Trafford’s Trading Club

In the water prison, most of Jimmy's expressions were still angry...but starting from the question of 'Tang Tianlin', a trace of panic quietly appeared.

"How do you know the perfect person..."

'Tang Tianlin' said calmly: "Is it strange...or have you forgotten who was in the original laboratory?"

Jimmy lowered his head and said nothing.

The original laboratory... Will Douglas, Qin Zheng, Nan Xiaonan... several names flashed through his mind in an instant.

"I don't know." Jimmy raised his head, "House, he never told me about perfect human cells... I'm just a tool in his hand. Do you think he told me everything he has?" The secret?"

'Tang Tianlin' said coldly: "If you are really just a personal assistant around House...it's a pity that you are not."

Jimmy frowned. In the current situation, he was at an absolute disadvantage. Life and death were in the hands of the other party - but as long as this guy was interested in perfect cells, at least he still had a chance to negotiate... Even though he really didn't know House hid the cells somewhere.

"I am indeed just House's self-confessed assistant." Jimmy shook his head, "Did you misunderstand something? Do you think I can be his illegitimate son?"

'Tang Tianlin' glanced at Jimmy and seemed to be a little surprised, "So you don't know your identity yet... That's right. With House's suspicious and distrustful character, he really won't tell you this matter."

"Qin Zheng! Why don't you just play riddles with me here!!" He roared with all his strength.

'Tang Tianlin' sighed, "It's okay to tell you... I said, you are just House's first failure - and moreover, you were the first laboratory, created by me and my teacher. of."

"You're talking nonsense!!!" Jimmy's expression suddenly became extremely angry...angry and frightened.

'Tang Tianlin' said calmly: "That's the fact. Cloning technology has been around for a long time. Why do you think House waited until today to really start planning? House does want to live forever, but the original concept was not what it is now. , consciousness enters a brand new body... Of course, it turns out that this thing is impossible, at least according to the current human technology, it is simply impossible to do. Therefore, since my teacher was captured, in the past few years, For the entire time, House is just living in a nightmare that he may not wake up from at any time."

"I don't know what you said, I don't know what you said..." Jimmy's voice trembled... Something he had never thought about... made him feel terrible.

"Don't you feel weird yourself?" Tang Tianlin sneered: "You should know his character best when you are with House and helping him do things. Let me explain clearly... Why do you think you have the right to do things for him? Can you be reused by House? Do you think your ability is really outstanding and surpasses everyone?"

"I……"

"You are just the earliest cloned substitute of House." 'Tang Tianlin' looked at the other party with pity: "In the beginning, House didn't want to transfer consciousness... He just wanted to have a complete and healthy body, which can Just provide him with fresh organs at any time that are completely consistent with his genes and will not be rejected. To put it simply, you are a part created by House. Even, you are still the last resort for House, if If he really can't survive until this experiment is successful, you will probably be sent to the operating table to provide enough organs for his body."

"You are talking nonsense!!!" Jimmy roared: "I am me, I am Tang Tianlin, I am nobody!!! I have complete memory, from birth to now!"

"Don't kid yourself... Do you remember what happened before you were ten years old?" 'Tang Tianlin' shook his head: "The only memories you have really experienced are these few years. Before that, you have been undergoing a kind of hypnosis since you were born. .We couldn’t transfer consciousness at the time, but it was still possible to use hypnosis and drugs to give you a relatively complete life.”

"Nonsense!! Nonsense!! Nonsense!!!!!"

He frantically stirred the water prison with the chain, causing water to splash.

But 'Tang Tianlin' took out a kerosene lighter from his clothes at this time, opened it and closed it, and the sound of metal hitting was so clear.

Jimmy didn't know what he was doing. Like a beast, he rushed to the edge of the water prison and tried to climb up... to no avail. His nails even fell off because his claws were on the wall.

'Tang Tianlin' was expressionless and just slowly spoke some unrelated words with unclear meanings in various languages, "snake, butterfly, paper, leonardo-da-vinci, 17, femme, la-libertà-di.”

Jimmy, who was almost out of control, slowly became quiet with the sound of 'Tang Tianlin' and the banging of the lighter. In the end, he even stood motionless in the water.

'Tang Tianlin' finally said: "粲り回し."

Jimmy seemed to be wound up in an instant, but his eyes were empty, but his voice continued slowly, "snake, butterfly, paper, leonardo-da-vinci, 17, femme, la-libertà-di...粲り回し."

'Tang Tianlin' smiled slightly at this time, put away the lighter, looked at Jimmy and whispered: "Welcome back... No. 1, do you still remember me? I am Qin Zheng."

"Hello, Mr. Qin..." Jimmy said every word, his eyes still empty.

"I need information about perfect human cells." 'Tang Tianlin' said slowly: "Just tell me how much House has told you."

"He never told me anything about perfect human cells." Jimmy said slowly.

'Tang Tianlin' frowned and said, "But you obviously know about perfect human cells."

Jimmy raised his head little by little, "This is the information I got accidentally. It was the news about perfect cells that I heard when House was talking to others on the phone again."

"Phone? Do you still remember the content?" 'Tang Tianlin' asked, staring.

Jimmy said: "The saint...ceremony...he seems to be begging the person on the other side of the phone, hoping that the other person can help him, get rid of the pain of illness, and hope to be able to accept the first..."

"Accept... Chu?" 'Tang Tianlin' frowned. Jimmy stopped at this time. He couldn't help but ask: "What is Chu?"

Jimmy shook his head, "He found me outside and immediately cut off the call. Since then, he rarely talks to people on the phone in front of me."

"Accept... Chu." 'Tang Tianlin' walked back and forth on the water prison and whispered: "Saint... ceremony?"

'Tang Tianlin' suddenly turned around and looked at Jimmy: "Since you felt strange, didn't you do something?"

Jimmy was completely in a state of asking and answering, thinking slowly, and then slowly said: "I have traced the source of the call...it is a call from the UK, probably Middlesbrough."

'Tang Tianlin' pondered: "Has House been to Middlesbrough in the past few years?"

Jimmy shook his head, "He has been in China during this period and has never left."

‘Tang Tianlin’ then asked: “Does he have any secret industry in the UK?”

Jimmy said directly: "He has a manor in Middlesbrough, two other ranches, two yachts and a private jet."

'Tang Tianlin' looked at Jimmy for a while, then slowly breathed out. He took out the lighter again and made it make the same rhythmic sound. At the same time, he reversed the disordered and meaningless words he had said before and read them again. "...粲り回し."

"La-libertà-di, femme, 17..."

While Jimmy was repeating these words, 'Tang Tianlin' had quietly left the water prison.

Until Jimmy finally said slowly: "粲り回し."

His body shook in vain, and his empty eyes returned to clarity. Feeling the cold water and the pain from his fingers... he roared again.

He couldn't remember what happened... when the other party left, and he didn't even know, but the feeling of being manipulated made him feel unprecedented... scared!

…

When 'Tang Tianlin' returned to the above-ground office and closed the secret passage, more than an hour had passed.

He sat alone in this luxurious office, seeming to be thinking about something, and said to himself: "The woman that night seemed to be Xiao Nan... But how could Xiao Nan reach out so well? Couldn't it be... No, the voice, the reminder, and the face shape are almost the same. Even if there is something to hide it, I shouldn’t be able to admit it..."

He breathed out slowly and stood up, "Maybe I should get in touch with Xiaonan...as Tang Tianlin. But, not now..."

Thinking of this, he pressed the phone on the table and said, "Prepare a car for me."

"Assistant Tang, where are you going?"

'Tang Tianlin' thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the hospital. I want to see Mr. House's condition."

"Okay, Assistant Tang."

…

…

Beijing time, pm, 22:23.

The building called the Temple of Heaven has turned off all its decorative lights... and the tourists have dispersed. The place seemed empty, extremely empty.

Above the huge round altar was the gloomy night sky.

A young man in his twenties with a Chinese character face was walking slowly in front of the Temple of Heaven Square with his hands behind his back. It was still very cold, but this young man's clothes were so thin.

He didn't seem to be cold. What was even more strange was that when the hunting cold wind blew, it would automatically separate from his side... It was just that it was dark and there was no one nearby, so no one saw this strange scene.

"During the Yongle period..." The young man breathed out slowly and murmured in the night wind: "How many things have I missed..."

From here he looked at the night sky of the entire capital.

It didn't take much to get here from the coastal area of ​​southern Fujian, but the moment he stepped into this huge historical capital, a feeling of restraint followed.

He could feel that there was something terrifying buried underground in the capital. "Who is this master who can actually set up such a large formation... Could he be the successor of the Commoner Way?"

He has not forgotten why he walked into the capital alone this time... He needs to find the Zhao family, the descendant who claims to be the most orthodox bloodline of the Zhao family.

But it doesn't seem to be easy... It stems from the ubiquitous pressure in this capital - ordinary people feel good about it, but when it comes to his situation, it is easy to detect it.

In particular, he still used the most extreme method to force people to stay in the world of the world, which may be better than the evil spirits, but compared with the ghosts, they are not much worse.

The closer he got to the center, the righteous energy of heaven and earth that kept pouring out, and even the country's powerful humane atmosphere, made him somewhat breathless.

But after all, he was once the emperor. Even though the Zhao family's dragon vein has been broken, there are still some residues... There is an outstanding descendant who is blessed with great luck. There are faint signs of reuniting the Zhao family's dragon vein. He is The former emperor of the dynasty actually got some benefits, and he was not regarded as a ghost by the large formation underground in the capital.

But he also had to be careful.

"That's all." He shook his head, "Let's wait for Gong Fanxing to come."

Thinking about it, he felt a little unmotivated... On the one hand, the strong destiny of this new country made him feel quite powerless. On the other hand, after going north this way, after seeing the progress of modern times, he also felt as if he was walking into the world. Fantasy feeling.

He doesn't even know if he will be right or wrong in this world when he wakes up after a thousand years.

"It would be a shame not to drink on such a beautiful night..."

But just as he turned to leave, a long voice came from behind... He frowned and turned around, only to see a figure stepping on the moon from the altar of heaven.

Wearing a white Tang suit training uniform, with gray and black hair, he was holding a bottle of wine in his hand.

Finally... the man in white Tang suit training clothes landed in front of him as lightly as a feather, and said with a faint smile: "When did such a terrifying martial arts master come to this capital? I didn't know. I have been too lazy recently. A little more."

He frowned... This man in Tang suit training uniform gave him an extremely dangerous feeling - this man was even much more powerful than his previous subordinate, Gongsun Wuwo, who had died in the hands of Song Haoran.

He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, "I... I'm also very curious, there is such a martial arts cultivator in this world. What do you call me?"

The man in the training uniform smiled slightly, took a sip from the wine bottle, and said with a smile: "People who know me just call me an old man."

He couldn't help but smile, and then said seriously: "When a common man is angry, blood flows like a river... What an old common man!"

Old man... Fire Cloud Evil God looked at this young man up and down - basically, people who practice martial arts can easily see through their age, but this person, Fire Cloud Evil God really can't see through... He can't see through his age, but He felt that he was evil and terrifying. His blood was like that of a blood demon, with evil energy rising to the sky, but he was also protected by a strange dragon energy.

"The moonlight is just right tonight, my friend, let's try the sword with me!"
