Qi Musheng saw Taoyao's unbearable expression, he smiled at her, and said lightly: "We were originally born in the heaven and earth, and now we are just returning to the heaven and earth, no matter whether it is human or other things. Things will come to this day sooner or later, you don't have to be sad."
Taoyao can understand the reason, but she still can't accept Qi Musheng's death, obviously just agreed, obviously he has other ways to exist in this world, why did he have to choose such a drastic method
"Mayor Qi, why are you doing this? There are countless possibilities when you are alive, and you really have nothing when you die."
Tao Yao couldn't understand Qi Musheng's choice, just like her, when she found out that she was not Qi Wang's opponent, she immediately chose to surrender to Qi Wang, relying on Qi Wang's spiritual power to have a human body, although with this There are many restrictions in the world of form, which is completely different from the free life she dreamed of.
However, such she is at least alive.
"Mayor Qi, don't be so stubborn, isn't it good to be alive?"
Qi Musheng shook his head and said softly: "You don't understand."
Taoyao really doesn’t understand, she doesn’t understand why some people don’t want to live, they don’t have the right to choose life and death when making trees, natural disasters and man-made disasters, anything can kill them, their lifespan is very long, but relatively, life It is also fragile, and may die in various accidents before it is too late to live to the end of its life.
There are many disadvantages of being a human being, but there are also many things that being a tree can't compare to. After the second mutation, Taoyao is much smarter. If she had to choose, she would actually like to live like she is now.
It's just that Qi Musheng has made up his mind, and it's useless for others to say anything. She looked at Qi Musheng who was getting thinner and thinner with a sad face, her heart seemed to be blocked by a big rock, and tears flowed from her eyes uncontrollably. slipped down.
Qi Musheng closed his eyes slowly, he felt the sun blowing through his body, the sun was warm on his body, the feeling of being a human being is different from being a tree, if he could choose, he would actually not want to die.
But his pride does not allow his future life to be in the hands of a human being. He is not Taoyao, and he cannot tolerate being like Taoyao, relying on another person to survive.
He can't choose many things in this world, but he can choose his own life and death.
At the moment when the figure completely faded away, Qi Musheng opened his eyes, glanced at Qi Wang, he opened his mouth, and said a word to him, Qi Musheng had completely disappeared before he finished speaking.
The moment he disappeared, the towering tree that had grown for more than 1,500 years in the distance collapsed, but before its body fell to the ground, it had already turned into ashes and disappeared. Except for the lucky bags all over the floor and the huge deep pit proving that the old locust tree once existed, it has left no trace in this world.
Several members of the guards looked at each other, looking at the huge deep hole on the ground, everyone sighed, and always felt that this matter was resolved too easily.
After Xu Yiming hesitated for a moment, he said, "Do you find this scene familiar?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but they quickly realized what happened in Peach Blossom Village.
How similar is the current scene to the previous one in Taohua Village? At that time, the mutated peach blossom tree was only more than a hundred years old. This time, the mutated old locust tree has lived for more than 1,500 years. According to common sense, this mutated old locust tree can only be as difficult to deal with as It's more than that, but now they only encountered some difficulties at the beginning, but not long after they turned their heads, the mutated old locust tree died inexplicably.
"Are we lying down and winning?"
I don't know who said it, but when other people thought about it, they also felt that it was the same thing. Isn't it just lying down and winning? They have received so many orders before, and they have seen not one hundred, but eighty mutant creatures, but none of them are as easy to deal with as they are today.
Zhang Wenwei looked at the huge deep pit on the ground, with a look of regret on his face: "It's nothing else, but it's just a pity that such an old locust tree, which lived for more than 1,500 years, finally died like this Yes, it is also a great loss for humanity."
There are not many species in this world that can survive the dark era, let alone old things like the old locust tree that have lived for more than 1,500 years. Although it can't reach the level of a living fossil, but It is also a rare treasure for human beings.
It's just a pity that a sudden meteorite rain destroyed everything, and the various creatures on the earth underwent a second mutation, and they were no longer as docile and harmless as before, which led to human beings having to take action against them.
In fact, from which side's point of view, they are not wrong, but they are just for survival. It's just a pity that they belong to different species and they still stand on the opposite side after all.
Different from the other members, both Xiao Longfei and Luo Xinghe had serious expressions on their faces.
After Luo Xinghe pondered for a moment, he slowly said: "Captain Xiao, what do you think about this matter?"
The mutated old locust tree was still alive and well before, and its offensive was very fierce. It can't be said that it can't be done, and there must be a reason for it.
After contacting the similar incidents they encountered in Taohua Village before, the answer is ready to come out—in these two incidents, there are shadows of Qi Wang and Taoyao.
What Luo Xinghe couldn't figure out was, how strong were these two people? It only took them an hour and a half to enter Luoshui Town with all their fights. What did those two people do? How could they kill the mutated old locust tree so easily
Xiao Longfei shook his head and said: "I don't know either, but there is never a shortage of amazing geniuses in this world, we can't judge them by the standards of ordinary people, maybe those two people are more powerful than we thought. Even more powerful."
What Xiao Longfei didn't say is that he now feels that what the villagers of Taohua Village said before may not be exaggerated. Qi Wang may really be a hidden strongman. Clearly, the only one who can't figure it out is Qi Wang. This time, Qi Wang may have contributed to it.
But all of this still has to wait until seeing Qi Wang and the others.
"Don't say anything else now, let's meet up with Qi Wang and the others."
Hearing this, Luo Xinghe didn't say anything more, and together with Xiao Longfei led the rest of the guards towards the broadcasting room.
The square outside the broadcasting room was lying in disorder. After countless town residents saw their appearance, the members of the guard team were startled, thinking that they had encountered an accident. After checking and confirming that they just fainted, everyone was relieved. Then he went towards the direction of the broadcasting room, and when he arrived at the broadcasting room, he saw Qi Wangtaoyao and Qi Shaoqin staying inside safe and sound.
After seeing Xiao Longfei and the others, Qi Shaoqin asked, "Have you seen Mayor Qi? We were attacked by Mayor Qi just now, and he should be completely controlled by mutant creatures."
Just now Qi Shaoqin was completely unprepared against Qi Musheng. After being plotted against by Qi Musheng, Qi Shaoqin's heart hurt badly, and then he passed out without knowing anything. After waking up, he found that his mental power had been severely injured, and his operation was stagnant. Unsmooth feeling, her spiritual power core seems to be faintly damaged, which is why Qi Shaoqin can't calm down.
If there is really something wrong with her mental power core, then her life will be ruined, and she will become inferior to ordinary people. How can Qi Shaoqin, who is used to being a spiritual power person, accept that she has become An ordinary guy with nothing to offer
"What did you say? Mayor Qi was manipulated by mutant creatures? He also attacked you? Have you confirmed that he was only attacked by mutant creatures? Did you find anything wrong with him?"
After hearing Qi Shaoqin's words, the first person to speak was Luo Xinghe, he asked one after another, not caring about Qi Shaoqin's injury at all, his attention was basically on Qi Musheng.
Qi Shaoqin was enraged by Luo Xinghe's series of questions: "Deputy Captain, didn't you notice that I was injured? But now you are still asking me about these things? Could it be that you don't care about my injury at all? We are one Members of the guards, don't you think you are too cold-blooded?"
In fact, Qi Shaoqin was very talkative in the past, but now because she finds that her mental power core may have been damaged, she can no longer maintain her previous personality, and she is much more aggressive when speaking.
Luo Xinghe closed his mouth in embarrassment, but his eyes subconsciously drifted to Tao Yao and Qi Huan who were standing aside. Compared with the pale Qi Shaoqin, the two people's condition was much better.
His eyes flickered for a moment, and he turned to ask Qi Wang: "Qi Wang, did you and Taoyao find anything wrong? If you found out, I hope you can tell us the situation. Now that we are one, it is better to be honest."
However, although Luo Xinghe was talking to Qi Wang, he focused more on Taoyao. Taoyao was very uncomfortable being looked at by Luo Xinghe's gaze, so she turned her body to the side reluctantly, avoiding it. his gaze.
Intuition told Tao Yao that this man seemed to be suspicious of something.
Qi Wang didn't hide anything, and said directly: "Qi Musheng is indeed not the mayor. He was married to a puppet created by the mutated old locust tree. The mutated old locust tree attached his spirit body to the puppet. He tried to He controlled the residents of the entire town, but something went wrong during this period, and his mental power dissipated."
Hearing this, Luo Xinghe frowned tightly: "You mean Qi Musheng died for such an inexplicable reason?"
Qi Wang nodded, and asked back: "Otherwise, what do you think, do you think that Taoyao and I can have such a powerful force, and can kill the mutated old locust tree so easily?"
Luo Xinghe fell silent, and didn't answer Qi Wang's question, and Qi Wang didn't care.
In fact, Qi Wang is not lying, because the mutated old locust tree chose to die by himself. Qi Wang never did it. It was Qi Musheng who was unwilling to rely on Qi Wang's spiritual power to survive, thinking that he would lose his freedom, so he chose Destroy your spiritual power and disappear into this world cleanly.
Luo Xinghe was dubious, but from Qi Wang's face, there was no sign that he was lying. Xiao Longfei and other members of the guard felt that Qi Wang's words should be fine, because if it was really Qi Wang who killed and mutated the locust tree If so, then it is absolutely impossible for him to pass this credit on to other people.
"I don't think there is no possibility of what Qi Wang said. After all, mutant creatures have not existed in this world for too long. We don't know them very well. Maybe it's the greed of the mutant old locust tree that caused Things have become what they are now.”
"Forget it, now is not the time to talk about these things, Shaoqin is injured, we should send her to the hospital for treatment first, as for the other town residents who are unconscious, we should let professionals handle it .”
Xiao Longfei made a final decision, and the other team members also had no objections.
They notified people from relevant departments to come over, while others sent Qi Shaoqin to the hospital.
Qi Shaoqin's previous worries were a little unnecessary. Her mental power was indeed damaged, but there was no problem with her mental core. It was just her illusion before, which made Qi Shaoqin feel a lot. If her mental power is damaged, she only needs to drink some mental power After taking some medicine, he can recover after a period of cultivation. Qi Shaoqin was worried about his body, so he stayed in the hospital.
Others headed home and took transportation back to school.
But this time they only received a deposit, because the person who contacted them was a puppet made of a mutated old pagoda tree, so they couldn't receive the final payment, but because what they eliminated this time was a puppet with a history of more than a thousand years. For the old locust tree, Xiao Longfei and Luo Xinghe even wrote a special report and submitted it, proving that the mutated old locust tree really had evil intentions and hurt the residents of the town, so their work was over.
After accepting such a business, but not much money was earned in the end, one member of their team was also injured, and everyone in the escort team was in a bad mood, so in the next few days, in order to make up for this loss, they They received a lot of orders, and they basically didn't come back to school for the next half a month.
It's not that Xiao Longfei never thought of inviting Qi Wang and Taoyao to eliminate mutant creatures, but the two said that the reason why they agreed to join temporarily last time was because of Qi Shaoqin. There is no need to continue to communicate with the guards.
Joining or not joining the escort team is entirely voluntary, since they are not willing, Xiao Longfei and others have no reason to force them, and quickly gave up the idea of pulling them into the team.
***
Ever since she came back from Luoshui Town, Taoyao has been languid all the time, she has no interest in doing anything, even her favorite surfing the Internet, she has a sad face every day She looked so good, she was almost holding a loudspeaker to announce to the world that she had something on her mind.
Qi Wang knew what Taoyao was struggling with, but he couldn't comfort him about this kind of thing, so he had to wait for Taoyao to figure it out.
Parting between life and death is the normal state of the world, no creature can escape, she has to get used to it sooner or later.
"Qi Wang, I want to talk to you, can I?"
Not long after Qi Wang came back, Sheng Yueying came to the door, she put on a cute and pitiful look, and looked at her with a begging look that Qi Wang was very familiar with.
For Sheng Yueying in the past, this move can be said to be tried and tested, every time she showed this appearance, no matter what she said, Qi Wang would agree.
Although Qi Wang has changed a lot since meeting here, Sheng Yueying still has the attitude of giving it a try, and appears in front of Qi Wang in the same way as before.
Qi Wang looked down at Sheng Yueying who was standing not far in front of him, didn't speak, just stared at her quietly.
However, being looked at by Qi Wang with such eyes, Sheng Yueying felt very uncomfortable, she moved her body a little uncomfortably, and still kept that expression of crying.
She really needs to have a good talk with Qi Wang.
"Ok."
Just when Sheng Yueying thought that Qi Wang would not agree to her, the other party suddenly let go and agreed to talk to you, Sheng Yueying froze for a moment, her eyes showed a look of confusion, but she quickly realized, There was an unmistakable look of joy on his face.
"Really? Qi Wang, I..."
Qi Wang didn't pay attention to Sheng Yueying, but turned around and walked towards the artificial high-tech forest not far away.
Looking at his indifferent back, Sheng Yueying bit her lip, with a hurt look on her face.
He never treated himself like this in the past, is he still angry about those things in the past
Thinking of this, the two walked into the small forest one after the other.
"Qi Wang, I actually regret it."
