But then, the man smiled and raised his hand to lift the black veil, revealing his handsome face, and said softly:
"It's me, Chen Huijie, the guy who came with Nian and Xi. We've met before."
Have you seen it? Maybe...
Ji nodded numbly. He had given up everything in order to remember his sister's name. Even if he had met this person before, it was normal that he didn't remember it at this moment. He returned his gaze to the wooden sign, looking at the word "millet" on it, as if he was completely immersed in it, and the atmosphere of sadness enveloped him again.
Chen Huijie was silent for a moment, then reached out and gently pressed Ji's shoulder, and said in a gentle tone:
"Mr. Ji, at this moment, no one can stop you from remembering Senior Shu. But the dead are gone, and the living remain. I think Senior Shu would not want to see you sink into despair. If Mr. Ji wants to find something to do, why not come to Nian and Xi? They have discussed a method with me, just like this wooden sign, which may find a way out for you. I have an urgent matter here, so I won't stay any longer. Mr. Ji, take care of yourself."
After saying that, True Dragon Chen Huijie turned and walked out of the mourning hall. At this moment, Ji suddenly raised his head, looked at Chen Huijie's back and shouted:
"You said you would remember Sister Shu, can you remember her?"
"..."
Chen Huijie stopped and turned to look at Ji, smiling and said:
"I will remember you. If one day you feel as if the whole world has forgotten you, remember to come and see me, because I will recognize you. Oh, by the way, I heard from Nian that you seem to like noodle soup, Mr. Ji. I remember there is a place in Longmen that is delicious. Next time you come to Longmen, I will treat you. Now, Mr. Ji, see you in the rivers and lakes."
After saying that, Chen Huijie smiled at Ji, raised his head, took off the black veil that covered the wind and sand, and disappeared in front of Ji. With the disappearance of the real dragon Chen Huijie, this dream also came to an end.
As the dream ended, Ji suddenly woke up in reality. He was a little dazed and couldn't tell for a moment whether he was in Sister Shu's mourning hall or in the confinement room of the Longmen Guard Bureau. However, the feeling of pressure that came immediately made him sober up and realize which side was the reality.
Ji couldn't help but take a deep breath. What was he planning to do just now? Oh, yes, Wei Yanwu and Lin Gerui had just come and wanted to "discuss" the matter of being captured with him. But no matter what, he actually held a certain initiative.
After all, he is a Sui Pian, and he currently controls considerable trade resources. They dare not do anything to him, nor can they keep him here. Even if he ignores them, soon, people from Simuitai will come to take him over. By then, he will have plenty of ways to escape from Simuitai.
However, Wei Yanwu and Lin Gerui also understood this point. After all, they were the masters of both the Yin and Yang aspects of Longmen. They made their stance clear from the start.
"Mr. Ji, you don't want the Simitai to know about your mischief at Longmen, do you?"
I don't know why, but I always feel that these words don't seem to be thought up by Wei Yanwu and Lin Gerui, but more like someone taught them to say it.
But it doesn't matter. As for Si Sui Tai, Ji is really trying to avoid it at this moment. Since Wei Yanwu and Lin Gerui are willing to talk like this, he is also happy to cooperate. As a businessman, how can he be afraid of talking about business?
However, Ji could also feel that what Wei Yanwu and the others wanted seemed to be to open up a new business track for Longmen. This was really beyond Ji's expectations, because over the years, his impression of Longmen officials was that they were conservative, and Wei Yanwu did not seem like someone who would take the initiative to explore this blue ocean.
But it doesn't matter. As long as the problem can be solved with money and materials, Ji will be happy to do it.
So, Ji and Wei Yanwu happily reached a cooperation, but as to when Ji could leave, Wei Yanwu said he had to ask other people.
Ask someone else? Aren't you the Governor of Longmen?
There was a series of question marks in Ji's head, but this question could no longer be answered. Wei Yanwu and Lin Gerui were running too fast, as if something would hit them if they ran slower.
Back in the silent confinement room, Ji thought about it and decided to use his own power to touch the weight of luck that was pressing on him. To be honest, he was captured too quickly and he didn't even have time to see anything clearly before he was locked up here. It was really strange. When did Longmen have such a powerful guy?
However, just when Ji was trying to use his power to lift the heavy pressure on his back, Chen Huijie entered the dream of the year phase. The nine golden dragons of luck were also a part of Chen Huijie's existence. In addition, Ji's actions at this time were an accident, which made him enter the magical dream.
Chen Huijie... I remember in my dream, he said he was also from Longmen, and after I get out, maybe I can...
"Are we really not going to feed this prisoner? He won't get sick from hunger, will he? Look at the white-haired Syracuse over there. He's said to be so hungry he's started electrocuting himself with Originium techniques."
"I heard that the white wolf was just playing with the electric switch out of boredom... Never mind, it's not important. Mr. Chen said this prisoner's situation is special, so we don't need to worry about him. I think even if he starves for a few days, it won't be a big deal."
Just as Ji was trying to digest the news in his dream, the voice of the guard outside the door caught his attention. Mr. Chen...
Ji's eyes lit up slightly, he thought for a moment, cleared his throat, and said softly:
"Mr. Chen, are you referring to Chen Huijie from Longmen?"
"......" X2
Wait, what's wrong with you two? Are you really that obedient? Mr. Chen told you not to control me and you didn't even talk to me?!
Ji felt somewhat helpless and could only continue:
"If this is Mr. Chen Huijie from Longmen, please tell him that I have something I want to discuss with him... I need to explain it to him."
These are all excuses. I just want to meet Mr. Chen now. If he is really the person I dreamed of...
So what should I do?
Ji suddenly felt a little lost. It seemed strange that he would go and talk to this person just based on a strange dream, but...
Ji recalled the man's appearance when he left in his dream. It was as if he was chatting with him about family matters. He made his promise to himself... no, to all the people around him. It seemed like he was joking, but Ji could clearly feel his seriousness and the weight behind this promise.
It seemed as if one day I was really absorbed by [Years]. If there was a wisp of my soul wandering around in this world by chance, he would find me, call my name, and take me to Longmen to drink that bowl of noodle soup.
so...
What would happen if I met her? As a young girl, I've already met many people, so this one won't make a difference. I've been lost for so long, so this one won't make a difference either. It doesn't matter if I live or die, but my sister... deserves to be remembered.
Outside the door, the two guards looked at each other and quickly ran away. After making sure that Ji would not hear their conversation, they continued:
"Should we contact Mr. Chen? It doesn't seem like the prisoner is lying."
"Well... let's contact the captain first. I remember Governor Wei just told the captain to submit the matter of the prisoner to him first..."
"Hey, hey, over here, over here!!"
Just as the two guards were discussing in a low voice, a voice suddenly came from the confinement room next to them. They turned their heads and saw an Anati (Musteleidae) with gray hair and gray eyes, wearing an engineering uniform, waving at them.
After noticing the guard's gaze, the Anati woman immediately clasped her hands together and said pleadingly:
"I'm really a member of the Rhine Life Engineering Corutera Studio. My name is Mel Stoney, and my work ID is still here... Indeed, my little Mibo exploded, but that was a normal experimental condition. The big explosion in the old town really has nothing to do with me. I've already delayed the experimental progress for too long. Please, please, let me out quickly!"
"Prisoner, we will review your situation as soon as possible. If what you said is true, we will release you immediately. Until then, please be patient."
The two guards had heard this kind of talk countless times this afternoon alone. Indeed, this major operation caught a lot of guys who didn't deserve to be sentenced, but there were even more bad guys who deserved to be sentenced!
Moreover, the large-scale arrests last night were not made for no reason. To be locked up, there must be something wrong. My colleagues are already working hard to investigate. Without the orders of Governor Wei and Mr. Chen, it is better not to think too much about being cut in line for investigation.
After hearing this official response, Mel could only sit back helplessly. She was really innocent. She just came to Longmen to participate in an electrical engineering enthusiasts exchange meeting to see if she could learn some new technologies to give to her "little Mimibo". Who could have thought that such a thing would happen!
Why....
Mel sighed helplessly as he gazed at the iron bars of the solitary confinement cell. He had been captured so quickly that he hadn't even had time to send out an emergency message. Now he could only hope that the program he had set up beforehand would allow his colleagues at Rhine Life to quickly come to Longmen and rescue him after noticing he had lost contact...
On the other side, at Chongyue's place, the grandmaster had not yet had time to leave Yumen. After all, his identity was there, and if he wanted to leave, he had to report and apply. Therefore, the returning Ling found his elder brother quite easily. The brother and sister looked at each other and immediately understood each other's thoughts.
"Brother, do you think that person can succeed in this dream?"
Although Ling no longer cared about returning to [Sui], she was still very positive if there was a way to let her brothers and sisters survive. She looked at her eldest brother eagerly, because she knew that her eldest brother was more persuasive than anyone else in removing the Sui fragment from [Sui].
"At the moment, it seems to be a feasible path."
Zhongyue recalled a dream he had not long ago, in which he dreamed of helping his other brothers and sisters escape from poverty. After pondering for a while, he gave this answer. Then, Ling asked a key question:
"Brother, do you think there really is a young man who, having achieved such proficiency in swordsmanship and talismans, would still have the energy to research a method for removing age fragments?"
Both Chongyue and Ling could see that the young man was really young. This was exactly why the two of them were puzzled. No matter how talented this person was, there had to be a limit.
"Brother, do you think it's possible that what we had was actually a precognitive dream?"
Finally, it was Ling who broke the silence between the two. Ling looked at his elder brother and said in a serious tone:
"Whether it's the talisman suppressing the Year Phase, the Ten Thousand Swords Slashing the Year Phase, or today's peeling of the Year Flakes, they are actually all possibilities for that young man's future. Those dreams represent the power he might possess in the future."
"Sister, every profession has its own specialties. Your power has a unique advantage in the area of 'dreams'."
Zhongyue thought for a moment, looked at Ling and said:
"So, I want to hear your judgment."
"I think we can give it a try along this line of thought."
Ling suddenly smiled and said softly:
"Anyway, we don't have any better choice now, right?"
"Then I'd better go to the capital's Baizao first."
Zhongyue nodded and explained to his sister:
"The Chixiao sword technique used by that young man seems to be related to the Great Yan royal family. As for Longmen, I remember that Wei Yanwu has no children. Although his niece Chen Huijie also knows this sword technique, her level is not as high as this."
"In that case, I'll go with my brother."
Ling took a sip of wine and said as if he was drunk:
"What's going on in the capital? Big brother is going there alone now. I think there are some things that are difficult to investigate. It's just right that my sister can do it for you."
Just as the youngsters were having their own thoughts, Chen Huijie, who had finished his battle of memory and was about to continue pondering the storybook, silently looked toward the window beside him. There, a circle of light illuminated the smiling face of an optimistic person in the darkness...
millet.jpg
256 Shura Field, thump, thump, thump! ! !
Who is this optimist? It is naturally Miss Angel from Penguin Logistics. Although Chen Huijie is curious why she came to find him at this point, it doesn’t matter anymore because no one can keep up with Miss Angel’s train of thought.
Chen Huijie pushed open the window, reached out and grabbed the arm of the Angel, took it over, looked at the propulsion device behind it, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said softly:
"Has Penguin Logistics started equipping itself with this type of transport equipment? It looks like the traffic police in Longmen are going to have another headache."
"What are you talking about, Brother Jie? Don't make it seem like we're going to have to fight the traffic police every day."
Angel of Exaltation protested unsatisfied, then punched Chen Huijie twice with his little fist and continued to protest:
"Also, Brother Jie, we're good friends, so why did you lock me up today? With your arrest, I broke the record for the shortest time to enter the Guards Bureau at Penguin Logistics."
"Let me be honest. If you had driven a little slower, I wouldn't have had to lock you up."
Chen Huijie thought back to what happened this morning and said with a headache:
"Also, how did I end up with your Penguin Logistics mobile truck? I've only been in Longmen for a few days, and I've almost been hit by you twice. Shouldn't you give me an explanation for this?"
"Ahahahaha, this....means that Brother Jie and we are destined to be together!"
To be honest, Angel also felt that this was inappropriate. It seemed as if they were having a grudge against Brother Jie. This was not acceptable. It would be bad if they had a misunderstanding with Brother Jie because of this.
So, the Archangel started laughing, trying to fool around with this embarrassing situation and said:
"Besides, Brother Jie, you're so strong, even if I bumped into you, you're definitely fine. If you go to the hospital, I'll take care of you!"
"He's going to die."
Chen Huijie recalled the Speed Racer he saw this morning and said without hesitation in a firm tone:
"He's definitely dead!"
Although Chen Huijie had Qi to protect his body, under normal circumstances, the Qi he used to protect his body was just something he used during exercise. That level of Qi was useless for a Penguin Logistics Mobile Vehicle that flew like a low-flying airplane...
Let me just say that back when I was still a dragon, I was actually rushed to the hospital by Exia and Texas! Although the injuries were minor and I was discharged that afternoon, it still shows how capable these two speedsters are.
However, in the previous world line, Texas and Exiah apologized very sincerely. They took care of me as a nurse and a maid, which made me feel a little embarrassed, so I forgave them.
“…”
On the other side, Angelica initially thought Chen Huijie was joking, but after hearing Chen Huijie's decisive tone, Angelica's smile froze for a moment. She couldn't help but reflect on her own actions, and then came to a conclusion -
Next time when you're racing, just keep an eye on Brother Jie. You can't always blame Brother Jie for every car accident!
Thinking of this, Angel immediately reached a reconciliation with himself, then changed the subject, holding the backpack, looking at Chen Huijie with a smile and said:
"Brother Jie, guess what I brought you!"
“Apple pie.”
"Wow!!!"
The eyes of the Angel of Power lit up, and he rubbed against Chen Huijie's side, happily grabbed his arm and shook it, saying:
"Brother Jie and I are so in tune with each other. Yes, it's apple pie!"
Angel quickly took out an insulated box from her backpack and opened it. The sweet aroma of apple pie immediately filled the air. Angel smiled and picked up a piece, handed it to Chen Huijie and said:
"Brother Jie, you're so busy these days. The boss said you definitely won't have time to come to the party recently. So, ding ding ding, your lovely friend Angel has brought you the most delicious apple pie at the party. So, if you round it up, it counts as you attending the party!"
"You... It's really hard to be quiet when you're around."
Looking at the eyes of the Angel that seemed to be filled with happiness, Chen Huijie couldn't help laughing. He couldn't help but tap the Angel's forehead with his fingers, then took the apple pie and took a bite to taste it.
The Angel touched his forehead, chuckled, then pouted and put his hands on his hips as he looked at Chen Huijie and said:
"Brother Jie, do you think I'm too noisy? If you nod, I'll be unhappy!"
"Then I can only shake my head."
Chen Huijie smiled and answered, which made Angel very satisfied. Now that he had passed this test, it was time to eat apple pie!
What? The apple pie isn't for Brother Jie? Of course it's for Brother Jie, but! Apple pie at a party tastes even better when you have someone to eat it with!
