Hearing Zhang Ke's anxious urging, the boy knew that there was hope for survival. A light of hope flashed in his eyes. He immediately struggled to get up and stood up with Zhang Ke's help. Then he saw the murderer who was so arrogant just now.
, but at this moment, he seemed to have lost his mind, slashing and waving at the air, letting out a half-angry and half-sad roar, and you could even see a few tears flying from his eyes.
"You...what on earth did you do? You actually gave him--" The boy started to cry when he saw this ferocious murderer, and was so shocked that he couldn't even finish his sentence.
"I'll explain this later. Is this the time for small talk? If you can walk, run quickly -"
Zhang Ke couldn't help but pull the boy and ran all the way into the distance. After the boy tried to follow him for a few steps, he found that his legs were indeed fine. The fear in his heart slowly disappeared and his speed gradually increased.
In order not to disturb the murderer who was still immersed in the illusion of the past, they deliberately did not take a shortcut and climbed over the iron gate. Instead, they bypassed the murderer and ran all the way back to the community along the street. This also made the security guard at the door feel strange.
Why did the two of them go out for a run and exercise in the middle of the night?
"Huh - I should get rid of him now. With his remaining rationality, it is impossible to track him outside the field of vision." Sitting on a bench in the garden in the middle of the street, Zhang Ke took a long breath and then asked
He said, "Since there is no danger to your life, I will tell you straight away, you are also a time-traveler, right?"
_——Anyway, if the other party is an ordinary person, even if he hears it, he will only feel confused and forget it after one reincarnation. But if the other party is really a time-tracer, it will be more beneficial for each other to show off and explain it clearly, so as to avoid having to deal with it in the future.
Test each other and be wary of each other.
"Yes, I am indeed a time tracer." The boy nodded. After taking a few deep breaths, he obviously calmed down. While looking at Zhang Ke with some caution, he said with a little surprise, "However,
You actually asked directly? Generally speaking, don’t you have to conceal your identity, test and collect intelligence secretly, and don’t expose your identity until absolutely necessary?”
"That's for normal time-travelers like you, who are in danger of encountering reincarnation and death battles and being robbed of the Rorschach Ruler, but I am different." Zhang Ke said truthfully, "I don't have such a thing as a Rorschach Ruler, so
There is no need to fight with you, but in all the reincarnation death battles I have participated in, others have been involved, and I have no interest at all."
He glanced at the boy, raised his eyebrows and said, "Could it be that you are also keen on reincarnation and fighting to the death and subduing puppets? Then my existence may disappoint you."
"No, although I have come into contact with several time-traversers, I tried my best to persuade them not to fight, let alone subdue any puppets. After all, in this chaotic and unknown world, walking together is far better than being alone.
It's much more appropriate to play around as chess pieces. The intensifying internal fighting among the time-traversers will only continue to increase internal friction, making it impossible for everyone to get out of the maze of time reincarnation."
Unexpectedly, the boy who didn't look very old, after thinking for a moment, fluently said such a set of truths, which made Zhang Ke a little stunned, and he had to admit that he very much agreed with the other person's point of view.
This should be a conclusion that can only be reached after rational and mature reflection.
"Call me Qingyang. Thank you for helping me today." The boy stretched out his hand to Zhang Ke and said with a smile. His eyes looked clear and clear, without any trace of dirt.
"Zhang Ke."
"Then can I call you Brother Zhang Ke from now on? Your performance just now was really amazing. You actually easily subdued that arrogant murderer. What method did you use?" Qingyang said with great admiration,
His eyes were almost gleaming.
"That's...well, it's a hypnosis technique. It took me a lot of effort to succeed." Zhang Ke ran through several excuses in his mind, but found that none of them could be justified. In the end, he had to use so-called "hypnosis".
Foolish, after all, this kind of child should have read a lot of online novels, so he can easily accept the setting that "hypnosis can cause hallucinations", right?
"That's hypnosis? It turns out that hypnosis can really be as powerful as written in the novel - Brother, can you teach me, I'm not greedy, I just need to learn the trick I just used to subdue the murderer." Qingyang
He said hurriedly, his eyes sparkling even more.
"Of course, this cannot be taught casually! This kind of hypnosis technique is... very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will turn yourself into a lunatic. It requires at least ten years of hard work, and the success rate is not guaranteed. What I just said
It's just good luck." Zhang Ke hurriedly made up:
"You are too young now and your mind is not strong enough. You will definitely get into trouble if you practice randomly. Let's wait until you are an adult!"
Anyway, as long as the time cycle does not end, the other party will never grow up. If you say this, you are directly cutting off your thoughts about the other party.
"Okay... If you don't want to teach me, I won't teach you." The disappointed Qingyang swung his legs, looking as if he had completely forgotten the feeling of being injured.
"But why are you running out in the middle of the night? Even if you are a time-tracer, you are just a child. Who knows what dangers you will encounter." Zhang Ke said in a somewhat lecturing tone, "Don't think that you can run around if you can't die.
Well, if the Rorschach Ruler is taken away by others, life will really be worse than death."
"Actually, I got some information before, saying that the notorious murderer was also a time-tracer and appeared near our community, so I went out to investigate tonight. Who knew his strength was so abnormal -
—I was obviously ready to run away as soon as I met him, but I died inexplicably under his knife several times." Qingyang said with lingering fear:
"After this reincarnation started, I tried my best to set a trap for him and ran away. Finally, I managed to get some distance away. In the end, I bumped into a female passerby - you said where did the passerby come from in the middle of the night? What the hell, the result
This delayed a little more time, and I was finally caught up by him."
"The female passerby you mentioned is my friend. It was precisely because she told me this that I noticed that there was a time-tracing operation nearby and went out to check." Zhang Ke glanced at the hand in the other person's hand.
Pink gloves and tattered clothes.
——However, Yuan Mengmeng misunderstood one thing, that is, Qingyang was not a wanderer. He just got dirty and scratched on his clothes during the battle of wits and courage with the murderer.
"Tell me where you live. Let me take you back. Be careful when you go out later." Zhang Ke asked.
"It's the building next to it. You can get home in a few steps. Where are you, brother?"
"It turns out that you are also a resident of Jixiang Community, and so am I - our area is really not peaceful, there are actually time-travelers lurking everywhere." Zhang Ke couldn't help but said with a wry smile, "It's already very late, you
