Lin Sanjiu was sure that her eyes weren't playing tricks on her. That thing really moved.
There was still half a bowl of Fruit of Wisdom Instant Noodles left in Garden of Eden. At that moment, the bowl and fork disappeared from Lin Sanjiu's hand. She stood up and took two steps forward. She stood in front of the duoluozhong with a guarded expression.
Even though the night sky was clear, the scenery was still shrouded in a hazy, ambiguous light. She couldn't see anything clearly. Only the faint reflection of the night light on the "white radish" made it look a little blue. As the sky darkened, the duoluozhong inside the radish could no longer be seen clearly. All that was left was a blurry black shadow.
After waiting for a few moments, the black shadow inside the radish did not move.
When the sky was still bright, Lin Sanjiu had a good look at the duoluozhong. She thought it was a dead object because half of its face was rotten, revealing a large piece of deformed skull.
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and called out her [Ability Polishing Agent]. She placed the silver glow on the "white radish" and narrowed her eyes.
"Huh?"
She was shocked when she saw what was inside the radish. She almost dropped the [Ability Polishing Agent] in her hand. Then, her body reacted faster than her brain. Lin Sanjiu grabbed the digging board and stabbed it into the ground. She quickly dug the "white radish" out of the soil.
Lin Sanjiu carefully measured the distance between them. She placed her hands at a distance away from the black shadow and activated her [Mosaic Censorship]. Then, there was a loud bang. Along with countless slime and tendrils, the black shadow slid out from the "white radish" and fell to the ground.
"Hey, wake up!" She suddenly saw a glimmer of hope. She was so excited that her voice became shrill. She rushed forward and pulled the person out of the slime. She slapped his face repeatedly, "Are you still alive? Wake up! "
An unfamiliar young man was lying in her arms. His clothes were all wet and tattered, hanging off his body in strips. In this face, it was a man. His eyes were closed and his face was covered with slime and tendrils. His chest was not moving at all. Lin Sanjiu had never learned first aid. She had only seen it on TV before. At this time, she had no choice but to imitate him. She placed her hand on his naked chest and pressed it down again and again. To be honest, she did not know what she was doing.
She had been desperately trying to find a cure for a while, but she did not expect the man to have a reaction. His chest seemed to tremble slightly, and then the young man suddenly coughed. "Urgh." He turned his head and vomited a bunch of stuff.
Lin Sanjiu quickly retracted her hand and looked up. She found that the puddle of liquid looked very familiar. It was a mixture of moving, maggot-like tentacles. What else could it be if not the mucus from the "white radish"?
The young man's eyes had not fully opened yet, but he was already in extreme pain from the things in his chest and throat. His face was flushed red, and he kept retching. His hands were subconsciously trying to dig things out of his mouth, ears, and nose. The long whiskers were like frightened insects that abandoned their nest and swam out of the five holes on his face. He hurriedly swam toward the "white radish" not far from him.
This creepy scene lasted for two to three minutes.
Lin Sanjiu felt that she would never forget the sight of the long white tendrils crawling out of the young man's nostrils and fleeing. She endured the goosebumps all over her body and took out her sword. She quickly slashed at the ground.
However, compared to the sword, the tendrils were too small. Moreover, they seemed to have a mind of their own and dodged Lin Sanjiu's attacks agilely. After some time, Lin Sanjiu only managed to cut a small handful of tendrils.
"Stop, stop," the young man behind her said weakly. Suddenly, the young man behind him spoke weakly. His voice sounded very hoarse, as if his throat had suffered a great deal of damage. "Too much. It's useless … "
Lin Sanjiu spun around and stared at him. She didn't realize that her face was filled with anxiety and hope.
"Are you feeling better?" Lin Sanjiu swallowed her dry throat. "Why are you here? What is this thing? "
The young man lay on the ground and only managed to get up after a long time. He leaned against the rock that Lin Sanjiu was eating on and panted heavily. "Thank you … for saving me. It's all thanks to you … "He vomited so much that his lips turned white, but he didn't forget to thank Lin Sanjiu." What's wrong with this world? How scary … "
The young man was the unlucky guy who fell from mid-air during their journey.
According to Snow Cherry, he must have been on a very high ground before he was teleported, but he fell and fainted the moment he was teleported. Before he could wake up, he was already sucked into the "white radish", and only now did he open his eyes to see this world.
"Do you know what this is?" Lin Sanjiu was so anxious that she almost died. If the young man still had his collar, she would have grabbed it already. "Also, how did you get here? The place where you disappeared is very far from here. Besides, I saw it clearly just now. It's not you, it's a duoluozhong! "
The young man was stunned. After listening to her explanation, he realized that the two of them had met when he was in a coma. He coughed a few times and his expression relaxed a lot. He explained, "I don't know what this thing is exactly. It's just that when I was in a daze, there were a lot of tentacle-like things drilling into my nasal cavity and throat … The air content was also very thin, and even breathing was extremely difficult. As for why I'm here, it's because of my ability — "
[Universal Grand Shift]
The name was taken from a novel by Jin X, a famous wuxia writer. Even the function was very similar. It made people wonder if the owner of this ability lacked creativity.
Effect: This ability has been upgraded once. You can now exchange positions with any target within a 250 meter radius. It doesn't matter if the target is an object or a living creature. As long as the target's size is similar to your body, the exchange will be successful. However, it was important to note that if the other party was a human and the human had never heard of this famous martial arts master, then the exchange would not be successful.
In other words, it all depends on the reputation of this famous wuxia writer in the billions of parallel worlds...
Lin Sanjiu found it a little inconceivable. Perhaps it was because Lin Sanjiu had saved his life that the young man revealed everything about his ability to Lin Sanjiu.
"My brain is already muddled because of the lack of oxygen … I didn't dare to open my eyes as I was afraid that those things would crawl into my eyeballs. While I endured the itch when they crawled into my nostrils and ears, I had to force myself not to faint and keep activating my ability … "
The young man named Qian Zhengguan still had a lingering fear when he talked about his experience in the "white radish". His face was pale and he looked as if he wanted to vomit, but he couldn't.
Lin Sanjiu listened to him patiently for a while. Finally, she couldn't help but interrupt him, "I have nine friends who went missing around here. I suspect that they encountered the same situation as you. Think about it carefully. When you activated your ability, did you detect any signs of living people nearby? "
"No wonder you are digging here!" Qian Zhengguan exclaimed in surprise, "It's so nice that you have so many friends, unlike me — Oh, I got it. Don't worry, let me think …"
This guy seemed to be a slow-witted person. His thinking was the most divergent among all the people Lin Sanjiu knew. If she wasn't careful, he would stray from the topic. Lin Sanjiu had to constantly pull his attention back to the topic.
Qian Zhengguan had activated his ability more than ten times in the "white radish", so it took him a lot of effort to think. Finally, he recalled something, "Hmm … I think there was one time, probably between the 20th and 30th time, when I sensed someone within 250 meters. I wanted to switch positions … But that person didn't seem to have heard of Jin Yong, so I didn't manage to switch positions. Could that person be a foreigner? "
Lin Sanjiu jumped up, "Do you still remember where you are?"
Qian Zhengguan had a blank expression on his face, but when he saw Lin Sanjiu's expression, he was immediately frightened, "I can walk backward and follow the clues. Maybe I can find him. But now, I have two problems … "
"What problems?"
"The mucus inside is moving, and it keeps pushing me forward. Even if I find the location, I don't know if that person is still there …"
To Lin Sanjiu, this was not a problem at all, "I still want to try! What's the second problem? "
"This thing is too scary," Qian Zhengguan's face was full of lingering fear, "I activated my ability in there, but I couldn't switch to the outside no matter what. Just now, you said that I would be sucked in if I touched it. I'm afraid that I — "
Before he could finish his sentence, Lin Sanjiu grabbed his arm. Before he could react, Qian Zhengguan realized that the world in front of him had turned upside down. Lin Sanjiu was carrying him on her shoulder like a pig. Qian Zhengguan was a man of about 170 centimeters.
"Show me the way!" Lin Sanjiu shouted. "Ah!" Qian Zhengguan screamed in pain as she jumped onto the "white radish".
Qian Zhengguan's heart almost jumped out of his throat. He closed his eyes and when he opened them again, he realized that he was fine. With a trembling voice, he whispered into Lin Sanjiu's ear, "Over there … I think it's to the right … Why are you fine? Yes, I switched places with a dead person here … "
Lin Sanjiu felt that she had never run so fast ever since she evolved. However, after the guy on her back said something slowly, she could still increase her speed.
"Hmm, it seems that the mucus is a little corrosive … My clothes are not like this in the first place." (To be continued)
PS:
There is no thank you list ~!
I went to the legendary "No Male Protagonists" this afternoon. Ahaha, I actually saw this book a few times? Why don't you bookmark me? I don't like to write romance novels anyway … If it wasn't for the readers who said that they wanted to watch love stories, I wouldn't even want to write a side story about Lin Sanjiu...
As for the title, I would like to explain a little … I eat late, so every time I write a chapter, I get very hungry. That's why I like to insert irrelevant food into my chapters to satisfy my craving...
