vs 150 We are one kind
One second, two seconds, three seconds......
It was only a few seconds, but Liu Tianming felt as if he had been waiting for a long century.
He saw that the ice was melting, and transparent water droplets were falling from the edge of Zheng Xiaoyue's white and delicate fingers. The remaining ice cubes were getting smaller and smaller, but it didn't fall, as if it had been glued to the surface of her fingers, only to slowly melt under the action of the outside temperature.
Suddenly, Liu Tianming saw water droplets fixed in mid-air.
It only took a second, and it fell.
It wasn't a water droplet, it was a small piece of ice frozen in the air, a piece of ice in the shape of a water droplet.
It fell to the ground, rolling, and the surface was covered with dust.
Liu Tianming's attention focused on Zheng Xiaoyue's fingers.
There was a thick white color, which had become transparent in an instant. Then, it goes from transparent to cloudy. It's like a very clear rice soup mixed with wisps of white substance.
Borneols appear and then quickly grow larger. It was an irregular circle with a lot of serrations around the edges. The diameter expands towards the edges, one centimeter, two centimeters, three centimeters...... This is almost the limit of Zheng Xiaoyue's ability.
"Wow! This, this is amazing. ”
Zheng Xiaoyue let out a low exclamation. Her wrist flipped, and the ice cube floated over the surface of her palm. Completely subconscious, she bent towards the middle five fingers, and the flat ice cube immediately began to deform in the direction of the palm movement. It is pinched, overlapped, piled up...... Eventually, it turned into a ball the size of a ping-pong ball.
The surprise in Liu Tianming's eyes had turned into excitement. He grabbed Zheng Xiaoyue's shoulder, unconsciously used his strength in his hand, and asked repeatedly, "How did you do it?" You, what have you done before? ”
Zheng Xiaoyue was a little dazed.
She didn't understand what was going on.
After thinking about it carefully, Zheng Xiaoyue said uncertainly: "Could it be related to what I ate before?" ”
What have you eaten?
The word "food" suddenly flashed through Liu Tianming's mind.
He felt heaven and hell at the same time, and unspeakable fear and anticipation lingered in his heart. He clenched his left fist hard and asked in a trembling voice, "What have you eaten?" ”
Zheng Xiaoyue turned sideways, looked through the gap between Liu Tianming's body and arms, and looked in the direction of the basement where Qi Yuanchang and the others were busy. Following the guidance of her gaze, although there were concrete steps as an obstacle, Liu Tianming still guessed what Zheng Xiaoyue wanted to say.
"The walking corpse? Did you eat the flesh on it? ”
Zheng Xiaoyue nodded honestly: "I ate a piece." But...... I, I'm not on my own initiative. At that time, it tried to kill me, but I couldn't beat it, so I bit it on the neck. I don't know why I suddenly want to eat its meat. I just suddenly felt that it tasted good and wanted to eat it, so I swallowed it. That one...... I promise, really just ate a piece. ”
Liu Tianming felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart: "What else? ”
Zheng Xiaoyue looked at him timidly, and her voice was very low: "I...... I also drank its blood. I think it's very sweet in blood. Only...... Just took a few more sips. ”
Liu Tianming let go of his hand, stepped back, and sat heavily on the ammunition box, his mind full of frantic thoughts.
There is no doubt that Zheng Xiaoyue, like herself, is also a mutated form of infection.
No, it could be a normal form. But for sure, she has the ability. The ice that had just been made was proof of this.
It was I who infected her.
I had that kind of relationship with her, got into her body, caused infections.
The immunization agent developed by Song Jiahao has limited effect and cannot turn the infected person back into a normal person. But it can limit the virus's control over the cells, so that Zheng Xiaoyue will not become a walking corpse.
Liu Tianming has been paying attention to Zheng Xiaoyue. From yesterday to now, Zheng Xiaoyue has not eaten sugar. This change made Liu Tianming very happy. He felt that the immunization medicine was very effective, and Zheng Xiaoyue should not need to eat a lot of raw meat like Chen Po.
But he never thought that Zheng Xiaoyue would become like himself and completely change his concept of food.
Wrong again.
It was not an ordinary food, but a biological nutrient that specifically acted on mutated cells.
Liu Tianming didn't think this was a good thing.
Perhaps, we are all monsters.
He has always wanted to protect the woman he loves. But she never dreamed that she would become her own kind.
Looking at Liu Tianming's tense and serious face, Zheng Xiaoyue felt a little weak. She leaned over and said worriedly, "Am I going to turn into some monster?" That guy's blood, will it be poisonous? Or what strange ingredient? ”
Liu Tianming's body trembled as if he was nervous.
He came back to his senses, and he had cleared out the messy thoughts. Looking at Zheng Xiaoyue's big watery eyes, Liu Tianming shook his head with a wry smile, sighed, and said very seriously: "Don't tell others about this matter." We just need to know for ourselves. Some things should be told to you, too. Now, though, is not the time to speak. Wait for the evening, when you go back, find a chance, and I'll tell you slowly. ”
Zheng Xiaoyue nodded as if she didn't understand.
Liu Tianming has regained his composure. He held Zheng Xiaoyue's beautiful face with both hands, felt the smoothness of his skin, and said softly, "I'm the same as you." We, in fact, are the same. ”
Whether she understands it or not, I can only tell her this for the time being.
……
The amount of ammunition stocked in the basement is large. Qi Yuanchang did not vacate them all. He took a third of it. After all, this is the command center of the various combat squads. Maybe someone will come back one after another. If you take it all yourself, what will happen to others?
He placed a note on the surface of the top ammo box, then closed the metal shrink door and turned to leave.
That was the address of Liu Tianming's residence.
Qi Yuanchang felt that if there were colleagues who could come back to supply ammunition, they should be able to find themselves according to this address.
Although, there is very little hope.
More than a dozen boxes of bullets were piled up in the compartment of the riot police car. Several Type 95 rifles were placed in an empty box. Huang He sat next to him, fiddling with a thick shotgun in his hand.
Liu Tianming got into the car and sat beside the Yellow River: "How is it, is it better?" ”
Huang He nodded, his face full of palpitations: "That guy is terrible." I never thought these mutated monsters would be so smart. If all the people infected by the virus become like this, it is better to leave a bullet for me as soon as possible, and I will feel happy to die. ”
As he spoke, he put down the shotgun in his hand, took out the bag of candy that he had stuffed in the morning from his backpack, took out a piece, peeled off the candy wrapper, and stuffed it into his mouth.
The Yellow River was eating sugar all the way. There were still the last two left in the plastic bag.
Looking at his indifferent, sloppy face, Liu Tianming's eyes flashed with a trace of hesitation. After thinking about it, he still took out a small medicine bottle from his jacket pocket, shook out a dark red pill from it, and handed it over.
Huang He glanced at him: "What is this?" ”
"A medicine that works with immunotherapy agents."
Liu Tianming's lying has become a habit, and he said calmly: "Eating it can slow down the side effects of your body after injection." ”
Huang He didn't suspect it, took the medicine, didn't use water, and swallowed it directly.
It was an ordinary tablet of indigo root. Liu Tianming treated it with his own blood, and Huang He swallowed it, which was equivalent to taking Liu Tianming's blood.
This special pill was made by Liu Tianming after careful consideration last night. To be honest, it wasn't that he didn't believe Song Jiahao, but he just had an indescribable feeling that ———— that kind of immune medicine didn't seem to be complete, and it lacked some special ingredients. Maybe Song Jiahao has noticed this, but he just doesn't have enough time to correct it and then make up for it. As he said in his last words, if he had obtained Liu Tianming's blood earlier, the situation would not have turned out like this.
The Yellow River has shown significant symptoms of sugar addiction.
Immunity potions may be able to keep him from turning into a walking corpse. However, according to Liu Tianming's experience, the Yellow River may one day show symptoms of craving raw meat. If that's the case, then the immunization agent is incomplete. The only thing he could do was to refer to the changes that happened to Zheng Xiaoyue and let Huang He swallow his own blood.
If there is no error in the calculation, the immunization agent will add its own blood to really have an effect. Although they are still infected by the virus, at least they will not become walking corpses, nor will they lose their minds.
It's just that even Liu Tianming didn't expect that Zheng Xiaoyue would actually start hunting food at this time.
He didn't know how much Zheng Xiaoyue had eaten, nor did he know how much Kaller's biological nutrition that the mutated walking corpse could provide Zheng Xiaoyue.
Maybe a Karl, or around zero-eight.
At that time, there was only so much in the end of cellular sensing. Although it is not necessarily accurate, there is not much of an error.
Liu Tianming is now desperate to take a look in the hospital office.
He had a very strong feeling that Song Jiahao's last words were definitely not finished. There must be more secrets in that computer on his desk in his office.
Gotta go to the hospital!
Definitely going back!
Qi Yuanchang clicked on the weapons in the carriage and waved his hand to Liu Tianming, who was sitting on the side: "Xiao Liu, sit in front." ”
Liu Tianming was a little surprised: "Why? ”
Qi Yuanchang said as a matter of course: "There are too many things in the car, we have to go back first, unload some of them, and then go to the hospital." You're familiar over there, and you're immune to the virus. Sitting in the front, you can lead the way, and it is easy to deal with emergencies. ”
Liu Tianming agreed, bent over, jumped out of the car, and walked in the direction of the co-pilot.
Zhou Yuan was about to close the car door, but his movements suddenly froze. He looked in the direction of the parking lot in the distance for a few seconds, then quickly turned around and pulled Qi Yuanchang in the driver's seat hard: "Captain, look over there, there are people there." ”
