Volume 2: The Stairway to Heaven (39)

"And then you were sold by someone else and counted the money for him?"

After listening to Hou Ping's story, Liu Yuxin was really surprised, with his experience, it was difficult to understand the brain circuits of Hou Ping and Nangong Qing.

Hou Ping smiled bitterly:

"I was so immersed in the joy of being reunited with my family, that I was just an ordinary person before I was imprisoned by them! If I had calmed down at that time, maybe my family wouldn't have been torn apart, at least, my son wouldn't have been taken away by them and separated from me. ”

After escorting Nangong Qing and the others out with her own strong strength, her wife only stayed with him for a short few days before she lost her trace, and she also took their son with her!

At this time, Hou Ping realized that something was wrong, and returned to the underground base that had become a xenomorph paradise to rummage for relevant clues, until he found a physical examination report from a few years ago in the data cabinet, Hou Ping knew that everything that had happened around him in the past few years was completely a well-planned premeditation!

Regarding the physical examination arranged by the company, Hou Ping was very impressed. Because he used a lot of equipment that looked very tall at that time, but because the physical examination was organized by the company and did not have to pay for it himself, he didn't pay much attention to the content of the physical examination at that time, and even vaguely glad that the company he worked for was very reliable. And it was after this physical examination that it didn't take long for Nangong Qing, who was as perfect as a goddess, to come to his side.

The physical examination report is dozens of pages long, densely filled with professional terms, and Hou Ping, who has not undergone relevant training, cannot understand it at all, but the comment "extremely adaptable" at the end of the report reminds him of the soul stone transplanted on his body, and it may be because of his compatibility with it that he has lived in purgatory in recent years.

"And what about later? Have you found your son? ”

Liu Yuxin asked curiously, at that time, Hou Ping had the power to despise almost everything, even this couldn't prevent the separation of flesh and blood?

"No matter how powerful a person is, there is a limit, although I can easily destroy an army at that time, but I can't find out the information of my son, and when I get news of him again, he has become an old man, do you think we can still recognize each other without any feelings for each other?"

At this time, Hou Ping's face was full of bitterness, his entire life was destroyed by his wife, and immortality became a kind of torment for him. Losing what he wanted to protect, Hou Ping lost the motivation to live, and could only coldly watch his relatives and friends die one by one, and the last person fell into a trap called loneliness.

The main control room fell into silence, and Liu Yuxin and they understood the bitter hatred of this mutant named Hou Ping for the Nangong family, because Nangong Qing was the first generation of family ancestors who laid the foundation for the hegemony of the entire Nangong family!

She has a series of dazzling laurels such as "Mother of New Evolution", "Founder of Alliance", "Ancestor of Convergence Disciplines", and a great man who is regarded as a hero by the vast majority of mankind! But now they know that it's all built on cruel and unsympathetic sacrifices!

"Have you stayed here for all these years?"

This time it was Zhang Li who asked the question, and she was very curious about how Hou Ping lived in this abandoned base with no supplies.

"Yes, I've moved underground since my parents died, and only occasionally go out to help the poor fellow who have also been abandoned by humans."

The long years wore out Hou Ping's anger, and when he found that his revenge on the Nangong family was meaningless, he focused his energy on helping Su Ti, who also escaped from the base. Almost all of those people have strange traits that do not belong to human beings, and it is impossible for them to integrate into human society, and if they return to the city, they can easily be identified by the relevant departments and pursued by elite forces, and they do not have the strength to ignore the threat of human weapons like Hou Ping, so they have to hide in the desert and hide in the middle of the desert, fighting humans, xenomorphs, and even companions at the same time.

Only at this time can Hou Ping find some sense of self-existence. Weird, isn't it? A legendary demon has to help others to survive......

"So do you know that the ladder to heaven exists?"

Hearing that Hou Ping had been active near this desert for more than 100 years, Professor Sun was a little excited.

"Stairway to Heaven?"

Hou Ping raised his head and thought for a while:

"It's the path of the gods, right? I've heard them talk about it, and they've invited me to explore it together. ”

Professor Sun's face was overjoyed when he heard that the answer he was seeking was imminent:

"That's right! Right! It's the path of the gods! Where is it? Tell me! ”

"Why should I tell you?"

Hou Ping's rhetorical question made Sun Li speechless for a moment. That's right, they are not related, and they may still have faint hostile tendencies, why did he tell himself such important news? This......

Sun Li gritted his teeth after thinking about it again:

"Truth be told, that staircase leads to the core ruins of an advanced civilization, which contains unimaginable knowledge and endless treasures! Think about it, aren't you curious to find that the base of your gems is just their periphery, and what amazing things will be inside? “

Hou Ping closed his eyes after hearing this, and when he opened them again after a while, his pupils had turned scarlet:

Diablo is intrigued! Let me show you the way! ”

He drew a map on the ground and began to mark the route, the hard metal floor being easily cut open like tofu under his sharp nails, and in a short time the map was all rounded.

This...... Isn't this where Brother Liang painted the cave for himself?

Liu Yuxin resisted the urge to take out the map for comparison, and recalled in her mind, yes, that place!

Extremely surprised, Liu Yuxin turned his head and asked Gong Liang with his eyes, and Gong Liang nodded slightly after seeing Liu Yuxin's inquiring gaze.

"Remember?"

Although Hou Ping was asking, he had already smoothed the floor with a touch in his hand, and as far as his consciousness was concerned, all those who had not memorized the map in a few seconds should not survive in this world.

"Remember!"

Everyone responded like this regardless of whether they remembered it or not, anyway, when the time comes, it will be this Hou Ping who will lead the way, as long as he doesn't lose it.

"Then let's go! I know a shortcut! ”

Hou Ping strode forward to lead the way, while the others followed him through a long passage to a lift:

"It's been out of use for years, don't count on it, but I think it shouldn't be too hard for you. Guys, I'll go up there and wait for you first.

After Hou Ping finished speaking, a pair of wings bulged out from his shoulders and spread out with wings of about ten meters, and he fanned hard, and a hurricane blew from the flat bottom, causing people to stagger.

"Whew~"

Hou Ping rose into the sky and disappeared outside the cave in an instant.

The others looked at the opening, which was still tens of meters above the ground, and smiled bitterly at each other

"Let's climb slowly!"

That's what Zhang Hong proposed......

By the time they used the tools on their bodies to climb to the ground, Diablo, who had already taken over Hou Ping's body, was already very impatient:

"You're so slow!"

"We're not as convenient as you with wings! I'm sorry for the slower climb! ”

Liu Yuxin, who finally climbed up with both hands and feet, choked Hou Ping, a mecha weighing more than ten tons to climb up from the ground is more energy-consuming than ordinary people, Liu Yuxin almost fell down several times because it was too heavy in the process of crawling, but fortunately, Liu Yuxin's perception was strong, and she found signs of collapse of the rock in advance and took corresponding measures in time.

Being disliked like this really makes Liu Yuxin angry, he can't care who the other party is, as the successor of socialism, he is a bull, ghost, snake and god who is fearless of everything!

Perhaps because of his good mood, Diablo was not angry because of Liu Yuxin's ridicule, but led the way in front without saying a word.

"Wait!"

Liu Yuxin stopped Diablo again:

"It's not okay to walk like this! We've got to get the car back!"

Diablo felt offended by being disobeyed several times, and he was about to have a seizure, but he found the colored rings around Liu Yuxin.

"Spiritual resonance!"

Diablo was shocked in his heart, and the condensed fire suddenly dispersed.

As one of the first inhabitants to descend on Earth at the same time from its birth, it knew very well what the spirit bodies that had resonated with all of them after the World Origin had divided their respective attributes.

From the high-rise buildings slid down the exterior walls, many sand people stretched out their hands and sturdiness, and surrounded them from all sides with various weapons, and shouted in their mouths:

"That camouflage demon is here!"

In an instant, there were countless whistling sounds around them.

"Oops! They also lay an ambush in this direction with manpower......"

Zhang Hong saw the sand people who came around, and made an attacking posture.

"Huh? It's the Prophet!"

The sandmen did not attack as they expected.

"Bastard! How many times have I said it! I'm a pioneer! Not a prophet!"

Seeing that the prophet was so irritable, Sha Min first carefully observed Hou Ping for a while and then said with a smile:

"Don't be kidding, Prophet, it is under your guidance that we have taken root in this hostile environment. Excuse me, what do you need us to do? ”

"Get out!"

Diablo unleashed all the anger he had just accumulated.

The sand people who had just surrounded them were scattered in an instant, and they hid again in the ruins of the city, which surprised Liu Yuxin and them, knowing that they had only broken out in a fierce conflict two days ago.

The sandfolk can't be so forgetful, right? No way? No way!

Either way, they were to avoid a fierce battle.

With Diablo's lead, Liu Yuxin and their team had a green light all the way, and soon found their vehicle, at this time Liu Yuxin and they knew that the relationship between Hou Ping and Sha Min was not a simple neighbor.
