The cold sense of humor from the Chosen One of Death did not make the scene funny, but instead made it cold and awkward.
Cheng Shi looked Zhang Jiuzu up and down, his face full of confusion. He always felt that there was something wrong with the squinting old Zhang today.
But he couldn't tell what was wrong with the other party, so he rolled his eyes and decided to give it a try.
He repeatedly extended the topic to the history of Rediker and discussed it with the Dragon King. In the middle of the discussion, he suddenly turned to Zhang Jizu and asked, "What do the historical school think about this?"
Zhang Jizu was stunned, and immediately understood what Cheng Shi meant. He knew that the other party was overthinking it. He felt helpless, but he had to prove his identity, so he narrowed his eyes and said:
“Prudence means looking at the development of things with a conservative and cautious attitude and dealing with unknown risks, rather than being paranoid all the time, which will only waste energy.
I know what you are thinking, but I am not Zhen Xin, let alone Zhen Yi.
How could Cheng Shi believe this? A liar would never admit that he was a liar. Even if he did, it would definitely be to prepare a bigger scam. He didn't believe a word that Lao Zhang said, but since the other party had pointed it out, he just said:
"Then try saying 'hee'?"
“…”
Zhang Jiuzu's face was slightly stiff. He tried to hold it in for a long time, and even the veins on his neck were popping out, but he still couldn't get out a "hi".
Seeing this, Cheng Shi finally believed that the person standing in front of him was indeed Mi Lao Zhang.
But he was even more curious.
"Why are you acting so strangely today? Is there something you can't say? Did that master forbid you from speaking?"
It wasn't Death who silenced me, it was another benefactor...
But in fact, He did not forbid me to tell the truth. I was just afraid that when I told everything, He would replace me with a "tool man" to make the plan. In this way, I would lose the opportunity of foresight and would no longer be able to "predict" risks for everyone, thus putting the Clown in an unstable situation.
Zhang Jizu thought so and shook his head silently.
The scammers present were undoubtedly sharp-eyed. When they couldn't get anything out of their questions, Cheng Shi and the Dragon King knew that their will must be mixed behind Mi Lao Zhang.
As for who it is, the relationship between the gods is complicated and it is hard to say.
However, Cheng Shi was not a person who would hesitate. When he knew that Lao Zhang had something to hide, he decisively skipped the topic and told the Dragon King about the Black Dragon King.
He did not choose to tell the Covenant of the Gods about the fall of [Annihilation], but only said that he happened to meet the [Sin of Desirelessness] Drasilko and heard the voice of the Dragon King from his mouth.
Li Jingming had already guessed the identity of Nightmare from the letter, and was not surprised at what Cheng Shi said. He was more curious about how the other party could hide in the nightmare.
Is this a form of imprisonment or a spontaneous hiding?
Seeing the Dragon King's solemn expression, Cheng Shi knew that he also had no idea about the matter. He thought for a moment and decided to leak some more information. He told the two people present about the memory garbage dump in his nightmare. He knew that although this was the passage to connect to the Flame of Hope and should not be known to more people, he also knew that if he wanted to see the Flame of Hope, he had to rely on the Flame of Hope to summon it outside the Wuyimeng Mirror.
This depends on the choice of Flame of Hope, so it is relatively safe.
At this time, he needed the Dragon King and the Clown, who understood memory the best, to help him pay attention to the Black Dragon King's affairs, so he selectively shared some of what he saw and heard in the mirror.
When Li Jingming heard that there was a memory dump abandoned by [memory] in that dream and nightmare, his pupils suddenly shrank and he said in surprise:
"You really did lie to me."
Cheng Shi curled his lips and said, "Tsk, you talk as if you didn't lie to me."
Li Jingming was stunned when he heard the voice and fell silent.
Now, it was Cheng Shi's turn to have his pupils shrink suddenly. His face darkened and he pointed at the Dragon King's nose and cursed:
"You really lied to me?
What a believer in [Memory], have you read through everyone's memories?!
Otherwise, why are you feeling guilty?
I thought you were just kindly reminding me, but it turns out you were feeling guilty, right? Tell me, what did you see?"
Zhang Jizu was also curious for a moment. He looked at the Dragon King, but saw Li Jingming looking at him and then at Cheng Shi, and said slowly:
"What do you want me to say?"
“…”
This question was well-posed. Cheng Shi frowned slightly, thinking that even if the other party had read all his memories, he couldn't ask directly with a third person present. So, evil thoughts welled up in his heart, thinking that he couldn't be the only one to suffer the loss, so he asked:
"Tell us what we don't know. It's a bit too much for you to eat alone, but if I have a share of this 'meal', I can keep it a secret for you."
Li Jingming smiled and shook his head:
"If you're willing to let me share your memories, I can share them with the person involved, if I agree.
But if you want me to tell you about someone else's past...
no.
If I say even a little more about other people's past at this time, it would not only be irresponsible to the parties involved, but also a stain on the memories of both of you.
You have to know that if I can talk about Zhen Xin in front of you, I can also talk about you in front of Zhen Xin.
Respect is mutual; it is the prerequisite for cherishing the memory of a friend."
"Oh, what a mutual respect! You didn't even ask us before recording these memories, but now you've written them down in one go and are showing respect for us.
This is not respect. To forget these memories is the real respect."
Cheng Shi was pointing and cursing when he saw Li Jingming take out a tube of remembrance from somewhere, smiled at the two people present and said:
