Chapter Seventy-One - Worthy of a Writer

Ji Lin also quickly realized his gaffe, and said steadily, "No, it's nothing, I have had a few encounters with the official McVul. ”

"What kind of person do you think she is?"

"It's serious, it's not easy to ......get along with," Ji Lin thought about the words to describe her, "It's not new, it's solemn and strong, and it's like her." ”

What is this, the poetry of this era?

is worthy of being a writer, and speaking is literary.

Zhou Xinyi asked honestly, "What does this mean?" ”

Ji Lin was stunned for a moment, "You travel around, you may not know much about Ji Zhou's poetry, this poem means that her thoughts are still stuck in decades ago, and she is very serious and stubborn, she will sternly point out the places where others do not match her own concepts, and she will not change her way of thinking. ”

You don't have to play a round for me, in this day and age, I am indeed illiterate.

Listening to Ji Lin's description, a person's image quickly appeared in front of Zhou Xinyi's eyes, but ...... "That's it?" ”

There's no inhuman anomaly or anything?

Ji Lin also understood what Zhou Xinyi wanted to know, "She has a talent for occultism that is different from ordinary people. ”

"You know, the principle of the occult is to form passages, to draw on or with the help of the power of nature and the gods."

"But as a human being, there is a limit to the channels that can be built, and even if you are talented, you will be limited to a framework."

"No one is born out of the framework of race unless she ......"

Unless she's not human.

Both of them tacitly remained silent.

After a moment of silence, Ji Lin said, "Mr. Zhou Xinyi, if your friend has not had an accident, please don't go any further. ”

"You're just a judge, and your time should be focused on the bigger picture of events, not on investigating these treacherous and dangerous cases."

"There are some things that you can't get out of if you want to, and if you go deeper, I'm afraid you won't be able to recover."

Zhou Xinyi never expected that as the heir, he was admonished by an aborigine.

"Ms. Shireen, there are some things you might as well say more bluntly."

"Why do you say that you can't get out as long as you intervene? With all due respect, Mr. Tsubaki had seen those monsters before, but now he had escaped those events and devoted himself to a new life. ”

"That's probably because he didn't get involved deeply," Ms. Ji Lin had only heard a little about Fang Q Chun, and was considering how to explain Zhou Xinyi, "Do you know that there is a concept in the occult called the law of causes. ”

"It means that something that happens to you, or something you know, will follow a certain pattern and pull you down a certain path."

The "law" in "law of cause" also refers to the meaning of the road.

Zhou Xinyi thought to himself, this is the concept of cause and effect in this era?

"Once you embark on the route laid for you by the law, even if you want to get out, all kinds of events related to it will take the initiative to find you and pull you back into the route."

That's why he "just happened" to see the woman who left the camping point without sleeping, and "just happened" to catch up with Changbai alone at that time, and "just happened" to see Jiang Yi disguised as a monster, and had to take risks alone?

It's all because he has fallen into the law of causes.

So where did he get the "cause"?

The most conclusive reason that Zhou Xinyi could think of was the cipher text that Shen Wei gave him.

The sense of crisis after watching the ciphertext still lingers.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xinyi "......hissed" again.

So did Shen Wei know about the existence of the "Cause Law", and if so, then what was his intention in persuading himself to peek at the ciphertext at that time?

This kid is very bad......

"Speaking of which, Ms. Shireen, I haven't repaid you for your rescue."

Zhou Xinyi said, "I think about it, I think there is nothing that can repay you, if you don't like a kunlang is too clichΓ©, just take this." ”

Zhou Xinyi sent a bat to Ji Lin.

Ji Lin looked at the little creature with novelty, "This is?" ”

"This is my contact information, if you need it in the future, or if you encounter danger, just say a word to it, it will fly to me thousands of miles away, and I will do my best to fulfill your request."

Although there is a distance limit for bats to actively communicate, it can fly back to its owner no matter how far away it is.

Although such retribution is also common, Zhou Xinyi knows that as a judge, he can exercise many conveniences in this era, and his promise must be worth more than Kunlang.

Also because of ...... There were only twelve bullets left in his tattoo, and they urgently needed to be replenished, and they could save a penny.

Ji Lin smiled, "Actually, you don't have to be so troublesome, you can just compensate Changbai to me." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ This one doesn't work. ”

Zhou Xinyi knew that Ji Lin was joking, "Can I ask why you are willing to sacrifice your life to save you?" ”

"Hmm...... Because you're someone Myler knew when he was alive. ”

Zhou Xinyi was a little surprised, "That's it?" ”

"I've always believed that when people die, they actually just change from living in this world to living in other people's memories."

"Although some people and Mailer are just acquaintances in the officialdom, but now that Jizhou City has experienced that catastrophe, there are not many people who have survived, and I don't want the person who carries the memory of my husband to pass away."

"And...... I don't mind helping a down-and-out judge, and lo and behold, isn't that the benefit? ”

She gestured to the bat sleeping in the palm of her hand.

It seems that the status of the judge has indeed brought him many gifts, and Zhou Xinyi said sincerely, "Thank you." ”

Although Ji Lin still had many doubts that Zhou Xinyi wanted to clarify, she was embarrassed to ask again when she said this.

Suddenly, Zhou Xinyi saw a ray of light in the darkness, which was the captain rushing with a lamp.

Something happened again...... It was a lively night.

He said a few words to Fang Wen Chun, the deputy captain not far away, and the two began to rush towards this side together.

Zhou Xinyi stood up suspiciously, this is to find him?

"Mr. Zhou! Someone is looking for you outside the campsite! ”

The first thing Zhou Xinyi thought in his heart was, brandy and Jiang Yi came to meet him?

But looking at the captain's anxious look, he didn't feel like it.

"There's a monster out there with a chainsaw in his hand who is looking for you by name! You, you don't offend anyone, do you? ”

Zhou Xinyi: "......"

It seems to be Ning Falcon.

In order not to scare the other team members, Zhou Xinyi followed the captain to the edge of the camping site quickly, and saw the Red Devil with a chainsaw in his hand, and Ning Falcon squatting by the stone.

Seeing that Zhou Xinyi was safe and sound, Ning Ying was overjoyed, "Mr. Zhou, are you okay?" ”

Zhou Xinyi sighed in his heart, what a kind and good boy, "It's hard for you to make this trip." ”

Ning Falcon put down what he was doing after receiving the bat's call for help, and chased after him as soon as possible, although it was still ridiculously late, Zhou Xinyi was still very grateful for his concern.

Ning Falcon was also very happy, "That's the old rule, when you receive a call for help, but the person concerned is out of danger, it's okay to only pay three ink stones for the journey, right?" ”

…… It turns out that this concern comes at a price.

"No, no problem."

"Since you have come to the camping site, let's rest here for one night first, it is dangerous to travel at night, and we will talk about it tomorrow if there is something to do."

Ning Falcon also patted the dust on his body, obviously after the battle, he didn't say anything polite to Zhou Xinyi, "Okay." ”

And just like that, the thrilling and hectic night finally passed.

Early the next morning, Zhou Xinyi found that many people were looking sad and crawling out of the tent tiredly.

Come to think of it, there were so many thrilling situations yesterday, and I was woken up by a gunshot from Zhou Xinyi as soon as I fell asleep, how could I sleep well?

Early in the morning, Ning Falcon also woke up with a messy red hair, "Good morning." ”

Zhou Xinyi was talking to the captain at this time about Changbai hunting a group of thorny warts last night, and the captain was naturally happy to pick up food materials for the thorny warts group.

He looked at Ning Falcon, "Good morning, Ning Falcon, where did you come from yesterday?" ”

"From the wasteland," said Ning Falcon, "I had just found a licorice ball, and before I could eat it, I was called over. ”

As he spoke, Ning Falcon's stomach screamed cooperatively.

"......" Zhou Xinyi was speechless for a while, are the inheritors of this light curtain so miserable?

Zhou Xinyi took a dry rice cake for him to cushion his stomach, "Today's lunch should be delicious." ”

After the team traveled for a while, the exploration team successfully picked up the ingredients for the warts, and Zhou Xinyi also took advantage of this to collect a wave of ink stones.

But this time, the same team of more than 40 thorny warts only picked up 6 ink stones.

It seems that hunting the same creature in a light curtain will reduce the reward like a cliff.

As Zhou Xinyi said, today's lunch is still prickly wart soup, and Zhou Xinyi also specially asked the captain to help him leave some of the ingredients, if he can meet Jiang Yi and brandy before he leaves the exploration team, maybe he can also take them to taste this special delicacy.

The captain didn't close his eyes in the middle of the night like Zhou Xinyi, but he still looked bright the next day, "Everyone, according to the route, we need to pass through a tunnel today!" ”

Speaking of the tunnel, the atmosphere became serious, "And it's not the remains of the tunnel that other exploration teams have been to, but the one farthest away from Jizhou City." ”

"The original purpose of our construction of that tunnel was to repair the railway, but due to the catastrophe facing Jizhou City, the construction of the railway was temporarily put on hold, and the tunnel will also become a lair of monsters."

"But even then, we still had to pass through there, and we sent a small number of people to the tunnels to understand the terrain so that we could map the rest of the map."

The captain was right to say this, and no one objected to the captain's instructions.

It seems that every member of the exploration team regards it as their responsibility to contribute to Jizhou City.

The advent of the catastrophe has indeed made many people grow up instantly, and the people of Jizhou City, who were originally short-sighted, have also united with the joint efforts of several years.

Although there are still many ironic questions, seeing the appearance of these people, Zhou Xinyi also understands why the exploration team is regarded as "hope".

At this time, Ji Lin raised her hand in the crowd.

"Captain, I remember that the railroad was almost finished, and it was only running on fuel."

"Have you ever thought about reclaiming that railway and making it a bridge connecting the diplomatic lifeblood of Jizhou City?"
