Chapter 127 Chapter 127

The autumn wind was bleak, and Luo Shizhen spent his twentieth birthday at school.

Chu Xiao and the others had been waiting for this day for a long time. They saved up their vacation time early and came back early to accompany Luo Shizhen in training for a week at school so that they could celebrate his birthday.

It was helpless to say, Luo Shizhen was recuperating alone in school, and all the members of the small team rushed back just to spend more time with him.

Although Lin Ke joined later, he believed that his care for Luo Shizhen was no less than that of his other teammates.

Naturally, I followed.

But he never expected that this was how he would accompany Luo Shizhen.

Three meters tall and built like tanks, battlefield robots carrying all kinds of heavy weapons are lined up in a row. Although they are extremely bulky, their movements are quite flexible and smooth. They move around and constantly change positions, firing weapons at the fleeing people.

Lin Ke flipped on the spot in a somewhat awkward manner, barely avoiding an attack. Just as he stood firm, another attack came. He could only do a backflip and use the force that was stagnant in mid-air to avoid it.

The third shot had already followed, and he had no time to dodge. He could only adjust his body to a state that minimized the intensity of the attack.

Luo Shizhen, who was standing next to him, pulled him over.

There was no need to even look, he just swung his sword back and successfully cut off the robot's attack muzzle.

The massive robot paused, its red light turning green.

"Eighteen attack arms are disconnected, and the simulated combat training has been passed."

Lin Ke sat down on the ground, gasping for breath:

"It's finally over. It can run so fast."

He looked at the person who was also slumped beside him and fanned Luo Shizhen with his hand:

"Shi Zhen, is this how you recuperate? This isn't a vacation, it's basically devilish training. It's even more brutal than Captain Wen's training of me."

Luo Shizhen wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was obviously the one who trained the hardest, but when he smiled, he looked like nothing had happened, even a little silly.

"I still need to improve my physical strength, so I train like this every day. You don't have to accompany me, it's the same if you just rest beside me."

Although Lin Ke complained of being tired, he shook his head when he saw that the other members of the team had just finished a battle.

"No, I'd better come along."

He is a coward, but as a human being, he still has some ambition. Since he is already a member of a team, how can he be the only one resting while his teammates are training?

"But Shi Zhen, today is your birthday, I thought you would reward yourself."

Like, take a day off or something.

Luo Shizhen chuckled: "Yes, I rewarded myself by doubling the intensity of my training today."

Lin Ke: "...is this how you reward yourself?"

He was incredulous: "Doubling the training can be called a reward?"

He was so shocked that he didn't even feel as much pain in his body.

Luo Shizhen found Lin Ke's reaction strange: "Of course it's a reward."

"These exercises are good for my body. If I double the training, the benefits will also be doubled."

Lin Ke was unable to refute for a moment.

How do you say this?

It seems that everyone knows that exercise is good for the body, but many people just want to lie in bed or on the sofa every day, watching TV series and browsing their phones, eating all kinds of junk food, drinking ice cola, and being a carefree and non-exercise person.

Because exercise is very hard and makes people want to escape.

But Luo Shizhen never thought of escaping. He simply thought that exercise was good for him, so he exercised. As for the hardship and fatigue encountered during training, he was able to take it all on with a calm mind.

Lin Ke could only say: "You are really born to do this job."

Luo Shizhen's straightforward thinking would probably put him at a disadvantage whether in school or in society.

But it is just right to put it in the Guardian.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard someone shouting in front.

"Shi Zhen."

Luo Shizhen looked up and saw a young man walking towards him with a bouquet of roses.

The young man was not wearing combat uniform, but was obviously dressed up carefully. Judging from his appearance, he was also a handsome type, a bit of a sunny and warm guy. He was looking at Luo Shizhen with a smile that was a bit expectant and shy.

"Happy birthday."

Lin Ke also saw it, but he was not surprised at all, and even showed an expression of "here it comes again".

Compared to Lin Ke's calmness, Chu Xiao, Xiao Shan, Lu Qiujin and others were not so calm.

They were like wild beasts that sensed a threat. Those who were originally sitting on the ground in groups of three or four now either stood up calmly or turned around and looked at the people approaching.

Lin Ke was not surprised at all. After all, this scene had been repeated three or five times today.

I guess this handsome young man will have to leave the stage with regret next.

Sure enough, after Luo Shizhen walked over and talked to the other party for a few words, the handsome young awakener showed a sad look on his face, but he still insisted on handing the rose to him before leaving, looking back every few steps.

Luo Shizhen came back with the flowers, and he fiddled with the petals a few times with some interest, then looked at Lin Ke happily:

"He's such a nice guy. I only treated him once, but he actually took time off on my birthday to come and wish me a happy birthday. Look, he even gave me flowers."

Lin Ke looked at the clueless young Purifier and asked, "Besides sending flowers, did he say anything else?"

"He asked me if I was free and wanted to invite me out for dinner. I said no, I had to train. Then he said he could pick a time when I was free. I said I was not free every day."

Lin Ke: Okay, another young boy’s heart is broken.

In his opinion, what Luo Shizhen said was the truth, but in the eyes of the young awakener, it was probably rejected without hesitation.

He looked at Luo Shizhen, then at the bouquets of flowers and boxes of chocolates placed under the tree:

"Shi Zhen, you can definitely open a flower shop."

Luo Shizhen was also very confused as to why everyone who came to wish him a happy birthday would send him flowers, and they were mostly roses.

However, he was still very happy that others were willing to give him gifts and come to wish him a happy birthday.

“I feel like I’m becoming more and more popular.”

He happily shared with Lin Ke: "Everyone is very friendly to me."

Lin Ke thought that being this slow was indeed a talent.

However, these suitors must have vaguely sensed something, and none of them dared to express their pursuit directly. They probably all thought that even if they failed, there was still a chance to turn things around.

Lin Ke himself is a straight man. In his opinion, Luo Shizhen does have a very attractive personality, good looks, and a good figure.

But it’s not to the extent that seven or eight people confessed their love to each other in less than half a day, right?

With such a confused feeling, he subconsciously looked at the young man in front of him.

As I watched, I was stunned.

When we first met, Luo Shizhen still had a slightly childish look on his face, and you could tell at a glance that he was a student.

Sometimes he would show timidity, which was an instinctive reaction to his lack of confidence in his abilities. When he was praised, he always smiled foolishly, looking like a simple and handsome boy.

It is as green as an unripe apple, and you can see through it at a glance.

Now.

You can still see the bottom at a glance.

However, perhaps because of some experiences, or perhaps because the Qi body is improving the human body, or perhaps because it has really grown up, it looks very different from before.

His eyebrows and eyes were fully revealed, his bright eyes were slightly curved in a smile, and his face was fair with a healthy glow.

Because he was wearing a short training suit, his beautiful chest and abdominal muscles rose and fell slightly with Luo Shizhen's breathing, and combined with his warm and bright eyes, it was simply a sure kill.

Lin Ke used to work in the beauty industry and had come into contact with many handsome men and beautiful women. He knew very well that no matter how good-looking a person was, their beauty would be diminished a little when they were in a mess after exercise.

But Luo Shizhen had obviously just finished double training, and there was some dirt on his disheveled face, and he looked like he had just been pulled out of a sweat.

But he actually! Even better looking!

There's even a certain charm to it in battle, the image of a resolute yet friendly guardian emerging from the outside.

Lin Ke couldn't help but think that Luo Shizhen should have been invited to go when the official filming of the Guardian announcement film took place.

Even though he was a straight man, his heart beat faster when Luo Shizhen faced him with a smile.

This young Purifier now looks like a beautiful ripe apple, fully displaying its bright and attractive color.

The facial features are still the same, but they look much more beautiful than before, like a beautiful jade wrapped in stone, which has unknowingly shed its plain shell to reveal the brilliance underneath.

People who are attracted to him can't help but keep their eyes on him.

"Damn, when did you become so good-looking?!"

Lin Ke took a deep breath, quickly looked away, took out his mobile phone, and searched for pictures of beautiful women on the Internet to brainwash himself.

He is a straight man, a staunch straight man.

Luo Shizhen touched his face:

"Have I become more beautiful? No, haven't I always been like this?"

A hand pinched his face, Luo Shizhen looked up and saw it was Chu Xiao.

Chu Xiao looked at him with a smile: "It really looks better. It may be that after entering the seventh level, the Qi body is improving the body."

He had discovered it a long time ago.

When I came back a few days ago and saw Luo Shizhen for the first time, I was completely amazed.

Therefore, we are more vigilant.

It is easy to imagine that as Luo Shizhen becomes more and more outstanding, there will be more and more wolves surrounding him.

In particular, the most feared wolf has returned home.

Thinking of the man surnamed Fu, Chu Xiao's eyes turned slightly cold, but when he looked at Luo Shizhen, he quickly covered them up and slightly raised the corners of his lips.

Luo Shizhen was somewhat happy after hearing this, but he touched his face and felt a little disappointed.

"It's a pity the teacher isn't here."

He wanted the teacher to see what he looks like now, and the teacher would definitely praise him.

Just as I was thinking about the teacher, another voice came.

"Luo Shizhen."

When Lin Ke heard the sound, all his bones began to ache. He subconsciously stood up and took a standard military posture.

Like a crowing rooster, shout loudly: "Hello, Team Wen!!"

The clerk was speechless by his reaction and nodded: "Hello."

He turned to look at Luo Shizhen with a complicated expression.

Wenshu has been here for a while. He knew before that Luo Shizhen was not a true auxiliary system, and he also exercised frequently when he was in the strange field.

But watching this young man training himself to death as if he was risking his life, trying his best time and time again, falling down and quickly getting up again, and the determined look on his face when fighting against the training robot, I was unknowingly mesmerized.

Then, there was a guy who was obviously a suitor, holding flowers and presenting them to Luo Shizhen.

Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, it was obvious that Luo Shizhen rejected him.

Afterwards, he slowly approached and just heard Luo Shizhen say those words sadly, obviously missing Chen Heyan.

The clerk's mood suddenly became more complicated.

Chen Heyan just left, so it's normal that this young man can't get out.

As a friend of Chen Heyan, he felt happy for Chen Heyan, but at the same time he felt that it was impossible for such a young man in the prime of his life to spend his whole life guarding a dead person.

For example, at this moment, Luo Shizhen is celebrating his birthday, and Chen Heyan cannot be with him. How can he not feel sad and lonely?

"Team Wen."

Luo Shizhen ran over happily.

Ever since he knew that the clerk and the teacher were friends, his favorable impression of Captain Wen, whom he was not very familiar with, increased dramatically.

This is the teacher's good friend.

"Why are you here?"

The young man's joy was almost written on his face, and the clerk couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.

Chen and Yan clearly asked him to take care of someone, but he was always assigned tasks and had no time for vacation at all.

Today is Luo Shizhen's birthday. He squeezed out a day off and rushed here.

"It's your birthday, I'm here to celebrate for you."

Luo Shizhen nodded happily: "Thank you, Captain Wen, then let's have cake together tonight?"

Seeing him welcome him like this, the things that the clerk had been struggling with suddenly became clear.

Yes, Chen Heyan is gone.

But he can accompany and take care of Luo Shizhen on behalf of his good friend, helping him relieve his loneliness and emotions.

He forced a smile, somewhat unskillfully: "Are you... okay now?"

As the clerk spoke, he carefully looked at Luo Shizhen's expression. Although he had a healthy and rosy complexion, he could see that he looked a little haggard.

"If you want to talk, you can find me. I'm always here."

Luo Shizhen looked at the clerk and found a hint of sadness between his brows.

Team Leader Wen is sad for the teacher, right?

But the principal's affairs must be kept confidential. Telling him was already an exception, and he could not tell anyone else.

Luo Shizhen felt a little guilty. He knew that his teacher would come back one day, but he still hid it from his teacher's good friend.

Captain Wen must be very sad now.

The young Purifier stepped forward and gave the clerk a gentle hug.

"Captain Wen, you too, if you have anything to say, you can come to me."

In order to train well, he basically doesn't chat with anyone during this period, but this is the teacher's good friend.

The soft and elastic touch was directly fed back to the brain, and the clerk's body stiffened.

He never liked being close to people, and this was the first time he was hugged by someone.

It feels... actually pretty good.

"Shi Zhen."

Not far away, a voice with a faint smile called out.

Luo Shizhen, who was trying to comfort the clerk, subconsciously let go of his hand and looked back.

The clerk's outstretched arms moved slightly, as if he instinctively wanted to pull the person back, but in the end he let him go.

Luo Shizhen turned his head and saw a young man sitting in a wheelchair, smiling at him.

He was stunned.

"Fu Liying?"

Isn’t this the friend who asked him to go abroad with him, but became inexplicably angry and then broke up with him after he refused?

Luo Shizhen didn't hold a grudge and became happy: "You're back?"

The young man looked at him intently with smiling eyes, as if the document did not exist, and answered softly and gently:

"Yes, I'm finally back."

After he finished answering, he looked at the clerk calmly: "Who is this?"

The clerk was keenly aware of his gaze and took a step forward: "Clerk, Luo Shi is really..."

He then realized that he had no identity at all.

Under Fu Liying's half-smile, seemingly seeing-through eyes, the clerk raised an eyebrow:

"But, you are Mr. Fu from Country X, right? What is your relationship with Shi Zhen?"

Luo Shizhen responded positively: "He was my former high school classmate!"

The clerk laughed: "So it's just a [classmate]."

Chu Xiao had already walked over and stood beside Luo Shizhen, helping him tidy up his messy clothes. They leaned their shoulders against each other and looked at the person in the wheelchair.

"Fu Liying, long time no see."

Fu Liying was able to maintain a calm face when facing the documents, but after seeing Chu Xiao, his eyes gradually turned cold.

He laughed, as if sarcastically: "It's been a long time, Chu Xiao."

"Are you still good friends with Shi Zhen?"

Chu Xiao had no expression on his face.

Luo Shizhen replied happily: "Yes, we are still good friends."

"Oh~"

Fu Liying glanced at Chu Xiao and smiled, "That's great! I envy you so much. You've been good friends for over a decade. I'm sure you'll always be good friends."

Chu Xiao said calmly: "Yeah, I don't know how many people have been friends for a while, but broke up halfway. Not everyone can be like me and Shi Zhen, who have been together every day for more than ten years."

"That's right."

He seemed to suddenly remember something: "I remember that before you went abroad, for some reason, you had a bad argument with Shi Zhen and even blocked him."

Chu Xiao had a blank expression on his face, but every word he said was heartbreaking: "Shi Zhen was very sad at the time, but fortunately, he doesn't care at all now, right, Shi Zhen?"

This sounded like asking Luo Shizhen to express his goodwill, so Luo Shizhen nodded.

"Yeah, I don't remember that anymore."

Fu Liying's eyes froze, and he lowered his head sadly:

"I was wrong to do this, but it was actually my parents who did it. They thought I didn't want to leave school because I couldn't bear to leave my friends, so they blocked you on my phone."

"I desperately tried to get the phone back, but they beat me up. I had to go on a hunger strike for three days before I got it back. When I got it back and opened it, I found that my account had been deleted."

He lowered his head slightly and only raised his eyes, because he had to look up at Luo Shizhen while sitting in a wheelchair. At this moment, he looked very pitiful.

"Later, I tried to contact you, but there was no response when I applied to add you as a friend, and the phone call was unreachable. Shi Zhen, are you blaming me? I'm sorry, it really wasn't me who did it."

Luo Shizhen immediately felt embarrassed.

In fact, when he was blocked, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because Fu Liying was too clingy at that time and disturbed his studies.

Fu Liying would be with him no matter what he did, even following him to the toilet.

So when Chu Xiao suggested changing his number, Luo Shizhen immediately agreed.

Looking at Fu Liying again, he was looking at him expectantly.

Chu Xiao noticed the guilty and remorseful look on his face and slowly clenched his fists.

The clerk looked at Chu Xiao, then at Fu Liying, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Above, strands of intertwined spiritual power enveloped the entire school.

A strand of fluff, almost too thin to be seen, slowly floated down from the sky.

But it was blocked by mental power.

The fluff can only stay in the air temporarily, which is enough for it to transmit the image below.

In the forest far away from the school, the charming man with nine tails swaying behind him shuddered all over.

He automatically ignored the men surrounding Luo Shizhen and only stared at the figure standing upright, his tail almost shaking with excitement, leaving an afterimage.

"Brother, I found you."
