Chapter 369 Antiques and Cats

A few years ago, when Lu Linbei rescued Chen Manchi in Zicheng, he had doubts and felt that victory would come too easily. It was not until he returned to Zhai Wang that Chen Manchi underwent multiple inspections and found no problems that he was completely relieved. .

Occasionally, he would still think of this incident and always comforted himself not to worry too much. Both Guihai and Guan Zhuqian were people with great ambitions and would not care too much about personal grudges.

Nearly four years have passed, and Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi have come a long way. Guan Zhuqian's words suddenly pulled him back to where they were.

The rage in Lu Linbei's heart almost burned him to ashes, and he had to use all his willpower to barely control the urge to kill.

Without weapons, he is no match for the fused man Sekitake.

Opposite Guan Zhuqian smiled and even leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees, observing every subtle change of Lu Linbei with great interest. After a long time, she spoke again, her tone was as relaxed as if she was still chatting, " Don’t say something? Any words, there are not many times when I am so honest, maybe this is the only time in my life.”

"What are they putting in Slow Chi's mind?" Lu Linbei's anger has been extinguished and he no longer has the power to self-destruct, which makes his voice as calm as usual.

Anger should be used to burn the enemy, Lu Linbei warned himself repeatedly.

"Some code."

"Experts have carefully examined it and found no abnormalities."

"Of course there is no abnormality, because it is just a code fragment, not a single line is complete and coherent. It is written with biotechnology and perfectly integrated with human cells. There is no flaw in the appearance. Only under certain circumstances, those codes will take effect. Chen Man Keep Chi under control."

"For example, when connecting with the brains of Jiazi people."

"Yes, and it needs to reach a certain amount. I don't know the more specific situation."

"Why? Manchi poses no threat to Jiazixing and has no use value. Is it just for revenge?"

"Retaliation? You mean Guihai? Well, he is no longer the Zhao Didian back then. After returning to Jiazi Planet, he retrieved many previously hidden codes and restored his true nature. He was more like a leader, but he inherited All the memories and emotions of Zhao Didian. Therefore, he does hate Chen Manchi, and you, the person who has made him embarrassed several times. But he is Guihai, and will not use Zhao Didian's methods to avenge his enemies. He instructed the system to use Chen Manchi's Writing the program in Chi’s head has a more profound purpose.”

Lu Linbei waited for her to continue, but Guan Zhuqian was not in a hurry. He slowly stood up and returned to his original sitting posture. "Programs have a completely different concept of time than humans. When they start actions, they use milliseconds as the unit of calculation. When they make plans, They only care about the calculation results and don’t care about how long it will take, whether it’s one year or a hundred years, it doesn’t make much difference to them.”

"I'm afraid Chen Manchi will not be able to carry those codes a hundred years from now."

"Guihai's calculation is eight to fifteen years."

"What will happen then?"

"Do you believe in fate?"

"What kind of fate? The one that Slow Chi is good at? Well, I believe it."

"She can't hear you, so there's no need to be so cautious." Guan Zhuqian said with a smile, then returned to seriousness, "It's not the kind of fate that fortune tellers make up, but a fate that can be calculated."

Lu Linbei shook his head, "I don't believe that fate can be calculated. I think that fate is in a state of chaos, which is another way of saying and describing probability."

"That's right, fate is probability. Probability can be calculated, so fate can too."

"Guihai hid a code in Manchi's mind because of something that might happen?" Lu Linbei found it unbelievable, but also felt that this was something Guihai would do.

"The so-called foolproof strategy is to prepare as much as possible for all kinds of things that will happen. Guihai is especially good at this."

"According to Guihai's calculations, what will happen to Manchi in eight to fifteen years?"

Guan Zhuqian showed an inscrutable expression, "This 'maybe' did not happen to Chen Manchi, but to you."

"Huh?" Lu Linbei became more and more confused as he listened, "Am I so important? Do I deserve Guihai to do calculations specifically for me?"

"This is exactly the result of Gui Hai's calculation. In eight to fifteen years, you 'may' become very important."

Lu Linbei frowned, "If I had the chance, I would thank Guihai for attaching great importance to me, but he was wrong. Did he expect that I would withdraw from the family and the intelligence community? I don't think so, so his calculations started from the first One step is wrong, and it will only become more and more wrong in the future, unless he believes that earth history will one day become a high-profile science."

"Guihai has never explained the specific calculation process, so I can't judge whether it is right or wrong. I only know that four years later, he still values ​​you, much more than before."

"That's because he wanted to prove himself too much, so he deliberately promoted me. There is a saying for this kind of behavior, which is called 'self-fulfilling prophecy.' This is exactly what Guihai did. He made a prediction and then worked hard to realize it. ."

"No matter what his name is, Guihai is very serious."

"So, before I even arrived at Jiazi Star, Guihai 'calculated' that I would rescue Manchi?"

"It's either you or someone else. In short, Chen Man will come back to you sooner or later, and it's the perfect 'possibility' for you to rescue her."

Lu Linbei smiled and began to think that it would be good to pass the time with such a conversation, just like friends sitting in a circle and telling ghost stories to each other, "In Guihai's calculations, how important can I be? Chairman of the Planet ?"

"I don't know. At that time, I was the first ordinary human to undergo fusion transformation. Guihai had just recovered his true form and had not yet made a plan to recruit fusion people on a large scale. He paid more attention to me and regarded me as a real Zicheng sister. He treated me I rarely hide anything. That’s no longer possible. The number of fusion people is getting larger and larger. I have been away from Zicheng for many years. I am far away from the system and cannot contact Guihai, let alone his ideas."

Lu Linbei shook his head, "It's useless."

"Gui Hai's calculations are always very accurate. Whether it will be useful or not will be known when the time comes."

"I said it's useless for you to attract the attention of those two people. They won't believe you."

Guan Zhuqian looked around and raised his voice slightly, "They don't need to believe me. Guihai's various performances will prove my words."

"These two people can be said to be the people Guihai trusts the most. If Guihai really has such a calculation, he can tell them directly."

"No, you just said a word, 'self-fulfilling prophecy.' Guihai understands this truth, so when he intervenes, he will find other reasons, such as your unique brain instead of his own calculations. Guihai Jue I will never tell anyone about this matter again, especially Wang Chenwan and Mei Litao, they have too strong influence on your destiny, and the more you know, the greater the changes."

"Yes, they can kill me at any time and end my 'destiny'."

"Then let Guihai's calculation become a joke. Of course, Guihai will not say anything, because he is a logical person and admits that no matter how accurate the calculation is, there will be mistakes, but he will be dissatisfied because he has already made The implication is, claiming to want your digital brain, only to have your more important physical brain destroyed.”

"It's like an old story. It says that an antique dealer happened to see a house feeding cats with an antique plate when he was wandering in the countryside. The businessman wanted to buy the plate, but he was worried about telling the truth about the plate. After the real value is determined, the other party will sit down and raise the price, so he pretends to like the cat very much and wants to buy it at a high price. It is an ordinary cat, and the owner is of course willing. The businessman also said that he would go a long way, hoping to buy the cat's daily utensils Buy them together so that they can be taken care of on the road. The owner even said it was no problem and asked the businessman to wait for a while while he took the cat and the food tray into the house to clean up. The businessman was very proud and began to calculate the value of the antique in his mind, thinking that he could make a lot of money. . Not long after, the owner came out and handed the cat and a bag of things to the businessman. The businessman was secretly happy. He held the cat in one hand and checked the bag with the other. He found that the plate was not in it, so he asked where the food plate was. The owner smiled. He said, "You paid so much money, how can I give you such an old plate? I specially found a new plate for you." The businessman couldn't laugh or cry, saying that he was worried that the cat wouldn't like the new plate, and still wanted to use the old one. The owner said, "You should have used it early." Say, I thought the old plates were useless and had been broken and thrown into the trash can.”

Guan Zhuqian told it vividly, as if this was her social secret, and as long as she told this story, she could win new friends for herself.

Lu Linbei listened quietly.

Mei Wangzhen, who was sleeping on the other sofa, woke up at some point and interjected: "Then what? The businessman wants to take away the pieces and stick them together again when he goes back?"

Guan Zhuqian looked at Mei Wangzhen and said with a smile: "Where did you start listening?"

"You said that when merchants secretly calculate the value of antiques."

"Have you heard this story before?"

"No."

"Well, the plate can't be glued together, or once it's glued, it doesn't have antique value. That's not the core of the story."

Mei Wangzhen hummed, still lying on the sofa. She hadn't slept enough and didn't want to get up.

"Have you heard this story?" Guan Zhuqian asked the person opposite.

Lu Linbei nodded and said: "I've heard it before, and I've heard another version: the businessman handed over the money, hugged the cat, pretended to be casual, and said give me the plate, I can use it on the road, and the owner immediately collected the plate. Come on, say that’s not possible, I’m just selling cats on this plate.”

Mei Wangzhen finally sat up and said with a smile: "This version is more interesting."

Guan Zhuqian said: "I also hope it is this version. The plate does not need to be broken. Although both parties have misunderstandings, they both understand the true value of the plate. I also hope that the cat can have a good ending and lose the added value of the antique plate. The merchant What will you do with it? Throw it away? Kill it? Repackage it and sell it to someone else?"

Mei Wangzhen finally understood, "Are we two cats? Who is the plate? Is it Lao Bei? He...is an antique?"

Guan Zhuqian stood up and said with a smile: "It's just a story, don't take it personally..."

boom! There was an explosion sound outside, and the ground shook slightly.

The three of them looked out the window at the same time and saw a nearly three-meter-long drone leaning diagonally in the courtyard, being engulfed by the flames caused by the explosion.
