Chapter 41
"'Come to me'?" I repeated meaninglessly.

These three words are like a spell, just saying it will sink me.

Li Yuan hummed calmly.

I narrowed my eyes and looked at him: "You are not too surprised."

Li Yuan shrugged: "I came here to look for it. It doesn't matter whether it talks or not. What's more, I will go to the slaughterhouse sooner or later. It's the same everywhere."

I was stunned by his mentality.

Li Yuan smiled at me reassuringly, and then told me: "The Yin family's words are about people, that is, the Yin family who was transformed before my aunt said well. The disease of the Yin family is like preparing for something. Yes. The so-called transformation is just to manipulate us according to their ideas."

The same thing was said by Grandpa Li and Li Yuan himself, and the impact was incomparable.

Countless questions stuck in my throat, but I opened my mouth and asked, "Why are your hands so cold?"

Li Yuan raised his eloquent eyebrows.

I could only say embarrassingly: "That's what, I heard from Aunt Li Zheng that the transformation process is like magma flowing in a blood vessel."

Li Yuan smiled: "My aunt's statement is quite vivid."

I couldn't help but regret asking the damn question so much.

Li Yuan didn't mind, he found a more comfortable position in the chair comfortably.It's obviously boneless, but it doesn't look broken at all: "Actually, you know that's just a metaphor, right? It's not so much that the magma is flowing, it's better to say that the blood is boiling. After boiling, it transforms into another substance, that is, It’s like being tempered into steel.”

He spoke lightly, as if nothing happened at all.If I hadn't seen him enduring the pain yesterday, I'm afraid I would have believed it.

"I just didn't expect that strange celestial phenomenon to be a full moon, so I was a little unprepared." Li Yuan smiled a little embarrassedly, "Did you scare you yesterday?"

I don't really like the way he insists on taking responsibility for it even though he is unlucky.

"You think I'm frightened?" I made a disdainful look. "Has this ever happened before?"

Li Yuan shook his head: "It's the first time I felt transformation before the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. That full moon was really evil. But if the 'transformation' yesterday was transformation, I was merciful."

As he said that, he bowed his hands to the sky, as if thanking God for his kindness.

Li Yuan is not someone who needs comfort, so I will save those words.But I still have to ask some questions.

"If Mr. Bai and the others didn't arrive in time yesterday, would you really go to sacrifice to that ghost altar?"

"Why not? The blood will be given sooner or later. Instead of looking for a chance to test it later, it's better to let them see it clearly."

I was shocked by Li Yuan's attitude of accepting fate in a calm manner, and said something stupid again: "Don't you think it's scary that your blood can light up the ancient Egyptian altar?"

"What's the matter. The transformation will always have some effect. Using my blood to power an altar is not the worst thing I have imagined."

"Then what have you been thinking about?" I asked casually.

"You really want to know?"

When I saw his eyebrows raised maliciously, I knew he was holding back his bad intentions. "You like to talk or not."

Li Yuan is happy. "Actually, no matter what this transformation has done to my blood, it's not too outrageous. Although the little animals are not too happy to get close to me, I feel that I am still separated from the lizard people."

Li Yuan smiled at my cold eyes, and then analyzed: "Hassan said that the altar can recognize the so-called [ancient blood]. Since my own blood was also accepted by the altar, it proves that this [ancient blood] must not be The blood of ancient Egypt. As you said yesterday, they can’t want us to bleed to recognize our relatives. So what can be recognized by the altar is our similarity. And this similarity, apart from the magnetic field Do what he thinks. After all, there is no accident in Egypt. There is a piece of 'ore', and it is very likely that the Hassan brothers and sisters have also been transformed."

"But are you really not afraid? No matter what their purpose is, it will not be as simple as holding a meeting for you to recognize your relatives. If you are dragged into the desert by them, you will be in trouble every day. "

"I've been hiding in XZ all my life, where can I be safe?" Li Yuan said plainly and straightforwardly, as if he was talking about irrelevant people. "Since they tried their best to let us see the desert, there is no reason not to take a look."

indeed.And 279 came here under the banner of the Eastern Sahara Desert Expedition Group.How did they know their destination before seeing the live-action theater of the Temple of Omniscience?
A lot of things happened yesterday, but it was enough to torment me.The feeling of fullness and sleepiness came up again. I tossed a lot of coffee and chewed a lot of tea leaves to barely open my eyes.Li Yuan acted like a normal person.

I gave him a jealous look.

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows: "This is probably another effect of transformation."

I became interested: "Oh? Is there any other manifestation of this transformation?"

Ah Tian raised a point of view: No matter what the principle of the transformation of the magnetic field is, there must be a purpose.

After all, trying to transform a living person can't be just to torture him once a month, right?That could have made him a woman.

Thinking of this, I glanced at Li Yuan.

He gave a "tsk". "What do you mean by that look in your eyes? This magnetic field can't turn me into a hulk. My metabolism will be relatively slow if I'm exhausted."

I have a mental head, but my brain still doesn't turn: "Then do you have any physical needs?"

Li Yuan frowned again when I asked him.

I added: "Just eat, drink, and sleep, are you the same as ordinary people?"

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes helplessly: "What you're talking about is called bigu, I guess I have to go to cultivate immortality to do it. This transformation is not so amazing, it's just that I'm going to make it harder if I die."

I oh.

"But the magnetic field has its rules. The magnetic field of those stones does not belong to this world, and it is not the same as the laws of nature."

"What do you mean?"

It's not this world, could it be something from the underworld?

I looked at Li Yuan's extraordinarily young face, and thought of Li Zheng's ageless face and those eyes that had seen too much.There is a vague guess in my heart.

"Being transformed is a bit like maintaining the best condition. So I don't get tired easily, I don't age much, and I don't even leave marks." After speaking, Li Yuan asked me: "I still remember when you rode my bike and took me Is it?"

I nodded.

At that time, I had just learned to ride a bicycle, so I insisted on letting Li Yuan sit on the back seat and take him out.As a result, I knocked out a tooth and gave him a cut in the forehead.After the fall, Li Yuan's face was covered with blood, and he comforted me that I was fine while weeping.I don't know if it was pain or fright, but I cried with a bloody grin.

Now that Li Yuan mentions this matter again, I am somewhat embarrassed.

Li Yuan didn't take advantage of it.He just pushed back the hair on his forehead, and leaned over with his head slightly lowered.

I looked at his forehead without forehead lines.The skin there is smooth, not to mention scars, not even a pimple mark can be seen.

At that time, Li Yuan was such a little doll carved with jade and jade, I was almost disfigured by me, and my mother almost beat me to death.Now that I think about it, I'm afraid the beating was in vain.

Li Yuan leaned back again, and said under my complicated gaze: "It's not just here. Later, I was injured several times, without exception, without leaving any traces. When I grew up, I realized that not only Scars, even the years refuse to leave me a memorial."

"So your body won't hurt?" I asked.

"Whether you get injured or not is one thing. But no matter what kind of injury you suffer, you will recover in the end." Li Yuan shrugged, "I am not the owner of this body."

I subconsciously licked the place where the tooth was missing.

The tooth that was knocked out in the bicycle accident grew back when the teeth were replaced later.There will be no scars on Li Yuan's body. Nothing left a trace of what happened 18 years ago.

In fact, it could have gone on like this forever, and it doesn't matter whether we have seen it or not.But now, we have reached the same destination in Egypt by different routes.

As for Li Yuan's understatement of 'several injuries'.I know that it will definitely not be as light as he said, but I can't bear to spy.

Li Yuan's sufferings and the years he has gone through in the past may not have left a trace on his body, but that has changed him irresistibly.

"No wonder your skin is so good, it's a natural beauty." I said sourly.

Li Yuan laughed. "It's probably considered rent. It can't be for nothing to help others raise this body, isn't it?"

I couldn't laugh, so I could only change the subject abruptly: "But I don't think the Hassan brothers and sisters seem to be affected by life. I don't know where they came into contact with the magnetic field."

Li Yuan took it for granted.

"So." As soon as I started, Li Yuan continued: "So I think we should meet Hassan. As an 'ancient Egyptian priest', he must know something."

What I want to say is that I don't know what this magnetic field wants Li Yuan and the others to do. It may be dangerous to follow the so-called "oracle" rashly.Although the topic has been taken away, I also thought it would be a good idea to ask those Egyptians to clarify.

I can't get in touch with Hassan, but I still have Ali's contact information.

Originally, I didn't want to deal with him anymore, and I didn't reply to the apology and explanation message he sent me.

Li Yuan saw my reluctance, and said empathetically, "If you don't want to talk to them, that's fine. They weren't the only ones who went to the desert."

Here I have sent the information. "It's okay. Since I know there are clues here, why not use it."

Ali returned quickly, saying that he and Hassan happened to be in the city too, and they made an appointment with us to meet in an hour.

It just so happened that Lao Zhang's WeChat message was also sent.He and Ah Tian couldn't sleep when they went back, stayed up until dawn to find me for dinner, and asked me where I had gone.

I didn't hide it from them, so I just said that I was having dinner with Li Yuan and I was going to meet Ali and the others later.

Lao Zhang exploded immediately, and a bunch of exclamation points asked him for his crime.Ah Tian only sent two words: "Address." I obediently sent it to her.Ah Tian said that she and Lao Zhang would go over immediately, and told me to meet up quickly, because she still had something to say to us.

I stared helplessly at my phone.Originally, I didn't want to cause trouble for them, but if I didn't let them come, I might have to worry again.And if they really want to come, they can just go to Ali directly.

"Let's go now, my friends are coming too."

Li Yuan had no objections, and we walked all the way to the agreed place.

The carriage passed by with the yelling, and a small stone collapsed in front of us.I kicked subconsciously.Li Yuan smiled, and I glanced at him.

Li Yuan sighed: "You two friends are very interesting."

I raised my eyebrows: "No, it's better than not even knowing the real name."

I looked at the person in front of me, and finally asked a question that I had cared about for a long time.

"Are you Li Yuan or Yin Yuechen?"

He smiled.

The sun shines generously.
