This musty smell gave Shen Xing goosebumps all over his body, but this was not fear, but an instinctive stress reaction.
The woman who stood still again suddenly moved her neck, but instead of turning her head to look over, she tilted her head, her body began to twist, and there was a sound in all the bones in her body.
Shen Xing glanced sideways again and saw that the woman's hands seemed to be twitching, and as her neck twisted, she made a knocking sound.
At this time, Shen Xing was ready to leave this area.
Just when she was about to take advantage of this opportunity to retreat, the woman suddenly took another step forward. At the same time, her twisting head finally turned in the direction of Shen Xing. The weird smile she saw outside just now was no longer on her face, but her expression was normal.
Even, with a slightly excited expression.
This distance is already very suitable for attacking, and Shen Xing is not prepared to wait for the Zhong Po to attack him first, because he is not sure whether the woman is Zhong Po I or Zhong Po III or above.
If you fall into passivity and the opponent is powerful, it will be a point of no return.
So when the woman turned her head and obviously wanted to do something to him, the silver pen in his hand had already been raised.
But at this moment, Shen Xing's body softened, and the woman's eyes turned dark green.
Wow!
The mental antibody of a progress bar disappeared instantly, but Shen Xing still couldn't use the strength, and slowly knelt down with his left leg on the ground.
The woman stretched out her left hand, and it was visible to the naked eye that the fingernails, which originally looked very normal, were now penetrated by more nails, growing densely from the back of her hand, fingertips, and other places.
These nails were as thin as cicada wings, sharp and translucent, and grew longer and longer, making the woman's hands look like they were covered with fish scales, pressing down on Shen Xing's head.
At this moment, Shen Xing was not only weak and weak, but also lacked the strength to press the cap of his pen.
He already knew very well that the kind-hearted woman in front of him was definitely a kind-hearted woman III or above.
Seeing that the nails were about to get closer, he gritted his teeth suddenly. Two of his mental antibodies were consumed again, and his body got some buffer. His thumb sent strength and he pressed the pen cap suddenly.
A high-intensity electric current surged out, hitting the body that Zhong Po was approaching with a crack.
The mother-in-law's body trembled, and her dark green eyes returned to normal in a very short period of time. Shen Xing's body took advantage of this opportunity to surge up with strength. He immediately stood up, his whole body covered in black. The protective membrane of the tendon quickly condensed, and the newly acquired skill after the increase in strength was used - jab.
The fist of his right hand clenched loudly, and he punched the grandmother fiercely.
The speed of this punch was so fast that even Shen Xing did not expect it. It was like light and shadow, and even the fist could not be seen. The saturation of the power of the fist made him feel like his whole body was about to explode.
A punch hit Zhong Po's shoulder, and she immediately retreated like lightning. She was so fast and powerful that even Shen Xing himself didn't feel much during the process. It wasn't until after the punch came out that he realized what he had just attacked. Sense of feedback.
I saw the mother-in-law's left shoulder slumped slightly, and she flew backwards, with a surprised look on her face.
But just in mid-air, her body suddenly became very light, and all the attack power was released lightly, and then she fell down as lightly as a kite.
After Zhong Po landed, she did not attack again, but just stood there, tilting her head and looking at Shen Xing.
She had delicate features. If her face wasn't too pale and had an inexplicable weirdness to it, the woman in front of her would actually be considered a beauty.
Shen Xing noticed that her left shoulder was still sunken, but it didn't seem to have any effect on her.
Not only that, there was a strange feeling in the right hand that Shen Xing had just clenched. When he looked down, he saw that the right hand that was originally wearing a black rubber glove had completely torn apart, revealing the skin covered with black veins and protective membranes.
Immediately, the hand began to swell visibly to the naked eye, growing larger and larger until it looked like a big black steamed bun.
Shen Xing looked up and found that Zhong Po had disappeared at some point, and there was nothing in front of her.
After a while, the protective film of the black tendons on his right hand began to break apart due to the swollen palm, but no sound was made. He could only see the black tendons breaking like branches one by one, and the protective film was also shattered.
Not long after, when the black tendons in this palm were almost broken, Shen Xing's palm stopped swelling and began to subside.
The weakness in his right arm came quickly and he could no longer lift it. The protective film of black tendons receded and he returned to normal.
Lines of text popped up in my mind at the same time.
[Encountered a fatal blow from Chanpo III! 】
[The protective membrane of the black tendon on the right arm has ruptured and is expected to recover in five days. 】
[Invoke an incidental skill without any modulating effect - jab. The jab modulating effect has been turned on, and the host can use it next time. 】
[Resist 1 fatal attack from Zhong Po III and gain 3 meme points. 】
[This week’s coup de grace, passed. 】
Shen Xing came back to his senses with lingering fear, this kind of mother-in-law's appearance appeared in his mind, and he murmured in his mouth.
"Haha, I remember your appearance now!"
He picked up the broken gloves on the ground, put them in his trouser pocket, and then turned around and walked to the cashier.
Although he had a head-on confrontation with Zhong Po III just now, he didn't make much noise, and Shen Xing didn't speak. He just stayed behind the shelf for a long time, which aroused the cashier's suspicion.
Now Shen Xing's only worry is whether the scene just now was captured by surveillance cameras.
You know, there is no display of the mother-in-law in the corner mirror, so there is a high probability that it will not be displayed on the monitor.
Therefore, if he is caught on surveillance, his suspicious behavior may expose the incident of the mother-in-law, and then reveal that Feifei attracts abnormal special physique, causing a lot of trouble.
"Excuse me, is there surveillance in our store?" Shen Xing asked the cashier.
The cashier did not answer for a moment, but glanced at Shen Xing's right hand, because although the swelling in his right hand was reducing at the moment, it had not been completely eliminated, and it was still a little red.
"What happened to your hand?" the cashier asked in surprise: "What happened on the shelf just now?"
While talking, she walked out of the checkout counter and looked behind the shelf where Shen Xing was standing just now, but saw nothing.
Shen Xing said: "It's nothing, I accidentally hit the shelf with my hand. By the way, please bring over the soy sauce, chicken essence and bagged dried vermicelli I just put on the second floor of the shelf."
The cashier brought the things over, and Shen Xing asked again: "Is there surveillance in the store?"
The cashier said: "The monitor has been broken for two days and has not been repaired yet. But if you accidentally hurt your hand just now, even if there is a monitor, it is useless. You are an adult, not a child, and you don't know how to watch." Is it okay? Besides, our shelves are all covered with soft edges, just to prevent children from hitting their heads. I’m convinced, how did you hit it like this? "
"That's okay." Shen Xing smiled and shook his head, knowing that the cashier had misunderstood, so he simply accepted the mistake and there was no need to explain anything.
At this time, the cashier quickly scanned the product barcode and said, "I'll give you a 10% discount on these items, a total of 16 yuan."
Shen Xing didn't say anything, scanned the QR code to pay, and left the supermarket with his things.
There was nothing unusual along the way. I took the elevator back home, knocked on the door, and called out Feifei's name twice. Then Feifei checked in the peephole behind the door and opened the door.
Shen Xing handed her the things he bought. Just now, he wanted to buy a box of milk for Feifei, but after meeting the nanny, his hands were injured and no longer easy to hold.
Feifei saw that Shen Xing looked a little strange and asked with concern: "Uncle Shen, are you okay?"
Shen Xing shook his head: "I bumped my hand on the supermarket shelf just now. It's okay. I'm going to apply some safflower oil."
"Be careful!" Feifei looked at his hand and felt it was slightly swollen and red. She warned him and turned around and entered the kitchen.
Oil smoke was rising in the kitchen at this time.
Shen Xing returned to the bedroom, took out the telescopic stick and two pens and put them away one by one, then threw away the other black rubber glove and looked at his right hand carefully.
The swelling grew quickly and disappeared quickly, but without the protective film of the black tendon as a buffer, this hand might have been useless.
Thinking of this, Shen Xing couldn't help but feel a little scared towards this kind of mother-in-law.
I checked my mental antibodies again. When I was still at the Sheriff's Department, I had to resist Zhou Zhiyong's unexpected mental attack, so Shen Xing's antibody energy was consumed by one progress bar.
When I encountered Chanpo III at close range just now, one progress bar was consumed again, and then in order to break free, two more progress bars were consumed before I could fight back.
Fortunately, I now have six layers of mental antibodies. After using up four layers, I still have two layers left.
However, these two layers of mental antibodies were still consumed by half of the second layer alive, and this was under normal contact with the other party.
Although he was able to free his hands to fight back, what Shen Xing didn't expect was that although Zhong Po III was temporarily knocked back after fighting back, the opponent seemed not to be seriously injured. Instead, his palm was almost crippled.
After all, this woman is too strong. Without the wood carving, it would be difficult to deal with her.
But just now, Shen Xing had carefully memorized the appearance of this woman, because in addition to observing her full face upstairs, he also observed the woman's side profile at close range in the supermarket, and compared some details.
If Shen Xing was asked to carve this woman out now, he would be able to make at least a nine-point-five out of ten.
Now it seems that Shen Xing is already sure of winning if he meets this woman next time, but this is not the case. In addition to the fact that he is not sure that this woman will appear next, the most important point is that if it is her next time, , once Shen Xing absorbed it with the carved wood carving, he could not guarantee that the next one would be Zhong Po I, Zhong Po IV, or even Zhong Po V.
If the latter two come, I'm afraid it won't be as easy to deal with as it is today. It will definitely be very dangerous by then, and it is very likely that it will lead to a desperate situation.
Because the higher the level of the Zhongpo, the stronger the strength will be. At present, Shen Xing cannot even deal with a Zhongpo III. He doesn’t know if he can survive to carve a Zhongpo IV if he absorbs the Zhongpo III and then recruits a Zhongpo IV. What about next time?
The answer is already obvious. If Zhong Po IV appears at this time, Shen Xing will not be given the opportunity to carve himself after seeing him. He will most likely succeed in killing him in one go.
So it's too early to absorb Chanpo III now. At least wait until you raise her for a while so that you have the ability to deal with Chanpo IV, and then it won't be too late to absorb it.
In addition, Shen Xing is still doubting that if the level of the anomaly exceeds the middle or upper level, it is hard to say whether it will still be effective if he directly uses the method of carving the opponent to absorb it.
After all, there are lessons learned from the past. In the past, reasoning about abnormal characteristics that could not enter the hierarchical sequence could lock the abnormality, but now characteristic reasoning has become an auxiliary method, not the main method.
But having said that, even if the wood carving is not used to absorb Sepo III for the time being, the wood carving still has to be made first.
This thing is now his life-saving means. If there is ever a time when he cannot deal with Zhong Po III and his life is in danger, he might still use it.
It's good to at least save your life for a week.
Shen Xing made up his mind to wait until the swelling on this palm subsided before starting to make the wood carving of Zhong Po III.
He tried to activate the body's black tendon protective film and found that except for the injured palm, which could not be covered, all other parts of his body were functioning well.
I went to the bathroom, washed my hands, and applied a layer of safflower oil to my right hand.
When eating, Feifei was afraid that it would be inconvenient for him to hold chopsticks with his right hand, so she specially prepared a spoon for Shen Xing and asked him to eat with his left hand.
While eating, Feifei shook her head, "Tell me, you went to the supermarket to buy something, and you ended up in such a collision! Uncle Shen, you have to know that your hands are the most valuable in our family at the moment, so you must protect them."
Shen Xing couldn't help but laugh, "I will definitely pay attention in the future. You can break the head and the feet, but you must not even scratch off a piece of skin on these hands!"
Feifei covered her mouth and laughed, and put more vegetables into Shen Xing's bowl.
After eating and resting, Shen Xing went to bed early because the day was too tiring.
Feifei saw that he went to bed early, so she quickly entered the small bedroom, closed the door and went to sleep after a while.
In fact, today's encounter with the nun is not without gain. At least Shen Xing gained 3 meme points. This meme value seems to be able to be used as a bonus for incidental skills, such as jab, and generates the so-called "additional modulus". Effect".
However, the meme value should be a consumable item and should not be used except in emergencies.
The two people, one large and one small, fell asleep quickly, and the room fell into silence.
That night.
Sheriff's Department, Solitary Room.
Zhou Zhiyong has been lying on the small bed with white sheets since he ended the call with Shen Xing. Except for peeing, he has always been lying on the bed.
The lights in the solitary room are always on. For fear of being affected by the words, all the ordinary staff originally arranged here have been asked to leave. Currently, only Zhao Wenbo, Li Naijing and Guo Tianzhi are on duty in turns.
However, Guo Tianzhi left after twelve o'clock because he wanted to contact the special investigation team in Heshan City to investigate other related anomalies similar to this newspaper anomaly in order to find a way to deal with Zhou Zhiyong.
Four o'clock in the morning.
Li Naijing, who had been watching for the first half of the night, fell asleep on the sofa in the monitoring room, while Zhao Wenbo, who looked bleary-eyed, tried his best to keep his eyes open and yawned repeatedly while sitting in front of the monitor and staring at the screen.
This is the time when a person is most sleepy, and Zhao Wenbo is no exception, even though he just fell asleep to replace Li Naijing.
In fact, it took Zhao Wenbo a long time to fall asleep in the first half of the night, and he still didn't get enough sleep.
Staring at the monitoring screen, he didn't realize that his eyes were half-open and half-closed. After a puff of light smoke rose that no one noticed, Zhao Wenbo lay directly on the table, and soon he heard a snoring sound.
After a while, the intercom on the side of Zhou Zhiyong's bed suddenly lit up and a voice came out.
"Turn the volume down so you can hear me."
Zhou Zhiyong was a little surprised. He slowly sat up, took the walkie-talkie, and turned the volume to the lowest level as instructed. He could only hear it when he got closer.
The voice that came out of the walkie-talkie just now seemed unfamiliar, and it seemed that he had heard it somewhere before. Zhou Zhiyong pressed the call button and asked, "Who are you?"
"Tell me about your transaction conditions." Obviously the other party was not prepared to expose himself, but went straight to the point.
Zhou Zhiyong was silent at first, and then repeated the transaction conditions proposed to Shen Xing during the day.
"I'm going to make some changes." The mysterious man on the other end of the intercom said.
"How to modify it?" Zhou Zhiyong asked with a frown.
…
About ten minutes later, Zhou Zhiyong had gotten up from the bed and stood behind the door of the solitary room.
The thick door was opened with a key and pushed slowly, revealing a wider crack. A set of Sheriff's clothes and a set of ordinary clothes were stuffed in from the outside.
There is also a note on the surface of the clothes that reads: Happy cooperation!
