Chapter 707 Su Wuming 6
Su Wuming was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to find his voice: "Then... wouldn't that be faster than flying?"
The image of himself riding his horse at its fastest speed emerged in his mind, and then comparing it with the sight of the red "iron box" galloping past, he suddenly felt that his horse was just an old ox pulling a broken cart.
"Of course, this is just an ordinary car. There are faster ones, such as airplanes, rockets and so on..." Chu Huan said, and clicked on a video of a rocket launch.
A huge flame spurted out, and the rocket rushed straight into the sky with a long tail flame. Su Wuming was stunned and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"This...is this going to fly into the sky?"
He muttered to himself, feeling that his worldview had been greatly impacted.
"Yes, this is called a rocket, and it can fly to the moon!" Chu Hua continued to make up stories. Anyway, Su Wuming didn't know what was on the moon.
Su Wuming was completely confused. He felt like he was listening to a myth, but he also felt that this "myth" was so real before his eyes that he had to believe it.
"The moon...are there people living on the moon?" he asked cautiously, like a student eager to learn.
Chu Hua almost couldn't hold back her laughter. This idiot's reaction was so cute! She nodded in a pretentious manner: "Of course there are people living there, and there are Chang'e, Jade Rabbit and so on..."
Su Wuming was stunned when he heard this, as if he had seen the fairies and rabbits on the moon.
"Turns out... turns out to be true..." His eyes were full of longing, as if he was about to fly to the moon to find the fairy Chang'e in the next second.
Chu Hua was delighted when she saw Su Wuming's cute look. It seemed that this task was not that difficult!
"Ahem..." She cleared her throat and decided to strike while the iron was hot: "I won't tease you anymore. So far, no traces of other life have been found on the moon. Lord Su's famous saying is right. There are neither gods nor ghosts in this world, there are only people who pretend to be gods and ghosts!"
Su Wuming blinked, as if he had just woken up from his dream of Chang'e and the Jade Rabbit. He touched his nose with a little embarrassment.
"Miss, do you know what Su said?"
Su Wuming asked with a little surprise, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.
He originally thought that this sentence was only circulated in a small circle, but he didn't expect that the girl from the future also knew it. Could it be that this sentence was also widely circulated a thousand years later?
He wondered to himself, could it be that his thoughts were so advanced that they were still remembered after thousands of years?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, and he straightened his chest, waiting for Chu Hua's answer. He stared at Chu Hua with burning eyes, hoping to get a positive answer from her.
Chu Hua curled up the corners of her mouth, revealing a sly smile.
"I know a thing or two. Lord Su is an expert at solving cases, and his famous sayings are naturally well-known. But I didn't expect that Lord Su would be so interested in what happened a thousand years later."
Su Wuming scratched his head in embarrassment: "What the young lady just said is really... unbelievable. It is difficult for Su to digest it for the time being."
Su Wuming looked into Chu Hua's eyes. Those eyes were clear and bright, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, or like a bottomless pool of water, attracting him to sink into them involuntarily.
He felt his heart beating faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
Chu Hua felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him and blinked subconsciously. Her long eyelashes were like two small fans, gently sweeping across Su Wuming's heart, bringing a tingling sensation.
"Lord Su, is there something on my face?" Chu Hua asked softly, with a hint of teasing in her tone.
Su Wuming finally came back to his senses, a blush appeared on his face, and he hurriedly looked away.
"Nothing... nothing..." he replied hesitantly, feeling like a young boy who had just fallen in love, extremely embarrassed.
Su Wuming hadn't recovered from the ambiguous atmosphere just now when he was brought back to reality by a burst of hurried footsteps. A yamen runner from Chang'an County came running over, sweating and panting, and reported: "Lieutenant Su, it's bad! A body was found... found in Jing'an Temple in the west of the city!"
Su Wuming's brows tightened, and this sudden news made his heart sink.
"Corpse? Whose corpse?"
The yamen runner took a breath and continued, "I don't know, but I heard that the Lieutenant General of the Jinwu Guard has already led people over there!"
Chu Hua's eyes rolled, and she thought to herself: Here comes the opportunity! This is a good opportunity to enhance our relationship and advance the system mission at the same time!
So she immediately put on a concerned look and asked softly, "Master Su, is there any important case?"
Su Wuming looked at her with a trace of worry between his brows: "A body was found in Jing'an Temple in the west of the city. The situation is unclear. I have to rush over immediately."
He paused, then added, "Girl, you should stay here. The scene of the coroner performing the autopsy... might disturb you."
Chu Hua pretended to be disappointed and sighed: "Alas, I also want to see the crime scene in the Tang Dynasty. Lord Su, please take me there, I promise I won't cause any trouble!"
She blinked her big eyes and looked at Su Wuming expectantly, but she was thinking in her heart: Although she hasn't finished reading it, it should be okay to ask her to show off her skills in front of Lord Su, right?
Su Wuming felt sorry for her pitiful appearance, but when he thought of the tragic scene of the murder, he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this case..."
Chu Huan gently grabbed Su Wuming's sleeve and shook it gently. Her big watery eyes blinked like the twinkling stars in the night sky.
"Lord Su, just take me with you! I wrote mystery novels in modern times, maybe I can help! Besides, I also want to see what the crime scene in the Tang Dynasty looked like, okay?" She dragged out the last syllable, her voice was as sweet as honey, and no one would be able to refuse it.
Su Wuming was a little bit at a loss for what to do with her sudden coquettishness, and his face became even redder, like a ripe apple.
He subconsciously wanted to pull back his sleeve, but was reluctant. The soft touch caused ripples in his heart.
He stammered, "This... this is not good... the murder scene... bloody... not suitable for a girl..."
Seeing that he was a little bit relaxed, Chu Hua immediately took advantage of the situation and pouted her lips, pretending to be wronged and said: "Sir Su, do you despise me because I am a girl and can't help? Although I can't wield a sword or a gun, I am very smart! Maybe I can find some clues!"
As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Su Wuming. Seeing that he seemed to be still hesitating, she added another dose of strong medicine, gently pulled his sleeve, and said pitifully: "Master Su, please, I beg you, I have finally traveled to the Tang Dynasty, and I have never seen a real murder scene! Please just satisfy my curiosity, okay?"
