When Jiang Nianjiao saw Lianying lowering her head, she knew that she was probably feeling guilty.

And the news of Zhao Yanzhen's death is likely to be close to the truth.

Therefore, she was too lazy to continue asking, but although she knew that there was such a thing as Zhao Yanzhen's death, it was still difficult for her to accept this fact.

For some reason, she always felt that how could someone as smart as Zhao Yanzhen die? What's more, after two lifetimes, couldn't he still be unable to guard against the fate he had known for a long time?

Therefore, when she heard the bad news, although she felt stuffy in her heart, because of the unreality, her performance was a little too calm.

Lianying said softly, "Miss, did you hear wrongly? How could something happen to Your Highness?"

As expected, there was not a word of truth in Lianying's mouth.

But Jiang Nianjiao still followed her words and continued, "Yes, how could something happen to him?"

Lingying couldn't see Jiang Nianjiao's emotions, but seeing that her expression seemed very calm, she thought that Jiang Nianjiao didn't care about this matter.

She whispered, "Miss, your health is still important right now. Let's go back and lie down first."

Jiang Nianjiao was also very cooperative with Lianying's words. Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao seemed fine, Lianying naturally couldn't say much else.

After drinking the decoction, Jiang Nianjiao only said to Lianying, "Lianying, I'm a little sleepy. You can go out first."

After all, Lianying was a little worried. She just said, "Miss, go to sleep. I will embroider the handkerchief nearby. I promise not to disturb the lady."

"Okay, then help me put down the bed curtain." Jiang Nianjiao said without strength.

Lianying saw that she just looked bad, so she agreed to her suggestion.

However, when the curtain was lowered, the person who originally said he couldn't sleep opened his big almond-shaped eyes and stared blankly at the top of the bed curtain.

"System, they said something happened to Zhao Yanzhen? They lied to me, right?" Jiang Nianjiao only asked the system, which she had not spoken to for a long time.

After a moment of silence, the system did not answer Jiang Nianjiao's words, but it opened some screen clips for Jiang Nianjiao.

There were long stretches of yellow sand, and many white tents were stationed in the wilderness. Between the sky and the ground, a group of soldiers were making fires and setting up pots for cooking.

The air seemed to be filled with the aroma of meat and vegetables, but the chef in charge suddenly covered his stomach after frying the large pot of food for a while, and he only showed an extremely awkward and uncomfortable expression. , then he turned his eyes and pointed at the young soldier who was busy making a fire in front of the stove. He only motioned to the soldier to come over and take his place.

The soldier didn't say much. He took over the job from the cook and continued to stir-fry the dishes in the pot. However, after the cook left and people didn't notice him, he suddenly took out the food from his arms. A packet of white powder. The powder was very fine. Without a closer look, others might have thought it was just some added salt. Therefore, when he sprinkled the entire packet of powder into the pot, no one paid attention to his actions.

Then the scene changed. Several burly men at the foot of Black Eagle Mountain only walked around the cliffs and climbed down the mountain. After descending the mountain, they only walked around to the rear of Yunzhou's army, and then they hid in the trees and waited. When he had the opportunity, he watched the soldiers under the forest.

As night fell and the sky gradually darkened, Yunzhou's army began to eat one after another. Both the general and the ordinary soldiers were eating the meals sent by the cooks at the rear.

Even among these people, she saw Zhao Yanzhen, who was wearing a silver-white armor and holding a bowl with a slightly tired look, but even so, his fatigue did not cover up his grace at all.

Even because there were a group of rough guys standing next to him, his presence stood out even more. A soldier recognized him and only tried to let him get food first, but Zhao Yanzhen quickly rejected that person.

He just stood in line obediently, and after receiving the food, he found a place to eat the same meal as the soldiers.

Jiang Nianjiao really wanted him not to eat the food in the bowl, but unfortunately he was obviously very hungry. Not to mention not eating the food, he only ate all the food in the dish.

And because these scenes had already happened, Jiang Nianjiao's shouts could not be conveyed to Zhao Yanzhen at the time.

Use later

After dinner, those who did not have any missions would go back to the camp to get news, while those who had missions would continue to perform their missions.

As a senior officer, Zhao Yanzhen obviously did not need to patrol. After returning to the camp, he only looked at the terrain map by candlelight for a while and made some marks on some key terrains.

Then he remembered something, so he just took out a writing brush from the pen holder. After the guards on the side polished the ink for him, he used the pen dipped in ink to write on a piece of letter paper. After writing only three or four words, he seemed to be dissatisfied, balled up the letter paper, and threw it into the garbage jar at the bottom. After repeating this several times, his thoughts finally became smoother. However, at the moment, he only felt a deep sleepiness coming over him. In the end, after he could only write three or two lines, he fell asleep on the desk.

The guard next to him seemed to be unable to hold his eyelids any longer, and fell directly to the ground.

It was completely dark on the other side, and the few big men who had come down from Black Eagle Mountain came out of the forest. Under the cover of the night, they sneakily approached the Yunzhou army. .

At this time, the tent was filled with soldiers walking back and forth. They held spears in their hands and only patrolled between the camps.

However, tonight they seemed extra sleepy for some reason, and even the patrolling soldiers couldn't help but yawn.

Finally, when the bandits in Black Eagle Mountain threw down the fire certificate, the patrol soldier who should have discovered the source of the fire in time suddenly fell to the ground without warning.

Therefore, without their reminder and timely notification, the fire, fueled by flammable materials, quickly ignited from a small flame into a large fireball. In the end, the fireball only swept everything, Soon the military camp was burned into a sea of ​​flames.

What is strange is that when the fire burned, not only the patrol soldiers fell to the ground without any reaction, but even the soldiers in the military camp did not come out of the camp.

They were so sleepy that they could never wake up after eating the food in question, so Jiang Nianjiao could only watch the flames devour everything.

And the picture gradually switched from a part to the whole. She didn't know how long the fire had been burning. She only saw that in the picture engulfed by the flames, no one in the military camp came out.

And the whole episode ended in a sky of flames.

Looking at this scene, what else could Jiang Nianjiao say?

Can she still bury her head in the sand like an ostrich and deny that Zhao Yanzhen is fine?

"This is all the footage I captured before his accident." The system blocked the last bit of Jiang Nianjiao's imagination with its mechanical voice.

It was only at this moment that she seemed to understand that Zhao Yanzhen was really dead.

She suddenly asked the system, "Are there any resurrection pills available for redemption in the mall? I haven't finished talking to him yet. I just need to say one more word to him."

Jiang Nianjiao's voice was almost pleading. However, in the past, Jiang Nianjiao wished that Jiang Nianjiao could spend more points. It seems that the system in this world where everything can be bought and sold rejected Jiang Nianjiao's request. "Host, please wake up. We don't sell this kind of medicine here, after all." It is obviously illogical to resurrect a dead person, and if you want to resurrect a person logically, unless he gets a chance to restart like you and binds the system."

"Then restart, then let him bind the system. Isn't he more suitable to carry out your mission than me?" Jiang Nianjiao asked.

The system sighed faintly, "No, he is not qualified. You are the most suitable host we have selected."

Then the system muttered in a low voice, "Besides, if you knew what kind of opportunity you were transferring, you would definitely regret it."

However, Jiang Nianjiao didn't hear the system's muttering, otherwise she would have pursued the system fiercely.

At this moment, she obviously didn't want to give up the possibility that the system said. She just asked stubbornly, "Why is he not suitable?"

"I can't tell you this, but when you accumulate enough points and get to know more hosts like you, you will naturally know what kind of world you are in now." The system's attitude at this moment was very firm.

She knew that if the system wasn't going to tell her something, it would be useless no matter how hard she asked.

Similarly, the system does not allow it

thing, no matter how much she begged, she couldn't get consent.

Therefore, when there was no room for change between the two sides, Jiang Nianjiao regained her composure.

For some reason, she should be feeling very uncomfortable at the moment, but after she was truly sure of his death, she couldn't cry at the moment.

Anyway, she never got what she wanted, and she couldn't protect anyone she wanted to protect.

She is just a supporting actress after all. Without the aura of a protagonist, why does she think that everything in this world can fulfill her wish?

Although she behaved very quietly, the system seemed to be able to understand her sadness at the moment. Although the system's voice was still stiff and mechanical, Jiang Nianjiao still understood his intention to comfort her.

"But what I can tell you is that everything here is fake. You don't need to take it too seriously. After a while, when you look at your current experience, you will know that this place is just a dream you had."

When you wake up from the dream, you will forget it.

The system's words were specious. When Jiang Nianjiao heard the system mention dreams, Jiang Nianjiao suddenly thought of the little boy and girl in the strange house.

If I am here in a dream, then what are the boys and girls in the dream? Are they the real ones?

When Jiang Nianjiao thought about that dream, she felt more and more uneasy. She actually wanted to talk to the system and analyze all this, but now she was also deeply wary of the system.

Is the system really worthy of your trust?
