Chapter 663 Underhand
Chapter 663 Underhand
Lu Chihuan stared at the teleportation device in his hand in confusion and disbelief, and for a moment he was even unable to react.
and so--
Did his brother insist on sneaking into the insect nest alone in order to leave him a chance to survive?
Conveying device.
He had totally forgotten about this thing.
Because he still had the fluorite jade left to him by the world consciousness on his wrist and two chances to turn back time, he did not regard sneaking into the hive and installing the explosive device as something terrible.
In his own opinion.
He would not die no matter what, and he was confident that he could survive.
But Lu Minghe didn't know.
Lu Chihuan forgot to tell him this, so he thought that if Lu Chihuan didn't have the teleportation device, he would never be able to escape from the wormhole before the explosion.
And in order to prevent Lu Chihuan from dying.
He thought silently for a long time, trying to find a way out of the dilemma.
In the end, he sadly discovered that even though he had managed to make a career and achievements in the universe during the years of wandering outside, he was ultimately just an ordinary person.
His powers are limited.
Therefore, we want to save but are powerless, and we want to change but don’t know where to start.
to the end.
Lu Minghe didn't think for too long before he made up his mind to leave the chance of survival to Lu Chihuan. As for the task of sneaking into the insect nest, he would do it himself, even though he knew...
This road leads to death.
But there is no way.
An older brother's job is to protect his younger brother. He had made a vow in his heart since the day they reunited.
I will always protect Lu Chihuan.
Don't let him suffer any harm or injustice.
Once you understand the cause and effect of the matter.
Hearing Lu Minghe's words, which sounded like a last will, Lu Chihuan felt a slight sourness in his nose and his throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, so that he couldn't speak for a long time.
His eyes were watery.
He first shook his head heavily, then lowered his head and rubbed his eyes a few times to cover up his loss of composure, and his voice was choked with sobs.
"I, no... no need..."
Lu Minghe frowned after hearing this, but after a moment, he gently lowered his eyes and rubbed Lu Chihuan's head lightly. His voice sounded steady and low.
"Huanhuan."
"I know you may not be able to accept this decision for a while."
"It's only been a few days since we met again, and there are still many things we haven't said and done. If I can help it, I don't want to do this."
"But this is the best solution I came up with after careful consideration. Just think of it as my brother being too selfish..."
although.
He knew that the person who survived would be in pain, but he still wanted Huanhuan to survive, after all, Huanhuan was still so young.
He had neither seen nor experienced the wonderful and beautiful places in the universe with his own eyes. It would be a shame if he died in this cold and dark insect nest.
He is different.
After he found Huanhuan, he actually...had no regrets in his heart.
Lu Chihuan took a deep breath.
He tried hard to calm himself down and then gathered his composure. He reached out and grabbed Lu Minghe's sleeve, wanting to explain everything to him.
only.
When he heard Lu Minghe say that he was selfish, he couldn't control his temper. With wet tears in his eyes, he glared at him fiercely, "What selfish?"
"Brother, why do you always like to give yourself strange titles? I have never thought you were selfish."
Lu Minghe opened his mouth to speak.
But he was interrupted by Lu Chihuan the next moment, and his fair and handsome face revealed a rare bit of toughness.
"Listen to me first."
"Actually, I forgot to tell you before. In order to make me complete the task honestly, the world consciousness gave me a prop. This prop can save my life, so even if the insect nest explodes, I will not die. Don't worry, brother..."
He said most of what he wanted to say in one breath, then looked up at Lu Minghe's expression with a slightly apologetic look.
He didn't make it clear at the beginning.
That's why his brother fell into anxiety, it's his fault.
However, Lu Chihuan originally thought that Lu Minghe would be relieved after hearing what he said, but the other party's reaction was not what he expected.
Lu Minghe's eyes deepened a little, and he looked at Lu Chihuan with a complicated expression, his Adam's apple rolling a few times.
Then he sighed faintly, as if he didn't believe what I said.
"Huanhuan."
"I know you don't want me to die, so you made up these words to lie to me."
He gently pinched Lu Chihuan's cheek, and the corners of his lips curled up and revealed a light smile, "I received your kindness, and this is enough for me."
"no!"
Lu Chihuan’s pair of dark eyes widened. He never thought that... Lu Minghe actually didn’t believe what he said.
Think of this.
He hurriedly tried to take off the firefly jade on his wrist.
Then he wanted to prove to Lu Minghe that what he said was true, "What I said is true. The world consciousness usually stays in this piece of fluorite jade, but most of the time it is absorbing energy."
"It only comes out to talk to me occasionally. I'm going to wake it up now!"
Lu Minghe saw that Lu Chihuan was so persistent.
Therefore, he stopped talking and instead lowered his head and looked at Lu Chihuan silently.
Lu Chihuan shook the fluorite jade in his hand. He was so anxious that sweat was dripping from the tip of his nose, but his black eyes were still as bright as stars. "World consciousness, wake up quickly!"
Explain it to him quickly.
Otherwise, Lu Minghe would really disobey me and choose to enter the insect nest to die.
One minute.
Two minutes.
After a few minutes, the fluorite jade was still dim and the world consciousness did not wake up from the fluorite jade to respond to him.
Lu Chihuan: ...
Drop the chain at the critical moment!
although.
He had always known that the world consciousness was not very reliable, but that was only a superficial impression. It was not until this moment that he deeply realized that the other party was completely unreliable.
"cough."
He stretched out his finger and scratched his cheek lightly, then said to Lu Minghe sheepishly, "Well... maybe the energy of the world consciousness has not been fully absorbed."
“That’s why it didn’t come out.”
Lu Minghe lowered his head and looked at the stone, which looked almost ordinary in his eyes.
I thought that even though Huanhuan had grown up, she was still innocent, and the lies she told were as thin as a piece of thin paper.
It almost broke with one poke.
Think of this.
He reached out and hugged Lu Chihuan.
His chin rested on the other's thin shoulder, and the words he spoke were almost like a sigh, with a bit of tenderness and sincerity, "Huanhuan."
"forget it."
Stop lying.
Maybe when he first made this decision, he still felt a little melancholy and regretful, but after seeing Huanhuan's expression, he was able to calmly accept the result.
Exchange my life for Huanhuan's life.
It’s still worth it.
Lu Chihuan was held in Lu Minghe's arms in a daze. He listened to Lu Minghe's words of comfort and resignation. He bit his back teeth unconsciously, thinking that he was afraid he couldn't explain himself clearly.
The best opportunity was missed.
There is no strong evidence at hand.
Therefore, no matter how much I explain, Lu Minghe probably won't believe it.
Why didn't I ask the world consciousness for some props that might look impressive before? If I had really asked for the props, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation where I couldn't defend myself.
He closed his eyes.
As if he had made some kind of resolution, when he opened his eyes again, his dark almond-shaped eyes flashed with a firm and serious light.
"…it is good."
He lowered his head and answered obediently.
After raising his hands, he gave Lu Minghe a firm hug.
The voice sounded a little soft, as if he no longer insisted on having some props on him, nor did he try to persuade Lu Minghe, but accepted the arrangement made by the other party.
Lu Minghe breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew Huanhuan's temper, and there was nothing he could do if he became stubborn.
If it wasn't necessary, he really didn't want to use force or conspiracy against Huan Huan. Now that she was so obedient...
Honestly.
He's still a little uncomfortable with it.
Just as he was about to say something, he felt a sharp pain at the back of his neck, and something cold was pushed into his blood vessels at an extremely fast speed.
what is this? !!
Lu Minghe lowered his head and looked at Lu Chihuan in disbelief, only to see that Lu Chihuan let go of him and took two steps back. In his hand was a glass injection, the light golden liquid inside was already empty.
"elder brother."
He looked up.
There was a hint of guilt in those clean and beautiful eyes.
"sorry."
Lu Minghe didn't even know whether Lu Chihuan's apology meant that he had injected the drug into him without permission, or that he had ignored him and insisted on having his own way. He didn't have time to figure out the answer.
I felt dizzy.
My eyelids felt like they weighed a thousand pounds and couldn't stop falling down.
A wave of sleepiness came over me.
It made him feel dizzy.
After staggering a few times, he finally couldn't withstand the effects of the potion.
After half closing his eyes, he fell forward limply, but his body did not touch any hard surface. Instead, he was caught in a warm embrace.
The other person had a sweet and sour citrus scent on his body, and his voice sounded softly, "Brother, don't worry. I injected you with a strong sleeping pill, which will be completely metabolized from your body in a dozen hours."
"Close your eyes and have a good sleep. I'll be by your side when you wake up..."
It is the sound of joy.
Lu Minghe never expected that Huanhuan, who was always obedient, would be so bold as to secretly inject him with the medicine when he wasn't paying attention.
Miscalculated.
Hearing the other person's voice becoming increasingly blurred in his ears, Lu Minghe couldn't help but force himself to reach out and grab him.
No.
Don't go to the insect nest.
Don't go to the insect nest...
With such a desperate and anxious mood, he tried hard to break free from the influence of the potion, but it was in vain for him.
His fingertips moved slightly.
however.
Soon he fell into darkness again and could hardly hear anything happening outside.
Lu Chihuan pursed his lips.
He had hardly thought too much when he made up his mind to do this just now.
after all.
Opportunities can be said to be fleeting.
If he hesitated, Lu Minghe would most likely notice it, so his actions had to be quick, accurate and ruthless.
But now, after seeing Lu Minghe sleeping in his arms, he patted his little heart, which was beating a little fast, and felt his legs seemed a little weak.
Ruined.
In the past, he and Lu Minghe had only had minor fights, and this was the first time he had taken action.
Although the starting point is good.
But his brother will definitely come after him when he wakes up, and he doesn't know how he will be punished then... But anyway, he has already done it, and now he can only bite the bullet and move forward.
It's impossible to let Lu Minghe die.
This powerful sleeping drug would probably make an ordinary person sleep for more than ten hours, but Lu Minghe was in better physical condition.
and so.
The time may be shortened to five or six hours.
Anyway, the time is not too long, he must act quickly.
Lu Chihuan rolled up his sleeves, helped Lu Minghe up, and brought him back to the pirates who were still waiting for them.
The pirates were almost shocked when they saw their leader fainted in Lu Chihuan's arms, and they stood up hurriedly.
"leader!"
"What happened, Chief?!"
Lu Chihuan had no intention of hiding anything, and simply told him that Lu Minghe was going to give him the teleportation device and then sacrifice himself, "I didn't want him to die like this, so I used some tricks to make him sleep for a while."
"He will probably wake up again in a few hours."
"Leave the infiltration into the hive to me."
Everyone looked at each other.
When they looked at Lu Chihuan, they showed some hesitation unconsciously. After a while, they mustered up the courage to say, "It's not that we don't trust your ability... When you saved us before, your strength was obvious to all."
"But if you don't have a teleportation device, how are you going to escape from the wormhole? Although we don't want our leader to die, we are not the kind of people who would be ungrateful."
"You saved us earlier."
"We can't just watch you enter the hive and never come back."
Lu Chihuan still brought out his own tricks and said, "Before I left the base of the Ghost Star Pirates, my friends gave me one or two life-saving items, but they are deeply bound to me, so only I can use them."
"When I explained this to your leader just now, he was so concerned that he refused to listen to me no matter what."
“I even thought it was a lie.”
"I think that since everyone here has been selected by Lu Minghe to join the elite team, they should be able to think calmly and independently. You should believe what I say, right..."
He was just fooling around.
This made the pirates of the Ghost Pirates believe what he said and they didn't object.
During these few days.
Lu Chihuan had actually been observing the pirates of the Ghost Pirates. Now he had specially picked a relatively reliable candidate and entrusted Lu Minghe and the teleportation device to him.
"I'll leave Lu Minghe to you."
"After I send you the message, you can just press the transmission device on my brother and take him out of this wormhole."
The star pirate had a determined look in his eyes.
He replied confidently, "Please rest assured, I promise to complete the task."
After completing the important task, Lu Chihuan felt relieved. He walked slowly to Jinwu and said with a slight smile:
"Golden Crow."
"Would you trust me for once?"
