The completion rate of the host next door of Kuai Chuan is always rising

The half-shaped Lu Xiangcheng didn't want to continue to soak in the river to feel the temptation of earthworms, so he simply didn't change back.

In this way, he became popular all over the river in an instant, and all the big and small monsters came to visit. Fortunately, after being watched curiously for a few days, everyone gradually got used to it and continued to go about their business.

Zixun erased the memories of those crew members for him, and from then on he also began to come from the shore to find the way to Cheng from time to time, bringing him some food from time to time, and chatting with him more often.

After listening to what he said that day, Lu Xiangcheng was completely relieved of Zixun's so-called "like" for the original owner, and was more than happy to listen to his detailed introduction of this relatively unfamiliar world to him.

"I heard that you were looking for Lord River God some time ago?"

After getting Lu Xiangcheng's affirmative answer, Zixun didn't ask him why, but provided the information he knew: "It is true that the Lord River God rarely shows up, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't pay attention to this water area."

"Do you know why there are so many goblins in this river?" Zixun smiled, "It's the God of the River who is protecting him. He will raise some qualified little goblins, and he will also rescue the goblins who are killed or have just been condemned by heaven. Instead, the humans who died in the storm rarely get his care. But the goblins who may be bigger than me will not tell you this anymore, because of that incident 500 years ago."

"When you heard the previous story of Lord River God, did you feel that it was a little inconsistent?"

Lu Xiangcheng thought about it for a while: "It feels... that person's attitude is very unclear. At one moment, he felt that Lord River God couldn't give her what she wanted, and at another moment, he eloped with Lord River God."

"Yes. That's because Lord River God brought that man back forcibly. The person who brought the Taoist priest and his father is his bedside person."

...This...forced love?

"500 years ago, that man was about to escape, but he was captured by Lord River God again." Zixun shook his head, his eyes full of doubts, "I don't really understand how Lord River God is in the world. What have you learned. Love? Hate? It seems like neither."

After Zi Xun left, Lu Xiangcheng chatted with the system.

"It's really the legendary sadomasochistic love - while loving that person, while forcibly imprisoning her by his side, and hurting her clansmen."

"Actually, I don't like this kind of love. I feel that this kind of love is unequal." Lu Xiangcheng sighed, "If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. A twisted melon is not sweet."

"But for some people, twisting melons may be his goal. Whether it's sweet or not, or whether it's bitter or not, has nothing to do with him." The system continued, "But I didn't say that, it's You humans, I don't feel that way."

"Forget it, you're a system, and you really don't understand what I'm telling you." Lu Xiangcheng didn't make things difficult for him, "I have a bold guess."

"The river god might save the goblin in distress, so if I encounter something similar to last time, he will probably show up again."

"You mean..." The system hesitated, "Dive into the storm to die? Let me tell you the truth, I can't promise to leave you with a whole body. If someone didn't save you last time, even if I rescued you, I will save you." It's still dangerous if you don't violate the rules. I have to spur you, but I don't want you to take such a big risk to die."

"How do you know if you don't try?"

--------

That night, it rained cats and dogs.

The bottom of the river was as calm as ever.

There is a particularly secluded place, as if the water has completely dried up here, leaving an empty space for a room here.

A man in a black gown leaned against the table, tapping his fingers on the table, as if meditating on something.

"I'm afraid you're going to come out of this river again today." A clear male voice sounded in the room, with a bit of teasing, "You god is only a little better than the land. You have done a lot of things and your reputation is not good Nice to hear."

The man at the table smiled helplessly: "It's not because of you."

The man who spoke was extremely delicate, and his tone changed at this moment, which made people feel indisputable: "Then are you willing to let me bear a bad reputation? Lord River God?"

"You..." The man called the River God sighed, "I don't know who is the goblin."

"You don't need to go out this time." The God of the River pampered the hair of the people around him. "Mo Lan came to see me and said that he was in charge of this little carp, so I don't need to worry about it."

"He's a god of water, and he's free enough. Instead of patrolling droughts and floods, come here to manage a carp spirit?"

"When it comes to being a water god, no one is more conscientious than him. Other than that, if he wants to do something, even the upper heavens have to let him go."

"Did you say he likes that carp?" The man chuckled, "It turns out he will look like today."

"Who knows, I only know that ever since he discovered this carp spirit who failed to transform, he's been like—"

"The surface of the water that has been silent for many years finally has a wave."

--------

searing.

thirsty.

It hurt like a fire was burning on my body.

Even the air he breathed in was scalding, burning from the nasal cavity to the lungs, and there was no other way but to hold his breath.

Lu Xiangcheng struggled subconsciously.

The man beside the bed glanced at him, but he just stroked his forehead calmly.

A little golden light appeared on the man's fingertips, like calm water waves, quickly soothing the person in pain.

His fingertips slowly slid across Lu Xiangcheng's cheek, paused for a while on the neck, and quickly picked it up.

It was already the second day when Lu Xiangcheng woke up completely.

The first thing he saw was the curtains around him, and for a moment he even thought that he had directly entered the next world.

His throat was so thirsty that it overflowed with the smell of blood. Lu Xiangcheng subconsciously got up from the bed. Just as his toes touched the ground, a piercing pain came from his feet.

"what--"

...Why didn't you say shit?

Lu Xiangcheng tried to say something else, but apart from the most basic syllables, he couldn't even utter a single word.

Why did you turn into a human so unexpectedly? Hey!

Before he had time to question the system, someone eagerly lifted the curtain away. It happened that Lu Xiangcheng was still in the posture of getting out of bed. If he hadn't leaned back reflexively, he would have kissed him straight away. maybe……

"Don't be afraid." The man probably thought he was frightened, and comforted him, "You strayed into someone else's place of calamity, and I rescued you."

Lu Xiangcheng looked up at him.

If there is only one word to describe him, then it must be "gentle as jade".

The man's appearance is not so breathtaking, but it just makes people unable to move their eyes away. When they look closely, they can see the indifference and openness between his brows and eyes.

And this man's eyes...

The corners of the eyes are slightly upturned, as if they were born with a bit of a smile. There is a stream of light in the eyes, but the flow does not move, not to look too frivolous, and even reveals a bit of clarity.

Lu Xiangcheng really didn't want to admit that he looked a bit like Zhan Pingyi.

The man didn't seem to care about his scrutiny, and continued to say: "Although you have endured part of the scourge for others, it is also beneficial. In this way, it will not be so difficult when you go through the catastrophe next time."

"My name is Mo Lan." He smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet you."
