Chapter 162
The red paper was gently pulled open, revealing a small hole hidden behind it. The knight leaned over and looked into the hole. It was dark inside, but nothing seemed to be hidden.
"No?" another knight said, holding his hand on the tree trunk.
"Let's light it up."
"Come again."
"Everything is open."
"Fine."
When I turned on the smart flashlight function on my wrist, a beam of light came out and was aimed at the hole in the tree trunk. As expected, there was nothing in the hole.
"I'll just say it's impossible."
"Wait a minute, is this hole too deep?" The knight looked at the ground, then at the tree hole, and tried his best to peer inside, "I still feel something weird, why not dig up the ground and take a look..."
Everyone in the palace is full of talents, and those who are lucky enough to become knights are naturally outstanding.
In order to fulfill His Majesty the King's orders, the knights performed their duties diligently and rushed to the front. They would never ignore anything just because they felt it was troublesome. If they thought the hole was suspicious, they would dig the hole to find out.
At first, they just used hoes. Later, they found that the hoes were not enough, so they used earth drills. Finally, they found that the earth drills were still not enough, so they used excavators...
The ground shook uneasily. Hidden deep in the basement, dust fell, and the parts on the table were beating, almost falling off the table...
In the virtual world.
The calico cat opened its eyes uneasily in Song Juyao's arms, sat up vigilantly, lowered his head and saw Song Juyao frowning slightly in her sleep, and subconsciously licked her eyebrows, trying to smooth out the wrinkles.
Full of soothing flavor.
As a result, Song Juyao was licked awake.
"...Morning." Song Juyao touched its head, reached for the small alarm clock on the bedside table and looked at it. It was already past seven in the morning, and it was time to get up.
Song Juyao got up to wash up. The cat followed behind her and kept meowing. Song Juyao couldn't help but wonder if it was in heat and considered whether to take it for sterilization.
With this thought in mind, after washing, she picked up the cat, stuffed it into the cat bag, and carried it to the bus stop, preparing to take the bus to the pet hospital.
The bus didn't come for a long time, and the cat meowed more and more loudly, and started to scratch wildly. This state affected Song Juyao, who also had an inexplicable heartbeat disorder and a sense of uneasiness. Song Juyao was right.
I was about to call a taxi, but a black car drove over.
"Ju Yao." The car window slid down, revealing Xiang Yanning's face. She glanced at her cat, "Do you want to go to the pet hospital? Come up, I'll give you a ride."
"No."
"Come up here and let me discuss something with you."
Song Juyao stared at Xiang Yanning for a while, and the cat meowed even louder, so she had no choice but to open the door and sit in.
【Ah ah ah ah ah ah don’t go in!!!】
【Danger Danger Danger Danger!!!】
【??What's wrong?】
[The two judges are so boring. They might as well lick my pretty face without even looking at what they did. What’s going on? 】
【Don’t be scary!】
There were too few viewers to see what the two judges and subjects were doing. They were neither celebrities nor beautiful, and they were doing boring and old-fashioned things. Most of the audience gathered here with Song Juyao.
, so in a large wave of comments, I didn’t even see an answer.
At the same time, inside the palace.
The king felt something and frowned.
He stood up and said, "Prepare the car."
Internal Affairs Officer: "Yes." I must go to the queen again.
…
Xiang Yanning was wearing sunglasses and talking to Song Juyao while driving.
"Are you really not considering entering the entertainment industry?"
"Not interested in."
"That's a pity... You went to the palace to work before, did you meet the king?"
"Not every maid can meet His Majesty the King."
"Yes." Xiang Yanning's facial muscles seemed to relax a little, "Why do you have such an ugly cat? The nose is gone."
"It has nothing to do with you. The pet hospital is not in this direction. You are going in the wrong direction."
"Really? It's okay, I'll turn around later. Ju Yao, where's your necklace? Why aren't you wearing it?"
"I don't want to wear it."
"Then you sell it to me. I quite like it. You can agree on a price." Xiang Yanning's voice was high-pitched, a little excited.
"No." Song Juyao lowered his eyes and said.
She knew what this woman was planning. Calculating the time, this issue was almost over, and the number of votes should be almost there. It would be good to end it as soon as possible. She felt uncomfortable in this issue and couldn't wait to return to the real world.
Even if the real world is not much better, it is at least better than this false reality - she cannot find Jiang Baiqi, the one who looks most like Jiang Baiqi, has an identity that she cannot accept.
The car drove forward smoothly and gradually entered a road with few vehicles. Xiang Yanning received a call.
"No?"
"Everything has been rummaged through," said the man over there. He was standing in Song Juyao's rental house. The house had become a mess. All the cabinets had been opened, and it seemed that even the corners had not been spared. "
It's either on her body or she's hiding it."
"Are you sure you didn't tell her about the necklace?"
"Am I stupid to tell her?"
"Okay, come and join me."
The call is over.
The car drove into a warehouse. After the car entered, the rolling shutter door automatically slid down and closed.
Song Juyao seemed to have finally realized something was wrong, and looked at Xiang Yanning, "What are you doing?"
Xiang Yanning took off his sunglasses and smiled: "I don't want to do anything, I just want your necklace."
"Why? Does this necklace hide any important secrets?" Song Juyao looked calm, not at all panicked about being kidnapped.
"You don't have to worry about it. Just hand over the necklace and I'll let you go."
Song Juyao smiled and said, "I think you are more likely to kill me and silence me."
The fake smile disappeared, and Xiang Yanning's eyes turned sinister, "Yes, but I can let you choose a way to die. An easy death is better than a painful death, right?"
"I guess your companion should be Mr.
Song Juyao thought to herself that Mr.
He was also a reborn person, and after knowing about the Blood of Contract, the two of them worked together and reached a mutually beneficial partnership.
They are so greedy. They have already used the prophet of the future to earn fame and fortune, but they still want to be the person destined by the king, trying to use the blood of the contract to pretend to be the replacement. They are going to tell a big lie. If this is the case, then Song Juyao will only
They must kill the real Phoenix, otherwise her existence will be a fatal threat to them.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that the blood of the contract was gone and she had already met the king.
【??I finally understand!】
[Go on, you are so damn brave, you actually tried to deceive the king?]
[So it is said that people should read more to know common sense, understand things, and not do stupid things. They definitely don’t know that His Majesty the King and the destined person have telepathy. They want to be the king’s destined person with just a certificate. It’s so beautiful.
】
[Song Juyao is so calm, she doesn’t panic at all!]
[Why panic? Don’t forget that Yao Yao is so awesome. Not to mention brainpower, self-defense and swordsmanship are all her skills. 】
Song Juyao showed no signs of panic, pushed open the car door, and walked out. She opened the cat bag, and the cat jumped out, clinging tightly to Song Juyao's ankles, and its fur began to grow vigilantly.
"Are you sick? Are you still thinking about a beast at this time?" Xiang Yanning also got out of the car and frowned when he saw that Song Juyao still had time to touch the cat.
The entire warehouse was sealed, and Song Juyao couldn't get out even after getting off the car. She was not afraid of Song Juyao's resistance. She was taller and stronger than Song Juyao, and her companions were about to arrive.
Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will come.
The back door of the warehouse opened, and a fair and elegant man walked in with a smile.
"I finally meet you, Miss Song. I have been fascinated by you for a long time."
Song Juyao: "Mr. x."
"But you made me very sad. You turned a blind eye to my advances. I originally thought we could be friends."
【Bah, are you worthy?】
[This is a Phoenix man who kills his wife!]
[These two are really hopeless. If you give them a chance to do it again, they will go back to the same old path. This is really their nature. Unless they go back to their mother's womb and reinvent themselves, it is impossible to change their ways.]
[Not all contestants participating in the trial show are Song Juyao]
[There is only one million votes left, is it okay to vote?]
"I don't like lying. If I want to reply to you, I must lie, so please forgive me." Song Juyao stood up, sighed quietly, and said.
Xiang Yanning approached Mr.
Mr.
Her performance in the trial show was very exciting. When she found out that they wanted to kill people and silence them, she reacted intelligently and used words to confuse them. It was not impossible.
"Actually, I am also reborn." Song Juyao said with a smile.
What?!
Xiang Yanning and Mr.
There is no ashes left in the Mu family!
"In this case, we will be even more embarrassed to keep you." Mr.
she.
"It doesn't matter. If you have to do it, do it quickly. I'm tired too and want to go back." Song Juyao started walking in the warehouse, brushing her fingers against the wall. She looked at the fine dust on her fingertips.
"What do you mean? Are you pretending to be a ghost, or are you just talking nonsense with us and stalling for time to survive?" Xiang Yanning said angrily. She was very agitated by Song Juyao's attitude of hiding things behind her words. What does it mean to take action? She wants to go back?
They've all been killed, where are you going to go back?
Song Juyao turned to look at them, her gentle smile seemed to have changed slightly, making her scalp tense: "Of course, let's go back to the real world."
【!!!!】
【!!!!!】
【Hao Cao Cao!!!】
【My scalp is numb!】
【She knows again?!!!】
The audience was so frightened that the screen was filled with excited barrage. They originally thought that Song Juyao might have some back-up plan to be so calm. For example, she knew that His Majesty the King would come to save her, or that she
She can punch a judge, so she is not afraid at all. Who would have thought that she would actually say this! It was so sudden and unprepared. In this issue, she seemed to be living her daily life so normally and calmly, as if there was no trace of anything.
I wonder where the secret was exposed again and she knew it?
…
The excavator dug out the soil bit by bit along the passage. After digging for nearly three hours, they finally found what they were looking for, a basement, which was excavated.
It's not that the basement is very deep, but it's that the basement is very far away from the big banyan tree. With such a long tunnel, they dug it to the point where they almost suspected that they were overthinking it. It might just be a long tunnel dug by some rodent, just digging.
After digging, they stopped until they dug out a nest. They were a little unwilling to do so, so they continued digging, and they found a surprise.
The soil was dug up, and light fell into the space inside. The knights walked to the edge and looked down. Suddenly, an invisible gas spewed out from inside. The knights rolled their eyes and fainted.
The people on the periphery were shocked when they saw it. They quickly took a few steps closer to take a look, but they soon inhaled the gas and fainted.
The group that approached all fell down, and the remaining people in the distance immediately became alert when they saw it, and quickly retreated, not daring to approach at will.
"The target may be here."
"Be careful, be cautious. Get a batch of gas masks."
At the same time as the gas mask, the analytical instruments also arrived. The screen showed that the entire ground was covered with a layer of gas, which was steadily covering the area. Preliminary guess is that the ground below the ground protected by the gas is the basement.
Within the range, they can't get close.
The gas masks were quickly delivered. After putting on the masks, the second group of knights approached. This time they did not faint again. After confirming that the bottom was flat and there were no traps, they entered the cave through the rope ladder in a well-trained manner and spread the gas.
Come on.
"How's it going?" the commander asked the person on the other side of the headset.
No reply.
"Please answer if you hear me."
Still no reply.
There has been no response from there, as if the group of people had been killed instantly as soon as they got down. However, those knights were equipped with energy shields. Unless it was a gas attack, ordinary physical traps would not be able to kill them all at once.
Kill them.
"Crap. There must be another trap down there." And they don't know what trap it is. Are they really looking for a cat, rather than some mythical beast with intelligence or an awesome protector?
The news was quickly received in the palace.
When the house officer heard the news at the entrance of the palace, he came in happily and reported it to the king.
The heart has been found. There must be nothing wrong with the heart, otherwise it would not be possible to kill the entire King's Cavaliers so easily.
However, the king did not move. He stood there, looking at the live broadcast room, just like himself in the virtual world, standing silently out of sight of Song Juyao, listening to her words.
…
virtual reality.
Also frightened along with the audience were Xiang Yanning and Mr.
Xiang Yanning said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? What real world?!"
"Haven't you guessed it? This world is not real. If I guessed correctly, we should be in a virtual world, conducting a live trial. I am the one being judged, and you two... maybe
The judge is also the judge. With this status, I guess you should be criminals."
Song Juyao smiled and told the truth so calmly.
The audience in the real world exploded. How could she be so lighthearted and caught off guard and drop such a bomb?
The faces of Xiang Yanning and Mr.
It's fake. All their actions are exposed in front of billions of viewers. Even murderers like them are scared.
"No, it's impossible! You're talking nonsense! You're afraid of being killed, so you deliberately said these words to delay time and scare us!" Xiang Yanning said sharply, trembling slightly.
"Where's the evidence?" Mr. X asked with a pale face.
Song Juyao chuckled and said: "You are reborn, you are reborn, and I am reborn, and the three of us are criminals. This kind of coincidence is very wrong."
Dazzled by the joy of rebirth, the two people who ignored this coincidence suddenly felt dizzy, as if they were falling into an ice cellar. If what Song Juyao said is true, if what Song Juyao said is true
…
"The most important point is that I am actually the king's destined person. Don't you think it's ridiculous? Isn't this the most credible evidence? What happened to this issue? Why was such a script full of loopholes designed?
?" Song Juyao looked up, as if she wanted to see the camera of the trial show and the world outside the camera.
Song Juyao didn't know that the king was standing outside the warehouse, and with him were an impressive number of cars and knights. The warehouse had been surrounded, and not even a fly could enter or get out.
The soundproofing effect of the warehouse was not good, and Song Juyao stood relatively close, so he heard her words.
This real thing, in Song Juyao's opinion, is the most unbelievable and ridiculous thing.
His legs seemed to be frozen in place, and the suffocation of being unable to breathe made him feel very uncomfortable.
Something was burning in his chest, and it was burning into himself in reality. The king turned his head and strode out of the main hall with an ugly expression. The internal affairs officer hurriedly followed behind him.
"His Majesty?"
"Prepare the car." The king said word by word, clenching his fists: "I will go and catch it myself."
"Yes!" The king took action himself. There must be no problem in recovering the heart.
…
Xiang Yanning suddenly raised his eyes, which were bloodshot, "Is it true? Why not do an experiment?"
If they are really in a trial show, this is a virtual world. If they die in the virtual world, the judge will leave a body temporarily supplemented by the system, but if the person being judged dies, it will disappear directly.
So Xiang Yanning took out the knife she had prepared long ago and pounced on Song Juyao.
Song Juyao didn't move, she was ready to end the trial.
However, a shadow suddenly flashed in front of her eyes. Song Juyao took a closer look and saw that her cat bounced onto Xiang Yanning's face, scratching her with her sharp claws.
"Ah!!!" Xiang Yanning screamed, and the sharp cat claws actually scratched her fragile eyeballs.
Song Juyao was shocked: "Qiqi!"
Xiang Yanning was in pain and anger. She grabbed the fur on the cat's back, pulled it open, and threw it against the wall.
Song Juyao vaguely seemed to hear the sound of bones breaking. But the cat seemed not to feel the pain, got up from the ground, and rushed up again. This time it rushed towards Mr.
It was like an enemy, terrifyingly fierce, scratching and biting, trying to create an opportunity for Song Juyao to run away.
This familiar scene made Song Juyao feel dazed for a moment. Everything in front of him overlapped with scenes that seemed to have happened a long time ago...
[The cat squatting on the window sill suddenly rushed in and pounced on the young man who suddenly committed an attack, scratching and biting her. Song Juyao, with a pale face, grabbed her collar, rolled off the sofa, and ran out, but her limbs were soft and the medicine was still there.
Something was working inside her, stumbling.
She opened the study door and ran to the corridor. She heard the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground from behind. The beast chased her, threw her to the ground again, and tore her clothes and hair. The shrill cat meowed again.
When the sound sounded, the beast screamed in pain again, and Song Juyao once again got the chance to escape and got up from the ground.
This time she escaped to the stairs, turned her head inadvertently, and saw him grabbing one of the cat's hind legs and slamming it against the wall. She saw blood bleeding from the cat's eyes and nose, and then was thrown aside again.
, lying on the ground dying, it seemed to want to get up, but it couldn't get up no matter how hard it struggled.
Huo Hai's face and neck were scratched with blood, but it seemed that he was red-eyed because of it. Instead of calming down, he became even more crazy. His steps were already shaking, but he still came to catch her unremittingly.
She was frightened and angry. Huo Hai's fighting power had weakened a lot. The two struggled at the top of the stairs. In the end, she luckily pushed Huo Hai away. Huo Hai fell down and lay on the ground on the first floor, groaning.
Song Juyao was dizzy, unable to stand, and slowly fell down. In her hazy vision, she seemed to see the cat that was still struggling to stand up and protect her...]
Yes, Song Juyao remembered it. She vaguely remembered that the cat seemed to be dead before, but she couldn't remember how it died. Now she finally remembered it clearly. It died like this, in order to save her.
, was thrown and smashed several times, blood flowed from all the orifices, and it seemed that even the skull was almost broken.
Unconsciously, Song Juyao's eyes were filled with tears. She ran towards the killed cat, but before she could touch it, she saw the cat disappear out of thin air. She was stunned. Disappeared... Virtual
The protective mechanism of the world system did not work on it.
A possibility suddenly came to mind.
Song Juyao was thrown to the ground as if a bag of cement hit him from behind...
…
real world.
The king landed lightly and looked around. He was in a primeval forest, surrounded by lush vegetation. A terrifying dinosaur was standing in front of him, looking down at him. The terrifying fangs and short two forelimbs proved that this
It is undoubtedly a carnivorous dinosaur.
However, his silver eyes only glanced coldly, "It's a small trick."
Ignoring the dinosaur that was biting it with its open mouth, he raised his foot forward and crushed a stone on the roadside with one foot.
In an instant, the dinosaur that rushed towards him disappeared, and the scene in front of him disappeared.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!"
The knight lying on the ground screamed and woke up.
Just like the survival island in the second phase of Song Juyao's Trial, the moment they landed from above, they were pulled into the virtual world and trapped in it, unable to get out. Until the king crushed the hidden treasure under his feet.
Controller in the secret place.
Seeing the king, they quickly stood up.
The king ignored them and went forward, and a group of people quickly followed behind him.
The main body of this basement is not large, but the periphery is very wide, and there are several layers of traps. They are not fatal, but they can delay it for a long time - if the king does not come in personally.
Everything that Jiang Baiqi knew was made by the king. All the traps he made were made by the king. He was just a heart and the body of a kitten. During the year when Song Juyao was detained pending trial,
Over time, it was not easy to build this basement.
After walking through the trap-filled perimeter and opening the door, the narrow basement was exposed, including the cat lying in the crude biological cabin.
The cat's breathing was weak, dirty, and scarred, as if it was living in pain.
Chapter completed!
