236. The fog falls

Due to the special nature of the spell, even if her throat is crushed, as long as she doesn't pull it out directly, it won't take any physical damage, and even if she recovers a little supernatural ability, she can have some hole cards for self-preservation.

"Okay?"

Seeing her and Xiao Man coming out, Dr. Zhuang greeted the two of them, and then said, "Let's go home quickly when you're done, it's not been peaceful lately." ”

"By the way, this medicine is expensive this time, and the consultation money given by your sister is almost used, you remember to raise money."

Xu Zhi nodded: "Got it, thank you, doctor." ”

Zhuang Xu waved his hand: "It's strange to be polite." ”

Don't scold him for charging expensive, just say thank you, this little girl is weird.

Xu Zhi buttoned up the plain black cap again, lowered her gaze and sat obediently in the wheelchair, on the way home, she carefully tried to raise her right hand, and poked the back of her left hand a little harder.

The good news is that the left hand, which was originally unconscious, has now regained its senses, and the bad news is that the recovery of the left hand is currently the slowest, and the penetrating wound on the abdomen has disappeared even the scar on the surface, but the left hand still has no strength.

In short, it's good that it's recovering.

When he got home, it was still early, and after cooking for Xu Zhi and sorting out new medicines, and changing to a new fever reducer, Qi Yanxin planned to go out to the factory, but just before he was about to go out, an accident happened.

- Whew!

A siren that pierced the gloomy sky, not even the roaring machinery of an industrial area could hide its penetrating siren.

Not only one, but after the first sound, it rang out ten times in a row after an interval of about five seconds.

After the siren stopped, Xu Zhi found that Qi Yanxin's face had become a little pale, and her steps to go out stopped, but she turned back to the house and picked up the cloth bag, she seemed to have changed her intended destination.

"What's going on?" Xu Zhi looked at her with a somewhat pale face.

Qi Yanxin's hand holding the cloth bag clenched slightly: "This is the seasonal warning issued by the Meteorological Bureau, the fog season is coming, you stay at home, I will go out to buy some food and go home." ”

Xu Zhi's brows furrowed slightly: "So suddenly? ”

Qi Yanxin didn't have time to explain, so he could only hurriedly say to her not to go out and left with his bag.

After Qi Yanxin left, Xu Zhi did not go out, but she could clearly hear that the slum streets, which were quiet most of the time in the past, suddenly became lively.

The sound of footsteps, hurried conversations, mixed with a little cursing and prayers, and the chaotic voices of people mingled with the roaring sound of factory machinery in the background, which made the usually slightly indifferent and gloomy slum instantly more "popular".

Xu Zhi curiously opened the curtain and looked outside, and saw that in the narrow corridor where there were almost no people during the day, there would be scavengers in a hurry, most of them carried or carried bags, and they would talk a few words when they met acquaintances, but most of them were expressing their irritability about the arrival of the foggy season.

Xu Zhi noticed that even the sound of the factory's roar day and night began to weaken, and it seemed that some of them had stopped work directly.

When you think about the foggy season, when workers can't go to work and don't get paid, it's even less likely that waste pickers go to the garbage dump to pick up waste, so it's no wonder that the resentment is so heavy.

When Qi Yanxin came back, the cloth bag was filled with food by her, but it was basically some processed food, without any fresh vegetables and fruits, and the processed food was cheap and large at the bottom, although it had no nutritional value, but it was full.

Xu Zhi sat quietly in a wheelchair and waited for Qi Yanxin to finish packing up his things, and then asked: "I see that everyone is hoarding food, can't you go out during the change of seasons?" ”

"It's not that you can't go out, but it's best not to go out, and even if you have to go out, try not to stay outside for a long time."

"Why? Is there some monster in the fog? Xu Zhi asked.

Qi Yanxin shook his head: "That's not it, there's nothing in the fog, but as long as people walk in it, it will be easy to get infected with all kinds of problems." ”

"What's the problem?"

Xu Zhi thought of the mist in Cloud City, which was a high-concentration energy aggregate, but it was also mixed with a high concentration of [Cup] attribute energy, which would cause people who inhaled too much to gradually fall into a frenzy and become a believer in [Cup], I don't know what is the difference between the fog outside and the inside?

"I can't summarize the specifics, but the dangers brought by the fog are different every time, some people become very irritable when they are contaminated with the fog, some become suspicious and suspicious, everyone suspects that the other party wants to kill them, and some of the fog will get all kinds of diseases, anyway, it is different every time."

"The last time the fog came, there was a worker who went crazy, he felt that he was much more powerful than the factory director, and the factory director should let him be the director, so he ran directly to the factory director to kill the other party and replace him, but no one saw the factory director and was killed."

When Qi Yanxin said this, there was still a little incredulity in his tone, thinking that person was really misty and had a completely broken brain.

"Generally, after the fog falls, the Meteorological Bureau will announce it the next morning, and we will know what the impact of this fog will be, and we will listen to the radio tomorrow."

"How long will that last?" If it lasted too long, it would be terrible for her to run out of medicine.

"I don't know." Qi Yanxin shook his head: "There is no pattern in the mist season, the fastest time is only one night, but the longest time lasts for two whole months. ”

"For two months, the bottom floor was almost shut down, and in the end, everyone couldn't help but want to go out, and the factory began to call for everyone to come back to work, but the result was a large number of deaths, and then even if the fog lasted for a long time, no one would want to go out unless they ran out of ammunition and food."

"Didn't I remember saying that the last season change was just a short time ago?" Xu Zhi remembered that Qi Yanxin said before that there would probably be a while before the change of season.

"Yes." The woman nodded hesitantly: "No matter how fast it was, there would be at least three or four months apart, but this time it really came too fast, and everyone was not prepared." ”

"That's it."

Is there a reason for the abnormal situation or is it a simple coincidence?

The description of the fog heard from the woman's mouth is not quite consistent with that of Cloud City, but it cannot be ruled out that there is no similarity between the two.

"Are the transcendents also afraid of the fog?" She suddenly looked up and asked.

"This." Qi Yanxin thought about it carefully: "It doesn't seem necessarily? ”

"I don't know any transcendentals, so I can't be sure, but I heard Ye Ran's father say that a transcendent person he knows once helped him deliver supplies when the fog was rising."

"Maybe the transcendents are more powerful?"

Is it that the transcendent has some resistance to the things in the fog that can affect people's minds or cause them to get sick?

Or is it that the transcendent attribute that Ye Cheng knows is more special?

In short, the fog was coming soon, and when the fog came, she would be able to know what the difference between this fog and Cloud City's was there.
