Chapter 4 Wishes
If the ground part of Tianyang City is likened to a world-class palace, the forest is orderly, the buildings are criss-crossed, and the newly developed technologies will be applied at a very fast speed, and it is the city of hope that everyone dreams of.
Then its underground water pipes are like an elaborate labyrinth, becoming a paradise for some small animals, and even a place for some lawbreakers, who cannot afford to rent a house, who are sent back to the city, and where wanted people hide.
It is like the two sides of Tai Chi Yin and Yang, always accompanying each other, each other is inside and outside, and even indispensable.
Wang Ziyu dragged a stump leg and kept moving along the sewer pipe into the depths of the city.
The sewage on the ground was up to my ankles, which was a little disgusting.
He Qiusheng had already been woken up by him, and only used a rope to hold her hands and drag her forward.
He Qiusheng was a girl with some dark skin and thick eyebrows, and after a brief panic, He Qiusheng forced herself to calm down.
After carefully observing his situation, He Qiusheng asked, "Is this a sewer?" ”
"Can you let me go?"
"What is your purpose? Who the hell is it? If I'm not mistaken, your school registration form is a seventeen-year-old person, and he is going to do something illegal at a young age! ”
At the same time, she kept looking, trying to find the surveillance in the sewers, but in vain.
For some reason, there is not a single monitoring in the sewers of Tianyang City, which is full of surveillance.
Wang Ziyu smiled dumbly, and did not answer the forced questions of the classmates behind him, but stopped and looked back at her.
He Qiusheng was not good, and the images that flashed in her mind prompted her to stop, and in some claustrophobic sewers, she could hear the sound of rodents, as if they were eating something.
But before she could speak, a feeling of suffocation came over her face, and no matter how much she struggled, she could not breathe fresh air.
When she was about to suffocate, Wang Ziyu stopped.
He Qiusheng gasped for breath, ignoring the foul smell in the sewers, and just when she thought there was still room for negotiation, the feeling of suffocation came again.
Wang Ziyu repeated five or six times, examining his works with a happy expression, he liked the painful appearance of others, until He Qiusheng showed a begging eye for mercy, and then said: "Don't talk too much nonsense, just follow me." ”
Wang Ziyu, who was wearing a high school uniform, but was more like a demon in words and actions, walked in front, and He Qiusheng followed closely behind, constantly cutting off his hair during the process, wanting to leave a mark on it.
Wang Ziyu walked ahead, ignoring her small movements, and asked with a smile: "Whether you believe it or not, I don't have any ill will towards you, but next, you can think about a question, for example, is there a god in this world?" ”
He Qiusheng had no other way, and said casually: "There should be something, right?" ”
"How so?"
"Hmm...... The superpowers we have are like a miracle. Even if the school uses a data terminal to stimulate a specific area of our cerebral cortex, there is a high probability that we will not be able to obtain superpowers, so some people say that this is the ability given to humans by the gods. ”
"Maybe you won't believe it, but I dream almost every night, and there are a lot of strange scenes in my dreams."
He Qiusheng paused, and then said: "There seems to be a woman in the dream, her face can't be seen clearly, her body exudes golden light, but the top of her head is blood-red. I don't remember what she was trying to do, except that one man angrily cut off her head and rolled it at my feet. ”
"There was also a man, tall and thin, with gold-rimmed glasses, who could not see clearly, who picked up a woman's head and placed it around his neck, such an unbelievable scene may be a nightmare for others, but for me, it may be a corner of the future."
He Qiusheng said bitterly: "With the fable, peeking into the future, but I can't escape from it, there should really be a god in the dark to punish me." ”
Wang Ziyu nodded with a smile, and the young man said: "It sounds very interesting, but the gods in my mouth are more mysterious and more incredible than this, have you ever seen them?" ”
He Qiusheng said softly: "Have you been brainwashed?" It's too late to turn back. ”
He Qiusheng thought for a while and said cautiously: "But I really don't like to drink coffee, if it's milk tea, I can still accept it." ”
Wang Ziyu smiled dumbly, walked ahead, and somehow took out a shot of medicine and hit his leg, his tired state was relieved, and he accelerated his pace slightly.
The two walked for about twenty minutes until they came to a dead end.
He Qiusheng was about to speak, Wang Ziyu put his finger to his lips, signaled silence, and then his face was full of piety, knelt aside and made a wish: "I hope to be able to reach the temple." ”
The words fell, and an illusory door appeared on the wall of the sewer, and the door opened creaked, and He Qiusheng was dragged into it.
There are no magnificent decorations behind the door, and there are no so-called miracles of the gods, but it just looks like an air-raid shelter, deep underground in Tianyang City.
In the center of the cave was a large circular machine, deeply rooted in the earth, wriggling as if it were sucking the flesh of the earth.
The machine is surrounded by dense tubes that connect the hidden nutrition pods to it, and in each of the nutrient pods a person can be seen lying in it, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.
From time to time, you can hear the terrible screams of a pregnant woman in labor, and He Qiusheng's scalp is numb.
Especially when she saw those nutrition tubes, she thought of the fable's dream, the chains that fell from the sky, and she couldn't help but shiver fiercely.
According to the fable, lie down in it yourself?
Sure enough, sometimes a fable that is too accurate is not necessarily a good thing.
While feeling desperate, He Qiusheng couldn't help but think of the 'sword' he threw behind the dormitory building, and he didn't know if he would have a chance to meet it again.
How great it is to be a heroine who fights with a sword in her hand.
Wang Ziyu seemed to see through the girl's thoughts, and said calmly: "It's similar to what you think, you will also be one of them." ”
"The City of Hope is a city where technology and abilities coexist, and countless students from all over the world flock to it. Hua Shao Kingdom, Luoxiang Country, and Ye Ying Country, these three big countries have sent the most students. The students all think that they can make a name for themselves in this city and benefit the people, and they are destined to make a name for themselves in the world, but you seem to have forgotten that if you have gains, you have to pay. ”
"It's ridiculous to say that for tens of thousands of years, human society has been scattered and fighting with each other, but the advent of the beast and the existence of the City of Hope have prevented the continuation of the war. People with abilities like you and me are called immortals outside of this city, hahaha...... Immortals? It's ridiculous. ”
"You probably don't know, do you? In school, a person like you is a good student, but in the eyes of some big people, you are a treasure trove all over your body, a moving piece of gold. ”
When Wang Ziyu said this, he kept glancing at He Qiusheng.
He Qiusheng trembled constantly, his face became more and more pale, seeing this, Wang Ziyu smiled and didn't say anything more about his thoughts.
probably felt that although he was a high school student with the girl, He Qiusheng belonged to a poor person who knew nothing about the world in his eyes, so he changed the topic.
"Humans built this city with technology, but they are bent on supernatural abilities. On the beast side, they bring special abilities, but they pursue technology, and what is even more terrifying is the form of these beasts......"
"Power is always a nightmare for everyone, especially those big people, the higher they stand, the more afraid they are of death."
Wang Ziyu stared at He Qiusheng and said meaningfully: "Don't blame me in the future, if you want to blame those old guys who are good but don't dare to die casually." ”
He Qiusheng was dragged away by several people with their faces covered, and until he was locked in the nutrition cabin, He Qiusheng couldn't shout the word 'help'.
Wang Ziyu leaned against the wall, and several robots were operating on themselves, they did not have tags on their bodies, and they belonged to privately produced models.
He looked at the strange-shaped machine in the middle and sighed softly, "Wish......"
On the side, a guy wearing a hood and couldn't see men and women clearly whispered, "After completing the task, you can make a wish." ”
