I have two principles as a human being:
1. Never lie.
2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.
“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the fi...
The mystery of time is that it can not only be shortened, but also lengthened.
Regardless of what Cheng Shi experienced outside the real universe, he waited for more than a day in reality.
He thought that sending the shadow out would allow him to receive two sets of memories at the same time, but he was wrong. The spacetime barrier blocked the shadow from seeing everything, just like the scene when he and the shadow parted in the spacetime storm. Only when Ying Chengshi returns can he bring back the memories of these days.
On this day, the clowns, deeply involved in the plan, were also busy. They kept probing the solution in order to understand its true purpose.
As a believer in "Memory" and a former member of the historical school, Zhao Xishi was always collecting information, so it was not abrupt at all for her to be the one asking the questions.
She had asked countless questions, from the highest gods to the lowest mortals, and was almost tired of being asked them all, yet she didn't find it annoying at all, asking one every now and then:
"Your plan seems to have failed. More than 26 hours have passed, and the Master of Tricks has still not returned."
I cannot understand what you mean by "mutual benefit." All I see is a murder, a brazen murder.
"You're a believer in [Memory], not a devotee of [Time], so there's no need for you to announce the time every hour," Jie Shu said with a cold snort, glancing at him dismissively.
"When I contacted you before, you didn't seem to be so interested in my plan, let alone that you would pay so much attention to the Master of Deception."
"What, you've taken a liking to him?"
Zhao Xishi didn't take the malicious joke to heart: "I wouldn't say I'm attracted to you, I'm just curious."
"Curious? I think you're more curious about me than the master of trickery, aren't you?"
Zhao Xishi raised an eyebrow but did not refute. Instead, she followed up on Jie Shu's words and said, "Since you're all curious and have nothing better to do, why don't you share? I can exchange with you. You know, followers of [Memory] know many people's secrets."
"I'm not interested in other people's secrets; I'm only interested in my experiments."
experiment!?
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him.
Jie Shu glanced around, taking in everyone's reactions. His mocking gaze seemed to have anticipated something, and he chuckled, saying:
"That's right, this is not just a plan, but an experiment."
I'm not lying to you. Su Yida is indeed a competitive and self-aware master of trickery. It's true that he wants to kill Cheng Shi. And I happen to need a test subject to verify my theory of the connection between spacetime traces.
We hit it off immediately, achieving a win-win situation. What's wrong with that?
etc!
Everyone's expression changed.
Since the so-called theory of the connection between time and space traces has not been proven, how did he use this theory to send the master of trickery out?
Oh no, have we been set up by the wise man?
The clowns felt a chill run down their spines, realizing the problem.
The solution's plan doesn't seem to be riddled with flaws; rather, it uses these flaws to extend an "invitation" to them!
No, seduction!
He's fishing!
But who is he targeting? A clown, or someone specific? Or perhaps... Cheng Shi?
Jie Shu chuckled twice, it was hard to tell whether it was praise or sarcasm:
"As I said, it's a mutually beneficial arrangement."
Isn't one of you using my plan to accomplish what you want to do?
Since you've hitched a ride with me, you don't have to be so heartless as to refuse to give me a ride along the way, do you?
"Cooperation leads to a win-win situation, isn't that what you... Cheng Shi is best at?"
"......"
"......"
"......"
Who is Cheng Shi?
Zhao Xishi—no, Zhen Xin—remained unfazed, casually waving her hand to bring the rooftop back into the [Chaos] domain. The three swindlers exchanged glances, all pondering the same question:
Testing the waters or feigning a settlement?
Cheng Shi, who plays Mo Shu, chuckled and waved to Zhen Xin as he watched the confused Jie Shu fall into chaos without realizing it.
“If a wise man can’t guess what’s wrong, then there’s no need to worry about him; just let him guess.”
Given your chaotic identity, all he can do is speculate.
However, this cleared up my confusion. No wonder he wasn't in a hurry for the plan; it turned out that this was also an experiment.
He was certain that someone would be interested in Su Yida, no, he was certain that I would be interested in Su Yida, and even certain that I would get involved.
So, it's highly likely that his and Mo Shu's behavior in front of the Dragon King and Longjing was just an act. He deliberately leaked the information to you, and poor Mo Shu didn't even realize it.
This means he knows far more about Su Yida than we do; he knows about the relationship between the Master of Tricks and me, and even some things I don't know...
Interestingly, we are leveraging his plan, and the wise man is also using our strength.
But he probably didn't realize that the power he wanted to borrow didn't belong to us, but was given to Longjing by Cheng Shi from another world.
Countless accidents pieced together to form a coincidence, but can a coincidence with so many coincidences still be considered a coincidence?
Temporal and spatial traces connect...
What is he trying to find through this connection?
"Looking for you?" The Dragon King raised an eyebrow.
"No, if he really was looking for me, he has already found me."
Cheng Shi couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up thinking about it and said, "Forget it, who cares who he looks for? Maybe when Shadow comes back, he can bring back the answer."
If not, after the plan is over, I'll follow him and see what this wise man is really up to.
The three clowns exchanged glances and nodded simultaneously. To avoid giving themselves away, Zhen Xin waved away the "Chaos" spell, and the rooftop quickly returned to normal.
