Survival [End Times]

That feeling didn't last long. When it stopped abruptly, Yu Heng opened his eyes and saw black air rolling up the limbs of the beast, and then gradually spreading. After just a dozen seconds, the golden light in the air dimmed, and finally the shadow disappeared.

A sense of uneasiness surged in his heart. He leaned on the windowsill and continued to look out without giving up. After waiting for half an hour, there was still no trace.

In the next room, Zhou's mother was sleeping soundly, and other areas were also quiet. Firecrackers were banned during the New Year this year, and the city was very quiet after midnight.

Even Kyoto, where the shadow of the beast appeared, was no exception. Except for a cultivator in a courtyard who was busy drawing talismans and felt that the talismans were assisted by God, he happily sped up his writing, and then sighed that the inspiration was too short, no one else saw the shadow in the air.

"It seems like a dream." Yu Heng murmured, but the newly added golden air in his body reminded him that it was not a dream.

He did not sleep that night. After verification, he was sure that those golden dots were gifts from the country's destiny. His cultivation speed was much faster, and the confusion that was blocked before was suddenly cleared up.

The results of his cultivation made him happy, because on the first day of the new year, he finally drew the Tianlei Talisman. Although it was a rough product with a not very objective effect, it also made him feel very accomplished. After drawing the first one, the next one was not far away.

After that, his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, and good news seemed to come in pairs. Before the end of the first month of the year, he received an email notifying him that he had passed the interview. Two days later, he also received a paper version of the formal admission notice, allowing him to officially enroll in school a week later.

This school could not allow him to apply for home-based self-study and remote classes like other schools. He did not want to stay at home. He had to enter the school and graduate as soon as possible to make connections to achieve his goals.

Knowing that her son was admitted to such a good university, Zhou's mother cried with joy, "Good! Your dad will be happy to know that you are going to school, he will be happy..."

"Mom, I left enough talisman paper at home. If it is not enough, you can call me. It will be inconvenient to contact at school. But I have consulted. There will be a fixed time every week for students to contact outside. I will notify you when it is confirmed." Seeing Zhou's mother nodding with tears, he said again: "Don't give up on cultivation. It will definitely work."

In terms of cultivation, Zhou's mother and Zheng Huifen could not get started. Zheng Huifen had completely given up. She had a career to do and was full of energy. So he let Zhou's mother continue to practice. When she felt she missed him, she could practice to distract herself.

"Okay, okay, mom will listen to you."

In the next half month, he temporarily put aside cultivation and concentrated on drawing talismans. In fact, drawing talismans is also a practice, which is indispensable to meditation.

After leaving enough talisman paper and explaining it to Zheng Huifen, he went to school with his luggage. He didn't need Zhou's mother to send him, and he took the bus to school alone.

The school is not far away, and it only takes two hours to get there by high-speed rail. There are not many people on the high-speed rail. Sitting opposite him is a couple. The wife is wearing heavy makeup. They whisper to each other and occasionally look at him.

Yu Heng closed his eyes and rested until he got off the train. The couple opposite called him and said, "This is the business card of our hospital. If you need it, you can call us for consultation." He took it and saw that it was a business card of a cosmetic surgery hospital. "Okay, thank you."

"Welcome to consult. If this face of yours is repaired, you will definitely be more handsome." He accepted the other party's good words and nodded to say goodbye.

I forgot to say that plastic surgery has also been quite popular in the past two years. The stench named Licheng poison gas is very annoying. The blisters and bumps are too itchy! It will not kill people in the early stage. If it is not properly controlled and treated, it will continue to have a high fever and inflammation, and finally die of rot and pus all over the body. If you can't help scratching, the deterioration will be faster.

What's more terrifying is that even if you don't scratch and endure until the condition is under control within a safe range, the blisters and bumps on your body will not completely disappear. Your skin will have tiny pits one after another, which cannot be seen from a distance or with makeup. If you look at it directly up close, it can make people with trypophobia break out in cold sweats, which shows how disgusting it is.

Those who don't scratch are still like this, not to mention those who can't help scratching. That layer of skin is almost ruined, uneven, and makeup doesn't work well.

This has given rise to the reverse prosperity of the cosmetic appearance industry. In today's generally depressed economy, the cosmetic surgery industry has made a lot of money, and cosmetic surgery is no longer a rare thing. Walking on the street, eight out of ten people have had plastic surgery.

Yu Heng's body, including her face, is full of tiny pits, which are really creepy to touch. Zhou's mother is also the same. Zheng Huifen and her daughter don't have this problem. However, neither mother and son went for plastic surgery. Zhou's mother is purely to save money, and Yu Heng is too lazy to go.

However, after two years, the scars on both of them showed signs of fading. He thought it was the effect of the gene modification fluid, which gave them better repair ability. Now, there are only relatively faint marks, which cannot be seen from a distance.

He threw the business card into the trash can at the station, strode out of the station, took a taxi to the school, and spent 20 minutes to process admission, find the dormitory, pick up school uniforms, etc., and a day passed. At night, he lay on the bed and read the future courses. After he had a plan in mind, he pulled the quilt and fell asleep immediately.

The days of militarized classes in school were not difficult for Yu Heng. Many students complained about running exercises every morning, but he adapted well. Time flies, and the semester passes quickly. Because of his excellent performance, he got an internship recommended by his tutor.

After returning home to briefly reunite with his family for three days, he returned to school again and was uniformly sent by the school to a military base to help other doctors, experts and professors treat sick soldiers.

In the past two years, our soldiers have made a lot of efforts in the prevention and control of poison gas, and more people have been injured and sick. They need and deserve the best treatment and treatment. Yu Heng also discovered that almost every soldier had undergone surgery with an internal device. The main job of these intern students was to perform physical examinations on the soldiers, including checking whether the body had a rejection reaction to the device, whether the device was functioning normally, and conducting medical tests on the soldiers. Daily routine physical examination.

The work is not difficult, but it is tedious. There are many soldiers, so you have to be fast and make no mistakes.

Yu Heng liked this job very much. It gave him the opportunity to collect data from the device. At present, this device is not perfect enough and has a high scrap rate (this is caused by the working environment of soldiers). Some of them look familiar. The soldier had surgery every now and then to replace his device with a new one, and it hurt even to look at him.

Moreover, this device can actually be made into an accessory. Why does it have to be installed in the body through surgery?

He reported this problem to his mentor, and the mentor whispered: "This is not something we can interfere with." He understood that there was something involved.

At the end of August, more than half a year after the device was launched, the authorities announced the launch of an improved version of the device. People no longer need to go through surgery to get protection. The new device can be carried around, is flexible and convenient, and is more convenient and practical to repair.

"Mr. Lu Mingtao is a new researcher at the xx Academy of Sciences. He was deeply worried after seeing the shortcomings of traditional devices. He believed that the built-in devices were not practical and would cause discomfort to the human body, especially for soldiers fighting on the front lines to remove poisonous gases. In order to solve this problem, Mr. Lu Mingtao was deeply troubled by the inconvenience of replacing the built-in device. After half a year of hard research..."

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, Lu Mingtao looked polite and talked to the camera: "The new device can be divided into five sub-devices, which can be carried on the neck, hands and feet respectively, forming an intertwined protection on the skin surface. Electrical layer, compared to the old device which uses the human body structure to conduct current and the user will feel slightly uncomfortable, the new device does not have this problem at all... This is a completely outer protective electrical layer..."

"Mr. Lu is very talented and has made outstanding contributions in improving poison gas detectors before, but he is very low-key..."

Yu Heng looked at the young man on the screen coldly. He was said to be thirty-five years old, but he looked like he was in his early twenties, young and energetic.

"No, the honor of being a father belongs to the father. I hope that when everyone hears his name, they will say: That is a scientist, instead of saying, Oh, that is Mr. Lu Mingsheng's son. The former is the affirmation of me. …”

The instructor came over and said, "You are also watching this. Mr. Lu finally got his wish and paved the way. We can also evacuate. Hengxing, your internship proves that I have already done it for you. Come with me." Take it."

"Okay." Yu Heng followed his instructor to the office. School will start in a week and they will leave the military base together.

After helping his tutor move his things back to the dormitory, he sat on a simple chair in the office and asked his tutor, who had always valued him, a question: "Have you always known this?"

What do you know? Instructor Cheng Guili chuckled: "You are too young and outstanding, but I like your intuition and sense of smell. If you ask me if I know, I can only say that even you can see the cumbersomeness of the operation, and others can also see it. Come out." He also moved a chair and sat down, looked at Yu Heng and said with a smile, "It's just that no one dares to say anything, let alone us so-called doctors and professors."

Top experts and professors keep silent, and any comments made by other doctors will only be labeled as poor academic skills.

"Do you know why I chose you as my student? Because you have a very upright look, do more and talk less. At my age, I can't bring in a student who is too lively. Stellar, your qualifications are what I have been teaching for so many years. The best I've ever seen, learn from it! The situation is unclear now, and you have to protect yourself even more." Cheng Guili's words can be regarded as sincere, and he reminded Yu Heng not to offend others, just be aware of it. , don’t pay too much attention to those things.

Yu Heng also laughed: "Then do you know why I chose you as my teacher?" Cheng Guili was really stunned. After a while, he patted his thigh and said, "Hey, kid!"

"Now, can you help me introduce him to Mr. Lu Jun? I remember that my senior brother is one of Mr. Lu's exclusive doctors."
