[No Title, Can Sleep]
Lin Sanjiu was sure that her eyes were not playing tricks on her. That thing really moved.
There was only half a bowl of Fruit of Wisdom instant noodles left in Garden of Eden. The bowl and the 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 seconds, 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?"
Lin Sanjiu was shocked by what she saw. 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 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 of 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. His face was too small for a man. His eyes were tightly shut and his face was covered with mucus and fine hairs. His chest did not rise or fall at all. Lin Sanjiu had never learned how to perform first aid. She had only seen it on television before, so she had no choice but to imitate him. She placed her hand on his bare chest and pressed it. To be honest, she had no idea what she was doing.
She massaged the man for a while in desperation, but she did not expect the man to have a reaction. His chest seemed to tremble slightly, and then the young man coughed violently. "Wah!" He turned his head and vomited a bunch of things.
Lin Sanjiu quickly pulled her hand back and looked up. She found that the puddle of liquid looked very familiar. It was a mixture of tendrils that could move and looked like maggots. If it wasn't the slime from the "white radish", what else could it be?
The young man's eyes had not fully opened, but he was already tormented by the thing in his chest and throat. His face was red. While he was retching, he was subconsciously trying to dig something out of his mouth, ears, and nostrils. The long tendrils were like startled insects. They abandoned their nest and crawled out of the orifices on his face. They hurriedly swam toward the "white radish" not far away.
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 summoned her sword. She began slashing the ground rapidly.
However, compared to the sword, the tendrils were too small. On top of that, they seemed to have a mind of their own and dodged Lin Sanjiu's attacks very nimbly. After some time, Lin Sanjiu only managed to chop off a small handful of tendrils.
"Stop, stop," the young man behind Lin Sanjiu said weakly. His voice sounded very hoarse, as if his throat had suffered a lot of damage. "There are too many of them. It's useless …"
Lin Sanjiu turned around and stared at him. She did not realize that her face was filled with anxiety and hope.
"Are you feeling better?" She swallowed her dry throat. "Why are you here? What is this thing? "
The young man lay on the ground for a long time before he managed to get up. He leaned against the rock that Lin Sanjiu had eaten her noodles 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 did not forget to thank Lin Sanjiu." What's wrong with this world? It's so scary … "
The young man was the unlucky guy who fell from mid-air during their journey.
According to Snow, he must have been on a very high ground before he was teleported, but he fainted the moment he was teleported. Before he could wake up, he was sucked into the "white radish". It was only now that he opened his eyes and saw the world around him.
"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 to is very far away from here. Besides, I saw it clearly. 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 — "
[Heaven and Earth Grand Shift]
The name was taken from one of the famous wuxia novels. Even the function was very similar. Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but wonder if the owner of this ability was lacking in creativity.
Effect: This ability has been upgraded once. Currently, you can swap positions with any target within a 250 meter radius. Regardless of whether 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 is important to note that if the target is a human and the human has never heard of this famous wuxia novel, the exchange will not be successful.
In other words, it all depends on the reputation of this famous wuxia novel 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 nose 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 have gone missing around here. I suspect that they have 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, and 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 change my position … But that person didn't seem to have heard of Jin Yong, so I didn't manage to change my position. Could that person be a foreigner? "
Lin Sanjiu jumped up, "Do you 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 can move, and it keeps pushing me forward. Even if I find the position, 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 inside, but I couldn't change my position 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 found that the world in front of him had turned upside down. He was a man about 170 centimeters tall, but Lin Sanjiu was carrying him on her shoulder like a pig.
"Show me the way!" Lin Sanjiu shouted. "Ah!" Qian Zhengguan screamed in pain as she jumped onto the "white radish".
Qian Zhengguan, whose heart almost jumped out of his throat, closed his eyes. 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? Hmm, yes, I've changed positions 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, the mucus seems to be a little corrosive … My clothes are not like this."
