Hannah's warning to Jingchen seemed to arouse her rebellious psychology.
Jingchen found Mai Ziwen who was looking for water alone, and used her mysterious water to help Mai Ziwen wipe his body.
There was an unnatural ripple in Mai Ziwen's heart.
This scene was seen by Fan Li from a distance, "Mai Ziwen, you will be on guard for the first round tonight. The horse warriors may come after you at any time, so you must stay vigilant."
His words seemed to have a meaning.
After Mai Ziwen nodded in confirmation, Fan Li turned and walked away from a distance.
When Mai Ziwen turned to look at Jingchen, he felt much calmer.
He turned around to leave.
Jingchen blocked him, "I don't understand, you seem to be very nice to me, but... Mai Ziwen, are you afraid of me?"
Mai Ziwen shook his head slightly, "I can't tell."
Jingchen smiled bitterly, "So, I'm just scared.
She looked up at Tianyu, "Life is a beautiful miracle, but loneliness will only bring eternal pain. Mai Ziwen, don't waste your life, okay?"
Mai Ziwen smiled kindly, "I'm going to go on sentry duty."
Jingchen still refused to give up, "If you are willing to live such a life..."
She raised her eyebrows charmingly, then turned and left.
Mai Ziwen stared at Jingchen as he left, smiled, and turned to leave.
That night.
The first round of Mai Ziwen's vigil.
Outside the campsite, Mai Ziwen was not in a calm mood.
Jingchen's meaning was obvious. Although Mai Ziwen, as a man, had a heart that moved, this didn't seem to be what he wanted.
As Mai Ziwen was thinking, he felt that time passed quickly.
The second round of Tesla vigil has arrived, "Is there any movement ahead?"
Mai Ziwen did not leave immediately, "I heard the cry of wild beasts, but found no trace of the horse warriors."
Tesla looked into the distant night sky and said, "Mai Ziwen, you know, sometimes I think that the secret of life can also be found in a civilized society."
Mai Ziwen was surprised, "Do you mean to return to a civilized society?"
It is still not easy to make Tesla, a scientific madman, sigh like this.
It can be seen that this terrible Tianwu environment really makes people long for civilization.
However, Mai Ziwen could also understand that after all, this was a primitive jungle, and technological equipment and materials were not enough to support Tesla, so he could only pursue scientific research ideas as he pleased.
Tesla said faintly, "Although I am already tired of that boring life."
Mai Ziwen showed a relieved smile, "Do you think the outside world will still remember us?"
Tesla smiled half-heartedly, "I heard that you have a first love, are you thinking about her? I thought you had already looked away from everything."
Mai Ziwen was reticent and said, "You think, do I still have a choice? In today's outside world, everyone should think that we are all dead."
Tesla said deeply, "You always have a chance."
Mai Ziwen sighed quietly, "Even if she is really waiting for me, I can't look back."
Tesla looked at him solemnly, "If you ask for my advice, I will ask what you really want.
"I noticed the way Jingchen looked at you."
Mai Ziwen laughed disapprovingly, "Haha, she is just grateful to me."
Tesla was happy, "Haha, young people always waste their youth. If I were still your age and there was a beautiful girl looking at me like that...
"I will know what to do. Also, you are a waiter, not a doer."
Mai Ziwen was not convinced, "That's not the case. Moreover, you are also a master of theory. I heard that except for scientific research, you have never had contact with women until now."
Tesla did not deny, “Of course, everyone has physiological needs, otherwise, the world will become a more wonderful place.
"And when you observe and record what you see with an outsider's perspective, your feelings are different."
Mai Ziwen lowered his head, "Yes, engrave it on my tombstone: Mai Ziwen is a waiter, not a doer."
He raised his head again, signaled to Tesla, then turned and walked towards the campsite.
When passing Jingchen's camping tent, he found Jingchen taking off her clothes and wiping her body with a handkerchief.
Looking at her curvaceous body from behind, she has the proportions of a true golden figure.
Mai Ziwen couldn't help but walked over there.
Maybe what Tesla said just now stimulated his manly dignity.
Perhaps hearing the noise, Jingchen instinctively turned around and looked over.
When Mai Ziwen saw Jingchen's face, he immediately let out an unbearable scream, "Ah..."
The horrifying emotion devoured his nerves, and he couldn't help but stumbled back, "No!"
Because he saw Jingchen's originally flawless face turned into an old and terrifying look.
The wrinkled state was even ten times that of his image after his life was absorbed by the demon tree.
Things that were originally beautiful suddenly turned into such an ugly and ferocious state in the dead of night, especially Jingchen's back, which was still so beautiful.
This strong visual contrast almost scared Mai Ziwen to the point of peeing.
Moreover, he even suspected that the person in front of him was not Jingchen at all, but a monster that had taken over Jingchen's perfect body.
Jingchen covered his face with a handkerchief, and in the next moment, he took the handkerchief away.
Just like a face change in Peking Opera, that scary wrinkled old face instantly transformed into Jingchen's original youthful and beautiful appearance.
She happened to be looking at Mai Ziwen with a sweet smile.
Mai Ziwen was stunned, "Jingchen?"
The alert Tesla rushed over with a gun, "Mai Ziwen?"
Fan Li and the others were also awakened, "What happened?"
Mai Ziwen was incoherent and took a few steps back, "She, she..."
He stared at Jingchen, unable to react for a moment, "How are you?"
Over there, Fan Li, who was awakened, immediately stood up and nervously picked up his weapon.
Jingchen here showed a bright smile to Mai Ziwen, "I'm fine."
Mai Ziwen was shocked and still couldn't figure out the scene just now, "Her face is so... so ferocious and lifeless. You are... that is a dying old woman."
Tesla has arrived here and sees that everything is as usual, "Mai Ziwen, calm down."
Mai Ziwen was still excited, "I saw it!"
The smile on Jingchen's face gradually disappeared, "Mai Ziwen, you read that right."
Hannah and Chloe gathered around confused.
Mai Ziwen's heart palpitated, "Then what did you just do?"
Jingchen's expression changed, and she soon returned to smiling, looking very calm, "What you see is true."
Fan Li narrowed his eyes slightly.
Jingchen showed an apologetic expression towards Fan Li and the others, "My friends, I'm very sorry. I deceived everyone before."
Hannah scorned, "She finally told us the truth."
Jingchen looked solemn, "I am not a descendant of the people who lived here, but the luckiest one among them."
Mai Ziwen was speechless.
Fan Li was speechless, "You'd better keep telling lies."
Jingchen was not disturbed, "We are indeed here looking for the elixir of immortality, and we have also found the fairy water that makes people stay young forever."
