"'Truth Talking Card', 1 number of times of use, effective immediately after use, any questions asked to the used object, the used object will answer truthfully, cannot lie, lasts for 30 minutes."

As soon as 711 finished speaking, Lu Shijin saw a white light that only he could see flying towards Du Jiang, but Du Jiang didn't feel it.

"Du Jiang, let me ask you again, can we trust you?" Lu Shijin asked Du Jiang with a smile on his face.

Du Jiang wanted to say "can" swearingly, but for some reason, his tongue touched the palate, and the initial consonant of "can" was about to be pronounced, and his tongue suddenly knotted, and he said "can't".

Du Jiang's face changed instantly, how could he unknowingly speak the truth? !

"What did you say?" Xiang Ting was taken aback when he heard Du Jiang's answer. Was Du Jiang joking

However, Lu Shijin knew that the "truth card" had taken effect, and what Du Jiang said was clearly his true thoughts.

He knew that this grandson had a ghost in his heart.

Lu Shijin folded his arms, resting his chin with one hand, and looked at Du Jiang from head to toe. The eyes looked like he was watching an animal performance in a zoo, and Du Jiang felt terrified, "Why are you looking at me like that? ?”

Lu Shijin smiled slightly, "Don't be nervous, let's play a game."

"What game?" Du Jiang took a step back subconsciously, he suddenly regretted coming here tonight.

Lu Shijin raised his eyebrows, "I'll ask you an answer. I'll ask you, have you betrayed us?"

Du Jiang shook his head and wanted to deny it, but his mouth was out of the control of his brain, and he answered honestly: "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to bite off his tongue, and pointed at Lu Shijin in horror, "You, what kind of magic did you do to me!"

"Witchcraft?" Lu Shijin sneered, "You have a ghost in your heart, and you accidentally said the truth, and you blame me? Did I use a knife to force you to admit it?"

Xiang Ting's face was condensed, anger rose between his eyebrows, and the gun in his hand was raised again, "Du Jiang, what do you want to do?"

"I, I..." Du Jiang wanted to explain, but he couldn't say any deceptive words. He was afraid that he would talk nonsense again, so he simply covered his mouth with his hand, turned around and ran away.

Lu Shijin immediately shouted: "Chasing! Don't let him go to rescue soldiers!".

Xiang Ting had already rushed towards Du Jiang vigorously. Du Jiang, a frail scholar, could outrun Xiang Ting, and was caught by Xiang Ting within two steps.

Knowing that Du Jiang's visitor was not kind, Xiang Ting stopped thinking about his teammates' friendship, and tied Du Jiang firmly to the tree trunk with a rope, making Lu Shijin feel sorry for him.

Lu Shijin took out a dagger, patted Du Jiang's face with the blade, and said with a smile: "Du Jiang, I knew you were dishonest and played tricks to kill you. You thought you just made up a story, and I and Xiang Will Ting believe it? Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Du Jiang clenched his teeth tightly and closed his mouth tightly, as if I would not speak no matter why you are.

Lu Shijin sneered, moved the dagger down, and threatened coldly: "Do you think that if you don't speak, I will have nothing to do with you? If I go down with the knife, you may become a eunuch. You have to think clearly. Be a eunuch or tell me the truth?"

"Despicable!" Du Jiang squeezed out two words from between his teeth, and stared at Lu Shijin resentfully, his teeth clucking, wishing he could eat his flesh raw.

"Did I hear you right? You despicable villain, but you call others despicable?" Lu Shijin's hand shook deliberately, and he slashed open Du Jiang's trousers, and cut the knife at the base of his thigh.

Du Jiang screamed in pain, Lu Shijin was afraid that he would attract the enemy too loudly, and motioned Xiang Ting to cover Du Jiang's mouth with a rag.

Lu Shijin said impatiently: "I don't have much patience. If you still refuse to tell the truth, my hands won't shake anymore after this stabbing. Whether you want to tell the truth or become a eunuch is up to you."

Du Jiang's eyes were wide open, and he dared not speak out against the cruel Lu Shijin, this man is a devil!

"Have you thought it through? Do you still want to answer my question?" Lu Shijin ignored Du Jiang's eyes and asked coolly.

Du Jiangxin nodded slowly reluctantly.

Lu Shijin curled his lower lip coldly, and took the cloth strip from Du Jiang's mouth, "Say, why did you betray us?"

The beauty of the "truth card" is that as long as the user speaks, they will know everything and say everything, even if they want to hide it, they can't hide it.

Like pouring beans, Du Jiang spit out the truth all at once.

It turned out that when Xiang Ting and the others arrived at Lin Dong's house that day, Du Jiang saw so many materials stored in the basement of Lin Dong's house, and wanted to take these materials for himself.

The basement is full of supplies. Even if others want to take them, they can get very limited. But Du Jiang is different. His storage space can hold several warehouses. With these supplies, he can live a very long life. It was a long time without worrying about food, but Lin Dong said he didn't want to go on the road with them, so Du Jiang had the idea of snatching these supplies.

Such an insidious and dishonorable idea, of course, cannot be clearly stated to Xiang Ting and the others. Since they are leaving the next morning, these supplies have nothing to do with him. Du Jiang is very anxious.

So he excused himself to go outside to look for supplies, trying to find a way to force Lin Dong to go on the road with them.

Unexpectedly, he really found a way.

Du Jiang met a group of people and overheard that the group was looking for supernatural beings to join their organization. Those people claimed that their base was very harmonious and united, and they didn't have to worry about being hunted down by humans, and their living conditions were very favorable , in addition to three meals a day, you can also obtain the crystal nucleus evolution ability by doing tasks. Du Jiang, who has had enough of hiding and fleeing in Tibet, can't help but be moved.

So he took the initiative to find those people and expressed his willingness to join them, and also said that he had a few companions, but the companions were not necessarily willing to listen to him, so they asked them to help him perform a play together, and tricked his companions to the base go.

Those people agreed to Du Jiang, and not long after, Tang Qin and Su Ling came out to find Du Jiang, and those people tied them up together as Du Jiang said, and then went to Lin Dong's house to find other people.

Du Jiang originally thought that for the sake of the entire team, having a stable place to stand, isn't it better than Desperate Tianya? But he never expected that Xiang Ting would suddenly evolve a supernatural power, and he would kill all these supernatural beings by himself, and rescued them all with ease.

Under Du Jiang's self-directed and self-acting, although Lin Dong succeeded in setting off with them, his plan to deceive Xiang Ting and the others to go to the base with him failed, and even offended the people at the base, who knows Will he be hunted down by others for revenge because of this incident

Once he told a lie, he had to use countless lies to cover it up. Du Jiang was afraid that his scheming would be exposed, and he didn't want to continue living a hard life with Xiang Ting and the others, so he thought of leaving alone.

But if he left, the supplies that belonged to Lin Dong would naturally have to be returned to others. Of course, Du Jiang would not be willing to let him take out the things that were in his pockets.

Du Jiang suddenly remembered that the people at the base said that there was a zombie incident in a town not far away, so he had another plan. He could borrow the opportunity to find supplies and escape by feigning death.

So, he deliberately drove Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting to a town with zombies under the pretext of looking for gasoline. Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting knew what happened next.

"You betrayed us just because of those supplies?" Xiang Ting suddenly felt that he was ridiculous. He did this to him several times, regardless of the safety of his teammates. He would betray him without hesitation for some food, and even killed him. , What kind of demons and ghosts did he stay with before? It's ridiculous!

Having said all this, Du Jiang no longer concealed it, simply tore his face, and said angrily: "Yes! People don't kill for themselves. In the last days, only the strong can live longer. But my ability is useless except for holding things, I can't rely on others and you to live forever, I have to think about my own survival, I just want to live longer, is there something wrong?!"

What answered him was a shrill and angry meow. Fat Ju jumped down from the stone nimbly, kicked his hind legs up, scratched his paw on Du Jiang's leg fiercely, and bit again to vent his anger.

Du Jiang screamed in pain. He didn't know that Lin Dong had changed Fat Ju, so of course he didn't understand why Fat Ju would suddenly scratch him.

Fat Ju was so angry that his beard was shaking. Du Jiang, a shameless person, stole all the food and supplies he had hoarded for so long. He couldn't be angry, but he still remembered Lu Shijin's order, and he didn't reveal his identity. With round cat eyes, he glared at Du Jiang gloomyly, showing his fangs in protest from time to time.

"There's nothing wrong with wanting to live," Lu Shijin waved his hand to make Fat Ju retreat, and said coldly, "But you snatch details that don't belong to you, use the teammates who helped you along the way, betray him, and even put him to death, that's a big deal." You are so wrong! Haven’t you awakened yet? Even if you can survive to the end in the last days by stealing, robbing and cheating, you are just a despicable person who can only live in the shadows forever!”

Du Jiang laughed loudly: "Yes, I'm despicable, I'm shameless, I'm dark, but how can Xiang Ting be better than me?"

Lu Shijin: "What happened to Xiang Ting? Isn't he good enough for you?"

Du Jiang's glasses were crooked on his face, and he stared at Xiang Ting with gloomy and crazy eyes behind the lenses, "Be good to us? Didn't you tell us how your abilities evolved? Didn't you just want to be with the few of us?" Being the boss of Li, let us always obey your command and obey your orders? You can go wherever you say, and do whatever you want. How cool is it to be the boss? Xiang Ting, if you are so great , so selfless, why do you hide your evolution method? You are also selfish, so how can you be better than me? It’s just a class of people hahaha!”

Xiang Ting smiled bleakly. Although he had already looked away from his teammates, his heart still felt like being stabbed by a knife, and it hurt dullly, "So, that's how you look at me."

"It's just judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart, so ignore him." Lu Shijin rolled his eyes, too lazy to listen to Du Jiang's crazy words, and then asked, "After you left us, did you go to Mr. Gu's base?" ?”

Du Jiang: "Yes."

Lu Shijin: "Is what you said about Mr. Gu's actions true?"

Du Jiang: "Yes."

Lu Shijin: "Are you sent by him to follow us?"

Du Jiang: "Yes."

Lu Shijin: "Why did you tell us the truth about the base, and why did you lie to us to go back?"

Du Jiang: "Mr. Gu knew about my relationship with you, so he sent me to guide you back. This is the task he gave me. As for why he did this, I don't know. I thought I would tell you the truth. Ting will go back to rescue Tang Qin and Su Ling. After all, you like to be the leader of the team. How could you let your teammates be in danger and not rescue them? But now it seems that I misjudged you, you just pretended to be righteous , In fact, he is also a selfish person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

"A dog can't spit out ivory, so you better shut up." Lu Shijin finished asking what he wanted to ask, and was about to stuff the rag back into Du Jiang's mouth when he suddenly remembered something, picked up the dagger and patted Du Jiang's face again. face, "Hey, open up your portable space."

Du Jiang: "What do you want to do?"

"What are you doing?" Lu Shijin sneered, pointed a knife at Du Jiang's eyes, "You don't have to return the things you took from others? Stop talking nonsense and open them quickly, or I'll goug your eyes!"

Du Jiang looked at the tip of the knife that was just a lens away from his eyeballs, and shivered with a chill. He felt that Lu Shijin should do what he said, so he obediently opened his portable space.

Lu Shijin asked Xiang Ting to go in and take out a lot of Du Jiang's hidden treasures. When Fat Orange saw that the cans, rice, and noodles he had hoarded were found again, he happily picked them up in a pile of cans. Rolling away, meowing excitedly.

Lu Shijin took another look into his portable space, and actually took out a small hard bag for him.

When Du Jiang saw that Lu Shijin came out with the bag, his face changed drastically, and he shouted as if he was facing an enemy: "Give it back to me! It's mine!"

Lu Shijin weighed the small bag in his hand, and said disapprovingly, "What's yours? You said it's yours, so it's yours? Is your name written on it? Who knows if you stole it again, I declare it as stolen goods, Confiscated, now mine."

Is this man unreasonable? What a robber!

Du Jiang was so angry that his seven orifices were smoking, and he didn't care about the pain of the rope strangling his body. He struggled and shouted: "Give it back to me! Give it back to me!"

Lu Shijin was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he just served him with a rag, and waited until his ears were quiet before opening the small bag.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the bag, a faint blue light emitted from the inside of the bag. Lu Shijin took a closer look, good guy, the bag is full of crystal nuclei. According to preliminary estimates, there must be about a hundred of them, which is enough for a first-order superhuman to directly It's been promoted to the third rank.

"Fuck, I got rich."

Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting looked at each other, both surprised, where did Du Jiang get so many crystal nuclei? Why doesn't he use it himself

But after thinking about it for a while, it becomes clear that whose dog Du Jiang is now, it is naturally who gave him the crystal nucleus.

As for why he doesn't use it, it may be because of his broken ability, which is of no use if used, but there is more space for things to be placed.

Lu Shijin was overjoyed. In the apocalypse, crystal nuclei are harder goods than gold. They are extremely precious. Du Jiang would never have dreamed that the crystal nuclei he had hoarded for so long would be cheaper than Lu Shijin, right

But Du Jiang was gagged and couldn't speak, so he could only protest Lu Shijin's taking his baby anxiously.

Of course, Lu Shijin ignored his protest. While making faces at Du Jiang to anger him, he triumphantly put the crystal nucleus into his pocket, and then signaled Xiang Ting to go away and talk to him.

Lu Shijin restrained his smile, and asked solemnly: "The surname Gu asked Du Jiang to trick us back, what purpose do you think he has?"

Xiang Ting: "I can't guess, we met by chance, I can't think of why he would go to such lengths to deal with the outside world."

Lu Shijin thought for a while, thought of a certain possibility, looked at him with great concern, and said, "Tell me, when he used the mind reading technique on you, would he already know the secret between you and me?"

"You mean?" Xiang Ting's expression tensed immediately, "He knew about that?!"

Lu Shijin nodded heavily, "From the way he looked at me, it's very possible."

Xiang Ting frowned and thought, "But why didn't he do anything when we were in his territory? Why didn't he let us go?"

"The surname Gu is a good manipulator. There are so many people in his base. If we attack us in front of so many people, it will definitely arouse others' suspicion." Lu Shijin slowly talked about his guess, "But when Du After Jiang told us the truth, it would be different if we went back to him to settle accounts and save people. At that time, he would be able to deal with us openly without arousing suspicion from other people in the base. Of course, this is just my guess. As for What the surname Gu wants to do, you have to ask yourself."

"Ask him?" Xiang Ting lowered his voice, "You mean, we're going back?"

"Of course," Lu Shijin said calmly, "Gu's surname has already set his sights on us, and we already know his secret. He will never let us go. If this person is not eliminated, it will be a disaster in the future sooner or later." , Instead of waiting for him to come to the door, why don't we take the initiative to catch him by surprise."

Xiang Ting already regards Lu Shijin as a person who can rely on life and death. As long as it is what Lu Shijin wants to do, he is unconditionally willing to accompany him, so he asked without hesitation: "What plan do you have?"

Lu Shijin lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then raised his head and waved to Fat Ju who was crazily scratching Du Jiang for revenge not far away: "Brother Dong, come here!"

Hearing Lu Shijin's call, Fat Ju stopped his paws, grinned at Du Jiang as a warning, and then ran over cheerfully on four short legs.

"What are you doing meow?"

"Brother Dong, there is a difficult task for you now, do you dare to take it?" Lu Shijin asked with a smile.

Fat Ju replied without thinking: "I dare not."

This decisive answer was exactly as Lu Shijin guessed. If he dared, Lu Shijin would doubt whether he was Lin Dong.

"If you pick it up, I'll reward you with a bag of dried fish, no, no, it's a bag of this." Lu Shijin took out the bag containing the crystal nucleus and shook it in front of Fat Ju, "A bag full of crystal nucleus Oh, it can help you raise your ability to the third level, do you want it?"

Fat Orange's cat eyes stared at the bag in Lu Shijin's hand, a little moved, "What mission are you talking about first, is it life-threatening?"

"It's definitely a little bit dangerous," Lu Shijin flattered, "But I believe that with your intelligence and intelligence, Brother Dong, it's definitely not a problem."

Fat Ju was flattered by the praise, raised the cat's head high, raised the cat's tail, and said triumphantly: "That's right, well, stop flattering meow, just say what you want me to do meow."

Lu Shijin glanced at Du Jiang, who was as wilted as an eggplant beaten by frost, and said, "Du Jiang must not let him go back. In order not to startle the snake and arouse the suspicion of the subordinates surnamed Gu, someone needs to replace him." Du Jiang go back."

Fat Ju narrowed his cat's eyes, "What do you mean meow."

Lu Shijin shook the bag, "After you absorb the energy in the crystal nucleus of this bag, your powers will rise to the third level, and you will be able to change into the appearance of other people, so you can pretend to be Du Jiang and go over there Undercover, let us know if there is any trouble."

Fat Ju (meow shocked.jpg): "... the difficulty of this question is beyond the standard, meow, I have never done this kind of thing before, meow, what if I am found out, meow?"

"It's impossible to be discovered. Du Jiang has only been there for a long time, and he must not be familiar with the people inside, and no one will recognize you." Lu Shijin said in a persuasive way, "Besides, even if you are discovered, your supernatural powers are also very good. You can use it to escape, you can either turn into a mouse to burrow into the ground, or turn into a sparrow to fly away, what can those people do with you?"

Fat Ju tilted the cat's head and thought for a while. What Lu Shijin said made sense, and the three of them were already grasshoppers on the same rope. The one surnamed Gu wanted to deal with Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting, that is, he couldn't get along with him.

Although Lin Dong was timid and afraid of death, he still had some sense of loyalty, so Fat Ju raised his fleshy cat paws and patted his chest, "Okay, let me try it."

Lu Shijin happily stuffed the bag containing the crystal nucleus to Fat Ju, "It's almost dawn, you should quickly absorb the energy in the crystal nucleus, and then go back in the form of Du Jiang."

Fat Ju bit the crystal nucleus bag and dragged it aside to absorb the energy. Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting returned to the tree where Du Jiang was tied.

Xiang Ting glanced at Du Jiang's distorted face with anger, and asked, "Lin Dong has become Du Jiang, so what should we do with the real Du Jiang?"

"How to deal with it? Of course it is to destroy the corpse." Lu Shijin laughed twice, swung the dagger in his hand, and pointed it at Du Jiang's chest, "White knives go in and red knives come out, or just kill and dig someone up." Bury it."

Du Jiang was so frightened that he was so frightened that he was really afraid that Lu Shijin would stab him with a knife. In fear, he rolled his eyes and passed out.

Lu Shijin shrugged his shoulders: "It's boring, I can't stand being scared at all."

Xiang Ting asked him seriously: "Do you really want to kill him?"

Lu Shijin looked at him with a smile, "Can you do it?"

Xiang Ting was silent. Although Du Jiang was sorry for him, he really couldn't do it if he wanted to kill someone.

"I know you are soft-hearted, so I just want to scare him," Lu Shijin threw away the dagger, and said, "Tie him up and throw him in the trunk, take him away, and then throw him away in a safe place, let him fend for himself go."

Xiang Ting raised his lips and laughed, his cold eyes softened unconsciously when he looked at Lu Shijin.

Lu Shijin's method of dealing with Du Jiang just now can be said to be ruthless, cold-blooded and iron-handed, but he doesn't feel disgusted at all, but finds it extremely interesting and cute.

This made Xiang Ting see that Lu Shijin has another side, which is different from his weak physique. In fact, his heart is very strong, stronger and more thorough than anyone else.

Xiang Ting suddenly understood one thing, Lu Shijin actually doesn't need anyone's protection, what he needs is someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, who can fight hand in hand with him.

And he wants to be that person.

No matter how long the night is, it will eventually pass. As long as the universe does not explode, the sun will rise as usual every day.

After Lin Dong absorbed the energy of a bag of crystal nuclei, his ability was successfully upgraded to the third level. He tried to change according to Du Jiang's appearance, and successfully turned into an identical Du Jiang. From Du Jiang's mouth, he asked the tracking After finding out the location of the victim, Lin Dong went undercover.

After Lin Dong left, Lu Shijin and Xiang Ting put away the tent, moved the supplies back to the van, and prepared to set off.

Xiang Ting sat in the driver's seat, and when he started the car, he suddenly felt a little dazed, "Where are we going and what are we going to do next?"

Lu Shijin crossed his arms and said as a matter of course: "Of course it is to do the most, most, and most important thing right now!"

Xiang Ting was dazed by those "most", "What?"

Lu Shijin tilted his head and looked at him deeply meaningfully, "Upgrade the ability! Save the world!"
