Chapter 55 Chapter 55 He is the worst village chief.
Lu Xiao was stunned.
Even he didn't expect that Qin Zhou would be the village chief who raised his father.
But soon, he reacted and looked at his uncle Wen.
It has to be his Uncle Wen.
The most he did was sleep with his father's apprentice, unlike Uncle Wen, who was... ahem, low-key.
Wen Jue: “…”
Didn’t this kid get enough beating last time?
As their eyes met, Lu Qi on the other side had already begun to apologize.
"I asked Lu Yi to get the fertility pill for me. Village chief, if you want to punish me, punish me."
"We'll talk about this later." Qin Zhou said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. What are you going to do with these things?"
He was talking about the bodies.
"Cut open their Qi Sea, take out their Nascent Soul and drain it, then you can release their souls. It won't delay them from becoming heroes again in eighteen years." Wen Jue replied.
There was a ball of spiritual energy floating around him, all of which was obtained by draining the spiritual palaces of those righteous Yuanying cultivators. He had other uses.
After dealing with these, Wen Jue said, "Lu Qi, Lu Xiao, go collect the other corpses in this secret realm. Xiao Baiyi should also go and help."
"And you?"
"I'm going to get something from someone's warehouse." Wen Jue glanced at Qin Zhou.
Qin Zhou smiled, "I'm not in a hurry."
"I'm anxious!" Wen Jue said angrily, "I didn't cheat you of anything."
Qin Zhou: "Okay then. I'll go with you?"
"what ever."
Qin Zhou looked helpless.
Seeing this, Lu Qi pulled Lu Xiao over with one hand and Xiao Baiyi over with the other, "Then Village Chief, we'll leave first. I'll bring Lu Xiao to visit you in person next time."
"Goodbye, Village Chief!" Xiao Yibai said.
"good."
Lu Xiao became cheerful after he figured it out, "Grandpa, I'll come again next time!"
Even Qin Zhou was stunned by the word "grandfather". He nodded: "...Okay."
So, the troops were divided into two groups, each going one way.
Qin Zhou and Wen Jue could vaguely hear Lu Xiao's voice coming -
"Dad, what should I call Uncle Wen from now on? Let's talk about our own affairs, or should we talk according to my grandfather's seniority..."
Lu Qi was speechless: "You haven't even started yet, shut up first!"
Haven’t you even started yet?
Qin Zhou thought that what Lu Qi said was indeed correct.
Wen Jue took Qin Zhou out of the secret realm.
He didn't say a word along the way, just walked with his head down. He didn't walk too fast, just the speed that Qin Zhou, a young cultivator in the Jindan stage, could keep up with.
Qin Zhou thought that the warehouse should not be too far away, otherwise Wen Jue would not have walked there.
As expected, even Qin Zhou was somewhat familiar with that place——
Not far from the Realm City, on the same road they came from the Netherworld, even near the portal.
But Qin Zhou couldn't see it at that time, but now, Wen Jue waved his hand, and a staircase leading directly to the clouds appeared under their feet.
Qin Zhou was also familiar with the things hidden in the clouds.
A huge barrier stone.
The stone that acts as a barrier separating the upper and lower worlds.
No matter how many times he saw it, Qin Zhou would always take a few more glances at the barrier stone.
Wen Jue took him upstairs.
As he approached the barrier stone, the majestic surging spiritual energy rushed towards his face, making it difficult for Qin Zhou to breathe for a moment.
The barrier stone was huge, and from such a close distance it looked at least as tall as two adult men.
"You are the master of the barrier." Qin Zhou thought, it was not unexpected. The only one who could weave such a large barrier stone was probably Wen Jue.
"It's not me. I weaved the barrier, but the one who gave it the power was Tiandao."
"The spiritual energy can no longer hold up. That's why the upper and lower realms were separated. The way of heaven is to protect mortals and to curb their growth. If there are more cultivators in the immortal world, the spiritual energy will be consumed faster and faster. Sooner or later, this place will disappear."
"So, in order to maintain this barrier, every thousand years, you will use the secret realm treasure as a gimmick to lure greedy cultivators into the secret realm. Those who die will be regarded as reducing the burden on the world?" Qin Zhou continued. Including the two of them being called demons... is this also the reason?
"Reducing the burden..." Wen Jue pondered, as if he was carefully understanding the two words, and then he shook his head, "It's not entirely about reducing the burden. In order to maintain the barrier between the upper and lower worlds, a large amount of spiritual energy is needed. It can be considered killing two birds with one stone."
As he spoke, Wen Jue took out the aura ball that was filled with spiritual energy. The aura ball slowly floated up and drifted towards the barrier stone, and finally, completely merged into it.
"This barrier is a deal between me and Tiandao." Wen Jue lightly tapped his hand, and a portal opened on one side of the three-edged barrier stone. "Tiandao wants to linger on, and I don't want to see it disappear."
Wen Jue said this and walked straight into the barrier.
Qin Zhou followed him in silence.
It turns out that there is an independent space inside the barrier stone.
It's night here, starry even.
"No one can come in here except me." Wen Jue said, "The warehouse is right there. Everything is still there. I will borrow it occasionally and return it after use."
"You can count them at will. Over the years, the only thing missing is probably a fertility pill. But I think it's not a loss for you to exchange a fertility pill for a grandson."
He didn't even need to take Qin Zhou to get it. The warehouse box was placed in that corner and could be seen at a glance.
"Okay." Qin Zhou knew that the warehouse would not be lost in Wen Jue's hands.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wen Jue pursed his lips and said, "Go get it."
"What's the hurry?" Qin Zhou sat down casually, looked at the starry sky, then turned his head and stared at Wen Jue, "Rather than the warehouse, I would like to hear you call me village chief first."
He patted the seat beside him and asked Wen Jue to sit down as well.
Wen Jue can be disobedient, but Lu Yi cannot.
No matter how reluctant Wen Jue was, he had no choice but to move over.
Between him and Qin Zhou, they were first villagers and village chief, and then other things.
Wen Jue sat down as he was told. Seeing Qin Zhou's calm expression, he knew that this man probably knew who he was a long time ago.
"When did you know it was mine?" Wen Jue had mixed emotions, "I don't think I've revealed any flaws... right?" When he said the last word, Wen Jue became a little unconfident.
Next to him, he looked like a well-behaved kid. This was very different from the previous scene in the yellow sand, where he could kill people with just a wave of his hand.
Qin Zhou looked at it and said, "It wasn't too early to be sure. Everything has its traces, and I always had doubts in my heart. But later you tested me and asked me for candied haws, and then I was almost sure."
"So early?" Wen Jue was also surprised. Asking for candied haws, wasn't it the time when Qin Zhou touched his face and he left in anger, and they met again in the underworld?
"Then how long do you think it will take me to recognize you?"
He was wearing the hairpin he had given him, had a face that was stunningly beautiful just by touching it, ate fifth-level pills as if they were candy beans... The way he spoke and his temperament were all a bit like he used to be.
It's hard not to recognize.
Wen Jue turned his face away and refused to admit that he was a little happy in his heart.
etc.
so……
"Have you been making fun of me since then?" Wen Jue suddenly realized something.
When he asked him for candied haws, did Qin Zhou reply, "Didn't your father tell you that eating too much candy will damage your teeth?"
Qin Zhou: “…No.”
Wen Jue:?
Why is he a little unconvinced?
Qin Zhou was helpless. "Don't you want to recognize me? I was the village chief thousands of years ago. You may not necessarily want to recognize me."
Wen Jue was surprised: "Why don't I want to admit it?"
He was just afraid of admitting his mistake.
"I made a mistake." Qin Zhou chuckled, "Lu Yi wanted to see me."
"How could anyone say that?" He actually heard the word "Lu Yi" from this person's mouth one day.
"So, is it time to lock me up? It's good to lock me up, then I don't have to be jealous of Yinhe anymore." Qin Zhou's voice was slightly smiling.
Wen Jue was stunned.
This sounds familiar.
etc--
Just now in the secret realm, he was talking to himself...
After a moment of silence, Wen Jue's entire face turned red.
Suddenly, Wen Jue stood up, turned around and left.
Qin Zhou grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to hell." Wen Jue looked up at the sky, feeling hopeless.
Qin Zhou exerted a little force, and Wen Jue fell back with almost no resistance.
Just as he was about to fall on Qin Zhou, Wen Jue reacted extremely quickly and twisted his body, barely supporting himself on the ground with his hands. He knelt on both sides of Qin Zhou with his legs, just enough to trap Qin Zhou in the middle.
From a distance, it looked like he was sitting astride Qin Zhou.
He stared at Qin Zhou in surprise, as if asking, what are you doing?
Qin Zhou couldn't see his face, but he was satisfied with his current posture.
Qin Zhou put his hands on his hips and pressed them, and Wen Jue sat firmly on his legs.
"It's okay to lock him up." Qin Zhou said.
Even if he doesn't turn it off, he wants to turn it off.
Wen Jue was sure that Qin Zhou was not joking at all.
But he was shocked in his heart.
Is this his village chief?
Is this the old man he imagined? Although he didn't really think of Qin Zhou as an old man, this scene never appeared in Wen Jue's dream, not even for a second.
Now that he could see that face and understand that seriousness, Wen Jue's heart beat faster.
He...had no idea that this person was actually so...
He swallowed and felt a little excited.
"Once I lock you up... I won't let you escape. If you try to run, I will break your legs." Wen Jue displayed his devilish majesty, put his slender hands in front of Qin Zhou's neck, trying to intimidate him.
"Yeah." Qin Zhou held his wrist in front of his chest, and Wen Jue's wide sleeves slid down. The skin in his palm was very delicate, and he rubbed it gently with his fingertips, his eyes dark.
Wen Jue: “…”
"I, I'll go get you the warehouse." Wen Jue panicked. How could this person be so...
Wen Jue wanted to run, but Qin Zhou held his waist down.
Qin Zhou: "Don't move. Let me see."
What are you looking at? Before Wen Jue could even utter his doubts, Qin Zhou had already put his hands on his face.
"Look at my Lu Yi, is he still the same as I remember him?"
Alarm bells went off in Wen Jue's mind. He hadn't had a partner in nearly ten thousand years, and he had never had such an intimate behavior with anyone.
But there seemed to be another voice in my head saying -
But he said, my Lu Yi.
Wen Jue raised his chin, his eyes slightly red, "You have touched this face before..."
"Um."
"So, why can't I see it?" Qin Zhou pressed his fingers on Wen Jue's lower lip.
Wen Jue supported his fair neck, his throat rolling slightly——
"Because, those who abandon me will never see my true face."
After these words were spoken, Qin Zhou paused and looked at Wen Jue, but he turned his head away like a sulky child.
"No." Qin Zhou gently stroked the corner of his lips. "I didn't abandon you."
He wanted to come back, but... he couldn't.
After finishing the exam, the first thing he did was to go home and turn on his computer, but the notification that the game had been shut down made his breathing stop.
Later, he graduated with honors and wrote countless colorful game worlds with code, but he still couldn't play them for another eight years.
Perhaps it is because even a more exciting game world cannot replicate the lively people in the village.
"You said no, so it's gone?" Wen Jue was a little annoyed. He grabbed Qin Zhou's collar and said, "I even thought that I had done something wrong! So... you would..."
"That's why you sent me to the Cang Yun Sword Sect and then disappeared." His voice gradually became lower and even had a tearful tone.
The grievances he suffered are not necessarily less than those of Xiao Yibai.
"Why give someone a hairpin as a gift? Do you know what a hairpin means? How dare someone who gave someone a hairpin suddenly disappear?" Wen Jue was so angry that he leaned over and bit Qin Zhou's neck.
He was like a little beast, his shoulders trembling, ferocious and embarrassed.
Qin Zhou leaned back slightly and let him bite, without even frowning, and even agreed--
"Yeah. I'm the worst village chief."
