Chapter 80: The Way Home
In the face of Zhuang Zhou and Yang Xiaoqi's inquiry, Ye Feng only roughly explained the method of obtaining one exercise.
As for what it was, he did not specify.
The people of the Dark Ages adhered to a basic truth: never test human nature.
If the conditions are sufficient, a saint can also be transformed into a demon in an instant. It doesn't matter if it's light or dark, it's just nature.
"Vientiane Ten Thousand Tribulations Immortal Divine Skill" is obviously different from the "Three Lives Sword Technique" and "Xuantian Catalogue" that Ye Feng had been in contact with before, and he didn't know how to describe this difference, because this exercise was the same as the immortal technique that Yuan Jun gave him, and it could not be described in words.
But at least one thing, as the top practice of the immortal world, the support of the aura required is immeasurable.
The aura contained in the jade slip seems to be endless, but it is Zhuang Zhou's treasure, and the aura cannot be replenished in the earth's environment, in case it causes damage to the treasure itself, it is really difficult to explain.
Zhuang Zhou also did not advise him to start cultivating now, in the case of serious damage to the meridians, blindly cultivating the new exercises was tantamount to suicide, the more powerful the exercises, the faster he would die.
Ye Feng's realm fell to the early stage of qi refining, and another consequence that followed was that the strength of the physical body refining was also greatly weakened.
If you meet a grinder again, it will be him who will be turned into a dog.
It is impossible for his strength to recover in the short term, so Bingsa is always a sharp sword hanging over the heads of the three of them. Zhuang Zhou proposed to set off immediately and hurried overnight.
Along the way, I passed through several abandoned cities, and there was no city like Luoyang.
Occasionally, human survivors come out in groups in search of food, ragged and glazed eyes like walking corpses.
Yang Xiaoqi couldn't help shouting: "We're going to Weinan, do you want to go together?" ”
No one responds, they live numbly, just alive.
Ye Feng is undoubtedly a foodie, and Yang Xiaoqi's second-level strengthened meal is not small. It took them a lot of time to collect food, and the main harvest was mutant creatures, mutated rabbits, mutated rats.
The high temperature can kill the virus, but the taste is really not complimentary.
Ye Feng began to miss the food in Luoyang.
On the afternoon of the seventh day, Luoyang City reappeared on the horizon.
Looking at the dark warriors walking back and forth on the city, he knew that the miracle was gone, and no one was saved.
Although I was prepared in advance, I really saw it, and it was still embarrassing.
The three of them discussed, and at Ye Feng's insistence, Zhuang Zhou and Yang Xiaoqi stayed in the factory outside the city, and Ye Feng secretly sneaked into the city to find out the news.
Luoyang, under the control of dark creatures, does not have a proper organizational defense force. Except for the fact that there are many dark creatures gathered near the city gate, which is not suitable for passing, the 60-kilometer-long city wall is useless to Ye Feng, and there are entrances everywhere.
He carried the Xuanyuan Excalibur on his back and easily climbed over the wall.
The city is still in chaos, and the dark warriors are everywhere fighting each other, and the victor will kill his opponent and take the black crystal from the back of his head, which he can't wait to throw into his mouth and chew on.
In a small number of neighborhoods, the Dark Lords have been created, and order has begun to be restored to a certain extent. The Dark Warriors cleaned up the streets in an organized manner, and there were small patrols to maintain the territory.
After wandering around for an hour and not seeing a single living person, Ye Feng had to accept a reality. Today's Luoyang is no longer a human city.
What happened at that time, where did Li Yan go, and is Yang Beibing still alive?
These are questions that no one can answer.
Dark creatures are not a species that loves to chat, and several dark creatures get together and often don't hear a single conversation for half a day.
It is even more impractical to capture a captive and torture him.
There is some kind of peculiar connection between dark creatures, and killing is not a big problem, and the only consequence of catching torture is to expose yourself.
Ye Feng's current strength has dropped a lot, once it is blocked, it is still necessary to say whether he can break through the encirclement.
He seems to have lost his direction, and it is certainly unrealistic to search the whole city, so it is better to go to the military headquarters of the First Army in Luoyang to have a look.
Quietly taking out several of the Dark Warriors at the door, he entered the elevator and went straight to the top floor.
The elevator doors opened, and the hallway was covered in blood. The corpses on the ground were gnawed beyond recognition, and it could only be roughly judged from the rag-like military uniforms that the deceased was Li Yan's female secretary and several staff officers.
Judging from the traces left behind, Li Yan never returned.
He went down two floors and went to the monitoring room, but there was no live mouth either.
The surveillance system was still working, and he didn't have that much time to look through the footage, so he only removed some hard drives, found a backpack and packed them.
The disk arrays are so large that it would certainly be unrealistic to take them all away. He didn't have enough expertise to sift through them, and it was all up to luck to remove them to see if they contained useful information.
In the end, he went to the room arranged for him by Li Yan.
In the closet of the room hung a set of army colonel's regular uniform, which was made to order with the one he wore at the ceremony.
He took off his monk's robe and changed into a military uniform in front of the mirror.
Just take it as a commemoration, at least, the First Army of Luoyang, and a colonel.
Walking out of the building, he glanced back.
Goodbye, Luoyang Army.
What he didn't know was that at this moment, Li Yan and Yang Beibing were in the underground vault, less than fifty meters away from him in a straight line.
Out of the city, he deliberately went to the place where he fought Bingsa in a decisive battle.
He didn't find Shen Hou, and when he left, he stepped on something in his foot, and when he looked down, it turned out to be the scabbard of the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, which was specially ordered by Li Yan for the ceremony.
Nowadays, things are wrong, and the great "Salvation Army Plan" is just a dream of Nanke after all.
Since Yang Beibing's mecha has not been found, he may theoretically be alive, but such a search is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
Yang Xiaoqi didn't give up, and went into the city to look for two days, but found nothing.
Sometimes, no news is the best news, and Yang Xiaoqi was extremely conflicted and complicated when she left Luoyang.
Five days later, the trio arrived at the Weinan base.
Walking through the lively streets of the outer refugee camp, Ye Feng's heart felt like a world away.
Huang Shan, who received the news, personally greeted the gate of the base, and when he saw Ye Feng's colonel's uniform, he sighed silently in his heart, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
"Third brother, is there any news from Shen Hou?"
Huang Shan shook his head, it was a few days before the base learned the news of the outbreak of the war, and the base urgently called a satellite for this purpose, but the information obtained was quite limited.
The layout of the base in the earth world is always too little.
There are some procedures to go through when returning to the base, mainly in terms of epidemic prevention, and it is a big meal when it is over.
After learning about Yang Xiaoqi's talent in mechas, Huang Shan was very interested and introduced her to the expert group.
It just so happened that physicist Gao Bailin was a good friend of Yang Xiaoqi's father, and he was very happy to see Yang Xiaoqi in tears.
Huang Shan attached great importance to Zhuang Zhou, specially invited him to the office, and chatted for more than four hours behind closed doors.
For a special agent like Ye Feng who is used to running the Qin State, Zhuang Zhou is just like that, isn't he just an old gentleman.
Soon, he saw the power of Zhuang Zhou.
This is Zhuang Zhou, since the base was built, which of the big names who have been here is bigger than Zhuangzi?
One by one, the management of the base asked Zhuang Zhou to meet with him. Finally, a class of Chinese culture was organized in the auditorium, and Zhuang Zhou personally narrated Zhuangzi's philosophical thoughts.
Of course, most of the students attending the meeting did not know that Zhuangzi himself was standing on the pulpit.
Zhuang Zhouxian on the pulpit was a good teacher, and the lecture was humorous, and the applause in the auditorium continued. Later, the craze for Chinese studies and Zhuangzi arose in the base, but it was unexpected.
