Chapter 72: The Ultimate Secret

In the illusory and fuzzy dreamland, the night seems to be endless, and under the cover of deep and opaque black, all the scenery is just passing shadows.

Luo Xingyi found that he was being held tightly by Qu Lin, running on a narrow road that was the only luminous body.

But for some reason, this road is so long, they have been running non-stop for a long time, but they still seem to be standing still, and the surrounding scenery is always the same.

Tick, something dripped on the ground.

Luo Xingyi turned around by accident, and found that there were batches of zombies transformed from newly dead people behind him. They hadn't decomposed yet, and he could clearly see the appearance of every face and the clothes they were wearing.

Teachers, classmates, team members, owners of stores he likes to patronize, unknown citizens who may have passed him by...

They said, "Stop!"

And beside the dark road, familiar figures began to appear.

Mo Yu, whose chest was cut open, said, "Brother Xingyi, I'm in so much pain."

Mo Qi, with blood and tears in his eyes, said, "Brother Xingyi, why didn't you save my sister?"

Ji Shuyao said: "Luo Xingyi, you owe me this! You owe me!"

"Don't run, don't go, stay, be like us...you should become like us..."

There were more and more chaotic voices in his ears, and Luo Xingyi couldn't help but clenched Qu Lin's hand, only to find that his hand was bloody.He suddenly looked down, Qu Lin's blood flowed all the way, dyeing the whole road in dazzling red!

Suddenly, rumbling artillery fire sounded, and a group of heavily armed troops descended from the sky, intercepting the two of them.

"We have to take Qu Lin back."

"Take him back."

"The experiment must continue."

"No! Don't take him away!"

Luo Xingyi yelled, but was pushed to the ground by the zombies chasing behind him, and painfully tore his and Qu Lin's clasped hands away.He tried his best to reach out and crawl forward, but found in despair that no matter how hard he tried, the distance between himself and Qu Lin was getting farther and farther...

The world is flooded with blood.

"Do not--"

Luo Xingyi opened his eyes suddenly, and what appeared in front of his eyes were rolling bubbles.

His memory still stayed before the sudden stop before the fall, feeling that his throat was dry and about to burn, and he instinctively took a big breath of air.

But after inhaling, he realized that it was not air that was poured into his mouth and nose, but a large amount of bitter potion, which choked the unprepared him half to death, and coughed up more bubbles in the water.

In the cold water, strings of bubbles rose violently like boiling. After Luo Xingyi choked a few mouthfuls in the water, he quickly held his breath and adjusted his state to adapt to the liquid environment.The oxygen content in the water is extremely high, and he can breathe directly without drowning him. After the initial bubbles gradually disappeared, Luo Xingyi blinked, regained consciousness from the nightmare, and saw the environment he was in clearly.

This is a piece of green liquid with 80% transparency, and everything from the outside world appears shadowy when illuminated through this piece of green.

A small air bubble leaked from the corner of Luo Xingyi's mouth and rose gently. He floated in the water for two seconds, thinking: Is this nutrient solution?

As if to confirm his conjecture, Luo Xingyi stretched out his right hand forward, and sure enough, he touched a solid and transparent wall halfway up his arm.He curled up his fingers and tapped it, as if he was evaluating whether he still had the ability to smash it with a single punch, but in the next second, a line of eye-catching red text lit up on the cover:

[Sir, the repair treatment of nanorobots has not been completed yet, please stay calm. 】

?

Luo Xingyi withdrew his fingers and hammered the wall cover.Take it easy, don't be impatient, I want to see Qu Lin!

[Sir, the nanorobot restoration treatment has not been completed yet, please stay calm. 】

Immediately, the mechanical voice reminded him coldly: "Please do not use violence to open the repair cabin. The treatment is about to end. Estimated time: 05:49."

Seeing the siren, Luo Xingyi was suddenly reminded of his current situation, stopped his movements, and did not make any more moves.

He is still in a state of complete loss of powers. Apart from knowing that he is receiving treatment in the repair cabin, he knows nothing about the outside world. If the equipment alarms and attracts armed personnel, it will really end badly.

Luo Xingyi stuck to the bi-shade, carefully looked outside through the green liquid, and did not see the second repair cabin-like object.Depending on the situation, Qu Lin probably isn't here, and he doesn't know where he is going. He has to survive first before he can talk about looking for someone.

So Luo Xingyi began to float in the water and think, if someone comes later, is he pretending to lose his memory to lower the other party's vigilance?Or pretend to be insane?

It's a pity that he thought seriously for a minute, but his superb acting skills were not put to use.Because until the repair was completed, a group of people in white coats who didn't know whether they were medical staff or experimenters released him from the repair cabin, re-dressed him, tested the basic values, and then took him to another place... He didn't ask him a word during the whole process, he was fast and silent, and he was not given a chance to perform at all.

When Luo Xingyi came back to his senses, he was already in another room.It really doesn't make much sense to pretend to be stupid.

After the medical staff retreated quickly and low-key, Luo Xingyi was the only one left in the room. It was empty, with standard living room furniture, pretending that he was not an office.There are no guards inside and outside, and there are no surveillance cameras visible to the naked eye. It seems very casual and unsuspecting.

Luo Xingyi carefully looked around the room, then moved his shoulders to check his almost healthy body, and finally turned his head, his eyes fell on the door.

The door closed by the medical staff was ajar when they left, and there should be some people coming.

This is exactly why he wanted to know, so he obediently cooperated with the medical staff to come here—who on earth gave a helping hand at this time?

In fact, the moment Luo Xingyi woke up, the first thing Luo Xingyi suspected was that they ran away all night in vain, or that they were caught by Ji Shuyao.

But after thinking about it, he felt that Ji Shuyao didn't have the need to heal his injuries with good intentions, and his intuition couldn't be her and Dai Liming.After all, if he and Qu Lin were directly handcuffed to the laboratory bench while he was unconscious, even anesthesia would be saved, so why bother to heal his wounds and create conditions for him to escape?

Moreover, Luo Xingyi could feel that the owner here should be sending a friendly signal.Not to mention repairing his wounds, the medical staff who led the way did not have the kind of frantic eyes facing the experimental objects, but their eyes were relatively objective and calm; the interview room was not a cold laboratory or office, but a choice The living room is more life-like, and it is also covered with warm carpets...

Everything was trying to make his nerves less tense.

But in this way, the identity of the other party became even more confusing. After all, Luo Xingyi didn't know any friends who had an experimental base and a complete medical team in Taoyuan.

And if this is a third-party force, the other party's rescue of them is out of the need to fight against Ji Shuyao and Dai Liming, and temporarily pull them on board to form an alliance, then further consideration is needed.

Luo Xingyi stood on the spot and thought about it. The more he thought about it, the more likely he felt that a third-party force wanted to pull him into an alliance. When he was planning and rehearsing various negotiation situations in his mind, he suddenly heard the sound of wheels running over the ground from outside the door. sound.

Very light, very stable, with a little mechanical sound, it should be a wheelchair with automatic wayfinding.

The wheelchair moved very fast, and stopped in front of the door within a few seconds, and then, the half-hidden door opened.Luo Xingyi then turned his head, but saw a...someone he never expected anyway.

The moment Luo Xingyi saw the person coming, Luo Xingyi was stunned, as if he was blown to Mars all of a sudden, a hole exploded in his head, and his brain exploded out, leaving only a blank space.It was also like breathing in a vacuum, making his throat so tight that he couldn't speak a word.

The half-hidden door was fully opened, and the wheelchair drove into the room, and the sound disappeared after it rolled over the carpet.

Luo Xingyi looked at the gray-haired old man who entered the door in a wheelchair, and felt that perhaps he should be the disabled person in a wheelchair.

After a long time, he found his own voice from the shock of the earth shaking: "Xu... Uncle Xu?"

What the hell is going on? !

Xu Yan seemed to have expected Luo Xingyi's reaction a long time ago. Seeing his surprised expression stuck in his throat, he didn't have any happy reaction after taking off the mask. He just took out the old-fashioned cigarette as a symbol box, lit a cigarette for himself as a symbol, and started with a clichéd sentence while puffing: "This matter is a long story. Sit down, we have something to talk about."

As someone who was cheated the whole time, Luo Xingyi couldn't be as calm as Xu Yan.He remained motionless, still looking at Xu Yan in disbelief: "Uncle Xu...you? Are you okay?"

"How can I talk to you if I have something to do?" Xu Yan puffed out comfortably, squinting his eyes and enjoying himself, "It's comfortable, why are you standing there, sit down."

"you……"

"It's all just pretending." Before Luo Xingyi could ask another question, Xu Yan admitted it himself, "Otherwise I, this old bone, would not live to see you again. Fortunately, you came and brought me a Dongfeng, who turned the tables and shelled out of his shell, completely got rid of Ji Shuyao's monitoring."

Luo Xingyi stared at Xu Yan dumbfounded, and groped for the sofa to sit down. After being dumbfounded, he felt anxious, angry and wanted to laugh for a moment, all the ups and downs came.

At the same time, the tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm glad that Xu Yan wasn't really stupid. Fortunately, he wasn't really stupid, and his speech was a bit incoherent: "Then you, you never thought of telling me?"

"I reminded you earlier," Xu Yan made a gesture of sending flowers between cigarettes, "there is something wrong with the flowers. Do you care about them?"

Only now did Luo Xingyi realize Xu Yan's real intention for sending him flowers at that time, thinking that this was hidden too deep, who would think of hinting at that time!

He had to shake his head and sigh: "Uncle Xu, your acting skills are really good! The statuette owed by Oscar to you can support a metallurgical factory! I never doubted your stupidity from the beginning to the end, and I still feel that I am dreaming!"

The old god Xu Yan was smoking a cigarette on the ground, and said: "Ji Shuyao watched me too closely, she is so smart, if I can't even fool you, how can I fool her?" He smiled, or That old-fashioned look, "No wonder the disciples were preached and the master was starved to death. Sure enough, you have to hide everything."

Mentioning Ji Shuyao again, Luo Xingyi slowly recovered from the excitement in his mind, and the joy of discovering the big secret of the plot reversal also gradually faded with the many unresolved problems in front of him.

He re-examined Xu Yan.

But this time I watched it again, and my heart was filled with a heavy sadness that was beyond words.

If it wasn't for some precarious event, why did Xu Yan pretend to be crazy for so many years?He didn't even dare to reveal any information to him too obviously, he had to be a completely non-threatening fool in order to make a living under Ji Shuyao's hands.

Obviously, the two haven't seen each other for a long time. When Xu Yan was kidnapped by Ji Shuyao on a rainy night and threatened them with a gun to his head, even though the distance was a little far, they still met each other, not more than three days.But Luo Xingyi knew that the real meeting between him and Xu Yan after more than 20 years of absence was at this very moment.

As "Xu Yan" versus "Luo Xingyi".

Now looking at Xu Yan's eyes that have not changed for many years, the familiar feeling has returned.

It was as if they had traveled through time and space and were standing in the strategic deployment conference room of the "Moon Palace" for a conversation. The ashtray on the table was full of cigarette butts, and the lingering smoke had not yet dissipated.Time went back to the point where he hadn't slept yet.

Luo Xingyi's eyes slowly settled down, and he unconsciously straightened his back, sitting in a solemn soldier's posture.He looked at Xu Yan, and asked solemnly, "Uncle Xu, what happened all these years? What happened to the grace flower bug in Taoyuan?"

"...It's a long story." Xu Yan repeated it again, and put out the unfinished half of a cigarette on the armrest of the wheelchair.

His body is not as good as before, and the old smoker can only smoke half a cigarette a day to enjoy himself.

After the last bit of smoke dissipated, Xu Yan said, "We have to start with the incident that year."

"Ji Shuyao should have told you that the experiment failed, and everyone started to retaliate..." Xu Yan suddenly stopped, and looked up at Luo Xingyi who was opposite, "Including you. You also started to retaliate, but It's very light, you just never discovered it. This bottomless pit-like experiment has never succeeded."

"Then it's retribution, no paper can hold the fire. When we arranged for you to keep your body in a deep sleep and wait for the method to resolve the backlash later, Ji Shuyao and the others discovered that their evolution had failed, and the backlash was gnawing at you." Their lives, they had no way out, so they turned the 'Moon Palace' upside down.

We were able to get one of you at that time, because your situation was considered the mildest, but there was really no way for them. We could only take a step back and let them sign a life and death agreement to keep all information in the "Moon Palace" secret and never return to use. Agreement, let them go.And asked Wang Shu to delete all the information about them to ensure that they would not be hunted down and destroyed by Wang Shu and Xihe. "

"We met again in the troubled times, and we found this Taoyuan that was not polluted by zombies...haha? Taoyuan? No, at the beginning, this was just a small village, and the people in the village raised Gu worms. Unexpectedly, This Gu worm, which has been mutated and improved for several generations, has the ability to devour the 'sunset', and it is based on this that we started to create the 'Taoyuan Base'."

Speaking of this, Xu Yan suddenly asked Luo Xingyi: "You must be very curious, how did Ji Shuyao make you lose all your abilities, right? The answer is here."

Luo Xingyi's heart skipped a beat when he said it, and he felt like he was going to know something serious, and then he heard him say: "The current rule in Taoyuan is that those who are not parasitized by Gu insects are not allowed to enter. Everyone in Taoyuan, There is a small sleeping Gu worm in your body. When you are quiet, you may live in peace in this life, but once it is induced to grow, it will cause pain at least, or sudden death."
