Chapter 12 Power Outage

Li Ming touched his chin with one hand and looked at the roof with one eye, thinking about something in his mind.

Lowering his head slightly, his eyes couldn't help but stop at the meteorite again. At this time, Li Ming seemed to have thought of something. He slightly stretched out the index finger of his right hand and touched the surface of the meteorite gently like a dragonfly touching water.

Li Ming's eyes slowly closed. After a moment, the tip of Li Ming's right index finger suddenly lit up with a white starlight. At this time, Li Ming completely entered an illusion.

It seems that Li Ming is not in his own home at this moment, but in a dark and empty universe, surrounded by light spots the size of mung beans. Those light spots are very far away, just like the stars in the night sky, and some are very far away. Bright, some are very faint.

I can see their existence and feel the long distance between them. Although this illusion is not real, once my consciousness enters it, I feel as if I am immersed in it. The realistic feeling makes people will not have the illusion. There was no doubt at all, as if he was really among them.

While Li Ming was immersed in the vast starry sky, a nebula suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. This nebula was like a whirlpool, slowly rotating like the Milky Way composed of billions of stars.

It was very close to Li Ming, as if it was only the size of a palm. Li Ming could even clearly see the various celestial bodies and nebula dust floating in the nebula.

This beautiful celestial scene is intoxicating and fascinating. When Li Ming was immersed in it, another nebula formed beside it.

The two nebulae were exactly the same and rotated slowly, like an irregular disk. Li Ming looked at it with his mouth wide open. Before Li Ming could take a closer look, a third nebula also appeared nearby.

"Wow ... " Li Ming was like a happy child who couldn't believe everything he saw. He looked at this one and that one. The three rotating nebulae were like blooming flowers, so beautiful.

Each nebula has its own color and its own light. The light is formed by a dense combination of starlight, which is beautiful and magical.

I can't see the fulcrum, I can't see the thrust, I just rotate slowly in the air, I can't understand the mystery, but I can't extricate myself because of the mystery.

As you watch, your body and mind become immersed in it, wishing that time would stand still and let this scene stay at this moment.

Li Ming enjoyed all this in the illusion, but he didn't know that in reality, a gap had cracked on the meteorite, and a red and white light curtain shot out from the gap. At the same time, there were three liquid round objects in the light curtain. It's turning.

These three liquid spheres were exactly the same as the liquid sphere that Li Ming swallowed initially. They were soft and jelly-like on the outside, but inside there were densely packed stars like sesame seeds.

Li Ming in the illusion opened his mouth wide, his expression became dull, and his eyes kept looking at the three nebulae in front of him. At this moment, the three nebulae suddenly formed a circle and started to rotate. It started to rotate very slowly. , but after a few turns, the speed became faster and faster.

As the rotation accelerated, these three nebulae became smaller and smaller. This phenomenon made Li Ming frown and his expression became stiff.

Without waiting for Li Ming to react, the rapidly rotating nebula entered Li Ming's mouth, like three balls of liquid, or like someone knocked three raw eggs into his mouth. There was no feeling that these three liquid objects were directly in his mouth. Padded into the belly.

"Forehead ... "

Li Ming's body swayed and he returned to reality. There was nothing in the room. He was still sitting on the floor, with the index finger of his right hand still on the meteorite. There was no change in the meteorite, except that there was a gap on it.

After an unknown amount of time, the lights in the room became very bright.

Just as Li Ming was about to stand up, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. It felt as if something sharp was piercing his skull, passing through his skull, and forcibly entering his brain.

"Here we go again ... My head hurts ... " Li Ming couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The pain came from all directions in the head, as if a dozen needles were drilling into the head at the same time. It was the most painful when it first touched the head. As it deepened, the pain became more intense. Li Ming gritted his teeth and endured it. Writhing on the ground in pain.

He kept stroking his head with his hands. There was nothing else except his hair and facial features, but he always felt like something was getting into his head. And as soon as that thing entered his brain, it was obvious that there was something extra in his head. , swelling to the point of bursting.

The puncture stung and swelled, and Li Ming felt as if his head was about to explode.

"ah ... !!!"

Li Ming couldn't bear the pain anymore, so he shouted loudly. The sound was refreshing, as if the whole building was shaking.

Li Ming's body was no longer lying on the floor but slowly floating. The bright lights on the roof suddenly flickered on and off several times. The TV, refrigerator, and all the electrical appliances in the house flickered erratically.

As soon as the TV screen lit up, it directly played the content of a certain channel, but soon the content changed to another channel, and then a series of channels were quickly switched. The screen continued to change as the channels were switched. One was news and the other One moment it’s a song, and the next it’s a TV series.

The thermometer on the refrigerator also went up and down, and vibrated slightly. The air conditioner in the corner of the living room turned on with a soft sound, blowing out cold air for a while, and hot air for a while.

Other electrical appliances also turn on and off, or switch functions continuously after being turned on.

After these phenomena continued rapidly for more than ten seconds, the lighting on the roof suddenly exploded with a bang, and the fragments scattered all over the floor. Without the lighting, a current shot out from the lamp mouth, like a whip. He kept beating Li Ming's body.

Immediately afterwards, a "sizzling" sound of electricity came out, and the sockets of all electrical appliances began to emit powerful currents, and five or six currents were fired at Li Ming's body.

Li Ming was like a conductor floating in the air, and the five or six currents flashed and hit Li Ming's body.

"Uh ... ah ... ah ... "

Li Ming roared in pain while struggling in the air.

Viewed from a distance, the house where Li Ming lives is constantly flashing with electric light. Through the curtains, only flashes of light can be seen, as if a dozen welders are working at the same time.

On the opposite floor of the building where Li Ming lived, a long-haired woman held a white puppy in one hand and opened the curtains in the room with the other. Her eyes soon froze.

"Husband, come over and see what's going on at that house? Is there a disco show?" the long-haired woman turned around and said.

A man with glasses in the house was watching TV, paying no attention to the long-haired woman, and said , " Our community is quite messy and there are many rental houses. There may be everyone there."

The long-haired woman continued to look at the house that kept flashing, and couldn't help but let out a "cut ... " sound, and said , " If I lived above him and downstairs, I would have to report him!"

The long-haired woman said and closed the curtains of the window again.

As soon as the curtains were closed, the building where Li Ming was located suddenly experienced an abnormality. All the houses in the building began to flash abnormal lights, as if the current and voltage of the entire building were unstable.

Regardless of whether there was anyone at home or not, the electrical appliances connected to the power supply would turn on and off abnormally, and various functions would switch randomly. This abnormal phenomenon immediately caused chaos, screams, and cries of fear began to be heard.

This unusual phenomenon soon attracted the attention of other residents upstairs. Some people opened their windows to watch, and some were still talking about something. This strange phenomenon made everyone feel a little panicked.

The next moment, the building where Li Ming was located suddenly fell into darkness and became quiet. All abnormal phenomena disappeared in an instant, and the screams and shouts also disappeared, as if the entire building suddenly lost power. At this time , only one room was still flashing with lightning, as if there were several lightning bolts in the room.

The sky was dark, night had fallen quietly, and the night without lights seemed even darker. After a few seconds, all the lights in the buildings in the entire community suddenly went out, and the few discussions suddenly became boiling.

Although the entire community had a power outage, the electric light was still flashing in Li Ming's room, as if it had never stopped.

A community suddenly fell into darkness, as if it had been abandoned by the city. This sudden strange phenomenon also attracted the attention of pedestrians and shops around the community.

Among them, a chubby man with glasses walked out of the [Super Delicious] store next to the mall opposite the community. It was Manager Chen. He stood at the door of the store, looking at the direction of the community with his eyes, and said to himself , " It's really like this." The big blackout a few days ago ... "

As soon as he finished speaking, the store behind him suddenly fell into darkness, all the lights went out, and all the electrical appliances stopped working. Manager Chen suddenly turned around, his face instantly turned ugly, and he was a little panicked.

The customers who were buying and dining in the store also asked questions.

At this time, looking at the street lights, they were also falling into darkness one by one. However, the street lights did not go out directly. First, the lights dimmed, then became weaker and weaker, and finally slowly extinguished, as if something was turning off the electricity. Generally sucked away.
