Chen Zhong, an all-round otaku, an actor, and an ordinary citizen who is neither good nor bad.
Acting with caution is his motto, developing in a vulgar way is his good quality, and destroying corpses and evidence is his obsessive-compulsive disorder.
His hobby is studying spiritual arrays, and he likes to hide and overlap spiritual arrays to trick people.
Lifelong ideal - to be ordinary!
The peaceful week was shattered by a phone call.
"Hello, your express delivery has arrived. I have left it in the guard room for you." The courier said and hung up.
"It should be the admission letter from Linglong Academy." Chen Zhong estimated the time. He only had half a month left before he would officially become a spiritual martial arts student!
Wait! Could this be a bomb sent by the remnants of the Mingqi Society?
Thinking of this, Chen Zhong activated the Black Tortoise Body and the Divine Escape Technique in advance, ready to withstand the attack or slip away at any time.
Click!
The door opened, and coincidentally, Jia Shuangshuang from the opposite side also came out.
"Are you going out?" Jia Shuangshuang asked a random question.
"Well, pick up a courier." Chen Zhong smiled.
"I'm also picking up a package." Jia Shuangshuang replied, and then the conversation between the two of them became awkward, and the awkward atmosphere became more and more intense.
The girl doesn't plan to leave because she has nowhere to go and school is about to start. She said she can hide in school to develop and then go out and have fun when she becomes strong enough.
Then she knocked on Chen Zhong's door every day, asking him how to become the king.
Chen Zhong had no choice. He couldn't just kill her to silence her, could he? So he had no choice but to teach her some survival tips.
It was the height of summer, cicadas were chirping non-stop, and a few elderly people were playing chess in the shade of the dense trees, enjoying the cool air.
"Report on the recent situation." Chen Zhong said.
Jia Shuangshuang rubbed the hem of her skirt with her fingers, feeling a little nervous. "Go to bed on time, set the alarm, strictly follow the schedule, eat healthily, exercise for an hour every day, and make sure you can escape quickly.
With your advice, I taught myself cooking and developed patience and carefulness.
I have gained a lot from studying "The Art of War" and "Thirty-Six Strategies".
I finished watching "The Palace" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan" last night. I have a little understanding of women's scheming, but I don't like it and I don't want to learn it.
Today I started watching the Qin Empire trilogy and Nirvana in Fire to learn about the big picture and the art of keeping a low profile.
Chen Zhong shook his head. "That's your summary. When you get back, write me a 5,000-word summary of your findings. You can read House of Cards, The Butterfly Effect, and Inception to improve your thinking and judgment skills. Also, you just made a mistake."
"Ah?" Jia Shuangshuang was confused.
Chen Zhong knocked on Jia Shuangshuang's head seriously and said, "When I passed by your house, I smelled the aroma of stewed food and heard the sound of steam coming out of the pressure cooker. Based on the sound, I judged that you used a high fire!
Since you are going out, you should turn down the fire or turn it off directly. What if the two of us go out for a while and there is an explosion? You are playing with the lives of our neighbors!
"I... I was wrong... I'll go back and lock it up now." Jia Shuangshuang immediately turned around and ran back.
Two minutes later, Jia Shuangshuang stood in front of Chen Zhong, sweating profusely, with her head lowered and looking pitiful.
"This won't happen again," Chen Zhong said with a smile, "What's that stew? It smells so good."
Jia Shuangshuang's face lit up immediately, and she quickly followed, "White radish and pork thigh!"
"To make up for your mistake this time, I'll bring the food over later and we'll eat together. I have some Lao Gan Ma at home, so you can dip the radish in it." Chen Zhong didn't blush at all. After all, he had been... doing it for several days.
"Hmph!" Jia Shuangshuang smiled, but at the same time asked a question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time, "Why are the books and TV dramas you let me read all from a thousand years ago?"
Chen Zhong did not answer. This question had troubled him for a long time. This world was very strange. Things from a thousand years ago were 90% similar to those in his previous life, but the history in various aspects was very different and was only generally similar.
It doesn’t seem like another world, it’s more like a parallel world where spiritual energy has been revived!
After thinking about it for a long time without any results, Chen Zhong stopped worrying about it.
Guard room, temporary storage point for express delivery.
What Chen Zhong received was a box-shaped package, not just a document notice.
“Ah, this…”
Chen Zhong hesitated. The more he looked at this thing, the more it looked like it was filled with TNT.
And when he discovered that Jia Shuangshuang's express delivery was also in an identical rectangular box, his vigilance instantly reached its peak.
If it happens to one person, it can be a coincidence, but if it happens to two people, then it's not simple.
Jia Shuangshuang, who was originally calm, became suspicious. She hid behind the door and waited on guard, stopping anyone who wanted to come in to pick up the express delivery.
"call!"
The Black Tortoise Body was operating at full power, and Chen Zhong's skin was glowing with glass-like lightning and patterns. This kind of defense might not be able to be broken even by the first or second level of the Blood Surge Realm.
Carefully unpacking the outer packaging, I found a metal box inside with the Chinese character "天" written in brush calligraphy on the front.
He slid the lock, and after a click, Chen Zhong slowly opened it.
What you see is not a bomb, but neatly arranged objects.
It was a false alarm!
"It's okay, come in."
When Jia Shuangshuang came in, she was about to look through it, but Chen Zhong stopped her and said, "Go home and read it."
There was indeed something like an admission letter in the box.
But Chen Zhong’s head was a little confused right now, and he couldn’t help but sigh that the behind-the-scenes manipulation methods of those big guys above were really dirty.
His first choice was clearly Lingwu Master College affiliated with Linglong University, but now he received a notification letter from "Tianyan Hall Affiliated College", abbreviated as Tianyan College.
The Tianyan Palace, one of the seven major forces in the world, stands on par with the three major empires, and the Tianyan Academy, located in Linglong Mountain in Linglong City, is one of the two strongest academies in the Chiyan Empire.
