Chapter 142 Shelf Life
"Come out yet?" Liming and Zhang Lu sat opposite each other in a beverage shop. Liming was biting a straw and drinking fruit tea while scrolling through Moments, and found the latest news about Blake "seeing the sun again".
Black
I Blake is out again. 【Bright Sunshine.jpg】
Li Ming casually clicked a thumbs up, and then commented: "When you come out, be a good person."
Turning off the phone, Liming saw Zhang Lu staring at him, and the other party's milk tea cup was bubbling.
Liming wondered: "What's wrong?"
"Hmph...it's okay, who were you chatting with just now? You laughed so happily."
"Is there?" Li Ming touched his face and said, "I didn't chat with anyone, I just saw an interesting circle of friends."
Zhang Lu nodded, and then suddenly asked a rather wide-ranging question: "Does Brother A Ming have a girlfriend?"
"No." Li Ming shook his head, glanced at Lada and Zhong Fen who were enjoying the sundae, and said casually.
"What about the girl who cares?"
"Yes." Liming thought of Boss Ju, a rich woman who was responsible for paying his salary, and naturally had to consider the other party's mood when doing business.
Zhang Lu pursed her lips, seeing that Li Ming's expression was completely devoid of enthusiasm, as a childhood sweetheart, she could see right away that she must have not understood the meaning of her question.
However, because of this, Zhang Lu also felt a lot easier.
……
"Ah, the soft cushions on the sofa are really comfortable." Blake leaned on the sofa, feeling indescribably comfortable. He lived underground these days, eating canned food, sleeping in sleeping bags, and chatting with lemon essence and The reincarnated steam crab of Tsundere.
Now, an ordinary sofa gave Blake the idea of "death and peace of mind", and he slumped there lazily, as if he and the sofa had evolved and merged into one.
Huai couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling, "I'll go and prepare some cool drinks for you to relieve the heat."
"Huai Dejiang, let me help you too." Hearing this, Feng Lu volunteered to raise her hand and followed.
Wanlong, Xiaoju'er and Cattleya said that they were very sleepy, so they went back to their room to sleep first.
After all, these girls haven't had a good time these days, and just chasing a criminal gang has consumed a lot of energy.
Suddenly, only Zhulan and Black were left in the living room.
Zhulan looked at Black lying on the sofa, glanced at Huai De and Feng Lu who were busy in the kitchen, paused for a while, and asked, "Have you participated?"
Hearing this, Black opened his squinted eyes, he was stunned for a while, and asked doubtfully, "Participate in what?"
"fighting."
Black frowned at the ambiguous reminder. He touched his arm subconsciously, and felt that the "屮" tattoo was faintly chilling again. He didn't know exactly what Zhulan wanted to ask, but he guessed It must have something to do with this tattoo, and the weird space that I accidentally glimpsed when I was in a coma and woke up for a moment.
Seeing Blake's bewildered look, Zhulan immediately understood that this kid hadn't participated in the trial of that tower.
If he had personally participated in the trial, he would have been as sensitive to it as she was, and he would never forget it.
After thinking about it, Zhulan asked again: "Do you know of people like us?"
"There is a friend who is an Interpol, and Quecchis, they must be too." Black replied in a low voice.
Zhulan frowned. When she heard that there were prisoners like "Quiqisi", she knew that the tower of death should not distinguish between good and evil.
Thinking that Black hadn't personally experienced the trial experience, she thought about it, and within the scope of not violating the tattoo prohibition, she kindly reminded: "If one day, you suddenly come to a mysterious place, don't panic, Keep calm, the opponent will be strong, I hope you can give it your all."
"Go all out?" Black murmured, his heart trembling, he had already vaguely guessed something.
Miss Zhulan, like Queches, has been to that mysterious space. That space is likely to be a place like the Colosseum. One day he will be suddenly teleported to that kind of place, and then forced to participate in a " fighting".
Since it is a battle, there must be winners and losers.
"What will happen if you win, and what will happen if you lose?" Black asked tentatively.
Zhulan opened her mouth, but unable to speak, she touched her ankle helplessly.
Seeing this, Black swallowed secretly. Although Zhulan couldn't say it, judging from the other party's reaction, it was obvious that winning or losing would affect him.
"You won?" Blake asked again.
Zhulan shook her head regretfully, she felt that the tattoo on her ankle was already icy cold, and this was the best information she could reveal.
Since Miss Zhulan and her Pokémon are still alive and well, it means that even if they fail, the punishment should not be to the point of death.
So, Blake finally breathed a sigh of relief.
stare……
I could see a corner of the corridor in the living room, and the two heads watched the interaction between Zhulan and Black with suspicious eyes.
"What are they talking about?" Cattleya said with gritted teeth.
Xiao Ju'er squinted her eyes and said, "I don't know either. Sometimes they talk about fighting, and sometimes they talk about winning or losing. And when they talk, one grabs the ankle and the other grabs the arm, as if there is something there."
Regarding this, Cattleya frowned and said: "Speaking of which, Lord Zhulan asked me to hypnotize her once before, and wanted me to ask her about her experience in the ruins of Guixu in the Shenzhou area, but Strangely... one day was a particularly strange experience."
"Strange?" Xiao Ju'er was a little curious.
Cattleya nodded, and said: "When recounting the experience of that night, Master Zhulan still lied under my hypnotic state, which is incredible."
"Can you still lie after being hypnotized by superpowers?" Xiao Ju'er felt absurd. She could still lie after being hypnotized, so is this still hypnosis?
Cattleya said in an extremely certain tone: "Yes, it seems that there is some kind of force that prevents Lord Zhulan from telling the truth behind that lie. I have tried countless methods, but all failed without exception. This prohibition is very powerful and terrible."
"If that's the case, wouldn't Miss Zhulan and Mr. Black both fall into a mysterious incident that we don't know about?" Xiao Ju'er was a little surprised.
"This may be the case, and this mysterious event must be related to the newly unearthed super ancient ruins in the Shenzhou area."
"Shenzhou area, super ancient ruins." Xiao Ju'er thought to herself, thinking, Li Ming lives in that area, maybe she can ask Li Ming to investigate this matter specially.
But thinking that Liming has just started, and even a champion like Zhulan has lost, and asking Liming to investigate such a mysterious incident will put him in danger.For a while, Xiao Ju'er was tangled up in her heart.
……
Coming to the Shenhua Research Institute again, Li Ming only felt that the changes could be described as earth-shaking, and it could be regarded as really having the face that a research institute should have.The neat and clean walls that can reflect light, the surrounding vegetation that has been trimmed exquisitely and beautifully, and the well-equipped security personnel, everything looks so complete.
He walked to the door, showed the illustrated book to the security uncle at the door, was greeted warmly, and was sent into the research institute, and then a passing researcher took him, all the way to find Dr. Qian's private office.
"Dr. Qian, Mr. Liming has arrived." The female researcher who got an answer after knocking on the door led Liming to push the door in, and said to Dr. Qian who was drinking tea on the sofa.
"Thank you, you go down first." Dr. Qian smiled at her, and then said to Li Ming, "No need to say more, just sit down first."
After the researcher exited, Li Ming blinked and sat down.
Dr. Qian turned up the small ceramic teacup that was upside down on the coffee table, then clamped the cup wall with wooden tweezers, put it in a pot of boiling water to soak for a while, and then put the steaming cup in front of dawn to drink for dawn. Tea.
"It's hard work for you to run all the way here."
"Thank you." Li Ming glanced at the full teacup, thanked Dr. Qian, and said, "I'm also very interested in the things you said."
"Actually, what I want you to do is also very simple. I hope you can become the champion of the Shenzhou region in the shortest possible time. Our Shenzhou has not had a champion for quite a while, since the one ten years ago After the young man named Lu Xiaokong becomes the champion."
Li Ming nodded, this is what he wants to do next, um, on the bright side, he wants to do it.
"Secondly, I hope you can also help me investigate matters related to the ruins and the organization. Because if you want to become a champion, you will definitely embark on the journey of a trainer, so you who travel around the area may be able to People like us may find some other discoveries in unexpected places." Dr. Qian said with a smile, took a sip of the tea he brewed by himself, and nodded in satisfaction.
Li Ming made an "OK" gesture and said, "Yes, but what help can you offer me?"
Dr. Qian seemed to have been prepared for this, he showed a mysterious smile, walked to the desk, and took out a simple box from the safe in the cabinet below.
Pushing the box to Liming, Dr. Qian motioned Liming to open it.
Open the box with exquisite mechanism, pull the top cover from the top, and then, Li Ming saw a glass bottle filled with gray sand lying quietly on the soft white cloth, and the gray sand shone brightly inside the bottle of light.
"This is?" Li Ming didn't think that Dr. Qian would use some superficial things to fool himself.
"The legendary holy ash is taken from the mysterious powder sprinkled from the body of the Phoenix King. It has incredible power. This bottle is enough to immediately revive a life that has just passed away. 40 years ago, I met that rainbow-like Like a divine bird, I wanted to subdue it when I was young and frivolous, and fought with it, and finally failed miserably. I saw with my own eyes the scene where my Pokémon were engulfed by flames and then reborn from the ashes. This power to control life and death It made me feel powerless to fight any more, and I was convinced.
After Ho-oh left, I tried my best to collect the mysterious powder that Ho-oh used to revive Pokémon. In the end, I only collected this bottle, and now it belongs to you. "Dr. Qian said with a smile.
Hearing this, Li Ming was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously: "40 years ago? By the way, do these Sanwu products have a shelf life?"
Hell rolls, heaven catapults, cannons on earth, death walks, offerings of love, throat poking and kicking...
