Chapter 1352 Extraterrestrial Chronicles 5
Erlang looked at Mingxu and sneered, "Hmph, another one coming to die. That's right, I am a bad guy! But since you're out, then become my prisoner too!" Erlang felt that the child in front of him was a great threat, but he didn't know why he had this feeling.
As he spoke, he raised his gun to fire. Mingxu, however, reacted swiftly, grabbing Xiaoxin's hand and pulling him away quickly. Bullets whizzed past their ears, causing everyone to scream in alarm.
"Good lad, not bad skills." Erlang was also taken aback by Mingxu's actions.
Mingxu shielded Xiaoxin behind him, staring coldly at Erlang: "I won't let a bad person like you hurt everyone."
Enraged, Jiro fired again. Mingxu pulled Xiaoxin aside, dodging left and right, occasionally knocking over objects to block the bullets. Seeing this, Guangzhi and the others sprang into action, some picking up objects and throwing them at Jiro to distract him, while others shouted encouragement to Mingxu.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ailian rushed towards Erlang, trying to seize his gun. Erlang noticed and kicked Ailian away. Mingxu picked up a sharp stone from the ground and threw it at Erlang. Erlang dodged to the side, but this distraction disrupted his firing rhythm.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mingxu quickly approached Erlang with Xiaoxin and delivered a flying kick to Erlang's wrist. Erlang cried out in pain, and the gun fell to the ground. Xiaoxin quickly ran over and kicked the gun aside. Seeing this, Erlang swung his fists and charged at Mingxu. Mingxu neither dodged nor evaded, exchanging punches with him. Afterwards, Erlang clutched his arm, staring in shock at the child in front of him. How could he be so strong? However, his years of fighting experience allowed him to stop the fight and instead keep looking for opportunities to pick up the gun from the ground.
The two were locked in a fierce struggle, neither gaining the upper hand. Hiroshi and the others watched from the sidelines, looking for an opportunity to help subdue Jiro. The old woman searched everywhere for something to bind Jiro and finally found a rope. She shouted, "Catch!" and threw the rope towards Akira.
Mingxu took the rope, waited for the right moment, and wrapped it around Erlang's legs. Erlang, caught off guard, tripped over the rope and fell to the ground. Mingxu quickly stepped forward and tightly bound Erlang with the rope. Erlang struggled, cursing incessantly.
Shin-chan ran up to Jiro and made a face at him: "You bad uncle, now you can't escape!" Jiro was furious, but there was nothing he could do. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Jiro had been subdued, and they all gathered around Mingxu, praising him for his bravery.
Mingxu smiled and waved his hand: "It's good that everyone is alright. We need to think about how to leave this strange place."
As they were talking, a door next door suddenly opened, revealing the room where they had just been in hibernation pods.
Everyone was taken aback, and then Hiroshi realized: "So the rooms are connected."
"scared me."
“The sand seems to have moved quite a bit,” Ailian said, looking at the hourglass in front of her.
"? Has this thing changed a lot?" Mingxu looked at her in confusion, unaware of what had happened before.
“Yes, it was around here before, and now it’s here.” Ailian gestured on the hourglass.
Shin-chan saw the Bixue on the ground and excitedly reached for it to drink, but Hiroshi stopped him and took the Bixue from his hand instead.
"No."
"Why?" Mingxu was also puzzled.
"Because this is something from 100 years ago," Hiroshi explained to Mingxu.
"So, we've been in space for over a hundred years and our bodies haven't changed at all? Is that even possible?" Mingxu looked at his body. There were signs of growth, but at most, he had grown for about a year. That time was simply impossible. It seemed that someone had altered the time on the spaceship.
"Hiss, that's possible. In that case, alright, I'll try it first!" Guangzhi said, picking up Bixue.
"Huh? Will everything be alright?" Misae asked, a little worried.
"It's okay, I'll give it a try." Hiroshi said, picking it up, taking a sip, and then showing a pained expression.
"dad?"
"husband!"
"Burp~" A loud burp followed, then Hiroshi exclaimed with delight, "Delicious! It'll still taste as good as it did 100 years ago, super carbonated golden Bixue!"
"Me too! Me too!" Xiaoxin excitedly grabbed it and took a big gulp. The group shared it, and even Xiaobai wasn't surprised. Then Mingxu was a little puzzled: "That thing seems to be edible, but after eating it, there are some minor changes in your body, but they don't last long." As he spoke, he pointed to the spot where he had just been standing.
"Huh? There's been a change? What's changed?" Misae and the others were taken aback by Mingxu's words and asked curiously.
"I'm not sure yet, I just have a feeling that something might change," Mingxu said, clenching his fist.
"Oh? Is that so?" Since Xiao Xu said it was fine, they went upstairs and ate a little, enough to fill their stomachs but not enough to hinder their movement.
After Mingxu and the others tied Erlang up, Xiaozhu, the lackey standing to the side, immediately began to fawn over them. However, the foolish couple immediately hid far away when they saw Mingxu; they were terrified of the little guy.
As for Erlang, although he was tied up, he continued to bark wildly until Mingxu slapped him unconscious.
However, not long after he was knocked unconscious, he felt something was wrong with his body. His body began to swell, but once the energy in his body circulated, his body returned to normal. He turned to look at the others, and Mingxu helped them recover. He ignored Erlang on the ground, since it didn't matter whether Erlang was there or not.
Inside the hibernation pod, Ailian looked around and then turned to them; "I suspect there are aliens on this ship."
"Aliens?" Everyone was somewhat surprised. Mingxu looked at these people, scratched his head, and it seemed that there were indeed some who weren't human. But why her?
"How many people are on this spaceship?" Ailian asked again, looking at them.
Hiroshi counted on his fingers: "Miss Ailian, Auntie, the foolish couple, the escaped prisoner, the opportunist Xiaozhu, and our family members, 11 people and a dog."
“That’s right, but there are only nine frozen capsules.” Ailian pointed to the frozen capsules behind her and said, “As for Xiao Xu, although I don’t understand why he’s there, at least he’s one of the sleeping ones.”
“There are 11 people and one dog.” Shin-chan nodded in agreement.
“Without eating anything and not in a state of cryosleep, it’s impossible for a human to survive for 100 years,” Ailian continued.
"You mean there are aliens among us?" Misae asked in surprise.
“Of course, it’s also possible, as Xiao Xu said, that we haven’t actually been asleep for a hundred years, only about a year, and that some people are surviving on the food up here.” Ai Lian said uncertainly, then looked at Ming Xu: “Xiao Xu, didn’t you notice this before you were sealed inside that thing?”
"Um, I seem to remember that when everyone was brought up here, I caused a huge scene. Then I broke one of the cryogenic capsules. Before they used technology to put me into a deep sleep, they sealed me inside that thing. It seems that thing also has a preservation function." Mingxu recalled, then looked at everyone and said.
“An alien… Come to think of it, don’t you guys think this guy looks like an alien? At least, no human on Earth looks like that.” Mingxu said, his gaze falling on Xiaozhu, who was fawning over him behind him.
"Hiss, that's true, this guy doesn't look like an Earthling at all." After Mingxu said that, everyone's eyes fell on Xiaozhu, and they nodded subconsciously.
"Ah! No, no! That's so unfair! How can you judge people by their appearance? I, I'm definitely not an alien!" Xiao Zhu broke out in a cold sweat, waving his hands and shaking his head repeatedly, afraid that they would really think he was an alien.
"Tsk tsk, the more you try to explain, the more guilty I feel. But this guy shouldn't be the kind of alien you think he is." Mingxu shook his head at Xiaozhu. He had just tested him for a while, and all he could do was be guilty and timid. If his disguise was really that sophisticated, then he would just need to be more careful.
"Who is that?" Everyone was still curious.
"I don't know. But we still need to search this area and see if we find anything," Mingxu suggested. "After all, we all want to go back to Earth, right?"
"Yes," everyone nodded in agreement.
"Waaaaah~" Erlang on the ground struggled violently.
"Slap!" Mingxu slapped him on the head, and Erlang immediately fell silent.
"Tsk tsk. It's good to be young, you can fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow." Mingxu clicked his tongue as he looked at Erlang.
"?" Everyone looked at him speechlessly. Wasn't he knocked unconscious by you?
"Alright, let's decide on this plan now. Everyone, split into several groups and go out to search. Of course, the elderly, weak, sick, and those remaining should stay here to guard against any accidents. You just mentioned that there's still that little wave here, right? Everyone, be careful with that thing. I can't be sure if I can handle it right now," Mingxu shrugged.
"Okay." Although some people were puzzled as to why everyone was listening to the child, no one voiced any objections.
So, everyone began to divide the tasks according to Mingxu's suggestion. Misae, Shin-chan, Shiro, and the old lady stayed in the hibernation pod, partly to protect the relatively weaker ones, and partly to keep an eye on Jiro, who had been knocked unconscious, to prevent him from causing trouble again after waking up. Jiro's gun was now in Misae's hands.
Mingxu, along with Ailian and Guangzhi, went out to explore. Xiaozhu secretly followed, feeling it was safer to stay with Mingxu and the others. They cautiously navigated the spaceship, carefully searching each new room to see if they could find any useful clues or tools that could help them return to Earth.
