……

Wu Ming never felt that time passed so quickly, and he was also racing against time and made all the preparations.

At three o'clock in the afternoon of September 10, after taking a hot shower, Wu Ming sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, but he couldn't calm down.

I'm afraid that only he knows what terrible things will happen in a few hours, but he knows but can't stop it, this feeling is quite difficult, just like a patient who knows that he has a terminal illness, but he can't do anything about it, he can only wait to spend his little remaining life.

So much so that Wu Ming's hands trembled unconsciously.

Time is slowly going on, all kinds of news about the fall of meteorites and frequent bloodshed incidents in various places are constantly staged on TV, today in broad daylight, there have been many areas attacked by 'meteorites', many people have been killed in the incident, the news has been broadcast to advise citizens around the country to stay at home and not go out of the alarm.

At noon, Wu Ming called his colleague Li Xia and asked her to come to his home as a guest. Li Xia, as one of Wu Ming's few friends in Yucheng, naturally wanted to keep her peaceful and let her come to his house to hide, and Wu Ming wanted to haodejihua early on.

It's just that at four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xia, who was supposed to arrive a long time ago, never came, and just now, Wu Ming's phone rang at this time, and it was Li Xia calling.

Wu Ming, who thought that Li Xia had arrived, hurriedly picked up the phone and asked Li Xia to come here This is also what Wu Ming has been thinking about for a long time, the house here is strong enough, the windows have protective nets, anti-theft doors are installed, and there are many materials, the chance of survival here is obviously much greater, but Li Xia told Wu Ming on the phone that she could not come.

"Wu Ming, I'm really sorry, a lady next door suddenly fell ill, her children are not around, and it's too chaotic outside, I have to stay and take care of her, so I can only go to you another day." Li Xia on the other end of the phone said apologetically.

Wu Ming was immediately a little anxious when he heard this, he knew that Li Xia was kind-hearted, and to put it mildly, it was rotten and kind, but at this juncture, how could she stay there, Li Xia on the other end of the phone was obviously very anxious, and after finishing speaking, he hung up directly, Wu Ming called back, and it was unexpectedly prompted that he could not be connected.

Next, Wu Ming couldn't get through when he dialed several times in a row, but he knew that he was in trouble.

Looking at the time, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon, according to Wu Ming's jihua, it was best to stay at home at this time, and when it was past nine o'clock in the evening, the disaster would happen, and the vitality in the air would be much higher, and then you could collect the vitality without going out, maybe half a month, maybe a month, you could collect the amount of twenty-four units of the awakened vitality, once you awakened, then everything would be fine, at least at this stage, the awakened person has a survivability that ordinary people cannot match.

However, Li Xia's breach of contract broke his Jihua, and at this time he fell into a situation of war between heaven and man. On the one hand, he knew that he could ignore Li Xia, and then wait for awakening in this strong fortress according to the jihua he had formulated, and then go to seize various cards to improve his chances of survival. It's just that in this way, Li Xia will still cut off contact with the previous life, maybe she will die, after all, when the disaster happened, many people died.

At the same time, on the other hand, Wu Ming had a bold jihua in his mind, that is, to find Li Xia while there were still a few hours left, and to bring her here no matter what. But there is no doubt that if you leave here, you will face many dangers, what if you can't find Li Xia? What if you encounter an unknown situation on the road? What if those cards are activated early? If you can't get back here in time, you'll be in big trouble.

There is no doubt that this jihua is too risky.

"Come on, Wu Ming, she is not related to you, she is just a female colleague, but she usually has a better relationship, can she take risks for her? Those cards will be activated soon, if you can't come back in time, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the place where Li Xia lives is more than twenty kilometers away from here, there are too many accidents that may be encountered on the road, stay and leave her alone, you are just an ordinary office worker, you can't take risks. ”

In Wu Ming's heart, such a voice kept coming, indeed, it was already a little dark outside, and it was really unwise to go out at this time.

But Wu Ming had another voice in his heart.

"Wu Ming, you coward, there is still time, although Li Xia is not related to you, but she has helped you a lot in the company, in this city, she is the only one who can be called a friend, only she lends you when you are short of money, when you are drunk, she runs a few streets to find hot water to help you sober up, and she also helps you clean up the dirty desk every day, if there is no Li Xia, you are alone in Yucheng. And now, would you like to just watch your friend die and ignore it? If that's the case, even if you can awaken, you're still a weakling, and in the new shijie, the weak can't survive, and you'll still die, even if it's not now, you'll still die! ”

The two voices in his mind kept intertwining, and at this time, Wu Ming suddenly remembered a detail. He once participated in a beach tour organized by the company and saw Li Xia wearing a bikini. Of course, Wu Ming remembered this at this time, not because he missed Li Xia's infinitely beautiful figure, but because he vaguely remembered that there was a small birthmark on Li Xia's inner thigh.

Birthmarks are very common, it's nothing, and Wu Ming doesn't care about it, but if it is combined with three years of new shijie's survival experience, it will be different.

In my memory, the birthmark on Li Xia's inner thigh has a very peculiar shape, like a crescent moon. In the new shijie, Wu Ming had seen a similar pattern, which was on the wrist of a strong man, and that strong man was also an awakened person, and much stronger than Wu Ming, at that time Wu Ming had not yet awakened, mixed in a group of refugees, and watched the strong man as if he had encountered some treasure, and carefully took away a boy who also had that crescent birthmark on his neck.

There is no doubt that this mark is quite unusual.

Since he came back from rebirth, Wu Ming has been busy preparing, and it is only now that he suddenly remembers such a thing. No one knew what that kind of mark meant, and Wu Ming didn't know either, but he knew that he had a very sufficient excuse to rescue Li Xia.

Perhaps, this is really an excuse, after all, Wu Ming's memory of the beach is very vague, maybe it was just a sand stain, but it doesn't matter anymore, because Wu Ming has already made a decision.

He still decided to go to Li Xia, after all, there was still time, and after absorbing nearly five units of vitality in the past few days, Wu Ming's current physique was nearly twice as high as that of a normal adult, and he could deal with it even if he encountered an emergency.

That mysterious crescent moon mark, Wu Ming wanted to figure out what it represented in his last life, how could he let go of this opportunity this time?

Thinking of this, Wu Ming immediately took action, he first sent a text message to Li Xia, the content of which was to tell her that he would go to her and tell her to stay at home and not go anywhere. Now that the phone can't get through, he can only hope for text messages, and then he found a backpack, stuffed the scale armor he bought, and at the same time stuffed in a few bottles of mineral water and biscuits, and then found a piece of cloth, wrapped the Tang knife that had been bladed, carried it behind his back, took the vitality collector, and then pushed open the door and walked out.

There were several demonstrations in the streets today, and there were even more bloody clashes, and the citizens wanted to know the truth, because they were scared, but they didn't know, and the officials were as scared as they were.

Because of the complete chaos outside, most citizens choose to stay at home from the morning, and the streets appear empty, with only the occasional police car in a hurry.

Yucheng is very large, if it can be divided into a new city and an old city according to the region, Wu Ming is currently in the new city, the buildings are open, the facilities are very new, and Li Xia lives in the old city, from here to rush over, it takes about an hour to take the subway.

And there are still more than three hours before the time for the card to be activated, and theoretically more than enough time to come and go, Wu Ming walked quickly at the moment and walked to the nearest subway station.

At this time, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded in the distance, and this distance sounded a bit like the sound of firecrackers, but Wu Ming, who had three years of experience in the survival of Xinshijie, immediately recognized that this was a gunshot, a real gunshot.

According to the magnitude of the sound, Wu Ming judged that the gunfire came from 500 meters away, but he didn't know what was happening there, and this was the first time that there was a gunfire in the city.

Speeding up, Wu Ming finally entered a nearby subway station, and along the way he saw a group of young men with iron rods and bricks, smashing open the glass of a shop and robbing property, which was not unusual at this stage.

It's just that when Wu Ming arrived at the subway station, he was dumbfounded, the electronic screen of the subway station showed that the subway line was currently suspended, and the entrance was also surrounded by an iron fence, so he couldn't enter at all.

"Damn!" Wu Ming scolded secretly, if you can't take the subway, then how can you get to the old city?

Don't ask, it's so messy now, since the subway has stopped, the bus must have stopped, just along the road did not see a bus, not to mention the bus, even private cars are very few, and most of them are in a hurry.

The public transportation system is suspended, so it is a little difficult to go to the old city, Wu Ming is poor and has no money to buy a car, and now he can only think of another idea.

Walking is obviously not a good idea, twenty kilometers away, it takes too much time to walk over, but soon, Wu Ming found that there were several bicycles locked on the side of the road in front of him, and there was no one at a glance, but Wu Ming secretly walked over in his heart.

A few minutes later, pedaling a stolen mountain bike, Wu Ming rushed in the direction of the old town.

There was no danger along the way, but it took more than an hour to get to the old city where Li Xia was located, and Wu Ming also made several calls along the way, most of which were not connected, and occasionally no one answered once or twice to get through.

When he arrived at the community where Li Xia lived, it was already dark, Wu Ming looked at the time on his watch, it was already 7:15 in the evening, and he quickly went upstairs, and when he arrived at the door of Li Xia's house, Wu Ming knocked on the door.

Although the time is a little tight, it is still too late to find Li Xia and take her back, but soon Wu Ming found that something was wrong, he knocked on the door for a full three minutes, and Zuihou even smashed it, but there was no response in the house.

Perhaps Wu Ming's knocking on the door was too noisy, and the security door next door opened a crack, revealing a man with a beard on his face.

"Knock on what, who are you looking for?"

No need to ask, this person must be Li Xia's neighbor, and when Wu Ming asked, the latter said, "Oh, are you looking for Li Xia?" Aunt Wang next door had a heart attack, and Li Xia took her to the hospital. ”

"Went to the hospital? Which hospital? Wu Ming hurriedly asked.

"I don't know!" After speaking, the bearded man closed the door, leaving only the stunned Wu Ming in the corridor.
