He hasn't been a sister-in-law for many years

"You can recognize Bai Lingxi unexpectedly. It seems that the special investigation team has a lot of information." Jing Cong said mockingly, looking down at the man lying on the bed, the corners of his lips moved, a slight smile Fleeting.

"I'm ashamed, we don't have much information, but seeing you like this now, there's not much more." Lu Xingzhou said, "As far as I know, Bai Lingxi has been killed by you and shared with everyone. It can be considered that there are no bones left, so what is going on with this body?"

"Just as you see it."

Lu Xingzhou stared at Bai Lingxi. After the shock at first sight passed, a very strange feeling came to his heart. The body in front of him looked very peaceful, and the corners of his brows and lips seemed to be smiling. There was a creepy stiffness behind that smile.

He suddenly remembered Yan Ruyu, when he picked her up from the underworld, her body had already been cremated, and if she wanted to live in the world, she needed a body to house her soul.

This body is called a prosthesis.

Craftsmen who can make prosthetic bodies are called artisans, and the number is very small, which can be called rare.

Because the human body is an extremely complex structure - nine major systems, four major tissues, 206 bones, 639 muscles, 60 trillion cells... If you are not careful, the prosthetic body produced will have physiological defects.

The lack of regulation created unimaginable trouble for the technology in its first few years.

At that time, every day when Lu Xingzhou opened his eyes, he had to deal with hundreds of cases. It wasn't a passer-by who went out to get soy sauce and came across two hairy legs strolling all over the street, or a pair of wild mandarin ducks watched a luminous script and a human centipede climbed from the window. past.

Later, the human authorities and the underworld joined forces to crack down on the illegal creation of human beings with an iron fist, and this kind of chaos was rectified. For so many years, the production technology of prosthetic bodies has been strictly controlled by the government, and there has been no news for a long time.

Didn't expect there was one lying here.

Lu Xingzhou said expressionlessly, "If I'm not mistaken, this is not the real Bai Lingxi, it's just a prosthetic body. Come on, show me the ID."

"..." Jing Cong was taken aback, and laughed loudly: "Do you care if I need a certificate?"

"If it was customized by a regular craftsman, please show the serial number," Lu Xingzhou said with a cold expression, as if he was checking his driver's license on the road, "If you made it privately, please show the qualification certificate."

"Team Leader Lu, why are you so hypocritical?"

"Bai Lingxi died abnormally. If you can't produce a death report that can pass the review, it is impossible to apply for a customized approval letter. This prosthetic body can only be made by you without permission. However, no matter how careful you are, it is impossible to guarantee that it will not Something went wrong, so," Lu Xingzhou sneered, "It still failed in the end, didn't it? What went wrong?"

Jing Cong was forced to face the failure, his face was ashen, and he stared at him fiercely: "You are so good at guessing, can't you guess what's wrong?"

Lu Xingzhou glanced at the roots extending from the ground. These fine fibrous roots are like conduits, transporting the energy absorbed from the ground to the thorn bed under Bai Lingxi's body.

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "You need energy, a lot of energy, and the energy absorbed from the corpse is no longer enough for you, so when I came to find the skull bowl, I simply went all out and pulled me into the ground. I am a magician, Seeing such an evil thing, he will definitely attack, so the energy is continuously absorbed... After absorbing so much energy, the prosthetic body is still a prosthetic body without a soul inside—is there a problem with the fusion?"

Thorn Cong turned around and looked at the skull bowl placed above Bai Lingxi's head. The gems inlaid on the pale bones reflected dazzling fire from the thorn cage.

His face was sinister and fierce, and his eyes were like spikes. When he turned to look at the skull bowl, his eyes quietly became blank, and even the lines of his face seemed to soften a little.

Shi Yinyu put his hands in his pockets, kicked the ground boredly, and said lazily, "It's the soul that refuses to come out of the skull bowl."

"What?" Lu Xingzhou was startled.

Shi Yinyu explained: "The restriction on the bowl has been lifted. The soul should have been released long ago, but it has not entered the prosthetic body. It must be that Comrade Bai Lingxi has not lost his conscience and is unwilling to join forces with him."

A stern look flashed across Jing Cong's face, he turned his head slightly, and glanced over fiercely.

Shi Yinyu didn't notice it, or he had already noticed it but didn't take him seriously, and said to Lu Xingzhou indifferently: "Leader, think about it, who killed Bai Lingxi?"

Lu Xingzhou: "The thorns."

"Bai Lingxi lived well in seclusion in Yaocun, why did she go to Baiye City to die?"

"Come to Jing Cong."

"Bai Lingxi will die if he dies. After 20 years, he will be a good rhino again. Why can't he go to reincarnation?"

"I was imprisoned in the skull bowl by the bramble."

"Look," Shi Yinyu spread his hands, "now that guy has used some illegal means to fake a prosthetic body, and is desperately collecting energy to stimulate the fusion of the prosthetic body and soul, and wants to bring him back from the dead. What good?"

"Isn't it good to be resurrected?"

"It depends on how you live," Shi Yinyu stretched out a finger, pointed at the root system shrunk in the corner like a street aunt, and criticized, "After absorbing so many messy things, it's corpses and blood. I don’t even know if there is an infectious disease, would you like to live like this?”

Lu Xingzhou thought for a while: "If there is someone or something in the world that I am nostalgic for, I can think about it."

As soon as he said this, Jing Cong's face changed suddenly, and his hands were clenched into fists, with such force that his veins burst out.

Shi Yinyu was still babbling sarcastic words: "Now you've seen it too. After so much tossing about this guy, Bai Lingxi is still attached to the skull bowl and refuses to come out. Doesn't that mean that there is no nostalgia? It's not worth it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Cong turned around suddenly, countless thorns jumped out from all directions, and hit Shi Yinyu fiercely. He rushed over from the thorns and swung a palm at Shi Yinyu.

He is not good at physical combat due to his own efforts, but in the face of a demon with only a little power left, he is not without the power to fight, so he blocked his life's strength when he started.

The palm of the hand changed rapidly in the strong wind, the five fingers were like claws, covered with spikes, like a strong old branch of thorns, fiercely rushing straight at Shi Yinyu's face.

"You're looking for death!" Lu Xingzhou stopped Shi Yinyu behind him, his wrist shook, and the bone whip slashed down like a thunderbolt.

In an instant, broken wood splashed.

Lu Xingzhou was merciless, he smashed the thorns to pieces with one whip, and he whipped back again, wrapping the whip around the neck of the thorns and throwing him out.

"Cough...cough cough..." Jing Cong fell heavily to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

"You can't bear it if you tell the truth?" Lu Xingzhou walked over, looked down at him with pity in his eyes, "Could it not be you who brought all these disasters to Bai Lingxi?"

Jing Cong struggled to get up, wiped the remaining blood from the corner of his lips, and smiled bitterly: "The reason why I can stand in front of others and make sarcastic remarks is because nothing happened to you."

"Leader, don't talk nonsense with him," Shi Yinyu heard that his words didn't sound like good words, and subconsciously didn't want Lu Xingzhou to hear them, so he said loudly, "Just whip him to death and eliminate harm for the people!"

As he spoke, he quietly squeezed a tactic with his fingers. If Jing Cong dared to say a bad word, he would let him never have a chance to speak again.

Lu Xingzhou turned his head, looked directly at Shi Yinyu's fingers, then slowly moved up, and looked at Shi Yinyu, the warning in his eyes was very obvious.

The corners of Shi Yinyu's lips rose, and he squeezed out a brilliant smirk, and opened his hands, declaring his surrender.

Lu Xingzhou turned back.

Shi Yinyu's smirk instantly collapsed: Grandma's!You are great for helping others beat their husbands.

But with such a sensitive spiritual consciousness, there should be no other in the world except his beloved wife, but I don’t know if the body is also...

"You're right," Lu Xingzhou said, "I can stand here and make sarcastic remarks because it didn't happen to me, and it couldn't happen to me."

Jing Cong sneered: "Don't talk too much."

"If, for any reason, I have to kill my lover..."

Shi Yinyu's neck stiffened slightly, and he maintained his standing position without moving. He rolled his eyes and looked at Lu Xingzhou calmly.

Hearing his cold voice slowly said: "Then he must have committed a heinous crime and must die, otherwise, even if there are thousands of difficulties and dangers, I will protect him."

Shi Yinyu hooked the corners of his mouth and laughed silently.

Lu Xingzhou looked straight at Jing Cong: "Dare to ask the chairman, what mistake did Bai Lingxi make to be killed by you?"

"Team Leader Lu is loyal to his feelings, which is admirable," Jing Cong said indifferently, "It's just that it's ridiculous for you to compare your lover to Bai Lingxi. He and I are not in the same relationship as you and the leader."

Lu Xingzhou was surprised: "Oh?"

"Hey, tell me clearly, what does the leader have to do with me?" Shi Yinyu's attention went astray.

Jing Cong looked down at Bai Lingxi, slowly knelt down on one knee, with his dry fingers hanging in the air for a moment, touched the thorn leaves next to him, and said in a hoarse voice: "The biggest mistake Lingxi made in his life was to save me. But Mo, is it a new thing to repay kindness and revenge? The chairman needs a hundred-year-old rhinoceros hide to treat his adoptive father, and I happen to know such a Tongtian rhinoceros, so killing him is only a matter of course."

Lu Xingzhou remained expressionless: "Since killing him is a matter of course, why do you have to take so much trouble to revive him?"

"I want him to die as I want, and I want him to live as I want."

"But now it seems that he doesn't want to live."

"It's up to him!" Jing Cong said fiercely, "Forcibly urging the fusion of the prosthetic body and soul is not difficult for me."

Pa, pa, pa... Shi Yinyu slapped his hands lazily a few times, and said coolly, "It's amazing."

Jing Cong turned his head abruptly, and glanced at him fiercely from the corner of his eyes.

I heard Shi Yinyu say slowly: "You said that you and Bai Lingxi are not the relationship between the leader and me - no matter what the relationship between the leader and me is - you are trying to say that you are a bastard who repays kindness and revenge, and Bai Lingxi rescued him back then. You're his blind, aren't you?"

"What do you want to say?"

"I want to say, what is the relationship between you and Bai Lingxi? Others don't care at all. No one cares about you that much, young man. On the contrary, you clarify it so solemnly, which makes people even more suspicious, just like Zhang San's wife. Tell him solemnly, the child is yours, the child is yours, the child is yours, and if you say important things three times, will Zhang San be more suspicious of the old Wang next door?"

What the hell kind of example is this?

Lu Xingzhou gave him a speechless glance, and cursed softly: "Don't make trouble..."

"This is not to add to the confusion, it's just my shallow opinion as a bystander," Shi Yinyu said, "Leader, you think, no matter what relationship he has with Bai Lingxi, he is already doomed. The dead souls and the corpses under the ground are all looking at him, at this time, instead of trying to justify his guilt, he has repeatedly emphasized that he and Bai Lingxi are not in that kind of relationship, isn't it a little bit of putting the cart before the horse?"

Lu Xingzhou nodded: "Not bad."

"So I think... maybe our Chairman Jing's reputation is more important than life?" Shi Yinyu's lips were smiling, but his eyes were as indifferent as rime on a snow-capped mountain. He mocked in a cold tone, "It's really starving to death, it's a small injustice, it's a big thing, the director's actions should make those monsters who do everything they can to survive feel ashamed."

Lu Xingzhou thoughtfully, looked up at the beautiful and strange prosthetic body on the thorn bed, and murmured: "Perhaps, what the chairman wants to keep is not his own reputation, but Bai Lingxi's..."

"Ridiculous!" Jing Cong interrupted him, "Your self-righteousness makes me feel ridiculous."

Shi Yinyu said to Lu Xingzhou: "Look, leader, the powerless refutation... Hey, what are you going to do?"

Jing Cong hurriedly stood up, looking at him with resentment in his eyes.

Lu Xingzhou took a step forward, put Shi Yinyu behind him calmly, and said to Jing Cong: "Everyone has secrets, and I have no intention of exploring your secrets. The whole thing is for you , It’s the joys and sorrows of self-knowledge, for me, it’s just a job.”

"Give it up, Jing Cong, I will send Bai Lingxi to reincarnation, let him reincarnate."

Jing Cong lowered his head slightly, his hair covered a shadow under his eyes, only his pale and thin chin was exposed, he lowered his eyes, remained silent for a while, then slowly turned his face, looked at Lu Xingzhou with sharp eyes like sharp thorns, and said softly: "What if I say no?"
