Chapter 550: Meeting after more than fifty years
"Are you sure there are really no problems with the people here? They won't want to arrest you again, right?" Li Wenxi asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we are all our own people here. I have confirmed it, there will be no problem."
At this time, Li Wenxi and Xu Ying were in a high-rise building.
Moreover, it was exactly what Li Wenxi had seen before, one of the three tallest towering buildings in the city.
The two of them were in the elevator at the moment, rising towards the upper floor at a high speed.
The entire high-rise building has two hundred floors, and the height is estimated to be eight to nine hundred meters. The elevator is still on the outside of the building. Through the transparent elevator body, you can see the rapidly falling city outside.
"Then...then I believe you. A person who has lived for hundreds of years should not mess up..." Li Wenxi lay on the transparent glass and looked outside, while muttering, "But why? You can go to such a high floor, why don’t you change places? You can’t escape here even if you want to.”
"A person who is hundreds of years old..." Xu Ying twitched the corner of her mouth slightly and said dissatisfied, "Can you please stop talking about me like that? Although I am indeed hundreds of years old, my body is very young!"
"Yes, yes... which floor are we going to?" Li Wenxi looked at the elevator floor. In such a short time, the elevator had already risen nearly a hundred floors.
"Why do you look like my brother!" Xu Ying complained, and then said, "Of course it's the top level. If I bring you here, I will naturally take you directly to the most important place and discuss with the most important people. ! ”
"Who... is that? What is it doing here? Can you tell me?" Li Wenxi came over and asked in a low voice.
She was suddenly teleported to this building by Xu Ying just now, and she got on the elevator before she even figured out what was going on.
She always felt that she was being spied on and eavesdropped on in the elevator, so she subconsciously lowered her voice.
"Hehe, you might be surprised. This is the landmark building of the family in charge of military power in the human base area." Xu Ying was also influenced by Li Wenxi and whispered with a snicker.
"Military...military?" Li Wenxi was shocked, "Do they have a lot of high-tech weapons?"
"Hmm... it's indeed quite a lot." Xu Ying nodded her lips and said as she thought, "After all, this is the family that my brother supports. In order to become a force against the alien invaders on the ground in the future, he is No less effort.”
"Your brother..." Li Wenxi was slightly startled at first, then realized that she was talking about the Xu Xin who had disappeared, and then became a little worried, "Then now that your brother is gone, they are so strong, can you guarantee that they... ”
"Don't worry, their interests and mine are the same." Xu Ying was very confident, "I had a relationship with their generation of family heads fifty or sixty years ago. We were very familiar with each other at that time. We were so familiar with each other that even my elder brother I’m going to be jealous, hehe, but he’s almost eighty now, right? I can’t believe how he looks...”
Li Wenxi blinked.
This is really a bit strange.
I don’t know how that guy would feel when he saw Xu Ying, who still had the face of a girl.
"Is this... a military base?" Li Wenxi asked, looking at the elevator display that had jumped to more than 150 floors.
"How is it possible? Who would build a military base on such a high building?" Xu Ying shook her head.
"Then here..."
"Oh, you'll find out when you go up there. Don't be too nervous, sister-in-law. This is just a... um, landmark building?"
As she spoke, she pointed to two other tall buildings outside.
"Like those two buildings, they symbolize the three pillars of the family. In fact, these three high-rise buildings basically have this function and have basically no effect. They are even opened as tourist attractions during the peak season."
"There is also this kind of operation..."
"But it's not the peak season now, it's not open, and in terms of confidentiality, this place is very strict. After all, although it is a symbol, it must be done well, right?" Xu Ying knocked on the transparent glass of the elevator, "Don't look at it It’s transparent to us, but we can’t be seen from the outside. It’s a single-sided glass.”
"Then what we go up to see is..."
"Ding!"
There was a crisp sound and the elevator door opened.
"We'll find out after you come and see." Xu Ying pulled Li Wenxi out of the elevator.
As soon as the elevator came out, there was a door. Xu Ying reached out and pushed the door open, pulling Li Wenxi in.
As the highest floor of a building that is eight to nine hundred meters high, the area here is not large.
Although the area of the first floor is not small, the top is in the shape of a spire. From about 700 meters in height, the area begins to shrink layer by layer. Finally, at the top floor, there is only an area of less than 100 square meters. .
The style here is very serious, with a huge long solid wood table surrounded by a circle of solid wood chairs, a huge white curtain hanging on the wall, and several projectors on the ceiling.
It looks like a serious conference room.
At this time, two people were sitting on the main seat and the auxiliary seat of the conference table.
One of them is an old man with gray hair, deep wrinkles on his forehead, and two straight and thick eyebrows that are already pale, giving people a strong sense of majesty, a feeling of being in a high position all year round.
And in the passenger seat was indeed a girl of the same age as the two of them, who looked somewhat similar to the old man.
Even when she was sitting there, she stood upright and had a pretty face. Her short straight black hair only reached her earlobes, but her face was expressionless and looked very serious.
Seeing Xu Ying pushing the door open and entering, the two people sitting there also stood up.
The originally majestic old man showed an expression of joy and surprise: "Yingying, it's really you, you really... haven't changed at all."
Xu Ying's eyes widened: "Oh my God, you... you have become so old!"
Although fifty or sixty years have passed in this world, it has not been that long for Xu Ying.
She came here through time. The last time she saw the person in front of her, to her, it was just...
Just a few days ago.
"It's been fifty-five years, and I'm eighty years old. How can I not age?" the old man sighed, "I never thought I could see you again before I die."
"Wow..." Although Xu Ying had already had psychological expectations, she still couldn't accept it. She looked at the girl next to the old man, "This can't be..."
"This is my granddaughter, her name is Wei Shishi." The old man introduced the girl next to Xu Ying, who also nodded slightly and leaned forward.
"Oh my God, you have a granddaughter!" Xu Ying said in surprise.
Although she had done this kind of thing across time many times, it was really shocking to see people she knew well grow old and have descendants.
"Haha, it's been more than fifty years." The old man looked at Li Wenxi, who had been silent and looked at him curiously, and smiled: "Is this the person you said can help us get through this difficult time? ”
"Yes, this is my sister-in-law!" Xu Ying immediately pulled her to her side and introduced her with her head raised.
"Ah, hello!" Li Wenxi responded quickly, "My name is Li Wenxi."
"Hello. Your sister-in-law...?" The old man was surprised, "Isn't your brother already..."
"Yeah, hey, it's a shame that you still remember what happened more than fifty years ago." Xu Ying said with a smile, "It's a long story, but she is indeed the person my brother likes, and she also Having special abilities can definitely help you.”
When the old man saw the very young-looking girl next to Xu Ying, he didn't have much confidence.
But now that I heard that she was Xu Xin's sweetheart, her already cloudy eyes suddenly lit up: "That's great, Miss Li Wenxi, we have been waiting for you to help us."
"Ah, the old man can just call me Wen Xi!" Li Wenxi immediately waved her hands and said, "I'm just an ordinary person."
The girl Wei Shishi, who had been silent beside the old man, looked at Li Wenxi with a different look.
She said: "Grandpa said that more than fifty years ago, the girl named Xu Ying told him that in about fifty or sixty years, we will usher in a turning point in our destiny. Is that right now?"
She has always had no expression, and even when she spoke now, her tone was emotionless, as if she were a lawyer doing business, solemn and serious.
He is more serious than the old man who looks much more dignified.
She was so serious that Li Wenxi didn't know what tone to use to speak to her. She always felt that if she spoke too casually, the other person would be angry...
"Well, it should be now, right?" Xu Ying said ambiguously.
"It should be..." Wei Shishi frowned, "Grandpa has been waiting for your news for more than fifty years, and the result is just that it should be?"
"Shishi." The old man stopped the girl from questioning, "Don't be so rude."
"Why are you doing this all of a sudden?" Xu Ying was suddenly confronted in an unfriendly manner, and she was slightly dissatisfied. "Why do I feel like you have some grudge against me? Did I do something?"
"...You left suddenly back then, did you know...!"
"Shishi!" The old man's tone suddenly became serious, causing Wei Shishi to shut her mouth.
She turned her head away slightly and stopped talking.
Li Wenxi looked at the girl, blinked her eyes, and pursed her lips. She felt like she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.
This Wei Shishi seems to be very serious and classy, but when he speaks...
It gives people the stubborn feeling of an immature little girl.
"I left suddenly?" Xu Ying was a little confused, "I should have said hello before I left, right? How can it be considered a sudden departure."
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore." The old man was a little embarrassed. He glanced at his granddaughter who stopped talking next to him, and then said, "Let's talk about business."
He looked at Li Wenxi: "Excuse me, how can this Miss Wenxi help us overcome this difficulty?"
……
On the ground, while Shi Wanyun was telling the story, Lou Fei'er came back.
In her arms was a little guy who was curled up and sleeping.
As soon as she came back, she saw Zeng Tao, who was sitting next to the World Tree, feeling depressed.
"Why are you sitting here? Where is Xu Xin?" Seeing Zeng Tao hitting the ground with the pebbles in her hand, Lou Fei'er asked a little strangely, "What are you doing? Why do you feel a little angry?"
"Of course I'm angry!" Zeng Tao immediately stood up and said bitterly, "That bastard Xu Xin took over my tree house and refused to let me in. He didn't know who Shi Wanyun was in my tree house. Doing something!”
"...Huh?" Lou Feier was stunned for a moment, then widened her eyes, "What do you mean? Is it so exciting?"
"The two of them must be doing some shameful things inside now! I heard the noise!" Zeng Tao snorted, "If you are interested, just go and take a look."
"Then I'll go and take a look now!... What a ghost." Lou Fei'er rolled her eyes at Zeng Tao, "You think I'm stupid, right? How could Xu Xin do that kind of thing with that woman? So what happened? Did Shi Wanyun agree?”
"Why wouldn't he do that kind of thing?"
"?Am I worse than that Shi Wanyun?"
"...Hmph, you are smart."
Zeng Tao was ordered to come out by Xu Xin, and the contract was still with her. She didn't dare to run back by herself. She originally wanted to take Lou Fei'er to have a look, but the plan failed.
He walked to Lou Fei'er, reached out and touched Coco in her arms, and at the same time told Lou Fei'er what had just happened.
"That guy has also been injected with medicine..." Lou Fei'er showed a teasing smile, "It seems that someone hasn't been injected yet."
"...Hmph!" Zeng Tao gritted his teeth, "I am sacrificing myself for the safety of World Tree! World Tree cannot live without my protection!"
"Okay, um... I'll just wait a moment." Lou Fei'er also gently rubbed the little guy's head in her arms, letting the little guy purr comfortably in his sleep, "I also have something to do. Tell him, however, Shi Wanyun’s side of things is more important.”
"Huh? What's the matter with you?"
"It's just that... I found a good place." Lou Feier smiled mysteriously and touched Coco's little head in her arms again, "Thanks to this little guy."
……
In the tree house, Shi Wanyun was already telling her story.
"Soon, we came to the so-called baptismal place."
At this point, Shi Wanyun's eyes suddenly trembled, and Xu Xin saw that her originally relaxed hands were now clenched.
"There, I saw the true face of the master they said."
The true face of the master, that is, the true face of the alien invader.
Xu Xin narrowed her eyes slightly and continued to listen to her story.
The place of baptism is a place... similar to an indoor hot spring.
When you push the door open, you will be greeted by warm mist.
This space is very large, with a height of nearly ten meters and an area of several hundred square meters. On the walls in all directions, countless pale red water flows like waterfalls into the large pool in the center of the area.
The mist is also light red and filled with a refreshing fragrance.
Shi Wanyun's eyes moved.
She was very familiar with this smell. It was the scent of diluted red mist.
This baptism... does this require them to mutate their blood patterns first?
There are thirteen people in the room.
Like Shi Wanyun, they both work in pairs.
It's always an old member leading a new member.
It is very easy to distinguish the new members from the old members. The old members have more or less inhuman characteristics on their bodies, while the new members have none at all.
Moreover, the clothes worn by these six newcomers were exactly the same as those Shi Wanyun was wearing at this time.
She had been wearing this dress since she woke up. It should have been changed for her on the 228th.
What creeped her out the most was that each of these newcomers had rosy and excited faces, with a bit of fanaticism in their eyes.
It seemed that the baptism that was about to take place was the wish they had been looking forward to, and this wish was about to come true.
It's like a cult scene.
...What on earth is going on with this baptism? Should she run away?
Or should we just continue like this?
……No.
Among the thirteen people, there was one person who was alone, a woman who looked very mature and plump.
She has no obvious mutant features and looks like an ordinary person.
But this woman felt very dangerous to Shi Wanyun, much more dangerous than the advanced mutant creatures outside!
Moreover, looking at the extremely respectful attitude of No. 228, you can know how high this woman's status is!
no.
This woman is too dangerous, so let's just follow their procedures for the time being.
At least now, she won't mutate into a monster.
The mature woman looked around at the people around her, clapped her hands and said, "In about ten minutes, the baptismal pool will be ready. Now that you are all here, let's start preparations."
"Yes!"
The others responded neatly, and then No. 228 on the side reached out to touch the back of Shi Wanyun's neck.
"Ah!" Shi Wanyun exclaimed softly.
Because, under the action of No. 228, the entire dress she was wearing fell off to the ground.
Suddenly, there was no trace of hair on her body.
For a moment, Shi Wanyun felt insecure.
But fortunately, they are all women here...
No. 228 took out a wet white cloth from somewhere and began to wipe Shi Wanyun's body.
Shi Wanyun had a strange expression and wanted to ask too many things.
But remembering what No. 228 said before, telling her not to speak, she glanced at the mature woman who had noticed her and frowned at her. She could only hold back for now, relax her body, and let No. 228 wipe it. her body.
Everyone else around him acted like this.
And the faces of the newcomers were even more excited.
Shi Wanyun discovered that two newcomers had blood-colored lines on their bodies. They should have mutated their blood lines a long time ago, and these blood lines were flickering slightly in the light red mist.
Soon, Shi Wanyun's entire body was wiped clean.
"The time has come, let's get into the pool." The mature woman said.
Entering the pool...
Shi Wanyun was led by No. 228 to the edge of the light red pool, and then...
Before she could react, she was pushed directly into the pool!
With a "plop", he fell directly into the water.
And at this moment, she felt the fierce heat entering her body crazily from all the pores up and down her body!
In an instant, her face turned red, and she suddenly raised her head from the pool, panting heavily.
As she panted, the surrounding faint red mist could not help but be inhaled in large amounts.
"What's the matter with you?" At this time, a mature woman's voice came from her head.
She looked up and saw the mature woman standing by the pool, looking down at her, and...
A dangerous red light flashed in his eyes.
"No. 228, what's going on with her?" The woman's voice turned slightly cold. (End of chapter)
