Chapter 152 The Prophet's Shop

prophecy?Bai Jianxiao suddenly thought of what Lu Zhiqiong said: He was taken by an angel to meet a prophet, and then he got a prophecy about the future...

"Is that there?" Bai Jianxiao tugged at his sleeve.

"Yes, this is the store!" Lu Zhiqiong's eyes lit up, "Let's go down and have a look."

"Let's go to the TV tower first, in case Ou Yezi hasn't left yet," Bai Jianxiao suggested, "Anyway, this store is here, so it's not too late to come back later."

Lu Zhiqiong let out a "hmm" and continued to drive towards the TV tower.However, this time, Bai Jianxiao felt that he was driving more slowly, and asked doubtfully, "Is the car out of gas?"

"No, the fuel tank is almost full." Lu Zhiqiong also felt uncomfortable all over, as if he had never let go of the gas pedal, but he couldn't exert any force.

"No," Bai Jianxiao was even more confused, "We have to hurry to the TV tower now, why are you driving so slowly?"

"I didn't drive slowly." Lu Zhiqiong innocently pointed at the dashboard, keeping the speed at 160.

"Are you saying that you haven't slowed down?" Bai Jianxiao asked, "Didn't you park your car just now because you felt the neighborhood was familiar? Then I saw that fortune-telling shop... "

"No, I haven't even stepped on the brakes." Lu Zhiqiong thought this conversation was too weird, "I'm rushing to the TV tower, how could I slow down?"

"You're in reverse gear!" Bai Jianxiao said in disbelief.

"I shifted gears, but I didn't reverse the car." Lu Zhiqiong's voice became serious, and now they all felt that something was wrong. At least one of them had cognitive dissonance or hallucinations.

Bai Jianxiao thought about it, he really didn't pay attention to what gear Lu Zhiqiong was in, just because the car was going backwards, he took it for granted that it was a backing up, "But the car was obviously going back just now..."

"At least in my cognition, I have been accelerating." Lu Zhiqiong said.He didn't lie, the engine of the off-road vehicle was roaring, the wind was howling, they were driving on the road at an extremely fast speed, and the buildings outside the car window had already turned into gray speed lines, it didn't seem like they were slowing down at all look.

Then why do you feel that your speed has slowed down?Bai Jianxiao looked left and right, and when he saw the TV tower in front of him, he finally understood: They were driving so fast, but they never got close to the TV tower in front of them!They are like walking forward on a high-speed backward treadmill, running hard but can't move forward at all!

Fascinated, Bai Jianxiao and Lu Zhiqiong looked back at the same time. Five minutes after they drove out, the fortune-telling shop was still not far behind them. The glass windows were shining brightly in the golden orange morning light.

"When did it start to slow down?" Lu Zhiqiong asked in a low voice.

"It was just when we passed that store, it was almost dawn," Bai Jianxiao said, "I said, obviously according to my calculations, we would definitely reach the TV tower before dawn, but we were walking to this block. Time is stuck."

"It should be caused by the capable person." Lu Zhiqiong slammed on the brakes and stopped the car in the middle of the road, "It seems that if I don't go, I will meet her."

"Be careful," Bai Jianxiao said with a sense of uneasiness stuck in his back like a needle, stronger than before when he faced the ghost behind him, "I always feel that this guy's ability is related to time..."

"Good morning, citizens, it's another new day!" A loud voice suddenly exploded above their heads, Bai Jianxiao looked up, and saw a face above the TV tower speaking, "I am your friend Di Jun , I am very glad to see that everyone is still full of energy, and continue to strive to create a beautiful paradise!"

This face is completely different from the rigidity of the night, the expression on the face is rich and natural, and the broadcast is also correct, like a conscientious morning news anchor—if it does not appear in such a weird way.

"Citizens, first of all, I want to announce a bad news. A few little mice came into the paradise recently. I hope everyone can work together to catch them!" Di Jun's voice echoed in the empty streets, but Bai Jianxiao knew that there were many ears Listening to him, "But remember to keep civilized, please bring them directly to the temple, and those who have made contributions to the paradise can be unconditionally pardoned for an 'endless day'."

civilization?When those guys attack the same kind, they always kill them directly. How can there be any civilization at all?Bai Jianxiao murmured to himself while listening, what does "endless daylight" mean?

The morning broadcast ended quickly, and Di Jun didn't say anything more valuable, but just kept repeating the nonsense of trying to build a paradise. It seems that it is difficult for this empty city to have any news.His face flickered a few times before disappearing from the sky.

The TV tower is absolutely necessary, but the current plan is to find a way to escape from this street. Bai Jianxiao and Lu Zhiqiong got out of the car and came to the entrance of the prophet's shop.The store looks very lively, with cartoon stickers on the door and jingling wind chimes hanging on it. Although the door is made of glass, it is difficult to see the situation inside.

Just as he was hesitating whether to go in, Lu Zhiqiong suddenly turned around, "There is someone!"

Bai Jianxiao's heart skipped a beat, and she also turned her head, only to see a graceful woman walking slowly towards the corner of the street. She was covered with a veil and her face could not be seen clearly, but there was a smile in her voice: "Come here! , won't you go in and have a look?"

"Are you the owner of this shop?" Bai Jianxiao asked, "A prophet?"

"It's me." The woman was wearing a gypsy-like golden print dress, her slender waist was tied up with a gemstone-encrusted belt, her hair was black and shiny, and it was tied into a complicated bun at the back of her head, with strands hanging down behind her head Long braids, pearls and jade jingle as they walk.

At first glance, she left an indelible impression on Bai Jianxiao's heart, even though she didn't even know what her face looked like.Since entering the paradise, they have encountered either a group of zombie-like angels, or a group of lingering children, or the crazy living dead like Ling Ge. It is hard to imagine that there will be such a woman in this city. Xianxin dresses herself up carefully, as if she has a good life, has nothing to worry about, and is able to handle everything with ease.

Lu Zhiqiong kept silent, just staring at her in a daze, and the prophet ignored their burning eyes, and pushed open the door of the small shop, "Sorry, the small shop is deserted, I'm late, and the guests didn't have to wait long Bar?"

"No..." Bai Jianxiao hesitated for a moment, but followed him in. The store was still small, with only room for a small sofa and a solid wooden table, but the decoration was very warm, with all kinds of decorations hanging on the walls. Various decorative pictures, and a gramophone in the corner.The prophet played the record, and the melodious and soothing classical music sounded.

"Is the business of your store very deserted?" Lu Zhiqiong asked abruptly, "I thought that with this method of retaining customers, it wouldn't be impossible to open."

The prophet seemed not to understand his sarcasm, and said with a smile: "This is a courtesy only for distinguished guests, please sit down."

Bai Jianxiao sat down. The sofa was too soft, and he almost sank into it. His bones, which had been hardened by the difficult environment, could no longer get used to this comfort, and he felt that everything was wrong.He grabbed a pillow and hugged it in his arms. Although the side was still empty, Lu Zhiqiong sat down next to him, squeezing him into a small corner that could be surrounded by his arms.

The prophet leaned on the armchair opposite, "Where should I start..."

"Why don't you introduce yourself first?" Lu Zhiqiong suggested.

"You are still so straightforward, Lu Zhiqiong," the prophet turned to him, "but you are much more polite than last time."

"What did I say last time?" Lu Zhiqiong asked.

"I didn't say anything, I came in and planned to beat me up, tie me up and torture me to extract a confession..." As he spoke, the prophet laughed, leaning back and forth, and the gems dangled wildly.Bai Jianxiao felt that she was a little abnormally excited, as if she was so happy just talking to people.

"Ah, of course," Lu Zhiqiong also responded with a smile, "After all, I am also a family man, so it's okay to lose focus."

Amidst the soothing music, he keenly heard the whispers outside. People gathered near the prophet's shop, talking in low voices: "The rat is inside..."

"What to do? Who will go in and catch them out?"

"No! That's the prophet's shop!"

"Wait until it gets dark, wait until it gets dark, you can't do anything during the day..."

Knowing that the target is in the store, this group of masters who have already boarded the paradise dare not approach. Who is this prophet?Lu Zhiqiong had many doubts in his heart, he could not feel that the woman in front of him had any mastery temperament, nor any hostility - she was even very kind and friendly, playing the role of an old friend who had been away for many years.

She is just mysterious, and mystery is often the biggest threat. Lu Zhiqiong warned himself that he must never let go of his vigilance. He began to seriously consider the plan he implemented last time: beat him up, tie him up, and then he can talk about anything... …

"Can you tell me what happened the last time Lu Zhiqiong came?" Bai Jianxiao asked politely, "As you can see, we came here to find the truth."

"The truth about that program in your body?" the seer asked.

Bai Jianxiao was taken aback. He didn't expect her to directly point out the biggest worry in his heart. He no longer kept secrets, and readily admitted: "Yes, there is also the truth about angels, about prisons, and all mysteries."

"Of course, of course, you will know the answer soon," the prophet stood up abruptly, stepping barefoot on the back of the armchair, maintaining a dangerous balance.She stretched her arms and twisted a crystal ball from the roof, "Look, this is the store's surveillance camera. I think there should still be images from a year ago."

The crystal ball was the size of a skull and made of glass-like material. The prophet lightly brushed over it, and a figure suddenly appeared inside, it was Lu Zhiqiong!At that time, he was still black-haired and black-eyed, and he was following an angel into the shop.

Bai Jianxiao took a closer look, the angel leading the sky of landing was not Ou Yezi!

Lu Zhiqiong was also very surprised, he didn't expect that he lost such an important part of his memory, it turned out that he had seen Ou Yezi in the paradise a long time ago!

They still wanted to watch, but the prophet suddenly leaned over and hugged the crystal ball, his gorgeous long sleeves completely covered the picture.

"Before you read any further," she said, "promise me one small request."

"any request?"

"After reading it, both of you must make a choice." The prophet said, "Just like all people who come to Paradise must make a choice, should they stay in Paradise, or return to the world without memory?"

After witnessing everything in the paradise, Bai Jianxiao would naturally choose to return to the human world, but from the mysterious tone of the prophet, he heard that the whole thing was not that simple.

"I chose to lose my memory and return to the human world last time, right?" Lu Zhiqiong asked, "If I stay, I'm afraid I will become like Ling Ge sooner or later."

"No, no, your choice is not that simple," the prophet said meaningfully. She let go of the crystal ball and leaned back on the chair. "Look, and then give me your answers."
