Doomsday Wonderland

Chapter 2261 One Of The Most Common Secrets

If you want to say why, there is naturally only one reason.

When Zhang Peng heard that suggestion, to his own surprise, he didn't feel panic, hesitation or guilt at all. This made him think about it later, and he was also secretly surprised.

Is it because she has such good conditions, but she always looks ignorant and ungrateful? It's a pity to put those abilities, items and money on such a foolish woman. It's not like he hasn't thought about it before, if only those things belonged to him.

Or, was it because she sternly and resolutely rejected his overtures at first? She thought she looked like a goddess, which was ridiculous, at best, she was only average; after rejecting, she would put on a regretful and apologetic look, saying that she would rather be friends with him—what Zhang Peng lacked was friend? He could tell at a glance that this was just to hang him. He still doesn't understand this woman's method?

What really bored Zhang Peng was probably after she lost her [Green Thumb] ability, she started to go crazy, always saying that she had an impression, that she knew who stole her ability, and wanted to Zhang Peng accompanied her to discover the truth.

Is he stupid? Have a good time, but?

All day long, the arresters said that Xianglin's wife was like "old woman" and "old woman" all over her mouth, and people wanted to slap her when they saw her, so that she could look like a person.

Recently, that fantasy has been strengthened again, adding a master behind the old woman, saying that the old woman also obeys his orders; it is ridiculous, if there is such a powerful person, she will be satisfied if she can escape alive, and want Zhang Peng to die together?

until that night.

Zhang Peng remembered very clearly that when the rice seedlings were about to be harvested, he and the little green crane stayed in the village for the night, each in a room. In the middle of the night, somehow, he was awakened by a piece of moonlight.

He got up in a daze, trying to relieve himself; as soon as he sat up, he saw an old woman with a sagging face sitting at the end of his bed, with a pair of triangular eyes shining like beetle shells in the dark night.

"I was so scared that I almost peed my pants. At that moment, I thought my life was not long..." Zhang Peng murmured, looking straight past Lin Sanjiu and Ji Shanqing, to the endless rice seedling fields Beyond the land, on the invisible village. "There really is an old woman, the little green crane didn't lie..."

"I will never forget what she told me." Zhang Peng continued.

Next, the old woman opened her loose and wrinkled lips.

"If you kill the person I appoint," her hoarse and dry voice sounded like it came from a corpse at night. Accompanied by her voice, a piece of faint silver text appeared in the dark night; the old woman did not even look at it, and swiped her hand across the text. "Then, you will inherit her combat strength, abilities, items, physical fitness... Even IQ can be converted into numbers and added to your IQ."

Zhang Peng didn't even ask who she wanted to kill, because Little Green Crane said all day long that he remembered an old woman, and she must have stolen the [Green Thumb].

"It's just that I have one condition." The old woman smiled slowly and said, "You have to make everyone think that she is gradually getting more and more crazy, and finally lost her mind before she died."

There's nothing wrong with that, she's giving off a paranoid look now.

"That's why I killed her, because after killing her, all the benefits will be inherited by me. The old woman didn't lie."

After Zhang Peng finished speaking, he thought about it a little bit, and felt that he was a little confiscated, and described a lot of details that others didn't ask; he looked at the two people a little uneasy, and found that the tall man didn't seem to be very interested in what he said. Interested, he glanced at the paper and Son of Karma, as if he didn't listen to much at all.

The other girl frowned lightly, with a very humble and noble look, but it seemed that she cared a lot about what she said.

Zhang Peng felt more relieved - it seemed that he had been worrying too much in the past year. Where is this? This is the end of the world! Killing a person is nothing, every day there are robbers for a little something outside of the body, he can eat up a person like this, who can't hurry up and seize the opportunity?

Crows are black all over the world, who is qualified to say he is wrong? It's the same for anyone else, he also wants to survive better. In the past, he was afraid that people would know, so it was unnecessary.

Others know, envy is too late.

"That's not right," the girl frowned, looking carefully at the words on the paper, "Although it's not written here... But if that old woman is really that powerful, why didn't she kill herself? Why did she borrow your hand?"

This is the second question, right?

Zhang Pengzhi smiled complacently, and replied: "I also asked that old woman this question. Do you know what she said? She told me that it is not difficult to make a person crazy or dead. The hard part is, I need a good friend who has a good enough relationship with Little Green Crane and is trustworthy enough to stand up and prove that she has gone crazy long ago, so what she said has always been nonsense and cannot be trusted. Such a person, the old woman can't create one out of thin air , isn’t it just me?”

The girl tilted her head, as if she wanted to ask "you?" but didn't.

"There used to be a lot of people who farmed and were in charge of management around here. Everyone knows that I am her good friend and I am always there for her." Zhang Peng still couldn't help but say the word "friend" now. That bit of resentment. "There are girls who say what am I... oh, what's a 'loyal dog boy'."

He couldn't help but reached out and touched his face; after a long time, he mentioned these words again, which made him worry that his face was distorted again.

"...that's right," the Son of Karma announced.

"Then... the second question," the girl just started, Zhang Peng immediately interrupted her. "Is it the third one?"

The Son of Karma was silent and said, "Yes, the third."

Obviously, the girl made a mistake and finished asking the second question without much thought. She frowned, as if she was thinking about how to mislead him about the question and make him answer wrongly - but this secret is Zhang Peng's own, how could he answer wrongly?

"The little green crane said something about incapacity and the old woman. Do you remember what she said specifically?" the girl asked, looking at the paper.

Zhang Peng was taken aback, he didn't expect her to make a move here. Indeed, if he wanted to talk about what he did, then he remembered it very clearly, but the woman was crazy all day long and kept talking, and he didn't listen to many words at all, so it was not easy to answer in detail.

"Well, she said that she lost her self-awareness for a while... It was true that she didn't know where she went for a while. I thought she lied to me and told a fake teleportation time."

While recalling what Little Green Crane said back then, Zhang Peng used other irrelevant things to delay time, but fortunately, including Karma's son, no one urged him to hurry up and get to the point.

"After she came back, she said... She said that her ability was transferred by others, and she lost it. At that time, she was studying how to generate consciousness, and there happened to be a practice method that allowed her to experience it even without consciousness. , I also have a vague impression of my own situation..."

Those things that he thought he hadn't listened to at all, and had long forgotten, gradually surfaced in his mind.

"She said that during that period of disappearance, it seemed that her body was no longer her own, and she was controlled by others, and she couldn't help herself in doing anything."

Zhang Peng remembered this because he was very sure after hearing it at that time that the little green crane had definitely been put to sleep. "Her most famous ability is [Green Thumb], which is indeed rare and powerful, so many people liked to ask her to speed up the growth of crops. During that time, she vaguely remembered seeing an old woman once and used it a few times. [Green Thumb], it seems that there are some evolutionaries who are in the same situation as her... Then, [Green Thumb] was taken away from her."

He couldn't remember any more, including this passage, and Zhang Peng didn't know if he remembered anything wrong. He glanced apprehensively, and found that the son of Karma slowly raised a hand and said, "...that's right."

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then...the last question." The girl seemed to know that Zhang Peng's victory was inevitable, so she simply rubbed the paper and asked, "You said that people from all walks of life are begging you to do things, and you can't get enough work , but still willing to spend a lot of time patrolling here... It may not be that the patrol wages are particularly high, right? Is it related to you killing the little green crane here? Why do you keep coming back here?"

Although they asked three sentences, they meant the same thing. After answering this question, he will be able to get one of the three special items just now. If he thinks about it a bit more, he might be able to take his stuff from his stash too... as long as he deliberately asks people to answer incorrectly, right?

"Because her body is here," Zhang Peng slipped out of his mouth while thinking about how to ask a misleading question: "It was buried in that village. Every time she rots, I can feel it." The potential value in her body, physical fitness and other things flow into my body a little bit. The old woman didn't say anything, so the process is so long, **** it."

"Oh."

The tall woman who had been silent all this time suddenly put down the paper in her hand. She raised her eyes, and there was a cool light in those amber pupils.

Zhang Peng raised his head and found that the two women and Karma's son were looking at him motionless.

The night was still falling, but there seemed to be some changes in the night wind, and he couldn't hear the night cicadas singing.

What is a perfect closed loop of death? Under the Taliban, women cannot see male doctors, and because women cannot go to school or work, there are no female doctors.
