Ghost Animal Maker of the End Times

The bright sun at noon made it difficult for Li Li to open his eyes. His hands were tied to a horizontal wooden pole, his legs were bound together, and even his head was fixed to the log by a cloth belt tied across his forehead. His whole body moved. Nothing.

The temperature of the sun is not high, but it makes people feel a sharp pain on the skin.Li Li's pale complexion had been scorched to reddish by the sun, sickly red like a high fever, and looked extremely frightening.

He had been tied up here for two hours, and except for a few people guarding him, the rest of the people who were active in the settlement turned a blind eye to him, coming and going in a hurry, as if they were used to this kind of situation.

His voice was hoarse, and his tears could no longer flow.He was always hungry and thirsty, and just now he was able to struggle a few times relying on fear, but after a long time, the breath dissipated, and the whole person sank again, closing his eyes, as if he had fallen into a coma.

However, he was indeed not far from coma, his mind was in chaos, and only one question fluctuated up and down in the stagnant thinking world... What happened?Why is this so?

Back to this morning.

When Xia Fei and the others were still on the road hunting zombies to pick up crystal nuclei and leaving the settlement, Li Li and the others happened to wake up from a dream.

After the apocalypse, this night was considered the best sleep they had, because they were in a settlement, surrounded by their own kind, thinking of this, they couldn't help but feel at ease.

The four of them slept in the same tent. In the morning, Zhang Heshan and Xu Yi woke up first, and woke up Nan Xue and Li Li at the same time.

After waking up, my mouth was dry and my stomach was hungry, and both of them were uncomfortable with their shriveled stomachs.

At this time Yan Tie came over.

"Let's go and have breakfast." Yan Tie's first words were this, which lifted the spirits of the four who were starving, and looked at Yan Tie with gratitude.

"By the way, the results of the ability test for the two of you yesterday came out." Yan Tie led the four of them out leisurely, and casually said, "Brother Heshan's attribute is soil, and little brother Li Li Its attribute is water, so I don’t know what kind of ability it is?”

Zhang Heshan was a little confused: "Specifically?"

Yan Tie smiled and said: "For example, in terms of earth attribute abilities, some people can harden the skin of the whole body, just like swords and swords in martial arts novels. And some people can extract metal elements from the earth , manipulating metal, I am this type of earth-type superhuman. Of course, there are many other types. The old lunatic said that a superhuman who can escape into the earth like Tu Xingsun and travel freely in the land is also an earth-type superhuman. A person with supernatural powers."

"Like Tu Xingsun?" Zhang Heshan was stunned. Even though he already knew the supernatural power, he still found it unbelievable to imagine the scene of a living person escaping into the ground. powerful.

"So I don't know what your ability is, Heshan?"

"My ability is..." Zhang Heshan was stupid, and he simply gave a demonstration to Yan Tie. He stopped, stopped Yan Tieli and the others, stared straight ahead at a small open space, and stretched out a hand , "Probably manipulating dirt and rocks or something like that."

Under the watchful eyes of several people, an earthen wall slowly rose up on the open space, reaching a height of about one meter before gradually getting lower.But when it was about [-] centimeters high, Zhang Heshan withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and said embarrassingly, "I'm so hungry that I can't do anything, that's all I can do."

"It's okay." Yan Tiexi smiled, and patted Zhang Heshan on the shoulder vigorously, "Brother Heshan and I have many similarities in abilities. We need to communicate more about manipulating abilities to kill zombies!"

"Yeah." Zhang Heshan complied honestly, feeling somewhat joyful in his heart that he had been recognized.

"Then what about Brother Li Li?" Yan Tie looked at Li Li expectantly, "Speaking of which, there is a shortage of water attribute powers in settlements. There are more than ten people with other abilities at least, but the water attribute is currently only Alone." He frowned, as if he didn't like the person he was talking about.

So, water attribute abilities are scarce?Li Li was a little excited but also a little nervous. Unlike Zhang Heshan, he could control his abilities independently. In other words, he hadn't tried to actively control his abilities, so he didn't know how to show them to Yan Tie. look.But fearing that the other party would take him for a liar, he gritted his teeth, stretched out his arm, closed his eyes and stroked his forearm with his long nails——

"Hiss—" He took a deep breath in pain, and then opened his eyes. There was a long and thin cut on his little arm, and after a while, a few drops of blood oozed out.

"What are you doing?!" Yan Tie was taken aback. In today's era of zombies, everyone is careful not to get hurt.The more holes you make, the more chances of being infected—is this man in front of you not afraid of death?

"Look at it." Li Li anxiously looked at his arm, wondering if it would be useful.

The suspicious people all looked at his arm, and then gradually widened their eyes in surprise——Li Li's arm was gradually becoming transparent, but it was not completely transparent as Xia Fei saw before, but the area around the wound became more transparent. Moisturized like jelly, through the translucent epidermis, bright red muscles and flowing blood can be seen.

Slowly, the translucent skin returned to its original shape, and the previous scratch disappeared without a trace, and even the scars could not be found, and the skin was as smooth as new.

"My ability is probably like this." Li Li heaved a sigh of relief seeing that the ability had worked, but a certain part of his body became transparent, and seeing his own flesh and blood with his own eyes still made him unbearable, and his expression changed. Not very nice.

"Just now..." Zhang Heshan sighed, "That blue light..." He couldn't express clearly, he just felt that the blue light attached to Li Li's arm just now looked like he wanted to eat it - but how should the light be eaten? ?He scratched his hair in confusion, unable to finish his sentence.

A hint of greed flashed imperceptibly in Yan Tie's eyes, he swallowed, but still smiled brightly: "So, is it the ability of self-healing?"

"Probably, probably..." Li Li replied uncertainly, after all, he had never actively explored the potential and effect of his abilities.

"It's really a good ability." Yan Tie also patted Li Li on the shoulder, but his eyes were indifferent and mocking--incomparably selfish ability, besides being good for himself, what contribution can it make to his companions?

"However, in this way, Brother Heshan, how about joining the patrol team with me in the future work?" Yan Tie said, "Patroll nearby, kill the zombies wandering here, and take the people who escaped nearby here."

Zhang Heshan nodded without objection: "Well, good."

"Brother Li Li, let's join the logistics." Yan Tie looked around, and beckoned to Dong Chun'er who was nearby, "Chun'er, come here!"

Dong Chun'er was a young man with a bit of a fierce look, his hair was upturned, and he looked like a steel wire.But when he ran over and saw Li Li and Zhang Heshan, he forced a kind smile on his face, looking extremely awkward.

"Take Li Li to the logistics team for dinner." Yan Tie blinked at Li Li, "Babies with water attributes will naturally be treated better."

"Thank you, thank you." Having received unexpected attention, Li Li pursed his lips and smiled happily, "I will do my best!"

"Lord Li Li, come with me." Dong Chun'er, with a fierce face, respectfully respected the slender Li Li, in the eyes of Xu Yi and Nan Xue, no matter how you look at it, there is a sense of disobedience.

Li Li followed Dong Chun'er, but Nan Xue wanted to call out to him, but she opened her mouth and closed it again.She couldn't stop thinking, Li Li's family has supernatural powers, so it is inevitable that they will receive preferential treatment. What position does she have for Li Li to follow them and receive normal treatment?But people like Li Li can have supernatural powers, why can't she?She is much better than Li Li, isn't she!

God is so unfair.

Nan Xue gritted her teeth, watching Yan Tie called another young woman: "Lan Peipei, come and take the two of them to dinner." He was referring to Xu Yi and Nan Xue.

"Xu Yi wants to separate from me?" Zhang Heshan grabbed Xu Yi's arm. In the past few days, he has been used to Xu Yi's company and reminder at any time. He looked at Yan Tie eagerly, "Can we be together?"

"The patrol team has to fight zombies, so they eat differently from ordinary people." Yan Tie said seriously, "Resources are limited, we can't allow ordinary people to enjoy the treatment of supernatural beings, this is the rule!"

Seeing that Zhang Heshan was a little upset, Yan Tie pulled him aside and lowered his voice: "And you go out on patrol, can Xu Yi stay by your side? Say something together, you want to kill him?"

Zhang Heshan's eyes widened, and he said in a panic, "No, I don't want to..."

"You have different abilities now, so naturally what you have to do is also different. If you insist on taking him with you, he will only be your burden." Yan Tieyu said earnestly, "Don't mention this in front of Xu Yi, it will hurt you." It hurt his self-esteem."

Zhang Heshan nodded honestly.

Xu Yi watched Yan Tie pull Zhang Heshan aside and said a few words, Zhang Heshan behaved honestly, and couldn't help shaking his head, Heshan's soft ears, when will he be able to correct it?

When Yan Tie came again, he immediately made a decision: "Lan Peipei, take them with you."

"Can I have a few words with He Shan?" Xu Yi said, "If you don't tell me a few words, don't worry."

Yan Tie nodded, and let them do whatever they wanted.

Xu Yi pulled Zhang Heshan aside again: "What's your plan for a while?"

"After dinner, I went out to patrol with Brother Yan, and came back at night." Zhang Heshan explained honestly.

"Patrol..." Xu Yi pondered for a moment before opening his mouth and said, "Speak less, do less, don't be stupid and do what others tell you to do, don't kill good people—forget it, you won't change even if I tell you, Just remember to talk less and do less.” He was a little helpless, if he didn’t change his bad temper, he might go out on patrol one day and never come back.

"En." Zhang Heshan nodded incomprehensibly, but still took note of Xu Yi's words very carefully.

So the four parted ways for the time being.

Zhang Heshan left with Yan Tie, Li Li was taken to the logistics department by Dong Chun'er, while Xu Yi and Nan Xue followed Lan Peipei into a small tent with air leakage on all sides.

"This is where I live." Lan Peipei didn't seem to say much, and pointed to the stone in the corner of the tent, "Eat."

Xu Yi looked in that direction, and saw the green plant stems and leaves placed on the rocks, still stained with a little soil, it seemed that they hadn't been washed.

"You can eat it with confidence. The old lunatic has tested it, and it is not contaminated." Lan Peipei walked over, twisted a leaf, stuffed it into the mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it, but looked back at Nanxue and Xu Yi with a cold expression , "Don't be disgusted, and you're not a supernatural being, so don't expect too much, some food is good."

"At noon, you can have hot food." Lan Peipei said lightly, "I will order it in the morning."

She is fair and beautiful, with short hair, giving people a sense of elegance and dignity. Before the end of the world, she looks like an independent and self-reliant career woman.But the look in her eyes was numb, as if she didn't care about anything and had an attitude that everything was fine.

Such a person will make people feel quite alienated and indifferent, and it is extremely difficult to get close to, so Nan Xue, who wanted to strike up a conversation and pretend to be familiar, gave up her previous plan, walked over with Xu Yi, scooped up grass leaves and stuffed them into her mouth. A bitter taste filled the tongue.

……

Yes, there is nothing wrong with eating something.They were so hungry that they didn't dare to eat the grass and leaves all over the mountains and plains, because they were afraid of being infected or eating poisonous plants, but when they saw Lan Peipei eating it directly, they couldn't bear the hunger anymore and swallowed it. blades of grass.

However, after a few breaths, both Xu Yi and Nan Xue's movements became stiff—they turned their heads to look at the expressionless Lan Peipei in shock, but their paralyzed and swollen tongues couldn't speak a complete sentence, and their legs went limp and fell down on the ground.

His whole body seemed to be drugged with anesthesia, his consciousness gradually drifted away, and the figure of Lan Peipei approaching step by step in his vision became more and more blurred.There is only one word in my mind - it's over!

After they regained their consciousness, they were already tied up in the tent.

Lan Peipei sat next to them, and when they woke up, she said coldly: "Plants are edible, but they will paralyze people's nerves. But if you take in a small amount, it will not endanger your life. Be honest, the heat at noon You still have a share of Teng Teng's food."

She seemed to have deliberately waited for them to wake up to explain these few words, because after she finished speaking, she left without giving Xu Yinanxue any time to ask questions.

After a moment of silence, Xu Yi said slowly: "From her tone, we are safe for the time being."

Nan Xue suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and gave a soft "hmm"... But, why did these people tie them up?

After a while, Xu Yi and Nan Xue got the answer.

They heard Li Li's frightened cry for help.

what happened?Xu Yi and Nan Xue couldn't guess.Isn't Li Li a supernatural being?What had the people in the colony done to him?

But because they were restrained, the two could only listen, speculate, and worry about what they were worried about, but they couldn't find out, let alone respond to Li Li's call for help.

They are trapped here because they don't want them to interfere with what the people in the settlement do to Li Li, right?Xu Yi and Nan Xue speculated like this, and I have to say that although it is not kind to think so, they are indeed relieved.After all, this behavior in the settlement was aimed at Li Li, not the two of them.

As for Li Li, after Dong Chuner took them out of sight, Dong Chuner knocked him unconscious on the ground.When he woke up again, he was already tied to the cross until now.

Fear, hunger and thirst, and the scorching of the sun made him dying.

But at this moment, a cold hand twisted his chin, and the voice was arrogant: "This is the man? That useless useless supernatural power?"

He raised his eyelids unconsciously, and his chapped lips opened and closed silently: "Please...help...I..."

That hand shook his chin, and the haughty voice ordered decisively: "It's time to start, I've prepared everything for you, and you have to absorb it completely! If even a little bit of energy is allowed to dissipate in vain, next time this Good things will not be yours!"
