Chapter 20: The Fickle

Xiao Ting didn't speak, she already had the answer in her heart.

"She died in my arms, and she said: Life and death are small things, you are fine."

Xiaoting was silent, didn't know what to say, and felt very uncomfortable.

"Eleven months have passed, I am stronger, but the dead will not come back, the first time I saw you, you attracted me, you are the same as her, I like you, but I know, I can't get close to you, that will kill you, I hope after getting out of here, we will never meet again." Chu Xiang's low tone slowly became calm, as if he was saying something very ordinary that had nothing to do with him.

The room was silent, silent, and there seemed to be something sad in the air.

After a long time, Xiao Ting said in a tone that tried her best to maintain her composure: "You weren't like this just now. His voice trembled.

Living in the base all year round, there are so many people who come and go, she is also very lonely, just found a little wonderful thing, wants to get closer, who knows that just have the heart to feel, was cut off by the other party, she doesn't want to give up, she is struggling, she admits her heart, she doesn't want to let go, she wants to stay.

"People always change, but I change faster." Chu Xiangdao, when he said this, he felt that his heart was torn apart, but he had to give it up. He made up his mind about this decision just now, and Zhong Lao's words just now made him understand that he would never be a person who would live a dull life, he wanted to be a phoenix, break free from the shackles of eggshells, and soar for nine days, this road will be a road full of blood.

"I see." The trembling voice calmed down, the light between her brows fell silent, and she returned to her former world, no longer longing for the colorfulness outside.

"Take care." Chu Xiang's tone fluctuated for a moment, and he wanted to reach out and pull his hand, but in the end he didn't.

Xiao Ting left the ward and went to the outside room through the glass.

Chu Xiang's injury healed quickly, he was in bed for seventeen days, followed up for six days, and Xiao Ting didn't say a word to Chu Xiang for the next eight days, this was probably the most decisive decision, Chu Xiang was very pleased, this was the best result.

For the last examination, the attending doctor and Zhong Lao signed a rehabilitation opinion together.

"Let's go, hurry up, look upset." Zhong Lao urged impatiently, which was very different from his attitude all along.

Chu Xiang didn't dare to say much, since he said those words to Xiao Ting, the people in the entire hospital seemed to be disgusted with him, and Zhong Lao didn't have a good face several times, which made him puzzled.

Xiaoting didn't know where to go, Chu Xiang wanted to take a look but was afraid of reluctance, so he had to dispel his thoughts, and as soon as he walked out of the hospital area, he saw Song Ming.

"Okay?" Song Mingdao.

"Alright." Chu Xiang hadn't seen Song Ming for a long time, and he didn't know why he appeared here.

After saying two words, Song Ming left.

Chu Xiang was a little puzzled, could it be that Song Minglai just said hello, chased after him, and said, "What's going on?" ”

"Wait for orders." Song Ming said lightly, his tone was a little different from usual, although he was as calm as before, he seemed to be angry.

Another strange person, Chu Xiang suddenly didn't know what to say, and followed Song Ming for a while, only to remember that his knife was destroyed, and asked, "My knife is gone, is there any spare in the base?" ”

"Go to room 7098." Song Mingdao no longer paid attention to Chu Xiang and walked away.

Chu Xiang suddenly sighed, and came back from his injury, as if everyone had changed.

Chu Xiang asked the soldiers of the base, room 7098 was on the other side of the base, and the soldiers called a small electric car to pull Chu Xiang over.

The size of the base exceeded Chu Xiang's expectations, and the small truck drove in the spacious and bright corridor without ending for twenty minutes before it reached room 7098. A large gate large enough for tanks to enter and exit, with the number 7098 hanging next to the door, nothing else special.

There was a fingerprint entry device next to the door, Chu Xiang pressed his thumb on it, the door opened, and a voice sounded: Please come in. The electronically synthesized voice was bland and tasteless, not even the ups and downs of tone.

Entering the gate, Chu Xiang found that what kind of room is this, it is simply a factory, a huge metal processing factory, rows of machines are neatly arranged, all kinds of crane cantilever guide rails on the head, only there is a glass office on the right side of the door, there are a few people in it, this is obviously a production line with a high degree of automation.

There were several people in the office discussing something, and some machines were working, and the noise was so loud that I couldn't hear what was being said. Chu Xiang knocked on the door, and a man turned his head to look at it and said, "Please come in."

Chu Xiang entered the office, and after closing the door, the noise outside could not be heard at all, and the sound insulation effect was surprisingly good. The three of them were discussing something, ignoring Chu Xiang, standing beside them, and waiting for them to finish speaking, Chu Xiang said, "Hello." ”

A young man with glasses turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?" The man's face was very pale, and his nose was a little deformed under the weight of his thick glasses.

"My knife is broken, let's make a knife." Chu Xiangdao.

"What kind of knife?"

"Tang Dao." Chu Xiangdao.

The man with glasses looked Chu Xiang up and down and said, "Wait a minute." ”

The man with thick glasses operated on the computer, and after a while, he turned to Chu Xiang and said, "Take a look?" Is there anything you need to change? ”

In just a short time, a man wearing thick glasses drew a structural diagram on the drawing software, and various data were clearly marked on the side.

After looking at the above data, Chu Xiang nodded with satisfaction, and the man wearing thick glasses designed the most suitable Tang knife shape for Chu Xiang according to Chu Xiang's height and arm length.

"It's just a little lighter, can you focus more?" Chu Xiangdao.

"How?"

"Twenty-three pounds."

Hearing Chu Xiang's words, another older slender man next to him raised his head and said, "It's a little difficult." ”

"With such a heavy one-handed weapon?" Another stocky young man looked up.

"He's Level 4 clearance." The man with thick lenses said.

The older slender man glanced at Chu Xiang and said, "Then use tungsten titanium alloy." ”

From their conversation, it appears that the clearance level here determines the material of the weapon that can be obtained.

"You sit down for a while, you'll have to wait a while." The man with thick lenses said to Chu Xiangdao, and after operating on the computer for a while, the older slender man and the short and fat man looked at it and put forward some opinions, and the final renderings appeared on the computer.

"Okay, so be it." The slender man clapped.

made the final renderings, the three of them no longer paid attention to Chu Xiang, the three heads squeezed together, and what to study.

Chu Xiang waited for a long time, the three of them had been busy, and Chu Xiang was not easy to disturb, so he could only continue to wait patiently.

After about an hour or so, Chu Xiang felt that there was something different outside, and turned his head to see that a Tang knife was lifted by a crane and sent outside the glass door.

"Your knife is ready." The man with thick lenses pointed to the knife hanging outside and said to Chu Xiang: "The material is too hard, it's not easy to cut, it's a little slower." ”

The degree of automation is really high, the three of them have never gone out, and the knife has already been made, Chu Xiang thought they had forgotten, said thank you, and went out to get the knife.

A Tang knife cut out in one piece, the blade has been polished, the handle still retains the traces of cutting, and it also cuts out a series of anti-skid lines, which will not slip if used directly without wrapping the belt. The knife is still hot, using the blade method of plane grinding, it doesn't look much sharp, it is gray copper, and the blade has a layer of dark lines, Chu Xiang took a closer look, it is a layer of etched ancient moire.

After a while, the knife cooled down, Chu Xiang picked up the knife and pulled a knife flower, he was very satisfied with the weapon in his hand, the quality of this knife was even better than he expected, the front and rear weights were very scientific, and it was very easy to use.

Chu Xiang wanted to turn around and say thank you, but seeing that the three of them were busy with their heads down, it was not good to disturb them, so he dispelled his thoughts and walked out of the processing room.

After getting the weapon in hand, Chu Xiang sent a message to Song Ming, telling him that he was gone, and left the base.

After going out from the warm base to the outside and staying in the ward for more than twenty days, Chu Xiang was a little uncomfortable, and the wind and snow that blew down melted in his neck, and Chu Xiang was smart.

"A comfortable environment can make people weak." Chu Xiang sighed and walked into the vast wind and snow.

Five hours later, in the valley with high mountains on three sides, looking at the hole in the cliff in front of him, Chu Xiang's brows furrowed. The traces of everyone's coming have been covered by wind and snow, the stream is still murmuring, and the cave is still dark, as if nothing has happened, but the terrifying figure of the zombie and the unstoppable momentum are deeply resided in Chu Xiang's mind.

Sitting cross-legged on the hill, silently looking at the cave in front of him, for a long time, Chu Xiang did not move, and the wind and snow slowly covered Chu Xiang.

The thick clouds pressed on the top, the snowflakes flew, the white valley, and the breath of Chu Xiang in the wind and snow disappeared.

I don't know how long later, the phone rang in the snowdrift, and the snowdrift on the top of the hill suddenly cracked in half, revealing the people inside.

There is a signal here, obviously the base has arranged a communication device here, and the mobile phone in his hand must be a special version of the military, otherwise it is impossible to connect to the signal of the base.

"Gongsun, what's the matter?"

"It's a big deal, did you kill Deng Tong?" Gongsun Qi's voice on the other end of the phone was a little anxious.

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Xiang understood that Leng Ruyue must have killed someone, and said, "Let them solve it by themselves, I'm a little busy now." ”

"You just don't care about it, huh? I've been guarding the gate of the South China Courtyard for days. Gongsun Qi shouted.

"Then you go ahead." Chu Xiangdao.

Gongsun Qi was stunned, and after a moment, he said, "Forget it, you are busy with yours, when you come back, we will meet and talk." ”

Hanging up the phone, Chu Xiang called Leng Ruyue.

"Boss." Leng Ruyue's voice didn't change much, and it didn't sound nervous.

"Where are you?"

"Outside Wucheng."

"Come to me, I'll send you the location later, call Shang Zhongdao."

"Okay." Cold as the moon.

hung up the phone, the wind and snow flew, and soon enveloped Chu Xiang again.

At this time, Gongsun Qi was shrinking under the corner of the wall diagonally opposite the entrance of the Nanhua Courtyard, covered with a military coat, with a broken bowl in front of him, and a body of wind and snow fell on his body, like a man named Huazi, with words in his mouth, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Since his identity in that incident was exposed, Duan Meng has not been out of the gate of the Nanhua Courtyard, the Nanhua Courtyard has become a place of right and wrong, there are always some people of unknown origin wandering around, and there are many people of unknown origin mixed in the pilgrims of Shangxiang, entering the courtyard to inquire about the news, and recently there have been rumors that the Shanke Alliance is going to level the Nanhua Courtyard.

Nanhua Courtyard is like a great enemy, except for the incense from the door to the main hall recently, pilgrims are not allowed to enter other areas, and the monks are on guard 24 hours a day, and no adultery is allowed.

Gongsun Qi went in once, and I heard that it was Chu Xiang's friend, and he presided over the meeting in person because the master attached great importance to it, and knew that Gongsun Qi came because of Duan Meng, and he was not nervous because of the dark tide outside, but comforted Gongsun Qi and told him not to worry, and the other courtyard had its own way to deal with it.
