Chapter 41 The General's Inner Demon
After He Qing returned, he went to ask Zhang Yi and the others, but was attacked by them together.
Shi Lei: [Who asked me to join the team in the first place? ]
Zhang Yi was like a copy-paste machine: [Who asked me to join the team in the first place? ]
Shi Lei: [Young people, get up and fight. If love doesn’t work, we can pursue careers! ]
He Qing: […My marriage was originally arranged.]
Everyone: [? ! ! ! ]
Zhang Lin: [I have already said it, but you just don’t believe it.]
Chu Yan: [You are still a thousand places short, but this is not enough. ]
He Qing thought about it and felt that Chu Yan's words made more sense: [Student Chu is right, then I will continue to climb to the 1,000th place.]
People on the campus network soon discovered that the dark horse who had disappeared for a long time had finally become active again. Everyone went to watch and found that his strength had improved.
[Shit! Is this a rocket ride?!]
[Has he been training hard in real life recently? ]
[It seems like he is a really scary man…]
Duan Chenhui also saw He Qing's record on Starnet. He called the dean and said, "Let's keep a secret contestant in that friendly match."
The dean said with a smile: "Although I don't know what's going on between you two, it seems that you have reconciled for the time being?"
"We didn't have any quarrel in the first place." Duan Chenhui retorted.
The dean rolled his eyes in his office: "I know, I'll take care of it. You just don't want people to know that it was He Qing."
"Don't be too ostentatious." Duan Chenhui said again.
"Okay, okay," the dean agreed immediately. "But are you really not going to resume your post? The king has sent me private messages countless times."
"It depends on the situation." Duan Chenhui said and hung up the phone.
The dean also hung up the phone. He looked up at His Majesty the King standing in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, you heard it too. It's not that I didn't persuade him."
King Beta paced back and forth, looking so worried that he couldn't eat. "Those aliens were so happy to know that Duan Chenhui was forced to resign. Some even threatened to poach him. How despicable."
The dean stroked his chin and said with a smile: "There is no other way. Now Duan Chenhui has made a request, and you must agree to it."
The king took a few more steps and turned back to stare at the dean: "The mysterious contestant is a piece of cake. I'm afraid the Zerg will make a comeback."
"How can it be so fast?" The dean took a sip of tea. "Even if he makes a comeback, Your Majesty, you can directly issue a document to reinstate him. I believe General Duan will definitely agree."
The king stared at him with a painful expression: "Then I must offer some preferential conditions..."
The dean smiled and stood up to see the guest off: "That can't be helped, Your Majesty, please go back, I have to go to class."
"Well, I'll come back when I have time." The king walked out and got in the car, then he remembered that the dean didn't have any classes at all?! He was kicked out!

He Qing lived in Duan's house for a while and found that Duan Chenhui had dug out all the places he could hide. He started to pack his bags and prepare to leave: "General, I have to go to class."
"Where do you live now?" Duan Chenhui asked a fatal question.
He Qing's mind was also working quickly, and he blurted out: "I'm going to my deskmate's house."
Duan Chenhui looked at him and smiled: "Okay, I'll have someone take you there, and I'll take care of the lotus seed for you for the time being."
"No need, I can grow the lotus seeds myself." He Qing said immediately.
Duan Chenhui brought his fish tank over: "Don't be polite to me."
He Qing stretched out his hand to grab it back, but suddenly saw the black energy on Duan Chenhui's body, so he withdrew his hand: "Then General, please keep it for me first." He stared at the black energy on Duan Chenhui's body. This was the actual manifestation of the inner demon.
He didn't dare to act rashly again.
"Okay, then I'll find someone to take you there." Duan Chenhui seemed easy to talk to, but he held on to his lotus seeds tightly.
"Sorry for the trouble, General." He Qing looked at his lotus seeds. His lotus seeds had become hostages, and he didn't dare to refute Duan Chenhui now.
Duan Chenhui nodded and asked someone to pick up He Qing.
He Qing looked at his original body reluctantly before being taken away by the vehicle. He became worried when he stood at the door of Chu Yan's house.
Chu Yan didn't let him in: "Do you think my house is suitable for you to live in?"
"It fits well." He Qing looked up at the rusty iron gate and the one, two, three, four, five little heads behind it.
"Get lost." Chu Yan slammed the door and He Qing was turned away.
He Qing touched the Buddhist beads and said, "Amitabha, if we can't stay here, there will be other places for us to stay." He turned and went to Sun the butcher.
Sun Tu was eating barbecue leisurely in his villa: "Do you want to eat?" Sun Tu invited him to join.
He Qing looked at the grilled fish on top: "Big fish eat small fish."
"That's normal." Sun Tu looked at him for a moment and finally found a problem. "Where are your lotus seeds?"
"At the general's place." Although He Qing did not eat the barbecue, he drank some water. Then he found that his original body was being watered by Duan Chenhui... and Duan Chenhui also picked up his original body and looked at it from left to right.
He had never realized before that this kind of feeling was so obvious.
Sun Tu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You seem to have forgotten that you can sense what happened to the main body."
"I didn't feel anything when I was placed in the Holy Grail before." He Qing sighed. Fortunately, after a while Duan Chenhui finally had enough and put him down.
Sun Tu continued to eat his barbecue: "I secretly went to the research institute to take a look. The place where Black Shark found before did have spiritual stones. I sent people to see if there are any more."
"It should have been left by the seniors in the previous secret realm." He Qing thought that if he asked for the herbs, he would have no spirit stones.
Sun Tu turned and stared at him: "If I find the spirit stone, you can exchange it with the elixir. I want the Nascent Soul Pill, you must have it, right?"
"Okay." He Qing did have the Nascent Soul Pill, so he would exchange it with Sun Tu at an equal value.
He Qing stayed with Sun Tu, and Duan Chenhui often came as a guest, calling it "diplomacy", but Sun Tu always refused to see the guest.
"He's here again." Sun Tu was impatient when he heard the robot's report, "Why don't you go back with him?"
He Qing paused and said, "We are divorced. This is against etiquette."
"Is it reasonable for you to live with me? And you have money now." Sun Tu stood up and drove him out. He said to Duan Chenhui who was standing at the door, "He said he wants to buy a villa. Go and take a look for him."
He Qing wanted to refute, but Duan Chenhui said: "I know where there is a good villa."
He Qing smiled and glanced at Sun the butcher who betrayed him. Sun the butcher closed the door and sent him away. He thought the world was going downhill and he didn't even have a place to live.
So after much wandering, Duan Chenhui chose a villa which was only one street away from the general's mansion!
He Qing could see the situation over there from the window. Duan Chenhui should have had this plan long ago. He turned around and looked at Duan Chenhui who was talking to the customer service: "General, do you think this place is good?"
"I think it's good." Duan Chenhui came over, "You're not satisfied? I have an empty room next door."
The next door was closer, so He Qing had to settle for the next best option. He couldn't say he didn't want this place, as he was afraid that Duan Chenhui would turn completely evil in the next second: "Okay, then let's go here." He moved his Buddhist beads and thought, forget it, that's it.
Duan Chenhui seemed satisfied, nodded and said to the customer service: "Here it is, full payment."
"Thank you for your patronage. Please swipe your card." The customer service took out a card swipe ball.
He Qing took out his own card and swiped it, then he remembered that Duan Chenhui's gold cards were still with him. He looked at the customer service and silently took the card back, waiting for a chance to return the gold card to Duan Chenhui.
This was a villa that he could move into completely, but he still bought some daily necessities online and even prepared to cook a meal for himself as a wedding gift for the purchase of the house. Naturally, Duan Chenhui stayed.
"You can cook? Do you want me to help you?" Duan Chenhui walked into the kitchen and saw He Qing stuffing vegetables and meat into a pot, as if he wanted to make hot pot.
"No need, you're a guest." He Qing carefully added a little salt, "This is hot pot, it will be ready in a while." He should be able to cook hot pot.
"Hmm..." Duan Chenhui looked at the eighteen kinds of seasonings in his hand, nodded and walked out. It seemed that He Qing was still the king of dark cuisine.
The hot pot came out soon. Duan Chenhui smelled the sweet, spicy and sour taste and prepared himself mentally before picking up the chopsticks.
He Qing sat down, looked at the soup base and said, "...I seem to have mixed several hot pot ingredients."
"It doesn't matter, it looks colorful." Duan Chenhui carefully took a bite of the vegetable and swallowed it silently. Why do vegetables have sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty tastes?
Seeing that Duan Chenhui looked normal, He Qing took a bite of vegetables, and then his expression changed: "I think we should order takeout."
Duan Chenhui put down his chopsticks and agreed: "You are right."
He Qing had no choice but to eat takeout. After dinner, he saw Duan Chenhui out: "Good night, General."
"Good night." Duan Chenhui nodded, walked across the street and returned to his general's mansion.
He Qing glanced at the gate of the general's mansion. It felt a little different from here. He closed the door, went up to the third floor, and looked again. Although Duan Chenhui had drawn the curtains, there was light inside and he could vaguely see Duan Chenhui's shadow walking inside.
He Qing looked at it for a while and also pulled up the curtains.
But how to cure Duan Chenhui's inner demon? He found it very difficult.
*
Duan Chenhui finished reading in the room, pulled open the curtains and looked out. He saw that He Qing had also pulled up the curtains, but it was pitch black over there and he didn't know what He Qing was doing.
Maybe meditating.
He looked at it for a while, then turned back to water the lotus seed. This lotus seed was already half as big as before, and it seemed that it could indeed sprout.
Duan Chenhui picked it up curiously and turned it around in his palm. It looked white and plump and somewhat cute. He suddenly wondered what would grow out of it.
