On the field.
An off-road vehicle was galloping at full power, with the grass on the roadside swaying unsteadily, followed by dozens of persevering Yakshas.
After a full ten minutes, the group of yakshas finally had enough smoke and dust, roared twice towards the back of the car, and left angrily.
inside the car.
There was a strong atmosphere of suppressed grief and anger.
Li Kui was a little unnatural.
To say that he feels sympathy and sadness is undoubtedly pretentious, but it is a bit of a pity... He has deep admiration for Lao Xin, whom he has only met once. Breaking off and making sacrifices require a lot of courage and determination, and not everyone can do it. .
It was also a coincidence that I caught a glimpse of Huo Anguo holding a photo in his gauze-tied hand in front of him. On it was a girl with a smile like a flower, wearing a hat, pressing the brim of the hat with her hand, smiling brightly, with the desolate wilderness behind her.
"It should be the girl named Xiao An."
Li Kui turned his head and sighed inwardly when he saw Xiaoyang's red eyes taking care of the injured.
Nothing to do.
He simply picked up the rag beside the car and wiped the blood scab on the knife. His eyes suddenly froze, and he found that there was a jagged gap in the Yanling knife. Although it was very small, he discovered it immediately.
This made Li Kui extremely distressed. The Yanling Sword with two points of merit had only been used for a few days!
"Damn Yaksha!"
…………
The sky was hazy, and the off-road vehicle stopped outside the abandoned factory.
This should be Huo Anguo's supply base.
"call--"
Li Kui got out of the car as if he was running away, found a corner sheltered from the wind, squatted down and took out the crumpled cigarette case from his pocket, and lit it with his hand.
The thin green smoke drifted away slowly.
tread……
Li Kui turned his head and found that it was Huo Anguo walking over. He smiled and gave him a cigarette.
"Hey, it's rare to see cigarettes from the old days."
Huo Anguo had a smile on his face, but when Fang spoke, his voice was so hoarse that even he was stunned.
"Thank you, is your name Li Kui?"
"Um!"
Li Kui squinted his eyes and looked at the desolate wilderness.
"Thank you, thank you for saving all of our lives."
Huo Anguo took a deep breath of cigarette and thanked him again.
Before he came over, Xiaoyang had told him about Li Kui's help. To be honest, Huo Anguo was very grateful, otherwise the eight people searching for supplies this time would have died in that small town.
Li Kui pulled down the corner of his mouth and smiled but did not answer.
Save people and kill monsters equally. If you can save him, help him. If you can't save him, you won't lose your life.
only……
"I would like to ask, brother Li Kui, where are you from? You are very different." Huo Anguo asked in a hoarse voice.
Maybe this sentence would be abrupt and unfriendly, but as the captain, he needs to consider the safety of other team members and cannot let Lao Xin and the others sacrifice in vain.
Because the young man named Li Kui in front of him is really special.
"I'm not from anywhere. I'm wandering around with no fixed place to live."
Li Kui didn't feel angry and gave an ambiguous answer. He can understand Huo Anguo's behavior, and he would do the same in another position, but he is a little curious: "What do you think is different about me?"
"Hahaha..." Huo Anguo smiled heartily, "Your skin color is very healthy; your eyes are very normal; your spirit is very excited."
"In today's world, a lone wolf cannot survive. You don't look like you have been hungry."
"Well……"
Li Kui laughed dumbly, took a deep breath and threw away the cigarette butt: "I'm high because I'm on drugs."
Yes, Living Qi Dan.
He exchanged one merit point for seven elixirs and ate them all. This thing not only restores mana, but also has a similar effect on stimulating the spirit, which is also the reason for the excitement.
Produced on parchment paper, everyone who uses it will give it a thumbs up!
"Well, I have some questions."
"You said... I will tell you whatever I know."
"Why do strangers undergo such strange changes?"
"ah?"
Huo Anguo's reaction was exactly the same as that of Xiaoyang at that time. He was stunned by this question. He looked Li Kui up and down and said doubtfully:
"You don't know about aliens?"
"I only know that foreigners are human beings who have been eroded by resentment and yin energy all year round, and their spirits are close to abnormality." Li Kui said frankly: "When I saw Lao Xin and the foreigner, I found that the mental changes seemed to be less than I imagined. So simple.”
"..."
"You are really special."
Huo Anguo saw that Li Kui's expression didn't look like he was being hypocritical. He couldn't help but sigh, and then said seriously: "Sooner or later, all of us will become aliens. Like Lao Xin and the alien leader's brother, we can actually be called new human beings." Got it!"
"New humans?"
"Yes, did you see my eyes?"
"Um."
"When you reach my level, it can be said that you have reached the threshold of mental mutation. When your eyes are completely bloodshot and you can't see the pupils, you will either evolve a new human or become a monster that kills people wantonly."
"So that's it."
Li Kui suddenly realized it, then thought about it and asked curiously: "Then what is the difference between transforming into a new human being and becoming a monster?"
Hearing this, Huo Anguo had an elusive smile on his face and said with a smile:
"It's obsession!"
"Obsession?"
"Yes, for example, Lao Xin became like that because he was extremely thirsty for power at that time, and he longed for the power to take revenge. And the strange person also had related obsessions, so he had such exaggerated healing ability."
Huo Anguo took out his cigarette from the top of his clothes, wrapped the tobacco in a small paper, and the pungent and choking smell poured into his lungs. The familiar feeling made the sadness in his heart dissipate a lot.
"It's easy to say, but the key to becoming a new human is to be able to find your own sanity after alienation."
"I heard that the fortress is led by new humans." Li Kui said.
"Yes, there are the most new humans there. They have a way to safely transform into new humans, and they are also the main force against monsters!" Huo Anguo said with a smile.
"Then why not join forces, the Fortress and the City of Hope?"
"Do you think we don't want to? Do you think...those monsters will agree?"
"..."
Li Kui looked stunned and said sorry.
The cruelty and despair of a world with a pollution level of 70% was definitely not what he could see, think, or understand at the moment.
For a while.
The two faced each other, both speechless.
"You want to try my cigarette? It's so strong!"
"good!"
Li Kui took the cigarette, took a puff of it unfamiliarly, and immediately couldn't help but cough. It was really strong.
"Okay, it's time for me to go!"
Li Kui stood up, patted the sand on his trouser legs, and walked straight out.
"Brother Li Kui."
Stopped.
"Since you have nowhere to go, why not come to our Beacon of Hope as a guest."
Huo Anguo suddenly stood up and shouted towards Li Kui's back.
To go or not to go, that is the question.
Li Kui thought carefully, now is the sixth day, there are still twenty-four days...
"good!"
He agreed.
Huo Anguo nodded, said hello and walked towards the back of the factory.
