Chapter 80
"This big brother, do you know my father and mother? I... I won't suddenly disappear like that big brother just now, will I?" Wang Tiezhu suddenly asked Wang Yu, stuttering.
"I do indeed know your father and mother, and I even know your brother. I actually lived in Wang Family Village; just call me Big Brother Wang. As for whether you will disappear like that person just now, I need to ask you a few questions first before I can know," Wang Yu looked at the boy's familiar features and replied kindly.
"So Big Brother Wang has also been to Wang Family Village, that's great. If you have any questions, just ask; I will definitely answer," the boy was overjoyed upon hearing this and patted his chest, guaranteeing it like he had found a life-saving straw.
Helena stood on the side, smiling without a word.
"Tiezhu, do you still remember how you arrived at that pitch-black place just now?" As soon as Wang Yu opened his mouth, he asked the question he was most concerned about.
"I'm not too clear either; I only remember I was sleeping in the room, and as soon as I woke up, I arrived at that place," Wang Tiezhu clearly had a great shadow over the game pod's dark space; as soon as he heard Wang Yu mention it, his face turned somewhat pale.
"Sleeping in what room? At home in Wang Family Village?" Wang Yu furrowed his brows and asked again.
"No, I've been sleeping in a stone room recently," Wang Tiezhu shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this.
"A stone room? Are you talking about that stone room on the cliff?" Wang Yu was stunned and hurriedly asked further.
"Big Brother Wang, how did you know? That place is so strange. I clearly remember I was helping my father and mother plow the wasteland in Wang Family Village, and I don't know how I suddenly appeared there.
The stone room is empty, and I live there alone. I don't dare to walk around randomly; when I'm hungry or thirsty, I just eat a kind of green pill that Uncle Gu sends.
That pill is an extremely good thing, fragrant and delicious; as long as I eat it once every few days, I won't be hungry or thirsty.
For fear of people stealing them, I hid all the green pills under the bed.
By the way, Big Brother Wang, I seem to have grown up all of a sudden and have become taller than my brother..." Wang Tiezhu said in a disjointed manner.
Wang Yu was even more shocked as he listened and couldn't help but interrupt the boy's words again, asking:
"Who is this Uncle Gu you are talking about? Is he the person whose hair is half red? What did he say to you?"
"Big Brother Wang, do you also know Uncle Gu?
When I woke up in the stone room, I saw this Uncle Gu. He said something about the ancestral elder's spellcasting having a mistake, causing my soul to be damaged and losing part of my memory, so that ancestral elder gave me an inner sect disciple identity or something.
I don't know what he meant, so I could only agree to everything.
By the way, for the first few days, he also came every day to teach me to cultivate that Fire Spirit Art, making my body feel hot every day; it was very interesting. But later, the number of times he came became fewer and fewer; the last time I saw him was six or seven days ago," Wang Tiezhu said while recalling, seemingly very attached to this "Uncle Gu."
Wang Yu was completely speechless upon hearing this.
By this time, how could he not understand what had happened?
It turned out that the one controlling his body to cultivate during this period was actually this Wang Tiezhu.
As the original owner of the body in the cultivation world, he had originally thought that the other party had been replaced by his consciousness and no longer existed, but now it seemed that was not the case.
Back then, when his consciousness was forced away by Elder Li Huo's spellcasting, Wang Tiezhu, the original owner's consciousness, had emerged from the body for some reason.
And that Elder Li Huo seemed not to have discovered that this body had changed to another person; instead, he thought his spellcasting had failed, causing damage to the soul and memory loss, and even gave him an inner sect disciple qualification as compensation.
But from Wang Tiezhu's narrative, that Gu Jin Shibo took quite good care of Wang Tiezhu; it was unknown whether it was Elder Li Huo's instruction or Gu Jin Shibo's own intention.
Wang Yu pondered, his expression flickering uncertainly.
"Big Brother Wang, I won't be in trouble, will I?" Wang Tiezhu saw this situation and couldn't help but ask in a small voice.
"Rest assured, you likely won't be in trouble. You just stay here; I will find a way to let you see the light of day again," Wang Yu comforted the boy with two sentences.
He had always felt a bit guilty about occupying the boy's body, so if he had a chance to make it up to the other party, he naturally wouldn't be stingy with help.
"That's great."
Wang Tiezhu was relieved upon hearing this.
The golden-haired woman who had been standing on the side heard their conversation, her expression slightly strange, and finally spoke again:
"Are you sure we can stay here for a long time and won't have any trouble?"
"Whether I'm sure or not, I'll know immediately. Taiyuan, exit login interface," Wang Yu said faintly and suddenly shouted at the giant screen.
The next moment, Wang Yu only felt a roll of white light, and he appeared back on the bed in the stone room.
He raised his hands to look, found no abnormalities in his body, and closed his eyes to scan his sea of consciousness with his spiritual sense, also finding no abnormalities, only then did he let out a long breath and feel slightly relieved.
He didn't want to discover that there was still another consciousness in his brain constantly peeping at him.
Subsequently, Wang Yu groped under the bed again and really found a small wooden box. After opening it, there were seven or eight green pills inside, with a fragrant smell.
It seemed to be Bigu Pills.
Wang Yu's brain instantly flashed through the last few pages of the book "Introduction to Pharmacist Theory" he had read, which displayed several practical pills.
He silently put the box into the storage bag and whispered "Taiyuan, enter login interface."
Amidst the flashing white light, Wang Yu appeared in the silver hall once again.
The golden-haired beauty and Wang Tiezhu were strikingly still there.
"How long have I been gone? Have you been staying here the whole time I wasn't here?" Wang Yu asked the golden-haired woman.
"The two of us have been here the whole time; you only disappeared for a while, the specific time was about one minute and thirty-six seconds," the golden-haired woman's gaze flickered, but she answered without hesitation.
The boy on the side also nodded repeatedly.
"So that means you can stay here for a long time, and the time flow inside and outside is the same," Wang Yu murmured twice.
"I should be able to stay here for a long time, but this little fellow might not be," Helena sighed at this moment.
"What does that mean?" Wang Yu was stunned and looked at the golden-haired woman.
The boy Wang Tiezhu was panicked again upon hearing this.
"Haven't you noticed? Little fellow, pull up the clothes on your belly," the golden-haired woman turned her head and ordered the boy.
Wang Tiezhu was stunned and couldn't help but look at Wang Yu.
Wang Yu furrowed his brows but still nodded at him.
Only then did the boy pull the clothes on his belly upward.
After Wang Yu saw the situation on his belly clearly, his expression changed drastically.
He saw a blurry, large hole appearing on the boy's belly, and it was expanding toward the surroundings at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Not long ago, I felt his body energy constantly dissipating; at first it was very slow, but later it became faster and faster. Now, it is estimated that he will completely disappear in about five or six minutes," the golden-haired woman said faintly.
"What is going on? Didn't you say he is an independent individual? How can he also disappear?" Wang Yu subconsciously clenched his hands and shouted angrily at the woman.
"He is an independent individual, that's true, but the mental energy that makes up his body is identical to yours.
In my electromagnetic induction, his body energy is rapidly dissipating toward you, just like two magnets of the same nature, one strong and one weak, approaching each other; the strong magnetic field will suck away all the energy of the weak magnetic field," the golden-haired woman explained slowly with an example.
"Big Brother Wang, save me?" Wang Tiezhu vaguely understood something, and after seeing the large hole on his belly, he shouted to Wang Yu for help in panic.
"Then what if I leave here?" Wang Yu's thoughts turned, and he asked quickly.
"It's the same; I've observed that even if you left just now, his body energy was still dissipating, and it couldn't be stopped at all," Helena still shook her head.
The boy's face turned pale.
"So that means you have no way either? Who was it that said to me just now that you would be of great use to me?" Wang Yu glanced at the golden-haired woman and said coldly.
"Who said there's no way? If you look at it from a certain sense, it's not impossible to save him; you forgot my ability," Helena smiled upon hearing this, subsequently raised a palm, electric light coiling between her five fingers, and the sound of thunder rang out.
"You mean memory copying!" Wang Yu was suddenly somewhat enlightened.
"That's right. I discovered that even here, my electromagnetic ability can still be used, but because there is no body, the mental power consumed cannot be replenished. So, I need you to agree to one condition before I will help you copy his memory data, so that maybe he can be resurrected in the future," the golden-haired beauty said confidently.
"What condition? Tell me and let me hear it," Wang Yu pondered for a moment before saying quickly.
"It's very simple; you just have to promise to take me away from here one day in the future," the golden-haired beauty said frankly.
"How do you know I really have the ability to take you away from here?" Wang Yu asked back.
"Even if you can't now, it doesn't mean you won't be able to in the future. I only want a promise from you; whether you go back on it later is up to you, and I haven't added any harsh conditions," Helena replied, appearing calm.
Wang Yu was silent upon hearing this.
"Big Brother Wang, it's getting bigger and bigger; I can't feel my lower body anymore," Wang Tiezhu shouted to Wang Yu's side, almost with a crying voice.
Wang Yu heard this and hurriedly looked at him again.
He saw that the blurry large hole on the boy's belly had already split his body into two halves, but he could still speak, which looked extremely strange.
"Fine, go ahead and do it; I agree to this condition," Wang Yu sighed and finally agreed to the woman's condition.
"Very good, it's a deal. Although there is no helmet to assist, it's just consuming a bit more mental power," Helena was all smiles upon hearing this, the arc light in her hand surged, and she walked toward the boy opposite her gracefully.
