Chapter Twenty-Four: Leaking the Bottom?

"Incredible. Wang Xiaotian's face was solemn, "I didn't expect them to evolve so powerfully." ”

"Do you know what their ancestors looked like?" Zhou Ziheng asked suddenly.

Wang Xiaotian secretly shook his head and almost said that he had leaked his mouth. He hurriedly shook his head, "Of course I don't know. However, you need to know some common sense. Aren't rabbits herbivores, like? Shouldn't rats come out at night?"

Zhou Ziheng was stunned, "Who told you this common sense?"

Wang Xiaotian was also stunned. He realized that he might ...... Maybe...... Said that he leaked his mouth. Could it be that there is something wrong with common sense? This common sense exists in his head, and he does not know the specific source.

In his consciousness, this should be common sense that everyone knows.

It's just that when he followed Mo Annie in the past, to be more precise, before his polysoul disorder was effectively treated, his mind was in a mess, and the whole person was confused, and all his cognition and knowledge were chaotic, and he couldn't tell whether he listened to others or knew it by birth.

Later, the polysoul disorder was controlled, but soon he went into the forest, living alone, and leaving the forest was an extremely tense life of escape, with no chance to test these common senses.

So Wang Xiaotian cautiously asked, "Could it be ...... Isn't it?"

Zhou Ziheng glanced at Wang Xiaotian with very strange eyes and said, "Of course not." Rabbits are omnivores, and rats are not only active at night but also during the day. ”

Wang Xiaotian tried hard to suppress his shock, and he didn't show it on his face, but his face was still very unnatural.

Zhou Ziheng stared, his very unnatural face, looked at it for a while, and suddenly whispered: "Well, rabbits are herbivores, and rats are active at night." ”

Wang Xiaotian thought that he was deliberately teasing himself, and his face was even more embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ziheng continued: "According to scholars' research, this was the case in the old era. ”

Wang Xiaotian was stunned. He stared at Zhou Ziheng's eyes, "You...... I've never seen the world, so don't lie to me. ”

Zhou Ziheng looked at Wang Xiaotian's eyes and nodded slowly very seriously.

Wang Xiaotian was silent. He didn't expect that his biggest secret would be exposed because of a small common sense problem.

He didn't know how to explain it, so he simply looked at Zhou Ziheng without saying a word.

Zhou Ziheng's face was calm, and he was not shocked to peek into Wang Xiaotian's secret.

He turned his head, looked at the ruins below the cliff, and said softly: "Folklore, some children do not need to be taught by adults at all, and they are born with a lot of knowledge, even more erudite than many adults. ”

"The common people say that such children did not drink Meng Po soup when they were reincarnated, so they retained the memories of their previous lives, and they all called them 'reincarnated spirit children'. ”

"Hehe, reincarnation or something, it's all nonsense. But it is not excluded that there are geniuses who are born to know. It's just that no one knows how these wizards were born. ”

Wang Xiaotian asked tentatively, "That's ...... Will they be arrested and studied?"

Zhou Ziheng shook his head, "We won't." But someone will. ”

"Anyone?who?"

Zhou Ziheng looked at Wang Xiaotian, "It is said that there are two organizations, one is called the Explorer and the other is called the Purification Sect, and these two groups of people are secretly looking for those reincarnated spirit children. I don't know what will happen to these people when they are found. ”

"Perhaps, they will be trained to become talents. However, I have never heard of a master from either organization. Or, their peculiarity, only in knowledge, martial arts cultivation is not outstanding. ”

Or, they prefer to live in seclusion and never show their faces. After all, even within the territory of Chu State, there are many secret realms that no one knows, let alone the marginal places outside the country. ”

"If they live in seclusion in these secret realms and do not come out, it will be difficult for outsiders to find them. Maybe...... Those people will dissect them, slice them, and study them. As he spoke, Zhou Ziheng's face showed a smile full of evil taste.

Wang Xiaotian ignored Zhou Ziheng's bad taste, "Who are you? Why do you know this, and why don't you stop their behavior?"

Facing Wang Xiaotiandao's questioning, Zhou Ziheng smiled and said, "Let's talk about why you don't stop them first." First, these things are just hearsay, no one has reported the crime, and no one can provide useful clues. ”

"Second, even if these things exist, they are still very few cases, and they do not pose much of a threat to the security of the entire country, and there is no need to spend a lot of manpower, material resources, and energy to investigate. Our resources are precious, how can we waste them on this?"

"Third, even if I investigate, this kind of case is a public security case, and it is not within the scope of my responsibility. As for who I am. Well, I can tell you, but if you know it, there will be and only two options. ”

Zhou Ziheng raised his right hand and raised a slender index finger to Wang Xiaotian, "First, join us." ”

Then, he stretched out his middle finger again, "The second is to be killed by me." Do you still want to know who I am?"

Wang Xiaotian hurriedly shook his head. His intuition told him that Zhou Ziheng was not joking.

Zhou Ziheng smiled, put down his hand, looked at the ruins under the cliff, and suddenly sighed with emotion: "Look at those animals, they are buried in their own world, as long as this world is not disturbed or destroyed, they will not notice at all, we on the edge of the cliff, strange existence." ”

"Of course, it is not excluded that some animal in the ruins will look up at us. It's just that we, strange beings, are so far away from their lives that we don't have to bother to think about whether we are real beings. ”

"Even if we strange beings have the ability to move mountains and reclaim the sea, with a single move, we can completely destroy the world in which they live. Even if it does come at that time, they may not be able to associate earth-shaking changes with us strange beings. ”

"Or, once in a while, one night an animal, while hiding from hunters and predators, runs out into an open field and looks up at the stars. At that moment, strange thoughts popped into its head, like, who am I, where do I come from? Where is this?"

However, the thought lasted only a moment before it vanished. The ferocious hunter and haunting predator make it have to return to reality. It had to scurry into the shadows to find a safe place to live. ”

"Occasionally, I wonder what is the difference between us and these animals living in the ruins? Aren't we also trapped on this planet, running around with our heads down in order to survive, to be prosperous and rich, to be fame and fortune?"

"What is the difference between us and these animals, and who among us will look up at the stars, who will think, who am I, where do I come from? What are these questions?"

Wang Xiaotian looked confused, and he didn't know why Zhou Ziheng suddenly said this.

Zhou Ziheng also realized his gaffe, smiled, and said, "Hehe, I can't understand it when I tell you." Forget it, let's go. ”

Wang Xiaotian hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

"To the destination, of course. ”

"Aren't you going to take a look in the ruins?" asked Shen Shuming.

All the while, Wu Ling'er remained silent, standing quietly beside Zhou Ziheng, acting as a background board.

"The ruins won't run away, and I'll come back when I have time. It's important to get down to business first. ”

Zhou Ziheng rose into the air, crossed the ruins, and continued to fly south.

Looking at the direction he was going, Wang Xiaotian felt that the reason why Zhou Ziheng and the others were able to discover this relic should be due to the fact that they deviated from the direction at the beginning. Hehe, it seems that even if it is a seventh-level Force master, it is not accurate enough to rely on visual positioning.

Beyond the cliffs, about a hundred miles to the south, the terrain in the east and north becomes open and flat, but the south is still mountainous.

Soon, they arrived at their destination.

It was a small village in a small valley. At the mouth of the valley, there is a crumbling hut made of wood.

On a tree stump at the door of the house sat a woman who looked very young but had a haggard face, draped in a black cloth with the edges torn into strands of cloth, moving with the wind, like a weed drifting with the waves.

At first, Wang Xiaotian thought she was a human remains. Because he didn't feel the woman's anger. However, when the woman heard the movement, she turned her head to look at them, and then lowered her head and returned to the form of a sculpture.

Seeing that there were living people here, and moreover, it was a woman with a very low Force level and not much stronger than ordinary people, Wang Xiaotian was really taken aback.

Although the terrain here is flat and suitable for farming, there are forests for hundreds of miles, full of wild beasts and poisonous insects. Ordinary people here, although they are not unable to live, but they also have a hard time surviving.

Wang Xiaotian couldn't understand why there were still people living in this environment.

Zhou Ziheng was standing, more than ten meters away from the woman, and Wu Ling'er was standing next to him holding Cao Lianyou, who was still unconscious.

Wang Xiaotian didn't know the situation, so he naturally wouldn't rush forward. He stopped behind Zhou Ziheng, and quickly dismantled the tripod with his hands and feet, tied it into a ball and carried it on his shoulders.

Shen Shuming also stopped beside Zhou Ziheng and put down the black dog and the little monkey. The little monkey deftly climbed onto the back of the black dog, and the black dog wagged its tail and ran to Wang Xiaotian's side.

Shen Shuming walked quickly to the woman's side and asked, "Hey, where is Scar Lao He?"

The woman's gloomy eyes suddenly glowed, and she grabbed Shen Shuming's arm, "Have you seen him? Where is he?"

The woman's hand strength is very strong, but the Force level is not high, only level 1. Shen Shuming was afraid of hurting her, so he didn't dare to use the Force to shake her away, so he only used his physical strength to break free of the woman's hand and scolded: "Crazy woman, how do I know, where is the old scar?

The woman heard Shen Shuming's words clearly, and her eyes dimmed again. She sat down and muttered, "He hasn't been seen for more than ten days, will he be killed?" He's so powerful, no one can hurt him. He is not dead, he must not be dead. ”

Shen Shuming ignored the woman's self-talk, turned his head and walked to Zhou Ziheng's side, "It seems that I have been stimulated a lot, and I can't ask anything." ”

Zhou Ziheng nodded, "Go inside and take a look, there should be other people." ”

Just now, they had already seen the terrain here, in addition to this small cabin at the mouth of the valley, there were seven or eight wooden houses in the valley, and they also found traces of other people.

The group walked around the woman into the valley. Wang Xiaotian walked last.

When he passed by about two meters away from the woman, he suddenly heard the woman muttering, "There is no good person in it, why don't you kill God, these wolf-hearted thieves!"

Wang Xiaotian had doubts, but did not stop. He walked two quick steps to catch up with Zhou Ziheng and asked, "This is located in the hinterland of the forest, how can there be people?"

Zhou Ziheng said as he walked: "Although this is the hinterland of the forest, in the old era, there was an important highway that passed through here. Today, the road is abandoned, but the roadbed is still legible and can accommodate the passage of cars and horses. Along the roadbed, two hundred miles north of here, there is a city of more than 100,000 people. ”

"So, in terms of traffic, it's not closed. A long time ago, some people committed crimes and fled here with their families in order to escape the punishment of the law, and some people ventured into the forests to hunt wild beasts and sell them for money in order to earn a living. ”

"Over time, in the forest, some human settlements have appeared. This happens all over the country, and this is just one of them. ”

"Does the country care?"
