Death that cannot be escaped (VI) He is also the framework of the novel...
Is this young man in front of me also part of the framework of the novel?
I said goodbye to him, and he turned around and waved to me while holding the basketball. The sunlight was shining from above his head, making every strand of his hair golden.
…
It was ten years later that I met him again. During this period, a raider appeared.
The change the Raiders brought this time was a natural disaster.
An asteroid collided with the Earth, causing the Earth's technological civilization to regress by a hundred years.
The viruses carried by the asteroids infected the animals and plants on Earth, causing uncontrollable mutations, but humans are insensitive to the viruses, which has led to a super-strong evolution for all creatures except humans.
After losing the help of hot weapons, humans can only fight against it with cold weapons.
Human life is as tenacious as a seed. Even a disaster of this magnitude has not led to the extinction of human civilization.
The living people quickly gathered powerful forces and began to study the mutated plants and animals in the outside world and make use of them.
After the animals and plants mutated, they became extremely powerful. With human strength, it was impossible to defeat an entire mutated plant alone, so the base was born.
I established the largest human base on Earth, the Ring Star Base, to provide shelter for ordinary humans, and formed laboratories and hunting teams to develop the uses of these animals and plants as much as possible and improve the environment for residents.
Therefore, more and more surviving humans came to seek refuge after hearing the name of my base.
Lu Renjia's family was also a small team that came to seek refuge.
But, meeting again after ten years was not pleasant.
That day, I led the team to hunt a super mutant plant with a danger level assessment of S. When we were carrying the spoils back to the base, we heard the sound of fighting.
We hurried to the source of the sound.
From a distance, we saw a family of four confronting a mutated pea seedling. After the mutation, the pea seedling could reach a height of more than 50 meters and be as thick as seven or eight people hugging it.
Although it is not poisonous, it is extremely strong and will attack its enemies by whipping them.
When we arrived, we just saw the pea sprouts whipping towards the family of four below.
We were still some distance away from the pea sprout and couldn't lend a helping hand, so we could only watch helplessly as the pea sprout came heavily towards the four people below.
The young man, who was the older brother, subconsciously took a step forward and blocked the pea seedlings with his Tang sword in hand, while the parents both subconsciously reached out to their younger son.
When their hands collided on their youngest son's collar, they realized the problem, but it was too late.
In the blink of an eye, the Tang sword had already collided heavily with the pea seedling, and the sharp Tang sword cut the pea seedling's epidermis. The pain stimulated the mutated pea seedling, and the pea seedling began to go crazy.
The emerald green stems and leaves changed from pulling to sweeping, and with just one move, the young man was heavily swept away.
In an instant, the young man's face lost all color and he spat out blood heavily. The blood turned into a handful of blood mist and floated in the air.
The parents and their young son, who was pulled out of danger by their parents, were safe and sound.
The pea sprouts took advantage of the situation and attacked, and its pair of fat leaves smashed down on the young man like a huge hammer.
Both parents drew their weapons and rushed forward.
But my team is faster than the two of them.
I flew forward, grabbed a machete, and chopped the pea leaves with one blow, and the team members followed closely behind.
Some people joined me in resisting the attack of the pea seedlings, some people went around the roots and began to attack the fragile rhizomes of the pea seedlings, and some people stepped forward to take away the seriously injured young man who fell to the ground.
My teammates and I have experienced hundreds of battles and have a good understanding of each other. The danger level of this pea seedling is not ranked high among the mutant animals and plants we hunt. In just a few minutes, we dealt with this huge mutant pea seedling.
It was not until I returned to the ground that I saw that the face of the seriously injured young man was very familiar, especially that pair of extremely beautiful phoenix eyes. Even though I had never seen what they looked like when they grew up in twenty reincarnations, I could vaguely recognize their outlines when they were young.
Lu Renjia...
I looked him in the eye.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
He looked up at me, his face as pale as paper, but he still smiled and thanked me, "Thank you, you saved me again."
"It's just a small favor."
I looked at the doctor.
The doctor had just finished giving him some simple first aid. "It's not a big deal. He just broke two ribs and injured his internal organs. He won't die. If he takes good care of himself, he won't have any sequelae."
The doctor patted his shoulder appreciatively.
"You have a pretty good physique. If an ordinary person were to bear the mutant pea sprouts for a while, he would probably exhale more than he inhale."
The doctor glanced at his parents, seemed to want to say something, and then closed his mouth.
I know what the doctor is trying to say.
Their youngest son was standing far away from the pea seedlings. Normally, he would have been slightly affected. At most, he would have been scratched on the skin by the splashing gravel.
Compared with the younger son, they should work together with the older son to fight against the pea sprout's powerful attack.
When the parents encountered danger, they both reached out to their younger son and made a decision in a split second to take their younger son to a safe place first.
People's hearts are always biased. It's not a big deal at normal times, but at this time, it seems particularly deadly.
If they had been more rational, or had loved their older son a little more, they would not have gone to rescue their younger son at the same time, leaving the older son alone to fight the attack of the mutant pea seedling.
Even if there was someone else to help him carry it, he wouldn't be injured so seriously.
However, the four of them are a family after all, and outsiders can't say anything.
The doctor remained silent because he thought of this.
Outsiders can see this truth clearly, so how could Lu Renjia, who had just experienced a life-and-death crisis, not understand it?
I looked at Lu Renjia, his face was still pale. Facing his concerned and apologetic parents, and his pale-faced, tearful brother who was anxiously asking about his condition, he had a faint smile on his lips. Even though he was still injured, he was still comforting his family.
He is an excellent and outstanding son to his parents, a safe haven for his younger brother, and the new pillar supporting the family.
He told his parents and brother that he was fine, but his eyes showed that its owner was a little dazed.
What happened just now really left a thorn in his heart.
I walked up to him and asked, "What are your plans? Do you want to come to my base?"
He replied, "We are planning to go to the circular base."
I extended my hand to him, "You are quite skilled. When you recover from your injury, join my team."
He was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand and shook mine. This time his movements were much more skillful than before.
"It's my great pleasure."
