Chi Yanhuai pursed his lips when he saw this scene, and stepped forward to heal their wounds. Lu Sikai also stepped forward to wake up a soldier and asked what happened here after they left.
The soldier coughed weakly a few times and said tremblingly: "Not long after you left, the unconscious woman suddenly woke up. Not only did her strength increase, but her speed and defense also increased. It was like... a monster in the water." When the soldier said this, there was a lingering fear on his face.
Tang Anan looked around and asked, "Where did she run to?"
The soldier replied: "He ran downstairs."
Tang Anan nodded thoughtfully. After Chi Yanhuai healed the last person, he stood up and staggered. Tang Anan supported him in time and took out a pill from the space and stuffed it into Chi Yanhuai's mouth. "Brother Yanhuai, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Chi Yanhuai took the pill and soon felt much better. He had just used his supernatural powers too frequently, and the long period of concentration had made his mind a little unstable.
Lu Sikai looked at Tang Anan's concern for Chi Yanhuai, walked up and interrupted: "Anan, the girl is awake." Lu Sikai inserted himself between the two of them, and Tang Anan did not notice Lu Sikai's fleeting emotion.
The girl was indeed awake. When Tang Anan looked over, she was sitting on the ground rubbing her eyes, with a confused look on her face as if she had just woken up.
Has consciousness returned?
"Little sister." Tang Anan squatted in front of the little girl and gave her a friendly smile. "Can you tell me about how you brought that fish back?"
The girl no longer looked confused. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then began to speak.
That day, she was fishing in the river with other people as usual. When she pulled the fish out of the river, she found that the fish looked very good and did not look like a fish. She called others over to let them see what kind of fish it was.
Everyone shook their heads, saying they had never seen such a fish.
"I've never seen a fish like this before. I think we should release it."
"Yes, there's a saying that goes, the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is, let alone this fish of unknown origin."
"It would be bad if I brought it back and hurt someone else."
The girl bit her lower lip and responded, "I understand." The girl looked hesitantly at the fish that was so beautiful that it looked fake.
Should I release animals? If I don’t feel like releasing them, don’t want to release them, then I can’t!
The people around her had dispersed, minding their own business. The girl looked at the fish and suddenly met its eyes. Her eyes were no longer clear, and she murmured, "Take me back... Take me back..." She placed the fish at the bottom of the basket and covered it with the other fish. After returning home, the girl placed the fish in a fish tank, watching over it whenever she could.
At this time, the water had begun to rise slowly.
One day, when she returned home from dinner, she found a group of people gathered in front of the fish tank. Someone saw the girl coming and shouted, "She's back!"
Everyone's eyes turned to the girl, and someone spoke first: "It's you! If you hadn't brought that fish back, no one would have died! And the water wouldn't have risen!"
The girl's expression flickered, and she stared at the man with red eyes, "Impossible!" The girl pushed the crowd away and rushed to the fish tank. The fish had disappeared, leaving only blood and debris on the ground.
The girl's body swayed and tears fell, "How could this happen...?" The girl completely lost consciousness.
-
"That's it..." The girl's voice was not finished yet. Her expression became dazed and her mind began to become unclear again. She murmured: "Take me back... Take me back..."
Seeing this, Tang Anan slashed at the girl with a knife, and the girl fainted again. She gently laid the girl flat on the ground.
"An An, do you want to find the location of the fish directly?" Lu Sikai asked.
Tang Anan nodded, "Yes." A few seconds later, Tang Anan's golden thread spread to the entire base, and finally found the big fish in the laboratory, with a woman lying next to it, her life or death unknown.
Tang Anan retracted the gold thread. "In the lab, let's go. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be over soon." Tang Anan led everyone downstairs to the lab. Some of the monsters in the water had already disappeared.
It seems that the black bead should be something like a core. The fish itself controls some of it, and the other part is controlled by the core.
Tang Anan understood, and they rushed to the laboratory as quickly as possible, fearing that something unexpected would happen. When they arrived at the laboratory, Tang Anan immediately controlled the golden thread to kill the fish.
Chen Ruolan was obviously relieved, she said: "It was a close call." The stone in Chen Ruolan's heart fell to the ground.
"She's dead." Chi Yanhuai said as he stepped forward to check if the woman was alive or dead.
"It's to be expected. After all, he was controlled by a spirit animal. His sudden strength might have been due to this fish." Tang Anan stretched and continued, "But that girl was an exception. She didn't die in the end, she just lost consciousness. I'll leave the rest to you."
Chi Yanhuai couldn't deny it and immediately went outside to negotiate and deal with the remaining matters. Without a leader, the monsters in the water ran around everywhere, but the water still didn't recede.
"Ruolan, keep that black bead safe. It might be useful in the future," Tang Anan said. The black bead was in that woman's room because she saw it when they were doing experiments with fish, and she took it home in a fit of madness.
"Okay, I understand." Chen Ruolan responded and went out to help.
Tang Anan yawned again, looked at Lu Sikai, and said, "Why didn't you go to help?"
Lu Sikai curled the corners of his mouth and said, "You seem to be too sleepy. What if you fall asleep here?" He rubbed Tang Anan's head.
Tang Anan glanced at him suspiciously, "Then what can you do here?"
"I can lend you a shoulder when you want to sleep." Lu Sikai squatted in front of Tang Anan, "Come up, I'll take you back first."
Tang Anan hesitated for a moment, but still went up. She found a comfortable position on Lu Sikai's back and lay down. Tang Anan, who was already very sleepy, fell asleep in a short while.
Lu Sikai carried Tang Anan steadily on his back and walked towards the parking lot.
"An An, you..." Lu Sikai shut up before he could finish his words. He glanced at Tang An An and breathed a sigh of relief. She had fallen asleep, so it was good that she didn't hear it.
Chi Yanhuai, who was busy on the other side, looked at the scene and pursed his lips, but still went to rescue others. With their help, the water quickly receded. Except for a few people who died and could not be saved, no one else was seriously injured. This was thanks to Chi Yanhuai's help.
Tang Anan was placed in the passenger seat by Lu Sikai, and he sat in the driver's seat and started the car. He did not wait for others. There were enough cars parked, so there was no need to worry about the rest of the people not being able to sit. They got on the car for the return trip.
