Doll Note [Transmigration Book]

Both Qiao Sheng and Lu Chen felt something was wrong in the proving ground today.

First, the cameras that monitored them every day disappeared, and then the deformed puppet, which has always been elusive, did not appear for two consecutive hours. All signs indicated that something was brewing in the proving ground.

"Do you regret it?"

Qiao Sheng's expression was still gloomy, he glanced at his friend, watched him bow his head in silence, and asked a casual question.

Ever since Qiao Sheng and Lu Chen helped the three of them leave, the rest of the team members felt dissatisfied with this.

Given the chance, who wouldn't want to leave this ghostly place?Lu Chen chose to let the book runners leave instead of teammates who lived and died together, which made them somewhat unacceptable.

If it wasn't for Lu Chen standing beside them, their small group would surely fall apart soon.

"No regrets."

Lu Chen is the marshal of the empire, and it is his duty to protect the people, even if those three are book walkers.

Qiao Sheng laughed when he heard this.

This is indeed the Lu Chen he knew.

It was quiet in the dark forest, and from time to time one could hear the distant teammates discussing about catching fish. In this weird and terrifying place, they seldom had such a leisurely time.

"What happened in the proving ground?"

After a brief silence, Lu Chen turned his head to look at Qiao Sheng who was resting on the tree trunk, with a serious expression.

"I've been following you, how could I know?"

Qiao Sheng didn't open his eyes. At first he thought that the other party was just asking casually, but after he answered, Lu Chen didn't say anything, obviously something was wrong.

He raised his eyelids and met Lu Chen's eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

"You know." Lu Chen said in a low voice.

Qiao Sheng paused, and twitched the corners of his mouth, wanting to perfunctory, but under the gaze of the other party staring at him, he was silent for some reason.

Lu Chen has always known how to measure. Even if he knows that he is not as ignorant as he appears on the surface, he rarely asks about these things. It seems that the matter of the book runner has had a great impact on Lu Chen.

"Do you know what is most important to Shen Yuxi in this trial ground?" Qiao Sheng's voice was a little lazy, he looked up at the twisted branches above his head, and asked suddenly.

Lu Chen froze for a moment.

"Those S-rank puppets?"

Qiao Sheng sneered, "How is it possible? It's a tree. The most precious and priceless thing in this trial ground is a tree."

Tree?

Hearing this, Lu Chen looked towards the endless forest beside him. In this place that frightened countless Blue Stars, is the most important thing for Shen Yuxi a tree?

"Of course it's not an ordinary tree." Qiao Sheng took off his glasses, showing an obscure and complicated expression, "That's the treasure of the old man and my junior brother."

Qiao Sheng's father?

Lu Chen frowned a little deeper, "What do you mean?"

Since Qiao Sheng decided to tell the story, he didn't intend to show off. He leaned on the tree trunk and said slowly: "You should know the effect of that tree. One of its cores is placed on the energy transfer device. , to assist the researchers in transferring the powers of the puppet to humans."

Fifteen years ago, the research on the transfer device was successful, which instantly caused a huge commotion in the upper echelons of the Blue Star Empire. The machine researcher, Qiao Sheng's father, Qiao Bing, also took this opportunity to become the greatest director of the research institute in the past.

"The core of the diverter is actually the core of that tree?"

Lu Chen's expression was a little surprised. The information on the transfer device has always been in a high-level confidentiality state. Even a marshal of his level does not know that the transfer device is made of a tree.

"Ah."

Seeing Lu Chen's expression, Qiao Sheng wanted to laugh but couldn't. He pointed to the tree outside and said, "This tree is not only powerful because of the transfer device, we are trapped here and cannot get out because of this tree. tree."

"Without the core, the tree is still safe and sound?"

Lu Chen always asked key questions.

Qiao Sheng smiled, but his eyes were ironic, "How is it possible, that tree has declined for a while, if it wasn't for his two cores, it would have died by now."

"The old man is really a hypocritical and disgusting person. In comparison, people like my junior brother are much cuter."

Qiao Sheng has always been at odds with his father, even though Qiao Bing has passed away for 13 years, Qiao Sheng has not been able to forgive him for a single day, and he is still full of disgust when talking about his father.

Lu Chen didn't know about the enmity between Qiao Sheng and Qiao Bing, and now it seems that it has something to do with it.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it."

Noticing Lu Chen's cautiousness and consideration, Qiao Sheng smiled, and didn't intend to avoid talking about it. After such a long time, except for his aversion to the old man, he can already calmly talk about the disgusting things the old man did. .

"The old man is a very ambitious person. Twenty-five years ago, he was an ordinary puppet master. At that time, he discovered this tree with special abilities, dug out the core of the tree to create a transfer device, and gained power and Money, without paying any attention to the rapid withering of the tree without the core."

He lowered his head and smiled contemptuously.

"After the tree withered, abnormalities appeared in the mother stone of the Blue Star vein, and cracks appeared one after another. Only then did he realize that the tree was far more important than he thought."

After the special tree withered, the mother stone also appeared abnormal?When Lu Chen heard about this for the first time, he frowned. That tree had such a great influence on the mother stone?

Qiao Sheng's eyes were even more sarcastic.

The old man claimed to love dolls, and couldn't accept that Blue Star's mother stone disappeared because of him. He couldn't bear the condemnation in his heart. He went to the emperor and hoped to return the core to the mother stone.

How could the royal family allow the transfer device to be destroyed? Naturally, they rejected this matter, and even asked people to strengthen and improve the machine.

To remove the core, you can only destroy the machine, and destroying the machine from the outside will only completely shatter the core.

After the old man knew about this, he quit his job in the research institute, abandoned his wife and son, and came to Ganfen District. After repeated research, he built this proving ground.

Selfish, stupid, greedy, hypocritical and without self-knowledge, this is his father. The only saving grace of such a person is his talent in production.

If it weren't for this talent, how could a person like Shen Yuxi regard him as a teacher.

"In other words, the proving ground exists only to bring that tree back to life?"

Qiao Sheng did not deny that this was the purpose of the old man in building the trial field in the first place. He said, "I don't know how they use the trial field, but since Blue Star's mother stone has no cracks now, it means that they It’s the right thing to do.”

Lu Chen frowned even deeper.

As far as he is concerned, he would rather there be no puppets in the world than the existence of such harmful things as the testing ground.

"Professor Qiao Bing and Shen Yuxi have been using the proving ground to renew the life of the mother tree." Lu Chen said, his voice a little rough, "Are they always planning to do this?"

If places like the Proving Ground always exist, he thinks it would be more appropriate to let all the dolls in the world die.

But he knows better that for the royal family, the suffering of a few humans is not enough to compare with an army with special abilities.

If they knew that the disappearance of the trial field would make Blue Star's mother stone disappear, they would never agree with their idea of ​​destroying the trial field.

"Of course it's impossible." Qiao Sheng put on his glasses, leaning on the trunk of the tree, looking more and more dejected, "After all, even if you use the proving ground to renew your life, it's just to restore the tree to life temporarily. To fully heal, you still need to put the core back in."

"According to Shen Yuxi's style, when he brought me to the trial ground, it meant that he was already preparing to get the core back."

In other words, Shen Yuxi will get back the core soon, and the proving ground will end soon, and the only dissatisfaction will be the royal family who want to build an army of supernatural beings.

After getting the news, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. The trial field no longer exists, and the puppets will not disappear. This seems to be the best result.

"Why, do you think Shen Yuxi did the right thing again?"

Qiao Sheng smiled, feeling that his friend was innocent and cute.

"No, even if his purpose is for the blue star mother stone, it shouldn't be based on harming humans."

This is indeed the case, but except for the few book walkers, there are not many good people in the entire trial field, most of them have transplanted the abilities of the dolls, and indirectly killed the human beings of the dolls. There is no conclusion.

Lu Chen didn't know what Qiao Sheng was thinking, he was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "It's understandable that your father established a trial field, why did Shen Yuxi agree to this?"

According to Qiao Sheng's description of Shen Yuxi before, the other party should not have the character of conscientiously making plans and fulfilling the other party's last wish after the teacher's death.

And whether the other party really respects Qiao Shan is still unknown.

"who knows."

Qiao Sheng sneered, not far away, the members of the team started calling their names, it seemed that they had already discussed what to eat.

The two got up and walked towards the team members one after the other.

Before the age of eight, Shen Yuxi's memories of being in the garbage dump are all blank. After being adopted by the old man, she has always been a taciturn character, and others can't see his true thoughts at all.

Not to mention Lu Chen, even Qiao Sheng, who had been with him for a while when he was a child, couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking. Why Shen Yuxi, who had always been indifferent and alienated, took over the troublesome trial field was still a mystery until now.

Originally, he thought that the three book walkers would tell him the answer, but the "tree" didn't even appear in the plot of the other party, so it is conceivable that there is no reference.

The only person who could know the reason, Qiao Sheng paused for a moment, thinking of the man Shen Yuxi valued very much.

Immediately he dispelled the thoughts in his head.

Impossible, Qiao Sheng thought, his junior wished to be a perfect image in the other party's eyes all the time, how could he expose his "dark" thoughts.

At this time, Qi Chao, who was being talked about by Qiao Sheng, was in a lot of trouble.

He was tightly wrapped by the shadow.

Originally, Qi Chao thought that it would be difficult for him to breathe, and he was even prepared to suffocate and faint, but in fact, it was not as uncomfortable as he imagined. On the contrary, it was as if a new space had been opened up inside the black shadow, very spacious.

There was darkness in his sight, Qi Chao paused, and walked forward fumblingly.

"Xuanjian, Xiangyue, can you hear me?"

There is no sound.

Obviously, the space inside the shadow is not connected to the outside world.

Qi Chao reached out and rubbed his temples, and the scene of a black shadow jumping down from a tree appeared in his mind.

Everything happened too fast, until now, he realized that the black image on the tree was like a doll.

Is this space a puppet's ability?

Qi Chao chose the most likely one from all kinds of conclusions. He scratched his hair and didn't think about it anymore. The most urgent thing is to get out of here first, otherwise the children at home will be very worried.

To put it shamelessly, Qi Chao knows that he is very important to the children in the family, and he is very worried about the current situation of the children.

There is a huge space in the black shadow, Qi Chao cautiously walked forward, the more he walked, the more his eyelids became heavy, and in a trance, there seemed to be faint green light clusters floating in the darkness in front of him, like fireflies, indistinct.

Qi Chao squinted his eyelids and looked over, only to realize in a haze that there was a small tree with a faint white light in the crown planted in the middle of the green light cluster.

The height of the tree is only up to a person's knee, and the branches are intertwined, as if it has gone through countless years, with a simple and simple temperament.

No matter how you look at it, Qi Chao feels that this scene is a bit bad. His eyelids are much heavy, and he half-squinted to look at the scene in front of him.

A luminous tree suddenly appeared in the dark, no matter how you think about it, it is not normal. It is difficult for Qi Chao not to regard this tree as a danger. He knows that the most important thing for him to do at this time is to turn around and run away quickly, but it will give him a headache. What's more, he couldn't take his eyes off the tree.

What's even more strange is that looking at this small tree, Qi Chao felt a sense of familiarity and intimacy in his heart. His heart that had been on his hands since he entered the trial ground slowly relaxed, and the feeling of palpitations Also disappeared without a trace.

It seemed that the little tree in front of him was what he had been looking for.

Qi Chao didn't go up to check, but just sat where he was.

The place where the tree appeared was too strange, and I couldn't move my eyes away from the tree for the time being, so I could only keep a safe distance first.

The situation was somewhat stalemate for a while.

As if aware of Qi Chao's refusal to come over, the green light clusters lingering around Xiaoshu actively floated to Qi Chao's side. As time went by, the number increased, and soon the light clusters around Qi Chao disappeared. Several times more than those around the small trees.

Qi Chao wanted to avoid it at first, but after realizing that the light ball was not aggressive, he didn't move away.

Of course, one of the reasons why he didn't move away was that he always felt very kind when looking at these light balls.

Qi Chao rubbed his temples, the inexplicable drowsiness kept attacking his brain, he forced his eyelids open, trying to force himself to wake up, but there was always a voice deep in his heart telling him that he didn't need to resist.

Before he knew it, Qi Chao closed his eyes.

To be precise, his body fell into a deep sleep, but his consciousness was very clear. Countless scenes flashed in his mind, as if he was experiencing a movie.

He could feel the small trees not far away shaking their leaves slightly, and the green light clusters slowly floating in the air. In the darkness, they were the only light source. All of this was so familiar, as if it had been so leisurely. Like ten thousand years.

The tree in front of me is very small.

But in fact, the root system of this tree is connected to the entire Blue Star, continuously providing vitality and spiritual power to the mother stones in all the veins of the Blue Star.

This small tree has existed since Blue Star had life. It hides in the uninhabited woods, disguises itself as an ordinary big tree, and silently provides energy for all the mother stones of Blue Star.

A long memory keeps pouring into Qi Chao's mind, and the original world view is constantly being reshaped.

In just one second, Qi Chao seemed to have passed tens of thousands of years. He had experienced the transformation of the vicissitudes of life, watched the birth and shattering of countless mother stones, and watched with his own eyes the life conceived by the mother stones and turned green after falling into a deep sleep. light cluster.

Similarly, I also witnessed that the puppet who had been wronged during his lifetime turned into a murderous black shadow after falling into a deep sleep, guarding him day after day.

He was transformed into a person by relying on the mother tree. It is the mother tree, but it is not the mother tree.

Qi Chao opened his eyes, and looked at the green light clusters around him. There were only light clusters in front of him, but now Qi Chao could easily sense that these light clusters were exuding joyful emotions.

Light clusters jumping in the air filled the whole space, and some light clusters tentatively stuck to Qi Chao's skin, and after realizing that the other party did not refuse, the light around him instantly brightened.

Very well-behaved, just like the dolls at home.

In fact, these light clusters are also dead puppets.

Looking at these green light balls, Qi Chao's eyes were much gentler. He raised his eyes to look at the small tree in front of him, and walked over.

Outside the trial field, there is also a giant tree, which is one of the incarnations of the little tree. Since the core was dug out by humans, the little tree has been hiding in the shadows, and never dared to run outside in real body. .

He reached out and stroked the branches of the young tree.

Only then did he realize that the other party's branches seemed to be a little thicker.

"Are both cores back?"

Qi Chao said to himself authentically.

His dark brown eyes turned emerald green at some point, and his black hair grew to his back in just a few seconds. If you look closely, you can find that Qi Chao's canine teeth have also become slightly sharper.

The temperament is more mature than before, but there seems to be no difference.

The branches of the small tree glowing white moved without wind, as if responding to Qi Chao's words.

Looking at this scene, Qi Chao squatted down, took out a small shovel from nowhere, and loosened the soil for the young tree.

The core of the mother tree cannot be taken out of the power shifter forcefully. To take out the core, the other core of the mother tree can only be attracted to each other and taken out from the inside.

With the consent of the mother tree, it is not a big problem to lose all the cores within ten hours. This is also a necessary condition for Brother Shen to be able to take away the only remaining cores of the mother tree.

Qi Chao stared at the soil of the mother tree in a daze, his memory was still a little confused, because it took a while to digest the memory, and what he knew now was actually the thing that the mother stone remembered most clearly.

The proving ground was built by Brother Shen and his teacher.

They also did do some not-so-good things.

In Qi Chao's heart, Brother Shen is the most gentle person in the world. He is considerate and can always easily perceive the changes in his emotions, comforting him quietly. Even if he sometimes seems a little alienated to the children at home, he never would despise any child.

It is such a gentle person, in order to make up for the mistakes made by the teacher, he took over this mess and became the villain and demon in the proving ground.

It shouldn't be like this.

Qi Chao thought, Brother Shen should sit in the greenhouse, bask in the sun, and read a book quietly, instead of being feared by people like he is now.

The same is true for the children in his family, Moss, A Gu, Lan Luo, A Yu, and Chi Yao. These five children should also be happy every day, instead of being exhausted for planning every day like they are now.

Qi Chao's mood is a bit complicated.

He knows that his lover and child have done a lot wrong, but he also knows that as a part of the mother tree, he is the least qualified to complain.

In this situation, after Qi Chao left the shadow space, he looked at Brother Shen for the first time, and subconsciously moved his gaze away.

His throat was a little dry, and he hadn't figured out how to express his gratitude to Brother Shen, nor how to persuade Brother Shen to let the group of people in the trial field go.

Shen Yuxi didn't know Qi Chao's mood.

All he knew was that the man in front of him who had changed his appearance avoided his sight.

Although at the first glance, Shen Yuxi suspected that the person in front of him was not the person he was thinking of, but when the other person came out of the shadows, he knew that the person in front of him was still the extremely kind man.

"father!"

Several dolls looked up at Qi Chao, and they all noticed that their father had changed, but the breath in front of them would not deceive them, no matter how much they changed, when their father looked at them, there was still a slight smile in his eyes.

The red patterns on the faces of the dolls no longer grew. The accident just now seemed to stimulate some kind of power in their bodies. Even now, those patterns are still imprinted on their faces and have not dissipated.

Qi Chao rubbed the heads of several dolls one by one, his emerald green eyes were as quiet and gentle as a forest, no different from before, but seemed to have an extra layer of mysterious temperament.

The five dolls of Moss stood behind Shen Yuxi. They all realized that his father might have known about the proving ground, and they also realized that his father might have acquired some memories, otherwise it would be impossible to avoid his father's sight.

Did Dad not want them anymore?

These words emerged in the minds of the five puppets at the same time.

"Father."

Moss clenched the puppet in his arms, he let out a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse, he pinned his hope on his father at a loss, and wanted his father to change the current situation as soon as possible, even he forgot, the distance When was the last time you asked your father for help?

But when Moss heard his own voice, he instantly realized that something was wrong with him.

Father should be more uncomfortable than them.

At this moment, he should learn to wait instead of urging.

Perhaps Moss' voice was a bit abrupt, Qi Chao, who was comforting Li Bai Xiangyue, turned around and looked at Shen Yuxi and the puppets behind him.

The green eyes were quiet and clear, and the long black hair made people feel a little dazed for a moment. Shen Yuxi's gaze swept across, and his lips moved slightly, testing the other's current thoughts.

"Your appearance has changed."

"Ah."

The word "um" seemed alienated and indifferent, as if it had widened the distance between them.

Shen Yuxi's heart suddenly sank.

Looking at the strange yet familiar man in front of him, he felt a little depressed for the first time, and even the success of the plan didn't make him feel better.

How much did he know about the proving ground?

Are you planning to leave yourself?

If he knocked people out and took him to the basement now, wouldn't he leave him?

The thoughts in Shen Yuxi's mind followed one after another.

Qi Chao didn't know that his lover was full of extreme thoughts now, when Shen Yuxi was distracted, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, organized his words in his heart, and was going to have a good discussion with Brother Shen.

However, Qi Chao's current appearance is indeed a bit colder and more mature than before. He is obviously thinking simply. In the eyes of others, it seems as if he deliberately distanced himself from others, and there is an indescribable sense of estrangement.

Shen Yuxi's eyes became more obscure.

At the same time, after waiting for almost an afternoon, the three book travelers decided to come here to look for Qi Chao. Who would have thought that they would encounter this scene when they first arrived.

The villain's eyes were gloomy as if his husband had died.

Ten S-rank demon dolls stood in front of them, and the expressions on the faces of nearly half of them made people tremble uncontrollably.

The remaining man greeted them enthusiastically, but the three of them didn't know each other at all, and as the man's voice sounded, the villain suddenly looked at them with more murderous intent and gloom exploration.

Three people with one spirit: ...

Woohoo, it's so uncomfortable, Qi Chao, where are you, come and save us.
