Chapter 125 Extra 6
Lin Qingyu took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down again.
The cause of the incident was that Xu Junyuan claimed that he had obtained a strange stone from Mount Kunlun. The stone was full of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and its entire body was green like jade. It had the effect of strengthening the soul and stabilizing the spirit, and perhaps had some other special benefits. He cut the strange stone into two parts, made them into a pair of rings, and presented them to the emperor and empress on the birthday celebration.
Xu Junyuan is a strange man, so Lin Qingyu and Jiang Xing will naturally treat the treasures he offers with caution. The two of them followed his instructions, placed the rings under their pillows and went to sleep. Who would have thought that waking up would turn the world upside down.
Lin Qingyu found himself standing in a crowd of people, the number of which was comparable to that of the Lantern Festival in Dayu. But these people were obviously not Dayu people. Their mouths and noses were covered with cloth. Some of them wore thin and strange clothes, some of which were similar to what Jiang Xing wore in his two dreams; others wore long gowns and tights similar to Dayu's clothes. Therefore, I was not conspicuous in my Dayu costume.
——Oh, how could it not be conspicuous?
He stood there for only a moment before the intersection was crowded with onlookers, who were looking at him openly, some holding a square object in their hands, some pointing a cylinder at him. He knew that the square object was a mobile phone, and the cylinder should be the camera that Jiang Xing had told him about. They were taking his picture.
...When he returns to Dayu, he will make sure the little poisonous snake thanks Xu Junyuan for his generous gift.
Lin Qingyu remained calm on the surface, but a trace of confusion and fear arose in his heart. His fear was not because he suddenly found himself in a strange place, but because Jiang Xing was not by his side.
If the strange stone given by Xu Junyuan was the culprit that caused him to come to a foreign land, then Jiang Xing should have come with him. But where is Jiang Xingren?
Lin Qingyu looked up and saw a number of huge drawing boards hanging on the roof. The characters on the boards were the simplified Chinese characters that Jiang Xing had taught him. On each drawing board there is a line of words written: "Guangzhou Hanfu Carnival".
Guangzhou is Dayu’s Jiaozhou and also Jiang Xing’s hometown. Jiang Xing must also be in this city.
He must be there—he dares not to be!
Lin Qingyu lowered his eyes in deep thought, and the passers-by who were taking pictures of him said to each other: "Handsome boy, please look this way - look at the camera, thank you!"
"Handsome guy, whose Hanfu are you wearing? Can you give me a link?"
"Brother, can you add me on WeChat? I'll send you the photos after I finish retouching them~"
…
Lin Qingyu had a cold face and said nothing. It wasn't that he was intentionally turning a deaf ear; he just didn't know how to respond. He decided to leave this crowded place and find a quiet place to think about countermeasures.
Lin Qingyu said "Excuse me" to the onlookers and walked to the side. The place he was in was very big, not less than Xingqing Palace, and he walked for a long time but still hadn't reached the end. He found that as soon as he stopped, he would be surrounded by people. Although many people took out their phones to take pictures of him and talk to him while he was walking, at least he didn't face the embarrassing situation just now.
Jiang Xing once said that if he went to his hometown one day, he could find him with the help of his mobile phone. The most urgent thing was to find a passerby to borrow a cell phone to call Jiang Xing. According to his observation, everyone in Jiang Xing's hometown has a mobile phone, so it should not be difficult to borrow this thing.
"Excuse me--"
An excited voice came from behind. Lin Qingyu turned around and met a pair of big, deer-like eyes. This was a girl about his age, with something called a "work ID" hanging around her neck, and her name was written on it. The girl's surname is Ke and her name is Ketang.
Ke Tang said: "Little brother, it's better to wear a mask when you are not taking pictures."
Ketang's voice is as sweet as his name suggests. Lin Qingyu said: "Mask?"
"Yes, although there is no epidemic in Guangzhou at this time, we can't take it lightly."
“I don’t have a mask.”
"Then I'll give you one." Ke Tang took out a mask and handed it to Lin Qingyu. Before Lin Qingyu put it on, she whispered, "Wait a minute, little brother, can I take a photo with you?"
As a staff member of the Hanfu exhibition, what she did was a bit wrong. But the little brother was so handsome that she couldn't help it.
Lin Qingyu did not respond.
Ke Tang was a little embarrassed, but didn't blame Lin Qingyu at all. Is it impolite for a beautiful woman to ignore others? It turns out she doesn't deserve it!
"It doesn't matter if you can't!" Ke Tang said quickly, "Sorry to bother you!"
Lin Qingyu smiled and said, "No, I didn't say no. Please."
Ke Tang was stunned by the surprise and frantically took out his cell phone. She didn't dare stand too close to the beauty, for fear of disturbing her obviously extremely expensive clothes.
The boy is a head taller than her, about 1.8 meters tall, which is considered tall in the south. Ke Tang raised his phone, made a scissors gesture stiffly to the camera, and pressed the camera button. Because she was a little panicked, she forgot to turn on the beauty filter. Facts have proved that the beauty of a true beauty can stand the test of a front-facing camera. A casual photo of her looks better than one that she has retouched for five hundred years.
Lin Qingyu asked: "Have you finished filming?"
"We've finished shooting." Ke Tang smiled brightly, "Thank you, little brother!"
"You're welcome." Lin Qingyu put on a mask and said his true purpose, "I also have something to ask. Can I borrow your phone?"
"Eh? Cell phone?"
Lin Qingyu explained: "I want to find someone using my mobile phone, but I don't have one myself."
Ke Tang thought that Lin Qingyu didn't bring his cell phone with him, because there didn't seem to be any place to put a cell phone on his fancy clothes. Ke Tang generously handed over the phone: "You can use it."
Lin Qingyu stared at the phone and didn't pick it up. Jiang Xing had nothing to do, so he talked to him a lot about mobile phones. He knew many uses of mobile phones, but after all, there were no real ones in Dayu, so no matter how much he knew, he would not be able to use them.
"Can you make this call for me?" Lin Qingyu asked.
"Of course." Ke Tang was very enthusiastic. "What's the phone number?"
Neither he nor Jiang Xing had ever thought that they would really return to Jiang Xing's hometown one day, and the phone call was just a casual remark. Fortunately, he had a good memory and remembered the string of numbers after just one hearing.
Ke Tang dialed the number Lin Qingyu told her. Before the beep sounded, she asked, "Little brother, who are you calling?"
Lin Qingyu thought for a moment and said, "Give it to my husband."
Ke Tang's eyes widened and he almost dropped his phone: "...Ah?!"

Jiang Xing woke up and found himself lying on the sofa. The air conditioner was whirring, he was covered with a thin blanket, and his cell phone lay quietly beside him.
Jiang Xing sat up slowly and looked at the time. It was already evening. He started to sleep after lunch and only slept for five hours in total, but he always felt that he had slept for a very long time and had a very long dream.
The aftereffect of taking a nap is that everything seems wrong, as if the world has changed a lot and it feels like a different world.
Jiang Xing was sitting on the sofa in a daze when he heard footsteps coming up the stairs. The girl who came down was wearing a pure white dress and light makeup. She was his cousin, Pei Zhiqi, who was one year older than him.
Pei Zhiqi saw that Jiang Xing looked distracted and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xing said slowly, "I feel like I just had a very long dream. I dreamed that I died and came back to life, and came back to life and died again. It was very painful. I also... dreamed of a classical beauty in a wedding dress."
"Beauty? How beautiful?"
Jiang Xing tried hard to recall, but still came up empty-handed: "Fuck, I can't remember clearly."
Pei Zhiqi didn't take it seriously: "That's what dreams are like, you forget them once you wake up."
Jiang Xing hesitated for a moment and said, "You are right." He gave up his memories and lay back on the sofa.
"Don't sleep anymore. You've already slept the whole afternoon." Pei Zhiqi said speechlessly, "Are you planning to sleep through the first day of the National Day holiday?"
"To be honest, I plan to spend the next six days like this, not just the first day." Jiang Xing turned on his phone, opened the reading app, and continued reading the novel he hadn't finished.
Pei Zhiqi glanced at his screen and said in surprise: "You are really watching "Huai Bu Shi Jun"!"
"Didn't you recommend it to me?"
Pei Zhiqi smiled slyly: "Yes, yes, what do you think of the plot?"
"It's hard to explain in a few words. Anyway, what keeps me watching now is to see how Xiao Cheng dies and to see Doctor Lin kill everyone."
"Doctor Lin? You mean Lin Qingyu. Do you like him?"
Jiang Xing said without hesitation: "I like it."
"But he's not a good person. He killed a lot of people for revenge."
Jiang Xing raised his eyebrows: "What a coincidence, I like to watch him kill people for revenge. I declare that from today on, I will be Dr. Lin's sole promoter."
Pei Zhiqi had a complicated expression: "I advise you to push a few more, just in case the house collapses..."
Jiang Xing sensed something was wrong: "What do you mean? What happened to my beautiful lady Lin?"
"I didn't say anything," Pei Zhiqi said guiltily, "Just look behind you." After that, she took an orange from the coffee table and went upstairs.
Half an hour later, Pei Zhiqi came downstairs again, holding a mobile phone in her hand: "The Hanfu Carnival has become a hot topic. It seems that the models in a certain store are super handsome and super beautiful..." She enlarged the photo and squinted her eyes to find flaws, "Can anyone really look like this?"
Jiang Xing whispered, "He's dead."
Pei Zhiqi was startled and didn't react for a moment: "Who, who died?"
Jiang Xing chuckled and rubbed his eyes which were sore from looking at the phone for so long: "How boring."
When Pei Zhiqi saw the scene in "Huai Bu Shi Jun" where Lin Qingyu committed suicide in the East Palace on Jiang Xing's mobile phone screen, she suddenly realized what was going on, felt the same way, and expressed deep sympathy. She sat down next to her brother and consoled him, "Don't think about it, he's just a piece of paper. Unplug the network cable and forget about all the grudges. Come on, brother, log in. I've recently practiced jungle, let me lead the team."
Jiang Xing: “…”
"Oh, I forgot! You're not even 18 yet, and you can only play for one hour at night on holidays! How miserable."
Jiang Xing silently opened the game and logged in successfully. Pei Zhiqi was stunned: "How did you do it?"
Jiang Xing said: "I used my aunt's, your mother's, ID card."
The two entered the game and were in the middle of a team battle when a phone call came in. The caller ID shows an unfamiliar number and the location is also Guangzhou, so it is most likely a sales call. Jiang Xing rejected the call with a flick of his finger.
“Beep—”
Ke Tang blinked and told Lin Qingyu: "Your husband hung up the phone."
Lin Qingyu frowned: "What do you mean by hung up?"
Ke Tang said: "It means that he doesn't want to answer the call."
Lin Qingyu's eyes shone, and he asked coldly, "Why?"
"Maybe he saw an unfamiliar number and didn't want to answer it. I would be the same." Ke Tang said, "How about I send him a message?"
Lin Qingyu nodded: "Okay, thank you."
Ke Tang edited the message, showed it to Lin Qingyu, and sent it out after making sure there was no problem: [Hello, I am a kind passerby. Your wife is lost and doesn’t have her cell phone with her, so she asked you to pick her up~]
Lin Qingyu and Ke Tang waited for fifteen minutes before they got Jiang Xing's reply:
