Chapter 77 Shui Lingling has an appointment
After the live broadcast ended, Qi Gu looked as cold as ever as he walked past the shrine at the entrance of the main hall, passed the courtyard, and returned to the room.
If there was someone here who was familiar with him, they would be able to see that Qi Gu's expression at this moment was actually slightly different from before.
Qi Gu was actually angry - he hated irresponsible parents, such as the parents who abandoned him, Shi Gui's parents, and Shui Shui's parents.
The quality of parents varies greatly. Parents can choose whether to have children, but children cannot choose what kind of parents they will be born to.
Children are fragile and have no choices from the moment they are born. They are the most vulnerable group and are most likely to be harmed by others.
…
"Master, you are back. I watched the live broadcast. You also solved the problem successfully today. You are really worthy of me. I have cleaned the bed for you and prepared snacks..." Jin Chan said a lot of words, and finally Qi Gu's expression changed from cold to impatient.
"You go out first." Qi Gu said.
"Okay." Jin Chan jumped out, but suddenly turned back, "Master! In the yard, there is a fruit on the peach tree in the yard. It's really strange... I remember very clearly that this fruit was not there yesterday. How can it grow out of thin air so juicy?"
When Qi Gu suddenly heard this, his cold face fluctuated noticeably, his lazy image disappeared, and he rushed out of the room and ran straight towards the peach tree.
Under the combined illumination of the moonlight and the lights in the room, Qi Gu stared at the green peach, only half the size of a fist, that appeared out of nowhere, and for a moment he didn't know how to react.
The peach had not yet grown fuzz and looked shiny and slippery. Qi Gu seemed to have noticed something and looked towards the path connecting the main hall and the backyard. He thought of the small shrine that was still standing outside the hall door under the moonlight when he passed by.
Did the master see how disappointed I was and specially sent me this peach?
But bringing the dead back to life is obviously not something that ordinary ghosts can do.
Could it be that... the master is really not an ordinary person as people say on the Internet, but a powerful figure who cannot reveal his true identity due to some restrictions?
Qi Gu left the bewildered golden toad behind and quickly ran outside the main hall. He said to the shrine, "One is not enough. I want two. You must give them to me by tomorrow morning. Otherwise... otherwise I will never leave this door again."
He threatened carefully.
It also means to test whether the master is really still conscious and remains in this Fumi Temple.
The small statue in the shrine did not respond at all and kept its eyes downcast. Qi Gu was not annoyed, but walked briskly back to the room.
The next morning, the first thing Qi Gu did after opening his eyes was not to stay in bed. Instead, he jumped straight to the peach tree.
I saw a peach the size of a bottle cap nestled next to the half-fist-sized green peach from last night. The morning dew on the two peaches was sparkling in the early morning sunlight.
Just like in the past, the thin master was wearing a long robe, and the three-head-tall Qi Gu was holding his hand and following behind him.
Qi Gu smiled, and his smile was happier than if he had eaten the most delicious food.
He knew that his master was still alive and they would meet again if they were destined to.
Jin Chan was so frightened that he fainted: "This, this, this... Could it be that this peach tree has also become a spirit?"
This shouldn't be the case. If it really was a spirit, why didn't it notice it at all?
But considering that Qi Gu doted on the peach tree, Jin Chan felt that he had to take good care of the peach tree for the master, and immediately said: "Master, don't worry, let me take care of the peach tree from now on. The family I used to work with studied plant cultivation technology, and I have learned a little bit of it. I guarantee that I can keep your tree fat and strong, no, luxuriant and leafy."
Qi Gu: "Thank you very much, I'll add some incense to you."
Upon hearing this, Jin Chan suddenly became excited and immediately jumped to look up information for research.
When Mu Xingchen saw Qi Gu standing under the peach tree, he hurried over and said, "Master, master, I memorized two more pages last night. Please test me." As he spoke, he handed the collection of ghost language in his hand to Qi Gu.
Qi Gu didn't even need to open the book. He just started questioning Mu Xingchen based on the pages he had memorized before.
Mu Xingchen paused occasionally, but was generally coherent and smooth.
Under the peach tree, the green branches and leaves swayed as Qi Gu and Mu Xingchen asked and answered each other.
Three generations of people are listening here attentively.
The day before the filming date of the third episode was confirmed, Lin Hanzhi, who had been chatting with Qi Gu on WeChat every day, was finally discharged from the hospital after recovering and invited Qi Gu to have dinner together.
Qi Gu readily agreed to go.
As a result, when he got on the car sent by Lin Hanzhi and arrived at the destination, Qi Gu was shocked to find that it was the Shui Yunjian restaurant where he had just eaten not long ago.
"The food in this restaurant is delicious. I was invited to taste the food before it opened," said Lin Hanzhi.
He stood outside the door of Shuiyunjian, his face as pale as ever, like a white jade statue, with very little pigment on his body.
Today, he wasn't dressed very tightly, but he was wearing a two-piece suit with an open collar, revealing a small crimson mole on his delicate collarbone.
Qi Gu stared at the gorgeous little mole for a few more seconds.
Then he said, "The air-conditioning is on low in here, so you might as well button up."
Lin Hanzhi was stunned for two seconds: "...Okay, thank you for caring about my health."
"Are you feeling better?" Qi Gu asked.
"It's the same as before. Actually, you want to ask me whether I will participate in the next show?" Lin Hanzhi said.
"Yeah." Qi Gu nodded. When it came to being on the show, he still hoped to be with people he knew.
"Yes, don't worry. I am very dedicated to my work. I will not leave the front line even if I am slightly injured. Besides, I am very happy to work with you." Lin Hanzhi said with a smile.
Being able to finish work while lying down, is there anything happier in the world than working with Qi Gu?
Qi Gu vaguely felt that there seemed to be something wrong with what Lin Hanzhi said, but his attention was soon attracted by the new dishes served.
Eat first, if there is anything else, you can put it off until later.
The host and guests finished the meal happily.
Qi Gu called the waiter before Lin Hanzhi: "Let me pay the bill. I have the SVIP card here."
The waiter looked at Lin Hanzhi for help.
Lin Hanzhi had already put this order on account.
"Thank you very much," Lin Hanzhi said, "Can I treat you to something else?"
The waiter heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and respectfully took Qi Gu's card to register.
There is a large shopping mall not far from Shuiyunjian.
After the two of them left Shuiyunjian, they came to the mall. Lin Hanzhi swiped a few times at the stores in the mall displayed on the phone, and then said, "There is an arcade on the first floor of this mall, as well as some sports experiences such as archery and surfing. I guess you won't like the latter."
Qi Gu really doesn't like sports that require too much movement: "Then let's go to the video game arcade. It just so happens that I haven't played it before."
He did work at a video game arcade as a front desk salesperson, but he had never played the game.
"What a coincidence. I haven't played it either." Lin Hanzhi smiled at Qi Gu. "When I was a kid, my family forced me to practice horse riding, archery, golf, etc. It was tiring and sunny. No matter how I think about it, the arcade is more comfortable."
Qi Gu: “…”
What kind of statement is this from a rich second generation?
"But it's okay. In fact, I wasn't forced to study for a long time." Lin Hanzhi continued.
Qi Gu asked: "Have your family come to their senses and decided to let you develop freely?"
"No." Lin Hanzhi's eyes looked a little lonely, "Although it's a little tiring, it's not like I can't learn more..."
The two of them came to the cashier counter. This was Lin Hanzhi's first time in an arcade, so she happily looked around the place, and then said to the front desk, "Hello, how do I top up my game coins?"
“One hundred for one hundred, two hundred for three hundred, and five hundred for eight hundred.” Seeing that there were only two of them, the receptionist recommended only the set meal suitable for them.
"Then let's top up 10,000 first." Lin Hanzhi raised his hand and handed over the black card.
"Ah???" The receptionist thought she was deaf.
Qi Gu also hurriedly grabbed his hand, amused and speechless: "How can we finish the game with so much money? Two hundred is enough."
"If you can't use it all, you can come back next time." Lin Hanzhi said.
It was the first time that the front desk clerk came up and wanted to top up 10,000 yuan. She hurriedly called the boss who was slacking off and playing video games and said, "Boss, this customer wants to top up 10,000 yuan. How many coins do you think would be appropriate?"
"Ten thousand?!" The boss was also shocked. He thought for a few seconds and said, "Well, let's just double it. Ten thousand will give us twenty thousand coins."
Lin Hanzhi gave Qi Gu a look that said "see, we made a profit" and took the card handed to him by the front desk.
Qi Gu was silent for a moment: "..."
With 20,000 coins, even if he and Lin Hanzhi played in this arcade day and night for a month, they might not be able to finish it!
But Lin Hanzhi seemed very happy and winked at Qi Gu, "Which projects are more fun? Do you know?"
Qi Gu himself had never played it, but he had seen pigs running. He recalled a few games where many customers gathered and asked, "Where is the claw machine?"
As far as I can remember, when he was lying on the table like a lazy fish, there would often be a burst of exclamations suddenly erupting from that area.
"Then let's catch the dolls first." Lin Hanzhi said, "Once we have caught ten, we can play something else."
Listening to his bold words, Qi Gu's heart skipped a beat.
No, who told you that you can catch ten dolls at once?
According to what he had seen before, it was a blessing from God if he could catch one in each trip.
