Chapter 15: A Journey of Disappointment
"What's next, how do you solve it?" Looking at the upside-down people on the ground, Jack asked with a hint of hesitation.
It was the first time he saw Liu Hong give full play to his strength. That kind of speed, if it is not suppressed by fire, even with a gun is useless! After all, no one can keep up.
"They're all up to you!" After Liu Hong finished speaking, he casually handed over all these troubles to Jack, and then looked at William, who was stunned.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Liu Hong looking at him, William asked a little uneasily.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Hong didn't say anything to William, but turned to Jack and said, "Look good on William!" If something is taken from here, this place will collapse! Especially where the gravitational ore! After speaking, Liu Hong pointed to the black ore on the two sculptures at the entrance of the corridor.
Looking at Liu Hong's hand, Jack and William both saw the ore, but their reactions were completely different, Jack was calm, and William was a little greedy.
"And what about the dragon balls on it?" Since Liu Hong had already pointed out that the ore could not be taken, William would not be bored with himself, but pointed to the dragon ball that he had suddenly found now and asked.
"The ore is there to stabilize that dragon ball, you say?" Squinting his eyes, Liu Hong asked with a smile.
Turning his face away, William sneered: "It's not too awkward to talk like this!" ”
Seeing that William was no longer talkative, Liu Hong restrained the smile on his face and reminded Jack: "Say hello to the lover of your dreams, let's go out first, and do whatever you want next." ”
"The East You Want"
"I've got what I wanted! You don't have to care! Patting his chest, Liu Hong interrupted Jack's words.
"Okay!"
After Jack and Concubine Li Yushu said hello, in the next time, Liu Hong, Jack and William dragged and resisted to get Mr. Gu and others outside the blasted hole, and then contacted a helicopter to come over and send them to Xi'an.
How to deal with it, as Liu Hong said, was handed over to Jack, and he didn't have any intention of mixing it.
After leaving the tomb of the First Emperor, he said hello to Jack and hurried to Hong Kong.
Everything else can be put down, including the thousand-year-old relationship between Jack and Concubine Li. He's done everything he needs to do, and there's no need to worry about it like his parents.
Back on Jack's ship, Liu Hong did some cleaning and took out the elixir of life from the tomb of the First Emperor on the sofa in the living room.
He took out the black-brown elixir and played with it carefully, then stuffed it into his mouth.
The black-brown elixir was very hard to the touch, like a stone, but when it was mixed with saliva after the mouth, it immediately softened, although it did not melt in the mouth like in some novels, but there was still a crisp in the mouth.
After chewing a few times, Liu Hong didn't taste anything, so he simply swallowed it, using internal force to assist digestion.
It's safer to take the medicine or eat it in the stomach! Especially precious!
Liu Hong first felt a chill spread from his stomach and spread to his whole body, as if he had been immersed in cold groundwater.
If there were outsiders, they would find that Liu Hong's whole person was trembling now, and his skin was blue-black, as if he had been frostbitten.
Slowly, Liu Hong felt that the cold turned into coolness, and gradually there was no trace of feeling.
After opening his eyes, Liu Hong felt it, and found that his body seemed to have changed from side to side, but he couldn't say it, so he asked the time shuttle, "How is it?" Does the elixir work? ”
"It's almost useless." The time shuttle replied blandly.
"It's useless!?" Liu Hong suddenly exclaimed: "Why? ”
"This elixir is really immortal for other people, but for you it, it's just chicken ribs, you can have it, you can't have it." Regarding Liu Hong's question, the time shuttle explained unhurriedly: "The effect of this elixir is to lock the essence of people's life, that is, people will not get old. But there is no effect on the slightest increase in vitality. What you need is something that really adds vitality. ”
Liu Hong's mood suddenly fell.
When he got the elixir of life, he really felt like he had gone to heaven!
But what about now?
It's hell!
"It's a waste of work." In a lonely tone, after Liu Hong spit out such a sentence, he fell back, as if he had been pulled out of his bones, and collapsed softly on the sofa.
"It's not a waste of work. At least it can lock your life force and bring you a lot of convenience. ”
"Comfort?" For the first time, Liu Hong seemed to hear the taste of comfort in the voice of the time shuttle.
"Not comfort, just stating a fact." The voice of the time traveler is still so flat, where is the taste of comfort.
"How nice you said you were comforting!" Liu Hong smiled self-deprecatingly, then stared at the ceiling in a daze.
He really needs someone to comfort him! This kind of blow.
A few days later, when Jack, who had taken care of everything, returned to his boat with Concubine Lifei Yushu and Nangong Yan, he saw Liu Hong fishing in the bow of the boat, but now he did not hold the fishing rod, but covered his face with a sun hat and lay peacefully on the chair.
"So interested?" With joy in his tone, Jack stepped forward and patted Liu Hong.
"It's weird to be in good spirits!" took off the sun hat, and saw that Liu Hong's eyes were bloodshot at this time, and the whole person looked haggard and abnormal.
"What's wrong with you?" Startled by Liu Hong's appearance in front of him, Jack asked worriedly, "Is there something wrong?" Could it be that there is a problem with the things that were obtained from the mausoleum of the First Emperor before? ”
Jack already knows a little bit about Liu Hong. In terms of Liu Hong's physique, it is definitely not an easy task to make his eyes bloodshot and haggard! It could only be that it was hit!
And now it can hit Liu Hong, that is, what Liu Hong took in the mausoleum of the First Emperor!
Raising his eyes and looking at Jack, Liu Hong said weakly: "It seems that you know quite well." ”
"That's it! Yushu has already told me that there is an elixir in Qin Shi Huang's funeral goods! After communicating with Concubine Li, Jack learned that the First Emperor's funeral goods were elixirs: "Is that medicine useless?" ”
After knowing that Liu Hong got the elixir, Jack was very jealous. Because it's a true elixir! There are living examples!
But after considering Liu Hong's ability, Jack already knew that he was not capable of taking it back. Because of his personality and persistence, he is really unwilling to do something.
But now that he sees Liu Hong like this, I don't know why, Jack's heart is filled with a hint of joy.
Maybe it's people. Even if you don't want to do it, you can't restrain your thoughts.
"It's just chicken ribs!" Putting the sun hat on his face, Liu Hong replied weakly and then stopped making a sound.
Seeing Liu Hong's behavior like this, Jack also consciously did not disturb Liu Hong, and took Concubine Li Yushu and Nangong Yan into the ship.
After the three of Jack entered the boat, Liu Hong raised his sun hat a little: "Good heart!" This sentence is an evaluation of Jack and a reflection on himself!
He's been depressed for days! Now that Jack is back, it's time to do something.
There are not a few days left before he leaves this world!
The hook next to him moved, as if a fish had been hooked! After reaching out and taking the fishing rod to try the feel, pick it up vigorously.
A palm-sized fish has been caught!
"Is it a good omen?" Liu Hong's spirit lifted a little.
In fact, Liu Hong had noticed that the rod had moved several times, but he was not in the mood to lift the rod before.
After putting the fish back into the sea, Liu Hong patted his cheeks and set off to walk into the boat.
In the living room, Jack was talking to Concubine Liyu and Nangong Yan about various modern things, although they had chatted all the way on the way here, but how could these things be finished in a while?
So as soon as Liu Hong entered the living room, he heard a lot of unintelligible words coming out of Jack's mouth, and Nangong Yan also interjected occasionally to ask a few words.
As for Concubine Liyu Shu, she is completely like a young girl, staring at Jack who has been talking about Kankan.
Seeing Liu Hong come in, Jack stopped talking and looked at Liu Hong.
"Liu Hong, you're just in time!" Grinning at Liu Hong, Jack said a little excitedly, "You know no!" After I reported the true location of the First Emperor's mausoleum, how much compensation did the state give? ”
"And compensation?" Hearing the compensation, Liu Hong felt that this seemed to be a little inconsistent with some phenomena!
"Of course! How could there be no compensation! Ignoring Liu Hong's somewhat strange expression, Jack continued to say excitedly: "This time the state has given 1 million RMB in compensation!" ”
"Oh, it's just 1 million." This is in line with certain phenomena! Liu Hong's answer was a bit careless.
"Of course, 1 million is not much, but the key is some connections here, which is not something that can be measured by how much money!"
"I'm useless with connections, I'm leaving." Well, these things are really good, but for Liu Hong, he is not from this world, what is the use of those connections?
"Where are you going?"
"Go where I'm supposed to go!"
"What do you want?" Although Liu Hong got the elixir of life, but seeing Liu Hong's appearance, Jack felt that maybe the elixir might be useless, otherwise why did he see Liu Hong fishing on the bow of the boat as soon as he came back?
"Give me some cash if you want to. I work well. "To tell the truth, what Liu Hong needs now is really just cash, and he really doesn't need anything else.
"Then give you all the 1 million given by the state!"
"Thank you so much! But you should take it out and give it to me. Hearing Jack say that 1 million was given to himself, Liu Hong's heart trembled.
"Take it out? Aren't you too troublesome? How good is it to give you a card? Jack was stunned for Liu Hong's request.
This year, there is a lot of convenience! How troublesome it is to carry cash! Liu Hong doesn't look like the kind of person who is uneasy when he doesn't have the money in his hand.
"Works."
Jack was completely speechless by Liu Hongyi's two words of shock.
A few days later, in the early morning, Liu Hong walked into Jack's room with a box of RMB under Jack's puzzled gaze.
After smiling at Jack, Liu Hong said to the time shuttle in his heart: "Shuttle, go back!" ”
"Understood. Life Drain begins, Life Drain is completed. In Space Node Connection, the space node is connected. Turn on Void Travel. 3.2.1。 ”
In Jack's incredible gaze, Liu Hong disappeared into the world of "Mythology" in an instant.
