Bulwark of Light

Chapter 104 I just want to live

The fall of this palm made the hairs all over Gu Shen's body explode.

He subconsciously turned around to fight back.

The silver glow of the ruler of truth has already flickered, but when he turned his head and saw the man's face, all the gestation dissipated and turned into confusion——

A tall, helmeted man with a determined expression shook his head to himself.

Hu Danian?
Gu Shen never thought that... this guy is still alive.

He was very sure that the motorcycle that fell at the gate of Yuandan Street was Hu Danian's vehicle, but after thinking about it carefully... the dry skeleton did not match Hu Danian's tall and strong physical characteristics. The man's skeleton was relatively thin and small. I subconsciously thought that the deceased was Hu Danian himself.

Hu Danian is still alive!

This should be the only good news right now.

"No."

Hu Danian conveyed this will with his eyes.

So the two backed away slowly until they exited the factory area and came to a broken and collapsed stone wall not far away.

Hu Danian squatted in the mist, lowered his voice, "Are you crazy? Why did you come here?"

"..."

Gu Shen felt that he had been robbed of his lines again.

Seeing Gu Shen's helpless eyes, Hu Danian immediately understood something, he frowned and said, "Shi Li is related to this sealed item case?"

"Yes...more precisely, it is the Long-term Foundation."

Gu Shen said meaningfully: "All of this is the long-term foundation's plan... Although I don't know what they are going to do. But if this fog is cast elsewhere, the lethality will not be so simple."

It sounds crazy, but the truth may be... the current fog on Yuandan Street is just an experiment of these lunatics.

The thick fog that spreads over a whole block can be submerged for enough time to kill even superhumans!
"Who is that mummy?" Gu Shen asked with a frown.

"A...a person whose name I don't know. When I saw him, he was on the verge of death, and he fell at the entrance of Yuandan Street." Hu Danian's eyes were gloomy, and his expression was a little complicated, "This thick fog has filled Yuandan Street , and some nearby areas, a small number of smokers, the symptoms are still mild, but they are contaminated with the spiritual brand of the sealed item, and they can return to normal after interpreting the dream... That poor man should have strayed into the core block where the fog is located, I lost my way and couldn't find the exit, so I was forced to be exhausted by the thick fog, and my flesh and blood were squeezed dry."

Gu Shen lowered his head slowly after listening.

When I finally found the exit of Yuandan Street, it was already irreparable... What a desperate thing.

"Just now, why didn't you let me in?"

Gu Shen said again: "I've confirmed the existence of the sealed item...it's in those abandoned factories."

Hu Danian looked at Gu Shen with complicated eyes.

If I remember correctly, Gu Shen's task is to track down Shi Li, so he should have entered this block just now, and found the factory in no more than 10 minutes?

This is indeed a genius.

He sighed softly, and stretched out his hand, "I also confirmed the location of the sealed item, down to the specific factory building... The price I paid was an afternoon, and this."

Hu Danian took off the glove on his left hand. It can be seen with the naked eye that age spots and layers of wrinkles appeared on the skin texture of the palm, as if he had aged for 20 years.

"This……?"

Gu Shen's pupils contracted, in disbelief.

"The thick fog spreading across Yuandan Street can completely disorient those who are in it, even the extraordinary ones are no exception. If you want to get out of the fog, you can only rely on luck."

"According to my inference, if all the fog is released, it should be able to fill half of the old city... I don't know why, most of the fog is suppressed in that factory building, that is to say, the place where the sealed item is located. , is the most dangerous place." Hu Danian lowered his eyes and smiled mockingly: "My original thought was the same as yours, since I can't leave Yuandan Street, I should destroy the sealed artifacts and stop this pollution...but it's just When I touched the inner wall of that factory building, my hand became like this."

Skin aging.

Flesh withered.

These injuries are not incurable... But what is certain is that even with the best means of treatment, Hu Danian's left hand has aged for at least "20 years".

"I have confirmed that there is no one else in this block. Although the lunatics of the Changjiu Foundation are desperate, they will not stay here to be consumed by the fog. The factory building where the sealed items are placed does not need to be guarded at all... because No one can enter it at all." Hu Danian covered his lips, suppressed his own coughing voice, and gasped, "This is by no means a so-called C-level sealed item... The extraordinary anomalies in the factory are at least A-level, the two of us can't handle it."

Gu Shen was silent for a moment, and said: "But Shi Li entered the factory... It shows that the Changjiu Foundation has a unique method."

"You...don't want to be a savior, a great hero, do you?" Helplessness appeared on Hu Danian's face, he smiled silently, stretched out his left hand, and said, "The Changjiu Foundation can enter, can you enter? See My hand... This is the fate of mistakenly thinking that I am the protagonist of the novel."

"If I had observed more carefully, I would not have made such a mistake."

The hand that Hu Danian raised was trembling constantly, but his voice was unusually stable.

"The best way now is to wait a little longer, and when Shi Li appears from the factory building, we just need to follow him, and then we can leave 'Yuan Dan Street'... As for this bullshit fog, let the ruling decide Let the adjudicators settle it."

Hu Danian grinned, and bared his voice: "Little brother, listen to my advice, don't take this muddy water if you don't have the strength of the ninth layer of the deep sea."

Yes.

Hu Danian is right.

This is indeed the best way... If all this really goes as smoothly as planned, then Gu Shen doesn't mind acting like this.

He squatted quietly behind the stone wall, and suddenly asked such a question.

"What if Shi Li walks out of the factory and we lose it?"

Hu Danian was startled.

"Then... grind it little by little." He said in a deep voice, "Our mental strength is much stronger than normal people, and we can last longer in this fog."

"You wandered around Yuandan Street all afternoon in the fog. This block is not big, but you still haven't found your way... Logically speaking, even if you are touching a stone wall, try it bit by bit, and move step by step. , should also find the exit."

Gu Shen laughed softly, and he said slowly: "Why did that poor man in the old town find the exit only when he finally died... Do you think this could be a coincidence? Can you go out, or...only the dead can leave?"

Hearing this, Hu Danian felt creepy.

"Since you have been looking for an exit on Yuandan Street all afternoon, did you see Shi Li's figure just now?" Gu Shen lowered his eyes and asked again: "In this thick fog, no matter what Whether it's superhuman ability or naked eyesight, it's suppressed below five meters. We can't see Shili at all, let alone follow... No matter how ugly it sounds, be pessimistic, you can be sure that Shili is still in that factory building now Is it?"

"what do you mean……"

Hu Danian's voice trembled a little.

"This thick fog has a special barrier that isolates people from certain landscapes in front of them... It's similar to a blindfold. So we're going around here, because we, like the skeleton, haven't mastered the trick People, on this Yuandan Street... are the so-called dying people."

Gu Shen said calmly: "But the time is different. I guess that the Changjiu Foundation probably has a special breathing method to deal with the fog, so that people can come and go freely without being disturbed by the fog."

Hu Danian sat on the ground, a little desperate.

Only then did he realize...how difficult it is to follow Shi Li.

It is very possible that the other party has already left.

I'm still here waiting.

"so what should I do now?"

Now, he can't think of a better way. For some reason, Hu Danian turned his attention to Gu Shen... I remember when we first met in the bar, this immature boy didn't even know the impact of the basic ability of profiling. .

Obviously a young child who has just entered the extraordinary world.

Now, how long has it been?

In the fog on Yuandan Street... His analysis was calmer and more objective than his own.

Perhaps, Gu Shen will have a solution?

As an old oily man who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, Hu Danian believes in the creed that at a critical moment, one should always rely on one's own hands, and don't expect others to bring luck to oneself...

He felt ashamed that he just subconsciously spoke up.

"I have a way."

Gu Shen lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, and said word by word: "Actually, the method is very simple, but there is only one chance... and you must cooperate with all your strength."

"……Say."

Hu Danian pulled himself together and sat up quickly.

"The premise of all this is that Shi Li has not left Yuandan Street and is located in the sealed object factory building..." Gu Shen said slowly: "The information that can be confirmed at present is that Shi Li does not know that there is still a seal on Yuandan Street. Other stoppers. So, he knows neither your existence nor mine."

"Of course, we don't know what he is going to do when he comes to Yuandan Street."

"If you let him complete the task smoothly, just leave like this... Then when he comes back next time, he will have to wait at least one day later."

Speaking of this, Hu Danian was a little stunned, he probably understood what Gu Shen meant.

"You want to... take the initiative to expose?"

"That's right." Gu Shen nodded calmly, and said, "But... only one of you and I was exposed. The other one launched a surprise attack."

"Raid?"

Hu Danian was dumbfounded, this method is indeed simple...but the risk is too great.

"The gang of lunatics from the Changjiu Foundation are desperate!"

"In the records of Shi Li in the Sincere Society, it is the fourth floor of the deep sea, but there is a high probability that it is a lie. The real strength may be on the fifth to sixth floor... In a head-to-head confrontation, I am definitely not his opponent. Even if I launch a surprise attack, there is no chance of winning." Hu Danian gritted his teeth and said: "...This method is too reckless. Maybe wait a little longer, the higher-ups will arrange a high-level extraordinary person to break the situation, and we will be saved successfully."

"What if... the fog in the factory building spread before the people came? You also know that the Changjiu Foundation is crazy. If they dare to put sealed items in the old city, they must be ready to die." Gu Shen said indifferently. Said: "Do you want to stay here and wait for the rescue from above? I also want to be rescued... But I don't want to be that corpse on the street, and I don't want to hand over my fate to other people."

Hu Danian stared blankly at the boy.

He was completely silent.

"If you want to live and believe in me, let me launch the final surprise attack. I am sure to end all of this." Gu Shen said softly, "I don't want to be a savior, and I don't want to be a hero...I just want to, live."
