Chapter 368: Warning (Thank you for your monthly ticket support, plus a new chapter)
"I did die, but I just stopped breathing for 40 seconds, and then spent more time recuperating in Tahiti." Coulson smiled, and then said with a serious face: "I'm sorry, Director Fury let me see you and I must say goodbye to you, he hid the fact that I was still alive for the sake of the development of the situation." ”
"To motivate the Avengers to unite, I can understand that." Ling Xiao shook his head indifferently and said, "I'm afraid you still have to tell the captain and Tony about this apology, the two of them have been sad about your matter for a long time." ”
"I will." Coulson sat down on the sofa under the guidance of Ling Xiao, and then said with a straight face: "Ling, speaking of which, I really want to thank you, if it wasn't for the pill you gave me, I might not have survived the arrival of the medical team." ”
Ling Xiao sighed slightly, and said inexplicably with some sadness; "That's all I can do, and if I could have been taken a step, none of these things would have happened."
Although Coulson felt that Ling Xiao's words were a little wrong, he still said comfortingly: "It's not your fault, the damage caused by Loki is too great, S.H.I.E.L.D. killed and injured at least dozens of elite agents in the battle of the Helicarrier, and the entire Helicarrier was paralyzed, and then it opened the space door to guide the aliens to invade the Earth, and the entire Manhattan has not recovered until now." ”
"Fortunately, now that Loki has been brought back to Asgard and imprisoned, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to do anything in the future!" Ling Xiao poured a cup of tea for the two of them before asking, "By the way, how could Fury let you lead a team alone?" ”
"There's no way around it, thank you!" Coulson took the teacup and took a sip before continuing: "Since the Great War in New York, a series of accidents such as mutants and super warriors have appeared all over the world, and my team has always been an emergency response team. ”
"Huh!" Ling Xiao smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and said: "We are all our own people, if you need help, you can just open your mouth, but, Phil, you also have to pay attention, I found that you have changed a lot from before, and your personality is much more extroverted." ”
"I feel it too!" Coulson couldn't help but laugh along, he had never talked so much in the past.
"Just extroverted?" After Coulson left, Melinda stood in the doorway, looking at his back and sighing inexplicably.
After the three chatted for a while, Coulson took the initiative to say goodbye and leave, but Melinda stayed under the pretext of doing skin care.
"Of course it's not all!" Ling Xiao watched the door close again, and then took Melinda back to the living room, and only after sitting down did he continue: "Didn't you notice, since he was reborn, many of his little habits have changed, and his temper has become much shorter, and also, haven't you noticed, Mei, after talking to me for a while, he mentioned Tahiti three times, and that place made a deep impression on him." Tell me, May, what's going on? ”
"I don't know exactly what that is." Melinda shook her head and said, "I know that the director organized a medical team to perform several surgeries on him, using some technology from the Chiritas. Ling, what do you think about this matter? ”
"What do I think?" Ling Xiao glanced at Melinda in some surprise, then shook his head and said, "What do I think, is it useful, you have already done everything." Moreover, this kind of thing is not uncommon in Eastern mythology, and there are many things about borrowing corpses to resurrect souls. ”
If it were another S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, she might not know what it meant to borrow a corpse to resurrect a soul, but Melinda was different, she knew what Ling Xiao was talking about as soon as she heard it, and quickly shook her head and said: "Impossible, there is no such thing, this is definitely Coulson's right, otherwise he would not have been able to hide it from the eyes of so many of us!" ”
"I know he's Coulson, of course." Ling Xiao chuckled lightly and said, "I'm just using the analogy of borrowing corpses to return souls. However, Mei, I still need to warn you, no matter who you are, coming back to life after dying for so long will inevitably have a lot of sequelae, and the physical part is fine, but the trouble is that his soul has been damaged. And even though Coulson looks fine now, how long will he live in the future, hehe......"
"What do you mean by that?" Melinda frowned and said, "Do you think that Coulson's damage to his soul will affect his body, and even endanger his life?" ”
"It's very possible." Ling Xiao sighed, but then he shook his head again and said, "I may be able to do it physically, but when it comes to the soul aspect, I can't do anything!" ”
Melinda, as Coulson's old partner for many years, was naturally very concerned about his situation, and couldn't help but ask: "Then what kind of yin water of yours can't work for him?" ”
"Do you really think Coulson didn't use the Taiyin Water?" Ling Xiao sneered slightly and said, "Otherwise, do you think that Nick Fury bought so much Taiyin Renshui from me and used it for something, do you really think that he is just for Dr. Banner?" ”
From the first time he saw Coulson, Ling Xiao smelled a strong smell of Taiyin Water from his body, thinking about the time when Hill was in a hurry to take a bottle of Taiyin Water from him, now it seems that there should be a problem with Coulson's operation.
Hearing Ling Xiao say this, Melinda's face became more and more heavy, the reason why she would come out of the mountain again and join Coulson's newly formed elite team was to accept the task of Director Fury to monitor Coulson's every move at all times.
Taking a deep breath, Melinda raised her head, looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Ling, what you told me today, I will go back and ...... to Director Fury"
"Who?" Ling Xiao suddenly let out a cold snort, interrupting Melinda's words, and with a flick of his left hand, the Obscure Sword had turned into a ray of light and shot towards the edge of the pool outside, and the next moment, a muffled snort was heard, followed by a "bang" sound of falling into the water.
"Melinda, it seems that you have brought another guest with you this time." Ling Xiao chuckled, stood up and walked towards the backyard.
Melinda's face was also full of anger, she didn't expect that with her own and Coulson's methods, she would still be followed, and even brought all the way to Ling Xiao, how could she not feel angry. At the same time, Melinda couldn't help but start to be suspicious, there were not many people who knew that she and Coulson had come to find Ling Xiao today, but there was still a problem, which could only show that in this elite team that Coulson had temporarily formed, it had been mixed into the sand by others.
Standing on the edge of the pool, at a glance is the almost vertical steep mountaintop, under the cliff of dozens of meters, a wooden boat does not know when it stopped there, and on the sea on the side lies a middle-aged man with a slender figure wearing a gray-black coat, and in the center of the middle-aged man's eyebrows, there seems to be a shallow blood mark, not only that, in the middle of the mountain wall, there is a clear blood mark left on the almost transparent glass.
Since the last time the villa was burglarized, Ling Xiao has done something on the cliff of his villa, no one would have thought that Ling Xiao would actually plant several pieces of thin glass half a meter long and almost transparent in the center of the mountain wall.
It's the same today, the middle-aged man lying on the sea didn't know what was in his hands and feet, and he let him climb up the straight and steep cliff in defiance of gravity, if he hadn't noticed that the glass was scratched, I was afraid that the conversation between Ling Xiao and Melinda would have been overheard.
"Do you need me to call the police?" Ling Xiao turned around and glanced at Melinda, the phone was already in his hand.
"No!" Melinda's face sank like water, and she said in a cold voice: "We will handle this matter by S.H.I.E.L.D. ourselves, and you don't have to interfere." ”
After saying that, Melinda dialed the phone directly, and not long after, two yachts came from the sea in the distance and stopped on the side of the wooden boat.
Several elite agents from the Los Angeles branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. quickly carried the corpse on the water onto the boat, and then dragged the boat and left directly.
