When the main character is cheated by a butterfly

A few years later, the door that had been dusty for a long time opened suddenly, and in the empty space, a young man sat alone.He seemed to be immersed in a mysterious realm, his breathing was gentle and his expression was calm.Then his eyelashes trembled, and then his eyes opened slightly, with watery brows and peach blossoms in his eyes, which is the usual characteristic of this person.Just looking at the appearance, no one can connect this handsome young man with what he has done.

After opening his eyes, the young man exhaled slightly, stood up and straightened his clothes, ready to find a place to wash up.Although there is a dust-proof formation to prevent the dust-covered mess, but after staying for so long, there will always be some psychological discomfort.

When the young man was about to go out, he found two paper cranes waiting at the door.The paper crane looked familiar, nestling obediently by the door.He couldn't help but think of the last time when he left the gate, there were also two little paper cranes waiting for him to come out, but after opening the paper cranes, the sound came from a certain brat.

Once recalling this incident, the young man subconsciously wants to step on it, and it will be over once and for all.

But soon, his movements paused slightly, as if he was thinking about something.In the end, he was still merciful, and raised his hand to recruit the two paper cranes.

Zhou Qiran frowned and opened the first paper crane.But the voice from the paper crane was not the boy he imagined, but the original user.

"Little friend Tianshu, I haven't been back to the Eastern Territory for a long time. After traveling for a while now, I often feel something, and I need to sit quietly to get it. My apprentice is very qualified, and he will definitely achieve something in the future, but he has not yet realized it. When we get to Jindan, I hope you will take care of me a little bit."

Zhou Qiran silently removed the paper crane and put it away.

The meaning of the ring grandfather Luo Yuanbai is very simple, that is, his idea of ​​going to the mountains and going to the countryside... Ah, no, it is because after re-experience the customs and customs, he often has epiphanies and often meditates.Although it is not considered a retreat, and the time required is much shorter than that of a retreat, after all, there is still a small period of time to isolate external information.

Regarding his explanation, Zhou Qiran only curled his lips slightly.

Now Qiu Boyu is not in the state of having nothing like before.He has cultivation, connections, and things like fame.Zhou Qiran dared to believe that if something happened to Qiu Boyu, Luo Yuanbai would be able to catch up with the scene even if he was not there.Otherwise, the protagonist takes care of himself to save the whole situation.

Thinking of Qiu Boyu whose enthusiasm might have faded, Zhou Qiran's eyes darkened.

When I was retreating, that kid already had a tendency to avoid me, and the next step is to gradually go to a stranger, or maybe I messed with him and was brushed as a boss.

Zhou Qiran was quite prepared for these things to happen, he was in a state where he didn't care if it didn't happen, and he wouldn't be surprised if it happened.

Although he is still a young man, Qiu Boyu's ability has greatly surpassed the state shown in his original book.For example, Xiaoqiu was told by the system to secretly clean up public opinion, as well as the planning and arrangement during the scuffle.The sophisticated strategic layout, as well as the precise and unique vision, made Zhou Qiran sigh the power of the protagonist's halo.

The protagonist in the original book is not a fool in the first place.It can be said that based on what Zhou Qiran observed before, apart from being a bit silly when facing himself, Qiu Boyu is a person who knows what he needs and what he doesn't need in other states.In the original book, he may call some characters brothers and share troubles with some characters on a certain map, but he never slows down his upgrade because of others.As soon as a new map is opened, go out alone.Once you find something you are interested in, you can start out alone, bring at most one or two teammates who can obviously benefit, and then form a team with others in the instance.

Zhou Qiran appreciates the character of the protagonist. Although he is not absolutely rational and calm, he knows what he wants, so his goals are clear and he does not procrastinate.Qiu Boyu also showed such characteristics in his youth.

But the more it was like this, the more it contrasted with the defenseless chasing after him foolishly.

That IQ has reached the point where it is sold at a discounted price, and even the system can't tell whether he can keep it for a long time.Because in the original book, the protagonist can switch the nature of his own cultivation skills at any time, immortal cultivation, demon cultivation, and demon cultivation, whichever one he wants to cut, and the demonization ball maintains a half-demonization state, which is completely the existence of a cub mentality. It shouldn't have appeared.

It was only because of Zhou Qiran's appearance that disrupted all developments, and a demonized ball without IQ appeared.

Obviously when he saw Qiu Boyu, he wanted to beat him up so much, but thinking of his defenseless state, Zhou Qiran was always unable to do so.

Probably because seeing the kid's defenseless appearance, he would feel guilty when he did it.

Zhou Qiran comforted himself in this way.

Little did he know that he was much softer than he imagined.

Since the first paper crane was Luo Yuanbai's paper crane, the second one must be something he wanted to explain.With this in mind, Zhou Qiran opened the second paper crane.

"I miss you so much."

In a short sentence, the person who spoke seemed to be a young man, and there was a bit of a childish voice in his tone, but the words he said did not feel childish at all, but were full of affection. He threw it to the ground with a look of disgust on his face.The paper crane that didn't want to be quiet was not because the sound transmission was over, but because the person who recorded it deliberately kept quiet for a while.So after being thrown to the ground by Zhou Qiran, the sound transmission was not damaged and then played the following words.

"I hope Zhenjun can see a stronger me."

What the hell is this.

Zhou Qiran snorted softly, and stepped on it without hesitation.

There is no beginning and no end, this stupid ball has lost his mind!

At the same time, on the other side, the young man who was meditating opened his eyes.

As if something good had happened to him, he smiled slightly, got up and was about to go out.

As soon as the door was opened, a monk saw him and immediately greeted him, "Ah! Master Qiu!"

As soon as the sound came out, the eyes of other people in the inn also followed.Many people had fiery eyes, looking at Qiu Boyu like a wolf staring at fat, wishing they could rush up and scrape him clean.But when they thought of the combat power of this seemingly insignificant alchemist, they could only sigh slightly.

What can an alchemist do so well!

"Master, where are you going today?" the monk asked curiously.

It's because Qiu Boyu's emotions are too obvious, he can't wait to go out as if he has encountered some great event.

"It's okay." Qiu Boyu said, "I just want to go for another adventure."

"Again?" the monk asked in surprise, and immediately got a warning look from Qiu Boyu, and quickly restrained himself, "Then please be more careful. After all..."

"I have entered there more times than all of you present." Qiu Boyu said calmly, stopping all the monks wanted to say next.He went on to say, "Old rules, if I am unlucky and get kicked out, I'll trouble everyone to search."

"No problem, no problem!" The monk who had been talking to Zhou Qiran seemed to be the leader. As soon as he opened his mouth, other monks quickly responded.Seeing this, a little girl jumped over and said with a smile, "Master Qiu is going to challenge again?"

"That's natural."

After explaining, Qiu Boyu quickly left for the old place.All the monks looked at each other.

Dangui Town is a small town, and there are no precious and rare resources around it. However, it has been accumulated and developed for many years. Although the sparrow is small and complete, it still has what it should have.Such small towns are quite common in the world of comprehension, and most of them are gathered next to various secret places, providing lodging and material replenishment services for treasure-hunting monks.

However, in terms of being adjacent to the secret realm, Osmanthus Town actually has certain disadvantages—because the closest to them is not a secret realm rich in resources, but a forbidden place that cannot be entered.

Forbidden area Forbidden area, as the name suggests, is a place where entry is prohibited.That place is very strange, whether it is a mortal or a monk, as long as they enter that place by mistake, they will be thrown out at least, or directly injured and thrown out at worst.Gradually, they called that place "The Impassable Land".

This strange situation also attracted many monks to challenge, but they found that there was no law in that place, as if someone had thrown a formation at random, and it had all kinds of effects, and the attack hindered the progress. Illusionary, everything.It is possible that you just got out of the wolf's claws, and then fell into the tiger's mouth, and finally pushed out by an unknown force, which is miserable.

So when a person who has been persistently challenging that "inaccessible land" appeared, almost everyone who often moves around Dangui Town wanted to see the excitement.

However, their views and feelings have never been able to affect Qiu Boyu's existence.

The former boy has grown up a bit now, his body has elongated and his facial features are spread out, and the youthfulness on his face has finally gone clean.His appearance had a good foundation when he was a teenager, but now it just made his facial features even better.

It can be said that because of his excellent appearance, Qiu Boyu has always received overt or implicit overtures from female nuns over the years, but no matter who he is facing, he has always been indifferent and never gave them any chance.

Because he is very clear that since he is a person with someone in his heart, he should naturally keep himself clean and maintain a good reputation so as not to be rejected by the other party.For this, Qiu Boyu is very conscious.

Ever since he went to the Qiongxiao faction to solve the traitor incident, and finally the master appeared on the stage to deal with the demon cultivator, Qiu Boyu felt that something was wrong.So he begged his master to take him back to the meeting place of the Yunxiao Grand Competition, but he got the news that the Yunxiao Grand Competition had ended and Zhenjun Tianshu had gone somewhere.

Although Qiu Boyu knew that it would be difficult for him to get close to Zhenjun after the Yunxiao Competition ended, he didn't expect it to happen so soon, and he couldn't help regretting his plan to keep a distance on purpose.

Obviously being able to spend more time by Zhenjun's side is profitable.

Of course, Qiu Boyu knew the importance of keeping a proper distance.If he didn't have some subtle sense of loss, in his situation, it would be difficult for him to gain a sense of presence in front of Zhenjun.So the previous action is necessary.

When Zhuo An knew that Qiu Boyu not only found out the murderer, but also protected Zhuo Yexue from being hurt by the other party, he was naturally overjoyed.After thanking Qiu Boyu for his help, he also made suggestions for Qiu Boyu's distress.

"I did hear fellow Taoist Tianshu mention that after the study of the Nine Folds Strange Rock is finished, he needs to retreat and figure it out."

Retreat!

Qiu Boyu immediately thought of the nameless cave where Zhou Qiran lived, as well as the materials in the study that he hadn't read.

Now through the sound transmission of the paper crane, he also knew that Zhou Qiran had left the customs, and hurriedly rushed to the "no place to enter."

Zhou Qiran yawned and got up from the barrel.

The wooden barrel is blessed with a heating array and a cleaning array. When soaking in the hot water at the right temperature, it is not to mention how comfortable it is.

When I bathed that silly ball before, it was a waste to destroy two of them in one breath.

【... New access... Please come back if you hear it...】

[Reconnect, listen... Please answer when you hear it. 】

[Reconnect, please answer when you hear it. 】

The sound of the system was long overdue.Lying in the water, Zhou Qiran responded softly. "System, how long has the internet been disconnected this time?"

Hearing Zhou Qiran's question, the system also knew that Zhou Qiran could hear his own voice, so he paused immediately and said:

[From the moment you started retreating, I was forcibly disconnected from the data, which took 35 minutes. 】

"..." Zhou Qiran slightly opened his eyes and said, "So short?"

【Yes. 】

"It feels really bad." Zhou Qiran said sullenly, "You may have been here for a few years after ten minutes."

Because of the timing formation, Zhou Qiran did not know the day and night like other monks after waking up from the retreat, and he had a rough grasp of how long he had been in retreat.Doing the math now, he has been in seclusion for another five years.

When he left the retreat, he felt that his emotions were a little calmer than before the retreat.

At least he won't be so angry with that silly ball that he hits people casually.

Zhou Qiran thinks that this progress is quite big.

After taking a bath, he got out of the bathtub.

The two little birds, gray one and gray two, are not in the cave at this time. Only a wise Aescinus is alive in the huge cave. Although it sounds a little empty and lonely, Zhou Qiran actually enjoys the atmosphere. .

No one else, nothing annoying, annoying.Here, only myself.

This reassures him a little.

As long as you protect it well, at least this cave is not something that is easy to lose, right?

After drying his hair and clothes, a certain Yuanying Zhenjun lay directly on the self-made recliner, ready to enjoy a lazy and comfortable life.

The system didn't make any sound, so as not to disturb Zhou Qiran's relaxation.

It's just that this kind of joy is destined not to last long, and soon Zhou Qiran's expression changed, he frowned and opened his eyes.

Someone broke into the formation around his cave, judging from the speed and route of travel, it was obviously not the kind of person who entered by mistake, but someone who seemed to have some purpose, so he was moving in a certain direction.

Who is that annoying?

Seeing this, the system also reported the data it received:

[According to the data, the ball entered the formation you set up. 】

"... Huh?" The system spoke too suddenly, Zhou Qiran never expected such an operation, "What did you say? Explain clearly?"

【…】

The system heard the words, and honestly told the detailed information.

[According to the data, the ball entered the practice formation you set up around the cave not long after you took a shower. 】

"..." The system didn't break the sentence, but Zhou Qiran still understood what she wanted to say, and the corners of his eyes felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, "How did that stupid ball come about?"

[I'm receiving the data generated during your retreat, and I haven't deciphered this part of the data yet. 】

The system couldn't explain it. After Zhou Qiran packed his clothes, he flew to the place where the formation was in the small boat he was used to.

When I first practiced the formation, I didn't think about guaranteeing my life's safety. If this kid was lucky and directly stepped on the formation that was too powerful, he would definitely add a bit of "great military exploits" to his butterfly effect.

This silly ball!

With so many warning formations set up by himself, can't he see that there is no place where he can't just walk around?

Relying on his advantage as a creator, Zhou Qiran found Naqiu Boyu with the fastest speed and relying on the positioning of the system.When he first saw it, he was still in a daze, as if he didn't react.

The young man was sitting by the tree, his hairstyle and clothes seemed to be in a mess at this moment, and his face was a bit tired, obviously because he had consumed a lot of experience in entering the formation.Zhou Qiran made a rough observation, but he didn't feel his cultivation level, it should be because he was wearing corresponding cover-up props.

Seeing Qiu Boyu now, Zhou Qiran couldn't react.His impression of Qiu Boyu is still in the youthful posture before the retreat.

Thinking about it carefully, Qiu Boyu has not yet cultivated to the golden core, and his bones are fixed, so he will naturally grow step by step along with the age of human beings.

Zhou Qiran watched for a long time, and found that Qiu Boyu seemed to be resting, and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart.

After he activated Xiaozhou's hidden formation, he modified one of the formations around Qiu Boyu, allowing it to have another function.

In the forest, a deep and hoarse old man's voice came to mind. Just by the voice alone, one can guess that this is an old man.

"Who is coming—who?"

Zhou Qiran deliberately slowed down his speaking speed. After modifying the surrounding formations to act as microphones, the effect of this trick is obviously good.At least that after Qiu Boyu heard the sudden movement, he suspected that he had fallen into a new formation, and immediately entered the battle preparation mode.

"who are you?"

Seeing that Qiu Boyu was so nervous and happy, Zhou Qiran snorted a little, and continued, "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is why you came here."

The tall and handsome young man heard this, and said in a deep voice, "Come here for what I want to do."

"What do you want to do?"

"Of course..." At this point, Qiu Boyu suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Although the voice was a bit old-fashioned, it was as if a famous old man was talking to him face to face.But the tone of voice is always intentional.And this familiar tone, this familiar feeling...

Without accurate evidence, Qiu Boyu can only be suspicious.But with doubts, his actions naturally need to be adjusted.

"Naturally for the people I love, and the knowledge that I couldn't explore before."

Zhou Qiran didn't expect that the reason for being stupid could be brought to him, so he frowned and said, "There is no one you love here, and there is no knowledge you want."

After Zhou Qiran chose an inaccessible place as his cave, because he practiced his hands, he also wanted to increase the existence of anti-theft doors to make his living place safer, so he went around his cave and laid them one by one. The formation practice unknowingly formed a zone where Zhou Qiran himself and those who knew the shortcuts well could avoid being recruited, and Qiu Boyu was not immune either.

Hearing this familiar rebuttal, Qiu Boyu immediately understood that even if Zhenjun Tianshu was not here, he should have designed this answer.How should I put it, it is very true to the style.

Moreover, it is obvious that Zhenjun did not notice the small loopholes in his words.While Qiu Boyu was thinking this way, he was also a little secretly happy.However, he immediately replied to Zhou Qiran's words. "It seems to me that there is."

"Excessive words." Zhou Qiran cursed in a low voice.Just as he was about to continue to say something, he saw that Qiu Boyu seemed to be extremely tired, and he fell back straight. "Um?"

It was too late for the system to stop it, so Zhou Qiran almost immediately put down his boat and went to investigate.Qiu Boyu's body still received Zhou Qiran's aura without hindrance.By the time Zhou Qiran's aura passed through his body for a few laps and found that there was nothing wrong, it was already too late.

Qiu Boyu opened his eyes, his pupils were dark, and looked at Zhou Qiran with a smile, "Thank you, Zhenjun, for your concern."

"..."

Zhou Qiran had a feeling that he had been tricked.

Well he was just being lied to.

The boy at the beginning has grown into an adult, without the youthful immaturity of a boy, and has a sense of stability.But when he looked at Zhou Qiran, the look in his eyes was exactly the same as when he was a boy. It seemed that his feelings for Zhou Qiran had never changed.

Of course, this is indeed true.

"Zhenjun, long time no see." Qiu Boyu said in a deep voice, there seemed to be thousands of connotations in his words.

Zhou Qiran was silent.

"I miss you so much." Qiu Boyu added another sentence, as if he felt that the sentence just now was not nasty enough.

Zhou Qiran moved his fingers.

The small flying boat in the air fell directly and landed on the body of a certain young man, making a muffled sound of hitting flesh.Qiu Boyu snorted, although he already had a cultivation level, it was quite embarrassing to come all of a sudden.

"System..." Zhou Qiran rubbed his hands, under the cover of the robe, goosebumps appeared inside.

【how? 】

The system watched the interaction between the two just now, and was also speechless for a while.These five years have passed, why can these two people get along so strangely.

"I think this kid will become mentally handicapped as he grows up." Zhou Qiran said in a voice transmission in his head.

【…】

It's just acting weird...
