Chapter 216
Tang Yu'an looked at Zhou Qi blankly for three seconds before finally reacting.
"Wow, Xiaoqi brother, you're awake!"
Zhou Qi opened his mouth slightly, but still couldn't make a sound.
Tang Yu'an then discovered that although his face had lost its petrification, other parts of his body still seemed to be petrified.
"Not quite well yet?"
He lifted Zhou Qi's clothes to check.
Zhou Qi couldn't help but stare as he watched the young man lift up his shirt and put his head into his clothes to study.
Soon, the skin on my chest felt the warmth and tingling of the boy's breath, as well as the throbbing sensations brought by the touch of his slightly cool fingertips.
He couldn't speak, and his partially petrified body couldn't move, so he could only let Tang Yu'an do whatever he wanted.
The blush on his cheeks was spreading to his neck, and Zhou Qi finally closed his eyes helplessly.
Tang Yu'an focused on checking the area near Zhou Qi's heart.
Perhaps because he performed the light healing technique every day, the area from Zhou Qi's collarbone to his lower abdomen had basically recovered. The further it extended to his limbs, the deeper the petrification became.
"Although he hasn't recovered completely, at least he's regained consciousness!"
Tang Yu'an smiled and said, "That's great!"
He hugged Zhou Qi again and snuggled tightly into his chest, as if he was holding a treasure that had been lost and found again.
Zhou Qi looked at him with lowered eyebrows, his eyes filled with helplessness and deep heartache.
He has been conscious for more than a month.
Therefore, he knew clearly the efforts Tang Yu'an had made to save him.
I had been unable to comprehend the light-based skills for such a long time before, but now, in order to save him, I have completely mastered it in just over a month...
Zhou Qi's eyes softened.
Unfortunately, he couldn't move now, couldn't respond to Tang Yu'an's hug, nor could he touch his head and tell him that he was back.
Tang Yu'an raised his head and met Zhou Qi's gentle and deep eyes.
Looking at the eyes dancing in the moonlight, he didn't know why, but he felt his heartbeat quicken a little.
Are you too happy?
He closed his arms again and hugged Zhou Qi tighter.
The heart that had been hanging in the air for more than a month finally fell halfway at this moment.
The young man looked up at Zhou Qi, his clear and beautiful eyes filled with hope and pleading, "You must get better soon."
Zhou Qi blinked hard.
I will.
Understanding the meaning of his eyes, Tang Yu'an smiled.
At this moment, he saw a new message pop up on the message board.
【Message Board (Admin Channel)】
【Liangzai Zhou】: Go to bed quickly.
0.0
Yes, after Xiaoqi regains consciousness, you can communicate with him using the message board!
"No, I want to stay a little longer."
Tang Yu'an snuggled up to him as before, yawned and said, "I haven't rested enough..."
After performing the seventh light healing technique, he felt as if his physical and mental strength had been overdrawn. He felt tired and lazy and didn't want to move much.
Zhou Qi didn't say anything else. He closed his eyes and continued to resist the invasion of the spiritual insects.
only……
After a while, he opened his eyes again and looked down at the boy with some distress.
Just take a break, can you please take your hand away first?
After recovering from the petrified state, his senses were naturally sharper than before, so the boy's unconscious actions could be said to be quite torturous for Zhou Qi.
However, looking at the top of the boy's head, Zhou Qi finally closed his eyes helplessly.
Zhou Qi spent more than half a month in such happy troubles before he finally recovered his ability to speak.
“An An…”
Zhou Qi hadn't spoken for nearly two months, and his vocal cords hadn't fully recovered yet, so he sounded a little hoarse.
Tang Yu'an was finishing the last light healing technique of the day when he suddenly heard his voice and was stunned.
Then, the tears that had been held back for two months finally burst out of his eyes uncontrollably.
"Can you speak now?" he choked.
Zhou Qi nodded slightly. He raised his arm and wanted to touch his hair, but found that he couldn't do it.
His fingers were still petrified.
Tang Yu'an noticed this quickly and hurriedly rolled up his sleeves. He saw that his arm had returned to flesh and blood, but his forearm to fingers were still hard as stone.
"Not quite well yet?"
Tang Yu'an lifted Zhou Qi's clothes and gently pressed and stroked his body with his fingers to confirm whether there was any part of him that had not returned to normal.
Zhou Qi couldn't help but close his eyes in silence.
He felt that in the past two months, he had become accustomed to Tang Yu'an's touch, and he no longer blushed, his heart beat fast, and his blood rushed to his chest like before, until...
Tang Yu'an began to pull down his pants.
Zhou Qi was startled and stepped back subconsciously, but found that his legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead and were completely out of his control.
Then, Tang Yu'an "succeeded".
…
…………(//o///o//)
Tang Yu'an's hands wandered over the parts of his body where he had regained consciousness, bringing him unimaginable sensory stimulation.
Finally, he heard the young man's voice: "Brother Xiaoqi, your thigh below the middle hasn't recovered yet. Can you walk?"
When the boy looked up at him, Zhou Qi shook his head mechanically.
Then……
The boy patted his butt again and said, "It seems that your hips and buttocks have recovered. I wonder if you can sit down... Hey, Xiaoqi brother, why is your face so red?"
Zhou Qi turned his head away and said, "No, nothing..."
Tang Yu'an looked at him, initially thinking he was sick, but soon realized something and blinked, "Brother Xiaoqi, are you shy?"
Zhou Qi: “…”
He finally couldn't help it and glared at Tang Yu'an in shame and anger.
The boy wasn't afraid of him at all, and even said jokingly, "We're both boys, what's the big deal? At worst, I'll let you touch me back later."
Zhou Qi: “…”
His heart skipped a beat at first, then he slowly came to his senses.
An An didn't have any strange thoughts about him at all, so she could say such words so calmly.
Even in An An's mindset, perhaps he couldn't accept that he was also a man...
The blush on his face gradually faded.
Zhou Qi calmed down. He looked at Tang Yu'an deeply, then nodded and turned his head away again.
Noticing the change in his expression, Tang Yu'an was a little puzzled, but after hearing Zhou Qi's response, a sense of inexplicable emotion rose in his heart again.
He imagined, if he let Xiaoqi touch it back...
Tang Yu'an swallowed and quickly dismissed the image in his mind. Brother Xiaoqi would never do that. He was just talking casually.
Then he leaned closer to Zhou Qi, thinking that he was disappointed because his body had not fully recovered, and comforted him: "It's already a big improvement. You can finally lie down and sleep tonight."
Zhou Qi nodded randomly.
Tang Yu'an bought a wheelchair from the plane store, and then carefully moved Zhou Qi's body so that he could sit on it.
I still couldn't bend my legs, but at least I could sit down.
Zhou Qi closed his eyes and circulated his mind again, continuing to use the wood-type spiritual energy to resist the erosion of the earth spirit insects, and deconstructing it bit by bit into his own strength.
It wasn't until the next day that he finally pushed the petrified area back to his calf, allowing his knee to bend normally.
-
Deserted city home.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi stayed in the alternate dimension for two months, but on this side, it was only the morning of the third day.
Xie Chaori woke up from his sleep and looked at the room in front of him which still felt unfamiliar to him. He looked at his palm and touched his human body which still had body temperature.
Only after confirming that he had really turned back into a human did he breathe a sigh of relief and return to reality from the suffocating nightmare.
During the period after waking up, Xie Chaori finally gradually realized what amazing changes had taken place in him.
Because of his status, he is exposed to more things than Hongli Chihao.
So he knew that for those with special abilities who suffered backlash, there was basically no possibility of returning to normal.
Once backlash occurs, it is almost irreversible.
At least Xie Chaori had never seen an example of successfully reversing a backlash, but now... after being seriously injured and backlashed, he actually regained his human form.
This is incredible!
Could this also be the power of the Shangshen Cult?
If this is true, then the Shangshen Sect may be able to attract a large number of high-level people to join.
After all, backlash has been following him since the middle stage of the sixth level. He was lucky to have successfully reached the late stage of the sixth level, but he still suffered backlash when he was seriously injured and in danger.
However, even if most people know the consequences, the pursuit of power will still drive those with special abilities to continue to improve and enhance themselves.
Just like he had warned Hongli before, but she didn't listen.
Xie Chaori looked at his hands.
He could sense that something inside him had disappeared, but... a ball of sand condensed in his hand and was quickly shattered by him.
He did not lose his supernatural powers, but his realm fell.
From the late sixth level, he fell to the late fourth level, a drop of two major realms.
But...it's still better than losing your life or being a stone forever.
When Xie Chaori sensed the changes in his body, Old Li also walked out of the bedroom. He looked energetic and did not look like an eighty-year-old man at all.
"morning."
"Good morning." Xie Chaori responded, then got up from the floor and made his bed.
"It seems that you have almost recovered?" said Old Li.
"I think it's about 60 to 70 percent done." Xie Chaori said, "The medicine Boss An gave me is very effective."
Old Li nodded and went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Xie Chaori followed behind him and was still amazed at how skillfully he used the gas stove.
"Are all these things exchanged from the mall?" he finally couldn't help but ask.
"What else?"
“Does the God of Commerce really exist?”
Old Li glanced at him and said, "You have too many problems. If you have recovered, find a way to repay your debt as soon as possible."
Xie Chaori couldn't help but sigh.
Although he was still a little weak, he couldn't help feeling pressured when he thought of the 1 million points.
When will it take to pay it back?
However, he decided to upgrade his level to level 5 first, so that he could post on the forum and use the trading area.
Of course, what's more important is to see if Lu Rulan is actually Chi Hao...
Yesterday, the outermost wall of the deserted city home was finally built, but the residents and construction robots were not idle.
Following Old Li's orders, they built a small hut at the entrance of the wall for foreign trade, which served as a "deserted city grocery store."
The Deserted City Home will not be open to the public, but Room 501 will remain as a place for transactions with residents.
After the flood receded, the residents of the deserted city homes could not help but feel uneasy.
They don't want to leave, but they want to find family and friends to move to a deserted home, like Bashi.
His younger brother Batu went to Jufeng Town before the flood came, and now he didn't know what the situation was, so he decided to wait until the construction of his home was completed and then leave temporarily to look for him.
But before he went out to look for it, Batu, as one of the first residents to return to the deserted city, discovered the existence of the deserted city home.
This is mainly because the deserted city home has expanded too far.
The places where Old Li, Granny Guo and Lin Zhen lived before were already included, and even Tie Jin's house was on the edge.
However, the Tiejin family has become accustomed to living in Building 1, so they have no intention of going back.
This location was originally the activity area of Batu Bashi.
So, when Batu returned home and found that his brother and the big black dog were gone, he hurried out to look for them. As a result, he soon saw the new wall that was more than three meters high.
He could see that the wall was newly built.
So out of curiosity, he climbed up the wall, but as soon as he reached the top, he was discovered by the home patrol.
The patrol team is composed of people with special abilities, and is personally formed by the most powerful Lan Lin.
They received the best treatment, wore equipment and weapons made of mutant metal, and after studying and discussing in the communication room every night, they had become very different from before.
At least, it is not comparable to Batu who has been starving for almost two months in Jufeng Mountain.
He had no power to resist and was directly brought in front of Old Li.
Seeing the old man, with whom he used to have a very bad relationship, appear in front of him surrounded by people, looking at him with a smile like an old fox, Batu was so scared that he lost all his courage.
The reason why Old Li was laughing was not because he had caught Batu, but because the surveillance he had set up was effective.
Before Tang Yu'an left, he gave him ten optical computers at once.
He placed these light computers outside his home, and if they detected any outsiders, they would immediately notify him and the patrol team leader.
There is no Internet in the home, but by relying on the optical computer to transmit signals, free communication can be achieved.
Now with optical computer monitoring, the security of the home has been improved to a higher level. How can Old Li not be happy?
As for Batu...
He glanced at it coldly and asked someone to call Bashi over - of course, now with a computer, finding people is much more convenient than before.
The patrol leader spoke to the computer.
At the same time, in a communication station a few hundred meters away, a small light computer ball that was stationary on a platform flew up.
It flew to the nearby construction site, found Bashi, and completed a video call with the patrol captain.
Bashi was stunned at first, then he couldn't help but be ecstatic.
He quickly put down his work and ran to pick up his brother. When he arrived, Old Li had already left.
Batu was very frightened, but he couldn't help being happy when he saw his brother.
His brother just comforted him a few words and then began to tell him how Old Li and the owner of the garden saved him and took him in during the flood.
That would be fine, but why should I tell him the story of how the owner of the home saved Old Li?
And it was described in much more detail than his own salvation?
What's even more outrageous is that as he listened, he felt that Boss An was really a good person, and a feeling of respect and gratitude arose spontaneously!
Let’s not talk about how Bashi educated his younger brother on “love for homeland”. In addition to Bashi, the patrol team of Huangcheng Homeland quickly captured several more invaders.
However, since the first group of people who returned were residents of the deserted city who had left to seek refuge, they were all old acquaintances.
Lin Zhen quickly tricked these people in and went through the check-in procedures together.
Anyway, once they enter the home, they are bound by mysterious rules and forces, and these people cannot cause trouble. In this case, it is better to keep them under control under our own noses.
Of course, even if we drive them away, they may not want to leave.
In just two months, the changes that have taken place in the residents of the deserted city home are astonishing.
Even if brothers like Bashi and Batu stand together, others will misunderstand that Bashi is the younger brother and Batu is the older brother.
Because of these two months, Bashi has been fed up with fat and strong body by his family, and his face has become round.
In order to maintain hygiene, he shaves and trims his nails every day, and changes into clean clothes after work.
Besides that, his whole demeanor had become calmer, more positive and cheerful, and the gloomy and sinister feeling he had before had faded to almost nothing.
Batu was very confused about this.
Bashi thought for a moment, patted his shoulder, and said, "When you live in a peaceful and stable environment, in a group where you don't have to worry about being hurt or robbed, you will probably become like me."
Of course, in addition to this, gathering in chat rooms every night and regularly watching pre-disaster movies and TV shows also have a huge impact on them.
The broadening of their horizons has brought about tremendous changes in the mental outlook of the residents.
Batu was skeptical, but looking at Bashi and other familiar residents and the changes happening to them, he realized that this might be true...
"So I can live here from now on, like you?"
"Of course, but before that..."
Bashi looked at his brother, who was dirty and looked like a savage, with disdain and said, "You need to cut your hair, beard and nails first, and then take a bath."
"Oh my god, how long has it been since you last showered?"
Batu listened to his brother's disdain and wanted to say that you were obviously the same as me before, but looking at Bashi now, he couldn't help but envy him.
As he listened to his brother continue to tell him everything about his home in the deserted city, he was shocked beyond words.
In the end, he only had one thought left: he wanted it too! This felt like the life a human should live!
-
Alien cabin.
Tang Yu'an pushed Zhou Qi in a wheelchair into the original yard.
Now it is autumn in the other dimension, the trees are beginning to turn yellow, and the wood-type spiritual energy in the giant forest is not as strong, so there is no need to stay in the giant forest all the time.
Besides, Zhou Qi's other parts have now returned to normal except for his limbs, so it is inevitable that he will feel uncomfortable if he stays in the giant tree forest.
Tang Yu'an pushed him into the cabin. There was an extra bed in the cabin, which had been made by the housekeeping robot.
"Brother Xiaoqi, do you want to lie down on the bed for a while?" he asked.
Zhou Qi nodded, then sat on the bed with the help of Tang Yu'an, and then slowly moved and lay down.
He sighed comfortably, feeling his aching muscles relieved.
Tang Yu'an moved him to a different position, covered him with a blanket, cooked some rice and porridge, then helped him sit up and fed him with a spoon.
Zhou Qi felt a little awkward, "I can do it myself."
Tang Yu'an shook his head and said, "When I was sick before, you took care of me in the same way. Let me take care of you for once."
Looking at the boy's clear eyes filled with smile, Zhou Qi finally gave up refusing.
He glanced at Tang Yu'an, then took a mouthful of porridge. Although there was no sugar in the porridge, he could taste the sweetness, which permeated his heart.
"You've worked hard in these two months." Zhou Qi said in a low voice.
Tang Yu'an put down the empty bowl, then squeezed onto the bed and sat next to him. After a while, he also lay down lazily.
"You scared me," he said suddenly. "It wasn't as scary as last time, but it still scared me."
"I'm sorry..." Zhou Qi's voice was filled with guilt.
"Get well soon, and I'll forgive you!"
Tang Yu'an turned over, lay on his chest and looked at him, saying aggrievedly: "Do you know how I got through these two months?"
"Look, I've lost weight." He touched his still chubby cheeks, but found that his words were not convincing, so he had to put his hands down.
He continued to mutter, "I haven't eaten your cooking for two months. I feel like life has lost its meaning!"
Just as Zhou Qi was about to tell him to stop talking nonsense, the robot Xiao Jin's head came over and said aggrievedly, "Master, is the food I cooked not delicious?"
The electronic eye on the panel also changed to: QAQ.
Tang Yu'an: "..."
He coughed and said helplessly, "It's still quite delicious. Go outside first and come in when I call you."
"Okay, master." Xiao Jin's head went outside the hut.
Tang Yu'an withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhou Qi with a playful look.
The seventeen-year-old boy has lost his childishness, but he is still not a complete adult. His temperament between youthfulness and maturity gives him a charm that is difficult to describe in words.
For the first time, Tang Yu'an discovered that Zhou Qi was handsome.
He was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked away, forgetting this strange and inappropriate thought.
Seeing that Zhou Qi dared to make fun of him, Tang Yu'an's eyes rolled, and he suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Xiaoqi, let me give you a massage!"
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, the teasing in Zhou Qi's eyes disappeared, and a flash of panic passed by.
"No……"
This situation cannot...
He said with a serious face: "My body has not fully recovered yet, so it is not suitable for massage."
Tang Yu'an thought about it and felt the same way.
It would be bad if the invisible parts of the body were still petrified and broke when he pressed them.
He had no choice but to give up.
At night, after using purification magic to cleanse the bodies of both of them, he changed into pajamas and lay down next to Zhou Qi.
"Good night, Xiaoqi brother~"
"good evening."
That night, Tang Yuan slept particularly soundly because Zhou Qi came back to his side.
When Tang Yu'an woke up again, he found that Zhou Qi was stretching out his left hand and carefully moving his hand away from his abdominal muscles.
Hmm? Is Xiaoqi's hand healed?
Tang Yu'an was delighted at first, but then he was quickly attracted by something else. He asked curiously, "Brother Xiaoqi, why is it bulging here?"
As he said this, he poked it with his finger.
The author has something to say:
Xiaoqi: No, this is not a life for human beings...
