Chapter 91 Death Crisis
Lu Jiu waited in the carriage for a few minutes before leaving the black cat back soon.
But this time, I did not come in from the door of the private room, but fell directly from the top of the carriage in the state I had when I was passing through the wall.
Lu Jiu noticed that its eyes had changed into different pupils at this time.
Another soul has appeared?
"I've killed that mechanical puppet, can we talk now?"
Lu Jiu took the initiative to speak and observed the expression of the cat with strange eyes...Okay, this is impossible to observe at all.
In order to facilitate distinction, he decided to name the cat's two states, different pupils and blue eyes.
"Heart, take it out."
The rough and cold tone is indeed a bit different from last night.
"It took me a lot of effort to get it. I was almost entangled by it at that time. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have become the second puppet now. You should know its special nature. It must have been nearby before, so why didn't you remind me?"
Lu Jiu took out the cloth bag from his backpack and put it on the table, deliberately mentioning the particularity of his heart, waiting for the cat with strange eyes to answer.
"If you don't even have this vigilance, you don't deserve to work with me."
After looking at the undulating surface of the cloth bag, the black cat did not mention the situation at that time.
"cooperate?"
Lu Jiu showed a surprised expression just right, and then said,
"I just want to know where exactly my body was sent a few days ago."
"Raising your hand to touch the position where the back of your neck and your shoulders are intertwined."
There was no intention to answer Lu Jiu's question at all, and the cat just continued his previous words.
It comes from the same origin, whether it is the cat with a different eye or the previous blue-eyed cat, the habit of talking to oneself has never changed.
Lu Jiu couldn't refuse yet, so he had to raise his hand to touch the position he was talking to him.
"Then what?"
Lu Jiu didn't feel anything was wrong.
"Press down hard."
"What's the point of doing this...well!"
The moment the knuckles pressed the flesh and pressed the spine, a severe pain spread throughout the body. Even Lu Jiu couldn't suppress himself and his face turned pale.
The pain came quickly and disappeared quickly. After only a few seconds, Lu Jiu returned to normal again. He raised his head and stared at the cat with a strange pupil in front of him, and asked in a muffled voice: "Why is this happening?"
From waking up at home to now, Lu Jiu himself didn't know that there was such a fatal "weakness" on the back of the neck of this body!
"What you just touched is the reason why you called 'resurrection', but in my opinion, it is more appropriate to use 'restart'. Unintentional zombies are worthy of being called human?"
The cat with a strange pupil looked at Lu Jiu indifferently, and the words that followed made Lu Jiu even more shocked.
"You are not the original owner of this body at all, you are just a lonely ghost who happened to find the host."
The moment the cat's words fell, Lu Jiu felt a buzzing sound in his brain.
The palm of the table clasped the impermanence shotgun that was placed aside in advance, and some negative thoughts grew wildly in my mind.
Indeed, the resurrection of the predecessor and the alienation of the body can be said to be the secret that Lu Jiu cares very much about, but the most important secret that must not be mentioned to outsiders is undoubtedly his identity as a time traveler.
Now that it was suddenly exposed, Lu Jiu's inner fear and urgency can be imagined. Fortunately, I had a conversation with Qingyan Cat last night, and I was prepared for hearing some information that surprised me today. Only then could I barely stabilize my mentality and not immediately make extraordinary moves.
When reason returns, Lu Jiu quickly realizes that the cat's words should have something else. He says he is a lonely ghost, and this word should not refer to his identity as a time traveler. Combined with the context of the previous sentence, it is very likely that he is talking about the experiment of "resurrecting" or "resurrecting a corpse".
The predecessor died long enough that his soul must have disappeared, otherwise his soul would not be able to occupy this body... Could this be one of the conditions for resurrection?
Lu Jiu didn't say anything anymore. Even though his heart was already overturned, he chose to remain silent, forcing himself to remain calm, and listened to the cat who had strange pupils to continue talking.
"I don't care who you are, nor do I have any interest in knowing your past. I just want you to know that you owe me two lives. In addition, I have the most important secret in my hand and also understand what you want most now. And under the premise that I am willing to cooperate with you, you are not qualified to refuse my request."
He told everything he knew about Lu Jiu in a plain tone, and the cat with a strange eyes seemed to be prepared for the arrival of this day.
Wow ~
After breathing a sigh of relief, Lu Jiu narrowed his eyes half-squinted and let go of the impermanence shotgun in his hand.
In fact, just now, he considered to directly subdue the cat with a strange-eyed eyes. As long as it can succeed, he might be able to get what he wants in a more direct way.
However, the risk of doing so is too great. The current situation has obviously not deteriorated to the point where it is impossible to resolve by violence. After thinking about it carefully, he still chose to give up this tempting idea.
"I know how to reverse your current state, which does not guarantee success rate, but gives you a chance to try to change before this body begins to collapse."
As if he had not seen Lu Jiu's little movements, the cat with strange eyes continued to speak.
"Wait, collapse?"
Lu Jiu sensitively sensed the key to the cat's words.
"If that experiment could really allow a lonely soul to obtain a brand new body and without any sequelae, do you think you are qualified to be selected as the subject?"
"Today is June 27th. The day I rescued you is June 18th. You have less than a month left... To be precise, by mid-July, you will find that your physical strength is constantly weakening, followed by the loss of five senses, and finally become a complete corpse. You will also leave your body again and become a masterless lonely soul. At that time, you will not have a second chance to make a choice!"
"I have a way to get your body back to normal, of course, the odds are extremely low, but this is your only choice to survive."
"When you return to Qingding City, I will give you a task and complete it, and you will see my sincerity."
Regardless of Lu Jiu's expression changes, the cat with a strange pupil left the box after saying that, leaving the former alone in the seat and speechless.
The "clang~" sound of the train traveling outside the window mixed with the noise in the car rushed into Lu Jiu's mind, disturbing all the thoughts in his mind.
Lu Jiu suddenly understood why the words before the Qingyan Cat left were so fearless.
