Chapter 35 The Real World



Li Rushi opened her cat-like eyes wide and looked at the man lying in her living room, who seemed to be asleep.

This...why does it look so much like Zong Li?

Before, when Li Rushi was in the sect, he heard from his junior brother that sometimes God likes to arrange a fate for mortals that is contrary to their wishes, and it is usually accompanied by the buff of what they fear will come true.

Li Rushi felt that what his junior brother said was absolutely damn right.

How could such a man be with her now? Well, it was her fault that she came a step late. Even if she owed Zong Li this time, she should quickly repay the favor.

Li Rushi was quite strong. She picked up Zong Li and put him on the bed of the master bedroom. Zong Li had always lived in the second bedroom. Even after Li Rushi came, she did not change. She still lived in the second bedroom, but left the master bedroom unused to put some things. She loved cleanliness and cleaned the house regularly, so the master bedroom was still very clean.

Li Rushi felt the man's pulse. She only had a superficial understanding of medicine. From Zong Li's complexion, she could tell that he had a fever, and it was quite severe. The girl took a cold towel to take his temperature, and then boiled some cold water for him to drink later.

The wise words from the senior sister when taking care of her junior brothers and sisters: If you have any problems, just drink more hot water.

While boiling water, Li Rushi went to the balcony to check on the flowers she raised. It was strange. She had only been away for one day in the real world, but the flowers that had been blooming beautifully were now wilting. Perhaps they sensed his presence. The big red flowers slowly stretched out their branches, trying to climb onto her shoulders, but were ruthlessly brushed off by Li Rushi. She was now starving, and had to find time to fill her stomach. She would talk about the flowers later.

Li Rushi was a very considerate person and she knew how to live. When she left, she put all the vegetables and meat that were not durable in storage in the refrigerator. Until now, the eggs in the refrigerator are still very fresh. Li Rushi took out three eggs, a sausage and two small green vegetables, and planned to eat a big pot of instant noodles, the greatest invention of modern mankind.

When Li Rushi first came to the real world, she used to buy dried noodles to cook, but later she found that instant noodles tasted better, so she chose instant noodles instead. After all, who can resist the power of a certain chef's braised beef noodles?

People's sense of smell is not sensitive when they are sick, but flower fairies are different. Their sensory organs are distributed in every branch and bud, and are tens of millions times stronger than humans' sense of smell. Therefore, when the aroma of braised beef noodles came out, Zong Li's eyes opened.

He felt the pure spiritual power, and with the nourishment of the spiritual power, his body had recovered a little, and his stomach started to growl. He really hadn't had a good meal in a while, and when he smelled such an alluring aroma, his body subconsciously stretched out a flower branch to absorb the deliciousness.

Then Li Rushi hit him back with a chopstick.

The flower branch in front of Li Rushi was knocked, and the slender flower branch trembled and shrank, as if it had been wronged. Not only did it not move, but it also gently rubbed Li Rushi's wrist twice. Li Rushi raised her eyes from the bowl of noodles that was bigger than her face and looked along the flower branch. She saw the poor little monster sleeping in the master bedroom quietly showing a flattering smile.

After swallowing the last mouthful of noodle soup, Li Rushi went to the refrigerator to get another egg and boiled water to cook noodles.

Hmm... Zong Li is so big, one bag of noodles doesn't seem to be enough? Cook two bags for him, so that he won't be hungry and look at her with the eyes of an abandoned puppy.

While cooking noodles, Li Rushi did not forget to pull the squid, signaling it to call the owner to come and eat.

After receiving the instructions, Xiao Huazhi immediately held his head high and walked back to the master bedroom, signaling to his owner that he could come over to share the food.

Pretty Huahua shares her food with you, she must like you very much!

Hearing this, Zong Li's cheeks blushed. He was now recuperating in someone else's territory and was being taken care of by Xuan Zhi. Xuan Zhi was even willing to share food with him. What a kind person he was.

The demon world has always been a place where the strong prey on the weak. If you want to have food to eat, you have to rely entirely on yourself. If a demon is willing to share its food, it means that the demon has made a commitment to spend the rest of its life with others.

I really don’t know if humans make promises in the same way?

The quiet and dignified girl had no idea what was going on in Zong Li's mind. She moved quickly and a bowl of hot beef noodles came out of the pot. Zong Li was so hungry that he sat opposite Li Rushi and finished the bowl of noodles in just a few bites. Although his eating manners were not ugly, his appetite was still shocking.

This guy is going to eat the whole family into bankruptcy, isn’t he?

Zong Li was full, and after drinking a whole pot of water from Li Rushi, he felt somewhat full. Looking at Li Rushi who was squinting at him, Zong Li quickly said, "Xuanzhi, I... I'll take care of these, you go and have a rest, okay?"

Li Rushi naturally had no objection, but a thought suddenly flashed through her mind: the branches of the big red flowers on her balcony were exactly the same as the branches that Zong Li had just extended.

Zong Li could clearly feel that Li Rushi's eyes had become much sharper. He shrank subconsciously, which Li Rushi saw as a sign of guilt.

Zong Li wished he could squeeze himself under the table, but Li Rushi didn't say anything. She just glanced at him and went to sit in the living room. Zong Li breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand to wipe his sweaty forehead.

She...shouldn't have noticed it just now...right?

This was the first time that Zong Li cleaned up this thing, so he tried to be quick, accurate and steady. Fortunately, he was very accurate in his work, so he was very good at it even though it was his first time. After washing the dishes, he washed his hands twice, and after drying them, he stood in front of the sofa in the living room and bowed to Li Rushi: "Zong Li, thank you for saving me. I will never forget the kindness of a meal. This time I came to you because I want to discuss a cooperation with you..."

Li Rushi had expected this, so he just nodded and asked him to sit down and talk.

Zong Li thought about it, but didn't know how to start, so he simply asked, "Xuan Zhi, have you seen my brother, Zong Chen? I smelled his scent before."

Li Rushi nodded. The man named Zong Chen, dressed in red, with seductive eyes, was indeed a rare good-looking man, and he was unforgettable.

But what Zong Li said next overturned everything Li Rushi had imagined.

She originally thought that the two brothers Zong Li and Zong Chen were both gamers, and they usually competed for tasks. Zong Li was with her just to form a team. Unexpectedly, Zong Li said: "The creator of the game Wu Xin Gui Tan is Zong Chen."

Li Rushi's pupils shrank slightly. She intuitively felt that this was very important information, so she nodded and asked Zong Li to continue.

Zong Li closed his eyes and took a moment to speak, "Zong Chen and I were originally one, but due to some accidents, we split into two people. He was stimulated and intended to control humans for his own use and dominate the world. This requires a lot of power, including devouring me first, and then using huge bonuses to lure human players into taking the bait, destroying them in the game, and controlling more and more humans..."

"However, when I realized his intention, it was too late. His power was stronger than mine. He imprisoned me and waited for me to enter a weak period so that he could swallow me up. During this time, your spiritual energy helped me recover quickly. I sensed the traces of Xuanmen disciples here, so I came to find you..."

Zong Li's face was not very good. Perhaps he was very reluctant to mention this memory. However, Zong Li still finished speaking. Then Gu Qi looked at Li Rushi with courage: "Xuanzhi, are you willing to help me?"

Li Rushi was confused: "So what you mean is that you want to stop your brother, so what do you want me to do?"

Zong Li said seriously: "The rule set by Zong Chen is that as long as there are players who can pass his seven copies, even if they have completely cleared the game, I want us to complete the game together, so that Zong Chen's power will weaken, and I can take the opportunity to merge with him and destroy this game, so that those who died in the game can return home. Xuanzhi, you are a disciple of Xuanmen, a decent person, you...you will help me, right?"

At the end of his speech, Zong Li's tone was already tinged with a hint of pleading.

But Li Rushi was not so easy to talk to, especially after Zong Li said such a thing. She had many questions in her mind, such as why the two brothers split up, why Zong Chen's power weakened after completing seven copies, and what Zong Li and Zong Chen would do after they merged, etc. Therefore, she did not rashly accept Zong Li's request for help, but just looked at him deeply.

Li Rushi's mouth curled up, and it didn't look like he was rejecting him, but he didn't agree with him. "Zong Li, I need to verify what you said, but don't worry, I will definitely do the dungeon, and I will persist until I finish the game. So, let's keep working hard. I'm also looking forward to seeing the day you said, okay?"

The little flower demon Zong Li, who was not very familiar with the perfunctory speech in the human world, said: "Ah, okay, okay."

Li Rushi smiled even more happily. The girl curved her cat-like eyes and asked softly, "So, Zong Li, can you tell me what is the relationship between you and the flowers on my balcony?"

Zong Li thought about how he had tried to talk to Xuan Zhi and put the flower branch on his shoulder. His face suddenly turned red. He stammered, "Well, that... that was indeed me. Don't be angry. I... I just couldn't show up as a human at that time, so I used the flower branch to contact you first..."

Li Rushi smiled and nodded: "Okay, I understand, but it will take five days to set up a copy. It's not convenient for a girl like me to stay at home. How about you bear with it and move out, ok?"

Zong Li was instantly shocked: Was he kicked out of the house by Xuan Zhi? ? ? ?
