Rebel Demon King

chapter 536

(Sent a cover tweet testimonial, if you are interested, you can take a look in the work related, three-in-one update)

Cheng Mo brushed the maze on the second floor alone for an hour, and then wandered around the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang with great interest for more than two hours before returning to the main body. The reason why he was so interested was because Cheng Mo discovered the underground maze of the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang In fact, it is very interesting. The scenes in each room reflect the historical situation of the Qin Dynasty at that time. From civilians to wealthy businessmen, from the ruling class to myths and legends, it covers all aspects of the Qin Dynasty. It is very helpful for future generations to understand the history of the Qin Dynasty. helpful
Cheng Mo even tasted the wine of Qin Dynasty. Cheng Mo speculated that it was brewed from glutinous rice, sorghum, and barley. The alcohol content was not high and the taste was bitter.Since drinking wine is a must to taste the "food" of the Qin Dynasty, the taste of the grilled skewers is worse than the wine, with only a little salty taste, very fishy, ​​even a person who is not picky like Cheng Mo finds it hard to swallow .

In this way, even if a modern person is a hanging silk, he can kill Qin Shihuang's quality of life in seconds.

In addition to being interested in history, Cheng Mo is a little curious about whether there are these mazes in the real Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. Logically speaking, they should not exist. The restoration model of Qin Shihuang’s Mausoleum that Cheng Mo saw during the day does not have these mazes, but there is a corridor outside the maze.But according to Cheng Mo's conjecture, the maze should and should exist.

Of course, thinking about these things is meaningless to the Chosen One. Cheng Mo wants to explore the root cause of it, but also because of his interest and wants to understand the purpose of the "Chosen One System" in creating the "Land of Relics". Cheng Mo firmly believes that The choice of "Land of Relics" is definitely not aimless.

After returning to the main body, Cheng Mo looked up some information about Qin Chao and the "Soul Calling Banner" on the Internet, but it is a pity that the Internet is not omnipotent, so even "Du Niang" can't help with such professional and unpopular knowledge
At noon, Bai Xiuxiu called Cheng Mo for dinner, and went to the "Xianyan Chinese Restaurant" located on the second floor of the hotel. This restaurant only has eleven private rooms, all of which are luxurious rooms facing the view of Qujiang Pond. Bai Xiuxiu decided to It is the most expensive room "Ziyan". To be honest, two people eat in a private room of more than 200 square meters so extravagantly that they are lonely.

In addition to the 180-degree beautiful view of Qujiang Pond, the room is filled with various artworks, creating a modern feeling of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

The cherry-shaped foie gras melts in the mouth; the champagne in the crystal crab jelly has a very complex taste, but it also gives the taste buds an extremely wonderful enjoyment; steamed yam with Hokkaido milk is soft and sweet, making it hard to believe that yam can so delicious.

In addition, there are caviar suckling pig slices, Chang'an special gourd chicken and Tianzhu special curry lobster. Bai Xiuxiu ordered a large table again. Although Bai Xiuxiu doesn't eat much, Bai Xiuxiu likes to watch others eat!
When eating, Bai Xiuxiu just tasted all the dishes. Even if the food portion of "Xianyan" is not much, Cheng Mo can see that Bai Xiuxiu is quite satisfied, but Bai Xiuxiu is still just a taste, which makes Cheng Mo feel helpless I don't admire Bai Xiuxiu's perseverance. Fasting or bigu is an extremely painful thing. For ordinary people, ten days and one month have reached the limit. Those who can persist for a long time are simply the rhythm of attaining Taoism and becoming immortal.

Cheng Mo had to lament that women are willing to pay no matter how much it costs in order to maintain their youth forever.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and the Qujiang Pond was sparkling. In the Ziyan box, besides the faint smell of food, there was also the smell of wine. Bai Xiuxiu asked Cheng Mo to exercise his drinking capacity and taught him a series of knowledge about wine. Including the matching of wine and food, the etiquette of opening a bottle, the posture of holding a glass and so on.

Cheng Mo also studied it seriously. For a person who wants to be an undercover agent, this is quite practical knowledge.

When the meal was over and the tofu pudding was served for dessert, Bai Xiuxiu told Cheng Mo that she would leave Chang'an in the afternoon and return to Star City. After all, she was not as free as Cheng Mo. Apart from Taijilong's affairs, there was also Gao Yun's work to preside over. , the next time Chang'an will be on Saturday, that's probably when the new students will enter the underground palace.

Bai Xiuxiu asked Cheng Mo again if she would go back to Star City with her. Although Cheng Mo had to enter the remains of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum every night, as long as Cheng Mo did not choose to activate the carrier in a place other than the marked resurrection point, he would take more responsibility. The activation fee does not affect the free movement of Cheng Mo's body.

In fact, Du Leng and his colleges are not in Chang'an at the moment, they are all in the capital. They also came here on Friday. After entering the "Land of Relics" to mark the resurrection point, the main body returned to the capital. land.

Cheng Mo thought about it and decided to stay in Chang'an for a few more days, because he wanted to clarify some questions about the Qin Dynasty and Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, and the most experienced researcher on the Qin Dynasty and Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum is known as "the father of Qin Warriors". "Professor Yuan Zhongyi is in Chang'an.

Cheng Mo told Bai Xiuxiu that he wanted her to contact her and got a chance to visit Professor Yuan. Naturally, Bai Xiuxiu did not refuse, but just reminded Cheng Mo that he had a consumption task of [-] million yuan to complete, so don't forget it.
Thinking of this, Cheng Mo felt dizzy again, two hundred million!What can he spend when he is only allowed to buy consumer goods?
Although Cheng Mo knew that Bai Xiuxiu would not allow him to refuse this matter, but thinking that a month was too short, Cheng Mo said: "Sister Bai, I am only a 17-year-old ordinary high school student, so it is too much to get rich overnight." Is the high-profile too eye-catching?"

Bai Xiuxiu smiled faintly: "When you sat in the Rolls Royce arranged for you by Xie Minyun, why didn't you think it was too high-profile? Your name is all over the entire Yuelu Mountain, why didn't you think it was too eye-catching? Now tell me about getting rich overnight Too high profile and too noticeable?"

Holding the stainless steel spoon, Cheng Mo was speechless, and said after a long while, "It's completely two different things. I got off the car in a hidden place. As for the Yuelu Mountain brand, who knows it's me?"

"Oh? Since that's the case, I'll make it clear for you. Do you want to win a multi-billion prize in the welfare lottery, or do you want to inherit a large sum of inheritance from overseas!" Bai Xiuxiu pretended to be serious.

Hearing "inheriting a large sum of inheritance from overseas", Cheng Mo's eyes immediately moved away from Bai Xiuxiu's charming face unnaturally, and looked down at the tofu nao in the blue and white porcelain bowl. It is as clean as a mirror, without a trace of scratches, clearly reflecting Cheng Mo's immature face, Cheng Mo quickly inserted the spoon into the white tofu brain, and then expelled his own appearance from his mind.

"Actually, it's not necessary. I should be able to use Lin Zhinuo's identity, right?" Said Wan Wanmo and lowered his head, pretending to be drinking tofu nao.

Bai Xiuxiu looked at Cheng Mo and said softly, "If you want"

Cheng Mo knew that Bai Xiuxiu wanted to ask him if he wanted to know about his mother, so he interrupted Bai Xiuxiu without hesitation, "No, I'm fine now, there's nothing I want to know!"

Thinking of the scene where Cheng Mo got drunk yesterday, Bai Xiuxiu just looked at Cheng Mo motionlessly and didn't speak for a long time. To a certain extent, Bai Xiuxiu and Cheng Mo were in the same disease, and they both lost their dearest relatives who could share the weight of life. So Bai Xiuxiu felt that she could actually understand Cheng Mo's mood.

Bai Xiuxiu just watched Cheng Mo eating a bowl of tofu brain without saying a word. When Cheng Mo put down the spoon expressionlessly, Bai Xiuxiu's thoughts moved slightly, and her heart of pity spontaneously arose, and she couldn't help reaching for a tissue Gently wiped Cheng Mo's mouth, and at the same time said in an admonishing tone: "Sometimes the more you tell yourself not to miss someone, the more you will miss him, because you have to make up your mind to do things, just It’s something you can’t do no matter how hard you struggle, so there’s no need to be so deliberate.”

Cheng Mo didn't know why he didn't avoid Bai Xiuxiu's child-care-like action, and let Bai Xiuxiu gently wipe his mouth clean. He said in a non-surprised tone: "I think that missing this kind of thing is only happy when you can get a response. If you only miss it unilaterally, no matter whether the other party is alive or dead, it is a kind of sadness."

This time, Bai Xiuxiu didn't get furious because Cheng Mo mirrored herself, but smiled, "Missing this kind of thing is not as burdensome as you said, don't dwell on the past, just take out those unhappy plots and chew them over and over again." .Think about the happiness you once had. As the saying goes, if you never forget, there must be an echo. Bring a pot of wine, light a lamp, and listen to the rain. There are traces when there is rain, there are people when there are lights, and there are souls when there is wine.”

Bai Xiuxiu read a line from her favorite "The Grandmaster", and then raised the red wine glass on the table. Her slender and round arms half-raised the crystal glass. The wine in the glass was ruby-like in color, covering half of her cheeks. A pearl pendant earring dangles beside Bai Xiuxiu's flawless and exquisite face, and on the other side is wine dangling in a luminous glass, forming a kind of bewitching beauty.
"Actually, memory is like red wine. Some poor-quality red wines cannot be preserved, and you will drink them within two years; The edge of the liquid has obviously faded from the young purple, showing a ruby ​​red (Ruby), so it was produced around 2000. 2000 is a good vintage for Lafite, so the price of Lafite in 2000 is also quite high.” Bai Xiuxiu turned the cup in her hand, looked at the swaying wine inside and said.

Cheng Mo also raised the glass, tilted the glass slightly like Bai Xiuxiu, at an angle of about 30°-45°, and observed the color of the edge of the wine in the glass, "Price is only the meaning given to it by human beings, just like human beings give meaning to longing The same. So the present is the most important thing. It tastes good enough at this moment, it is really good. The person sitting in front of you at this moment is the one who can make you happy. True happiness does not need the taste to rest on the price of nothingness. Just like don't pin your happiness on empty thoughts."

To be reasonable, Cheng Mo would not admit cowardice.

Bai Xiuxiu drank the wine in the glass in one sip in a non-noble way, then she put down the glass, her plain face was blushing slightly, and she looked even more radiant, "It's not nothingness! For me Said, missing is a scattered puzzle made up of the sweet life in the past. Missing just makes my memory more complete, so that no one will remember him in the future. When I am still young and can still see people, Qingming can accompany him more Drink a few cups, and when I am old one day, I won't go to see him. Let my daughter go."

Only then did Cheng Mo know why Bai Xiuxiu was so afraid of getting old, but what surprised him even more was Bai Xiuxiu's last sentence. Although he was surprised, Cheng Mo was able to ask calmly: "Do you have a daughter?"

Bai Xiuxiu picked up the decanter placed on the marble table, and poured herself another glass of wine, "Not yet, but there will be in the future, I froze the eggs, and I'm looking for a suitable person, if the age allows, I will make a test tube, if not Just find a surrogate”

Naturally, Cheng Mo would not let go of this opportunity to leave a mark on Bai Xiuxiu's heart, "Then you don't have to look for it, no one is more suitable than me."

Bai Xiuxiu bluntly ignored Cheng Mo's self-confidence, and laughed: "Not to mention that you are not handsome enough, a heart patient who lacked love since childhood? Let's forget it"

Cheng Mo didn't mind Bai Xiuxiu's sarcasm, shook his head and said in a self-promotional way: "It is true that I have heart disease, which is inherited, but the current gene editing technology can get rid of this. It’s nothing. Besides, if your so-called “suitable” means the best, I think you’re mistaken. The best is not the most suitable. You should know that the species that can survive in this world are never the best Strong ones, such as dinosaurs, but those species that are most able to adapt to changes, such as humans, people like me who can survive in extreme environments are enough to prove my 'suitability'!"

Bai Xiuxiu picked her straight and beautiful Chang'e eyebrows, and said in the tone of a rich woman picking jewelry that is not up to her grade: "If this is the case, then try to prove it to me! Anyway, I am still young, no urgent."

After all, Cheng Mo's morality is not as deep as that of Bai Xiuxiu. Even though he said a lot of presumptuous words in front of Bai Xiuxiu recently, he still dare not look at Bai Xiuxiu's swaying gaze at this moment. He just feels that Bai Xiuxiu's coercion and teasing are really invisible. A simple movement of raising an eyebrow makes one's heart tremble.

Although Cheng Mo was defeated again, Cheng Mo would never do such a thing as admitting defeat. In any case, since he started this extremely difficult challenge task, he couldn't give up halfway, so Cheng Mo thought for a moment, lowered his brows and said: "I will I'll prove it to you, so don't worry, you must wait for me."

Cheng Mo's voice was very soft, but his tone was very firm.

Cheng Mo's words made Bai Xiuxiu's expression froze for a moment, but she quickly turned her body slightly jokingly and reached out to rub Cheng Mo's hair, "Hey! Don't be so serious, okay? I'm an old woman in her 30s, I can't wait for you to grow up."

Cheng Mo unexpectedly reached out and grabbed Bai Xiuxiu's wrist, stopping her movement. Bai Xiuxiu's hand was cold and soft as boneless, "Well, don't wait, I will protect you, the little girl in your heart Yes, so you won't grow old"

Bai Xiuxiu smiled lightly at first, then covered her mouth with her other hand, sat on the chair and laughed back and forth, as if she was about to burst into tears.

Cheng Mo had never seen Bai Xiuxiu laughing so presumptuously before, and let go of Bai Xiuxiu's wrist, "Is it so funny?"

"It's funny that you're serious about telling lies, or you're still telling lies! Cheng Mo, you've never confessed your love to a girl, have you?" Bai Xiuxiu panted while laughing.

Cheng Mo glanced at Bai Xiuxiu, saw her towering chest rising and falling in front of his eyes, and felt a bit of frustration in his firm heart, he said blankly: "No."

"Next time, don't use such exaggerated words. This kind of words can only deceive a little girl like Xie Minyun. It doesn't work for an old woman like me. In fact, as long as you tell the truth, very simple words can be very moving. " Bai Xiuxiu reached out and tapped Cheng Mo's head again.

Bai Xiuxiu's elusiveness made Cheng Mo feel the meaning of "a needle in the bottom of a woman's heart" again, and he also had some doubts about some of his "routines". Experience, so that the performance is too exaggerated, Cheng tacitly believes that the reason for making such a mistake may be influenced by the few Qiong Yao dramas he has watched.

Although Cheng Mo doesn't like Aunt Qiong Yao at all, but even if he doesn't watch Qiong Yao's dramas, some clips will enter his field of vision all pervasively, such as the classic lines in "Deep Love in the Rain", Ruping's monologue after He Shuhuan left : "On the first day Shuhuan left, I missed him; on the second day Shuhuan left, I missed him and missed him; on the third day Shuhuan left, I missed him and missed him."

Another example is "Han Zhu Ge Ge", which is released every summer vacation. Even Cheng Mo can't escape its "poison". What impressed Shang Chengmo the most was not Erkang's nostrils, but the sentence that Ziwei said affectionately to Erkang: "The mountains have no edges, and the heaven and the earth are in harmony, so they dare to break with the king."

And Erkang said to Ziwei with his nostrils open, tears and snot falling together: "Ziwei, I love you so much!"

Ziwei: "You hurt, I hurt too! You hurt, I hurt even more!"

Young Cheng Mo's inner OS at that time was: "The world of adults is really childish and ridiculous. If it hurts, don't love! If you want to love, don't be afraid of pain? Is falling in love more painful than getting an injection? "

Looking into it, in addition to philosophy books that made him have a bad impression of love, Qiong Yao's drama is definitely the culprit
Unexpectedly, if I racked my brains to impress Bai Xiuxiu, I was still shrouded in the shadow of my childhood, and actually said such nasty words, but Cheng Mo forgave himself very quickly, after all, he really has no experience. The experience of being kissed and confessed was useless, he murmured unconvinced: "You're going to kick me again if you're telling the truth"

Said Wanmo shrank subconsciously, as if he was guarding against Bai Xiuxiu kicking him away.

However, Bai Xiuxiu put away her exaggerated smile, wiped away the tears from her eyes, and gently scratched the tip of Cheng Mo's nose, "It's all your fault, it made me laugh out my crow's feet. of"

Inexplicably, this instant silence actually produced an intense pleasure, and the dopamine rushed straight to the brain, just like an extremely complicated math problem, which he saw the dawn of solving.

------------------

In the afternoon, Bai Xiuxiu returned to Star City, but Bai Xiuxiu left the driver, bodyguard and car to Cheng Mo, and made an appointment for Cheng Mo to go to Chang'an Jiaotong University tomorrow afternoon to meet Professor Yuan Zhongyi, the "father of Terracotta Warriors".

In the afternoon, Cheng Mo went to Chang'an Bell Tower Bookstore and bought a lot of books about the Qin Dynasty and came back to read them, so as to save Yuan Zhongyi's money tomorrow, in case he made a fool of himself if he said something wrong.While buying books in the bookstore, Zhou Yun sent another text message to Cheng Mo, telling him that Bai Xiuxiu had left.

Cheng Mo didn't say that he knew it a long time ago, but just said "very good", without even a thank you. The reason why Cheng Mo did this is to slowly establish a relationship between superiors and subordinates and control Zhou Yun's thoughts.

As for how to help Zhou Yun get promoted, Cheng Mo is still planning, all of this has to be done after establishing a relatively strong relationship with Zhou Yun.

That night, Cheng Mo's fourth team was online 10 minutes earlier than the other teams. This is still far away from the idea of ​​grabbing six hours on Saturday, but after a night of running-in, Cheng Mo and the others completed today. It was a little better than yesterday, Cheng Mo and the others grabbed half an hour.

The reason why the quota was only increased by 10 minutes compared to yesterday is also because the difficulty of the second floor is relatively high.

On Wednesday afternoon, the weather was fine again. Cheng Mo went out to find Professor Yuan Zhongyi, hoping to find the answer he wanted from Professor Yuan Zhongyi.Chang'an Jiaotong University is not far from the W Hotel. Going west towards the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, there is Chang'an's college district. Besides Chang'an Jiaotong University, there are many famous schools, such as Chang'an Political Science and Law, Chang'an Posts and Telecommunications, and Chang'an Fine Arts.
However, these schools are far less famous than Chang'an Jiaotong University. You must know that Chang'an Jiaotong University is one of the nine school alliances (C9, known as the Chinese Ivy League).

Because it’s time for classes, the campus of Chang’an Jiaotong University is quite crowded with people. Two rows of tall Magnolias extend inward along the main road of the campus. When passing the famous Wutong Avenue, it is the most beautiful moment of this road. Late autumn The splendor and bleakness created by the golden yellow make people unable to stop. At this moment, many people are taking pictures on this picturesque long street.

It’s just a pity that the buildings of Chang’an Jiaotong University are lacklustre. Almost all of them were built in the 90s and left special imprints of the times. The white porcelain tiles, the former Soviet style, and the square fountain all have a strong nostalgic style.

Yuan Zhongyi and Cheng Mo made an appointment to meet in Qian Xuesen's exclusive reading room in the library. It is admirable that an old man in his 80s can still insist on coming to the library to read every day.

When Cheng Mo found Professor Yuan's exclusive reading room on the second floor of the library according to the text message sent by the contact person, the red wooden door facing the elevator was open. Cheng Mo stood on the door frame and knocked on the opened wooden door, and shouted: "Hi, I'm looking for Professor Yuan!"

Professor Yuan, who was wearing a blue Chinese tunic suit, was sitting at a desk by the blue glass window reading a book. He was wearing golden presbyopic glasses, his face was full of deep wrinkles, and the back of his exposed hands was covered with age spots. There is a thermos cup on the wine-red desk, the curling heat is transpiring, and the sun shines on Professor Yuan's gray hair, shining a dazzling light.
Professor Yuan didn't turn his head, but the middle-aged woman standing behind him immediately turned her head, "You are Cheng Mo, right?"

Cheng Mo nodded and said, "Yes!"

The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "I'm just contacting you, Sister Li. Professor Yuan's ears are not good. I can't hear very well, especially when you are reading. Come in!"
