Feng Minghao and his companion were startled by the sudden sound, and both of them instinctively felt murderous. However, when they turned around and saw the two people who emerged from the shadows, they were both astonished and opened their mouths wide.
Emerging from the shadows were Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao. One of them, heavily pregnant, walked briskly, while the other, with splints on her hands and feet, walked steadily. Both intelligent people were shocked by this sight and didn't know how to react.
At this moment, Liu Mingfeng suddenly burst out laughing. Feng Minghao and Liu Mingfeng reflexively looked at him upon hearing the laughter and were immediately drawn to his eyes. Those eyes were like a whirlpool, firmly attracting their attention. It wasn't until they felt a sharp pain in their fingers that they came to their senses and discovered that their left middle fingers had been pricked by something, and were still oozing blood.
Feng Minghao and Liu Mingfeng looked up, ready to question each other, but were stopped by Wu Qiaoqiao on the other side. They saw that Wu Qiaoqiao and Liu Mingfeng were also holding something, pricking their middle fingers and dripping blood into a small box.
As Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao's blood dripped into the water, a vague feeling arose in the hearts of the four of them: they could not hurt each other. Whoever hurt the other first would face something that none of them could bear.
As Feng Minghao and Lin Yuwei looked puzzled by their feelings, Wu Qiaoqiao and Liu Mingfeng stepped forward and extended their hands to them.
"Let's get to know each other again. Hello, people from ancient times. We are Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao from the apocalypse."
"The apocalypse?" X2
Feng Minghao and Lin Yuwei asked at the same time, mainly because they were unfamiliar with the two words. In the end, Wu Qiaoqiao and Liu Mingfeng explained it to them.
It turned out that Feng Minghao and Lin Yuwei had just been talking about their past lives. Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao looked at each other in confusion, and Liu Mingfeng asked Wu Qiaoqiao a question.
"After I return to my unit, will you be able to keep it from her?"
When Liu Mingfeng asked her this, Wu Qiaoqiao quickly shook her head, indicating that she couldn't hide it from him. She knew her own personality very well. She could fool ordinary people, but as for someone like Lin Yuwei, who in her previous life could outwit and outmaneuver those cunning officials in the imperial court and even protect the emperor's power, Wu Qiaoqiao said that if she were to lie for three days, her secrets would be exposed.
Moreover, Wu Qiaoqiao had another plan. Hearing that Feng Minghao and his companion were actually from ancient times, and that one of them had become the Empress Dowager and the other had died early but had become a ghost and experienced a lifetime with them, she thought that if she could learn some ancient knowledge from them, it would definitely be very useful in the future.
It's easy to imagine that this won't be their first world. If they were to travel to ancient times, especially if they were born as children or even just in their mother's womb, they could start learning from a young age. But if they were halfway through, they'd be in big trouble.
Don't treat those ancient people like fools. If you can write a few poems like in novels, people will consider you a genius. But if you write terrible handwriting and still write such good poems, people won't consider you a genius. They'll just consider you a monster. In ancient times, monsters were like people who would put you on a barbecue grill and burn you to ashes.
Now that we have such readily available talent, we must seize the opportunity. How can we not learn their skills? When Liu Mingfeng heard Wu Qiaoqiao say this, he felt that she was being a bit presumptuous. If she were to confront them so readily, wouldn't they just destroy her?
When Wu Qiaoqiao heard Liu Mingfeng's question, she just smiled and didn't say anything. Instead, she took out a small box, and Liu Mingfeng's eyes widened in shock when he saw it.
"How did you get this? And where did you put it? I didn't see it when I was tidying up your space."
"Well, wasn't there that time you were researching gene-enhancing drugs in the lab? And then the base chief asked me to cooperate with other superpowered individuals from other bases to deal with a ninth-tier mutated plant?"
"If you're looking for a collaboration, why is this thing still in your space? And where exactly did you put it?"
"Ugh, it was that idiot in that base who gave me that look that made me sick. I could have tolerated it, but he actually wanted me to sleep with him, so I just smashed his head in with a hammer. Since I killed that superhuman, the cooperation obviously didn't work out. I stuffed this under the seat of the car I drove past, so this should be enough now!"
Liu Mingfeng touched the box in his hand. At first, he thought Wu Qiaoqiao was being too whimsical, but now that he saw it, he thought the idea was pretty good.
You should know that this box was created by ancient families and cultivators during the apocalypse. It was developed in the later stages of the apocalypse to deal with advanced zombies and advanced plants and animals, requiring the cooperation of multiple superhumans. According to them, it contains the power of rules. As long as the rules to be followed are written down and dripped with the blood of both parties, whoever attacks their own people may die silently.
This item is so difficult to craft that it has only two rules: "No one can harm each other; whoever attacks first dies."
So Liu Mingfeng and Wu Qiaoqiao discussed going out to lure the two people away first, then Liu Mingfeng would use his mental power to interfere with their minds. Wu Qiaoqiao would then collect drops of their heart's blood, which led to the events described above.
After learning the whole story, Lin Yuwei was a little better, even though she and Wu Qiaoqiao were good friends. She knew that the original Wu Qiaoqiao had died before this one came to be. And it was because of this that the two children in her womb had a chance to be born, so she was relieved. However, Feng Minghao seemed to still be having trouble accepting it. He kept looking at Liu Mingfeng and then at Wu Qiaoqiao.
"So you're saying that both of my older cousins are gone, and even my two cousins' wives are practically gone too?"
Seeing his inability to accept it, Liu Mingfeng stepped forward, grabbed his neck, and pulled him aside. After Liu Mingfeng explained his reasoning, Feng Minghao had no choice but to accept it. What could he do if he couldn't accept it? After all, it wasn't a case of possession; the person had only come after his cousin had already confirmed that he wouldn't survive.
Standing to the side, Lin Yuwei and Wu Qiaoqiao watched as Feng Minghao's expression gradually calmed down after being talked to by Liu Mingfeng. Lin Yuwei pointed at Liu Mingfeng and said to Wu Qiaoqiao.
"Your husband is no simpleton either; he completely fooled mine."
"Look at what you're saying, this shouldn't be a lie, it's just that your husband is making up an excuse for himself. After all, what's done is done, and it's mainly because my husband and I didn't possess anyone. It's just that we saved a lot of people and even ended the apocalypse. According to those cultivators, that's the merit on my husband and me. It's shining brightly, and this life is a reward from the Heavenly Dao for us."
