Chapter 27 Night Run

At night.

The sky is dim and the night wind is howling. Today is a rare rainy day.

Yu Qingqing waited for a long time after waiting for a car wreck next to a supermarket before showing her head and looking around. Several alien species blocked the intersection of the street several meters away, and the scenery further away was hidden in the hazy red light and shadow, just like a tall and majestic monster.

So she walked out carefully, ran to the glass door of the supermarket, and pushed the door open.

It was very dark inside, and she instinctively shrank her neck, thought for a while, and waved behind her.

A stout alien dressed in the uniform of a US lieutenant came over and followed her.

Qingqing whispered: "Go."

The alien walked silently into the dark supermarket.

This is a big supermarket, and the vast and far-reaching space is silent and dark. The alien species, whom she calls "big man", took a few steps, stopped and shook his head left and right, and thrust his nose.

But he seemed to smell nothing and continued to walk deeper. The wide chest of the alien species was hidden in the shadows, and the night wind on the street whirled, wrapped in worn newspapers, and dirty clothes crumbled into the alley next to the street. As soon as the strong wind passed, raindrops fell down. The dust accumulated on the ground was smashed by one after another, causing a faint smell of earth.

The rain came very quickly, and it soon became a piece of rain and mist. The scenery a few steps away was no longer visible, with only the sound of rolling thunder and heavy rain between the sky. However, the rain reflected the red light of the sky, and it did not look like it was raining, but it seemed like it was bleeding.

A large area of ​​water vapor spread up the steps, wetting Yu Qingqing's shoes. She had to lean against the glass door and shrank inside, and took another look-the big man had not come back.

After a while, even the small hiding place at the entrance of the supermarket was occupied by rain. The wind turned around and poured it over with rain, pouring the little girl into a chicken.

Yu Qingqing bit his lip with his sharp little teeth and murmured: "Not afraid...Not afraid...Not afraid..."

Then he closed his eyes and opened the glass door and hid in.

However, there was a deep darkness inside. She only dared to put her back tightly against the door, widened her silver eyes and looked into the dark space, pricking up her ears to catch even the slightest sound.

In fact, she was not afraid of ghosts - otherwise she wouldn't have run to the cemetery on the mountain alone to play.

She wasn't afraid of those alien species either - although they looked hideous and terrifying, she could make them obedient like puppies.

What she fears...

Even she herself didn't know what it was. Maybe it was the unknown darkness, maybe it was the unknown way forward, or maybe it was... something else that might suddenly jump out, full of mouths on her?

Because she is the only one. And the city is dead, with only aimless aliens wandering around on the streets - they long for any fresh flesh and blood, but they will not say even a warm word.

Yu Qingqing subconsciously reached into his arms and pinched the three small notes.

Then she heard a clattering sound and a slightly heavy footstep. She pursed her lips tightly and stretched out a hand.

The "big man" came out of the darkness. Yu Qingqing then breathed a long sigh and ran to the alien side, pulling his uniform pants tightly on his legs.

The alien made a low "ho" sound, as if expressing helplessness and doubts. But in the end he moved his foot carefully and led the little girl beside him to the supermarket deeper.

Yu Qingqing's golden pupils gradually expanded, capturing the faintest light. The surroundings slowly appeared in her vision - although not real, they could be called "clear".

For her, the shelves were quite tall, and all kinds of plastic-packaged food were scattered on the ground. Yu Qingqing let go of his hand and ran a few steps to pick up a pack of things printed in English...

However, the powder inside spilled out from the scratched opening and spread into a thin piece on the ground.

She pursed her lips, threw away the plastic bag, and then pulled the big man and walked inside. There were many things scattered on the ground, but most of them were broken or empty in packaging - there were almost nothing intact.

So she remembered something-

Vivian gave her chocolate a few days ago. It was a box of beautifully packaged heart-shaped white chocolate decorated with pink ribbons. Where did it come from? She had never thought about it before, but today she knew it.

Someone must have been here, and they plundered all the intact things and sent them to the ground.

This means...

This city is not as she thought, it is a "no man's land" where only alien species exist.

Her little heart suddenly jumped, and she pulled the big man to the deeper, running to the end of the long shelf, and stopped to the point where a place similar to the administrator's office stopped and gasped quickly.

In fact, the current embarrassment stems from her own choice. The "Holy Spirit" told her that it gave her the first disciple "power" - unrivaled power. That kind of power can make it ignore the vast majority of the abilities and tyrannically destroy all obstacles in front of it.

But it takes a price to gain strength - the fragile human body must be transformed. She will become a more terrifying appearance than a alien species, and will even give birth to horns and membrane wings, becoming no longer like a human.

The little girl gave up this choice after only a few seconds.

She didn't want... to appear in front of that person in that way.

Therefore, the "Holy Spirit" gave her "wisdom". Her body was still fragile - far more fragile than most capable people. But she could give the alien more things than just transform them into monsters that only know how to crave blood and tender flesh.

She also learned another thing from the consciousness of the "Holy Spirit".

A long time ago, when its so-called "Lord" was still alive in this world, the "Lord" could do so. The gift of the "Lord" is stronger than the "Holy Spirit" - it can even another person preserve human form and gain nearly the power of the "Holy Spirit".

The "Holy Spirit" promised her to leave here and do "anything she wants to do". However, what made Yu Qingqing understand that there was almost nothing in this world that could be obtained without a price.

Why did that thing help yourself?

Is it just because "that's not what you should be"?

Her little mind was in chaos. The feeling of hunger disturbed her thinking. Her clothes were pressed against her body, and it was even more uncomfortable because of the cold environment in the supermarket. The water flowed slowly along her skin, like countless thin snakes.

She clenched her lips, stood up again, slowly walked aside, looking for something to fill her stomach.

Ten minutes later, she found a bucket of water. The plastic at the mouth of the bottle was sealed, and thick dust accumulated. She wiped it clean with her sleeves, but it couldn't be opened. So she looked at the big man and pointed at the mouth of the bottle with her finger.

The big man tilted his head in confusion and opened his mouth to approach her. Yu Qingqing hurriedly avoided it and pushed his face next to the barrel of water with his little hands: "Open it."

The big man shook his body and finally stretched out a hand with sharp nails and stroked the bottle.

With a squeak, the plastic film and the soft plastic plug were scratched together. Then he let out a "huh" with satisfaction, straightened up again, blocking Yu Qingqing like a wall.

Yu Qingqing squatted on the ground, stretched out his hands to slowly pull the bucket of water, and then put his mouth close to the opening.

The sweet water moistened her mouth and esophagus and flowed into her stomach. She drank several sips and suddenly felt dizzy in her mind.

It seemed that the water had reawakened her hunger - nearly seven hours of running and highly nervous mood consumed too much calories. She poured back with a "ah" sound, and the barrel of water was rolling on her.

The big man suddenly turned around, his face full of confusion and anger. He looked around and finally landed his eyes on the bucket of water. So he howled lowly, grabbed it, and threw it away from the side. A muffled sound, mixed with the sound of the shelves falling. Yu Qingqing was shocked and hurriedly supported himself-

But I saw the big man bent down angrily and alertly, panting, and glaring at the place where the bucket of water fell.

It took her only one second to understand the reason.

The big man is an alien species - he has been alienated for more than a year. Even she cannot make this guy completely restore human consciousness and become smart and rational. Now his IQ is more like a large dog. Seeing that the barrel of water pressed Yu Qingqing, this guy instinctively regarded it as an enemy of some kind. Now he is demonstrating and roaring at the "enemy" to protect the little girl behind him.

She burst out laughing. Then she smiled, her sharp little teeth bit her lips again, and the laughter turned into low sobs.

because……

I haven't felt this way for a long time. There is actually a "person" who protects himself so cautiously and carefully for something.

Even if this is a terrifying and hideous alien species.

She pulled the big man's trousers and whispered, "Okay..."

"I'm not afraid..."

The tall alien turned his head, gasped fiercely for a few more times, and slowly straightened his waist. Then he returned to his dullness and stood quietly in front of her.

Yu Qingqing raised her hand and wiped her eyes with her sleeve. After thinking about it, she walked to the side and picked up a few bags of scattered food. She still had a broken mouth or had become empty. She picked it up for a while and her eyes lit up.

There was a large bag of seaweed. There were small packaging inside. Several small packaging was still good and not damaged at all. She shouted happily, remembering what her mother said to her a long time ago, so she opened the large packaging bag to see the shelf life.

By February 21, 2016.

So she couldn't wait to tear open the packaging bag, fill her mouth with seaweed, and chew it up. After eating a few bags, she pulled the big man's legs, made him bend down, and put a piece of seaweed into his mouth. The alien species was obviously no longer used to this taste - or he didn't like it before. He chewed it, then frowned and spit out, shook his head and walked to the side.

Yu Qingqing laughed out loud.

Another thunder rolled over the sky, and the big man shook his head uneasily. But Yu Qingqing felt his head start to get heavy, and sleepiness invaded her mind. She thought for a while, climbed into the middle of the two tilted shelves, dragged a large empty box to seal the entrance, and curled down quietly.

Before she fell asleep, she said softly: "Good night."

The alien sniffed and said nothing.

She didn't know how long she had slept - she hadn't woken up once. But when she opened her eyes, it seemed that the sky had already shone brightly, and a faint light shone in from above her head.

She yawned, and then realized that she was not in her small room now. The clothes on her body had dried up, and the small space was filled with warmth.

She was free. When she thought of this, her mood suddenly improved.

So she grinned and looked up at the exit. Then she suddenly opened her eyes wide and hid there and did not dare to speak again.

The light came in from the top of her head - the cardboard box that blocked the entrance was gone!

She covered her mouth and sucked air quickly through her fingers. Then she tried to feel the alien species - the four she arranged at the intersection of the street had lost contact, and only the big one was still there.

He was not far away from him, but... he couldn't come!

Yu Qingqing "worked hard" in his mind again - an angry roar came over.

But still didn't come over.

But the footsteps sounded. It was the rhythmic and light footsteps, which made the packaging bags on the ground creak. Then they stopped outside. The figure was reflected in the small space by the light, and Yu Qingqing gritted his teeth and did not make a sound.

Then I heard a familiar sigh: "Qingqing, come out."

It's... "Uncle Rong".

Glory tree.

She widened her eyes and slowly lowered her arms.

"Come out." The voice was gentle, "Look at you sleeping heavily, and didn't wake you up. Come out to eat something."

Yu Qingqing bit his lips tightly, hesitated for more than ten seconds, and slowly crawled out of the gap in the shelves.

It was indeed bright, and the light in the supermarket was still dim. But there was a small marching stove not far away, and the flames in the stove brightened the surroundings. There was a small pot on the stove, which seemed to be stewing something.

And alone sitting by the fire, looking at her.

Yu Qingqing stood up, turned his head and looked in the direction of the "big man". He collapsed to the ground, his limbs twisted at strange angles. But he didn't seem to feel the pain, and only made a low and angry "hoho" sound.

She pursed her lips tightly and held her little palm behind her back.

This is the look of a quarrel girl - she left the adult far away, leaned against the shelf, clenched her fists and lowered her head, and her body shook slightly.

Rongshu sighed: "Eat something and go back with uncle."
