Chapter 165: Lack of Water and Rain, Lack of Warmth and Sun
Just when the wind and rain in LN City gradually stopped, it was still a little far away from the village.
A gust of wind swept down from the dark clouds that were about to disperse, and at the same time blew away the last of the clouds.
It was already afternoon, and the sky was like a wash, clear and cloudless again,
The gust of wind also fell on a mountain forest, revealing the appearance of Yinhu investigator again.
A group of senior investigators from the Bureau of Abnormal Investigation sat down and decided to 'cure' the world, lack water and wind, and use the ability of investigators to change the celestial phenomena when it is hot and cold.
Among them, at least elite investigators can influence an area with their ability, and senior investigators can influence the celestial phenomena of a city and a city to a certain extent.
In this way, Yinhu has mastered some authority, and only then can he use his authority to re-impress a broader scope.
Among them, Yinhu holds the authority of 'Storm and Sea', but it is the most suitable for the current situation.
In the drought, the flood, he can correct the deviation, and I am afraid that he will have to be busy in the future.
That is to say, he has mastered a lot of the authority of the 'sea god', and the exercise of authority is like instinct, far less tiring than the ability to directly use the 'storm and the sea'.
Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to come a few times with such a wide range of rainfall.
However, the authority to drive the storm on such a large scale is also like creating an environment under the influence of 'storm and ocean'.
It's hard not to attract the eye of Storms and Seas.
It's just drinking to quench your thirst.
Yin Hu, who fell into the mountain forest, turned his gaze and looked at the mountain forest again.
In the mountains and forests, the branches and leaves of the trees are dripping with rainwater, falling on the wet understory land.
From time to time, you can also see a few animals, carefully coming out to forage after the rain.
Looking at the animals, Yinhu paused, then turned into a gust of wind and disappeared directly in place.
"Tweet ......"
In the mountains and forests, the birds still fall on high places, their sharp beaks combing their feathers,
The shorter movement passed through a bush, and the hair on his body became wetter and stopped.
……
“…… It's strange now, it's not over winter, and it's raining so hard that it's all day, and I see, I'm afraid it won't stop until night. ”
A mountain village, although it is in a mountain col, there is also a cement road directly connected to the outer road.
On the edge of the village road, by the door of a family's hall, an old man moved a low stool and sat on it, leaning on a hoe next to the wall.
In the morning, he was ready to go to the field to hoe weeds, but now it is afternoon, and he has not been able to go out until evening.
Looking at the rain and fog outside the house, the sky was as dark as if it had already fallen into the night,
The rain that does not stop for a moment is like a splash falling near and far, and the fields and mountains and forests in the distance.
The old man said,
"The water in this courtyard is dripping, and the water in the river is getting higher and higher...... Old woman, you say, this can't be a big flood, right? ”
"Send you a big water, and talk bad things all day long...... You don't care if the rain doesn't stop at night, it's none of your business if it doesn't stop, you can still be drenched in the house. ”
The hall went a little further, and the old woman first took a needle to mend a piece of trousers that had been taken off, then raised her head and said,
Then when she saw that it was really dark, and her eyes were dizzy and she could not see clearly, she put away her needle and thread, and got up and turned on the lamp of the hall.
The white paper light dispelled the darkness and illuminated the whole room, but it was stopped by the torrential rain outside.
"I'm not afraid that the rain will be heavy, and the water will come out of the river, but also that there will be rocks rolling down from the side of the mountain in the opposite side of our house."
The old man also stood up,
"I'm afraid I'm going to drown you, if anything happens, the village will already notify you to leave. The country doesn't care about you, someone is worried, put your heart in your stomach. ”
"Now the technology is good, and the day before I heard that there are new drugs now, and any disease can be cured...... What's the matter, the country can't help it, don't your idle ...... Hurry up and close the door for me, and the rain will come into the house. Hurry up and help me light the fire. ”
The old lady answered, and went into the kitchen.
The old man got up and closed the door,
"That's right...... What kind of fire is this, such a wet day, with gas. ”
"There's so much firewood in the house, so there's no need to put it there for what......"
As the old man spoke, he followed.
It was raining outside the house, and the old couple were busy with dinner in the kitchen.
Waiting for the fire in the stove to go out from gas to extinguishment,
The old couple walked to the dining table of the hall with the porridge and fried side dishes that had been boiled at night.
I heard the rain on the roof tiles of the kitchen gradually stopping.
Only the unclean rainwater on the roof and eaves of the house was left dripping down the eaves into the potholes on the edge of the courtyard that had been beaten by the long-term rain.
"Isn't the rain going to stop...... I said that you are not worried about the day. ”
"It's really stopped...... It's also weird on this day...... It was raining heavily in the winter, and it stopped again in the evening after a day......"
As the old man spoke, he went to reopen the door of the hall,
The rain outside the house stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sun, which had already set in the west, regained a little afterglow.
The golden afterglow was reflected in some of the stagnant water in the courtyard.
"Maybe it's the Dragon King Bodhisattva who sees that you lack water on the ground and gives you some rain, and when the rain is enough, it stops."
The old lady answered.
"That's a good ......"
The old man nodded, and moved back to the table, where the two went on to eat dinner.
……
“…… Wear thicker, don't go out for a while and shiver from the cold. ”
"Mom, I'm not cold, I don't want to wear this, it's uncomfortable to wear......"
"Be obedient and put this jacket on...... I don't know what's going on this winter, it's so cold...... Originally, we didn't turn on the air conditioner for the winter here, but last night it was good, covered with a quilt to wake me up, and got up to find the remote control of the air conditioner. ”
In a house, a family of three, two adults with a six or seven-year-old child, packed up and prepared to go out.
The woman beckoned the child to put on a padded jacket again, and the child felt uncomfortable wearing too thick clothes, and writhed there.
After the woman said another word to the child, she turned her head and spoke to her husband again.
"It's a little cold, but the sun is out today, so it should be fine outside......"
"What's the matter, wasn't it the sun yesterday, but the wind blew so cold that people shivered, and the sun shone on the body, as if there was no temperature...... Be obedient, put on your clothes, and don't let me take you to my grandmother's. ”
"Okay."
The woman replied to her husband in the first half of the sentence, and greeted the child in the second half of the sentence.
After waiting for the child to get dressed, the family of three went out.
As soon as they arrived under the sun, the two adults paused one after another and looked at the sun.
After walking along the road again, not long after the child began to cry out for heat.
"Mom, I'm hot, I don't want to wear this coat anymore......"
"Okay, take it off, I'll hold it for you...... The weather is getting really fast, it was cold yesterday, and it's warm today. ”
“…… Today, the sun is shining brightly, and it feels like it's much warmer. Maybe it's the sun that's hot today. ”
"Don't be poor there, you can take the child's coat."
"Why am I taking it?"
"Your son, you don't take anyone."
“……”
……
In the early morning, on the banks of the Wang'an River, the water vapor is pleasant.
Last night, Wang'an City, where the Wang'an River was a little dry, also had an early spring rain.
Jing Chen didn't leave all night, and the rain seemed to ignore Jing Chen's existence, and no rain fell on him.
Still sitting on the wet river, behind a stall covered with cloth, Jing Chen closed his eyes,
I also feel the entire Wang'an City covered by flesh and blood ability.
Since last night, probably under the notice of the Investigation Bureau, in addition to the arrival of many investigators from the Investigation Bureau in Wang'an City,
There are also a lot of supernumerary abilities who are affected by special plagues.
It is impossible for supernumerary abilities who have been affected by a special plague to be sent in the fastest way like the investigators of the Bureau of Anomalies.
Many, or most, of the affected abilities were limited by the progress of the special plague, and the distance from Wang'an City died outside the range of Wang'an City, and they never appeared within Jing Chen's perception range from beginning to end.
However, the Bureau of Anomalies gave these supernumerary abilities the opportunity to take a potion once, giving them hope of reaching Wang'an City.
Every person who dies has the ability to die has a little hope before he dies.
Therefore, according to the information reported by the Bureau of Abnormal Investigation, there was basically no more crazy thing about the supernumerary ability before death.
And within the scope of Wang'an City, Jing Chen basically treats everyone equally, and the flesh and blood ability that covers Wang'an City is directly entangled with some of these people.
Use flesh and blood abilities to combat the effects of the plague on these people, and reshape the corrupted bodies and internal organs until the Bureau of Anomalies sends investigators to directly erase the relevant knowledge of these people with special items.
In the second half of the night, the group of investigators sent by the Investigation Bureau, the last group of investigators began to perform their original duties as investigators after knocking out relevant cognition.
The situation in various regions has gradually stabilized.
And within the scope of Wang'an City, Jing Chen probably knew that the Abnormal Investigation Bureau had recruited a lot of original supernumerary abilities this time.
Although the number of people is not particularly large, there are still many people with supernumerary ability who have reached the stage of elite investigators.
In particular, the ...... who survived the effects of this particular plague
This can be regarded as his lucky identity, using Wang'an City as a battlefield, and fighting against the 'bad luck' and 'filth and plague'?
It can't be said that he won, it can only be said that he helped the Anomaly Bureau avoid the effects of a plague and bad luck.
Jing Chen's mind was very calm, thinking about this a lot of things.
I opened my eyes again,
In fact, he didn't need to deliberately close his eyes to feel Wang'an City covered by flesh and blood ability.
He didn't rest either, just a little habitual reaction.
Turning his head, Jing Chen looked at the old man Hong next to him, that is, the agent of fate.
He didn't leave last night, and Old Man Hong seemed to be tireless, always receiving believers in fate,
"Sasa...... Da Da ......"
"It's alright...... Fate has made the best arrangement, there is no need to be uncomfortable, there is no need to be sad, everything is natural, there will be results, and there will be ends. ”
Old Man Hong's voice was mixed with the sparse sound of the wind blowing the branches and leaves, and the sound of rain falling from the leaves and branches.
Old man Hong was comforting a half-grown girl, the girl may have suffered some grievances, and her eyes were red.
Old man Hong smiled, touched the hair of the half-sized girl, and smiled and comforted.
Then it was probably the girl's parents who came in a hurry, and the parents thanked Old Man Hong, and then took the girl who was not so aggrieved away.
Jing Chen glanced at it, then turned his gaze back to look at the riverside road that passed in front of the stall.
The road seems to be much more crowded than the previous two days, with people coming and going, and the road after the rain is either fast or slow, tight or slow.
It may be that the patients who had been gathered in the hospital because of various serious illnesses were dispersed from the hospitals again under the influence of the "new medicine".
If you should go to work, go to work as usual, and read as usual when you should study.
It may also be the psychological effect of Jing Chen.
It may be that other supernumerary abilities have probably learned some information from those who have been affected by the plague before.
It may be that he feels that the Abnormal Investigation Bureau has a strong force in Wang'an City, in order to seek refuge.
Fortunately last night, since dawn this morning, some other capable people have arrived, and even moved with their families.
However, this part of the people has no effect compared to the entire Wang'an City.
“…… Guru? ”
At this time, a man who walked on the road, obviously idle, just lowered his head and thought about something,
noticed the stall on Jing Chen's side.
After thinking about it in place, he walked towards Jing Chen's side.
Standing in front of Jing Chen's stall, the man shouted with some uncertainty,
Jing Chen glanced at it, and could obviously feel that this man should have taken potions, probably for supernumerary abilities,
In comparison to the investigators of the Bureau of Anomalous Investigation, they may have taken potions once or twice.
Jing Chen didn't care, handed over a stool,
"Sit down."
"Thank you......"
The man looked at the low stool that was still wet, and he didn't care, smiled, thanked him, and took the stool and sat down.
But after sitting down, the smile faded, and the sorrow between the eyebrows resurfaced.
"Master, I am a little uneasy and hesitant, and I am worried about many things."
The man didn't seem to be trying to tell fortunes, he was just trying to talk to someone.
"Originally, my family lived a little far away from here. But we're a small place, far less secure than here. ”
"Originally, it was difficult to leave the homeland, but the day before I had a friend who had an accident, before he died, he persuaded me to move out of that place, I asked him where to move, and he told Wang'an City."
"Last night, we tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep, and when it was almost dawn, we decided to move and move here."
"What do you want to ask?"
Jing Chen listened quietly to what he said, and then asked.
Probably didn't expect Jing Chen to be so direct, the man paused,
"Master...... I would like to ask, can I live a more stable and peaceful life here? Don't be so scared...... Sometimes it feels like the more you know, the more scared you get...... You are like people walking around the street, most of them live at ease, and I am always afraid of some sudden changes, and I always feel that there are many crises hidden under the calm that cannot be solved. And maybe ...... More than I knew, they were more nervous. ”
When the man asked, he was ready to wait for the young-looking 'master' to say something reassuring, or a word of blessing.
"I don't know."
Jing Chen shook his head and replied simply.
“…… Sir, you're really interesting. ”
The man was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile,
Then he smiled and laughed, but he couldn't stop laughing, and the smile on his face faded, and there was some silence.
"Master, then you see how long I can live?"
There was silence for a while, probably due to inner uneasiness, and the man asked such a question.
"More than two months."
“……”
The man had expected the answer given by the master, but no matter how he thought about it, it shouldn't be such a short time.
He was stunned, he didn't even bother to question it, and he didn't question it subconsciously,
But I couldn't help but ask,
"Why?"
"You're more than two months later, he's more than two months later, he's too, she's ......"
Jing Chen casually pointed to a few people on the side of the road.
It was about three months before, but the time has been going on, and now there are only more than two months left.
The Bureau of Anomalies has been dealing with crises time and time again, but it has not slowed down the arrival of death and end.
"...... after more than two months"
The man opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he just repeated the words of the whole scene,
Jing Chen's words seemed to pierce his worries and uneasiness, making his face a little ugly.
"Master, are you laughing...... This is the hexagram money paid to you, I don't know if it's enough...... I still have something to do, so I'll go first. ”
I don't know if I believe it or not, the man barely showed a little smile on his face,
Somewhat flustered, he put down the money and left.
After watching this man go,
The one next to him came just now, but an acquaintance who waited under the tree next to him for a while,
stepped forward again, and arrived at Jing Chen's booth,
"Sir."
It was Lao Chen who walked over.
