Yue Xiuzhi was not angry either. At this time, he could also vaguely guess that things might be completely different from what he imagined before.

His heart tightened, feeling that the answer might be too much for him to bear.

"Why don't you tell me?" Yue Xiuzhi said, "Where is the stupidity?"

"Didn't I tell you before that the small world is stealing the energy of our world?" Qin Xun looked at him coldly, with "Think about it yourself, idiot" written on his face.

Yue Xiuzhi also thought of this level before, if he was scolded by Qin Xun for being stupid when he said that he was doing the task in order to maintain the problem of the derivative world and the original world, then there must be something wrong with the task. Combined with what Qin Xun said before, it is not impossible to do missions and cause the energy of the original world to be stolen by the derived world...

He almost subconsciously thought of this possibility just now, and it instantly made him sweat coldly. He was not willing to accept this kind of answer, and it could even be said that he could not accept this kind of answer.

And according to the conditions just learned, there may be no less than dozens of kinds. For example, the energy of the original world is not stolen, but the trajectory of the derived world is out of the plot, causing damage to the original world. That's why Qin Xun gave Qin Xun the illusion that "the energy of the original world has been stolen".

As for Qin Xun calling him stupid... There are many ways that others think you are stupid, who knows which one.

But now listening to Qin Xun deliberately emphasizing this point at this moment, no matter how stupid he is, he should know what Qin Xun means.

Yue Xiu's ten fingers trembled slightly, and his throat even felt a bit fishy and sweet.

"You mean...?" he said hoarsely, making the last effort.

"I used to travel through time-space cracks and went to other small worlds in order to find the reason for the decline of the Dao of Heaven." Qin Xun said, "I found that the energy flowing from the real world to the small world is divided into two groups, one for the Dao of Heaven in the small world." , another wave gave to...a person."

"I found an unusual fluctuation in that person, and finally found out the source of that fluctuation, which is the 'system' you mentioned."

"After that, I went to some other small worlds one after another. I captured these so-called systems. Later, the way of heaven declined again, and I couldn't maintain my frequent tearing of time and space, so I sealed my cultivation base and no longer shot."

"But it is enough to have the previous ones. I extracted the information of these systems and gave them to the government, and developed a lot of technology. At the same time, with these technologies, I gave them the systems and let them continue to study. "

The system listening to it was simply creepy, and the code was about to explode in fright.

What's the difference between this and humans hearing that their companions have been dissected!

Fortunately, Yue Xiuzhi left it behind just now, otherwise its life would be in jeopardy!

The more he cultivated, the more dignified his expression became.

According to Qin Xun, the system is a tool for stealing energy.

Moreover, the Heavenly Dao of the Derivative World may also be an accomplice, or even a beneficiary of these benefits.

Wait, if those gods are the accomplices...

Yue Xiuzhi's heart sank more and more, but something in his mind was about to surface, causing him a splitting headache.

"I extracted the information of those systems, so I know everything." Qin Xun looked at the young man in front of him indifferently, and continued, "You are so stupid and hopeless."

"Those systems are all controlled by something called the 'Main System'. The systems are also a group of idiots, who have been fooled by the main system. This main system, which came from nowhere, is collaborating with the Heavenly Dao of those small worlds, and together they plan to seek the original source. energy of the world."

"The small world was derived from those novels and movies. These novels or movies are the only connection between them and our world. Therefore, they have to maintain the plot of the novel to maintain this connection. Through this connection, they can obtain from our world. energy."

"This is the truth."

After Qin Xun said the last word, he saw the slender young man in casual clothes, with soft brows, half-kneeling on the ground as if he had lost all his strength, and he heard the young man muttering: "So it's like this... It turned out to be like this..."

If this is the truth.

...then what am I?

For the sake of this so-called plot, I really thought that without the plot, the derivative world would collapse. I thought I was sacrificing the small for the big, and I thought I was doing it for the sake of the common people!

What am I!

A fool, a fool who was tricked into turning around to be an accomplice, and who is still complacent!

He only felt throbbing pains in his head, and his eyes were blurry, but he didn't care about these, his eyes turned red instantly, and hot tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, almost scalding his cheeks.

Seeing that Yue Xiu's situation was not right, Qin Xun hurriedly stepped forward to support him, regretting his indifference just now.

In any case, although Yue Xiuzhi was an unintentional accomplice in this matter, to some extent he was also a victim.

"Are you okay?" He asked Yue Xiuzhi.

But Yue Xiu's ears couldn't hear these words at all, it was just a buzzing sound.

"Don't think about it, it's not your fault!" Qin Xun said loudly in Yue Xiuzhi's ear.

Yue Xiuzhi finally had some reaction, and he raised his head with tears on his face, and said to the person in front of him with a distracted expression: "For this ridiculous lie...haha...too ridiculous..."

A little Pei Ming seemed to appear in his eyes.

He was locked in a dark room.

The skinny man with only a handful of bones left, his eyes wide open, watched him take out his heart and soul with an expression.

That should be the third year that I imprisoned him.

Little children have forgotten what pain is.

Pain, hunger and cold, complete darkness, life passing away day by day...

Also, his utter indifference and cruelty.

Yue Xiuzhi tightly grasped Qin Xun's sleeve, and suddenly collapsed.

"Apei...Apei..." He kept calling, but finally found that his voice was so choked that he couldn't say anything.

sorry…

He opened and closed his mouth, repeating over and over again.

Qin Xun looked at the person in his arms worriedly. The young man's whole body was wet with cold sweat, even his forehead and hair were wet. His hair was sticking to his cheeks, and his face was flushed.

He was stunned for a moment.

But he soon came back to his senses, frowned, and felt that he could no longer let Yue Xiuzhi lose control like this.

Just as he was thinking like this, Yue Xiuzhi felt more and more pain in his brain, as if his brain was about to split open, and it seemed that something was about to stab out from inside...

The pain was so unbearable that he couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed his head with both hands, and his eyes turned black from the pain.

Something seemed to flash in his mind.

He saw where he inserted his ten fingers into his heart, he saw himself severely wound Liu Feng, he saw himself stab Pei Ming with a sword against the water...

He heard himself saying "go back" to Pei Ming over and over again, and he heard himself saying "kill me" to him over and over again...

Then, these pictures seemed to have finally found the beads of the chain one by one, connected them together, and presented them in his mind completely and continuously.

That's how it turned out...

Seeing that Yue Xiuzhi's state was getting worse, Qin Xun quickly withdrew to the field, the pure black space disappeared in the blink of an eye, and they returned to the original study.

Qin Xun carefully placed Yue Xiuzhi on the armchair, and was a little worried that Yue Xiuzhi's emotions would lose control again, but saw Yue Xiuzhi gradually calm down.

Yue Xiuzhi felt that he was so calm and terrifying at the moment.

Why did he suddenly become like that?

Is it a demon? No matter how much he wants to come back, he has practiced for decades, and there was no problem at all before. How could he suddenly go crazy without any signs?

And this demon is not normal at all.

He forgot again and again, and suddenly went mad again and again. Every time, he seemed to be torturing Pei Ming...

Moreover, he could vaguely feel an external force that forcibly twisted his thoughts and covered his memory...

【system! You all know that right! 】Yue Xiuzhi yelled to the system in his head: 【Tell me quickly, what's wrong with Pei Ming! 】

He should have known earlier, if there was no danger, how could that guy Pei Ming send himself here suddenly!

How can he be so kind...

【Tell me, tell me what happened to him! 】

【Pei Ming is fine, he just stays in his own world. 】The system forcibly pretended nothing had happened,【He just found out his conscience and let you go back to his own world, isn't that a good thing! 】

[Conscience found out? 】 Yue Xiuzhi sneered.

[If what Qin Xun said is true, then your system actually knows nothing about the main system's plan. You have always been like me, thinking that you are protecting the world, and suddenly knowing that all this is just a big lie, I almost collapsed, but you didn't react at all. 】

[You told me that you have been reincarnated for tens of thousands of years, and you almost regard these as your life, how could you not react at all! 】

【If you rule out the possibility that you are colluding with the main system, then the truth is... you already knew it. 】

【How did you know? 】Yue Xiuzhi asked coldly.

[How did I know this, and what does it have to do with Pei Ming? ! ] The system asked back.

【It is impossible for you to know it very early, because when you first came to Xiao Ming's world, you still regarded tasks as treasures. ] Yue Xiuzhi said, 【System, have you forgotten how busy you were before? 】

【Ha, I also forgot... According to you in the past, how could you have the spare time to accompany me to wander around in modern times. 】

[After I finished the task, you left immediately. Later, I came back again to maintain the general plot direction of Xiaoming's world, but now that I am in the real world, no matter what the task is, it has nothing to do with it, and you still stay by my side. 】

【You must have learned the truth not long ago, and even reached a consensus with Pei Ming, am I right? 】
