After the fog, I became a birdman

As soon as Qi Jiang went out, he was choked by the stale air outside, and couldn't help coughing a few times, but the more he coughed, the more uncomfortable he became.

Mutants are more sensitive than ordinary people. Every time he takes a breath, he feels that what he breathes is not air but sand. He can even see some granular dust falling down under the light of the fluorescent stick.

These are volcanic ash, particulate matter, completely insoluble in water.

Su Qing coughed worse than Qi Jiang, and his body was shaking. Qi Jiang tore off the corner of his clothes, and covered Su Qing's mouth and nose with the clean side: "Susu, mask!"

Su Qing pressed the hem of his clothes as if grabbing a life-saving straw. After he stopped breathing the air with volcanic ash, he slowed down.

After reacting, he took the mask out of the space with the help of his pocket and gave two to Qi Jiang. After he put it on himself, he also put it on for Shanshan who was coughing.

Shantu's legs were bleeding all the way, his face was very pale, his breathing became a little weak, and he dared not close his eyes.

Whenever he wanted to fall asleep, Shanshan would cry out in Su Qing's arms as if he could sense it, and her cry made Shantu force him to open his eyes again.

Before Qi Jiang helped him put on the mask, Shantu also choked and fell into a semi-comatose state after coughing. He couldn't even open his eyelids, and only moved his eyeballs when Shanshan screamed.

There were many people standing outside the cave, and some fireballs flashed across the sky, and the buildings on the water surface in the distance were hit by fireballs and ignited a big fire, illuminating the nearby waters.

Waves hit the shore in bursts, volcanic clouds shrouded Fengcheng, and Foshou Mountain continued to erupt in the distance, and the magma and fire pillars illuminated the sky. The water became more restless.

The magma covered Foshou Mountain and flowed into the water. The temperature of the nearby water rose rapidly and quickly spread to other places.

If someone dives here, they will find that the ground near Foshou Mountain is cracked, and the inside is full of magma pouring out, and accompanied by vibrations, these cracks are still expanding, and it seems that a more terrifying eruption is brewing.

At this time, Su Qingfei was in the air, and found that there was no place to land, and there was no way to go home from Fengwai Mountain.

The air was full of fireballs and volcanic clouds, and the air became very cloudy. People who escaped from the cave coughed uncomfortably. The entire Mount Fuluo became like a virus laboratory, and coughing sounds were everywhere.

Su Qing looked towards the coast of the canyon in the southeast. Because of the turbid air, his lungs felt uncomfortable every time he took a breath. He didn't speak, but wrote on the palm of Qi Jiang's hand: "Brother Jiang, let's go home from there."

Fengwai Mountain is in the northwest, and the canyon coast is in the southeast, which means that they have to take a long detour to get back home.

He didn't know if Shantu could hold on, but it was too dangerous to stay in Fengcheng now, and they had to leave.

Qi Jiang had no objection, just nodded in agreement, and then followed Su Qingfei away.

At this time, the entrances and exits of the large iron gates of the refuge were almost completely blocked by mud piles and stones. The hill-like roadblocks left less than a quarter of the gap in the large iron gates, making it even more difficult for people inside to leave.

The outside of the cave was very crowded, and the people inside ran into a fleshy wall as soon as they ran out. Out of fear of the cave, they stretched out their hands like crazy: "Get out of the way, let me...cough cough cough!"

They didn't dare to speak very soon, they just pushed people desperately to get away from the man-eating cave behind them.

The earthquake caused the earth and rocks on the mountain to roll down, and the volcanic ash made it difficult for everyone to stand still. Even if the people on the top did not stretch out their hands to push, they fell down. Because the crowd was so crowded, most of them did not fall to the ground, but fell to people. body.

The crowd became more crowded, and many people fell to the ground, hitting others and triggering a series of chain reactions, moving down the mountain uncontrollably.

They are like sea lions standing on the edge of a cliff, being pushed and pushed towards the cliff by their own kind at a loss.

When they came to the edge of the cliff, they were pushed and shoved by the same kind behind them and fell to the bottom of the cliff, where they were bruised all over.

People at the water's edge cannot escape the fate of being in the water. They either lose their balance and fall, or are pushed down, or are hit by the waves and fall, while their vacated positions are quickly occupied by others.

More and more people fell into the water, and everyone couldn't climb up. They cursed in their hearts while coughing shiveringly in the water, feeling a bad premonition in their hearts.

Because of the earthquake, the expulsion formation in the shelter was broken, and some mutated fish far away from the shelter smelled the smell of prey, and happily wanted to come over for a big meal.

Fuluo Mountain is far away from Foshou Mountain, so fortunately there is no fireball, and the magma is also far away from them, so they are much luckier than the two refuges in the west and north.

But unfortunately, the threat of the volcanic eruption made the mutated fish near Foshou Mountain flee one after another. Because Foshou Mountain is in the northwest, they all chose to flee to the southeast, which is the farthest from Foshou Mountain.

And Fu Luoshan is on their only way.

Foshou Mountain is still erupting in a small scale. Fortunately, the big eruption that sprayed the mountain into the air and disintegrated never happened again, but the vibration from the ground did not stop, and even intensified.

Just when everyone nervously looked at the night sky dyed red by Foshou Mountain, thinking that their biggest threats were volcanoes and earthquakes, the mutated fish arrived before the volcanic eruption.

puff!

A big fish jumped up from the water, opened its big mouth and happily swallowed its prey. The prey was too small for them, and they could swallow many of them without chewing.

These prey, which used to be hidden in strong houses and require a lot of effort to eat, suddenly lost their protection today, and even the annoying fire formations were gone. The hungry mutant fish were delighted Ruo Kuang joined in this rare feast.

"Ah! There are mutated fish!"

"There are mutated fish, let me go up!"

"Go ashore quickly, pull me up, don't!"

There were screams one after another on the water, and everyone was like a school of fish in previous documentaries, dispersing in horror and wanting to stay away from natural enemies, but only a few lucky ones could escape the claws of death.

The screams made the people on the mountain very scared, and everyone panicked, but more and more people fell into the water.

The lighthouse that has been standing tenaciously on the top of the mountain has long since collapsed, as if telling mankind that this shelter has come to an end and danger has come.

Teacher Han and the others have been trying to maintain order, but there are too few people available. Whether it is the soldiers under their hands, the patrol team that has just taken shape, or the employees of various departments, most of them have been killed or injured.

In order to escape, a lot of supplies were left in the cave, and they didn't even have all the lighting equipment.

Now there is no way to set up the formation, and the Dragon Horn Knife, which is more deterrent to the mutant fish, is also in the fleet. They can only watch countless people being swallowed by the mutant fish.

The fleet used to transfer citizens day and night, and would not go back to the shelter. Now Mr. Han doesn't even know where they are or whether they are still alive.

All the entrances and exits of the cave were blocked in the end, and the people outside could hear the desperate cries for help inside, intertwined with the screams from the bottom of the mountain, which made the people outside couldn't help crying.

They really want to save people, but they are powerless, because the air is too turbid, they have difficulty breathing, they can't even stand still, and there is no way to save others.

Finally, the people in the water remembered that they still had weapons.

"Brothers and sisters! We have weapons! Don't be afraid of these bloody fish!"

"Resistance may lead to life! If you don't resist, you will die! Kill me!"

There was a fight on the surface of the water, like a mantis holding a chariot, each weapon fell out of the owner's hand and fell into the water, slowly sinking to the bottom.

More and more mutated fish arrived near the shelter and surrounded the shelter layer by layer.

At this time, the people on the mountain tried to climb up to a higher place, but they dared not stop because they were hit by stones and their heads were covered with blood.

There were very few people left in the water, and some mutants of the water system were afraid of climbing ashore and falling off, so they didn't go back to the shore at all, but left the refuge, desperately avoiding the attack of the mutated fish to fight for a life for themselves.

An hour later, the waters around Fu Luo Sanctuary were stained red with blood. The mutated fish found that no prey had fallen for a long time, and they continued to flick their tails unwillingly to make waves.

Finally, someone else fell.

At this time, Qi Jiang and Su Qing had already detoured back home.

The air outside was very fresh. Although the earthquake from Fengcheng had spread here, it was not severe. It was worse than the previous small earthquake that lasted for a long time.

They had already taken off their masks, and when they landed at home, the frightened Jin Jin screamed and ran out.

Su Qing didn't have time to comfort him at the moment, and together with Qi Jiang helped the comatose Shantu stop bleeding and disinfect.

Shantu's left foot was severed below the calf, and his right foot was also cut, but the bone was not touched.

His injury was serious, but Su Qing and the two could only do their best to help him bandage first, and then sent Shantu to a new base with professional medical personnel.

Su Qing didn't feel safe in the new base, and wanted to go home after sending people there, but Shanshan didn't want to go back, and kept holding Shantu's hand and didn't want to leave.

They fought side by side for several months, and Su Qing understood her feelings.

"Let's put Shanshan here first, let's go back first." Qi Jiang also felt that this place could not give him a sense of security, and he needed to go home.

Su Qing took another look at Shanshan, thinking that it was much farther away from Foshou Mountain than Snowless Mountain, so he left with Qi Jiang in peace.

Back home again, Su Qing and Qi Jiang cleaned up the remaining bloody smell in the house, sat absent-mindedly in the corridor, and looked at Fengcheng in the distance.

The eruption of Foshou Mountain was very different from the volcanic eruptions they had known before, and the spread of the volcanic cloud was also very strange.

In the past, the propagation speed of the volcanic cloud was about one kilometer per hour, but when Su Qing and the others left the cave, it only took about ten minutes, and the volcanic cloud had already spread throughout Fengcheng.

The speed is staggering.

According to this speed, it should also spread to the sea, but when they flew to the coast of the canyon, the volcanic cloud strangely stopped spreading by the sea.

It's like the ocean rejecting the volcanic cloud: This is my territory, no outsiders allowed!

Similarly, the Fengwai Mountain area is so close to Foshou Mountain, the volcanic cloud is also blocked by a strange air wall from reaching there.

Just as the ocean rejects the volcanic cloud, Mt. Fengai rejects the volcanic cloud.

Even the vibration has been weakened a lot.

It seems that nature is deliberately controlling the range of influence of the eruption of Foshou Mountain, just like the expansion of the outside world. Each area seems to be connected in the current space, but in fact it is independent of each other.

It's like a folded piece of paper is slowly unfolding, and the dividing line between each square will be very clear before unfolding and flattening.

But because these blocks all exist in a piece of paper, it is difficult for them to be truly independent, so the sound of the eruption of Mount Foshou was not intercepted like a volcanic cloud.

Qi Jiang is a little suspicious. Before the paper is fully unfolded, the space where each area is located will not really merge at a certain level, but maintain a certain degree of independence.

Time passed quickly, and an hour later, the magma fissure that spread out from Foshou Mountain had spread to twenty kilometers away, and the energy in the ground seemed to be brewing to the extreme.

boom!

A huge pillar of fire rushed into the sky, and the terrifying sound waves spread far away. Su Qing and Qi Jiang, who were [-] kilometers away, suddenly had tinnitus and lost the sound of the outside world.

The Buddha's Hand Mountain, which lost its upper half, exploded. This time, it was not pushed up into the sky, but on the ground, like a watermelon loaded with a bomb, which shattered at the moment the bomb exploded.

The fragments of the mountain were scattered and turned into cannonballs. With the mushroom cloud as the center, all the buildings and hills with a radius of [-] kilometers were destroyed, and most of the fragments were also blocked. speed to destroy obstacles ahead.

Fortunately, the speed of these mountain debris is decreasing rapidly as the flight distance increases.

To the west of Fengcheng, the Vajra Temple refuge, [-] kilometers away from Foshou Mountain, was hit by a piece of mountain debris. Another [-]% of the survivors who fled outside died.

And the mountain in the middle of the fragment also cracked and collapsed into the water immediately, and ninety-nine percent of the survivors left this world on the spot.

In the north of Fengcheng, the Runhe Shelter, 45 kilometers away from Foshou Mountain, also encountered the same thing, but they are far away, so the situation is a little bit better than that of the Vajra Temple.

The volcano blew up all of Foshou Mountain and collapsed. It was still erupting desperately, louder and louder each time, and a huge amount of magma was sprayed out. The terrifying temperature evaporated [-]% of the water within a radius of [-] kilometers, and also made the water here change. It was very hot.

This eruption lasted for half an hour, and the ground around Foshou Mountain suddenly sank. The nearest King Kong Temple and Runhe Shelter only felt a horrible shaking, and the whole mountain was crumbling.

At this moment, the eruption stopped abruptly, and the entire Fengcheng Basin fell 50 meters down.

The sense of crisis lingering in Su Qing and Qi Jiang's hearts suddenly disappeared, but because of this long-term volcanic eruption and land subsidence, Fengcheng really realized what it is like to be in dire straits.

Without him, because there is magma under the feet, the temperature of the water is too high, and too many people fall into the water and are continuously burned.

When the crisis was over, Qi Jiang stood up: "I'll go and get the Longjiao Dao back, and see what I can do there."

"I will go with you."

Qi Jiang pondered: "Then let's take the fleet to the shelter."

Su Qing immediately understood what he was thinking, and took out a new map drawn by themselves: "You mean, let everyone move to the canyon coast first?"

"Well, help if you can." Qi Jiang nodded slightly.

Since you want to help, do your best, Su Qing put away the map: "Then I'll go to the fleet, and you can go to Fu Luo Shelter."

Qi Jiang didn't want him to leave his field of vision, but with his speed, he could find the fleet quickly.

Qi Jiang would never be able to do this by himself.

Now that the volcano has stopped erupting, the gas mask can filter the volcanic ash, so breathing is no problem, and Su Qing can fly again, so there won't be much danger.

Thinking of this, Qi Jiang felt relieved, and nodded slightly: "Then be careful, if you encounter danger, run away quickly and leave others alone."

"I will."

After finishing speaking, the two left the new base, put on gas masks and flew back to Fengcheng by detour.

Su Qing's speed was very fast, and he found the fleet in Fengcheng in just 10 minutes.

Fortunately, the surrounding buildings were destroyed, but their boat was still alive.

Unfortunately, fifty ships sank, along with the survivors on board.

The fleet was originally going to rescue and transfer at night, but as soon as they set off, Foshou Mountain erupted, and they hurriedly sailed away from the northwest direction.

After the fireball landed, they were forced to transfer to the building. Before the transfer was completed, fifty ships were hit by the fireball one after another and sank directly.

Su Qing asked everyone to go with him. Thanks to the blessings of the past, the helpless people also believed in Su Qing as before, and immediately transferred the survivors to go with Su Qing.

They headed for the coast of the canyon at the fastest speed, and even the survivors on the boat spontaneously organized their hands and paddled to speed up.

An hour later, they arrived at the coast of the canyon, and everyone unexpectedly discovered that a large section of the canyon separating the Fengcheng Basin and the ocean had collapsed.

After the collapse of the Fengcheng Basin, the water level of the seawater was slightly higher, and the seawater flowed back into the Fengcheng Basin, and Fengwai Mountain replaced the Fengcheng Basin as the coastline.

It won't be long before the water in the Fengcheng Basin will completely turn into seawater.

Because of the influx of sea water, it is very difficult for them to sail, and it is also very difficult to go ashore now.

Fortunately, everyone is a mutant and has their own methods. In addition, they found that this place is indeed very safe, so they all climbed ashore at their fastest speed and went to the place designated by Su Qing to camp.

At the same time, Qi Jiang returned to Fu Luo Sanctuary. He frowned deeply when he smelled the strong smell of blood, heard everyone's screams and the sound of mutated fish jumping out of the water and returning to the water after hunting.

The mutated fish that originally hated the fire element tasted the sweetness, even though the water was full of magma, knowing that the volcano would not erupt again, they hunted in the water with endless enthusiasm.

Qi Jiang took out the Dragon Horn Knife to run his mind, and the aura of a top hunter was released powerfully. Seeing the mutated fish school, he was still a little reluctant to leave. Suddenly, a surge of anger surged in his heart, his chest trembled, and he learned without a teacher. Make a sound wave.

Roar!

The terrifying roar spread two hundred kilometers away. At this moment, all the creatures who heard the sound seemed to be able to see a giant black beast with wings and two horns roaring in the sky, showing their status.

The mutated fish that were eating happily in the water suddenly stopped, the fear deep in their veins woke them up, and they all left Fengcheng in horror and fled into the sea.

It took Qi Jiang some time to find Mr. Han and explain why he came and what Su Qing was doing.

After finishing speaking, he found that Mayor Gao was not there, and his face changed slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions, but followed Mr. Han's arrangement to go to the rescue.

Gradually, he found that Mr. Han seemed to help him reproduce Su Qing's way back then.

After realizing this, Qi Jiang took the time to find Mr. Han: "Mr. Han, the burden you gave is too heavy. I can't bear the hope of everyone's survival."

"You can afford it. Fengcheng needs to create its own brand and let everyone know where the road is. I'm too talented to do it." Master Han didn't expect him to be so sharp, and he wasn't very surprised when he thought of his previous identity. , sighed helplessly, "both Lao Gao and I think that you and Su Qing have great potential. You have a pen and a weapon, and you both have the grace to save everyone's life. You can afford it."

Qi Jiang frowned: "We never thought about..."

"We used to think about it slowly, but now that Lao Gao has sacrificed, the power of the sky is unpredictable, and I can't wait any longer." Master Han interrupted him with a choked voice, "Just treat me as an elder relying on the old and selling the old to beg you. The city needs you, I really beg you, I can't find any other way."

Qi Jiang was silent. He knew that Fengcheng had encountered more serious difficulties than mutated animals and heavy rain.

Everyone struggled to survive time and time again, and just got hope, but was shattered again and again.

As the saying goes, once you work hard, you will lose your strength and then you will be exhausted. Qi Jiang understands what Mr. Han means.

Teacher Han lowered his head and wiped his tears: "I have no one around me now, I must do everything possible to cheer everyone up, and you will not leave Fengcheng for a while, so just help me, an old man, and I will Cultivate successors as soon as possible, even if you want to leave, I will not stop you."

He cried very embarrassingly, with tears streaming down his face, but Qi Jiang's heart was hard: "Mr. Han, don't scare me."

Teacher Han paused and continued to cry: "Why would I bluff you? I know you yearn for freedom, I know you don't love rights, and I know you can live well after leaving Fengcheng. I promise you, I don't need you to participate in the management , as long as you are always at the strongest, you can occasionally cooperate with our propaganda."

Qi Jiang watched him play with a blank face, and didn't believe what he said about the useless people and that there was nothing they could do.

This bad old man has long wanted to arrest him and Susu as strong men, but he doesn't know?

Seeing that he didn't show any signs of wavering, helplessness flashed in Mr. Han's eyes, and he put away his tears helplessly: "As expected of the Patriarch of the Qi family, I really can't fool you."

"I will help you rescue, but you don't need to publicize it, and you don't need to fool me into a consultant like you fooled Susu." Qi Jiang seemed to be able to see through Mr. Han, and was very dissatisfied with this, "If you don't want Susu to lose trust with others , I took him back when I found out about it and left the job.”

Regarding this, Mr. Han felt a little guilty: "As the saying goes, those who are capable work harder..."

"It's called thankless work. I don't have the heart of a bodhisattva. I just want to clear the door for myself."

Teacher Han was silent for a moment, he wanted to threaten Qi Jiang very much at this moment.

Even if he and Su Qing disagree, he still has a way to turn Qi and Su into Fengcheng's face. Even if Qi and Su don't cooperate with the publicity, they have saved so many people. It is easy for him to do this .

As monks, Qi and Su must not be indifferent to the causal relationship involved.

They don't become cards. If something happens to Fengcheng and they leave, it's called fleeing. Otherwise, it's turning their back on Fengcheng.

The resentment of so many people, based on his understanding of monks, was not something the two of them could bear.

But he thought about it again, he didn't have enough ability to control these two people, if he got out of the game, it might be that Fengcheng would have to be buried with him at that time because of Qi Jiang's black-hearted manipulation of the Qi family.

Wanting to understand this point, Master Han was not impulsive, and instead said: "In this way, you can help me cultivate a group of talents so that Fengcheng can gain a foothold in the troubled times as soon as possible. As a reward, I will tell you a secret."

Qi Jiang raised his eyebrows and became a little interested: "First, show some sincerity."

"It's related to spiritual things, you won't suffer." Teacher Han said with some pain.

"I remember that you are poorer than me." Qi Jiang said bluntly.

"I just found out about it two days ago." Teacher Han said angrily, "Save people first, and when you settle down, you husband and wife will go to inspect the goods, and then we will talk about the next stage of things."

Hearing this, Qi Jiang's eyes flashed brightly, he nodded in agreement and continued to rescue.

No one knew that while they were struggling to survive, the undiscovered interior of the peaceful Fengwai Mountain was also churning with magma.

The magma churned strongly by the long-term earthquake has melted the rock formations inside the mountain range, forming magma caves that communicate with each other, and finally converge under the main peak in the center of Fengwai Mountain.

Under the appearance of safety and calm, a more terrifying crisis is brewing here, just like the Foshou Mountain back then.

The difference is that Fengwai Mountain is even bigger.
