Ji Zhan's body was getting colder and colder. As the sky turned dark again, Jing Sa didn't know for a moment how many days he had been walking in this desolate snowy field with Ji Zhan on his back.
As soon as he woke up from his deep sleep, Jing Sa threw away his terminal, completely cutting off the possibility of contact with the base.
There were monsters on the road constantly approaching Ji Zhan because they smelled the breath of the evolver, but they were all afraid of Jing Sa, and if they approached a little bolder, their consequences would be extremely tragic.
Although Ji Zhan's face was expressionless, his whole body exuded an extremely dangerous aura, and his golden eyes were something that was not of this world at all.
Jing Sa glanced at the monsters that were about to move in the dark, and his eyes darkened slightly, "Do you really want her that much?"
The monster with a ferocious face regards the evolver as its own delicacy, and especially covets the evolver's corpse. If it had not sensed Jing Sa's unusual aura, it would have pounced on Ji Zhan and eaten it.
"Go away."
Jing Sa walked to an abandoned house, saw the monster clinging to it, and shouted.
The monster fled like flying.
Jing Sa carried Ji Zhan into the house. The house was in dilapidated condition, but it could barely cover the wind and snow.
Jing Sa carefully put Ji Zhan down, and the pale-faced Ji Zhan was wrapped in Jing Sa's coat without any sound, and the color of the tear mole under the corner of his eye seemed to dim.
Jing Sa lowered her eyelashes and leaned down to rest her head against Ji Zhan's neck.
Ji Zhan's skin has also lost its temperature. He can't feel the blood flowing under his skin. Everything is telling him that Ji Zhan is dead.
Jing Sa stayed on Ji Zhan's body like this for five minutes, wanting to sleep with Ji Zhan just like that.
But in the end he decided to give it a try.
Jing Sa straightened up and took out two monster crystal cores from his pocket.
They have seen what happens to humans when they swallow monster crystal nuclei, and they have all seen it in Tuwulu and his daughter.
The crystal core has a certain probability of turning ordinary people into evolvers, but it may also turn people into host bodies for monsters...
Jing Sa held a turbid crystal in his hand. Under the light coming from the window, the mixed colors seemed to be imprinted in his golden pupils, as if they had gathered into a crystal full of life in Jing Sa's eyes.
source.
Jing Sa opened his mouth, took the two crystal cores in his mouth, then leaned down again, held Ji Zhan's face with both hands, and kissed her lips.
The tip of the tongue opened the tightly closed lip gap, pushing the crystal core into Ji Zhan's mouth, pushing it deeper.
This was supposed to be a passionate and romantic kiss, but when one party lost their vitality, this kiss became a cruel and decisive parting of life and death.
Jing Sa caressed Ji Zhan's throat, allowing Ji Zhan to cooperate in swallowing. Only when the two crystal nuclei were firmly rooted in Ji Zhan's body did Jing Sa's lips move away a little.
Jing Sa stood up and half-hugged Ji Zhan. Despite the howling wind and snow outside, he just lowered his head and buried it in the crook of Ji Zhan's neck, as if falling asleep again.
"Ji Zhan..." The last soft call before falling asleep was like an ambiguous murmur, and the gold in his eyes sank like the setting sun.
I don't know how long it took, but after hearing the sound of something sprouting in Ji Zhan's body, Jing Sa picked up Ji Zhan on his back again, stepped into the white snowfield again, and headed towards the fifth safety base.
…
When we returned to the fifth security base again, it was the twelfth day since we left the snow-capped mountains.
There was a scattered team of dozens of people queuing at the entrance of the security base. Some were returning from missions, and some were defecting from humans who could no longer survive alone in the wild, but everyone's expression was the same.
The despair, gloom and sadness after being wasted.
Except for the man at the end of the queue at the moment.
The man was wearing thin clothes, and the upper half of his face was covered with bandages. The blood-stained bandages were loose and loose, making it easy for people to peek into the bloody wounds on his face.
The person in front secretly glanced at the tall, full-blooded man behind him with his peripheral vision. This man was carrying someone on his back, but the person on his back was covered tightly by a coat.
All you can see is one arm hanging down.
Judging from this arm alone, it belongs to a woman.
The person in front shook his head regretfully, thinking that they were a pair of lovers who had been separated from each other. He advised: "Brother, the base only allows the recovery of the bodies of evolved people. The one on your back..."
"She's still alive."
Jing Sa looked at the person in front of him, his eyes dark and gloomy. Coupled with the bandage wrapped around his face, he looked even more gloomy and depressed.
Jing Sa seemed to see the fear in the man's stunned eyes. Now that he was approaching the checkpoint, Jing Sa didn't want to cause trouble, so he slowed down his tone and pretended to be gentle in his eyes, "Although I encountered something very dangerous, my
My lover is still alive."
The man shivered inexplicably and turned around, not daring to look back.
Soon, it was Jing Sa's turn to check at the base entrance.
Jing Sa handed the inspectors two identity cards that he had prepared before the mining mission. These were things he had obtained before he was suspended from the inner base. With the rank of major, he had to purchase two identity cards for the outer base and
It's not a difficult thing.
Jing Sa and Ji Zhan are now ordinary people performing field missions in the outer base. The casualty rate for ordinary people during field missions is as high as 70%. Especially after the emergence of the mother monster, the casualties have become more serious.
That's why Jing Sa and Ji Zhan look so scarred and so normal.
The identity checks at the outer levels are not very strict. After all, there are no monsters among humans. They mainly check whether people who have returned from the wild have wounds bitten by infected monsters.
No abnormalities were found on Jing Sa and Ji Zhan's ID cards, and then there was a physical examination.
However, the inspector mistakenly thought that Ji Zhan, who was carrying Jing Sa on his back, was dead, so he stopped him and said, "The bodies of ordinary people are not allowed to be brought back to the base. Please don't add burden to the base."
Jing Sa said: "She just fell from a height, she is not dead yet."
Jing Sa had to put Ji Zhan down. Two-thirds of Ji Zhan's face was also wrapped in bandages, making it almost impossible to see his original appearance.
The prosecutors used instruments to examine Ji Zhan and confirmed Ji Zhan's signs of life before asking Jing Sa to throw her out of the base.
After that comes the examination of infected wounds. Now there are reagents that can detect infected wounds. All you need to do is collect a little blood test from Jing Sa and Ji Zhan.
Compared with the examination to confirm Ji Zhan's vital signs, Jing Sa was actually more afraid of collecting blood samples.
Collecting samples is equivalent to leaving evidence. If someone in the inner base deliberately wanted to investigate, they would be able to find out that he and Ji Zhan appeared at the checkpoint on this day.
