Chapter 188 Volume 2 Chapter 82 Missing Er Dai
Shao Qing didn’t have time to say more. She held Er Dai and ran back to her home. There was an indescribable fear in her heart.
In the past, even if she or Er Dai was injured, Shao Qing did not feel this way because they were zombies. Unless they were fatal wounds like head cuts, general injuries would heal quickly.
But this time, Er Dai didn’t have any signs of healing.
Shao Qing was very scared. Panic, weak legs, her heart was a mess.
When she rushed home, Fu Jingmo was watering flowers and saw Shao Qing rushing in carrying Er Dai. Startled, he asked: “Qing Jie, what’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing, watch the door.” Shao Qing held Er Dai and rushed upstairs with a blank expression. Probably because she was entering her own house, she felt a bit more relaxed. Fu Jingmo accidentally saw Er Dai, a piece of his back not covered by clothes.
It was shocking.
Fu Jingmo was stunned and stood for a long time before laughing lightly. There was an inexplicable madness in his eyes. He thought it was weird how Fu Jingshen could be safe and have only lost his memory. It turned out….. that Fu Jingshen was no longer human.
He clutched the kettle in his hand, there was an unrestrained jealousy in his eyes. Fu Jingshen, oh Fu Jingshen. When you were alive, you robbed me of everything. Now that you are dead, you still want to fight with me.
He won’t accept this!
Why do all the good things belong to Fu Jingshen? Why does everyone like Fu Jingshen? Why is it that he can give up so many things but still not get what he wants? While Fu Jingshen didn’t have to do anything and people would just throw themselves at him?
Why?!
He had the same face as Fu Jingshen, but Shao Qing would rather like a zombie than give him an extra glance.
Fu Jingmo’s eyes changed from crazy jealousy to cold and bloodthirsty. A zombie… not even a human being, what are you going to use to fight against him?
Fu Jingshen, you should have died already. So this time, go die quietly.
I will take over the things you have.
Shao Qing hugged Er Dai and brought him to the second floor. She carefully placed him on the bed and removed his coat. The shocking wound still showed no signs of recovery.
Shao Qing observed carefully, and then found that his wound has been recovering, but there was a special power that while he recovered continued to attack at his wound.
Every time the wound recovered a little, it would be destroyed immediately. Thus it looked like it had not recovered at all.
She was so anxious that when she turned around, she just found out that Yan Qiyue and the rest had not returned yet. Thus she quickly rushed out and carried Yan Qiyue back.
“Come and see. What’s the matter with him?”
Yan Qiyue hadn’t caught his breath yet. In a huff, he smiled wryly and tried to joke with Shao Qing, but seeing the huge trauma on Er Dai’s back, he stopped.
He didn’t like Er Dai very much and was always jealous of Er Dai taking Shao Qing’s heart. Sometimes he secretly roasted him, but he never thought of letting Er Dai die. This was because Shao Qing would be sad.
Moreover, Er Dai loved Shao Qing a lot. He was willing to use his life to protect Shao Qing. Yan Qiyue can see it, so even if his jealousy was killing him, Yan Qiyue would not do anything to Er Dai.
On the contrary, when he saw that Er Dai was seriously injured, his first reaction was how he should help Er Dai.
After Shao Qing talked about her findings with Yan Qiyue, Yan Qiyue gritted his teeth and said, “I need some time to do research because I can’t be sure what this energy is on his wound.”
Shao Qing nodded and said, “You do your research, Er Dai should still be able to resist for a while.”
Yan Qiyue nodded and began to move his tools. Shao Qing was very panicked. She suddenly wanted to smoke, so she walked outside the door and took a cigarette to smoke silently as if it could relieve her panic.
Yan Hanqing and others also came back one after another. When they saw Shao Qing, they knew that something must have happened. Gu Panpan asked Shao Qing as the representative: “How is it?”
“The injury was very serious and there was no way to recover. Qiyue is trying to find a way.”
Shao Qing took another drag, then pinched out the cigarette: “What about the mist?”
“It’s still spreading. Grandpa Qin has sent people to start evacuating the residents in the city. Before moving out of the city, they sent researchers to come and take a little mist to go back to study. We still don’t know the result.” Yan Hanqing said in a melancholy manner.
“Let’s go back to rest first, the fog won’t spread to here for a while.” Shao Qing smiled reluctantly and then said: “Hanqing, you stay for a while.”
The other few people looked at each other then dispersed. Only Yan Hanqing was left. Shao Qing pinched the cigarette and the remaining half was still sandwiched between her fingers. She twisted the cigarette b.u.t.t and then said: “I have a bad hunch, Hanqing. If something happens in the future, if I’m not around, go directly to Jiangcheng. I trust zombies more. Although they are no longer humans, they are more honest than humans … “
“It’ll be fine.” Yan Hanqing grabbed Shao Qing’s hand. After holding it, he felt he was too impulsive, but after holding the soft hand, he was not willing to let go again.
“You listen to me, I’m not saying that something will definitely happen in the future. Just if something does happen. After all, it’s better to have a good escape route. Yinye is a good person.” She whispered: “People always need to think more.”
Yan Hanqing was silent.
Shao Qing continued: “During the apocalypse, no one dares to say when they will live until. I am just always worried about if one day, something goes wrong, my son will be entrusted to you.”
Yan Hanqing strongly suppressed the bitterness in his heart. He whispered: “It will be fine…” To rea.s.sure Shao Qing, he said: “I will protect the baby.”
“Then I’m relieved, you should go to rest.” Shao Qing said. Yan Hanqing was very reluctant to let go of her hand, but he slowly let go.
After he left, Shao Qing leaned on the window sill and closed her eyes. She was very tired and exhausted. From the past days to the present, the safety of everyone around her was something she fought for with her body. Sometimes, she felt so tired, she wanted to cry. But looking at the soft and happy expressions of the people around her, she would regain the strength to carry on fighting.
Since a long time ago, her instructor had said that she was a person who liked to do everything by herself, that she would live a very hard and tired life.
If possible, Shao Qing also hoped that someone could share the burden with her. But more often, she would not think too much of it and just grit her teeth and walk forward through the thorns to give Er Dai and the rest a way out.
At this time, she understood Yan Qiyue’s abuse tendency very much. When she was very bitter and tired, her temper would become very bad. Yet, she couldn’t let out her anger on the people around her and had to hold it in for a long time. Stuffing it in for so long, she’ll become abnormal.
It’s no wonder that Yan Qiyue always said that the two of them were a natural pair.
Shao Qing thought a lot and finally decided to go for a walk. She went to the place where the mist was spreading and tried to absorb the mist. This kind of mist could indeed be absorbed by her and it was very beneficial to her. However, her speed of absorbing was not as fast as her vines. Secondly, she couldn’t expose this.
After absorbing it for a while, Shao Qingling gleamed and summoned the cute little vines in her family. As she expected, as soon as the vines plunged into the mist, they began to absorb the mist. Like a pipeline, she constantly transported the mist into her body. The speed was much faster.
She absorbed it for a while and then stopped. Secretly absorbing it would not work. She had to find an opportunity to let everyone know that she had a way to solve the mist, then solve it publicly.
Otherwise, it will be very detrimental to her.
After seeing the fog, Shao Qing went out of the city again. On the way, she saw many people moving and all their belongings.
A lot of tents have been placed in the open s.p.a.ce outside the city of Jing Du at that moment. Those people were temporarily living in these tents. If the fog can be resolved before spreading out of the city, then they can move back directly.
If the fog cannot be resolved before it spreads out of the city, then they will have to move away even further.
Everyone was sad. After all, they have settled down and are stable. No one wants to wander and be homeless. Moreover, according to the researchers, if there was no way to suppress the mist, the mist may even spread to the whole world.
As long as there is enough time, this possibility was very great. The first one to be completely submerged would definitely be China.
Since this mist contains an engulfing virus, they can a.s.similate with the air, then continue to spread out.
Father Qin was taking people to arrange the ordinary people who had just left the city. Qin Zixi also took a small team of guards to patrol around.
Then Shao Qing also saw the No. 1 head for the first time. The head seemed to be in his forties or so. His brows were very soft and he seemed to carry an educated scholar aura.
However, Shao Qing knows that no one who can sit in this position and be able to stabilize their position was simple. Especially after the end of the world.
He seemed to want to get to know Shao Qing very much, but Shao Qing was still worried. So after chatting for a while, she went back.
On the second day, Grandpa Qin pa.s.sed the news that the old guys in the research inst.i.tute had studied it all night and finally concluded that it could not be suppressed.
Because they could not find anything at all and they were restrained by this kind of fog, it was no wonder Wu Buping said that when he died, he would have the whole world buried with him.
Presumably this virus has been developed and there was no antidote. Thus Wu Buping has not dared to use it until he died.
Yet Yan Qiyue hadn’t come out yet. He only drank a bowl of porridge halfway through. When he came out, his eyes were all blue. While drinking porridge, he was still doing some calculations. After finishing the porridge at the door, he plunged into it again.
Shao Qing couldn’t help with anything and she became more and more irritable. At this time, she realized that she did not treat Er Dai just like a family.
She liked Er Dai and she liked Yan Qiyue.
After admitting this, Shao Qing felt that she was inexplicably relieved. In fact, she always knew it, but she dared not admit it.
Shao Qing wanted to laugh at her timidity. She was at a loss. She admitted she knew the character of Yan Qiyue. As long as she wanted something even if it was for Yan Qiyue to die immediately, he would do it.
If she said that she was willing to accept Yan Qiyue, even if she brought Er Dai along, Yan Qiyue would be mad with joy. This has always been known to her, but what about Er Dai?
He has no memory, he knows nothing. He just loved her by instinct. What about when he recovers his memory?
Shao Qing thought for a long time, and decided to leave the matter temporarily. When Er Dai recovered his memory, she would ask Er Dai if he would like to live with Yan Qiyue and her.
If Er Dai was not willing, she will let go even if she is unwilling. If Er Dai was willing, then she will be a bit more selfish and cherish both men.
As for the eyes of the world, does it matter?
She lived for herself and for those she cared.
Having figured this out, Shao Qing felt a lot easier. Her revenge has already been taken care of. Now there was just a Fu Jinling who she didn’t know was dead or alive. If she saw her in the future, she could just kill her then.
Everyone in the family had the ability to protect themselves, even if one day something happened to her, they can live well. This was no longer a worry.
She also figured out the situation with Er Dai and Yan Qiyue. She felt that her life was close to completion.
After another long day, Shao Qing felt that she couldn’t drag it any longer. She found the chief and said straight away: “I have a way to suppress the fog. As for whether it can be eliminated, I do not know.”
The head asked very seriously: “Will it hurt you?”
Shao Qing shook her head and continued in a serious manner: “I don’t know, but I have the ability that my plant gave me, that is purification, I can absorb all the mist into my plants, and then slowly purify it. Although the speed is a bit slower, it is faster than the speed of the mist spreading.”
The chief grasped Shao Qing’s hand: “I represent the whole country in thanking you. If you find it harmful to your body, please stop. Let us think of another way.”
Shao Qing nodded and took her little vine to absorb the mist. At the beginning, the chief and the Qin family all watched anxiously not far away.
Shao Qing appeared to work hard, conscientiously and cautiously, absorbing it slowly. Then she maintained a slightly faster speed than the mist spread to absorb those mists.
When the mist spread again, the heads and them all retreated. Shao Qing then accelerated the pace. Dozens of vines flew out and absorbed a bunch of mist into the body in minutes. Then it transformed into energy.
Middle of the fifth rank, late fifth rank, peak of fifth rank…
Soon Shao Qing felt that she was only one step away from the sixth rank.
Before the breakthrough, it was a futile attempt to absorb the mist again. Shao Qing stored all the mist in the vines and her body, then waited for the breakthrough before absorbing it again.
After the mist had acc.u.mulated more, a small green bead was formed which existed in the vines and her body.
Shao Qing worked day and night, while Yan Qiyue researched day and night. Later he came to a conclusion. The reason why Er Dai could not recover was because his wound was covered with a special energy. This kind of energy was very destructive, constantly destroying the wound that was just repaired.
There are two ways to restore Er Dai. One is to find something that restrains this energy then remove it. The second is to let Er Dai break through.
If Er Dai can break through to the fifth rank, then his body will have an evolution, it would become anew. When his recovery ability greatly exceeds the destructive power of this energy, as long as Shao Qing suppressed this energy, Er Dai can recover.
As for what restrains this energy, Yan Qiyue has not yet found out.
However, Yan Qiyue temporarily maintained the status of Er Dai now, so that his wounds will not deteriorate. This way Shao Qing can also calmly continue to absorb the mist.
The mist was getting less and less, everyone was cheering. The eyes looking at Shao Qing was like looking at a hero.
Shao Qing didn’t care about this. She didn’t need to be a hero for everyone. She just wanted to be an umbrella for Er Dai and her group.
After the last piece of mist was gradually absorbed by her, Shao Qing was so satiated, she hiccupped.
She moved her body and opened her eyes. As long as she was given an opportunity, she could immediately break through rank 5.
The head walked over with people, there was a happy look on his face: “Captain Shao, you made a big contribution this time! You saved the whole of Jing Du!”
Shao Qing waved her hand. “It was a slight effort. If you continue like this, I won’t be able to stand it anymore.”
“Anyway, your credit can’t be ignored this time. I have to thank you on behalf of everyone.” The Chief thanked her and considered what reward to give Shao Qing.
At this time, Gu Panpan was carrying Yan Qiyue and hurried over: “Qing Jiejie, Qing Jiejie, Er Dai is gone!”
Yan Qiyue, who she was carrying, was also injured. His pale face was curled up on Gu Panpan’s back. Shao Qing heard Gu Panpan’s words and she could only feel a buzz in her head.
