"Come on, tell me!" Lao Yang squatted on the ground to check on Xiao Liu and asked me to tell him my solution.
"Uncle Yang, did you see those people lying motionless in the shed? Before that thing was caught by us, everyone looked just like normal people. Except for their dull expressions, they were doing things very well. Quickly, all the people are actually controlled by the thing we caught. His ability is not only medical skills, but also some things that I can't explain. He drove steel nails into the heads of those people, Those people just lost their self-awareness, but their ability to act was not reduced at all. So..."
"Do you want to put that thing out?" Lao Yang was sweating profusely, interrupted my persuasion, and hit the nail on the head with one sentence.
I nodded, "Maybe he can help us..."
"But..." Xiwu's worry was interrupted by Lao Yang.
"No matter what, now a dead horse has to be treated as a living horse doctor! You don't know the situation outside. Those refugees seem to be... all infected! They pounced on our soldiers who were in charge of order and bit them. Every soldier's face was bitten. Come down! I think they are all crazy... We just managed to lock up all those refugees, and we must find a solution quickly! Xiyuan, I leave this matter to you!" Lao Yang slapped him hard. Holding my shoulder...
"Bring that safe to the corridor now!" Lao Yang shouted into the intercom.
Now that the matter has come to this, all we can do is try our best. Xiwu shook his head and rubbed his temples and said, "I really admire you... My injury is not healed yet..."
"Don't worry! I won't let you get hurt again!" I blurted out. Xiwu was stunned for three seconds, bit her lip and asked, "Before we let him out, we should make arrangements in advance to prevent him from running away. ”
We searched this floor one by one, and finally found an empty room. It was a square room with no windows. It was a completely dark room!
I brought the searchlight in and placed it at the door, illuminating the room brightly!
"Wen Na, just stand at the door holding the thing that absorbs the spirit body. Chaoyang, just guard this lamp! Where there is light, he will have nowhere to hide! Xiwu... this time you wait outside. We, you are still injured, I’m not worried.”
"What's wrong with you? I won't hold you back!" Xiwu said with a stubborn look on his face.
"What I'm worried about is your body. What if you open the wound? You'll have random thoughts. I don't think you're holding you back!"
Chaoyang frowned and looked at me and Xiwu and said, "Okay, I can't stand listening anymore. You guys have to wait until the serious business is done to talk about love..."
"Chaoyang!" Xiwu pretended to hit Chaoyang, but Lao Yang and Ada had already come over holding the safe.
"Xiyuan, do you really want to do this? How about I stay here to help you? After all, I am also someone who has fought against sandworms. That thing was so powerful when it was just released. Can you guys handle it?" Ada asked. The safe was placed on the ground and he asked me worriedly. He spoke intermittently, and his left eye kept squeezing, as if he had a cramp.
"What's wrong with your eyes?" I asked Ada.
"I don't know, maybe... I'm infected too..."
"Don't talk nonsense. Everything will be fine. Just wait outside. I know what this thing wants."
"Should I keep the one from the head office?" Lao Yang said.
"Uncle Yang, you'd better leave here. What if... I mean, if something bad happens to you here, what will you do if there are so many people outside? They need you..."
I talked hard and finally persuaded Lao Yang and Ada to leave. I asked them to leave the building. No one else was allowed to enter the building until I left.
"Master? Master? We are hiding in this building. Do you need us to come over and help?"
Liu Liu, their hearing and perception systems are very keen, and they should have a clear understanding of our situation here.
"I really need your help, but you are enough."
Within a minute, Liuyou appeared in front of me, "Liuyou, take Xiwu away and protect her."
"I do not go!"
"Yoo!"
Liuyou only obeyed my orders, and without any explanation, she gently hooked Xiwu's collar with her tentacles and put her on her back.
"Are you ready?"
"alright!"
"Ready!"
Wen Na and Chaoyang responded at the same time. I turned the door handle of the safe, took out the old camera, and handed it to Wen Na...
Black smoke quickly filled the small room. Chaoyang grabbed the edge of the searchlight and was always alert to the movement of the black smoke. Wen Na also remained motionless, always ready to deal with...
Soon, the black smoke condensed into a gray shadow. The shadow seemed to become smaller, less than one meter high, with all four limbs and five features, and an expression of resentment! When he saw me in front of him, he immediately bared his teeth and glared at me!
"Don't be excited...don't be nervous...I'll really let you out this time!"
"Let me out?" The muscles on the black shadow's face were contracting vigorously, and his expression was constantly changing. Only his eyes were sinister.
"Yes, we decided to release you, but there are conditions..."
"Huh, I know how good you can be!"
"We want to ask you a favor..." I slowed down and tried to sound more sincere...
"Ask me for help? Or threaten me?" He said to Wen Na, who was holding the instrument.
"Before we reach an agreement, we have to be a little defensive, right? After all, you are indeed very strong, and there is nothing we can do about it..."
Gray Shadow seemed to take advantage of the compliment. He straightened his back, put his hands behind his back, and looked at me sideways, "Tell me about your conditions."
When I was just setting it up, I was thinking about how to negotiate with this thing. I remembered what the puppet's spirit body said to me, and after thinking for a while, I continued, "With your magical powers, you should have foreseen the arrival of the end of the world. You The original purpose of building this place, no matter what the reason, one of them should be to provide a little shelter for the displaced people in the last days..."
"Huh." Gray Shadow snorted, but did not refute, so I continued...
"Now, something more terrible has happened, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of asking you for help. It might be because of radiation or something else. The cannibalistic victims in the town were infected with a virus. The virus spreads in the brain. Our current medical equipment and technology are unable to deal with this virus, and it is spreading very quickly. If we don’t deal with it quickly, I’m afraid..."
"What does what you are talking about have to do with me?" Gray Shadow said scornfully.
"Because of worship and belief, gods exist, and gods have magical powers. You should know this better than me. If you don't help, the worst thing is that I will put you in this box before I die. Throw it into a volcano."
"You dare!" Gray Shadow screamed, almost piercing my eardrums.
"How dare you do this... But," I changed my voice, "If you can solve this problem, things will become very different! Don't you want to become a god in the new era? To cure diseases and eliminate disasters, This is the first kind of magical power you should show."
"How difficult is it? But it depends on whether I am willing or not."
"As long as you promise to deal with the virus, we can let you out."
"Catch me after I finish helping you solve the problem? This is such a good plan!"
"No, as long as you promise not to rob other people's bodies again, once the matter is resolved, we will continue to let you stay here. There are many refugees here now. If you save them all, won't they regard you as a god? You can use your abilities to manage this place very well."
"It sounds like a good deal..." Gray Shadow raised his head, "But I also have conditions."
As soon as I saw that there was a show, I quickly asked, "What are the conditions?"
"You have protection, and I also need some protection. What if I do everything well and you regret it?"
"I can guarantee you that this kind of thing will never happen!"
"Come on, I don't believe in any nonsense about guarantees! I must have real guarantees, otherwise, you can continue to lock me up."
"Then tell me, what are your conditions?"
"I don't have a body and can't do anything, so I want you to give me your body."
"No!" Wen Na was the first to object! "Absolutely not! Don't even think about it!"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just using it temporarily. When the matter is resolved and you fulfill your promise, I will return your body to you." Gray Shadow's eyes gleamed, and he took two steps closer to me and asked, "What do you think?"
