Chapter 60
The two were shocked: "Boss Gu, you?!"
You're exposed?!
When Su Xuan heard this, he immediately said in a muffled voice, "Haha, Boss Gu?"
The flames of war suddenly shifted.
Gu Shuo paused, then earnestly admitted his mistake again: "Ah Xuan, I was wrong."
"Haha, haha," Su Xuan said with a forced smile, "So it's still Boss Gu. How many things about you do I don't know?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Shuo opened his mouth... and then fell into thought.
Su Xuan: “?!!”
Yan Yue and Yan Ning'an wiped their faces. They never expected to see this situation when they opened the door.
Seeing Su Xuan grinding his teeth over there, Yan Ning'an made a quick decision and decisively left his leader behind: "Uh, um, Comrade Yan Yue, let's go and see what kind of spell is on Comrade Zong Ning's chest!"
The words were spoken with such cadence and passion that it was obvious that he wanted to escape from the war.
Yan Yue was also very understanding and said tactfully, "Let's go."
On the other side, Gu Shuo wanted to continue touching Su Xuan's hand to explain, but Su Xuan slapped him away with a snap: "Don't touch me for five hours!"
After saying this, he stood up angrily and followed Yan Yue and the others.
Gu Shuo: “…”
Beside the bed, Ye Yun silently made way. When Yan Ning'an stepped forward and took a look, his frivolous expression subsided and his brows furrowed slightly.
The red spell on Zong Ning's left chest was scattered like a mysterious pattern, and there was no change compared to a few hours ago.
"How about it? Do you know this spell?" Yan Yue asked.
Yan Ning'an shook his head and said, "It's a spell I've never seen before."
Just when everyone's heart sank, Yan Ning'an said calmly, "But you can try to crack it. Give me one night."
…
The waiting time was very difficult.
During this time, Su Xuan tried to persuade Ye Yun to take a nap - he had been guarding the bed for too long and looked exhausted.
However, Ye Yun just shook his head, lowered his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zong Ning fell asleep so suddenly, leaving them with too many questions. At this moment, everyone must have a lot of things in their minds.
Su Xuan sighed and sat back down next to Gu Shuo silently.
It was not until eight o'clock in the morning that the door was opened with a "bang". Yan Ning'an stumbled in with his hair scratched like a chicken coop. He rushed to the side of Zong Ning's bed in shock and looked at the spell on his left chest.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Su Xuan and the others immediately stood up and gathered around.
Yan Ning'an's breathing became a little rapid. He compared the spell he had copied on his notebook, confirming several times that he had copied it correctly. Then he raised his head and said dazedly, "I figured it out."
Su Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and asked the key question: "Can it be solved? Can Zong Ning be awakened?"
Gu Shuo looked at Yan Ning'an's expression and asked, "What kind of spell is this?"
This question goes back to the beginning, that is, the essence of the red spell on Zong Ning’s left chest.
Yan Ning'an's expression also became more agitated. Apparently, this was the real source of his excitement.
Under everyone's gaze, Yan Ning'an clenched the notebook in his hand, his eyes shining brightly: "This is a time-travel spell!"
When these words came out, everyone was stunned, and then they all showed a look of astonishment.
Yan Ning'an's eyes held a hint of disbelief and excitement at the prospect of the unknown: "The caster of the spell wants to make certain people go back in time!"
*
Yan Ning'an's discovery was like a huge rock, causing a thousand waves.
Because of Zong Ning's case, although not all staff at the B City Monster Bureau worked overtime last night, many people arrived early today.
As soon as they heard that Yan Ning'an had cracked the spell, regardless of whether he was a sorcerer or not, all the staff gathered around and scrambled to read Yan Ning'an's notebook. Yan Ning'an then reconfirmed it three times and firmly told Su Xuan and the others that the spell on Zong Ning's left chest was indeed the time-space travel spell!
This spell is like a hole in a time tunnel. They have no "solution" to it and can only let it take effect and take one step at a time.
The director of City B's Monster Bureau and the leader of the wizard team were also stunned. They had never imagined that the red spell was a time-travel spell. Who did the caster want to send back to the past? Why did he want to send them back to the past? And how could he wake Zong Ning after returning to the past?
They had so many questions, but no one could answer them.
As for who the caster wants to send back to the past, Yan Ning'an offered an analysis: "The spell doesn't explicitly point to anyone. It's just the entrance to a time tunnel. I don't think we need to speculate about the caster's 'candidate'. In other words, the caster is a person from over a thousand years ago. Who among us could he know?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Su Xuan whispered, "Me?"
He also lived more than a thousand years ago.
Although Zong Ning once said that they had no contact more than a thousand years ago, maybe Su Xuan and the caster knew each other... ?
"Boss Gu too." Yan Yue said, adjusting his glasses.
The director of the Monster Bureau of City B and the leader of the wizard team showed shocked expressions: "Two first-generation monsters?"
Is the lineup so luxurious?!
Yan Yue and Yan Ning'an remained silent.
And Su Xuan glanced at Gu Shuo.
It is impossible for a half-demon to possess such powerful strength and such a long lifespan unless he also possesses a spirit core.
But the current situation is special, and Su Xuan has no time to explore this point. Anyway, for him... it is the best thing that Gu Shuo has the spirit core.
After hearing Yan Yue's words, Yan Ning'an said, "Okay, then count Mr. Su and Boss Gu in. Besides them, we don't know who else the curse caster knew, right? We can't issue a reward notice, asking anyone who knew Zong Ning over a thousand years ago to come forward. After all, Zong Ning is now in a coma, and we have no way of confirming who is telling the truth and who is lying."
"So, we just need to follow our own ideas. This is a time-travel spell. After traveling through time, we will inevitably face a series of unknown situations. In order to ensure that we can smoothly solve all possible problems, we can form a small team of about four to five people. Mr. Su and Boss Gu must go, I will lead the way, and I must go too. The rest -"
"Can I go with you?" Ye Yun suddenly asked.
Everyone was stunned and looked at him.
From yesterday until now, Ye Yun has hardly spoken a word. Most people almost forgot his existence until he spoke at this moment.
Ye Yun pursed his lips.
After a night of silence, he had become very calm. "Zong Ning thinks I'm related to his lost memories, right? Although to him, I'm probably just the reincarnation of someone from over a thousand years ago, but maybe I can be of use. And although I don't have spiritual power, I've learned martial arts and can fight. As long as I don't encounter monsters, I should have no problem protecting myself."
His words made everyone ponder.
Theoretically speaking, it would be safest for a time-space travel team if all members possessed spiritual power.
No one knows whether they can continue to act together after returning to the past. Once they are separated, humans have no chance of winning against the monsters.
But what Ye Yun said was not wrong.
The memory that Zong Ning lost was from a night more than a thousand years ago, and the curse on him was probably related to that night.
The caster of the time-travel spell is likely to take them back to that night, and Ye Yun is the only person present who is related to that night... although this "relationship" is somewhat subtle and vague.
Yan Ningan hesitated and said, "If you are willing..."
Su Xuan interrupted him and said to Ye Yun, "If you want to go, I will definitely protect you, but are you sure you want to go?"
Ever since he realized that for Ye Yun, he and his previous life were not one and the same, but two different people, Su Xuan had always felt that the awakening of Zong Ning's memory might not be a good thing for Ye Yun.
Yes, there is no connection between the memories of the past life and the present life. They grew up in different environments and had different experiences. How could two people created in this way be the same person?
Is Zong Ning's feeling for Ye Yun actually towards Ye Yun himself, or is it the imprint left in his heart by Ye Yun's previous life?
Su Xuan is Zong Ning's friend, so he naturally hopes that the curse on Zong Ning can be lifted quickly and he can wake up soon.
But according to Zong Ning, once the spell is lifted, his memory will return.
Ye Yun may be useful to this operation, or he may not be. To be on the safe side, it is best to bring him along.
But if Ye Yun confirmed the existence of his previous life with his own eyes, and had to face Zong Ning whose memory had been awakened after returning... that would be a very cruel thing for Ye Yun.
Su Xuan couldn't bear to do such a cruel thing.
Well, in the final analysis, Zong Ning shouldn't have kept flirting with her before his memory regained consciousness. No matter what he decides to do, Ye Yun will be in an awkward situation...
Could Ye Yun not see what Su Xuan was thinking?
But to Su Xuan's surprise, Ye Yun actually smiled.
After keeping his eyes open all night, he looked much more haggard, with a dark spot under his eyes.
But his smile at this moment showed a hint of clarity and ease after figuring things out.
He said seriously: "Mr. Su, don't worry about me, I have figured it out."
He lowered his eyes, pursed his lips and smiled: "I like Zong Ning... I haven't known him for long, just over a month, but I like him, this is a fact. No matter what he plans to do after waking up -"
After a pause, Ye Yun raised his head and smiled, "I should say that if it is confirmed that I am really just the reincarnation of someone he fell in love with over a thousand years ago, then I will leave him after this operation is successfully completed. But no matter what, he is the person I like. I hope he can wake up soon and I hope he can live well."
"So, I want to join this operation, please help me."
The young man said sincerely.
Su Xuan was a little stunned and felt complicated.
In the end, Ye Yun joined this team.
…
The team can add one more person. The Monster Bureau of City B originally wanted to contribute, but Su Xuan suddenly remembered that his father was also a person who had lived for more than a thousand years, so he quickly held an emergency video conference and called people over.
——It was only then that Dad and the others found out that something had happened to Zong Ning. Zong Ning turned out to be a first-generation monster. Xia Yan, Qi Hanyu and Bifang, the three people who were free, all followed him, very worried about Zong Ning's condition.
After arriving here, they saw Gu Shuo sitting directly next to Su Xuan, and they were shocked and confused again.
The team members have assembled, and Yan Ningan, as the person in charge of this operation, is about to start making preparations.
First of all, according to his research and analysis, this space-time tunnel is a traversal tunnel.
After traveling through time, they naturally could not appear in front of the ancient people in this attire, but Yan Ningan was a sorcerer, so he could just use witchcraft to change their attire.
Furthermore, they had to find out what currency was used in the dynasty they were about to arrive at.
They didn't know how long it would take to solve the problem after traveling through time and space. Just in case, the currency must be figured out, and Yan Ningan might need to use witchcraft to produce it at that time.
Thirdly, everything is unknown after traveling through time, so I still need to explain what needs to be explained...
After Yuan Que learned about the situation, he drove over directly after the meeting in the company. With a sullen face, he asked Lu Tao why he had to be on the scene and what he would do if something happened. Lu Tao was overwhelmed and dragged him to the corner. He didn't know how to comfort him. After coming out, Yuan Que's mental state was much more normal. No, not really - anyway, he asked his assistant with a sullen face to postpone the work for the next two days. He would never leave the room until Lu Tao came out.
Yan Ning'an is a single man. He spent two hours on the phone with his parents before he finally convinced them to come to his senses.
Su Xuan and Gu Shuo...they were acting together anyway, so there was nothing much to say, but Su Xuan was still upset.
Ye Yun is even more so.
He was alone, and Zong Ning was asleep again.
He wiped Zong Ning's body and sat down quietly waiting.
Finally, prepare the necessary things, such as water and...food.
These guys weren't very serious either. Yan Yue had originally wanted to give them compressed biscuits, but Yan Ning'an ended up buying a bunch of instant noodles and pickled pepper chicken feet, while Ye Yun stuffed some bread and KFC. Yuan Que then filled Lu Tao's backpack with all sorts of imported food, along with a handsome photo of him. Everyone in the room ran away in disgust...
Yan Yue placed his hopeful eyes on Su Xuan and Gu Shuo.
Boss Gu is so serious, he will definitely use the compressed biscuits he prepared, right!
——Then he saw with his own eyes that Gu Shuo stuffed potatoes, Langweixian and Lay's into his backpack.
"..." Yan Yue, "Um, Boss Gu, these can't be eaten as a staple food!!"
Su Xuan stuffed a few boxes of self-heating hot pot into his bag and said without looking up, "He can just eat mine for the staple food."
Gu Shuo smiled at Yan Yue.
Yan Yue: “…………”
Thanks, I was struck.
At exactly twelve o'clock in the evening, a group of people stood in front of Zong Ning's bed.
Yan Ning'an said seriously, "The space-time tunnel should have a clear route. I will do my best to control our route and not deviate from it. However, everything ahead is unknown after all, so everyone should be prepared."
Ye Yun took a deep breath, grabbed the shoulder strap of his backpack, and nodded heavily: "Yes!"
Lu Tao comforted him, "It's okay, Xiaoyan, don't be too stressed. Just solve any problems you encounter."
Su Xuan: "That's right. Even if the route is off, just find a way to get back on track. We are here for you."
Gu Shuo: "Ah Xuan is right."
After getting ready, the five of them placed their hands on the spell on Zong Ning's left chest, with Yan Ning'an's hand at the bottom.
Yan Yue took two steps back and stood with Xia Yan, Qi Hanyu, Bi Fang, and a group of employees from the Monster Bureau of City B.
As Yan Ning'an whispered the spell, a subtle airflow gradually swirled around Zong Ning's body.
The airflow gradually expanded and grew stronger, gently ruffling the sheets hanging beside the bed, lifting the long hair of the comrades, and blowing away the documents and papers placed on the chair. As everyone held their breath, a raging wave formed, a vortex formed -
In a flash, all five people were swept in!
Su Xuan and the other four could only feel that at a certain moment their eyes went dark, and then they were like diving into an ocean whirlpool, swirling downwards continuously. The air currents vibrated so violently that their hearts seemed to be about to jump out of their chests. The suction force was simply unstoppable!
After two or three seconds, their souls suddenly fell to the ground, they opened their eyes and took a deep breath.
What comes into view is the evening glow, and under the glow... a group of faces.
That's right, a group of villagers in coarse clothes were looking down at them...
Su Xuan suddenly came to his senses, bewildered. Why was he lowering his head?!
Su Xuan shuddered, looked down, and immediately exploded:
"Woof woof woof woof?!"
——He, he turned into a dog?!
Where is the clothing we agreed to wear? How did he turn into a dog?!
Su Xuan felt as if struck by lightning, and looked to the side in disbelief - besides him, there was also a little yellow dog, a little black dog, and a little flower dog!
Next to the four dogs was a dirty little beggar!
The four dogs and one man all looked confused.
Su Xuan: "Ahhhhhhh?!" What's going on? Where is Yan Ning'an? Who is Yan Ning'an?!
The other three dogs also reacted.
The little yellow dog was terrified: "Woof woof woof?!"
The little flower dog felt guilty: "Ahhhhh?"
Little black dog: "...Woof."
The little beggar rubbed his eyes and said in confusion: "...What, what's going on..."
The next second, the little beggar was fiercely grabbed by two villagers, and the four dogs were all grabbed by the scruff of the neck.
A cross-eyed villager said in a gruff voice, "I told you that this little beggar had been stealing chickens these past few days, and you didn't believe me? Why didn't you catch him on the spot?"
Another villager with a mole between his eyebrows stood with his hands on his hips, eyebrows raised, and said, "They even brought four dogs with them to steal! Come on, come on, bring them all to Master Wang's house and let Master Wang decide what to do with them!"
"I didn't expect it was really this little beggar. I didn't believe it yesterday and spoke for him..."
"Don't underestimate this beggar's young age. He's quite cunning. I think the piglet that Old Man Li lost last year might have been stolen by this little beggar..."
"Come to think of it, I lost a shoe a few days ago..."
"Even the dog doesn't want your stinky shoes, hahahaha!"
“?!”
A group of villagers marched forward with four dogs and one man in a vigorous manner, while Su Xuan's howls resounded through the sky.
——This is definitely a deviation from the crossing route, right?!
“If we go off the track, we’ll find a way to get back on track” and so on, they were just saying polite words, but how come we really went off the track?!
Where is Zong Ning?!
