God's Gift

The person in the picture is Lu Keming.

Yu Youyou stood there, staring at the scroll, without moving for a long time.

Her eyes were an endless darkness, filled with incomprehensible emotions. The figure of Lu Keming in the painting was reflected in her eyes, sparkling with light.

After a long while, Yu Youyou calmly shifted her gaze and looked at Old Man Time indifferently.

Old Man Time smiled slightly and said to Youyou: "The prophecy can't wait to see you."

Yu Youyou did not answer. She lowered her eyes, as if she was thinking about something else. After a while, she said to Old Man Shiguang, "Let me see Lu Keming's original future."

She paused and added.

"What would have happened to him if I hadn't woken up."

Old Man Time fell silent, laughed again, and said with emotion: "Master has changed a lot. In the past, you were always negligent about these things and never willing to take the time to understand the past."

As Old Man Time spoke, he opened another scroll.

The person in the scroll was still Lu Keming, but he was much colder in the painting than the one Yu Youyou saw now. There was no emotion in his eyes, like a cold sculpture.

Lu Keming was surrounded by ruins. Fresh red blood flowed from his feet. Lying all around him were hairy, hideous-looking mutant human corpses.

The ground was burning with flames, the trees were charred, and white ashes, or perhaps bone ashes, were floating in the dark sky.

But Lu Keming, who was standing in the center of the picture, remained indifferent and watched everything coldly.

"Even if the master doesn't wake up, he is much tougher than an ordinary person because of the master's protection."

"His body is unusual. Dragon blood and human blood cannot coexist. However, he has obtained most of the energy from the Dark Star. That energy can suppress the dragon blood in his body and prolong his life."

"But even if it is extended, given his physical condition, he won't be able to last long."

Old Man Shiguang looked at Lu Keming in the scroll, sighed, and continued, "He was too paranoid. He devoured the Dark Star with his own strength and destroyed the entire human race."

"But after he devoured the Dark Star, the Master's blessing could no longer protect him. The power of the Dark Star eventually took over his body, and he completely became a walking corpse."

Yu Youyou looked at Lu Keming, whose eyes were empty in the painting, and turned to ask, "Is that all?"

"The prophecy itself is not here. This is all I can see." Old Man Time nodded.

"Yeah." Yu Youyou nodded casually, looked at the passage next to her that had opened again, and walked in.

During the time when Yu Youyou was talking to Old Man Shiguang, Lu Keming outside only took one step and did not notice that Yu Youyou had disappeared for a while.

Yu Youyou followed him, looking up at Lu Keming as she walked, and said with a smile: "Lu Keming, hug me."

Lu Keming paused, looked down at the puppy at his feet, a smile spread across his eyes, and he replied, "Okay."

After they left, the door of the corridor closed, and a man in black appeared out of thin air in the air above the scroll space. The black mist covered his surroundings tightly. He looked at the picture on the scroll and stayed there for a long time.

Old Man Time stood quietly, ignoring the appearance of the man in black.

When the two went out, Shen Minghua and others had been waiting outside for a long time, and Fang Ziang was complaining non-stop.

"Damn it, I knew it was the kid next door who stole my doll. He always coveted my things. I said he took it but he still refused to admit it. My mom didn't believe me and said I wronged him!"

Fang Ziang muttered to himself for a long time, and then Ye Li paid attention to him.

"You just said you didn't have a bunny doll."

Fang Ziang scratched his head awkwardly, "It was something from when I was a kid. I don't like that kind of thing anymore!"

"But Ali, what did you see?" Fang Ziang approached Ye Li and asked.

"It's nothing important." Ye Li answered casually, not showing much interest. He looked at the streets around him, waiting anxiously: "Why hasn't Yu Youyou come out yet?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Lu Keming holding Yu Youyou and walking out of the dark corridor.

Shen Minghua, who had been silent since he came out, frowned when he saw Lu Keming coming out, as if he wanted to ask something.

But because there were other people present, Shen Minghua just moved his lips and didn't ask.

Lu Keming glanced at the few people indifferently, walked in front holding Yu Youyou, and returned to Grandma Li's house.

On the second day, something big happened in Lijia Village.

For Youyou and the others, this was something that was expected.

The villagers of Lijia Village went to the city where Chen Qingqiu used to live. They happened to pass by Nancheng Middle School where he used to teach and learned why Chen Qingqiu was sent to Lijia Village to teach.

He taught a senior class at Nancheng Middle School and had an unclear relationship with a girl in the class named Zhang Shiqi.

However, not long after, Zhang Shiqi came out and accused Chen Qingqiu of molesting her, and produced a surveillance video of Chen Qingqiu following her into the alley. Although there was no surveillance video in the alley, most people already believed Zhang Shiqi.

At first Chen Qingqiu refused to admit it, but later more and more evidence was brought out, and several classmates in the class also came out to testify for Zhang Shiqi that Chen Qingqiu was always overly close to Zhang Shiqi on weekdays.

In an instant, Chen Qingqiu went from being a beloved teacher to a conscienceless beast, and everyone wanted to kill him like a rat crossing the street.

Even though the principal of Nancheng Middle School valued his talents, he was unable to resist the pressure of public opinion, and Chen Qingqiu was still expelled.

Chen Qingqiu lost his job and all his neighbors knew about his situation. He stayed in that city for three years and later had his leg broken.

In the end, Chen Qingqiu left his hometown and came to the remote area of ​​Lijia Village to teach.

Although life was hard, no one here knew about his past affairs, and he became a teacher loved by his students.

But today, the righteous villagers dug out Chen Qingqiu's evil nature and informed the neighbors door to door. Within a few hours, half of the students in the school did not go to class. Chen Qingqiu turned into a street rat again, and everyone wanted to kick him a few times.

Except Li Achou.

To the villagers, this was the first time this ugly, silent girl had a crazy outburst. She stood at the school gate, staring at every student leaving school. If anyone talked about Chen Qingqiu, she would go up and fight with them.

In the past, her parents didn't allow her to go to school and made her herd cattle and do work every day. She was much stronger than those students, and even the boys in the village couldn't beat her.

Chen Qingqiu didn't come to class, and there was only another teacher in the school. He had no choice but to notify Chen Qingqiu.

After a while, Chen Qingqiu limped to the school gate and staggered forward, pulling apart Ah Chou who was fighting with others.

The buttons of Ah Chou's washed-white clothes were torn off due to the fight, his hair was messy like a bird's nest, his face was scratched, and he stood in front of Chen Qingqiu without saying a word.

Chen Qingqiu looked at Ah Chou like this and did not scold her, nor did he use his teacher's authority to reprimand him as usual.

He also seemed to feel that he had lost that qualification.

So Chen Qingqiu just sighed, took off his coat and put it on Achou, but when the clothes fell, the classmates around him sighed and his hands were stiff for a long time.

Chen Qingqiu took a step back, away from Ah Chou, and said to her, "Let's go."

Achou followed him and turned to look fiercely at the boy who was making a fuss from behind. The look scared the boy so much that he trembled and only dared to curse after Achou left.

"Ugly."
