Chapter 439 Now, I’m the general
Lynch found himself back where it all started.
It was the small forest where the four of them entered the memories, not far from where they appeared. When the four of them first landed, they might have seen this ancient tree from a distance. I just didn't realize it at the time.
Lin Qi looked at the familiar woods and realized that it might make sense for the four of his party to enter memories from here.
A fantasy emerged in my mind. Perhaps in real history, Ms. Stephen Swain invited her tribe to stop her father’s crazy behavior, and purified herself as well. In the end, after the ghoul left the city, he was He escaped from the city through this tunnel and stood on the edge of the woods looking at the city where his daughter died. And this memory may have started from that time and place.
It’s a wonderful fantasy that can never be proven, but Lynch thinks it’s probably true. Fortunately, he had this trip today, otherwise even if the four of them come here to visit their heads every day, they wouldn’t have thought of it. Not far away, there is a place leading to the Demon Cave...
? ? ?
Holy shit! Human face fruit.
Lin Qi screamed and rushed out, heading straight to the place where the human face fruit was planted.
But don't let anything happen. If you are not far away and are blown up by your own attack, it will be the stupidest era joke in the fifth era.
After running fifty or sixty meters, I found the planting site. It was really not far away. Fortunately, there were sparse trees blocking it. The explosion did not affect these fragile mysterious plants. The four people's The head is still hanging on the branch and fluttering in the wind.
“What nonsense.”
Officer Natalie, who was chasing after him, stepped on Lynch's toes very skillfully and crushed him. It was obvious that the fruit had not yet been harvested, so how could he be fluttering in the wind?
But it is growing very well, and it should mature smoothly tomorrow. It depends on whether this last flower of hope can bear the fruit of life.
The two took the opportunity to check all five plants, and then they safely returned to the battlefield.
Lynch made an okay gesture to Diana and Judy who were guarding the doctor. Hearing the footsteps, Dr. Swain also raised his head.
“The injury is too serious and cannot be saved.” Dr. Swain lamented regretfully, “Several of his main blood vessels were bitten off. Although you treated him in time, the method was not good enough. Professional, the broken blood vessels were not repaired in advance. Now his brain has fallen into paralysis, and he is only one step away from death. "
His~~ If he dies, the risk I took will be in vain.
Lin Qi's face was a little ugly, but he recalled some measures taken in the hospital in his previous life and asked nervously: "It doesn't matter whether he can be saved or not. Can we guarantee that he will not die? There is no need to keep delaying it, just wait until tomorrow."
< br>"Huh?"
Lynch hurriedly explained his speculation: "I believe that... the other party must have a way to control the time of the outbreak. As long as he ensures that he will be safe before the outbreak of the plague tonight. If we stay alive, the other party will probably not dare to let the plague break out immediately, and we will have enough time to get everyone to take the medicine.”
And if we get the Human Face Fruit tomorrow, everything will be easier. Of course, this was what Lynch was thinking, but he didn't say it out loud.
The four ladies didn’t understand Lynch’s plan until now. If you think about it carefully, it does make sense.
“You have to believe in the ability of a professional therapist.” Dr. Swain clapped his hands and stood up, smiling confidently, “I can’t bring him back to life, but I guarantee it within three to five days. It’s okay if he doesn’t die, but it’s just a matter of dragging him through tonight. It’s easy. Come on, let’s take Uncle Jackson back to the fortress.”
Oh, four eyes were fixed on Lin Qi's face at the same time. Tsk, don't you guys have such a tacit understanding? Especially the two of you, shouldn't you be mortal enemies? Why are you so united now?
Lin Qi curled his lips, resigned himself to carrying Jackson, who was nearly brain-dead, and the group of people returned to the city in a mighty manner.
The city gates have been sealed, and the city is under full martial law. Citizens must stay at home. The surviving travelers are gathered in vacant barns in the city center for unified supervision, and the authorities provide daily necessities.
Except for soldiers with missions, everyone must stay at home and are strictly prohibited from going out. Soldiers have the right to kill anyone who goes out for any reason.
Only heavily armed soldiers were left on the streets of the city, as well as a few corpses of those who had been forced out. The citizens discovered that the soldiers were really merciless this time and stayed at home honestly. The whole city became empty.
This is what Lynch relied on to escape danger just now, but no matter what era, there are always privileged people.
For example, Lynch and his group.
Doctor Swain is now the savior of the city. Not only did no one dare to stop her when she went out, but someone also escorted them to the east gate, opened the city gate, and guarded it respectfully. Then she was frightened. Jump.
Why was he fine when he went out, but turned into a mud monkey when he came back? And what was that loud noise just now? Also, why are there two more people coming back? However, with the order of Knight Terry, the soldiers did not dare to ask any more questions. They just glanced at the man on Lynch's shoulders in confusion. Fortunately, the city lord was covered by Lynch with his cloak, so that the soldiers could not see him. Face, otherwise it would be even more troublesome to explain, but now it is much easier. The soldiers directly opened the city gate and let the group in, and then escorted everyone back to the military camp.
The entrance to the fortress is surrounded by ropes and pillars to form a maze-like space, with thin passages winding around. You can clearly see the fortress at a glance, and it takes at least seven or eight minutes to walk around the maze. , reminded Lynch of the waiting area at the Universal Studios in his hometown.
This is a little trick he learned from some not-so-pleasant experiences in his previous life, and he has successfully reproduced it in this world. At this time, the 'maze' is lined with people waiting to receive medicine. , there were hundreds of people lined up in the small space, and under the supervision of the soldiers, the queue was not chaotic at all.
However, there were some complaints in the team at this time. It is said that it has been a long time since a new batch of citizens were let in to receive medicine. A group of people stood in place for more than half an hour. Everyone was anxious, fearing that they would not be able to receive medicine. The people in the platoon muttered from time to time, worried that something had happened inside, otherwise why would it suddenly become so strange?
Yeah, it’s really strange, why didn’t the medicine suddenly stop being distributed?
The group of people looked at the person in charge of making the medicine with expressionless expressions.
Dr. Swain stuck out his tongue, pulled up his hat to cover his face, lowered his head and walked back to the fortress from the side. When he saw Dr. Swain finally coming back, Terry, who was relieved, almost cried, but when he saw Lynch shoulder again On that one, he couldn't even cry anymore. Without bothering to ask any more questions, let alone the citizens queuing up, he quickly found a clean barracks for the city lord and asked Dr. Swain to take precautions to preserve the city lord's freshness.
The group of people was immediately kicked out, leaving only Dr. Swain and Miss Diana inside. Ten minutes later, the two walked out.
There is a strange crystal floating in the heart of the city lord. The crystal is constantly rising and falling, and the rhythm is synchronized with the beating of the city lord's heart. There is also a strange insect lying on the face. As the pores on the back of the insect shrink rhythmically, The city lord's chest also continued to rise and fall.
It is indeed the dark ages, even ventilators and pacemakers are so weird.
But no matter what, at least the condition of the city lord has stabilized. Then Dr. Swain took Miss Diana straight to the dispensing room and continued the work of forgetting sleep and food, while Lynch and others were left to guard the city lord. in the ward.
Whether the plan can succeed and whether the other party will stop the outbreak of the plague will be revealed tonight.
Lynch turned his eyes in the direction of Dr. Swain's house with a calm expression.
I have the key props in hand, now I am the general.
