Chapter 278 Thunder Explosion
The reason is that simple.
Unfortunately, apart from Gong Shangjiao's deceased family members, and him and Zhang Xueming, the two people who have extraordinary five senses and a little bit of mysophobia, probably only Gong Yuanzheng would believe it.
Gong Shangjiao couldn't help but let out a comfortable smile: "That's right. It's ridiculous that the person who designed this plot doesn't understand me at all. He insisted on linking chicken and fish eyes with human eyes. It's far-fetched and incomprehensible."
Point to end.
He was not someone without a front, who would talk about dead people, blood and other topics without restraint. When he thought of the extra memory that someone said these things at the dinner table, he felt nauseous.
What decent girl would say this after preparing a table full of meat dishes? Isn't this intended to make people lose their appetite?
Zhang Xueming understood what Bai Shangjiao meant, but pretended not to understand and smiled mischievously: "Why, when someone dared to say that you are arrogant in front of me, your expression looked like a cooked chicken head?"
Huh? Gong Shangjiao reacted and glared: "Stop talking nonsense! How are they similar!?"
Gong Yuanzheng thought about it and it was indeed true, especially when viewed from the side, with the eyelids half-blocked and the eyeballs slanted downwards, they looked especially similar.
He tried hard to hold back his laughter and didn't even dare to raise his head.
Zhang Xueming smiled wickedly at Gong Shangjiao openly: "Whether they look alike or not, you'll know when you get a chance to compare them in front of a mirror."
This made Gong Shangjiao grab a handful of milk-flavored hard rice cakes from the snack box and throw them at her. He pulled it hard and it hurt her, so she couldn't help but frown and let out a hiss.
She rolled up her sleeves and took it easily, then raised her eyebrows at him: "Brother is really amazing, your ability to endure pain is first-rate."
Gong Shangjiao glanced at her coldly, and then he brought out the words he had asked Shangguan Qian in his memory and asked her, "What if you can't bear it? Will it stop hurting if you say it out loud?"
Gong Yuanzheng had no memory of this, but he had a hunch that something was wrong, so he interrupted, "But when I was a kid, didn't my brother tell me to speak out when it hurt?"
Gong Shangjiao choked and said angrily, "How can the world of children be the same as the world of adults? In the martial arts world, happiness and prestige can be shared, but pain and secrets must be hidden tightly, just like a wounded beast will not show its wounds, but will only find a dark cave to lick its wounds alone, waiting to recover, or die."
Gong Yuanzheng finally realized what was wrong and said bluntly, "Brother, are you reciting your lines?" He then looked at him suspiciously, "Could you be contaminated?"
Gong Shangjiao was furious. He saw Zhang Xueming covering his mouth with a handkerchief, spitting blood and laughing until his shoulders were shaking. He retorted angrily, "Who is polluted? I just think there is some truth in what he said. I want to hear your opinions."
"Nonsense." Gong Yuanzheng came to spoil the fun again, "I'm afraid that my brother has resonated with this memory. I want to see if Zhao Zhao has a different opinion. Can he help you break that resonance?"
He added, "Just like the chicken and fish thing, before Zhao Zhao said it, did you think Shangguan Qian was right?"
Gong Shangjiao closed his eyes tightly, gritted his teeth and said nothing. Oh, I'm so angry! The little cotton-padded jacket is leaking, I can't have this brother anymore!
As soon as Gong Yuanzheng saw his reaction, he knew he was right.
Instead of saying what's on your mind, you have to beat around the bush and play tricks.
He was also angry. He turned his face away, pursed his lips, and angrily poured mouthwash for Zhang Xueming.
Zhang Xueming rinsed his mouth and smiled, "Okay, don't be angry, brother. Ayuan is just worried about you. This is not a place where the strong prey on the weak. There are no outsiders who would take advantage of the situation. There are only brothers and sisters who care about you. Brother has told me and Ayuan about the palace secret of the Infinite Flowing Fire. Is there any pain or secret that needs to be hidden from us?"
Gong Shangjiao felt much more relieved, but he didn't show it on his face. He glanced at Gong Yuanzheng, who looked unhappy, but still insisted on getting an answer: "Zhao Zhao, do you think that line makes sense?"
"It doesn't make sense to me." Zhang Xueming said honestly, "No matter where I am, the only people who can share my happiness, pain and secrets with me are my recognized family members. I am not afraid to show my wounds in front of my family. I believe that they will not think that I am weak because of this. Instead, they will be more happy with my trust."
She looked at Gong Yuanzheng with a slight smile, and Gong Yuanzheng nodded decisively.
Zhang Xueming happily pulled his hand, then stared at Gong Shangjiao with wide eyes, and asked him expectantly: "What do you think, brother?"
Even though he had just been beaten by her, Gong Shangjiao still softened his heart under her sincere gaze and nodded, "You are right, those words are unreasonable."
"That's it." Zhang Xueming said with a smile, "For outsiders, I always treat business as business, and reputation comes first. Nothing else matters."
Gong Shangjiao lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then smiled with relief: "Zhao Zhao is doing very well."
He pushed the snack box to the opposite side, right between Zhang Xueming and Gong Yuanzheng.
Gong Yuanzheng silently took a small biscuit, picked up the kettle and added hot water to Gong Shangjiao's tea bowl, thus turning the page.
Gong Shangjiao asked Zhang Xueming: "What does Zhao Zhao think of the Infinite Flowing Fire?"
Zhang Xueming didn't quite understand what he wanted to ask, so he asked casually, "Watch while sitting, standing, or lying down?"
Gong Yuanzheng burst out laughing. Gong Shangjiao said helplessly, "Stop talking nonsense. I'm asking you, what do you think of this weapon?"
Zhang Xueming was even more confused: "I haven't even seen the real thing, and I don't know how powerful it is. What do you want me to say?"
"I haven't seen it either, but it is said to be extremely powerful. Once used, the entire Old Dust Valley will turn into purgatory... and it will also lead to the destruction of the world."
Zhang Xueming was used to seeing the world being destroyed at every turn in the fairy tale dramas of her previous life. She knew what kind of reaction Gong Shangjiao wanted to see by saying this, and she thought that since she had beaten him up today, it would be ok to comfort him, so she showed a surprised expression: "World-destroying weapon? Hidden in the palace gate?"
Gong Shangjiao was very satisfied with her reaction. That's right, her previous attitude as if she heard something ordinary was really annoying.
Zhang Xueming originally wanted to make him happy, but when she read his face, she was stunned: Gong Shangjiao was not joking, what he said was what he saw in the Palace Secret Book.
Zhang Xueming's brain was working rapidly, and some details that she once thought were unimportant resurfaced and connected together.
The smile gradually disappeared, she suddenly covered her chest and looked at Gong Shangjiao in disbelief: "Brother, don't scare me... Are you serious?"
Gong Shangjiao said puzzledly: "This is what is described in the Palace Secret Book... What's wrong? Zhao Zhao, what's that expression on your face?"
Zhang Xueming wanted to jump up and kick him, not caring whether he was losing his composure or not. "You're still asking me what's wrong? How can you laugh? Tell me yourself, how big would the monster be that needs this kind of world-destroying weapon to suppress? Can I beat it?"
Where is the promised martial arts world? Where is the promised ancient idol romance?
She just thought that the system could absorb that power and she could rest easy. It wouldn't be long before she could clean up Wufeng's gang of little grasshoppers and take Xiaolang home. But suddenly such a big bomb exploded. Was this trying to drive her crazy?
