End of the Apocalypse
Ling Shi felt that his heart almost stopped beating and was hanging there.
His wrist was stiff and he dared not move.
The skin next to the blood vessels felt numb for a moment and a little itchy.
Not an illusion!
Lu Tingxiao opened his lips slightly and bit them weakly.
Ling Shi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, almost jumping out of his throat.
He pulled his hand back, bit open the blood vessel again, and moved closer to Lu Tingxiao's mouth.
His lips trembled, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't open his mouth.
All the messy and complicated thoughts in my stomach were mixed together, forming a mess, blocking my throat.
Under the wrist, Lu Tingxiao seemed to have regained a little vitality. He sucked hard on the blood vessel and took several deep sips.
He let out a long sigh.
Ling Shi finally felt a little calmer.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Lu Tingxiao open his eyes.
"You're really amazing." Lu Tingxiao glanced at him with a sour expression on his face and his voice was hoarse: "You found all this."
Ling Shi was choked.
He had just recovered from the shock of Lu Tingxiao's "resurrection" and couldn't find any way to retort.
"Next time Mars is about to hit the Earth, send your Captain Ling there. You alone can push Mars away." Lu Tingxiao said indifferently.
Ling Shi threw the man to the ground, pointed at his nose and cursed: "Don't you dare try to be preemptive! I'm asking you, why do you disappear without a word? What do you mean by that?!"
"You're the fucking greatest! For humanity! For the world!"
It was only at this moment that the emotions he had been suppressing began to erupt.
"Who the hell am I? I'm not worth even a single second of your energy, Commander Lu! I'm not even worth explaining myself!"
Lu Tingxiao didn't even say anything back.
He swallowed, looked a little stiff, and sat very still.
"Speak!" Ling Shi roared.
Lu Tingxiao's lips suddenly lifted slightly, but he immediately forced them down: "Captain Ling, you're being a bit unreasonable. You didn't ask anything, you just cursed. What should I answer?"
Ling Shi choked, but continued to yell, "You still think you're right?!"
"No, absolutely not." Lu Tingxiao admitted his mistake without any psychological barriers: "Captain Ling, don't be angry, I'm still alive."
Ling Shi slapped him hard, took a few deep breaths, then sat down on the ground and leaned on Lu Tingxiao's back.
The temperature of the surrounding environment was too high, and after cursing angrily for a while, he felt a little breathless.
Lu Tingxiao didn't move and let him lean on him like that.
The two sat in silence for several minutes.
"Hey," Lu Tingxiao nudged him lightly with his elbow and asked quietly, "I think my pants are about to melt. How about we go? Otherwise, I'll be naked later, which won't look good."
Ling Shi burst out laughing.
Although he was still full of anger, the fact that Lu Tingxiao was still alive made him willing to take the initiative to digest all his anger.
"Let's go. I don't want to see your butt for now. It's probably still black."
The two of them supported each other and stood up shakily.
Then they looked at each other's cowardly expressions and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Lu Tingxiao put his arm around Ling Shi's shoulders and said, "Since you're here, come with me to bury the dragon horn."
Ling Shi nodded, put his arm around his waist, picked up the transparent "coffin" on the ground, and dragged it away.
"Did you know that the terrain here has changed?"
"Yeah." Lu Tingxiao walked slowly with him, "I came here once during a break from transporting North African refugees."
"So you deliberately ditched me and came here to die?" Ling Shi began to grit his teeth again as he spoke. "What about Ma Minghong and the others? Did they find out they were looking for death after arriving here, so they betrayed you and ran away?"
If he had someone with him, he wouldn't have fainted on the roadside.
Lu Tingxiao bent over, laughing so hard that he choked and coughed violently a few times before saying, "If the three of them heard this, they would be so aggrieved that they would compare themselves to Dou E."
He said seriously, "I found the situation here was getting worse, so I found an excuse to send them away."
Ling Shi snorted and asked again, "What's the matter with all those little cuts on your arms?"
"Hmm?" Lu Tingxiao froze for a moment, glanced at it, and seemed to remember: "Oh..."
Draw out the ending sound...
"Don't make it up." Ling Shi exposed him.
Lu Tingxiao laughed again, and finally said honestly: "I cut it myself."
Ling Shi stopped and looked at him sideways. He used some force on the hand on his waist and pinched the soft flesh.
"Hiss." Lu Tingxiao took a deep breath. "The air density here is too high, and my head is always dizzy. This... mouth, it's for refreshing."
Ling Shi laughed in anger, hugged his friend and continued walking forward with him: "So how far are we from our destination?"
Lu Tingxiao breathed a sigh of relief: "According to my previous survey, the deep well dug by the exploration team back then is about 500 meters ahead."
"There's a layer of biological film deep in the well. That's probably what's blocking the dragon horn's influence."
"So, we just need to throw the dragon horn in?" Ling Shi confirmed.
Lu Tingxiao turned his head to look at him, then turned back: "No, it's not us. It's me."
Before Ling Shi lost his temper, he added in time: "We need to leave one person outside for support, so that we can all survive."
"Then I'll go." Ling Shi said without hesitation: "I can withstand high concentrations of air better."
As they talked, they had already walked most of the way. In the distance, the outline of a deep well was faintly visible.
Lu Tingxiao stopped, turned around, looked at Ling Shi, and said in a very slow tone, almost emphasizing each word: "Ling Shi, you know I can't let you go."
Ling Shi looked at him, breathing heavily.
The high temperature seemed to have clouded the minds of the two people.
But no one was willing to give in.
Lu Tingxiao suddenly reached out and tapped Ling Shi lightly on the back of his neck.
Ling Shi's eyes blurred for a moment and he fell down softly.
The expression on his face, as if he was about to curse, was frozen there.
"Half an hour." Lu Tingxiao said in a low voice. He pinched Ling Shi's wristband and pressed the timer for half an hour.
His hand moved to Ling Shi's wrist and his thumb gently felt around.
The skin on the wrist was red, and some dry and cracked fine lines were visible to the naked eye.
The thumb brushed over it, and it became even more red and swollen.
The air I breathed was scorching hot, burning every inch of my skin.
We can't wait any longer.
Lu Tingxiao took a last deep look at Ling Shi, stood up decisively, picked up the dragon horn beside him, turned around and strode away.
After walking about ten meters, he slowed down.
The concentration in the air reached its peak, my head felt dizzy, and every step I took could cause me to faint.
Lu Tingxiao took out the dagger again and cut the skin on his arm with force.
He has always used this method to keep himself awake.
One step, two steps.
Every step is difficult.
He had forgotten the time, and was supported only by a strong and unyielding spirit.
There is wind, blowing from some distant corner.
It was scorching hot, almost enough to take away your breath.
Finally, Lu Tingxiao walked to the deep well.
He was no longer able to support himself, and without caring about the heat of the rocks on the ground, he fell to the ground beside the deep well.
He pulled the dragon horn hard with his arm and pulled it to his side.
Push the box hard, a little at a time, to move it toward the wellhead.
Finally, the critical point has arrived.
Lu Tingxiao exhaled and pushed gently.
The culprit who changed the entire world pattern and affected the future of the human species suddenly fell into the depths of a deep well.
come down--
thump.
A muffled sound.
Lu Tingxiao widened his eyes and looked down hard.
The Dragon Horn Box sank into the film, first one side, then the entire box, slowly and slowly sinking.
Until it completely penetrates the film and disappears on the other side.
No longer seen.
It will no longer endanger human survival.
Over a period of more than half a year, Lu Tingxiao and Ling Shi, along with the entire White Eagle Team, searched country after country for the traces of the Dragon Horn's remains, facing the schemes of humans and the threats of corrupted people...
Fortunately, they came over.
They ended the apocalypse.
Lu Tingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, put his hands on the ground, and tried to get up.
My stomach felt scorching hot, maybe it had been burned.
Suddenly, the rock beneath my hand crackled.
Lu Tingxiao was stunned for a moment, and his thinking was slow.
Boom.
All the rocks on the upper body collapsed at once and fell straight into the deep well!
Lu Tingxiao's heartbeat stopped for a moment, and all the sounds in his ears seemed to disappear at once.
boom--
The moment he felt himself coming back to his senses, he had already fallen down with the rock.
It's over.
There is no way to say goodbye to Ling Shi.
This guy will definitely make me mad.
This time... I guess I'll be angry for a very long time.
Lu Tingxiao closed his eyes, letting the sparks curl up his eyebrows...
Snap. The ankle was grabbed.
The body stops falling.
Lu Tingxiao was stunned for a moment.
The heart that was almost dead began to beat violently.
"Get the hell up here!" A gnashing curse came from behind him: "You usually look like you have a brain, why do you have to choose this time to be dazed?!"
Lu Tingxiao couldn't help laughing.
He twisted his waist, exerted force on his abdominal muscles, and folded his whole body in half using his ankles as the fulcrum - and grabbed Ling Shi's arm.
Ling Shi took him back, and the two immediately moved away from the deep well area.
thump.
They all fell to the ground.
Lu Tingxiao lay on the ground.
The originally scorching hot rocks no longer became unbearable in contrast to the temperature of the deep well.
He felt limp all over and had no strength to stand up.
Bang--
He was kicked in the waist.
Not very strong.
Lu Tingxiao buried his head and chuckled.
Bang—another kick.
"What are you laughing at!" Ling Shi said viciously, "I almost had to collect your corpse."
Lu Tingxiao propped himself up a little, grabbed the person who was not far away and pulled him into his arms. He buried his head in the crook of the other's neck and took a deep breath.
His voice was hoarse and sincere: "I'm sorry, Captain Ling, I made you worry."
The person in front of me fell silent.
I let him hold me and relax for a while.
"We are not out of danger yet." Lu Tingxiao said with his eyes closed.
"I know." Ling Shi's voice had returned to calm, even with a hint of warmth.
Lu Tingxiao opened his eyes, supported himself on the ground with one hand, and stood up with the help of Ling Shi.
"Walk."
Although the dragon horn was buried, the temperature and air concentration around it did not drop.
Both of them are at the end of their strength. If they are not careful, they will fall in the last moment before dawn.
They walked forward, supporting each other, holding each other's arms. You hugged me and I hugged you.
Occasionally smile at each other.
thump.
Lu Tingxiao lost his strength and knelt on one knee.
The world before my eyes began to turn blood red, as if someone was pouring out a heavy rain of blood.
"Lu Tingxiao!" Ling Shi's anxious shout came into his ears.
That was the last sound Lu Tingxiao heard.
