After comparison, Qin Su discovered that there was a very subtle substance in the body of pregnant women.
It is this substance that makes the baby desperately absorb the mother's bodily functions.
This substance was so minute that she hadn't noticed it before.
Was this the substance that Wang Ming injected into the woman?
Or is it that Wang Ming had already contacted Li Boqing, and that his getting those women pregnant was also part of Li Boqing's plan?
Otherwise, how come Li Boqing hasn't made a move after the news of Wang Ming's escape has been circulating for so long?
However, these matters will have to be investigated after the sinkhole is completely cleared.
As soon as the sky cleared up, Xu Jingzhi got busy. She led everyone to wash the bed sheets and blankets, and then took out the quilts and mattresses to air them out.
The yard was filled with colorful bed sheets, creating a particularly cozy atmosphere.
The sunshine smells so good, it's just a pity that this sunshine won't last long.
"If you're not tired, shall we go to the training room?"
Huo Sijin has been researching something these past two days, and apart from training, she has been staying in her room the whole time.
Qin Su was a little curious, but she didn't ask any further questions. Now that he was offering to help her train, she certainly wouldn't refuse.
"Your health isn't good, and your physical strength isn't enough, so you can only use some clever techniques!"
To Qin Su's surprise, the techniques Huo Sijin had been researching these past two days were actually applicable to her life-saving skills.
After an afternoon of practice, she actually felt like she could do it.
"Don't get cocky. You're not in good health and can't fight a prolonged battle. Find an opening and run!"
Although he would definitely be by her side most of the time, there are always unexpected times.
He had to ensure her safety while he had the time!
"Of course I know."
Qin Su was unconvinced and felt that Huo Sijin was looking down on her.
With poison in her left hand and her spatial ability in her right, she could always protect herself, no matter what.
Huo Sijin frowned, took out a bracelet with an antique pattern from her pocket, and put it on her wrist.
"This bracelet could save your life in a critical moment, don't take it off."
Qin Su raised her hand, then silently withdrew it.
It's not that she's a coward; having been given a second chance at life, she's determined to live it to the fullest. She cherishes anything that increases her safety.
How do I use this bracelet?
After searching carefully, I couldn't find any switch.
Huo Sijin looked at that slender, fair wrist, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.
"It will automatically activate its protection mode when it encounters danger."
Qin Su: ……
This explanation is tantamount to no explanation at all.
However, since the man's wealth was all in her hands, he wouldn't lie to her.
But just in case, she still threatened him quite bluntly.
"Fine, if there's something wrong with this bracelet, I'll use your guys to kill you!"
Huo Sijin smiled and said, "Okay."
He wasn't angry at all?
wack!
Qin Su felt a little strange, but she was quickly drawn to the sounds outside.
"The water receded so quickly!"
To facilitate observation of the outside situation, Qin Su spent a huge sum of money to build a lookout tower, where people observed the outside situation every day.
Upon hearing that the waters had receded, everyone rushed towards the observation tower.
The floodwaters that had submerged most of the city were steadily receding.
In just half a day, the water level had receded to the level of a five-story building.
"That's so fast!"
If they didn't know that the landforms would change drastically due to the violent movement of tectonic plates, they might even be happy that the water receded quickly.
However, at this moment, everyone felt only a chill run down their spines.
Qin Su took the binoculars and saw Wancheng, which had been submerged for two months, slowly revealing its original appearance.
Many people have already excitedly run out and have fun, feeling that the world is about to return to normal.
Qin Su sighed. The mayor had already used a helicopter with a loudspeaker to inform everyone that the extent of the disaster was still unclear and everyone had to stay home. But clearly, not many people listened.
Those who ran away were even cursing the mayor, feeling that he shouldn't have stopped them.
And soon, they will pay the price for their ignorance!
Qin Su watched for a while, then left the observation platform with a sullen face.
"You're worried about those people!"
"Who said that? I just think those people were too stupid, they deserved to die!"
Qin Su glared at Huo Sijin resentfully; she had no reason to worry about those people.
She just felt somewhat helpless because she had the advantage but couldn't change the status quo.
Yes, that's it!
Seeing her stubborn little apprentice, Huo Sijin didn't expose him.
"Do you know why your fifth uncle knew about plate tectonics, knew that natural disasters would happen, and knew that sinkholes would appear in the near future, but didn't issue any notice?"
Qin Su was taken aback. Compared to her, the words of her five uncles obviously had a wider reach and were more likely to be believed.
"Why?"
If we could know about disasters in advance, we could prepare earlier and live longer, right?
"Because their predictions are not 100% certain, if they were to be made public, it would cause panic and social unrest. What is more dangerous than the end times is the human heart."
Qin Su felt that Huo Sijin's words were somewhat mystical.
Do you know something inside?
Otherwise, why would he have prepared so many firearms in advance?
"no!"
Huo Sijin looked away, but her tone was cold.
"I just have some reservations about the rules of survival in this world."
Is this person world-weary?
Has this person encountered something? But seeing that he didn't want to talk about it anymore, Qin Su didn't ask any further.
Everyone has secrets, and it's inappropriate to pry into them.
But hearing him say that made me feel much better.
She has done what she could; whether others listen or not is their own decision.
Sigh, it seems that the space is too powerful, causing her to have too much responsibility, which is not a good thing.
She needs to straighten her mind; in the apocalypse, the most important mission is to protect herself.
By the next morning, the floodwaters had completely receded.
The sun was shining brightly, a gentle breeze was blowing, and the whole city felt especially peaceful.
Seeing that the people who went out yesterday were fine, even more people went out today.
Everyone had been away from land for too long, and now, running wildly on the ground felt like an immense joy.
The sounds of talking and laughter filled the city again, and everyone was preparing to start anew.
However, at that moment, the ground suddenly trembled violently.
"What happened? Was it an earthquake?"
Some people then remembered the municipal notice and hurriedly ran to the resettlement site.
But suddenly their feet slipped and they fell uncontrollably. Only then did they realize with horror that a bottomless sinkhole had appeared in the ground!
Many people didn't even have time to run before being swallowed by the sinkholes. Those who were still running frantically, seeing sinkhole after sinkhole appear before them, had no idea where the way out was!
Screams, cries, stampedes...
Wancheng suddenly became a living hell!
