Mystic ancestor Shen Qi thought being able to relive life on earth was already happiness enough.
When Li Zijiu took her hand and said he wanted to stay by her side till the end of time, Shen...
Let's make a pinky promise!
A rooster crowed, jolting He Xuan awake. The two people next to him also sat up abruptly.
Because they were asleep, they didn't know when all three of them were in bed. They got up a bit too suddenly and almost kicked the person opposite them off the bed.
Upon closer inspection, Tian Hongtao realized that the people opposite him were He Xuan and Cang Ze, and quickly apologized, "Brother Xuan, I'm sorry!"
"Good morning, Brother Xuan!" Cang Ze rubbed his eyes.
"Okay! Let's get ready!" He Xuan was somewhat surprised.
The three of them are always very alert when they sleep, a skill honed over many years in the military. But yesterday they slept so soundly that they didn't even realize they were in bed.
After tidying up, and seeing that I didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere else, I quickly went downstairs.
Downstairs, Chen Qi was reading a newspaper, with a small backpack and a suitcase beside him.
"Good morning, Master!" He Xuan and the other two came over to greet him.
"Good morning!" Chen Qi finally looked up.
He Xuan's expression was somewhat complicated when he saw Tian Hongtao. He Xuan glanced at Tian Hongtao, and Cang Ze followed suit.
Tian Hongtao's heart clenched: "Why are you all looking at me like that? I didn't do anything!"
“Sir, he…” He Xuan knew, of course, that he hadn’t done anything. Knowing his impulsive nature, he had Cang Ze drive him here, but after the accident, he drove himself. They slept together last night, so nothing really happened.
Chen Qi raised his hand to stop him from asking: "We can talk about his matter another time. My name is Chen Qi, just call me by my name. There's no need to call me 'Great God,' it sounds weird!"
He Xuan frowned: "But that would be too disrespectful to you. How about calling me Master?"
"Is it hard to say your name?" Chen Qi thought her name was alright, not that unpleasant or frightening, right?
He Xuan said, "How about I call you Master when there are people around, and call you by your name when we're alone?"
"Whatever! Let's go, go out and say hello to the villagers. Oh, and settle yesterday's bill!" After saying that, he handed Tian Hongtao an electronic printout.
The electronic slip shows:
Kill the evil spirit, reward one million!
Accommodation fee: 200!
Below that are the transfer account, the bank name, and the recipient's name!
Tian Hongtao: "Master...aren't you called Chen Qi? This person receiving the payment is named Wang Dashan. Is he a family member?"
Chen Qi put down the newspaper, then picked up his backpack: "The village chief will distribute them to the villagers after we turn around. Let's go, let's have breakfast at the village chief's house first, then pick up the car and set off!"
"Pick up? Pick up the car? Isn't my car right at the door?" Tian Hongtao looked outside hard, and sure enough, the car was gone.
Chen Qi said, "Your tires are so flat, are you sure you don't want to get them fixed? I can talk to them and have them replace your lousy tires!"
"No, no, no, I was just joking. I'll pay for the repairs! The money has been transferred, please check!" Tian Hongtao immediately admitted defeat.
Someone else can change the tires for him; he'd have to be incredibly stupid to change them himself.
"Okay! Let's go!"
"Master, let me help you with your suitcase?" Tian Hongtao handed his backpack to Cang Ze and came over to offer his help.
Chen Qi glanced at him indifferently: "No need, you can't lift it!"
This is being looked down upon!
Tian Hongtao strode over, patted his chest, and waved his hand dismissively: "How could that be? Just a suitcase... that's all! What the hell is this? It's so heavy!"
Chen Qi: "Help me with this umbrella, but don't open it!"
Tian Hongtao: ...Okay!
