Chapter 557 The Past
Chapter 557 The Past
"Virtus, the most urgent task is to persuade Mr. Nodus to come back. Chongyuan is full of vicious enemies. They have no power to protect themselves and may be in danger at any time." Bai'e said in a deep voice.
He paused, then turned his gaze to Xing and Jiang Fan: "My two friends, I have an unwelcome request. You two have come all the way here, so you must be very skilled. Could you please go and find Mr. Nodus?"
"Ahem!" Jiang Fan covered his mouth and coughed a few times, his face full of weakness, "I am not good at fighting, and I have been weak and sick since I was a child. I am powerless to bring back Mr. Nodus..."
"Yeah, he has been weak since he was young, so people nicknamed him Mr. Empty." Xing joined in the conversation.
Although she didn't understand Jiang Fan's intention, she was cheering in her heart, thinking that this guy had finally done something human...
Think about the space station, Beloberg, Luofu Fairy Boat, Pinoconi...
They always charge in the front, working like mules, and never complaining. If someone points east, they won’t go west; if someone points south, they won’t go north…
And as soon as someone asked them to do so, they would run around like the protagonist of a game who had accepted a mission from an NPC. Every time she was so tired that she was almost miserable. The only thing she lacked was to cosplay as Sha Monk with the luggage on her shoulders.
Therefore, long before she set out to jump to Omphalos, she had already silently set a goal for herself in her heart that she would not be treated like a mule and run around here and there in Omphalos.
It was just that she hadn't told Jiang Fan about her feelings. Now he was in tune with her and politely rejected Bai E's "mission request", which made her very happy. She said that Jiang Fan, the old thief, understood her! He understood me...
In fact, Jiang Fan didn't share the same thoughts with Xing. If this kind of thing happened to Xing and Sanyue, he would still be willing for young people to go out more, under the pretext of experiencing training.
But he was already an old man, and there was no reason for him to run around doing helpful work, and of course he didn't need to exercise, so when faced with Bai'er's "unwelcome request", he declined on the grounds of illness.
Bai E didn't expect that these two visitors from outer space didn't play by the rules, and he didn't expect that these two people would lie without thinking...
A young girl is traveling far away in the outer space with a weak and frail man. If they are not strong enough in fighting, they will be robbed and become penniless at best, or die at worst.
That's why he concluded that these two people must have armed forces, otherwise they wouldn't have the courage to come from outer space, and they didn't bring any guards with them, nor did they resist his appearance and going to Ohma.
He thought that he was definitely not the kind of person who looked kind and could easily win the favor and trust of these two guests.
Therefore, the less uneasiness and vigilance they showed about heading to Ohma, the more it showed that they were fearless. Either they were murderous, or they were very strong.
Bai E was silent for a while: "I know you two have a lot of questions in your mind, so Teacher Tibao will go with you, answer all your questions, and take care of you at the same time."
Xing Shenyou was waiting for Jiang Fan to decline again, but he didn't expect Jiang Fan to poke him with his arm. "But then again, my friend likes to help others the most. I believe she is willing to help with such a small matter."
Jiang Fan pronounced the last few words very heavily, and they floated into Xing's ears like a few heavy weights.
Xing was silent for a few seconds, then bared his teeth and let out a mechanical laugh, "Hahahahahahahahaha, that's right, I, the Galaxy Batman, travel the world relying on my warm heart and chivalry. I'll definitely help you..."
"You two friends are so righteous! I will stay here to protect Virtus and the others, you go and come back quickly." Bai'e exclaimed.
“Hahahahahaha…hahahaha…” Xing had a blank expression on her face.
……
After agreeing with Bai'e and Virtus to act separately, Xing remained expressionless.
Even when she was following behind Tibao, she kept her expression unchanged and said nothing, letting the "little girl" chatter in front of her...
Jiang Fan walked in front and chatted with Tibao, while also carefully observing Xing's every move. He couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness like an old father.
As early as when he returned to Beloberg to attend the celebration, he heard Hook say in secret, "I'd rather mess with Sister Xier than Xing. Sister Xier even went to school, and Xing is a pure scoundrel."
At first, he actually did not agree with this statement. He believed that a person's behavior had nothing to do with academic qualifications, and that the level of academic qualifications did not represent everything.
For example, Jingliu, who graduated from Xianzhou Higher Education Institute, still advocates solving problems with fists when encountering problems, and does not look like an intellectual at all.
Another example is Heita. His academic qualifications are extremely high, but when he encounters something that makes him unhappy, he will still fight back hard and not let himself suffer any injustice.
But later he gradually understood this sentence. Although Jingliu and Heita advocated solving problems with fists, they always prioritized the situation, and even if they used fists, they would not do it secretly.
But Xing is different. He doesn't care about anything. He goes up and hits the ball with a bat first. If he can beat the opponent, he will act arrogantly. If he can't beat the opponent, he will hide and look for another opportunity to act arrogantly later...
Although this girl seems to be carefree and innocent, if she is really remembered for thinking of you forever, I'm afraid she will be able to recite all the grievances she has suffered before she is buried...
But fortunately, this girl has always been open-minded and has a memory like a fish. She could be pouting and sulking one second, and then burst into laughter the next.
"My two friends, I guess you have a lot of questions in your mind, right?" Tibao suddenly turned around and stopped beside a broken staircase.
Yes, but not much, Xing muttered silently in his heart.
"As for why we want to chat alone, of course it's because the quieter the place, the better for communication." Tibao said, "So Xiaobai asked you two to come with me, it's definitely not out of any selfish motive."
Xing curled his lips, but remained silent, and shifted his gaze to the broken stairs in front of him, wondering if the old man had jumped down from here, otherwise he would have no reason to lead them here.
"The road ahead is blocked, we can't jump..." Xing kindly reminded.
"Hey, judging from your reaction, you really weren't lying. You really are newcomers." Tibao said softly, "Then don't blink next—"
“You have an independent mechanism to jump… Ouch?! Oh my god!!”
Xing was unable to hold back her complaints, because she saw with her own eyes that as Tibao chanted a spell, the broken part in front of her miraculously recovered...
But rather than saying it was a restoration, it was more like some kind of force had distorted the scene in front of me, twisting it back to the way it was in the past...
