C1657 Unreconciled
Xuan Hao's clear and cool voice was like broken jade that was smashed into the ground. It clearly sounded in Zhong Ming's ears.2
Zhong Ming looked at the weird looking corpse that was full of inscriptions. He felt like it was a real corpse, but when he thought of that, his eyebrows were lifted and his earlier roar was cut off.
Xuan Hao had his own thoughts, and Zhong Ming had his own thoughts. Zhong Ming wanted to confirm what exactly this piece of wood was made of. He slowly narrated it in a calm and cold voice, which formed an obvious contrast with Xuan Hao's crisp and excited voice just now.
Ye Zhong Ming, this extremely cold voice. Then, as if someone had poured cold water on him, he stopped and sat back down obediently on the ground.
Unlike Zhong Ming, who was always indifferent and noble, the domineering and unapproachable aura of an old man, Xuan Hao was indeed overly excited just now. It was reasonable to say that those with the least bit of curiosity would only think of this inscription when they saw something they did not understand. If they did not understand it, then it was common sense for them to be brave enough to explore the origin of this inscription. However, both Zhongming and the last two people chose to give in at the same time. No matter what their thoughts were, they both seemed to fulfill the principle of "curiosity kills the cat, so I don't move".
Of course, after recognizing his master, most of his ideas could not be accepted, and it could not be said to be a wise and despotic decision. With this realization in mind, and with him recognizing the people as his master, then he would have to consider the dangers in the future. If he had a suggestion, then he would also mention it to Zhong Ming and let him consider whether or not he should do so. In the end, Zhong Ming still made the decision. This way, no matter if it was respecting his master or making his own suggestion, he would be able to achieve perfect results.
However, when he first saw this inscription, he was actually a bit curious. But the first was because of Zhong Ming's protection, Xuan Hao did not reveal his own thoughts, moreover, this kind of black inscription was usually very fierce. If you were to search for the source of this inscription, then without exception, all of it would be useless.
This bit of curiosity was instantly extinguished by Xuan Hao in order to protect the two of them. The two of them clearly just wanted to take back the water chestnut and run away, so they had no obligation to help those ancient people solve these things, and also had no interest in getting involved in this mess. Thus, Zhong Ming didn't know that he was supposed to be the first one to find clues, so he quietly swallowed his thoughts.
And Zhong Ming is completely different from the brain circuit after spinning. He had lived for two lifetimes, and had experienced too many dark things. His conditioned reflex formed an extremely strict mechanism to protect his brain. The two of them had nothing in common. Looking at this corpse, or at least at the gray wooden block with black inscriptions engraved on it, the first thing that came to her mind was the sound of a siren. Normally, this type of thing would either be poisonous or suffocating. One would naturally be prepared for it after seeing it in a coma. Even if the two of them were outside the barrier, when the pieces of the corpse sprayed onto his body, he would immediately flick up his blue parts. The corpse fragments disintegrated, distancing itself from him, even forming a net of swords around him. This could actually be said to be a habit on Earth, a germaphobe or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Of course, Zhong Ming might not be obsessive compulsive disorder, but his behavior just now was definitely a germaphobe. After all, no one would want to come into contact with a poem. However, in order to fight, Xuan Hao had even placed a layer of protection on his dragon claw, so he could crush those puppets with his bare hands. Compared to Xuan Hao's rough and direct actions, Zhong Ming's protection of him just now was a little too tight. "In fact, he was not a germaphobic person. He was just afraid that those things would fall on him and affect him in a bad way.
He hadn't forgotten that he had just been possessed for some unknown reason and that he didn't have the time to study these reasons in detail. He didn't dare to take the risk in this kind of situation where he was hiding from the outside world. This kind of unknown thing made people scared, not to mention that he had already been possessed by the devil for some unknown reason, and he also had a trace of an abnormal mentality. In other words, his mind had been slightly twisted a little bit, and he did not dare to come into contact with any evil things in this situation, for fear that those evil things would cause a more devastating blow to his mind.
In this situation, Zhong Ming was extremely calm, extremely detailed and cautious. So, he didn't even have the slightest bit of curiosity and just missed out on a clue.
Actually, there were still a lot of clues at this stage. After all, in this city, although there was not a single person or living creature, there were still some grand designs. In other words, there must be some unknown secret hidden in this place before the city fell. The secret that everyone knew about was that the city had fallen into such a desolate and desolate state that only the empty shell remained.
In fact, these things weren't even worth mentioning in Zhong Ming's eyes because they had nothing to do with him at all. Although he loved and hated clearly and had an unusually upright mood, it did not concern him at all. He clearly came here just for the water chestnut, so he had no obligation to help solve the historical problems left behind by those unknown creatures. It might be said that he had offended the ancestors, but this was what Zhongning thought. All of his goals were focused on the water chestnut grass.
Perhaps for Zhong Ming, this kind of time, if he was too direct and only focused on completing the target route, then it would seem that he had some thoughts with the person who secretly manipulated him. However, the person who secretly manipulated him might not be his main intention here; his main intention was to let Zhou Ming enter the city, and then let Zhong Ming help her solve this weird and mysterious problem left behind by history. Zhong Ming felt that this person might not be sane in intelligence, or the remaining Spiritual Sense might have lived for too long, and were about to dissipate, so he just needed to find someone to help him complete the quest.
Zhong Ming was very confused. He hated things that were not under his control, and he also hated being manipulated by others to solve problems that he shouldn't be involved in.
It was just like on Earth, those children who were forced to learn, to do well in university, to work hard in this direction like a puppet, to be forced by their parents to work hard in school, to compete together, and finally to become top elites in this society, or to become commoners at the bottom, and then to pass this kind of thought on to the next generation. Of course, these thoughts weren't wrong. It was just that the majority of children were not interested in studying, but studying was just for ordinary people. In other words, the only stable and reliable way for those of the Humble Class to enter society. This kind of thinking was equivalent to Zhong Ming controlling it himself to achieve his goal without caring about anything else. It was actually the same idea. Zheng Xianghua himself wasn't that bad either, those people or Spiritual Sense stayed behind in order to find someone to help him solve those problems. In reality, it was just a way to seek help, not endangering a person's life, nor the interests of others. However, for everyone, this kind of thinking had a different degree of involvement and acceptance.
It was just like how, under the horrifying college entrance examination system on Earth, there were a few people who confirmed that they would definitely be able to pass the exam into a good university, become unknowable, struggle continuously and finally step into the upper echelons of society. There were people who had this kind of situation. It was better to be a person of the upper class. They just wanted to live their lives in peace and tranquility, so the acceptance of this idea was different for each of them. Thus, everyone was able to live a wonderful life.
It could only be said that Zhong Ming did not have much desire for the current situation and the aspect it involved. He did not understand exactly what those snacks wanted him to do, and he only cared about controlling the snacks, which he did not understand accurately, but he only cared about controlling the snacks and the desires he had to control them. Because of this, he had a deep sense of disgust and even developed a rebellious feeling, so he did not want to help Ye Mo solve the case in the dark.
In his eyes, those things weren't even fart. He just wanted a piece of water chestnut grass, and since this was not something he was looking for here, he could look for it elsewhere. There was no need to fight to the death in this place. There was no need to put both feet into the seemingly dangerous fog.
She and Xuan Hao were trapped in the fog, locked in this underground city. Even if Zhong Ming had space, he could live here for a very long time, even until his own death, but this situation wasn't what Zhong Ming wanted. If he wanted to solve it, then he would have to follow the clues that flowed out, and walk down step by step.
Even if he wasn't willing, Zhong Ming still wanted to continue.
