The New Neighbor Text Chapter 028



028

Fire Scorpion is shy. It was only when it suddenly became stronger that it flew high and far away in excitement. When it saw the two teammates on the first floor, it instantly disappeared back into Meng Li's body.

The scene he just saw still remained in Xu Qiao's eyes.

To be honest, Xu Qiao is also a little afraid of creatures like scorpions, because the spirit body of the fire scorpion was too cute when it came to her to treat Meng Li. Only then did Xu Qiao overcome her fear of the appearance of the fire scorpion, and soon they started to help each other again. teammate camaraderie.

Just now, she looked up at the Fire Scorpion's abdomen for the first time, but before her eyes could observe the details of the Scorpion's abdomen, she was attracted to it by a pair of crimson wings.

It was a pair of broad wings that resembled those of a bird, but the Fire Scorpion's wings did not have soft feathers, but were instead covered with metallic armor, which was in the same vein as the Fire Scorpion's deep red and shiny carapace.

There is less warmth and softness, and more hardness and sharpness.

Xu Qiao turned to Qin Chi. Regardless of his age, temperament or occupation as a military school teacher, he made people think that he was knowledgeable and might be able to answer her confusion at this time.

Why can fire scorpions grow wings? Is it a secondary mutation of her spiritual body, like her lotus with extra petals?

Qin Chi responded cooperatively and said in a low voice: "I have not done in-depth research on the spiritual body. I only know that the spiritual body has genetic mutations like genes. This mutation usually appears when children are born or when they awaken the spiritual body. It may be possible that the spiritual body will mutate later after it has been stabilized, but I have never heard of it before."

Xu Qiao nodded.

It has only been more than a hundred years since mankind entered the new era. The first few decades were busy resisting the survival environment of the stable base of mutated creatures. Scientific research was focused on the development of supernatural weapons. Although generations of scholars continued to study the spiritual body , observation, discussion and analysis, but just like the official naming of the spiritual body can only be highly summarized, those academic reports are probably just the tip of the iceberg in human exploration of the spiritual body.

Grandma Meng is an ordinary person who knows less about the spiritual body. She usually doesn’t pay much attention to relevant information and is immersed in strong emotions. Although Grandma Meng saw her granddaughter’s spiritual body grow wings and fly out, she was not in the mood to do so. Think about what this means, including what might catalyze this change.

It doesn't matter if it has wings, it's still a scorpion, and those wings are not similar to the gorgeous phoenix wings.

Meng Li sat still, feeling the changes in her body and mental strength, and then she quietly unfolded her grandma's invisible left hand.

A soft stream of air flowed between her fingers, then dissipated silently.

All flying or speed mental bodies will awaken the wind power, either as the main power or as an auxiliary power.

Meng Li just silently felt, tried, and verified the new gains that would make ordinary superpowers ecstatic, without showing anything on his face.

"Go and have a rest. I'll call you when she wakes up."

Grandma Meng: "Then..."

Meng Li: "She doesn't want to tell me, so I'll just pretend I don't know."

Grandma Meng sighed: "She's afraid of you. It's uncomfortable. She is also a daughter of the Lin family. Others have grown up..."

Meng Li said calmly: "My surname is Meng. I have a grandma and a mother who take care of me. I live a good life."

Grandma Meng looked at her granddaughter who has always been independent and strong, not to mention those things . Having said that, he said tiredly: "Okay, you young people can discuss how to cure your mother's disease. I'll go to bed first and cook for you in the morning."

After the old lady returned to her room to rest, Meng Li sent the two teammates to Please come back.

Xu Qiao and Qin Chi acted as if they had never seen the fire scorpion with wings and said nothing about it.

Meng Li took the initiative and said: "My spiritual body may have been upgraded, and I also have wind powers."

He even told his teammates the big secret of his mother's animal transformation. As a thank you for their help, Meng Li was willing to give in all his trust.

Faced with this trust, Xu Qiao was flattered: "You, you don't have to tell us..."

Meng Li looked at her and asked, "Will you tell us?"

Xu Qiao immediately shook his head.

Meng Li looked at Qin Chi again.

Qin Chi said frankly: "I have also hidden some things from you. It is not convenient to talk about my personal affairs now, but I can guarantee that I will not reveal any secrets of my teammates to anyone unless I get your permission."

Xu Qiao didn't know if she was overthinking it, but she felt that Qin Chi's words had some profound meaning.

Qin Chi: "Maybe you don't need it, but I still want to share one of my secrets as an exchange of trust between teammates."

Two twenty-year-old teammates looked over at the same time.

Qin Chi smiled and said: "My mental body has also undergone changes. Although my level in the Mercenary Association is considered to be C level, I am actually already at the B level. I came to the southeast base to stay temporarily because I needed to hide it. The secret of the mental body's mutation."

Meng Li nodded calmly, as if teammate Qin's secret was of no importance.

Xu Qiao: "..."

Could it be that mental body mutation is not as rare as she thought? Otherwise, why would her two new teammates have this condition?

It's a secret if you have something that others don't have. Now that the three of them are the same, Xu Qiao no longer needs to hide it.

After all, they are teammates, and they will do missions together for at least the next two or three years, so that the two combat-type teammates know her treatment level, so that they can better control the rhythm when dealing with strange beasts.

With the decision made, Xu Qiao looked at Meng Li and released his lotus spirit body.

In the small living room on the second floor, Xu Qiao and Meng Li sat side by side on a double sofa, and Qin Chi sat on a single sofa on one side. When the Lotus spirit body came out, it landed in the open space between the three of them.

Four round green lotus leaves grow out of the swirling water mist, clustering around a double white lotus with pink in the middle.

The lotus leaves move automatically without wind, and their faint fragrance spreads around.

Lianhua, who was finally allowed to show her face openly, deliberately approached her neighbor who liked to buy flower baskets.

Qin Chi looked at the lotus petals within reach, smiled and praised: "It's beautiful."

It is not appropriate to praise a girl's spiritual body too much.

The fire dragon tried to bring its dragon head closer to the lotus in front of it, but unfortunately it couldn't even show a single dragon scale.

Lotus received praise from her neighbor's teammates and gently turned to Meng Li's side.

Meng Li was not a flower appreciator. She focused on the number of petals and looked at Xu Qiao in surprise: "There didn't seem to be so many petals before?"

Xu Qiao withdrew her beautiful spirit and said, "Yeah, I just graduated two years ago. It suddenly changed from eleven petals to thirty-three petals, and the level may have increased by one level, but I didn't dare to test it. "

Qin Chi: "It seems that we are very cautious."

Xu Qiao couldn't help but ask. He: "How does your spiritual body mutate?"

Qin Chi: "It has a bad temper and can easily hurt people, so I try not to let it out."

Xu Qiao understood: "Animal type?"

Qin Chi: "Yes, The unflattering kind, so as not to affect your perception of me, please allow me to keep it a secret."

Xu Qiao immediately thought of Meng Li's Scorpion, and Qin Chi was afraid that they would dislike them when there was a Scorpion in the team. , then his spiritual body must be a creature that is more unacceptable to most humans than a scorpion.

Xu Qiao stopped her thoughts from diverging in time. Some things are indeed more suitable to remain mysterious. She is very comfortable with Qin Chi now, but she doesn't want to have a not-so-pleasant spirit immediately appear in her mind when she sees him again in the future. body.

But he has wind energy, is he a bird?

Are there any "special" looking birds?

Qin Chi looked at her lowered eyelashes and suddenly asked, "Are you guessing my spiritual body?"

Xu Qiao's face turned red.

Qin Chi paused and said, "I can show you part of it."

Xu Qiao, who was curious but very polite, said, "No, it's okay."

Qin Chi stretched out his right hand towards her.

The man's hand was slender and white, with well-defined joints. Just when Xu Qiao and Meng Li looked over, a black claw suddenly appeared from the tip of Qin Chi's index finger.

The jet-black claw hook, which is more than ten centimeters long, is like a sharp sickle made of black alloy.

This looks like the hook of a bird's claw.

Xu Qiao lamented Qin Chi's caution and stinginess in his heart. He said it was only part of it, but not even a complete bird's claw was exposed. At the same time, he was deeply shocked by the strength of Qin Chi's mental body. He only had one claw. The hook is as sharp as a supernatural weapon made of alloy. How strong must the full strength of the spiritual body be?

A raptor among birds?

Qin Chi retracted one of the dragon nails from the dragon claw and said with a wry smile: "Last time I let it out, I almost hurt my friend."

The murderous fire dragon was blinded by its animal nature, and it sprayed fire to indistinguish between ourselves and the enemy.

Xu Qiao: "Is there any way to intervene?"

Qin Chi: "My professor friend suggested that I cultivate my moral character." Xu Qiao suddenly realized, and finally understood why he was living like a retired military school teacher.

The three teammates finished sharing the secret , late at night is not suitable for other social interactions, Meng Li and Xu Qiao stayed on the second floor to rest, while Qin Chi went to the sofa on the first floor.

At around seven o'clock in the morning, when Meng Li persuaded his two teammates to go to work first, Meng Qiuyan woke up in the room.

Meng Qiuyan was born in an ordinary family in the Third Ring Road. Before the age of sixteen, she was bright and generous, and was very popular among her peers. She accidentally awakened the poisonous scorpion spirit body at the age of sixteen. All the male and female classmates who had been around her left. Rumors about her began to spread in the alumni circle and neighbors. Some people even dug up the story of a murderer and a mistress in the Meng family's ancestors. fact".

During that summer vacation, Meng Qiuyan barely left home.

Then, she enrolled in the Third Military Academy in the Second Ring Road with her excellent liberal arts scores and special "poison" ability. Because her family could not afford the huge tuition, Meng Qiuyan could only sign a contract with the third military academy to serve in the army for ten years after graduation. contract.

After joining the Guards, Meng Qiuyan met Lin's father. Her passionate love restored her vitality, while her lovelorn relationship made her even more silent.

More than twenty years later, the only thing that remains unchanged is her stunning beauty.

After learning what happened last night from her daughter, Meng Qiuyan looked at Xu Qiao and Qin Chi with shame: "It's all my fault for causing you trouble."

Xu Qiao: "Auntie, you don't have to be polite to us. How do you feel now?"

Meng Qiu Yan showed a soft smile: "It is very calm now, and it should not mess up again."

She thought she had let it go a long time ago, but she didn't expect that her mental body would always remember it, so she suddenly heard about the beauty of the other party's daughter . And fell back into his memories, experienced the strong happiness, sweetness, sadness, and pain all over again, and then lost control.

Xu Qiao released his spiritual body.

Meng Qiuyan's eyes lit up and she almost couldn't help but touch the beautiful lotus.

Xu Qiao said with a smile: "You can touch it. I want to ask you for help to see which aspect of my spiritual body has a special impact on you."

Meng Qiuyan understood, touched the petals, smelled the fragrance, and her eyes became More and more gentle: "I like its aroma, it smells very comfortable."
