Chapter 51 Now learning Talun ancient prose
Ji Xun carried the two of them for a while, and then stopped when they found a corner of the corridor with almost no monsters.
After putting the two of them down, he patted his old friend again.
Chu Jiu opened his eyes and looked at his surroundings. Seeing that there were no skeleton monsters at all, he breathed a sigh of relief: he was out of danger.
Sure enough, this guy always finds a way.
Ji Xun looked at the black blood on his back clothes and reminded him casually: "You are seriously injured."
It was not his blood, but the blood he got from carrying this old friend.
Chujiu listened, but did not want to talk about the cause of the injury. He just said lightly: "Yeah."
I had been running away just now and didn't have time to deal with the injury. Now I have time to breathe. She turned her head and looked at her back, then took out a potion and poured it on, letting out corrosive gas.
It seemed to be in great pain, and her movements froze for a moment.
Ji Xun looked at her dejected mood and never expected that someone who could give her such a blow from behind must be a very trustworthy person.
The injury that allowed her to maintain this suppressed silver-haired state must also be serious.
However, Ji Xun didn’t have any penchant for prying into people’s privacy.
People are willing to speak and listen.
If you don’t say anything, let it pass.
The two of them had a basic understanding and there was no need to say more.
At this moment, the psychic named Nanjing also woke up.
She seemed to wake up from a nightmare.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately jumped up dexterously and scanned the surroundings very alertly.
Seeing that his companion Chujiu was safe and sound, Nan Jing put down the card in his hand.
The linen cloak had been lifted when he was carrying it while running away, and Ji Xun realized that it was a black-haired girl with a round head.
The gas mask blocked his appearance, but he sounded young, his eyes were lively, and his facial features were pretty good.
The most eye-catching thing is that she has a very good figure.
Even the loose adventurous tactical uniform could not hide the majestic width of her chest.
This is a mature figure that is completely incompatible with her cute round head.
Ji Xun just had a special impression, but he didn't have anything else on his mind.
Nan Jing seemed to be waking up from a dream, and asked Chujiu next to her with a confused expression, "Sister Chujiu, where are we?"
She remembered that her spirit had been shaken just now. Attacked and then suddenly fell unconscious.
I came here when I woke up.
Chu Jiu did not respond to this kind of question that she didn’t know about, but just reminded: "Xiaonan, this gentleman saved us."
"???"
Hearing this, Nan Jing looked over suspiciously, as if thinking about the meaning of this sentence: Save us?
This thought, as if the fragmented thoughts were clear again.
That’s right.
I was running away just now!
What about those endless skeletons?
Nan Jing looked around and found that not a single monster could be seen around the corridor.
The confusion in her eyes instantly turned into disbelief. Was she really out of danger?
Ji Xun looked at the psychic lady who seemed to be a little nervous, with a smile in her eyes.
The psychic lady seemed to have not yet recovered from her thoughts. Her big eyes blinked again and again, and the words "Am I still in a coma and dreaming" were written on her face.
Chujiu was accustomed to his companion's slow response, and reminded him a little helplessly: "Xiaonan, you should say 'thank you'"
Thinking about how he was the first in 407 The first time I discovered this guy's incredible ability to break situations, he was always in such a confused state.
But before he finished speaking, injuries surged through his body, and Chujiu's expression changed instantly.
Although I wanted to hold it back, the fishy taste that hit my throat was sudden, and I spat out a mouthful of blood.
After being severely injured before and fighting all the way, the injury was already very serious.
Chujiu quickly activated the spell to suppress it.
Nan Jing on the side looked panicked and hurriedly walked over to help treat the injury.
With the threat of the monster tide gone, the sense of crisis has temporarily receded.
Nan Jing’s brain just finished processing the information. While preparing medical tools, he gratefully said to Ji Xun: "Thank you, sir, for saving me and Chujiu just now. You can call me Nan Jing." . ”
Now she has figured it out. If the person in front of her was really malicious, they would all be in danger without doing anything.
Nature is not the enemy.
As she said that, she apologized again: "I'm sorry, it was because of that before."
She wanted to say something, but she seemed to feel betrayed by her companions, and she couldn't express her family shame. .
I was speechless for a moment.
Ji Xun didn't take it to heart at all. He smiled politely and introduced himself: "Ji Xun."
After this conversation, the three fell into a brief silence.
Nan Jing didn’t have time to say anything more, and was concentrating on treating the wounds on Chujiu’s back. She used scissors to cut off the clothes on Chujiu's back, revealing a terrifying wound the size of a fist and smoking black.
Only then did Ji Xun realize that his old friend's injury was more serious than what he saw.
Nanjing's method of treating the wound was obviously very professional. She did not pour the medicine roughly, but took out the surgical tools to debride it.
She first carefully cut off the pieces of rotten flesh that were smoking thickly from the wound.
After cutting, the wound was carefully cleaned with potion.
Then he took out another green card. After activation, the green six-pointed star on the card lit up with green light representing life, lingering around the wound.
At this time, she began to sew carefully.
The whole healing process involved cutting and suturing, and it was painful to watch.
But Chujiu remained silent, his eyes dim and dull.
Ji Xun watched the entire treatment process.
Chu Jiu's injuries were not just external injuries, but also erosion from the dark energy of the fire system.
It is very troublesome to deal with, and potions alone are not enough.
Without the suppression of the ice spell, the cut flesh and blood immediately burned into charcoal, and the strange dark fire energy corroded even the scalpel black.
This forced Nanjing to change several scalpels along the way.
Even Ji Xun was frightened looking at it.
If this strange injury had occurred to an ordinary person, he would have died suddenly on the spot.
Obviously, the person who plotted against Chujiu was well aware of her ice spell power and used restraint.
He is familiar with her abilities and can also sneak attack. The one who does it is a very trustworthy companion.
Ji Xun thought of something.
But he was not in a hurry to talk.
He closed his eyes and meditated, waiting for them to take care of the wound.
After a while, Nanjing sutured the wound.
The ice demon power on Chujiu gradually faded away.
The three of them had little communication.
Ji Xun and Chujiu were used to the way of getting along peacefully without speaking for a long time.
But Nan Jing always felt that the atmosphere was a bit too deserted, and she couldn't help but asked curiously: "Mr. Ji Xun, how did you prevent those skeletons from chasing us just now?"
Ji Xun I didn't want to explain more, but thinking that I might encounter trouble again later, I also said: "The skeleton monster's hatred is triggered by the fluctuation of sanity value. Don't be afraid, don't be excited, just try to suppress the fluctuation."
< br>"Huh? That's it?"
Nanjing has been to this maze before, how could he not know this.
But how can a normal person not have any mood swings at all?
“.”
Ji Xun didn’t want to explain the meaning, so naturally he didn’t mention the clown mask.
He can trust Chujiu, but that doesn’t mean he can trust other people.
Chu Jiu saw that Ji Xun didn't want to say more, so he interrupted his companion's curiosity at the right time and asked: "Mr. Ji Xun, what should we do now?"
Ji Xundao: "Wait."
Chujiu seemed to be used to this kind of off-the-wall thinking. He thought about it for a moment, then understood immediately and nodded: "Yes."
Nanjing listened. Chujiu interrupted, as if he suddenly forgot what he wanted to ask just now.
As soon as they heard the two talking about the next arrangements, they pricked up their ears.
I originally thought that this mysterious "Mr. Ji Xun" would have some detailed arrangements.
But listen, listen, the conversation between the two ended just after it started?
The psychic lady suddenly felt that her brain was not enough. She turned her head and looked at Chujiu, and then at Ji Xun. Her crystal eyes were as wide as copper bells, with big question marks written all over her face.
That’s it?
What are you waiting for?
Hey, hey, hey.
You should make it clear.
These two guys are like playing riddles, just stop talking?
Nan Jing's mind was still thinking about the question just now, and he didn't realize that he had been staring at it for a long time.
Ji Xun was dumbfounded by the intense curiosity for knowledge cast by the psychic lady.
The companion Chujiu seems a bit silly and cute.
But it’s not surprising to think about it.
Because I have worked with Chujiu before, we have a more or less tacit understanding.
It is normal for others to not be able to keep up with that kind of brain circuit.
Having just met the deputy doctor of Nanjing, he is not completely a drag, so Ji Xun said one more thing: "Wait until everyone in the Cao family is dead before taking action. Otherwise, they will be in the maze. Running around will bring many unexpected risks."
Hearing this, Nan Jing looked stunned and murmured to himself: "That's it."
The three fell into brief silence again.
At this moment, Ji Xun thought of something and asked: "By the way, Miss Nanjing, why are you in the maze? Did you bomb the train outside?"
He didn't know if this question had anything to do with the ambush, but he always felt like something was missing.
Ji Xun knew this and asked Chujiu, but she would answer.
But it may touch on topics that she doesn't want to mention, such as who was stabbed in the back.
And asking this companion of hers would obviously lead to more information.
Ji Xunzhen was curious as to why they were involved in the murder of Governor Cao's family.
Hearing the inquiry, Nan Jing glanced at Chujiu and saw that he didn't say anything, so he could just say it by default.
She responded directly: "No. The ones who bombed the train were another group of looters. We just heard that there was a batch of medical supplies on this train. We happened to need those things, so we came to take a look. . I didn’t expect to be involved.”
“Oh.”
Ji Xun suddenly realized when he heard this.
It turns out that they are the fourth force besides the Golden Oak, the Governor's Palace, and the Marauders.
The need for a large amount of medical supplies means that there is a big force behind them. But it was such a coincidence that he got involved and was plotted by his companions?
This made Ji Xun inevitably suspect that the person who wanted to kill Chujiu was one of the forces behind her, and was directly related to the mastermind behind the murder of Governor Cao.
Even if he is trapped in the maze, he is not at ease, and he has to arrange for a dead soldier to take action.
Ji Xun thought to himself: "So, Chujiu's identity is even more special."
Thoughts were racing in his mind, and the outline of the entire conspiracy was gradually becoming clear.
Now think about it.
The previous rumors in the city, such as the treasures held by the Cao family, the bounty on assassinations, etc., seemed to have been spread deliberately.
It was all for forcing Governor Cao Sihai to feel that his life was in danger in Innocence City.
Then there was a plan to sneak out of the city on a modified freight train.
It just so happened that the looters got the news that there was supplies on the train and blew up the tracks.
The fourth party force, Chujiu, also knew that there were medical supplies in the car, so they came to see the situation and disposed of them together.
One stone kills many birds.
Killing with a borrowed knife is played to the extreme.
There is no need for the people behind the scenes to show up in person during the whole process, and no soldiers or soldiers are even needed.
Only relying on a few wrong messages to involve several forces, this method can be said to be brilliant.
Ji Xun also became interested.
Just the aftermath of the incident will definitely kill many people in Sinless City.
And he always felt that the assassination of Governor Cao Sihai seemed to be the beginning of this storm.
But this has nothing to do with Ji Xun.
He likes to be lively.
But I prefer to hide in the dark and watch other people’s excitement.
To have a master like Chujiu, the background of the "fourth party force" is not simple.
Ji Xun had no idea of trying to pry into the identities of Chujiu and Chujiu.
Discourteous and unnecessary.
As long as you are not an enemy, it doesn’t matter what you are.
At this time, Chujiu was also afraid that his silly companion said something he shouldn't have said, so he took the initiative to ask: "Mr. Ji Xun, did you just say that you met the [Secret Keeper] before? "
Ji Xun nodded: "Yes."
At this statement, both Chujiu and Nanjing cast curious glances, "What level of disaster is that? Can it be solved?"
When it comes to monsters, Ji Xun thought of the previous glimpse, and his heart The feeling that makes the soul tremble is still clear.
"It's very difficult."
He frowned slightly and said: "S-level disasters are immortal and there are quite a lot of them. Don't consider a head-on collision unless necessary."
“.”
After hearing this, Chujiu's expression immediately became serious.
She is well aware of the "troublesome" weight of this.
Back in Space 407, none of those terrifying A-level disasters made Ji Xun say a tricky adjective.
But now, he said it.
In other words, this disaster is absolutely invincible.
Chu Jiu looked over again: "So?"
Ji Xun understood what she asked and replied: "Solve the puzzle."
"Yeah."
Chu Jiu Jiu Jing's eyes turned and she understood what he said.
The conversation between the two ended in just a few words.
Nan Jing, who was listening with his ears pricked up, his expression froze again: gone again?
Obviously, this psychic lady’s brain circuit is not as fast as Chujiu, and she does not have that kind of tacit understanding.
When she heard [The Secret Keeper], she felt that she had grasped the key point.
Hmm!
This time I must listen to the information carefully.
Analyze analyze.
Think again about how to solve the maze based on the clues.
However, I never thought that before I heard a few words, it was gone again!
The expressions under the Nanjing gas mask were extremely rich at the moment.
She glanced at Chujiu, then glanced at the guy with the same zombie expression as herself, and murmured in her heart: Can't you say a few more words?
The key is.
I don’t understand!
Nan Jing felt that if he asked, he would look stupid.
She could only ask something else quietly: "Sister Chujiu, how do you know each other?"
She and Chujiu are the closest friends, but they have never met Ji. Xun, I haven't heard her say that, which is very strange.
Like it came out of nowhere.
“This”
Chu Jiu wanted to explain.
But when the words reached his mouth, he stopped again.
The matter of 407 is very sensitive, and even the best friend cannot talk about it.
After all, this matter not only concerns herself, but also the life and death of others.
Ji Xun was even less interested in talking about this topic and had no intention of paying attention to it.
But since the two of them didn't speak, the atmosphere became very subtle.
Looking at Nan Jing’s increasingly weird eyes, Chujiu finally couldn’t help but say: “Mr. Ji Xun is a trustworthy friend. He saved my life.”
"Oh?"
After listening to Nan Jing, he actually calmed down a lot.
But I couldn’t help but be curious.
If I read it correctly, the person in front of me is probably an apprentice of a spell card master?
What ability does he have to save Chujiu?
Ji Xun didn't want to talk at first, but after hearing Chujiu's words, he shook his head slightly: "Miss Chujiu is too polite."
The reason why he chose to save people just now was not just because of the function of Chujiu's "humanoid radar".
More importantly, return her favor within your ability.
Ji Xun Neng shot someone's head off without any hesitation in his heart, and was not a good person at all.
But he is not unreasonable either.
Once a favor is stained, it doesn’t mean that the debt will be cleared once it is paid back.
Just like borrowing money, even if the money is paid back, the favor is still there.
Not to mention that in the 407 space, there is no way to survive without Chu Jiu Ji Xun.
Even after he came out, without Chujiu’s support, he would not have survived until now.
This life-saving kindness is not small.
But after speaking, Ji Xun didn’t say much more.
He didn't want to be pretentious about this kind of thing, and turned to the serious matter: "By the way, Miss Chujiu, is the information found in the safe still with you?"
"Yes. ”
Chujiu knew very well that the other party must need this thing when he asked.
After saying that, she took out a stack of information.
Ji Xun was not too polite. He took the information, lit the lamp, and sat down to read through it.
While he had nothing to do now, he would also see if he could translate some of it.
After all, judging from the information obtained from the previous adventurer's diary, it seems that if you want to leave this maze, you must crack a secret room with ancient Talun texts.
It is also beneficial to get familiar with it early.
Seeing him flipping through the classics like this, Chujiu didn't ask him what he wanted to do.
In the previous collaboration with 407, Ji Xun made some preparations more than once that were incomprehensible at first.
But the result is that every time it is a key means to break the situation.
However, although she didn't ask much, she was really curious in her heart, what is the use of these information?
Also, this is ancient Talun text. Not many of the polymaths in Dragon City are proficient in it. Can he understand it?
Nan Jing, who has a straightforward temperament, did not think about it that much. She glanced at the densely packed ancient characters on the file and asked directly: "Mr. Ji Xun, are you a card disciple of the 'Wisdom Sequence'?"
“No.”
Ji Xun didn't look up and responded casually.
He continued to look through the information, trying his best to recall the contents he had translated in the 407 space.
Hearing this, Nan Jing was surprised and said: "Ah, can you understand these ancient texts?"
Ji Xun shook his head decisively: "I can't understand."
"? ?”
Hearing this, Nan Jing's eyes were obviously stunned for three seconds.
Even Chujiu cast a very surprised look.
Although she has no doubt about Ji Xun's decryption ability, what does it mean that she is still reading the data when she cannot understand it at all?
Nan Jing couldn't help but be curious, and asked directly: "What are you?"
Ji Xun didn't hide anything, and said calmly: "I'm learning now."
Nanjing: "."
Chujiu: "."
Hearing this, the corners of the two women's eyes twitched inexplicably.
I thought he knew Talungu script before.
At least understand a little bit.
But this temporary study seems unreliable no matter how you look at it, okay?
Chu Jiu was surprised for a moment and understood something.
Maybe you want to recall the content of the original enlightenment reminder and combine it to translate the ancient text?
This seems impossible, right?
But Chujiu had an inexplicable feeling that if others could not do it, this guy might be able to do it.
She shook off those scattered thoughts. Since she had no idea of breaking the situation, she would leave this kind of thing to those who were capable.
Chu Jiu closed his eyes and fell into meditation.
As for the psychic lady, her eyes were deeply suspicious.
But Ji Xun ignored her meaning and studied the information carefully. With his photographic memory, he quickly became immersed in it.
On the ninth day of the lunar month, the two girls didn’t bother them anymore.
In a blink of an eye, the three of them stayed in the maze for three full days.
Thanks to ‘Sima Grand Marshal’ 2000, ‘GT Yuhun’ 500, ‘Dr.wy’ 400, ‘2019021583557457’ for their reward support, thank you.
