[75] I treat you as a brother

"All the evidence clues are here." A thick stack of books was thrown on the table in front of everyone, Luan Su sat down in one of the seats, glanced at the few people in front of him, "I can also provide relevant witnesses " As she spoke, she said to a young monk outside the door, "Little master, please help me bring the man here."

Outside the squatter room of Qiuliang Temple, a young monk saluted silently, turned and left.Come back after a while, followed by several people.

Luan Su: "Let them in."

Several people in different clothes were led in and lined up one by one.

Luan Su said to Zhan Zhao: "You can ask these people whatever you want. Everything they say is true."

Zhan Zhao didn't ask.He looked at Luan Su quietly for a moment, and said: "Give them a pen and paper, let them write down their testimony, and hand it over to the government together with these evidences."

After everyone was taken down one by one, Luan Su asked, "Are you willing to believe me?"

"You don't have the need to tell such a lie." Zhan Zhao said, "If you really want to fake it, I can tell it at a glance."

Luan Su smiled: "Since that's the case, can we talk about the business?"

Zhan Zhao raised his legs and changed into a comfortable position: "Say it."

Luan Su: "I've already gotten to the bottom of it with you. I came back from the next few years. You should have guessed my true identity."

Zhan Zhao didn't say a word, obviously he still had doubts about this matter.

Luan Su thought for a while, and untied a jade tablet from his waist.

It was a jade plate the size of a waist card, with "Tianxi Two Years, Ruoxu" engraved on the front, and when it was turned over, there were densely packed small characters on the back.

He had seen this jade tablet before, and Bai Yutang showed it to him.

Zhan Zhao subconsciously looked at Bai Yutang.

Luan Su: "During the second year of Tianxi, the first emperor made a fortune-telling calculation and calculated the catastrophe. He saw a group of hat monsters of unknown origin sneaking into our country, and took advantage of people's unpreparedness, leaving behind several roads leading to unknown spaces. Passage, and then disguised, mixed among the people. When they get the full trust of the people, they will deceive them to the passage, push them into the passage. Whenever someone passes along the passage, the hat monster can get a boost of power, Just like... those monsters who eat people and practice in the storybook! They keep pushing people into the tunnel, constantly improving themselves, and accumulating strength until they are strong enough to completely swallow up our country..."

Luan Su: "These contents were written by the first emperor himself, with the first emperor's private seal on it, and were locked on the Ruoxu Pavilion of the Yumen with ingenious mechanisms. And this jade tablet in my hand is to unlock The key to the organ."

Zhan Zhao rubbed the pattern of the jade tablet with his fingertips for a moment, then put it down lightly: "The 'channel' you mentioned, but the 'spring' mentioned above?"

Luan Su said: "Exactly."

Luan Su: "Our people call this channel 'Xuanquan', with the spring as the entrance. After years of research and investigation, our people found that this channel has a special ability that can distort time."

Seeing everyone frowning, she seemed puzzled, so she turned over the empty teacups at hand.

"This represents our current time." Luan Su picked up the cup on the left and shook it, put it aside, then picked up an empty cup on the right, "This represents the time I originally lived in."

"The two times are moving forward according to their own trajectories, and there is no intersection between them."

Luan Su pressed the two empty cups and let them move forward slowly.

"And the 'hanging spring' I just mentioned," Luan Su stopped both hands, picked up the teapot from the side, poured some water on the table, the water stains flowed, and soon flowed into the bottom of the two empty cups, "Connecting" the two cups, "like the puddle of water in the middle of the two cups, can create a cross point between the two times, so that people on this timeline," she pointed to the The cup, "can enter the space on the side through the channel in the middle. And vice versa."

"The opening and teleportation of the channel has its own rules. Even if we have the Xuanquan, we can't pass through it at will." Luan Su stopped holding the hand holding the teacup, looked up at the crowd, "Some places will have people for no reason. Disappear, or, let me put it another way, some people's 'existence' will be erased inexplicably." She paused, looked at Liu Qing, "You should have a map there."

Liu Qing looked at Bai Yutang, and Bai Yutang took out the map he had given him back then, spread it out, and put it on the table.

Luan Su pointed to the marked places: "The 'existence' of a person will not be eliminated for no reason. Elimination means that someone broke the rules and disturbed the order of the two times."

Liu Qing subconsciously asked: "What are the rules?"

Luansu looked at him, but didn't answer right away.

After a while, she sighed softly and said, "Now that you see me and talk to me here, I have already broken the rules."

Liu Qing scratched her head: "What do you mean?"

"People in two times cannot meet each other." Zhan Zhao probably understood, and explained for him, "Two times are two independent entities that have nothing to do with each other. It's like... two people who don't know each other, they separate At both ends of the north and the south, each has its own life. From birth to death, they will meet different people and experience different things, but there is no relationship between the two. I know that there is each other's existence. But if one of them breaks this relationship through some means during the survival period, so that two people who did not know each other forcibly meet each other and know each other's existence, it is considered a violation of the rules——I understand Right?"

Luan Su said: "That's it."

Liu Qing bit her lip, rolled her eyes, and tried her best to digest what Zhan Zhao said.

Bai Yutang said, "What will happen if you break the rules?"

Luan Su smiled bitterly: "People on two timelines are not allowed to live on the same timeline. If I stay in your time, then the original 'I' in this time can only be replace."

Liu Qing finally understood: "So you broke the rules, the original 'you' no longer exists at this time?"

Luan Su nodded.

Liu Qing's expression changed: "Then if you go back in the future..."

"I can't go back." Luan Su said, "In my original time, our mission failed, and nearly a hundred people in Ruoxu Pavilion were wiped out, and it was me..." Her voice trembled slightly, as if choked, " If it wasn't for the three of you who gave up their lives to protect me and forcefully pushed me into the spring, I'm afraid I would be in trouble now."

As soon as these words came out, the three of them fell silent.

"I'm back this time," Luan Su closed his eyes and opened them again, "Aside from restarting the mission, my biggest wish is to help you avoid all dangers and save your lives."

She said: "I have already confirmed that as long as we can avoid the danger this time, complete the task, and destroy the passage, the two times may overlap. Those who were erased because the rules were broken, also said Might not be able to come back.”

"How credible are those words just now?"

After dinner in the evening, Luansu asked someone to prepare a guest room for them.

Today's event, the amount of information is a bit too large, and everything is incredible.

Even Zhan Zhao is still a little confused.

"I can't say how credible it is." Zhan Zhao frowned, "But such a mess, I don't think she can make it up."

Bai Yutang held the teacups in their hands and slowly brought them closer together: "Two times can travel through the passage... Is this kind of thing really possible?"

Zhan Zhao looked at the teacup in his hand, then looked up at his face, and suddenly said ominously, "You're not playing around with something, are you?"

Bai Yutang was staring at one place in a daze, but when he heard Zhan Zhao's words, he raised his eyes and smiled at him: "What can I come up with?"

"...not the best fight."

For a moment just now, he felt that Bai Yutang wanted to find the spring, go back to the past, replace his original self, and meet his elder brother.

"I hope I'm overthinking." Zhan Zhao thought to himself.

After a busy day, in the middle of the night, the two took off their outer shirts and lay side by side on the small bed in the guest room.

Compared with the beds in the inn, the beds in Qiuliang Temple are obviously much narrower.

It would be more than enough for one person to lie down, but it would be a bit crowded if two tall men were together.

Bai Yutang, who was lying on the outside, lay on his back for a while. It was really uncomfortable to be crowded, so he had to curl up his legs and turned sideways in aggrieved manner.

"Is it uncomfortable to lie on?" Although Zhan Zhao didn't think the hard bed was very comfortable, he was used to it casually in the past, and he could bear this little bit of hardship. Bai Yutang was different. He was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child. Unbearable.

Zhan Zhao thought for a while, lifted the quilt and got up.

Bai Yutang hurriedly sat up, "What are you doing?"

"This bed is too narrow." Zhan Zhao said, "I'll sleep on the floor."

"What on the ground?" Bai Yutang wrapped his arms around his waist and pushed him back, "It's cold on the ground, just for one night, I can make do with it."

"Is it okay?" Zhan Zhao expressed doubts, thought about it, and sat up again.

"What are you doing?" Bai Yutang also stood up again, "I can really do it."

Now Zhan Zhao didn't say much, pushed him off the bed, and went straight out.

Bai Yutang didn't know where he was going, so he subconsciously wanted to follow.

Zhan Zhao: "I'll be right back, obediently wait for me here."

Zhan Zhao did come back soon, with a quilt in his arms when he came back.

Bai Yutang frowned immediately: "I really don't care."

However, Zhan Zhao didn't spread the newly brought quilt on the floor, but added another layer on top of the original quilt.

"Okay." Zhan Zhao rubbed Bai Yutang's head, took off his shoes and went up first, then patted the place beside him, and said to Bai Yutang who was standing stupidly, "Come on."

Only then did Bai Yutang come to his senses, and he took off his shoes and climbed up again.

"The bed is so narrow that I can't save my brother," Zhan Zhao said, "An extra bed will make it a little more comfortable."

Bai Yutang lay beside Zhan Zhao, feeling that his body was indeed much softer.

"Actually, you don't need to go find the quilt." Bai Yutang turned sideways, crossed his arms, and hugged his waist, "It's quite soft to hold you to sleep."

Zhan Zhao also lay down on his side, and leaned close to him: "I'm a man, how can I be soft..."

The distance between the two was very close. When Zhan Zhao spoke, hot air swept over Bai Yutang's neck and ears, and his Adam's apple slipped, and his eyelids slowly lifted: "Isn't it soft? Then give me a touch."
