Chapter 041: Crimson
"Blood?" Xu Changsheng said in surprise, could it be some kind of Wood Walking Dao Technique?
"I can't say the specifics, but it doesn't look like a wooden path technique, or even a way to do it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Fang Jinwu frowned, "I saw that when he clenched his fists, blood oozed from under the skin of his hands, but he didn't feel the movement of his true qi, only the fluctuation of heaven and earth vitality, maybe ...... It's some kind of demon. His tone was extremely uncertain.
"All in all, let's keep some heart, I'm just passing through here, I'm about to leave the Liuyang Islands and go to Xihezhou, let's meet next time." Fang Jinwu waved his hand in a dashing manner and strode into the woods.
Xu Changsheng could see that Fang Jinwu's uncle could also be regarded as a martial idiot-type character, and it was indeed his luck to be able to meet and get guidance on Taoism here, but the two only met in Pingshui, and exchanged mutually beneficial and reciprocal exchanges, and they didn't even leave each other's contact information, next time they meet, I don't know what identity they will meet.
Xu Changsheng suddenly remembered Fang Jinwu's disgust towards magic weapons, and he had a feeling in his heart, he always felt that the next time they met, they would not be as peaceful as today.
"Oh! I forgot, I forgot to ask him if he had met the red man in the woods. Xu Changsheng patted his head and looked around, he could only return the same way and re-investigate the traces of Chi Wei from the clues he had discovered before.
......
In Wasteland City, the Lan family's mansion, basement.
Lan Zijun, wearing a white lab coat and a mask on her face, stood at a long table, carefully fiddling with the materials and equipment on the table.
On this long table, there is a simple, one-meter-square machine, the machine does not even have a shell, many gears and pipes are exposed, through the gap between the gear pipes, you can see that at the core of the machine, three palm-sized jade-colored squares, there are hundreds of fine white lines on the square pieces, and white light flows on the lines from time to time.
Lan Zijun lifted a test tube, but there was half a tube of blood in the test tube, she dripped a few drops of unknown liquid into the test tube, and shook it gently to ensure that the liquid and blood fused perfectly.
Then Lan Zijun picked up a pen and wrote on a notebook on the table: "On September 11, 1999, the 21st experiment to improve adaptability and balance was carried out, and the parameters of Zijin furnace were adjusted to scheme 7, and 50 ml of Xu Changsheng's blood was injected. ”
After writing this sentence, she poured all the blood in the test tube into one of the pipes of the machine, and then pressed the side of the machine with her right hand, and the true qi was injected into it, and the machine immediately let out a trembling sound, the gears rolled, and it was fully operational, and an opening opened from the front of the machine, just enough for a person's hand to reach into.
Lan Zijun took a deep breath, stretched out her left hand, and reached into the opening of the machine with a slight tremble, and when her fingertips touched the bottom, the opening of the machine made a clicking sound and bit her elbow.
Lan Zijun felt a sharp cold touch touch her wrist, and then she felt a slight pain, she knew that this was injecting Xu Changsheng's blood.
50 ml of blood was injected for two minutes, but this was not over, after the injection was completed, the needle tube was just withdrawn, and a hot feeling immediately poured out from the injection, and soon the heat turned into a burning pain, although Lan Zijun had experienced such a feeling many times, but she was still in a cold sweat with pain, and she trembled, but she still insisted on standing in place, letting her teeth bite her lips.
Fortunately, this burning sensation did not last long, and as soon as the burning sensation ended, the machine lifted the lock on her arm, and Lan Zijun hurriedly withdrew her left hand and carefully observed the place where blood was injected on her wrist.
Pieces of thin scales the size of half a fingernail rushed out from the pinhole, forming a circular cover on the wrist, like a light-colored flower, Lan Zijun took out a tweezer, clamped one of the scales, gritted his teeth and pulled it hard, like pulling out the nail cover, pulled the scales off, blood instantly gushed out from the wound, but it was instantly stopped by the contracted muscles and skin, and another piece of exactly the same scale grew out of it, if it weren't for the new scale there was still a trace of blood on it, otherwise it would be like nothing had happened.
Lan Zijun put the scales in a small transparent box, and as soon as she closed the box, there was a hot stinging pain in her wrist, and then the scales quickly fell off one by one, and before they landed, they turned into extremely fine powder in mid-air and disappeared.
Lan Zijun looked at the timer on the table, and then continued to write in the note: "The mutation time lasts for 9 seconds, the increase is about 20%, and the experiment is effective. ”
She put the transparent box with the plucked scales on the date, and placed it on a shelf behind her, on which there were already eighteen of the same transparent boxes, and it was obvious that the scales in these boxes were in chronological order, from small to large, from soft to hard, from transparent to colored, which showed that every time the scales grow, they are growing.
After completing all this, Lan Zijun wiped the sweat off his face, although the physical exertion was not much, but each experiment was a huge consumption of spirit and true qi.
"According to this calculation, as long as I do it about 50 times, my body can barely withstand this dragon gene. Lan Zijun sat on the chair and thought silently. Her gaze was a little misty, and it was obvious that there was hesitation in her heart again.
"Is it right or wrong for me to do this? Xu Changsheng can't be without suspicion of me, if I want to continue, how many variables will appear to hinder me?"
She licked some of the blood off her lips, picked up a pair of cyan handnails placed in the corner of the table, and gently stroked the pair of handnails for a long time, hesitated for a moment, and put them in her pocket.
"Cultivation...... Or is it a shortcut?"
She's still too weak.
......
Xu Changsheng finally followed the clues left by the red monster and traced it all the way to the edge of the woods, but at this time it was already close to night, and the moon was in the light of the setting sun, revealing a hazy form.
"After I go back from this mission, I must find someone to learn tracking technology, relying on the little information I read on the Internet, it is not enough at all. Xu Changsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and calmed his breathing, his true qi had almost recovered, but his physical strength was exhausted, since he had reached the edge of the woods, he would just take a rest first and eat something to fill his stomach.
If he can find the target tonight and successfully complete the task, then he won't need to spend the night in the wild tonight, but from the perspective of time, it seems to be a little difficult, mainly because Fang Jinwu dragged him a lot of time, but this is actually his own fault, and he can't help but be curious to learn to follow him.
Xu Changsheng bit the dry food and ate quickly, there is already such a thing as compressed biscuits in this world, and there are many flavors, the taste is passable, and it is very hungry, probably because of the geography of this world, Qi refiners, beasts and demons, etc., which leads to high demand and requirements for portable dry food, which promotes the development of related industries.
Xu Changsheng was thinking wildly, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a crimson figure flashing across the woods, on the long rocky beach, the image was a cheetah, but it seemed to be walking upright on both feet, with multiple tails dangling behind it.
"Hideous!"
