After the fog, I became a birdman

The sandstorm roared outside, and Qi Jiang was making alchemy in the study.

Su Qing hugged Shanshan and sat on the sofa, occasionally paying attention to the movement in the study, but most of the time he was thinking about what Teacher Han said yesterday.

"My survey team reached as far as [-] kilometers below the waterfall. Due to the expansion of the plate, many mutated animals were sent to extremely far places before, and now they are scattered on both sides of the Yu River. The plague killed many lives downstream of the waterfall." Mr. Han had a complicated expression when he said this, "The survey team didn't think they cared too much at first, they decided that we wouldn't set foot in those areas in a short time, the mutated animal died, everyone will be safe to go out in the future, who knows..."

"Before they left, they discovered that some mutated animals had quarantine stamps on them, and the city they belonged to was Gaocheng."

This was the news revealed by Mr. Han before they left the office.

This also means that Gaocheng is just downstream of Yuhe Waterfall, and the plague upstream of them is likely to affect Gaocheng downstream.

Four days had passed since they went to meet Mr. Han. After they left that day, Mr. Han simply took two detoxification pills, and asked them to send the rest to the coast of the canyon.

The effect of the detoxification pill is very good. After being dissolved in water and diluted, one pill can cure nearly ten thousand patients, and the required material is only one medical jelly.

In contrast, Jiedu Pill has increased the utilization rate of medical jelly by a hundred times without weakening its medicinal properties.

At present, the daily output of medical jelly in the Trench is about [-] parts, and this [-] parts of jelly could only treat [-] patients before, and many patients died of various reasons before they could wait for treatment.

After the birth of Jiedu Pill, more than 200 million patients have come back to life in the past three days. After the rest of the patients found that the hope of recovery is getting bigger and bigger, even if they can't hold on anymore, they hang on to their last breath and refuse to swallow.

Now, the job of the two of Qi Jiang is to take turns refining the elixir, sending the elixir to the coast of the canyon on time every day, and bringing back the medical jelly and the corresponding auxiliary medicinal materials to be refined the next day.

Yesterday, after Su Qing refined the elixir, he sent it to the coast of the canyon with Qi Jiang, and found that Mr. Han had come here to preside over the transfer, so he happened to have a chat with him.

In other words, it was Mr. Han who pulled them to talk, the main purpose was to get the two of them to agree to the previous training on credit.

Originally, Su Qing and Qi Jiang were not prepared to think about it, but when Mr. Han told Gao Cheng's whereabouts, Su Qing's heart was shaken.

Gaocheng, Huang Lao's hometown.

As soon as he thought of this connection, Su Qing subconsciously put up his defenses, and when he thought that one of the two vice-ministers in the cultivation department was Huang Lao's cronies, he felt even more uncomfortable.

He always remembered that when his grandfather was dying, he didn't say a word about Mr. Huang, the brother who worshiped him. He was in poor health before and didn't have time to think about it.

The more he thought about it, the more absorbed he became, he didn't even know that Qi Jiang came out with the medicine box.

"Susu, what are you thinking?"

Su Qing came back to his senses, the cold light in his eyes disappeared quickly after his eyes touched Qi Jiang, and he smiled slightly: "It's nothing, why did you come out so soon?"

"I suddenly had some inspiration today, so I moved a little faster." Qi Jiang put the box on the table beside him, took Shanshan out of Su Qing's arms and put it aside casually, and carefully patted the cat on him. Mao's eyes gradually filled with satisfaction.

His possessiveness became more and more terrifying, and now he couldn't even see the picture of Su Qing hugging his daughter, and he didn't even allow a cat hair to stay on Su Qing's body.

Shanshan rolled his eyes, turned his head and curled up on the sofa.

Su Qing counted the pills in the box and found that the number was more than yesterday, which meant that Qi Jiang's success rate had increased again.

"You've improved faster." Su Qing said with a smile in amazement.

"It's all taught well by Master." Qi Jiang wiped off the smell of mountains in Su Qing's hands with the handkerchief he had covered all night, pulled it up and smelled it, saw that his breath had been caught, and smiled with satisfaction , "What were you thinking just now?"

He even asked the second time, so Su Qing didn't hide it, and said some things about the past.

Then, Su Qing hesitated to make a decision: "Listen to Mr. Han, after the plague is resolved, he should start to arrange the contact with Gaocheng. If we keep not agreeing to Mr. Han, he should then Find Mr. Huang."

Qi Jiang understood in his heart: "You don't want Mr. Huang to meddle in Fengcheng's affairs?"

"Well, I don't want to, I feel uncomfortable." Su Qing frowned, a little tangled, "But I think it's too troublesome for us to intervene in the Fengcheng base."

Qi Jiang understood what he meant.

Teacher Han wants them to conduct a long-term training and train as many people as possible.

After all, both Su Qing and Qi Jiang are the best in Fengcheng in terms of both cultivation and mutation ability. If they can learn from them for a long time, they don't have to worry about not being able to cultivate talents.

But for Su Qing and Qi Jiang, they don't have this time.

They haven't figured out their own mutation ability, and there is still dark matter to be studied. How can they focus most of their energy on the Fengcheng base?

After thinking for a moment, Qi Jiang patted Su Qing's hand to reassure him: "You can discuss the training method and the number of people, leave it to me, but what do you really think?"

Su Qing pursed her lips and shook her head: "I don't want to get too involved with Fengcheng. As it is now, it's best to be neighbors, but I also want to place my own people in the Fengcheng base, or the cultivation department."

"I remember the deputy director of the cultivation department, one named Zhou Yihan?" Qi Jiang thought of this person, "How about this person?"

"The talent is not good, and the means are mediocre. If you continue to live in the Fengcheng base without other adventures, you will be like this for the rest of your life."

There was a flash of light in Qi Jiang's eyes: "Do you want to train new people?"

Su Qing smiled and nodded slightly: "The people in the cultivation department are getting more and more useless. This is obviously because the people in the former cultivation world pay too much attention to the glory of the past and want to follow the path of their ancestors too much, and they don't pay attention to the mutation at all. The road caused them to stay where they were.”

Although it's not impossible to break it back, but Su Qing is not one of them, so why bother?It's better to find a piece of white paper and draw directly on it to save effort.

After all this time, the base has been cultivating mental skills. There are so many people in Fengcheng, it is too easy to find a person with high talent.

"How many people do you want to pick?" Qi Jiang continued to ask.

"Three, let's teach for a month first, and then keep the most outstanding ones." Su Qing roughly calculated the time, with great confidence in his words, "Probably teach for two or three months, even those with good talents should get started. Well, according to the current level of everyone, it is enough for him to stand out from the crowd."

Qi Jiang filtered Su Qing's request in his heart, nodded slightly: "That's fine, I'll go to the coast of the canyon to deliver medicine tomorrow, let Master Han prepare..."

In the middle of the conversation, he suddenly paused: "This person, should we choose it ourselves?"

"Let Mr. Han choose a group of people. He should be ready when the plague is over, and then we will choose by ourselves." Su Qing believed in the people he picked out by himself, and he looked outside again after speaking, "Eight There are seven other Weifeng peaks besides Shanshan, so they all have owners, right?"

"Well, they're all monsters."

Su Qing smiled with satisfaction: "A ready-made whetstone."

Seeing that he was confident, Qi Jiang knew that he already knew how to train, and said a little uncomfortable: "You are really going to take an apprentice."

From now on, he will no longer be Susu's only disciple, tsk, I'm not happy.

"It's fine if you don't accept it?" Su Qing lowered her head and covered her lips with a smile, "I'll be the patriarch."

Qi Jiang's eyes lit up, and he hugged Su Qing and kissed him. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Shan Shan peeking at her, and he turned sideways to block her sight.

"By the way, we have enough wind attribute spirits, so should we go to Fengwai Mountain to steal a house?" Su Qing suddenly thought of what he said before.

"Go." Qi Jiang nodded of course, "Wind attribute spirits are scarce, and they will definitely be useful after the stabilization period. There is no harm in stocking up."

"According to the current number of sick people, in another five days, all the sick people will be cured?" Su Qing roughly estimated.

"Well, but the Fengcheng Basin still needs to be purified, and there is also the Yuhe River downstream..." Qi Jiang made the calculations and felt that he needed to use a lot of detoxification pills, so he decided to leave the follow-up matters to the Fengcheng Base to deal with. "We'll just throw the detoxification pill into a nearby water source, and let Mr. Han and the others do the rest."

He will not take this job.

"Then we have a lot of things to do." Su Qing felt that he would continue to be busy, counting with his fingers, and the more he counted, the bigger his head became, "To get our wind-type spiritual objects, we have to go to Fengwai Mountain to steal a house, and we have to train ..."

While talking, the sandstorm outside stopped, Su Qing yawned: "Forget it, go to sleep."

In late August, the Fengcheng base and the Canyon Coast base were successfully resolved.

The volcanic eruption killed nearly half of the people in Fengcheng in their hometown, and one-third of the remaining half fell under the plague, high temperature, sandstorm and other difficulties.

So far, only 3000 million people in Fengcheng, a city of more than 1000 million people, have survived.

There is antidote on the human side, and people from the canyon coast began to move to the Fengcheng base one after another, and everything is thriving.

There were corpses of mutated animals all over the field. Now that Su Qing wanted to make alchemy, he didn't have time to burn the corpses. However, under the high temperature, these corpses did not stink like before, but were quickly dried into mummified corpses.

Every water source has become a source of pollution. Except for the mutated animals that stored water in the past, all others are sick. Almost all mutated animals appear sick. Even Fengwai Mountain has become a sick area.

Because human beings are migrating, there are still some people who were cured and fell ill because of it. If there is no detoxification pill, it is unknown how many people died on the way.

Their homeland is here, and if they want to solve it completely, the diseased area in the wild must also be cleaned up.

Even if they don't like mutated animals anymore, Su Qing and Qi Jiang still put a batch of detoxification pills in various water sources, and they didn't even skip Fengwai Mountain.

The detoxification pill took effect very quickly, and the area where he lived was no longer a ward. Seeing that he could travel with peace of mind, Qi Jiang asked Mr. Han to find someone to refine the pill himself, and he just let go of the follow-up matters.

Today's weather is very hot. From noon to three o'clock in the afternoon, the highest temperature can reach 95 degrees, and the lowest temperature at night is [-] to [-] degrees.

Under this terrifying temperature, it was difficult for the fish mutants to go out even at night, and most of the time they could only squat in the cool cellar and drink water non-stop.

Qi Jiang and his little cliff couldn't bear it even during the daytime. During the hottest period at noon, the indoor temperature can reach 35 degrees, which also made Qi Jiang and Su Qing feel the scorching heat of summer at home.

However, after a long time of intense heat, although 35 degrees seems high, for Qi Jiang and the others, it is just a little sweating, not as difficult as before.

In fact, it’s not just them, whether it’s humans or animals, their bodies are quickly adapting to the high-temperature weather under such a high-temperature challenge. Otherwise, even if they hide underground and in the shade, they will probably be full of dead bodies. Everyone It is also impossible to last until now.

Unable to sleep at noon, Su Qing took out a map and counted the assets at home.

The location of the Trench, that is, the place where the medical jelly is produced, is a total of two wind-type spiritual mines, the output of which is three stars and five stars respectively. Excluding the [-] copies that Mr. Han asked for, they still have [-] copies.

The price of the pill formula is an eight-star wind-type mine, and the price for refining the detoxification pill is a five-star fire-type spirit mine.

That is to say, they now have [-] wind-type spiritual objects and [-] fire-type spiritual objects. Even if the inventory in the space is not included, as long as they dig all these spiritual mines, Su Qing's wings can directly enter stabilization period.

Seeing this, Su Qing was a little excited, looked up to see Qi Jiang, the smile on his face disappeared slowly, and he was a little worried: "Brother Jiang, a lot of wind-type spiritual mines have also been discovered, all of which are special attributes, why is the thunder-type spirit Things are less than the wind element?"

If this continues, can Qi Jiang's wings reach a stable stage?

"The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and my current speed is enough." Qi Jiang reassured him.

Where is the problem of speed?This is a matter of evolution. His current speed is sufficient, but only by continuing to evolve can he get in touch with deeper things.

Su Qing knew that Qi Jiang also understood these things, and just skipped mentioning them to reassure him.

It is useless to talk about this matter, Fengcheng base is busy with relocation, and the problem of the plague has just been resolved. They just took advantage of the time when Mr. Han's training candidates were not determined to dig the spirit mine.

Su Qing thought, he had to take a good look at the world under the waterfall, it would be the best if he could find one or two lightning mines.

After three o'clock, the hottest time period passed, and the temperature in the room slowly dropped. Su Qing wiped the sweat off her body with a towel, and then went to sleep.

As night fell slowly, Shanshan, who was already self-reliant, licked his paws, stretched himself in the cat's nest, and came to the door of Dad's room: "Meow~"

Hearing her daughter's voice, Su Qing yawned and sat up, went out and hugged Shanshan and kissed: "Father and uncle are going on a long trip today, and they won't be back until a few days later. Remember to hide the prey you catch and wait for it to come back." Dad will pack it for you when he comes back."

"Meow~" Shan Shan rubbed his father's neck, then waved his hand, jumped on the window sill, opened the window and jumped out.

Watching his daughter go out, Su Qing went back to wash, Qi Jiang came over and hugged him from behind, kissed Su Qing's ear, his voice was hoarse because he just woke up: "Shan Shan went out?"

Su Qing nodded while brushing her teeth, her voice was indistinct: "Well, let's go out soon."

Qi Jiang hummed, stood next to him and brushed his teeth, and put his other hand on his chest to pick up the cat hair left by Shanshan, with a disgusted expression on his face: "I really love shedding hair."

"Don't you lose hair too?" Su Qing patted his hand speechlessly, gathered his collar to cover the red marks on his neck, rinsed his mouth to spit out the foam in his mouth, and washed his face with a towel, "Hurry up brush teeth."

He moved quickly. After washing his face, he went out to change clothes and fold the quilt. Qi Jiang's eyes followed him all the time. He waited for Su Qing's figure to disappear behind the closet before turning his head reluctantly. He touched the tooth marks hidden behind the scales on his neck. Laughed lowly.

After washing, Qi Jiang went out to change clothes, Su Qing had already folded the quilt, and was carefully picking up a few feathers on the bed, and neatly put them in a box.

After changing his clothes, Qi Jiang went over to take a look, and said lightly, "Susu, why are your feathers falling out more than mine?"

His is only half a box full, while Su Qing's is almost full.

Guilt flashed in Su Qing's eyes, he lowered his head to make the bed and did not dare to look at Qi Jiang: "I am evolving faster than you, and it is normal for me to shed more hair than you."

is it?

Qi Jiang thought back to the feathers he picked up when he was making the quilt a few times ago, Susu also had a few feathers every day, which was about the same as his number, logically speaking, it shouldn't be that much difference.

However, he never thought that Su Qing would lie to him, so he didn't think too much about it, he just thought that Su Qing was shedding more hair intermittently.

Getting ready to go out, the two first went to see Jinjin as usual, and seeing that there was a flame pattern on his eggshell today, they knew that it was not far from breaking the eggshell.

However, there is no sign of Jinjin's shell breaking yet, so they continued to block the hole and flew downstream.

The second wind system mine is about [-] kilometers away, and the farthest wind system mine is [-] kilometers away, which is also the farthest distance all survey teams have ever been to.

They plan to dig the farthest spiritual mine first, and then dig the five-star spiritual mine when they come back. As for the nearest cave, which is the cave that Qi Jiang went to before, because the mining team at the Fengcheng base is mining , so Qi Jiang and the two plan to ask Mr. Han directly for ready-made ones at that time.

Because Qi Jiang was not fast enough, Su Qing dragged him to fly.

His reaction ability is now faster than before, and his speed has improved a lot because of this, but when the sandstorm came at two o'clock in the morning, they had only flown half the distance.

According to Su Qing's reminder, Qi Jiang built a cave for them with a dragon's horn knife, blocked the entrance, and the two of them escaped from the sandstorm inside.

Several lanterns hung on the wall of the cave, illuminating the area of ​​about ten square meters. Qi Jiang laid out the tablecloth and neatly placed the food on it.

"Susu, it's time to eat."

Su Qing responded, spread the quilt on the mattress, and then went to have dinner with Qi Jiang.

The sandstorm lasted for an unusually long time today, and it didn't stop until eight o'clock in the morning. By this time, the sun had already come out, and Su Qing and Qi Jiang in the cave were woken up by the heat early.

They thought that if the sandstorm stopped in two or three hours, they could continue to fly for a certain distance, but since they can't go out now, they can only do the summer work first.

The cave is no better than at home. Although the temperature is about ten degrees lower than outside, they are still uncomfortably hot.

Qi Jiang dug in with a dragon horn knife, and it was about twenty meters deep before he felt a coolness, or a chill.

They were pleasantly surprised that there was actually an ice-type spiritual vein hidden in this mountain. Because the aura of this spiritual vein was extremely restrained, Qi Jiang could only discover the abnormality when he was about 50 meters away from the spiritual vein.

With ice-type spiritual veins, today will not be difficult.

"Susu, just rest here, and dig in the afternoon." Qi Jiang found a relatively strong place and dug a small cave, "You make the bed first, I'll expand the passage, and then measure the size of this spirit vein .”

"Then be careful." Su Qing nodded while making the bed.

About two hours later, Qi Jiang came back with a happy face: "This is a big mine, and there are tens of thousands of spiritual items, so we sent them out."

"It's a pity that it won't be used." Su Qing smiled and shook her head, feeling a little regretful, "It would be great if the mine can be dug out and enjoy the cool."

No matter what kind of spiritual thing it is, as long as it is dug out, it will gather all the leaked spiritual energy back into the body, such as the ice-type spiritual vein, they can enjoy the cool and summer heat here, but there is no way to cool down the house with the ice-type spiritual thing home .

"There's no way, the spirit veins are like this." Qi Jiang is not greedy, it's not bad to have such an unexpected joy.

Spiritual veins will grow, even if they dig out all the spiritual mines, new spiritual mines will be born in a few days because of the special aura here, so Qi Jiang marked this spiritual mine on his map again , ready to dig a new one after a while.

It is not easy to dig out tens of thousands of spiritual mines, but for them who have the space, it is not difficult.

With the Dragon Horn Knife in hand, Qi Jiang directly divided the Ling Mine into several large portions, and let Su Qing take them away after the sun went down.

They continued to fly forward and arrived at their destination after one o'clock in the morning.

They spent a total of five days going out this time, and when they came back, the gold on the golden egg shell was even more golden, and the flame pattern on it became more vivid.

Shanshan's hunting life in the past few days has also been very fulfilling. Although she can't successfully hunt prey every day, she has also hunted three prey in five days. The success rate of more than half is enough to show her progress.

After dealing with some trivial matters, the familiar formation appeared in the study. Su Qing meditated in the center of the formation. In front of him was a pile of spiritual objects of the three elements of Fengshui and Fire, in the shape of ores, crystals, scales and so on.

A huge cyclone surrounds Su Qing, like paper absorbs water. As the wings grow, each feather on them is outlined to represent water and fire, or represent oceans and flames.

About three hours later, both sides of Su Qing's wings were dyed sea blue and golden red respectively, and the patterns on the feathers gradually disappeared until they disappeared.

Qi Jiang was guarding the Dharma next to him, and suddenly felt a pressure, as if facing a threat of the same level, he subconsciously wanted to let out a sound wave of roaring, but he held it back, and brought the mountain that was so frightened that he hid in the corner of the wall Fly out of the Snowless Mountains.

Bursts of coercion came from the top of the mountain, as if telling the nearby creatures that a terrifying bloodline was waking up.

Both monsters and half-monsters in the Snowless Mountains gave up the water source they depended on for survival, and withdrew from the Snowless Mountains as if avoiding death, and retreated downstream in a mighty way.

The sandstorm did not come tonight, but the sky began to thunder. Amidst the rumbling thunder, it seemed that a certain vision was brewing.

At home, the color of Su Qing's wings is also changing rapidly.

The left wing and shoulder feathers are the color of the deep sea. There is a barely visible blue in the black. The color becomes lighter as you go down, just like coming from the deep sea to the shallow sea. The deep blue gradually turns into the blue of the shallow sea. Blue, with a hint of white at the end of the flight feathers, like waves.

The main color of the shoulder feather on the right is golden, with a hint of red inside, as if coming from the center of a burning sea of ​​fire to the periphery, the bright golden red gradually turns red, and the end of the flight feather has a hint of black, like a flame Burnt ashes.

The gradient-colored wings are very beautiful, and between waving gently, the feathers look like rolling waves and jumping flames.

Slowly, the wind and water patterns on Su Qing's body began to move, and finally came to the back of the heart, where nine circular flame patterns appeared at some point.

The wind is on the top, the flames are on the left, and the water droplets are on the right. The three circles form an equilateral triangle pattern. In the middle of the triangle, there is a faint green light.

In the end, all the patterns were hidden in the skin, Su Qing suddenly opened his eyes, there seemed to be a vast ocean behind him, and a big fish whose shape could not be clearly seen was swimming in the sea.

The big fish disappeared, and a fire bird rushed out of the sea spinning with a sea of ​​flames, spreading its wings in the air.

Boo!

At this moment, the lightning in the night sky vividly depicts the ocean, and a group of flames rushing out of the sea. In the flames, there seems to be a firebird screaming.

Qi Jiang raised his head and looked at the firebird in the sky, his smile deepened, and when the coercion disappeared, he immediately flew back home with Shan Shan.

At this time the lightning disappeared, and a white light ball flew into the room from the sky faster than Qi Jiang, and finally sank into Su Qing's eyebrows.

This time, the white light group did not bring obvious external changes to Su Qing, but he got a bloodline inheritance, and he also knew what bloodline he awakened.

It turned out that he didn't awaken multiple bloodlines, but bloodlines have multiple branching abilities, which need to be awakened one by one.

The door of the room opened with a bang, Qi Jiang walked in quickly, feeling Su Qing's breath was stable, and finally he was really relieved.

"Susu, congratulations."

Su Qing smiled, but quickly shook his head: "Brother Jiang, Fengwai Mountain gives me a very dangerous feeling. My intuition tells me that I can't get close to Fengwai Mountain. You have to awaken your bloodline ability quickly. Over there There are strong people like clouds, and the sense of oppression is too strong for me, maybe there are some powerful monsters that we don't know about, so let's forget about stealing the house."

Qi Jiang's expression changed slightly, and he nodded solemnly: "OK."

The two who dismissed the idea of ​​stealing the house did not know that they had misunderstood. The danger was not the monsters living in Fengwai Mountain, but Fengwai Mountain itself.
