Ronin: Start with the cotton

Chapter 154 The Return
Qiao Shan's ridicule eased Lao Zhang's tense mood a lot.

At this moment, under his calm appearance, there is a turbulent heart hidden. Even more than 20 years of criminal police experience can't calm him down.

In fact,
Although the scene of Qiao Shan pulling Wang Mengmeng out of the void shocked Lao Zhang, what really made him doubt his life was the nine times of memory that suddenly appeared in his mind.

And after getting off the car, the world's unreasonable explanations for everything...

……

This made Lao Zhang think that he was hypnotized by Qiao Shan, or that he was suffering from schizophrenia.

At that moment,

He even thought about which mental hospital to live in Jialin City in the future!

He said he was late because of work, but in fact, Lao Zhang spent more than two hours checking information and asking colleagues and leaders for information.

It's a pity that when Lao Zhang vaguely explained to Ju Du, "If something special happened to me", Ju Ju not only didn't understand what Lao Zhang said,
Even wanted him to take a drug test.

And his apprentice Jiang Feng went too far, even calling his teacher's wife directly.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lao Zhang gave Jiang Feng a headache in order not to reveal his secrets, so he found a reason to leave work early.

……

Lao Zhang took out his mobile phone, clicked on a video, pushed the mobile phone in front of Qiao Shan, and frowned:

"This is the surveillance video of Wang Mengmeng on the No. 45 bus that I called up in the bureau... I clearly remember that she was killed by the collision, but look here, after she got on the bus, she still has to be on the bus." Getting off the bus along the bridge along the river, there were still muck trucks passing by, but the scene of the accident turned into two large cars rubbing against each other, and when the front door was opened, the monitoring of bus No. 45 failed and turned into snowflakes."

"And the monitoring of Yanjiang Daqiaoshan shows that there is no picture of Wang Mengmeng getting out of the car and being hit."

It's so bizarre!

Didn't they feel something was wrong with such a weird disappearance?

"Look at the end, adjust the video to [-] times the speed... I didn't see you in the car, but the passengers in the car seemed to be hit by someone, and they were stumbling around."

Lao Zhang pushed his glasses, stared at Qiao Shan's expression, and said curiously: "If I hadn't seen Wang Mengmeng's appearance with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that you really went back to five years ago!"

"how did you do it?"

……

Qiao Shan washed the tea again, looked up at the video, shook his head, pushed the phone back, and said with a broken smile:
"As expected of an old detective..."

Faced with such a bizarre incident, the first thing to do was to find evidence!

Lao Zhang is too strict in his work!
"There is nothing so simple in this world."

Qiao Shan said slowly:
"Everything in the world has its own characteristics. When something happens in the world beyond your knowledge, people will not lack the spirit of questioning, but seldom have the courage to accept it."

"To this world, the time loop is like a bug in a program. I just found the bug and fixed it."

……

Hearing Qiao Shan's words, Lao Zhang pondered for a long time, then nodded silently.

Yes, sometimes it takes a lot of courage to accept new things, because it impacts your perception of the world for decades.

It's as if you always thought: "World: I am Jiang Zidi."

Then one day, the world tells you: "I'm not!"

"But I checked your past experience, you are just a veteran, how could..." Lao Zhang drank the tea in his cup in one breath, looked at Qiao Shan with burning eyes, and asked the truth:

"How do you know these things? Have you experienced time loops before?"

"Will there be other cyclic events in this world in the future?"

"Can we master this technology?"

Lao Zhang expressed his doubts and conjectures in one breath, and then felt that the tone of his question was too eager, so he quickly waved his hand and said:

"Well, I don't mean to doubt you, I'm just curious!"

"After all, this is a good way to save people. If we can use this scientifically... According to what you said, this is called a "world bug". I believe that many accidents will be avoided in the future, and many innocent families will be saved!"

……

Qiao Shan raised his head and looked at Lao Zhang strangely.

Lao Zhang was a little uncomfortable being watched by Qiao Shan, he moved his butt awkwardly, and asked tentatively: "Well, I...did I say something wrong?"

Isn't it what you said that everything in the world has its own characteristics, and those who try it must accept it?
Since I accept it,
Isn't it normal to think about using him?

"No! You're right!"

Qiao Shan shook his head, and said seriously: "You just have too much brains!"

How dare you think!

I also just want to perfectly undo the cycle and untie the knot of Wang Xingde and his wife.Fortunately, you actually want to use the time loop to serve the public!

This consciousness is awesome!

……

Qiao Shan raised his hand as a false gesture, and the tea in the teapot floated out of the spout and into Lao Zhang's teacup. The tea overflowed the cup without a single drop falling on the table.

The moment Wang Mengmeng was rescued, his foundation building cultivation was restored.

When Lao Zhang saw this scene, his eyes widened, his right hand trembled slightly, and he said in shock:

"This……"

Qiao Shan pushed the teacup in front of Lao Zhang, and asked lightly:

"Can you understand how I did it?"

"Can you understand why?"

Looking at the sluggish old Zhang, seeing that he was unable to answer for a long time, Qiao Shan explained:
"Just like your perception of me now, so is my perception of time loops."

"The time loop is a very profound thing. I have had various speculations about its principle, but I still don't know the real reason for its formation."

"If the time loop is a test paper, my level is only an ordinary student, and I may be able to answer the right answer, but I can't make up such a question now."

……

Qiao Shan glanced sideways towards the door, and suddenly laughed and cursed:
"Since you're back, come in and sit down. What's the matter hiding outside and eavesdropping? Don't be afraid of being kicked out by the waiter!"

Rudy probed quietly,

Seeing being discovered, Hehe scratched his head and walked in with a smirk, said hello to Lao Zhang, and explained: "Master, I'm afraid I will disturb your chat."

Xiao Heyun and Li Shiqing were still taking a walk outside, but he had actually returned long ago.

But after hearing the conversation between the two inside, he didn't come in for a while. He wanted to hear what the two of them were talking about and see what Lao Zhang's attitude was towards them.

But I didn't expect to see such an amazing scene!
Take things from a distance!
……

Qiao Shan didn't care about Lu Di, let him sit down at any place, and continued to explain to Lao Zhang:
"The conditions for the formation of the time loop are too harsh. Although it is a bug, it is a perfect bug."

"Actually, perfect things are common."

"Just like the saying: beauty is beauty, only ugliness is strange."

"Taoist divination reasoning, you have seen it in the previous cycle, it conforms to the eight doors of the human body."

"According to the explanation of Buddhism, it can actually explain the eight passengers as the eight sufferings of life in the world of mortals. Birth, old age, sickness, death, parting from love, resentment and hatred, not wanting, and the five yins are flaming. Look at it. Doesn't it just correspond to the key man, Aunt Yao, Lao Jiao, and the bungee jumping instructor one by one."

"Even if we don't talk about Buddhism and Taoism, we can talk about philosophy and universal meaning."

Qiao Shan pointed at Lu Di, and said mercilessly: "They are all people tamed by society. Lu Di was bound by the love of his parents, and Lao Jiao was tamed by the hardships of life. The eight of them are the epitome of this society."

"Among them, only Li Shiqing has a pure heart, so she can circulate soberly, because she has not been assimilated yet."

"Even though Xiao Heyun has dust in his heart, when Li Shiqing asked for help, he was willing to help, which shows that his essence is still not assimilated, and this can also explain why he can wake up after the fifth cycle."

……

Qiao Shan looked at Lao Zhang, smiled and asked:

"So you said, which one is the real reason for the formation of the time loop?"

When Lao Zhang heard this, he was at a loss for words again.

Qiao Shan's words were so straightforward that even a materialist like him could understand.

"I see……"

Old Zhang sighed.

It seems that trying to use the time loop to save people is not feasible.

Qiao Shan patted the fascinated Lu Di who was listening, smiled and said to Lao Zhang: "So, instead of thinking about using the time loop to save the tragedy, why don't you help me with this kid in the future."

Lu Di was stunned: "Me?"

How did the topic come to me?

Lao Zhang also frowned, not understanding what Qiao Shan meant.

Qiao Shan didn't explain, a milky white dragon egg appeared in his hand, looked at Lu Di with a smile, and said slowly:
"You always call me Master. Although I never promised, I can't let you call me in vain. The time loop has been lifted, and I'm going back to my own world. Before I leave, I would like to ask you...boy, would you Guard your world?"

Lu Di stood up, he understood what Qiao Shan meant, and said firmly:
"I do!!!"

"it is good!"

This trick really works well for young people with secondary illnesses!

Qiao Shan smiled secretly, clenched the dragon egg tightly, and with a thought, surging power poured into his body from the dragon egg.

Although Lu Di is a bit out of his mind, he is the only one who believes that he is a visitor from another world, a person who traveled from other worlds.

That being the case, why not give him a chance!

……

[Natal supernatural power: blood attunement! (Weakened version)]

As the saying goes, the nine sons of dragons are different, but the blood of the dragon family is the unique top-level existence in the ocean, so there are other legends about koi, shrimp, crabs, and dragons practicing to transform into dragons.

This weakened version of magical power is not powerful, and its effect is very monotonous.

Generally, it is only used by the dragon clan to stimulate the potential of subordinates, improve their cultivation base qualifications, so that they can have a trace of dragon clan power, and look like a prestige.

But now it is just right for Lu Di!

Qiao Shan's eyes gradually glowed with a blue light, and his whole body gradually floated into the air, and a cool breeze blew up in the small tea room.

But Lu Di and Lao Zhang felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

A phantom of a white dragon slowly emerged behind Qiao Shan, and two lantern-sized eyes looked down on Lao Zhang and Lu Di.

The air seemed to freeze, and both of them watched this scene in disbelief.

While Lu Di was shocked, his heart beat even harder!
Sure enough, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. I am ready. Master, come here as much as you want!

Rudy closed his eyes and opened his arms.

……

Time seemed to slow down.

After a while, Qiao Shan, who was suspended in mid-air and hadn't moved for a long time, suddenly sighed, and the phantom of the white dragon behind him split into two, and suddenly got into the bodies of the two of Lu Di!
As the phantom penetrated into the body, Lao Zhang and Lu Di fainted instantly!
In fact, Qiao Shan didn't intend to enlighten Lao Zhang at the beginning, because if this man evolved into a supernatural being, he would probably volunteer to be a guinea pig and let scientists study the supernatural mysteries.

This is not what Qiao Shan wants to see.

The energy in the dragon egg is now just enough to use the weakened version of the supernatural power twice, and it will return to zero when it is used up.

His original plan was to let Lao Zhang, an old detective, use his experience to help Lu Di grow into a qualified guardian of the world after he left this world.

After all, according to his previous guess,
Changing the world is likely to be the key to improving the evaluation of Tianshu.

Moreover, it was not easy for him to nourish the dragon eggs, and he had saved the energy with great difficulty over the years, and he was really reluctant to let it run out once it was exhausted.

But seeing Lao Zhang's sincere eyes, especially seeing Lao Zhang's useless right hand, Qiao Shan finally softened his heart.

"Forget it, I hope that after this comeback, the evaluation lottery can pay back."

Qiao Shan slowly landed on the ground, looked at the dim dragon egg, and retracted the Tianshu space with distress.

The bodies of the two people on the ground gradually began to react, and a phantom of dragon scales appeared on their arms from time to time. Qiao Shan looked at it for a moment and nodded in satisfaction.

When the two wake up, they will probably be surprised by their abilities.Although it is a weakened version of supernatural power, after the two evolved, their physical strength is basically equivalent to their current self, and it is no problem to fly over the wall.

"time to go……"

Qiao Shan took a pen and paper and wrote down a few words, put them on the table, slowly closed his eyes, and opened the seventh page of the Book of Heaven in the Sea of ​​Consciousness.

……

……

Smokey City, Oriental Apartments.

Qiao Shan sat on the sofa, opened his eyes suddenly, and practiced immediately.Feeling the innate mana flowing rapidly from the dantian into the meridian, Qiao Shan breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that this time travel would have an unexpected impact on him.

Heaven!lottery!
Qiao Shan became excited. He had a hunch that his evaluation would not be too low this time!
[World collection complete! 】

[Evaluation: Five stars! 】

[Reward: The heavens draw a lottery once! 】

yeah!
Even with Qiao Shan's concentration, seeing the final result, he couldn't help but get a little excited at this moment!
at last!

Finally got another [-]-star review!
Finally, the lottery can be drawn again!

……

[Whether to open the lucky draw of the heavens (X1)]

"Yes!"

With the confirmation of Qiao Shan's thoughts, the heavenly book in the sea of ​​consciousness closed suddenly, and began to spin around. At the same time, the heavenly book began to slowly glow with blood-red light!
The light changed from weak to strong, until it began to fill Qiao Shan's entire sea of ​​consciousness!

At the same time, the appearance of Tianshu is gradually changing...

really!

Seeing Tianshu's blood-red eyes for the second time, Qiao Shan was a little less panicked than before, and looked carefully.

"Is this blood eye really the body of the book? Or is it just a kind of ability of the book..."

Qiao Shan's doubts were not answered, and the bloody eyes quickly disappeared, returning to the appearance of the book of heaven.

The seventh page of the heavenly book!
[World collection complete! 】

[Evaluation: Five stars! 】

[Reward: A Nine Revolving Pill! (Produced in the World of Conferred Gods. Effect: Increase the longevity of the Huiyuan and enjoy the world.)]

Qiao Shan: "Fuck??!!"
