Chapter 15 Why didn’t anyone tell me this gossip?
After the assassin finished his last words, Jing Yuan clearly felt the sudden stagnation of breathing behind him.
What followed was that the syllables that wanted to come out of the throat were forcibly suppressed and turned into a muffled groan, like a silent pain.
But now, he walked past himself and stopped in front of the corpse. He seemed calm, but his fingertips were trembling slightly as he curled up.
Death is not a strange word. Witnessing the death of an enemy with my own eyes can only mean that I am still alive. If I can be so moved...
"Do you know her?" Jing Yuan walked to his side and stood still, intending to observe him better, but "Jing Yuan" had no intention of getting up at all, leaving only the white hair passing over his eyes to obscure the emotions in his eyes.
"No, I don't know her at all." He tried to keep his voice steady, but still couldn't hide the trembling ending.
The deceased had obviously taken drugs to suppress and conceal the symptoms of the demonic body, but when she died, the drugs no longer worked.
The branches sprouted out from the body. Although the yellow color symbolized withering, it carried a strange vitality. It was firmly rooted in the body and grew slowly.
But when it really withers, it will suddenly grow out a few centimeters and devour the last bit of a person's flesh and blood in order to obtain nutrients.
"So, what did she remind you of?" Jing Yuan said casually in a casual tone.
This time, "Jingyuan" suddenly raised his head, and his trembling pupils indicated the correctness of this guess.
I want to report that this person has the ability to read minds!
Otherwise, could it be that he heard our conversation from the beginning? Haha, impossible. This is just a random guess, right? It must be, it must be!
Wow, I can’t fool myself at all!
Jingyuan, tell me honestly, how much did you hear when you delivered breakfast!
I really wanted to grab him by the collar and force him to answer, but the fact was that I was completely shocked by the aura he revealed at this moment and couldn't utter a single question.
Jing Yuan was clearly still smiling as usual, but there was no trace of smile in those captivating eyes. The contrast between the two makes people feel cold in their hearts.
At this critical moment, my brain worked rapidly and I finally understood Jing Yuan's meaning.
"Those who fall into the devil's shadow will have their six senses turned upside down and all human ethics will be lost." They collapsed in endless emotions, and in the end, the only option left was killing.
Well, as a general who has been in office in Luofu for more than 700 years, it is understandable that Jing Yuan is on guard against "another self".
But… “Don’t worry, I won’t become like this.”
Purebred human cosplayers do not have evil spirits, so the quality is guaranteed!
Jing Yuan was not surprised by what I said. He nodded and agreed to the promise, but he asked unexpectedly, "What if one day they can't control you?"
......Wait a minute! They, control? Is this script a bit dark?
I wanted to explain that I would never fall into the devil's body, but considering that this situation might cause Jing Yuan to ask about the reason, which would again involve the limitations that I could not explain, I finally acquiesced.
"That day will never come." I looked at him firmly, unable to explain the reason, and could only repeat, "I promise you, that day will never come."
"...If you must assume this possibility." I added hesitantly, realistically simulating the scenario, and finally came up with an answer, "I will come to you."
Jing Yuan did not give a clear response to this answer. He closed his eyes tightly, and when he opened them again, the warm color had returned. "What if I can't beat you?"
The joking tone made me relax a little, but the question seemed so ridiculous to me that I subconsciously retorted, "No way!"
Even if you make me a god and give me two hands, I can't last more than two moves.
——And it has to be a disastrous defeat.
Ah, damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get! We are wearing them together, why can my golden finger......
The sound of breaking air sounded in an instant, cutting through my thoughts.
It was not until Shi Huomeng's body stopped only an inch away from my heart that I realized belatedly that this was a completely undisguised temptation.
Testing...I raised my eyes to look at Jing Yuan, but I couldn't tell the emotion in his eyes.
The array sword quietly dissipated into the air, bringing this simple test to a conclusion.
Intellectually, I knew clearly that I was the one who deceived first, and I also knew that this undisguised test was actually a proof of trust. Because he really sees me as another self.
If Jing Yuan were to be tested in this way, he would definitely agree with this approach. After all, Luofu's safety is the most important thing, far above all else.
But emotionally… I restrained myself by clenching my fists, exhaling deeply, and trying not to let my emotions get in the way of my next words. “You obviously have other ways, why did you choose this one?”
This is not a question, but I really feel that it is abnormal. Jing Yuan has always been good at dealing with people and taking care of everything, so there is no reason for him to choose this method when he has plenty of time.
Unless it was… "What happened?"
"The searching Yunqi found a record at the secret gathering point of the King of Medicine." Jing Yuan, who had finished his investigation, had no intention of hiding anything and even handed over the rubbing directly.
[I feel like my condition has been getting worse recently, so I have to keep a record.
The remaining observation images are very blurry, but still vaguely recognizable. After locking the space-time coordinates, the experiment entered its final stage.
As long as we can capture him, Luofu will surely fall into civil strife, and by then, neither the hunting dogs nor the keepers will have time to care about us. We can take advantage of the chaos to escape from the organization and run away!
—Oleander, April 26]
ah? Defected organization? Why does this plot remind me of a movie jumping scene? Is your organization codenamed after wine... no, tea?
Not sure, keep looking.
[Nothing happened...Perhaps I should consider again the possibility that the funeral director deceived me.
Oh, if she dares to lie to me, I will tear her into pieces to accompany her in the imperfect love between him and me!
—Oleander, May 23
The data is normal, and the experiment continues. Also, when did you record this kind of stuff? Dear, don't have groundless suspicions, as that will affect the progress of the experiment.
——Nandina domestica, stay】
Ohhh, it turns out to be a melodramatic love story!
Sister, please take a close look at what this guy said. He didn't ask you why your physical condition was so bad. Instead, he asked you to continue the experiment. This is a blatant exploit!
[Done it!] Capturing people from the future is totally doable! No, calm down, don't act abnormal at this time. One month, I still need at least one month!
—Oleander, July 1]
Capturing the future? If this technology could really be realized, there would be no need for Black Tower to try every possible way to break the invisible vicious circle. Wouldn't it be enough to just pull his future self over?
I sighed in my heart and said with certainty: I must have been tricked.
[The capture was successful, why didn’t it appear? Fault? No, it's impossible!
—Oleander, August 3]
Well... well, it's no surprise that there are glitches. Maybe this is a trap set by this Nandina domestica and that unknown "funeral guest"!
Wake up! There is no future for a love-brained person like you!
[Found him.] Ha, that's ridiculous! General Luofu, who has fallen into the body of the devil, is not afraid to turn himself into a useless man with no ability to protect himself, and even goes against us at every turn! If he hadn't landed in the wrong place, he would have been on our side!
—Oleander, August 4]
ah? What the hell? I had already finished reading this section, but I couldn't help but read it again from the beginning.
You're not talking about Jing Yuan, right?
......What's wrong with you, useless person! I am a young man with moral integrity and responsibility. Even if the landing point is correct, it is impossible for me to join your Medicine King Secret Sect!
[His friends have noticed our actions, and we can't get past their defenses to bring him back. We can only carry out the destruction plan. If it fails, we will die.
Dear, I believe in your ability and will wait for you to come back.
— Nandina domestica, August 5
clear. If the plan succeeds, we will escape from this place. If it doesn't work...
——Oleander, stay
I know, I will kill my wife and go to be with you.
——Nandina domestica
no. ah? I thought you two were in love and were planning to cause a commotion and run away, but it turns out you two were plotting to escape from your original wife!
The key point is that you two committed suicide for love, why do you want to bring trouble to others? What? You three want to live a good life together even in the underworld?
unbelievable! (Tail tone)
I was sighing in my heart about this melodramatic record, and when I looked up, I saw Jing Yuan observing my reaction.
"...You don't believe the records here, do you?" I looked at him in surprise, and then sadly discovered that from Jing Yuan's perspective, this was most likely true.
"Are you sure that your arrival has nothing to do with the Medicine King's secret experiment?"
“…” When Jingyuan asked this question, I realized that this was something that was destined to be investigated further.
If our arrival is really related to this experiment, then the method of returning is most likely hidden in it.
To make a deeper guess, perhaps the "who" mentioned by the voice corresponds to the "he" in the first video of this record.
So, I can only answer: "I don't know."
Jing Yuan looked at me steadily, and finally sighed, "You sent them to keep an eye on us, but you told me you didn't know?"
Nonsense, I don't even know when Blade and the others became aware of this gossip!
Besides, I have been unconscious for a day and a night, how can I give them instructions? Did you calculate it in advance?
...According to the statement about "the future" in the record, it doesn't seem impossible?
Isn't this a completely closed loop? ! Damn it, I will hate the Medicine King’s secret teachings for the rest of my life!
