"How's the situation?"
Yang Zhizhou just came back from the conference room and asked Yu Miao next to him.
Yu Miao: "Lan Yue's live broadcast room has been restored. They are not in danger now, but there is a half-human, half-spirit child beside them."
"Huh?" Yang Zhizhou looked at Yu Miao with a confused expression.
Yu Miao's expression remained unchanged, "The deputy director can watch the live broadcast first."
Just take a look and take a look...
——
The water is gurgling, the water dripping onto the rocks is crisp, and it is peaceful and quiet.
But suddenly, Mi Qing opened her eyes suddenly, followed the sound of water drops, and couldn't help but have a deep look in her eyes.
At the bottom of the Black River, there is water all around, so how can there be a crisp sound of water droplets?
She stood up and the water around her rippled.
Cen Shiyu, who was closest to her, noticed the movement. He opened his eyes and saw Mi Qing moving her right hand. The blood chain wrapped around her wrist exploded and floated around.
"What's wrong?"
Thinking something was going on, he woke the others up.
"The sound of water dripping," Mi Qing looked at the shattered altar. The dull texture of the altar is full of cracks, making it useless at first sight. But the crisp sound of water droplets actually came from the cracked lines.
There is weirdness.
Cen Shiyu immediately thought of the precautions he had taken when entering the Black River, not to resonate with the sound of water drops. He looked at the easily influenced Li Xiaotao, who frowned and was obviously uncomfortable.
"Li Xiaotao!"
He shouted in a deep voice, and Li Xiaotao woke up, "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong with you?" Cen Shiyu asked back.
Li Xiaotao: "I... seemed to have had a dream just now," but in the blink of an eye, he was woken up. She was not immersed in emotions. Apart from her breathing becoming more rapid, there was nothing unusual about her.
Cen Shiyou reminded, "Don't resonate with the sound of water drops, be alert."
"Oh," Li Xiaotao responded, exhaling a breath of thick air and becoming more energetic.
Cen Shiyu was still uneasy and gave Ding Mo a look. The latter understood and said he would pay attention to Li Xiaotao and Lan Yue.
At the same time, Mi Qing had already approached the altar to observe the gray runes. The runes are mysterious. If you are not studying this stuff, you can't understand them. After watching it for a long time, I just felt dizzy.
Mi Qing backed away, "Can this thing be taken away?"
Cen Shiyu: "Try it."
A storage bag can store anything.
Try it, you can get it. But the altar was too big and had to be broken into pieces.
"This is easy to handle," Mi Qing moved his hand, and the blood chain shot out. The large altar was torn into pieces, and Cen Shi and a few others began to collect the rubble. Only Zhao Yizhong was holding the child.
Suddenly, Zhao Yizhong took a breath.
When everyone saw it, the child bit Zhao Yizhong's arm after waking up. In just a second or two, blood was already visible.
"This kid is too fierce," Lan Yue stepped forward to help, but the kid didn't let go at all. His eyes were sinister and innocent, extremely contradictory.
Zhao Yizhong grinned after being bitten, but everyone did not dare to attack the child who was so angry.
Mi Qing couldn't see it, knocked him unconscious with a palm, and said coldly: "The prerequisite for showing mercy to others is to give priority to self-protection."
Zhao Yizhong was stunned for a moment. When he met Mi Qing's indifferent eyes, he came back to his senses and said seriously: "I understand."
Lan Yue groaned, "Sister Qing, we are..."
Cen Shiyu interrupted Lan Yue, "Self-protection protects not only yourself, but also your companions. Indiscriminate pity will only mislead yourself and others."
Lan Yue was silent, and Li Xiaotao looked melancholy, "My biological father used to beat me and my mother when we were young. My aunt couldn't stand it and stopped her once. As a result, my biological father broke one of his legs."
"My aunt was right about this, but she sacrificed a leg for it. Compassion without power cannot save others, but will only harm oneself. It would be better if it only harmed oneself, but I would be afraid of implicating others."
"My aunt was already pregnant at that time. She was just three months old, and she was gone. Not only did she lose a child, she also completely lost her qualifications to be a mother. Her family was also broken up."
So no matter what, she will never forgive that scumbag.
No one expected that Li Xiaotao would suddenly expose his family scandal. Lan Yue's discomfort was immediately replaced by indignation, "This is too much, Xiaotao, don't be sad..."
She wasn't very good at comforting people, so she looked to others for help.
Without waiting for anyone to comfort her, Li Xiaotao adjusted her mood and said, "He didn't end up well either. He is still in prison undergoing rehabilitation." She was waiting for him to come out.
It's only two years, almost. Now, she is no longer a child who could only be beaten unilaterally. She was looking forward to the day when father and daughter would meet again.
Mi Qing has never asked about Li Xiaotao's experience, so this is the first time he knows about it. She thought for a while and said: "On the first day I returned to Li's house, my brother took an ashtray and tried to hit me on the head. Unfortunately, I pressed his head directly on the coffee table and hit it three times. The blood was broken. My father wanted to slap me to show his identity when he disagreed with me, but I kicked him so hard that he ducked."
"As for Li Xin, you have also seen that I bullied her even more severely in the Li family."
As for Cao Laishu, this person is not worth mentioning. Mi Qing will take back the humiliation she suffered when she was eighteen years old from Cao Laishu. Even though that hasn't happened yet.
"...How can this be considered bullying? They deserve it." Li Xiaotao immediately perked up after hearing this, "Sister Qing, go out and teach me a few moves." She wanted to learn the kind of move that hurts people but can't find the injury. .
"With pleasure," Mi Qing nodded in agreement.
"Ahem," Cen Shiyu coughed and returned to the topic, "In short, the six of us are a whole. Before anyone acts, he should not only think about himself, but also think about his companions."
He glanced at Mi Qing, who was disapproving, and added, "Of course, our sister Qing has the ability to clean up the mess. But sister Qing, there are no absolutes in everything in this world, we have to avoid eventualities."
Mi Qing and Cen Shiyu looked at each other. The latter understood the former's disapproval, but still wanted a verbal guarantee.
As for Mi Qing, he has just adapted to the current cooperation mode of several people. He has no intention of changing teammates in a short time, so he said perfunctorily: "Oh."
Cen Shiyu said: "..." I always felt that it was the same as her not responding.
Unable to continue this topic, he skipped it, "This kid is out of control now. Knock him out when he wakes up."
Zhao Yizhong nodded hurriedly this time, "I understand."
Don't start another dispute because of this child, it won't be worth it.
After resting for an hour, they had to move on.
"Do you want to continue moving forward? According to the coordinates of the Black River Void Spirit, the next thing you encounter is the two-headed fish," Ding Mo changed the subject.
Cen Shiyu: "I came here just for it. I'm afraid the two-headed fish in 'Black River' is of a higher level and is better for Sister Qing."
"Then let's go."
Let's go.
A group of six people, plus the unconscious child, continued on their way. But they didn't notice that the quiet group of stones behind them moved again.
The remaining altar stones began to come together, as if an invisible hand was stacking them into a new altar of miraculous craftsmanship.
Familiar and unfamiliar runes appeared on the rough stone surface, and the brand-new altar began to operate again.
Mi Qing and the others who left did not know this bizarre scene...
