Chapter 42 - Not of this era

If you want to see a corpse in death, you probably can't do it.

If Ji Xun died, he must have been burned to ashes in the flames of the Lingzhi Wood, or turned into pus in the acid rain.

Everyone can only hope that he is still alive.

After waking up from the fire of Lingzhimu, the only thing that Sun Wen felt comfortable with was that her people successfully caught the surviving Young Master Ji Xun.

He probably didn't expect the ignited psionic wood to bring a sudden acid rain, and he was sitting in the ruins of Night Street in a daze.

When he saw Dayanwen, he didn't get up, and kept the appearance of a dead dog with dementia.

"Ji Xun," Tian Wen looked at this gray figure, and could barely see the glamorous appearance of the original Young Master Ji Zhou from him, "You'd better explain to all of us what the hell is going on." ”

Ji Xun was unmoved.

"Ji Xun!" Dayman raised her voice, and not kicking him on the head was her last quality, "Why did you burn the Lingzhi Wood, why did you destroy the entire Jizhou City, this is also your home!" ”

Hearing this, Ji Xun shook his body and raised his head.

There was a look of madness in his eyes.

"I didn't want to destroy it, I just learned a secret."

His bloodshot eyes scanned the crowd in front of him, "Now, it's your turn to bear these secrets together. ”

"You know what? My father, the city lord of Jizhou City, is 265 years old this year. ”

"He never thought of giving the position of city lord to anyone, including his own heir! The original appearance of Lingzhimu is not at all what the legend says, it is a monster, and it once killed half of the people of Jizhou City! And my father, now the lord of the city has buried these truths, and let all the people of the city serve their enemies! ”

Ji Xun frantically said everything he knew, but found that the expressions of the group of people in front of him had not changed much.

He was stunned, "Why aren't you surprised?" ”

"Why aren't you just as annoyed as I am, crazy?!"

Zhou Xinyi wanted to say, in fact, he already knew.

Although Brandy and Jiang Yi didn't know the details, they had already expected it.

Daytime is simply calm, "As expected." ”

"If you don't get the position of the city lord, you will destroy the entire Ji Zhou, is this the reason why you set fire to the Lingzhi Wood?"

Ji Xun said loudly, "I said I didn't want to destroy it!" ”

"I hate the Psi Wood, the hypocritical deceiver has no right to grow in our city, so I want to ruin it, but ......"

"But I didn't expect Lingzhimu to destroy Jizhou City in turn?" Zhou Xin said in a deep voice.

Ji Xun nodded in annoyance.

The two brothers of the Ji family are the same stupid.

Zhou Xinyi felt that this thing had happened absurdly.

The cause and effect were now clear, but he still found it very bizarre.

A good young master Ji Zhou, just knowing a secret, planned a thorough plan, and even cooperated with the last heir of the Blood Rabbit Clan, just to vent his anger?

Zhou Xinyi thought of the mysterious group of white-clothed disciples and asked, "What is your relationship with the white-clothed disciples?" ”

Ji Xun snorted, "Affiliation." ”

"They stole Lipple's body and turned to me in desperation, asking me to shelter them, and from then on, they did things for me."

“…… They also told me these secrets, and I later investigated them privately, and they were indeed true. ”

Zhou Xinyi thinks, how can this routine be familiar with when they deceived Ji An in the first place?

"Guess why they contacted you, not Officer Myle, Officer Zengus?"

Young Master Ji Xun really thought about it seriously, "Maybe I was the only one who hadn't participated in the hunt at that time. ”

"No, it's because you're stupid."

Ji Xun: "......"

"They found out that the body they took away was not the dead Lipple official, so they took the next step and used you as a substitute for the dead, while they accomplished their purpose and slipped away."

It was probably the same group that later instigated Vir to steal the ciphertext.

If they want to use firewood, they must make it willing to be used.

As the heir, Will knows his mission, but the native Will does not, and the stolen ciphertext is the best evidence to convince him.

It just so happened that the Vir family was poor and had no idea of living for a long time, and in the end, the whole family died generously, contributing to the end of the Lingzhi Wood being burned to the point of losing their minds.

So everything in this disaster was planned by the white-clothed cultists.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xinyi sighed deeply.

Can't deal with it.

The strength of any white-clothed cultist is far superior to them, even if they are called the successor of Quan Jizhou, the odds of winning are not more than fifty percent.

After all, the system of successors has only been around for about four years......

And they don't have to deal with it, there is no point in seeking revenge in the light curtain, after all, this is not the real history.

"The current Jizhou City is no longer suitable for the heir to stay," Brandy said, "the city walls have been destroyed, the monsters of the wasteland have poured in, and this place will soon become the burial place of the heir." ”

"The light curtain itself exists to help the successor develop, and a light curtain that is far more dangerous than an opportunity does not need to be kept for a long time."

Zhou Xin Yi said, "In other words, the light curtain will end soon?" ”

"That's right," Bai Lan nodded, "and the last time is for confirmation and farewell." ”

"Light curtains? Successor? ”

Suddenly, Day's voice came from behind him, "What's that?" ”

Oops, how was it heard by the aborigines.

Daytime looked at him with suspicion, "What the hell does that mean?" ”

Brandy smiled, and said without changing his face, "It's just a term between the heirs." ”

"Mr. Judge is also the heir?"

Zhou Xinyi did not answer immediately.

He did not yet know what the Aboriginal definition of an heir was, and perhaps in the Aboriginal perception, the heir would conflict with his status as a judge.

And he remembered that Dayman had always disliked the heirs.

Seeing that Zhou Xin was embarrassed, Jiang Yi said, "What are you doing with so many questions?" ”

"You are not the successor, nor are you our partner, and some things are inconvenient for you to know."

Jiang Yi doesn't like to beat around the bush, seeing that she said it so bluntly, she no longer dwells on it.

"I'm sorry, I'm just curious."

As she spoke, she glanced at Zhou Xinyi with resentful eyes, and said in an aggrieved tone, "I thought we could talk about some personal affairs...... Looks like I'm overstepping. ”

Hearing this, in Jiang Yi's eyes, the relationship between the two suddenly became confusing.

...... "Girl, don't deliberately create a misunderstanding.

Zhou Xinyi couldn't help but think of the scene where Daywen helped him contain the Myler officials and dragged him away from a boulder, he did owe her something.

Zhou Xinyi understands that you must be sincere in treating people.

Even if he is about to leave the light curtain, it is not a reason to perfunctory at the last moment.

What's the difference between that and a scumbag who walks away with his pants up......

After making up his mind, Zhou Xinyi compromised, "Okay, you ask, I can answer you questions that are not too sensitive." ”

"So Mr. Judge is really the heir?"

“…… Right. ”

"Zhou Xinyi, I can call you that," Day asked, "what is the heir?" ”

Zhou Xinyi frowned, the owner of Night Street would not know what the inheritor was?

No, the aborigines themselves do not know enough about the heirs.

The next words of the day asked Zhou Xinyi's question, "Since the first time I came into contact with the heirs, I have felt that their identities and motives are very bizarre, and I think other people think so too. ”

"Some of them go together, some of them kill each other, the successor sometimes seems to never exist, but then appears out of thin air at a certain time, and even some of the officials are your people."

"So far, I can only think that you are a group of people who share the same beliefs, but you are independent of each other."

Zhou Xinyi said, "Actually, this title comes from our ability. ”

"People who have the inheritance of the strong and do not belong to this era are called inheritors."

This is the most popular explanation he can use for the aborigines.

"People who don't belong to this era......" Dayan's eyes lit up, "no wonder, this can explain ......"

"Why would they suddenly intervene in inexplicable events, and they don't care about the consequences of those things?"

"They don't care about the survival of this era, you don't belong here at all!"

"Or that the heir has long known what will happen in the future, so it's like being spoiled in advance, and he has no interest in the story of this period......"

Daywen seemed to be caught in the brainstorming she brought, and as she speculated, a more poignant and wonderful world took shape in her mind!

Miss Dayman is really a smart person...... Listening to her speculation, Zhou Xinyi couldn't help but sigh.

It's not that they're not entirely uninterested, it's just that some of the heirs aren't willing to invest emotionally in a civilization that has perished.

But this kind of thing, he can't say to the day.

At Shang Tianwen's bright gaze, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

"Zhou Xinyi, what were the people of your time like? Will they learn from the past and become wise? Is their society more advanced than it is now? ”

“…… No. ”

Zhou Xinyi recalled his life in reality, due to the distortion of the system, people's lives have fallen into a vicious circle, and it has been worse year by year.

"No matter how the times progress, people will always make the same mistakes."

How can mortals with a lifespan of less than a hundred years be required to master the wisdom of thousands of years in history?

Daytime also quieted down, it wasn't the answer she wanted, but it wasn't the worst answer either.

Zhou Xinyi sighed and said, "History rolls forward......"

"I know."

Day Q&A, "Mankind has always been the same. ”

"Ha, that's right, is there such a saying in this era?"

"No, I made it up."

Dayman smiled helplessly, perhaps the moment she asked the question, she had already guessed the answer to the question.

"All in all, I'm sorry, I didn't have a chance to see the follow-up of Ji Zhou City."

Suddenly, the day question in front of Zhou Xinyi's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and an invisible force pulled him away, making day man's beautiful face become more and more blurred.

He knew that the light curtain was coming to an end and that it was time for him to go.

But Dayan's lips were still open, and a voice came from far away, "Then will we have a chance to meet again?" I don't like the heir, but I'd like to make you a friend. ”

Zhou Xinyi said hurriedly, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can'......"

Her figure also completely melted into the dense fog at this moment.

I don't know if she heard it.
