Chapter 47 Becoming the Real You
"...Haha," Qiao Bai grinned and looked at Jun Mo, "How about you take another look?"
Jun Mo, who is usually quite frivolous, didn't notice anything unusual in front of such an outrageous mushroom.
The faces of the other psychics were already flushed.
"Boss, I have something else to do. I'll leave first."
"Well, I haven't hung my clothes out to dry yet. I'll go back and hang them out first."
"Boss, it's almost noon. I'm going to have breakfast first."
"Boss...why don't you think about it again? This mushroom..."
Jun Mo frowned and looked at the mushrooms on the ground: "Isn't it a good painting?"
"Hey...it's great, it's great, Boss, I'm leaving now!"
Qiao Bai suppressed his laughter and looked at all the psychics who had run away, wondering how to remind Amo that the mushrooms he drew looked a little too much like "mushrooms".
“Beep!”
A jeep came closer and finally stopped in front of the two people.
The car window rolled down, and it was Ren Jing.
Ren Jing glanced at Qiao Bai, then looked at Jun Mo: "Chat?"
"No rush, can you help me check if there's anything wrong with my drawing?" Jun Mo asked, pointing at the mushrooms on the ground.
Ren Jing lowered his eyes, looked at the ground, and then showed an expression that was difficult to describe.
"You're drawing your brother in public?"
Qiao Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud.
“Hahahahahaha!”
Jun Mo looked at his masterpiece, thought of Ren Jing's words, and finally reacted.
At this moment, Jun Mo's expression also changed.
The next second, the mushrooms on the ground had turned flat.
Qiao Baixiao's stomach hurt.
"Hahahahaha Amo, hahaha!"
Jun Mo tapped Qiao Bai's forehead helplessly: "Can't you just remind me directly? Are you happy to see me make a fool of myself?"
Qiao Bai's eyebrows curved, and he grabbed Jun Mo's hand: "The omnipotent Lord Luosha, the painting is so abstract, I am also surprised."
"You were so surprised that you forgot to remind me~" Are you kidding? I have reminded you so many times in a tactful way, but you couldn't see it yourself. Who can you blame?
"Guess whether I believe it or not?" Jun Mo leaned over, pinched Qiao Bai's nose as if to punish her, and then quickly kissed her red lips. "Go back and eat first, I'll be back later."
Qiao Bai licked his lips, smiled and leaned over to bite Jun Mo: "Go home early."
Jun Mo patted Qiao Bai's butt and watched him enter the base.
Ren Jing lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.
"Get in the car."
The jeep drove all the way to the primeval forest.
Jun Mo opened the car window and frowned: "My baby doesn't like the smell of smoke."
Ren Jing snorted and laughed: "How could the leader of M Base be tied up by a man one day?"
"It's still better than you, who is very clever but has only one clue," Jun Mo said sarcastically.
This made Ren Jing unable to refute.
For a moment, the two fell into an eerie silence.
After a while, Ren Jing slapped the steering wheel in annoyance and cursed.
"Jun Mo, I know you are not the original Jun Mo! You and I have also come back from the future, right?" Ren Jing grabbed Jun Mo's collar and took off his mask directly.
As expected, behind the mask was the only person in power in the M base he was familiar with.
"I should have thought of this earlier. Ten years later, you were willing to give up so much material resources to get Qiao Bai. Now, if we go back ten years, of course you would have him in your hands!"
Jun Mo's face turned cold, and he squeezed Ren Jing's wrist tightly: "I know more than that."
"You'd better be polite to me, otherwise, I don't mind making this precarious world collapse again!"
"What collapse? What do you mean? Explain it to me clearly!" Ren Jing let go of his hand, his eyes fierce.
Jun Mo slowly straightened his clothes, brushed off the non-existent dust on his body, and then said slowly: "Let's count our experiences as two lifetimes."
"This world was originally a book, and you and Mo Hongxiao are the key to it."
"In this book, you experienced the apocalypse for ten years, and finally became a pioneer of a new era, becoming a leader among men."
"The only thing that's not good is that you're blind. You're so blind to love someone so vain and selfish. So how many innocent people has Hong Xiao killed? I don't need to poke you in the heart, right?"
Ren Jing clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "I know that many brothers who fought for me were killed by me..."
Jun Mo corrected him: "It was Mo Hongxiao who killed them in order to gain your favor alone."
"That includes my Qiao Bai, and your good brother Qingming, who's wearing the same crotchless pants as you. Well, his ending should be... accidentally discovered by Mo Hongxiao about his feelings for you. Then, he was ostensibly assigned to clean up, but in reality, he was knocked unconscious and taken away by someone he bribed as soon as he left the house."
"Because you didn't use enough strength to hit your good brother, his spine was broken and he suffered from hemiplegia for life." In fact, he was paralyzed on purpose.
Ren Jing's eyes immediately turned red.
"...something that hasn't happened in ten years?"
"Well," Jun Mo crossed his legs, his eyes indifferent, "the ending of your previous life should have been that you and Mo Hongxiao were bound together for life, he enjoyed all the glory you brought him, and you even committed suicide for love after his death."
"However, my appearance changed part of the ending. Qingming was saved by me, and my Qiao Bai was also acquired by me. And you, probably gained self-awareness after I changed most of the ending."
Ren Jing nodded: "...Originally, I just occasionally had some thoughts that Mo Hongxiao's approach was not right. Then one day, I realized that what I wanted to do was inconsistent with what I had already done, but I couldn't change it no matter what."
"That day I got the zombie virus and the potion to cure it at the same time. I held the virus in one hand and the potion in the other."
"I tried for a long time but couldn't drink the potion containing the zombie virus."
"It wasn't until I handed over the management of the base that I was finally able to drink it."
Jun Mo curled his lips: "I guess, the protagonist turned into a zombie, and that world couldn't be maintained, so it collapsed."
Ren Jing remained silent, unable to digest Jun Mo's words.
"Then why can I have my own ideas and even put them into action in this life?"
"Regarding this point," Jun Mo pondered for a moment, "I can't say it in too much detail, but basically, now that you are a flesh-and-blood person, you can slowly break away from the established plot and become your true self."
