144 Selective Procrastination

“Um, would you believe me if I said that I didn’t see or hear anything just now?” Zhang Zizai, who was uncomfortable being seen by Fatty and the others, asked Lin Shuang and the others nervously with a conflicted expression.

Seeing Zhang Zizai like this, Lin Shuang was not disgusted. He knew his current personality. Before experiencing those things, he would unconsciously choose to escape anything that exceeded his imagination.

It was just like what he had seen in the television drama called iPartment, in a character called Zeng Xiaoxian who was played by Chen Chichi. At this moment, Zhang Zizai had a selective procrastination that was even more serious than Zeng Xiaoxian.

The more you push him now, the less he can make a choice. He can only make a decision if he follows the other party’s wishes and lets him figure it out himself. Thinking of this, Lin Shuang looked at Zhang Zizai, who had a conflicted expression. Under the surprised gazes of Fatty and the others, he chuckled and said to him gently,

!!
“Of course I believe you. You didn’t hear or see anything just now. After all, with the Five Senses Sealing Talisman and the Sixteen Taiyi Needles, wouldn’t it be easy for you to seal your vision and hearing?”

Hearing that Lin Shuang even knew about the Sixteen Taiyi Needles that he had never shown anyone, Zhang Zizai immediately felt unprecedented panic. He desperately wanted to escape this place, but he also wanted to know what Lin Shuang had just said to his team members and why he knew him so well.

After struggling for a moment, the selective procrastination in his heart acted up again and he began to find excuses for himself. Zhang Zizai asked Lin Shuang after convincing himself for a few minutes. “Since you believe my story, can I go? If I don’t leave now, I’ll miss lunch.”

As soon as he said this, Zhang Zizai regretted it and wished he could slap himself a few times. It was ten in the morning, and the time was ambiguous. Even saying that he was going for morning classes was better than eating!

Just as Zhang Zizai was about to explain, Lin Shuang spoke first and refuted his words. “Of course I believe you. If you can’t be trusted, then there’s no one in this world I can trust. If you want to eat, leave. Don’t make your master wait.”

Seeing Lin Shuang say this, Zhang Zizai felt his face burning. He did not expect the other party to believe his nonsense. This made him feel very ashamed.

At the same time, he was very curious why the other party believed him so much when he had only seen him once. Even if he knew that he was the last disciple of the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain and knew his real name, he shouldn’t believe him so much, right?

However, in his heart, Zhang Zizai, who had already occupied the highland due to procrastination, only wanted to escape as soon as possible and not cause any more trouble.

“Then I’ll go home and eat first. Goodbye, Guild Master.” With that, he prepared to go offline to escape this place that troubled him.

However, just as he was about to go offline, Lin Shuang suddenly stopped him. “Zhang Zizai, running away can’t solve the problem. I believe you will remember the conversation between me and my companions. When you think it through, come back and find me. I will wait for you at any time!”

Lin Shuang’s words were like a bomb that shattered all his thoughts, making him feel even more distraught and afraid to stay here any longer. He didn’t even dare to reply to Lin Shuang. He hurriedly went offline to avoid these questions and people that made him fluster.

Fatty and the others looked at Zhang Zizai who went offline and immediately felt puzzled. Then, they looked at Lin Shuang, who knew all the answers.

“Lin Shuang, this person who clearly has serious procrastination is the person who did the thing that Chu Feng and I swore to do in your memories? But I don’t believe that he’s such a decisive person.”

In response to Fatty’s question, Lin Shuang looked at the place where Zhang Zizai dissipated and recalled his memories. He slowly explained to Fatty and the others. “He does have a serious procrastination problem now. Moreover, he’s like a spring. The more you force him, the more he rebounds.

“But that’s him now. When the God Clan invades, when he watched all his fellow disciples who were willing to give up their lives for him and his master who had raised him painstakingly died in front of him, he will break out of his cocoon and be reborn. He was so decisive that you can’t believe that he would have such a serious procrastination at this time.”

Although Lin Shuang had only explained Zhang Zizai’s personality in the future firmly, Fatty and the others could tell that the other party would suffer tragically in the future.

Zhang Zizai must have broken down at that time when he watched the master who treated him like his own flesh and blood and his fellow disciples who were willing to die for him. No wonder he dared to enter the God Clan’s base camp and become a human bomb after turning the world upside down.

Most likely, when he saw all his senior brothers and master die tragically in front of him, the other party’s heart had already followed them. With the support of the thought of revenge, he was like a walking corpse as he continued to walk in the world to find those bastards to take revenge.

Staring at the place where Zhang Zizai disappeared for a moment, Lin Shuang gradually recovered from the other party’s tragic future.

“Alright, everyone. Our priority now is to choose the good seedlings who can be used as fuel for the plan. Although Zhang Zizai’s future fate is very tragic and even heartbreaking, if he chooses to continue avoiding that time, I won’t be able to save him.

“At that time, I reckon that only when Zhang Zizai personally experiences the future I see again or the same tragic experience descends on him can he wake up. That is the person I’m paying attention to. I’ve already done my best to give him some pointers.

“After all, the burden on us is too heavy. There are many things to consider and many things to do. We are already very lucky to meet Zhang Zizai here. But if the other party doesn’t want to integrate into us, then let him be.”
