Chapter 235 The Elixir of Life



Chapter 235 The Elixir of Life

Seeing that there was no one on the bed and the monitor kept beeping, the nurse stood at the door.

When the family members went to see the doctor before, they asked her to pay more attention to the patient and notify the family members and the doctor immediately if the patient woke up.

As a result, she arrived at the ward one minute late and the patient disappeared.

"Doctor—something happened—"

After coming to her senses, the nurse ran and shouted to the office to find the doctor.

When Jiayu and the doctor rushed over, they didn't see Qi Tianlin in the ward.

Jiayu was so worried that she almost fainted.

She was worried that her husband's disappearance might be related to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan should have accomplices.

Jiayu tried to calm down and think of a way to find Qi Tianlin.

She glanced at the surveillance camera in the corridor and hurriedly urged the medical staff:

"Go, check the surveillance."

However, after investigating the surveillance footage, something very strange occurred.

Before the nurse started making rounds until Jiayu left the ward, Qi Tianlin did not leave the ward.

In the monitoring room, the hospital staff repeatedly watched the surveillance footage and confirmed that the patient had not left the ward, and they couldn't help but break out in cold sweats.

Since the patient was not in the ward and the surveillance showed that the patient had not left the ward, where did the patient go?

Did he evaporate out of thin air in the ward?

Did the patient climb out of the window?

It's still daybreak and the ward is on the seventh floor. If the patient really climbs out of the window, wouldn't he be dead for sure?

However, the surveillance camera downstairs did not capture the patient falling from the building.

After such a long time, there has been no news of anyone accidentally falling from a building or committing suicide in the hospital.

Excluding the possibility of climbing out through the window, there was only one possibility left, that is - he evaporated out of thin air in the ward.

"It's so scary that a seriously injured person disappeared so mysteriously in the middle of the night."

"No, it's so creepy that it gives me goosebumps."

The staff in the monitoring room watched the surveillance footage repeatedly and started chatting.

Afterwards, they investigated the surveillance footage in other parts of the hospital. After checking all the surveillance footage in the hospital during the same period, the staff told Jiayu the results truthfully.

Upon learning that there was no sign of Qi Tianlin on any of the hospital's surveillance cameras, Jiayu did not make a fuss, nor did she feel despair over her husband's mysterious disappearance.

Instead, she returned to the ward and looked around it again, muttering:

"There are no signs of the surveillance being damaged, which means Tian Lin has not left the ward since he was sent to the ward. This can rule out the possibility that Tian Lin was kidnapped by someone."

"Since he disappeared in the ward, he either activated the time machine and returned to Daqi, or he climbed out through the window."

After this analysis, Jiayu walked to the window and looked around.

The window that was not closed reminded her that it was possible that Qi Tianlin had gone out through the window.

Qi Tianlin is very good at martial arts, so this seven-story building is not very dangerous for him.

but……

Thinking of Qi Tianlin being seriously injured, Jiayu felt relieved, but then it got heavier again.

"With such serious injuries, how can he have the strength to leave here? He can't joke with his own life."

"But the jade pendant is on me, and there's no movement from Daqi. It doesn't look like Tianlin has put it back on."

After having no clue what was going on, Jiayu informed the hospital and went home.

She asked the hospital to notify her immediately if they saw the patient coming back.

The police were notified and the whole city was searching for Qi Tianlin.

*

When I got home, it was already daybreak.

After not eating, drinking or washing for the whole night, Jiayu returned home without taking care of herself and went straight to find Lin Yuan who was locked in her studio.

The most likely scenario now is that Lin Yuan and other robots are active on Earth.

The robots took Qi Tianlin away silently through the window of the ward.

Only robots can have this ability.

When Jiayu arrived outside the studio, he stopped and saw the young woman walking back and forth at the door.

"Auntie, who are you?"

The woman opposite looked about the same age as her mother.

It was a stranger face, and she was not wearing servant's clothes. The only women currently living in her house whom she had never met were Teng Xixi's mother Teng Ying, and her mother-in-law Lan Xing.

Judging from her appearance, she is not her mother-in-law, but more like Teng Xixi's mother.

Hearing the voice, Teng Ying looked over.

When meeting Jiayu's gaze, Jiayu spoke again:

"Are you Mrs. Teng Yingteng?"

Teng Ying was shocked:

"Miss, who are you?"

It seems like she has never seen the other person before?

She had been living in Jia's house for two days, and this was the first time she met the other party.

This girl has a very pretty face to begin with, and wearing this ancient costume, it is no exaggeration to say that she is extremely stunningly beautiful.

Jiayu introduced herself neither humbly nor arrogantly:

"Mrs. Teng, I'm Jiayu. You should know me. My husband Qi Tianlin should have mentioned our affairs to you in the past two days."

And she had heard it with her own ears through the jade pendant.

Teng Ying was surprised and delighted:

"Jia Yu? Are you the Queen? Isn't the Queen in Daqi now? Did the time machine send you back?"

It was only after listening to the emperor's account of the whole story in the past two days that she learned that the eldest daughter of the Jia family was the wife of their Emperor Daqi.

Jiayu said, "I just came back. Let's not talk about this for now. Madam Teng, why are you here? Do you have something to ask my mother-in-law?"

She had often heard her husband mention that since her mother-in-law moved in with her, she had been spending most of her time in her studio researching the time machine.

I don’t know how the research is going now.

Teng Ying looked guilty, "My Lady..."

Jiayu said politely, "Mrs. Teng, in modern times, you can just call me by my name."

But Teng Ying was a person who cared about etiquette, so even if she didn't call Jiayu "Madam", she would still call her "Miss":

"Miss Jia, I am very grateful to the emperor for speaking up for us mother and daughter. He intends to teach my adopted son a lesson."

"But to be honest, in all these years, this adopted son has never committed any offense against his superiors."

"He emptied Teng's company and ran away with the money because he was forced into a corner by his adoptive father. He was worried that his adoptive father would take all the assets we worked so hard to earn for himself."

"He is locked up now, and he probably doesn't know what he did wrong."

Adopted son?

Adoptive father?

Locked in?

Jiayu got a surprising piece of information from Teng Ying's words.

She asked in surprise:

"Mrs. Teng, could it be that Lin Yuan... is your adopted son?"

Teng Ying nodded:

"Yes, Lin Yuan is my adopted son."

Thinking of something, Teng Ying asked in surprise:

"How did Miss Jia know my adopted son's real name? When he was a child, his name was Lin Yuan, but since he was adopted by me and his adoptive father, his name was changed to Teng Yuan."

"I thought that, except for a few people in my Teng family, no one would know the real name of my adopted son."

Jiayu found it incredible that Lin Yuan, an interstellar person, was raised by Teng Ying, an ancient man.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan was raised by Madam Teng.

Relying on his own technology, Lin Yuan has been secretly developing the artificial intelligence industry underground over the years and secretly cooperating with the Qiao family.

I guess he was worried about being discovered by Jia Jingyu, so he developed it secretly.

Fortunately, the resources of this era cannot keep up with Interstellar, so he cannot perform beyond his normal level.

On the contrary, she has made a qualitative leap in the field of artificial intelligence.

"Madam Teng, Lin Yuan's identity is not simple, and he is also very dangerous. I have my reasons for locking him up here. I hope you will not let him go just because he is your adopted son. This could easily lead to disaster."

She was just saying it verbally. Even if someone wanted to save Lin Yuan, it wouldn't be that easy.

She left the Phoenix in the studio to watch over Lin Yuan. Anyone who wanted to rescue Lin Yuan had to destroy the Phoenix.

However, even high-level thermal weapons are not able to destroy the Phoenix.

When it comes to right and wrong, Teng Ying is very clear about what is right and what is wrong. After listening to Jiayu's words, she dared not have any other thoughts about her adopted son.

"Don't worry, Miss Jia. I won't go in to see him without your permission."

Jiayu said: "You can see him, but you can't let him go."

"Okay ma'am, I won't talk to you for now. I'm going to go in and take care of something."

After saying that, Jiayu entered her studio.

Not long after, they arrived at the door of the secret room where Lin Yuan was imprisoned.

Jiayu ordered Fenghuang who was guarding the door.

"Open the door."

After receiving the order, Phoenix took out the key and opened the lock.

Jiayu opened the door and walked in.

The secret room is not very narrow, but there is nothing inside, it is a pure white space.

At this moment, Lin Yuan's hands and feet were chained. He sat in a corner, leaning against the wall, looking decadent and lifeless.

In his world, once Jia Jingyu died, his world collapsed.

The death of Jia Jingyu means that everything he had done before to change his fate will be wiped out.

Once Jia Jingyu died, technology regressed five hundred years. Even if he returned to the interstellar space, it would be difficult for him to teach the interstellar people how to create robots.

But he alone could not build a huge sci-fi planet.

He defied fate and changed his destiny, and his technology is still there, but apart from him, humans five hundred years later have average technology.

Because Jia Jingyu died in this era, which affected the course of history, in the next 500 years, it will be difficult for technology to reach the level it was when Jia Jingyu was alive.

When the light in front of him was blocked, Lin Yuansheng raised his head with despair.

After meeting Jiayu's beautiful eyes, he spoke numbly:

"What are you doing here, are you making fun of me?"

"Although your grandfather won, for me, it was a lose-lose outcome. There is nothing good for you to laugh at me for."

Jiayu spoke expressionlessly:

"In fact, if I kill you, the interstellar human crisis will be resolved, right?"

Lin Yuan's body trembled, and there was finally some fluctuation in his eyes.

Jiayu's cold and lonely gaze was cast elsewhere without focus, and he spoke softly:

"It's not like my grandpa didn't think of this. If he wanted to kill you in this world, he wouldn't have waited until today."

"He was so afraid that technology would backfire on humanity that he changed fate and set technology back 500 years."

"In fact, he also understands that the high-ranking officials in that world are all your people. Even if he kills you, he will die when he returns. Why not erase 500 years of technological level from history?"

Lin Yuan said calmly:

"It's no use saying these things. Once your grandfather died, my grand plans became a bubble. No matter how hard I try, I can't go back to the past glory."

"Like your grandfather, I only have one year left to live. My time machine is in your hands now, and I can't go back. You can kill me or chop me up, it's up to you."

Jiayu asked in confusion:

"Why do you have to kill all humans and rule the galaxy?"

"Don't you know that if technology backfires, you'll end up being controlled by robots? Why bother?"

Lin Yuan rarely calmed down:

"Since your grandfather is dead, I have nothing to look forward to, so I will tell you the truth. I do this for two reasons."

"First of all, I want to be the king among men, whether it's the world overlord among humans or the overlord in the robot world, I want to be the one with the highest power and status in the galaxy."

"Secondly, someone in our galaxy has developed a drug that can delay aging, but it is extremely scarce. I heard that the amount is so scarce that there is only enough for two or three people."

"To prevent everyone from snatching it away in the future, I have to strike first."

"The fewer people there are, the greater my chances of getting the elixir of life."

"I have the elixir of life and I am the overlord of the stars. I can do whatever I want in the future. What a happy life!"

Jiayu: "Have you ever thought about this? By then, there will only be a few humans left. Don't you think life will be very depressing facing cold robots every day?"

Lin Yuan: "You are still young, you don't understand, having no power and no influence is the most depressing thing."

"Well, since we have different views, I have nothing to talk to you about."

Seeing her leave without doing anything, Lin Yuan was surprised and asked:

"Aren't you here to kill me?"

"Your grandfather was killed because of me. Isn't it your first wish to avenge him?"

Jiayu said coldly:

"I'm going to find all of your robots that have escaped capture and destroy them, and then I'm going to deal with you."

"I can't let you die and leave harm to the world."

Lin Yuan looked hopeless:

"No need to look for it. My achievements in the modern era over the years were destroyed by you when I was in the hospital. Now, I just want you to give me a quick death."

Jiayu was shocked and puzzled.

If it wasn’t Lin Yuan’s robot that took Tian Lin away, where did Tian Lin go?

*

After formally meeting her parents-in-law and telling them what happened in the hospital, Jiayu was sent back to her room and forced to rest.

I was worried that she wouldn't sleep all night and it would be bad for her health.

"Yuyu, be obedient. Your father and I will go find Tianlin. You should have a good rest. You can't endure it any longer."

"You didn't sleep yesterday, and you traveled back through time and space. This has caused great damage to your body. You must get enough rest."

After Jiayu rested, Qi's father and mother went out to look for their son.

I don’t know if it was because he didn’t sleep the whole day and night, or because he was too nervous, but Jiayu slept for a long time.

I slept from morning until seven or eight in the evening.

After waking up naturally, I turned over lazily, but when I let go of my hand, it didn't fall on the soft quilt, but hit something instead.

At this time, she closed her eyes and pinched it with confusion.

The more I touched it, the more I felt something was wrong.

that is not……

Boom~

Oh no!

There must be a man sitting next to the bed!

Jiayu was so frightened that he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
