
This is not the style of the dragon slaying group!
"If you don't want to come up," the deputy leader looked at them, "then you can stay down." ”
"But," his tone turned a little heavier, "if this operation fails, then you will have to carry everything on your back!" ”
He felt tired, scared, and had to be serious, in fact, he hadn't fought so fiercely with himself for many years, and the smell of screw powder made him sick to his stomach.
The team members looked at each other, they also knew the terrible consequences, what kind of responsibility to bear was secondary, the key is that the psychological pressure is too terrible.
Finally, they pinched their noses and nodded.
They were unanimous, and Zhong really thought to himself, his heart sank.
The dragon slaying group deserves to be the dragon slaying group, and it actually defeated the smell of snail powder.
Friends, I hope I can help you.
He threw the pot lid into the air, and the lunch box spun drippingly, as big as a flying saucer in an instant, casting a heavy shadow.
The scattered cultivators on the streets exclaimed continuously, and there were not many opportunities to see such a powerful magic weapon in force.
"I heard that the pot covers the sky very fast," said a casual cultivator, "and travels to the East China Sea at dusk." ”
"That's right," another cultivator said, "It is said that the reason why Senior Zhong refined this magic weapon was to go on a space trip to find that legendary world. ”
"Well, it must be almost boundless."
"You can see it just by looking at it."
So, under the attention of everyone, the pot cover sky took off.
It's slow like an overwhelmed bird.
"What's going on?" Some Sanxiu was surprised, "Why is it so slow?" ”
"Why is it so slow?" The pot covers the sky, and the deputy team leader is also asking.
"If there are more people, it will naturally be slower," Zhong Shi said as a matter of course, "Long live understanding." ”
The deputy team leader looked at him with a smile.
Long Ao suddenly found that no, he had this feeling from just now until now, and he liked Zhong Shi's slow and slow style.
Is he my ally? Quite possibly, but why is that?
Anyway, he's happy, and so is his face.
"Zhong Daoyou," the deputy team leader had to make a statement, the speed of the pot was slow, and he wanted to hit someone, as if it was not flying, but slowly climbing up like the banshee, "I don't know if it's my delusion or what, you seem to have been stalling for time, as if you are protecting those two fugitives." ”
This was a serious accusation, and Chung Shi immediately denied it.
"How could I?" The bearded man said, with a look of surprise and confusion, and his wide-eyed eyes looked cute, "If you didn't drag me into this, how could I be involved?" You're in charge of catching fugitives, but you don't have flying weapons, and now you're suspicious of me? ”
"Well," he said indignantly, "doubt me, huh?" I'll let you get it! ”
He knew that this was a good opportunity, and pretended to be enraged, and suddenly swooped the pot down the sky, and he might be held accountable afterwards, but there would be no serious consequences.
"I have to warn you," just as he tried to do so, the deputy team leader finally decided to sacrifice his ultimate, "Last night, that banshee infiltrated the Heavenly Master's Mansion and injured your master, Zhong Fuji. ”
As soon as these words came out, the momentum of the pot cover falling violently, and Zhong Shi's expression changed greatly.
"This is top-secret news," said the deputy team leader, "I shouldn't have told you, even though you are the apprentice of Senior Zhong." ”
"But," he said, "if that helps you make the right choice, then I'm willing to make an exception." ”
It's over, Long Ao thought, I'm going to lose this precious ally.
Indeed, at this time, Zhong Shi looked at the deputy team leader with a shocked expression, and his hands were trembling slightly.
"Really?" He asked, "What happened to my master's injury?" ”
"Thankfully," said the deputy team leader, knowing that his goal had been achieved and that his ultimate was effective, "that's all I can say." ”
Luckily, it's only two words, but it's more useful than a whole paragraph, and in a way, luck and death mean the same thing.
Zhong Shi felt dizzy.
Master, he thought, Master was seriously injured?
He thought that he had called last night, but Master didn't answer, and he thought that as usual, Master didn't like to look at his phone.
I didn't expect something like this to happen.
There is no doubt that his master loves him very much and gives him his beloved magic weapon for self-defense.
But how did he do it?
The girl? It was she who injured my master, Zhong Shi glanced up at Lin Mengdie, but I was doing everything possible to delay time, hoping that she would escape?
Using the magic weapon that my master gave me?
He felt the thunder of sanction strike at his conscience and make him endure the torment of injustice.
At the same time, he thought of everything Lin Mengdie had done.
She really doesn't look like a bad person, and she also took the initiative to help me clear my suspicions and cooperate with me in acting.
Does any of this still make sense, though?
Is she a bad person, or has she done something for me, and what's the point of these things? Can it be more important than my master?
He suddenly felt some pain, as if two strong hands were tugging at his heart together, squeezing many things that he had thought precious before.
In any case, blood debts are paid in blood.
So, he threw those messy thoughts out of his mind, and then took a deep breath.
Seeing this scene, Long Ao's heart sank completely, and he knew that he was going to fight alone again.
"Okay," Zhong Shi said with a smile, his smile was cold, "I really don't want to overload and speed at the same time." ”
As soon as the words fell, the pot lid accelerated rapidly, really like a flying saucer that broke through the sky.
"That's what it sounds like!" There are scattered cultivators who exclaimed.
Jiang Yan felt like he was going to die, at this moment, at the moment when he crossed the sixth line.
At that moment, a terrible pressure fell from the sky, enveloping his whole body firmly, wantonly squeezing every inch of his skin.
He was not surprised, because from the moment he crossed the first line and continued to climb up, he felt a strong resistance.
When he crossed the second line, the pressure increased decisively, and then it increased in turn, until now, it was as if he had carried the whole earth on his back.
How much does a whole earth weigh? He didn't know, but he could clearly feel his bones trembling and blood groaning.
He felt a wave of fear, as if he had arrived in a wild world, surrounded by man-eating monsters, and he was alone and helpless.
Isn't that it? He has to climb up 4,000 meters, and in the process, the pressure will continue to increase, will he be directly crushed into a patty?
He thought it would, it would be better to be eaten by the monster, at least not to endure the terrible deformation of the body.
However, this is not the most important thing, the bones are shaking, the blood is moaning, and he can still bear it.
The most unbearable thing for him was that the pain from his fingertips was indescribable, and like the pressure, the pain was constantly intensifying.
His soul was wailing, as if it was about to crack.
In short, he dared to say that at this moment, there was no worse person in the world than him.
He can only continue to motivate himself with fantasies, he thinks about Jiang Xingruo, the children in the orphanage, and all the good things in the past 20 years.
At the same time, Lin Mengdie lay on top of him, exhaling like an orchid, which couldn't help but make him feel a little strange.
He felt the strength with which she hugged him as tightly as he did in the orphanage.
He knew that this was no longer a simple "hug" action, and that she was not doing it to prevent herself from falling, but to ...... For something else.
Because of Li Xiaoran's deception, the barren land in his heart could not give birth to beautiful things for the time being, but he had to admit that some changes had happened, and a beautiful seed was sown in the soil.
This kind of child brought him a feeling, comfort or something, he didn't understand, he had never experienced it, because unlike the feeling of Li Xiaoran, there had never been a girl like Lin Mengdie, who had been with him for so long and had such a great impact on him.
In short, for all this, he decided to endure it, even if the bones were trembling, the blood was moaning, and the soul was wailing, and he continued to climb up.
So he continued to climb up, not as fast as before, but not slow, the pain tormented him, tormented his heart, but his body was indeed extremely strong.
Then he heard a "buzzing" sound, like a big bird waving its wings, and there was a vibrating air current.
"They have flying magic weapons," Lin Mengdie said, "and they have caught up." ”
"Where's the chase?" Jiang Yan asked, at this time he was confused, and he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.
Well, caught up, caught up? It's time to catch up!
Only then did he realize the seriousness of the problem and felt that he had to deal with it, but it would take a little time.
Then, he heard Lin Mengdie say, "It's right behind the scenes." ”
It's right behind it, what does that mean?
Could it be said?
So he turned his head and saw the smiling face of the deputy team leader, and from such a close distance, he could even see the hair on the black mole on his face.
As a result, Jiang Yan felt powerless.
You think, it's normal, a person endures painful torture in order to do something, desperately distancing himself from someone.
Suddenly, he noticed that the man had caught up, and in an instant he was behind him, and those who were close could spit at each other.
And he himself, on top of a high wall, had to firmly hold on to the wall with both hands and feet, kick the wall, carry the weight of an earth, and climb up with difficulty.
What could be worse than that? It's like a fly on a sticky fly board, and there's no way to escape.
"I'm curious," said the deputy team leader, who stared at Jiang Yan's hand holding the wall, "Are you really born in Jianghan City?" Is it a native of Earth? ”
This is incredible, he thinks, this fugitive has climbed six thousand meters, this is already the apex of the posture of the dragon elephant, even in ancient times when there were many strong people, such a person was awe-inspiring.
Is he really an earthling? At this moment, the deputy team leader was deeply skeptical.
This is completely inconsistent with the laws of celestial energetics, and there is no way to give birth to such a person on the earth with poor and thin aura!
