Chapter: 17
After Xue Lingqiao got acquainted with his new house, he heard Tian Jingzhi's heartbeat soar to one hundred and twelve per minute.
But she still lay quietly, motionless.
He poured a glass of water and put it next to her, "Don't pretend to be asleep when you wake up."
Tian Jingzhi remained motionless and seemed to be in a deep sleep.
Xue Lingqiao plucked her ears speechlessly, and said quietly: "If you want to sleep forever, I can also fulfill you."
She immediately opened her eyes and got up, looked at him calmly for a while, and asked, "What the hell are you!"
"Just treat me as if I ate a devil fruit."
"Then come to me after you become the One Piece!"
Xue Lingqiao didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, and said directly: "I don't know anyone here except you. I just need a place to live, and it won't take long to find someone here. In return, during my stay here, I will will keep you safe."
Safety? Monsters have come to your door, is there anything more unsafe than this? Tian Jingzhi felt that he had heard an international joke.
Xue Lingqiao tilted her head slightly, and frowned imperceptibly, "You look very unlucky, I don't want you to be hit by a car for no reason and fall into the sewer to die. I absorbed your blood Come here, it will be very troublesome for me if you have an accident."
The biggest advantage of Tian Jingzhi is that he is too unlucky, he has encountered all kinds of messy things, and he is used to some weird emergencies. She picked up the water glass next to her and drank it in one gulp, calmed down quickly, and looked him up and down coldly with a pair of beautiful big eyes.
The creature in front of her was a species that she could not explain with science, but after confirming that he had no intention of harming her, Tian Jingzhi was not too afraid.
Elephants have never bothered to kill ants.
Leopards will not chase sika deer when they are not hungry.
In addition to eating and being eaten, the relationship between the overly powerful and the weak also involves mutual use.
Xue Lingqiao was quite surprised by this noble and glamorous expression, thinking that she would faint from fright two more times when she heard that she didn't leave.
"Okay, it's fine to live here, it's no problem to save the world." Ms. Tian said softly and understandingly, "There are a few questions, we need to have a frank talk, and get a deeper understanding of the other party's true inner desires . There are also living habits and basic background conditions..."
"speak English."
"What species are you, what do you eat, where did you come from?"
Xue Lingqiao glanced at her, her beautiful eyelids closed, and she showed a tired expression, which made me feel pity, "...I was a normal human being more than four hundred years ago, but then some strange things happened, I became Never grow old and never die..."
Tian Jingzhi squinted at him, with five large characters clearly written on his face: Dude, stop talking!
"I have been trying to find the answer for hundreds of years, until a few days ago when I was looking up modern biological science books, I saw a piece of information about telomeres and telomerase. Perhaps the secret of my longevity lies in it." Xue Lingqiao gave Tian Jingzhi a disdainful look, "Of course, human aging is a complicated study, and it will be difficult to explain it to you for a while. An explanation that suits your brain capacity is that my situation may be some kind of genetic mutation. "
Tian Jingzhi didn't pay attention to Xue Lingqiao's ridicule, she suddenly felt that this voice seemed a little familiar.
——Do you believe that there are people who live forever in this world?
