Chapter 6: Visions Spread
Back at home, he turned on the light. [Ran^Text^Library] [www]. [774] [buy]. [com] [Burning Library (7764)] It's been more than half a month since I left, and everything in the room is business as usual. He put things down, took a hot shower, and felt relaxed all over his body. Zhuang Yichen rents a bachelor apartment in the company. Although it is only more than 40 square meters, it is also divided into one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, which is enough to be called a luxury in this city with Zhuang Yichen's current income level. This is probably the best perk of his job. After taking a shower, he took out a bucket of instant noodles from the box on the ground and soaked it, then turned on the TV and switched channels boredly on the sofa. Suddenly, a gossip news program caught Zhuang Yichen's attention.
"Focus on the strange things in the world and attract the attention of the world. Let's take a look at a set of anecdotes. ”
Not long ago, Mr. Wang, who lives in Beijing, found a huge mouse in the basement of his house, this mouse is about 30 centimeters long, the body is the thickness of an adult's thigh, and it is not afraid of people, which surprised Mr. Wang. After being surprised, Mr. Wang quickly took out his mobile phone to take a picture of the mutated mouse and posted it in the circle of friends. ”
Coincidentally, such a strange thing happened to Ms. Zheng in Shanxi who also experienced it once. Ms. Zheng was sitting on the sofa watching TV when a huge mutant mouse suddenly swaggered out of her bedroom and walked around the living room before slowly going to the kitchen. The frightened Ms. Zheng immediately ran out of the house to call for help from her neighbors, but everyone searched the entire kitchen and found no trace of the mutant rats, and finally found a large hole in the wall behind the cabinet, it turned out that the mutant rats had already escaped from here. ”
Zhuang Yichen looked at the program on TV and frowned. In the past, when I saw such a show, I would have thought that it was just something hyped up by the media to attract everyone's attention, but now it is different. You can have a mysterious little tower in your brain, so what incredible thing can't happen? He looked at the gaping holes in the solid walls of masonry and cement on the television screen, and felt even more that there was a good chance that these things were actually happening.
He took instant noodles to his bedroom and turned on his computer, and the information on the Internet was more complex, faster, and sometimes more credible than on television. He logged into several influential forums in China to see if there was anything similar. However, as soon as he entered the forum, he froze, and the forum was swiped by the same thing, and the dozen pages down were almost all about mutant creatures. There are animals and plants that are abnormal, ants the size of thumbs, spiders the size of fists, and creepers that cover entire walls overnight. Zhuang Yichen took a sip of the instant noodles in his hand, and then put the instant noodles on the table next to him to carefully examine these posts.
The forum was very lively, and the news of these mutated creatures was like a stimulant shot for countless lonely people in front of computer screens. There are thousands of replies at the bottom of each post, some people echo it, some people like it, and some people scold PS dogs for coming to brush up on popularity; There are also people who say that the earth will have the same great biological evolution as in the Cambrian period, and it is very good to quote scriptures; There is also a large group of otaku full of post-apocalyptic fantasies calling on humans to build bases and prepare in advance. If it were normal times, Zhuang Yichen would definitely roll up his sleeves and participate in the discussion when he looked at these interesting topics, and maybe he could even use his forum level and popularity to pull out a vote of people to spoof a post-apocalyptic base. But at this moment, Zhuang Yichen had no such interest, he flipped through the pictures attached to the post by netizens, and his brows became deeper and deeper. Most of these photos were taken by netizens themselves, and the pixels are not very good, but they also appear more real and credible. In the past, it was not without some boring people in the forum to photoshop some bizarre photos to earn everyone's attention, but this time so many people posted the same thing, and the credibility is very high. After all, boring people are only a few, Zhuang Yichen contacted the mysterious small tower in his body again, and he concluded that something terrible must have happened!
Zhuang Yichen didn't come up with any clue after thinking about it for a long time, he got too few clues, and there was no way to deduce a general conclusion based on these things alone. So he stopped thinking about these problems for the first time, turned off the computer and lay down on the bed and fell asleep. After a tiring day, he fell asleep not long after his head hit the pillow.
When he woke up the next morning, the feeling of being full of energy returned to his body. He felt that he was full of inexhaustible strength. He got out of bed and experimented, and he could easily lift his desk with only one hand, and if he wasn't afraid that the computer on it would fall, he would have no problem lifting it with one hand. He clenched his fists in satisfaction, now his strength should be twice the size of an adult male. With a move in his mind, Zhuang Yichen entered the inner space of the small tower, and the mutation of his body must be related to this mysterious small tower. The space inside the small tower is still the same, but the aqua blue beads that were originally suspended in the center of the room have become colorless and transparent, Zhuang Yichen entered the beads again curiously, and the blue mist that was originally filled with the space inside the beads has disappeared, replaced by some colorful air currents. There were very few of these multicolored air currents, so Zhuang Yichen didn't even notice their presence on the outside of the beads just now. The air flow was very light and light, only a thin wisp, gently fluttering in the empty space.
Looking at these colorful air currents, Zhuang Yichen fell into deep thought. He had read the "Kunlun Sword Sect's Primer's Manual", so he also had some understanding of cultivation. No matter what kind of exercises, there is one thing that is inseparable, and that is Reiki! Aura is the foundation of the entire cultivation world, and only with aura can qi be channeled into the body, so as to cast a series of spells with great magical powers. Originally, the aqua blue mist in the beads should be the water aura, and only the water aura can have such a powerful repair and nourishing effect on the human body. Now those colorful air currents should be the aura of other attributes of the outside world. Zhuang Yichen followed this train of thought and continued to think down, it is very likely that something major has happened that has made this world have aura again, so the mysterious small tower, the inheritance of the Kunlun Sword Sect, these things that only exist in legends have reappeared, will those mutated creatures also be nourished by the aura, so they will mutate! Zhuang Yichen thought of this, and his eyes lit up. Those original doubts can be explained at once, and he feels that his guess must be very close to the truth! Otherwise, how can so many bizarre and bizarre things be explained?
He opened the bedroom door and poured himself a glass of water to get something to eat in the fridge. Suddenly, Zhuang Yichen's hand stretched out to the water dispenser paused. Because he inadvertently glanced at the afterglow and saw a scene that stunned him. There has been a small pot of spider plant on the balcony of his house, which was given to him by a colleague in the past, and Zhuang Yichen did not take care of it very carefully after taking it home, so the growth of this pot of spider plant has not been very good, and a few leaves are hanging down half-dead, and there are some signs of yellowing at the top. And now, Zhuang Yichen has been away for more than half a month, and this pot of untended spider plants not only did not wither, but grew more luxuriant! The lush foliage spread out in all directions, almost enveloping most of the balcony. The well-developed root system breaks through the sturdy ceramic flower pot and becomes an aerial root that can directly absorb water vapor from the air, hideously exposed to the outside, like a demonic tentacle poking out of hell, provoking the whole world with teeth and claws!
Zhuang Yichen looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly a coldness surged from the bottom of his heart from his back to the top of his head, causing a layer of goosebumps on his exposed skin. Just a small pot of spider plants can evolve to such a terrifying level under the nourishment of aura, so what if such an evolution is put on other creatures? There is no need for large mammals, just those insects are enough to cause a catastrophe in the human world! Zhuang Yichen thought of the TV show he watched that day, if rats all over the world mutated like that, and the solid brick wall could easily gnaw a big hole, what would be the consequences? Thinking of this, he didn't dare to think about it anymore. He felt that he needed to make some preparations now, and he had been vaguely feeling a sense of crisis since he obtained the small tower. And now, that sense of crisis is clearer and more urgent.
After finding something to eat from the refrigerator to fill his stomach, Zhuang Yichen cleaned up the pot of spider plants that had mutated and threw them into the trash bin along with the flower pots. God knows if this thing will continue to evolve, suddenly become something similar to a man-eating flower, and then quietly strangle me with its roots in my sleep, turning it into nutrients that continue to grow it. Zhuang Yichen thought a little stunned in his heart. Humans are always full of fear of the unknown. After all, no one can treat it calmly when they see a pot of flowers in their house suddenly mutate.
Throwing away the spider plant, he went home and began to calculate. All his savings have been spent, and now he only has two thousand yuan in the bedside table in the bedroom, and it is Zhuang Yichen's habit to keep a little emergency money at any time. He thought that the money was enough to store some food, and he couldn't put too many things in his storage space, and he estimated that there would be some left over by then. The rest of the money will buy some decoration materials to strengthen the windows and doors. I live on the seventh floor, and even if I lock the doors and windows, even if it is a relatively independent closed space, the safety factor will be higher. He was ready to buy things and then closed his door for less than a month, quietly observing the movements of the outside world.
With this thought in his heart, he no longer hesitated, put on his clothes and prepared to go out.
