Chapter 723 Changes in the Wishing Wall
After clearing the table, Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang went to rest.
There were two beds that could still be used. One was given to Yu Shuhong and Mu Xuezhi, while they and Qier squeezed on the other.
Qi'er had been asleep for a long time, but he vaguely felt Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang coming over. He happily crawled between them and hugged Yu Cang's arm tightly.
Seeing this, Gu Jieshuang patted her red face and snuggled into the quilt next to Qi'er.
Hmm... Come to think of it, although I've been to the boss's card-making room many times and have stayed overnight here, this is the first time I've slept in the boss's own bed...
It’s just a pity.
Gu Jieshuang pouted as she buried her little head in the quilt.
After the capital, I haven't been intimate with my boss for a long time... Seeing that my boss is going to be busy again, I guess there won't be a chance for a long time.
This might be the only chance these days, but since my uncle, aunt and Qi'er are all here, it's really not easy to eat secretly.
Gu Jieshuang sighed in his heart.
Forget it, forget it. I'll wait until the boss finishes these important things and then stick with him.
Thinking of this, Gu Jieshuang fell into a deep sleep.
On the side, Yu Cang smiled gently and turned off the lights in the room.
…
Yu Cang hadn't had such a good sleep for a long time.
His family members are all by his side, no one is missing, so he doesn't have to worry about waking up tomorrow morning and finding himself the only one in the huge store.
This atmosphere made him feel very safe and allowed him to put aside all his worries.
Soul Card Masters, as beings with highly active perception and intuition, are not completely unconscious even in their sleep. Most Soul Card Masters remain alert even in sleep, reacting to external events at any time.
As Yu Cang is the best among them, there is no need to say more.
But now, this peaceful atmosphere captured Yu Cang, and made him completely fall into the deepest dream, as if... he was back to his childhood, the most carefree time.
He doesn't need to think about Blue Star or the wilderness, he just needs to study hard under the protection of his parents.
…
However, dreams are short-lived after all.
When the morning light softly penetrated his eyelids and the dream gradually faded from his mind, he slowly woke up.
After moving my body a little, I felt my neck a little sore.
"Brother!" Qi'er's voice came from beside her. She said with a smile, "Brother is the one who stayed in bed late today... The sun is shining on his butt!"
"Eh...did I sleep for long?"
Yu Cang propped himself up from the bed and looked at the clock beside the bed, only to find that it was already past ten o'clock.
I slept for more than nine hours... Indeed, I haven't slept for so long in a long time.
The rigid demand for sleep of high-level soul card masters will gradually decrease. At Yu Cang's current level, sleeping is a luxury exercise that he only does for enjoyment in most cases.
He would rather use the time he spends sleeping to study soul cards.
No wonder my body started to feel sore.
Yu Cang shook his head. He sensed for a moment that there was no trace of Gu Jieshuang in the card-making room, so he picked up his personal terminal and saw the message from Gu Jieshuang on it.
-
Boss! I suddenly remembered that I have classes to attend. I'm leaving now!
…
Yu Cang was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
This news is really full of complaints.
After returning from the place where the real dragon died, Gu Jieshuang has been promoted to level seven, and her two coefficients are luxurious. It is estimated that only Yu Cang can surpass her in the entire Blue Star.
Some teachers at the Soul Card Master Academy are not as good as Gu Jie Shuang!
You know, as long as you reach level five, you will be allowed to graduate...Level seven means you can definitely become a teacher.
Even without Yu Cang's relationship, Gudu University has already tacitly agreed that Gu Jieshuang does not need to take any more courses and can apply for graduation at any time.
Not to mention, although Gu Jieshuang is young, the battles she participated in were often legendary and mythical, and her record was rarely matched. In terms of combat experience and skills, university courses would hardly be of any help to her.
What's more, Gu Jieshuang hasn't attended class for a month. If she goes there suddenly, it will probably take her a while to find the classroom.
Even without mentioning all that—why was this message sent at 4:00 AM?!
What kind of class should I take at this time?
However, after thinking about it, it seems understandable... Gu Jieshuang probably wanted to avoid the embarrassment of running into his parents when she got up in the morning, so she simply found a time in the early morning and slipped away before everyone got up.
It seems that this little girl didn’t sleep very well last night...which is in stark contrast to me.
It can be seen that he was sleeping like a pig and didn't even notice that a living person disappeared from his side.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang edited a message and sent it over:
When does the get out of class end?
The next second, Gu Jieshuang's message came.
-
Woohoo! How did the boss know I just finished class? What a coincidence!
-
And, good morning~
Yu Cang smiled and shook his head.
After replying to the message, Yu Cang put down his personal terminal and patted Qi'er's head: "You don't even know how to wake me up."
"Because Qi'er also wants brother to sleep a little longer~ Brother, you've worked hard!"
"Okay...have you eaten yet?"
"I ate! Uncle made breakfast and left it for you, brother. It's on the table... Then, uncle and aunt went out, saying they were visiting old friends and told you not to wait for them." Qi'er squinted his eyes and rubbed Yu Cang's palm, his tone quite proud, "Qi'er remembers everything."
"So good—Okay, brother is going to eat."
“Okay!”
…
After a simple breakfast, Yu Cang went out.
Half a year ago, all the merchants near the card-making house were driven away by Qiu Ding, and the originally bustling street became deserted.
And now... it's still deserted.
It’s not because no one is willing to settle down nearby, it’s simply because the Ancient Capital Soul Card Master Association has already contracted this land and is strictly guarding it. Even the nearby residents have been moved out one after another. Now, few people can get close to here.
All this is naturally because of Yu Cang.
Before, when he published a paper announcing Synchro Summoning, Yu Cang was already well-known throughout Yan Country. Later, in the National College League, Yu Cang's exaggerated performance earned him countless fanatical fans.
Standing up in times of crisis, uncovering the low-key disguise, and fighting across levels to protect everyone, these deeds, like the protagonist of a novel, can really stimulate the passion of young people.
If left unchecked, the card-making room would surely be surrounded by fans who would rush in after hearing the news, and not even a mosquito would be able to fly out.
After all... Yu Cang Card Making House, this name is too conspicuous and can be easily found.
Therefore, the association can only take action to control the situation.
Judging from the current situation, the card-making house probably won’t be able to open anymore... After all, this store mainly sells affordable soul cards, and the products are mainly provided to students nearby. It is not large in scale and cannot handle such fame.
What's more, Yu Cang doesn't have time to manage it bit by bit.
It can only exist as a house.
sough……
The plane trees on both sides of the road were in their prime, and the breeze rustled them. The sunlight passed through the gaps between the leaves, casting spots of light on the road.
Yu Cang held Qi'er's hand and walked on the road paved with spots of light.
After taking just two steps, his long-sleeping body gradually began to move, causing him to stretch lazily.
This feeling is so great.
This time, he did not walk in a hurry, but looked slowly at the green plants on the roadside, the shops on the street and the scenery that was far or near.
He used the La spirit particles stored in the Emperor's spirit particles to slightly blur his face so that others would not recognize him, and then enjoyed this hard-earned peace.
This sight made him a little stunned - when did this road, which he had walked for twenty years, change so much?
The last time I looked at this road carefully was a long time ago... Many details are no longer consistent with my memories, and there is a strange feeling of strangeness.
It turned out that he had been so hurried over the past few years that he couldn't even remember the pattern of the new tiles on the roadside...
"boss!"
A voice came from a distance, and Gu Jieshuang walked out of the roadside milk tea shop with light steps, trotted two steps, and stopped beside Yu Cang.
"Yes, it's yours."
Yu Cang took it and found that the name on the label was "Beat the Scumbag Lemon Green".
He couldn't help but smile.
"And Qi'er, drink this."
“Thank you, sister!”
Qi'er took it happily, but pouted the next second.
"What...why is only Qi'er's hot?"
“It’s good for your health.”
"Hmm..." Qi'er bit the milk tea straw with tears in her eyes.
Woo woo woo…sweet and delicious.
At this time, Yu Cang's voice came from the side: "What class are you taking today?"
Gu Jieshuang laughed out loud: "What? Who wants to attend class? When is the class?"
"Hmm... I remember the class was at four in the morning..."
"stop!"
Gu Jieshuang quickly stuffed the milk tea straw in her hand into Yu Cang's mouth, interrupting his next words.
Then, his tone softened again:
"Boss, I wasn't afraid of embarrassment... Actually, I was with my roommates just now. Hehe, even Nong Weiran is only at level five now, far behind me... Boss, you really should have seen their surprised and envious expressions."
Gu Jieshuang had already finished half of her milk tea. Since it was already in her mouth, Yu Cang simply took a big gulp and drank up the rest.
The empty cup made a rumbling sound, and Gu Jieshuang's expression froze.
It's broken, huge loss!
"It tastes quite good." Yu Cang nodded in affirmation.
He handed the violent scumbag in his hand to Gu Jieshuang: "Will you drink mine?"
"No need."
Gu Jieshuang shook her head, then bent down, picked up Qi'er... and placed her hand in Yu Cangkong's palm.
"Now I have no hands."
Yu Cang couldn't help but smile.
"By the way, Boss, have you decided where to go today? Come to think of it, we haven't even been on a proper date yet."
"Well... let's go first..."
"Wait!" Gu Jieshuang stopped urgently, "Let me guess... let's go to the lab first?"
"Uh..." Yu Cang blinked, "You guessed it."
Gu Jieshuang couldn't help but reveal an expression of "as expected".
"Okay...it's just right. I haven't seen Yunqing for a long time. Let's go to the laboratory first~"
Gu Jieshuang was just a little depressed, and then she became happy again.
Knowing that the boss is very busy, I am already very satisfied to have time to accompany her.
"Wait a minute—Boss, how many people are in the lab now? I'll buy them some milk tea too."
"...I'll ask Yun Qing."
Yu Cang picked up his personal terminal and sent a message.
However, there was no response for a long time.
This made him raise his eyebrows slightly.
After thinking about it, he sent another message to Qiu Ding.
Soon, there was a reply.
-
Master? Ah... Sorry, Master, it seems that no one is in the lab right now.
Looking at this message, Yu Cang was a little surprised.
Judging from Lin Yunqing's personality, he must be in the laboratory now.
If no one reminded her, she might not even go to eat lunch.
But this…
At this time, Qiu Ding sent another message. After reading it clearly, Yu Cang's face suddenly became strange.
Seeing this, Gu Jieshuang on the side hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Uh..." Yu Cang organized his words, "Lin Yunqing...went to run a marathon."
“Ah…ah?!”
"That's right—and then Jiang Lou and Qiu Ding went to volunteer."
Gu Jieshuang was stunned for a moment.
She never imagined that things would unfold like this.
After hesitating for a long time, she said, "Then...do you need to bring milk tea?"
"Forget it." Yu Cang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "It's better not to drink these after running."
Lin Yunqing? Running a marathon?
Can she really finish the run when she gets out of breath after taking two steps?
…
Koto University
Laboratory No. 22.
Today, this laboratory, which originally had ordinary specifications, has become the most important and mysterious place in the ancient capital university.
I don’t know how many people have gone through all the trouble and used all the connections just to get in and take a look at Yu Shen’s workplace, the birthplace of fusion and synchronization, and... take a look at the legendary wishing wall!
Rumor has it that a senior student only stood in front of the wishing wall for one minute and immediately had an epiphany. After returning, he secluded himself for three days and three nights and unexpectedly succeeded in becoming a card-making master and mastered the power to draw heirloom soul cards!
There are countless urban legends related to it, and even people from other schools have heard of it. All the students who come to exchange ideas always ask, "Can I visit the wishing wall?"
At the beginning, the approval process for visiting Laboratory No. 22 was relatively relaxed, but as the number of visitors increased, there was no choice but for Gudu University to announce that it would not accept applications for the time being.
At this moment, two young men leisurely pushed open the door of the laboratory.
Buzz!
When Yu Cang stepped through the door, he felt as if the scene in front of his eyes seemed to be distorted for a moment, and then he came to the familiar laboratory corridor.
When I came back again after a long time, the place had changed.
Ancient Capital University specially hired a master of space-attribute totems to create an additional space in the laboratory and updated it with state-of-the-art equipment. Now, Laboratory 22 is definitely even better than Laboratory 1!
After entering the door, Yu Cang looked to the side.
Wishing wall.
His eyes lit up slightly.
As expected of an urban legend, now, on that wishing wall... one can actually see some unusual rhythm.
It’s hard to describe the quality of this rhythm, but I feel that as long as you comprehend it here, there is a chance that many powerful rhythms will be comprehended.
This rhythm is often called "chaotic rhythm".
Hmm... It seems that with my unremitting efforts to "fulfill my wishes" here, this wishing wall can already be called a small secret realm... In the cardboard box next to it where the sticky notes are stored, the rhythm keeps twisting and fluctuating, exuding bursts of mysterious aura.
Happy New Year's Eve everyone!!
