Chapter 11 Sending Peace Lotus Roots
As for He Qing, they finally returned home safely, and Duan Chenhui finally tasted the watermelon he had been longing for.
Duan Chenhui took a bite of the melon and smiled: "It's very sweet." It was a pity that Qiao Yi's melon was not ripe.
"It really is yellow-hearted." He Qing scooped out a spoonful with a small spoon and ate it. "It's delicious."
Duan Chenhui sat on the sofa and looked at him: "You've never eaten it before?"
"No." He Qing smiled and took a bite. There really wasn't any in the ancient times over there, but the world here could already cultivate all kinds of fruits.
"Just buy it when you want to eat it next time." Duan Chenhui thought that He Qing had no pocket money.
"Okay." He Qing finished eating the watermelon and went upstairs. In order to repay his sponsor Duan Chenhui's generosity, he decided to copy the Heart Sutra overnight.
The next morning, He Qing went downstairs and saw Duan Chenhui watching the morning news as usual. He sat over and took out some papers and a ladybug recorder. "General, these are the wooden fish recordings and the Heart Sutra that we agreed on before. You can listen to them and copy them when you have time."
Duan Chenhui took it and took a look: "Thank you for your hard work." He Qing's calligraphy is elegant and neat, and indeed pleasing to the eye.
"It's not hard. There are still a dozen here." He Qing took out a half-meter-high piece of paper from the space and put it on the coffee table with a "bang". The coffee table shook three times.
Duan Chenhui's eyes jumped: "Why so many?"
"Because it is written with a brush, I wrote it relatively large, so the general can use it as calligraphy practice when copying it." He Qing smiled brightly. These were the Silent Sutra and Cultivation Technique that he had specially selected for Duan Chenhui.
He figured it out last night. Cultivating Taoism is against the will of heaven. What if a miracle happens after Duan Chenhui copies it ten thousand or one hundred million times?
Duan Chenhui's mouth twitched. He just said it casually. He didn't expect He Qing to be so serious. Since his student days, what he hated most was copying books.
"Okay, I'll copy it when I have time." Duan Chenhui touched his cuffs. He had to keep his promise.
"Come on, General." He Qing encouraged him.
"Yeah." Duan Chenhui looked at him. Even though He Qing had been copying books all night, he still looked radiant today, as bright as the well-raised lotus in his lotus pond. Perhaps He Qing would be happier if he copied the Heart Sutra ten thousand times.
Duan Chenhui pondered for a moment, how about he find a robot to cheat?
At this moment, an alarm sounded on the TV: [The following is the latest wanted criminal. If you see him, please stay away and call the police. He is suspected of harboring Zerg eggs.]
Duan Chenhui turned around and said to He Qing: "You should also be careful when you go out."
"Hmm..." He Qing stared at the TV in shock. Wasn't the wanted person his own alias?
He Qing was in a complicated mood, he was really wanted nationwide. Now Omega He Qing was married, Mr. He was targeted, and He Xingdao, who was suspected of sheltering Zerg eggs, was wanted. If Duan Chenhui knew that these people were all his, would he really put him in a small dark room for the sake of justice?
He Qing clasped his hands together and silently recited the Heart Sutra. He could no longer sit still: "General, I'm going to do my internship."
"It's still early." Duan Chenhui looked at the time.
"I want to go help earlier and get off work early." He Qing adjusted his Buddhist beads.
Looking at He Qing who suddenly became diligent, Duan Chenhui nodded: "Then go early and come back early."
"Goodbye, General." He Qing saluted Duan Chenhui with a guilty conscience, turned around and left. When he went outside, He Qing looked up at the blue sky and white clouds.
Since things have developed like this... let's just let it take its course.
*
Duan Chenhui read He Qing's Heart Sutra carefully at home. He recognized every word, but had no idea what they meant when put together. It was similar to what he imagined the Heart Sutra to be, but he could memorize it by rote.
After reciting the Heart Sutra, Duan Chenhui didn't see He Qing come back, but he received a message. He clicked it and decided to go find He Qing.
Ten minutes later, Duan Chenhui arrived at the zoo and asked the manager, "Where is He Qing?"
"He Qing is feeding the panda cubs in the small yard in front. I'll take you to find him." The administrator was very impressed with He Qing, not only because of his appearance, but also because he was Duan Chenhui's Omega.
"Thank you for your help." Duan Chenhui nodded.
The administrator took him through several small courtyards and came to the bamboo forest and shouted, "He Qing, the general is looking for you."
Duan Chenhui looked over and saw several unidentified creatures wearing black and white clothes and black and white hoods turning their heads to look at him. They looked like bank robbers.
“……”Duan Chenhui took a look and turned away.
"General! I'm here!" One of the prisoners, who was suspected to be a robber, ran towards him, looking even more terrifying in his wrinkled black and white clothes.
Duan Chenhui stopped and turned to stop him: "Stand."
He Qing took off the hood and said aggrievedly, "This is a panda's outfit. We put it on when we feed the panda cubs. We don't want them to mistake humans for their relatives."
Duan Chenhui imagined a panda suit to be furry, not a suspected bank robber. He pressed his painful forehead, walked over, pinched He Qing's face and took a look, clearing the garbled text in his mind.
"General?" He Qing was confused.
Duan Chenhui let him go: "This kind of clothes is indeed very visually impactful."
"I think it's cute." He Qing smiled, "What do you want to see me about, General?"
"We are ready to take students to practice," Duan Chenhui said. Actually, he could have mentioned this in a message, but he still came in person. "Come back in a month."
"Okay, take care, General." He Qing nodded.
"Okay, see you in a month." Duan Chenhui glanced at him again and found that there was nothing more to say, so he turned and left. After walking for a distance, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that it was He Qing who had caught up with him.
"General, I almost forgot, this is the peace lotus root." He Qing took out a small jade carving tied with a red rope from the space.
"Thank you." Duan Chenhui took it and looked at it. The jade was lotus root pink, just like the real thing.
"General, you must carry it with you to nourish it." He Qing smiled. The Peace Lotus Root contained the power of his merits, so he could return the merits to Duan Chenhui, and there was also the life-saving formation he carved.
"Nourish?" Duan Chenhui thought this adjective was quite interesting. "Will the small lotus root grow into a big lotus root?"
He Qing was stunned, almost thinking that he was exposed. He closed his eyes and clasped his hands together: "If the general prays sincerely, perhaps in the future he will harvest a lotus root as tall as a person..."
Duan Chenhui was amused by him: "Thousand-year-old lotus roots must be delicious."
"...What if it's ten thousand years?" He Qing opened his eyes in shock. The general was indeed a scary man who ate lotus roots.
Duan Chenhui hung the jade lotus root around his neck and smiled: "Then let's make soup."
"...Then I think it's better to lock it up in a small dark room. It must be a demon, and it might be poisonous..." He Qing thought about the scene of himself being pressed into the pot and made into soup and shook his head silently. The small dark room was still more adorable.
"If it's a goblin, you can consider putting it in a small dark room and stewing it slowly." Duan Chenhui followed his joke and looked at the time. "I'm leaving."
"Yeah...goodbye, General." He Qing raised his hand and shook it stiffly. The general was really a killing god. Is this human language? And slowly stewed, although he could eat all his body...it was still a ten-fold nourishing herb.
After seeing Duan Chenhui off, He Qing walked back in a daze, holding the bottle in his hand in a daze.
The instructor asked him, "Is the general going out?"
"Yeah." He Qing came back to his senses and handed over the panda bottle. Amitabha, he couldn't think about it anymore. The general was just joking.
After feeding the panda cubs, he went off work. After thinking for a while, he went next door to visit the Zhang Yi brothers, and then heard them discussing him in the corner.
Zhang Lin was lecturing: "If he asks you to go out at midnight next time, will you go out?"
Zhang Yi: "How is that possible? He is an Omega after all. If he really came out in the middle of the night, he must be having an affair. I just happened to want to steal the melon..."
Zhang Lin: "It's good that you know. I'm not afraid of the general, I'm afraid that you will fall into the gutter——"
"What kind of affair are you talking about?" He Qing reached out and patted their shoulders when he heard this.
The two of them were startled and turned their heads. Zhang Yi's face turned pale and blue: "Fuck, I was scared to death."
Zhang Lin frowned and his face became even gloomier: "You walk without making any sound?"
Zhang Yi stared at him. They were also men on the list, but they didn’t even know when He Qing came behind them?
"My steps are light." He Qing curved his eyes, "I'm here to ask you to go back to school."
Seeing that Zhang Lin looked unhappy, Zhang Yi crossed his arms and refused: "We are not going back to school today."
"What a pity. I'll meet you guys tomorrow." He Qing waved and left. After walking about ten steps, he turned back and asked the two people standing there, "Are you really not going back to school?"
"No." This time it was Zhang Lin who answered. After he said that, he pulled Zhang Yi and turned away.
He Qing failed to win over the general, so he had to go back by himself. He had a flower arrangement class in the afternoon. After arranging the flowers, he took a photo and sent it to Duan Chenhui: [Does the general look good? ]
Duan Chenhui replied after a while: [It looks good. ]
He Qing calculated the time and thought Duan Chenhui should be in the spaceship now: [General, please get busy. See you later.]
After He Qing finished speaking, he removed the light screen, took out a wooden fish, placed it in front of the vase, closed his eyes, and silently recited the Heart Sutra.
The next day, he continued to invite Zhang Lin and his brother to go to school. Zhang Lin refused again, but he persisted and went to invite them every day.
After more than half a month, Zhang Lin finally seemed unable to bear it and accepted his invitation.
On this day, everyone saw the strange scene of He Qing and the Zhang brothers going to school together.
Campus Network: [Except for his buddy, doesn’t Zhang Lin like to be alone? ? ]
[…I don’t know. Let me take another look…]
[Well, maybe he likes people to pester him? I heard that He Qing invites him every day.]
[Oh my god! The general is on a business trip! ! ]
【!!! As if I didn't say anything.】
But the matter had already spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. He Qing was privately speculated and suspected by everyone, and some people even thought that he was fickle and shameless!
He Qing liked to read gossip on forums, so he naturally knew about this. He sighed and thought that his crime was even more serious. General Duan would definitely lock him up in a small dark room when he found out.
Zhang Yi was very concerned about this matter: "Why don't we go and explain it?" They were innocent! He was afraid that He Qing would trick him.
He Qing gave him one third of the watermelon: "Keep calm, the more you wash, the darker it gets. We are just the three sworn brothers in Peach Garden."
"Hmm?" Zhang Yi always felt that he was being taken advantage of.
Zhang Lin was calmer and took a bite of watermelon: "No need to explain."
Zhang Yi ate a watermelon and looked at them, "Brother! Who said not to get too close to He Qing?"
After eating the watermelon, Zhang Yi wiped his mouth and went back to question Zhang Lin.
Zhang Lin complained as he cooked: "Because he's so annoying."
Zhang Yi thought about it and turned to look at his family sitting outside: "I think we are all brothers in distress." They are also impoverished nobles, but they still have parents.
After all, it is the Three Heroes of Peach Garden. Zhang Yi wiped his face and accepted this reality.
Zhang Lin knocked the iron pot with a spoon: "Don't be in a daze, wash this vegetable too."
"oh."
