"Can the shadow be the master of the house?" Qingchen doubts.

So far, he has no clear concept of the shadow dispute. Before, because he couldn't expose it, he could only pretend to know everything.

Now, at last, many doubts can be solved.

Ask directly!

Li Shutong also knew that he was not from the inner world, so he explained to him like a teacher: "it is said that Qing family existed in the last era of human civilization. At that time, the shadow was just a role that Qing's group could discard at will. Qing's children who had no background were selected to take up the role, and the power was not as great as it is now. "

"Later, a gifted Qing's shadow turned away and lifted the table. From then on, he made new rules

"All homeowners must have been shadows and seen the dirtiest things in the world. And those who have been shadows will never turn their back on the family to support them. "

Qingchen doubts: "how many shadows are there?"

Li Shutong replied: "on average, one generation will be chosen in more than ten years, and one generation of family owners may have been accompanied by more than a dozen shadow."

He continued: "today's medical technology is very powerful. A family owner can live for hundreds of years, and some can even live for more than 150 years. Therefore, when the head of a family abdicates, he should choose the one he most recognizes from more than a dozen shadows. "

"What about the other shadows?" Qingchen asked.

"To hand over power," Li Shutong said, "but you can spend your old age in peace. When you become a shadow, you not only have the qualification to be a master, but also have the gold medal to avoid death. "

"I always think this system is a bit strange. Since the ancestor of Qing family was a shadow himself and knew the hardships of the shadow, why did he set up this system of raising poisonous insects?" Qingchen doubts.

"Oh, the rules for nine people to fight for the throne are not set by him, but by his son. It seems that his son has chosen a few shadows, which are all rubbish, and there are no available people around him. Therefore, let the underdog fight for himself, and the one who wins is naturally the strongest," Li Shutong explained.

"Didn't the ancestor of the Qing family stop his son?" Qingchen asked.

"At the beginning, the shadow fight just let everyone do the task, who is more capable who wins," Li Shutong said. "However, nearly a thousand years later, the shadow fight has gradually changed, and began to become the shadow who can survive."

Qingchen nodded, which is logical.

The patriarchal family law is the embodiment of idealism, but all ideals will gradually decay with time.

Nothing is unchangeable, because people are always changing.

"Later, the routine of the shadow fight continued," Li Shutong said with a smile. "Maybe the owner of Qing's family knows that if Qing's family is not fierce, how can they gain a foothold in the world here?"

"Yes," Qingchen nodded, "so now I have to be careful of my own safety, because the nine shadow candidates want to get rid of others."

"Well," Li Shutong nodded, "to tell you the truth, it's beyond my expectation this time. I didn't expect that someone wanted to get rid of others at the beginning, which was not so fast in the past. Unless someone feels the threat from you. "

"Because I'm close to you?" Qingchen analysis: "no, no, I haven't known you, the dead have followed me in."

"Don't think about it. After a long time, you will know," Li Shutong said.

"Can I quit the shadow fight? Is there any conflict between Qing's and joining knights Qingchen asked.

"No conflict," Li Shutong shook his head, "but it's better not to let people know that you join the knight. Don't you see that I'm all locked up here. I'll teach you in the middle of the night and in the daytime. And I don't suggest you quit the shadow fight, because you haven't seen how much power shadow has

"Well," Qingchen nodded. He was not a person without courage. Since Li Shutong said not to quit, he would play with other candidates.

At this time, No. 18 prison is particularly open. Qingchen feels unrestrained.

Li Shutong sat on the ground with his knees crossed. The cat nestled up to him and fell asleep. Qingchen also sat on the opposite side with his knees crossed.

"Is there anything else to ask?" Li Shutong asked.

"In my opinion, the standard weapons in the world are still guns. Are there any other more powerful weapons?" Qingchen asked.

"There are, but not many," Li Shutong said. "There are small EMP grenades specifically for mechanical limbs, and there are also special weapons loaded on mechanical limbs. However, the military of the consortium is still dominated by guns, and the bullets are basically copper."

Qingchen asked: "the technology of Liworld is very advanced. Why is the weapon similar to that of biaoworld?"

Li Shutong said with a smile: "because, to kill a person, one bullet is enough."

Qingchen understands that we continue to use it because it is the most cost-effective weapon, and it is enough.

Three words is the key.

It's just like someone on the Internet said that the mirror in the world is not as scientific and technological as expected, and it has no other additional functions except demisting.

This is because the function of the mirror is so simple. It's not that the more complex the technology is, the more complex the items used in daily life will be.

"Well, with the chores finished, let's get down to business," said Li Shutong.

"Is that the furthest of all the shortcuts in the world?" Qingchen asked.

"That's right," Li Shutong nodded. "Put out your right hand."

Qingchen spreads out his right hand and reaches in front of him, but sees that Li Shutong suddenly pinches his wrist.

Just for a moment, he felt his breathing stagnated for a while, as if a strong spiritual will was controlling his breathing rhythm, even the speed of blood flow.

The pulse pinched by Li Shutong was like a layer of shackles.

The next moment, Li Shutong's breathing rhythm changed. Qingchen watched the other side spit out a white breath, and then extended the flame lines from his cheek to his ear.

Qingchen was stunned!

What the other side shows is totally against the common sense of biology!

But before he could react, Qingchen felt that his breathing rhythm had been forced to change. His heartbeat and breathing were all different!

Qingchen only felt that when he breathed, it was like a fire rolled into his throat, and then spread all over his alveoli. The terrible temperature swept all over his body, and then he was in pain!

Not the real temperature, but the illusion caused by inexplicable pain.

Slowly, Qingchen's left and right cheeks began to appear flame lines, and the pain spread into the brain along the lines.

He wants to get rid of his wrist, which is clamped down by Li Shutong, but ye Wan on one side says calmly: "hold it."

Qingchen gradually quieted down, no struggle, no appeal.

It's like yesterday when he went through waterboarding.

Lin Xiaoxiao said: "remember what I said, experienced a painful life, can be higher."
