Chapter 248: Pawn

~7 min read 1,333 words

Thinking and thinking without coming up with any reason, Bai Zhi simply stopped thinking and lay on the bed, burying her whole face in the pillow.

Encountering difficulties, sleep.

Perhaps because her memory always had gaps every few days, Bai Zhi's mentality was a bit Buddhist. She didn't think about problems she couldn't understand, and gave up on things she couldn't remember. Over time, she became a bit silly, looking like she was easy to bully.

Looking at Bai Zhi's indifferent attitude, Ning Zhe felt a bit helpless, but on second thought, it was also true. In her growing environment, she had no choice but to be Buddhist.

"Then why don't you eat?" Ning Zhe asked again: "Your mom is very worried about you."

Bai Zhi raised her head from the pillow and supported her upper body with her elbows to lift slightly, so that the two flattened breasts could return to their original shape and breathe freely. It was uncomfortable to lie on the bed all day, especially for those with large breasts, which was even more uncomfortable.

"Because it's very uncomfortable to lie on the bed after eating."

Bai Zhi said, pointing to her lower back with her finger. The movement pulled the wound, making her frown in pain: "My spine cracked from behind. The doctor said to try to avoid bending over during the recovery period after surgery, so I've been sleeping on the bed for the past few days, and my chest is so stuffy... and I don't dare to eat too much. If my stomach is bloated, it will be very uncomfortable, and I'll want to vomit from being pressed by the bed board. It's also inconvenient to go to the bathroom like this."

So Bai Zhi wasn't fasting because of a negative mentality, but just didn't want to eat because of physical reasons. Feng Yushu loved her daughter so much that she subconsciously added fuel to the fire in her description to Ning Zhe.

"So that's it." Ning Zhe threw a piece of chocolate into his mouth. It seemed that no useful information could be obtained from Bai Zhi here.

Such a result was also within Ning Zhe's expectations. With Fen Wu's style, it was unlikely that he would leave such an obvious flaw for himself.

Throwing the chocolate wrapper into the trash can, Ning Zhe stood up and left the hospital bed: "Then take good care of your illness, I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute." Bai Zhi called him.

"What's wrong?"

"Hm... can you help me peel a chocolate?" Bai Zhi said, reaching out to the side of the bed: "Look, I can't reach it."

"Sure." Ning Zhe helped her peel a chocolate and put it into the girl's soft and delicate palm.

"Thank you." Bai Zhi took the chocolate and put it into her mouth, squinting her eyes: "So sweet... I like to eat some sweets when I'm sad. Tasting the sweet taste, my mood will get better."

Okay, it seemed that physical disability was not without a blow to Bai Zhi, but she didn't show it.

"Have you had any nightmares recently?" Ning Zhe asked suddenly.

Bai Zhi nodded: "There haven't been any for the time being these days, but some time ago, I dreamed of a big fire..."

Ning Zhe roughly knew what big fire she was talking about.

"Fen Wu didn't take away the 'inspiration' on her." Ning Zhe felt a bit confused.

The importance of this ability, which was similar to foreseeing the future, to a Gridder didn't need to be stated. Changing positions to think, if he were Fen Wu, he would never let Bai Zhi stay in Yunzhou with inspiration, unless there was some other reason.

Ning Zhe thought for a moment and said: "Remember to tell me next time you have a nightmare."

"Do you care so much about the dreams I have? Or do you want to help me treat my illness?" Bai Zhi blinked, feeling a bit confused: "But even if I tell you, it's useless. Mom has taken me to see many psychologists, but I still have nightmares..."

"Maybe it's useful?" Ning Zhe smiled and helped Bai Zhi peel another chocolate, placing it in her palm: "Leaving, see you if there's a chance in the future." "Okay..." Bai Zhi watched Ning Zhe walk out of the ward, looked down, and what was lying in her palm was a pure cocoa butter dark chocolate. The corners of her mouth that were raised immediately drooped down.

She didn't like eating dark chocolate; it was very bitter.

Bai Zhi closed her eyes and threw the bitter dark chocolate into her mouth. Her tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed: "What is it, it turns out to be hazelnut."

Even playing with patients, this person was bad to the core.

Leaving the hospital, Ning Zhe prepared to find Lan Shiwen to talk.

The prison trip didn't succeed, Fen Wu had hidden in the shadows again, and Ning Zhe's future needed to be re-planned.

"My top priority has two things. One is to find a way to find and kill Fen Wu, and the other is to find a ghost that can compensate for the defects of 'Jueyuan'."

Ning Zhe had only harnessed Jueyuan for a few days, and the truly fatal defects had not yet manifested. Time was relatively abundant, suitable for planning ahead early.

"Although it is said to be two things... actually, to some extent, it can also be counted as one thing." Ning Zhe thought in his heart.

When in Chengyu Valley Prison, Ning Zhe had mixed among the prisoners, using the 'God Who Cannot Be Looked Directly At' copied by Taiyi to brand those prisoners affected by Jueyuan with the thought steel seal that he was a god, thereby stealing the identity of the 'God Who Cannot Be Looked Directly At.'

Fen Wu seemed to have noticed this, made a decisive move, used the strange of modifying memories to clear all the memories of the prisoners affected by Jueyuan, turning them into a group of idiots without any autonomous ability.

—This was Ning Zhe's speculation, because after 'Fen Wu' entered the prison, the god identity he stole from the prisoners failed one after another.

There were two possibilities for this situation.

One was that the prisoners saw through Ning Zhe's identity and knew he wasn't actually a god, so Taiyi's 'change' naturally failed.

The second was that their memories were deleted, they didn't know anything, and naturally, they couldn't provide the medium required for Taiyi's operation: cognition.

Of the two possibilities, Ning Zhe was more inclined to the latter. He felt that it was highly probable that Fen Wu deleted the memories of those prisoners and reset the progress of his stealing Jueyuan's identity.

"The strange of modifying memories can delete the prisoners' memories along with the steel seal I branded in their thoughts. If there is a way to kill Fen Wu and harness his ghost, this is also a way to complement Jueyuan."

The premise was that Fen Wu had the ability to delete the thought steel seal branded by the real 'Jueyuan' himself.

"The thought steel seals in the minds of those prisoners were just false rules copied by Taiyi, so it's not strange that they would be deleted by the strange of modifying memories. And what I need to determine is, is Fen Wu's modification ability also effective against real ghosts? This will directly affect my next action strategy."

If Fen Wu's ability could really compensate for Jueyuan's defects, then...

Ning Zhe's eyes narrowed slightly, pulling a clear line from the messy thoughts in his mind.

Lan Shiwen, Feng Yushu... these people had all been branded with genuine thought steel seals by him. In this big game of chess, Ning Zhe had already been the first pawn to be arched out, so next...

"How are you going to move next, Fen Wu?"
