The old man was so angry that he was about to die.

“…”

History always repeats itself in a surprising way. Looking at the man in front of him, who looked like charcoal, Xu Ziling fell silent as soon as he opened his mouth.

But the other party's reaction also made Xu Ziling directly confirm the identity of the person in front of him.

Looking at the entire Collapse World, apart from Brother Jie, there are probably not many people who can have such a high level of cultural literacy.

But Xu Ziling couldn't just say that he knew the other party and wanted to take him away, as that would be no different from self-destruction. After thinking for a while, Xu Ziling still showed the appearance of a foreigner, and asked with a puzzled look on his face:

“It’s so late... Aren’t you going home?”

Hearing this, the man's expression suddenly froze.

It wasn't because Xu Ziling's question touched his wound, nor was it for any other reason. The reason why the man froze now was really just because of a very simple reason...

——He didn't understand what Xu Ziling said.

Just now, when he heard the strange voice in his ear, the man didn't listen carefully and directly replied with a "get lost". Now that he heard the words of the voice clearly, the man was surprised that the other party used a language he didn't understand at all.

Damn it! What is this silly woman nagging about? Why can't I understand a word she says? Aren't she and those villagers the same creature?

The man didn't understand, but he knew he couldn't let the woman down, so he spoke again:

"Get lost."

"This..."

Xu Ziling noticed the man's expression and reacted. He smiled embarrassedly and said,

"Ahem, sorry, I've lived in Mu with the doctor for a long time, and I subconsciously use Mu's language. Wait for me to think about it, ahem..."

Xu Ziling quickly searched for memories in his mind. Although the DNA mimicry has disappeared with the silence of the rational core, the DNA that has been fused will be transformed into knowledge and merged into Xu Ziling's memory over time. These memories will not be silent with the silence of the core.

After quickly recalling the Su language based on the DNA of several Su people he had emulated, Xu Ziling tactically coughed twice and said:

"Ahem... Now you should be able to understand what I said. I'm very sorry to disturb you, but why are you tied up here? Your body is still bleeding, you may need help."

"..."

The man fell silent again.

It wasn't because Xu Ziling's question touched the man's minefield, nor was it because he didn't want to answer Xu Ziling's question. The reason why he was silent was really... just a very simple reason.

——He still couldn't understand what Xu Ziling was saying.

Yes, although he had been tied up in this mountain village for a while, the mountain people had almost never taken the initiative to talk to him. This made it difficult for the man to adapt to the local language, otherwise he wouldn't have understood "get out" as a greeting to others.

Simple words and sentences are fine, but once they become complicated... the man doesn't understand them at all.

For example... "help"? What help? What does this word mean? Damn, it's okay that the weather in this world is cold, but why is it so hard to speak!

But looking at the blond and blue-eyed delicate woman in front of him, the man would never reveal the fact that he was not well-educated to a mere woman, so he tilted his neck and said in a scrutinizing tone:

"...Are you not from the village?"

"Yes...I am not."

After his body was fully repaired, although Xu Ziling's combat power could not reach the peak, with the black tower's puppet body that would not get tired and was immune to most external injuries and Kafka's word spirit technique, his combat power could still crush 99% of ordinary people. Xu Ziling was very brave, so he said frankly,

"How should I put it... I was originally from another continent, and because of some force majeure, I fell on this snowy plain. It is probably impossible to leave here with my legs alone, so I thought about whether I could find some kind people to send me back to the civilized city, so I found here along the mountain road. And you are the first person I saw."

As he said, Xu Ziling looked around. The night in Siberia was particularly cold. Today, it was dark, and few people stayed outside, so no one noticed Xu Ziling here.

"By the way, I don't know your name yet."

Originally, because I couldn't hear

The man who understood Xu Ziling's words and felt his scalp tingling, was stunned for a moment after hearing the word "name", and then he spoke vaguely:

"Qianjie... This is how they call me, you should call me that too."

"Qianjie..."

At this moment, Xu Ziling really looked like a stranger who had been stranded here due to an accident. He said,

"What a domineering name... Then Mr. Qianjie, why are you tied here? Your body is still bleeding... Do you need help? I know a little about medical methods."

"..."

Qianjie fell silent again.

And the reason for silence is always surprisingly consistent...

It's not because of ()... but because he, Qianjie... can't read! !

But it is absolutely impossible for Qianjie to confess to Xu Ziling, a "woman", that he can't read a single word and can't even speak properly! ,

So Qianjie used the few words he knew to piece together words that might not be fluent, and said with a stiff neck:

"Woman, if you know my name, get out! Asking will do you no good!"

"Hmm..."

Hearing that Qianjie also regarded him as a blonde, Xu Ziling's face flashed a trace of unnaturalness. Considering that Qianjie was not like Gray Xiu, they would inevitably have more exchanges in the future, Xu Ziling also explained,

"That... Mr. Qianjie, in fact, I am a man like you, but my face is a little softer, which is not worth worrying about."

"Man?"

It can be seen with the naked eye that although Qianjie's face was burnt black so that others could not see his face clearly, his tone revealed the fact that he was surprised and astonished at the moment.

Afterwards, Qianjie quickly sorted out his thoughts, recalled those young people who often traveled between the city and the village, recalled the words they boasted, and Qianjie said:

"...You... Mulan?"

"...You still know Mulan?"

"I don't know."

Qianjie shook his head very straightforwardly, and then said vaguely,

"Just, listen, the mountain people, bragging. They said, Dongfang, that Hua, a woman pretending to be a man, isn't this, you...not right! You...you!"

Qianjie seemed to have suddenly discovered something, and his tone instantly became sharp.

In an instant, Qianjie's arm was pulled out from the wooden stake that bound him like lightning, and he grabbed Xu Ziling's wrist. His charred face was waiting for Xu Ziling's hand, and he said, "You... are not human at all! I don't remember that the body structure of human beings looks like this! Damn it! What are you doing here, a non-human creature! If you dare to destroy this place, no matter you are a man or a woman, a human or a non-human, I will kill you!!" "This..." Xu Ziling followed Qianjie's gaze and found that Qianjie was looking at his wrist... To be precise, it was the mechanical joints that became like a mechanical puppet after he turned on his human body to be immune to wind, cold and snow blindness... Looking at Qianjie's fierce and serious look, Xu Ziling suddenly felt tired. Xu Ziling: ┐(‘~`;)┌
