……
Wu Ming has never felt that time flies so fast, and he is racing against every second, making all the preparations.
In a blink of an eye, the seven days were about to pass. At three o'clock in the afternoon on September 9, after taking a hot bath, Wu Ming sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, but he couldn't calm down.
I am afraid that he is the only one in this world who knows what kind of terrible things will happen in a few hours, but he can't stop it when he knows it. It can only be like waiting to spend the rest of his life.
So much so that Wu Ming's hands trembled unconsciously.
Time is slowly passing by, various news about meteorites falling and frequent bloodshed incidents in various places are constantly being played on TV. Today, in broad daylight, many areas have been attacked by 'meteorites', and many people have died in the incident. Deaths have been reported on the news, and warnings have been broadcast advising citizens everywhere to stay at home and not to go out.
At noon, Wu Ming called his colleague Li Xia and asked her to come to his home as a guest.As one of Wu Ming's few friends in Yucheng, Li Xia naturally wanted to keep her safe and let her escape at his home, which was also a plan Wu Ming had thought up early in the morning.
It's just that when it was past four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xia, who was supposed to arrive earlier, never showed up, and it just so happened that Wu Ming's phone rang at this time, and it was Li Xia who called.
Wu Ming, who thought Li Xia had already arrived, answered the phone in a hurry, and Wu Ming had considered Li Xia here for a long time. The house here is strong enough, the windows are protected, there are anti-theft doors installed, and there are many supplies. The chances of survival here Obviously much bigger, but Li Xia told Wu Ming an unexpected news on the phone that she couldn't come.
"Wu Ming, I'm really sorry. The lady next door suddenly fell ill, and her children are not around, and the outside is too chaotic. I have to stay and take care of her. I can only go to your place another day." Li Xia on the other end of the phone apologized Said.
Wu Ming immediately became a little anxious when he heard it. He knew that Li Xia was kind-hearted. To put it bluntly, it would be bad intentions. But how could he let her stay there at this juncture? Li Xia on the other end of the phone was obviously very anxious. He hung up directly, and Wu Ming called back, but he was prompted that he could not be connected.
Next, Wu Ming called several times in a row but couldn't get through, but he knew it was troublesome.
Looking at the time, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon. According to Wu Ming's plan, it is best to stay at home at this time. After nine o'clock in the evening, disaster will happen and the vitality in the air will increase a lot. At that time, you can collect vitality without going out. Maybe half a month, maybe a month, you can gather 24 units of awakened vitality. Once awakened, everything will be fine. comparable viability.
But Li Xia's missed appointment broke his plan, and at this time he fell into a situation where heaven and man were at war.On the one hand, he knew that he could ignore Li Xia, and follow his own plan to wait for awakening in this strong fortress, and then seize various cards to increase his chances of survival.Only in this way, Li Xia will lose contact with her previous life, maybe she will die, after all, when the disaster happened, many people died.
At the same time, on the other hand, a bold plan appeared in Wu Ming's mind, that is to find Li Xia while there are still a few hours left, and bring her here no matter what.But there is no doubt that if I leave here, I will face many dangers. What if I can't find Li Xia?What if you encounter an unknown situation on the road?What if those cards were activated in advance?If you can't get back here in time by then, you will be in big trouble.
There is no doubt that this plan is too risky.
"Come on, Wu Ming, she is not related to you, she is just a female colleague, but she has a good relationship with her. Is it worth taking risks for her? Those cards will be activated soon. If you can't come back in time, the consequences will be disastrous, and Li Xia The place where I live is more than [-] kilometers away from here, and there may be too many unexpected situations on the road, stay here and ignore her, you are just an ordinary office worker, there is no need to take risks."
In Wu Ming's heart, such a voice kept coming out, indeed, the sky outside was already a little dark, and it was really unwise to go out at this time.
But there was another voice in Wu Ming's heart.
"Wu Ming, you coward, you still have time. Although Li Xia is not related to you, she has helped you a lot in the company. In this city, she is the only one who can be called a friend. When you are short of money Only she lent it to you. When she was drunk, she ran several streets to find hot water to help you sober up. It was also she who helped you clean up the messy desk every day. Without Li Xia, you would be alone in Yucheng .And now, are you willing to just watch your friend die and ignore it? If so, even if you can awaken, you are still a weak person. In the new world, the weak cannot survive, and you will still die, even if it is not now , you will still die!"
The two voices kept intertwining in his mind. At this moment, Wu Ming suddenly remembered a detail.He once participated in a beach trip organized by the company and saw Li Xia wearing a bikini.Of course, Wu Ming thought of this at this time, not because he missed Li Xia's infinitely beautiful figure, but because he vaguely remembered that there was a small birthmark on Li Xia's inner thigh.
Birthmarks are very common and nothing, and Wu Ming didn't care about them, but if combined with three years of living experience in the new world, it would be different.
In my memory, the birthmark on Li Xia's inner thigh was very strange in shape, resembling a crescent moon.In the new world, Wu Ming had seen a similar pattern before, it was on the wrist of a strong man, and that strong man was also an awakened man, and he was much stronger than Wu Ming. Among a group of refugees, the strong man carefully took away a boy who also had that kind of crescent birthmark on his neck as if he had encountered some treasure.
There is no doubt that this mark is very unusual.
Since returning from rebirth, Wu Ming has been busy making preparations, and it was only now that he suddenly remembered such a thing.No one knows what that mark means, and Wu Ming doesn't know either, but he knows that he has a very good excuse to rescue Li Xia.
Perhaps, this is really an excuse. After all, Wu Ming's memory of the beach is very vague. Maybe it is just a sand stain, but this is not important anymore, because Wu Ming has already made a decision.
He still decided to go to Li Xia. After all, there is still time, and after continuously absorbing nearly five units of vitality in the past few days, Wu Ming's current physique is nearly twice that of normal Chengren. It can also handle one or two emergencies.
Wu Ming wanted to find out what that mysterious crescent moon mark represented in his last life, so how could he let go of this opportunity this time?
Thinking of this, Wu Ming took action immediately. He first sent a text message to Li Xia, telling her that he would go find her, and told her to stay at home and not go anywhere.Now the phone can't get through, so he can only hope for text messages. Then he found a backpack, stuffed the scale armor he bought into it, and at the same time stuffed it into a few bottles of mineral water and biscuits, and then found another Bu, wrapped the Tang knife that had been sharpened, carried it behind his back, put on the vitality collector, and then pushed open the door and walked out.
Several demonstrations took place on the street today, and even bloody clashes broke out. Citizens want to know the truth because they are very scared, but they don't know that the officials are as scared as they are.
Because the outside has been completely chaotic, most citizens have chosen to stay at home since the morning, so the streets appear empty, only the occasional police cars that drive by appear to be in a hurry.
Yucheng is very large. If it is divided according to the area, it can be divided into new city and old city. Currently, Wu Ming lives in the new city with spacious buildings and new facilities. Li Xia lives in the old city. From here, you can take the subway It also takes about an hour.
And there are still more than three hours before the card is activated, so one round trip is theoretically more than enough time, so Wu Ming walked quickly to the nearest subway station.
At this moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded in the distance. This distance sounded a bit like firecrackers, but Wu Ming, who had three years of experience in living in the New World, immediately recognized that it was a gunshot, a real gunshot. .
According to the size of the sound, Wu Ming judged that the gunshots came from 500 meters away, but he didn't know what happened there. This was the first time there were gunshots in the urban area.
Wu Ming, who quickened his pace, finally entered a nearby subway station. Along the way, he saw with his own eyes a group of young people holding iron rods and bricks, smashing open the glass of a shop to snatch property. Strange.
But when Wu Ming arrived at the subway station, he was dumbfounded. The electronic screen of the subway station showed that the entire subway line was out of service, and the entrance was also surrounded by iron fences, making it impossible to get in.
"Damn!" Wu Ming cursed secretly, if you can't take the subway, how can you get to the old city?
No need to ask, it’s such a mess now, since the subways are all stopped, the buses must also be out of service. I didn’t see a bus along the road just now, not to mention buses, even private cars are very rare, and most of them are just walking around. in a hurry.
The public transportation system is out of service, so it is difficult to go to the old city. Wu Ming is poor and has no money to buy a car. Now he can only find another way.
Walking is obviously not a good idea. It takes too much time to walk for a distance of [-] kilometers. But soon, Wu Ming found a few bicycles locked on the side of the road ahead. When he looked around, there was no one there. Wu Ming felt relieved. Heng, however, sneaked past.
A few minutes later, riding a stolen mountain bike, Wu Ming headed towards the old town.
There was no danger along the way, but it took more than an hour to arrive at the old city where Li Xia was. Wu Ming also made several phone calls along the way, but most of them didn't work. Occasionally, no one answered the phone once or twice.
When we arrived at Li Xia's residential area, the sky had already darkened. Wu Ming looked at the time on his watch. It was already [-]:[-] in the evening. the door.
Although time is a bit tight, it is still too late to find Li Xia and take her back, but Wu Ming soon realized that something was wrong. He knocked on the door for 3 minutes, and finally smashed it, but there was no response from the room .
Perhaps Wu Ming's knocking on the door was too loud, and the security door next door opened a crack, revealing a bearded man.
"Knock what, who are you looking for?"
No need to ask, this person must be Li Xia's neighbor. When Wu Ming asked, the latter said, "Oh, are you looking for Li Xia? Aunt Wang next door has a heart attack. Li Xia took her to the hospital."
"Go to the hospital? Which hospital?" Wu Ming asked hastily.
"I don't know that!" After finishing speaking, the bearded man closed the door, leaving Wu Ming dumbfounded in the corridor.
