Chapter 109: The Long Knife Cuts Nothing
() As time passed bit by bit, Du Jiujiu felt that his chapped meridians were moistened by the energy and gradually regained their original elasticity, and the pitiful energy that had been there before also gathered more and more in the process, trickling in the meridians.
The strange thing is that in the process of energy flowing, Du Jiujiu vaguely felt that the total amount of his abilities at this time had not decreased, on the contrary, it was slightly more than before the poisoning.
At the moment when the energy was recovered, Du Jiujiu opened his eyes suddenly.
It was still so dimly lit, it was still such an empty space, but she felt that there was unprecedented clarity in front of her.
A faint crack on the wall dozens of meters away, and the thin lines on the rattan that was originally intended to be used to weave baskets placed in the corner of the wall, became extremely clear in Du Jiujiu's eyes.
Du Jiujiu had some doubts in his heart, how could his visual ability suddenly increase. But at this time, she didn't have the leisure to think too much about this issue.
She stood up and habitually touched her back with her right hand, but it was empty. Du Jiujiu remembered in hindsight that Wei Qingqing had told her that the long knife was melted into wire by An Cheng and discarded in the jungle outside when she was fighting with An Cheng that day.
Du Jiujiu smiled bitterly, he was used to the company of the long knife, and suddenly returned to the state of his bare hands, which really felt a little unaccustomed.
She lowered her right hand in some embarrassment, and searched her surroundings for a barely wielded weapon.
But when she moved her gaze to the corner where the metal was stacked, she found that the original large pile of metal materials was missing by half, and instead a figure was sitting there.
Qi'er's broken hair covered most of his face, and there was an unconcealable tiredness in his exposed handsome features.
"An Cheng? What happened to you? Du Jiujiu recognized An Cheng at a glance and hurriedly walked over.
Hearing the footsteps, An Cheng raised his head slightly, and when he saw that it was Du Jiujiu, he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, "Jiujiu, you're awake." This one is for you, it's too heavy, so you might as well come and get it yourself. ”
"For me?" Du Jiujiu followed her gaze and saw a brand-new long knife lying flat on the ground next to An Cheng's hand.
This long knife is more than a meter long on the blade, the whole body is dark, the spine is wide and the blade is sharp, but there is a cold killing intent hidden under the unassuming appearance, which seems to be very suitable for a person with power abilities like her. This made Du Jiujiu like this weapon at the first sight of it.
Du Jiujiu squatted down and held the handle of the knife with a slight force, wanting to lift it. But the knife didn't move at all, and it wasn't until Du Jiujiu used three points of strength that he reluctantly picked it up.
"The last time the knife was made in a hurry, the weight and length were not quite suitable for you. I just made a long knife out of the materials I've accumulated, you can try it, if something doesn't go your way, I'll help you change it. An Cheng's face was still pale, but her expression was very indifferent, she tilted her head and said with a smile.
"This knife is very good, I especially like it. It's just that...... How is your body? It must take a lot of abilities to make this knife, right? You've just recovered, isn't that too reluctant? ”
Du Jiujiu only swung the long knife a few times, and he was already very satisfied with it. Since the awakening ability, the strength of Du Jiujiu's body has been increasing at an extremely fast rate, and few ordinary weapons can match her strength.
And the long knife in his hand, the blade of which is only more than one meter long, can reach the weight of hundreds of catties, such a metal Du Jiujiu has never heard of, it must be a new type of metal cast by An Cheng using his ability to re-fuse.
Since the end of the world, Du Jiujiu and An Cheng have been fighting together, and An Cheng's ability Du Jiujiu simply knows no better, to create such a weapon, I'm afraid An Cheng has to use the ability of the department to barely be enough.
At this time, An Cheng still had the sequelae of poisoning in her body like her, and the process of recovering her abilities alone was very painful, not to mention exhausting it again. Thinking of this, Du Jiujiu couldn't help but admire An Cheng more and more.
"What's just a little pain? I always thought that I was strong enough to face all difficulties fearlessly, but the end had just begun, and I couldn't hold on. Jiujiu, I still lost to you on this point. No matter what the reason is for this time, if you are willing to save my brother, I owe you a favor after all. ”
An Cheng paused and said, "I'm like this now, even if I want to go with you, I'm powerless." Let this knife be by my side on this trip, if it can help you, it can also make me feel a little gratified. ”
"Why do you see me like this, aren't we companions? But...... I really liked this knife, so I accepted it unceremoniously. Du Jiujiu stroked the broad blade of the long knife, and his affection was beyond words, "By the way, does it have a name?" ”
"Name?" An Cheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I didn't expect this, but this knife really deserves a name of its own, why don't you give it one?" ”
Du Jiujiu thought for a moment, then held the long knife in his right hand and danced, and slashed at several arm-thick metal long sticks stacked on the side.
The long knife brought a gust of wind to blow the broken hair in front of Du Jiujiu's forehead, and those metal sticks were cut into two pieces in the blink of an eye, the section was as smooth as a mirror, but there was no trace on the blade of the long knife.
"This knife really deserves to sharpen iron like clay, and I really hope that this treasure knife can help us defeat all the mutated monsters and restore order to the world. As...... Let's call it nothing! ”
"Nothing? Cut everything off and return to nothingness? Good name, hopefully, as you say, one day the world will be back to before the end of the world. An Cheng nodded, a faint light flashing in his eyes.
"After such a long delay, it's time for me to go. I don't know if Su Xiaohan is ready, you have a good rest here, I'll go find him first. As he spoke, Du Jiujiu swung the long knife a few more times to cut nothing, and only after getting a little familiar with it did he carry it on his back preciously.
"Jiujiu, thank you."
An Cheng watched Du Jiujiu speak again, his tone was unprecedentedly sincere.
"What else do you want to thank you, although Luo Yucheng is your cousin, he is also the person I rescued. Don't worry, I'll definitely bring him back with me! Du Jiujiu pretended to pat her shoulder lightly, and tied her messy black hair into a neat ponytail, before turning to leave.
"However, I want to thank more than that......" An Cheng looked at Du Jiujiu's back and said silently in his heart.
"It's because of you that I was able to come out of despair again."
