Chapter 4 Preparing to Go North
Unexpectedly, the fire energy level was so low. Xu Zhiyang rubbed his forehead with a headache, and then separated other energies one by one, but the effect was not satisfactory.
The gold energy can only allow him to create a weak electric current.
The wood energy only produces a small gust of wind as strong as a fan.
The water energy is even more speechless. The water produced is only enough to fill a mineral water bottle.
The earth energy completely made Xu Zhiyang laugh.
A fist-sized ball of dirt appeared in his palm. It was so black and so useless that it wouldn't hurt anyone if it hit them.
"Huh..." Xu Zhiyang took a few deep breaths.
He felt the five remaining energies in his body, and just to display them all, it took up nearly half of his energy.
It seems that I must advance quickly. The current five elements energy is only level 0, not even level 1. Once I reach level 1, I won’t be so passive when encountering emergencies.
Xu Zhiyang rolled up her sleeves. The only thing that made her feel a little relieved was his healing ability. The minor wound that was scratched by Li Huiyin's shoe sole yesterday was now completely gone.
The skin is restored to its original state.
The only remaining ability that cannot be demonstrated for the time being is "energy transmission."
Energy transmission allows Xu Zhiyang to transfer his five elements energy to different psychics, allowing psychics to restore their energy when their energy is exhausted.
Xu Zhiyang was just feeling happy about her abilities when she heard another voice in her mind.
[Are you content with just this? You're such a loser...]
Xu Zhiyang's expression froze. She felt carefully, closed her eyes, and saw another person who looked exactly like herself in her consciousness.
The other self looked very difficult to deal with, with pupils in his eyes frighteningly red and a sneer on his lips, and his aura was very intimidating.
Xu Zhiyang asked calmly, "Are you another me?"
"To be precise, I am your other personality...the dark personality."
The other Xu Zhiyang sneered, "You want to do good things, but I only want to do bad things. When you are injured or tired, it will be my turn to occupy your body."
"Are you created from that fruit?" Xu Zhiyang asked.
"What do you mean by things? I am you and you are me." The other Xu Zhiyang said angrily.
"Okay, got it." Xu Zhiyang nodded, "You can continue to sleep."
“…”
"Xu Xiaoyang, what are you doing? Talking to yourself, are you stupid?" Li Huiyin's voice came from behind.
Xu Zhiyang turned around and looked at her, "I'm not stupid, I just discovered something."
Li Huiyin immediately became alert, picked up a broom and trotted over to Xu Zhiyang, "What is that?!"
"It's okay..." Before he could finish his words, Xu Zhiyang suddenly felt a strong energy fluctuation in the sky, and immediately pulled Li Huiyin up and hid in the house.
As soon as I came in, the sunlight outside suddenly disappeared for a few seconds.
Xu Zhiyang looked up and saw a big white bird flying by, its wings spread out almost covering the sky and the sun.
"Oh my god... What the hell is this? Kun?" Li Huiyin hugged the broom tightly, not daring to move.
Xu Zhiyang: "It's just an ordinary egret. It mutated after the earthquake yesterday."
Looking at the egret flying away, Xu Zhiyang fell into deep thought.
"What are you thinking about?" Li Huiyin poked Xu Zhiyang.
"I'm thinking... we should leave." Xu Zhiyang heard the footsteps of zombies outside the house.
So he lowered his voice and said, "Jincheng is changing very quickly. Plants and animals are evolving very quickly. I'm afraid if we continue to stay here, we will die."
Li Huiyin threw away the broom, pinched her waist and said, "I'm following you. You know my grandma passed away half a year ago. I have no relatives. I only know you. Wherever you go, I'll go!"
Xu Zhiyang smiled faintly and said, "But it's dangerous to follow me. The journey out of Jincheng is full of dangers. You might die."
"Tsk, I'm not afraid." Li Huiyin was inexplicably excited. "The thought of being able to take risks and not living the same old life makes me so happy! My fists can't wait!"
Seeing Li Huiyin like this, Xu Zhiyang was stunned. In his previous life, this silly girl was also like this, following him north without hesitation.
They are no longer ordinary friends, but comrades who have experienced life and death many times.
"Okay, then let's go north to find my brother." Xu Zhiyang subconsciously stretched out his fist. This was a gesture the two of them often made in their previous life.
Fist to fist.
Li Huiyin was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly realized what was going on. She grinned and stretched out her fist... making a scissors gesture.
“You win!”
“…”
Xu Zhiyang remained calm, silently pried her two fingers back, and then put their fists together and touched them.
Li Huiyin: "You're so immature..."
Break off relations!
Choosing to travel north in the hot season of July is bound to be an uncomfortable journey.
Xu Zhiyang and Li Huiyin each carried a backpack, and after packing the necessities, they both came to the kitchen at the same time.
"I think this suits my temperament better." Li Huiyin picked up an iron spoon.
Xu Zhiyang pulled the corner of his mouth expressionlessly, "Stop pretending, all the stuff you have in society is hidden in the box at the bottom of the cupboard."
Li Huiyin's face fell, "Those are my treasures."
"Hurry up, don't waste time." Xu Zhiyang said with a stern face.
"oh……"
Li Huiyin dragged out the box with great effort and dumped all the contents onto the floor.
"I'll use this." Xu Zhiyang picked up a small crossbow.
Li Huiyin looked at the crossbow reluctantly, squatted on the ground and picked them out, and finally chose a silver butterfly knife.
Xu Zhiyang raised an eyebrow: "You know this?"
"Yes." Li Huiyin took a rag and wiped the butterfly knife. "This thing is a magical tool for showing off."
"...Okay." Xu Zhiyang placed the arrow in the quiver. "Shall we set off?"
Li Huiyin put her treasures back in place, put on her backpack, and shouted "Go!"
Xu Zhiyang: "Keep your voice down or it will attract zombies."
"This damn weather is so hot that even the zombies don't want to come out."
Li Huiyin and Xu Zhiyang climbed up a higher sculpture building, each holding a telescope and looking at the Peace Bridge.
"Tell me, why is this bridge so long?" Li Huiyin looked at it for a while and retched twice.
Xu Zhiyang glanced at her: "...Why, bridge sickness?"
"Yeah, I'm disgusted." Li Huiyin rubbed her nose.
"We can only cross this bridge and then get on the highway." Xu Zhiyang took out a box of Huoxiang Zhengqi capsules from his backpack and handed it over.
“We have to take a detour to other places, which is not safe.”
Li Huiyin took a few pills and stuffed them into her mouth and swallowed them dryly, "You are so good at talking and you are right, I will fight with you..."
"Shh!" Xu Zhiyang suddenly turned his head and listened, "There's the sound of a car."
Li Huiyin excitedly asked, "Which direction?"
Xu Zhiyang listened carefully for a few seconds, then suddenly turned around and looked at the road next to him.
A red SUV came into view. The two watched as the SUV drove directly onto the Peace Bridge, sparks and lightning flying all the way without stopping.
"This positioning~ positioning~" Li Huiyin said with a sigh, "Reincarnation? The wheels are spinning so fast!"
Xu Zhiyang stared at the road where the SUV had just come out, muttering, "I don't know whether he will be reincarnated or not, but we are about to ascend to heaven!"
"Huh?" Li Huiyin looked in the direction Xu Zhiyang was looking at and took a deep breath.
"Fuck. Shit. Nima!!"
