Chapter 17: The Mountain of Mutation
"The third possibility..."Qiu Ling suddenly looked at Zhang Xiaotian, smiled strangely, and continued: "The third possibility is that you are already living in that cave and ancient tomb. ”
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Xiaotian has no memory, and he has no cognition of strange creatures such as zombies at all.
"It means that you are a zombie, you always have a breath that you can't swallow when you die, and after absorbing enough yin qi, the body does not decay and becomes a zombie, and those archaeologists may also be you killed them and drank their blood." Qiu Ling chuckled!
"Ahh Zhang Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise, thinking that he had drunk human blood, he felt sick to his stomach, and his hands unconsciously covered his stomach.
"Don't, you're not a zombie, zombies don't have a pulse, they don't have a heartbeat, you're all right, and you're not afraid of the sun, how can you be a zombie, I'm just teasing you." Qiu Ling said with a smile, and patted Zhang Xiaotian on the shoulder generously.
"Oh, but who am I, have you thought of it?" Zhang Xiaotian let go of the hand covering his stomach and asked.
"I heard my dad say something, now the aura is beginning to recover, and the wind of martial arts refining will prevail again, and he also said that the last time the aura dried up was hundreds of millions of years ago, when there were very powerful ancient warriors who sealed themselves in the poor mountains and evil waters, and used their own internal strength to keep their lives alive, waiting for the revival of the aura, they were called ancient warriors by modern people."
"The cave discovered by the Nakata Group is most likely not an ancient tomb, but the residence of an ancient warrior, and you are the owner of the cave, so you are likely to be an ancient warrior."
"Ancient Warrior?!"
Zhang Xiaotian was stunned, the first time he heard this word, it came from the mouth of Zhang Xiaoshan, Zhang Xiaoshan and Nakata Yoshiko are both martial artists, relying on the aura of heaven and earth to cultivate internal strength, it is indeed amazing, hundreds of millions of years ago, when martial artists were popular, how powerful those martial artists were, and what kind of ability they had was not something that Zhang Xiaotian could understand.
Maybe Zhang Xiaotian is really an ancient martial artist, but it's a pity that he has lost his memory, even if he has an ability that is incomprehensible to modern people hundreds of millions of years ago, he can't use it without memory, and what makes him wonder is that if he is an ancient martial artist, why doesn't he have internal strength.
"You brought me here just to help me find out where I came from?" Zhang Xiaotian asked.
"If it weren't for this, I would have traveled so far into the mysterious and mutated Heavenly Tiger Mountain to face those monsters that were already extinct and suddenly appeared?" Qiu Ling's eyes flowed, gave Zhang Xiaotian a forced look, pointed to his feet, and continued.
"Tianhu Mountain was originally a small hill, surrounded by plains, it used to be farmland, and the village was far away from the mountain, but now there are mountains on the farmland, the area of Tianhu Mountain is more than doubled, and the height of the mountain peak is far from being comparable to before, what kind of monsters are in it, how dangerous it is, think you will understand it when you see that incomparably poisonous multi-legged Chinese worm."
"Thank you!"
Zhang Xiaotian unconsciously thanked him, but Qiu Ling looked at him curiously, and when he felt a little embarrassed, Qiu Ling suddenly smiled and said, "The reformed person who kills people like hemp also knows how to thank you?" ”
"That's... Has the doctor contacted you, and how is he doing now? ”
Zhang Xiaotian's eyes wandered in the mountains and forests, and he didn't dare to look at Qiu Ling, and for some reason, he felt that when he was with Qiu Ling, there would be an indescribable softness in his heart.
Seeing Zhang Xiaotian's uncomfortable look, Qiu Ling suddenly smiled and said: "My dad never contacted me when he was fine, from my birth to the present twenty-three years, I will not see him for more than a year, and the number of phone calls is even less pitiful, I am used to the days without him, he is by my side, but not used to it." ”
Qiu Ling looked at Zhang Xiaotian, suddenly smiled, and said, "Are you caring about him?" ”
Zhang Xiaotian nodded.
"It seems that my dad has really done a good thing, he said that the serum can not only change the molecular structure, but also make good people better, you can care about him, it means that human nature is not extinguished, and I am not so afraid of you."
Qiu Ling patted Zhang Xiaotian on the shoulder, smiled slightly, and walked down the mountain, his ponytail swaying, showing his youth and vitality.
"You're afraid of me?" Zhang Xiaotian asked softly.
"I heard my dad say that you woke up after the first injection of serum and killed two nurses in the laboratory, and later killed a dozen people in the Nakata bar, who is not afraid of such people."
"It's not all because of your dad!" Zhang Xiaotian just thought about this in his heart, and didn't dare to say it.
There was an RV parked at the bottom of the mountain, it was Qiu Ling's, and according to her, the doctor gave him this RV to make up for years of guilt. There was food and drink in the car, it was dark, and the two chatted while eating, but they were also quite harmonious.
When the sky was completely dark, a roar came out in Tianhu Mountain, the shaking mountain forest shook, the leaves blown by the fierce wind blew, and the villages under the mountain had already closed their doors, and every household turned off the lights, just afraid that those fierce beasts in the mountains would run into the village.
Qiu Ling lay on the delicate little bed in the RV, and from time to time glanced at Zhang Xiaotian, who was sleeping on the co-pilot, she was worried that the latter would do bad things while she was asleep.
Just as she was thinking wildly, the beast roared, and she sat up in fright, and her car was at the foot of the mountain, closer than the village, and the beast came down the mountain, and she was the first to be attacked.
Zhang Xiaotian also sat up, and after getting out of the car, he looked at the roaring mountains and forests, and sometimes there were a few deafening screams, he wondered if all mountains and forests were like this.
"It's terrifying, is this the era in which you ancient warriors lived?" Qiu Ling also poked his head out, looked at the mountains and forests, and asked.
Zhang Xiaotian naturally couldn't answer her, because he didn't have any previous memories.
The screams of the monsters in the mountains were earth-shattering, but they did not come down the mountain, which made Zhang Xiaotian and the others breathe a sigh of relief, but it was really impossible to say that they could rest with complete confidence.
The two spent the night in restlessness, and the next morning, the two went up the mountain again, and the great multi-legged worm was gone, but under the tree there was a pool of blood, black blood, and a pungent stench, and it seemed that some wild beast had been poisoned by the multi-legged worm last night, and it became its food.
The two walked cautiously, and they still encountered a lot of monsters along the way, which were real monsters, different from the elephant lions, tigers and leopards seen on TV, some had three tails, some had two heads, and some looked like creatures on the road, but they had wings on their backs.
Zhang Xiaotian didn't know these creatures at all, and Qiu Ling saw it with his eyes wide open, because these were the legendary species that had long been extinct, but they suddenly appeared with the changes of Tianhu Mountain.
And what shocked the two even more was the Tianhu Mountain itself, which was not very big, even if it was mutated and the area increased somewhat, but it was only a few dozen miles away, and when the two entered the mountain, they found that Tianhu Mountain was continuous, standing on the peak but there was no end in sight.
"I can't be dreaming, I just happened to something in the novel."
Qiu Ling looked at the continuous mountain peaks and felt that this was an independent space, otherwise how could the small Tianhu Mountain become so big.
"Where is the cave where the archaeological team went, the mountain has become so big, how can we find it."
Zhang Xiaotian didn't care about the weirdness of the mountain, what he cared about was the cave that the archaeological team had entered.
Boom!
The two of them were looking at the mountains in the distance, thinking about how to find the cave, when suddenly there was a loud earthquake behind them, and a tiger the size of an elephant suddenly jumped over.
