Chapter 1211 More Stars
Yao Qing's pleading did not change anything.
Xiao Chunping will not change her mind easily. She has come a long way from being unknown to where she is today. She has founded and managed the Suzhou Embroidery Museum for decades. She has never been a weak and indecisive woman, but a strong and capable Xiao Chunping. She loves Yao Qing very much, but she will not be shaken by Yao Qing's pleading.
Strands of embroidery silk flew out from Xiao Chunping's fingertips and instantly wrapped around Yao Qing's body. The latter felt his whole body tighten and he was fixed in place like a sculpture, unable to move at all.
"My dear grandson, grandma is gone..." Xiao Chunping gently stroked Yao Qing's head and spoke softly.
"After grandma passes away, you should not be too obedient. You should have your own opinions when encountering things... The task of promoting our Suzhou embroidery is now handed over to you."
After saying that, she gave Yao Qing a final, deep look, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance in her mind forever...
Then he turned and walked into the darkness.
"grandmother!!!"
Veins popped out on Yao Qing's neck and tears flowed wildly from his eyes. He kept calling out for Xiao Chunping, but even though his throat was hoarse, the old figure never looked back.
He just vaguely saw drops of crystal falling from the white-haired cheeks and disappearing without a trace.
Yao Qing had never collapsed like this before. He grew up under the care of his grandmother, but now he could only watch Xiao Chunping die and he could do nothing... This was the first time he truly realized how weak he was, so weak that he didn't even have the qualifications to stand next to the person he cherished.
The guests around looked at the bound Yao Qing with sympathy, but no one stepped forward to untie him... Perhaps in their hearts, they had already regarded Yao Qing as their own child. If their own children were here, they would do the same thing as Xiao Chunping.
More and more people walked out of the 7012 Underground Project and rushed towards the passage leading to the surface.
……
“A lot of people came.”
Ying Fu returned to the surface, glanced at the people who were quickly rushing over from behind, and spoke lightly.
Chen Ling and Ying Fu directly opened up the inclined tunnel from Project 7012 to the surface. After all, there was a mountain directly above Project 7012, and if they wanted to get back to the surface as quickly as possible, they could only go up diagonally... and Chen Ling also deliberately increased the slope of the tunnel. Coupled with the long distance, it would be impossible to get up without some tricks.
This is the screening mechanism left by Chen Ling. The strength of those who have no experience in the 749 games varies greatly. If they can't even climb this slope, there is no need to seek death in the disaster of the Bitter Flesh Forest.
But what neither Chen Ling nor Ying Fu expected was that the effect of this recruitment was unexpectedly good...
Sun Bumian, Shen Nan, Han Xiang, Xiao Chunping, Zheng Zhiqing... not counting those who were originally our own people, the other high-level combat forces registered in the 749 bureaus have almost caught up.
Such a lineup is enough to support them in killing their way through the forest of bitter flesh!
but……
"At least half of these people will die." Chen Ling's voice sounded somewhat regretful.
He looked at Xiao Chunping, who was leaping towards him from behind with her feet on an embroidered oriental dragon, and his eyes flashed with complexity... Xiao Chunping had done him a favor, and if possible, he really didn't want Xiao Chunping to take risks at her age.
But this is Xiao Chunping's own choice.
She stood on the dragon's back with her hands behind her back, her silver hair fluttering in the wind and her back straight. Since meeting Xiao Chunping, Chen Ling had never seen her so full of energy. She looked like she was a dozen years younger!
Boom-! ! !
A loud bang came from the direction of Wushan Town.
With full of enthusiasm, the people rushed out of the 7012 underground project, and when they saw the scene in the distance, they were stunned at the same time...
Dozens of strange gaps were suspended above the nuclear ruins. The space within a radius of several kilometers seemed to be dyed with gray, white and black, as dark as an ancient film.
At the same time, thick things that looked like tree trunks or tentacles crawled out from the gaps. They coiled around the wreckage of the building, and extended dense, wriggling roots from the ends, piercing into the ground...
These tree trunks are entangled with each other, and from a distance, they look like a super flesh and blood heart parasitic on the nuclear ruins.
“That…that is…” The gossip heir felt his scalp tingling when he saw this scene.
"Didn't they say it was a nuclear strike? How could such a monster appear..."
"Is it a biological weapon developed by the United States?"
"Such a terrifying aura... My heart starts beating wildly just by being close to it!!"
"Is it a monster, or a group of monsters? Are we going to snatch the people back from them? Can we do it?"
"What are you talking about? We all came here with the determination to die. We have to do it even if we can't do it!!"
"Mr. Sun, Mr. Han, and Grandma Xiao are all here, as well as the two mysterious emperors... We can definitely do it."
"..."
For most people, it was the first time they saw a disaster, and it was a disgusting monster from the Bitter Flesh Forest. They felt strong discomfort both physically and mentally... But since they dared to come, they were not ordinary people. After comforting and encouraging each other, they quickly calmed down.
Chen Ling stared closely at the center of the disaster. A star was still emitting light. The starlight seemed to have some kind of natural suppressive power on these plants. The large number of roots entangled on the surface did not quickly penetrate into the ground, but vigilantly surrounded them... only releasing a few branches and leaves, and tentatively exploring the edge of the starlight bit by bit.
But as time passed, the star began to dim, and the plants that were originally vigilant around it began to stir.
"It seems that Tianshu Jun can't hold on any longer."
Ying Fu looked at the gradually dimming star, his tone extremely solemn.
"Lu Xun's mental strength is still too weak now, and he can't protect everyone with just that one star..." Chen Ling frowned tightly, as if thinking about how to break the deadlock.
"According to the current situation, they may not be able to hold out until we get there." Ying Fu paused for a moment and began to deduce the subsequent developments in his mind. He didn't know which shelter Jiang Jiang and the others were in now, and except for the one where Lu Xun was, the situations in other shelters seemed to be quite dangerous.
“If only there were more stars.”
Chen Ling's steps paused slightly.
Ying Fu turned around and looked at him, "Chen Ling, what are you doing?"
“…Yes.”
"what?"
“More stars.”
Chen Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, "As long as... a second Tianshu Jun appears, that will be enough."
Ying Fu did not seem to understand what Chen Ling said. He saw Chen Ling's eyes slowly close and he stood there quietly, as if in a trance.
