I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 967: Time Ability

"A person with the ability of time?"

Hearing Mo Ling's question, Xiao Kong showed a confused expression on his face. Then he turned to look at the girl with black hands, and the girl with black hands also shook her head.

Then, Xiaokong began to ponder.

After a while, he suddenly seemed to have an epiphany, created a space ripple around him, and walked in.

Not long after, he came out again, holding the hand of a timid little girl.

This little girl was exactly the one Mo Ling saw when he first arrived at the ruins. She had always been protected by companions older than her and looked very ignorant. If I remembered correctly, the little girl's name should be "Xiao Lian".

After bringing Xiaolian to Mo Ling, Xiaokong looked around, then picked up a hard stone from the ground and scratched his palm with it.

Soon, blood flowed out from the wound. The wound was very deep. Xiao Kong had obviously used a lot of strength. Bright red blood beads accumulated in his palm, growing more and more.

Seeing this scene, Mo Ling was completely confused and didn't know what Xiaokong was planning to do.

He didn't seem to care about his wound at all, and said to the little girl beside him lightly:

"Xiao Lian, come and try."

After saying that, he bent down and spread out his bloody palm. The blood instantly flowed out from the edge of his palm and dripped onto the ground.

When the little girl heard the order, she hurriedly came to Xiaokong's hand.

She just glanced at the palm and a magical scene happened.

I saw that the drop of blood that had just fallen on the ground suddenly floated up from the ruins and stuck to the palm, and then all the flowing blood suddenly flowed back and drilled into the wound. Then, the blood-stained palm slowly turned white, as if some power completely washed away all the blood stains.

When the red blood completely penetrated into the wound, the wound began to "heal" again. The healing was not the normal "scab formation", but it was like the scene of cutting the wound was played upside down, and the already cut wound was forcibly "sewn" back. The small stones in the wound were picked out directly by some force, and the broken flesh and blood were "pasted" back together without any trace.

In just a moment, there was no trace of injury on Xiaokong's palm, even the blood stains disappeared completely. Mo Ling looked carefully and found that the flesh and blood inside had recovered as if it had never been injured, complete.

After doing all this, Xiaolian timidly hid behind the boss again, as if the magical scene just now had nothing to do with her at all, and she didn't consume any abilities.

Mo Ling was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiaolian, and then looked at Xiaokong's hand.

"This is not a cure, this is turning back time," he said with certainty.

Hearing this, Xiao Kong also nodded: "That's right, we thought her ability was healing at first, but later we found out that she can not only heal, but also make the blood flow back into the wound..."

Xiaokong told Mo Ling about their experience when they found Xiaolian.

"Xiao Dan found her and brought her back to the shelter..."

Children in the shelter usually don't show their abilities too early, but Xiaolian is different. As soon as she arrived at the shelter, she showed wisdom beyond her age.

He doesn’t like to play with other children. Instead, he often observes his older brothers and sisters and often imitates the behavior of those “adults”.

At that time, she showed her healing ability, often coming up to help everyone with their treatment when they returned to the shelter.

Because it seemed that she didn't consume any energy at all when she was performing the treatment, everyone thought that this was a very powerful healing ability, so they took her more seriously.

When her brothers and sisters went out to find food, she really wanted to follow them, but she was too young and no one was willing to take her with them.

then……

She made herself older. One day, when everyone was going out to explore, they found a strange girl in the shelter. The girl was dazed and couldn't tell who she was. If she wasn't wearing familiar clothes, everyone would have almost failed to recognize her.

This strange girl is Xiaolian.

She made herself the same age as her older brothers and sisters just to hang out with them.

"Those kids are so stupid. I don't want to play with them."

She explained the reasons for her actions and did not put herself in the category of "children" at all.

Later, after her brothers and sisters agreed to take her out, she changed herself back to her normal age.

At this time, everyone in the shelter began to study her abilities:
"When you heal a wound, you make the blood flow backwards."

"If the wound has already formed a scab, the scar and scab will be restored to the original shape of the wound, and then return to normal."

"No matter how serious the injury is, the treatment time is the same."

"The time it takes to heal has nothing to do with the size or depth of the wound. It only has to do with the time it takes after the injury, but that's not a big deal."

"Treatment does not consume any energy..."

No consumption, what a terrifying ability. After learning about Xiaolian's ability, everyone in the shelter was shocked.

They asked Xiaolian how she did it, and Xiaolian's answer was also strange.

“I saved up the time I was injured.”

"Then how did you suddenly grow up?"

“I used the time I saved on myself, and I grew up.”

The perception of ability is a very metaphysical thing, and each survivor's perception of himself is unique.

Some feel that their ability is "an arm", some feel that their ability is "a gust of wind", and some feel that their ability is "a handful of sand". The degree of control ability of the survivors is also different. They can only learn from each other and cannot be completely compared. As for Xiaolian's feeling, everyone in the shelter can only train and guide her to help her find the correct control method.

They didn't know Xiaolian's true ability, they just let her be responsible for the treatment work, constantly use her ability, and understand the true function of the ability as soon as possible.

Although she is much smarter than other children of the same age, she still lacks experience, which can only be made up through constant training and exploration.

"That's why we have been keeping her with us. She doesn't want to stay in the shelter. Now that we have asked her to take on the responsibility of treatment, she is also willing to do so and is much more obedient than before."

"I guess the person with the ability to time is her. We can probably guess the function of her ability, but only she knows its true nature."

Xiaokong looked at Xiaolian who was hiding behind him, his tone containing a hint of worry.

Obviously, he didn't want to let such a young friend take risks like this.

Xiaolian behind him, although looking timid, had a firm gaze. She did not look like a child but rather a soldier about to go to the battlefield, which made Mo Ling a little dazed.

Just after Xiaokong finished explaining Xiaolian's ability, Wang Chuan's voice sounded in Mo Ling's ears again:

"It's her, that's right."
