Chapter 280: The Stars Shine (37)
On the other side, a tall and handsome man was sitting in front of the operating table, looking at the screen in front of him with a gloomy face. At this moment, the adjutant was also looking at his own head official with a dishful face, with a look of wanting to say something.
obviously cares about Miss Xi so much, but he has to pretend that he doesn't care and doesn't poke it, but he is really blind to that good face.
He complained in his heart, and on the surface, he had to put on a serious appearance, and said to the boss: "If you have any questions, I suggest telling Miss Xi directly, she will understand you." β
However, obviously, his suggestion was not covered by the other party's consideration, Xi Rongqing's face was so dark that he almost wanted to go to water, and the mask that faced those people in the past was completely withdrawn, and the whole person was like a cold iron in the pool of water, with a sharp edge leaking out, giving people a terrifying chill.
After a long time, I heard Xi Rongqing's words that seemed to be whispering to myself: "I feel that my emotions have been too wrong recently, as if I am being dragged by something, I can't control myself at all, and I don't feel like myself anymore." β
The adjutant was often in the army, and he immediately caught the emotions in his general's words, and his heart was shocked, and the first thing that came out of his head was a conspiracy.
"Admiral Xi, did Miss Xi do something to you?"
After hearing this, Xi Rong turned his head lightly, a pair of sharp eagle-like eyes stared at his adjutant's face, the originally handsome face had completely ignored the perfection on that face, and only the instinctive fear of the strong man's momentum remained.
The adjutant swallowed, trembling as if he were a weak prey stared at by a beast, but he didn't know how to get out of this dangerous range.
"I ......"
"An An is not wrong, but I feel that I will hurt her now." Xi Rongqing affirmed.
The adjutant was speechless for a while, and said in his heart that there was nothing wrong, it was clearly that he had poured a lot of ecstasy soup into people! However, looking at the attitude of the self-patriarch to protect the calf like this, he didn't dare to ask, and he didn't dare to say.
At this time, he suddenly blessed his soul and caught another trace of the chief's words, and he was shocked: "Boss, you, you, you...... Do you mean your mental strength ......? β
Xi Rongqing nodded with a serious face, he held his head, and looked helpless: "I feel that the mental power in my brain is getting more and more powerful, I feel that I can't stand it, and it is very likely that I will not be able to control myself at any moment and ......"
The adjutant also understood the other unfinished meanings of his words, and his face showed a trace of worry, as well as deep regret - the general had made a great contribution to the empire, but he did not expect him to ......
To be honest, mental force rampage is not a rare thing for soldiers, and the main reason for the mental force riot is that the soldiers are fighting excessively on the battlefield and forcibly using their mental power, which makes him always in a very active and excited state, and it is more and more difficult to control.
Faced with such a problem, the empire set up a special spiritual power channeling association to help those soldiers who were fighting on the battlefield and prevent them from having an impossible impact on their bodies due to the collapse of mental power. It's a pity that spiritual power can only be understood and cannot be spoken, it is an illusory product, and any medicine can only be suppressed temporarily, and the effect is never obvious.
This kind of spiritual power riot, the higher the level, the more dangerous it is, the more difficult it is to treat, and for people like Xi Rongqing, the spiritual power has naturally reached the peak, and there is no other way than to suppress it, once it completely breaks out, I am afraid that the whole person will be completely finished.
Thinking of this, the adjutant looked at his own head official with a dishful face, and looked like he wanted to speak and stopped. Thinking that this strongest admiral in the empire was likely to die like this, unable to continue his mission and ambitions, the adjutant felt sad in his heart,
understood the adjutant's thoughts, but Xi Rongqing didn't break this, and looked fearless, which was really free and easy.
And at this time, Xi Rongqing seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked, "By the way, what did the Zhou family say?"
The adjutant was speechless for a while, and at such a critical moment, the self-appointed head officer did not forget to eat flying vinegar.
He complained in his heart, and on the surface, he still had to put on a serious appearance, and respectfully reported on the problems of the past few days: "You moved out, and the head of the Zhou family was very happy to express his gratitude to the general. As he spoke, his eyes squinted to a delicate box beside him.
The box is very low-key, there is not even a pattern on it, but this does not mean that it is low, if there are knowledgeable people here, they will beat their chests and shout "too luxurious", this is a hundred years of the empire only produced a red nanmu! Latest
However, at this time, the priceless box lay quietly in the corner, becoming a dusty container for things. Just from the box, you can see that the value of the things in it is definitely not simple.
Xi Rongqing has always disliked these, especially when he receives valuable things from other families, this network involves interests, either he owes favors or is tied to a certain family.
He looked in the direction of the adjutant with great displeasure, and his eyes were full of warnings.
The adjutant smiled bitterly, and his expression became more serious. He was afraid that the admiral would misunderstand what he meant, so he hurriedly said: "The subordinates know that this gift is wrong, but the Zhou family has not made it clear that there is anything more involved, and it is ...... And ......" he hesitated a little when he said this, his eyes wandered for a while, and just when Xi Rong was about to lose control of his emotions, he hurriedly said, "You can see the contents of this box, this is something that even you can't refuse!" β
Hearing this, Xi Rongqing's face was slightly stunned, his eyes fell on the box, and his fingers were easily opened, and after seeing the contents clearly, he was completely silent.
As his own lieutenant said, this is something that even he himself can't refuseβa mental soothing potion.
Don't look at the name, it sounds like a public healing potion, but there is absolutely no such thing on the market, and the most in general hospitals is only mental power control potion, which belongs to the same type as tranquilizers. However, mental power soothing drugs can effectively treat overly irritable mental power, which cannot be circulated in the market or even military hospitals, because they have no raw materials!
The raw material of the mental power soothing potion is yacon, which belongs to the fruit of the snow lotus. That kind of saying only matures once every 100 years in the icebergs and snowfields, but not every flower can bear fruit, and many more flowers will freeze to death before they last until then.
This kind of fruit with a small probability is priceless and marketable, I don't know which way this Zhou family went to get one by luck, and also found the empire's special pharmacist to refine this potion!
Xi Rongqing's face was ugly, and he asked in a deep voice: "Did the Zhou family really not give any conditions?"
The adjutant shook his head affirmatively.
However, the worry on Xi Rongqing's face did not decrease by a point, but became more. This also means that the mind of the head of the Zhou family is deeper than he imagined, and the Zhou family wants to get more benefits from him, and the position he wants to climb is higher!
Xi Rong snorted coldly, and felt a little more hostile to the Zhou family in his heart - if he is not greedy enough, he will be killed by himself sooner or later!
However, obviously, his idea may only be a possible belief that may happen in the future, and it is not within the scope of Xi Rongqing's consideration of cooperation with the Zhou family, his fingers are tapping on the table little by little, and the rhythmic sound seems to be beating on the human heart, which makes people's hearts save little by little. At this moment, Xi Rongqing was like a leopard hunting, with no scruples about the edge of his body, giving people a chill of fright.
After a long time, I heard Xi Rong say lightly: "I accepted this thing, and I will give a gift as a return gift in a while, and you can help me transfer it to the Zhou family, and thank you by the way." β
The adjutant's mind is very transparent, and he can do this position, and he immediately understands the twists and turns with a little dialing, and immediately captures the meaning of his general's words, his body is straight, his feet touch and salute a military salute, and he said loudly: "Yes!"
waved his hand and asked the adjutant to step back, Xi Rong lowered his head and continued to look at the screen in his hand, at this moment, the farce just now had disappeared, and the injured girl also quickly left somewhere to lick her wounds secretly, leaving Zhou Fan in place and Zhuo Ran with a hideous and resentful face, the two of them hugged each other kissing and honey, not caring that this was still a public place.
Xi Rong stared at the face that had not faded away from jealousy, and sneered coldly: "You can't even compare one in ten thousand, it's really stupid." The adjutant wiped his sweat on the side, and said in his heart that although Miss Xi was better than the white lotus, this brainless blowing was too much.
He paused, and said, "Sir, I have an ideaβ"
Before he finished speaking, a familiar sharp gaze swept towards this place, and the adjutant swallowed his saliva, feeling that his legs were now a little weak, and he trembled all over, and he almost knelt down.
"I ...... I think it's a good time now, Miss Xi must be very sad now, and needs people's comfort and support, you go over and brush up on your favorability now, Miss Xi will definitely be very moved. β
Hearing this, Xi Rongqing's eyes flashed, revealing a little deep thought.
"You're right," Xi Rongqing's movements were very decisive, and he did it directly when he thought of it. He stood up and pointed his finger on a communicator to go out, "Help me locate the place where Xi Gu'an is, and send it to me immediately." β
