Chapter 89
"I don't know!" Goldfinger quickly denied.
"That's a bit of a cover-up, isn't it? Ji Xun and I have known each other for so long, I don't believe that when I met him before, you never woke up once. ”
"I just didn't wake up! I've been sleeping - ah! When Goldfinger asked himself to justify himself, he forgot the ferocity of Yue Zhao's estimate. When Yue Zhaoxi mercilessly poked Goldfinger into the slender wine jug, Goldfinger shouted in pain. Whimpering echoed in the flask, and the sound was buzzing. Goldfinger felt like his skull was going to break.
Yue Zhao estimated that she pulled her reddened fingers out of the spout, and with a "bang" sound, she didn't change her face under the numbness and labor pain after the tendons and flesh were squeezed, so she took a good time to look at the golden finger and then look at Ji Xun.
Ji Xun was a little disgusted with Yue Zhao's current demeanor, and was a little impatient: "What are you playing again?" Go back to the filthy children. ”
"Don't you want to know how I got here? Obviously, the road from the dirty side to you is very far, and you will definitely meet the people standing guard and keeping the spirit. ”
"So? How did you get here? ”
"Secret way." Yue Zhao pointed to the wall, and a large hole was broken.
Ji Xun glanced at it helplessly, walked over resignedly, brushed his hand lightly on it, and the wall returned to its original state.
Yue Zhao estimated and smiled again: "You close it, I'll kick it again when I leave later." ”
Ji Xun spread his hands and shrugged, unimpressed. Ji Xun began to ignore Yue Zhao's estimation and went out to practice daily.
Yue Zhao didn't care, and asked Goldfinger: "Aren't you going to say it yet?" Who is he? ”
"You guessed it, and you asked me!" Goldfinger complained weakly.
"He's with that mysterious person, and Ji Xun is that person's subordinate?"
"Don't be so prickly, lalala, mention that person......" Goldfinger was really worried.
"I just felt it, Ji Xun's appearance in the dark passage was too coincidental, and so was that person, it was too mysterious, I couldn't even see his face and his body shape clearly, and I even suspected that that person's voice was disguised."
Goldfinger was embarrassed, "You guessed everything, don't ask me." ”
"Don't you want to know the secrets of time and space? And why does the Academy of the Dead exist? ”
"You go ask Ji Xun."
"That's why I'm here. Ji Xun: I will also ask. Yue Zhao's voice became lower and lower, and her eyes became more and more ruthless when she looked at Goldfinger.
Ji Xun under the pear blossom tree seemed to feel something, and looked at the window, a small crack appeared on the edge of the window under the shade of the big tree, and Yue Zhao was also looking at him through that gap.
When Ji Xun put down his sword and walked into the house, the anger disappeared a lot, he wiped his sweat with a sweat towel, and then walked to the table where Yue Zhaoyi was sitting, took out the teapot and teacup on the table and changed a set, and when he came in again, he sat opposite Yue Zhaoyi, poured himself a bowl of cold water with the teapot, and drank it with a grunt.
Ji Xun's anger disappeared a lot, and he had a calm conversation with Yue Zhao.
Yue Zhaoxuan said to Ji Xun: "I remember when I first came to the Academy of the Dead, the first time I met Ji Xun, the golden finger ran down and jumped into your mouth, and poked your throat. Remember? ”
Before Ji Xun could say anything, Goldfinger suddenly realized: "I remember, at that time, Ji Xun was trampled under the feet of Yue Zhao, as if it was because Ji Xun pretended to be a little girl and tied up." ”
Yue Zhao estimated that the fish had been hooked, and suddenly turned his gaze to Goldfinger and asked: "When you first met Ji Xun, you were not afraid of him, which means that you didn't know at that time that Ji Xun was the messenger of the space transfer station." ”
Ji Xun didn't answer, the golden finger "I" a few times, and only after a while did he say: "Ji Xun is a newly promoted messenger, I haven't seen him before." ”
Yue Zhaoxi looked at Ji Xun again: "I need you to answer my question." ”
Ji Xun said indifferently: "You say." ”
"Why do you want to increase the number of soul crossers who are allowed to be released from the Academy of the Dead?"
Ji Xun paused for a few seconds with the hand holding the bowl to drink water, swallowed the cold water in his mouth, and replied casually: "You still remember." ”
"Besides, I beat you to death in front of the men's bathhouse, but after the black shadow flickered in front of me, you disappeared."
Ji Xun slammed the bowl on the table: "The first time we met, because of the dirty thing, you pressed me to the ground and pressed my life, and pulled my hair." The second time in the men's bathhouse, you tricked me into the bathhouse, pushed me off the bath, almost drowned me, and pulled me out and hung me from a tree, even if no one else was allowed to rescue me, you also made me fall to the ground and whipped me half to death. Last time, you put glass slag in my rice again, look at my teeth, my mouth......"
Ji Xun said, turned the skin of his mouth over, and showed her the broken flesh inside.
The flesh and blood in the mouth are still blurry, the roots of the teeth are still bleeding out, and the gums are bruised, and there is also a darker blood red.
Yue Zhao estimated that he was a little weak-hearted, and he couldn't bear to look at Ji Xun directly.
Ji Xun snorted and continued to drink water.
"When you were in the Closure Gorge, the dean wanted to suck your soul, how do you think you escaped? If I hadn't arrived in time, your current sanity would have been controlled by Duguji. ”
"I've heard Goldfinger say it." Yue Zhao estimated that he was even more empty-hearted.
"Forget it, I won't fight with you, the training camp starts every day, and I will send you out after the training camp, but I didn't expect you to be targeted by the dean."
Ji Xun was very generous, because he didn't really get angry with Yue Zhao, but for a while there was a kind of suffocation like a dog biting Lu Dongbin. Now that the moon is good, he doesn't care.
Ji Xun said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, the Academy of the Dead has received a lot of foreign souls, where they can survive as if they were alive, and there is a kind of soul that they are crossing souls, that is, they will be sent from one world to another." You know that the Academy of the Dead is actually part of the space transfer station, which is a temporary resting point for the souls, but because the space-time tunnel is broken, many souls are trapped in the Academy of the Dead, and it stands to reason that we, the messengers, don't care about these things, and should be managed by the dean. ”
"But why should the soul of the crossing fight for the place to go out? The spirits have left the transit station, and the tunnel is broken, and they can't go back to their original world, so what's the use of going out? ”
"Did you see a spirit walking outside the Academy of the Dead when you came?"
"See, they're just like me, they're out-of-body souls after death."
There was a rare solemnity in Ji Xun's expression, and he said, "Many souls have stayed in the Academy of the Dead for a long enough time, and they would rather be scattered than repeat the mechanical life. After all...... Life in the Academy of the Dead is very monotonous, and the Academy of the Dead itself is not much different. ”
Ji Xun said that he was a little sad, but Yue Zhao didn't rush it, waiting for him to continue.
Ji Xun said: "The soul that leaves the Academy of the Dead, if it can't pass through the space-time tunnel in time, it can only wander at the mouth of the tunnel, which is very dangerous, and the soul may be scattered at any time. The Academy of the Dead was originally used as a shelter, but now it ...... I'm afraid it's the most dangerous in the academy. ”
Yue Zhao estimated that Ji Xun didn't lie to her, but he also didn't tell her everything, such as why the academy was dangerous. But she guessed one thing, if what the mysterious man told her was true, then the mysterious person was most likely the manager of the space transfer station, and he himself was in the Academy of the Dead, but the suspicion was that Yue Zhao estimated that the mysterious person was very weak and seemed to be in danger.
The intermediary who shuttles through time and space - Goldfinger, as the maker of Goldfinger and the original owner of Goldfinger, who is the mysterious person who needs to cover himself with black fog? Even the voice is disguised.
The mysterious person and Ji Xun, the reason why Yue Zhao estimated that these two people were linked together was because, in the secret passage in the house together with the dirty child, when she saw the mysterious person wrapped in black fog, she found that under the locust tree in front of the men's bathhouse, the black shadow who rescued Ji Xun at her feet was the mysterious person.
Yue Zhaoxi suddenly remembered that the dean had called her to go to the interrogation hall. "Why did I feel like he knew me when I first met the dean in the interrogation hall?" ”
Ji Xun remembered something, and smiled contemptuously: "If I guessed correctly, you have been targeted since you entered the Academy of the Undead. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Yue Zhao estimated that there were more and more suspicions, the appearance of Duguman, and the inexplicable father-son relationship between the dean's family...... There are too many, Yue Zhao is confused in the hidden secrets of the Academy of the Dead, and he doesn't even know how to string these doubts into a line to find answers.
"Remember the Guardian in front of the Academy of the Dead?"
"Yes."
"That's the eyes of Duguji."
Yue Zhao was silent, biting her thin lip lightly, and her eyes glanced at the golden finger from time to time.
Ji Xun said again: "I'll listen...... The man said that when he made the toys, he was still in the mirror room, and at that time he had not yet managed the space-time transit station, so naturally he didn't know anyone from the Undead Academy at all. So your cheat only knows ...... That person. ”
"But it knows Duguji and knows his identity." Yue Zhaowei immediately retorted.
"That's because it can sense power in a person, and that's the ability that that person gives it."
"Then why can't I sense your power?"
Ji Xun laughed self-deprecatingly: "What power can I have?" ”
Yue Zhao estimated that Ji Xun didn't want to say it. She didn't think that the person who could make the entire Academy of the Dead call "Ji Gongzi" would be a mortal. After being silent for a while, Yue Zhao estimated that he asked again: "Why does that person make toys?" What is the Mirror Room? ”
"The mirror room is his home, he is the manager of heaven and earth, and when he becomes an adult, he needs to be alone there to keep his light and obscurity. He was bored, so he used his ability to make a lot of toys. ”
"You seem to think I'll never go to a place like the Mirror Room?"
"Yes, you can't go there, so it doesn't matter if you know what's going on in those places, because those things don't concern you in the first place."
Yue Zhao smiled inexplicably: "Can I ask you, why did you say that you sent me out of the Academy of the Dead after the training?" You seem pretty sure you'll get me a spot. ”
"You forgot? I am an emissary sent by the Space Administrator to the Academy of the Dead, and my mission is to arrange for those souls to leave. ”
