Zhong Yi called Chu Ge all night until "the other party has turned off his phone", so he had no choice but to send a cursing WeChat message before dawn.

I thought I couldn't contact Chu Ge, and I was about to call Chu Jiangliu to study a few words, but Chu Ge's WeChat message came back at this time: "I got it, I'll be here."

Just come...

This is Los Angeles. You just woke up. Have you applied for your visa? Even if it’s done, I don’t know when it will arrive. Is it possible that you can move across the entire Pacific space?

Thinking about how Chu Ge had to make a fuss on the plane before going to the magic city, Zhong Yi deeply doubted whether this guy could become the "god" his father called him in just half a year. Damn it, Zhong Yi's heart bleeds when he thinks of that time in Magic City and his poor old Haval.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come over." Zhong Yi replied. After thinking about it, he still sent a letter to Chu Jiangliu: "My son has just come over now, are you able to make arrangements in time?"

Chu Jiangliu: "Oh, I understand."

Zhong Yi: "...Please, I'm going to enter the tiger's den. Is it appropriate for you to play tricks on me?"

Chu Jiangliu said: "I can only say that as long as you lure Sandro there, the follow-up matters will be left to me. But to be honest, no one can guarantee your safety in that situation. If you refuse to go, I do not blame you."

Zhong Yi laughed: "Go, why don't you go? I'm going there myself, not doing anything for you."

Chu Jiangliu was silent for a long time: "Why are you working so hard?"

"I have my own affairs. I have a strong hunch that it's time to reveal this." Zhong Yi put away his phone and left leisurely.

Chu Jiangliu retracted his thread and frowned slightly.

Zhong Yi has always been just a "non-staff" and does not follow official instructions and does his own thing. Everyone knows that he has been exploring the secret of spiritual energy recovery in his own way, which is said to be related to the death of his former lover.

No one can investigate this past event... Outsiders have no way of knowing exactly what happened. Chu Jiangliu can only infer from the age of Dr. Zheng in the Demon City that the time was roughly during the Anti-Japanese War - Zhong Yi's actual age should not be the same as anyone else's. As expected, according to Chu Jiangliu's inference, the death of Zhong Yi's lover should be linked to his acquisition of superpowers, which led Zhong Yi to keep investigating the source of his superpowers.

In other words, Zhong Yi gained the ability to live forever during the Anti-Japanese War. Based on the age of more than 20 at that time, he is only one hundred and twenty now. The so-called immortal, in fact, compared with Qiuqiu... well...

Because of this, when everyone regarded the Four Symbols as the source of spiritual energy, Zhong Yi never expressed an opinion and continued to investigate himself. Facts have proved that it is very likely that the Four Symbols are not the root cause. At most, they are the cause of the explosion of spiritual energy in the past few years. There must have been other reasons earlier. Chu Ge was not born at that time, so it has nothing to do with it.

Of course, as we all know, supernatural powers and even immortality may have existed in ancient times, but this may not necessarily have its roots. Could it be traced back to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors? Zhuanxu Jedi Heavenly Power? No, it actually makes no sense... So what Zhong Yi is actually pursuing may not be the root cause, he has his own goals.

Zhong Yi called Karl again and made an appointment at a time and place.

The location is just outside the city, a very common entertainment company in Los Angeles. Karl was waiting outside the door. When he saw Zhong Yi getting out of the taxi, he opened his arms and hugged him with a smile: "I knew you would come."

Zhong Yi followed him inside with a half-smile: "Why are you so sure?"

"Your exploration of your immortality has become an obsession." Karl smiled slightly: "I hope you can get the answer from Sandro."

Zhong Yi looked at the employees coming and going in the entertainment company and suddenly smiled: "No wonder Robin and others were playing music back then. Your roots are in the entertainment company."

"Of course." Karl said: "We can also cooperate with the "The End of the Sky" that you are here to promote and operate this time. Our company's channels are very powerful."

"I believe it." Zhong Yi smiled and said, "It's a pity that I don't care about this stall. Let's talk about it later."

Karl shrugged and said nothing.

"Ding", the elevator door opened, and the two of them walked in. The fragrant breeze blew behind them, and a blond man with choppy blue eyes hurried in. When he saw Karl standing inside, he quickly showed a charming smile: "Mr. Carter... What a coincidence..."

Karl blinked at Zhong Yi: "Do you know him?"

Zhong Yida said: "Well, she is a very famous little queen. It is said that she is a rare pure queen in your country."

Karl nuzzled at the woman, who understood and came to Zhong Yi's side: "What do you call this gentleman? Your English is very standard..."

"Actually, it's not very standard." Feeling the warmth coming from his body, Zhong Yi's expression didn't change at all, and he said calmly: "I may have mistaken the words coquettish and pure."

The woman didn't mind at all, but moved closer, her red lips almost touching his face: "Don't... men like those who are pure on the outside but coquettish on the inside..."

Zhong Yi said calmly: "Maybe Chu Ge will have something in common with you."

Without seeing how he moved, the woman was inexplicably pushed several feet away and leaned against the elevator wall. She still looked like she was next to someone, which looked very funny.

Karl sighed: "So, what's the point of living a long life for a person like you?"

Zhong Yi smiled slightly: "I think so too."

The elevator stopped at the middle floor, and the woman ran out in embarrassment, muttering: "Crazy."

The door closed again, and Zhong Yi sighed: "I became your blood slave and don't know it, poor woman."

Karl said: "She knows."

"Um?"

"Isn't this giving her eternal life? Her famous childlike appearance depends on this, otherwise she wouldn't be so popular. For this, you are willing to be my dog, let alone a blood slave?"

Zhong Yi nodded: "Yes. It seems that you are really suitable for this society."

Karl smiled and said: "Of course. This society is tailor-made for people like you and me, but you just don't want to know it."

"It's hard to say who is enlightened..." Zhong Yi muttered to himself, then suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, I've read a joke and I just want to ask you."

Kalqi said: "What joke?"

"Would you collect their sanitary napkins and use them as tea bags?"

"……roll."

The elevator finally reached the top floor.

There was no one in the corridor, and the doors of several offices were closed. At the end of the corridor was the president's office, with the door open.

Karl said: "Sandru is waiting for you, so I won't go in."

Zhong Yi nodded, ignored him, and slowly walked towards the brightly lit door.

Leather shoes made a tapping sound as she walked down the aisle. There was silence around her, and her footsteps echoed. Just now, it was an extremely lively entertainment company, with people everywhere, and just going up and down an elevator gave people a feeling of eerie ghost prison, which could not be offset by bright lights.

Especially when you know exactly what you're about to see.

Zhong Yi looked at the smooth tile walls on the left and right. Each tile reflected his own shadow strangely, like an army of the undead.

He smiled and stepped into the president's office without changing his expression.

Facing the huge boss's desk, a crystal skeleton sat with his hands crossed on the table and his big eyes watching Zhong Yi's arrival.

That posture is very much like that of an intellectual and elegant woman.

Zhong Yi could even imagine its beauty in life.

Of course this is not Sandro, just one of his thousands of skeletons.

"Karl said you are looking for the secret of immortality." The skeleton spoke, but unfortunately it was not a moving female voice, but the sharp and harsh sound of bone friction.

"What he said is not quite accurate. I am already immortal, so there is no need to look for the secret of immortality." Zhong Yi said lightly: "The reason why I am looking for you is to look for the secret of death."

The skeleton seemed to be laughing: "You want to die?"

"To know life, you must also know death. This is the exploration of life, nothing more." Zhong Yi said: "Perhaps you are the only one in the whole world who can best communicate with death."

The skeleton nodded: "So...what can you give in exchange? Join me?"

Zhong Yi laughed: "Do you think I look like an idiot who came all the way to be a dog?"

The skeleton said calmly: "What are your conditions?"

Zhong Yi stared at it for a long time and said slowly: "If you can restore the flesh and blood and show it to me, maybe I can consider it."
