Night’s Nomenclature Chapter 25: New nightmare
After the chaos, the prisoners slowly stood up, and dozens of mechanical prison guards entered the square with the sound of neat hydraulic transmission, directing the prisoners to clean up everything that had been knocked over here.
In the restaurant, Guo Huchan was sitting cross-legged on the ground not far away, as if the old monk had fallen into trance.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the black rubber bullets on the ground and sighed: "When gods fight, mortals suffer. Those who fight are fine. Those prisoners who didn't fight are really unlucky. Hey, Guo Huchan, aren't there rumors about you outside? Do you always do good deeds out of compassion? What about the people who have been affected by you?"
Guo Huchan said without even raising his eyelids: "You told me in prison that you were hurting innocent people? Everyone here counts, and no one is innocent."
"Hypocrisy," Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at her mouth.
"Also, let me emphasize," Guo Huchan opened his eyes and looked at Lin Xiaoxiao: "I am not a monk, don't use words like compassion to describe me."
After saying that, he closed his eyes again and carefully adjusted his breath.
He seemed uninjured in the battle with Li Shutong just now, but now his internal organs were really uncomfortable, as if they had been burned by a fire.
When everyone saw him meditating quietly, they stopped caring. Lin Xiaoxiao winked at Ye Wan, and suddenly, an invisible force field suddenly opened around them.
Qingchen had seen this ability just now. When black rain fell from the steel sky, all the raindrops falling towards Ye Wan were bounced away by this force field.
Lin Xiaoxiao saw that Qingchen was a little confused, so he explained with a smile: "Don't worry, your voice won't be transmitted."
Li Shutong sat at the dining table, took the big cat into his arms, and then said to Qingchen: "In the morning, I saw Lu Guangyi interrogating those people during the wedding ceremony. Was it you who told me?"
"It's me," Qingchen knew that the other party knew about his relationship with the Qing family, and also knew that Lu Guangyi was taking orders from him, so he didn't hide it.
"Why do we need to interrogate them?" Li Shutong asked.
"I want to see what other forces are competing with me for forbidden objects," Qingchen lied. He needed to find a reasonable reason to explain his behavior.
Li Shutong nodded: "I like your honesty, but I think Lu Guangyi did not abuse the newcomers this time. Is that what you meant?"
"Yes," Qingchen said.
"But I remember that when you first came in, you didn't help the other newcomers," Li Shutong said.
"It's within our capabilities," Qingchen said.
Li Shutong smiled and did not comment on this.
If he cannot protect himself, then Qingchen will quietly watch others die without helping. This is his principle.
His life has never been smooth sailing, so he learned to be selfish early.
This is the attitude life gave him, not his own choice.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly looked towards Guo Huchan, who was not far away...
Qingchen turned his head and saw Guo Huchan still sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, but his long arms were already hanging down by his sides.
I saw the other party using the index and middle fingers of both hands to prop up the entire body and lift it slightly off the ground.
Then the four fingers moved closer to Ye Wan's force field little by little...
This guy obviously found that he couldn't hear everyone's conversation while sitting there, so he wanted to sneak closer.
This made Qingchen dumbfounded. A two-meter-tall, rugged man with totems all over his body was fighting fiercely one moment, but the next moment he was pretending to sit cross-legged and adjust his breath, but in fact he wanted to eavesdrop on others chatting.
The contrast is too great.
As if feeling everyone's gaze, Guo Huchan moved himself back to his original position with four fingers without changing his expression, as if nothing had happened.
This scene made Li Shutong amused: "Okay, let's break up. It's a pity that I couldn't play chess today. I'm going to read a book."
Before leaving, Lin Xiaoxiao squatted in front of Guo Huchan and said with a smile: "If you lose, just stay here. We really don't want to become enemies with Spades. We know that it's not easy for you to suffer in the wilderness, but you also Can you please stop causing trouble for us?"
Guo Huchan raised his eyelids: "I didn't lose to you, why are you so proud?"
Lin Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows: "You think I can't cure you?"
Guo Huchan said calmly: "Try touching one of my hairs."
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the other party's shiny head: "...?"
The rumors were indeed just rumors. This Guo Huchan was completely different from what he had heard!
Qingchen ignored the two men's continued bickering and turned to the window to get some food, then wolfed it down.
He was very poor in the outer world. After traveling back in time, he ate two days of compressed biscuits. There was rice, noodles, and vegetables at home, but there was no meat. He couldn't afford meat.
Although the food here is average, the synthetic meat still tastes like meat.
Qing Chen felt a little emotional in his heart. The prison food in this world was actually better than what he ate in the outer world.
While he was engrossed in eating, he accidentally looked up and suddenly discovered that a quarter of the 210 cameras in Prison No. 18 were silently turned towards him.
It seemed that he had just found a blind spot between the lightning and flint, which attracted someone's attention.
But he didn't know who was behind the surveillance.
After Lin Xiaoxiao finished arguing with Guo Huchan, he stood up and put Qingchen’s dinner plate aside, then took another dinner plate and went to the window to pat it, and said to the robot inside: "The boss told me, I’ll give him real meat in the future, and I’ll give him as much as he wants.”
Qingchen was stunned for a moment: "Why?"
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled mysteriously: "You will soon know that this may not be a good thing."
……
Night~IndoMTL.com~ When Qingchen returned to the cell and was brushing his teeth, he suddenly felt sleepy, and he immediately realized something was wrong.
But this time, he did not fall to the ground and fall asleep like last time. Instead, he calmly rinsed his mouth carefully. After he lay down on the bed in a comfortable position, he slowly closed it. Eye.
The nightmare begins.
In his dream, Qingchen appeared in a desert, with two people sitting on the dunes opposite.
In this nightmare world, the sky is filled with yellow sand and the sun is scorching.
Only a few seconds passed, and Qingchen felt that his lips were dry and cracked.
One of the people on the opposite side begged him: "Qingchen, give us a sip of the water in your backpack, otherwise we will die."
Qing Chen opened the bag on his back and found a bottle of water inside.
He said nothing.
The person opposite couldn't bear it any longer: "We won't drink from you for free, you can set a price yourself."
At this time, a voice suddenly asked in Qingchen's ear: "Facing your fellow travelers who are about to die of thirst, what price would you give?"
Qingchen looked at the person opposite him coldly and said, "I'll let the person next to you watch you die of thirst first, and then let him set his own price."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person opposite turned into Lin Xiaoxiao, and the other person slowly disappeared like a bubble.
Lin Xiaoxiao said speechlessly: "Are you still a human being?"
"I knew this was your nightmare, so naturally I wouldn't have any sympathy," Qingchen found a place to sit down comfortably.
"It's really weird," Lin Xiaoxiao said sitting across from him: "You can actually stay awake and remember after entering the nightmare. Then you should be able to resist the call of the nightmare."
"Yes, yes," Qingchen replied succinctly.
