Xia Fan couldn't help but rub his forehead. Even if the escape tower stopped operating, humans could continue to thrive, but once the protective circle failed, the situation would be completely different.
He suddenly thought of another question, "What about when this world was first established? It's impossible to bring a group of people from the earth to make fuel, right?"
"This is the disadvantage of the word soul." Sikong chuckled, "Except for fused life forms like you, once a person dies, he or she is dead. The condensed Qi does not mean that the person's consciousness is still alive. Even if it is The Escape Committee will not use secondary life forms as fuel, let alone natural people. Your problem is actually very simple, that is, the fused life form serves as the guide, just like the Qi Sensing person drives the magic weapon."
"Like me?" Xia Fan was slightly stunned.
"You are still far from meeting the requirements." Sikong replied, "Just as the power of chaotic entities is far stronger than that of small evil spirits, the consciousness closer to the human boundary can also transform more Qi. But this kind of fusion body is also very powerful. It’s easy to cross the border and become another kind of existence, so you’d better not try to take this step easily.”
"But you also said that I will become that kind of monster sooner or later."
"Because it is unrealistic to expect humans to restrain their curiosity. But before that, I still hope you will think more about the world."
Xia Fan looked at Sikong with a look of surprise on his face.
The latter raised his eyebrows slightly strangely, "What's wrong? Is there something strange on my face?"
"I didn't expect you to actually care about this world." He sighed. "I thought you wouldn't care about anything except completing the instructions given by the controller."
"" Si Kong rarely answered the question immediately.
Logical partitioning failed to provide the correct answer the first time.
How is this going
She searched the database and found nothing corrupted or missing. Could this part of the logic obstacle come from the escape tower part? After all, the multi-function doll has a limited size, and she can only carry a very limited part of the data.
But this doesn't trouble the best control systems.
She quickly reorganized an answer, "What I care about is not the world, but that once you cross the border, I can only return to a state of silence. This is not in line with the original intention of the escape tower: to serve mankind."
"Really?" Xia Fan didn't go into details. He noticed some wet marks on the lower half of the other person's hair and shoulders, and couldn't help but asked curiously, "Where were you when it rained last night?"
"On the tree tower."
"Why don't you go home?"
After returning to Jinxia City, he also arranged a residence for Sicong in the new residential area.
"If there is no fault, there is no reason to go back and repair it." Sikong said.
"You won't stand here all night until we arrive in the morning, right?" Xia Fan frowned.
"This saves energy. I don't need to sleep or eat. Interrupting the system operation will be harmful." She said unconcernedly, "What's more, the multi-functional doll has a good waterproof and moisture-proof function. Even if it is soaked in water, the body can Stays dry for a long time.”
But not like a real person. Xia Fan thought.
Although it doesn't make much sense to dwell on this, he doesn't want to see the other party independent in the rain.
"Okay, if the project is not busy, you can help me take care of Miss Luo." He thought for a while and said, "She has lost most of her eyesight, which makes her daily life quite inconvenient, especially when listening, reading, and writing. I think her situation would be much better if you were here."
Of course, this is an excuse.
Luo Qingqing does not need anyone to take care of her. At the same time, she is a very delicate girl. In addition, she usually lives with Luo Youer. With these two people looking at Sicong, she should not be seen standing alone in the rain again. What happened at night.
"I will do it." Sikong nodded simply, "If this is your request."
Jinxia City XC District, in a secluded house.
Zhou Sheng brought the last wine bottle to his mouth and poured it for a long time, but not a drop of wine came out.
He threw the bottle on the ground angrily, "There's no more wine."
No one around answered.
He suddenly raised his voice and said, "I said there was no more wine, didn't you hear it!?"
Still no one responded in the room.
He looked around the room with half-squinted eyes. Everywhere he looked was a mess, and there was no other person except him.
Yes, yesterday the last servant couldn't stand his scolding and beating, so he left the Zhou Mansion with his luggage. Now he was the only one left in the entire house.
Of course, it’s that person’s fault too! In the past, how could servants dare to just leave? Without redeeming the deed of betrayal, sooner or later you will be beaten up and caught after walking out of the door. Even if you are lynched to death, no one can say no. But what doesn't work now is banning human trafficking and restricting personal freedom as a felony, which makes these servants emboldened. With the government backing them, they can't just run away as they please!
I don’t even think about who will pay for the losses of wealthy families!
Forget it, go buy some bars yourself
Zhou Sheng stood up unsteadily, took out the money bag from his waist, and poured it into his palm. What fell into the palm was only a few broken pieces of silver.
Seeing this, he felt a surge of anger.
Has the Zhou family ever been so embarrassed
Not to mention that his family was rich and powerful, at least they lived with a lot of surplus. It was not until he accepted Fei Nian's dispatch and returned to Jinxia City to work for the Privy Council that his family situation took a turn for the worse. At that time, he not only had to arrange accommodation for the spies, but also had to pay for their unreasonable expenses. Even when the wages and rations were not paid in time, it was the Zhou family who paid in advance! After so many months of squandering, not much of the savings were left, and the Ten-State Alliance Army was completely defeated. The previously promised top three positions had become a joke!
He could never imagine that such a huge imperial court would lose to Jinxia City.
From then on, Zhou Sheng fell into despair.
He thought that the princess's people would come soon and take him to jail, but he did not expect that the Secretariat did not launch a large-scale manhunt after the war. The remaining spies completely disappeared from his sight, and he didn't know whether those people had fled away or joined the princess's side.
However, such days are definitely not pleasant.
The cloud of arrest always hangs over his head. Every time someone knocks on the door of the house, Zhou Sheng will feel frightened. It's not like he never thought about walking away, but that also meant that he gave up on the mission assigned to him by the court, and even the last chance of a comeback would no longer exist.
He sent his whole family to Liuzhou, which was already a desperate move. If he himself also escaped from Jinxia in despair, what would be left of the Zhou family
Could it be that he, a dignified scholar, will have to make a living by begging in his next life?
This is a path that Zhou Dacai is absolutely unwilling to choose.
Just as he stumbled into the yard, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open and a man walked in.
