Chapter 220: A knife actually grew on his forearm
Zhao Hui was sent directly to the room on the second floor, next door to Zhang Mingwei's original dormitory. Now there are very few people here, and almost two-thirds of the rooms are empty.
Soon someone brought hot water and clean clothes, and Cui Xiping cleaned Zhao Hui's wounds with her own hands.
There's nothing to be embarrassed about, both of them have seen each other naked, and they should pay too much attention to this kind of crisis. The body matters, and everything else is put aside entirely.
"Go get busy!"
Zhao Hui knew that Cui Xiping was very busy, and there were still too many things to deal with just after replacing Zhang Mingwei.
Cui Xiping shook her head and insisted on staying upstairs to take care of Zhao Hui, completely thinking about his safety. Although Zhang Mingwei is dead, and those who stayed behind have also been recruited, there will definitely be spies here.
If someone takes this opportunity to attack Zhao Hui, it is entirely possible to succeed.
Zhao Hui had a fever all night, and the temperature was getting higher and higher. I thought that night was the most painful, but I didn't expect it to be worse in two days. He was shaking.
But the strange thing is that Cui Xiping touched his forehead and felt that it was not burning, but Zhao Hui himself was as cold as falling into an ice cave.
Fortunately, I finally fell asleep in a trance, and the fever began to subside at dawn.
Cui Xiping guarded like that, even if she saw the bones on Zhao Hui's arms and back getting longer and longer, she couldn't do anything about it. Even more terrifying, is he mutating into a Ripper, and if so, how should he face it?
The sun peeked in through the window and sprinkled on the sheets beside Zhao Hui. He sat up slowly, and what caught his eye was Cui Xiping's anxious and haggard face.
"It's dawn?"
Cui Xiping nodded, "You're finally awake!" ”
Zhao Hui exerted a slight force, and was able to get off the ground from the bed. It felt like something was tight behind me, like a backpack on my back, but it didn't hurt much.
Isn't it good?
Looking at the arm again, the bone is already submerged under the skin, and it can be faintly seen. Try grasping the ten fingers to check if the affected area is affecting hand function. Something unexpected happened, and just as I was exerting force, the bone that had been sunk under the skin popped out like a blade.
The two were shocked, it turned out that it was not a bone at all, but a knife, a bone knife that grew on Zhao Hui's arm. The length was at least fifteen centimeters longer than the fist he had raised, as if he were holding a knife in his hand.
"Oh my God!" Cui Xiping couldn't help but scream.
Zhao Hui hurriedly moved his shoulders to drive his back muscles, and he could feel something sticking out on both sides. Turning his head to look over, a pair of large chicken wings with no feathers were hanging on his body.
"Wings?" Cui Xiping couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
It was a pair of wings with warmth, slick and not covered in feathers.
"I can feel it."
Zhao Hui could clearly feel his hands caressing him, which proved that the wings and bone knives grew out of his body, connected to flesh and blood, and his nerves were connected. Don't ask, feathers will grow after a while.
Cui Xiping said jokingly: "I also want the ripper to catch it twice, maybe it will also grow wings." ”
Zhao Hui pretended to glare at her, and shook his head helplessly, "If you are caught, you will itch to death." ”
Cui Xiping understands the pain of the evolutionary process, no matter what level of change has to go through a baptism of life and death.
Zhao Hui was reborn from the fire this time, and he actually grew wings.
He asked as he got dressed, "Have all the leaders been here?" ”
Cui Xiping shook her head, Zong Zewei has been suffering from ideological illness these days, and what he was assigned to do has not been completed on time. It should be that guy who sees that Cui Xiping and Zhao Hui's abilities far exceed expectations, and they don't look like puppets who can be at his mercy.
As early as the two expected, neither of them would be at the mercy of outsiders out of thin air. Especially Zong Zewei has been operating in the Orange District all his life, thinking that he would be able to get ahead by killing Zhang Mingwei, but in the end, he ushered in a new leader, mainly because this man and woman are more powerful than Zhang Mingwei.
Even if the origin of the two giant beasts was not revealed during that night's operation, Zhao Hui later turned into a unicorn in the cave and there was no news of anyone alive. But Zong Zewei has become more and more aware that something is wrong, and he is nesting in his East Ninth District to think of countermeasures.
didn't dare to openly confront that woman, the leaders of the big and small clans had actually been notified, but the time was set for a week, and he wanted to observe Cui Xiping's movements before that.
If it is not good for her and she can't bear it, she will collude with those tribes to oppose her inauguration before the official meeting. It was not a "legitimate" position in the first place, and if all the clan leaders unanimously stood up and demanded her resignation, then she could not be helped.
Zong Zewei's methods are completely in Zhao Hui's hands. Cui Xiping is not in a hurry, at least there are people available at the moment. As long as you don't take the initiative to provoke hostile tribes, you can adapt safely.
After counting, there were twenty men left behind in the headquarters, and they no longer needed to wear masks all day long, but showed their true faces. In addition to this, there are seven maids, who are responsible for the daily life of these people in the building.
There are also ancillary facilities at the back of the building, a small oil well and supporting refineries, and small power plants, which are the key to Chang's rule over the Orange District. Cui Xiping was well aware of their importance and sent the main security forces to garrison this place.
It's not just the unknown sneakers to guard against, but the masked men who fled that night, and they may be able to kill back the carbine to wreak havoc. Of course, there is also the biggest pretender, Zong Zewei, who can be said to occupy the right time and place, and may seize control of these facilities at any time.
Zhao Hui walked to the basement, and the familiar dark space in front of him no longer existed, replaced by a bright workshop.
Although the loss of manpower led to the temporary suspension of production, he was surprised by the neat workbench and piles of weapon parts. Unexpectedly, Cui Xiping has special talents in management and is fully capable of taking on important responsibilities.
It was right to choose her here at the time, and if it was necessary to let her manage a larger area in the future.
"How?" Cui Xiping also followed at some point and stood behind him.
Zhao Hui nodded and praised sincerely.
"After a while, we can get some new equipment and new technology to build an arsenal in the real sense, we need a lot of firearms ......"
"What do you mean......?"
Zhao Hui explained: "If everything goes well, the construction of the special zone has been accelerated, and it is estimated that by the time I go back, the headquarters building will have been built......
Cui Xiping smiled slightly, "What does this have to do with making guns?" ”
Zhao Hui had his plan and explained: "Of course it matters, why did we build that building? ”
Cui Xiping thought about it and couldn't find more reasons, so she said suspiciously: "Better management of the coastal nuclear area?" ”
Zhao Hui laughed, changing the sickness he still had in the morning, "That's right, it's not easy to manage the coastal nuclear area." So many wanderers and rippers, and a coalition of humans eyeing the world......"
Seeing his eyebrows fluttering, Cui Xiping became happy, "We have so many tantalum coins, and we can import weapons from the Second Autonomous Region, as long as you open your mouth, I don't know how many people rush to do business." ”10
