Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Li Yao stretched out his right index finger and wore the brown light ring used to cut the wall of the tube. However, this time, the blue light beam emitted by the ring was transformed into a growing "ice cone” that slowly extended towards Professor Rhodes' eyeballs.

The blue beam “grows” very slowly, until Professor Rhodes clearly sees the jump of every flame of light.

Meanwhile, Li Yao went into Professor Rhode's brain and stabbed into a wonderful, lifelike mindset - the whole process of a person's eyes being pierced, dry, and falling off.

Apart from Professor Rhodes' sudden dilation of his pupils, which is the only action he can do now, he can't even make a slight tremor and a cold sweat.

Professor Rhodes was weak: “I don't know anything. You've got the wrong person. ”

“Don't you know? ”

Li Yao smiled slightly, fingers forward, the blue beam instantly penetrated Professor Rhode's left eye ball, turned into a spiral drill bit, in a bitter pain of conical heart, drilled hard into Professor Rhode's brain!

“Whoo!”

Professor Rhodes tried to scream, but there was a slight groan coming out of the deep throat, and he instinctively blinked his left eye, but found that although the pain was immense, his gaze was still clear, and the blue beam was still sitting a millimeter in front of his pupil, spinning slowly.

The horrible scene just now was just a hallucination. It was Li Yao's mental attack on him.

“I gave you a chance to cherish it. The next time you stab me in, it's definitely not a hallucination. ”

Li Yao stared seriously at Professor Rhode's eyes, his gaze was sharper than that of the blue beam, and slowly slipped onto Professor's delicate and naive hands, "One person only has two eyeballs, so you can still answer twice wrong. If after poking your eyes, I still don't get a satisfactory answer, I can only move your hands. I believe, as a senior refiner, an expert in the ultra-minimally engraved field, that your hands are more precious organs than your eyes, that you almost nourish these perfect hands with all the blood and spirit around you, and you don't really want to see them turn one finger into meat and mud, do you? ”

Professor Rhodes still maintains that bland old voice, but the fear and despair in the voice can even be heard by the deaf: "What do you really want to know? ”

“I want to know who you work for, who gave you what good, let you betray your students, refined these pharaohs enough to kill them? ”

"Tang Xiaoxing is your best student, and your relationship is very harmonious. You are known for your indifference, solitude and isolation on the Firefly. Few people have been able to enter your private refinery room in the past few decades - Tang Xiaoxing is one of them, and she has been your assistant for three years. ”

“While you have not taken a direct stand on whether or not to join the Xingyao Federation, you should be more inclined to the 'technical post', that is, Captain Tang Dingyuan's side. Never before have you heard how close you are to the Knesset. On the contrary, you have even publicly denounced some MPs‘ lack of academia ’at a meeting, making them very difficult to get off the stage. ”

“So I can't understand why you're doing this, who told you to refine those tracking and positioning treasures, what good did it give you, or what reason did it convince you? ”

Professor Rhodes' eyeballs trembled fast: "Yes, Cheng Xuanxin asked me to refine them! ”

Li Yao raised his eyebrows slightly: “Speaker Choi Lingfeng's thoughtful heart is now responsible for investigating and apprehending Captain Tang and other secret police chiefs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? ”

“Yes!”

Professor Rhodes gasped, "I don't know anything, I just helped Cheng Xuanxin refine a bunch of tracking and positioning treasures! ”

"'But you knew then,' said Li Yao faintly. 'This batch can only be used on Tang Xiaoxing, right? ”

Professor Rhodes closed his eyes painfully: "… Yes. ”

“You don't seem to be the kind of person who would listen to the congressional and secret warnings, Don Xiaoxing, not only a very close student of yours, but also her father, the captain of the Firefly, and you should know the seriousness of the consequences of this. ”

Li Yao said, “You know very well that Cheng Xuansu is going to capture Tang Xiaoxing's back. It must be Speaker Choi Lingfeng who is going to deal with Captain Tang Dingyuan. It's the struggle between 'number one' and 'number two' that you die and I live in - this is a big thing that will most likely completely rip the Firefly! For you personally, 'betraying students' is also a stain that will never be erased! However, Cheng Xuanxin asked you to refine the alphabet against the students, and you said yes? ”

“Me, I can't! ”

Professor Rhodes' eyes trembled with his lips, and the wrinkles on his face seemed instantly ten times deeper, like burnt dead trees, "Cheng Xuanxin said, Captain Tang they, they committed… treason, for the future of the Firefly, I must cooperate with them, serve the country, serve the fate of 130 million compatriots! ”

“Treason? ”

Li Yao frowned, “Is Captain Tang a traitor just because he supports joining the Xingyao Federation? ”

Professor Rhode's eyes became very strange: "What Federation, this matter has nothing to do with whether or not to join the Starlight Federation. Cheng Xuanxuan said that Captain Tang had become a feudalist and had fallen into a state of immortality. He was trying to communicate privately with the Black Wind Fleet in an attempt to send our coordinates to the Imperial Expeditionary Army and let the Imperial Expeditionary Army jump in instantly! ”

“What!”

Li Yao stunned. Thousands of thoughts blossomed like fireworks in his head. He set his mind straight. “Is Captain Tang the immortal? How does Cheng Xuanzhen know? ”

“Specific evidence, of course, I don't deserve to see. ”

Professor Rhodes said, "But Cheng Xuanxun said that the situation on the Firefly is now very critical. Captain Tang lost his firm belief in reviving the Starling Sea Republic a long time ago and slowly fell into a state of defeatism and surrender, on which anyone can rely in order to survive. ”

“And if you have to choose a target, of course, the stronger the better. How can the Federation of Stars and Glows compare to the Real Human Empire, though it has some power by the stars and seas? Captain Tang wants to solve the problem once and for all, surrendering to the Empire is of course the best option! ”

“So, a long time ago, Captain Tang's heart was transformed, from a cultivator to a cultivator. Not only that, but he also secretly developed a large group of cultivators on the Firefly, trying to take over this superstarship for the Real Human Empire when the time came! ”

“By the way, Cheng Xuansu also said that the ‘election observation mission' sent by Captain Tang to the Xingyao Federation was full of immortals, and that if their plot succeeded, the Imperial Expeditionary Army would most likely appear in front of us instantly! So, my cooperation, not only can save the Firefly, but it can also save our allies, the Starlight Federation! ”

“It is precisely because of the seriousness of the situation that I am willing to cooperate with her and help her refine a batch of ultra-miniature magic treasures. ”

Li Yao stared at Professor Rhodes' every frown on his face without turning a blind eye, trying to find signs of him lying, but he never found anything.

If Professor Rhodes is not a superior actor than Li Yao, then he is telling the truth.

But Li Yao still had a little confusion: “Without proof, Cheng Xuansheng said, what would you believe? Didn't you ever wonder if it was most likely the council that framed Captain Tang Dingyuan? After all, your council and bridge are not getting along well! ”

“Of course I don't believe what Cheng Xuan said! ”

Professor Rhodes said, "Everyone knows that she is the dog leg of Speaker Choi Lingfeng, and we, the technologists, are very blind to these mysterious secret police all day long. ”

“However, Cheng Xuansou did not come to me alone. She came with Vice President Ding, who wrote a packet of tickets for everything he said to her. ”

“Vice President Ding? ”

Li Yao thought about it, "First Lieutenant Ding Zhengyang, General Commander of the Firefly deck, close associates, assistants and first agent of Captain Tang, third person on board besides Speaker Choi and Captain Tang? ”

“Exactly! ”

Professor Rhode said, "Everyone knows that Vice President Ding is Captain Tang's most loyal comrade. He has been helping Captain Tang against Parliament for the past decades. He has been at the forefront of several conflicts between the bridge and Parliament! ”

“When we discovered Xingyao Federation, Vice President Ding was the first person to actively join Xingyao Federation, even earlier and more resolute than Captain Tang! ”

“Besides, Vice President Ding is also a technologist. He is the lowest sailor in the power compartment. Step by step, he climbs to the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Deck. He knows every corner of the Firefly. He is a true starship commanding expert. In the eyes of our technologists, his prestige is second only to Captain Tang's! ”

“He himself said to me that Captain Tang had become a festival and had fallen into the service of a fairy! ”

“He doesn't like the Congressional gang very much, but it doesn't matter if he joins the Starlight Federation now, it's important to eradicate the immortals inside the Firefly completely! ”

“I don't believe in Cheng Xuanxin, but I can't help not trusting Vice President Ding, which is why I helped them refine the tracking and positioning methods! ”

Li Yao took a deep breath and the sparkling light in his eyes was like a mysterious star: “Let me guess, Captain Tang Dingyuan has been arrested by the Special Investigation Team for secret interrogation, and it is not possible for those members of Parliament to fly the starship themselves, so it is this‘ First Vice Ding 'who is now in charge of Captain Tang's duties and powers, right? ”

“Yes.”

"The big copy was the first agent of the captain," said Professor Rhode. "According to the" Star Sea Navigation Regulations ", when the captain had an accident, it was on top of the captain, and now it is indeed Vice President Ding Zhengyang, acting as" acting captain ", who controlled the entire Firefly! ”
