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 it seemed that nothing was hidden.
"No?" said the other knight, holding the trunk in his hands.
"Light it up."
"Come back."
"It's all open."
"Fine."
Turn on the smart brain flashlight function on the wrist, a beam of light shoots/shoots out, aiming at the hole in the tree trunk, there is nothing in the hole.
"I'd say it's impossible."
"Wait, isn't this hole too deep?" The knight looked at the ground, then at the tree hole, and tried his best to peek inside, "I always think it's weird, why don't you dig the ground and take a look..."
Everyone in the palace is talented, and those who are fortunate enough to become knights naturally have their own advantages.
In order to fulfill His Majesty's orders, the knights are doing their due diligence and scrambling for each other. There will never be a situation where they ignore anything because they feel troublesome. If they think this hole is suspicious, then they must dig this hole to find out.
At first, they just used hoes, then they found that the hoes were not enough, so they used the earth drill, and finally found that the earth drill was not enough, so they used the excavator…
The ground vibrated uneasy, hidden in the deep basement, the dust rustled, and the parts on the table jumped, almost falling off the table...
in the virtual world.
Sanhua cat opened her eyes uneasily in Song Juyao's arms, sat up vigilantly, looked down and saw Song Juyao frowning slightly in her sleep, and subconsciously licked the center of her eyebrows, trying to lick the folds flat, Full of soothing flavors.
As a result, Song Juyao was licked and woken up.
"...Morning." Song Juyao patted its head and reached out to take a look at the small alarm clock on the bedside table. It was past seven in the morning, and it was time to get up.
Song Juyao got up to wash, the cat followed behind her and kept barking. Song Juyao couldn't help but wonder if it was in heat, and considered whether to take it for sterilization.
Thinking like this, after washing, she picked up the cat, stuffed it into the cat bag, and walked to the bus stop, preparing to take the bus to the pet hospital.
The bus didn't come late, the cat meowed more and more, and began to scratch wildly. In this state, Song Juyao was affected, and Song Juyao's heartbeat was inexplicably disordered, and he felt a sense of unease. Song Juyao was about to call a taxi when a black car drove over.
"Ju Yao." The car window slid down, revealing Xiang Yanning's face. She glanced at her cat, "Want to go to the pet hospital? Come on, I'll give you a ride."
"no need."
"Come on, let's discuss something with you by the way."
Song Juyao stared at Xiang Yanning for a while, the cat meowing even more, so she had to open the door and sit in.
【Ah, ah, don't go in! ! ! 】
[Dangerous, dangerous, dangerous! ! ! 】
【? ? What's wrong? 】
[The two judges are too boring, why don't you just lick my slender face, you didn't even see what they did, what's the matter? 】
【Don't be scary! 】
There are too few audiences to see what the two judges and judges are doing. They are neither celebrities nor prosperous and beautiful, and they are doing boring and old-fashioned things. Most of the audience gathered here at Song Juyao. , so in a large wave of barrages, I didn't even see an answer.
Meanwhile, in the palace.
The king felt something and frowned.
He stood up, "Prepare the car."
Internal Affairs Officer: "Yes." We must go to the Queen again.
…
Wearing sunglasses, Xiang Yanning was 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 work in the palace before, did you see the king?"
"Not every maid can see His Majesty the King."
"Yes." Xiang Yanning's facial muscles seemed to relax a little, "Why do you keep 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 my head down. Ju Yao, where's your necklace? Why don't you wear it?"
"I don't want to wear it."
"Then sell it to me, I like it quite a bit, you can say a price." Xiang Yanning's voice was raised, a little excited.
"No." Song Juyao lowered his eyes and said.
She knows what this woman is thinking, and counting the time, this issue is almost over, the number of votes should be about the same, and it's good to end it as soon as possible. She feels uncomfortable in this issue and can't wait to return to the real world in. Even the real world is not much better, but at least it is better than this false reality - she can't find Jiang Baiqi, the one who is most like Jiang Baiqi, has an identity she can't accept.
The car drove forward steadily and gradually entered a section of road with few vehicles. Xiang Yanning received a call.
"No?"
"I've searched." The man over there said, 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 he rummaged through the corners, " Either it's on her, or she's hiding."
"Are you sure you didn't tell her about the necklace?"
"Am I stupid to tell her?"
"Okay, come and meet me."
The call is over.
The car drove into a warehouse. After the car entered, the rolling shutter automatically slid down and closed.
Song Juyao seemed to have finally discovered something was wrong, and looked at Xiang Yanning, "What are you doing?"
Xiang Yanning took off his sunglasses and smiled: "I have nothing to do, I just want your necklace."
"Why? Is there any major secret hidden in this chain?" Song Juyao looked calm, without the slightest panic of being kidnapped.
"You don't have to worry about it. You hand over the necklace and I'll let you go."
Song Juyao smiled, "I think you are more likely to kill me and silence me."
The camouflaged smile disappeared, and Xiang Yanning's eyes turned grim, "Yes, but I can let you choose the method of death. It's better to die easily than a painful death, right?"
"I guess, your companion should be Mr. X." Song Juyao was still calm and not panicked at all.
Song Juyao thought to himself that Mr. X wanted to use his friendship with her to climb the line to the palace and become the top figure in this country's pyramid, but she ignored him at all, so he must have become angry, when he found out that Xiang Yanning They are also reborn, and after knowing the blood of the contract, the two of them summed up and reached a cooperative relationship of mutual benefit.
Being so greedy, he has already used the prophet of the future to gain fame and fortune, but he still wants the identity of the person appointed by the king, trying to use the blood of the contract to pretend to be a replacement. They are going to tell a big lie. In this case, they will definitely kill Song Juyao, the real phoenix, otherwise her existence will be a fatal threat to them.
It's a pity that they don't know that the blood of the contract is gone, and she has already seen the king.
【? ? I figured it out! 】
[I'm going, I'm so daring, I'm still trying to deceive the king? 】
[Therefore, it is said that people need to read a lot in order to know common sense, be sensible, and not do stupid things. They must not know that His Majesty the King and the destined person have telepathy, and they want to be the king's destined person with a certificate, it's too beautiful.]
[Song Juyao is so calm, she is not panic at all! 】
【What are you panicking about? Don't forget how slim she is, not to mention brain power, self-defense and swordsmanship are all her skills. 】
aiyueshuxiang.com
Song Juyao didn't see the slightest panic, opened the car door, and walked out. She opened the cat bag, and the cat jumped out at once, clinging to Song Juyao's ankle, frying vigilantly.
"Are you ill? Are you still thinking of a beast at this time?" Xiang Yanning also got out of the car, frowning when Song Juyao still had time to touch the cat.
The entire warehouse is sealed, Song Juyao can't get out of the car, she is not afraid of Song Juyao's resistance, she is taller and stronger than Song Juyao, and her companion is about to arrive.
Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.
The back door of the warehouse opened, and a fair and gentle man walked in with a smile.
"I finally see you, Miss Song, I've been fascinated by you for a long time."
Song Juyao: "Mr. X."
"But you make me very sad. You turned a blind eye to my favor. I thought we could be friends."
[Bah, are you worthy? 】
[This is a phoenix man who killed his wife! 】
[These two are really helpless. If you try again, they will follow the old path. It is really like this. Unless you go back to the mother's womb and recreate it, it is impossible to reform.]
[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 to lie. If I want to reply to you, I must lie, so please forgive me." Song Juyao stood up, sighed faintly, and said.
Xiang Yanning approached Mr. X, frowned and said in a low voice, "Her reaction is very strange, she's not afraid at all, is there something hidden behind her?"
Mr. X frowned, having a bad premonition in his heart, and asked Song Juyao: "What do you mean by that?" He thought again, this is Song Juyao, could she be pretending to be profound? After all, her performance in the trial show was very exciting. When she found out that they were going to kill people, she responded wisely, and it was not impossible to confuse them with words.
"Actually, I was also reborn." Song Juyao said with a smile.
What? !
Xiang Yanning and Mr. X were stunned and looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise. Both of them have been reborn, and it seems that one more Song Juyao is not impossible! Thinking about it carefully, Song Juyao's fate has changed, and the Mu family has no ashes left!
"If this is the case, we will keep you even more." Mr. X said. She must also know that she is the person destined by the king. She didn't know that they were going to kill her. Knowing it, it was even more impossible to bypass her.
"It doesn't matter, I have to do it quickly. I'm also tired and want to go back." Song Juyao walked around 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 talking nonsense with us and delaying time in order to survive?" Xiang Yanning said angrily. Song Juyao's attitude that seemed to hide the words in his words made him very anxious. What do you mean, she wants to go back? They were all killed, where are they going back
Song Juyao turned his head to look at them, his gentle smile seemed to change slightly, making one's scalp tense: "Of course, go back to the real world."
【! ! ! ! 】
【! ! ! ! ! 】
[Hastily! ! ! 】
【Scalp is numb! 】
【Does she know again? ! ! ! 】
The audience was frightened, the collective climax, and the excited barrage filled the screen. They originally thought that Song Juyao might have a back-up move, so she was so calm. For example, she knew that His Majesty the King would come to save her, or that she could punch a judge, so she was not afraid at all. How could she have thought that she would say Say this! It was too sudden and unexpected. In this episode, she seemed to live every day so normally and peacefully, as if she had no doubts.
…
The excavators dug out the soil little by little 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 hidden deep, but the basement is very far away from the big banyan tree. They dug such a long passage that they almost suspected that they were thinking too much. It might just be a long passage dug by rodents, just digging. They were all digging, and they stopped before digging a nest. They were a little unwilling, so they continued to dig, and they found a surprise.
The soil was dug up, and the light fell into the space inside. The knights walked to the side and looked down. Suddenly, an invisible gas spewed out of it. The knight rolled his eyes and fainted.
When the people on the outside saw it, they were shocked. They quickly took a few steps closer to take a look, but they quickly inhaled the gas and fainted.
The group that approached, all collapsed, and the remaining people in the distance saw it, they immediately became alert, and quickly stepped back, not daring to approach at will.
"The target may be here."
"Be careful, be careful. Get a batch of gas masks over here."
At the same time as the gas mask, the analytical instrument also arrived. The screen showed that the entire ground was covered with a layer of gas, which was stably covered in that area. Preliminary guesses that the ground protected by the gas was all basement. range, they cannot get close.
Gas masks were quickly delivered, and after putting on the masks, the second group of knights approached. This time, they didn't faint again. After confirming that the bottom was flat and there were no traps, they were trained to enter the hole through the rope ladder and spread out.
"How is it?" the commander asked the person on the other side of the headset.
No echo.
"Please answer if you hear me."
Still no response.
There was no echo there, it was as if the group of people were instantly killed as soon as they got down, they lost contact. But those knights are equipped with energy shields. Unless it is a gas attack, it is impossible for ordinary physical traps to kill them all at once.
"Crap. There must be other traps down there." And they didn't know what it was. Are they really looking for a cat, not some magical beast with intelligence or a great protector
The news was soon received in the palace.
The internal affairs officer heard the news at the gate of the palace, and hurriedly came in happily to report to the king.
The heart has been found, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with the heart, otherwise it would be impossible to kill the entire Kings and Knights team so easily.
However, the king didn't move. He stood there, watching the live broadcast room, just like himself in the virtual world, standing silently in a place Song Juyao couldn't see, listening to her.
…
virtual reality.
Xiang Yanning and Mr. X were also frightened along with the audience. Ma Yi crawls from the soles of the feet to the scalp in an instant, the truth beyond imagination always makes people feel particularly terrifying.
Xiang Yanning said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? What real world?!"
"Did you not guess it? This world is not real. If I guessed correctly, we should be in the virtual world, and the trial is being broadcast live. I am the judge, you two... Maybe the judge Judges and judges. With this kind of status, I guess, you should be criminals."
Song Juyao smiled and said the truth so calmly.
Real-world audiences exploded. How could she drop such a bomb so lightly and unexpectedly
Xiang Yanning and Mr. X's expressions were unpredictable, and they looked around uncontrollably in horror, but couldn't see anything at all. How terrifying what Song Juyao said, made their limbs cold and their expressions cracked. If this is false, all their actions will be exposed to the eyes of billions of viewers, and even murderers like them will be afraid.
"No, it's impossible! You are talking nonsense! You are afraid of being killed, so you deliberately say these words to delay time and intimidate us!" Xiang Yanning said sharply, trembling slightly.
"Where's the evidence?" Mr. X asked with a pale face.
Song Juyao said with a low smile: "You are reborn, you are reborn, and I am also reborn, and the three of us are criminals. This kind of coincidence is very wrong."
Overwhelmed by the joy of being reborn, the two who even ignored this coincidence suddenly felt dizzy, like 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 would be the king's ordained person, don't you think it's ridiculous? Isn't this the most credible evidence? What happened to this issue? Why did you design such a flawed script? ?" Song Juyao looked up, as if he wanted to see the camera of the trial show, and wanted to see the world outside the camera.
Song Juyao didn't know that the king was standing outside the warehouse, and there were a number of imposing cars and knights with him. The warehouse was already surrounded, and not even a fly could get in or out.
The sound insulation of the warehouse is not good, Song Juyao stood closer again, he heard her words.
This real thing, in Song Juyao's opinion, is the most unbelievable and the most ridiculous thing.
His legs seemed to be frozen in place, and the suffocation that he couldn't breathe made him feel very uncomfortable.
Something in the chest was burning, burning to the real self. The king turned his head and strode away from the main hall with an ugly face. The internal affairs officer hurriedly followed behind him.
"His Majesty?"
"Prepare the car." The king said word by word, clenching his fists: "I'll catch it myself."
"Yes!" The king took action himself, and there must be no problem in recovering the heart.
…
Xiang Yanning suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, "Is it true, why don't you do an experiment!"
If they are really in the trial show, this is the virtual world. If they die in the virtual world, the inquisitor 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 for a long time and rushed towards 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. Her cat bounced on the face of Xiang Yanning, who was attacking, and its sharp claws scratched wildly.
"Ah!!!" Xiang Yanning screamed, the sharp cat's claws scratched her fragile eyeballs.
Song Juyao was shocked: "Qiqi!"
Xiang Yanning was in pain and anger, grabbed the fur on the cat's back, pulled it apart, and smashed it against the wall.
In the vagueness, Song Juyao seemed to hear the sound of bones breaking. But the cat didn't seem to feel the pain, got up from the ground, and rushed up again. This time it rushed towards Mr. X, as if it had determined that the two were enemies, terrifyingly fierce, scratching and biting, trying to create an opportunity for Song Juyao to run away.
This familiar scene made Song Juyao dazed for a moment. Everything in front of him overlapped with the scene that seemed to have happened a long time ago...
[The cat squatting on the windowsill suddenly rushes in and pounces on the sudden murderer, scratching and biting. Song Juyao grabbed the collar with a pale face, turned over from the sofa, and ran out, but her limbs were soft and the medicine was in It worked inside her, stumbled.
She opened the door of the study and ran to the corridor. She heard the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground from behind. The beast chased after her and threw her to the ground, tearing her clothes and hair. The shrill cat meowing sounded again, and the beasts let out a pained cry. Song Juyao got another chance to escape and got up from the ground.
This time she fled to the top of the stairs, turned her head inadvertently, and saw that he grabbed one of the cat's hind legs and slammed it against the wall. She saw that the cat's eyes and nose were bleeding, and then she was thrown aside , lay dying on the ground, it seemed to remember, but it couldn't get up no matter how hard it struggled.
Huo Hai was scratched with blood on his face and neck, but he seemed to be red-eyed because of it. He didn't calm down because of this, but became even more crazy. His footsteps were already shaking, but he still came to grab her persistently.
She was frightened and angry, Huo Hai's fighting power was much weaker, the two were entangled at the stairs, and finally she was lucky enough to push Huo Hai away, Huo Hai fell and lay on the ground floor.
And Song Juyao was dizzy, couldn't stand, and slowly fell down. In a hazy vision, she seemed to see a cat that was still struggling to stand up to protect her...]
Yes, Song Juyao remembered. She vaguely remembered before that the cat seemed to have died, but she couldn't remember how it died, and now she finally remembered it clearly. It died like this. In order to save her, it was dropped and smashed several times, and all the seven orifices bleed, and it seemed that even the skull was almost shattered.
Before she knew it, Song Juyao's eyes were full of tears. She ran to the side of the killed cat, but before she could touch it, she saw the cat disappear in front of her eyes out of thin air. She was stunned. Disappeared... The defense mechanism of the virtual world system did not work against it.
A possibility suddenly came to mind.
As if a bag of cement was smashed from behind, Song Juyao was thrown to the ground all of a sudden...
…
real world.
The king landed lightly and looked around, he was in a primeval forest, surrounded by lush, and a terrifying dinosaur was standing in front, looking down at him. Those terrifying tusks and two short forelimbs proved that this was undoubtedly a carnivorous dinosaur.
However, his silver eyes just glanced indifferently, "Tiny tricks of eagles."
Ignoring the dinosaur biting with its mouth wide open, he lifted his foot forward and smashed a stone on the side of the road with one foot.
In an instant, the dinosaur that rushed over disappeared, and the scene in front of him disappeared.
"Ahhhh!!"
The knight who was 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, trapped in it, and could not get out. Until the king smashed the controller hidden in the secret place with one foot.
Seeing the king, they hurriedly stood up.
The king ignored them and went straight forward, a group of people hurriedly followed behind him.
The main body of this basement is not large, but the perimeter is very wide, and there are several traps. It is not fatal, but it can be delayed for a long time - if the king does not come in in person.
All the things that Jiang Baiqi will meet are the king's. All the traps he made, the king has done. He only has a heart and only the body of a kitten. During the one year Song Juyao was detained and awaiting trial, it was not easy to build this basement.
Walking past the trap-filled perimeter and pushing open the door, the narrow basement was exposed, including the cat lying in the humble biological cabin.
The cat's breath was weak, dirty, and scarred, as if it were alive in pain.
The shadow of the king enveloped him.
