Chapter 43: I'm playing a big game of chess

The major looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”

"We went after the xenomorphs and found a big one with a little girl. Thought that the little girl was an Awakened and intended to be captured alive. I didn't expect them to run into the yard over there. Then the people in the yard seemed to open fire to cover them, an assault rifle...... Kill eleven of us, shoot us in the head! ”

"Now he has no bullets, but Xiao Wang heard the people in the courtyard say, 'Qingqing come in'β€”" The second lieutenant rubbed his hands nervously, "He shot sixteen shots at Xiao Deng!" Guns and guns are all colliding together! Such an ability, and that name...... Are you saying it's Li Zhen?! ”

The Major's face became serious, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his eyes to look at the courtyard in the distance, and then looked at the captain: "Are you sure he heard him right?" ”

"Transform a soldier's hearing, absolutely no problem! What shall we do? Call for reinforcements? You can't let him go! ”

But the major was silent for a while. After a while, he raised his head again: "Something is wrong." ”

The captain frowned: "What? ”

"Why didn't he chase him out?" The Major muttered, "Why can I let you go?" It's really Li Zhen's words...... I think I know a little bit about that person. If you shoot that little girl...... None of you can leave. And how can that little girl mix with xenos? ”

He thought about it again and waved his hand expressionlessly: "Go." We passed. ”

The captain was stunned: "Qixi, are you crazy?!" ”

But the major, or rather, Du Qixi, only shrugged his shoulders and strode forward: "This is an order. ”

Because suddenly a thought appeared faintly in his heart.

The matter of "two Li Zhen" has been known to many people. According to the major general who is now at the base in the north. He was reborn and split after the Battle of Zamboanga. One is the real Li Zhen, and the other is the "fake Li Zhen" who is polluted by the species.

And that fake Li Zhen has completely fallen to the door of truth, and the first thing he did after entering the empire was to kill Shen Mu. Because Shen Mu's theory actually correctly predicted the law and cause of the aurora. The Gate of Truth did not want this set of theories that could put the human world back on the right track to be further refined, so it intervened.

The two of them once experienced a big battle near the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum, and the fake Li Zhen also asked the species to help him. Speaking of this category...... A lot of people find it unacceptable. Because according to the survivors' descriptions, that species is actually a dragon.

It is not the kind of evil dragon in Western mythology, but the common totem of the descendants of Yan and Huang in Eastern legends, the real golden dragon!

But no matter how strong the emotion is, no matter how difficult it is to accept, the facts are in front of you.

The dragon, or rather, the species. Destroyed several large cities overnight. Millions of civilian casualties were caused, culminating in the detonation of a nuclear power plant.

The most important thing is...... It was wounded while fighting Li Zhen. The blood of the species spilled in the air, causing terrible "pollution" - a large number of civilians turned into xenomorphs and flowed across the land. Cause widespread panic. Although these xenos can only maintain their form for a few days. But the southern bases and the military still had to send troops to clean them up, and that's why he's here.

Dragon. In other words, the appearance of the species confirmed the statement of the major general - this Li Zhen is already on the opposite side of mankind.

Du Qixi believes this statement – because the facts are beyond doubt.

But after hearing these words from the captain. He suddenly felt a little confused.

The key point is to be clear.

Li Zhen's past experience is not a secret in the secret service system, and many high-ranking officials are well aware of all the things that happened in the period between his death and his entry into the secret service. And Du Qixi also learned this secret through a secret channel. So here's the problem......

If it is a "fake Li Zhen" who stands on the opposite side of mankind, why would he be with Yu Qingqing?

Is this supposed to be the humanity of a "species"?

Besides, if the major general in the northern base also knew that Yu Qingqing would be in the country...... What did you never mention and wasn't with her?

He had the impression that Li Zhen was not a ruthless person!

Because of this thought, he instinctively felt that something was wrong. So he issued orders as he went, telling everyone to follow him.

Because of the vague thought in his heart, he had to prevent someone from running out of the city without permission and reporting to someone else.

There are still four survivors. With the addition of the three people he brought, there were eight people in total.

Now seven people followed, whispering, and quickly figured out the possible identity of the man in the courtyard. Then everyone's faces changed color in shock, and if it weren't for the military order, they would have turned around and fled. The captain tried to persuade Du Qixi again. But in exchange for a harsh rebuke from this former friend.

So they had to bite their teeth, put their hearts sideways, and gambled their lives on their direct commander.

As Du Qixi requested, they put their guns on their shoulders and slowly approached the courtyard. When he was more than ten meters away, Du Qixi stopped and raised his voice: "I am Du Qixi." ”

The courtyard wall is a red brick wall, one person high. It was covered in dust, and there were gaps in the walls that had been smashed by toppled buildings nearby. The courtyard was still quiet, and no one answered.

Du Qixi frowned slightly: "Now I'm coming in." It's just me. I think we can talk. ”

Still no one spoke. The captain whispered, "Is he...... Let's go? ”

This sentence made the others breathe a sigh of relief slightly, but Du Qixi made their hearts rise again: "No." ”

He continued to walk outside the courtyard gate. Then he waved his hand: "You stay here." ”

The captain had a relieved look on his face, and said worriedly, "You...... Be careful. ”

Du Qixi nodded slightly and put his hand on the courtyard door. After rubbing for a while, he pushed it away.

The door is unlocked. The two green iron doors made a slight "creaking" sound and separated.

Then the captain felt his heart stop for a moment.

Because inside the yard. The door was also open. A man was standing in the doorway.

Who else could it be if it wasn't Li Zhen?!

There was a slight commotion in the crowd. Du Qixi pursed his lips tightly and stared at Li Zhen at the door.

The other party was expressionless, but there was a faint anger hidden in a pair of dark eyes. He put his hands behind his back, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and finally stopped at Du Qixi's body, and said gloomily: "You are so bold." Do you think your life is too long? ”

It's just two sentences. But in the words...... There's something else.

It was something that sounded ethereal, but it was very real on everyone at the momentβ€”fear and fear came to mind for a moment, and someone exhaled in a low voice, and put his arm on the shoulders of his companions.

It's as if a small voice in my head is urgingβ€”

Go, go, go! Come on! Stay away from him!!

It's called coercion. Now it is no longer deliberately restrained, but unscrupulously flaunted from Li Zhen. Spread to every inch of space around you.

In fact, this is something similar to some kind of strong psychological suggestion - people who were already afraid of "fake Li Zhen" became more and more panicked at the moment. I just thought that the next moment that person would fly over and kill them all. Only people who have a trace of hesitation in their hearts and feel that something may be strange in their hearts, such as Du Qixi, can grit their teeth and not show the slightest fear.

Du Qixi's eyes widened. A sentence stood out between his teeth: "Maybe it's a misunderstanding." ”

"Misunderstanding?" Li Zhen grinned gloomily. "Including the ones I killed?"

Du Qixi stared at Li Zhen's eyes. Said slowly: "It's not your misunderstanding, it's - our misunderstanding." Or rather, a lot of misunderstandings. ”

He carefully observed Li Zhen's expression. And Li Zhen was also observing him.

Du Qixi's face was a faint fear that was suppressed by hard work. But the other expressions ......

No.

Li Zhen realized through the other party's micro-expressions that he seemed to really think soβ€”albeit with some uncertainty.

"It was our misunderstanding."

This sentence is worth playing, and there is something else hidden in it. He looked at it for a few more seconds, and felt that he probably understood what this "acquaintance" was talking about.

Then the coercion dissipated abruptly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had emerged from below the surface of the water, and breathed fresh air once again.

Du Qixi gasped a few times and tried to enter the courtyard gate.

Li Zhen did not object.

So he walked in with confidence, let the people behind him also enter the courtyard, and then ordered: "Close the door, stay here." No one is allowed to communicate with anyone without my orders. ”

The second lieutenant glanced at Li Zhen, quickly turned his eyes and nodded emphatically.

Du Qixi took a few steps forward, separated from Li Zhen by three meters, and glanced at the people in the courtyard: "Can you go in and talk?" ”

An almost undetectable smile appeared at the corner of Li Zhen's mouth: "You have confidence in your own judgment?" ”

Du Qixi understood what he was referring to. "True identity" or "Serious injury in incapacitation". He smiled lightly: "I misunderstood you last time, and you saved my life again." I'll just bet on it. It's a big deal to give your life back. ”

Li Zhen tilted his head.

Du Qixi strode over, grabbed his arm, and the two of them entered the house and closed the door together.

As soon as the door closed, Du Qixi felt the pressure on his arm. He grabbed Li Zhen and frowned in surprise: "So serious? ”

Li Zhen climbed his arm: "Go in and talk." ”

Then he said softly: "Qingqing, we came in, there is nothing to do." ”

The little girl poked her head out from behind the door of the inner room and glanced at Du Qixi vigilantly.

So he noticed the little girl's silver eyes and was slightly stunned. Yu Qingqing frowned at him again and grinned. A row of small, sharp teeth was exposed.

Du Qixi suppressed the surprise in his heart and lowered his eyes. So Qingqing snorted and ran over to support Li Zhen from the other side.

The two of them put Li Zhen on a chair...... Du Qixi saw another xenomorph.

The big xenomorph lay on the ground, grinning and growling in the same teeth.

This time, he finally couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Zhen let out a long sigh: "Which one are you asking, what's going on?" ”

Du Qixi sighed, pulled over a chair and sat opposite him: "All the things." So you're the one who says it's true, and the one in the northern base is fake? ”

"I said yes. Do you believe it? Li Zhen spread his hands.

Du Qixi looked at Yu Qingqing and then observed Li Zhen's face: "I believe it." You're not lying. ”

Li Zhen raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Huh? So you ...... Also proficient in this? ”

He pointed to his face.

"That's what I majored in college. Gun Mastery is an ability that only awakens later. Du Qixi nodded, "Micro-expression - I am also a polygraph expert at the southern base." But you seem to be trained in this area as well. If you're going to lie, I don't necessarily see it. But when I saw this little girl...... I think you're eighty percent true. ”

Li Zhen smiled: "Okay, then it will be much more convenient for us to speak." It's more complicated than you seeβ€”I'm real, and the dragon that appeared that night wasn't a species in the ordinary sense of the wordβ€”and he's on the human side. ”

Du Qixi frowned slightly.

"Unthinkable?" Li Zhen sighed, "You have to remember Chiyou." That's a species. At the same time, there was also the Yellow Emperor - the Yellow Emperor is also a species. But the 'Yellow Emperor Fights Chi You' - what do you think they are clash with? Position issues. Not all species are bad. If I'm not mistaken, the bones of the Yellow Emperor have already been sent to the northern base by that one. ”

Du Qixi thought for a while: "The bones of the Yellow Emperor? You mean it's the same as Chiyou's bones? So...... I remember you could absorb those things. At that time, you absorbed Chiyou. Why didn't he absorb the bones? ”

"That's the evidence I'm going to give you, too." Li Zhen nodded, "That guy, just like me in his mouth, may be on the opposite side of humanity." And the Yellow Emperor is not in the same camp as him. That's why he didn't absorb me and didn't absorb the Yellow Emperor in the first placeβ€”the background consciousness would be affected. Maybe fused. Influenced by the consciousness of both...... He became a 'good guy'. ”

"As for me now...... It's a long story. Li Zhen pressed his leg and briefly recounted what had happened before.

Du Qixi didn't speak for a long time, and it took a long time before he let out a long breath and looked at Li Zhen in disbelief: "Are you telling me...... I'm the only one in this room now who is human? ”

"You can think of it that way." Li Zhen held out his hand to him. "Do you have any nutrients on you?"

Without hesitation, Du Qixi took out the injection contained in stainless steel on his chest and handed it to Li Zhen. Watching Li Zhen plunge the contents into his body. Hesitantly, he said, "So, the one in the northern base has done everything perfectly...... It's just that I didn't expect this little girl to save you. ”

Li Zhen sent out the needle and gasped a few times: "Yes." This shows that he has not had much contact with the door of truth for the time being. Not even a contact for the time being. His current purpose is the Spear of Longinus. ”

Seeing that Du Qixi's face showed a puzzled look again, he spread out his hand: "Okay, you don't know too much." To put it simply, the spear of Longinus, the thing in Christian legend that impaled Jesus after his death and became the spear of destiny because it was stained with the blood of the Son - he and I were looking for it. Finding this gun is the only way to easily kill the species. ”

"He's going to kill the species with that gun?" Du Qixi frowned, "Aren't they on one side?" ”

Li Zhen showed a look on his face, "You are so stupid? The expression comes. Du Qixi was stunned for a moment, and then whispered: "He also wants to absorb species!" ”

"That's right." Li Zhen smiled, "He feels that he is the Lord at the gate of truth." He wants to be stronger. ”

"But for what?"

Li Zhen shrugged: "This kind of thing...... Who would have thought? Isn't the same person how? Inexplicably reborn in another world, I gave birth to an inexplicable idea - I want to become stronger, stronger, stronger, and stronger, and then kill with people...... In the end, he didn't know why he wanted to become stronger, inexplicable. Of course, it is also possible that there is paranoia of victimization. ”

Du Qixi's expression was strange, and his lips moved: "You still have time to read online novels." ”

"I used to be a normal high school student. And I've found a few in this house these days. Li Zhen smiled faintly, "Stop the joke and get down to business." The madman's thoughts were hard to fathom, and he was still affected by the egg. Whether it's saying that he's poisoned on the Internet, or trying to destroy the world, there's no way I'm going to let him get it. ”

Du Qixi looked at him: "But...... What do you do? The news that power is about to be restored is well known to many. As far as I know, the whole country is now preparing for one thing – the moon landing. I didn't understand it before, but I was relieved to hear you say that. It was said that we were going to use 'Aerospace II', which was our newest space shuttle before the electronic equipment failed. The security must be pretty strict - and it's unlikely that any more people will trust you anytime soon...... He said that you have the ability to control others, then others will think that I am controlled by you. ”

Li Zhen snorted softly: "I never planned to show up again." First, as you said, it's hard to tell the truth from the false in a short period of time - the reason why you believe me is preconceived. Because I saved your life, you saw Yu Qingqing again, and I knew that I was seriously injured now, and I was willing to have a good talk. As for the others...... You and I both know the virtues of those big guys, and their actions will be to control the two of us - if you are outside, you must first settle inside. ”

"But neither he nor I will allow ourselves to be locked up, and there will be chaos. Then the moon landing will be in vain. However, according to Shen Mu's speculation, the power restoration time is only ten days, and he misses when he will have such an opportunity again. You know better than I do about the battle over there nowβ€”how's it going? ”

"Rather not optimistic." Du Qixi frowned, "Indonesia is finished, and Aolia is still holding on." But the local governor said that without more reinforcements, he would die for his country. ”

"So." Li Zhen sighed, "You have to follow my way." You see, I can also think about the 'big picture', and I'm playing a big game. ”

Du Qixi smiled reluctantly: "But what can you do?" When will you be able to recover like this? (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
