Chapter 235: Play and Boat Part 2
Chu Xiuyan finally had no choice but to sit down face to face with Zhang Chun, cross-legged, holding his chin, and asked casually: "What's wrong, uncle? You look like I'm dying."
"It's unlucky. Take it back."
"Pah, pah, pah."
Zhang Chun then returned to the topic, "I want to tell you something, calm down and listen to me."
Chu Xiuyan nodded obediently: "Yeah."
But at this point, Zhang Chun suddenly felt a dilemma. How could he say that it was possible that the one who was always helping the boy in secret, and even very likely to become his friend, was a part of [time and space]? He was spying in the dark, helping the boy without reason, so what price did he want to take from him in the end?
The most important thing is, does Yun Yan know that the unknown thing on his body is [time and space]?
Zhang Chun frowned more and more, carefully considering his tone, and said, "When we collided with the [Blood Mist], didn't I almost become a god? At that time, I actually saw the memory projection of [Earth]."
Chu Xiuyan continued to nod: "Yeah."
The system was taking notes like crazy, wondering if Zhang Chun had already set his sights on it. [Oh, this is information I didn't know about - is it some kind of mind communication? If other characters were as honest as Zhang Chun, I wouldn't have to make up stories when I draw comics.]
Zhang Chun continued to rack his brains to try to make the atmosphere less serious, and said: "When communicating with [Earth], He said that [Spacetime] was split in half by Him a long time ago, but it did not die completely, but disappeared. Do you remember what happened in the Desert Fortress? The second generation Desert God once said that the relationship between [Blood Mist] and [Spacetime] was very bad, but from our previous experience, the relationship between [Blood Mist] and [Spacetime] was extremely harmonious. In these countless retrospections, in addition to the possibility that their relationship has improved, another possibility is that the previous [Spacetime] is not the current [Spacetime] - at least not in [Earth's] impression."
Chu Xiuyan's eyes began to circle, but he still nodded obediently: "Yeah."
The system's writing began to slow down: [To summarize, Zhang Chun suspected that 'Time and Space' had changed people, uh, gods. ]
Chu Xiuyan continued: [Furthermore, uncle suspects you. ]
The system was shocked: [So you are here? Listen carefully! ]
Chu Xiuyan angrily retorted: [My neck? This thing on your neck is not just for show! ! ]
After getting angry, my mind starts to clear again, and in the eyes of others, I listen carefully - something I learned in school.
Zhang Chun's voice became increasingly low, and he was about to get to the point. "So, according to my guess, after [time and space] was split into two halves, one part was controlled by the doctor in the northwest, and the other half was in?..."
Just then? At this moment, a familiar cheerful voice sounded, interrupting Zhang Chun's words.
"Cloud Flame——"
A dark shadow flashed by the wooden boat floating slowly on the river, and the turbulent water hit the boat, causing it to shake violently.
Chu Xiuyan wiped the water drops on his cheek, and his eyes, which were filled with "Aba Aba", suddenly became sharp.
He stood up and saw the wooden boat sailing on the river ahead. There was a figure standing on the bow, with blue eyes that were particularly bright in the night, a provocative glow.
Zhang Chun only had time to stretch out one hand: "Yun Yan, wait..."
Before he could finish his words, the wooden boat suddenly rushed forward at a terrifying speed, and he lost his balance and fell onto the deck.
Holding two oars? The boy paddled frantically in the river, his movements almost leaving an afterimage, his dark eyes gradually turned red, "Damn water monster brother, you splashed water on my face, sink to the bottom of the river!"
Cui Zhiyong stood at the bow of the wooden boat in front, standing straight with a confident smile, "Yun Yan, I won't lose to you this time. This is my home court - I'll take first place in the rowing competition!"
Chu Xiuyan, who keenly heard the key words, said: "What? Rowing competition?! Where? Where to sign up - Forget it, the first place is mine, mine!!!"
"Water, obey my command..."
"Stones, smash the boat ahead!"
Zhang Chun watched the young man manipulate the gray mist to fetch rocks from the riverbed and throw them forward, cold sweat gradually appearing on his face, "Wait, Yunyan, if you damage the boat, you will have to pay for it, so just hit it accurately and knock the people down."
Chu Xiuyan: "Okay, uncle."
Cui Zhiyong: "Zhang Chun, you have changed! Water, listen to me, Pu——"
A stone? It hit him on the back of the head.
Chu Xiuyan threw stones excitedly, one after another, without any pause in between.
Zhang Chun held the oar and rowed the boat with an expressionless face.
Gradually, many passers-by gathered on the river bank to watch the fun.
After a while, Zai Zhe and his friends also came here.
"I know that there must be Yunyan in a busy place, and where there is Yunyan, there is a high probability that Zhang Chun can be found."
Zai Zhe walked to the shore leisurely, and saw countless rising waters emerging from the river like waterfalls, and the splashing water almost wet the clothes of passers-by.
Wu Gaoyuan, who was walking a little slower, dodged the splashing water in time and asked, "What's going on? A water splash waterfall show?"
He even stopped knitting.
Zai Zhe shrugged: "Who knows, maybe he's just joking."
When the lion boss finally got lost and got here, the waterfall on the river had disappeared, leaving only broken wood chips on the river and three heads floating in the water.
Boss Lion took a closer look and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, hahahaha, Zhang Chun, why are you in the river too, hahaha——"
Wan Mingxu, who had set up a fortune-telling stall on the river bank, was surrounded by people and could not see what was happening in the river, so he prepared to look for a replacement.
Xuanwu had already smashed the game console secretly because he couldn't beat the last level.
When Chu Xiuyan was gurgling and blowing bubbles in the river, a boat quietly came on the river, calm and silent, with only its shadow revealing its presence.
It was Chu Li who was always following behind. By the way, he also signed up for the rowing competition.
Chu Xiuyan happily climbed onto Chu Li's boat.
Cui Zhiyong felt like his soul was about to leave his body, but when he was fished out, it was still there. He muttered to himself, "Is there still a head on my neck?"
As for Zhang Chun, he is thinking whether now is the time to continue the previous topic.
As soon as Chu Xiuyan saw the expression on Zhang Chun's face, he guessed what he wanted to say, so he replied casually: "Don't worry, uncle, I know what you mean, but even if the other half of [Time and Space] is on me, it's not a big deal, because... it's a retard!"
System: [Are you cursing me in a roundabout way? And you have to add the word artificial. Even if it is mentally retarded, it is artificial mental retarded! It is the fault of the human who created me——]
And Zhang Chun...he fell into deep thought.
Cui Zhiyong was alert: "Wait, what time and space are you in? On you? Aren't you the other half of the blood mist?"
Chu Xiuyan: "Don't worry, I am the Son of God?"
Cui Zhiyong: "Zi? Your head."
Chu Li slowly sat on the small bench on the bed, sipping tea and watching the river at night. He also used the silk thread that fell to the bottom of the river to control the boat to move forward.
Before Zhang Chun could finish his thoughts, a few more people suddenly jumped onto a wooden boat slightly closer to the shore.
It was Zai Zhe and Wu Gaoyuan who were watching the fun, carrying a flag with “Half-immortal on earth” written on it? Wan Mingxu who had a sullen face for some reason, and Xuan Wu who was further away picking up a game console with a broken screen and shouting “Yun Yan, come and help me pass the level”.
Zhang Chun frowned and said, "Don't jump in. This boat can't hold so many people."
Zai Zhe snapped his fingers, and the three wet people were instantly dry.
Chu Xiuyan clapped his hands.
Zhang Chun knew that he couldn't stop it, so he sat back on the deck helplessly. The sigh he had just let out had not yet ended when he saw another person not far away carrying an iron pot as big as a washbasin rushing in, splashing chili oil onto everyone present - except Chu Li, who stood up at lightning speed and successfully avoided it.
Zhang Chun wiped the red oil off his face and said slowly: "...Get out, Jing Heng."
Chu Xiuyan excitedly took out a pair of chopsticks from Boss Lion's pocket? "Hot pot, hot pot! Boss Lion, don't worry, I'll take back what you just said on your behalf!"
As soon as the lion boss put the iron basin on the bed, he and the black-haired boy clapped their hands, "Great!"
He added: "The food in the pot? It should be cooked through. I specially ordered it in advance."
Cui Zhiyong had just picked up a piece of meat when Chu Xiuyan snatched it away, "Is there any fish in the river? Water, obey my orders, poof—"
He bit his tongue.
Zai Zhe took a cup of Chu Li's tea and said, "Night fishing is also good, it's fresh."
Wu Gaoyuan: "It's a pity there's no wine."
Zhang Chun: "Drinking is prohibited."
Chu Xiuyan had food in his mouth and mumbled, "Guaji Guaji, Gulu Gulu." (This is how you go here, first press xx and then click xxx)
He was playing games with Xuan Wu. Although the operation was not very sensitive due to the cracked screen, he gradually became proficient after playing a few games.
It was a moonlit night with a fresh breeze. The lanterns on the shore were bright and warm, and even the breeze seemed extremely gentle. However, there were too many people on the wooden boat, and they almost quarreled while eating hotpot. It was too noisy.
Zhang Chun thought that he had not been able to find a suitable opportunity to continue the previous topic with Yun Yan, but Yun Yan was indeed smart and guessed what he wanted to say directly, but the response he gave was a little unexpected.
Even if [Time and Space] is on him, he is still a fool... This probably means that he is damaged. After all, he was severely damaged by [Earth], so his strength is very weak, and even his soul has become fragile.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chun couldn't help but sigh, and then the meat in the bowl he was holding was secretly taken away. It was the black-haired boy he was talking about at the moment.
If he guessed correctly, Yun Yan seemed to always be lurking in the half of [Time and Space] in him, treating it as a friend, companion, or family member who had been with him until now.
Just like everyone on this ship.
…
Zhang Chun was caught by the wooden boat owner and demanded compensation.
Chu Xiuyan: "Was it Cui Zhiyong who provoked first?"
Cui Zhiyong: "It was Yunyan who destroyed the boat."
A group of acquaintances who were watching the excitement: “Hahahahahaha!”
Zhang Chun: "Shut up."
…
The system sneezed.
How strange, it thought, the little metal ball that it had sent back to the modern world before hadn't finished checking the situation and returned yet?
Wait, could it be that the energy ran out in the middle and the time-space tunnel tore it apart? !
My poor little detector—
**
The modern world.
The small detector - the metal ball closed its eyes peacefully. A man who was marked as a high-risk red person by the main system picked it up, so he pretended to be a dead object and decided to close his eyes and pretend to be dead no matter what the other party said next.
But to its surprise, Chu Wenxi said nothing except the initial sentence "imaginary friend". He just turned the metal ball in his palm like a walnut, and then stuffed it directly into his trouser pocket. Then he walked to the bedside, felt the boy's heartbeat was normal, and got up and walked out the door.
He closed the bedroom door and saw the young man standing at the entrance.
He wore a white shirt and white pants, as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder. Apart from his hair, there was no other color on his body - except for his skin.
Chu Wenxi walked towards the entrance, and directly treated the young man at the door as if he didn't exist. He didn't say a word the whole time. Until he closed the door and locked it again, the young man who had also remained silent the whole time suddenly chuckled and said, "Can you add a contact number, sir?"
Like chatting up someone. Shrinking? Chu Wenxi thought secretly about the little metal ball in his trouser pocket.
Chu Wenxi's expression didn't change at all. He walked towards the elevator indifferently without looking back, "Go ask your brother, but I won't include you. And? You are not allowed to enter his house."
The young man turned his head to look at the door next to him. Behind this door, there is a young man who is sleeping, or immersed in the adventure of another world.
"You're going to need me."
The young man smiled and "watched" Chu Wenxi's figure disappear at the corner. His low voice gradually became indifferent and gentle. It was the tone he was most familiar with.
"PhD."
