Volume 1 The Road to Survival Chapter 57 The Clue of the Awakening Reagent
Before the blackout, all kinds of resources were relatively abundant, and the relationship between the bases was not so tense at that time, and people were not so vigilant with each other. When the scavengers meet, they will say hello to each other and talk about the day's harvest. On the day of the auction. The old man also drove an electric car to Yubei Square to watch the excitement.
The owner of the reagent was a girl in her twenties, and she was accompanied by a young man with black-rimmed glasses. The auction scene was very hot, seven bases competed, and finally the Nanshan base won five awakening reagents with 20 bags of rice, 1 ton of canned food, and 500 kilograms of bacon.
"Lao Mi's daughter is really bold, and she dares to sell things in the experimental stage. Four of the reagents were injected into Nanshan, and one activated the chicken rib ability that forced the opponent to sleep. The old man had forgotten that he was interrogating at the moment, and turned on the small talk mode.
"This ability is not bad, to put the opponent to sleep in battle, and the opponent has to slaughter himself?"
"But the problem is that you can only make your opponent fall asleep if you fall asleep; Wake up yourself, and your opponents wake up. ”
Luo Youcheng smiled, this ability is indeed a bit chicken, and there is no chance of winning one-on-one. But if it's a team battle, it can play a role as a surprise soldier.
The old man continued: "Nanshan's felt that this business was a loss, and he came back to trouble the old Mi girl, who was hiding and had no news for many years. ”
Luo Youcheng had been paying attention to the awakening reagent and its effect before, and at this time, he finally reacted, and the old man in front of him recognized the maker of the reagent.
"Old man, you mean, the reagent manufacturer's surname is Mi?"
"This girl's name is Mi Doudou, and she is the daughter of my colleague at Yucheng University. This girl is a genius, she graduated from college at the age of 13, if it weren't for the apocalypse, she would have been able to enter the postdoctoral mobile station at the age of eighteen or nineteen. ”
"Can you find her?" Luo Youcheng said excitedly.
"I said it, I haven't heard from you for years." The old man's birthday raised his eyebrows, "With the awakening reagent, you are not afraid of death?" ”
"It was the end of the world when I was born, I didn't have a father or mother since I was a child, and being able to live until now shows that I have a big life."
"No matter how big your life is, there is only one life, which is not appropriate." The old man shook his head.
Luo Youcheng felt that this old man was good, Xu is conversation atmosphere was too relaxed, and he unconsciously used his mind to unbuckle the bondage of the sticky, tear off the electrodes, and stand up and stretch.
"There's nothing wrong with it, wealth and danger are sought. My brother, accidentally drank a mouthful of black tiger blood and was almost poisoned. After two days, I survived, and as a result, I had the ability to temper my skin. ”
Not only was the old man taken aback, but the two young men also opened their mouths wide and shouted that it was impossible.
Luo Youcheng rolled his eyes, walked to the table and picked up the monocle, and asked, "Do you have holographic projections?" I'll pair it up. ”
The young man hurriedly pointed to the box and said, "This is fine." ”
After the match was successful, a scene of a young man and a big wild boar confronting each other appeared on the light screen on the square box. Luo Youcheng looked at the image, a little dissatisfied, it was not holographic, so he could only settle for it. In the video, Shi Yanshan rushed to the wild boar, grabbed the wild boar's fangs with one hand, raised it upward, and hit the wild boar's throat with the other hand, the wild boar screamed sadly, and the huge body fell to the ground. The fighting style is concise and does not drag on in the slightest.
The three of them stared at the handsome young man in the light screen with wide eyes, "He's a different species?" ”
Luo Youcheng nodded: "So, nothing is impossible." If people are always afraid of their heads and tails, they will never have the day to rise again in this life, especially in the last days. ”
The old man laughed self-deprecatingly: "People are old, not as good as you young people." ”
Luo Youcheng lifted the matching state, put the monocle back on the table, Shi Shiran walked back to the lie detector chair, connected the electrodes, buckled the buckle of the restraint belt with his mind, and asked, "Old man, can't you really find her?" ”
There was no response for a long time, but seeing the unbelievable appearance of the three people, the girl still pointed at Luo Youcheng with her finger, "You...... You just got up from your chair? ”
Luo Youcheng looked at the two forearms on the armrest, recalled it, and suddenly realized: "I was chatting so happily just now, I forgot that I was still being interrogated...... Come on, let's move on. ”
I have to say that the reflex arc of the four people is a bit long, and the interrogator was unbound and dangled in front of the interrogator for a long time, but he didn't react.
The old man recovered from the shock and fell into a long test, and after a long time, he asked, "Are you sure that your purpose is just to find an awakening reagent, not to covet our living base." ”
Luo Youcheng was ignited, wanted to stand up again, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he shouted at the girl: "Little sister, give me my monocle." ”
Matched again, this time on the light screen was the scene in the manor, with white vegetable greenhouses neatly and orderly. Many people were busy in the fields, and when the boy walked by, the busy people would give him a strange courtesy, calling him sir.
"I have such a big farm, living in the sun, and I can't eat enough non-toxic vegetables and fresh meat, and I would covet your little hydroponic vegetable?"
The old man narrowed his eyes, he couldn't understand this young man, for a while he was a heterogeneous orphan who had lost his father and mother; One moment it was a farmer with hundreds of acres of land; And it seems to have an ability.
Luo Youjue saw the old man's expression, knowing that he was doubting himself, and immediately lifted the matching between the monocle and the square box. Said: "Don't you have a lie detector?" Come, you ask, I answer. ”
The old man asked the question in his heart several times, and the green dot on the light screen never changed, confirming that Luo Youcheng was not lying. He exhaled lightly:
"Can you tell me what your ability is?"
As soon as the words fell, the old man felt that his wheelchair was flying, and he was so frightened that he almost fell out of the wheelchair. A man and a woman screamed in horror beside him, and when he turned his head, he saw two young men dancing in the air. The old man hurriedly said, "Let us go." ”
After landing steadily, the old man stabilized his mind before saying, "Powerful Ability, I hope to make a deal with you." You help me save people, and I help you find the daughter of the Mi family. I couldn't help but put honorifics in my words.
According to the old man, there used to be six families in their small base, and over the years, people have disappeared one after another when they went out. The number of people was also reduced from 21 to 11, and the rest of the people reorganized the family into four households. Just two days ago, Liu Yang and Zhang Lili said that they would go out to find some clothes and daily necessities, but they never came back.
"I suspect they've been captured by mutants in the neighborhood." The old man said, "We don't have the power, and if something like this happened in the past, we could only give them a few sticks of incense in front of the altar, but if you can help, maybe they can be saved." ”
Luo Youcheng and Guangxu confirmed that the old man was not lying. "How many mutants do they have? What kind of abilities do they have? ”
The old man said, "I saw that it was too late for them to hide, so how do you know what kind of miracle they have." Taozi, you've seen it, tell me about it. ”
The young man named Taozi said, "I have seen two, one of them looks normal, and the other looks like an octopus. I live in a nearby neighborhood, but I can't say if they did it this time. ”
Luo Youcheng untied the restraint belt again, walked to the table and began to get dressed, "Old man, you said that since that auction, there has been no news of Midoudou, so how can you help me find her?" ”
"Her father was a lab maniac, and so was she. Let's look for a few State Key Laboratories of Biochemical Engineering in Yucheng, and maybe we can find her. ”
Luo Youyou put on a biker jacket, "Can you tell me how I fainted just now?" ”
"There's a little mechanism on that flower that, when touched, releases a low dose of anesthetic gas."
Curiosity killed the cat, and Luo Youcheng laughed awkwardly. "Okay then, I'll take the job. Tomorrow, please Taozi to show me the way, I will meet those mutants. ”
Luo Youcheng introduced himself to the other party at this time, the old man's name was Song Shizhen, the young man's name was Shen Tao, and the young woman's name was Gu Xiaozhen, who Song Shizhen recognized as his godgrandson and goddaughter.
Early the next morning, Luo Youcheng, under the leadership of Shen Tao, walked towards the exit. The exit to this small living base is located in the underground garage, and the exit is made of dark gold alloy plates as usual, except that the door is made here and can be opened.
Walking two blocks, Shen Tao pointed to a building at the foot of the slope, and then hid in the bushes next to him.
The building probably has more than 30 floors, half of which are under the slope. The building is five meters away from the slope, and it just so happens that the curtain wall facing the slope has a large piece of glass that has peeled off. Luo Youcheng is happy, which saves a lot of things.
"Don't take it lightly, you can fall in front of a 3D painting, or you can roll over in front of anything else that is inconspicuous," Guangxu reminded. Those who can survive the last days will also think of some means of self-preservation. ”
