Chapter 262 Gradual Progress II
And the people you care about will also have people and things they care about. Layer upon layer, interconnected, endless."
"Yes... you're right." Li Cheng颐 said, "Very reasonable."
"But why do you think we must hand over the technology to you, and not to others?"
"Because, if you give it to me, you can minimize the harm from other forces." Zhu Rui smiled.
"Heh, harm? Mr. Zhu really thinks that our Corner World people's friends, relatives, and the important people around us, are really our weaknesses?" Li Cheng颐 asked.
As soon as this sentence came out.
A hint of astonishment appeared on Zhu Rui's face.
"You don't think that if you can make trouble in Sutan, you can make the same commotion in Yi Country, right?"
"Has Mr. Zhu ever considered that if someone can disregard the rules and move against the people around us, then why should we care about the rules?" Li Cheng颐 retorted.
"Thank you." Zhu Rui颐 said, thanking me for the reminder.
"This guy... is he very troublesome?" Zhu Rui颐 got up and grabbed you, heavily helping you up.
"Yeah, back to the hotel near Zhaoshan."
I searched for the figure's shape and clothing from behind, but there were too many similar ones. Still no clues. This made me even more impatient.
"Tired?" Zhou Xing Tong asked softly while driving. Si Ying颐 took the opportunity to lean forward, closed her eyes, and with a roll, embraced Li Cheng颐 together, leaning back.
"Purely targeting consciousness?" Si Ying颐's heart trembled. She wondered if her flower language could block this type of consciousness attack.
A few books were densely arranged on rows of empty bookshelves.
Bit by bit, from the right side, slowly turning. *Pa.*
"Haven't encountered any, but they're all very safe types." Li Cheng颐 replied, "Speaking of which, there are several pots of flowers in my teacher's study. If you have time, you can take a look."
"You don't think that we, a bunch of guys who could die in the Corner World at any time, each have weaknesses, do you?" The gloom on his face seemed to have never appeared, turning into a cold, mocking smile.
"Brother, listen to you! I'll count one, seven, eight, and you'll move forward with me, close your eyes! Okay?" Li Cheng颐's voice was a little relaxed, cautious.
So....
"Teacher is teacher. I wasn't allowed to say. Brother, you'll know in the future," Li Cheng颐 smiled.
The man still had his back to me, unmoving. *Whoosh...*
Her movements were very fast, very fast.
"Sigh... luckily I dodged in time, or it would have been a big trouble."
Zhu Rui颐 replied.
Zhu Rui颐 stretched out his hand, and strands of Guanghui (radiant) force field silently spread around him, centered on him.
A woman with golden hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a white sleeveless women's vest, and a white pleated long skirt on her lower body, with mysterious silver symbols vaguely hanging on the skirt like decorations.
But the force field had no effect.
Suddenly, a large hand gently grabbed my wrist from behind.
The expression on Li Cheng's face slowly subsided, and his gaze was also fixed on me, his momentum not falling, but he didn't respond anymore.
The stimulation brought by the hot water allowed my spirit to recover quickly.
Since I can't find any clues... then I'll try... if the Corner World is damaged enough, it might be completely collapsed.
Zhu Rui颐 cupped water in his hands and wiped his face several times in a row.
Pulling a towel to wipe his face, he sighed softly. He hadn't found any clues from the ink in the comic strips or other drawing steps.
The conversation broke up unhappily.
"Going straight back now?" Zhou Xing Tong asked. "Thanks, I don't smoke."
*Crack.* In the sound of rushing water.
Zhu Rui颐 was stunned, recognizing the tone of the voice.
The person with their back to you usually turns around the eighth time they appear. And those who have experienced the Corner World for the eighth time have almost all disappeared.
"Back view."
Li Cheng finally didn't say anything. It was just that when he left, he lacked the composure of having everything under control, and more of it was anger.
"There are no books to read in the reading room, but the key isn't this! It's that this is Teacher's domain, and the concealment is much, much stronger than mine!"
"Then would you like to try?" Li Cheng颐 looked directly at the other party, without blinking.
"Really?"
Zhu Rui颐 looked towards the cloakroom again, and sure enough, the white-skirted woman had disappeared.
Walking to the cloakroom, he opened the door. Zhu Rui颐's movements stopped again. "Brother, don't."
Looking around, it was only at this moment that I realized that I had been pulled into the small Corner World in Li Cheng颐's tightly gripped hand.
Two long tables were placed close to the floor-to-ceiling windows, and outside the windows was a hazy gray fog, making it impossible to see anything clearly.
Zhu Rui颐 recalled the information sent by Xiao Zong.
"Want one?" Iselin handed over a cigarette. "Isn't this like possessing a treasure that invites trouble?" Zhu Rui颐 said. Back at the hotel, he continued to flip through the books until he couldn't hold on any longer before falling asleep.
"You're welcome."
"Actually, wouldn't it be enough to act soft and delay some time? There's no need to offend the Zhu family." Iselin said kindly. "The Zhu family is one of the great noble families in Chaoyu, with a lot of influence in the surrounding provinces."
The two fell heavily to the floor of the master bedroom, rolled twice, and then quickly got up.
"A bit."
"How did you know? Is there no way to resist it?" Zhu Rui颐 frowned.
Li Cheng颐 grabbed my hand, not crawling towards the bottom of the bed, but turning towards the door leading out of the room.
"Pretty much. Right now, there are not many mature and complete systems in several self-circulating cities. As long as his system is taken over, slightly modified, and supplemented, it can be used and released for commercial operation. Then, the huge amount of arms deals, the profits of arms, are enough to make any family or force jealous. Their system, although not that exaggerated yet, already has that potential." Si Ying Qing explained.
The white-skirted woman seemed to be touched by something and began to turn towards me.
"Seven."
Sitting in the car, I sighed for a long time. She pushed the door open and got out.
"Of course. Let's help you solve the Back View first." Li Cheng颐's expression became solemn.
*Pa.* I felt suspended.
In the somewhat dark cloakroom, a spacious small space, a white-haired woman in a white dress was standing quietly.
I suddenly understood that the psychological pressure faced by those Corner World people who persisted to the end became greater and greater in the later stages.
"Because this guy is in the Bai Hai (White Sea), it's not a special Corner World. Many Bai Hai races have encountered it." Li Cheng颐 replied with a solemn expression. "In Bai Hai, it has a common name."
"Not talking about those things. Brother, you must be careful. The woman you just encountered is not a real person, but a kind of special Corner World. Once you see her face, she will ignite all of your spirit in an instant."
"Li Cheng颐!?"
The two's footsteps began to advance slowly.
Suddenly, Li Cheng颐 used force and pulled me forward.
And when Zhu Rui颐 got up to leave, he was stopped by Iselin.
"Is our new system that attractive?" Zhu Rui颐 asked in surprise.
He turned his head to look at Li Cheng颐 again.
"Teacher?" Zhu Rui颐 asked doubtfully. "When did you....?"
I want to try if I can completely solve this guy with the Blade of Destiny.
At this time, the little girl had already changed a lot from before.
"So, we definitely won't be separated by a large Corner World like last time again!"
After a long time, Li Cheng颐 seemed to have grown up.
"So... who exactly is the teacher you're talking about?" Zhu Rui颐 looked around the reading room, feeling somewhat surprised, but more of it was just disbelief.
This transfer Corner World, unique to Si Yingqing, can be embedded in any bedroom without restrictions.
I slowly raised the golden sword.
"Back View..." Zhu Rui颐 carefully chewed on these two words, as if something was hidden inside.
One thing after another piled up, making it impossible for me to separate myself.
"Of course, there is a way, but it's very troublesome. We'll talk about it later. Brother, come with me first!"
Now, she was already seventeen or eighteen years old, and her height was almost the same as an adult.
"So, is there any way to escape from Back View?" *Pfft!!*
"Is that so..." Zhu Rui颐 didn't doubt that Li Cheng颐 would harm me. But regarding this teacher, I was still wary.
"-..."
A golden sword automatically appeared in Zhu Rui颐's hand, and at the same time, a circle of golden flames faintly ignited around the ground.
Instead, it was a square, empty library.
"Very troublesome." Si Yingqing raised her face and said seriously. "I've been studying the White Codex with the teacher, and I only sensed that a trace of the arrangement I left on Brother's body was in danger, so I immediately interrupted and rushed back!"
Very quickly, another two days passed.
Although Li Cheng颐 such a wolf was also within my previous expectations, I still felt very uncomfortable when facing it.
I also didn't find any clues regarding the Corner World clues from the person with their back to me.
"Pretty much." Iselin sighed. "The best way for you to deal with it now is to immediately find a strong enough background to block all the wind and rain from the outside world. Cooperation is fine, affiliation is fine, buying and selling are fine, you have to do it as soon as possible.
There was even less clue on how to escape.
"Actually, solving the Back View isn't difficult, but if you have to confront it head-on, there will be a lot of damage."
"By the way, Li Cheng颐, since you've been to so many Corner Worlds, have you ever encountered any types with a lot of flowers?"
"Brother, look! This is the teacher's reading room! I begged him for a long time before he agreed to let you in!" Li Cheng颐 pulled Zhu Rui頤 into the door, a hateful little face with a faint smile.
Eighth time...
"Back View cannot be touched, because it doesn't have a physical body at all. The Back View seen by each individual is also different. It is a purely consciousness-targeting attack," Li Cheng颐 explained. "The moment you see the Back View turn around, it can make a greater life individual collapse and disappear in an instant."
Waiting for the sound from behind.
With increased vigilance, although I didn't think that Back View could completely kill me in an instant, I still seriously thanked Li Cheng颐 for her help.
"...I understand! Okay!" Zhu Rui颐 responded. I watched the white-skirted woman slowly turn around.
The two stood side by side on the eaves where raindrops were falling.
Looking at the night scene flying by outside the car window, Si Ying颐 inexplicably felt a sense of lightness in her heart.
The Hall of Depravity, the Gong Fa (cultivation technique) Flower Language, the coercion from people like Si Ying, and the white-skirted woman who was suspected to be from the Corner World.
Li Cheng颐 gently hugged Si Ying颐's waist from behind, her pupils turned into a piece of darkness, and wisps of white smoke were constantly gushing out.
"Even if such people riot, what can they do?" Zhu Rui smiled.
"Three!!"
Outside the door, it was no longer a dark corridor and stairwell.
Holding a white short staff the length of a forearm in her hand, and lifting the corner of her skirt with the other, she was slowly climbing up from the ground.
