Barrier of Light

After reading all the memories, Gu Shen raised his palm.

The boy huddled in the corner fell into a coma.

Gu Shen fell into thinking.

so……

That girl is the target guided by the "Iron Box"?

He looked around and snapped his fingers.

"laugh--"

The blazing fire quickly swept through the alley, soothing the memories of several people... The purpose of Gu Shen's visit to "E0 Area" this time was to safely take away the "son of the gods". Now that the clues have been found, it is important to keep everything as it is. good.

Gu Shen left here.

On the map of Area E0, the abandoned "garbage dump" was indeed a blind spot... Zhuang Su probably wouldn't have thought that the legendary Son of God would often appear in that kind of place.

If there really is a super-awakened person who perfectly matches the "fire", even under the oppressive environment of the extreme people, his life will not be too miserable.

He shuttled through the alleys and walked quickly towards the back of Area E0.

…

…

Dusk fell.

At the end of the backstreet in Area E0, on the garbage mountain that smelled of filth, there were three figures, silently "picking up"...

It’s still the same three people as yesterday.

There is one less person today.

But judging from their appearance, they didn't care about this kind of thing at all... If one person is missing, then the territory will be divided into three parts. The three of them re-divided it with a tacit understanding and drew new boundaries, and they drew them very clearly. Evenly.

Because of what happened yesterday, the atmosphere on the garbage mountain now became very solemn and depressing.

The tall boy and the one who got kicked were vaguely closer to the opposite side. From time to time, they looked at the girl opposite who was silently picking up rags. Their eyes were full of "trepidation".

This is a bit "ridiculous".

Yesterday, it was clear that they were the ones who beat people, and they were the ones who won.

But I don’t know why.

Thinking back to the way the girl stared at them last night, the two of them always felt a little "hairy" in their hearts.

The girl rummaged through the garbage pile carelessly...

She didn't even look at the two people opposite her. She didn't seem to be worried at all about yesterday's scene reappearing and being beaten again...

The more this happens, the more depressed the two people opposite them feel.

However... this deadly stalemate did not last long.

After it gets completely dark.

Another "tramp" came outside the garbage mountain, and he was an adult tramp.

The homeless man found a place to sit down, holding a fresh apple in his hand... just chewing it, while watching the three boys and girls on the garbage mountain picking up garbage.

The deadlock was thus broken.

A "stronger" outsider has appeared!

"Ding-deng-deng!"

As soon as the adult wanderer sat down, the two teenagers looked at each other and ran away in advance. In an instant, they couldn't even see their shadows... They didn't want to have their things confiscated after picking up, and then get beaten severely.

This kind of thing happens frequently in Sangzhou Cave.

"..."

However, the girl who was still on the garbage mountain ignored this and only glanced back slightly, continuing to pick up her dinner calmly.

Gu Shen gnawed on the apple and observed the girl.

This time, the iron box did not send out "mental tremors"...

But he was sure.

This is the most likely "target person" after searching in Area E0.

The girl on the garbage mountain looked very "relaxed" and didn't seem to care.

But in fact, she was tense and always alert to the movement behind her.

If Gu Shen stood up suddenly, she would respond immediately. The reason why she didn't just leave like the previous two teenagers was probably because she hadn't picked up anything yet and was unwilling to leave just like that.

"Hello……"

After Gu Shen took a hard bite of the apple, he finally spoke.

There are only two people in this whole mountain of garbage.

Of course the girl knew that this voice was speaking to her.

If you stay here, you will inevitably have to deal with them.

The moment she heard the voice, the girl's small body suddenly became tense, and she stopped acting. The girl bent over, looked back slightly, and narrowed her eyes. Although she did not speak, this posture was already considered acting. responded.

Gu Shen said calmly: "Would you like to eat an apple?"

"?"

The girl made a slight doubtful sound in her throat. In this world...are there such kind-hearted people?

She subconsciously licked her dry and cracked lips. She wanted to pretend to be firm, but the gurgling sound from her abdomen was clearly audible. Seeing Gu Shen nibbling a bunch of apples in his hand, the little one took a deep breath and stood up. He stood up, nervous and defensive, and stretched out his hand, indicating that Gu Shen could throw the remaining ones over.

Gu Shen looked at the apple in his hand and couldn't help but smile.

He took out a brand new one from his arms... wiped it with his clothes, and then threw it away.

The girl reached out and caught it.

Her face was dirty, with a layer of mud, but it wasn't ugly at all. Her facial features were very beautiful. She frowned and didn't directly bite it. Instead, she hesitated, looking at the apple and then at Gu Shen.

"..."

Gu Shen realized why the girl didn't dare to speak. She didn't dare to accept gifts from strangers casually.

After a second of silence, he took out the third apple from his arms, repeated the previous steps, but took a bite in front of the girl, and then threw it away.

Seeing this, the girl's eyes instantly shone. She quickly took the piece of apple that had been bitten into, sat down and ate happily, not disliking the stench emanating from the garbage mountain.

She bit hard and quickly, fearing that Gu Shen would regret it.

While eating, he looked at the sloppy man in front of him with incredulous eyes.

In the E0 area, fruit is a strictly controlled "food"... Even those in control of the church have little chance to eat it. This guy looks in tatters. How can he have three apples, and how can he give himself two?

She knew it.

There is no free pie in the world... But no matter what, now the pie falls in front of her, fresh and clean food, if you don't eat it, it will be free, eat it first to fill your stomach!

"Don't worry, I won't compete with you..."

Gu Shen watched this scene and couldn't help but laugh. He waited patiently for the girl to finish the apple and asked, "Little guy, what's your name?"

The girl looked at Gu Shen warily, her brows furrowed.

Are you giving me food just to ask your name?

"...Xiao Man."

Gu Shen could tell that this child still didn't trust him and was still resisting him. He could have used "Blazing Fire" to directly change everything, but he didn't do so...

He read the memory of the boy in the alley, the girl who wandered around the garbage mountain for many days.

Even if he is not a son of God.

This child's temperament, perseverance, and agility are all excellent.

"Xiao Man, that's a good name. What's your last name?"

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows. When he came to the garbage mountain, he stretched out his hand to wipe away his "ghost face" and was ready to meet the "son of the gods" with his real facial features. However, just to "fit in with the group", he had a full face. It was all covered in mud and looked like one of the many homeless people here.

The name of this little guy is obviously the name of "Dongzhou".

Six hundred years ago, humans arrived in their new homeland and divided into five continents... each of which underwent a certain degree of cultural evolution. The names of Central and Southern Continents generally did not look like this.

"Last name...I don't have a last name."

The girl's voice was calm and she asked cautiously: "Who are you and why are you giving me alms?"

Gu Shen noticed that the girl only gnawed one apple, which was still incomplete. The remaining one was intact... After she wiped it carefully, she carefully stuffed it into her pocket.

Do you just want to take it away and save it for another meal, or do you also want to take care of others?

"This is not charity, this should be regarded as... sharing."

Gu Shen smiled and did not answer the previous question. He said warmly: "I'm looking for someone. It should be someone who is very similar to you."

The girl's expression immediately became tense. The extraordinary beings from the Tower of Source had been looking for people in Mancheng in the past few days... but once they were taken away, they never came back.

She just wanted to get up and run away.

The man opposite seemed to be able to read minds, and Youyou said, "You don't have to run, because I'm not from the Tower of Source."

The girl was stunned.

"If you feel uneasy about getting something for free, just treat it as a 'transaction'." Gu Shen said softly: "I will give you two apples, and you answer my two questions..."

After saying this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief. She was much precocious compared to her peers.

"go ahead."

The girl spoke subconsciously, then covered the apple in her pocket and quickly added: "If you can't answer it, it won't be returned."

"How old are you?"

Gu Shen looked at the girl.

His spirit has enveloped it.

This little girl's spiritual power was as ethereal as clouds and mist, sometimes lingering and sometimes dissipating. This was the first time I encountered this kind of thing in Sangzhou Cave... I couldn't see through the talent of this "awakened one" at a glance. ?

The girl was silent for two seconds.

"Five years old, six years old...I can't remember clearly."

Hearing this, Gu Shen thought thoughtfully and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Five years old, six years old... This seems to be different from the "awakening time" in Mr. Zhuang's diary... If there really is a "son of God", then it should be within three years old, right?

Seeing the disappointed look on the man's face, the girl couldn't help but ask: "Does this question make sense?"

In Sangzhou Cave, age is meaningless... at least for wanderers, if you don't respect the old and care for the young, the garbage mountain will not give in to you because you are young, nor will it give in to you because you are old.

The most important thing is whether the fist is soft or hard, and the height is high or low.

Xiaoman looked at Gu Shen.

She couldn't understand what Gu Shen's question to her...what was her last name, how old she was, what was the meaning of such questions?

"You're right... for you, this is indeed a meaningless question."

Gu Shen smiled without being angry and said, "Second question, you still 'raise' someone, and he is younger than you, right?"

As soon as this statement came out.

The little girl's pupils shrank instantly. She stood up and stared at Gu Shen gloomily.

Gu Shen smiled and said, "It seems right."

Even if there is no subsequent reaction, this is actually not difficult to guess.

For young children, even if they have developed a hundred sharp minds by crawling around in the mud, even if they think they have done it very thoughtfully and meticulously, there are still many flaws, and a discerning person will still be able to figure it out in one go. Can see through.

This little girl didn't hesitate at all when she nibbled on the broken apple...but she carefully wiped the remaining one before putting it in her arms.

This apple was not left for her to eat.

Then, the only possibility left is "there is one more".

next moment.

Little Mansa Yazi ran away... As she ran, she didn't forget to look back behind her.

"..."

The homeless man who looked good was sitting in front of the garbage mountain, watching her leave with a calm expression. Seeing that this guy had no intention of getting up and chasing her, she felt a little more relaxed. After confirming that she was not being chased, Only then did he dive into the complicated alleys. This was a long-abandoned neighborhood with few people living in it. The terrain was complex, so it could be called "very safe."

To prevent being tracked.

Xiaoman took more than a dozen detours and turned back from time to time.

Finally she was sure...no one was chasing her.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the dark alley at this moment, for some reason, she felt a little empty in her heart... That guy didn't look like a bad guy. Was she a little too nervous?

Take a deep breath.

Xiaoman squeezed the apple in her pocket, took two deep breaths, and threw all the trivial thoughts behind her mind. No matter what, I picked up fresh and clean fruit today...

She couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and walked towards the end of the alley.

However, after the last turn, the smile on her face suddenly froze...

At the end of the alley, a gloom enveloped the place.

She saw a tall and towering figure standing at the end of the alley, with his back to her. The tall figure stretched out a hand, held the ankle of the baby in ragged swaddling clothes, and shook off the wrapping.

These days.

The newly arrived Extraordinary One from the Tower of Source was searching for "geniuses" from door to door throughout the city. She recognized the clothes worn by the tall figure... that was the law enforcement robe of the Extraordinary Person from the Tower of Source.

She didn't expect that the extraordinary Tower of Source could really find this place!

At the end of this dilapidated alley, there is nothing but a makeshift shack...

The baby who was picked up did not cry or fuss, but just looked at the man quietly.

"drop."

"drop."

"drop."

The man took out a small instrument and conducted a simple test on the baby... Although the baby's response to neither crying nor fussing was unusual for ordinary people, the test results were disappointing.

"What the hell, you haven't even awakened to the extraordinary..."

The man frowned, murmured softly, and said: "What the hell is [Deep Sea] doing? Isn't it talking about a 99.9% link rate..."

He glanced back at the girl.

"drop."

"drop."

The instrument was retested, and the surrounding source matter suddenly surged. The third-level law enforcer of the Tower of Source narrowed his eyes and looked thoughtfully at the girl who came in front of him... The highest level of this extraordinary measuring instrument is "A" ", and at this moment the pointer has reached the highest point, and it means to continue to exceed the limit.

next moment--

"Bang" sound!

The instrument exploded with a small burst of light. The law enforcer was stunned for a second, and quickly threw the baby aside in the foam of the cardboard box. The baby still neither cried nor fussed, like a machine without soul and emotion... From the location, you can see the complete scene of the alley.

Xiaoman gritted her teeth and wanted to escape, but her legs seemed to be frozen, as if they were poured with cement.

She had never encountered anything like this.

After confirming that he had met an unprecedented "genius girl", the Law Enforcer of the Tower of Source directly deployed his mental power and locked the target in place.

He walked over quickly, stretched out his big hand, and grabbed the girl who was standing at the entrance of the alley.

The moment when Xiao Man was extremely desperate.

A hand stretched out from Xiaoman's head and pressed on the enforcer's face.

Gu Shen held down the third-level law enforcer's head with five fingers.

He said softly: "I forgot to tell you earlier, Xiaoman, my surname is Gu and my name is Gu Shen."
