Volume 2: The Big Lie Chapter 48: Strange
As soon as the two of them walked to the door of Jiang Xuance's room, they heard a voice coming from inside.
First of all, Pei Xing's calm voice: "Old Jiang, come here." β
Jiang Xuance sneered: "Dreaming!"
"Old Jiang, you come down first, let's talk. β
Qianzhou obviously heard Pei Xing's voice trembling faintly, and there was irrepressible anger. Even if he didn't see the real situation, Qianzhou could imagine the appearance of Pei Xing's forehead with bruised tendons.
"Am I stupid? If you let me come down, I'll come down?"
"Very good, Jiang Xuance, you forced me!" Pei Xing's voice came from gritting his teeth.
Then Qianzhou heard the snapping sound of the gears and the click of the friction of the machine.
"What are you doing here?" Qianzhou pushed the door open, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he saw the scene inside the house.
I saw Pei Xing holding a fishing rod in his right hand, and the mechanical prosthetic leg in his left hand had been transformed into a black hole cannon barrel, in which essives were constantly overflowing.
Jiang Xuance, on the other hand, was like a man in tights who had been bitten by a spider, with his limbs against the ceiling and hanging himself on it.
As soon as Qianzhou wanted to speak, a foul smell came to his face.
The smell was like something rotting, like a strange fermentation of a substance, mixed with the strange smell of various potionsβas soon as Qianzhou smelled it, he felt the urge to vomit out all the overnight meal. The former years on the side were even more choked and red, and he couldn't stop coughing.
"What does it smell like, are you cooking canned herring or making biological weapons?" Qianzhou hurriedly covered his nose.
"You have to ask Jiang Xuance about this. Pei Xing said with a dark face, "I just went out to catch a fish, and he made the room between the two of us look like this." Nothing I put in my room doesn't stink!"
"Teacher, I think it's better to let Brother Xuan Ce help me check this matter. Perhaps startled by such a scene, he leaned into Qianzhou's ear and whispered.
Qianzhou twitched the corners of his mouth again and said to Jiang Xuance, "Xuance, you come down first." Make things clear. β
Jiang Xuance looked at Pei Xing and then at Qianzhou. The last harrier rolled over and landed steadily from the ceiling to the ground.
Pei Xing pointed to the table: "Because I saw creatures I hadn't seen before in Enron, and there happened to be the remains left by wild beasts to hunt." I asked the owner for some to come back for testing. One can do research, and the other can help identify what kind of beast it is. β
Qianzhou looked at the table, and there were indeed a few pieces of minced meat on it. At the same time, Pei Xing's medicine box was also opened, and several empty test tubes were placed vertically on the shelves on the desktop.
"As for the taste. The minced meat decays quickly, and I can only keep it fresh with some strong-smelling potions. β
"Do you have a way to clean the smell? Pei Xing asked.
"Hmph. Jiang Xuance laughed twice, then paused, "Of course not, this is not in the academy." I can only wait for the smell to dissipate on its own...... , Lao Pei calmed down, put his hand down! I warn you, I'm not welcome if you do this again!"
Qianzhou rubbed his forehead and helped Jiang Xuance relieve the siege and said, "Xuance, have you researched anything?"
"Of course. Speaking of his profession, Jiang Xuance suddenly became interested, "The scientific name of this animal is 'Ponzi wildebeest', which is mainly distributed in the north of Central Continent and South Continent, and became extinct about 600 years ago. I didn't expect that there were still remnants of the population here. And it looks like it's been domesticated very well. β
"But there's a problem. Jiang Xuance's words changed.
"What's the problem?"
"It's that the minced flesh, though it looks like it's biting, doesn't actually look like a wound that can be inflicted with teeth or claws. β
In the past, he suddenly pulled the corner of Qianzhou's clothes: "Teacher, Uncle Holder came to me today because of this incident." β
Being reminded like this in the past, Qianzhou immediately remembered.
Archon Holder said that there may be wild beasts or even otherworldly species in the vicinity of Enron, and many domestic animals are missing. But Pei Jiang Xuance said that these traces were not left by the beast with its minions.
It's puzzling that several unrelated dots are strung together at this moment. The twists and turns behind it made Qianzhou think about it a lot.
"Since it's not the marks left by the beast's minions, then Xuan Ce, how do you think these wounds were caused?" Qianzhou frowned and asked seriously.
"It's not like it's the result of tangible matter. Jiang Xuance pinched his chin and thought carefully, "It's like some kind of sharp and unstable essentia, and the owner can't completely control this kind of irritable power when using it, so it will leave traces similar to bites." So it seems to me that it's more like someone is using these domestic animals to train their hands than a wild beast or a supernatural species. β
"How many transcendent beings are there?" Qianzhou turned his head to look at the past.
"Huh?" Former Nian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a gloomy expression, "Not much, most of Enron's inheritance has died out in the past thousand years." Like the kingdom of Enron itself, every day, every year. To this day, there are no more than five people who have set up the [cornerstone] safely, and only Uncle Holder and Sister Liya have jumped over the [Dragon Gate]. β
In the past, he smiled bitterly and said: "If you want to talk about the strongest, it should be rhubarb." β
"That's really ......," Qianzhou sighed.
Although he had expected Enron's situation, he didn't expect it to wither to this point. If it weren't for the deep desert and isolation from the world, I am afraid that it would have been carved up long ago. But even so, it has to be said that it is a miracle that such a backward country as Enron can continue to this day - at least in Qianzhou's view, this is not in line with the laws of history.
The so-called Peach Blossom Paradise is just people's wishful thinking!
Qianzhou rubbed his head in the past, and asked Jiang Xuance again: "Xuance, in your opinion, what level should the person who left traces be at?"
Jiang Xuance pondered for a while before saying, "It's strange that it's difficult for a transcendent of the [Cornerstone] rank to do it so cleanly. But if you leap over the [Dragon Gate] with your own strength, how can you not even control the essena well?"
Thinking of the situation when he first jumped over the [Dragon Gate], Qianzhou tilted his head in embarrassment.
I can't even control essentia, and I'm really ashamed of the transcendental......
"This is quite unusual. "Qianzhou doesn't have a clue.
"I see, I'll tell Uncle Holder about this and get him to pay more attention. Said in the past.
Qianzhou nodded, although he knew how strange this matter was, he couldn't find an angle to cut into for a while.
Looking at his student's gloomy expression, Qianzhou wanted to pinch her cheek. can think of being a cardamom girl in the past, and there are many inappropriate behaviors like this. So Qianzhou just rubbed her head: "Don't be sad, I'm your teacher after all, I'll help you with anything." β
"Hmm. The girl replied happily.
"Your Excellency, Prophet. Dinner is ready, so please move in. "Liya suddenly appeared out of nowhere, still with a poker face like an ice cube.
Several people moved to the dining table, and of course, Jiang Xuance, who was full of smell, was ordered to take a bath first.
At the dinner table, Qianzhou told Jiang Qinghan about this by the way.
The girl put down the chopsticks in her hand and said with a smile: "Shouldn't our great detective appear at this time?" In a seemingly peaceful city, detectives find unusual clues. After peeling back the layers and defeating the villains who stand in his way, the detective successfully uncovers a shocking secret - it's like in a novel, isn't it?"
Qianzhou rolled his eyes: "You really overestimate me, I said ......"
"Decryption and reasoning are not your forte, right?" Jiang Qinghan grabbed Bai Dao, "That's what you said when you were in Luntai. β
Qian, who is not good at reasoning, was choked and speechless all of a sudden. I didn't expect that I would be robbed one day when I played stalks and choked people all day long.
The interaction between the two aroused the curiosity of the past year, and she asked, "Sister Qinghan, is the teacher very good at reasoning?"
Of course, he just didn't want to admit it. When you were in Luntai, your teacher made a big splash. Jiang Qinghan said with a grin.
Qianzhou just lowered his head to eat.
"Sister Qinghan, can you tell me about it?" asked the former year.
"I think about it, of course......"
Then Jiang Qinghan told the story that happened in Luntai in the past years, and the thrilling part of it was no less than the novel. In the past, my eyes lit up when I heard it.
Looking at the girl's sparkling eyes, Qianzhou even had an auditory hallucination of "buling buling".
Although Jiang Qinghan's narrative does not exaggerate and embellish too much, he also plays a fairly positive image in it. But Qianzhou was still extremely embarrassed when he heard it, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
It's one thing to brag about yourself, but it's another thing to listen to others brag about yourself. (Although Jiang Qinghan is telling the truth)
Several people were chatting, and Qianzhou suddenly covered his mouth and coughed dryly.
This time the cough was far more violent than any before, and there was a tearing pain in the chest, and the throat was like molten iron. Qianzhou almost felt like his lungs were going to crack and cough up from his throat.
Jiang Qinghan couldn't help but stretch out his hand and gently patted Qianzhou's back to help him calm down.
coughed for nearly half a minute before Qianzhou regained his breath. I looked at my palm, and of course there was nothing.
"It's okay. Jiang Qinghan asked as he stroked Qianzhou's back.
Qianzhou waved his hand, signaling that he was okay. Discomfort comes and goes quickly. It's as if the pain just now was just an illusion.
"Maybe I just ate it too quickly and accidentally choked. Not wanting to worry the people around him, Qianzhou said casually.
"Really. Jiang Qinghan relaxed, "How can such a big person still be like a child." Can't you just pay attention when you're eating?"
"Next time, next time. Qianzhou smiled bitterly, "Don't worry about me, let's continue to eat." β
Soon, the atmosphere at the table returned to normal. It's just that in the past, he occasionally looked at Qianzhou, and there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
