Lin Ya smiled faintly at Huo Mian’s disrespect and contempt.
“Mian, if you think it’s ridiculous, then just listen to it as a story… I remember the year I was born. It was 1665 B.C., your grandmother told me that in March of that year, there was a large-scale earthquake near the capital city. At that time, technology wasn’t so advanced yet, and everyone was terrified and afraid. The sturdy city walls collapsed in several places. At the same time, a violent storm struck, and the walls collapsed. Everyone fled. Even Emperor Kangxi and Empress Dowager retreated to the suburbs and lived in tents that were temporarily set up… They were afraid that there would be aftershocks… In that era, people were always superstitious. After I learned a lot from my master at the Daoist temple, I learned that it was actually because the rulers of the Qing Dynasty had killed people like flies and committed too many sins… They slaughtered people who were Han Chinese inhumanely… That was why a disaster descended upon them. However, it was just the commoners who had suffered…”
“Lin Ya, if you were really born in 1665, then you are over 300 years old now and you are still alive… and you did not age either. Then, may I ask if you are a monster? Did you eat the flesh of Tang Seng, or did you eat the Longevity Pill that was buried with Qin Shi Huang?”
Huo Mian thought it was ridiculous, so she asked the question in a mocking tone.
Lin Ya smiled again…
However, she did not continue this topic.
She gently placed the photo in her hand into Huo Mian’s.
She wondered if it was a psychological effect.
Every time Huo Mian touched Lin Ya’s finger, she would feel a bone-piercing coldness. There was absolutely no warmth in her body.
Therefore, Huo Mian once suspected that Lin Ya was a clone.
She was not the original person…
After coming here, she had seen too many unexpected events. Even Huo Siqian, who had been blown to pieces, was revived by Lin Ya.
What could a monster like her not do?
Huo Mian held the photo and lowered her head, not looking at Lin Ya.
She hated seeing her face…
“Mian… I don’t think the baby will be inside for long… Mommy is looking forward to the arrival of my grandson.”
“Haha, are you hatching an idea on my child again?” Huo Mian sneered.
“How can you think of your mother like this? I really like this baby…”
Huo Mian didn’t want to argue with Lin Ya, so she went straight into her room and slammed the door.
Outside the door…
“Master… you told Mian everything…” Messiah probably didn’t expect it to happen so suddenly.
Her master had told her everything. Messiah had even forgotten how long she had lived in this world with her master.
“Everyone wants to live forever… After Mian comes around, she’ll beg me for it too… After all, no one wants to die or grow old… but we can keep changing our male partners, right?”
Lin Ya laughed sinisterly… then left.
In C City.
Qin Chu was waiting in Granny’s and Ling’s room for the spiritual worm.
He had thought that it would be something earth-shattering.
When Granny walked out with a black box the size of a matchbox, Qin Chu realized that he had been overthinking things.
It wasn’t as ridiculous as it seemed on TV, and it wasn’t as creepy as it was written in supernatural novels.
“Qin, sit cross-legged.”
“Yes, Granny.”
“In a while, I will place the spiritual worm in your body. No matter how painful or uncomfortable it is, don’t move… The Connected Hearts spiritual worm has very little guts… I’m afraid that if you move too much, you will scare it away… And once it enters your body and runs out, if it sees the light, it will turn into ashes… And I only have one with me after so many years, so… this opportunity cannot be lost.”
Unexpectedly, even though Granny was old, her thoughts were logical and her words were extremely clear.
Qin Chu nodded and sat down with his legs crossed.
