Chapter 225

Although they are both old men, he is different from the one from the Plant Clan. Or rather, he is different from all the underground people. He actually has an eye on his forehead that looks like Erlang Shen!

This eye is no different from a human eye, but it is larger and occupies half of the forehead. It can be seen that this eye can see things, and the eyeball is staring at Su Bei who just came in.

Su Bei reacted quickly and pointed to the earphone in his hand. He was sure that the other party knew what it was.

Sure enough, the old man nodded kindly and motioned for him to put it on. After confirming that he should have the ability to monitor with shielding headphones, Su Bei put on the headphones and smiled to ease the atmosphere: "I thought that living underground for a long time would cause my eyes to degenerate, but I didn't expect to see such beautiful eyes."

"You are such a sweet-talker." Hearing his words, the old patriarch smiled faintly, "Are you looking for them because you know why they are looking for me?"

"No, I came to him because I thought what they were going to do would be interesting." The chief's words sounded a bit confusing, but Su Bei understood them. But he was not sure why these two people came to see the chief.

If it was someone else, they were either trying to understand the history of the underground people or looking for a way back to the surface. But if it was someone from the Black Flash organization, Su Bei felt that they had another purpose.

Cyril looked innocent and shook his head: "You seem to have some misunderstanding about us. We just want to come and pay a visit to the chieftain."

"If I believed you, then I really had a misunderstanding about you." Su Bei found a chair and sat down, answering with a chuckle.

Perhaps because he knew that they were all comic book characters, he never showed any vigilance or disgust towards the people of the Black Flash organization. Similarly, he would not show much respect to the bigwigs of the decent organization.

Cyril didn't comment on his words, but he didn't mean to chase him away. He turned his head and looked at the patriarch again: "What do you think of my suggestion just now?"

"It's not a big deal. Change will eventually lead to destruction." The patriarch refused without hesitation, "Go away and don't come again."

"Why are you like that? I'm inviting you sincerely." Cyril complained in a disgruntled manner, "You may not understand me. I'm the type who won't stop until I achieve my goal."

He said the threatening words with an innocent look on his face. Su Bei's eyes fell on Cyril's face, wondering what he had invited the patriarch to do.

Suddenly he felt a gaze, and turned around to see that it was Li Xiang next to him. Li Xiang glanced at him calmly with his calm red eyes, then turned his gaze back to the clan leader: "Some things are probably beyond your control."

Being threatened by two people one after another, even the clan leader, no matter how well-mannered he was, couldn't help but frown: "If I remember correctly, this is my territory, right? How do you have the courage to threaten me on my territory?"

"Of course it's because you can't do anything to us~" Cyril finally exposed his bad nature at this time, "We already know how to get in here."

Speaking of this, Su Bei actually guessed a little. If Cyril had not lied before, and these people really came to the underground world after an earthquake, then their falling into this space and the way the underground people discovered this space had one thing in common - that was an earthquake.

If you fall from the stage when the ground shakes violently like an earthquake, you may enter the underground world.

This threat was indeed very effective. The psychic tribe leader was silent for a while before speaking: "Let me think about it. Please go back first."

After successfully getting the other party to back down, Cyril did not press on, but took a step back: "Then I will wait for good news."

After saying that, he looked at Su Bei and tilted his head: "Do you want to go with us?"

"The clan leader and I hit it off right away and we'd like to chat for a while." Su Bei lied with his eyes closed.

Although she knew he was talking nonsense, Cyril was too lazy to care about him and left the room with Li Xiang. After using her mental power to confirm that they had completely left, Su Bei asked directly: "They want you to join the 'Black Flash' organization?"

The old patriarch sighed and had no intention of hiding this matter: "To be precise, he wanted to bring my people to join his organization."

"Then why are you so resistant?" Su Bei asked curiously. If he could return to the ground, it wouldn't be a bad thing. Cyril couldn't tell him that his organization was a villain organization hated by everyone on the ground. If he just thought it was a scientific research organization that wanted to absorb him, there was no need for the old patriarch to worry so much.

Hearing this question, the chief looked at him and hesitated for a while. Just when Su Bei was about to change the question, he finally spoke up: "It's meaningless to hide it now, I'll tell you directly. A long time ago, we received a prophecy that we must not let the people who fell from above leave, otherwise we will face a catastrophe of extinction."

So that's it! After hearing this, Su Bei finally understood why the people here decided to let them stay and start acting as soon as they saw them. It turned out that it was a prophecy.

"Then why did you tell me this?" Su Bei frowned. Logically speaking, unless they all decided to stay, such a prophecy should never be told to them.

The clan leader gave a bitter smile and said, "Do you think I can stop those two people? I only need to put a prophecy there and it will be broken. It doesn't matter whether I tell you or not."

That was true. It was impossible for Cyril and the others to be trapped here. Although the super powers were blocked in the underground world and the super power props could not be used, Su Bei had an inexplicable intuition that even without the resurrection props, Cyril and Li Xiang were not afraid of the people here at all.

"Since you think you can't stop them, why not just put us on board?" He said lazily, "Like you said, too many lice don't itch, and too many debts don't worry."

This was completely a case of taking advantage of nothing. The old patriarch rolled his eyes and said, "I told you this prophecy because I want you to help us think of a solution, not to take advantage of me."

They certainly have no other solution. If they could think of a solution, they would have thought of it long ago. Why should they be on alert when encountering outsiders?

"Why did you tell me specifically?" Su Bei suddenly became a little alert. He was not one of the protagonists. How could he know such a crucial clue?

Hearing this question, the old man rolled his eyes again: "Because you were here first."

Su Bei: "..."

Well, he was just being sentimental. Su Bei pouted and stood up: "You should tell other people about this, they might be more interested."

Compared with him, the protagonists have a much higher chance of solving this problem. Since the needs and requirements to leave here have been revealed, I guess this story won't last too long. I just don't know what other twists and turns there will be during this period. He has to find a safe place to take refuge.

"By the way, let me remind you." As he was about to reach the door, Su Bei suddenly turned around, his purple eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, "That 'Black Flash' is a cult organization that everyone hates. Don't trust them too much."

As he walked out of the door, he suddenly sneered. I thought he didn't see it. Although the old man rejected Cyril righteously and tried to delay time, Su Bei was sure that his determination to reject the "Black Flash" organization was not as firm as it seemed.

Since the patriarch told him the truth just now, he would definitely tell Cyril and the others. After all, the current situation is that he must solve this problem, otherwise the entire underground human race will surely die.

After knowing this, Cyril would definitely promise to help them solve the problem. Therefore, the patriarch would definitely be tempted. However, he could not immediately believe Cyril's big cake, so he temporarily refused and told Su Bei the news.

The main point is that eggs cannot be placed in the same basket.

There is nothing wrong with this, but the other party he is pinning his hopes on is from the Black Flash organization, which is a bit tricky.

Su Bei was not sure what the "disaster of the top" mentioned in the prophecy meant, but he felt that it was closely related to the "Black Flash" organization. If such a villain organization could not use the underground people for its own benefit, could it allow them to join the government and become the opposite of itself? No matter how you think about it, it is unlikely.

Because he himself is a destiny-related psychic, and he also has a good friend who is a prophet, Su Bei often reads relevant information and has a good understanding of prophecy.

The crisis in the prophecy did not appear out of thin air, there must be some normal logic. It is impossible for a nuclear bomb to explode and kill them as soon as they left. From a logical point of view, their catastrophe is likely related to the people who were released.

The twelve people who fell in this wave can be divided into two groups. The two people in the "Black Flash" organization are called the villain group, and the rest of the people are called the good group.

There are three possible explanations for the extinction of the underground humans: The first is that the decent government cannot tolerate them and secretly killed these aliens. The second is that the villain "Black Flash" organization is interested in something about the underground humans and conducts research on them, leading to their extinction. The third is that the two forces are against each other, and the fish that survive in the gap are affected.

The first guess is absolutely impossible because this is a comic book world. Based on his impression of the comic book "The King of Superpowers", the government is still quite just in it, so it will not do such a thing.

The latter two may be related to the Black Flash organization.

So considering that the old patriarch had told him the key information, Su Bei reminded him. As for whether the other party would believe it or not, that was not something he had to consider, since it was not him who was exterminated anyway.

There is still some time before lunch, so Su Bei plans to go for a walk first.

He was thinking as he walked. He didn't ask how to leave here just now. After all, even if he asked, the other party would definitely not answer. But from his probing, it can be seen that these people definitely know how to make them leave.

Since there is a way to leave, Jiang Tianming and the others should be able to find it, so he doesn't need to worry too much. If they can meet by chance, it would be the best. If they can't meet, it doesn't matter, anyway, they can always get out. The only thing that Su Bei is more worried about now is that Cyril and the others have not completely let them go, and they want to make trouble even in the underground world.

Or when they finally get out, they suddenly deliver a fatal blow.

Although judging from their behavior just now, they don't seem to be going to attack Su Bei. But sometimes it's not necessary to target someone to cause harm. What if Cyril and the old patriarch are fighting and someone else gets hurt?

Thinking of this, Su Bei glanced at his destiny compass, then raised his eyebrows and showed a surprised expression. His big hand was fine, but the little hand was very far to the left!

In other words, his luck is extremely good now!

Su Bei said how he was able to catch up with the important plot just now, it turned out that he was lucky. It was rare to have such good luck, so he must take this opportunity to have a good look around. With this luck, it feels like just walking around can trigger an event.

Just as Su Bei was thinking this, he ran into Lan Subing and his group. At this time, the two of them plus Zheng Caige were about to walk towards the psychic tribe's hall, and the two sides met in the narrow corridor.

"Su Bei, why are you here?" Wu Mingbai asked in surprise.

Looking at the two of them, Su Bei thought for a moment and replied, "I went to chat with the leader of the psychic tribe. He's a very interesting old man. I suggest you chat with him as well."

What he said was quite meaningful. He pushed the clue right in their faces. If they still couldn't understand even though the food was already in their mouths, then it was not his fault. After Su Bei finished speaking, he didn't care about their reactions. He politely nodded to Chong Aiga and left first.

Unfortunately, his good fortune seemed to only occur when he ran into Cyril and the other two chatting with the old patriarch, and nothing happened to Sundu afterwards. But in a sense, who can say that this is not a good thing?"

After wandering around until noon, everyone gathered in the restaurant. However, surprisingly, Huangfu Mingzhe and Zuzong did not come back. They both had cell phones, so it was impossible for them to miss the time, so something must have happened.

But to be honest, no one was too worried about them. First, Huangfu Mingzhe's strength was obvious to all, and second, their ancestors had secretly told them that although this underground world restricted their superpowers, he could still use them once.

In other words, if he encountered danger, he could use the [Arena] to take him and Huangfu Mingzhe inside, which was almost 100% safe. Their disappearance now might be because they were in danger and hid themselves. In addition, without any clues, people were not in a hurry to find them.

Jiang Tianming motioned for everyone to take off their headphones and put them in the next room, then returned to preside over the meeting: "Let's ignore the ancestors for now. Let me first tell you about my discovery. The way to leave the underground world should only be known by the chiefs of each tribe. But we don't necessarily have to get the answer from them in person. We are not the only ones who want to find the exit of the underground world. There is also a group of young people who also want to return to the surface."

"In addition, we found a living human on the ground. She fell down in an earthquake more than ten years ago. At that time, she wanted to return to the ground, but encountered the same situation as Qiao Mu and the others. In the end, she had no choice but to become an underground person and live here for a long time." Si Zhaohua then said another discovery.

Everyone became excited after hearing the information. A former human on Earth who had stayed here for more than ten years should have a lot of information. If she was willing to reveal it, maybe she could help them find a way out.

Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Jiang Tianming broke their fantasy without hesitation: "But she only said that we can't go up at all and let us live here well. As for other things, she didn't say anything. Even if Wu Jin helped, she only warned us that if we want to survive, we should tell those people that we want to stay, but in the end she didn't tell us why."

"We may know this." Lan Subing raised her hand weakly, and Wu Mingbai beside her explained to her, "We learned from the leader of the psychic tribe that they once had a prophecy that once someone came to the underground world, the entire underground world would suffer a catastrophe of destruction."

After saying this, he looked at Su Bei and said, "Su Bei should have known about this."

Su Bei did not deny it, nodded and told another piece of information: "Cyril and the others should also know about it. In addition, they invited the psychic tribe leader to lead his people to join the 'Black Flash' organization."

Hearing this, Si Zhaohua said proudly: "Then why don't we invite him too? My family can negotiate with the government to accept them. Even if the government doesn't agree, we can still afford to support some people."

"Does the 'tribe members' here refer to the psychic tribe or everyone in the entire underground world?" Jiang Tianming noticed a strange point.

Su Bei had never noticed this problem before, and naturally did not ask the clan leader. Jiang Tianming's words also reminded him, yes, who exactly did the "Black Flash" organization invite?

If it is everyone in the underground world, then why did they invite these people? If it is only the psychics, what should the other tribes do?

I always feel like there is a piece of key information missing.

Si Zhaohua didn't care much about his focus: "No matter who they want to invite, we just need to benchmark them."

"But the problem is, we still have to solve the prophecy problem." Wu Mingbai frowned and said, "As long as we leave, they will face a catastrophe. This is not a problem that can be solved by who accepts them."

"A Bing, I understand. Can you repeat the prophecy that the patriarch told you?" Jiang Tianming suddenly asked.

"Let me say, 'When the people on the earth return to the earth, that will be the day when the people underground will perish.'" Wu Mingbai repeated the prophecy exactly as it was said. "This is what the patriarch said, the original words of our ancestor."

It sounded fine, but it felt like something was wrong. However, before Jiang Tianming could come up with anything specific, there was a sudden noise of footsteps outside, as if a large group of people were approaching quickly.

Soon the group of people came to the door and knocked, and Zheng Caige's voice rang out: "Are you in there?"

Jiang Tianming replied "Yes", then walked over, opened the door, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Before Cai Ge could answer, the large group of underground people behind her rushed in. After looking around, they looked at each other as if they had confirmed something. One of them asked angrily, "I remember that there were twelve of you who fell down. Why are there only a few of you here?"

"Two people are in the infirmary, two did not come with us at the beginning, and two others are missing today." Jiang Tianming answered clearly, and then repeated his previous question, "What happened?"

The ponytailed man who had spoken earlier sneered: "We just found two people dead at home. They had no grudges against anyone else. It must be you outsiders who killed them!"

"Where's the evidence?" Wu Mingbai asked innocently, "On earth, if we want to accuse someone, we need evidence. Don't we need it underground?"

If he only asked where the evidence was, the ponytail man could have directly used the excuse "What evidence do you need? Only you could have committed the murder" to force the man to take him away. But Wu understood that this involved a comparison between the customs of the aboveworld and the underworld, which made it difficult for them to act.

In short, they also want to save face. If they really take action now, wouldn't it be tantamount to implicitly admitting that the laws of their underground world are not as perfect as those of the aboveground world? Although this will not cause any substantial damage, everyone will feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, Zheng Caige coughed to signal the ponytailed man to step back, and then said with embarrassment: "Actually, I don't want to doubt you, but now it is indeed you who are the most suspicious. If you can find the murderer, I will let them apologize to you. But if not... I'm sorry, the family of the deceased also needs a result."

This time, Wu Mingbai did not refute it, saying things like innocent until proven guilty or refusing to testify. After all, this was the territory of the underground humans, and knowing that they had great ill intentions towards him, it would not work to just reason with them.

In fact, they can still talk calmly now, thanks to the fact that most of the underground people still have a certain sense of good and evil. Otherwise, just looking at the prophecy, they could have killed everyone at the beginning.

Compared with the lives of a few strangers, the lives of the entire family are of course more important.

"No problem, take us to see the deceased first." Jiang Tianming agreed immediately, and everyone followed the team to the crime scene.

On the way, Lan Subing thought of another question. After whispering to Jiang Tianming, Jiang Tianming asked: "Don't your psychics have the ability to communicate with all kinds of people? Can you communicate with the souls of the dead and ask who killed them?"

Hearing this, Cai Ge shook her head helplessly and fearfully: "We have summoned the souls of several dead people and asked them, but they know nothing. It can be said that they died inexplicably."

The two dead people were a couple. They were found dead in the hall of the Mud Tribe. But the strange thing was that they had no wounds on their bodies, and the members of the Grass Tribe did not see any signs of poisoning. It seemed like they died suddenly.

This kind of examination of the dead is the domain of Jiang Tianming and his two companions. In the first season of the comics, they often encountered dead people while investigating cases, so they are familiar with all the processes.

Su Bei was observing the destiny compasses above everyone's head. There was nothing wrong with everyone's compasses, but everyone's pinky needles were tilted to the right, as if the god of bad luck was hovering over the hall.

Most people's little fingers tend to lean to the left. If it leans to the right like this, there must be some hidden problem.

Title: After I Became the Young Master Who Scumbag the Boss

Author: Listen to the Wind on the String

Copywriter:

1.

After being transformed into the young master of a scumbag black-bellied boss, Chi Er said that he really wanted to cry.

Although he has not read the original novel, he has heard others discuss that Chi Er in the original novel is a cannon fodder who acts recklessly because the male protagonist has a little liking for him.

Later, the male protagonist's white moonlight came back, and Chi Er discovered that he was actually a substitute. The reason why the male protagonist tolerated him for so long was entirely for the white moonlight.

Chi Er, who was arrogant and proud, refused to admit that she was being used as a substitute. She took the initiative to break up with the male protagonist and had an argument with Bai Yueguang.

The two pushed each other on the stairs for a while, and Chier lost his balance and fell down, becoming an idiot and being offline forever.

2.

And now, at the time point when Chi Er traveled to, there is less than a year left before the male protagonist's white moonlight returns to his side.

"Do you want me to pick out the pits for the peeled lychees you ordered?"

"Do you still want me to carry you out today?"

Looking at the lychees peeled by the male protagonist, Chi Er felt a dull pain at the back of his head.

Seeing that the male lead was about to squat beside him and carry him, Chi Er pushed the male lead away and said, "It seems that we are not suitable."

Male protagonist:

Later, Chier discovered that... the direction of the book seemed to be different from what he heard.
