Chapter 1238: Thunder and lightning
Chapter 1238 Lightning and Thunder
Wei Shaoyin looked at her outfit and nodded with satisfaction: "Let's go."
She watched him swaggering out, leaving the family area and passing through the peripheral work area. With Wei Shaoyin's identity card, the two of them had an unimpeded journey. The van elevator from where it came from slowly rose up and returned to the ground. Standing in the corridor of the old building, Xia Yingluo had the illusion of being in another world.
The artificial landscape underground is sunny and bright, but in the real world it is already late at night, with strong winds and heavy rain.
Thunder and lightning exploded one after another.
Wei Shaoyin looked out at the corridor and frowned: "The weather is bad, so make do with it."
Xia Yingluo showed a relaxed smile: "This is the best weather, suitable for escaping."
As soon as he finished speaking, a piercing siren suddenly sounded in the building.
Wei Shaoyin said: "Oh no, we might have been discovered." He also blamed her, "What kind of escape? I don't know what to say nicely, crow's mouth!"
Xia Yingluo also wanted to beat herself to death, "Hurry up, hurry up."
The two of them ran along the corridor, and when they reached the glass revolving door at the exit, Wei Shaoyin swiped his card, but couldn't open it. His face looked a little ugly: "The permissions have been frozen, and the alarm is really coming to us."
Xia Yingluo's face didn't look good either. She looked around, took out a fire extinguisher in the hall, and threw it at the glass door with all her strength. The piercing sirens kept ringing, and an electronic synthesized voice that did not match the old feel of the building came: "Target found, at the main entrance of the main building. Target found, at the main entrance of the main building..."
The sound of footsteps sounded in the distance, and it seemed that many people were rushing towards this direction.
Wei Shaoyin jumped up and down anxiously: "Hurry up! They are going to catch up!"
Xia Yingluo gritted her teeth: "I want to hurry up too! This broken glass in your house is so strong!"
"My family uses the most cutting-edge high-tech materials, don't you know?" Wei Shaoyin screamed, "If my uncle catches me, he will cut me into pieces for research! Ahhh! They are coming over here It’s too late! Stop it, stop it! Let’s run in another direction—!
Xia Yingluo didn't care to quarrel with him and used all her strength to smash the glass door. She remembered that when she had a fight with someone in the Emperor's training camp some time ago, she broke the person's bones with just a slight push. Maybe this time there would be a miracle. It might happen, after all, her strength has increased strangely recently.
The glass made a huge reverberation and was shaking under her fierce attack. Xia Yingluo prayed randomly while smashing it: Whether it is the gods and demons in the sky, or the chaotic will of the planet, no matter what it is, if it really exists, it must Hope she can run out of here smoothly, she doesn't want to become an alien!
Perhaps, the will of the planet really heard her prayer. With a crash, the high-strength explosion-proof glass shattered. Xia Yingluo didn't have time to cheer, so she dropped the fire extinguisher and got out with Wei Shaoyin. Outside the building, heavy rain poured down, a bolt of lightning struck down, and there was a boom.
“Xia Yingluo!” Someone shouted angrily from behind.
She turned around and saw a figure walking through the deep corridor of the ancient building at an incredible speed. It was Wei Lingnan. The man had a slender frame, and his figure looked a little distorted in the dim light. A pair of light, smooth, mirror-like eyes stared at her through the storm, as if he wanted to stare a hole into her.
Xia Yingluo shuddered.
“Let’s go!” Wei Shaoyin shouted beside her.
Xia Yingluo came to her senses and ran into the storm.
The big raindrops hit me crazily, covering my head and face. She kicked deep and shallow, not knowing where she was stepping. Her whole body was soaked and numb from the cold.
Hurry up, hurry up... There was only this one thought left in her mind. She didn't dare to look back and see if the man had caught up. The pouring rain blurred her vision. In front of her eyes was the endless black night, with the occasional flash of lightning. It has passed away, rendering everything around it like a ghost. She ran mechanically, not knowing how far she ran.
Suddenly, a thunder exploded in her ears, and the bright lightning struck down like a sharp blade, blinding her for a moment. Her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously turned around. In the darkness, there was only the sound of wind and rain, and the old building seemed to stand in a very far away place, like a swaying lighthouse on the stormy sea.
She slowed down unknowingly.
“Why don’t you run quickly?!” Wei Shaoyin’s sharp voice came from beside him, “Hurry!”
She stopped and said, "I want to go back and take a look."
"Are you crazy?" Wei Shaoyin didn't care about her mysophobia and stretched out her hand to pull her, "Do you know how scary Wei Lingnan is? He can catch up with him in an instant from a few hundred meters away!"
Xia Yingluo shook her head and walked back.
She could clearly hear the thunder just now. It was too close. Will something happen to him? Unexpectedly, she remembered his remarks about the will of the planet. If the will of the planet really existed and helped her break open the glass door of the building with a fire extinguisher, would there be thunder and lightning in order to prevent Wei Lingnan from tracking her? Hack him?
Although she knew her idea was ridiculous, she couldn't help but think about it.
Where are there any aliens in this world?
Are aliens afraid of being struck by lightning?
Her thoughts were confused, but her legs turned back step by step uncontrollably.
The sound of violent wind and rain rang loudly in her ears. Wei Shaoyin's hand was clasped on her arm, but he could not pull her to continue running away. She thought he was dragging her down, so she threw his arm away impatiently and sped up.
The lights are still on in front of the old building, the wind is howling, and the rain is pouring.
She searched eagerly and soon saw him under the weak street light in front of the door. He fell face down in a puddle. His clothes were scorched black by lightning. He was motionless and did not know whether he was dead. It's alive.
That lightning bolt really hit him just now.
Xia Yingluo's heart clenched. She didn't understand why she felt like this. Every night when she was violated and imprisoned by him, she wished for him to die countless times, and even wanted to kill him before she was willing to do so. However, , when he really fell in front of her with uncertainty about his life or death, she didn't even dare to step forward, afraid of facing the unbearable consequences.
Taking a deep breath, she put her trembling hands on his body.
His body was radiating high heat and felt burning to the touch. She hissed in pain and retracted her hand reflexively. In the storm, under the dim light of the street lights, she saw that her hands were burned to the point of bleeding, and white smoke was coming out of her palms.
Her heart kept sinking.
Wei Lingnan's body was not as hot as a normal human being. Could it be that he was struck from the inside out by lightning? There is no way humans can survive such an attack.
