Chapter 720: Difficult to Distinguish (I)
The reincarnations finally gathered together and were divided into three groups. Gu Panpan, Mu Feier and Ling Suqing formed a group and stood on Meng Xiang's left side, while Fang Ru, Han Fan and others stood on the right side. Meng Xiang stood in the middle, separating them.
Meng Xiang looked left and right, at a loss for a moment. No matter how he looked, his companions seemed normal people.
"First of all, Fei'er, Panpan, tell me about your past respectively." Meng Xiang said helplessly. Now he could only try to test their memories to see if he could find out what happened.
"Hmph, just tell me. Who's afraid of who?" Gu Panpan told her experiences in detail, including her and Meng Xiang's adventure on the "Silver Sand Planet" in "Starship Troopers". She even blurted out the things about the righteous gods. It was too late for Meng Xiang to stop her.
"The true God? What is the true God?" Fang Shuren asked doubtfully.
"Don't talk too much." Fang Ru rolled his eyes at Fang Shuren. Fang Shuren trembled all over, lowered his head, and did not dare to ask any questions.
Then, Mu Fei'er slowly told her experiences since entering the reincarnation world, and even through the mind connection, she told him about how she and Meng Xiang almost lost themselves in the deep dream and how they had skin-to-skin contact. Her face was red, and she looked shy. She lowered her head and played with the corner of her clothes. Her subtle expression was exactly the same as before.
Meng Xiang then asked Fang Ru and others to talk about their past experiences, but the result was still difficult to distinguish.
"Fang Ru, do you think there is any way to prove that you have not been assimilated by the monster?" Meng Xiang had no choice but to ask Fang Ru for help.
"According to the original plot, extracting blood cells can distinguish between the monster and normal people. But we don't have a microscope, so we can only use your body as a test subject." Fang Ru took out a sharp military knife from the space bag and said, "Each of us will cut our wrists and pour blood on your hands. Once the blood assimilates your skin, it proves that the person has been assimilated by the monster."
"Good idea." Meng Xiang patted his head and said, "Although it is dangerous, it is still the best way to distinguish. Then, each of you will bleed on my hand."
"Isn't this too dangerous? Brother Meng, what if the strange blood cells invade your body?" Mu Fei'er was very worried, her eyes were full of tears.
"It's okay." Meng Xiang smiled and said, "If there is any movement, I will eliminate the invading cells as quickly as possible. At most, I will lose a layer of skin."
"That's right. Meng Xiang can conduct this experiment because he has this method. However," Fang Ru said with a serious expression, "I mentioned to you before through the telepathic communication that the monster stopped attacking us in recent days. It was not until Mu Fei'er and the other three were assimilated by the monster that the monster launched a large-scale attack on us. Obviously, the monster has a high degree of intelligence. It stopped attacking us only to find a chance to assimilate us reincarnators one by one. Once it fails, it will immediately attack in groups. Therefore, if they deliberately control blood cells, then the next test may still not be able to identify which group of people has been assimilated by the monster."
"Let's try it first." Meng Xiang glanced at Han Fan and said, "Han Fan, you are the captain, you go first."
"Okay." Han Fan was not polite. He picked up the saber and cut a deep cut on his left arm. As the blood flowed out and dripped onto Meng Xiang's hand, Meng Xiang's left hand was immediately stained red.
After a long time, Meng Xiang didn't feel any invasion of blood cells. Then, Zhuo Luo, Fang Ru and others also dripped blood. Only Fang Shuren was afraid of pain and refused to do so. Han Fan had to hold him down and force him to bleed.
There was nothing wrong with the blood of Fang Ru's group of companions. Meng Xiang couldn't help but worry. He turned to look at Mu Fei'er and whispered, "Fei'er, it's your turn."
"Hmph, let me go first." Gu Panpan used Qigong to draw the saber in mid-air and cut her left arm. Blood gushed out. "Brother Xiang, come quickly. A lot of blood is flowing." She shouted anxiously.
"Who told you to be so anxious?" Meng Xiang immediately stretched out his left hand. Under the shower of blood, he could only feel the boiling blood pouring on his hand, which was warm and very comfortable.
"Could it be that Fang Ru was right? Can the strange shape even inhibit the assimilation of blood cells?" Meng Xiang thought to himself.
As a result, Mu Fei'er and Ling Suqing tried one by one, but still couldn't tell the difference.
This stumped Meng Xiang.
"It's late at night, let's take a rest for a night. However, we have to be well prepared this night. In addition to dealing with the ambush of the monster, we also have to be wary of..." Fang Ru glanced at Gu Panpan and the other three, and didn't say anything else.
"Brother Xiang, don't get close to those people. They are indeed weird-looking and they will take your life." Gu Panpan glared at Fang Ru.
"Okay, let's take a rest tonight. Each of your groups will have one person stand guard. Tell me immediately if there is any movement." Meng Xiang was indeed tired after a day of running around. He still had 8 days to survive, so he had to conserve his strength. So he decided to take a rest.
Therefore, the two groups were separated by 50 meters and each created a resting place.
Gu Panpan seemed to want to vent her anger, and she used the Great Sun Qiankun Sword Technique to cut a large iceberg into the shape of a house, and then condensed into a demon god and carried the ice house back. Her magical skill made Ling Suqing dumbfounded, and also made Meng Xiang look at Gu Panpan differently.
Gu Panpan's strength is growing day by day, and her flaws are getting fewer and fewer. As long as she can suppress her arrogant character a little, her strength will be enough to be compared with the potential lock level 3 strongmen in the reincarnation world.
Fang Ru's group was much gentler in comparison. Han Fan used his magic projection to his full potential, and in a blink of an eye, a realistic-looking house was projected, with even a mattress and quilt inside.
Meng Xiang was stunned. No matter how he compared them, his companions were all normal people and could not possibly be freaks.
Could it be a misunderstanding? Meng Xiang thought it was unlikely. After all, the two groups' statements did not match each other, which proved that one of the groups was lying.
No matter what, as long as they survived the next 8 days, everyone would return safely. Moreover, perhaps because the monster assimilated its companions, the other monsters seemed to have restrained themselves and no longer attacked them, which saved Meng Xiang a lot of trouble.
Meng Xiang didn't dare to sleep soundly. He leaned against the edge of the iceberg, about 50 meters away from his companions in Group 2. For a close combat warrior like Meng Xiang, this distance could be reached in a breath. If any of his companions had any accident, he could provide support immediately.
Meng Xiang closed his eyes and rested. The light beads embedded in the ice illuminated the surrounding area. If there was any movement, it would definitely not escape the eyes of the reincarnationist.
It was late at night and the companions were all asleep, except for the reincarnation who was standing guard.
The people standing guard were Ling Suqing and Zhuo Luo.
In the dim light, Meng Xiang felt that the air flow was obstructed. He opened his eyes hastily, only to see Ling Suqing walking towards him tremblingly, her face pale and full of shock.
This was the first time Meng Xiang saw Ling Suqing so panicked since she entered the reincarnation world. He immediately looked at the two groups of companions, only to see Mu Feier and Gu Panpan sleeping soundly in the ice house, with nothing unusual. On the other side, Zhuo Luo had his back to him and the house in front of him, ignoring his side.
"Meng... Brother Meng, save me." Ling Suqing said in fear, but her voice was very soft, as soft as a mosquito. Meng Xiang was almost face to face with her, so he could barely hear her clearly.
Meng Xiang felt something was wrong and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
"Fang Ru's group did not lie. In fact, the people who were assimilated were Mu Fei'er and Gu Panpan." Ling Suqing looked back in horror and saw that Gu Panpan and Mu Fei'er did not move. With a "嘤" sound, they fell into Meng Xiang's arms.
"Why do you say that?" Meng Xiang gently patted Ling Suqing's back, caressing her, touching her skin, secretly sensing whether his skin had been assimilated. Fortunately, her cold and smooth skin showed no signs of invasion.
"This..." Ling Suqing took out a yellow crystal from her pocket.
"Dragon Crystal? Did Fang Ru give it to you?" Meng Xiang asked immediately.
"That's right." Ling Suqing looked back again and saw that Gu Panpan and Mu Fei'er had not woken up yet. She suddenly tore off her shirt, revealing her fair skin and big breasts.
Ling Suqing has big breasts, which are plump and attractive, but this is not what attracts Meng Xiang. Instead, it is the large scar on the upper right side of her breast.
This scar was formed when a whole piece of skin and flesh was peeled off and then healed.
"I was once assimilated by a monster, and Jiejuan saved me. Later, Fang Ru gave me dragon crystal and made me a marginal person. He said, if you come back and can't tell who of us was assimilated, you'll have to rely on me to tell you the truth." Ling Suqingyi whispered in Meng Xiang's ear, with a fragrant smell.
"So that's how it is. I understand. After you pretended to be assimilated, it was Jiejuan who saved you, right?" Meng Xiang asked softly. As a newcomer, Ling Suqing was given such a mission, which really made her feel wronged.
"That's right." Ling Suqing even cried softly in Meng Xiang's arms.
