Qiu Qiong was so frightened that she hurriedly covered her head with a blanket and exclaimed at the same time: "Turn off the lights!" Turn off the lights! Lao Xu, turn off the lights! ”

Lao Xu exhaled a cool breath, blocked the sight of the person in the front of the car with one hand, and clicked on the control panel with a trembling other, and finally turned off all the light sources in the cab. However, the man at the front of the car never left, still staring at Lao Xu.

"No, no, no...... No, no! He, he, he...... Don't go! ”

At this time, another woman with long hair and a loose drape jumped from the roof of the car, lay in front of the window with a "bang", and scanned the cab left and right with an unusually resentful look. Suddenly, her eyes stayed on the small platform between the driver's seats, just because there were Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu's water glasses there.

Lao Xu held his knees with both hands, curled up on the seat, closed his eyes tightly, and squeezed out a sentence uncomfortably: "This is also terrible......

The woman in front of the window had wide red eyes, and gradually grinned, and her expression became more and more hideous. Suddenly, she suddenly raised her head and screamed around, "Water...... Water! Ah, water! ”

When all the people huddled behind the car heard her words, they stopped their hands at the same time and turned their heads stiffly. After a few seconds of silence, they rushed to the front of the car en masse, some frantically pulling at the doorknobs, others lifting rocks and slamming the windows hard.

"Lao Xu, think of a way!" Qiu Qiong screamed in fear.

"Xiao Qiong, what you said is light, you come to think about it! This is what people do, they are clearly ghosts! It's not a ghost, it's a zombie! Lao Xu covered his ears with his hands, and he didn't dare to open even a slit in his eyes.

"But, if it goes on like this, the doors and windows will be knocked out!"

"Oh, you can rest assured about this! Diligence and laziness work together to design something that can't be so easily broken! As he spoke, Lao Xu stretched out his hand, slowly touched the steering wheel, and pressed a voice button, "Read the defense data." ”

The screen on the control panel immediately showed the defense of all parts of the car, from which it can be seen that all parts are dark blue, apparently undamaged by the gang outside the car. Immediately afterwards, the system voice prompted: "The defense degree of the whole car, one percent, one hundred." ”

Lao Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and felt extremely fortunate for a while: fortunately they designed this new truck, and fortunately, he didn't refuse because of nostalgia at that time...... If I had been sitting in the original pickup truck at this moment, I am afraid that I would have been more than lucky......

"Didn't that diligence and laziness design some device to drive these people away?" Qiu Qiong asked anxiously.

Lao Xu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly woke up and said, "That's right! There must be a device on the car to deal with being blocked! ”

"Then why didn't you use it earlier!"

"Ouch, I don't have time to figure out all the devices in this car!" Lao Xu opened one eye and quickly clicked on the control panel, however, he searched for a long time, but still did not find a device with that function.

"Lao Xu, can it be done!"

"Hey, wait a minute...... Wait a little longer......"

As the minutes passed, Lao Xu was scrambling to find it, but the gang at the front of the car was smashing more and more frantically. Qiu Qiong hid under the blanket, only to feel as if she was locked in an ice cellar, shivering with cold.

"Stinky kid!"

"Break the evil spirit?" Qiu Qiong opened her eyes suddenly, and replied in her heart, "You...... How are you?! ”

"How's that for me? Lao Tzu is very comfortable now! The people outside smashed it very hard, but I'm afraid they won't be able to get in! ”

"Well, that's good......"

"What a good thing! You stinky kid, what do you mean by leaving Lao Tzu in this cargo hold?! ”

"I ...... There's no room for you in the cab......"

"Tsk! If you don't have a place to put it, you have to keep it with you! Look at the current situation, if Lao Tzu is here, if you draw your sword and go out, it will be a big kill! Don't be afraid of them! ”

"That's right! I knew I should have put you by my side, and ...... Nano suit! ”

For a while, Qiu Qiong felt extremely remorseful, and when she got up in the morning, she should have taken the nano suit and the Evil Sword sent by Fu Hui to the cab. In that case, as soon as she encounters an emergency, she can immediately enter the "state", and she will not be like now, she can only hide under the blanket and let Lao Xu find a way.

It was also at this moment that Qiu Qiong realized that she was actually so timid. Her previous bravery was due in large part to the support of the Nanosuit and the Evil Sword, which allowed her to rush forward without any scruples. But once these two things were lost, all Qiu Qiong's courage seemed to have no support point, and she disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"I can't do anything, I can't help anything, I'm really a useless person." Qiu Qiong told herself repeatedly.

Just as Qiu Qiong fell into endless self-doubt, Lao Xu finally found a decent device, he pressed the execution button without hesitation, and the sound of machinery running on both sides of the truck was immediately heard. Immediately afterwards, a block-shaped mechanism gradually appeared on the outer walls on the left and right sides of the cargo hold, with the muzzle on one side and the horn on the other.

Immediately after the device was fully exhibited, the muzzle side of the gun was aimed at the crowd, and the system voice prompted: "Do you want to perform a one-hit kill?" ”

Lao Xu clicked the "no" button three times in a panic, and shouted eagerly: "No, no, no, don't make such a big deal!" If you can get rid of them! ”

With that, the device then rotated in a circle, facing one side of the horn at the crowd, and immediately emitted a "buzzing" high-frequency sound wave.

Suddenly, there were screams outside the front of the car, and the group of people pressed their ears one by one, struggling in pain. Some of them couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly fled the range covered by the sound waves. When the rest of the people saw that someone had escaped, they also quickly jumped out of the truck and left the parking area as fast as they could.

"Ouch......" Lao Xu vented all his strength, slumped in his seat, and looked out the window tiredly at the darkness.

Qiu Qiong heard that there was no movement outside, so she slowly pulled down the blanket and asked in a low voice, "Lao Xu, are they all gone?" ”

Lao Xu nodded slightly, and replied weakly: "Yes...... It's kind of gone......"

"Will they come back?"

"It should ...... Won't it......"

"Who are they? Why surround us! Qiu Qiong asked with a puzzled expression.

Lao Xu suddenly frowned, scratching his chin while thinking about the moment just now. Although their horrific behavior made people shudder, and their irrational appearance made people reluctant to recall it, just now, when they retreated, Lao Xu noticed that they all had a bronze medal hanging on their bodies.

"They should all be people who live in the brass ring, there must be some major reason why they have become so mad!"

"Water!" Qiu Qiong exclaimed, "They kept shouting 'water' or something just now!" ”

"Water......" Lao Xu thought about it for a while, paused for a moment, and then continued, "Is it because there is a problem with their water quality, which causes the people who drink it to go crazy?!" ”

Qiu Qiong's eyes blinked, and she nodded seriously, feeling that what Lao Xu said was very reasonable.

After a long time, Lao Xu saw that there was no movement outside, and his tense nerves finally relaxed, but Qiu Qiong on the side was still holding the blanket, staring out of the window blankly. Lao Xu smiled lightly, slapped Qiu Qiong's arm with his backhand, and said slowly.

"What are you thinking?"

Qiu Qiong's brows suddenly expanded, and after taking a deep breath, she replied, "No...... No......"

"Ha, it's hard-mouthed! You, all emotions are put on your face, you know you are thinking about things at this glance! ”

"Yes...... Is it so obvious......" Qiu Qiong gradually put down her disguise, showed a sad expression, and said softly, "Old Xu, do you know why I'm so afraid that you call me 'savior' or 'hero'?" ”

Lao Xu was stunned for a moment, shook his head and asked, "Scared?" That's why everyone likes you and believes in you, so why be afraid? ”

Qiu Qiong sighed bitterly, and said with a heavy face: "Because I am very sure that I don't have that ability, I can get good results, in fact, I can't help with a lot of things." Just now, I thought very clearly, if I didn't have the nano suit, without the Evil Sword, I would be an ordinary person. I can't do anything well, and I say that I want to protect others, but I can't even protect myself. ”

Lao Xu immediately saw that Qiu Qiong was actually blaming herself, she was blaming herself for not standing up bravely just now. However, under the terrifying and terrifying atmosphere just now, no matter how brave and fearless a person is, his nerves will become fragile. No matter how strong his heart is, looking at their faces that are no different from zombies and unjust souls, Lao Xu believes that he still has the idea of retreating.

What's more, Qiu Qiong is a girl after all, although her heart is strong enough, she is not made of steel. When I encountered the scene just now, my spirit was shocked and my heart was destroyed, which is actually a normal thing.

Lao Xu nodded and said lightly: "I understand what you mean, you think you are very cowardly, right?" ”

"Yes!" Qiu Qiong shouted in response.

"If that's what you think, I'm going to be angry!"

"You...... What are you angry about? Qiu Qiong was stunned.

"Because you're scolding me! Call me cowardly, huh! Lao Xu pursed his lips and raised his hands angrily.

The depressed emotions condensed on Qiu Qiong's face dissipated in a hurry, and turned into confusion and distress. Qiu Qiong spread out her hands and said loudly: "How could I talk about you!" ”

Lao Xu sneered: "Heh! You just said, 'If I don't have a nano suit, no evil sword, I am an ordinary person', I don't have a nano suit, I don't have an evil sword, I'm just an ordinary person! You also said, 'I can't do anything, and you say that you want to protect others, but I can't even protect myself', and I also said that I want to protect you, but in the end, it didn't make you fall deeper and deeper and suffer so much! Besides, you protected everyone in the end, but I'm locked in the basement, and that's why I can't do anything! You're clearly scolding me! ”

"I ......" Qiu Qiong was speechless for a while, thinking about it according to Lao Xu's logic, she seemed to be really talking about him.

"Joan, you have to remember that in order to accomplish something, outside help is indeed a very important factor, but it is not the most important thing. And the main thing is your heart, which is attracting help from the outside world. Would they be so stupid as to choose a timid and cowardly person? Of course not, the reason why they chose you is to see the firmness and strength in your heart. So, please also trust your heart and stop doubting it. ”
