Chapter 414: Black Whale Trail

The Void World where the Heavenly Demon Realm is located.

This is a very special void, almost cut off from the Heavenly Demon Realm and other worlds.

However, because of the Scourge Box, many worlds and natural disasters have infiltrated this void, and even the escaped black whales have fallen here.

somewhere.

This night, Xu Jingnian slept for a day and a night, and his mental and physical exhaustion was swept away.

Crawling out of the cave of this temporary residence, Xu Jingnian took a look at the cave where he had been here for a while, and sighed, I am afraid that he will not come back in this life.

The horror of the strange region is vivid, Xu Jingnian's mechanical heart has evolved completely, and if there are no accidents, there will be no problem in living for a few decades.

Under this condition, Xu Jingnian no longer wants to return to the strange region to take risks.

After tidying up a little, Xu Jingnian planned to return to the city, and the mechanical heart had obtained the fusion of strange substances, so he was not worried about the strangeness, and he could already go to the city to find a job.

Going to the city to live a stable life is not Xu Jinnian's wish, but the wish of his brother, who depends on each other.

Xu Jingnian is an orphan, and his brother is also an orphan.

The two have been dependent on each other since childhood, and his brother is four or five years older than him.

It's a pity that many years ago, his brother was unlucky and didn't come back after going to the weird region to evolve the heart.

Since then, Xu Jingnian has become silent, standing outside the camp every day, waiting for his brother's return.

Shaking his head, Xu Jingnian forced himself not to think about it anymore, he hid the hole, and then walked along the path for a distance, coming to a smaller and more hidden cave.

This kind of cave, there are many places here, but no one else knows what is inside, and no one dares to rashly enter the unclear cave, because someone once hid a strange substance in a certain cave, and after a few people broke in, it instantly became weird.

Most of the people living here are ordinary people whose mechanical hearts have not evolved.

"Yaya, I'm leaving."

Xu was shocked and whispered to the people in the cave.

The hole in the ground was opened, and a small head emerged from the hole, looking at Xu Jingnian in surprise.

"Brother, did you succeed?"

The girl's face was dirty, dirty, and her hair was messy, but her eyes were bright, like stars in the sky, and one glance made people sink into them unconsciously.

"Hmm."

Xu Jingnian touched her head and nodded.

This little girl's name is Yaya, Xu Jingnian picked it up, after his brother didn't come back, Xu Jingnian went to the gate of the camp every day to wait, and one day found Yaya in a coma.

At that time, Yaya was only about four or five years old, and seeing her breath dying, Xu Jingnian was a little unbearable, and after hesitating again and again, he still brought Yaya back.

Xu Jingnian's life was already a little difficult, and after bringing Yaya back, his life became even worse.

However, he helped the machine factory move machinery in the camp, barely making ends meet.

A mechanical factory is a factory that manufactures all kinds of mechanical appliances, and most of the mechanical hearts needed by human beings come from it.

This hole is another hole hidden by Xu Jingnian, which is more hidden than the previous one, and some small traps are also arranged around, and some passages to the outside are also dug inside, every time he goes out, he will hide Yaya inside, even if there is an accident, Yaya can escape.

"You're eight years old this year, and in two years, it's almost time to fuse the mechanical heart, I'll go into the city and find a suitable job, and then buy you a good mechanical heart, and then buy you a weird substance fusion, and then you can live in the city with me."

Xu Jingnian rubbed her head and said.

Strange substances are sold in the city, Xu Jingnian knows this, but he doesn't know the price, the people in the city, he has never seen the strange region in the past to absorb strange substances, inquire, he knows that the strange substances are sold in the city.

It's a pity that Xu Jingnian, who has not integrated into the strange substance, does not have the qualifications to enter the city, nor does he have the qualifications to buy the strange substance.

"But will it be expensive?"

Yaya raised her little head and looked at Xu Jingnian suspiciously, the stars in her eyes seemed to be able to be scattered at this moment.

"No, it won't."

Xu Jingnian hesitated for a moment and spoke.

"Let's go, I'll take you to Grandpa Liu, after I leave, you can stay with him first, and then take you over after I earn enough money."

"I've already talked to Grandpa Liu before."

Grandpa Liu in Xu Jingnian's mouth is an old guard in the machinery factory, and he has helped Xu Jingnian a lot over the years.

Xu Jingnian pulled the girl out of the hole in the ground, and then reached out and touched the top of her head casually a few times, pulling down the messy hair, covering the star-like eyes.

If these eyes are seen, they are likely to cause unnecessary trouble.

"Hmm."

Although Yaya was a little reluctant, she nodded obediently and took the initiative to take Xu Jingnian's hand.

Xu Jingnian smiled, pulled the girl who was half his body shorter, and walked in the direction of the machinery factory.

"Xiao Xu is back?"

"Yes, Xiao Xu has a bright future in the future."

"Come to my house for a bite to eat sometime some."

……

Along the way, many people saw Xu Jingnian and took the initiative to say hello, which was impossible before.

Xu Jingnian's success made the people around him full of enthusiasm, because they knew that if there was no accident, I was afraid that Xu Jingnian would enter the city, and then everyone would not be in the same world.

Xu Jingnian responded to them with a smile, neither agreeing nor refusing, most of the people here, the mechanical heart has actually reached the level where it can fuse strange substances, but it is not willing to fight until the last moment.

It's like Xu Jingnian, and he doesn't want to fight hard until the last moment!

Fear of death, this is the instinct of human beings!

Each person's fused mechanical heart is different, the individual physique is different, and the world in which the mechanical heart is fused with strange substances is also different, some people have to integrate strange substances to evolve as soon as they are integrated into the mechanical heart, and some people may not need to evolve the mechanical heart in their lifetime.

As for why this is so, no one knows.

Xu Jingnian pulled Xu Yaya for dozens of minutes, and finally came to the front of the machinery factory, looking from a distance, the machinery factory was like a steel giant located on the plain, and there were constantly flying cars in the air pulling materials in and out.

Xu Jingnian took Yaya into the machinery factory, and came to a white courtyard with a familiar car, which is Grandpa Liu's residence, which is better than the holes outside.

There are no workers in the outskirts of the machinery factory, and there are a group of guards living there, and Grandpa Liu's age is considered the largest among the guards.

Xu Jingnian happened to hear that he had a relationship with the people behind the machinery factory, so he was able to stay in this good position for so many years without changing.

The maid kept her head down all the way to prevent others from discovering her eyes, and when she found no one here, she raised her head, peeled off her bangs, and carefully looked at this future residence.

Xu Jingnian rubbed her head dotingly, if there is no need, he is unwilling to part with Yaya, for so many years, the two have depended on each other and cannot be separated at all, but Xu Jingnian understands that if he wants to change Yaya's mechanical heart, he can only go to the city to make money, otherwise everything will be in vain.

He doesn't want Yaya to be like his brother!

"That kid made it?"

Before Xu Jingnian's hand began to knock on the door, a voice came from inside.

Hearing some familiar voices, Xu Jingnian retracted the hand that wanted to knock on the door, and at the same time glanced at Yaya, and his eyes gestured to her.

"Don't make a sound!"

The two have lived together for so many years, what Xu Jingnian's eyes mean, Yaya instantly understood.

"The kid surnamed Xu has succeeded, and now there is some trouble, and his sister may not be able to move." Liu Zhi's voice came out of the courtyard.

"Didn't you say you told him that way? How could he have come back alive? The young voice was angry.

"If you want to successfully integrate into the strange substance, in addition to good luck, there is another way, which is to fill your body with a strange aura, so as to attract the arrival of the strange substance."

Xu Jingnian's mind flashed this sentence again, his fist clenched unconsciously, and his nails were deeply embedded in his palm.

"How do I know, maybe the kid noticed it and didn't do what I said." Liu Zhi's voice was full of doubts.

"But it doesn't matter, he told me before that if he comes back alive, he will entrust his sister to me, and he himself will go into the city to find a job for his sister to change her mechanical heart."

"This is our chance!"

"That kid is so stupid, he didn't know that his sister was a baby, and he actually risked his life to sell his sister casually, how many weird substances could he buy, but if I hadn't happened to see his sister's eyes, I wouldn't have found those treasures!" The young man's voice was full of greed.

The originally kind and familiar voice was heard by Xu Jingnian at this moment, which made him feel cold and piercing, as if he had fallen into a cold hell.

Xu Jingnian didn't think about why he was able to hear their conversation from such a distance, he silently took Xu Yaya's hand and turned to leave.

This world is far from being as glamorous as it seems.

The two people who talked in the courtyard were Liu Zhi, who took good care of him in his daily life, and Li Tian, a worker who helped him a lot in the machinery factory.

Xu Jingnian didn't expect that their purpose was actually his sister.

What Xu Jingnian didn't expect was that the sentence that Liu Zhi told him at the beginning was actually false, and he actually believed it stupidly.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Xu Yaya is very sensible, she is familiar with Xu Jingnian, she knows that Xu Jingnian is in a bad mood now, so she didn't ask anything along the way, and it wasn't until she returned to the cave that the two of them were familiar with that she asked softly.

"It's okay, it's just that my brother can't bear you, so he decided not to let you go to Grandpa Liu's house." Xu Jingnian rubbed Xu Yaya's head.

"Really?"

Xu Yaya raised her head in surprise, and looked at Xu Jingnian with big eyes flashing.

"Really."

Xu Jingnian nodded heavily, his eyes flickering as well.

Hearing Xu Jingnian's words, Xu Yaya jumped up excitedly, ran around in the hole, and lay on the weeds when she was tired of running.

"Brother, we won't be separated for the rest of our lives, okay?"

Xu Yaya said to Xu Jingnian.

"Okay."

Xu Jingnian did not hesitate.

Xu Yaya was tired of running and fell asleep on the weeds.

Xu Jingnian sighed, crawled out of the hole, sat next to the hole, and fell into deep thought.

This one, sitting until the sun goes down and the night falls.

"Brother, I'm hungry."

Xu Yaya's immature voice came out of the hole.

"Here we are."

Xu Jingnian was just about to jump into the hole, but at this moment, his brows furrowed.

There were several sneaky figures slowly approaching the cave in his perception.

During this time, Xu Jingnian carefully experienced the changes in his body.

His physical body was not much stronger than that of ordinary people, but his spiritual power seemed to have increased a lot, just like before he could hear the conversation between Liu Zhi and Li Tian across the courtyard, and now he was able to sense the presence of others in the dark.

These people wore the clothes of the machine factory and did not hide their identities in the slightest.

What made Xu Jingnian's heart tremble was that in their hands, they were carrying arm-length machetes.

Xu Jingnian's thoughts flew around, and he instantly understood what was going on, during the day, he took Yaya to the machinery factory, but in the end he didn't see Liu Zhi and came back, obviously Liu Zhi had learned all this through monitoring, and he also understood that his calculations had been discovered.

The other party wants to make a move!

After thinking about all this, Xu Jingnian's expression turned cold, he jumped out of the cave without saying a word, and then blocked the entrance to the cave.

"Yaya, let's go."

Xu Jingnian opened the hole hidden behind the hole in the ground and said to Yaya.

Seeing this scene, Yaya didn't feel strange, and instantly knew what Xu Jingnian meant, over the years, this scene has happened I don't know how many times.

She understood that something that endangered Xu Jingnian and her life had occurred.

Yaya quickly drilled into the hole, Xu Jingnian's eyes flashed with a cold light, and a few pitch-black things were turned out from under the weeds, and then pasted them at the entrance sealed by him, and then introduced a few traces of strange energy from his mechanical heart into it.

In this process, he did it carefully, for fear that one of them would accidentally detonate these things.

By the time he was done, he was already sweating profusely, and the group was approaching the entrance to the cave.

"Blow up you dogs." Xu Jingnian cursed fiercely, and then quickly drilled into the passage.

These bomb-like things were secretly collected when he was working in the machine factory, and he didn't actually have a spectrum to know whether they were useful or not, because they needed strange energy to activate.

Not only it, but all the mechanical products in this world need strange energy to be able to use it.

A few minutes later, Xu Jingnian caught up with Yaya, who was crawling forward in the passage.

This passage is not just one, for the safety of himself and Yaya, Xu Jingnian dug many lanes, just to prevent this situation from coming.

Most of the passages lead to the rest of the camp, with only a few or two leading to the outside of the camp.

"Yaya, go to the camp for the past years."

Xu Jingnian knew that he could not stay in the camp this time, whether it was Liu Zhi or Li Tian, the forces behind him were not comparable to him, and only by escaping from the camp could he have a glimmer of life.

Yaya didn't ask anything, silently changed direction, and crawled out of another passage.

"Bang!"

At this moment, several violent explosions sounded from behind him, and several screams were faintly heard.

Under the sound of this explosion, many stones and dust fell around the passage, and there were faint signs of collapse.

Xu Jingnian's face changed, he didn't expect those explosives to be so powerful, let alone really detonated, he had already strengthened it when he dug the passage, but he didn't expect it to be a little unstable.

"Yaya, hurry up." Xu Jingnian said anxiously.

The girl in front of her struggled to speed up her pace, Xu Jingnian hurriedly followed, although the passage was reinforced by him when he was digging, but in case, if it collapsed, he and Xu Yaya would be buried inside.

Fortunately, the passage was quite strong, and by the time Xu Jingnian and Xu Yaya climbed out of the passage, the entire passage did not collapse.

"Brother, is our home gone?" Xu Yaya looked at the burning hole in the distance, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her mind.

"It's okay, as long as the two of us are here, it's home wherever we go." Xu Jingnian hugged Xu Yaya into his arms and comforted her softly.

"Hmm." Xu Yaya buried her head in Xu Jingnian's arms.

Xu Jingnian felt Xu Yaya's trembling body, and his heart was cold.

"It's all about killing them all like this, then it's no wonder I'm going to do it."

The exit of the passage is at a river, but Xu Jingnian and Xu Yaya did not stay here for too long, and with the power of the machinery factory, I am afraid that this place will be discovered soon.

This place is not to stay for long!

took Xu Yaya into the jungle, and only with the help of the jungle can he avoid the tracking of the machinery factory.

Although there are dangers in the jungle, there are not so many things to care about at the moment.

If you stay here for a longer time, you will have more crises, but if you go into the jungle, you will have a chance of life.

The two of them groped in the dark jungle, and Xu Jingjing had been here many times, and it was familiar, so they avoided many hidden dangers.

This jungle is very large, and there are naturally weirdness hidden in it, but most of those weirdness are in the depths of the jungle, as long as Xu Jingnian doesn't go too deep with Xu Yaya, there is no need to worry about this.

The three caves of the cunning rabbit, Xu Jingnian naturally understands this truth, so this is a back road he left for himself.

In the gray tree hole, Xu Jingnian put Xu Yaya on the ground paved with dry grass, after such a long time of running, this girl couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep directly.

This tree hole is a safe house selected by Xu Jingnian, the security is naturally not a problem, and the concealment is also very strong, if it is not a comprehensive search, it is difficult for outsiders to find here.

Walking out of the tree hole, Xiao Ye sat next to the tree hole and fell into deep thought.

It was already late at night, and the moonlight was shining on the earth, and unlike the strange region, the moon here was not purple.

The full moon hangs in the sky!

This kind of full moon scene is rare!

From the moment he escaped, Xu Jingnian kept thinking, why would they chase Xu Yaya, even at the expense of laying out for so long, from approaching him to now, it took two or three years, with this time, why not just do it?

It's a pity that until now, Xu Jingnian still didn't think of the reason.

"It seems that you have to find the answer yourself." Xu Jingnian muttered to himself, and his consciousness was invested in the mechanical heart.

The difference between people who absorb strange substances and ordinary people is that the strange substances they absorb can feed back some strange things to the host.

Previously, Xu Jingnian did not communicate with the black whale spirit in the mechanical heart because of the abnormality of the black whale spirit, and even blocked it, originally he wanted to make sure that there was no accident to communicate with it, but now there is no such time.

Although the tree hole is safe, Liu Zhi and Li Feng and others are not fools, the power of the machinery factory is too great, this tree hole will not be hidden for long, rather than waiting passively like this, it is better to take the initiative.

This camp is not as peaceful as imagined, and it is full of all kinds of darkness behind its back, and Xu Jingnian has not been able to survive until now, not by luck.

Consciousness was invested in the mechanical heart, and Xu Jingnian took the initiative to communicate with the spirit of the black whale.

Xu Jingnian was a little apprehensive about this process, this matter was full of unknown risks for him, because he had never heard of anyone who absorbed the strange substance of this kind of existence.

Then his consciousness communicated, and the spirit of the black whale slowly emerged from the mechanical heart, then to his chest, and finally to his body.

The soft light spread out from the black whale, brightening up this small world, the temperature of the light was very soft, Xu Jingnian subconsciously touched it, but he pounced.

This black whale is not a physical existence!

Xu Jingnian withdrew his hand and looked intently at the black whale spirit in front of him.

"There's no sanity left." Although the spirit of the black whale was flexible and changeable, it seemed to be full of intelligence, but Xu Jingnian found from its dull gaze that it actually didn't have any spiritual intelligence anymore.

The light emitted by the spirit of the black whale shone on Xu Jingnian's body, Xu Jingnian was refreshed, and he felt that the fatigue around his body was swept away, and the whole person was as if he had just woken up from sleep, full of energy.

"This light can restore my spiritual power?"

Xu Jingnian thought for a moment and couldn't help muttering.

"I just don't know if there are other effects."

The strange substances that each person has integrated into are different, and the gifts they receive are also different, so Xu Jingnian can't do anything about this black whale spirit, but just looking at this effect is enough for him to be satisfied.

As time passed, the light emitted by the spirit of the black whale slowly faded until it finally dimmed.

Just as Xu Jingnian was about to take back the spirit of the black whale, the spirit of the black whale suddenly jumped up, crossed a graceful arc in the air, and spat at Xu Jingnian's eyes.

After vomiting, its figure dimmed, and it returned directly to Xu Jingnian's heart.

Xu Jingnian was shocked, but it was too late to dodge, and the saliva of the black whale spirit directly melted into his eyes.

A hot pain came from his eyes, Xu Jingnian involuntarily clenched his fists, and in his eyes, something seemed to be waking up.

Not only that, but something seemed to leak out of his eyes, flowing towards his body, and severe pain followed.

This pain exceeded Xu Jingnian's cognition, and his body involuntarily curled up under the drive of this pain, and the whole person almost lost consciousness.

On the surface of the body, dense droplets of blood appeared.

This scene is like a blood exchange.
