Chapter 173: See you later.
"You are such a clever little guy. You are worthy of being a man who perfectly matches my body."
"Speak human language."
Bai Ying pointed at Gu Sanqiu and said, "Release your black hole that can be opened. I'll see if I can pass through it and go to another world to play."
"Are you crazy ? I have no idea what's inside. At this stage, I can only guess that it is something that connects many worlds. There is even a guy inside who made notes for the items that appeared."
Gu Sanqiu frowned: "So, if you successfully pass through that thing, you may end up in a place controlled by others, and you can't control your life or death."
"What you said makes sense, but I still want to go."
Bai Ying said frankly: "You have obtained my memory, and you also know what my Gu family is protecting. Now that someone has inherited my job, I also want to go out and see other things in the outside world."
"Moreover, your soul looks exactly like mine. We even have the same name."
Bai Ying pointed at Gu Sanqiu's chest and said, "Just as I judged, there is a high possibility that there is some level of connection between you and me. It could be a projection, or an incarnation, or even someone's back-up plan or chess piece. I don't know."
"It is precisely because of the perfect match between the body and the soul that Hu Tao, Keqing and her sister could not tell any difference between Gu Sanqiu before and after."
"Since you have come to this world, I need to go to other worlds in exchange. Only in this way can I eliminate the 'mechanism' that may have been triggered."
"You can understand that I want to go to other worlds to witness their splendor, or you can understand that I want to protect the people, this city, and this land that I care about."
Gu Sanqiu raised his eyebrows: "According to your guess, if there are two Gu Sanqiu in the same world, it is very likely to trigger an early warning mechanism of some high-level existence?"
"It can't be considered an early warning mechanism. After all, we are tied together. I guess the breath they blow on us, no, I guess their bad breath alone can suffocate us to death, and our souls will decay ten thousand times."
"This should be considered a reminder mechanism, similar to the laboratory culture of bacteria in your memory, which monitors temperature and physical signs."
"After hearing what you said, I suddenly want to go through the black hole to see what's on the other side."
Bai Ying shook his head: "You better take it easy. Out of respect for you, I won't go into the details of how you died."
"If I go over there, there are only two possible outcomes. I will run into a high-ranking being with a kind heart, and He will tell me what that thing next to you is, and then give me a chance to live normally."
"Second, we can travel back to the time when you died. That means we can switch bodies. If you can fit into my body, then I should be able to fit into yours."
"Hey, is this a weird romance TV show? I don't watch that kind of stuff."
"These are just two guesses, and they are the best expectations."
Bai Ying said seriously: "The worst result is that I go there and start the lonely ghost version of the good-for-nothing hot-blooded plot, and every step is accompanied by endless dangers."
"If that time really comes, you will be my last resort."
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes: "In other words, I am equivalent to your final resurrection point and rear base, is that what you mean?"
"Ah, almost."
Bai Ying smiled and stretched out his right hand: "I know that you have been unwilling to accept my memory completely because you are afraid that it will destroy the last remaining memory you have."
"I will help you solve this problem so that you can live like a complete person again, and you will take care of everything I care about, or everything we care about."
"Come on, it's still unclear whether we are the same person. We are both independent souls, not the extreme of one yin and one yang."
"That's the whole way back to the beginning."
Bai Ying didn't care at all: "What if the Yin and Yang sequences are mixed and then separated, and we each take half?"
"You are dividing the world here , each taking half, and you are just being argumentative."
"Hey, whatever happens, that's what I feel anyway. Believe it or not, this is what an independent soul should do."
Bai Ying smiled and stretched out his right hand to Gu Sanqiu: "How about this deal?"
"It doesn't affect me, so I did it."
Gu Sanqiu sprinkled the smoke from the talisman paper onto his right hand, then calmly shook hands with Bai Ying.
"You also know the risks of going through it, so I won't say much. This is your own decision, and I respect you."
"You don't respect me at all. That's because it has no real impact on you. That's what you said yourself."
“No, it still has an impact.”
Gu Sanqiu looked at Bai Ying and said, "If the so-called early warning mechanism you mentioned is correct, I also have some things that need to be taken care of. Of course, that is only limited to the condition that you can successfully merge with my body."
"This deal is mutual, or rather, I hope your guess is correct and on the good side."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "These days, everyone cares about something. No matter who you are, it's just that everyone has their own life, or everyone has their own things to do. It's that simple."
"Well, judging from your memories, your world is indeed a bit troubled."
Bai Ying finished the last glass of wine: "But, you should be able to have a good rest in this place?"
"Rest for nothing."
Gu Sanqiu had a blank expression on his face: "I just ran into Diekarapian not long ago. His words about 'thousand-year-old stone' made me a little nervous. I don't know what he is up to."
"After I send you away, I have to pack up my things and go out with Brother Xiao to exorcise demons. Are you sure this is really a relaxing break?"
"Isn't it?"
Bai Ying spread his hands and said, "Traveling is moving from a city you are familiar with to a city that is familiar to some people. Leisure and relaxation are, to some extent, a lifestyle that some people are tired of."
"This is the conclusion I came to after reading your memory. I think it makes some sense."
"Well, you can talk."
Gu Sanqiu opened the black hole, then took out the golden fishing rod and gently wrapped the fishing line around Bai Ying's right arm.
"To be on the safe side, I'll use this thing to hold you. If anything goes wrong, there might be a small chance that I can get you out."
"Are you going now, or do you want to see the things you are familiar with?"
"Haha, no need for that. Isn't there another me here?"
Bai Ying sprinkled the talisman paper dust on Gu Sanqiu, then patted his shoulder vigorously.
"I believe that you are me, and I can be 100% you."
"This is a very interesting proposition. Of course, you can also understand it as a mutual blessing."
A stream of clear water flowed from Bai Ying's body into Gu Sanqiu's mind, and the latter's mental power began to surge at an astonishing rate. The two originally distinct memories began to merge together, and under the envelopment of a large amount of mental power, not a single bit was lost.
"I know that you seem to have gained something similar to the ability to reshape your body from it. I can also understand humans' obsession with cleanliness in this regard. Of course, I am even more grateful that you chose to maintain this state until now."
"You think you can endure it, and you stubbornly want me to see the demise of the Sanxuan Society, but I still have to remind you that this mentality will put you in a disadvantageous position in social situations. Hahaha, I believe you are not that stupid."
Bai Ying stretched out his fist, and Gu Sanqiu also stretched out his fist.
"Goodbye, other me."
"Goodbye, Gu Sanqiu."
