Chapter 133 World Four [19]
Gu Qi didn't know that Jing Ke had given him such a poor evaluation. After hanging up the phone, he hunched over and sat back next to his girlfriend.
"Who's calling?" Cai Meng asked curiously.
"It's the Special Management Bureau I mentioned to you. It's a regular return visit to record how I've been living lately." Gu Qi said half-truthfully.
"By the way, it seems that some fans took pictures of us watching a movie together. When we leave later, I will temporarily change your facial features so that you look like an ordinary person." Gu Qi said in a low voice.
Cai Meng nodded, but after a moment, she still felt a little worried. "You really didn't run away secretly? Are those people here to take you back?"
"Of course not. There are so many monsters that can transform into humans. If the Special Management Bureau really wants to catch them, they won't be able to cope with it." Gu Qi said, taking the opportunity to tell his girlfriend about the most powerful group of Jindan stage monsters.
The coexistence of monks and spirits is not something that has only happened in recent years. As early as ancient times when monks could tame spirits into spiritual beasts, there was no absolute opposition between the two sides.
Cai Meng listened attentively, and only felt a little relieved after confirming that what his fox girlfriend said was consistent with her previous statements.
Don't get me wrong, Cai Meng didn't think that her crying girlfriend on the bed had done anything to her. She was simply worried that she was a fugitive and that following a celebrity with a high exposure like herself would make her a target of the arresting police.
"I understand. Let's go home after watching the movie. The community is very private. Even if they follow our car, they can't enter the community." Cai Meng said.
"But don't you want to go to the food court and try some of Haishi's special snacks?" Gu Qi asked, his handsome eyebrows furrowed. "I can make sure they don't recognize you anyway, so why don't we go shopping at the food court before heading back?"
Gu Qi doesn't like hiding, and he doesn't like his girlfriend to give up what she wants to do because of some external forces.
"We are not something to be ashamed of. There is no need to put ourselves in a difficult position for insignificant people," Gu Qi emphasized.
Cai Meng was a little moved by what she said. If she wouldn't be recognized, then it seemed like it wouldn't be a problem to stay outside for another two hours, right?

The movie was chosen by Wen Ruyue and Jing Ke together. On such a lively day before the New Year, of course they had to watch a comedy with good reputation and high ratings.
We bought a VIP theater with a relatively higher ticket price. The total area of the theater is relatively small and can accommodate no more than 30 spectators. Every seat is a good viewing seat.
Wen Ruyue bought three consecutive seats. She sat in the middle, with Sect Leader Wen on her left and Jing Ke on her right. This gave Wen Ruyue a very brief illusion that she was a master who needed to balance both sides.
In fact, Wen Ruyue did have to serve water, because she bought a large popcorn bucket and held it in her hand. She needed to let her master taste it. At the same time, she also had to select the popcorn with relatively full grains and feed it to Jing Ke, who was leaning towards her.
"Contractor, you eat too." After eating more than ten popcorns in a row, Jing Ke turned his eyes away from the plot-filled movie and turned to feed his breeder.
Wen Ruyue opened her mouth and took a bite. After she swallowed it, Jing Ke took the initiative to pass the milk tea to her mouth.
The light reflected from the big screen was enough for Wen Ruyue to recognize that the milk tea in Jing Ke's hand was not the one she ordered, but the taro milk that Jing Ke had chosen.
People who keep cats sometimes don’t mind using the same cup with their cats. So since Jing Ke is a big cat in another sense, it should be normal for her to drink a cup of milk tea with him.
After completing the self-strategy, Wen Ruyue bit the straw without any burden and tasted what the full-sugar milk tea tasted like.
Well, it's a bit sweet, but the taste is good. It uses good tea and high-quality milk.
Sect Leader Wen silently took out a handful of popcorn from the popcorn bucket. Before he brought it to his mouth, he couldn't help but glance at the young couple sitting in front of him on the left.
If he saw correctly, the interaction between the young couple was very similar to the interaction between his eldest disciple and Senior Baihu.
Is this level of interaction normal? Feeding the beast food and then receiving food from the beast doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it.
Sect Leader Wen thought about it and realized that she had no experience in love as she had been practicing diligently since she was twelve years old.
But Master Wen has seen many people in love. Some of them are willing to give up their status as monks for the so-called love. Especially for monks who are with ordinary people, the huge difference in lifespan becomes a gap before them.
One of them was already very old, while the other still looked to be in her early thirties. After the ordinary people left, the cultivators either made no progress in their cultivation or committed suicide within a year.
But if his eldest disciple really fell in love with a transformed divine beast, wouldn't that be a good thing? At least they could accompany each other for not just a hundred years, but hundreds of years.
If the eldest disciple could break through and become a Nascent Soul cultivator, then they could spend more time together.
Sect Leader Wen ate the popcorn in her hand slowly, her thoughts having long since drifted away from the comedy movie whose memoirs she hardly understood, and drifted to the distant future of her eldest disciple.

The accident did not happen when Jing Ke and the other two were watching the movie. When they came out of the cinema, Sun Lin and Zhang He had already left.
Wen Ruyue took out her cell phone and took a look. Sure enough, there was a message from Sun Lin.
They have already contacted Gu Qi and the other one. Perhaps in order to cover up their tracks, Gu Qi openly invited them to go to the food street together, and then showed their affection to each other in front of them.
Thinking that Sun Lin and Zhang He were still single, Wen Ruyue couldn't help but laugh.
As a transformed demon, Gu Qi's thoughts are indeed different from those of ordinary people, and his desire for revenge is particularly strong. After realizing that he could not get rid of the two people, he found various ways to make them uncomfortable.
Wen Ruyue's guess was not wrong, but she was not completely right either.
Gu Qi asked Sun Lin and Zhang He to go with her, not to take revenge on them, but more because she needed them to produce their IDs to testify for her, so that she would not be misunderstood by her girlfriend as a fugitive monster.
Perhaps it was really the New Year's good luck that helped, the situation Sun Lin was worried about did not occur, and both groups had a pretty good day.

The eight major sects' headquarters are officially designated. The sects have extremely high power within the headquarters and can build the headquarters as they like without having to abide by external regulations.
For example, at Lingxiao Gate, the buildings within the base are more ancient in style, and are basically only one story high. Only in places like the library are there five stories high.
The antique style of the building does not mean that the facilities inside are also antique. Water, electricity and coal are all supplied by dedicated lines, and the consumption share is fully covered by the government.
As for whether there is an internet connection, the specific regulations vary depending on the sect.
For example, in a sect like the Sword Sect that focuses on body building and cultivation, there is no internet in the base, and bringing a mobile phone in can only perform the most basic communication functions.
Lingxiao Sect did not have much pressure to practice, so when mobile phones and the Internet became popular, they applied for a dedicated line to achieve network coverage in the entire area.
The benefit of doing this is also obvious, that is, Jing Ke, Wen Ruyue and Master Wen can sit on the sofa together and watch the local Spring Festival Gala projected in front of them.
That’s right, it’s the Local Spring Festival Gala where Cai Meng will appear, not the traditional Spring Festival Gala that is full of educational content and internet memes.
Master Wen sat relaxedly on the single sofa, watching the performance on the big screen with a smile on his face.
Jing Ke took advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders around and only wore another loose outer robe, with nothing underneath. Not only did he lean against Wen Ruyue's arms unscrupulously, he also let out his tail and used it to roll up a fork to eat fruit.
"Contractor, eat." While filling his own stomach, Jing Ke did not forget to feed his breeder.
The fruits and snacks on the coffee table were chosen by myself, but it was Wen Ruyue who paid for, washed and cut them, so I should give something back.
"Thank you." Wen Ruyue opened her mouth and bit it, taking the opportunity to touch Jing Ke's smooth tail hair.
Jing Ke didn't mind. After putting the fork back, he handed the tail to Wen Ruyue so that she could enjoy it.
Only when necessary would Jing Ke pull out her tail to eat a piece of fruit, or snacks like chocolate with liqueur that she bought at the mall.
In human form, Jing Ke's tail is smaller than that of an adult, only about one and a half meters in length, and its thickness is almost the same as that of an ordinary adult tiger's tail.
The base of the tail is a little thicker, about seven centimeters, but the length of the tail at the end is only about the same as a fifty-cent coin, which is enough for Wen Ruyue to pinch it in her hand and play with it with her fingers.
However, the thickness just now refers to the actual size after it gets wet. If you just look at it visually, it looks a little thicker. After all, Jing Ke is well taken care of and her tail is also furry.
Jing Ke, who was clinging to Wen Ruyue like a boneless person, didn't think there was anything wrong with his posture. Wen Ruyue, who was having fun playing with the tiger's tail, didn't think there was anything wrong with it either.
The only one who realized that something was amiss in this situation was Sect Leader Wen, but she hesitated for a long time, wanting to say something but stopping herself, and finally chose to pretend that she had seen nothing.
Baihu is indeed not young anymore, but mentally and in terms of experience, he is still a child. He probably just thinks that this posture can express intimacy, so he is so clingy.
As for his eldest disciple, the child he raised himself certainly couldn't have any bad intentions. He simply liked furry things, so he liked to touch the white tiger's tail.
That’s right!
With this belief, Sect Leader Wen watched the local Spring Festival Gala, then took out two storage bags filled with a lot of spirit stones and gave them to Wen Ruyue and Jing Ke as New Year's money.
"Thank you, Master." Wen Ruyue apologized with a smile.
"Thank you, Master Wen." Jing Ke also took the storage bag.
After thinking that he was Sect Leader Wen's senior, Jing Ke rummaged through his storage space, took out a piece of good refining material and handed it over.
"This is for you. If you want to improve the quality of your weapon, you can add some of this to it and reforge it." Jing Ke said, and after thinking for a moment, he added, "You are my junior, and this is my New Year's money for you."
"Thank you, Senior Baihu." Recognizing that it was a precious material, Sect Leader Wen did not refuse and continued to shout to people from all over the place.

What to do after New Year's Eve? Naturally, sleep under the covers.
After Wen Ruyue lifted the quilt and lay down on the bed, Jing Ke quickly came in, first wrapped his tail around one of Wen Ruyue's knees, and then hugged her tightly.
"Contractor, Happy New Year and Good night." Jing Ke chose a comfortable position and closed his eyes with satisfaction.
"Good night." Wen Ruyue said, and just like before, she and Jing Ke snuggled up to each other and closed their eyes.
However, the first night of the New Year seemed a little different from the previous ones. Not long after closing her eyes, Wen Ruyue realized something was wrong.
Wen Ruyue has always known that Jing Ke's body temperature is a little higher than hers, but is it a little too much tonight?
After opening her eyes, Wen Ruyue subconsciously pulled out her hand and placed the back of her hand against Jing Ke's forehead, feeling her body temperature.
Well, mythical beasts are supposed to be immune to all diseases, right? Could they catch a fever or a cold just because they were wearing too few clothes while watching the Spring Festival Gala?
Wen Ruyue was a little unsure, but it seemed a bit too rude to call Yu Sijin at this time and ask her relevant questions.
"Jing Ke, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Wen Ruyue asked Jing Ke in her ear, while touching her neck and other parts of her body.
It’s hot, a little hotter than usual. Could it be a belated backlash after absorbing too much spiritual energy from the secret realm?
Many guesses flashed through Wen Ruyue's mind, and a hint of anxiety could not help but appear between her eyebrows.
"Huh? Contractor, what's wrong?" Jing Ke, who was awakened, opened her eyes a little dazedly. There was a layer of mist on her usually clear and transparent amber eyes, making her look less distant.
"How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Wen Ruyue asked with concern.
"Uncomfortable?" Jing Ke tilted her head, a hint of confusion in her eyes, "No, I don't feel uncomfortable at all."
"Your forehead and other parts of your body feel hotter than usual. Is your spiritual power out of control?" Wen Ruyue was still worried.
In her eyes, Jing Ke was still a little tiger who had never grown up, so it was possible that he didn't notice anything wrong with his body at the first time.
"Huh?" Jing Ke blinked in confusion, and then furry ears popped up on her head.
Wen Ruyue took a deep breath, and the expression on her face became more serious.
Even her ears popped out uncontrollably. Something must have gone wrong with Jing Ke's body without her knowing.
"Don't move. I'll use my spiritual power to examine your body." Wen Ruyue said seriously.
Wen Ruyue, who always liked furry things, didn't even bother to touch Jing Ke's ears. She held her wrist and carefully used her spiritual power to give Jing Ke a physical examination.
But after checking carefully twice, Wen Ruyue still didn't find any problems, so she could only temporarily let go of Jing Ke's wrist and continue to ask her how she felt.
"Uncomfortable? No, not uncomfortable." Jing Ke said in a daze, hugging Wen Ruyue with his hands and feet, and rubbing her with his nose constantly, like a clingy kitten.
After feeling Jing Ke's warm breath spraying on both sides of her nostrils and smelling a very faint smell of alcohol, Wen Ruyue finally understood why the other party's body temperature had risen.
It was probably because Jing Ke, who didn't need to control her food intake, ate too much chocolate with liqueur while watching the Spring Festival Gala, which is why her body felt slightly hot and her ears popped out uncontrollably.
It turned out that his little tiger was drunk, luckily it was not a backlash of spiritual power.
Wen Ruyue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after finding the answer. After discovering that Jing Ke was even more attached to her than usual, she reached out and rubbed her ears, which felt very nice.
After touching Jing Ke's furry ears and tail for a while, Wen Ruyue couldn't help but come up with a bold idea.
Jing Ke had bitten her own ears so many times that she couldn't count them all. Could she take advantage of the little tiger being drunk and bite her ears too?
Wen Ruyue thought so and did so.
If there were a pill to regret in the world, Wen Ruyue might have swallowed it directly half an hour later and then made a different move at this moment.
What a pity, there is no if.
