When Xie Yingmian transmigrated to become Prince Ling's joy-bringing consort, Prince Ling had only one breath left.
She was being held by the wet nurses, forced to drink poisoned wine as ...
Chapter 461: The Face on Fan Jingzhou's Back
Fan Jingzhou didn't know what Yu Lingye was thinking.
He got down to business: "I originally became a knight-errant because I was tired of being a nobleman."
"Later, I realized that being a Ranger for too long wasn't very interesting. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Where there are people, there are intrigues. Even Buddhist temples are not simple."
"I'm used to seeing mountains and rivers, but it's the local specialties that really cheer me up."
"When I was a knight-errant, I wandered all over the world, and I always felt lonely because the world was so big and I had no place to settle down."
“This feeling of loneliness just continues.”
"Until I met someone."
When Fan Jingzhou said this, his eyes were fixed on Xie Yingmian. "I, entrusted by this person, have been searching for something for the past ten years."
"A certain kind of thing, to be exact."
"This person's surname is also Xie."
"His name is...Xie Jingyun."
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye looked at each other.
Every piece of news about Xie Jingyun is a bombshell that solves a mystery.
Xie Yingmian asked, "What did Xie Jingyun ask you to find?"
Fan Jingzhou: “Fragments.”
Xie Yingmian: "Fragments of the Immortality Stone?"
Fan Jingzhou shook his head: "No."
"The name is too long for me to remember. I just remember it was called Terminal Fragment."
"At first, I didn't know what terminal fragments were, nor did I know where to find them. To be honest, I had no interest in such things, until Xie Jingyun activated something in me."
Fan Jingzhou turned around and faced away from Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye.
He took off his clothes.
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye saw a human face on Fan Jingzhou's back.
A face almost identical to Fan Jingzhou's.
A human face appeared on the back of the human, with a nose, mouth and eyes, and it looked like it was asleep.
Very weird.
"Do you see this face?" Fan Jingzhou asked, "This face appeared on my back out of nowhere."
"Initially I didn't know this face existed."
"One time when I was bathing, my servant was scrubbing my back when he saw this face. He was so frightened that he screamed and fainted."
"The servant's screams attracted people in the yard."
"Everyone in the yard saw the strange face on my back."
"This incident alarmed the old lady of the Fan family. Although the Fan family didn't believe in any supernatural powers, the face was too strange and too terrifying, and the Fan family was in a state of panic."
"The old lady quickly blocked the news and suppressed the matter."
"The servants of the Fan family all abided by the rules. No one dared to spread rumors. The news of the face appearing on my back did not spread either. However, a fierce quarrel broke out within the Fan family."
Fan Jingzhou sneered.
The Fan family is divided into many branches.
This branch of theirs made the greatest contribution to the Fan family.
His grandparents died on the battlefield, as did his father, uncle, and others.
They exchanged their lives for the glory of the Fan family and for supreme honor.
The position of Duke naturally fell to the eldest brother.
Later, my eldest brother injured his lungs on the battlefield. Due to untimely treatment, the disease remained chronic. After he retired from the battlefield, his health became increasingly weak.
At that time, the eldest brother's son Fan Yue was still young and unable to take on the responsibility of the Fan family.
The children left behind by the eldest uncle were either female or too young. The younger uncle was only seventeen years old when he died and had not yet married.
Only he can shoulder the important responsibility of being the Duke.
My second grandfather's family has always been trying to persuade the old lady to leave the position of Duke to my second grandfather's uncle.
What happened to him was what my second grandfather's family would love to see.
Those people were hypocritical and said they were thinking about the Fan family, but in fact they just wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of him.
"Ever since everyone discovered the face on my back, they've been blaming me for everything that's happened to the Fan family."
"They even said that my grandparents, my uncles, my father, and those who died on the battlefield were all killed by me. Isn't that ridiculous?"
"My father, uncles, and younger uncles are fine, but I wasn't even born when my grandparents died on the battlefield. They went to great lengths to drive me away and make me lose the qualification to inherit the title of Duke."
Fan Jingzhou smiled sarcastically.
He leaned back in his chair and said, "I've had enough of the Fan family blaming me for every chicken that dies. As they wished, I left the Fan family."
"It just so happens that the woman I like doesn't want me anymore."
"I left Shangjing out of grief to become a knight-errant. Doesn't that make sense?"
He asked himself and answered, "It is indeed reasonable. Apart from those people from the Fan family, almost no one in Shangjing knows the real reason why I left Shangjing."
"I fooled everyone."
Xie Yingmian: I did deceive everyone.
When Yu Lingye told her the gossip about Fan Jingzhou, he also believed that Fan Jingzhou left Shangjing for the queen.
Xie Yingmian asked, "Did Xie Jingyun activate the face on your back?"
Fan Jingzhou said: "It's not quite appropriate."
"To be precise, it was Xie Jingyun who activated that inexplicable extra something in my body, and the human face was just one manifestation of it."
"He was also the one who told me it was called something like a terminal fragment."
"The name is very long. I didn't remember it, but I remembered the last four characters."
Fan Jingzhou crossed his hands behind his head and crossed his legs.
"Xie Jingyun told me that he is not from this era. He comes from a very distant era with advanced technology. The weapons, equipment, and technological power of his era are incomprehensible to this era."
"He said he accidentally entered a wormhole while on a mission and was dragged here by some tidal force of space and time. He inadvertently caused chaos in this era. His existence changed the fate of many people, and he regretted it."
"He wanted to set things right and minimize the impact of things from the 29th century on this era."
When Fan Jingzhou said this, he sighed deeply.
He actually didn't understand a single word Xie Jingyun said to him.
He even thought Xie Jingyun was a psychopath.
He was also thinking that when he had the chance, he would send a message to Chu Xiao, asking him to stay away from Xie Jingyun.
Until, after Xie Jingyun's fierce moves, the face behind him suddenly spoke!
Who understands the horror of that strange human face speaking human words!
Fan Jingzhou felt that he was a man who had seen the world and could remain calm even when faced with a crisis.
However, when the human face opened his mouth, he couldn't help but jump three feet high.
I didn't measure it, but it's definitely three feet high.
He jumped with all his might. If Xie Jingyun hadn't pulled him back in time, he might have jumped onto the roof.
He hadn't encountered many thrilling things in his life, but this time it was a big one.
He was so frightened that he could hardly hold his urine.
Fan Jingzhou said, "Xie Jingyun told me that the spaceship he was riding in disintegrated when he passed through the wormhole, and the android inside also disintegrated. However, the android and the terminal data fragments inside the spaceship did not completely disintegrate."
"That thing on my back is one of the terminal data fragments."
