On this night in this weird base, Lu Shi didn't sleep well tonight.
It's not that he is seriously ill, but that in the end of the world, people are unpredictable. He doesn't believe that there will be any good people who are selfless and sacrificed themselves, such as Mr. Gu.
It sounds full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but Lu Shi feels hypocritical no matter how he thinks about it.
Fortunately, the night was spent safely. At dawn, Lu Shijin woke up and urged him to leave. Staying at this base for another second, and it may be more dangerous.
The two were packing up and were about to leave the room to meet others. Lu Shijin suddenly heard the sound of small animals scratching the door outside the door. When they opened the door, there was a chubby orange cat squatting at the door, squinting at him with the green cat's eyes.
"Where did the cat come from?" Lu Shi feels strange today.
Big Fat Orange raised his paws and stroked her beard. The tail behind her buttocks shook leisurely. Seeing Lu Shijin coming out, she was not afraid of stranger at all, as if she knew Lu Shijin.
Lu Shijin also inexplicably felt familiar with the cat, especially the corners of the cat's mouth, which looked like imitating people laughing.
"This cat usually eats well at first glance. It should be someone's pet to keep it so fat, right? How did you find me?" Lu Shi joked sincerely and half-falsely. He squatted down and touched the fat orange's head. "Since you sent it to your door, don't blame me for being cruel and spicy, and I don't know if the roast cat meat is delicious or not."
"Cat meat is not delicious! Meow!" Pang Ju scratched Lu Shijin's claw angrily. Lu Shijin suddenly heard Pang Ju spitting out. She was shocked. He turned his head and shouted to Ting, "Come to Xiang Ting!" There is a cat here who has become a sperm!"
Fat Orange walked around leisurely, "You're just a sperm, meow!" Stupid Xiaolu, I don't even know meow?
Hearing this familiar tone, Lu Shijin suddenly thought of something and asked suspiciously, "Are you - Lin Dong?"
Fat orange shook the huge cat's head proudly. "Yes, my power has evolved meow. In the future, I can not only change the table and chair, but also become an animal meow, meow meow meow meow meow~"
Lu Shijin: "..." Lin Dong's fat figure gradually overlapped with this orange cat, which was also fat as a ball, and coupled with the cute cry of the orange cat, it was really indescribable.
"Do you change anything but a cat?" Lu Shijin asked with interest, "For example, tigers, lions, elephants, dinosaurs and other beasts."
Fat Orange: "What do you think? Meow, my power now seems to be only a small animal meow like a puppy kitten. I can also turn a mouse into a sparrow, and it will be more convenient to escape for life in the future~"
Lu Shijin: "..." Sure enough, there is still little combat effectiveness, but it's good to become a sparrow and fly, but I don't know if such a fat sparrow can fly.
Xiang Ting came over and looked, "Since Lin Dong's power has evolved, Tang Qin and Su Ling's power should also have evolved. Let's go to them together.
Lu Shi had no objection today. He looked down at the shape of Lin Dong or an orange cat and asked, "Aren't you going to change back?"
Fat Orange shook her head and said, "What are you doing? I think it's too tiring to be a human being, or it's more comfortable to be an animal. Do you know what my greatest wish is?"
Lu Shijin asked in cooperation, "What is it?"
"It's just to be a pet cat or dog in your next life. I don't carefree. I do two things all day long, eat and sleep," Fat Orange Meow sighed. "Of course, the premise is that if there is a next life, meow."
Lu Shijin thought so, "This is also my wish."
"Pet cats and dogs are all sterilized. Would you also like to?" Xiang Ting suddenly said a sentence idle aside.
Yes, if you want to cut the eggs, Lu Shijin and Fat Orange felt that the crotch was tight and silent at the same time.
Forget it. It's better to be a person. It's also good to be a person.
The two found Tang Qin and Su Ling's room. After knocking on the door twice, Tang Qin and Su Ling came out of the room.
"Have your powers evolved?" Ask the ting straightforward.
Tang Qin nodded. Somehow, his expression was a little stiff.
Xiang Ting smiled and said, "That's good. It seems that Mr. Gu gave you the nucleus. It's getting late. It's time for us to go on the road. Let's go to Mr. Gu to resign.
"Wait! Xiang Ting!" Tang Qin did not take his legs and stopped Xiang Ting. When Xiang Ting heard that Tang Qin did not call him "Brother Xiang" as usual, he suddenly called his full name strangely. His heart sank and slowly turned around to look at him, "What else can I do?"
Tang Qin's face was very unnatural, and so was Su Ling standing next to him. Her eyes were red and her eyelids were swollen.
After hesitation for a while, Tang Qin took Su Ling's hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Well, Lingzi and I decided to stay and not leave."
The atmosphere suddenly became very embarrassing. The four of them stood like this. No one spoke first. Even the fat orange squatting at Lu Shijin's feet was much more serious. The expression on the cat's face was much more serious, and the tail forgot to shake.
In fact, Tang Qin made the decision he wanted to stay, but Lu Shijin did not feel surprised.
Doubt is like a seed. Once planted into people's hearts and a little provoked, it can quickly take root and germinate, spread faster and faster.
Tang Qin and Su Ling have begun to distrust Xiang Ting, and this base looks very safe. They don't have to be as wandering as before. There is also a good boss surnamed Gu. It is normal for them to have the idea they want to leave.
Xiang Ting said lightly, "You want to stay. Of course I respect your decision, but how much do you know about it here? What if it's a trap?"
Tang Qin gritted his teeth and said, "Liang Ting, you don't need to preaching tone. For so long, we have done what you say because we believe in you, but we also have our own judgment. We are not your subordinates, and you are not our leaders."
"I never regard you as my subordinates. As I said, we are a team," Xiang Ting looked blank. "I'm just temporarily playing the role of leader. If you want, you can take it."
Tang Qin snorted coldly, "Team? Do you think you are working on a project in college? I don't care about team leaders and so on, but Reiko and I don't want to hand over our lives to others anymore. We want to make our own decisions, so Xiang Ting, let's all for the end. Let's get together and break up.
"Brother Xiang, Tang Qin is a little flush. Don't take it to heart." Su Ling choked and pulled Tang Qin back. She stood in front of the front and said, "You took us all the way. We thank you very much, but I don't want to live such a frightened life again, so we decided to stay last night. We have inquired with the people here. Foreign powers can be admitted here. As long as they follow them to complete the task every day, they can have no worries about food and clothing and get crystal cores. We all think it's very good here, Brother Xiang, if you want, can you stay with us? You can still have a look for."
Xiang Ting looked at Lu Shijin, turned his head and looked at Su Ling coldly, "I won't stay. At the beginning, we came out to find a self-help organization, and my goal will not change."
"Did you hear me? I told you that you can't talk to him," Tang Qin sneered and pulled Su Ling back. "He is such an arbitrary and headstrong person."
Lu Shijin sneered like Tang Qin and sarcastically said, "Tang Qin, you talk back. Don't sarcastically with your mother holding a gun and stick. Xiang Ting doesn't owe you anything, but saves you again and again. You don't know that it's okay to repay kindness. It's okay to stay treacherous, but why do you use a pair of it as if you Ting, I'm sorry for accusing him?"
Tang Qin was ashamed and angry, "What does it matter to you!" He looked back and forth between Xiang Ting and Lu Shijin and mocked disdainfully, "Oh, I see. You two get along well, right? I said that your concubine didn't prick your heart?"
"Ba Dan!" Lu Shijin was furious and raised his fist to smash Tang Qin, a villain's determined face, but Xiang Ting didn't give him a chance. He took action a step faster than him. He summoned out thunder and lightning to back Tang Qin several steps.
"You fucking dare to do it!" Tang Qin was furious and rushed forward to fight back. He was pulled to death by Su Ling. Tang Qin blushed with anger and shouted at Su Ling, "What are you doing with me?" He has powers and I have it. I'm afraid he won't do it?!"
Su Ling cried, "Don't fight. You can say less. Brother Xiang, I'm sorry. What Tang Qin just said was angry. It's not intentional. I apologize for him."
Xiang Ting said coldly, "Whether intentionally or unintentionally, what he said is poured water. It's useless to apologize afterwards. Tang Qin and Su Ling, it seems that our fate is here. If you want to stay, I won't stop it. Everyone will cherish it in the future.
"Oh, how's it going? It's a quarrel. Meow."
"Who is talking!" Su Ling heard a strange sound that did not belong to the four of them. She looked around and found that the sound was made in the mouth of an orange cat brought by Lu Shijin. She was frightened, "Why can the cat still speak human words?"
Fat orange drooped the cat's eye, "It's me, Lin Dongmiao. My power has evolved and I can become a small animal. Meow, but unfortunately, I just become more useful, and we'm going to break up."
"Lin Dong?" When Tang Qin heard that the orange cat claimed to be Lin Dong, his eyes turned around and quickly said, "Brother Dong, do you want to stay with us?"
Tang Qin is now eager to have someone on the united front with him to prove that he is right. He is no worse than Xiang Ting.
He felt that Lin Dong had the best time with him, and after getting along with each other these days, he knew that Lin Dong was also a greedy and afraid of death. There was no reason why Lin Dong not to stay.
As long as Lin Dong said he was willing to stay, it means that Xiang Ting completely lost his hearts. Just thinking about it, Tang Qin felt very happy.
"I?" The orange cat smacked the cat's mouth, "It's better."
Tang Qin puzzled, "Why?"
Orange Cat: "You two are a couple. Why am I left alone? I used as a light bulb?"
Tang Qin pointed to Xiang Ting and Lu Shijin, "...Do you think they are not a couple?"
"It's different," Orange Cat Zhenzhen said. "They are both men. I'm not the base. Even if they show love, I won't have lemons. Besides, Xiao Lu and I first met. It's reasonable to go with him. It's better to be a man from beginning to end. Well, you can stay at ease. I wish you all the best in the future, meow.
The talker is unintentional, and the listener has the intention.
The four words "the beginning and end" hit Tang Qin's face like a slap, invisibly feeling a hot pain on his face.
Tang Qin was so ashamed that he pulled Su Ling away angrily.
Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting took Fat Orange to Mr. Gu to say goodbye. Mr. Gu politely said a few words to retain them, but when they saw that they had decided, they didn't say anything more and sent them some food to eat on the way.
When Xiang Ting drove to land, Jin and Lin Dong left the base. The moment the car left the gate of the base, the haze that accumulated in Lu Shijin's heart suddenly disappeared, and finally felt relaxed. No matter how good the appearance of this damn place looked, he didn't want to stay for a moment.
He sat on the co-pilot and looked at the mirror on the right. He was going to say goodbye to the base farther and farther behind him, but he didn't expect to see a familiar figure flashing past in the gate of the base from afar.
But when he rubbed his eyes and then fixed his eyes to confirm who it was, the figure disappeared again.
Was he dazzled just now?
That figure? Why does it look so much like the dead Du Jiang?
Xiang Ting, who was driving, found that Lu Shijin bowed his head and was absent-minded. His face was a little solemn. He asked with concern, "What are you thinking?"
Lu Shi felt at first and said lightly, "No, nothing, I'm still thinking about the base. I don't think the things there are as simple as they seem. How can anyone treat a few strangers for no reason? Is it really okay for Tang Qin and Su Ling to stay in it?"
Xiang Ting's eyebrows were very indifferent. "It's them who insist on staying. No matter what happens in the future, it's also their own choice."
"You can't be open," Lu Shijin laughed and joked. "After all, I've been a teammate for so long. Aren't you really not worried at all?"
Xiang Ting glanced at him, "I'm not a saint. I asked myself if I was not sorry for them, but they didn't believe me. If you get together, you will gather. If you don't agree, you will be divided. It's that simple.
"Well say, if we get together. If you don't agree, you will divide." Lu Shijin gently put his hand on Xiang Ting's shoulder. "Don't worry about those who are not worth it. And I'll accompany you. I will accompany you all the way."
"Hey! And me, meow!" Fat Orange, who had been lying on the back seat and dozing, shouted dissatisfiedly, "Did you forget me to meow?"
Lu Shijin turned his head and looked at Fat Orange and smiled, "I really didn't expect it. Brother Dong. I usually saw that you had a good relationship with Tang Qin, and I thought you would also choose to stay with them."
Fat Orange stretched out and said lazily, "Have fun well. In front of big and wrong, your brother Dong can still carry a clear meow. We are a team. Either stay together or go together. Although it is safe and there is food and drink in that base, I always feel like a prison inside. I don't like to live a life under the control of others, or I'm still free outside.
Lu Shi gave a thumbs up today, "Brother Dong is righteous!" But Brother Dong, let's discuss something with you.
Fat Orange said, "Say it."
Lu Shijin: "Can you stop meowing to meow?" You are a fat man who is cute. Why do I sound so awkward? If you become a dog, don't you still have to bark?"
Fat Orange was furious and showed her sharp cat claws when he landed: "Uncle, I'm happy, I want you to take care of meow!" Do you want to teach meow meow boxing!"
Lu Shijin looked scared and hugged his fist and begged for mercy: "I dare not dare. You can meow as much as you like!" You can do whatever you want!"
Xiang Ting listened to their gags one by one cat, and his gloom caused by being abandoned by his teammates was slightly eliminated.
The next journey was also smooth. For several days in a row, there was no danger of zombies and evil powers.
On the third night of leaving the base, the three stopped camping in a secluded forest.
The south is a territory where powers gather, so the more south they go, the smaller the scope of human activities. They have driven all the way and found no place where human beings gather, which also means that their destination is getting closer and closer.
Lin Dong is still a fat orange. As long as he doesn't want to become a human, he will always maintain a changing form even at night.
It's much easier to take a cat on the road than to take someone. For example, you can save a lot of space in the car to put supplies, and you don't have to bother to find a place for the cat to sleep at night.
And of course, Lin Dong seems to be tired of falling in love with the feeling of being an animal, which makes him a human. He is not happy.
Of course, Lu Shijin reasonably suspects that this lazy cat doesn't want to become a human, just because it wants to be lazy and doesn't want to work.
As night fell deeper, Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting slept in the tent. Lin Dong lay on Lu Shijin slept in a small nest made for him with cardboard boxes.
Cats are keen in hearing and wake up from sleep. They are a little windy and grassy, which can't hide their ears.
Suddenly, Fat Orange was woken up by a rustling sound in the distance. He moved his sensitive ears and heard a very light footsteps. The round cat's eyes immediately stared into a bronze bell, staring at the darkness in the distance. His back unconsciously bowed nervously and ready to go.
The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, and even the sound of stepping down on the weeds on the soles was clearly heard. Fat Orange finally couldn't help it. A sad and loud cat barking sounded in the night, immediately woke up Xiang Ting and Lu Shijin, who were immersed in his sleep.
Lu Shijin woke up and immediately heard the breathing of the third person. He subconsciously picked up the gun hidden under the pillow and shouted, "Who!"
Xiang Ting whispered and asked Lu Shijin, "How many people have you come?"
Lu Shijin only heard a person breathing and said affirmatively, "One."
Just one, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Xiang Ting also took a gun in his hand, got out of the tent with a flashlight, opened the flashlight, and a bright beam of light shone in the direction of the fat orange covetously staring, warning in a low voice: "Who sneaks there, come out!" Otherwise, I'll shoot!"
"Don't shoot! It's me!"
A man who sounded familiar sounded. Then, a man's figure was illuminated by the light of the flashlight and moved up to the light of the Tingba flashlight. After illuminating the man's face, he said in a voice, "Du Jiang? How could it be you!"
Lu Shijin also got out of the tent and saw that Du Jiang was indeed a little surprised when he came, but soon calmed down.
Since Du Jiang is indeed alive, it seems that the figure he saw when he left the base in the morning admitted his mistake, that is Du Jiang.
Lu Shijin was full of doubts. That day, when he rescued Xiang Ting wanted to go to Du Jiang, 711 did not scan the signs of Du Jiang's life. How did he disappear out of thin air from the building besieged by zombies?
Moreover, since he was not dead, why didn't he come back to gather with the army?
In addition, why did Du Jiang appear in Mr. Gu's base? Are you following them here again?
What secrets are hidden in Du Jiang? Is he an enemy or a friend now? What's the purpose of his coming here?
"Are you not dead?" Xiang Ting looked sideways at Lu Shijin. At the beginning, it was Lu Shijin who chisled that Du Jiang was dead, but now Du Jiang appeared in front of him calmly, and Xiang Ting's heart was also full of doubts.
Did Lu Shijin deceive him, or did Du Jiang cheat to death?
However, Xiang Ting only wavered for a moment, and soon strengthened his mind and listened to the guidance of his heart. He chose to believe that he had experienced so much and was still standing beside him.
"Yes, I'm not dead. Xiang Ting, I finally found you. Du Jiang took two steps forward to get closer to them, but Xiang Ting did not put down the gun pointing at him in his hand and said seriously, "Stop first and don't come here to explain where you've been in the past few days?"
While the two men spoke, Lu Shijin quietly turned his head and made a "boo" gesture to Fat Orange, signaling Lin Dong not to speak and not to let Du Jiang find out that he was actually a human secret.
Lin Dong can now become a small animal, and it is much more convenient than human beings to do something.
Du Jiang said, "We were besieged by zombies that day. I really had no choice but to hide in my personal space to escape. When I came out to find you, I couldn't find you anymore."
Lu Shijin: "Isn't there no air in your portable space and can't hide people?"
Du Jiang: "I have an oxygen cylinder in it. I can hold on for a while."
This shows that Du Jiang actually had a way to escape at that time, but he watched him and Xiang Ting die without mentioning a word, only for himself running for his life alone and being a selfish person.
Fortunately, I was not stupid enough to go back to find him at that time. If it had died for such a person, it was not worth it.
Lu Shijin sneered, "No wonder I didn't scan you. You are smart and can hide."
Du Jiang recognized that Lu Shijin was satirizing him and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think of this method at the last minute..."
Xiang Ting experienced the betrayal of Tang Qin and Su Ling. He had long been indifferent to what teammates. He interrupted him coldly and asked, "Since you are not dead, why don't you come back to us?"
Du Jiang: "I also want to find you, but on the way back, I knocked down Mr. Gu's group again!"
Xiang Ting: "What is 'Ye'?"
Du Jiang said, "Do you remember the gang of powers who kidnapped us at Lin Dong's house at that time? In fact, they are all Mr. Gu's men, that is, the group of people from the base! After I met them, I was taken to the base and seized and forced to join them. When I saw you enter the base that day, I wanted to recognize you, but I was afraid of beating grass and frightening snakes, which aroused Mr. Gu's suspicion, so I didn't dare to act rashly.
Lu Shijin: "Then how did you come out to find us?"
"Do you think Mr. Gu really let you go?" Du Jiang smiled and said, "When you left the base, he sent someone to follow you all the way, and I happened to be assigned to follow you this time. Tonight, I took advantage of everyone else's sleep and let me vigil to remind you that Mr. Gu didn't intend to let you go of it go at all. You. Be careful."
"The problem is," Lu Shijin turned the gun in his hand. "Why didn't Gu let us go?" We didn't offend him again.
Du Jiang said sympathetically, "Because he is a demon!" A complete executioner, murderer! After I went to the base, I accidentally knew his secret. He controlled others through mind reading and let others work for him. Those zombies were actually made by him, and there were no evil powers at all. On the surface, he traded with human beings, but secretly controlled the powers to help him kill people to get the crystal core. He wanted to create An army of the strongest powers came to help him dominate the world! Those people in the base have been controlled by him, including Tang Qin and Su Ling. He also fell in love with you and pretended to let you go, but to convince you that he was a good person. He sent someone to follow you all the way, found an opportunity to attack you, and forced you to be desperate. He could only go back to work for him. If you still don't want to look back, those people will hurt you.
"Then why aren't you under his control?" Ask Ting.
Du Jiang: "Because like you, I didn't absorb the crystal nucleus he gave. Crystal nuclei are insignificant to him, but it is a good way to buy people's hearts. Once the power has tried the benefits of power evolution, they will have a greedy heart to have more and more crystal cores. Mr. Gu uses this way to control people's hearts.
So it turns out. No wonder Tang Qin and Su Ling evolved into second-order powers and wanted to stay like a demon, but why did Lin Dong also absorb the crystal nucleus? He was not affected?
Thinking that as long as Lin Dong's sky collapses, as long as there is a tall man, he doesn't care about it, Lu Shi now understands the generality.
Maybe the crystal core can buy people's hearts, but they can't buy a salted fish heart.
Xiang Ting was silent for a while and put away his gun. At present, what Du Jiang said did not sound flawless. He was still willing to believe Du Jiang.
"Du Jiang, thank you for coming to tell us this. Now that you have escaped, go with us and then find a way to get rid of Mr. Gu's people."
"We can't go. Tang Qin and Su Ling are still in the base. We have to save them!" Du Jiang said solemnly, "And if Gu doesn't get rid of it in one day, more people will be killed in the future. We have to find a way to get rid of him!"
Lu Shijin couldn't help laughing. Du Jiang said so awe-inspiringly that he didn't know that he was the hero.
It's just that this sounds so ridiculous when it comes to people who only think about themselves at a moment of life and death?
Lu Shijin asked coldly, "Du Jiang, can we believe you?"
Du Jiang felt offended with anger: "We are teammates. How can I lie to you?" I'm helping you!"
Lu Shijin smiled and pretended to be like that. He really didn't cry without seeing the coffin.
Unfortunately, he did not meet stupid and sweet, but Uncle Lu, who was full of eyes and insight.
"Convenience store," Lu Shijin rang his finger and silently summoned 711 in his heart, "Exchanging a 'truth card' for this grandson. I'd like to listen. In what he said, a few words are true and some are false."
