Chapter 23 Chapter 23

Crash. The elevator door below opened, Tan Guanghe turned his head and glanced down.Bai Xiaozhou took the opportunity to grab Xia Xi, rolled over and jumped into the elevator. A pair of strong hands stretched in from the elevator door, hugged the two of them in the air, turned around, and backed out.Tan Guanghe jumped down and saw a tall man pointing a 92-type pistol at his forehead. "Who are you?" The man's eyes were cold. Tan Guanghe looked him up and down, grinned, and smiled: "You are Sima Fanti? You really look like your father." Bai Xiaozhou sat on the ground, Xia Xi supported her, both of them were surprised.They wouldn't be surprised if the basement was full of body parts, but it was clean and bright, with overhead lights and sophisticated instruments everywhere.Qu Siqi and Zhu Yikai sat side by side in the corner, and Long Chuxia was holding a cup with some red liquid in it, and was pouring it for them.There was an autopsy table in the middle of the room, on which lay a dead body. Qin Zheming was wearing a white coat and was dissecting.

What the hell is going on here?Who was the dissected person? Sima Fanti looked at Tan Guanghe in surprise, his hand holding the gun drooped slightly: "Are you...Brother Tan?" A flash of light came to Bai Xiaozhou's mind, and he exclaimed, "I remembered, Tan Guanghe, I saw your name in the file, you are the boss of the No. 9 Research Institute! But, you died ten years ago It's gone!" "Brother Tan, are you still alive?" Sima Fanti couldn't suppress the surprise in his eyes, and said excitedly, "Where have you been for so many years?" "I'm already dead." Tan Guanghe walked in slowly, with steady steps, as if he was looking for the most suitable position.Long Chuxia could tell at a glance that his position was very subtle, and it was the best place to attack or retreat.

Sure enough, he is a master. "I died ten years ago, together with my comrades in Qin's Village." There was a faint pain in the middle-aged man's eyes, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, "I came back just to know the truth .” "No one knows the truth." Sima Fanti put down his gun, "Where did this psychic virus come from, and who sent your subordinate—Lin Chen to the martial arts tournament? These are all mysteries." "When things happen, there must be a reason. I can't let my comrades die in such an unexplained way. I must investigate to the end!" Tan Guanghe emphasized his tone, and Bai Xiaozhou saw the blue veins on his forehead, knowing that he Do your best to suppress your emotions.

What happened back then must have deeply stimulated him. His body suddenly rose into the air, and Bai Xiaozhou turned his head to the side, seeing Long Chuxia hugging him horizontally, and gently placing him on the chair beside him, checking her foot injury. "What the hell is going on here?" she whispered. "What is a psionic virus?" "It's a long story, and I'll explain it to you slowly later." "Do you think I don't want to know the truth?" Sima Fanti gritted his teeth and growled, "My father died in the tournament that year. The man behind it is trying to catch us all!"

Tan Guanghe raised his eyelids and stared at him carefully, as if looking at a monster: "I heard that you were the only survivor of the tournament?" As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, Bai Xiaozhou lowered his voice and asked, "Teacher, what martial arts tournament?" "This is the tradition of the Research Institute. Every year, a martial arts competition is held. Fifty research institutes must send elites to participate. Each research institute has no more than five or six people, and a maximum of ten people, so every martial arts competition is almost full of strength. .”

Bai Xiaozhou gasped. Could it be that the major event that caused the members of the research society to be exhausted ten years ago, so that the research institutes were closed, and the research society existed in name only, was this "psychic virus"? "No, I'm not the only one, there are also my father and Uncle Li." Sima Fanti paused, some emotions spread in his eyes, he wanted to say something, but he never said it. "However, because of his serious injuries, my father didn't survive for two years and passed away." Tan Guanghe looked at him slightly changed: "Why are you still alive? As far as I know, people who have been poisoned by this kind of poison first have hallucinations, have serious violent tendencies, have mental breakdowns, and eventually brain death."

Sima Fanti frowned, and his eyes shot out: "Then, why are you still alive?" The eyes of the two collided in the air, like swords clashing, the atmosphere dropped to freezing point for a while, and swords were on the verge of breaking out.Bai Xiaozhou was so nervous that her hairs stood on end. If there was a real fight and the bullets flew around, where would she hide? "Damn it!" Qin Zheming suddenly shouted angrily, "Failed again!" "What are you doing?" Bai Xiaozhou looked at him puzzled, then at the corpse, "Who is that lying down?" Qin Zheming was in a state of desperation, completely ignoring Sima Fanti and Tan Guanghe, who were fighting with swords, hurriedly cleaned up the experimental instruments on the table, and started the experiment again, without even raising his head: "Cut Throat Angel."

"Ah—" Bai Xiaozhou screamed, her voice was so penetrating, everyone was startled by her, and turned to look at her.Qin Zheming said: "People are dead, so there is no need to react so much?" Bai Xiaozhou was sweating profusely, with tears in his eyes: "Teacher, can you tell me when you set my bone, it hurts like hell." Long Chuxia fixed her wound with an iron plate and stood up. "The little girl's matter is settled, now let's settle the matter of you two elders. You—" she pointed at Sima Fanti, "You want to avenge your father and find out the truth, right? You ——" Pointing to Tan Guanghe again, "You want to avenge your dead subordinates and find out the real culprit behind the scenes, right? In this case, our purpose is the same, why make the relationship so rigid? We shouldn't be side by side Fighting, advancing and retreating with life and death?"

The two men looked at each other without speaking. "Okay, if you want to fight, keep fighting. It's best to fight once, and we can still bet on winning or losing." "I bet Afan... Boss Sima wins." Bai Xiaozhou interrupted, "Ten yuan bet." "Hey, can you do something serious!" Qin Zheming wiped the sweat from his forehead, dozens of hours of high-intensity work had brought him to the brink of collapse, "Boss, the blood is used up, hurry up and shed some blood Give me." Tan Guanghe was startled suddenly, as if some emotion broke through his retina and landed on Sima Fanti: "Your blood?"

"That's right, my blood." Sima Fanti didn't seem to want to hide it anymore, "The martial arts tournament back then turned into a field of Shura, everyone was killing each other, only I still had reason. I wanted to stop them, but At that time, I was just an ordinary person with no supernatural powers. My father wanted to kill me, he slashed my chest with his knife, the blood sprayed on his and Uncle Li’s faces, their movements became sluggish, and then fell down I went down. I dragged them to a hiding place and hid them for a day and a night. I didn’t help them out until there was no sound outside. After three days and three nights of emergency treatment in the hospital, they finally came back to life.”

Bai Xiaozhou was secretly surprised, so Sima Fanti's blood can also cure this virus?However, it seems that the effect is very poor, and the blood must be applied to the poisoned person to be effective. She lowered her head and looked at Xia Xi. In this way, this boy is really a rare treasure. "My father later took me to ask Master Long, my blood is rare and can dissolve filth." Bai Xiaozhou turned his head to look at Qin Zheming. There was a computer on the table behind him. This basement should have its own generator. Sima Fanti called him here to use his blood to study special medicine. "Don't talk nonsense." Qin Zheming was about to die of anxiety, "Hurry up and bleed." "Wait." Bai Xiaozhou pushed Xia Xi a step forward, "This kid can also dissolve filth, as long as he gets close to him for a certain distance, he can wake up from the hallucination. If Tan Guanghe and I can get here alive, it is It's all up to him." Several pairs of eyes fell on the teenage boy. With a look of fear on his face, he turned around and grabbed Bai Xiaozhou's clothes and begged: "Sister, he, do they want to use me for experiments? I don't want to do it." I'm afraid of the experiment, I don't want to be dissected." After speaking, tears welled up in his eyes, and Bai Xiaozhou quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, with me here, no one will hurt you." "We only need your bodily fluids." Qin Zheming looked very excited, and when he was excited, his expression was wretched, like a Frankenstein who abducted Xiao Zhengtai, "Your blood, your saliva, and your semen..." "You don't need that thing!" Bai Xiaozhou glared at him, and he had an expression of "you don't understand": "This kid is not young anymore, is it normal?" "Do you think everyone is like you?" "Stop arguing." Long Chuxia interrupted them, "Time is running out. We must develop a special medicine before 'thorough disinfection', otherwise none of us can get out alive!" She pressed Xia Xi's shoulder, and Xia Xi instinctively Backed off.She said: "My child, I believe that it is not accidental that you are here." Xia Xi seemed to be greatly frightened, and raised her eyes to stare at her.She continued: "God arranged you here, maybe it is to help us develop a special medicine to treat this psionic virus. Now we are all waiting for you to save us, are you willing to save us?" "I, I..." the boy muttered, "I'm afraid of pain." "I promise, it doesn't hurt at all." Long Chuxia stood up, asked Qin Zheming to bring a needle, and pricked his hand, and blood beads gushed out immediately, "Look, it doesn't hurt at all." Xia Xi looked back at Bai Xiaozhou, Bai Xiaozhou nodded at him, he bit his lower lip, and nodded accordingly, Qin Zheming happily led him over to extract body fluids. Tan Guanghe looked at the team in front of him, a trace of sadness and nostalgia surfaced in his eyes again, he put down his gun, walked quietly to the side and sat down without saying a word. The quieter the more dangerous, Sima Fanti also went to the side and sat down, his eyes locked on him all the time. "Teacher, what happened back then?" Bai Xiaozhou asked in a low voice.Long Chuxia said: "After the Qinjia Village incident, Tan Guanghe's team was sent to solve the problem, but none of them came back. Shangfeng discovered that the village was permeated with a kind of psionic virus. In order to prevent it from spreading, Shangfeng decided to , thoroughly disinfect it." Bai Xiaozhou was startled and said, "Aren't you going to save the people in the No. 9 Research Institute?" Long Chuxia was silent for a while before saying: "Sometimes you need to make a choice, no one is the savior, no one can save everyone." Tan Guanghe sneered when he heard this sentence. "What happened at the tournament?" "In the middle of the martial arts competition that year, there was an explosion under the rostrum. At first, they thought it was a terrorist attack, and there were quite a few people offended by the seminar. But later, they discovered that the explosion was not iron filings, but flesh and blood. You must have imagined what happened afterwards. After the killing, it was thoroughly disinfected, and it was a miracle that Sima and the others could come out alive. Shangfeng originally wanted to isolate the three of them completely, and I am afraid that he even thought about killing them. The three of them did not find that kind of virus, and my master came forward to negotiate with the people on the peak, and finally won them back their freedom." Suddenly, the corners of her mouth rose, and a self-deprecating smile overflowed from the corners of her eyes, "but now, my master Gone." "So..." Bai Xiaozhou opened his eyes wide, "Didn't they plan to sacrifice you from the beginning? If so, why did they let us come?" Long Chuxia turned his head to look at her, and after a while of silence, they both said in unison: "Shut up!" "Is our life so worthless?" The two turned their heads together and saw Zhu Yikai standing behind him. "Kaizi, are you awake?" "Damn, it hurts to death." Qu Siqi said while exercising his muscles and bones, "If you let me know which bastard beat me up like this, I will kill him." In fact, it was Zhu Yikai, Bai Xiaozhou said in his heart, it's better not to tell him. "Ten years ago they could sacrifice my team, and ten years later they could sacrifice you." Tan Guanghe's cold eyes swept over everyone's faces, "No one would throw away watermelon to pick up sesame seeds, we are the abandoned sesame seeds." "If we are sesame seeds." Sima Fan said angrily, "What are Xiaozhou and the others? They might not have used it." Long Chuxia sneered and said, "If we go missing, Kaizi and the others will definitely investigate to the end. Now it's not like ten years ago. Once the news about the thorough disinfection of the entire mental hospital gets out, what will happen?" Sima Fanti stood up, and everyone could feel the strong anger gushing out of his body, which was as hot as a flame, and the temperature in the basement seemed to rise several degrees: "Is this the meaning of the research institute, or the meaning of a higher level?" ? Does Mr. Chu know?” Mr. Chu?Bai Xiaozhou looked at him in surprise, who is Mr. Chu?Wait, it seems that the honorary principal of Ninghua Academy is surnamed Chu, can't it be him? "Let's ask these questions after we get out." Long Chuxia shrugged, "Our first priority now is to survive." "Damn it, it failed again." Qin Zheming started to get mad again, he poured the pink liquid from the beaker into the sink, "Xiaxi, give me some more of your blood." Xia Xi was a little scared, but still stretched out her hand tremblingly.Bai Xiaozhou glanced into the sink: "Why did the water turn green?" Qin Zheming's tired eyes suddenly shot a bright light, and he rushed to the sink excitedly, and sucked up a few drops of remaining liquid with a straw.Sure enough, it was green. He danced with joy, more excited than winning the Nobel Prize, and shouted: "I succeeded! I succeeded!" "Have you found the special medicine?" Qin Zheming nodded, "But now we need to conduct human trials." "I'll come." Long Chuxia said. "No, you drank the boss's blood, there is no virus on your body, it is not suitable." Bai Xiaozhou pointed to the elevator: "Isn't there a ready-made one over there?" Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, and there was a middle-aged man covered in blood lying in the elevator. "Is he still alive?" Qu Siqi expressed doubts. Sima Fanti went over and touched the main artery in his neck: "He still has breath." After finishing speaking, he carried him on his shoulders and was about to go out when Tan Guanghe suddenly moved. He walked very fast and rushed to the elevator entrance. Pressing the elevator button, the elevator doors slammed shut; he rushed to Qin Zheming in a few steps, and knocked him unconscious with his palm.He hugged the weak Xia Xi into his arms, put a pistol against his temple, and said to the people rushing over, "Don't move!" "Tan Guanghe." Long Chuxia asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?" Tan Guanghe sneered, raised the Glock 17 and fired several shots at the experimental equipment on the table, the glassware was smashed, and various liquids flowed everywhere. It happened that Sima Fanti opened the elevator door and rushed out. Seeing Tan Guanghe with a fierce face, he said angrily, "Brother Tan! Why did you do this?" "Why?" Tan Guanghe's sharp eyes reflected grief and pain, "Because of your father! Back then he was the president of the research association, and he was the one who ordered the Qin Family Village to be thoroughly disinfected!"
