Chapter Eighteen - A glimpse into the future
The smell here is so stinking. Even if there is no miasma that creates a illusion, the rotten green juice of this place is disgusting enough.
"I said Xiwu, let's explore the way forward. It's so smelly here." Yu approached Xiwu and said to her with a little congratulation. Xiwu ignored him and was still walking inside.
"I said, Miss, if you are tired, I will drive over and pick you up? The smell here is so irritating!" Yu Shujie and Xiaoxiao made Xiwu laugh out loud in an extremely exaggerated tone.
Then we
We returned the same way and walked back to the yurt we rested the night before.
I saw obvious landslides in several mountains behind the yurt, and the soil on the surface of the mountain had been washed away, revealing the hard rock formations in the core inside.
"There should have been an earthquake here today," said Lei.
The mountain made a huge hole, reminding people that its inner part was also hard.
"Where have the villagers nearby been evacuated?" I asked.
Feng and Lei did not answer.
"There are few people here and the buildings are low, so it is not a core area. The impact should be very small, so there is no need to worry..." Chen Xuejun said, "The main reason is that many of the coastal cities are probably flooded now..."
I remembered the injured villagers. They probably had never walked out of this mountainous area in their lives. They had been grazing horses and sheeping, but they could not escape the impact of this man-made disaster... When the disaster was approaching, they were allowed to die, and the initiators of the disaster built high walls early to build a shelter and hid in it themselves.
In the yurt, the villagers had already left and disappeared, including the old Taoist priest who was traveling around. I secretly prayed that they would have a glimmer of life, and perhaps they could find a new pure land in this misty place.
We found the two modified off-road vehicles we drove when we came. When we left, the cars were concealed and disguised and parked in the valley. But who would have thought that now both bodies were submerged in the soil.
"This is over? We won't have to walk back, are we?"
Chen Xuejun was shocked.
"These cars have been renovated and have extremely sturdy structures. The exhaust cylinders are changed to the top of the body, and they are easy to wade. As long as they can be washed out, they should be able to drive."
"How do you dig this?"
Large pieces of soil and falling rocks buried the body of the car. If it weren't for the small roof, I would have doubted whether we had parked the car here at that time.
Zhao Kai had reached out to pick up the falling rocks around him and pulled out a shovel from his calf.
"You are really foresighted. Why did you expect that we still have to dig the soil?" Chen Xuejun asked.
"Others are used to using daggers when they are close together, but I like engineer shovels. They are useful and have good attack power when fighting. Moreover, they can cook."
Zhao Kai assembled the engineer shovel and used the shovel in his hand to make a spoon roll.
But how long does it take to dig so much soil? Just relying on this small engineer shovel, the digging soil was buried by the soil above, which was tantamount to Yugong moving mountains.
We have to face this reality. We can't drive these two cars anymore, unless there is an excavator that may be able to save them.
"Let's go, save some energy, and you can walk more today."
"What a joke?! Hundreds of kilometers? Walk back? I would rather dig the soil here." Chen Xuejun was the first to object.
"Wait." Wenna raised her hand and told us not to make a noise.
It's the neighing of the horse!
Could it be... the horses we saw before in the shallow next to the yurt that were contaminated by nuclear radiation?
Wenna put her fingers into her mouth and whistled loudly, and the four horses actually ran over obediently.
The scars on the horse's body were shocking, but they were still running hard.
The horse with a broken tail was the thinnest. At its broken tail, there were many horse flies stuck to it, and there were many flying insects surrounding it.
Wenna walked straight over, drove away the annoying flies with her hands, and then gently stroked the horse's head.
"You can ride them back at dawn."
Everyone decided to rest in this yurt tonight, and wait until dawn, and continue to move towards the outpost.
After Chen Xuejun entered the yurt, he found a seat and lay down and slept on his face. Obviously, he didn't want to participate in the night watch duty. Everyone was too lazy to care about him, so he was even more worried about being on duty!
After what happened before, I was determined and resentful to the people around me and would no longer do those stupid things that volunteered. I also found a seat to sit down and waited for the wind to assign the duty tonight.
"I was basically on duty last night, so you can rest tonight."
"Okay, then I'll bother you."
Then I lay down on the other side of me, and Wen Na also lay down on the other side of me, ignoring their allocation issues.
I slowly adjusted my breathing to the speed of sleep, closed my eyes, and my spirit body left my body and condensed in the parking valley. Wenna had been waiting for me here for a long time.
On the way back today, Wen Na was walking next to me. I had countless doubts in my heart and wanted to find the answers to Wen Na, but I had been unable to speak for the people around me, as well as the monitoring equipment on the protective suits.
And just when I was worried, Wen Na's voice actually came from my mind.
The voice was not like saying to me next to me, but in my mind, as if I had imagined it myself! "Dr., I am Winna."
At that time, I looked at Wen Na in panic, and she nodded slightly. The sound in my mind continued to emanate-
"You can walk normally in the Yuan Dynasty. People who communicate with each other can rely on language and can communicate with consciousness alone, but don't let people around you discover it!"
I pursed my lips, suppressed my emotions, and continued to move forward quietly, while Wenna continued to use her consciousness to make sounds like me.
I just had a doubt formed in my heart and wanted to ask Wen Na, and Wen Na has already given me the answer.
"No need to speak, I understand that whatever you want will be transmitted to me, and the people in the shelter will not be able to monitor these. Tonight, you should not be on duty, lie down and go to bed, and wait for me at the farthest place where your spiritual body can condense."
"Winna, are you okay?"
Even though I have a lot of doubts, what I want to know most after seeing Wenna is just that, is she okay now?
"This time I saw you, your face was very bad."
"I...I...I'm fine..." She was also a little excited...
"I was really scared by the time you were so young."
"I don't have much time anymore, Xidian, you must grow up quickly..."
"There is not much time left? What's wrong with you? What the hell is the man in sunglasses saying, what's going on..."
"My body has been severely damaged, and now it's just surviving. What you see now is my spirit."
"I don't believe it! There must be a way, right?"
"Maybe there will be...but seeing you is the most satisfying and happiest thing for me. I also want to spend more time with you."
"You are progressing very quickly, but your original power is still not awakened, and you need to find the lost fragments."
"Can I save you by finding the fragment you mentioned?"
Wen Na smiled, "Once you find it, your power will be awakened, you are a real Yuan person, and you can do those things that were originally impossible."
"Remember, the whole world is in chaos now. You must remember my words, don't sympathize, don't mercy, don't believe that before you are completely awakened, your emotions will only ties you and even ruin you!"
Wenna lights my eyebrows with her hands, and the picture in her mind is close to her! I see myself being roasted in the fire, I see a little girl smiling at me, and then stabbing a dagger into my chest.
My body suddenly shook and looked at Wen Na incredibly, her face full of sorrow.
"That's what I'm worried about." Wenna looked worried.
"Can you see the future?!"
