Chapter 40 - Dishes are the original sin
When Lingzhimu pulled out his roots and ran with long legs, Zhou Xinyi felt that his cognition was about to be shattered.
"Lingzhimu, this, ran away?"
"Shrink your head!"
Daywen punched over and pressed Zhou Xinyi's head down, and a boulder flew over the heads of the two of them and fell to the ground and shattered into stones.
"Oh no, something really happened now." Dayan's face was pale but the corners of his mouth were grinning, not knowing whether he was frightened or excited.
There is no need to ask for an explanation, even Zhou Xinyi, an outsider, knows that something big is happening.
He hurriedly asked, "What is the attitude of the people of Jizhou City towards Lingzhimu?" ”
"Attitude...... It's probably not an exaggeration to call it a demigod. "Daytime asks without thinking.
"......" Zhou Xinyi's mood was very complicated, "Then what will happen to Ji Zhou City next?" ”
"If Lingzhimu doesn't go crazy, then it's better to say that it's just my night street that is ruined," said Dayan, "but I've heard that Lingzhimu will rain acid when he is awake." ”
The acid rain from the Psychic Wood is different from the normal natural climate, and the acid is the pulp accumulated by the Psychic Wood for many years, and it has the acidity to corrode steel.
Moreover, the Lingzhi Wood has been sleeping for so many years, and the amount of pulp it has accumulated should not be underestimated, and once acid rain falls, it will be like a volcanic eruption that has been brewing for many years, causing a catastrophe.
Zhou Xinyi listened attentively, and actually heard some rain on the ground.
The two looked at each other.
Daywen was a little embarrassed, "This, it depends on how long the acid rain has been falling, if it is only for an hour or two, Ji Zhou City will still be able to stand it." ”
"You don't have a good relationship with Lingzhimu, or ...... You go to persuade? ”
Day asked an eyebrow, "When you're on fire, a cat begs you not to put out the fire, will you listen?" ”
"No, it won't."
"I'm the cat."
“……”
"This disaster is not something we can prevent, and the only thing we can do now is to call all the residents down and evacuate. ”
"Although Night Street is now in danger of collapsing at any time, it is better than being corroded into skeletons by acid rain."
……
……
In the hotel, Brandy and Jiang Yi had already returned to their respective rooms to turn off the lights, only to hear a loud noise, followed by an earthquake on the ground, everyone in the hotel was shocked, and hurriedly got up to find out.
Jiang Yi and Brandy also woke up instantly, they already had the habit of sleeping without changing clothes, in order to cope with emergencies at night.
Therefore, while the rest of them were still dazed by the sudden awakening, they had already put on their coats and walked out of the room.
"What's going on?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Jizhou City is not an earthquake zone, there should be no such movement." Brandy said calmly.
As the inheritor of the black dragon, Jiang Yi's perception is much more sensitive than that of ordinary people, "The movement is coming from the ground, and it is moving towards the ground at an extremely fast speed. ”
Brandy immediately thought, "Night Street? ”
"Is there anything that can cause such a big commotion in the night street?"
At this moment, it is clear to everyone that such a disaster is not brought by the heirs, and all the inheritors in this light curtain do not have the ability to do so.
Brandy also thought for a while with a cold face, the first thing he thought of was the official Mailer, followed by the city lord, but he ruled them out one by one.
None of them have yet departed from the concept of "human".
And the current situation could only be caused by ancient creatures that they absolutely could not contend with.
Brandy could only think of one answer in the end, "Reichi Wood." ”
Jiang Yi didn't know the legend of Lingzhimu, but he had heard of it for a long time.
"Shouldn't that be a log rooted in the ground?"
"Strictly speaking, it's a silicon-based organism that's different from carbon-based organisms, with a metal core and a hardwood outer skin, and very different habits from plants as we know them."
Brandy frowned, he couldn't imagine the severity of the situation now, "To cause such a big movement underground, it can only be that it has woken up." ”
"If it is still hostile to the humans of Jizhou City...... "Brandy said, "then everyone, including the heirs, will probably all be here." ”
Jiang Yi's eyes widened in surprise, "Then, how is Zhou Xinyi now?" ”
"He does things safely and will not risk his life, and this matter has nothing to do with him."
While the two were talking, the proprietress had already hurried upstairs and heard the tail of the conversation between the two.
"How could the Psi be hostile to us?" Although she was anxious, the proprietress firmly believed in her view from childhood to adulthood, "It is a sacred tree, a companion given to us by the gods, and it ......"
Brandy didn't have time to talk nonsense with the proprietress and interrupted, "If everyone thinks so, then they're dead." ”
With that, he pulled Jiang Yi and went downstairs to open the door of the hotel.
"Where are we going?"
"Go and find the richest officials in Jizhou City, they must have the ...... to deal with unexpected disasters"
Before Brandy finished speaking, a hurricane rose from the ground, almost lifting the thin figures of the two people away, Jiang Yi was also frightened, just the wind that set off made her powerless to fight......
She stared sharply at the place where the danger warning was heard, a huge fireball, no, a huge creature wrapped in flames burrowing out of the ground!
Jiang Yi was dumbfounded for a moment, and then said in shock, "Lingzhimu is on fire!" ”
No wonder they suddenly went berserk!
As she spoke, she suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition, and ran back to the hotel with her brandy.
The moment they ran through the hotel door, a turquoise rain fell in the air!
The wind swept and the torrential rain hit the buildings in Jizhou, and the stone bricks and steel were instantly corroded, and only the wood could barely hold on in the acid rain.
"I heard that in the legend of Lingzhimu, there is something about acid rain," the white blue ground was gloomy, "Jizhou City is probably going to be destroyed." ”
Jiang Yi saw that the ceiling of the hotel was corroded to the point of being full of holes, like a leaky tent, and acid rain was constantly falling from the ceiling.
She was accidentally struck by a drop, and smoke immediately rose from her fair skin, and her flesh was corroded to the bone.
"Dragon's Breath!"
Black crystals erupted from in front of Jiang Yi's sword, forming a black cover, barely keeping the acid rain out of the grid.
"Sombra won't last long."
"Let's go underground." Brandy said.
"It's raining acid, help, help!"
On the streets, Jiang Yi kept seeing people who didn't have time to take shelter from the rain dissolving in the rain, and there was even a successor among those people.
Most of them let out terrible screams, and in the end they didn't even leave a corpse.
The streets are full of potholes, and the acid rain has eroded the land into depressions, and if the acid rain continues like this, the entire Jizhou City will become the next "desecration area".
More and more pain was keenly captured by Jiang Yi, she frowned, and suddenly saw the crazy city-citizens running towards Lingzhimu in groups.
"What are they doing?!"
Brandy glanced at it as well, and said in a mocking tone, "They're calling for help." ”
In the records of Jizhou City, the Lingzhi Wood protected them from the erosion of acid rain.
So when acid rain fell again in the sky, they ran almost instinctively towards the terrifying behemoth.
However, those people were like moths to a fire, and as soon as they approached the flames of the Lingzhi Wood, they were instantly burned and there was nothing left of the slag.
Before they could make any noise from their deaths, only the next group of poor people came forward without knowing it.
Brandy couldn't help but let out a mockery when he saw this scene on the way to evacuate.
"Stupid."
A city whose citizens are stupid will be kicked out of the stage of history sooner or later.
It depends on how long this rain will last.
At two o'clock in the morning, Zhou Xinyi was anxiously looking for an acquaintance in the remaining part of the night street.
He didn't know many people, but fortunately he found them all.
He meets the familiar government employees, Mr. Squidward, the innkeeper, as well as Jiang Yi and Brandy.
Zhou Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm glad you made the right choice in this time of crisis."
The innkeeper's heart palpitated, and she didn't seem to have recovered from the catastrophe, "I, I chased after Miss Jiang Yi and Mr. Brandy when they suddenly ran out of the hotel. ”
"Thanks to Miss Jiang Yi's special ability, thanks to the black crystal she made along the road...... I, it's horrible, my family, they're all ......."
The innkeeper thought of her family, whose life and death were uncertain, and sobbed in a low voice.
Zhou Xinyi also felt that all this was too sudden.
He's just getting to know the city, he's just getting a sense of life through the documents sent by the Order camp, he's just getting to know interesting people here......
Disaster struck without warning.
A good city was ruined like this.
This is a horrific thing to look at all the light curtains in history.
Brandy's face was not good-looking at the moment, and he felt uneasy that things were going out of control at the moment, "In this era, there are countless such incidents. ”
"There have been countless groups that have been destroyed by a hero, and ancient creatures like the Lingzhi Wood, whether they are heirs or natives, must be kept away."
Brandy smiled, "And Jizhou City is actually offering it underground?" It's no longer a matter of being with wolves, it's rowing in magma, it's just looking for death. ”
"At the beginning, Lingzhimu came uninvited, and the people of Jizhou also chose to coexist after decades of struggle." Day asked.
Brandy also looked at the pink-haired woman beside Zhou Xinyi, "Who is this?" ”
"Miss Day, the owner of the Night Street."
"I'm a traveler now," said Dayman, "and Nightstreet no longer exists." ”
"Miss Day," Brandy asked, "Then dare to ask why the people of Jizhou didn't relocate while Lingzhimu was sleeping?" ”
"The fate of the people of the Yi tribe back then is the best warning," said Dayan, "There is a lot of danger outside the city, how can it be easy to relocate." ”
Zhou Xinyi knew that at least Jizhou City was also planning to relocate now, but the progress was very limited.
Brandy said contemptuously, "To put it bluntly, it is caused by weakness." ”
Dayman nodded in agreement, "It's indeed the original sin." ”
"Anyway, Zhou Xinyi," Brandy said, "we have to consider leaving Ji Zhou early." ”
But Zhou Xinyi understood that what he was referring to was leaving this light curtain early.
