Chapter 1385 Lou Yu and Lu Xun
Under the light of the tent, a wet figure was standing there, holding a blue folder in his hand, with the lenses of his glasses covered in rain, looking extremely disheveled.
"Lou Yu, have you also received Yang Xiao's invitation?" Lu Xun asked straight to the point.
"I... I didn't." Lou Yu's confidence was a little lacking. "I only found out about this after receiving a message from Dr. Qi asking me if I wanted to take the same bus... I know it's not good to come uninvited, but I heard that you all had some... adventures here? So, I wanted to come and see."
"What do you mean by 'heard'?" Wu Tongyuan asked, "Weren't you there that day?"
"No, it wasn't me who came here that day, it was someone who looked exactly like me!"
"what?"
Wu Tongyuan frowned, "Are you twins?"
"No... I don't know how to tell you... but I saw him. He asked me to come here and take something from the crater... something that originally belonged to me."
Behind Lou Yu's rain-soaked lenses, his gaze became extremely serious.
Wu Tongyuan was at a loss. He didn't understand what Lou Yu was saying, so he could only look at Lu Xun beside him...
Lu Xun hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the military personnel beside him:
"Contact Yang Xiao and see what he says."
In any case, Yang Xiao did not invite Lou Yu at the beginning. Lu Xun believed in Yang Xiao, and even more so in Director Chen. He felt that they must have their reasons for doing so... But now Lou Yu's inexplicable appearance here is undoubtedly a variable.
The figure at the side nodded and immediately used the communicator to contact the camp at the crater.
……
"What did you say?"
At the entrance of the camp, Yang Xiao’s brows suddenly furrowed.
"What's wrong?" Su Zhiwei, who happened to be passing by, walked up to his side.
"…something unexpected happened."
Yang Xiao looked back at the camp tent and saw three figures playing Landlord with a deck of cards, and they didn't seem to notice this place.
Yang Xiao glanced at the surveillance cameras throughout the camp again. With a slight movement of his fingertips, the images of these cameras were controlled by him, including the twelve hidden monitoring devices in the tent, which were all rendered inoperable.
"Come out with me." Yang Xiao said in a low voice.
Su Zhiwei nodded slightly, and the two of them walked out of the camp quietly and headed towards the dark jungle beside them.
The two came to the empty jungle, and Yang Xiao spoke softly:
"Director Chen."
A moment later, a dark figure in a bright red robe emerged from the pitch-black jungle like a ghost.
"What happened?" Chen Ling asked.
"Lu Xun contacted me and said... Lou Yu is here too."
Chen Ling's eyes narrowed immediately.
"Lou Yu?"
"Yes, he said he met someone who looked exactly like him, and that person asked him to come here to take back what belonged to him." Yang Xiao himself was undecided, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked, "What should we do? Should we let him in?"
The exact same person…taking back what was his?
According to this statement, the Lou Yu at the whistle post now should be the original Lou Yu of this era, that is, the Lou Yu who did not obtain the power of the Red Star... Has the future Wujijun seen him? What happened between them?
What are the things that belong to him?
Chen Ling pondered for a long time before speaking:
"…Let him in."
If the person at the whistle post is really Lou Yu, an ordinary person of this era, then it doesn’t matter if he is allowed in;
If that was Wuji Jun disguised as an ordinary person, since he already knew that the Nine Juns were in Shennongjia, there would be no point in not letting him in... As long as he wanted, he could break through the sentry post and come to this camp in an instant, killing all the Nine Juns here, and would not give Lu Xun any chance to send a message here.
After getting Chen Ling's answer, Yang Xiao sent a message directly to the sentry post, asking them to come in together.
"You stay here, I'll go over there and take a look."
Chen Ling took a step back, and his dark figure disappeared into the dark jungle again.
Chen Ling was still worried about Lou Yu. He shuttled quickly through the jungle and soon arrived near the sentry post...
At this time, Lou Yu had just been allowed to go in with Lu Xun and Wu Tongyuan.
"Wu Tongyuan?"
Chen Ling saw the thinner and haggard figure, and his eyes fell on Lou Yu next to him again...
Last time, Wuji Jun Lou Yu did not hide his murderous intentions towards Wu Tongyuan at all, but this time Lou Yu walked next to Wu Tongyuan, so close that he could kill him with just the slightest movement of his fingers, but he had no intention of taking action.
From this, it seems that the Lou Yu in front of him is really not the Wuji Jun that Chen Ling has in mind.
Neither Lu Xun, Wu Tongyuan, nor Lou Yu noticed Chen Ling's presence in the dark.
"Lou Yu, why do you feel so much thinner than before?" Lu Xun looked at Lou Yu beside him carefully.
"The last time we met was last year, right? After the Chinese New Year, I seem to have been like this." Lou Yu smiled bitterly, "After all, I am not like you, who has such a respected teacher as a backer... I am under too much pressure."
Lu Xun subconsciously wanted to say that they had just met some time ago, but according to Lou Yu, the last time they met should be another him...
No wonder he felt that Lou Yu was a little different the last time he came into contact with him. He thought that Lou Yu had made a breakthrough in scientific research in the past year and had become a lot more stable.
"Gold will always shine." Lu Xun said seriously.
"We have known each other since you were a doctoral student... I knew how suitable you were for scientific research. Later, I asked you to go to a research institute in Shanghai with me, but you ended up choosing another one... If you had gone to Shanghai with me at the time, perhaps everything would have been different."
"...You know, Lu Xun, they were the only ones willing to give me a high bonus at the time...My mother was sick, I had no choice..." Lou Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"It's not that I don't want to choose a brighter future... I'm just a child from a poor family. I don't have the confidence and capital to pursue a brighter future... Besides, my luck is not as good as yours."
Lu Xun looked at Lou Yu who was dejected and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Lu Xun, I just learned that you invited me to join you for exploration some time ago... To be honest, I am very grateful to you. You are the only one who has trusted me and given me the opportunity to show myself all the way to where I am today... But during that time, my phone was stolen and I had no idea about it."
Lou Yu paused for a moment, looked into the deep night in the distance, and muttered to himself,
"If I hadn't missed your invitation, and had gone with you to explore the Red Star, and had the same adventures as you did... perhaps my life would have been different, right?"
