Chapter 37: The Answer I Didn't Want to Seek
There was the sound of wheels rubbing against the carved road in his ears, and Yuan Xinran felt that his body was curled up, and he was not very comfortable lying down. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
She regained consciousness and did not immediately open her eyes, maintaining her breathing rate in a comatose state, sensing her surroundings.
She realized that she was not restrained, except for the unique sound of the pole car's operation, there was also the presence of another person, judging by the tactile sense underneath, she was still in the carriage.
Someone was next to her, and there was no doubt that that person was the bastard who knocked her unconscious, Zhongsang.
"You're awake." A calm baritone came from the other side.
Yuan Xinran knew that she couldn't hide it, she opened her eyes and sat up.
She looked out the window, and the current speed of the pressure bar car was 50 kilometers per hour, and Zhong Shang, who was sitting opposite, was naturally calm, as if what had stunned her before had not happened.
This man's skin thickness has reached a certain level. Yuan happily pursed his lips and rubbed his legs, which were a little numb.
The things on her body were all there, and there was no trace of being searched, which made her feel less bad for Zhong Shang, seeing that Zhong Shang had no intention of imprisoning her, Yuan Xinran simply took out his personal terminal to check the current time and location.
Three hours had passed before she fell unconscious.
According to the geographical location shown on the map, at the current speed, it will only take about 4 days to reach the main city of the ideal city if it goes well.
Of course, they are getting farther and farther away from the Maya.
When Yuan Xinran checked the information, Zhong Shang's arm operated the lever car quickly and evenly, which was very efficient to maximize the effect of human kinetic energy.
"If I still insist on going to Maya, will you stun me again?" Yuan happily leaned back in his chair and observed Zhong Shang.
Zhong Shang stopped his movements and let the pole car slide along the way.
"You're really the most stubborn woman I've ever met."
He smiled and sighed, "When we arrive at Ideal City, I won't stop you from going to Maya, but don't go now." β
"Repetition of arguments doesn't convince me." Yuan Xinran raised his chin slightly, "How do you know it's dangerous there." Oh no, I should ask you, what the hell happened to Maya? β
"You and I both know that no matter what special abilities you have, getting close to the Tree of Life will make a big difference. You are not fully integrated with the power of the miracle, and the impact will only be greater. Zhong Shang pointed to Yuan Xinran's wrist, "Why is it that form?" With your qualifications, the power of miracles should not be limited to this level. β
Yuan happily lowered his face and expressed his displeasure undisguised.
"It's not about you, I don't want to hear about it anymore."
"I apologize if this question makes you uncomfortable." Zhong Shang sincerely apologized.
"Apologizing has no practical use at all," Yuan Xinran rolled his eyes, "It's better to give money." Moral damage plus material compensation. In order to take you away from Noah, I went out this time and bought a third of the goods. β
"I don't have a lot of common currency on me." Zhong Shang showed a slightly embarrassed look, "I'll have it when I get to Ideal City." β
Yuan Xinran didn't expect to really get money from Zhong Shang, hearing him say this, he suddenly became interested, and couldn't help but ask curiously,
"You're going to rob it as soon as you get to Ideal City?"
"Ha, even if you really want to do it, you won't dare to give you that kind of stolen money. Am I that image in your mind? Zhong Shang was a little crying and laughing, "I have financial channels, and most of them are legal." How much do you want? β
Yuan Xinran thought about it and reported the number, which was one-third more than the actual loss. Just think of it as the cost of the extra hire assignment she received this time.
"Not much, I can give it to you now."
"Now? Where do you have so much money? Yuan Xinran didn't believe it, she remembered that she had searched Zhong Shang's clothes before leaving Noah, and there were very few things on him, let alone a large amount of money.
"It's true that I didn't carry that much money with me," Zhong Shang's fingers drew a complex pattern in the air, and a spatial opening emerged, "but that doesn't mean I don't." β
That's Atlantis' Compact Space Pocket! Yuan Xinran was shocked.
By signing a contract, you can directly use the exclusive space created by Atlantis's miracle power, and Atlantis never leaks out and has a scarce number of miracle items.
It was the first time that Yuan Xinran had seen contract-type space props that had only appeared in the data. She had been skeptical that Zhong Shang was not really from Atlantis, but now that thought was wavering.
Zhong Shang put his hand deep into the opening of the space and took out a well-made money bag from inside.
He didn't open it, and handed it to Yuan Xinran directly.
"There should be enough money in it."
Yuan Xinran took it and opened it to see that the money bag was full of gold bills of the largest denomination. It didn't take much to count before she knew that paying the amount she had quoted was not only more than enough, but at least three times more.
Help, she actually greatly improved her favorability for this man because of this.
was baptized by the bad atmosphere of society, and her temperament also became apostasy.
Yuan happily pouted, maintained a serious expression, and put away the money bag.
"The mercenary plus the loss of the goods is enough. cough," she cleared her throat, "I can take you back to Ideal City first, and as for where I'm going to go after that, please don't interfere anymore." β
"If you're still going to Maya, I'd suggest bringing three more guards with you with a similar ability." Zhongshang gave advice sincerely.
"I'll think about it," Yuan nodded happily.
When the time comes, she will ask the Pope to lead the team.
"Change hands, you will rest." Yuan Xinran took the lever of the lever car, "Thanks to you, my physical strength has recovered almost completely, and everyone will control each other for 3 hours in the future, and then change it." β
"It's okay, you're a female ......" Zhong Shang wanted to refuse.
Yuan Xinran interrupted him, "Men and women have their own areas of expertise, and those who are good at take care of those who are not good at it, and gender is not the determining factor." In terms of physical strength, I am not bad and do not need your care. β
Zhong Shang paused, "You're right, I'm biased." β
"Huh? Accidents are easy to convince, I thought you were more machismo. β
"I'll take it if it makes sense. Looks like I have a bad impression in your mind. β
"No, you are much stronger than that Lin Pei's impression in my heart."
"Haha, that one is more willful and doesn't care much about what others think of him. In fact, that kind of sincere personality is rare, basically what he says is what he says. β
"You're his friend? So understood. β
"Well, not really."
Yuan Xinran saw that he couldn't get the information, and was about to change the topic, Zhong Shang added.
"He's my cousin."
"Huh?" Yuan Xinran almost choked on her own saliva.
The two are not at all alike.
Zhong Shang calmly released an information bomb and ended the topic.
"After operating the lever for several hours in a row, it was a bit tiring. If you don't mind, I'll lie down for a while. β
"You feel free." Yuan Xinran silently compared the personality gap between Zhong Shang and Lin Pei in his heart, and found that it was even more different.
Could it be that this guy is different from Lin Pei's explicit nature and is a hidden pervert?
Yuan Xinran looked at Zhong Shang, who was lying on his side resting, and felt that he couldn't see through this person more and more.
Anyway, when he arrived in Ideal City, Yuan Xinran handed over Zhong Shang to the Pope to deal with, and in front of the power of the Pope's Soul Ring, he was not afraid of what he was doing behind his back.
Yuan Xinran has never told anyone that she still has the method and right to contact the Pope privately, but she has never used it.
As the Pope's protΓ©gΓ©, she disobeyed the Pope's secret order two years ago and withdrew from the military department, and since she left, she has wanted to do something as a reward for the teacher's cultivation many years ago.
She knew that she had disappointed her teacher by what she had done, but she did not regret it. If she had to choose again, she would do it.
Yuan Xinran sped up the speed in his hand.
She had revised her plan to go back to Ideal City to see Maya, just to collect some information there and contribute to the teacher's next considerations and plans.
It's a pity that I can't go now, so I can only go back to Ideal City as soon as possible.
Seven thousand space capsules, fifty-two core chips, a new weapon, and the information gathered when he left Noah, plus Zhong Shang, at the current rate, should be able to make a big gift to the teacher before the celebration.
Yuan Xinran thought about what Zhong Shang said about Lin Pei, who didn't care about other people's opinions at all, and felt that if he could live as heartless as that, it would be much easier.
It's just that she can't.
Those who can do it, where is the selfishness and self-confidence in their hearts?
She didn't want to seek that answer.
