The Card Maker of Time Travel

Moon Sea Flower is a resort owned by Yili Chamber of Commerce. It is built on a hillside near the sea and is not open to the public.

When Gu Chen and his group walked into the villa, they felt as if they had stepped into a paradise.The villa is quiet and beautiful, with gurgling hot springs.

Although it was snowing heavily outside, it seemed to be completely unaffected here.

Gu Chen decided to chant a poem impromptu: "Life is not only about living, but also poetry and distance. If you want poetry and distance, you really need fucking money."

Zeng Jiang gave him a disgusted look: "What the hell are you talking about?"

"Hot spring wine, watching the sea and listening to the waves, the sunset under the stars, life is the most pleasant." Gu Chen felt that in this environment, the whole person had to be uplifted, and he almost turned himself into a poet to write a poem facing the sea, spring is warm. The flowers are blooming.

The two Murong brothers who were left behind by Gu Chen followed up.

"It's great here, you don't need to entertain us, just let's walk around." Gu Chen has completely assumed that this is my home court.

Murong Zhuoqi sighed, and took his hand, "Let me take you there, so that you don't get lost, it's quite big here." While talking, he took Gu Chen aside, and Zeng Jiang followed suit. keep up.

Mu Li also planned to follow Zeng Jiang, but was stopped by Murong Yi who had been silent all this time.

"They soaked in the children's hot springs, so let's soak in the adults' hot springs." Murong Yi just wanted to say a very objective sentence, but for some reason, it always felt a little incomplete when he said it.

Mu Li smiled: "Okay."

The hot spring is built between the mountains and the sea, and the mountains are far away on one side, and the other side is magnificent.

Gu Chen, who was soaking in the hot spring, felt that his nature had been released, and happily hummed a song: "The boundless world is my love, and the flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills...".

Zeng Jiang, who is enjoying himself while drinking a small wine, said that this kind of tone insufficiency is simply the greatest harm to this beautiful mood.However, when he saw the other side of the hot spring pool, Murong Zhuoqi not only did not express any irritability, but also shook his head to cooperate with Gu Chen's tone-deaf singing, Zeng Jiang said that this world is really crazy.

Of course, Zeng Jiang couldn't understand, because this state is the good life in Gu Chen's mind, hot springs and wine, or beautiful women?Isn't this what life wants to enjoy.

Different from the bustle of Gu Chen's side, the hot spring on Mu Li's side is unusually quiet, so quiet that only the sound of the spring water tumbling can be heard.

Murong Yi, who wanted to say something to break the atmosphere, felt for the first time that his brain was not big enough.

"This spring is called Golden Spring, and it is the best hot spring here. After soaking, it can make the skin smooth and shiny, and if you drink it directly, it can also strengthen the stomach and liver." Murong Yi can only make some attempts to break this situation. Stiff atmosphere.

Mu Li smiled: "It's indeed a good place."

Then there was a long silence.

The hot air was dense, Murong Yi looked at Mu Li who was almost soaked in the milky white water through the hot air, his face was obviously ordinary, completely different from the person he thought of, but looking at this picture, Murong Yi However, Yi felt a little impulsive in his body.

Fearing that he would make the other party even more annoying by his reckless actions, Murong Yi closed his eyes.

Soon it was dinner time.

Gu Chen and the others quickly sat down at the dining table, and Murong Zhuoqi sent a text message to his eldest brother asking him to come for dinner.

"Let's go have dinner." Murong Yi said, looking at Mu Li who was always sitting by the hot spring.

Mu Li slowly opened her eyes, nodded, got up and put on her bathrobe.

The face soaked in the hot spring was particularly smooth and tender, Murong Yi couldn't help swallowing.He looked at that figure, and it slowly overlapped with the person in his memory.That person was also very quiet when he was in the hot spring, so he just sat quietly by the side without saying a word.

With her back turned to him, Mu Li suddenly turned her head and looked at Murong Yi who was still in the hot spring in a daze. "What's the matter with you? Not going to dinner?"

Murong Yi originally wanted to shake his head, but he didn't know where the courage came from and suddenly asked: "That day in the secret realm, were you serious?"

Mu Li frowned slightly: "Which sentence?"

"You...are Mu Li?"

After a long silence, Mu Li smiled: "Which curtain are you talking about?"

Murong Yi couldn't speak, his mouth was so sour that it seemed like a catty of sour plum was stuck in his throat.

Another long silence.

Mu Li finally spoke: "If you're talking about the one you used to know, then I used to be."

An awkward answer, but he admitted everything, the truth that Murong Yi had guessed but was unwilling to touch.

Murong Yi suddenly jumped out of the hot spring, casually wrapped in a bathrobe, and grabbed Mu Li who was about to leave.

"It's really you." Murong Yi's four words contained sadness and joy, all kinds of emotions mixed together. "Since it's you, why don't you want to tell me?"

Mu Li was silent for a long time, then turned her head. "I never denied it, and you never asked, did you?"

Murong Yi felt a little uncomfortable, the person in front of him looked completely different from what he remembered, if he hadn't felt the familiar aura from him, he might not be able to grasp the person in front of him at all, and would miss it for the rest of his life.

"Back then, what happened?" Murong Yi urgently wanted to know what happened back then.

Another long silence. "Do you know why I reappeared in front of you?" Mu Li didn't answer, but threw another question.

Murong Yi shook his head.

"You know, my feelings for you back then." Mu Li's voice was a little low.

Murong Yi shook his head, nodded again, and in the end he wanted to express something urgently but hesitated to speak.

Mu Li ignored it and continued.

"I came back this time because I have some things to investigate, and I also want to confirm my feelings by the way. Back then, I took the initiative to appear in front of you. At that time, I thought my heart would be turbulent. Maybe I would hate you, or maybe I would hate you." I can't forget you. But unexpectedly, seeing you, my heart feels calm and there are no waves. From now on, I will treat you as a passer-by in my life, so you don't have to be obsessed anymore. As I said, feelings are never owed , and you don't have to feel guilty."

Murong Yi's eyes widened a little, staring at Mu Li in a daze.There is fear in the eyes, there is affection, and there are more complex emotions that cannot be expressed.

"I used to be infatuated with you, maybe I hated you too, but it's been so long, time can really smooth out a lot of things. To me, you are just someone I used to know very well." Mu Li chuckled lightly , withdrew the hand that Murong Yi had been holding all along.

"I have a showdown with you today because I want to tell you that I have decided to treat you as an insignificant person, and please don't worry about those immature emotions when you were young." Mu Li turned and looked at Murong Yi .

If nothing happened, it is probably the best revenge.

Murong Yi lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.Just when Mu Li was about to turn around and leave, Murong Yi hugged him and buried his head in Mu Li's shoulder.

"How can you say such a thing, you were not like this before." Murong Yi said.

"People will change. People's hearts change, which is more terrifying than appearance." Mu Li's voice returned to the soft and soft voice, as if without any attack power. Only Murong Yi felt that every word was a fist The dagger was scratching his heart.

Murong Yi couldn't accept the reality of becoming an acquaintance with the person in front of him, and the person he had never forgotten for ten years. He gnawed on Mu Li's neck crazily, very hard, but he couldn't bear to bite the other person's skin. It can only go down bit by bit contradictory.When the bite reached his chest, Murong Yi finally regained consciousness. He got up and looked into the other person's eyes.

Mu Li's eyes were clear and emotionless.

Murong Yi was a little depressed, he gradually let go of the hand that had been pressing on Mu Li's body, Mu Li glanced at him, packed up her bathrobe, turned and left.

The hot spring dinner was very luxurious, and all kinds of ingredients that Gu Chen didn't call well-known were prepared with all kinds of color, fragrance and taste, which made Gu Chen want to stop.

Murong Zhuoqi was a little worried that he would be full, and reminded him not to overeat while helping him prepare vegetables.

Murong Yi didn't show up for a long time, while Mu Li was eating slowly, as if she didn't want to be disturbed.

The other three didn't think much about it, they just thought that Murong Yi was too busy with work.

After a sumptuous dinner, Gu Chen felt that the bliss of life was nothing more than this.Zeng Jiang drank some wine while soaking in the hot spring, and drank a little more during dinner. Now he seems a little drunk and is lying on the table.

"Shall I help Jiang Jiang back to the room first?" Gu Chen asked Murong Zhuoqi.

"I'll help you?"

"No need, I can support Xiao Jiang's figure."

Gu Chen half-supported Zeng Jiang back to the bedroom.

The room in the villa is very comfortable, with a large bed, a large projection screen, and a place for making tea by the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Gu Chen helped the man to the bed, thought about the tea and guessed the hangover, so he poured a cup for Zeng Jiang.

Zeng Jiang didn't answer it, as if he was a little drunk.Gu Chen just wanted to get a towel to wash Zeng Jiang's face, but Zeng Jiang grabbed him.

"Gu Chen, stay with me."

Gu Chen was suddenly shocked, because this scene was too much like the domineering president who was drunk before time travel and pulled the heroine back, "Stay with me, I'm so lonely." But looking at Zeng Jiang's childish face again, he must have thought too much.

Gu Chen sat on the edge of the bed, and Zeng Jiang put his head on his shoulder from behind.

After a long time, just when Gu Chen thought Zeng Jiang was about to fall asleep and was about to put him back down again, a muffled voice sounded from behind.

"what's your name?"

Gu Chen couldn't laugh or cry, Zeng Jiang was really drunk. "My name is Gu Chen, go to bed quickly."

"No, I want to ask, what's your real name?" Zeng Jiang's voice was very soft. If the room wasn't so quiet at the moment, Gu Chen could pretend not to hear it.

"What are you talking about? You're too drunk. I won't let you drink anymore." Gu Chen felt a strange feeling of neglect in his heart. His face was covered with tears, and the piece of clothes that Zeng Jiang lay on his shoulders just now was wet.

Gu Chen was at a loss for a while, this was the first time he saw Zeng Jiang shed tears.In his eyes, Zeng Jiang has always been a typical example of being tougher on the outside and tougher on the inside. He acts vigorously and vigorously, speaks with reason, and is not fragile at all in his heart.

But at this moment, Zeng Jiang's eyes were red, his face was flushed, and his collar was wet with tears. Gu Chen couldn't deceive himself by saying that Zeng Jiang was just drunk.

"You'd better drink some tea." Gu Chen, who didn't know how to comfort others, picked up the cup of tea he had just brewed.

Zeng Jiang stared at the teacup, but didn't take it. After a long time, he took out a card from the storage bracelet and handed it to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen was puzzled at first, why did Zeng Jiang hand him the card, he was a card maker, if he was the one who gave it to Zeng Jiang.

Gu Chen took the card and was completely stunned when he saw the card name Lu Yu.

Lu Yu?Was it the Lu Yu he was thinking of?Or is there someone named Lu Yu in this world?

"Before you came to Central Star, that is, the day Tianling came to say goodbye to us, you made this card in your sleep." Zeng Jiang said softly.

It turns out that I have been able to make character cards so early!Zhuge Liang is not the first one!Still in sleep!Gu Chen felt that the world was turning into fantasy.

But it's not right, since he made Lu Yuka, why didn't Zeng Jiang tell himself?

Gu Chen looked at Zeng Jiang with some doubts, but saw that Zeng Jiang was also looking at him, but that kind of look made Gu Chen feel a little flabbergasted, as if he was looking at another person through him.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Zeng Jiang bowed his head first.

"Until you made this card, I was willing to deceive myself that you belonged to Gu Chen, but the appearance of this card made me feel that this scene might not be able to continue."

Zeng Jiang's words shocked Gu Chen.

Yes, he and Zeng Jiang got along too harmoniously. What Zeng Jiang brought to him was something he hadn't experienced in more than [-] years, the emotion that hovered between friendship and family affection.He trusted Zeng Jiang wholeheartedly, and enjoyed the feeling of being together so much that he felt that coming here might be happier than being on earth.

However, he has never thought about it, or what he has been deliberately ignoring is that Zeng Jiang has not noticed that the core of this body has changed?

He didn't have a system that would remind the owner how to be consistent with the original owner after crossing. Although he knew the original owner's situation and didn't deliberately imitate it, he was careless like that, living more comfortably than before he crossed, but Zeng Jiang didn't realize it at all. He couldn't even lie to himself.

Perhaps he once had such a thought, but he avoided that thought too much. He enjoyed the happiness of getting along with the two of them, so he didn't want to think about the meaning behind this happiness.

So Zeng Jiang, did he know about it early on?

Gu Chen was at a loss, he was at a loss as to whether he should confess or justify that he was that Gu Chen.

Gu Chen was still racking his brains to organize his words, but Zeng Jiang spoke.

"You are not him. I knew it from the beginning. Although you are both equally stupid, trouble-loving, naive, and kind-hearted, you are still far from him."

Gu Chen felt his heart beating faster, he didn't know what Zeng Jiang's showdown with him at this moment meant.

Gu Chen felt very uneasy. The person he trusted most wholeheartedly after he came to this world told him now that he knew that he was not the original person.

"I, I didn't harm your old friend, when I came..." Gu Chen wanted to explain something.

"I know." Zeng Jiang interrupted him. "He was about to leave this world, maybe God favored me and let you come to my side."

Gu Chen froze for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

"He's worse than you. You're stupid enough, but he's even stupider than you. He doesn't even have the most basic sense of crisis." Zeng Jiang seemed to be blaming something, but Gu couldn't hold back the tears that gushed out. Chen understood how much Zeng Jiang cared about his predecessor in this body.

"We have lived together for several years. Although he is very troublesome, his existence makes me feel that I am needed. Maybe you don't understand, but there is a person who makes you feel that you have a future for life and tomorrow." Zeng Jiang It seems to be talking to myself, and it seems to be talking to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen shook his head. He wanted to say that I understand. Before he came here, his life had been in a muddle. He didn't understand the meaning of life. After time travel, he still didn't understand, but he felt at ease. Zeng Jiang buys a big house, and he wants people who treat him well to be happy. He is willing to work hard for this tiny ideal that does not conform to the values ​​of this world.And Zeng Jiang is the same, when he is needed, he can live stronger and happier.

Gu Chen didn't know how to speak.

After a long time, Zeng Jiang seemed to be drunk again, and lay down on the bed.

Gu Chen put Lu Yuka into the bracelet, put the teacup back where it was, and was about to turn off the lights and leave when he heard Zeng Jiang calling him.

"Gu Chen."

"kindness?"

"Is your name Gu Chen too?"

Gu Chen froze for a moment, and answered yes.

There was another long silence, and when Gu Chen was about to leave the room, Zeng Jiang spoke again.

"After today, are you still Gu Chen?"

"I didn't treat you as a substitute. It's not fair to you or another Gu Chen."

"I really thank you very much. It would have been a very difficult time, but I was able to survive because you were willing to act with me."

"So after tonight, let's start over."

"sorry."

Gu Chen stood in the darkness and listened quietly to Zeng Jiang's slightly choked voice.

No, you are the one who accompanied me through the most difficult time, and I should be the one who should say thank you and say sorry.

Gu Chen seemed to have a thousand words to say, but his voice was squeezed in his throat and he couldn't speak.

In the darkness, Gu Chen had already burst into tears.

Murong Zhuoqi originally wanted to pass milk to Gu Chen, but when he walked to the corridor, he found that Gu Chen had just come out of Zeng Jiang's room.

Murong Zhuoqi was about to go forward and hand the milk to the other party, but found that the other party was crying with his head down.

"What's the matter?" Murong Zhuoqi was about to ask, but the other party suddenly hugged him, and then began to cry loudly.

Murong Zhuoqi froze in place.He didn't like seeing Gu Chen cry very much, but there was nothing he could do at the moment.

Murong Zhuoqi could only raise his hand, gently caressing the other's hair, letting the other's tears wet his clothes.

When a few people were about to leave the villa the next day, Gu Chen was very embarrassed.

He looked at Zeng Jiang, who had receded from his drunkenness and looked the same as before, and didn't know how to speak.

"Don't throw away everything, have you brought everything?" Zeng Jiang taught Gu Chen in the same tone as if nothing happened last night.

Gu Chen's eyes that had been somewhat pale had once again glowed with brilliance. "Cleaned up!"

Gu Chen, Zeng Jiang and Mu Li left the resort. From last night to today, they didn't see Murong Yi again.

The process of the partner match is very fast. Each time, there are two groups of PK or random confrontation with alien beasts. There is no such complicated competition system as the resurrection round robin. Therefore, in addition to the absolute strength, the people who make it to the last ten are also very lucky. Have not encountered any master team.

Gu Chen looked at the opponents in this lottery with complicated emotions. "It's Yu Chiyu and Ling Zhizhi."

Gu Chen still remembered Yu Chiyu's lunatic style of play, and asked Murong Zhuoqi curiously how he planned to deal with this style of play.

Murong Zhuoqi didn't think about it, and said lightly: "It's enough to be crushed by absolute strength."

Gu Chen: "..."

The match between Murong Zhuoqi and Yu Chiyu almost attracted everyone from the two grades to watch.

Gu Chen is currently able to make four-star cards, while Lin Zhizhi can only make three-star cards. In terms of the strength of the card maker, Yuchiyu's side is a little weaker.

Yu Chiyu probably also knew that he couldn't compete with Murong Zhuoqi in mental strength, and now the cards were also inferior, so he didn't summon many low-level cards at once as usual, but directly summoned his own spiritual companions, A wind eagle with black feathers.

Murong Zhuoqi didn't summon his scorching dragon, the venue is not big, if he really summoned the prototype of the little black dragon, who knows if it will destroy the venue.What's more, the opponent is Yu Chiyu's spiritual companion, the type who is as nervous as his master during the battle, and will never give up until the last moment.If the little black dragon is released, the battle between these two might extend to the teaching building.

Murong Zhuoqi summoned the Qingjuyan card and the Xinkeying card, one four-star and one three-star. With Murong Zhuoqi's current strength, it is very easy to control the two low-level cards.

Fengying, Qingjuyan, and Xinkeying got entangled in the air, Yuchiyu thought for a while and summoned the lonely bird.

Feng Ying's moves were particularly fierce, forcing Qing Juyan and Xin Keying, who are good at speed, into a corner, and the situation seemed to be very unfavorable for Murong Zhuoqi.The auditorium was calling for Murong Zhuoqi to summon his companion creature of spiritual power. After all, the original body of the little black dragon was very famous, and there were not a few freshmen who wanted to see it.

Murong Zhuoqi didn't seem to be the one who would please the audience, he unexpectedly summoned a flame crab.There was a burst of confusion from the auditorium, the flame crabs could only attack on land and in the water, now that Yu Chiyu had made it clear that he was going to open up a battlefield in the air, it was really inexplicable for Murong Zhuoqi to summon the flame crabs.

"What is the Great God thinking?" The audience was puzzled.

"The Great God has always been unpredictable, how can the means of the Great God be guessed by you bastards?" This is the voice of the fans of the Great God.

Feng Ying's attack was sharp and ruthless, even the cards Murong Zhuoqi summoned could not be dodged.Coupled with the occasional opportunistic attacks of Lonely Bird, the balance of victory began to slowly tilt towards Yu Chiyu.

"Summon your Chi Huolong quickly." Yu Chiyu shouted at Murong Zhuoqi.

Murong Zhuoqi didn't pay much attention to it, but let Xin Keying grab the flame crab on the ground and fly towards Fengying.

"What is God thinking, if the flame crab attacks, the first one to be injured will definitely be the Xinke Eagle, and the wind eagle is best at wind attack, a wind knife can leave the flame crab's attack intact Let’s go back.” There was also discussion in the audience.

Gu Chen, who was sitting at the back making cards, was also very anxious. In his opinion, this was indeed not a good choice.

When everyone was eagerly watching the development, Xin Keying flew above the flying eagle with a flame crab.

Yu Chiyu smiled: "Do you want to attack from above? It's useless. Flying eagle is the most agile animal, no matter which direction it can easily deal with."

Murong Zhuoqi ignored it, and let Xin Keying fly to the top of Flying Eagle as before.Feng Ying was a little impatient, and rushed straight up to meet Xin Ke Ying.Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer, just before the two were about to collide, Xin Keying let go of the flame crab.

Fengying froze for a moment, seeing the flame crab falling towards him, Fengying couldn't dodge in time, the flame crab suddenly attacked with a series of flames, making Feiying's wings burn.

Feng Ying blows the flame crab away with a whirlwind, and Qing Yan, who has been not far away, catches the flame crab.Before Fengying could recover, Xinkeying attacked Fengying's eyes and heart. Fengying was caught off guard and was hit hard.

However, Feng Ying is a companion creature of spiritual power after all, and its level is naturally incomparable to that of ordinary magic cards. It quickly adjusted its state and faced Xinke Ying head-on.The two started fighting again.

Gu Chen noticed that Qingjuyan, who was holding a flame crab not far away, had been waiting for the right time. Yu Chiyu also noticed Qingjuyan who was about to attack, and let Dumingniao, who had been on the edge of the battle, go up to it.

But Qingjuyan suddenly launched a whirlwind attack, just when everyone thought the attack was directed at Du Mingniao, the whirlwind flew in the direction of Fengying.

This kind of attack did not cause any harm to Fengying, and Fengying didn't take it seriously, and continued to attack Xinkeying sharply.However, Gu Chen noticed that there seemed to be something inside the whirlwind. It looked at Qingjuyan who had already wrestled with the lonely bird, but found that the flame crab was gone.

Feng Ying felt that the whirlwind was approaching him, and he dodged lightly and flew aside. At this moment, a fiery figure jumped out of the whirlwind, and the flame crab rushed towards Feng Ying, probably because of the blessing of the whirlwind , the flame launched is much stronger than normal.

It was too late for Fengying to dodge, and the flame crab that fired the flame directly collided with Fengying.Fengying wailed, and hurriedly threw the flame crab aside. Qingjuyan and Xinkeying who were on the side quickly slammed into each other violently from both sides, and Fengying fell to the ground in pain.

Yu Chiyu directly conceded defeat.After all, the Wind Eagle is his mental power companion. Unlike the magic card, although the wind eagle's combat power and flexibility are much stronger than the magic card of the same level, if it is seriously injured, its own mental power will also be damaged.

Gu Chen was so addicted to seeing such a hearty battle that everyone in the audience shouted for Murong Zhuoqi.It was the first time that Gu Chen discovered that this caring man with him had such a strong and calm side.

Murong Zhuoqi withdrew her mental strength, turned her head to look at Gu Chen who was behind her, and showed a gentle smile.

This scene was captured by the camera, and it was rediscovered many years later when the two became famous all over the world. It was called the love between the kings, and it was also called the first confirmed smile of the Celestial Dynasty.
