Chapter 57: There are still experts (two in one)

Shen Ye sighed deeply, and a hint of complexity appeared on his face, which had become much gentler.

The light from the sky fell on his long hair, making him look cold and lonely.

"This matter... is a long story."

Jiang Jianxin looked at the dark sky outside and the sun that was already showing its edge beside the distant mountains.

She yawned first, stretched out her hand, and said in a voice filled with weariness:

"Then stop now and let me recharge my battery first."

Before she finished speaking, she had already rolled into the bed wrapped in a black and gray quilt. Before going to sleep, she did not forget to unsheathe the Tangguang Sword and insert it beside her to keep watch over her.

The three-foot-long sword hung beside the pillow, shining with light, making the girl's sleeping face flicker.

"Lord Sage?"

When Shen Ye looked at her in surprise again, the girl in white was already lying on the bed, breathing evenly.

"Om——"

The Tangguang Sword flew from beside his pillow with a cold sword aura in front of him, making a low humming sound, signaling Shen Ye not to speak anymore.

The long-haired girl sat dejectedly beside the bed, huddled beside it for a while in grievance, and silently held the silver-white sword at her waist in her arms.

That night passed without any dreams.

At noon the next day, when the hot sunlight penetrated the dusty lounge window, the aroma of the boxed lunch happened to spread over the top of Jiang Jianxin's head, who had just woken up.

She opened her eyes hazily and first smelled the aroma of rice in the air.

Because it was noon and everyone in the rest area was eating, there were people coming in and out of the gate frequently. There were many people coming to the rest area to rest at noon. Bright sunlight poured out from the crack in the door from time to time, and then was closed heavily.

Jiang Jianxin rubbed his eyes, yawned, and sat up, watching the Tangguang Sword hovering and circling around him, guarding her diligently.

Shen Ye was driven aside by Tang Guangjian. His long hair hung on the ground. He was leaning against the wall, holding his big knife and chewing a white steamed bun.

The young man couldn't see anything and didn't know that Jiang Jianxin had woken up.

It was the latter who greeted lazily first:

"Good morning, Shen Ye."

The long-haired girl turned her head, and Jiang Jianxin realized that Shen Ye's curvy figure that he had seen last night was gone.

Instead, there were two large white flour buns, one half eaten and the other still uneaten.

Hearing Jiang Jianxin greet him, Shen Ye turned his head and said gently:

"Good afternoon, sage."

Jiang Jianxin glanced at the high sun, and the sound of cicadas chirping was thickly filling the window lattice.

She smiled awkwardly and took out a large piece of compressed biscuits from the storage watch.

Just as he started to chew it, he saw Shen Ye turning around.

Although he couldn't see, he could roughly guess what Jiang Jianxin was eating from the sound that was similar to chewing stone.

He frowned distressedly:

"My Lord, are you eating compressed biscuits?"

Seeing him frown, Jiang Jianxin thought he was complaining that she was too poor for eating compressed biscuits, so she casually replied:

"Yeah, you also eat steamed buns."

Shen Ye touched the steamed bun in his hand, pursed his lips, and was about to say something when Jiang Jianxin patted his shoulder and interrupted him:
"Speaking of which, how did you become like this? I was too sleepy last night and didn't finish listening. Tell me now."

Shen Ye was stunned and swallowed the explanation that was on the tip of his tongue.

He nodded, put down the steamed bun in his hand and said:

"This story begins when we first separated."

"At that time, the asylum sent a group of flying fish to catch me. They were originally heading in my direction, but for some reason they suddenly changed direction and flew the other way."

Jiang Jianxin smiled knowingly when he heard this.

She was familiar with this matter. It was she who had a sudden inspiration and used Chen Tong's super long-range talent [Sun and Moon Bow] to lure the tiger away from the mountain and attract the attention of the asylum.

Shen Ye didn't know that the person who helped him was right in front of him. His long hair covered his lifeless eyes. The young man continued to speak:

"...While they were looking in the wrong direction, I took out the special medicine that could change my gender, consumed it, and then hid in the woods."

"The people in the asylum know me very well. It's precisely because they know me that they assume that as the renowned warrior 'Black King', I would have escaped with my own legs. Even if I was a little cunning, I could only use darkness to conceal my escape."

“But they didn’t expect…”

At this point, the long-haired beautiful girl in front of him revealed an innocent and fairy-like smile:
"I'm bold enough to just change my gender and escape in the dark."

"Without the characteristic of being a pursuer, and with the advantages of being far away and far away... even a group of doctors from the asylum wouldn't be able to do anything to me."

Jiang Jianxin touched his chin and thought:

"So, the drugs are what made you like this, and you can change back later?"

Shen Ye nodded and said:

"This special medicine only lasts for a month, and even the effect on your figure ends in three days."

He pointed to the steamed bun in his hand and said:
"Because it's been three days, in order to maintain my appearance and find you safely, I had to buy two steamed buns to fill myself up."

Jiang Jianxin nodded. No wonder she thought Shen Ye had such an impressive figure last night. It was all thanks to Mantou.

She lowered her head and carefully reviewed Shen Ye's escape process, and discovered a detail:
"Do you have any special medicine that can change your gender?"

She remembered that when she first met Shen Ye, he was very poor and she had never heard that he had any good things on him.

Shen Ye nodded and admitted without hesitation:

"I don't have anything else, but there are a bunch of special medicines in the storage space. I stole them when I escaped from the asylum."

"Stealed?"

Jiang Jianxin asked.

I just met Xie Yan, a professional thief, but I didn’t expect that there would be a new thief, who is an old acquaintance.

Although I knew that morals would decline and people's hearts would change after the end of the world, I didn't expect that the zero-yuan shopping craze would start so soon.

Seeing her curiosity, Shen Ye spoke in more detail:
"When I first escaped from the blind master's control, I only had a big knife on me. Considering that I would need to survive after escaping, I needed to steal some things and sell them to support my life."

"I interact most with doctors, so I know exactly where their medicine cabinets are. The medicines in their medicine cabinets are very valuable, and selling them can support my life."

"So, I'm going to steal a physician's."

Because the point was being made, Shen Ye straightened up, and Jiang Jianxin also straightened up.

Speaking of doctors, she remembered a vague figure, but it seemed impossible.

While she was secretly pondering, Shen Ye had already slowly given the answer:

"Just like Lin Xin'an knew I'd escaped, I also knew he was out there doing something and hadn't been back to the First Mental Hospital in a long time." "Of course, it's much easier to steal a doctor who's not in the hospital than one who is."

For some reason, Jiang Jianxin couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

Shen Ye spoke very slowly, so she continued:

"So you stole his medicine box on a dark and stormy night."

"And then you ran out again with the medicine box."

Shen Ye nodded and added:
"That's about it, but the doctor's medicine box is divided into several layers. I stole everything I could and put it in my storage space."

"When the alarm in the medicine box sounded, I also used the Dark Formation to run out."

As if remembering something, Shen Ye moved uneasily, and with his hand he touched his long hair that had run to the front, and said embarrassedly:

"Actually, when I first met Doctor Lin at the supermarket, I felt a little guilty."

When Jiang Jianxin and Lin Xin'an just arrived at the supermarket, he recognized them from a distance by their voices.

But he just turned his head slightly and remained leaning against the wall without moving.

Because the young man in the blue and white hospital gown was touching his bulging pockets and thinking about Lin Xinan's empty medicine box - he was sweating profusely and felt at a loss.

Originally, he was somewhat escaping from reality and was unwilling to meet Lin Xinan face to face.

But because Jiang Jianxin was there, he had to follow.

Just as he was hiding in the shadows at the second-floor stairwell, anxiously thinking about what to do, the sharp-eyed Lin Xin'an saw through him and called him out.

Facing the questions from the unsuspecting victim, Shen Ye, who was a thief for the first time, had a wooden face the whole time. Only when Jiang Jianxin came did his expression ease.

Thinking about that scene now, Shen Ye still feels extremely embarrassed.

“Hahahahaha…you hahahahahahahaha.”

Jiang Jianxin on the side laughed so hard that she fell backwards with joy. She gave Shen Ye a thumbs up and looked at this capable subordinate with admiration.

"You did a great job, Shen Ye."

She was framed by Lin Xin'an in the past. If Yin Ju hadn't resisted with all his might, she would have been kidnapped and taken to the TV station by now.

She had been brooding over this matter, so when she heard Lin Xin'an suffer a setback, she felt gloating from the bottom of her heart.

Jiang Jianxin thought that Doctor Lin himself probably didn't expect that while he was running around outside setting up a trap, there was an expert in the hospital who directly robbed his house.

——It is true that man proposes, God disposes.

After all, he is not truly omniscient, and the person who sets up the game may also become the clown in the game.

Shen Ye seemed a little overwhelmed by Jiang Jianxin's praise. He fumbled with his sleeves, and when Jiang Jianxin's laughter stopped, he said with red cheeks:

"I'm glad to bring you joy."

Jiang Jianxin saw his embarrassment. She wiped her face, put away her smile, and coughed seriously, saying:

"I'm very optimistic about you, Shen Ye."

"When I first met you, you were quiet and didn't like to talk. I thought you were a bit dull and didn't know how to adapt."

"I didn't expect you to be so smart and reliable."

According to her experience, this kind of introverted person is much more flexible and adaptable than honest people, and is more useful at critical moments.

Shen Ye nodded seriously:
"I will definitely not let the sage down."

After listening to Shen Ye's escape story, Jiang Jianxin planned to return to the Dawn Base.

She briefly described her experience to Shen Ye, who seemed a little bewildered:
"Then... does the War Alliance welcome me?"

Jiang Jianxin looked at his face with soft contours and delicate features. Although he no longer had those two buns, Shen Ye still looked like a girl, a gentle and harmless girl.

She patted Shen Ye's shoulder, reassuring him and said:
"Don't worry, I'll tell the Alliance you're my distant cousin."

Shen Ye said worriedly:
"I was once controlled by the Blind Master and served the asylum like a mad dog. I'm afraid the name of the Black King has already spread to the War Alliance."

Jiang Jianxin shook his head and said:

"You look like this now, even your former colleagues can't recognize you. How can you expect those big bosses from the War Alliance to recognize you?"

In her opinion, Yin Ju, the most powerful elder in the War Alliance, would at most drink a sip of tea when he saw Shen Ye. With his seventeen years of experience, he sighed calmly - young girls nowadays are really strong.

Shen Ye thought it made sense, so he didn't refute it.

……

After one of them finished eating the compressed biscuits and the other finished eating the steamed buns, they were ready to set off.

The means of transportation was still Jiang Jianxin's sword, and there were no abandoned cars or the like near the rest area of ​​Rose Transportation.

In addition to not being able to find a car, what was more important was that Shen Ye told her that if she went up and down the Rose Expressway as an ordinary gifted person, she would have to spend gold coins, and a lot of them.

Last night, after Shen Ye paid the rest fees for the two of them, he had already used up all the funds in his account, and Jiang Jianxin didn't even have an account.

So Jiang Jianxin made the decision and planned to fly back on her sword - as long as she flew high enough, Rose Transportation would not be able to control her.

"Bang—hum—"

Jiang Jianxin put the Tangguang Sword on the ground, let it float low, and then helped Shen Ye step on it.

She was worried that he wouldn't be able to keep his footing, but Shen Ye's chassis was much more stable than she thought.

The whole process of getting on the sword went smoothly. He didn't shout or yell while flying, but was as calm as a mute.

Jiang Jianxin stepped on the sword and flew high in the sky. The whistling wind passed by his ears. He was surrounded by clouds and mist. The ground below was desolate and there was nothing to see.

She was bored, so she found something to say to Shen Ye:

"You're quite reassuring. You're so steady even on your first sword ride."

Shen Ye stood behind her, his voice muffled by the wind:
"I'm blind, so flying a sword might be scary, but since I can't see, I'm not afraid."

Jiang Jianxin was speechless. She felt that she had said something wrong and quickly apologized:
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."

Shen Ye just smiled:
"It's alright, sage, there's no need to blame yourself for this."

Jiang Jianxin tugged at his sleeves, thought for a moment, and then reminded:

"When we return to the Alliance, don't call me Sage anymore. Call me cousin."

Shen Ye nodded and said seriously:
"Okay sir."

Neither of them spoke for the rest of the journey. At around four or five in the afternoon, Jiang Jianxin finally flew over the Dawn Base.
