Chapter 9: The Crystal Heart
Han Wu dragged Mo Xuan to the small hill on the outskirts of the city of Xuanye.
"Why are you dragging me when you run away by yourself?" Mo Xuan shook off Han Wu's hand and said.
"I want you to be a witness for me." Han Wu said.
"What do you mean?" Mo Xuan asked.
"When someone comes to me, you can help me prove that I have killed the Night Boss." Han Wu said.
"It's strange, I didn't see you kill him, and you don't have anything to prove it. How can I prove it to you? Besides, you're still delaying me from picking up the goods, why should I prove it to you! Mo Xuan said.
"It's my fault for delaying you to pick up your goods, I apologize. But I confessed it in public, what more do I need? Han Wu said.
"For example, if I come to see me, otherwise, if I am an employer anyway, I will not believe it." Mo Xuan said.
"Oh, you woman, why are you so ruthless. Is it so hard to leave a whole corpse for someone? There is no love at all. Han Wu said tauntingly.
"You killer, you're here to talk to me about love? I don't have time to talk to you. Mo Xuan said and was about to leave.
"Can't go!" Han Wu grabbed Mo Xuan and knocked her unconscious and tied her up. Then he turned on the call system on the bracelet and sent a signal to He Yan......
On the opposite side of the cryolite mountain of the Cold Crystal planet stood an old man. He had a white beard, was skinny, his whole body radiated with white light, two tentacles on the top of his head, and his eyes were staring at the cryolite mountain in a daze. He is the Minister of Energy of the Planet Frost.
"Minister, are you worried about energy again?" His secretary asked.
"Ice, there are fewer and fewer energy crystals on all planets these days. Every day I think about how I can activate the energy of this cryolite mountain as a replenishment energy for the planet. A few days ago, I finally found out that the beating of the 'Crystal Heart' can release powerful electricity, so that the energy in this cryolite mountain can be extracted without consuming other energy sources. The Minister of Energy said.
"And how do you find the Crystal Heart?" Ice asked.
"I don't know, it's just a few words on the information, maybe it's just a legend. But it's better than no hope. The Minister of Energy said helplessly.
Ice thought for a moment and said, "When I was a child, I heard my mother tell a story: an ancestor of the Cold Crystal Planet, she fell in love with a young man from the Phantom Planet. Then her heart of ice began to melt, and when it was completely melted, it became the 'Crystal Heart'. Later, the young man broke the ancestor's heart, and her heart froze again. But this process depleted all the energy in that ancestor's body. Eventually, she turned into a particle.
But she still had to protect her lover, so she incorporated her mental power and her love for the lad into the particles. The particles have turned into a group of warriors, who are the ancestors of our Phantom Guardians. Their appearance is the same as that of the people of the Phantom Planet, so everyone thinks that they are a hybrid blood of the Cold Crystal Planet and the Phantom Planet. But in fact, they are pure-blooded descendants of the planet Frost Crystal. ”
"Ice, why can't I find any information about this story?" The Minister of Energy asked in surprise.
"It may be that the data was later destroyed, because I am afraid that these team members will not be willing to protect the Phantom Planet after knowing their background. So no one ever talked about the legend again. And since then, there has been an unwritten rule on the Cold Crystal Planet, that is, the members of the Phantom Land Guardians must secretly protect the Phantom Planet. However, try not to interact with the humans of Phantom Planet unless necessary. Ice explained.
"And how did your mom know about it?" The Minister of Energy asked again.
"Because my maternal ancestors were good friends with that ancestor. So this legend has been circulating only within our family. Ice replied.
"Ice, thank you for telling me this." said the Minister of Energy.
"Because you are my respected elder, I can't bear to see you troubled, and I ask you to keep this secret." Ice said.
"I will, good girl. Let's go back. The Minister of Energy said.
Ice helped the Minister of Energy back to the space station at the Frost Crystal Planet headquarters.
Heyan was talking about business on the trading planet, and he received a signal from Hanwu. So, after he finished talking about business, he took a spaceship to the Phantom Planet. He found Hanwu through the location of Hanwu's bracelet.
"Captain Hanwu really made an extraordinary move, and he did it so quickly." He Yan said.
"Did you bring the energy magnet?" Hanwu asked.
"What's the hurry, you have to let me see the corpse and inspect the goods." He Yan said.
"There are no bodies, but I have witnesses." Hanwu helped Mo Xuan to sit up as she had passed out, and took off the black hood over her head.
"What do you mean by that? When I saw him just now, I thought it was a corpse. Want to play tricks on me? I don't think you want an energy magnet, do you? He Yan saw Mo Xuan and asked.
Han Wu raised his hand and released energy at Mo Xuan's head, waking her up.
Mo Xuan opened her eyes, and she saw Han Wu, and she was about to get angry. At this time, He Yan walked up to her and asked, "Was this guy who killed the Night Boss?" ”
Mo Xuan nodded, then immediately shook his head.
He Yan felt very funny when he saw her reaction, and he said to Han Wu: "It seems that people are not willing to testify against you." Then I can only do it when you fail this mission. It just so happened that I forgot to bring the energy magnet, return the energy bracelet to me, and you can go. ”
"You can't cross the river and tear down the bridge. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to the Xuanye Dungeon and see the reaction of the Night Boss's men. Han Wu said.
"Then wait for tomorrow morning, this long night is still accompanied by a beautiful woman. Thank you for this surprise. He Yan picked up Mo Xuan, who was sitting on the ground, and said to Han Wu.
"What are you going to do? You must not hurt her! Han Wu said nervously.
"If you want to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, people may not receive your affection. You see, I held her like this, did she resist? Don't be nosy! He Yan said, hugged Mo Xuan, turned into a flash of light and returned to his spaceship......
That night, Leng Xin was lying on the bed, she closed her eyes, and all that appeared in her mind was Xia Nuanyang's smile, and she couldn't sleep.
Leng Xin sat up and wanted to call Xia Nuanyang. Only then did she remember that her phone had been buried at the bottom of the river that night.
She thought to herself: No wonder Xia Nuanyang said that the phone call to me couldn't be connected. If he doesn't come to me again, I'm afraid I'll lose touch with him again. There is also Captain Hanwu, who said that he was going on a secret mission that day, and he didn't know when he would come back.
Leng Xin can't sleep, and he is bored. So she went to the living room, opened the lid of the old piano, and carefully stroked the keys. She was afraid of making a noise and disturbing the neighbors.
Leng Xin counted the keys while muttering to himself: "Go back to space, stay in the phantom land, go back to space, stay in the phantom land...... The odd number goes back to space, and the even number stays in the fantasy land...... It's great, it's an even number. ”
