Shen Qing was infamous in his village as a fierce ger who no one wanted to marry. After being “kicked out” of his home alongside his mother by his biased grandparents and a father who was despe...
Shen Qing's eyes suddenly widened.
He had seen kissing scenes in TV dramas, and occasionally saw lovers unable to control their emotions kissing in the street at the base, but when this happened to him, Shen Qing, an ancient man, still found it difficult to adapt.
Even though he was the one who started it, kissing the forehead and cheek was already his limit. Mouth to mouth, this was too much...
Besides, Song Kaiji's kiss was totally different from those light kisses in TV dramas! Song Kaiji had no experience at first, so he just rubbed Shen Qing's lips back and forth. Gradually, he was not satisfied with this and began to gently nibble Shen Qing's lower lip, and his flexible tongue also pried open Shen Qing's teeth...
Shen Qing's hands grabbed at the air a few times, as if he wanted to grab Song Kaiji's shoulders or clothes. But his wrist was held by Song Kaiji, and he couldn't grab anything, so he could only struggle in vain, like a small fish out of water. The upper palate that was constantly stroked by the tip of the tongue brought an indescribable feeling, and a secret numbness jumped up along his spine.
After a while, Song Kaiji finally let him go. Looking at Shen Qing's flushed face and watery eyes, he felt unsatisfied and wanted to do it again: "Close your eyes, breathe, relax..."
His breathing was a little unstable, and his eyes were full of aggression, a little like the cold look Shen Qing saw at the gate of the base, but with a little more feeling that made Shen Qing blush and his heart beat faster.
He couldn't describe what this feeling was, it seemed very dangerous, yet extremely charming.
Before he could get close to her again, Shen Qing pushed him away and moved two feet away: "No, not again... This kind of thing, this kind of thing can only be done after marriage!"
"You can only do that kind of thing after you get married, but not this kind." Song Kaiji squeezed over and pecked at the corner of his lips again. The young boy who had tasted the sweetness was not so easy to deal with. He arched his big head against Shen Qing's neck and acted coquettishly: "Then when will you marry me?"
"Wait, wait until you see my mother." Shen Qing tried to push him away in a panic, but couldn't bear to push too hard. In the end, Song Kaiji still stayed by his side. "Have you... told Aunt Zhang about my other world?"
Song Kaiji shook his head like a rattle, and almost pointed to the sky and swore: "If you tell me not to say it, I won't say a word."
"...Yeah." Shen Qing felt uncomfortable being stared at by him. He always felt that Song Kaiji would pounce on him and bite him in the next second. His burning gaze was about to burn him. But in his heart, he was very satisfied with Song Kaiji's obedience. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'll tell Aunt Zhang later... I'm planning to build a new house, and then our family will live together."
Shen Qing had never told Song Kaiji about his world and his past experiences before. Only now did he truly open his heart to Song Kaiji and start talking about his childhood, the hardships he had suffered, how he left the old Shen family, how he encountered wild boars in the mountains, and finally how he discovered the cave. Song Kaiji felt distressed and sad when he heard this.
"Maybe God has blessed me. He thought I was suffering so much that he gave me this adventure. I passed through that cave and met you."
Thinking of the day they first met, Song Kaiji couldn't help but sigh again. People should still do good things and have good intentions. If he hadn't helped, wouldn't such a big treasure have been missed? "So I am the first person you met in the end times? This must be a fate sent by God!"
Unexpectedly, Shen Qing was stunned after hearing this. He recalled carefully for a moment before saying, "...No."
"Ah?" Song Kaiji was very disappointed. When he saw Shen Qing, there was only Shen Qing and a zombie. How come he was not the first one?
"You're not the first person I've met here." The two talked for a long time, and were originally leaning against each other, but at this moment Shen Qing suddenly sat up straight, "Before you, I met two... three people. One turned into a zombie, the one you killed. One was eaten by zombies, and another ran away... He had seen me and would not be attacked by zombies."
Song Kaiji was stunned.
Shen Qing scratched his hair in annoyance. It had been so long and so many things had happened. Shen Qing just recalled that there was such a big hidden danger that had been buried long ago. He told Song Kaiji what happened at that time in detail: "That man was really not a good person. At first, he wanted me to kill the zombies, and the two of them ran away first. But I didn't dare to kill them, so I ran with them. He tripped me and I sprained my ankle. Then the zombies passed me and continued to chase them. He pushed the woman down again, and she was not as lucky as me. She was bitten to death by the zombies."
"That man's surname seemed to be Feng, and I still remember his appearance." Shen Qing bit his lip. If such a bad guy knew the secret that he would not be attacked by zombies, he might cause some trouble.
"It's been so long and nothing has happened. Maybe that person has died a long time ago." People die every day in the apocalypse. That person doesn't sound very powerful. He can only push others to block it. It's normal for him to die. Song Kaiji comforted Shen Qing, but Shen Qing didn't dare to let down his guard.
The base is so big, what if he just happened not to meet him before? He should be more careful in the future, show up less in front of outsiders, and observe the environment more. It would be better for him to find the other party first, so that the other party is in the light and he is in the dark, and it will be much easier to deal with it at that time.
"Then, you stay at home more, and I will run back and forth to exchange supplies." Song Kaiji said. He didn't have so many secrets, and he could teleport, so it would be more convenient for him to run away. "Even if you come here, stay at home more, go out less and see people, or wear a mask or something?"
Shen Qing thought about it, and there was no other way. Fortunately, he had other businesses in Anping County, and the workshop in Lantang Village had just started. Even if he didn't come to the end of the world, he wouldn't be "in the Lord". In fact, compared to when he first came to the end of the world, his whole image is very different, except that his long hair is not convenient to cut, and he still has a round little ball on his head. But Shen Qing is used to being cautious, and he is not afraid of ten thousand but afraid of one.
After deciding on this matter, the two talked about the property in Anping County: "... I bought a house in the county town, and there are several storefronts facing the street. I rented out three of them and kept one for my own business, selling fried starch sausage and roasted gluten. I opened a starch sausage workshop in the village. If I can't sell it in the county town, I will sell it here. I saw that Yu Le was timid just now, and she didn't dare to look up at me. I think she was afraid that she would be a burden and I couldn't tolerate her."
Shen Qing actually felt sorry for this little girl, and didn't mind having one more mouth to feed, but he couldn't take her for granted. It would be a good idea to find some work for Yu Le: "Then let her set up a stall to sell starch sausages, or see what other strengths she has."
Song Kaiji looked at Shen Qing with bright eyes, full of surprise. He actually didn't expect that Shen Qing, a native of ancient times, had grown to this level after only a few months of contact with modern civilization. Opening a shop or a workshop is obviously a common plot in some time-travel novels, but that is because the protagonist is a modern person with a modern soul, knowledge and vision.
Generally speaking, people cannot make money beyond their own cognition. Matter determines consciousness, and basic science determines imagination. Things that are very common to modern people may be incomprehensible and impossible for ancient people to do even if they rack their brains. However, Shen Qing did it, and without any direct help from modern people.
His Qingqing is so smart! It is hard to imagine what kind of outstanding person Shen Qing will grow into if he is exposed to systematic learning.
Song Kaiji patted his head and took out several mobile phones from the space. These mobile phones were found when they went to Yucai Middle School. Several of them had novels stored in them. Song Kaiji took out a time-travel novel and played it for Shen Qing to listen to through the audiobook: Shen Qing could not recognize all the words, but he could still listen.
After listening to the beginning, Shen Qing was deeply attracted. This story is about a modern girl who traveled to an ancient village and, with the help of the system, became a landlord and even received royal rewards. The beginning is about how the girl improved her life after traveling through time and space in a poor mud house.
Shen Qing commented as he listened: "Although the pig's offal is not expensive, the oil, sugar, and salt are not cheap. How can you make braised pork intestines?"
"Hey, I didn't expect this to happen..."
"This rascal is as disgusting as Wang Liuzi!"
"How do you make this wine? I want the recipe, too! We also have wild grapes in the mountain behind us. When the season comes, all the clusters are eaten by birds. What a pity!" Shen Qing's regretful expression was as if he had lost hundreds of taels of gold.
Song Kaiji watched Shen Qing's expression change from the side. Nothing could be more interesting than this: "My mother can also make this wine, but as you said, wild grapes are not expensive, but you need to add a lot of sugar, which is not mentioned in the book."
Shen Qing frowned and thought, counting on his fingers for a long time, then slapped his thigh and said, "That's a good deal!"
He had seen wine in the big restaurants in the county town, packed in beautiful glass bottles, and that small bottle alone cost dozens of taels of silver. How much was sugar? Although it was expensive, it was nothing compared to the wine.
Shen Qing was so interested that he didn't even care about Song Kaiji, holding his phone with relish. Whether this story was good or not was another matter, but the protagonist's business was really colorful, and with the help of the magical system, Shen Qing listened carefully and learned a lot in a short time.
Song Kaiji had been sneaking around next to him and taking advantage of him, but Shen Qing didn't notice. It was not until Tang's mother knocked on the door and asked them to come out for lunch that Shen Qing reluctantly put down his phone.
He and Song Kaiji came out of the room, and two rooms away was Tang Wenjie's room. Shen Qing hadn't seen Tang Wenjie since he came back this time, and he just thought that Song Kaiji had led people to go on missions day and night, and they were tired, so they slept in the room: they used the iron cage tactics to fight zombies, and Tang Wenjie was the hardest worker.
Unexpectedly, when he walked over, Tang Wenjie's door suddenly opened, and the sleepy Qi Zhan walked out.
Shen Qing:?
He and Qi Zhan stared at each other for a long time before turning to look at Song Kaiji in confusion: Qi Zhan, a rare healing psychic, was actually accepted into their team? Song Kaiji was so amazing!
However, Tang Wenjie rushed out of the room, his face red as if bleeding: "Boss, it's not what you think!"
