Katu
Chapter 92 Encounter
Chen Mu was sitting on the shuttle bus and thinking. This part of the journey is undoubtedly the final danger, especially when getting off the bus. If you can get through this level, then you are not far from true safety.
It takes six hours to take a long shuttle train from Dongshang Acropolis to Ame City. The entire journey is underground without stopping in the middle.
Sitting on his seat, Chen Mu looked around carefully. He has ridden this long shuttle train many times and is no stranger to it.
Next to him sat a lady of about thirty. This lady was dressed simply, without too many decorations, and she seemed to be the kind of kind-hearted lady.
"Legend of the Master" was still playing in the carriage. After the staff of this long shuttle train discovered that it was well received, it has basically become a repertoire that must be played every time.
The lady next to me watched the video of "Legend of the Master" with great interest. It was obviously her first time watching it, so she was extremely immersed in it. Sometimes she covered her mouth and exclaimed, and sometimes she frowned and worried about the fate of the protagonist.
He glanced around covertly and found no suspicious person. Fortunately, everything was normal, which made Chen Mu feel a little relieved.
He closed his eyes. Today's series of emergencies gave him a strong sense of urgency, which also made him feel a little tired. He needs to rest. It is unknown what situation he will encounter if he stays for a while. Tiredness will slow down his reaction.
Suddenly, without warning, something seemed to be crawling under the skin! A creepy feeling spread all over Chen Mu's body, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
Holding back his accelerated heartbeat, Chen Mu glanced at the lady beside him. She was very engrossed in the sight and didn't even look at him.
Carefully rolling up his sleeves, Chen Mu's expression immediately changed!
A very thin light cyan thread was vaguely visible under his skin, and it was slowly squirming. The strange feeling that Chen Mu felt just now was caused by squirming it. This light cyan thin line is very thin, like a hair, and it is difficult to detect if you don't look carefully.
It's the green line! Chen Mu felt like he was struck by lightning, and his heart was surrounded by huge fear. He would never forget the scene of the devil woman pulling out the green thread from the corpse in the forest.
Chen Mu's eyes were a little dazed, and he didn't know if it was due to fear, but the squirming feeling of the green thread became clearer, which made his back covered with sweat.
Although Chen Mu guessed that the devil woman would definitely do something inside his body, he never expected that it turned out to be this evil thing! Compared with it, the chronic poisons I had guessed before were like harmless snacks. He didn't know what the green line was. But Chen Mu had witnessed its terrifying power.
It's squirming! What will it do next? Drill into your own veins? Or pierce your own heart?
Although his psychological endurance was much greater than before, this time he still felt deep fear and despair.
Chen Mu had the urge to cut open his skin and pull out the green thread. However, he quickly gave up this idea and wanted to study it carefully after he was safe.
The slowly squirming thread seemed to accidentally touch Chen Mu's pain nerve. He felt a bone-deep pain coming from under his skin, and he couldn't help but groan.
This muffled groan also woke up the lady who was watching Ka Ying on the side. She quickly came over and asked with concern: "This classmate, are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?" Chen Mu's age can easily make people think that he is a student.
pain! Chen Mu's mind was buzzing, and everything in the outside world seemed to be far away from him. He didn't hear the words of the lady beside him, and the severe pain all over his body made him completely lose the ability to react at this moment.
It’s severe pain all over the body! Not just his arms, this light green hair-thin thread was dozens of meters long, enough to cover his entire body.
The severe pain made Chen Mu's body curl up involuntarily.
"Classmate, what's wrong with you?" The lady beside Chen Mu was obviously frightened by his painful appearance.
The boy next to him didn't make any sound, but his curled-up body was shaking violently. She knew that this would only happen if it was extremely painful.
She suddenly became anxious. There are no doctors on the long shuttle trains. There will only be doctors in Ami City. But there are still two hours before arriving at Ami City. Judging from the appearance of this young man, he could be in danger at any time.
The kind lady leaned down and gently patted the already hunched-up Chen Mu on the back, hoping this would make him feel better.
Soon, she realized that her method seemed to be effective, and the boy's trembling eased little by little. This made her very happy, and she kept patting Chen Mu's back with her left hand.
Finally, half a minute later, the boy gradually calmed down.
Chen Mu's distracted eyes began to focus little by little, and the feeling of his body, the sound of the shuttle bus, and the voices of people talking around him also became clearer little by little. My sweat-soaked clothes clung to my body, making me uncomfortable.
If he hadn't been sweating so much to remind him, Chen Mu would have doubted whether it was just a dream he had after falling asleep. Because the pain comes as violently as the tide, and goes away like the wind, disappearing immediately.
The kindness and concern conveyed by the gentle pat on the back made Chen Mu feel warm. He slowly straightened up and sincerely thanked the lady beside him: "Thank you!"
"Are you feeling better? What happened just now? You scared me." Madam asked with concern. She was indeed scared by Chen Mu's painful look just now.
Chen Mu could only vaguely say: "It's nothing, just some old problems." He hadn't figured it out yet, and how could such a thing be explained clearly?
"Ah!" Madam was shocked, and then looked at Chen Mu sympathetically: "Does it happen often? How painful this must be!" She paused for a moment, and then said: "I know several famous doctors... "
Chen Mu glanced at his wife gratefully, but still interrupted her: "It's okay, it's really just a minor problem." His situation was special. If he went to the doctor like this, he didn't know what trouble he would cause. The mysterious green line would make those doctors very curious, and for him now, too much attention would be fatal.
Moreover, Chen Mu also believed that it would be difficult for ordinary doctors to successfully treat the devil woman using her methods.
Seeing Chen Mu's insistence, the lady changed the subject.
Chen Mu was full of gratitude to this kind lady. He could feel her concern for him, which was something he hadn't experienced in a long time.
Ever since the pursuit of the Zuo family began, Chen Mu had become increasingly gloomy, and this became even more obvious after meeting the devil woman. In addition, he is always in danger, his nerves are always tense, and he always carefully keeps a distance from the people around him, which also makes his character much colder than before.
If life some time ago was like being in a dark abyss, then this lady's concern was like a ray of sunshine shining into the abyss, making Chen Mu feel very warm. In Chen Mu's eyes, Madam is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman in the world.
Chen Mu suddenly saw something familiar hanging around his wife's neck. He couldn't help but ask, "Madam, can you show me what you are wearing?"
"Is this what you are talking about?" The lady held a card hanging on her chest with her fingers. When Chen Mu nodded, she took it off and handed it to Chen Mu. She said with a smile, "This is what my father left for me." My relic was just repaired some time ago, so I took it with me."
Chen Mu suddenly realized after taking it, no wonder it looked familiar to him. It turned out to be the three-star energy shield magic card that he had repaired before. The structure contained in it benefited Chen Mu a lot.
I remembered that the shopkeeper once said that the owner of the card was Mrs. Ning. Could it be that the person in front of me was Mrs. Ning?
Chen Mu asked carefully: "Are you Mrs. Ning?"
The lady was stunned and looked at Chen Mu strangely: "Do you know me?"
Chen Mu smiled slightly, but the muscles on his face were a little stiff. His smile was uglier than crying: "I repaired this card, and the shop owner once conveyed your invitation to me. I didn't expect you to be Mrs. Ning, really. Discourteous."
Mrs. Ning lightly covered her red lips in surprise: "Ah! Are you the intermediate card maker? Oh my god, you are already an intermediate card maker at such a young age! It's so surprising!"
For some reason, Chen Mu felt very relaxed when talking to Mrs. Ning, without the fear and caution he had at school. He shook his head: "I'm not an intermediate card maker, I'm just a student at Dongwei Academy."
"But, isn't it only an intermediate card maker who can repair the three-star magic card?" Mrs. Ning's expression was a little confused, but she soon broke out into a smile: "But no matter what, thank you for repairing my father's relics. It's really great." grateful."
"You're too polite. This is what I should do." Chen Mu responded quickly. I don't know if it was because of being far away from Dongshang Weicheng, but Chen Mu felt very relaxed, and he could even speak these kind words much more fluently than before.
After learning that Chen Mu was the person who had restored her father's card, Mrs. Ning was very happy. She said enthusiastically: "I have always wanted to have a meal with you to thank you, but the shop owner said that you have been busy. Since we met today, we must go to the humble house to sit for a while. I can't refuse today."
After speaking, she looked at Chen Mu expectantly.
Chen Mu thought to himself that he was in trouble, so he shouldn't involve this rare kind lady. He only said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it's not convenient today, I have some important things to attend to. If I have time next time, I will definitely go and visit."
Chen Mu knew that what he said about his next visit was just a lie. After getting off the shuttle, after passing this last difficulty, he would leave Ami City as quickly as possible. After all, this place is too close to Dongshang Acropolis, and it is not safe here.
Mrs. Ning also heard the shirk in Chen Mu's words. She was even more keenly aware of the worry in his eyes. Knowing that he was indeed in trouble, she could only say in disappointment: "That's such a pity. But you must come next time." ah."
The two chatted for a while, and before they knew it, the long shuttle train had already entered the underground platform of Ami City.
