Chapter 48 Flowers on the Head
"Why are you here?" Duan Chenhui was a little surprised to see the merman prince.
Sun Tu glanced at him and said nonsense: "I heard your cry for help."
Duan Chenhui: "I didn't ask for help."
"..."Sun Tu looked at He Qing.
He Qing coughed lightly and said, "I was originally out for fun with His Highness, but we got separated on the way."
Duan Chenhui looked at them and believed their lies: "This place is very dangerous and not suitable for sightseeing. Your Highness, please come back with us."
“Okay…” Sun Tu felt that he was probably threatened by Duan Chenhui. Sure enough, after he got on the spaceship, he was put under “house arrest” and was not allowed to run around. Duan Chenhui even gave it the good name of “for the sake of diplomacy between the two countries.”
Sun Tu was very angry and complained to He Qing: [Look at what he has done! And you, you have become weak, but can I eat you now? ]
He Qing recuperated on the bed: [No.]
[What are you going to do? When you go back, there will be monsters who want to eat you. It is better to keep the wealth within the family and let me have it.] Sun Tu was calculating loudly.
He Qing let him talk nonsense: [I still have the general, I want to rebuild my skills. ]
[Oh.] Sun Tu suddenly lost interest, [Then what do you want to rebuild?]
[I'm thinking.] He Qing heard a knock on the door. He said goodbye to Sun Tu and said, "Come in."
Duan Chenhui came in with food and put it on the bedside table: "Do you feel better?"
"Much better." He Qing said he felt much better and didn't even want to move a finger.
Duan Chenhui smiled and sat down: "It's porridge, do you want me to feed you?"
"... That's not necessary." He Qing picked up the bowl and ate the porridge. Halfway through, he fished out some lotus seeds from the bottom of the bowl. Is this like cures like? Thinking of this, he took another mouthful until he finished the porridge.
He has never been an ordinary person, and it turns out that ordinary people would be hungry.
After He Qing finished eating, he put down the bowl and sighed. He wanted to merge his original body into this one, and then he wouldn't have to eat anymore.
Duan Chenhui saw him finish eating and took the bowl away: "You take a rest, I still have things to do."
"Don't worry, General. I'll be fine soon." He Qing waved at him. In fact, there were still Zerg outside, and Duan Chenhui took the time to come and see him.
Duan Chenhui nodded and left. He Qing lay down for a while before getting up. He put on his clothes and walked out.
Only backup personnel and medical staff passed by in the corridor. They nodded to him when they saw him. He Qing walked all the way to the cockpit, where there was a huge screen that showed the scene outside.
He Qing took a quick look at the battle between the mechas and the Zerg. The dense flames of war flashed in every corner. He looked at Duan Chenhui who was sitting in the front and giving orders. The expression on Duan Chenhui's face was much more serious than usual.
"General, the Zerg are trying to retreat now. Should we pursue them?"
Duan Chenhui tapped the light screen and opened a small screen: "General Lin, General Li, we are chasing the Zerg in front, you attack from the left and right sides, I hope you can cooperate with me this time."
General Li did not speak. General Lin looked a little unhappy. "General Duan, what do you mean? We were late because of some problems with the spacecraft."
"We never doubted you." Duan Chenhui stared at the screen motionlessly. "But the sudden accident of the spacecraft is no small matter. It is also dereliction of duty for you not to check it thoroughly before departure."
General Li tried to smooth things over: "No one wants to do this, let's deal with the Zerg issue first."
Duan Chenhui nodded: "Let's get started, everyone get ready."
He Qing looked at the two generals and then at Duan Chenhui. The general would definitely not let this matter go and would have to investigate it thoroughly. Even if it was just an accident, the general would also clean up those people who were in the way.
He Qing looked at him for a while, and without disturbing Duan Chenhui, he turned around and walked back. Now he and Duan Chenhui were destined to be together again... and this time it couldn't be broken.
Unless one party dies.
This was the reason why he hesitated and hadn't told Duan Chenhui that he was a fairy.
After returning, He Qing flipped through the books in the space one by one to see if there was a better way. However, after several days of looking, he found nothing. He counted with his fingers, but could not figure out the fog ahead.
He Qing put the books away one by one. About a month later, the war was temporarily over and the troops set off for home.
He Qing chose an auspicious day. He took out his original body and sat cross-legged. The branches and leaves of his original body slowly wrapped around his body, and then a strong light burst out and merged into his body.
He Qing touched his chest, opened his clothes and saw a lotus mark on his chest.
“???” He didn’t have this before, wouldn’t Duan Chenhui have seen it?
He touched his head again and suddenly took out a mirror. He Qing looked into the mirror and saw a flower on top of his head. He Qing almost fainted.
Unfortunately, Duan Chenhui was knocking on the door outside: "He Qing, we have arrived at Planet X to rest, do you want to go out for a walk?"
He Qing looked around, picked up a hat and put it on his head, then ran to open the door: "General, I'm ready"
"Then let's go." Duan Chenhui looked at his hat, which was a needle-studded hat.
"Okay." He Qing put his hat on more tightly.
The two got off the spaceship, and He Qing realized that it was night outside.
They used a hovercraft to go to the city that never sleeps. The buildings on both sides of the street were rare ancient architectural complexes. Red lanterns were hung high above the streets, making it look a bit like a world of cultivation.
"Some places here have delicious midnight snacks." Duan Chenhui pulled him away.
He Qing looked around and felt a sense of familiarity: "General, you seem to be very familiar with this place?"
"Hmm..." In fact, he had been here many times. Duan Chenhui pulled down his chip glasses as he walked. He looked at the screen, and people in the group gave him bad advice.
[Brother, if you want to remarry your sister-in-law, take him on a date! ]
[Yes, yes, yes! It’s best at night, when the lights are dim and it’s very romantic. ]
[I think it's OK as long as you are thick-skinned enough! I'll ask my sister-in-law to re-register when I get back! ]
Duan Chenhui looked around and silently closed the family group. His problem now was that He Qing didn't seem to be a proactive person, and their relationship was still the same as before.
Duan Chenhui turned his head to look at He Qing, and saw that He Qing's hair was a little messy. He reached out to tidy up He Qing's ponytail and touched it. The white hair seemed like silk, which was really rare.
"Why is your hair white?" He had wanted to ask this for a long time. The black hair was probably dyed.
"...I am a mixed blood of ten tribes." He Qing thought of the mixed blood system that has been very popular recently.
Duan Chenhui smiled and said, "What about the eyes?"
He Qing paused, pointed ahead and changed the subject: "General, there are goldfish scoops ahead, let's go take a look."
Duan Chenhui did not continue to question him. The two of them came to the goldfish catching area, and Duan Chenhui swiped his card: "Catch ten times."
"Great, good luck to you two guests!" The boss gave them ten small paper fish nets.
He Qing took these obviously thin paper nets and gave five to Duan Chenhui: "Five times per person."
Duan Chenhui held it and looked down at He Qing catching goldfish. He Qing's technique was not very good, and the goldfish either broke through the net or slipped away. He looked at the hat He Qing was wearing: "Aren't you hot?" He said and took off the hat.
"..." He Qing watched the goldfish break through the net and escape again. He raised his hands to cover his head.
"..." Duan Chenhui stared at the flower above his head in shock, "What is this?" Could it be that He Qing really has the blood of a plant race?
He Qing stood up: "It's a decoration..."
"Really?" Duan Chenhui raised his eyebrows in doubt, "Then this decoration is too real." He looked at the swaying flower, which was somewhat cute.
"This is a simulation." It's actually real. He Qing put the hat back on. "I think it's a bit ostentatious." To humans, it might be exhibitionism...
"It looks pretty good." This is Duan Chenhui's real thought.
He Qing smiled and pointed at the goldfish: "I didn't catch it, General, please try, it's a test of your skills."
Duan Chenhui was successfully diverted to another topic. He squatted down, broke four nets, and finally caught a small goldfish for He Qing: "This one is golden, and looks better than the black one."
"..." He Qing suddenly felt that this sentence sounded familiar, he thought about it and finally remembered that Sun Tu once complained about his previous master who thought he was ugly because of his black skin, so he changed him into a golden one. Then he lost his master again, and then he grew legs and ran away, thinking that his master didn't know the value of his property.
He Qing was holding the goldfish bag and was a little worried: "Will there be a fight?"
"What?"
"fine."
Duan Chenhui pulled him along and walked in the crowd, saying, "There's a lantern show ahead." He took He Qing to see the lanterns, and halfway through they suddenly realized someone was following them, so he pulled He Qing along again, "There's someone."
He Qing was stunned, but he didn't feel that anyone was following him, which made him a little uncomfortable.
Duan Chenhui walked around and came to a secluded place, then turned around and looked ahead: "Who is it?"
"Hehehe, if you'd like to know what's good for you, hand over the people around you!" A few little goblins of unknown origin seemed not to know Duan Chenhui, or did not take mortals seriously. After they shouted, they rushed over to snatch people.
He Qingwei smiled and took a step back: "Come on, General."
Duan Chenhui looked back at him, ran over and knocked those people down in two or three moves, called the police, and then left with He Qing.
The goblin was still wailing in the background: "Don't let us catch you going out alone!"
He Qing shook his head and sighed. He would definitely not go out after he returned.
Duan Chenhui looked back at those people again: "They seem a little strange."
"… maybe you want to kidnap me because I look good."
Duan Chenhui looked at He Qing's face and smiled. He Qing did have the capital to say: "It's a pity that they spoiled my fun." He originally wanted to stay in a hotel, but now he had no interest in it and returned to the spaceship.
He Qing walked into his room and waved goodbye to him as usual: "Good night, General."
Duan Chenhui clenched his fist and blocked the door with his hand: "He Qing, what should we do now——"
"General! You're back! Is it fun?" The subordinates called out from behind, "General, do you want to go to the bathhouse to take a bath?"
"..." Duan Chenhui looked at them with a dark face, "No."
“…” What happened? General, did your date fail?
He Qing: "..." Does the general hate bathhouses?
"..." Duan Chenhui touched his forehead and glanced at them: "It's okay, those who want to take a shower can take a shower, and those who want to sleep can go to sleep." After he said that, he turned and went back to his room.
Duan Chenhui took a shower, sat on the bed, sighed, then lay down and closed his eyes.
