Chapter 326: External Exploration
"Taotao, stay with your brother, okay... Taotao? Taotao, what's wrong with you?" Zhuang Mingxu was just about to let the ignorant Taotao stay with Zhuang Aiyi when he saw Taotao, who was sitting obediently, fall directly to the ground.
His face was black and blue, as if he had been poisoned for a long time, and his eyes were closed and he looked lifeless, which reminded Zhuang Mingxu of the boy buried in an ancient tomb he had seen a long time ago.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother Zhuang, what happened?"
"What happened to Taotao?"
There were voices asking questions from the next room, and then someone started kicking the door.
"Taotao? Wake up?" Zhuang Mingxu knelt on the ground and picked up Taotao. The child who was alive just now was now cold all over, as if he had been dead for a long time.
Thinking of the connection between him and Lu Weiyi, Zhuang Mingxu had a bad feeling.
"Big Daddy?" Zhuang Aiyi, who was woken up, got up dazedly, rubbing his eyes and grabbing Zhuang Mingxu.
Zhuang Mingxu had already stood up holding Taotao. He felt as light as air, not at all like his usual weight. He kicked hard at the only door, "Is there anyone there?"
"Open the door! Open the door!"
"What's going on? Lin Mo, what happened to you guys?"
"Taotao suddenly lost consciousness and her current condition is unclear," Zhou Nan said as he pushed Zhuang Mingxu away and kicked the door hard.
The wooden door was extremely thick, and even after being tampered with, it only made a clanging sound, without any sign of breaking. However, it did alarm the people who were escorting them back not far away.
"Are you looking for death?" Old Li took a gun and kicked the door from outside, "If you continue to make trouble, I will feed you to the fish in advance."
"The child here is sick, can you find a doctor?" Lin Mo said anxiously.
"Doctor?" Old Li laughed as if he had heard a joke, and suddenly his face changed, "You are prisoners, and you still think you are here to enjoy your life?"
"Since he is sick, I might as well send him to feed the fishes, so that the fish can have a full meal." As he said this, he walked towards the room where Lin Mo and the others were.
But when he saw several tall and strong men in the room through the glass, he stopped again.
"Mingxu, do you need help?" Ning Yuan had already clasped his hands behind his back, waiting for Zhuang Mingxu's response, and then used his weapon to break open the door in front of him.
"Big Daddy" At this moment, Taotao suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Taotao?" Zhuang Mingxu was startled and looked down. The child woke up and his body returned to its normal temperature.
He reached out and checked the child's breathing, which was normal.
I breathed a sigh of relief, only to find that my entire back was wet with sweat.
"It's okay for now." After Zhuang Mingxu replied to Ning Yuan, he no longer paid attention to Lao Li who was waiting at the door. He turned over and gently hugged Taotao, asking him in a low voice what was wrong.
"Father seems..." Taotao looked listless, "dead for a while?"
Zhuang Mingxu's heart skipped a beat. "...What about now?"
"Very weak."
Zhuang Mingxu thought of what Bai Shu said before about implanting a bomb in his heart, and his heart tightened, "Why didn't you go back to the space?"
"It happened too fast just now, and my father lost control of the protective jade pendant all of a sudden. If a new father hadn't appeared, I wouldn't have been able to go in," Taotao explained, "but now the protective jade pendant is back on my father."
I don’t know what happened to Lu Weiyi, but Taotao was obviously affected and he looked very exhausted.
Zhuang Mingxu was afraid of unexpected situations, so he asked him to take out some guns from the space first.
"Hide, we will use it to break out," Zhuang Mingxu silently signaled to several people.
Lin Mo, Qi Lin and others looked at what appeared in surprise.
"Taotao's space was not affected," Zhuang Mingxu explained.
There was a flash of excitement in the eyes of Lin Mo and the others. Having weapons gave them some hope. They immediately used their bodies to block the guns in front of them.
After giving the things, Taotao fell asleep immediately.
Only the occasional rise and fall of his chest confirmed that Zhuang Mingxu was still alive.
Zhuang Mingxu placed Taotao in the arms of Zhuang Aiyi, who was like a frightened bird, and kissed his forehead. "Little daddy is in trouble. Daddy has to find a way to leave here together. Can you stay up and take care of your brother?"
"Okay, Aiyi, don't be afraid." Zhuang Aiyi's eyes were full of vigilance, but he held the small dagger in his boots in his hand and assured.
"Good boy." Zhuang Mingxu leaned over and kissed him again, then turned around and looked at the weapons Taotao took out with a few others.
Taotao didn't know the difference between the guns, so Zhuang Mingxu could only signal Lu Weiyi to take out the adjacent items based on the location of the guns in his space.
At this time, the only weapon besides a pistol, a rifle, some bullets, and a bomb.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at the things in front of him, thought for a while, and after taking two guns and some bullets, he directly disassembled the bomb and redistributed and reassembled the components inside.
"What are you going to do?" Lin Mo gestured to the others to hide the remaining guns and asked him.
"I'm going out to scout the terrain. We must break out tonight at the latest," Zhuang Mingxu said in an unquestionable tone.
"I'll go with you," Lin Mo lowered his voice, "I almost joined the special operations forces before, so my skills will definitely be no problem."
Zhuang Mingxu thought about the people in other rooms. Among the best people, Antonio was called away, Ning Yuan was injured, and Li Zhuang was in a room alone. There was really no better candidate at the moment.
"Let him go, he is indeed the most powerful among us," Zhou Nan also said.
"Okay, but it will be too obvious if two of us go this way. Let's ask someone nearby to come over later," said Zhuang Mingxu.
Lin Mo nodded and said, "Brother Liu is next to us, I'll talk to him."
As he spoke, he called out Liu Yang's name, and then started knocking on the wall.
Those who knew what they were doing were silent for a moment.
Not long after, Zhuang Mingxu prepared the weapons and asked Lin Mo to choose a weapon that suits him, and then the two walked towards the door.
The two of them quietly opened the glass on the door, and then Zhuang Mingxu leaned over and carefully observed the surrounding areas where surveillance cameras might be installed. After making sure there were none, he stretched out his entire arm and used a piece of wire to pry open the lock on the door with one hand and restored it.
The place they were in happened to be the passage between two adjacent venues. The front venue was where the suffering mutants were imprisoned, and the back venue should be where ordinary people lived.
If you listen carefully, you can hear the man's laughter and the woman's screams and cries.
The entire aquarium is built in an enclosed manner and the light inside is maintained entirely by electricity. There are no lights on here, and one can only see some unclear shadows relying on the light coming through from the front and back.
After confirming that it was safe, Zhuang Mingxu reopened the door next to him and said, "Just one person can go over and cooperate with them. Try not to let anyone notice that there are fewer people inside. We will be back soon."
Liu Yang looked around and looked at Xu Sa.
"Change someone else. Lao Li is very impressed by Xu Sa. Who knows if he will come over to tease her?" Zhuang Mingxu said directly. Liu Yang is the only one in this room who can communicate with other rooms and stabilize others at critical moments. If he can't be replaced, then...
Zhuang Mingxu looked at the Gu Qingyue brothers.
"I'll go," said Gu Qingji.
No one had a choice in the situation at this moment. Gu Qingyue held his hand tightly for a moment, then nodded and let go.
"Brother Qingji, give this to the two children," Lu Xi on the side took out a handful of chocolate candies from his pocket and handed them over, "It's past lunch time, I don't know if they will give us anything to eat so that the children won't go hungry."
Lu Xi usually earns a good income from his research, and Lu Weiyi loves him very much, so he is always needed for everything. Lu Xi often carries candy energy bars in his pocket, and he will chew them when he is at a loss.
Now when there is no food to eat, it can be used as an emergency. He thinks that as an adult, he can endure it with everyone, but the two children are too young, he himself can't bear to touch it, so he is thinking about how to pass it to them.
Gu Qingji nodded and quickly moved to the next room.
"Otherwise, I will seduce Lao Li and go over there to check out the situation." Xu Sa said anxiously when he saw that they were unfamiliar with the environment and did not dare to move even with their weapons.
"Sa...Brother Sa..." Liu Rui immediately shouted from across the room.
"It's not that serious yet. The area of the aquarium is fixed and it's not that big. We'll each go in a different direction and come back soon," Zhuang Mingxu said before locking their room again.
He took another look at the three people in the next room and saw that Ning Yuan had removed the glass and handed him two crystal core guns from inside.
"Dean gave it to me when he came to treat me," Ning Yuan laughed, "Be careful."
Zhuang Mingxu gave Lin Mo a hand and pointed in the direction they came from, "This place should be in a circular shape. I saw it when I came here. The entrance is also the exit. You go forward and I go backward, all the way to the exit, and then we will each return here."
Lin Mo nodded, and nimbly returned to the passage first.
Zhuang Mingxu also walked carefully towards the next location.
Compared to Lin Mo, Zhuang Mingxu, who had been paralyzed for a year and had just recovered, had indeed seen a lot of decline in physical fitness. He was almost discovered several times when he was moving among ordinary people.
Fortunately, they were more focused on the fun in front of them and stopped paying attention if they didn't notice anything unusual.
Ordinary people live in an area called the Penguin House, except there are no penguins there. Instead, a row of houses are built in a ring using rockery and stones combined with the abilities of psychics.
The water area enclosed in the middle should be reserved for penguins to rest, but there are no penguins now and it is summer, so there is no ice to serve as a passage, so they simply used a few floating piers.
The unclear thing in the middle is connected and cannot be moved too much, but it is also unstable. If you don't keep the balance well, it is easy to fall into the water.
In the water, there are fish from other pavilions swimming around, looking harmless and pretty.
By the water, several men were suppressing two women. Amid the women's ear-piercing screams and cries, they kept saying disgusting things and occasionally reached out to take advantage of them.
A short-haired woman was pinned down with half of her body suspended in the air. She struggled and looked at the water surface defensively, "No, let me go, no...you beasts..."
"Haha...are you scared now? You need to be taught a lesson, otherwise you won't know your own situation and still act like a big shot in front of us." A man said, and he pushed half of the woman's body into the water. Then the fish in the water swam over in groups as if attracted by the bait.
