Chapter 28 On the way
“Ouch.”
On the ground.
Zhugefu clutched his chest in pain.
He wailed and spoke to Xie Shen with difficulty: "Are you a reformer?"
"That's not right."
He said, and then frowned: "I just scanned you with a metal detector, and there are no traces of artificial modification on your body. And judging from your facial expression, It’s not hard to see that you don’t feel the ‘phantom pain’ at all.”
The more he talked, the more incredible he felt: “So how do you go so fast?”
“ And your strength.”
“Just kicking me can do so much damage. This is too exaggerated!”
Those who do research seem to be more or less abnormal.
For example, Li Xiu, who has low emotional intelligence
Obviously has a terrifyingly high intelligence, but he doesn’t do well in the space station and can barely be considered a middle-level person.
Another example is Zhuge Fu at this moment.
Normally he looks like a normal person, but once it involves unknown areas, he will show unprecedented fanaticism.
——He was curious about Xie Shen, who possessed ‘extraordinary power’.
After the underground man dies, although he will not be imprisoned in the tower prison, he will be infected with the incurable disease of 'death addiction'.
So the underground people are also afraid of death.
But facing Xie Shen, Zhugefu showed that he didn't care about his life or death at all. There was fanaticism in his eyes.
In the laboratory.
Just when the atmosphere became tense, there were sudden sounds of footsteps outside the door. It was obvious that someone had gathered after hearing the sound of fighting.
Not long after, the visitor rushed into the room and shouted: "Brother, are you okay?"
"I'm okay, I'm okay!"
Zhuge Fu wiped it Wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth, he said calmly: "I just accidentally knocked over the experimental table. You are busy with your work."
"That's okay." The person outside the room breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this and said: "Brother, you Pay attention to yourself!”
There was another burst of rustling footsteps.
After confirming that Zhugefu was safe and sound, the people gathered outside the laboratory gradually dispersed.
Until this moment, Xie Shen finally spoke slowly: "Aren't you afraid that I will punch you to death?"
"Afraid." Zhugefu said calmly: "But it was really me before. What I did was wrong, so you should hit me."
As he said that, he looked at the destroyed 'infrasonic arrester' under him and said, "It's a pity for this equipment. Let's fix it. , it will probably take a lot of time.”
Xie Shen said displeased: "Then it's not my fault."
"It's really not your fault."
With a hint of apology, Zhuge Fu smiled bitterly at Xie Shen and said: " Brother, I really had no choice but to make this decision.”
“Although I collected the suspected ‘curse sound’ with the arrester, I have never been able to confirm it.”
"Because I can't verify it through experiments."
"Then I was stuck at this hurdle, and I kept waiting for several years."
"Finally, you are here."
Zhugefu explained to Xie Shen: "You are the only normal person who has come underground in these years, so I have no choice."
"Whether you agree or not, I can only use you for experiments."
>"Although it is a bit unethical to do this, my research is related to the future of all underground people."
"So I have to do it."
This.
Although Xie Shen is not the Holy Mother, he is by no means a ruthless person.
Seeing Zhu Gefu express his difficulties, he softened his tone and said: "Generally speaking, how long does it take for a normal person to stay underground before he is infected with the curse?"
"Two to three days."
Zhugefu said sincerely: "But because you just heard the sound of the curse, the time may be advanced." Xie Shen hurriedly asked: "When will it be advanced?"
< br>
“I don’t know about that.” Zhugefu shook his head and said, “After all, different people have different physiques.”
Xie Shen said no more.
He sat cross-legged on the spot, focused his mind, and gradually entered a state of inner vision in order to check whether there was any abnormality in himself.
at the same time.
Seeing Xie Shen sitting cross-legged and silent, Zhugefu did not dare to disturb him, so he just watched carefully.
Time passes.
The appointment lasted for nearly ten minutes.
Under the state of inner vision, Xie Shen suddenly felt something in his heart.
He opened his eyes and said: "I don't have much time. Because of your experiment, I will be completely infected with the curse in about 10 hours, so I must return to the surface now."
"10 hours "After that?"
Zhugefu was startled when he heard this.
He looked at his watch and saw that it was only four o'clock in the afternoon.
In other words, if Xie Shen leaves now, he will arrive on the surface around 9 to 10 pm.
Zhugefu calmly analyzed: "Although if you leave now, you will definitely encounter the Thalamus Sentinel when you reach the surface."
"But compared to being infected with the curse and being killed by the Thalamus Sentinel, In fact, it’s not a big deal.”
“After all, you can still be resurrected by the space station.”
As he said that, he stood up and motioned to Xie Shen: “How about me. Let me guide you. After all, it was me who caused this trouble.”
“Okay.”
Xie Shen narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a hint of threat in his tone: "However, you'd better stop lying to me, otherwise everyone in your laboratory and the entire village will die, and I will kill you until you are all infected." "Death addiction' disease."
"Don't worry, don't worry." Zhugefu looked a little embarrassed when Xie Shen threatened him so unabashedly.
However, compared to Li Xiu, his emotional intelligence is obviously much higher.
Soon, Zhugefu changed his face at the speed of light, and said to Xie Shen with a hint of flattery: "I promise, I will bring you to the surface."
"Then if I encounter a thalamic sentinel, I Just take the initiative to act as bait and help you lure them away.”
"Is this okay?"
Time is running out.
Xie Shen did not want to continue chatting, so he decisively pulled Zhugefu out of the laboratory.
As he walked, he said: "There is no need to be a bait. Although you owe me that, no matter how much I thank you, I will not let you, a mortal, help me lure away the sentry. Anyway, , you just need to bring me to the surface."
"Mortal?" Zhugefu captured a key message from Xie Shen's words.
Based on Xie Shen's previous performance, he thought for a moment and said: "Brother, are you an immortal? Or a cultivator?"
Xie Shen didn't say anything, but walked faster and faster. .
"Oh! Slow down!"
Zhugefu had no choice but to speed up and follow him.
In just a short time, the two of them had left the underground village and gradually moved away
…
At the same time.
In the village.
In a certain stone house, the underground girl Jin Ling was lying by the window, watching Xie Shen and Zhuge Fu leave.
After the two of them walked away, she suddenly and cautiously poked her head out of the house and looked around.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Jin Ling chased Xie Shen in the direction he left like a thief.
