Chapter 51: Studying Talen Ancient
Ji Xun carried the two of them all the way for a while, and found a corner of the corridor where there were almost no monsters, and then stopped.
Letting go of the two, he patted his old friend again.
Chu Jiu opened his eyes, looked at the surrounding environment, and saw that there were no skeleton monsters at all, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: he was out of danger.
Sure enough, this guy finally came up with a way.
Ji Xun looked at the black blood soaked in his back clothes, and reminded casually: "Your injuries are very serious." ”
It wasn't his blood, it was the old friend who carried it.
Chu Jiu listened, but didn't want to talk about the cause of the injury, only said lightly: "Hmm." ”
She hadn't had time to deal with her injuries just now, but now that she had time to breathe, she turned her head to look at her back, then took out the potion and poured it on, bubbling with corrosive gas.
It seemed to hurt so much that her movements stiffened for a moment.
Ji Xun looked at her gloomy mood, where did he not guess that he could give her such a look behind her back, he must be a very trustworthy person.
The injuries that can keep her in this silver-haired state are bound to be not light.
But Ji Xun doesn't have any habit of peeping into people's privacy.
People are willing to speak, listen.
If you don't say it, it's over.
.......
The two have a basic understanding, and there is no need to say more.
At this time, the psychic master called Nanjing also woke up.
It was as if she had woken up from a nightmare.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the whole person immediately bounced up dexterously, and scanned the surroundings very vigilantly.
Seeing that his companion Chu Jiu was safe and sound, the card in Nan Jing's hand was put down.
The sackcloth cloak was lifted when he was running away on his shoulder, and Ji Xun realized that this was a black-haired girl with a ball head.
The gas mask blocked the face from seeing clearly, but he was not very old when he heard the voice, his eyes were bright, and his facial features were not bad.
The most eye-catching thing is that her figure is very material.
Even the loose adventurous tactical suit could not hide the majestic amplitude on her chest.
When Ji Xun was carrying her just now, it was obvious that her back felt like there were two air cushions, soft and glutinous.
This is a mature figure that does not match her cute ball head at all.
Ji Xun just had a special impression, but he didn't have anything else in mind.
Nanjing seemed to wake up from a dream, and asked Chu Jiu beside him with a blank face, "Sister Chu Jiu, we... Where is this? ”
She remembered that her spirit seemed to be under attack just now, and then she suddenly fell unconscious.
Wake up and come here.
Chu Jiu didn't respond to this kind of question that she didn't know, but just reminded: "Xiao Nan, it was this gentleman who saved us." ”
“???”
Hearing this, Nan Jing looked at him suspiciously, as if pondering the meaning of this sentence: Saved us?
This thought was as if the thoughts of the fragments had become clear again.
That's right.
I was running away just now!
What about the endless skeletons?
Nanjing looked around and found that there was not a single monster in sight around the corridor.
The doubt in her eyes instantly turned into unself-confidence, is she really out of danger?
Ji Xun looked at this psychic lady as if her nerves were a little sluggish, and her eyes were smiling.
The psychic lady didn't seem to have come back to her senses, her big eyes blinked and blinked, and the words "am I still in a coma and dreaming" were written on her face.
Chu Jiu was also accustomed to his companion's slow response and half-beat temperament, and reminded him a little helplessly: "Xiao Nan, you should say 'thank you'..."
Thinking that when I was in 407, I discovered this guy's incredible ability to break the game for the first time, so why not be in such a state of confusion.
But before he finished speaking, the injuries in his body surged, and Chu Jiu's expression changed instantly.
Although I wanted to endure it, the fishy spiciness, which hit my throat very suddenly, spit out a mouthful of blood with a "poof".
I was hit hard and fought all the way before, and my injuries were already very serious.
Chu Jiu hurriedly ran the mana suppression.
Nan Jing on the side also looked panicked, and hurriedly walked over to help deal with the injury.
......
Without the threat of the monster tide, the sense of crisis has temporarily receded.
Nan Mirror is brain just finished processing the information just now, and while preparing the medical tools, he said to Ji Xun gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. for saving me and Chu Jiu just now." You can call me Nanjing. ”
Now she has figured it out, if the person in front of her really has bad intentions just now, she doesn't have to do anything, they are all dangerous.
Nature is not an enemy.
As she spoke, she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, because of... So..."
She wanted to say something, but she seemed to feel betrayed by her peers, and she couldn't say that kind of family ugliness.
Momentarily speechless.
Ji Xun didn't pay attention to it at all, smiled politely, and introduced himself: "Ji Xun." ”
After this conversation, the three fell silent for a moment.
Nan Jing didn't have time to say more, and was engrossed in dealing with the wound on Chu Jiu's back. She used scissors to cut open the clothes on Hatsujiu's back, revealing a terrifying wound the size of a fist emitting black smoke.
And Ji Xun found out that his old friend's injury was more serious than what he saw.
Nanjing's method of treating the wound was obviously much more professional, and she did not pour the medicine roughly, but took out surgical tools to debride it.
With a cautious face, her husband cut off the sloping flesh from the wound that was emitting thick black smoke.
After cutting, the wound was carefully cleaned with a potion.
Then he took out a green card, and after activating it, the green six-pointed star on the card lit up with a green light representing life, lingering around the wound.
That's when she began to stitch it up carefully.
The whole healing process was cut and stitched, and it hurt to watch.
But Chu Jiu was always silent, and his eyes were dim.
Ji Xun watched the entire treatment process.
Chu Jiu's injuries were not only external injuries, but also a kind of fire-based dark energy erosion.
It's very cumbersome to deal with, and it's not enough to rely on potions alone.
The severed flesh was instantly burned to char without the suppression of the ice mana, and the strange dark fire energy corroded even the scalpel to pitch black.
This made Nanjing have to change several scalpels halfway.
Even Ji Xun was shocked when he looked at it.
This strange injury had to be replaced by an ordinary person, and I am afraid that he would have died on the spot a long time ago.
Obviously, the person who plotted against Chu Jiu was very aware of her ice mana and used restraint methods.
Familiar with her abilities, she can also sneak attack... It's a very trusted companion who does it.
Ji Xun thought of something.
But I didn't rush to talk.
He closed his eyes and meditated, waiting for them to heal their wounds.
......
After a short time, Nanjing stitched up the wound.
The power of the ice demon on Chu Jiu's body gradually faded.
The three of them didn't communicate much.
Ji Xun and Chu Jiu are used to the kind of way they can get along without talking for a long time.
But Nan Jing always felt that the atmosphere was a little too cold, and she couldn't help but be curious: "Mr. Ji Xun, just now... How did you keep those skeletons from chasing us? ”
Ji Xunben didn't want to explain much, but thinking that he might encounter trouble again in the future, he also said: "The hatred trigger method of the skeleton monster is the fluctuation of sanity value. It's good not to be afraid, not to be excited, and to suppress fluctuations as much as possible. ”
"Huh? That's it? ”
Nanjing had been to this labyrinth before, how could he not know this.
But how can a normal person be completely free from any mood swings?
“...”
Ji Xun didn't want to explain more, and naturally he didn't mention the clown mask.
He can trust the ninth day of the first month, but that doesn't mean he can trust others.
Chu Jiu saw that Ji Xun didn't want to say more, so he interrupted his companion's curiosity at the right time and asked, "Mr. Ji Xun, what are we going to do now?" ”
Ji Xun said: "Wait." ”
Chu Jiu seemed to be accustomed to this kind of out-of-the-box thinking, thought for a moment, immediately understood, and nodded: "Hmm." ”
Nan Jing listened to Chu Jiu's interjection, as if he had suddenly forgotten what he was going to ask just now.
As soon as he heard the two of them talk about the next arrangement, he pricked up his ears.
Originally, I thought that this mysterious "Mr. Ji Xun" would have some detailed arrangements.
But listen, the conversation between the two just started and ended?
This psychic lady instantly felt that her brain was not enough, she turned her head to look at Chu Jiu, and then looked at Ji Xun, her crystal eyes were as big as copper bells, and her face was full of big question marks.
That's it?
What are you waiting for?
Hey, hey, hey...
You can make it clear.
These two guys are like playing dumb riddles, so they don't talk about it?
Nan Jing's mind was still running the question just now, and he didn't realize that he had been staring at it for a long time.
Ji Xun was cast by this psychic lady, and his eyes were a little crying and laughing.
The companion of Chu Jiu seems to be a little stupid and cute.
But it's not surprising to think about it.
Because I have cooperated with Chu Jiu, I have more or less tacit understanding.
It's normal for others to not be able to keep up with that kind of brain circuit.
Just met Nanjing's deputy doctor, and it was not completely a drag oil bottle, so Ji Xun said one more thing: "Wait until the Cao family's people are dead before acting." Otherwise, they will run around in the maze, which will bring a lot of unexpected risks. ”
Hearing this, Nan Jing's face was suddenly shocked, and he muttered to himself: "I see." ”
The three fell silent for a moment.
At this time, thinking of something, Ji Xun also asked, "By the way, Miss Nanjing, why are you in the labyrinth?" The train outside was blown up? ”
He didn't know if this question had anything to do with the ambush, but he couldn't figure it out, and he always felt that something was missing.
Ji Xun knew that when she asked Chu Jiu, she would answer.
But it may touch on topics she doesn't want to mention, such as who was backstabbed in the back.
And asking this companion of hers will obviously get more information.
Ji Xunzhen was very curious about why they were involved in the murder of the Governor Cao's family.
Hearing the inquiry, Nan Jing glanced at Chu Jiu and saw that he didn't speak, that is, he could say it by default.
She responded directly: "No. It was another group of looters who blew up the train. We just heard that there was a shipment of medical supplies on this train. It just so happened that we needed those things, so we came over and had a look. I didn't want to be involved. ”
"Oh."
Ji Xun listened to it suddenly.
It turns out that they are the only ones except the Golden Oak, the Doge's Palace, and the Marauders... Fourth Force.
The need for a large number of medical supplies means that there is a big force behind them.
But it was so coincidental that he was caught up and plotted by his companions?
This made Ji Xun inevitably suspect that the person who wanted to kill Chu Jiu was her own person from the forces behind her, and it was directly related to the mastermind behind the murder of Governor Cao.
So much so that he was trapped in the maze and was not at ease, and he had to arrange for the dead to do it.
Ji Xunxin said: "In this way, the identity of the ninth year is becoming more and more special..."
His mind was racing, and the outline of the whole conspiracy was gradually becoming clear.
Now think about it.
Various rumors in the city before, such as what treasure the Cao family has in their hands, assassination reward... and so on, it looks like someone deliberately spread it.
It was all to force the governor Cao Sihai to feel that his life was in danger in the city of innocence.
Then there were plans to sneak out of town on a modified freight train.
And it just so happened that the marauders got the news that there were supplies on the train and blew up the tracks.
And then there is the fourth party force of Chu Jiu, who also knows that there are medical supplies in the car, come to see the situation, and dispose of them together.
Killing many birds with one stone.
Borrowing a knife to kill people to the extreme.
There is no need for people behind the scenes to appear in person throughout the whole process, and it doesn't even cost a single soldier.
Relying on just a few erroneous pieces of news to involve several forces can be said to be a brilliant trick.
Ji Xun was also interested.
The aftermath of the incident alone will inevitably cause many deaths in the city of innocence.
And he always felt that the assassination of the governor Cao Sihai seemed to be the beginning of this storm.
But this has nothing to do with Ji Xun.
He likes to be lively.
But I prefer to hide in the dark and watch the excitement of others.
......
To have a master like Chu Jiu, it is not easy to think about the background of the "fourth force".
Ji Xun didn't try to spy on the identities of Chu Jiu.
It's rude, and there's no need to do it.
As long as it's not an enemy, it doesn't matter what it is.
At this time, Chu Jiu was also afraid that his stupid companion would say something that shouldn't be said, so he took the initiative to ask: "Mr. Ji Xun, you just said that you met the [Secret Keeper] before?" ”
Ji Xun nodded: "Hmm." ”
Saying this, Chu Jiu and Nan Jing both cast curious glances, "What level of calamity is that?" Can it be solved? ”
Speaking of monsters, Ji Xun thought of the previous glimpse, and the feeling in his heart that made his soul tremble was still clear.
"It's tricky."
He frowned slightly, and said, "S-class calamity, immortal and immortal, there are quite a few of them. Don't think about hard bumps unless you have to. ”
“...”
Hearing this, Chu Jiu's expression immediately became serious.
She was well aware of the "tricky" weight.
At the beginning of Space 407, those terrifying A-class calamities didn't make Ji Xun say a tricky adjective.
But now, he's speaking out.
In other words, this calamity is absolutely invincible.
Chu Jiu looked over again: "So? ”
Ji Xun understood what she was asking, and replied, "Solve the puzzle." ”
"Hmm."
Chu Jiujing's eyes rolled, and he also understood what he said.
The conversation between the two ended in a few words.
Nanjing, who was listening with his ears pricked up, froze his expression again: Again... Gone again?
Obviously, the brain circuit of this psychic lady is not as fast as that of Chu Jiu, and there is no such tacit understanding.
As soon as she heard [Keeper of Secrets], she felt that she had grasped the key point.
Well!
This time, I must listen carefully to the information.
Analytical analysis.
Think about how to crack the maze based on clues.
However, I never thought about it, I didn't listen to two sentences, and it was gone!
The expression under the gas mask of the Southern Mirror is extremely rich at the moment.
She glanced at Chu Jiu, and then at the guy with the same zombie expression as herself, and muttered in her heart: Can't you say a few more words?
The point is...
I didn't get it!
Nanjing felt that he would look stupid when he opened his mouth to ask.
She could only ask the others faintly: "Sister Junior Nine, how did you meet?" ”
She and Chu Jiu are the closest partners, but they have never met Ji Xun or heard her talk about it, which is very strange.
It seems to have come out of nowhere.
"This..."
Chu Jiu listened to what he wanted to explain.
But when the words came to his lips, he stopped again.
407 is very sensitive, even if it's a best friend's, you can't say it.
After all, this matter is not only about herself, but also about the life and death of others.
And Ji Xun was even more interested in talking about this topic, and he didn't plan to deal with it.
But if the two of them don't speak, the atmosphere is very delicate.
Chu Jiu looked at Nanjing's increasingly strange eyes, and finally couldn't help but say: "Mr. Ji Xun is a trustworthy friend. He saved my life. ”
"Oh?"
Nanjing listened, and sure enough, it stopped a lot.
But I couldn't help but be curious.
If you're not mistaken, this person in front of you is probably an apprentice of a spell master?
What is his ability to save Chu Jiu?
Ji Xun originally didn't want to talk, but when he heard Chu Jiu's words, he also shook his head slightly: "Miss Chu Jiu is too polite. ”
He chose to save people just now, not only because of the role of the "humanoid radar" in the ninth year.
What's more important is that within the scope of his ability, he will return her favor.
Ji Xunneng shot other people's heads without any fluctuation in his heart, and he was not a good person.
But it's not unkind.
Once the human favor is contaminated, it doesn't mean that the account will be settled if it is repaid.
It's like borrowing money, even if you pay it back, the favor is still there.
Not to mention that in the 407 space, you can't live without the first nine seasons.
Even after he came out, without the response of the ninth day of the first month, he would not have survived until now.
This life-saving kindness is not small.
But after he spoke, Ji Xun didn't say more.
He didn't want to be pretentious about this kind of thing, and instead got down to business: "By the way, Miss Chujiu, is the information found in the safe still with you?" ”
"Yes."
Chu Jiu understood very well that when the other party asked, he must need this thing.
After speaking, she directly took out a stack of materials.
Ji Xun was not polite, took the information, lit the lamp, and sat down directly to read it.
While he was fine, he also saw if he could translate some.
After all, judging from the information obtained from the previous adventurer's diary, it seems that if you want to leave this labyrinth, you must crack a secret room with Talon ancient script.
It can also be beneficial to familiarize yourself with it earlier.
Seeing him flip through those classics like this, Chu Jiu didn't ask him much what he was going to do.
In the previous 407 cooperation, Ji Xun made some preparations that were incomprehensible at first more than once.
But as a result, each time is a key means of breaking the game.
But although she didn't ask much, she was really curious in her heart, what is the use of these materials?
Also, this is the ancient Talen script, and there are not necessarily a few polymaths in Dragon City who are proficient in it, and he can understand it?
And Nan Jing, who has a straightforward temperament, didn't think about it so much, she glanced at the dense ancient characters on the file, and asked directly: "Mr. Ji Xun, are you a card disciple of the 'Wisdom Sequence'?" ”
"It's not."
Ji Xun didn't look up, and responded casually.
He continued to look through the materials, trying to recall as much as he could the content that had been inspired and translated in Space 407.
Hearing this, Nan Jing was surprised: "Ah... So can you read these ancient texts? ”
Ji Xun shook his head decisively: "I don't understand." ”
“???”
Hearing this, Nan Jing's eyes were obviously stunned for three seconds.
Even Chu Jiu cast a very surprised gaze.
Although she has no doubt about Ji Xun's ability to decrypt, this... What does it mean to be completely unable to read the information and still hold the information to read?
Nan Jing couldn't help but be curious, and asked directly: "Then who are you?" ”
Ji Xun didn't hide it, and said calmly: "Learn now." ”
Nanjing: "..."
The ninth day of the first month: "..."
Hearing this, the corners of the two women's eyes twitched inexplicably.
I thought he knew Talun.
At least understand a little.
But this temporary study, no matter how you look at it, you don't think it's reliable, okay?
Chu Jiu was surprised for a moment, and he also understood something.
Should you want to recall the content of the original enlightenment prompt and combine it with the translation of ancient texts?
This... It doesn't seem like it's possible, right?
But Chu Jiu has an inexplicable feeling that it is impossible for others, and this guy may be able to do it.
She waved away those scattered thoughts, since she didn't have the idea to break the game, this kind of thing was left to those who had the ability to do it.
Chu Jiu closed his eyes and fell into meditation.
And the psychic lady looked deeply suspicious.
But Ji Xun didn't pay attention to what she meant, and carefully studied the information by himself, and he had the ability to never forget, and he quickly immersed himself in it.
The two girls on the ninth day of the year did not bother again.
In this moment, the three of them stayed in the maze for three whole days.
