Traveling through the world of beasts: Encyclopedia System

Huan Chuan looked like he was not in any danger, but after he had walked towards the city gate for a while, the system in his mind suddenly said, "Another tasker! But he is not from our side."

Huan Chuan didn't expect that just when he had just dealt with one tasker, another one came. When he was thinking that he only needed two more to complete the task and take them back, someone actually came to his door?

The originally excited mood suddenly collapsed the moment I stood on the city gate.

"Old Xu! Why are you here!" Huan Chuan really couldn't hide his emotions, because the person in front of him was his childhood friend, Xu Mingxu.

Xu Mingxu had his usual carefree smile on his face: "Brother Chuan! Long time no see!"

He was wearing animal skin clothes and there was no one else around him, but he appeared right in front of Huanchuan alive.

Looking at this most familiar face waving at him and greeting him, Huan Chuan's heart almost tightened, as if he was going to faint the next moment.

Why was it Lao Xu? Why did he become the tasker? How did he know I was here? How did he find me? Should I trust him?

Thoughts kept swirling in his mind, and the joy of seeing his old friend was completely replaced by these emotions.

Xu Mingxu obviously saw his embarrassment and sighed: "I won't go in. Let's find a place to talk alone?"

Huan Chuan swallowed and finally agreed.

His palms were full of cold sweat as he came down from the city wall. Ye could sense his emotions keenly: "Someone you know?"

"...Yes, he is a friend I grew up with."

Ye did not relax, because there was an unconcealable heaviness in Huanchuan's voice.

"Why are you unhappy?"

"Because I don't know whether he is an enemy or a friend." Huan Chuan held Ye's hand tightly, wanting to get some strength from him.

He once thought that he could kill all these people without hesitation, but what about his good friend? What if he also needed to complete the mission before he could go back?

After leaving the tribe, Huan Chuan felt even more empty and insecure. Ye gently placed his hand on his back to soothe him.

"Brother Chuan, I didn't expect to meet you in a place like this. Not to mention here, even before, we haven't seen each other for a few years, right?" Xu Mingxu still put his arm around Huan Chuan's shoulders as warmly as before, with the smile on his face undiminished.

Huanchuan knew this person. Although he looked heartless and a sunny and cheerful boy, he knew a lot of things clearly in his heart, so he pulled Huanchuan out to talk and did not have any hostility towards Ye.

"Also, just now up there, you seemed to have a very good relationship with this big brother. Can you introduce him to me?"

Huan Chuan did not relax at all and laughed as well: "This is my...boyfriend."

In fact, they should be considered married, but he couldn't bring himself to call him husband or hubby, so he just said he was his boyfriend.

Xu Mingxu immediately jumped up in surprise: "Boyfriend!"

When the two of them were talking, they used their native language. Ye couldn't understand it, but he could hear that they were talking about him. He even puffed out his chest to make himself look more majestic.

"Yes, is this your first day in this world?" Huan Chuan asked tentatively while pretending to dislike him.

Xu Mingxu scratched his head: "That's not the case. I know this world is different from ours, but I didn't expect that Brother Chuan would get rid of being single in this world."

He looked at Ye, then leaned over to Huan Chuan's ear and whispered, "Brother Chuan, you've never been in a relationship, is this the reason?"

Huan Chuan pushed him and said, "What are you thinking about? I used to like girls!"

After the explanation, Xu Mingxu couldn't understand it any more: "Wait a minute, so he made you gay?"

Huan Chuan shook his head again: "I like him as a person, it has nothing to do with his gender."

The three of them walked around outside the city wall while chatting. At this time of year, the snow outside had begun to melt, and the sun had begun to get hot. Huan Chuan would sometimes take the children to the yard to bask in the sun.

But at this moment, cold sweat kept breaking out on his body, and he didn't know what to do.

"Brother Chuan, how did you come to this world?" After a lot of pleasantries, the topic finally turned to this world and the mission. Huan Chuan immediately became very alert.

"I got up early and choked to death on a steamed bun while eating breakfast." To be honest, Huan Chuan himself felt a little frustrated about this way of death. If possible, he hoped that no one would know about it.

But apparently the opposite happened. Xu Mingxu laughed so loudly that he almost died of laughter: "Hahahaha, Brother Chuan, you hahahaha, you choked to death on the bun, hahahahahaha!"

With his smile like this, Huanchuan's death didn't seem so sad.

"You're still laughing at me. How did you come to this world?" Huan Chuan pushed him again and knocked him to the ground.

Xu Mingxu finally laughed enough and said, "I..."

His pause made Huan Chuan's heart skip a beat, and then he continued, "I committed suicide."

Suicide? Xu Mingxu was the most praised and liked child among his friends. He was sweet-mouthed, sensible, good at studying, and handsome.

When he was in elementary and junior high school, this person was the center of everyone's attention. But the reason he came into this world was because of suicide?

"Why?" Huan Chuan's throat was choked and he couldn't continue speaking because he didn't know whether Xu Mingxu was willing to open his scars for him to see.

"…My company went bankrupt, and those who were collecting debts found my parents. My dad was so angry that he died, and my mom fell and became paralyzed." His voice was calm, as if he was talking about something insignificant, but Huan Chuan knew that it was not insignificant.

Xu Mingxu and Huan Chuan are of the same age, but the latter graduated from university earlier and started his own company.

He swallowed, not knowing how to comfort him: "...Yes, I'm sorry, I, I didn't even know about these things."

He suddenly regretted asking these questions.

Xu Mingxu shook his head: "It's not just you. I haven't told anyone. Many of our brothers are having a very chaotic life. In the end, they might even bring trouble to you."

"How can this be considered a burden? We will help if we can!"
