Wu Quan came back to his senses, climbed up from the rubble like crazy, and went to rescue other people in the small dormitory.
Finally, when the thin Wu Quan gritted his teeth and carried the heavy old Liu to the open space, he was already exhausted and sweating profusely. He had no time to rest and quickly checked the vital signs of other children.
There were four children in the fire scene, two were ten years old, one was three years old, and one was four years old.
Of these four children, two lived and two died.
The strange thing is that the older Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng did not survive this disaster. The only survivors were the three- and four-year-old children.
Wu Quan opened the mouths of Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng. Their mouths and noses were filled with smoke and dust. He had seen this kind of death when he was in the begging gang. They were choked to death by the thick smoke in the fire.
Wu Quan's eyes immediately scanned the faces of the two surviving children, and their faces were each covered with a wet towel.
Children of this age will not understand this kind of knowledge. If Wu Quan guessed correctly, this should have been done by Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng in desperation after the fire. In the critical moment of life and death, they still chose to give priority to protecting their younger siblings. life safety.
Old man Liu probably rushed into the small dormitory after the fire broke out. He inhaled the least smoke, so he survived, but fell into a coma temporarily.
Ashes were dancing in the sky over the dim courtyard. Wu Quan looked at the bodies of Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng in silence, as well as the unconscious Shen Qingzhu and Old Man Liu, clenching his fists.
In his mind, the scene where Shen Qingzhu and Huo Lian fought for their lives just now, as well as the hoarse and hopeful words at the end, appeared.
But in the end, Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng were still dead...
He could already imagine what Shen Qingzhu's expression would be like when he saw their bodies after waking up.
Wu Quan knows his Qingzhu brother too well. He will definitely hate why he failed to extinguish the flame earlier and why he failed to rush home in time. He will stubbornly take everything on himself and live in an endless world from now on. of self-blame and regret.
Thinking of this, deep sadness and guilt appeared in the eyes of this eleven-year-old child.
He wanted to disappoint Shen Qingzhu.
"If only... you could survive."
Wu Quan hugged his knees and squatted helplessly on the ground, looking at the two corpses and muttering to himself.
Plop!
A soft sound came from the chests of Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng.
Wu Quan was stunned.
He seemed to have noticed something, and looked down at his hands, a faint halo appearing in his eyes.
Can I... control them
The idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Wu Quan stretched out his hand tentatively and waved lightly at the two corpses. The two stagnant hearts actually started beating again under the power of [The Dominant Emperor]!
The heart began to beat, and blood flowed rapidly inside the corpse. The darkness in Wu Quan's eyes became thicker and darker, and his control over the two corpses became more and more precise.
Heart control, lung function control, kidney function, spleen function, stomach function...
Wu Quan stood up slowly, waving his hands in the air like a musician conducting the corpses. The two already cold corpses actually began to glow with life.
This is not corpse manipulation, but under the condition of controlling all their organs, making this "dead" body come back to life. Their heartbeat, pulse, and blood pressure are all gradually approaching those of normal people under his control. level.
The only drawback is that no matter how close these two bodies are to normal people, their spirits and consciousness are already dead. These are just two "living corpses."
Their eyes were still empty and dead.
However, these things can all be changed through some small organs.
Under Wu Quan's control, their empty eyes began to glow, and their facial muscles continued to twitch, as if they were controlling different expressions.
A few minutes later, Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng came to life completely and stood quietly in front of him.
Wu Quan's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Ah... oh... you... Wu, Wuquan... I am Li Xiao... Yan..."
"I'm not... hurt... I'm fine."
"Brother Qingzhu... don't worry."
"Wuquan, it's time to eat!"
"What did you call him for? He is just a piece of wood. If he wants to be left alone, just leave him alone."
Wu Quan controlled the mouths of the two people to open and close, and their vocal cords trembled. After every attempt, their words and actions became more and more close to daily life, and in the end, there was no difference at all.
Wu Quan breathed a long sigh of relief, and his eyes fell on the unconscious Shen Qingzhu. After a moment, an innocent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Brother Qingzhu." He murmured to himself,
"You saved everyone..."
…
Lin Qiye suddenly opened his eyes!
At the same time, Wu Quan, who was sitting next to him, also opened his eyes.
[Memory Worm] quickly retracted into the darkness behind Wuquan, and the two just stared at each other, falling into silence.
"That's it, that's it..." Lin Qiye connected everything in his mind and suddenly realized,
"Were Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng controlled by you from the beginning
Your [Domination Emperor] can only take effect within three kilometers, so even if you go to school, you can only go to the middle school closest to the orphanage. Once you leave that range, Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng in the orphanage will immediately turn into corpses. , scared Dean Liu and other children...
No wonder you would rather kill the entire Li family than move. No wonder your first request after I caught you was to see Dean Liu.
Only by driving Director Liu away from the orphanage can Li Xiaoyan and Qian Cheng leave there. They have been keeping a safe distance from you secretly to prevent them from losing control and turning back into corpses... "
Lin Qiye looked at Wuquan with complicated eyes,
"So... these past four years, you have been playing the identities of three people?"
"It's not a difficult task." Wu Quan said slowly, "Although it was a little difficult at the beginning and I would often be disconnected from them, the later I got, the easier it became."
Wu Quan looked down at his hands, as if he was still digesting the memory he saw in Lin Qiye's mind, looking a little dazed.
What Lin Qiye intercepted for him was the memory fragment from when he found Shen Qingzhu in hell to when everyone left. But even such a short fragment had a huge impact on Wu Quan.
Wu Quan closed his eyes, lay on his back on the leather sofa, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled...
His body, which had been tense until now, finally relaxed completely, and a big stone in his heart fell to the ground.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
If Brother Qingzhu is not dead, he will definitely come back... Sooner or later, they will meet each other.
Knowing this, even if he is imprisoned in a dark prison, it is worth it.
