Volume 2 Crime and Contradiction Chapter 32 Farewell and Origin
Fortunately, there happened to be a spare ward in the hospital, and they rented a few rooms to make do with it for the night, Professor Fu and Captain Zhang both decided to rush back to the capital early tomorrow morning, Zuo Danyang and Wang Yuan and their family were in the national capital, so they went back together, but Lu Fan, who was over the task, did not plan to go to the national capital with him, he wanted to go back to Fancheng to have a look, so he knocked on the room where Professor Fu was at night.
"Please come in. Open the door, Professor Fu and a few people are sitting on the edge of the bed, Lu Fan approached the edge of the bed, Fu Zhongbiao and Qingye sat on both sides, Qingye looked still in good spirits, seeing Lu Fan come in, a pair of bright eyes looked over, smiled and nodded, squinting at the house Hai Dachun had fallen asleep in bed, he had experienced a little more fright these days.
"Sit down. Lu Fan took Aoba's stool and sat down, and explained his intention to Professor Fu Lao.
"It's a long way to go, I'll ask Captain Zhang to find a team member to send you back. "Old Professor Fu originally wanted to take Lu Fan back to see the customs of the imperial capital, but seeing Lu Fan's clear attitude, he didn't force him to stay.
"No need, my ticket has been booked, and it is much closer to the imperial capital to go home from here, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely visit you in the imperial capital." "Since entering the university, he has not been home for nearly a year, Lu Fan can't help but miss the poplars in Fancheng, he didn't have a very serious idea of it, and he can't help but feel anxious when he thinks that he will soon return to that familiar place.
"Okay. Old Professor Fu sat up straight from the rectum, "Originally, I came to Xixi this time just to inquire about the whereabouts of the first two batches of teams, I never thought that this tomb would be so weird, but fortunately, the purpose of this trip has been achieved, in general, you have performed well this time, and I will ask people to make a report and submit it to your school in terms of grades." β
"Thank you, Professor. Professor Fu's words have made his attitude clear, and Lu Fan's worried results have been confirmed, and he has relaxed a little at the moment.
"The young man is very good, but you are still young, and you still need to cultivate your mind and temperament to do things, and you must not be impatient. Teacher Fu sighed meaningfully: "I have also had a student like you, but unfortunately I took the wrong path, and now I have gone farther and farther, and the future is unpredictable." With a sigh of emotion, the old professor looked at Lu Fan and said, "No matter what path you choose, you have to understand something, what you want, whether it is worth chasing for a lifetime, even if you get it one day, you will regret it." β
The professor's words seem to mean something, but the truth in it is worth considering, Lu Fan's half-jaw eyes, self-cultivation is not easy, his road has already stepped in, since he has walked in, there is no room for exit, as for whether it is worth it, this is not a question he should consider now, Lu Fan feels that as an adult with free thoughts, he has to be responsible for what he does, even if he fails, he will never regret it, maybe it's too early to think about this, but time will reveal the answer, Lu Fan bowed solemnly, " Thank you for your guidance. β
Out of the room, Lu Fan looked at the dim corridor street lamp, his eyes were a little misty for a while, he stretched out his palm, the black book appeared in the palm of his hand, Lu Fan put the black book close to his body, and the feeling of nothingness in the dark pulled him, after a while, Lu Fan opened his eyes, he quickly turned into the end of the corridor, went up the stairs to the rooftop, pushed open the protective door, and could see in front of him, Zuo Danyang and Wang Yuan were leaning on the stone pillar to blow the wind and talk, and Bai Ling was standing on the side, looking back at Lu Fan at this time.
"What do you want to do. Bai Ling showed the Qingling Sword and took a step forward and pointed at Lu Fan.
"Don't worry, I've just eaten and I'm not hungry yet. Lu Fan guessed correctly, as long as Bai Ling was nearby, he could find it with the black book, which also invisibly confirmed a point in his heart, seeing that Bai Ling's hostility was still obvious, Lu Fan patted his stomach with a smile, and said with a cold look in his random eyes: "But if someone wants to treat me as a dish, then I don't mind eating more." β
"Bai Ling, don't get excited. Zuo Danyang whispered to Bai Ling, then faced Lu Fan, and said loudly, "What are you doing here?" β
"Looks like you already know. Seeing Zuo Danyang's expression, Lu Fan knew that he roughly understood the cruel relationship between the capable people, "In that case, then I won't talk nonsense, first state that I don't really want to have any conflicts with you in this place, but I just have a few questions I want to ask it." Lu Fan pointed to Bai Lingdao.
"On what basis should I answer you? From the very beginning, Bai Ling's attitude towards Lu Fan was already bad, and at this time, it refused without hesitation.
"I'm really curious, you and I have never met, why do you have such an attitude towards me, although there is a predatory relationship between the able, but I have seen that there is also a team of capable people who work well together, killing is not the only relationship, but your attitude can easily cause misunderstandings. This is the first question Lu Fan wants to ask, he and Bai Ling have not lived in their lives, this is only the first time they have met, why is its attitude so bad, Lu Fan wants to know, what does Bai Ling know.
"Ability team, you mean, in addition to you, there is also a team of ability people?" Unexpectedly, Bai Ling seemed to be very surprised by the ability team in Lu Fan's mouth.
"That's right, since the eclipse incident, there have been many people with mysterious abilities in this world, aren't you one of them?" Lu Fan found that Bai Ling didn't seem to have a clear view of the current situation, and even Zuo Danyang had heard about the eclipse event, but Bai Ling showed a momentary dazedness after hearing it, "Or, how do you exist!" This is Lu Fan's second question, from the mouths of the armed members, I know that the appearance of the white spirit is very mysterious, if it is also another way for KEY to exist, then what kind of form does KEY have, and how many ways does it manifest itself.
"How does it exist?" Zuo Danyang looked back at Bai Ling, this question also existed in Zuo Danyang's heart, he had just learned about this relationship between people with abilities from Bai Ling's mouth, but he still didn't know anything about everything else in Bai Ling, Lu Fan's words aroused doubts in his heart.
In the face of the questioning of the two, Bai Ling was silent suddenly, Lu Fan carefully felt complex emotions from its eyes, and even killing intent, subtle but ruthless, Lu Fan couldn't help but cover the black book in his arms, and secretly guarded carefully, "What do you want." Hearing this, Lu Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it is by no means a wise choice to clash with them in this place, not to mention the question of victory or defeat, the qi of the black book feedback itself has not yet begun to be fully digested, plus there is no hatred between the two sides, Lu Fan really has no reason to do it with them, at the end, he said: "Exchange information, you tell me what you know, and I will also tell you what I know, let's make friends, maybe one day in the future, we can continue to fight side by side." β
Bai Ling stared at Lu Fan deeply, as if he wanted to detect the unusual from his face, and Lu Fan was also exploring the three people opposite, strange to say, Lu Fan's induction of KEY just now was not emanating from Bai Ling's body, but from Zuo Danyang's body, what made him most puzzled was Wang Yuan, before entering the tomb, he clearly didn't feel anything abnormal about Wang Yuan, but when he got to the tomb, Lu Fan could feel from him that the KEY fluctuations were very subtle, and the difference from the abilities he met before was much weaker, but it was similar to Zuo Danyang's original feeling in the village, but since Bai Ling appeared, Zuo Danyang's body began to emit strong fluctuations of KEY, Lu Fan guessed that this may be a kind of awakening of KEY, which is equivalent to the beginning when he used the black book to kill the first person.
"Then what information do you have that you can exchange with us?" Several people were relatively silent, Wang Yuan was the first to break the peace, he felt that it was better to talk like this, first see what Lu Fan had of value, and it was not too late to make a decision after listening.
"Like you, I am a person with special abilities, and with the way you are now, I may be worthy of your predecessors. Lu Fan tried to calm his tone.
"So what, what does this have to do with the information exchange you mentioned?" Wang Yuan didn't quite understand the meaning of the special ability, and vaguely linked the white spirit and the images in the tomb.
"I just want to remind you that there are many people scattered all over the world, some of them living independently, some of them working together, and since you know the relationship between the ables, you should understand that if one day you are targeted. Lu Fan smiled and didn't say any more.
"Am I counted too?" Wang Yuan said in surprise, Zuo Danyang summoned Bai Ling, this may be an ability, but Wang Yuan felt that he had a little more strength at most, and there was nothing special about it.
"Show me the mark on your hand to see if you are a capable person. Seeing this, Lu Fan said directly.
Wang Yuanhu was suspicious for a moment, and seeing that Zuo Danyang also agreed, he began to close his eyes and concentrate, and a red mark appeared on the back of his hand, "How is it, do you feel it?" Lu Fan asked Zuo Danyang with a smile.
Hearing this, Wang Yuan also looked at Zuo Danyang, Zuo Danyang was silent for a while, and finally nodded silently, "The induction between capable people will be very strong for the first time, and you will get used to it over time." Lufan continued.
"But my mother said that this thing was a birthmark, and my father also has it, could it be that he is also a person with this ability?" Wang Yuan stroked the mark on the back of his hand and wondered.
"Heredity?" Lu Fan's heart sank, could KEY tarsal into the genes and pass it on directly to the next generation, which was tantamount to an important discovery for Lu Fan, his heart turned, and he turned around and asked Xiang Zuo Danyang, "Is your jade there, can you show me?"
Zuo Danyang glanced at Bai Ling and shook his head at Lu Fan, "When Bai Ling appeared, it disappeared." β
Bai Ling and jade, what is the connection between the black book, the two seem to be different but there is a vague similarity, how does Bai Ling exist, how does the black book exist, this question that makes Bai Ling react so violently is likely to lift the mystery of KEY, "What do you want to know." As if he didn't want Lu Fan to ask any more questions, Bai Ling said directly.
"How much do you know about my ability?" Feeling the chill in Bai Ling's eyes, Lu Fan knew that Bai Ling's current attitude had changed, but it was just a concession made in order to prevent him from letting him delve into the secrets of Bai Ling's body, since the goal had been achieved, Lu Fan also accepted it when he saw it, and directly threw out the question he wanted to ask the most.
"I'm sorry, I have nothing to say about your question, and I warn you that it's best not to try to understand it, because you can't refuse it. To Lu Fan's surprise, Bai Ling still refused to answer, but still gave an explanation, but this explanation made Lu Fan even more confused, "Since I can't answer this question, then as compensation, I will tell you everything I know." On the way over, Bai Ling roughly understood the current time and the pattern of the world from Zuo Danyang's mouth, and in order to fill the gap between himself and Zuo Danyang's ignorance, Bai Ling decided to confess everything that had been.
In fact, the source of KEY has been a long time, about a century ago, the world is mainly occupied by five large countries, suddenly there is an unfathomable pit at a certain border, people use many tools, only to probe the ground, but the bottom is covered by a layer of transparent glass-like material, through this layer of material can vaguely see that there is a hole inside, from the outside you can see the unusual architectural style inside and even there are creatures that look like humans sleeping, so the news that under the pit is an ancient ruins spread all over the world, many people are famous, but no matter how you use this layer of material can not be brokenγ
In the second month of the appearance of the crater, a rare meteor shower for hundreds of years pierced the sky and brought a moment of darkness to the whole world, and it was not long before people discovered the unstable energy carried by the meteor shower, the first time it caused a huge reaction, it was in the crater, the explorers found that the unstable energy was adsorbed into the pit, when this energy touched the layer of transparent matter, the substance was gradually corroded and dissolved, these unstable energy seemed to exist specifically to eliminate the layer of matter, open up the world inside, and at the same time this energy can also activate the potential in the human body, so the scientists at that time called this energy KEY, the key, the key that opens the door to a new world.
However, the adsorbed KEY is limited, the transparent substance is only half consumed, in order to open the secret under the pit, scientists began to collect KEY, in order to avoid the human body directly absorbing KEY, they used technology to achieve a certain balance of pure substance, used to hold KEY and send it to the pit, the plan began to be implemented, the KEY collected from all over the world was sent in a steady stream, but unfortunately the underground world will be opened, a crustal movement destroyed the balance of the underground, and the terrifying earth fire molten burst out from the crack, instantly destroying the unknown world, and the pit was buried without seeing the light of dayOver time, people began to forget the existence of the big pit.
However, the power brought by KEY has become the source of the world's contention, after a period of competition, the rulers who control the high-end power get most of the KEY, and they are gradually not satisfied with what they have, and began to plunder other countries, a decades-long world war was stimulated, after the war, the world economy as a whole regressed, all industries withered and mourned, and the world pattern changed from the original five countries to the three kingdoms, that is, the current three empires of Heng, Beimi, and Qiang.
According to Bai Ling's recollections, the war was tragic, with the support of KEY, the frenzied scientists put their hands into the field that was taboo by humans, and various biochemical gene technologies began to change, and a world war gradually evolved into a non-human war, fortunately, the first battle that finally laid the pattern, and burned most of the things that should not exist together, so as to reluctantly ease the world on the verge of collapse, and then the white spirit body was hit hard, and he had no choice but to turn into jade into a deep sleep and warm energy, waiting for the next masterγ
Bai Ling's words were very concise, telling the dusty history of the past, it didn't use many gorgeous words to describe it, a few simple sentences, but it made Lu Fan and the three of them feel the tragedy brought about by the war and the defeat of the people's hearts, and several people were silent in place for a long time before they digested Bai Ling's words, "The existence of the guardian spirit is to protect, if you can't even get the trust of the master, there is no need to exist." Showing a position, Bai Ling swore an oath and generally bowed over, showing his firmness.
"I see. Seeing this, Zuo Danyang also responded to it clearly, everyone has their own secrets, Bai Ling was brought to this world by himself, according to the current relationship between the two, it is not yet time to reveal their secrets to each other, and these should not be allowed to become a barrier between the two.
"I'm sorry, but I don't have the corresponding information in exchange. Lu Fan stretched out his hand, he confessed his grievances with Ban Jiu, showing that he was not a person with the ability to kill madness, and finally Lu Fan apologized to Zuo Danyang: "But I promise that if you need my help in the future, you will definitely help." β
Zuo Danyang smiled slightly, "Okay, if he is in trouble in the future, he will help." "Zuo Danyang has been in the market for so many years, and he knows the truth of having more friends and many roads, if what Lu Fan said before is not bad, maybe in the near future, they will need a friend like Lu Fan, this handshake between the two is also a preliminary friendship, even if they can't be friends in the future, at least they won't easily become enemies.
