Chapter 065 Array Calculation
"No wonder you refused to tell the truth in front of Pei Xueqing." Chen Duo finally understood. This matter was too cruel for a girl. If she told the truth, Pei Xueqing might not be able to bear it.
"Then is there any way to crack it?" Chen Duo asked again.
Xu Lai shook his head and said, "It's very troublesome. The formation of this ghost fetus is not a matter of one day or one night. From the beginning of planting to now, after so many years, this ghost fetus has almost merged with Pei Xueqing. If the ghost fetus is really removed, Pei Xueqing may not survive."
"So there's no hope?" Chen Duo felt a tightness in his chest. "Who is this bastard who did this?"
She was depressed for a while, and suddenly thought of another question: "Oh, right, you just said Pei Xueqing was a yin fetus, so is there a yang fetus?"
Xu Lai said: "We don't know yet. We have just sent someone to investigate."
Chen Duo recalled that he had just made a phone call in the kitchen: "Are you from Section 9?"
Xu said yes.
"Are you suspecting Pei Xueyi? Is he pregnant?" Chen Duo heard him mention Pei Xueyi's name on the phone.
"I'm not sure yet. Let them check it first, but it's probably close to zero," Xu said.
Chen Duo was silent. If it was true as he said, the life stories of the Pei brothers and sisters were really too tragic.
"Who on earth would want to harm them like this? Do you think it could be that pervert? Didn't you say that Pei Xueyi was related to that guy?" Chen Duo suddenly thought of a possibility.
"It's not impossible." Xu said.
"Then who is this pervert ? Hey, tell me, besides these two, who else is there in the Pei family?" Miss Chen analyzed.
"Apart from Pei Xueqing's siblings and their father, there is no one else." He had already learned about the general situation of the Pei family through Gao Xiang and the others.
"Where is Pei Xueqing's mother?" Chen Duo asked.
"He passed away a few years ago. It was said that he died of illness." Xu said.
Chen Duo stared at the soup bowl, thinking hard, and slapped the table and said, "Do you think it was Pei Ji who did it?"
"It's not impossible." Xu Lai nodded.
But after a while, Chen Duo herself rejected this idea: "This is unlikely. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Pei Ji can't possibly turn his two children into ghost fetuses, right? Don't you think so?"
"Everything is possible. Let's eat quickly, the food is getting cold." Xu said.
"Oh." Chen Duo took a few bites of rice, but his mind was still spinning, "Who else could it be besides Pei Ji... Or that Wu Qingyang? This guy is a mage, right? I think it's him! Old pervert!"
"Yes, yes, it must be him, it must be him. Let's eat quickly." Xu Lai was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
After they finished their meal, Xu Lai went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes, and Chen Duo curled up on the sofa to watch TV.
After watching half of the episode, I saw Xu Lai sitting at the dining table, writing something at his desk.
"What are you busy with?" Chen Duo asked.
"Draw something." Xu said.
"You can also draw?" Chen Duo was surprised and jumped off the sofa and came over to take a look.
I saw a stack of A4 white papers on the table, some of which had something drawn on them in pencil. The dense lines crisscrossed the paper, and the structure was very complex.
"What is this?" Chen Duo picked up one of the pictures, put it in front of her eyes, and looked at it over and over again, but she couldn't make any sense of it.
"It's a draft of the calculation. It's normal that you can't understand it." Xu said, but he didn't stop writing.
"Calculate? Calculate what?" Chen Duo was curious and looked carefully at the manuscript paper in his hand. However, there were neither numbers nor formulas on it. There were only long and short lines and some incomprehensible symbols. However, the shape formed by these lines did look a little special.
After all, she was an excellent student at Jiangning University, but she couldn't figure out what was written on the manuscript paper.
"The painting shows the structure of a formation, but it is scattered, so it is rather difficult for you to understand." Xu said.
Chen Duo understood a little after hearing this: "So you are calculating and deducing the formation again?"
"Smart." Xu Lai praised.
Chen Duo didn't buy his tricks, so she dragged a chair over and sat down, looking at the manuscripts and asked, "What formation are you calculating this time?"
The last time when I was deducing the layout of the art of bedroom, I just saw him walking around with a compass. This time he even drew it on paper. Does it mean that this time is more complicated than the last time?
Then he said, "Let's count it as the one from last time."
Chen Duo was puzzled: "Haven't you figured that out?" He had even set up the corresponding formation to restrain it.
Xu said: "We thought it was simple before."
"Really? How complicated could it be?" Chen Duo asked. In her opinion, the previous layout of the art of sex was already abnormal enough. It not only involved the thirteen diagrams of the art of sex, but also combined the geographical pattern of the area from Tianxiang Garden to Zijin Garden.
"We didn't know there was a pair of yin and yang ghost fetuses before." Xu said.
"You are talking about the Pei brothers and sisters. What do they have to do with the formation?" Chen Duo still didn't understand.
"Do you know the Yin-Yang fish?" Xu Lai asked.
"I know, it's the one in the Tai Chi diagram, right?" Chen Duo still understood this.
"The principle here is similar. The significance of the Yin-Yang Ghost Fetus in the formation is similar to the Yin-Yang fish, forming two formation eyes, one yin and one yang." Xu said.
"Can a human be the eye of a formation?" Chen Duo was very surprised. In her mind, aren't all the strange formations made of stones, nails, and the like?
"Of course, not only living people can be used as the center of the formation, but dead people can also be used."
"Is this true?" Chen Duo couldn't believe it.
"Actually, there's nothing strange about it. The human body has its own small world of the five elements. Of course, it is an excellent choice to serve as the eye of the formation." Xu said.
Chen Duo found it difficult to digest for a moment, so she ran to the kitchen, poured herself a glass of water and drank a few sips.
"Have you seen this kind of formation before? The kind that uses people as the center of the formation?" Chen Duo asked.
"Yes, I have seen it. Quite a lot of them. Not only dead people, but also living people. However, living people are not common. There are quite a lot of people who use corpses as the center of the formation." Xu said.
Chen Duo's cheeks turned pale when she heard this. She really couldn't imagine how such a terrible thing could happen in the world.
"So are you planning to figure out this formation now? Can you do it?" Although Chen Duo didn't quite understand it, he knew that this was actually a very complicated project.
"Let's give it a try." Xu said.
"Then keep up the good work." Chen Duo knew that she could not help much, so she went back to the sofa to watch TV and quietly turned off the volume.
After a while, I heard Xu Lai say, "Landlord, why is there no sound on the TV? What's going on?"
"Are you painting or watching TV?" Chen Duo was angry. She was afraid of disturbing him, so she turned down the volume with good intentions, but this guy actually started to complain.
"I was listening while I was painting. I'm not used to such silence all of a sudden." Xu said.
"Okay, okay!" Chen Duo lost her temper. She took the remote control and pressed a few buttons, turning the volume up to the maximum.
"Oh my god, what are you doing?" Xu Lai looked up at her in surprise.
"I'm afraid you can't hear me!" Chen Duo replied.
"Okay then." Xu Lai bent over his desk and continued to draw the structure.
In the end, Chen Duo couldn't stand it anymore, so she turned the volume back to its original level, watched a few episodes of TV on the sofa, and then fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up the next morning, I heard a rustling sound in my daze. I opened my eyes and saw that guy was still sitting at the dining table, drawing at his desk.
She sat up from the sofa and found that the TV was turned off and a thin blanket was covering her.
"That's quite considerate." Chen Duo muttered and climbed down from the sofa.
"You didn't stay up all night again last night, you're really risking your life!" He went to look at Xu Lai and saw a lot more drawn manuscripts on the table.
"Are you awake? I slept for a while and just got up." Xu said.
"That's about right." Chen Duo sat down, took the draft paper he had drawn and counted it. There were more than thirty sheets in total.
"How long will it take to figure it out?" Chen Duoguang felt dizzy after looking at the structural diagram. He didn't know how this guy drew it.
"I don't know yet, but there are some clues. I'll go and take a look later." Xu said.
Chen Duo glanced at him and saw that he was concentrating and writing meticulously. She thought that this guy usually looked so casual, it was rare for him to be so serious.
"Then you go ahead and do your work. I'm going to go back." Chen Duo tidied up the manuscript paper and put it aside, then got up and went out.
Xu Lai agreed and continued to compose the picture.
