"Your games here are really fun," the alien commented after a blissful afternoon of playing PUBG. "I'll definitely take some with me when I leave."
"You can't do that," Zheng Shu couldn't help but complain, "There's no internet or electricity in your world."
"Lightning?" Luo Jiujiang looked at Zheng Shu curiously with his beautiful eyes. His expression was both calm and curious, his gaze as clear as a teenager's. "Is that thunder?"
"Essentially, it's the same thing as lightning, but it also involves power stations, circuit networks, good conductors, and so on..." Zheng Shu racked his brains over how to best explain it to him, then suddenly realized, "Oh, no, that's not right. Why should I, a liberal arts student, even answer this kind of question?"
"What's a liberal arts student? Sister Xue often says this."
This alien is simply full of questions. The worst part is that he has a time-traveling friend named Yukiko, which makes him both half-knowledgeable and completely clueless about life in modern society.
This afternoon, Zheng Shu finally understood why the world hated amateurs instructing experts, especially amateurs who pretended to know. Of course, it wasn't that Luo Jiujiang didn't know how to pretend to know. The problem was, as a straight man, how could Zheng Shu have the nerve to respond to this guy's serious remarks about the "top and bottom have their limits" and "golden chrysanthemums" and other rubbish he'd heard from Xue Zi?
Fortunately, Luo Jiujiang himself didn't have the airs of a powerful cultivator; he was even considerate and understanding when it came to caring for others. As soon as Zheng Shu showed a hint of embarrassment, he naturally changed the subject, which was incredibly thoughtful.
This is the standard good man, handsome, good-tempered, capable, and easy-going, although his aesthetic taste is like blind - he is not afraid of even wearing colorful shorts. What kind of Thor and Lightning Queen can quarrel with him?
Not only did they quarrel, but they also got physical, forcing this high-quality boyfriend into the modern world through a wormhole. Zheng Shu sighed inwardly when he thought of his new friend's experience, and silently sighed: I really don't understand you gays.
"Liberal arts students are... in high school, students here are divided into arts and science. Oh my god, I said the wrong thing, please don't ask."
Zheng Shu was halfway through his explanation when he suddenly realized that he had said something wrong: explaining the arts and sciences would involve high school, and then Luo Jiujiang would ask what high school was, which would probably involve his country's education system. Maybe he would go off track a few times in the process, and involve foreign countries from his country. What if Luo Jiujiang discovered that there were three skin colors in the world, he would have to start from the African mother ape Lucy and do a good job of popularizing the issue of racial differentiation.
——So let’s just kill him. He’s a liberal arts student, so why can’t he avoid biology and physics problems?
"Let's get back to the original question. You asked me what electricity is?" Zheng Shu nipped the dangerous prospect of endless discussion in the bud. "Look at that phone you picked up. It's really running out of power. Come and see! Charge it here. See? This is the power this phone needs."
Luo Jiujiang nodded in sudden realization: "That is the energy needed to drive this magical weapon."
Zheng Shu: “…”
Although it sounds so feudal and superstitious, but... forget it, as long as he is happy.
Unexpectedly, this very charging caused quite a bit of trouble. Luo Jiujiang reached out and touched the still-charging phone, and said calmly and peacefully, "This electricity is not much different from our Little Thunderbolt Technique."
Then, the next moment! Zheng Shu watched helplessly as the master flicked his finger, and suddenly, a giant ball of lightning appeared in the room! As if alive, the lightning bolt flew straight towards the phone without a word, not even giving Zheng Shu time to say hello!
“No no no no no no no no—”
By the time Zheng Shu said this, it was too late. He watched helplessly as his spare phone was engulfed in the piercing, arcing ball of lightning. Even though his phone wasn't a March brand, any phone battery couldn't withstand such treatment.
As expected, the moment a scream erupted from his throat, the circuit connecting the phone to the other side flashed ominously. This flash was accompanied by a loud boom! It was the socket and the phone protesting together, exploding without a word.
However, the explosion did not hurt Zheng Shu at all, or rather, it had no power other than the noise, and it could not even lift up half a grain of ash in the ashtray next to him.
However, the alien saw that the situation was not good, so he tightened his hands and controlled the explosion tightly in an area the size of a baby's fist, without it even spreading outwards.
——But it was useless even if he controlled the situation. The crystal chandelier above Zheng Shu's head went out, and within three seconds, all the rooms in the villa fell into darkness according to the order of the distribution of the electrical wires.
Zheng Shu could already hear someone downstairs saying, "The power's out!" The instigator, the great Mr. Luo Jiujiang, looked at him with an innocent and kind smile. He curiously asked, "So this magical weapon of yours can not only be used for fun, but can also be used to attack when necessary?"
Zheng Shu raised his hand and grabbed his chest. He felt like vomiting blood.
He should have corrected Luo Jiujiang! It started when Luo Jiujiang mistakenly thought that the phone was a magic weapon!
The good-tempered Mr. Luo Jiujiang first scooped up a ball of light in his palm to illuminate the room, then looked up at the crystal chandelier, which was no longer emitting light. He even pointed at it and asked in confusion, "Is it out of energy? Do you need me to provide it with some?"
