Chapter 5: The Internalized Approach (Seeking Follow-up)

The people of Sweetwater came out to practice, and they didn't plan to go back at night, and packed up a makeshift camp in a collapsed house with three broken walls.

The gravel garbage is thrown out and piled up on the side without a wall, and the ground is relatively flat, at least it is not awkward to lie down and sleep.

On the way, Zhuo Cheng relieved his breath, drank some water again, and was already able to walk, and followed Zhang Fan and Du Qi to the camp crookedly.

Behind the high pile of ruins rose a man, with a particularly white face with a waxy sheen, lowered the mechanical crossbow in his hand, and greeted: "Hey, Mayor Mare, Big Nose, it's back." Hey, how do you bring back a scavenger? ”

He looked at Zhuo Cheng, whose clothes were torn into strips of cloth: "Hey, these clothes are transparent and cool!" Hey, how do you shave your hair? The head is so bright! ”

Zhuo Cheng subconsciously touched his head, only touched the smooth scalp, and when he came over, he noticed that not only his hair was gone, but the sweat and eyebrows on his face were gone, and his head was bare like a braised egg.

Without waiting for Zhuo Cheng to reply, the wax-like white face said again: "Hey, the radiation energy actually twisted out a tumor under your nose?" No matter how big you are, you won't be able to breathe! Tsk, you tumor is really personal, and you have a crescent in the middle! ”

"Say less, save some effort to keep vigil!" Dooch climbed over the pile of rubble, and his heavy feet fell on it, crushing a lot of rubble.

Zhang Fan said to Zhuo Cheng: "This is Lin Sheng, there are a lot of words. ”

Zhuo Cheng smiled at the man: "Hello, my name is Zhuo Cheng." ”

Lin Sheng nodded: "Come in." ”

After entering the temporary camp with three broken walls and his head facing the sky, Zhuo Cheng consciously found a corner to sit down.

Dudge had a bony pipe in his mouth, pulled a lump from his waist bag, and stuffed it into the pipe, three rough metal fingers came to him, and his thumb and middle finger and index finger were pinched, and the sparks splashed everywhere, and the pipe smoked.

"What about native?" He puffed out yellow smoke.

Lin Sheng said: "Ah, go, he's always like this, how much and urine ......"

Duge interrupted, "How many times is it today?" ”

Lin Sheng replied, "Oh, I forgot, many times. ”

Duqi shook his head: "The gastrointestinal complications are serious again. ”

Zhuo Cheng listened to their words, as if he had something else.

There were footsteps outside, and Zhang Fan, who was guarding the entrance instead of Lin Sheng, said, "Tu Sheng is back." ”

The person who came in looked a little similar to Lin Sheng, but the neck and hands exposed outside the clothes had a lot of skin nodules, which looked a little scary.

"I'm guarding." Tusheng is obviously a man of few words.

Duqi looked at him over: "You pay attention to collecting resources, Irene's caravan is coming to Sweetwater Town soon, you have to change the medicine!" ”

Zhuo Cheng's heart moved, and Sweetwater Town can also change the medicine?

Lin Sheng interjected: "Ha, the last time Sister Erin came, she told you to change the dressing, but you just didn't listen." Hey, you pull so many times a day, and the smell is all over your body, how can I sleep in the same room with you? ”

Tu Sheng was silent, Zhang Fan and Du Qi ignored him, and Lin Sheng stopped talking.

Zhang Fan came back with his bag and sat next to Zhuo Cheng: "Are you hungry?" ”

Zhuo Cheng took out the remaining two dinner cans from the toolkit and gave one to Zhang Fan: "The taste is average, but the tube is full." ”

Zhang Fan didn't answer, and opened a leather bag, revealing the air-dried food inside.

Zhuo Cheng recognizes, dried sweet potato!

"Try me!" Zhang Fan grabbed a handful and stuffed it to Zhuo Cheng.

"Too much, too much." This is a good person, Zhuo Cheng hurriedly excused himself: "You are active outside, it consumes a lot, keep it." ”

Zhang Fan laughed and pointed to the sarcoma under his neck: "Xiaobai and Xiaohong will grow up, and soon I will fight fifty of them, and then there will be food rations in the town!" ”

Zhuo Cheng insisted on giving the canister to Zhang Fan, and along the way, he had already asked clearly, there was no Zhang Fan guarding him, and he launched a cloud-piercing arrow to call Du Qi, maybe he had already entered the stomach of some scavengers.

Zhang Fan accepted one, and returned the other to Zhuo Cheng: "You are more short of food than me." He picked up the dried sweet potato and signaled, "Eat!" ”

Zhuo Cheng nodded, he ate too many tasteless cans, and as soon as the dried sweet potato entered his mouth at this moment, the unspeakable delicacy was fried all over his mouth, and it was ten times better than the most delicious food he had ever tasted.

To exaggerate, he was almost moved by the smell of the dried sweet potato to the point that his eyes turned red.

After eating five in one go, Zhuo Cheng put away the rest and put it in his kit.

Zhang Fan said: "Also, you eat more." ”

Zhuo Cheng thought for a while and said, "I'm used to eating liquid food, and I'm afraid that my stomach will be uncomfortable if I eat too much." He changed the subject, and his eyes gestured to Du Qi's side: "What did the mayor say just now, why can't I understand?" ”

"You're asking the right question!" Zhang Fan felt that the knowledge taught by the teacher and the mayor of the town, he only remembered that it was useful, and said in a low voice: "You know that this heaven and earth are full of strange radiation energy, which can twist tumors in people or other creatures, right?" ”

Zhuo Cheng drank saliva and said honestly: "I have heard people talk about it in the singularity camp, and I have also seen the power of transcendence with my own eyes. ”

What Zhang Fan remembers is actually the common sense of medium-sized and large-scale settlements: "When a distorted tumor first appears, it is generally benign, but it will deteriorate for more than a year if it is slow, and it will deteriorate into an advanced stage if it is fast, and even if it is powerful and weird, the extraordinary twister has to accept his fate." If it can be controlled in a benign way, the impact on people is not particularly large, but there are complications, such as white skin, native nodules and stool, all of them. ”

He touched his throat: "Xiaobai and Xiaohong grew up late, and mine hasn't appeared yet." ”

Zhuo Cheng witnessed it with his own eyes, and when he knew that these twisted tumors were fatal, they were more terrible than the cancer in the 2020s, and asked: "I heard people at the singularity say that taking medicine can be treated?" ”

Zhang Fan waved his hand: "If it can't be cured, it can only inhibit the deterioration, and if you eat too much of the same medicine, you have to change the medicine." Also, whether it is the same drug or not, it has side effects after taking it for many years, and it is also fatal. ”

Zhuo Cheng subconsciously glanced at his arm: "This world is too unfriendly. ”

Can't find a cure? Do you have to fight tumors for the rest of your life?

The world is so big, I don't know if there is any other way.

"I remember the teacher saying that." Zhang Fan scratched his head and thought for a while before he remembered: "In the first era, the world was not like this. ”

Zhuo Cheng asked, "What was it like then?" ”

Zhang Fan smiled embarrassedly: "I don't know either." Anyway, by the end of the First Age, the world had become this tattered, as if many people had died and cities had become ruins. ”

He suddenly remembered: "The teacher said that human beings have forgotten a lot of knowledge, and civilization is almost completely destroyed. ”

Zhuo Cheng was puzzled: "How can this be?" ”

Zhang Fan was also puzzled: "Each family has its own saying, wars, plagues, natural disasters, demons, all of them. The most talked about is that God has cursed the world. ”

Is there really a god? Zhuo Cheng thought of the flying goats that the gang was kneeling down to, and couldn't help but look up at the sky, which was getting dark.

"Is there a tumor in your body that is twisted out of your body and has extraordinary strength?" Zhang Fan thought of the dead mechanic and the swamp treeman.

Zhuo Cheng hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth, he knew too little: "I have a lump in my upper arm muscles, and I have recently ...... It seems to have gotten a lot stronger, I'm not sure if it's or not. ”

"Hey, that's easy!" Lin Sheng, who was full of food and drink, saw Zhang Fan and Zhuo Cheng hiding in the corner muttering, and came over: "You scavengers don't have any common sense!" I'll teach you an inner vision, just try it! ”

Without waiting for Zhuo Cheng to speak, he sat down: "Hmm...... You close your eyes and concentrate on feeling the tumor, feeling the golden luminess that distort the tumor. If you can't feel it, it's an ordinary tumor with no special abilities. Most people with tumors are ordinary patients, and only a few of them really have extraordinary twisting abilities. Well...... Twisted tumor cells, which bring extraordinary power, are golden in the human psyche. ”

"Yes, if yes, just twist the tumor against your body and imagine it as the most intuitive way you think it is."

This method sounds very simple, but Lin Sheng, who has talked to Zhuo Cheng a lot, is not confident and looks at Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan said: "Common sense in Sweetwater Town, it's quite simple, you try." ”

"Good!"

Zhuo Cheng closed his eyes, concentrated, and felt the lump in his upper arm, he originally thought it was difficult, but he didn't expect that between a few breaths, there was a golden light in front of him, and the distortion point of the radiation energy on the body appeared directly: it was expansive, and the golden spherical flesh that slowly expanded like a balloon was fast.

"Hey, the most intuitive way to imagine!" Lin Sheng is reminding.

Zhuo Cheng's mind moved, imagining the simple human anatomy diagram when he was in school, his eyes immediately zoomed out, and the anatomy diagram gradually appeared, and the strange automatic composition was composed of five parts, corresponding to the brain, major internal organs, bones, main blood vessels, and skin muscles.

At the position of the biceps brachii in each arm, there is a golden point of light, which extends radial thin lines towards the surrounding muscles, spreading down just past the elbow and up to the shoulder, staining a large piece of skin on the upper arm outward.

According to Lin Sheng, gold represents distorted tumor cells in mental feelings, which is the tumor cells spreading?

Sure enough, it's simple and straightforward, clear and clear.

Zhuo Cheng confirmed what was going on with his recent increasing strength.

When he opened his eyes, Lin Sheng preemptively asked, "Hey! What do you think? ”

Zhuo Cheng roughly described it.

Zhang Fan said: "You should be the skin muscle twisting type, in the future, you will be very resistant to beating, run fast, and have great strength!" Well...... In general, the larger the area of distortion tumor cell spread, the greater the ability. ”

"Nothing else?" Zhuo Cheng said with some anticipation.

Lin Sheng added: "Ahem! You don't even know the most basic common sense! This is the usual situation of skin and muscles, the teacher said, distort the tumor to store radiation energy, distort reality with energy, where is the limit of extraordinary distortion, no one knows, many abilities need to be developed by themselves, continuous experiments and exercises, everyone's situation is different. ”

Zhuo Cheng nodded, full of curiosity, and wanted to ask, Du Qi's voice sounded: "Quiet, rest now, Lin Sheng and Zhang Fan will keep the first half of the night, and Tusheng and I will keep the second half of the night!" ”

The camp immediately fell silent, Zhuo Cheng did not ask for a vigil, and the trust was far from enough.

Lin Sheng and Zhang Fan went to different positions, one bright and one dark.

Seeing Doocchi take off his wide-brimmed cowboy hat and put it on his face, Zhuo Cheng took out the rag from his toolkit and wrapped it tightly around his body, the autumn night was very cool.

Closing his eyes, he used the inner vision method again, and the simple picture of the human body was presented, fast as instinct.

Zhuo Cheng felt the golden dots of light and radial thin lines on his arms, and finally had a little capital for self-preservation, but thinking of the tragic situation of the disintegration of the flesh and blood of his body after the tumor deteriorated, he couldn't help but scold the fucking world again.

It gives people hope, gives them strength, and makes them get closer to death.

Zhuo Cheng was about to end the inner vision method, and at the bottom of the stomach in the human body diagram, a point of light suddenly lit up, and soon turned into the shape of a sunflower seed!
