The man turned a deaf ear.
He carried her directly into the bathroom.
It took almost two hours for Pei Xiqing to come out of the bathroom.
She collapsed in the man's arms, and she held him and put him on the bed.
Almost as soon as she touched the pillow, she fell asleep.
The man lifted up the loose hair on her temples.
The hair had already dried, and it felt soft and delicate as it passed through his fingertips, making him unable to let go.
Duan Xiaolin sat beside her who had already fallen asleep for a long time.
I don't know when the sun appeared outside.
Counting it up, since the natural disaster came, such a light full of hope has not appeared in the apocalypse for at least a year.
Warm light shines in and falls on the two of them, bringing with it an indescribable softness and the tranquility of time.
…
Pei Xiqing studied it for a few days but still couldn't figure out how to implement what Qiu Chao said, so he went to find Ma Mengxiang and the others to discuss it.
Everyone was growing vegetables and raising livestock in sheds built at the base. She had come here often some time ago, but recently Brother Duan had to lead a team out for an investigation, so he had to figure out as soon as possible how to use his superpowers so that they would not backfire.
When she came over, Ma Mengxiang was directing a few people to turn the soil. Seeing her, she quickly called out, "Xiqing, why are you here? It's rare for you to have time to come over. We've grown a new variety here. Why don't you ask Brother Duan to come over tonight? I'll make you something to eat."
"He's busy too, busy rebuilding the base. He was too lazy to get involved some time ago, so he just delegated the tasks like he was giving instructions. Now he's trying to make up for it."
Ma Mengxiang couldn't help laughing: "Then there should be time for dinner. Brother Yingzi will be back by then. He said he got a bottle of wine outside. It's so fancy. He wanted to ask you guys to come over."
"I'll ask Brother Duan later, but I have a question now."
"What's the doubt?"
Pei Xiqing asked with a serious expression, "How do I...awaken my own supernatural power?"
At the beginning, before the Qiong snake entered her body, she could still barely feel her own superpowers, but later, perhaps because the Qiong snake was too domineering and powerful, she gradually lost many of her own superpowers under the influence of the Qiong snake.
Apart from the bite she gave Qiu Chaoqi on the battlefield, she had never felt that kind of...power that she felt at the beginning, either before or after.
Ma Mengxiang: "Superpowers? Awakening again?"
As soon as she said this, many villagers gathered around.
"We don't have superpowers, and we haven't had much contact with them, but we've heard that if you feel with your heart, superpowers will appear."
"Pah! What do you mean by feeling with your heart? Come on, if feeling with your heart could give you superpowers, I would have been able to join you on the battlefield long ago!"
"Exactly. If the conditions for awakening superpowers were so simple, then anyone could go to the battlefield and chop zombies. One strike would kill a ton of zombies. Hahahahaha. Then why would we need so many powerful soldiers? We could kill anyone. Do you think awakening superpowers is like eating and drinking water?"
Ma Mengxiang leaned against the wall and thought seriously about Pei Xiqing's question: "Xiqing, are your superpowers gone? Why did you awaken?"
"This...it's a long story..."
She probably explained it to her.
Everyone listened.
They all followed suit and offered suggestions.
But no one quite believed it.
Finally, Ma Mengxiang suddenly suggested, "If the Qiong Snake entered your body and caused you to gradually neglect your previous abilities, then let it sleep for a while, until it is completely unaffected. After that, your previous abilities might gradually return. Then you can use your abilities to quietly merge with the Qiong Snake..."
Pei Xiqing snapped his fingers: "Mengxiang, thank you."
After saying that, she ran away.
Ma Mengxiang was surrounded by several people: "How did you know?"
Ma Mengxiang smiled and said, "I've been reading novels these days, and occasionally I listen to stories with Brother Yingzi. Stories are often like this."
Pei Xiqing did as he was told immediately after returning.
But after searching through all the boxes and cabinets for a long time, he still couldn't find anything that could put the Qiong Snake into a temporary deep sleep.
I accidentally knocked over a medicine bottle at hand and found the note left by Qiu Chao inside.
——If there is no medicine, don't look for it. To put a cursed creature like the Qilin Snake to sleep, you can only use your mind. I have also tried to research many kinds of medicine, but none of them worked, so you have to rely on yourself.
ps: If you see this note, it means that my 980th experiment has also failed. Don’t hold out hope anymore. Use your own method o(╥﹏╥)o
Pei Xiqing couldn't help laughing out loud.
Brother Qiu Chao is really persistent.
With such willpower, I'm afraid that whatever I do in the future will be successful.
She sat back on the sofa.
Close your eyes and start to feel the snake in your body.
Try to find the feeling you had before, feel the real snake and the real power that belongs to it.
She didn't know how long it had been, but she had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, and then the sweat started falling, and she suddenly opened her eyes.
She immediately stood up and called the man.
"Hmm?" It seemed that there was a meeting going on over there, so it was not convenient, but he still answered her call.
"Brother Duan, when will your meeting end?"
"It should be over in three or four minutes. What's going on?"
"Which floor is your office on?"
The man quickly sent her the location.
Pei Xiqing handed Ruirui to the aunt at home, put on his shoes and rushed towards the tall building in front.
She ran and said, "Then wait for me."
"No," he said, "don't worry, I'll wait for you no matter how long it takes."
Pei Xiqing gritted his teeth and ran forward desperately.
She didn't even know why she was running.
I just feel that this way, I can better express my inner excitement.
She knew how to remove the so-called curse on Duan Xiaolin. That curse wasn't really a 'curse', but a side effect she had accidentally brought to him when she used her own abilities before.
If a natural disaster happens, everyone will attribute his situation to the disaster, but that is not the case at all.
Pei Xiqing ran for his life.
It would take her ten minutes to get to her home from the building even by car, and she ran even slower. By the time she was out of breath, a familiar figure had appeared in front of her.
The man's suit pants were straight and slender. He stood in front of her and caught her panting body.
With a half-smile, he said, "I was afraid you couldn't wait, so I came to find you first."
