Chapter 351 The Little Rose of the Dark Captain (39)
When Zhang Yan was walking with his brother to the door of their home, they saw a man on the side of the road and Zhang Yan's eyes lit up.
"Brother Li!"
"Big brother!" Little Stone jumped and danced happily.
Bai Chao nodded slightly.
"Brother Li, you finally came to see me."
Zhang Yan sent Xiao Shitou home and stood outside chatting with Bai Chao.
"I've thought about it. I think I can try that potion." There was a hint of excitement in Zhang Yan's tone.
Bai Chao looked at him: "Have you really thought about it?"
"Really, Brother Li, by the way, I have a few friends who also meet the conditions you mentioned before, that is..."
“They don’t quite believe it…”
If Zhang Yan had not seen the puppy come back to life with his own eyes, he would not have believed that there was such a magical thing in the world.
Bai Chao's eyebrows moved slightly: "Have you told your friends?"
"Yes, Brother Li, didn't you also ask me to look for a suitable person? If the conditions are met, you should be able to tell me, right?"
"Well, how many people are there?"
Zhang Yan paused for a moment and said a little embarrassedly: "Um... it's a bit too much..."
Zhang Yan has a good personality and made many friends in the shelter.
He felt that the external physical conditions that Bai Chao mentioned were not very difficult, and many of his friends met the requirements. He also hoped that his friends could also obtain superpowers, so he told his friends about it.
But they thought he was joking and no one was willing to believe him.
Zhang Yan's face was full of anticipation: "Brother Li, can you let them see how magical this potion is? They will definitely believe it if they see it!"
"..."
Bai Chao raised his head and looked at the moon hanging in the night sky.
"can."
The next morning.
Bai Chao pushed Xiao Xuxing who was lying on the bed.
Xiao Xuxing slowly woke up from his sleep: "...Qingzhi?"
"You haven't asked the people in the laboratory yet."
"Hmm?" Xiao Xuxing's voice was still a little hoarse from not waking up yet. He narrowed his eyes slightly, "What's wrong, baby?"
"..."
Bai Chao said coldly: "I'm going to the lab to find the collar."
Only then did Xiao Xuxing notice that Bai Chao, who was standing beside the bed, was already fully dressed.
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
Just as Xiao Xuxing was about to turn over and get out of bed, his body fell heavily back onto the bed.
"..."
Xiao Xuxing sighed helplessly, feeling intermittently weak again.
It seems that I can't accompany this person. I can't just fall down halfway while walking.
Xiao Xuxing raised his head and tried to negotiate: "Baby, why don't you wait for me for a while? Or go in the afternoon?"
Bai Chao decisively refused: "No."
"Then...baby, you go first, I'll be here in a bit, okay?"
"..."
Bai Chao glanced at him, turned around and left.
Xiao Xuxing shook his head with a smile.
It really won’t work without super powers.
But fortunately, this state only lasted for one day.
laboratory.
"Where did you hide my collar?"
Bai Chao went straight to the door and blocked Zong Hui's way out.
Zong Hui had been warned in advance, so he played dumb and said, "Ahem, what? You lost your collar?"
Bai Chao looked at him coldly without saying a word.
Seeing that the situation was getting stalemate, Zong Hui stepped aside and said, "If you think you lost it here, then look for it yourself, but we really don't have your collar here."
"..."
Bai Chao walked into the laboratory and went straight to the room where he had been knocked unconscious before.
Zong Hui followed Bai Chao all the way, wondering in his heart, is this Saint Son so good at memory? How can he remember the route so clearly...
Bai Chao found the room and went straight in to search it.
But the room had been cleaned and nothing was left.
Zong Hui stood at the door and pretended: "There really is no collar for you here, how about we look somewhere else?"
The collar had been disposed of long ago, and Bai Chao couldn't find it no matter how hard he looked.
"..."
Bai Chao walked out the door and went in another direction.
That is the researcher's office.
But because the office was cleared early, there was no one in the office today.
Zong Hui was watching Bai Chao searching from behind, and when he saw him about to open a cabinet at the back, he quickly said, "Wait!"
Bai Chao paused.
"That's a locker, don't rummage through it."
This locker contains things that cannot be used after laboratory research and cannot be disposed of temporarily, such as the ring that was restored previously.
Bai Chao opened the locker directly.
Zong Hui didn't stop him anymore.
It's okay to look at the things in this locker, just don't damage them.
The cabinets where valuables are stored are locked and cannot be opened without permission.
Zong Hui stood by and watched Bai Chao search the locker up and down, and finally closed the locker door with a cold face.
Zong Hui coughed and said, "This locker usually contains some miscellaneous items, including some lost items. If you can't find it here, then it really doesn't have your things. Do you want to keep looking?"
"..."
Bai Chao was silent for a moment, then turned and left the office.
Zong Hui breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the communicator: "Captain Xiao, he's gone, you don't need to come over."
……
Bai Chao walked out of the laboratory. The sunlight outside was dazzling. He raised his hand to block the light, and the metal ring on his finger reflected the light.
He took the old ring that was in the locker.
Bai Chao looked at the ring on his hand with obvious cracks.
"Where is You Xinyu?"
001 immediately said: "Host, the heroine is still in the planting area."
"Ah."
planting area.
Just as You Xinyu pulled out a carrot, she saw a pair of feet on the opposite side.
She looked up and said, "Brother Qingzhi?"
"Yes, Miss You."
You Xinyu grabbed the carrot and stood up: "Oh, Captain Xiao didn't come with you?"
Bai Chao said expressionlessly: "No."
"Oh~" You Xinyu was about to make a joke when her eyes suddenly flashed by something. She exclaimed and looked at Bai Chao's hand.
Bai Chao put his hand with the ring behind his back.
You Xinyu didn't see it clearly, but she understood it in her heart.
She smiled and said, "Brother Qingzhi, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Bai Chao looked at You Xinyu: "Do you still have the drink you gave to Xiao Xuxing?"
"Ah? Before?" You Xinyu didn't understand for a moment.
She has delivered supplies to the Special Power Team many times, including drinks...
You Xinyu patted the carrot and said, "I remember now. It was when you were just robbed... and brought back, right?"
"……Um."
"I know~"
You Xinyu guessed that Xiao Xuxing gave the drink to Bai Chao.
"So Qingzhi likes that kind of drink? You have good taste!"
Bai Chao was silent for a moment: "The drink tastes different."
You Xinyu nodded seriously.
Drinks mixed with spiritual spring water are indeed different.
People with special abilities can enhance their special abilities by drinking it, and ordinary people can also strengthen their bodies. It is more useful than health supplements.
You Xinyu threw the radish into the basket and took off her gloves: "There are still some drinks, how many bottles do you want, Brother Qingzhi?"
"One bottle." Bai Chao paused, "I don't have a contribution card, but I can exchange something else with you."
You Xinyu held a glass bottle in her hand: "It's just a bottle of drink, I'm giving it to you, you're welcome~"
"..."
Bai Chao didn't take the glass bottle, but stared at her.
"You are very generous."
You Xinyu chuckled, "It's not that bad..."
Bai Chao said seriously: "God will bless you."
“Ah…ah??”
……
Xiao Xuxing was lying on the bed counting the time boredly.
Not long after, he heard footsteps and immediately dragged his body to open the door.
"..."
Xiao Xuxing looked at the person standing at the door in silence.
"Baby, did you find the collar?"
"..."
Bai Chao was silent for a while, then pushed the man away and walked into the room.
Xiao Xuxing noticed that Bai Chao was also holding a glass bottle.
Is this... a drink?
"Is this something You Xinyu gave you?" Xiao Xuxing hugged her from behind. "Don't we have drinks at home? Why do you want hers?"
“……”Bai Chao lowered his eyes.
Xiao Xuxing rested his chin in the crook of Bai Chao's neck.
"Why haven't you said anything? Are you still thinking about the collar?"
"..."
"Don't be upset."
Xiao Xuxing tilted his head and kissed Bai Chao's neck: "When I have rested well, I will go with you to look for it, okay?"
Bai Chao suddenly trembled, turned around, and looked at the man with a reproachful look.
"You electrocuted me."
Xiao Xuxing was stunned: "I'm sorry, baby..."
He almost forgot that Zong Hui said that when his body was in the recovery stage, some of his energy would unconsciously dissipate.
So now he can't use his superpowers, nor can he stop the energy from leaking out.
Then today... he can't hug this person...
"..."
Xiao Xuxing sighed with some regret.
Forget it, just bear with it for a while, and you’ll be able to hug and kiss someone happily in another day.
late at night.
Shelter edge.
"Zhang Yan, is what you said true or false? Why are you talking so weird?"
"That's right. They pulled us out here in the middle of the night. This place is so remote that there are no psychics patrolling. If we didn't have so many people, I would have turned back long ago."
Zhang Yan wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "It must be true. I want you to see it with your own eyes. It's very safe here, don't worry."
A friend asked, "Dayanzi, why hasn't Brother Li come yet?"
"Wait a minute, let me take a look..." Zhang Yan looked into the distance, suddenly jumped up and waved.
"Brother Li! We are here."
The others looked over curiously and saw a thin figure walking towards them in the moonlight.
Zhang Yan happily introduced to everyone: "This is Brother Li."
Bai Chao put his hands in his pockets and looked at the dozen or so boys in front of him.
Zhang Yan ran to Bai Chao and said, "Brother Li, please show them the potion!"
Bai Chao shook his head: "I didn't bring it."
Zhang Yan was stunned: "Ah? Then Brother Li..."
Why did you ask them to come over tonight?
The others were discouraged when they heard this: "Zhang Yan, let's go back to sleep."
"Yeah, just because other people have superpowers doesn't mean we can have them too."
Bai Chao suddenly said: "I am an ordinary person."
Zhang Yan looked at him in surprise: "What?! Brother Li, are you an ordinary person?"
Others were even more speechless.
When an ordinary person without special powers says he can help them gain special powers, it sounds like he is a liar.
Bai Chao glanced at him and said calmly: "I never said I was a superpower."
Zhang Yan still couldn't believe it: "But..."
Bai Chao slowly raised his hand, and a cluster of blue-purple electric light suddenly jumped out.
"Is this a superpower?!"
When the boys who were about to leave saw this scene, they all stopped and looked shocked.
"Can ordinary people really have superpowers?!"
Bai Chao moved his fingers, and the lightning instantly retracted into the ring.
Although this ring lost its function after being repaired, it was still able to absorb some energy under the nourishment of the spiritual spring. So he absorbed some of the energy emitted by Xiao Xuxing, which allowed him to use his supernatural powers for a short period of time.
"Oh my god... this is actually true..."
A boy patted Zhang Yan on the shoulder.
"Dayanzi, you are so mean. You should have introduced us to Brother Li a long time ago."
There were echoes all around: "Yes, yes."
Zhang Yan also recovered from his shock and smiled: "It's not too late to get to know each other now."
Bai Chao glanced at the moon in the sky.
"It's too late, you should go back and rest."
"what?"
The others were stunned. They were waiting for this person to show his magical powers, but he was gone just like that?
One person stood up and said, "Brother Li, I heard from Zhang Yan that you can help us get superpowers. Is this true?"
"It's not about helping, but about tapping into the talents you already have."
“Do we have talents too?”
"Everyone has."
The boys' expressions became eager to try.
Bai Chao looked at Zhang Yan.
"Zhang Yan, come with me."
……
"Brother Li...are we out of the shelter?"
Zhang Yan followed Bai Chao all the way, and the excitement on his face gradually turned into confusion.
"Ah."
Zhang Yan was hesitant to go back. "Ah... Brother Li, it's very dangerous outside the shelter, and it's still night, why don't we go back..."
Bai Chao stood still.
Zhang Yan almost bumped into his back.
Bai Chao looked at the ground, as if he was quietly waiting for something.
"Brother Li?" Zhang Yan wanted to ask him what he was looking at, when suddenly, a dry vine rose from the ground.
Bai Chao walked up and turned his head: "Come up."
Zhang Yan was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out.
"Brother Li, do you have wood-related abilities?"
Bai Chao remained silent, neither admitting nor denying.
"..."
Zhang Yan climbed up the dead vine crookedly. The next second, the dead vine began to move and crawled forward at a very fast speed.
When the dead vines finally stopped growing, Zhang Yan was already dizzy. Just as he was about to climb down, the cold air blowing in his face gave him a chill.
"Where...where is this?"
Zhang Yan even sneezed. His body was a little uncomfortable with the sudden drop in temperature from high temperature to freezing point.
Bai Chao did not answer, but led his men forward.
Zhang Yan didn't dare to say anything. He hugged his arms tightly and followed Bai Chao, looking around.
It was brightly lit here, but there were no lights to be seen, and it looked as if there was ice all around.
It feels like this place is... a huge ice cave.
It's a hot summer day now, but there's ice here...
Zhang Yan felt that the Bai Dynasty became even more mysterious.
Bai Chao finally stopped, and in front of them was a tightly closed alloy door.
He walked forward and stared at the screen with a flashing red dot in the middle of the gate for a few seconds.
