The tasks they received were different, and the consciousness of this world even required them not to read each other's scripts.
Coupled with the world consciousness's mysterious obsession with real reactions, it can be said that they are no different from participating in a reality show + script killing.
They were forced to find clues and investigate the case on their own to find out the truth.
The reason given by World Consciousness at the time was that "spoilers would affect the viewing experience."
Xu Shiqing could only say that he felt like he had been led by the nose since arriving in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Does anyone really want to see this kind of drama?
It’s not that he’s stupid, but this is the information he can get based on Xu Shiqing’s identity setting. No matter how hard he works or how smart he is, he can only infer this result based on the few clues.
One leaf can tell the coming of autumn, and one glance can see through everything. That is a novel, not reality.
He vaguely felt that there was a faint connection between what he had investigated in the past three years and everything that had happened in Su Hang not long ago, including his master's bizarre "suicide".
Xie Chongyue's words and actions exacerbated this feeling.
But what exactly is this line? Xu Shiqing can only hope that his trip to Lingnan will give him the answer.
In any case, he didn't believe that Liu Xiangsheng would die to prove his innocence.
Xu Shiqing frowned. The most important thing was the King of Qi's reaction. Over the years, the Emperor and he had never had any major friction. This time, with the war against Jiangnan, the King of Qi's reaction might have been the key factor in his master's "suicide."
After all, it was well known that the two of them had a good relationship, so it was possible that Master had not been framed by the Qi Wang faction who were eager to escape.
Thinking of this, he put the rag aside. The sun was slowly setting. According to Xu Shiqing's understanding, it had been dark in Bianjing for a while.
Lingnan is mountainous, and the Demon Cult is located in a dangerous place, so naturally they fled to the wilderness.
The yard faces the rolling hills. At first glance, it looks like a decoration on the courtyard wall, which is quite interesting.
The servants of the church came in with food boxes of various sizes, placed them on the table in the front room, and left quietly.
Xie Chongyue pulled Xu Shiqing out from behind the screen and said jokingly, "Why don't you care so much about your image in front of me?"
Xu Shiqing looked at his thin inner garment, which was even unraveling at the collar. Although Liu Xiangsheng came from the Jianghu, his close relationship with the King of Qi had deeply influenced his etiquette from those aristocratic families.
Being untidy in clothing is obviously very rude. It is okay if it happens with friends and confidants, but in front of outsiders, Xu Shiqing cannot help but be influenced by Liu Xiangsheng. Like a girl who has been molested, her first reaction is to hide.
Xie Chongyue was very clear about these things, and he was also used to Xu Shiqing's occasional overly strict adherence to etiquette, as if he was not a man of the world, but a scholar from an academy.
"If I cared, I should have cut off contact with you when we fell into the water together a few years ago." Xu Shiqing said unhappily.
He was talking about five years ago, when they were still weak and wanted to escape the pursuers, they jumped into the river together, drifted downstream, and finally reached the shore in a mess. On a cold winter night, in the icy river, two people soaking wet took refuge in a dilapidated temple. They lit a fire, but were they going to warm themselves with their clothes on?
The bodies of people who practice martial arts are not that durable.
They were both like this, so why was Xu Shiqing still being shy in front of him? It wasn't the first time for Hua Girl to get into a sedan chair. Over time, Xu Shiqing naturally became more relaxed in front of Xie Chongyue.
But this was for a special reason. In front of outsiders, Xu Shiqing still had the support of the Sword Sect's senior brother and was very self-conscious about his image management. Xie Chongyue was completely taking advantage of him and playing tricks on him.
Most of the dishes on the table were vegetarian. Xie Chongyue was not picky about food and could eat spicy or fresh food in line with his personality. However, Xu Shiqing still had his old habit of not wanting to eat this and disliking that. It was a coincidence that this just happened to correspond to Liu Xiangsheng's doting on him over the years.
[Don't touch the plate of wood ear mushrooms on the table.] 021 [And that plate of fish.]
The system's physical examinations were meticulous. 002 had even installed a health plug-in, far superior to the standard one. It not only constantly monitored various indicators, visualizing the host's current levels of various elements, but also provided recommendations for a healthy diet. It was precise, scientific, and systematic.
021 was very excited about this and even downloaded a bunch of interesting things from the internal plug-in download platform of the Space-Time Bureau system.
Xie Chongyue couldn't stand it anymore after watching him struggling. After asking Xu Shiqing for his opinion, he used his energy to upgrade the memory of the system for this little fool to avoid too many plug-ins being downloaded, causing the system to lag and even fail to run.
.
The next day, Xu Shiqing couldn't wait to find Xie Chongyue to ask the other party's purpose.
Now that he's in Lingnan, we should at least tell him what we're going to do.
Xie Chongyue said: "The Baiyue and Dali have reunited and are planning to advance northward."
Who is there in the north? Only Qi and Zhou.
Xu Shiqing's brows jumped. He was too familiar with this scene. It was just like that in Guandong more than a year ago. The Jin people planned to go south, but couldn't defeat the Guandong Army, so they sent their grandmaster into Guandong to kill the generals. Their conspiracies and tricks were linked together. In short, they wanted to cause chaos in the Guandong Army so that the Jin Army could wait for an opportunity to act.
If Xu Shiqing and Xie Chongyue had not been investigating the corruption case in Guandong at the time, and had traced it back to the Guandong Army and gotten involved, they might have been able to succeed.
These guys in the south are definitely more difficult to deal with than the Jin Kingdom. After all, the Southern Barbarians are particularly good at poisons and witchcraft, which are hard to guard against.
"The defenders in Lingnan couldn't hold on anymore, so they came to you?" Xu Shiqing had to think so.
