Alchemist of Rebirth

Chapter 2 Crossing

Chu Huai took a lot of effort to get a lot of words out of Xu Zhao.

It's just that it took him several days to really accept and believe the information he got out of Xu Zhao's mouth.

Even if he doesn't believe it, the people and things he has come into contact with these days have completely subverted his cognition.Leaving aside the weird instruments in the ward, let’s just talk about the small rectangular box that Xu Zhao stuffed for him, which was able to talk to people thousands of miles away, which is really unbelievable.

I heard Xu Zhao say that this small box is called a "mobile phone", which sounds very appropriate, but isn't it just a small phone that you hold in your hand.If it wasn't for the lack of tools at hand, Chu Huai really wanted to take the phone apart and study the structure inside.

In addition, Chu Huai also learned a fact from Xu Zhao's mouth that shocked him-this year is already 2014.

In 2014, 400 years have passed since his time.

Although Chu Huai has no concept of dates because he has been immersed in research for many years, he still remembers clearly that just a few days before the big bang, he went out to buy daily necessities.

And in that grocery store, the Bulletin on the shelf is clearly marked 1614.

From 1614 to 2014, I didn't expect that he just closed his eyes and opened them again, and 400 years passed.

At first, he was very confused, not knowing how to live in this strange time and space and country.He also learned from Xu Zhao that the country he lives in is more than 1 kilometers away from the Kingdom of France.

And now there is no Kingdom of France, only the French Republic, referred to as France.

Unexpectedly, after experiencing an explosion, he not only left his own era, but also his hometown.

The moment he learned that he was in a strange country, Chu Huai felt extremely uneasy. He was at a loss for jumping 400 years in time and space, and now even the hometown where he grew up is gone.

On the first day when Chu Huai heard the news, he lay in a daze on the hospital bed and didn't speak for a whole day.

Fortunately, his mind is still firm. After being sad and lost for a day, he put away all his sadness and started to plan for survival.

Anyway, he was an orphan without father and mother, and his only relative was the teacher who adopted him and taught him how to be an alchemist, and the teacher had passed away in old age, so where could he not live without care?

After thinking everything through, he cheered up and began to draw up a plan to live in this world.

The first step is to improve your physical fitness.

Now this physical fitness is too poor, although it seems to be better than ordinary people, but compared with his previous body, it is not only a little bit worse.

As for his appearance, he didn't pay much attention to it, but when he woke up and saw himself in the mirror for the first time, he was still very surprised.Unexpectedly, the appearance of the new body was exactly the same as his previous appearance.

At that time, he lay down in front of the mirror and carefully checked his entire face up, down, left, and right, causing everyone who came to the toilet to cast strange glances at him.

Although he didn't care about his appearance, it was very comforting for Chu Huai not to have to put another face on his face.

Of course, the most comforting thing is that his name has not changed.

Although Chu Huai was born and raised in the Kingdom of France, he is an oriental with black hair and black eyes, and he has a very oriental name.From childhood to adulthood, Chu Huai suffered a lot of discrimination and bullying because of her skin color and hair color.

Fortunately, he was adopted by his teacher and learned the alchemy that changed his life.

Alchemy is a sacred technology that makes humans equal to gods.

This was a common perception at the time. After all, alchemists were too mysterious, and they could kill people with a single shot. Similarly, a seriously injured patient could be cured with just a pot of potion.

And it is said that as long as there is the Philosopher's Stone, the alchemist can even live forever, and can turn stones into gold, and turn broken copper into gold, so that he will have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.

As for the world's views on alchemists, Chu Huai certainly knew that although there were some misunderstandings, they were generally correct, and alchemists were such heaven-defying existences.

It's just that to achieve such a heaven-defying situation, there is a prerequisite, and that is to successfully refine the Philosopher's Stone.

It can be said that without the Philosopher's Stone, an alchemist is just a senior pharmacist, at most he can prolong his life, but when it comes to immortality, it is impossible.

But even if there is no Philosopher's Stone, alchemist itself is a profession that people look up to.

Chu Huai has been an alchemist for a long time. Although his appearance is no longer young, but because of the help of potions, his body is still strong and his life span is continuously extending.

He is the only alchemist who has reached such a peak among contemporary alchemists, and he has also become a mysterious senior in the eyes of everyone.

Chu Huai is not good at dealing with people. Apart from experiments, he is still an experiment. He hides in his basement all day long. Except for the replenishment of supplies once every three months, it is difficult to see his people during the rest of the time.

He has a withdrawn personality, with pride and self-esteem in his bones. When he keeps his face cold and silent, he will inevitably give people a sense of arrogance, and even a little bit of arrogance that looks down on the world can be seen from his eyes.

In fact, it is not to blame for Chu Huai's high profile, because in his eyes, the world is like ants that can be crushed to death, and he can cause heavy casualties as long as he throws out a little potion.

In this way, it is really not easy to make him rest assured or focus on other people, after all, no one will care about an ant or a bug. ...

After staying in the hospital for a few days, Chu Huai was finally allowed to leave the hospital.

Although he has not recovered his memory, his injuries are almost healed, and Xu Zhao has no reason to keep him in the hospital, and the hospital expenses for the past few days alone are astonishing. Going to the street to beg.

On the day Chu Huai was discharged from the hospital, Xu Zhao specially borrowed a Xiali from someone. Looking at the iron monster with four wheels in front of him, Chu Huai’s face was a little stiff, and then he looked at the pedestrians coming and going at the gate of the hospital and the scenery on the street. , he sighed deeply.

The last extravagant hope deep in my heart was also extinguished.

He really came 400 years later, not dreaming, nor did Xu Zhao unite a group of people to lie to him.

He carefully climbed into the passenger seat, with surprise and admiration hidden in his eyes, Xu Zhao glanced at him, and said lightly, "Put on your seat belt."

Chu Huai froze for a moment, he didn't know what a "seat belt" was, so he just sat in the passenger seat.

"Dying, it's really troublesome." Xu Zhao saw that he hadn't moved for a long time, and plucked his hair irritably, leaned over, and helped Chu Huai fasten the seat belt, then stepped on the accelerator and rushed home.

Chu Huai froze in his seat, looking at the fast-moving scene outside the window. It was his first time riding in a car, and he suddenly felt dizzy and felt like vomiting. His face turned pale involuntarily.

When he arrived at the destination, when the Chuhuai door opened, he vomited all over the floor with a wow.

Xu Zhao's face turned green. Fortunately, Chu Huai still knew how to vomit out of the car. If he dared to vomit in the car, Xu Zhao would definitely give him a good look.

After Chu Huai vomited for a while, he finally regained his strength, and only then did he have the time to look around.

Unexpectedly, when he looked up, he was shocked by the dilapidated and messy buildings in front of him. He observed for a while, then turned his head and asked calmly, "I live here?"

"Nonsense." Xu Zhao glanced at him, snorted angrily, then opened the door and got out of the car, not forgetting to take Chu Huai's luggage out of the car.

"...I've always wanted to ask, what is our relationship?" Chu Huai said lightly after being silent for a while.

Although Xu Zhao's attitude towards him was not good, but from the first day he woke up in the hospital, Xu Zhao reported to the hospital every day and took care of everything for him, even the hospitalization fee was paid for him.

"It doesn't matter." A trace of anger flashed across Xu Zhao's face, he said bitterly, and then strode forward on his own.

Chu Huai frowned, and followed Xu Zhao slowly. The two entered an extremely dilapidated apartment and walked on the narrow stairway. Every step made Chu Huai suspicious. If he stepped harder, the stairs might It just collapsed.

After reaching the second floor, Xu Zhao walked towards the iron door on the right, and then took out a key from his trouser pocket to open the door.Looking at Xu Zhao's actions, Chu Huai sneered in his heart, does it matter that Xu Zhao will have the key to his own house?

But he didn't care, anyway, he was not the original Chu Huai, no matter what the relationship between Xu Zhao and the previous Chu Huai was, it was destined to become the past, and the relationship between him and Xu Zhao would only be as Xu Zhao said, no relationship.

After entering the house, it was as simple as Chu Huai thought, but the environment was clean.He looked around and nodded secretly. He could accept the bare walls, but he couldn't stand the mess. At present, this place is still in his mind.

"You have just been discharged from the hospital, so there is no need to rush to the set. The director has given you a month's long vacation, so you should recover from your illness." Xu Zhao threw Chu Huai's luggage on an old single sofa and said.

"Oh." Chu Huai responded.These days, he has already learned from Xu Zhao what is a "stand-in actor" and what is a "director", and the rest of the related professions or terms are almost made up.

When he heard that there were still ten days of vacation, he began to think in his heart that he should use this time to adjust his physique. After all, he hadn't forgotten that Xu Zhao once said that he offended the director.

He didn't want to go back to the crew later, be punished by the director again, and then enter the hospital again.
