Chapter 12: Speculation

In 1986, not long after Bai Makui established the Fengwang Society, because he was eager to show the Fengwang Society in front of UG, he took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Lop Nur to conduct an investigation. Six years ago, in 1980, an expedition to Lop Nur discovered a relic somewhere in Lop Nur and brought out a mysterious object known as the 'Pisces Jade Pendant'. The object has a strange ability to replicate across time. Later, UG investigated that if that ruin was combined with the ability of the 'Pisces Jade Pendant', it might be able to reach another parallel world. Bai Makui's action that time was to go to that world to have a look. ”

"The Snake Realm. Hakuba muttered.

Principal Long nodded, "That operation, there were eight people in total, seven members of the Phoenix King Society and one Fest Sterling sent by UG. That one Fistreling was called Jia Yun. Of course, that's a fake name. ”

Jia Yun ...... Fake cloud, hypothesis, doesn't it mean that this is a name of nonsense......"

"Looking at it now, it's a bit of an afterthought. However, in that operation, in addition to a life waiting outside the ruins, there was also Jia Yun. The rest of them all disappeared into that world. ”

This was successfully connected to the clues that Hakuma Xiao had mastered, "The person who didn't go in was Masao Kimura." "That is, the Japanese owner who opened a hotel in Xiaoling Mountain," then that Jia Yun ...... It is the Oriental Snow Ji. ”

Principal Long looked at him, his eyes full of surprise, "You can know the name Dongfang Xueji, which means that you have indeed put in a lot of effort." You know, the only people who know this name are the people closest to her. The name doesn't exist in any ancient books, and she herself has been gone for hundreds of years, even I know it. ”

"You also know?!" Hakuba said incredulously, as if he had inadvertently revealed some secret.

In retrospect, this name was given by Nuwa and Fuxi, and after such a long time, who would know this name, and there are only people close to her. But judging from the performance of the soul couple at that time, even Bai Mafei didn't know this name, only her Japanese name - Black Feather Liangyue.

After leaving Japan, she should have either gone into hiding or changed her name, otherwise she would not have been known for hundreds of years.

Principal Long nodded, "But it's useless to know the name, it's just a code name." According to that Kimura Masao, there were only Jia Yun who came back from the ruins at that time, and it was two Jia Yun. ”

"And then, did you say why there were two Jia Yun?" Bai Maxiao asked impatiently, he was most concerned about this question.

Principal Long shook his head and said, "It's a pity that none of the people who know have come back. However, Kimura said he heard one of them, Jia Yun, say, say, 'they're all dead,' and the rest, gone. ”

"Two Jia Yun...... Could it be that Pisces Jade Pendant's copying ability?"

Principal Long said, "Pisces Jade Pendant does have such an ability, and no one can explain it so far. However, this is not a simple copy, there is a causal relationship between the two objects that are copied at random intervals, the ontology is the 'effect', the replica is the 'cause', and if the 'cause' is affected, then the 'effect' will also change. ”

"Cause and effect...... Hakumashi thought of something, "I've seen this kind of movie before, and if the replica kills the body, it can replace the body." It seems that many movies have similar settings. ”

Principal Long nodded, "It's true that there can't be two identical people in the world, so one of them must be killed. ”

Hakuma said thoughtfully, "The ontology is the 'effect', the replica is the 'cause', and if the replica dies, then the ontology will also die." But on the other hand...... the death of the 'effect' does not affect the 'cause'!"

Principal Long heard what he meant, "You said that once the Pisces Jade Pendant replicates an identical human, the body must die no matter what, which seems to mean that only the replica can live." ”

Bai Ma Xiao said excitedly, "That's right, so the Dongfang Xue Ji who came to kill us that day was the copy! She wanted to kill Xiao Ling at that time! I understand, in that world, Pisces Jade Pei copied another Xue Ji, this copy killed everyone, and the soul of Bai Bird Ling was used Xuan Jue Technique into Xue Ji's body, but she failed to kill her, she ran out, so the copy naturally chased out, until now she is still thinking about killing Xiao Ling. It all makes sense!"

His inference is very reasonable, explaining almost all the doubts so far, Xiaoling's amnesia, the whereabouts of Fengwangshe, and the two Xueji, all seem to make sense.

Looking at Erbai, who was full of joy, Principal Long also smiled and nodded, "In that case, do you still want to enter that world?"

The excitement of the two turned into deep thought, but Bai Maxiao didn't think long before saying, "I'm going to find my uncle, and I believe he's not dead." ”

Principal Long smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, I care about my biological father and haven't forgotten my roots." But you also know that UG will not agree to involve a student like you. ”

It's one thing to think, it's another thing to do. On his own, he still couldn't enter the snake realm, and although he had the key, he couldn't find the door.

"That'...... Principal Long came to me today, what ......" Bai Maxiao vaguely felt that Principal Long had a way to get him involved, otherwise he would not have come here today.

"To help you, but also to help UG. Looking at his puzzled eyes, Principal Long continued, "I know that you got a Pisces jade pendant in Dongzhou, which means that you have the key in your hand. ”

"Pisces Jade Pendant?" Bai Ma Xiao immediately took out the stone slab from his pocket, "You mean, that Pisces Jade Pendant with the ability to copy is this slate?!"

Principal Long's expression didn't change much, but Shiratori Ling snatched the slate very sensitively, and pretended to be calm and said, "That's right, this slate seems to be a very important thing, Brother Xiao's biological father once deceived Tranquility's mother for it." ”

Her words seemed to be said to Bai Maxiao, which seemed to mean that such an important thing could not be shown casually, otherwise it would be easily taken away by people with ulterior motives.

Bai Ma Xiao understood the meaning and said tacitly, "Yes, we will definitely take good care of such an important thing." Since Principal Long, you know that we have the key in our hands, what should we do?"

Principal Long still smiled kindly, ignoring the small movements of the two, and continued, "Now that all the Traines sent out are missing, UG is already in a hurry. As far as I know, all the keys in their hands were brought into the Serpent Realm by the Tralings they sent out, and even if they wanted to send a second team to rescue them, there was no way for them to do so. So, you can go and do this deal with them. ”

"You mean, use this key in my hand to negotiate terms with UG, and get them to agree to take me into the snake realm, which will be beneficial to both of us." ”

Principal Long didn't answer directly, but said meaningfully, "In the spirit world, just like in the living world, you must either be famous, or have strength, or - you must have what others want, so that you can have the opportunity to speak." ”

What he said was very realistic and cruel, and Bai Maxiao was thoughtful, "Thank you Principal Long for teaching, I have been taught." ”

Principal Long looked at him, put his hand on the top of his head, and brushed it lovingly, "You really look like your father. ”

He knew that Principal Long was talking about his biological father, after all, this was not the first time he had heard this.

Suddenly, Principal Long said, "Do you think Teacher Fu can be trusted?"

Bai Maxiao was stunned, thought for a long time, and didn't know how to answer, "I don't know ......"

Principal Long raised his head, looked at the seagulls dotted in the sky, and said in a tone that was difficult to hear emotion, "Brother Fu...... There's a lot to hide from us. ”

There seems to be a deep meaning to these words. Bai Maxiao's heart also began to mumble.

Fu Jiansheng seemed to meet him at an inexplicable time every time, but he seemed to be guiding him every time he appeared, and when Principal Long said this, he also began to have doubts.

Just as he was in doubt, Bai Maxiao suddenly remembered something that he should have asked Principal Long a long time ago. He took off the long package on his back, "By the way, Principal Long, that time in the underground palace of Xiaoling Mountain, in addition to the giant sword that Teacher Fu brought out, I also brought out this sword, do you know what this is?"

Ever since that time at Valhalla against the Seven Samurai of the Spirit Sword, Headmaster Long had noticed that what was on his back was a racket bag at first, and then it turned into a canvas bag that looked like a tripod, but it was the first time he had heard that it was a sword.

Bai Ma Xiao was about to take out the sword to show him, but was stopped, "If it is from the same source as the Fuxi sword, then it must be an artifact, and blood must be seen when it comes out of the sheath, and it cannot be displayed at will." ”

This sounds emotional, but in fact, it is just a respect for this artifact, and it can't be pulled out until it is needed.

"That'...... Do you know where this sword came from?"

"I don't know. If this sword can be used by you, it is destined for you, keep it well, and when the opportunity comes, you will naturally know what this artifact is. ”

This Principal Long spoke not only in a crepe, but also quite Zen, which can be described in four words as "unclear and powerful".

Before leaving, Principal Long said to him, "That key is important. Don't trust anyone. ”

Going out, Hakuma Xiao thought about that sentence repeatedly.

Don't trust anyone.

Principal Long and Fu Jiansheng both said such things. Although this is a piece of advice, Hakuma Shi always finds it weird.

Walking on the stairs, Shiratori Ling returned the stone slab to him, but he refused, "You were right just now, this thing is very important, it's not safe to put on me, so you should keep it." ”

Shiratori Ling thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It's okay, so that you won't leave me again." ”

Bai Maxiao smiled bitterly, "Your word 'again' is the point, right?"

Bai Bird Ling ignored him, but muttered to himself, "The general trend of the world, it will be divided for a long time, and it will be together for a long time." ”

This sentence is obviously not suitable for couples, but it is in line with the state of the two of them in the past few months, and it carries a lot of resentment.

Looking at her back, Bai Ma Xiao muttered to himself, "Xiaoling, no matter what, I won't leave you again." ”

Out of the door, the plane was still on the runway in the distance, and they paced slowly there, enjoying the sea breeze.

After getting on the special plane, they found that Fu Jiansheng was waiting for them in the seat early.

"Teacher Fu, why are you ......?"

Fu Jiansheng said naturally, "In two days, it will be Xiaojing's wedding, and it just so happens that my matter here has been resolved, so I will go to Xingang with you." ”

Bai Maxiao looked him up and down, this Fu Jiansheng was obviously dressed up, his face was much cleaner, and he had changed into a new set of clothes, looking like he was going to a wedding.

"Where's Yuri?"

"Principal Long arranged a dormitory for her, and she lived there temporarily. ”

It seems that Yuri does not attend the wedding. It's normal, after all, she and Tranquility aren't acquainted.

It was only ten minutes away from the floating sea to fly back to Xingang, during which Fu Jiansheng asked them about the conversation with Principal Long, Bai Maxiao deliberately avoided the stone slab, he decided to follow the advice of Fu Jiansheng and Principal Long, and not trust anyone.

It wasn't until they arrived at Xingang that Fu Jiansheng suddenly said, "By the way, that slate, why don't I keep it for you." ”
