Origin Chapter 131: Conspiracy
“Wait? We don’t care, but they are still below, will something happen?” Yang Yi said, the “they” in his mouth naturally refers to Huang Hailin and Xiao Qin, possibly including that one Has been chasing his myna.
“You don’t have to worry about this, the ghosts can distinguish between enemy and me, and won’t kill each other.” Wu Zhongyuan said.
Yang Yi sighed. Although he was worried about the safety of Huang Hailin and others, he couldn’t do anything. His supernatural ability could only force the ghosts out of the possessed person, but there was no way to destroy them. The variables that come out are even greater, and no one knows who they will possess next.
“How long does it take for the mechanism to run a cycle?” Wang Xinran asked Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wang Xinran wanted to determine how long to wait, but he couldn’t answer this question, so he could only smile back, “I don’t know, you have to go down and ask Huang Hailin.”
While the two were talking, Zhao Ying came over from a distance, picked up the body of a mercenary who had fallen to the ground, stepped on the steps, and hung the body on the hanger above the steps.
Although Zhao Ying was able to carry the corpse, it was not easy. Seeing that she was struggling, Wu Zhongyuan stood up to help. Seeing that he wanted to get up, Wang Xinran squinted at him.
If he sat down here, Wu Zhongyuan would not be Wu Zhongyuan. Knowing that Wang Xinran was looking at him, he still got up and carried the body of another mercenary, and threw it into the trap behind the steps.
Wang Xinran knew why Zhao Ying did this, but she had no idea of a truce, “Are you worried that the living mercenary will conflict with us when they see their bodies?”
“Isn’t that what you want?” Zhao Ying sneered, “I won’t give you an excuse to do it.”
“I won’t leave you an accomplice or an excuse to clear yourself.” Wang Xinran also sneered.
The two pointed to Maimang, Wu Zhongyuan listened in the clouds and fog, and it took more than ten seconds to understand what the two meant. Zhao Ying meant that Wang Xinran deliberately did not deal with the corpse, in order to intensify the conflict. Make the last mercenary angry, and then take the opportunity to eradicate him.
Wang Xinran means that the last mercenary alive is a potential threat to them. He may shoot black guns from behind. If Zhao Ying kills them personally, he will never forgive Zhao Ying, but if It was this mercenary who “made his own decisions” to kill them, and he might cooperate with Zhao Ying and others.
Wu Zhongyuan frowned secretly, wanting to understand what the two were thinking. The two women were more careful than him, and all potential possibilities had been thought of.
“If she dares to kill me again, I will kill her.” Zhao Ying said to Wu Zhongyuan.
“I agree,” Wu Zhongyuan nodded, “but if your people dare to shoot a black gun in the back, I will kill you.”
Zhao Ying glanced at Wu Zhongyuan and nodded with a smile, “Yes.”
Wu Zhongyuan is a key figure and the focus of contention between the two sides. His attitude directly characterizes the matter. Although the two sides are hostile, no one is allowed to attack the other before going out.
Wu Zhongyuan has no obvious preference for one side, and the direct consequence is that both parties are dissatisfied with him. In the eyes of both parties, he has no position.
After that, everyone didn’t speak for a long time. In order to save electricity, everyone turned off their flashlights, and the stone room was dark.
Wu Zhongyuan doesn’t like the depression in a closed environment, but he likes darkness and silence. In this environment, he can think better and sort out all kinds of messy clues.
He first thought about the most important issue. He now has six spirit stones in his hand, one of which can be used for two. If the analysis by those overseas experts is correct, he still needs three spirit stones to activate the formation. Law.
In addition, Zhao Ying also said just now that according to their exclusion analysis, only two spiritual stones can be found, including this one from Sanxingdui, that is to say, after obtaining this one from Sanxingdui, only There is an unknown area that contains spiritual stones left to explore.
Now there is such a problem. Even if he gets this piece and the other piece of Sanxingdui, he still has one piece left. This piece can only be obtained from Zhao Ying.
How can I get a Spirit Stone from her hand?
It must be very difficult, but it’s not impossible, because Zhao Ying didn’t know that he had an unused spirit stone in his hand, and the energy contained in this spirit stone was equivalent to two ordinary spirit stones. . The direct consequence of this situation is that even if he gets the spiritual stones here and in another area, Zhao Ying thinks that he only has seven spiritual stones in his hand, and even if he is given another one, he will only have eight. And with only eight dollars, he would definitely not be able to leave.
As long as Zhao Ying has this idea, it is not impossible for him to obtain a spiritual stone from her.
Wu Zhongyuan is puzzled and curious about the area other than Sanxingdui that may contain spiritual stones. According to Zhao Ying’s words, that area is more dangerous than Sanxingdui, but at this time he can only suppress it. Keep your doubts and curiosity, because even if he asks, Zhao Ying will definitely not tell him the relevant situation, unless he agrees to cooperate with Zhao Ying and others.
Another problem he faced at this time was that the 18th Bureau had not been able to find any clues related to those warriors for a long time, and he was still short of three spirit stones. If he continued to cooperate with the 18th Bureau , the possibility of finding three spirit stones within half a year is slim, even three years is unlikely. Before, in front of the underground palace where the great wizard slept, he had seen the message he sent to himself when he returned to the past. Even if he could go back after half a year, the situation of his tribe was already very bad. Half a year was already the limit. , even if you go back, you can only collect the corpses for your own clansmen.
Can’t afford to drag, can’t drag.
Since you can’t afford it, you can only “cooperate” with Zhao Ying and others. Only by cooperating with Zhao Ying and others can you know where to find the next piece of spiritual stone.
But right now Zhao Ying and others think that he has five spiritual stones. If he gets another one here, he will have six, and Zhao Ying has three, so this is nine. If he gets another one, he will have six. The last piece is ten dollars. Once they get ten dollars, Zhao Ying and others will strengthen their guard against him and follow him to the underground palace where the formation is located. Once he leaves, the formation of the wormhole will be opened. And the shutdown device will fall into the hands of Zhao Ying and others, and this is what he does not want to see.
He doesn’t really want to cooperate with Zhao Ying, so he can’t let Zhao Ying and others think that he has collected ten spiritual stones. Therefore, he must not take one of these stones in his own hands. He must try to make Wang Xinran To take it away, not only must Wang Xinran take it, but also the unused spiritual stone must be secretly handed over to Wang Xinran to prevent Zhao Ying and others from checking his backpack during the “cooperation” process.
After a comprehensive and sober review of the situation, Wu Zhongyuan made the decision to “cooperate” with Zhao Ying.
To cooperate with Zhao Ying is to break with Wang Xinran and others. Wang Xinran is very smart, and she will definitely understand her actions, but Zhao Ying is also very smart. How can it be reasonable to break up with Wang Xinran? How could the break not arouse her suspicions?
He has to find opportunities, and he has to find suitable opportunities. From this moment on, he can no longer have private contact with Wang Xinran. It is best to stay in Zhao Ying’s line of sight, otherwise Zhao Ying will suspect that he is conspiring with Wang Xinran.
In addition to these, he is still thinking about another thing, and that is how to have an explanation for Zhao Ying. In the end, he must give Zhao Ying an explanation, an explanation that will prevent her from being severely punished by her superiors, regardless of whether she uses it. What method and means got the spirit stone from her, the essence is to deceive her, and the deception itself is based on the other party’s trust in him. A man should not deceive a woman who trusts him, even if this woman is foreign hostile. power.
If you want to give her an explanation, you will lose some research value more or less. This is not what a person with a clear stand should do, but it is what a man should do.
About half an hour, an hour, two hours, two hours or so, everyone vaguely heard the abnormal sound caused by the friction of the stone, which indicated that the mechanism in the maze was pushing the trapped people here.
Hearing the abnormal sound, everyone stood up and turned on the flashlight.
Wu Zhongyuan was the first person to turn on the strong light flashlight. After opening it, he first illuminated the entrance, then turned to illuminate the hanged corpses, and finally walked to the steps to observe the corpse he had thrown into the trap earlier.
His series of actions seems to anyone to be watching the death of the two mercenaries who were killed earlier, to ensure that people who are coming in will not find out that they were killed, but in fact he It was to take the opportunity to hand over the spirit stone to Wang Xinran, because the more people there were, the harder it would be for him to find a suitable opportunity to transfer the spirit stone.
He has night vision, so he could not turn on the light. The purpose of turning on the light is to shake Zhao Ying’s eyes when she turns her head, so that she can not see clearly in a short time, so that she can transfer her spirit more secretly. stone.
When returning from the trap, Wu Zhongyuan shoved the spiritual stone he had taken out while drinking water into Wang Xinran’s hand.
Wang Xinran turned his head in doubt, Wu Zhongyuan had already walked forward.
Wang Xinran had already reacted when she turned her head, and did not raise her hand to check. She guessed what Wu Zhongyuan had stuffed into her based on the shape and weight of the object, and even understood what Wu Zhongyuan was doing.
The sound of the stone rubbing became clearer and clearer. A few minutes later, footsteps were heard at the entrance. Soon, Lin Qingming and a mercenary appeared under the illumination of everyone’s lights.
Seeing familiar figures and faces, Wu Zhongyuan was very excited. He thought he would never see Lin Qingming again. Seeing him from here, it really felt like a lifetime.
“Brother.” Wu Zhongyuan greeted him happily.
Lin Qingming did not expect to see Wu Zhongyuan here, and was very surprised, “Why are you here?”
Wu Zhongyuan hadn’t answered yet, when a gunshot suddenly sounded behind him, and the mercenary walking beside Lin Qingming fell to the ground.
Wu Zhongyuan turned around and saw that Wang Xinran had turned the gun on Zhao Ying, “Don’t move.”
“What are you doing?” Wu Zhongyuan shouted loudly.
Wang Xinran did not answer, but said to Yang Yi, who was beside her, “Hold her gun.”
Yang Yi was also a little surprised, but he still walked over and unloaded Zhao Ying’s pistol.
“Body search.” Wang Xinran said in a deep voice.
Wu Zhongyuan hurried forward after hearing the words, pushed Yang Yi away, turned to Wang Xinran and said, “What do you want to do?”
“They won’t kill you, but they will kill us.” Wang Xinran said sternly.
Wu Zhongyuan glanced at Wang Xinran, pulled out his pistol and stuffed it into Zhao Ying’s hand.
Zhao Ying gave Wang Xinran a cold look, loaded the pistol, and pinned the pistol to her waist.
Lin Qingming had been on the sidelines when the accident happened, and asked Wu Zhongyuan, “Who are they?”
“The official people,” Wu Zhongyuan said, “they asked me to help them find things.”
“No business.” Lin Qingming’s expression was serious.
Wu Zhongyuan was speechless and could only change the subject, “Brother, take a rest first.”
Lin Qingming’s gaze swept across the faces of Wang Xinran and Yang Yi, then walked to Zhao Ying’s side and stood with her, silently stating his position.
Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at Wang Xinran. He didn’t blame Wang Xinran. What Wang Xinran did was actually cooperating with him, seizing the opportunity, creating conflicts, and paving the way for his subsequent transformation.
What is tacit understanding, this is tacit understanding, familiarity is not the root of tacit understanding, intelligence is, tacit understanding can only happen between two smart people.
Lin Qingming didn’t talk much at first. With outsiders present, it was inconvenient for him to speak. He didn’t say much to Wu Zhongyuan. After asking about the following situation, he nodded slowly, “Let’s go, go down…”
