The voice coming from outside was not really pleasant, but after listening to it, Tao Ju reflexively breathed a sigh of relief. It was Pawa, a Pawa who had not contacted him during the day. The little devil in Tang Li's mouth could theoretically bring him down at any time.
The high-threat characters he killed.
However, compared to the armed helicopters hovering in the sky before, this one looks so cute.
Tao Ju hurriedly stood up from the ground. At this time, something seemed to roll down on his body, maybe it was a clod of soil?
At this time, Pava reminded him: "Take it easy, I'm not sure how many bullets you were hit before."
"ah?"
Tao Ju didn't understand for a moment. At this time, he had already half stood up, and then he realized that there were pains in many places on his body, but it was not obvious. He subconsciously reached out to touch, and under the damp, wrinkled, and shapeless shirt,
There was indeed a wound at the corresponding point, which penetrated the clothes, and was a little sticky, as if it was bleeding. It was just confused with the influence of the moist environment, and it was hard to tell for a while.
After all, the pain was still too mild.
Well, not only on the body, but also on the face.
The skin and muscles here are thinner and more sensitive, but when Tao Ju reached out and touched it, it seemed like there were only a few scratches. Moreover, his whole body was in excellent condition. The previous stiffness or softness was no longer there, and he felt quite refreshed.
It means enough.
Tao Ju was confused for a moment and did not dare to move. He could only ask in a low voice:
"what on earth is it?"
"You ask me, and I also want to ask you, how could you escape the previous rounds of searches?"
"Well……"
"It's not like they didn't notice the hole in the tree where you were hiding. They at least took a few shots inside and even opened it to take a look."
While talking, Pava must have reached out and patted the cluster of aerial roots outside a few times. Immediately, fractures appeared in the middle, some were relatively smooth, and some were extremely irregular. As Pava said, part of it was cut with a knife.
, some were simply interrupted by large-caliber bullets.
Tao Ju stared blankly at these stubble cracks, then lowered his head to look. In the dark tree hole, with his eyesight, he could barely distinguish some irregular small block objects. He reached out and fumbled, and found that they were indeed twisted metal warheads.
The chill in my heart couldn't help but burst out.
At this time, Pava also pushed away the scattered and broken aerial roots. The dim light from the outside world cut out the outline of his thin face, which appeared at the edge of the tree hole: "I don't know how they positioned themselves, they didn't let go here.
, but you escaped again, at least you didn't die under that round of shooting, which is very interesting. I thought I was going to collect your body, take a closer look..."
Pava suddenly stretched out his hand, as if to touch Tao Ju's face for confirmation.
Tao Ju subconsciously leaned back. As a result, his current posture was already half-protruding, which was not stable enough. He lost his balance and sat back.
Pava smiled and took back his hand, and continued: "It seems that it was buffered through something, and the fatal injury turned into a flesh wound. It's very strange. Do you want to explain it?
Tao Ju listened in a daze, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered something: "Is my coat... outside?"
"No." Pava responded matter-of-factly, "If you did throw some clothes away and aroused their suspicion, you should have taken them away when you evacuated. It's a simple reasoning, right?"
Tao Ju responded vaguely, feeling even more confused, but at this time he could no longer stay in the tree hole. So he reluctantly raised his waist, hunched over and pushed open the broken aerial root "fence" in the middle, and came to
Outside the tree hole.
As his body moved, the wounds on his body that were suspected of being hit by bullets ached faintly, but they were the result of his special attention. In fact, they could be completely ignored. At most, they felt like being bitten by poisonous mosquitoes.
The sky is fine tonight. The crescent moon is like a bow. It has just climbed above the top of the mountain. It is shining with light from its flanks. The shadows of the trees can be seen swaying on the ground, like smoke and souls.
There seems to be some smell of blood mixed in with it.
Tao Ju walked out from the dark tree hole. He was still in a daze and almost tripped over because of the shadow of the tree.
It was Pava who blew a loud whistle and woke him up.
"Were you buried alive before? It feels like you just struggled out of the ground."
"No, not... right."
Tao Ju felt a little guilty as he spoke, and he couldn't figure out his previous state. When Pava mentioned it, he did smell the earthy smell on his body, but when he scratched his hair and dug his ears, there didn't seem to be much earth left.
"It feels like I am relying on the obstacles of the soil and tree roots. The smell on my body is very strong, but it doesn't seem like I am hiding. The roots of the banyan tree are not easy to dig." After saying that, Pava stepped in personally and pulled a few times.
He came out again, "The root system and the ground are relatively intact. They are not hidden underneath, but it seems like... you have become them."
"ah?"
"It's just a guess. This is a very wonderful and practical ability. I have only heard of it before. I didn't know that you were actually an enhancer. Now your special ability has been awakened, right?"
"Uh, I'm not, I shouldn't..."
Tao Ju's speech was incoherent.
Under the influence of Pava, Tao Ju also wondered for a second: Am I really a hidden genius who has been strengthened by the "high-energy tide" without knowing it?
But soon, his rational brain came into play: although before the last round of high-energy tides, he had undergone in-depth transformation, including a "highly sensitive awareness" of high-energy tides, hoping to achieve the improvement of personal strength through high-energy tides.
Breakthrough. But he was unlucky. Although there was a little stimulation, it failed to reach the level of strengthening.
Tao Ju always suspected that someone else's will was involved.
There is no way, the East 824th District has always been highly sensitive to the "intensified flow", because they may escape from the "authority control" at any time, causing some kind of "imbalance". But at the same time, there will always be people around Governor Wu.
There are several "enhancer" bodyguards. It is said that he has also been funding research in related fields. Song Peng, who is next to Wu Sigong, is also an extension of this trend.
To put it bluntly, it was still the influence of the subtle relationship between Wu Zhengyi and Mrs. Zuo.
This shattered him and left many people with a path forward in the field of "enhanced flow".
Since this is the case, there is only one answer that Tao Ju can think of at the moment.
So he raised his arm and looked at his left hand that had crushed the bark of the tree. He saw that it had dried up, but there was still a little bit of dark green sap remaining and tiny gray-white fragments stuck to it.
"Maybe... it's sincerity that leads to spiritual success?"
"What the hell?"
Pava looked very confused.
Tao Ju looked at Pava. He was not sure whether to tell his "partner" what happened during the day.
Especially the absurd events related to Tang Li.
He shouldn't have said it, because Tang Li, whom he took the initiative to meet, was the "big enemy" in front of him, at least in theory.
However, in this night where the moonlight and the shadows of the trees intertwined, Pava's thin and cold face did not say anything, but always stared at his pupils, as if a flickering fire was burning all the time. There was curiosity in it, but more importantly, there was a need for "honesty" and "candor".
The strict requirement of "obedience".
Tao Ju really had no way to withstand such pressure, and since he had taken the initiative to do this, he had already thought of taking a big gamble. So he took a few seconds to adjust his breathing and expressed it in the most honest way:
"I met with Tang Li today..."
"Ha!" Pava suddenly laughed out loud, "Sure enough, you went to find him! Then talk about the cause and effect, especially what he said, don't miss it. I want to listen carefully and help you.
Analyze it...what expression?"
"I, I thought you would be angry."
"Lying, isn't it the joy of winning a bet?" Pava's glowing pupils clearly penetrated Tao Ju's body and pointed directly at the subtlest emotional ups and downs deep in his heart, "I mentioned Tang Li last night.
There's something wrong with your expression. You're a little pug being disciplined. If you roll your eyes, I'll know where to stick your butt."
"Uh, actually..."
Before Tao Ju finished speaking, Pava put his arm on his shoulders.
This feeling is a bit familiar. Shang Pawa did this last night, and Tang Li also did this during the day.
And neither of them gave him any room to defend or question.
Pava came closer and said to him: "Baby, you are still too young, you might be sold by him... Remember, we are 'partners'!"
This guy is also "disciplining" me!
Tao Ju was not a fool. Of course he could guess Pava's true attitude towards him, which was even worse than this.
He also became more and more confused about the relationship between Pava and Tang Li. At this time, he couldn't help but think deeply. He could only smile reluctantly: "The main reason is that I couldn't find you after the last contact; Mrs. Zuo didn't meet with me either.
Let me go to work, so I don’t have a chance to make your requests..."
Damn, what am I talking about?
Tao Ju never thought that one day he would be stupid and speak the truth.
But at this time, it was impossible to swallow the words back. Fortunately, Pava did not blame him immediately, and he could only forcefully change: "I just want to know more about the 'Gangyu' incident at the High Energy Center
The development there, um, it was a coincidence, um, that's how I met Tang Li, invited him to have a meal and chat. Then, he understood my difficulties and gave me some advice, which is 'sincerity leads to success'...
…”
By the time he got here, Tao Ju's logic had been messed up. Under Pava's gaze, he could only tell Pava what Tang Li had said in the teahouse that morning - not many sentences in total.
listen.
That was an extremely ridiculous countermeasure. Even if he told the truth, he still had to worry about Pava not believing it!
Pava didn't question him anymore and listened patiently. Then he started directly and grabbed Tao Ju's left wrist. Looking at the traces left on his palm, he said after a moment: "A piece of bark that fell naturally? You
Are you sure Tang Li was not on top of your head at that time?"
I think so too,
Tao Ju originally wanted to respond like this, but in the end he ended up with a wry smile.
The bitterness is real, and so is the laughter - maybe the origin of this power is too strange, not the right way, or it may have endless consequences, but when his life is in danger, nothing can compare to having an extra life-saving trump card.
Even more fortunate.
What amazes him most now is that Tang Li can actually achieve what he said.
Why exactly?
And why?
Tao Ju was silent, and Pava didn't expect his answer. He suddenly grinned, revealing his jagged and white teeth:
