Searching for "Jiang Yuanshi" (11)
Countless blue threads wrapped around Jiang Yuanshi's body, finally weaving into a complete human figure.
The moment the system sound ended, the blue figure separated from the person on the bed, floated up, and opened its eyes.
"So, this is my new soul?"
The blue figure asked the dark red line on his wrist, but received no answer.
Only the human figure didn't have five joints, so he pointed with his oven-mitten-shaped hands.
No response.
“…”
"Hey, I didn't ask you any century-old questions, so why are you pretending to be dead again? Z01? Jiang Zhi? Well, it seems my boyfriend is dead, which is great. I can find a new love."
"Human law prohibits looking for a third party in a relationship. That's called cheating."
"Oh, but you just ignored me. I thought you were dead."
"…I'm sorry, I'm just analyzing the problem."
Jiang Yuanshi floated in the air, circling on the ceiling like a fish, and asked, "What's the problem?"
Z01 replied: "My mission did not show success."
"So you suspect I'm from a parallel world too, and that's why you ignore me?"
"No, I was just wondering why you didn't agree to pass the mission."
The blue wandering soul was stunned and asked in confusion, "I'm not a god, how can I control the mission?"
Z01: "Didn't you give me this mission?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "Yeah, but it's not that I don't want to agree, it's just that the time hasn't come yet. I made a deal with Lord God 404. He said that when the time is right, the mission can be completed naturally, but the premise is that we can enter the final world, so I agreed without thinking too much. We're going to die anyway, so I might as well take a gamble before I die."
Z01: "What you said makes sense. Besides... I have another question for you."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Hmm? Ask."
"Excuse me, is your death due to my appearance? Because I disrupted your life."
Jiang Yuanshi raised an eyebrow, finally understanding why this guy had been silent for a long time, and even refused to show up. He sighed and said, "Isn't the system most proud of data? When did it become so emotional? And it can't be because of you, right? After all, I met you because I was dying. Don't give me that nonsense. The Möbius strip and the timeline, you should have seen it. Without your intervention, I would have died long ago in those parallel worlds. And in this world, maybe my original ending was to be burned to death. You saved me and let me come to the Book Transmigration Bureau, and then... if it succeeds, maybe we will become immortals?"
The host's words were still shocking, which made Z01 feel very relieved. The black and red line extended in front of Jiang Yuanshi and formed a black and red human figure. The blue man poked the black and red guy, and it felt cool like a hand reached into the water.
Jiang Yuanshi: "Where's your face?"
Z01: "Growing, and so are you."
Jiang Yuanshi let out an "oh" and turned his featureless face towards the other person, getting closer and closer. When their faces touched, he exclaimed, "Wow, my hand hurts! Did you eat my hand?"
The blue figure reached into the chest of the black and red figure and was soaking in it to cool down when he suddenly felt a pain and his hand was broken off. The missing part was still inside the black and red figure's body and seemed to be being digested.
Z01 glanced down, then silently raised a hand and stretched it out in front of Jiang Yuanshi. Jiang Yuanshi asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"
"Give me back your hand."
"I want my natural hand, not yours, and you're putting it near my mouth. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You're really good at eating and taking things at the same time."
“…”
The black and red human figure didn't speak, but there was a coil wrapped around its head. The coils were getting bigger and bigger, and the person was getting smaller and smaller. It was about to become a complete coil. Jiang Yuanshi was speechless for a moment, grabbed the other person's hand with the heat-insulating glove, and took a big bite.
Z01's hand was missing a large part, with neat teeth marks on it. Jiang Yuan was chewing on it when he saw the other party forming another heart. Unable to bear the sight, he simply reached out and took it off, chewing a hole in the heart.
"What are you doing?"
"I'll give you an iPhone."
"?" There was still a generation gap between the alien system and humans, and Jiang Yuanshi did not explain. Z01, who was currently unable to connect to the Internet, was confused. However, he could use the Internet of this world. The black and red silk thread stretched out from his body and drilled into the hospital computer through the gap. He began to search. After getting the answer, Z01 said: "You can't chew the phone."
"Huh? You knew that so quickly?" Jiang Yuanshi was still chewing on the heart. "It's okay, I'm just chewing on the logo. It's an exclusive product of Jiang Yuanshi."
"But you look like you're almost done."
"Well, it's delicious after all."
Jiang Yuanshi turned his eyes away and continued chewing. A heart of love floated over, and soon another one. When Jiang Yuanshi turned his head, he was overwhelmed by the love, and the whole ward was affected.
Where on earth did all that energy come from? Jiang Yuanshi was so overwhelmed by the love that he was at a loss for words. It took him a long time to come out of it. He grabbed Z01's non-existent collar and asked when he had recovered.
Z01 answered honestly, "When you were ten, I devoured the powerful resentment you generated. Plus, you made a promise to me. Our souls are already connected, so the wishes and resentment you radiate are amplified a billion times."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Add to that the wish power you transferred to me, so it's equal to 10 billion times two?"
Z01 shook his head. "The wishes and resentments from before should have been mostly offset. After all, I did lose over two-thirds of my strength before. My current strength mainly comes from you."
Jiang Yuanshi opened his nonexistent mouth, feeling as if his brain cells were dying. He boldly imagined: "Could it be that I really become Yuan?"
Z01: "It's possible. After all, you can eat me now. We can eat each other. To some extent, we can be considered enemies."
"Enemy..." Jiang Yuanshi silently nibbled a piece of heart, then slowly said, "In that case, can we not kiss each other anymore? That's not right, we don't even have the face to do it now."
Z01:?
So that's the point?
But it is indeed a problem.
Jiang Yuanshi thought to himself, "If we kiss together in the future, wouldn't it be like we're biting each other while we kiss? Every time we kiss, we both lose a head."
The thought of two people kissing and then turning into headless people is really outrageous.
But there is no good solution at the moment, after all, the task has not been completed yet.
The two souls lingering in the last world were floating around in Jiang Yuanshi's ward, like the spiral devices used to repel mosquitoes in the vegetable market. The patients on the beds had weak but steady vital signs, as if they were hanging on to their last breath, all wrapped up like mummies. Jiang Yuanshi didn't care about his own flesh and blood at all, and just kept eating on the ceiling.
The patient was critically ill last night and had lost vital signs, but after a few minutes his heart started beating again, which scared the doctors. It was a medical miracle and everyone was overjoyed. The only ones who were unhappy were Jiang Yuanshi's parents. They looked at the person inside through the glass with expressionless faces.
Z01 was always paying attention to the other party. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked Jiang Yuan: "Are you going to do anything?"
Jiang Yuanshi, enjoying Z01's special love, asked a questioning "Hmm?" in a very carefree manner. This puzzled Z01, who seemed to be completely oblivious to his parents' existence. Jiang Yuanshi seemed to understand Z01's thoughts and replied, "You mean I saved them, but they locked me in the car and turned their backs on me. They even slandered me before I died. Why don't I seek revenge now?"
"Yes, they should be punished, it was intentional homicide."
"It's a pity that there were no cameras on the highway that day, and there were no other cars, so there is no evidence, but--" Jiang Yuanshi floated to the glass and looked at his parents who were lying on the hospital bed. The couple looked very bad, but they still pretended to be moved.
Jiang Yuanshi smiled and continued, "But they were probably too anxious. When they asked someone to remove my oxygen tube last night, they came along too. They were so sad to see me die that they forgot to transfer the money in my bank card to their own account. That was really sad. The bank card in my name is my money. I accidentally made a will and donated it all. They can't get a penny."
Z01: “But they used your money to buy a house and a car before.”
"Hmm... I guess we'll have to pay for it then. Honestly, it's very strange. Maybe it's because your soul is connected to mine. I seem to have a lot of memories from parallel worlds. If that's really the case, their ending in this world won't be much better. Or maybe even worse."
As Jiang Yuanshi spoke, Z01 blinked calmly and said bluntly, "You've seen me as a child, so you should know I'm not a good person. I'd do anything to get them to care about me. Of course, once I really no longer desire their love, I will only do more immoral things, like putting some evidence in the notarized will of them abusing animals, cheating on each other, plagiarizing other people's papers, bullying students and accepting expensive gifts, etc. That's all I've been saving up bit by bit since I was a child. Oh, and my former gaming partner's money, they did take it from this world. He came to see me before I died, and I told him to figure it out. I can accept it."
"Anyway, they've done a lot of bad things. Although they won't go to jail, at least they won't continue to harm students as teachers."
While Jiang Yuanshi was speaking, his eyes occasionally turned to where his mother's hand was touching. Z01 floated over and blocked Jiang Yuanshi's sight. Jiang Yuanshi looked up at the other person, his face as smooth as the bottom of a pot, which was quite funny.
Jiang Yuanshi did laugh, and said as he laughed: "Honestly, I still can't help but have expectations for them. I clearly saw them standing outside the door watching someone come in and pull out my oxygen tube, but I didn't expect the reason was because they had a new child..."
Jiang Yuanshi couldn't help but look at his mother's belly, where a new life was growing, and his mother's expression was more gentle than ever before. That night, Jiang Yuanshi wanted to struggle with the stranger, but perhaps because he was really dying, his hearing became exceptionally good, and he heard his parents talking about the training plan for the next child through the glass.
They said, "Now that we have a good life, we can take better care of the child. It doesn't matter whether the baby is a boy or a girl, as long as the baby is happy, that's all that matters."
As long as the children are happy.
What a niche word! Jiang Yuanshi had never heard of it before, nor had he ever been treated like this.
That day he instantly lost his strength and allowed his fate to go to destruction.
“…”
"You don't need to feel guilty about that kid. After all, he's spending your money."
Z01 carefully reached out and touched the other person's head, saying seriously, "If this mission is successful and you can return to this world, I hope you will allow me to expose their actions without you having to bear any responsibility."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't say anything. He just slowly leaned his head on the other's shoulder and murmured, "What about you? What will you bear?"
Z01 brazenly declared, "I'm not human, so I don't bear the consequences of human karma. Besides, I didn't harm that life in any way. The punishment the couple received was their own fault. Human society might not sentence you because you're blood relatives. If that happens, we'll still lose. They'll just lose your money, while you'll lose your life."
"Pfft..." Jiang Yuanshi couldn't help laughing when he heard the last part. He snuggled into Z01's arms and whispered, "I'm in a bad mood now. I want to eat you."
"OK."
"You can eat me too."
"OK."
Above the ward, two souls of different colors dissolved into each other and were reborn, reborn and dissolved again, never separating.
As the two souls intertwined, cracks appeared in the ceiling, and everything in the scene instantly shattered into pieces. As the world turned blank again, a crack appeared in the sky, and a voice rang out:
[Beep——]
[Mission: Finding "Jiang Yuanshi" has been completed]
[New mission——beep.]
【Task Pause】
[Today is... God-Slaying Day]
