Myriad Paths

Chapter 130 Rain

In the desert, in the convoy.

Li Qi was watched warily by a group of people, and his body had been searched to make sure there were no weapons.

He was then surrounded by a group of people with at least ten guns pointed at him.

The only one who didn't hold a gun was the middle-aged man at the head. He looked at Li Qi with a critical eye, trying to see through this city man.

But no matter how he looked, he couldn't see emotions like fear in the other person.

Therefore, he gave up this kind of sizing and said to Li Qi: "I'm warning you, if you don't fulfill your promise of clear water here, I will bury you in the ground."

Then, he sat down cross-legged: "Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

Seeing that the other party was finally willing to communicate, Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these people were still obedient.

So, he asked: "I want to ask, how long have you been living like this?"

"Tsk..." A young man made a mocking sound.

"Quiet, it's enough for me to speak here. Go look outside and be prepared." The middle-aged man frowned and said to the young man.

The young man did not dare to say anything. He just stared at Li Qi displeasedly and then went outside with a gun to guard against possible enemies.

It can be seen that there is still hostility towards Li Qi here.

No, it’s not hostility towards ‘Li Qi’, but towards ‘city people’.

"How long does it last? Of course it starts from birth, but we were in the polar regions before, and we have only recently arrived next to Zhang's satellite cities." The man answered.

"Satellite city?" This was the first time Li Qi heard this term.

"Don't you people in the city call it that? I still know this name from your mouth. Anyway, it's those big cities. You know, the cities surrounding the oil extraction plant are like satellites." Man replied.

"Did it start when I was born? Do you know how long it takes?" Li Qi asked again.

"From my grandfather's generation, when I was a child, I heard my grandfather say that there used to be cities everywhere, and now these roads in the desert were built at that time, but starting from my grandfather's generation, they began to shrink. ”

"After that, we won't be able to feed so many people. Only the people in the satellite city can survive. As for us, we will be left outside." The man said in a relaxed tone.

It can be seen that he really doesn't care about this. He just wants to answer the questions quickly and get the clear water that the city man in front of him is talking about.

But Li Qi could hear the horror in it.

Of all the people in the world, only those in the satellite city survived? The rest...were all abandoned?

How many people died...?

Just thinking about it makes my hair stand on end.

No wonder the wasteland outside looks like this...

"Then you are the descendants of the survivors at that time?" Li Qi asked.

"Yeah, there's no other way. People have to survive. But it's different from you. There's no water outside, and we can't farm. But it's okay. After all, the satellite cities have to exchange supplies, so they can only eat your transportation. The team is here," the man said.

When he said this, he seemed to have a faint threatening aura.

"That's it." Li Qi was not frightened, but silently remembered it and continued to ask questions.

Seeing that Li Qi was still calm, the man curled his lips. He didn't expect this city man to be so courageous.

"If that's the case, how did you get your weapons? Even if you can grab them now, where did you get the original weapons?" Li Qi asked again.

"I can't tell you this, but don't think of using this as an excuse not to give us water. As I said before, I won't answer all your questions." The man emphasized.

"I understand, then skip this topic. By the way, have you heard of the rebel organization?" Li Qi continued to ask the next question.

Unexpectedly, men reacted greatly to this question!

He directly picked up the gun, put it against Li Qi's forehead, and pressed the trigger without hesitation!

However, he is just an ordinary person.

Moreover, Li Qi was faster. He immediately lowered his head and narrowly missed the bullet.

Fortunately, the ground was full of loose soil with little nutrition, so the bullets penetrated deep into the ground without ricocheting.

The boss fired, and the others immediately reacted, pulled off the safety, and were about to shoot Li Qi to death!

But Li Qi stood up at this time, raised his hand and said loudly: "Wait a minute! I heard the news from Shar, and I saved Shar!"

The man waved his hand to stop others from shooting.

"Who are you? What's your purpose?" He grabbed Li Qi's collar and stared at him closely.

"I told you, I saved Shar and heard about you wanderers outside from her mouth! So I wanted to ask!" Li Qi replied immediately without any hesitation.

"What proof do you have!" The man grabbed Li Qi tightly and shouted loudly.

"It's just that I came to you here alone now, isn't it?" Li Qi said.

"You'd better take out the water now, and then I'll let you get out of here alive. Otherwise, even if there is a foreshadowing in your arrangement, I will let them only get your body!" The man threatened Li. start.

And his attitude has already explained a lot of problems.

Sometimes, not saying anything is also an answer.

Li Qi sighed: "Okay, I understand."

Then, the man suddenly felt like his eyes were blooming!

What followed was severe pain all over the body.

Li Qi twisted his body into an exaggerated angle, took a few steps, turned around suddenly, moved his center of gravity to his back foot, and twitched his muscles slightly. He was like a sliding snake... No, it should be said that he was like a carp that was leaping over the dragon gate, suddenly jumping out and attacking! He easily stretched his body to the limit of being able to maintain balance.

Almost everyone present was caught off guard and had no time to react. He was hit on the hand holding the gun and had to retreat repeatedly.

The man who was the first to bear the brunt was directly hit two or three times in a row. The whole person was bent like a shrimp, his face was extremely red, and he almost got bile.

They didn't expect that Li Qi could reach them at such a long distance. It looked very far away, but his attack seemed to be in front of them in an instant!

By concentrating his strength and accurately aiming, Li Qi completed more than a dozen attacks in an instant. After knocking down everyone, his body jumped directly into the air and disappeared instantly.

When he accelerated at full speed, his speed could approach the speed of sound in a short time, and the human eye could not see clearly in the dark!

So, Li Qi knocked everyone down in an instant and then fled.

Only a group of surprised people were left.

Then everyone knew why this person had the courage to come in alone.

"Don't chase!" Enduring the pain, the man shouted loudly: "Don't worry about those! Pack up your things, let's move! Run!"

Think about the man's purpose and where he came from, and those things can be discussed later.

Run away first!

The most important thing is not to die!

Everyone has been struggling in the desert for many years, walking through death, even children know the importance of quick movements.

So in a few seconds, almost all the vehicles started, and the whole camp was quickly evacuated in a roar.

"Damn it! I should have shot directly at that time!" The man covered the purple part of his body and cursed loudly.

"How can a person do that kind of action, how can he run so fast!"

"That person... is his body modified like Shar?"

The crowd whispered, and under the roar of the car engine, they kept speculating about the horrible thing that had just happened.

Can a person really do that kind of speed and strength?

He said he knew Shar, is it true?

After all, looking at his strength and speed, he is really similar to Shar.

The convoy roared forward in the night, and the group fled in fear, constantly discussing what happened to Li Qi.

Especially the children, in addition to fear, there was also the excitement of seeing incredible situations, and they kept trying to imitate Li Qi's actions just now.

But the adults were basically panicked, constantly looking outside and aiming, fearing that the monster would catch up.

The middle-aged man just felt better, and immediately asked: "Second brother, didn't catch up?"

"No, it's just...Big brother, there's something wrong." The second brother's tone was a little panic.

"What's the problem?"

"Water is falling from the sky?" The second brother's voice was a little trembling.

"How is it possible? Water is always on the ground, how can it fall from the sky?" The middle-aged man frowned.

"It's true! Look!" The second brother pointed out the window.

The man looked up.

But he saw small drops of water falling from the sky and dripping on the car window.

The convoy was in a mess and almost collided with each other.

However, people became silent from the previous panic.

"Stop!" The man shouted loudly on the car radio!

Then, before the car stopped, he opened the door and rushed down, bathing in the small drops of water falling from the sky.

He screamed loudly, as a man in his fifties and the oldest person in the entire convoy, he burst out with energy and voice far beyond his age.

"Everyone, stop the car, get down, and get water!"

"I remember! My grandfather once said! Water falls from the sky, this, this, this thing, called 'rain'!"

A rain fell in this area.

Countless people were delighted by this.

——————————

At this moment.

The girl called No. 1 was walking in the satellite city.

She was beautiful, but only beautiful, not as beautiful as a peerless beauty, probably just as beautiful as a school flower.

Just after she talked to Shar about the matter, she rushed to this satellite city.

Because she had a hunch that she would meet the two young masters here.

Then, it was time to act.

No. 1 walked quickly on the street. Before the young masters took action, she still had some things to do.

In fact, it was not a very important thing, just a way to relax.

She rushed to the dilapidated area of ​​the satellite city.

It was still some distance from the edge of the city, but the dirty and smelly environment made people cover their noses.

The narrow streets marked out a bunch of square courtyards in the open space.

In these courtyards and the rooms inside, many people lived, including men and women, some wearing clothes and some naked.

It was late at night, some people still had the strength to move, but more people were already lying together in a mess to sleep.

Yes, they sleep on the ground.

Most of these courtyards are in a dilapidated state, with piles of garbage.

The environment inside these courtyards depends on how many of the residents are not used to the garbage and stench.

There are such places in every satellite city.

This is the den of sin, filth and contagion.

The company never cares about them. Most of these people have physical disabilities and are 'eliminated' from the oil extraction sites.

Yes, the company uses the word ‘eliminate’.

And they are the ‘city dwellers’ that the team members envied and feared before.

Not all city residents have a good life; only those in the company have a normal supply of water.

Number 1 came here.

A young girl appearing in a place like this at night would probably not end well.

But surprisingly, almost no one noticed her. She was like a ghost. Even if she passed in front of these people, she would be ignored.

"Alas..." She looked at these people and then looked at the desert outside.

The company, and the Immortal...

It is the source of trouble in this world.

Number 1 walked to the center here, sat down, and bit his finger, bleeding.

Pale light surrounded her body, and the Qi from her blood surrounded her body, like fireflies surging, and like the Milky Way falling into it.

Just like the galaxy she created in the room before.

The fresh air spreads out.

Whether they were awake, asleep, or confused, they all suddenly felt that their bodies were light and their breathing seemed to be much easier.

"In this way, the disease in this satellite city can be suspended for a while, but... it cannot be eradicated." No. 1 thought in his heart.

Impossible to eradicate.

If you want to eradicate it, you can only drive all the immortals out of this world.

Then the two companies are destroyed, order is re-established, and they slowly recuperate, so that the world can be restored.

While silently expelling his illness, No. 1 suddenly raised his head and looked towards the horizon.

That's... a cloud?

Why are there clouds?

Clouds are the water vapor of mountains. There is no such thing in the earth oil world anymore. She has only heard of the existence of clouds and rain from other people outside the territory.

But at this time, black clouds really appeared in the sky.

Then, the water fell.

Is that rain?

Why is there such a thing?

Wait, No. 1 suddenly stood up, stopped his bleeding, and his expression immediately became serious.

"Young Master...!" She gritted her teeth!

He is definitely the Young Master. Only the Young Master can control the celestial phenomena to this extent!

Although he didn't know why the other party wanted to rain, it was obvious that his premonition came true.

Almost immediately, she put a hand on her temple and contacted the others: "The young master has appeared. He is in Satellite City No. 4, about twenty miles to the east."

After saying that, she actually flew up and flew towards the place where it was raining.
