Gray Times Chapter 170 What Do You Want to Eat
"It looks pretty good here, I don't know which neurotic blew up the gas station..."
After everyone entered the pig killing restaurant, Zhuge Bai said to himself.
Dabin and I glanced at each other, and we both saw the emptiness in each other's eyes.
"Qi Mo! How is your head..."
Zhuge Bai turned his head and looked at me in great surprise after seeing that my face had completely detached from his cognition.
"Ah, don't worry, let's sit down and rest for a while, and I'll explain it clearly."
Now that everyone is standing in the restaurant, it is quite awkward to explain, so it is better to sit down and explain it well.
The area of the pig killing restaurant is not large, and our group of about 20 people basically filled the seats inside.
On the surrounding walls are hung dishes and price lists, and everyone's stomachs are rumbling.
"Everyone's hungry, right? I went to see if there were any ingredients in the kitchen. ”
Fei Fei said generously to us at this time.
"General, accompany Fei Fei to the kitchen and keep her safe."
I gave the order to the general.
"Wang!"
The general shouted loudly, and then followed Fei Fei with the cerebellar axe on his back.
"You... Why are you staring at me..."
Looking at the eyes of the people around me, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. But it was a coincidence that the light in the restaurant was dim, but the milky white light emitted from my head lit up the whole space, like a moving high-wattage light bulb.
"Let's talk about me first. After the antibody drug was developed, I was infected and injected a small part of the drug into my body to ensure that the drug could effectively kill the existing infected people in the world, and finally became what I am now. ”
I'll start with what happened at the very beginning.
"Qi Mo, why didn't you tell me just now? Actively infected? Are you such a father?! ”
Maggie didn't expect that I would be infected on my own initiative, just to test whether the medicine worked.
"Eh Kiki, didn't you say that you won't be angry, I promise not to play with your life in the future..."
I already thought Maggie was going to be angry, but what could I do? Things have to be made clear.
"Fortunately, the potion is useful. However, it also activated the genes in my body. The activation of the previously ordered genes has formed a chain reaction in my body, and the remaining disordered genes have also begun to activate. I'm now in the process of transitioning from a carbon-based creature to a pure energy body. ”
That's a rhetoric I've thought of in the car.
"You... Why don't you speak? ”
Seeing that everyone around me is in a state of being blinded, I am also a little blindfolded.
"Uh, this... We really listened carefully, but we really didn't understand..."
Zhao Shengtian explained to me helplessly at this time.
"To put it simply, Qi Ge is transforming from a human being to a living and thinking light."
Ruohan explained to Zhao Shengtian at this time.
"Ah, I understand. That... Does it make any difference? Like longevity or something? ”
Zhao Shengtian was not interested in what abilities would be brought about by becoming a pure energy body, he was more concerned about whether it would affect my life.
"Don't worry, it doesn't matter. That is, it can be used as a light bulb. ”
I don't want them to know too much about what I'm going to do, it's a private matter, and I don't want to say it. At the end, I made a joke with everyone.
"We're lucky that we still have a lot of ingredients in the kitchen that we can use. You guys wait a while, I'll stir-fry a few dishes. ”
Fei Fei opened the curtain in the back kitchen and poked her head out to say to us.
"And what you just said about Zuoqiu, tell me about it."
Xiao Ping had been waiting for a long time, and he had been trying to hear what had happened to me and Zuoqiu in the car just now.
"Don't worry. Zhuge , let me ask you first, at that time in the farmhouse, Zuoqiu's consciousness forcibly entered your consciousness, what was it like? ”
Before I make it clear, I want to understand how Zhuge Bai felt at that time.
"At the time... I felt that there was something suddenly in my head, and I couldn't get out of it, and finally I tried desperately to concentrate myself, think of something else, and try to drive Zuoqiu out, but I didn't expect him to disappear. ”
Zhuge Bai didn't quite understand, but I believe that Zuoqiu should have felt the same way as him at that time.
"In that case, I've avenged you a little."
I said to Zhuge Bai with a smile.
"What, he's looking for you too?"
Zhuge Bai didn't quite understand what I meant.
"I found him by accident."
I explained.
"Don't get excited, you listen to me."
Zhuge Bai's emotions were a little excited after I finished saying that, and he wanted to ask me something, but I directly interrupted him.
"I'll get straight to the point. After entering Zuoqiu's consciousness, I saw some very unfamiliar information. The Tibetan plateau, the last gathering place of human beings, is still two percent short of energy. These short sentences. I understand what the first two sentences mean. Zuoqiu's ultimate goal is likely to be to turn the survivors of the Tibetan plateau into infected. But I still can't understand the last sentence. What energy is still two percent short? ”
At the end, I was lost in thought.
"You mean the Tibetan plateau? It doesn't make sense..."
Zhuge Bai seemed to have some special understanding of this place, and after listening to me, he muttered to himself with some suspicion.
"What doesn't make sense? Is there anything strange there? ”
I thought it was just a mountain range connected by it, could it be that there was something else?
"As far as I know, there are a large number of soldiers stationed there all year round, and a vast area of underground fortress-like cities has been dug by hand, which was jointly built by the countries of the world. The purpose is to prevent sudden, unknown dangers and ensure the safety of the world's biological seeds. But as for the human race... Should not be eligible to live there. Zuoqiu knew that this was not strange, but why did it say that it was the last gathering place of human beings? Could it be that there are many survivors living there? ”
Zhuge Bai said a lot, and I realized that there was not only a mountain range in that place, but also such a "city".
"It seems that this Zuoqiu wants this last piece of pure land to be polluted by mutant cells... But what exactly does he want to do? Is it just for fun? ”
I really don't understand the purpose of Zuoqiu doing all this, it's so incomprehensible.
"Huh! By the way, Dr. Chen, you see, we are at a very low altitude, and if we don't have a high-power nebulizer, it will be difficult for the antibody agent to spread on the earth. But if we stand on the top of the highest mountain in the Tibetan Plateau and sprinkle the elixir in the air, will the elixir be scattered around the world by the wind and achieve our goal? ”
I suddenly had a very bold idea and asked Dr. Chen with great interest.
"Now this month, it is estimated that the temperature at the top of the mountain is between minus 30 and 40 degrees, and the mutant cells can survive in an environment of minus 70 degrees, I think it should be possible..."
Dr. Chan thinks the idea has a chance of success, but he's not too sure. This is his usual style, even if the success rate is 100%, he only says that the probability of success is higher.
"In that case, we have a goal next. Go to the Tibetan plateau, use the potion, and see what the last gathering place of mankind looks like. ”
I am full of confidence that this may really be the last step in our escape, and after doing this, I hope that God will be merciful and let us return to a peaceful life.
Look at the people seated, one by one. The clothes on his body have long been torn and unpresentable, but he is reluctant to throw them away, after all, this is something that can keep warm, even if it is torn, it will stay by his side like a baby.
I can't help but think of the scavenger I met at the gate of my community that morning, and we look similar to him now, and even the goal of life has become exactly the same, which is to survive.
"I think so, after eating for a while, let's find a shopping mall or something, and replace a set of clothes, pants and shoes. We're all beggars now. ”
I spoke my mind to everyone. If we succeed this time, then we can be regarded as stepping into a new era. And as masters of the new world, how can we tolerate ourselves being ragged like a beggar?
"That's a good idea, look at how many cuts have been made in my torn clothes?"
Dabin was the first to agree. and pulled the down jacket on his body, which was no longer down.
"Will this allow Zuoqiu to reach the Tibetan plateau before we do? Since we have the power to stop him now, we should take the initiative to kill him. lest you have long nights and many dreams. ”
Xiao Ping said to us with a slight frown at this time.
"I don't think so. Don't forget, there are countless infected people behind him, and on his own, there is little chance that he will turn all the survivors into infected, and he may even create more people like Zhuge . At that point, he will be in big trouble. And you also know the speed of the infected, slow to death, even if we walk slowly and leisurely towards the Tibetan plateau, it will definitely be faster than the speed of Zuoqiu. ”
I told my thoughts with reason, Zuoqiu wanted to walk ahead of us this time, it was impossible!
"Makes sense, then we still have plenty of time."
Xiao Ping nodded in agreement with my thoughts.
"Kiki, there should be a lot of snacks in the supermarket, what do you want to eat, I'll find it for you."
The big thing has been discussed. I smiled in Maggie's ear and asked her.
"Hmm... Lollipop. ”
Maggie hesitated, a little worried about my safety. But in the end, I also wanted to open it. No matter how bad I am, I have the ability to protect myself, and there will be no danger.
"Lollipop... Don't you want to eat chicken thigh cakes or something? ”
As soon as I heard that it was a lollipop, I was a little amused. The requirements are really low.
"Feel free to do the rest, stay safe."
Maggie was still a little uneasy, and she couldn't hold back from saying this to me.
"Got it, did you go to the supermarket together? Take some food and drink, and you can beat your teeth on the way. ”
I stood up and said to the people around me.
"I'll go, I'll go!"
Dabin bore the brunt of this.
"I'll also go and see, Hanhan, Dad, Mom, what do you want to eat, I'll try to find it."
Zhao Shengtian also stood up and asked his family.
"Brother, can you help me bring some chocolate back?" My dad and I wanted to talk, so I had to trouble my brother. ”
Vivi ran up to me and said to me.
"Yes, you wait here, I'll be back in a moment."
I squatted down, touched Weiwei's head with my hand, and said very dotingly.
"Boy, what do you want to eat, tell your uncle, and your uncle will help you bring it back."
Zhuge Bai also had the heart to communicate with Gong Ming more, so he turned around and asked Gong Ming.
"I... I want to eat... Bamboo shoots. ”
Gong Ming said something a little embarrassed.
"Bamboo shoots? What are you doing with that... Okay, wait. ”
With that, Zhuge Bai also stood up and walked towards the door.
