After the strongest Alpha is reborn
Chapter 25 Night of the Comet
When they were led in, Lu Zhu's eyes seemed to pause slightly in a certain direction.
Qi Bai didn't notice Lu Xun's short-lived abnormality, but his eyes also instantly fell to the same position - a black suit with lapel collar and double-breasted buttons. Buckled under the floor illuminated by the chandelier, it reflects the faint light, and it is particularly eye-catching when hung there.
Almost without thinking, Qi Bai pointed to the dress and asked, "How much is that?"
Due to the unsatisfactory economic situation, Qi Bai has never been close to the so-called haute couture store, and it is the first time for him to go shopping in the real sense today.
He didn't know that a well-fitting suit needs to be tailored for the customer in advance and then made to order with a certain period of time, and he didn't know that this seemingly low-key store is actually a high-end luxury brand most frequented by many nobles from the five galaxies.
They only serve members, and it is impossible to accept ordinary guests like Qi Bai.It is even more impossible to sell him a finished suit tailored for others.
The clerk Hesley who brought them in, after hearing Qi Bai's question, told Qi Bai their brand philosophy and strict management of not marketing, and declined Qi Bai's consumption enthusiasm with a smile:
"Sorry, we can't sell it to non-members, and... the one you are looking at is a commemorative model customized by one of our distinguished guests in the past."
Qi Bai's clear and handsome face wrinkled when he said he wouldn't sell to non-members, and asked with displeasure, "Then why should I be your member?"
When Hesley heard Qi Bai's words, he smiled lightly at first, and then said politely and leniently:
"Sir, first of all thank you for your interest in our brand. But for this, I am very sorry. The members of our brand are all settled by invitation. In order to provide exclusive services for such special guests, therefore, the selection of membership status will be stricter."
"Then you open a store and don't sell clothes." The more Qi Bai heard it, the more he felt unbelievable. How could there be such a person who has money but doesn't earn money?
"Just to provide some other services for our guests."
"How about I give more money?" Qi Bai still didn't give up, and asked again, "Isn't it because no one is hanging around, and the commemorative money can't be turned into money, so that's okay?"
"Feel sorry."
"Wow!" Qi Bai was startled, he tugged on Lu Zhu's arm and said, "There are really things that money can't buy!"
Lu Yu smiled, he really wanted to comfort Qi Bai who was obviously hit hard, but he knew that the rules of this brand were indeed like this.
Not only are they strict in the selection of members, but more importantly, the manager behind the brand is a guy with a lot of money.
The true face of this brand is not a so-called high-end custom, it is through this superficial collapse of the galaxy brand concept, it provides daily services for customers in different fields on weekdays, but secretly connects the various power positions of the five major galaxies people.
Selling clothes is just a fake sign, Qi Bai is doomed to be lost today.
"Want it?" Lu Xun thought that Qi Bai was so persistent in wanting that dress because he wanted to wear it, but he thought that Qi Bai might not be suitable.
"It's not what I want. Wearing that kind of clothes feels restrictive, and it's so inconvenient to fight."
Lu Zhu smiled: "Then go to other places to see other things."
"But I saw it as soon as I entered the door." Qi Bai fixed his eyes on the so-called commemorative model displayed on the wall as a brand, he said,
"Inexplicably, I feel that it must be very suitable for you"
While talking, Qi Bai picked at Lu Xun's clothes with his fingers—there was a hole in it due to unknown reasons—he thought sadly: Poor Liuliu, it's been a few days since I've been with him. On such a desolate day.
"I?"
"That's right, I wanted to see what you were wearing." Qi Bai said, "And if you look at your current clothes, I suspect that there is a leak in two steps."
Lu Xun: "..."
Hesley on the side smiled: "You are very caring about your husband, and I apologize again for the particularity of our brand."
Regarding the mistake in his title, Lu Xun paused, but felt that it was not a big problem worthy of a special explanation.
On the other hand, Qi Bai didn't hear what Hesley said at all. He was so focused on putting on his clothes that he suddenly leaned into Lu Chu's ear and whispered to himself:
"How about we grab it?"
The voice was neither soft nor heavy, but it was still heard by Hesley in the closed and quiet space.
So Hesley said seriously: "Sir, we have senior security guards in our store—they are all alphas."
Qi Bai pursed his lips: "Oh, I'm just joking."
Hursley: "That apologizes for my misunderstanding."
I thought that there would be no more turning around here, but Qi Bai said with a dejected face: "Money is not everything."
Then he stood up and said he wanted to go to the bathroom, and asked Lu Zhu to wait for him, and he would leave when he came back.
As soon as Qi Bai left, Hesley also got up: "Sir, you rest here for a while, I'll excuse you first."
For Hursley, it is his quality to be polite and considerate to every customer.
On the surface, he is the manager of the store, but in fact behind him is an executive in this extremely strong network of relationships.In addition to providing some services to members on a daily basis, it is more important to complete certain tasks assigned by the manager behind it.
When there is nothing urgent, Hursley is very free.
From time to time, he would chat with the unimportant passers-by outside, and maybe he could find out some interesting things.
But these two guests didn't seem to be able to bring him any news today, so Hesley decided to let them go.
"Hold on."
Hesley was stunned when he heard Lu Zhu's words: "Huh?"
In his opinion, of the two guests, one is quiet and the other active.From the beginning to the end, he rarely heard what Lu Xun said.
He was suddenly stopped at this moment, and Hesley turned around politely and asked, "Excuse me, what else do you need?"
Lu Ju, who seemed not very interested in everything in the store just now, raised his hand and said with a smile, "Help me take it off."
Hesley showed rare impatience, but it was only fleeting. He quickly recovered his politeness and explained:
"Sir, I think I just made it very clear that we don't sell any products to non-members. Thank you and your husband for your love and affirmation of our brand. I also hope to meet your requirements, but the one you like One is really special."
As the store manager, Hesley doesn't really know who this dress commemorates, but he knows that this is an important item that is absolutely impossible to sell to the outside world, so he explained to Lu Xun,
"The one you fancy is a commemorative item specially displayed by our brand manager for his cherished old friend. There is only one piece in each store..."
Lu Ju interrupted him, got up and walked towards him, and asked, "Do you have it in other stores?"
"Ah? Yes..."
Hesley felt a little weird, he was an alpha, and he thought he was calm and composed in most situations.But for some reason, Lu Xun's approach at this time made him feel an invisible oppression.
But Lu Xun is a beta in his eyes, it shouldn't be...
But Hesley is a loyal and reliable subordinate, he will not succumb to this kind of power, so he went on to say, "That was explained by our manager himself, maybe you didn't know our brand before this, please allow me to be friendly I would like to inform you that our manager, Mr. Yao Lanyuan, is a well-known animal trainer in the five galaxies. There are countless terrifying and powerful beasts in his animal garden. Even princes and dukes need to respect Mr. Yao Lanyuan. Three points. His old friend must be a big shot—”
While talking, Lu Ju had already walked to Hesley's side.
He didn't seem to care about Hesley's in-and-out threats at all. Instead, amid Hesley's blank expression, he lowered his head and said with a bit of indifference:
"Then you have to tell Yao Lanyuan that if you don't remove the souvenirs from other stores within 24 hours, I will hang the head of his most precious fighting beast there as a souvenir."
When Qi Bai came back, he walked around the whole studio several times in a daze.
He didn't notice that Hesley, who was handsome just now, was full of embarrassment at the moment, and even completely ignored Lu Xun who was reading the newspaper on the sofa, looking for something anxiously while wandering around.
In the end, he grabbed Hesley, who was stiff all over, and asked angrily, "Where did you get our six thousand?!"
Hesley, whose brain is still down, looked at a loss: "?"
Lu Xun, who was on the sofa, sighed and stood up.
He waved to Qi Bai: "Here."
Qi Bai looked over, his mind was dazed, his jaw tilted, and then he stomped his feet vigorously: "Ah!"
The next moment, he almost shot at Lu Xun, and his whole body bumped into Lu Xun's body, grabbing him up and down in disbelief and looking up and down.
Then Qi Bai said: "Impossible, you must have switched people, we Liuliu are not so handsome!"
Lu Xun: "..."
From Qi Bai's point of view, the black suit suits Lu Chu just as he thought before.But it is precisely because it is so suitable, it has reached the point where Qi Bai dare not recognize each other.
At this time, Lu Xun's slender body was tightly wrapped, and his tall and straight figure was carefully outlined.And the clothes seemed to be tailor-made for him, repairing his silhouette to fit every inch perfectly.
Although the person is still the same person, the disobedience he felt before has been infinitely enlarged after taking off Jian Su's clothes - Qi Bai feels that Liuqian is full of strange self-contradiction. .
It seems that there is another person hidden under this bland facial features.Because they cannot describe such a temperament, they seem to be born in the wrong place.
This face is not worthy of such a person, just as such facial features should not have those golden eyes.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt dazed, Qi Bai asked in a daze: "Did you eat us up?"
Lu Xun chuckled.
Although he is using Chen Jiayan's face now, his body has been rebuilt according to the bone trend of the past.
And Yao Lanyuan obviously didn't know his dress size that well - this dress was found out of Lu Xun's wardrobe in the past.
Although his Xingdao was bombed six years ago, Lu Zhu's house in Moboheng is still there.
He could even guess Yao Lanyuan's complacent expression when he was rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
Maybe that guy will still say: "This old thing, Lu Zhu, still has today."
Withdrawing his wandering thoughts for a moment, Lu Ju said to Qi Bai who was in a daze in front of him: "The store manager said that the size of the clothes is about the same as mine. It is a kind of fate, so he kindly sold it to me. Do you think it fits?"
The store manager Hesley, who was called suddenly, suddenly felt numbness in the back of his head inadvertently, and he nodded with an apologetic smile.
And Qi Bai immediately responded to Lu Zhu, saying: "It fits so well! It fits so well, I couldn't believe it was you just now. Oh, tell me, how ashamed others would be if they saw you while wearing a suit. ?”
Others in suits Husley: "..."
I'm quite ashamed.
Qi Bai may have been immersed in Lu Zhu's fresh appearance, he circled around Lu Zhu several times, and then suddenly asked a question:
"What did you do in your hometown before?"
Lu Xun seemed to be a little confused about the word hometown, but after thinking about it, he still gave an answer: "Maybe it is, teacher."
"It's really hard to tell. Have you worn it like this before? You fit well." Qi Bai's eyes fell on the neatly tied tie at his collar, and said, "Your students must not have seen You look so handsome."
Lu Xun hooked the corner of his mouth, but did not answer the question.
And the forced smirk on Hesley's face next to him was almost unbearable.
"..."
Who is this person who seems to have a close relationship with the boss?
Should I keep laughing?Should I make them tea?
I am a mature subordinate, I should behave calmly and not embarrass the boss.But he actually recited the boss's private interstellar communication just now!Probably no more than ten people in the five major galaxies know this number, right?
Qi Bai didn't feel Hesley's strange gaze, he suddenly called Lu Chu: "Teacher."
Lu Xun hummed.
Qi Bo said: "Will your students listen to you?"
"why not?"
"You have a very good temper. I feel that you are the kind of teacher who will be bullied by students."
Lu Ju didn't expect Qi Bai's thinking to jump so fast, he said: "No, they are all good boys."
"Oh," Qi Bai pouted, "So you won't lose your temper, and no one has seen you angry?"
Lu Xun said: "Most of the time."
"Then if I provoke you, will you be angry?"
"I don't know." Lu Ju glanced at Hesley, who was covered in cold sweat, and finally prepared to let him go, and said to Qi Bai, "It's getting late, do you have anything else to prepare? We You can talk while walking."
"It's nothing, just now Wu Wuji and they called us to have dinner, and they said that they have prepared other things." Qi Bai leaned over again and asked again, "I'm just curious, what would it be like if you lost your temper? Let me take a look?"
Lu Xun smiled helplessly, first nodded his chin to Hesley as farewell, then took Qi Bai's hand and walked out.
By the way, I answered his question: "You are also a good boy, I will not be angry."
Qi Bai was stunned for a moment, stepped on Lu Zhu's shadow and staggered along, after hearing Lu Zhu's words, his expression suddenly went blank: "Huh?"
On the way they went back, Qi Bai was very quiet.
He seemed to be struggling with one question: "Am I a...good boy?"
a few minutes ago.
Yao Lanyuan, who is far away in another galaxy, suddenly received an urgent email from his subordinates.Usually he seldom checks immediately, but today he doesn't know why, he feels a little uneasy, and he reads it quickly.
Urgent Sequence Class S, Request Response
Yekanya-Hesley: 【Boss, someone came to the store today and took away the commemorative suit you specially ordered to display, as well as the rest of the same size.Let me also tell you, please be sure to take off all the souvenirs in other stores within one day.I originally intended to keep him until his identity was verified, but he... Although he is a beta, his strength is above mine, and I am powerless to stop him.He left a letter saying that as long as you read it, you will not punish me. [encrypted envelope]]
The moment Yao Lanyuan saw the email message, the hairs on Yao Lanyuan's body stood on end.
He had guessed who that person was.
The man who disappeared without a sound for six years, and the whole star thought he was dead.
Yao Lanyuan had an excited look on his face.
When he unwrapped the electronic envelope, he even made preparations to spend the night with his old friends who were far away, dig up the unsolved case from six years ago, and discuss how to deal with it.
Yao Lanyuan whispered with emotion: "You still have a conscience to contact me, hmph, now, besides me, who else can you trust—"
But the next moment, he only saw three words lying coldly in the letter:
【Don't look for me】
Yao Lanyuan's eyes darkened instantly.
After he destroyed the contents of the letter indifferently, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Well done, Lu Xun, I kind of understand why you have lived so long but have no friends."
Qi Bai seems to be particularly concerned about the description of "good boy", but he can't tell whether he likes it or hates it.
His dazed mind didn't recover until the mercenary team regrouped at night.
After seeing his teammates wearing gold and silver, not only did Qi Bai have no time to think about other things, he even lost his breathing, his eyes widened at first, and then he quickly covered them as if he saw something dirty.
Dodging to hide behind Lu Xun, Qi Bai shouted in an extremely exaggerated tone: "The demons and ghosts quickly retreat—"
On the opposite side, Xun Chao, with a big gold chain around his neck and a ha/toad mirror on his head, snorted: "Look at your poor, unseen face."
All ten fingers were covered with diamond rings, and Feng Siliu, whose hair was also dyed a bright orange red, rarely echoed Xun Chao's words:
"You don't understand our fashion."
Wu Wuji and Zhang Yanwu on the other side of the dining table had gotten used to the two nouveau riche in the shortest possible time. They sighed long and didn't respond, but after seeing Lu Zhu, they expressed emotion.
Wu Wuji seldom saw anyone who could wear a suit so well without rigidity, so he boasted: "Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles—"
Qi Bai glared at him: "You are the horse!"
Lu Xun: "..."
Nothingness and Ji: "Can you have a point when you are fucking obedient?"
After sitting down, Qi Bai asked: "I asked you to buy some things you will use next, what did you do? I mean except for the big gold chain and diamond ring."
As if asking for credit, Xun Chao immediately took out a handful of cards from his pocket, sprinkled them in front of him and said, "I went through the membership cards of the top restaurant chains in the five galaxies one by one, and I recharged them all to become super VIPs! ! From now on, you will be able to eat hot meals wherever you go!"
Feng Siliu followed closely behind, and took out a pile of cosmetics and a box of new clothes from her newly bought bag: "Brassed by the wind and the sun, and exhausted from running around, you must take care of it in time to live a nourished life."
Qi Bo: "But what you buy are all women's products."
Feng Siliu: "You can treat yourself as a woman, and you can wear my stockings as you like."
Qi Bai: "..."
Wu Wuji also gestured at the other end, causing Zhang Yanwu to push a cart of strange boxes, and said excitedly:
"All the equipment that can be used for electronic attack and defense, mecha calculations, machine maintenance, and the sea of data I have stored for Youxun for a long time are all here. Before the economy couldn't keep up, I didn't dare to buy the best. Now, I changed them all to the most advanced models, which will be used in many places in the future. These cost me more than 400 million, ha! I don’t feel bad at all, because I sold a gem for 800 million. I never thought However, one day I can have such a complete operating machine. All this is thanks to your Liuqian."
Xun Chao said: "I've decided! Even if Liuqian has no spiritual power, doesn't know mechs and can't tame beasts, he will be our teammate from now on. As long as he can make gems in the future, I will give him It was offered as a mascot."
Feng Siliu asked: "Isn't he your grandfather?"
Qi Bai: "Isn't he your grandfather?"
Wu Wuji & Zhang Yanwu: "He's not—"
Xun Chao: "Ah, ah, shut up!"
Lu Zhu, who was dragged into the topic inexplicably, remained silent politely, and did not further deepen Xun Chao's embarrassment.
For this mercenary team that seemed to be always fighting among themselves, Lu Xun found that he was almost used to it.
He has only been with this group of people for a few days, and he has seen them bicker and even quarrel several times.
But it was strange that Lu Xun had a feeling that it was difficult for them to break up.
After the waiter put all the dishes on the table, these people who hadn't eaten something good for a long time started gobbling it up instantly.
Even though they had already bought a lot of snacks to stuff their stomachs when they went shopping in the afternoon, they still looked like starving ghosts at the moment.
Facing their hungry tigers rushing for food, Lu Ju remained calm and watched.
Only when Qi Bai jumped onto the dining table in order to grab a piece of smoked ham from Xun Chao, did Lu Xun put his hand around his waist and pulled him back.
The ham was acquired by Xun Chao.
Qi Bai shouted: "Wow! Will you help him or not?"
Lu Xun pressed him on the chair and said softly, "I'll give you some more."
Xun Chao over there pouted at him triumphantly.
Feng Siliu kicked over, and directly kicked the 200-jin fat man against the wall.
Seeing this scene, Qi Bai felt that the revenge had been avenged, and he felt happy. He had a good time, and stopped robbing food, and said to Lu Zhu, "Then you order me a drink."
"I want too!" Xun Chao got up from the ground and rubbed his butt, "I want to drink, give me some wine!"
"Let me have some too."
Everyone else agreed, so Lu Zhu called the waiter and ordered drinks for them.
The mercenary team, which had always been poor, seemed to have never had such a happy life, so when the drinks were served, everyone drank heartily, as if they were drunk today.
Lu Zhu guessed that they would be able to drink themselves down within half an hour, so while they were still sober, he asked nonchalantly, "When are we leaving?"
Due to the incident that day, the dungeon suffered heavy losses. In addition, the central storage warehouse of the Star Union Bank suffered a fire, which caused certain losses and impacts on personnel and materials.Therefore, Yueye has not started to formally settle accounts with Qi Bai and his party.
But when Yueye recovered from his injury and the matter of the dungeon eased, perhaps it would be difficult for them to relax so easily.
When Lu Zhu mentioned this matter, Nihility and Ji immediately realized the importance.Several people quickly discussed the itinerary.
"Then tomorrow, the sooner the better, lest you have long nights and dreams." Wu Wuji said to Zhang Yanwu, "Don't drink too much, and be careful when you leave the country to check your drunk driving."
Zhang Yanwu paused, then put down the wine in his hand, nodded: "En."
"If you want me to say, there is nothing to be afraid of at all! Our team has powerful characters who can tear monsters with bare hands. When the people from the dungeon come after us, we will close the door and release [-]!" , said shaking his head.
"You are the dog!" Qi Bai obviously understood Xun Chao's scolding at him immediately, and poured a glass of wine down his throat. He hiccupped and added, "Although I am indeed very powerful."
With hearty energy, Xun Chao and Qi Bai described the incident to Lu Zhu vividly.
As a person who "didn't see the scene", Lu Ju expressed his regret. He nodded while listening, responding to the two people who were about to get drunk.
After drinking one cup after another, Xun Chao finally passed out, lay on the ground with a bang, and couldn't get up.
When no one sang in harmony, Qi Bai became quiet.
Just when Lu Xun thought that their carnival at the wine table was about to end, Qi Bai suddenly leaned over drunkenly, and asked in a low voice:
"Am I really that good?"
Lu Xun didn't speak.
The rest of the mercenary team didn't seem to notice them, they were all drinking and eating on their own, or studying the new gadgets they bought in the afternoon.
At this moment, Qi Bai said again: "I thought I was going to die, but in the end I didn't. I chopped up such a big blood beast...is it possible?"
"……I feel strange."
At that moment, Lu Xun almost invisibly tightened his brows.
Actually he shouldn't worry.Because it is impossible for Qi Bai to suspect him no matter what.
Now in the eyes of this group of people, he is just an ordinary person who doesn't know anything, he can pretend to be stupid and shake his head when asked.
But the next moment, Qi Bai's eyes soaked with alcohol opened wide and looked at Lu Chu, and shouted:
"I see, it's you!"
Lu Xun's eyelids tightened suddenly, and his pupils fluttered faintly.
He didn't expect that Qi Bai was so keen that he really guessed him?
Lu Zhu was dumbfounded: Sure enough, did you underestimate this person...
"You told me before that when a person is dying, he will have great power!"
"It makes sense—I think it must be the moment when I was about to die that I exploded with a strength that I didn't even know, don't you think?"
Qi Bai thought very seriously.
He didn't know if there was any scientific basis for this sentence, but Qi Bai felt that it was very reasonable to apply it to himself.
"..." Lu Xun himself felt quite ups and downs about this.
Well, he shouldn't underestimate Qi Bai, but at the same time he shouldn't overestimate the drunk guy too much.
After confirming that Qi Bai didn't suspect him, Lu Zun's slightly frowning brows quietly let go.
But Qi Bai still looked at him in a daze, his cheeks were stained with a naive blush.
Then he asked Lu Xun again:
"Did you see that video clearly just now? Am I powerful?"
Lu Xun didn't expect him to ask this question, so he couldn't help laughing.
He thought, maybe Qi Bai was drunk, so there was an expectation in his tone like an invitation.But it is also possible that Qi Bai will ask such words when he is not drunk.
Because Qi Bai is very strange, it seems that no matter what he does or what he says, it is possible.
So Lu Xun raised his hand, rubbed Qi Bai's hair, and praised him in a gentle tone: "Well, it's very powerful."
Qi Bai who got the compliment smiled.
He felt that he was really drunk, his head was a little dizzy, and his stomach was a little bloated.
So he leaned on the table and shouted: "Who is going to the toilet!"
Feng Siliu looked over: "Me."
Qi Bai: "The toilets we go to are different."
Feng Siliu repeated the old saying: "Then you will be a woman... Come and help me, I'm dizzy."
"I'm dizzy too, I want to help..." Qi Bai groaned.
Lu Xun stretched out his hand. He was about to send this bewildered little guy to the toilet for a while, when he heard Wu Wuji say: "Come on, I just went out to have a shower. Lao Zhang, you and Liuqian first Drag the dog back, I’m afraid we won’t be able to call a car if it’s late.”
The hand that was about to touch the sleeve was retracted, and Lu Ju looked at nothingness and brought out the two staggering people.
Fortunately, Qi Bai and Feng Si are not too drunk and can walk on their own, but they hang on to Wu Wuji, like two coquettish spirits, each getting stickier than the other.
Lu Xun glanced at his hand inexplicably, but quickly withdrew his gaze, and walked over to help Zhang Yanwu lift the heavy Xun Chao up.
Both of them are very strong, and it is not a problem to move a Xun dynasty.
It didn't take long for them to return to the luxury suite in the hospital before anyone else.
Zhang Yanwu seemed to be very proficient in this kind of thing. After throwing Xun Chao to the floor of one of the bedrooms, he said to Lu Zhu, "It's fine."
Xun Chao, who slept like a dead pig, let out a snoring sound immersed in a dream.
Just when Lu Xun was thinking about whether to throw a quilt for him, the door outside was opened, and Wu Wu and He Feng Siliu followed them back.The two walked to their room while stretching.
Lu Xun walked over and held Wu Wuji's shoulder.
"Huh? Six thousand, what's the matter." Wu Wuji didn't know Lu Zhu very well, so he was stopped by him suddenly, and he was stunned for a moment.
Lu Ju asked him, "Where's Qi Bai?"
"Oh, he was blowing the wind on the balcony just now, and he heard some young people talking about some kind of activity somewhere in the east."
Nothingness and not drinking much, but my head was a little dizzy, and it took me a while to get hot before I recalled it, and said,
"Oh, it seems to be the night of the comet? After all, Qibai is still a child, he got excited when he heard it, and went to play with him...Eh? Where are you going?"
Lu Xun's face darkened.
When he ran out of the hospital, he was still thinking about one question: Is there a reliable person in this mercenary team?
Qi Bai was so drunk that they let him go out to "play" alone?
Recalling the group of extremists who took the old customs as their beliefs, they wished to dedicate themselves to their "king". If there was a better sacrificer, they would definitely offer it with both hands.
And the drunk Qi Bai was obviously a piece of delicious sacrificial offering exuding fragrance, waiting to be swallowed raw.
Lu Xun's pace quickened a bit.
He thinks he needs to reassess this mercenary team: they will not break up, but they will cause trouble.
In the east of the city of Yekanya, near the ruins of the old temple site near the bay, a large bonfire was set up.
When Lu Zhu arrived, the betas participating in the comet night were already declaring their oath.
"We will use ordinary strength to save this wasteland. We are born to be their believers. Our king, after hundreds of years, still survives in every loyalty! Natural disasters no longer exist, The wreckage of the comet still reminds us that nothing is at rest."
"All betas should be proud of their own identities and flesh and blood. The martyrs used their heroism and great sacrifices to warn us not to be humble or inferior. Tonight, we are still warriors, follow our king, and start a new journey -"
They held up the tokens in their hands, and the strange and piercing ringing of the bell spread throughout the night.
Under the starlight, there was a noisy and fiery sacrificial ceremony, and every Beta looked at the sacrificial center with fascination.
Lu Xun looked around the entire sacrificial altar, over and over again, but he didn't see Qi Bai.
Lu Xun never thought that his concern for the younger generation was a habit brought out by him as a teacher. Many times he just naturally wanted to protect those weak children
But for Qi Bai, he has an extra layer of emotions.
Qi Bo is different from his past students, he is more measured than stubborn Qi Bo, smarter than Qi Bo but occasionally naive and dull.She is more cute than Qi Bai but still has an impulsive side, more reliable...
This is really hard to say.Judging from Lu Ju's current understanding of Qi Bai, Qi Bai must be an insulated person.
Therefore, Lu Zhu infinitely magnified his patience. He approached the group of people who were almost obsessed with this carnival, squeezed in and looked for the familiar face one by one.
When Lu Xun's patience was about to run out, he heard a loud voice: "Six thousand—"
Immediately, he located the source of the sound and pushed away the crowded crowd.Lu Xun didn't even notice the slight sweat oozing from his forehead.
Many betas glared at him, accompanied by some pushing and shoving, but their strength was equivalent to nothing to Lu Ju, and this could not hinder his progress.
A hand suddenly stretched out from the crowd and grabbed Lu Xun's clothes.
Lu Xun's face changed slightly, and then he saw Qi Bai's pale pink face coming out, and smiled at him ignorantly:
"You also come to see the excitement!"
Lu Zun's face was as heavy as water, and with a cold and serious expression that he rarely saw, he pulled Qi Bai out of the gap between people.
Some betas glared at him impatiently, but after receiving Lu Zhu's gaze, they all turned their heads tremblingly.
A few minutes later, Lu Ju took Qi Bai away from the sacrificial altar, and the night finally returned to the silence it should have.
They stopped under a towering ancient tree, cut off the last moonlight in its leafy shadow, leaving only a dark hazy vision.
"Wow, you're so strong." Qi Bai chuckled, obviously not sober. After Lu Zhe stopped, he bumped into Lu Zun's body, rubbed his nose, and said, "Slow down!" .”
Without saying a word, Lu Xun let go of his hand.
Qi Bai, who was a bit unsteady, swayed, and finally leaned against the tree trunk.He looked up at Lu Xun, and finally belatedly realized that something was wrong.
So Qi Bai took the initiative to provoke a topic that he thought would ease the atmosphere, saying:
"...You know, they said they wanted me to make sacrifices. How can modern people do this kind of thing? Hey, I think it's very interesting. I just want to see how they make sacrifices."
"Want to go?" Lu Xun asked calmly.
"Think!"
"What if they hurt you?"
"I'll beat them! I'm so strong, I'll tear the monsters apart!"
Lu Xun lowered his eyes and asked again: "What if they do something more egregious?"
"What's the matter?" Qi Bai blinked and said, "Are they going to kill me? But I asked, and they said that offering a sacrifice is not killing..."
Lu Xun suddenly approached, his tall body engulfed Qi Bai in a shadow deeper than the night, he raised his hand, and pressed it on Qi Bai's slender neck, pressing against him.
All Qi Bai's words were blocked in his throat.
Lu Xun called him: "Qi Bai."
"……Well?"
"That's not where you should go." Lu Zhu's expression was still very light, and Qi Bai, who was so light that he was dizzy, couldn't understand it at all.In order for Qi Bai to understand this
Qi Bai didn't notice Lu Xun's short-lived abnormality, but his eyes also instantly fell to the same position - a black suit with lapel collar and double-breasted buttons. Buckled under the floor illuminated by the chandelier, it reflects the faint light, and it is particularly eye-catching when hung there.
Almost without thinking, Qi Bai pointed to the dress and asked, "How much is that?"
Due to the unsatisfactory economic situation, Qi Bai has never been close to the so-called haute couture store, and it is the first time for him to go shopping in the real sense today.
He didn't know that a well-fitting suit needs to be tailored for the customer in advance and then made to order with a certain period of time, and he didn't know that this seemingly low-key store is actually a high-end luxury brand most frequented by many nobles from the five galaxies.
They only serve members, and it is impossible to accept ordinary guests like Qi Bai.It is even more impossible to sell him a finished suit tailored for others.
The clerk Hesley who brought them in, after hearing Qi Bai's question, told Qi Bai their brand philosophy and strict management of not marketing, and declined Qi Bai's consumption enthusiasm with a smile:
"Sorry, we can't sell it to non-members, and... the one you are looking at is a commemorative model customized by one of our distinguished guests in the past."
Qi Bai's clear and handsome face wrinkled when he said he wouldn't sell to non-members, and asked with displeasure, "Then why should I be your member?"
When Hesley heard Qi Bai's words, he smiled lightly at first, and then said politely and leniently:
"Sir, first of all thank you for your interest in our brand. But for this, I am very sorry. The members of our brand are all settled by invitation. In order to provide exclusive services for such special guests, therefore, the selection of membership status will be stricter."
"Then you open a store and don't sell clothes." The more Qi Bai heard it, the more he felt unbelievable. How could there be such a person who has money but doesn't earn money?
"Just to provide some other services for our guests."
"How about I give more money?" Qi Bai still didn't give up, and asked again, "Isn't it because no one is hanging around, and the commemorative money can't be turned into money, so that's okay?"
"Feel sorry."
"Wow!" Qi Bai was startled, he tugged on Lu Zhu's arm and said, "There are really things that money can't buy!"
Lu Yu smiled, he really wanted to comfort Qi Bai who was obviously hit hard, but he knew that the rules of this brand were indeed like this.
Not only are they strict in the selection of members, but more importantly, the manager behind the brand is a guy with a lot of money.
The true face of this brand is not a so-called high-end custom, it is through this superficial collapse of the galaxy brand concept, it provides daily services for customers in different fields on weekdays, but secretly connects the various power positions of the five major galaxies people.
Selling clothes is just a fake sign, Qi Bai is doomed to be lost today.
"Want it?" Lu Xun thought that Qi Bai was so persistent in wanting that dress because he wanted to wear it, but he thought that Qi Bai might not be suitable.
"It's not what I want. Wearing that kind of clothes feels restrictive, and it's so inconvenient to fight."
Lu Zhu smiled: "Then go to other places to see other things."
"But I saw it as soon as I entered the door." Qi Bai fixed his eyes on the so-called commemorative model displayed on the wall as a brand, he said,
"Inexplicably, I feel that it must be very suitable for you"
While talking, Qi Bai picked at Lu Xun's clothes with his fingers—there was a hole in it due to unknown reasons—he thought sadly: Poor Liuliu, it's been a few days since I've been with him. On such a desolate day.
"I?"
"That's right, I wanted to see what you were wearing." Qi Bai said, "And if you look at your current clothes, I suspect that there is a leak in two steps."
Lu Xun: "..."
Hesley on the side smiled: "You are very caring about your husband, and I apologize again for the particularity of our brand."
Regarding the mistake in his title, Lu Xun paused, but felt that it was not a big problem worthy of a special explanation.
On the other hand, Qi Bai didn't hear what Hesley said at all. He was so focused on putting on his clothes that he suddenly leaned into Lu Chu's ear and whispered to himself:
"How about we grab it?"
The voice was neither soft nor heavy, but it was still heard by Hesley in the closed and quiet space.
So Hesley said seriously: "Sir, we have senior security guards in our store—they are all alphas."
Qi Bai pursed his lips: "Oh, I'm just joking."
Hursley: "That apologizes for my misunderstanding."
I thought that there would be no more turning around here, but Qi Bai said with a dejected face: "Money is not everything."
Then he stood up and said he wanted to go to the bathroom, and asked Lu Zhu to wait for him, and he would leave when he came back.
As soon as Qi Bai left, Hesley also got up: "Sir, you rest here for a while, I'll excuse you first."
For Hursley, it is his quality to be polite and considerate to every customer.
On the surface, he is the manager of the store, but in fact behind him is an executive in this extremely strong network of relationships.In addition to providing some services to members on a daily basis, it is more important to complete certain tasks assigned by the manager behind it.
When there is nothing urgent, Hursley is very free.
From time to time, he would chat with the unimportant passers-by outside, and maybe he could find out some interesting things.
But these two guests didn't seem to be able to bring him any news today, so Hesley decided to let them go.
"Hold on."
Hesley was stunned when he heard Lu Zhu's words: "Huh?"
In his opinion, of the two guests, one is quiet and the other active.From the beginning to the end, he rarely heard what Lu Xun said.
He was suddenly stopped at this moment, and Hesley turned around politely and asked, "Excuse me, what else do you need?"
Lu Ju, who seemed not very interested in everything in the store just now, raised his hand and said with a smile, "Help me take it off."
Hesley showed rare impatience, but it was only fleeting. He quickly recovered his politeness and explained:
"Sir, I think I just made it very clear that we don't sell any products to non-members. Thank you and your husband for your love and affirmation of our brand. I also hope to meet your requirements, but the one you like One is really special."
As the store manager, Hesley doesn't really know who this dress commemorates, but he knows that this is an important item that is absolutely impossible to sell to the outside world, so he explained to Lu Xun,
"The one you fancy is a commemorative item specially displayed by our brand manager for his cherished old friend. There is only one piece in each store..."
Lu Ju interrupted him, got up and walked towards him, and asked, "Do you have it in other stores?"
"Ah? Yes..."
Hesley felt a little weird, he was an alpha, and he thought he was calm and composed in most situations.But for some reason, Lu Xun's approach at this time made him feel an invisible oppression.
But Lu Xun is a beta in his eyes, it shouldn't be...
But Hesley is a loyal and reliable subordinate, he will not succumb to this kind of power, so he went on to say, "That was explained by our manager himself, maybe you didn't know our brand before this, please allow me to be friendly I would like to inform you that our manager, Mr. Yao Lanyuan, is a well-known animal trainer in the five galaxies. There are countless terrifying and powerful beasts in his animal garden. Even princes and dukes need to respect Mr. Yao Lanyuan. Three points. His old friend must be a big shot—”
While talking, Lu Ju had already walked to Hesley's side.
He didn't seem to care about Hesley's in-and-out threats at all. Instead, amid Hesley's blank expression, he lowered his head and said with a bit of indifference:
"Then you have to tell Yao Lanyuan that if you don't remove the souvenirs from other stores within 24 hours, I will hang the head of his most precious fighting beast there as a souvenir."
When Qi Bai came back, he walked around the whole studio several times in a daze.
He didn't notice that Hesley, who was handsome just now, was full of embarrassment at the moment, and even completely ignored Lu Xun who was reading the newspaper on the sofa, looking for something anxiously while wandering around.
In the end, he grabbed Hesley, who was stiff all over, and asked angrily, "Where did you get our six thousand?!"
Hesley, whose brain is still down, looked at a loss: "?"
Lu Xun, who was on the sofa, sighed and stood up.
He waved to Qi Bai: "Here."
Qi Bai looked over, his mind was dazed, his jaw tilted, and then he stomped his feet vigorously: "Ah!"
The next moment, he almost shot at Lu Xun, and his whole body bumped into Lu Xun's body, grabbing him up and down in disbelief and looking up and down.
Then Qi Bai said: "Impossible, you must have switched people, we Liuliu are not so handsome!"
Lu Xun: "..."
From Qi Bai's point of view, the black suit suits Lu Chu just as he thought before.But it is precisely because it is so suitable, it has reached the point where Qi Bai dare not recognize each other.
At this time, Lu Xun's slender body was tightly wrapped, and his tall and straight figure was carefully outlined.And the clothes seemed to be tailor-made for him, repairing his silhouette to fit every inch perfectly.
Although the person is still the same person, the disobedience he felt before has been infinitely enlarged after taking off Jian Su's clothes - Qi Bai feels that Liuqian is full of strange self-contradiction. .
It seems that there is another person hidden under this bland facial features.Because they cannot describe such a temperament, they seem to be born in the wrong place.
This face is not worthy of such a person, just as such facial features should not have those golden eyes.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt dazed, Qi Bai asked in a daze: "Did you eat us up?"
Lu Xun chuckled.
Although he is using Chen Jiayan's face now, his body has been rebuilt according to the bone trend of the past.
And Yao Lanyuan obviously didn't know his dress size that well - this dress was found out of Lu Xun's wardrobe in the past.
Although his Xingdao was bombed six years ago, Lu Zhu's house in Moboheng is still there.
He could even guess Yao Lanyuan's complacent expression when he was rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
Maybe that guy will still say: "This old thing, Lu Zhu, still has today."
Withdrawing his wandering thoughts for a moment, Lu Ju said to Qi Bai who was in a daze in front of him: "The store manager said that the size of the clothes is about the same as mine. It is a kind of fate, so he kindly sold it to me. Do you think it fits?"
The store manager Hesley, who was called suddenly, suddenly felt numbness in the back of his head inadvertently, and he nodded with an apologetic smile.
And Qi Bai immediately responded to Lu Zhu, saying: "It fits so well! It fits so well, I couldn't believe it was you just now. Oh, tell me, how ashamed others would be if they saw you while wearing a suit. ?”
Others in suits Husley: "..."
I'm quite ashamed.
Qi Bai may have been immersed in Lu Zhu's fresh appearance, he circled around Lu Zhu several times, and then suddenly asked a question:
"What did you do in your hometown before?"
Lu Xun seemed to be a little confused about the word hometown, but after thinking about it, he still gave an answer: "Maybe it is, teacher."
"It's really hard to tell. Have you worn it like this before? You fit well." Qi Bai's eyes fell on the neatly tied tie at his collar, and said, "Your students must not have seen You look so handsome."
Lu Xun hooked the corner of his mouth, but did not answer the question.
And the forced smirk on Hesley's face next to him was almost unbearable.
"..."
Who is this person who seems to have a close relationship with the boss?
Should I keep laughing?Should I make them tea?
I am a mature subordinate, I should behave calmly and not embarrass the boss.But he actually recited the boss's private interstellar communication just now!Probably no more than ten people in the five major galaxies know this number, right?
Qi Bai didn't feel Hesley's strange gaze, he suddenly called Lu Chu: "Teacher."
Lu Xun hummed.
Qi Bo said: "Will your students listen to you?"
"why not?"
"You have a very good temper. I feel that you are the kind of teacher who will be bullied by students."
Lu Ju didn't expect Qi Bai's thinking to jump so fast, he said: "No, they are all good boys."
"Oh," Qi Bai pouted, "So you won't lose your temper, and no one has seen you angry?"
Lu Xun said: "Most of the time."
"Then if I provoke you, will you be angry?"
"I don't know." Lu Ju glanced at Hesley, who was covered in cold sweat, and finally prepared to let him go, and said to Qi Bai, "It's getting late, do you have anything else to prepare? We You can talk while walking."
"It's nothing, just now Wu Wuji and they called us to have dinner, and they said that they have prepared other things." Qi Bai leaned over again and asked again, "I'm just curious, what would it be like if you lost your temper? Let me take a look?"
Lu Xun smiled helplessly, first nodded his chin to Hesley as farewell, then took Qi Bai's hand and walked out.
By the way, I answered his question: "You are also a good boy, I will not be angry."
Qi Bai was stunned for a moment, stepped on Lu Zhu's shadow and staggered along, after hearing Lu Zhu's words, his expression suddenly went blank: "Huh?"
On the way they went back, Qi Bai was very quiet.
He seemed to be struggling with one question: "Am I a...good boy?"
a few minutes ago.
Yao Lanyuan, who is far away in another galaxy, suddenly received an urgent email from his subordinates.Usually he seldom checks immediately, but today he doesn't know why, he feels a little uneasy, and he reads it quickly.
Urgent Sequence Class S, Request Response
Yekanya-Hesley: 【Boss, someone came to the store today and took away the commemorative suit you specially ordered to display, as well as the rest of the same size.Let me also tell you, please be sure to take off all the souvenirs in other stores within one day.I originally intended to keep him until his identity was verified, but he... Although he is a beta, his strength is above mine, and I am powerless to stop him.He left a letter saying that as long as you read it, you will not punish me. [encrypted envelope]]
The moment Yao Lanyuan saw the email message, the hairs on Yao Lanyuan's body stood on end.
He had guessed who that person was.
The man who disappeared without a sound for six years, and the whole star thought he was dead.
Yao Lanyuan had an excited look on his face.
When he unwrapped the electronic envelope, he even made preparations to spend the night with his old friends who were far away, dig up the unsolved case from six years ago, and discuss how to deal with it.
Yao Lanyuan whispered with emotion: "You still have a conscience to contact me, hmph, now, besides me, who else can you trust—"
But the next moment, he only saw three words lying coldly in the letter:
【Don't look for me】
Yao Lanyuan's eyes darkened instantly.
After he destroyed the contents of the letter indifferently, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Well done, Lu Xun, I kind of understand why you have lived so long but have no friends."
Qi Bai seems to be particularly concerned about the description of "good boy", but he can't tell whether he likes it or hates it.
His dazed mind didn't recover until the mercenary team regrouped at night.
After seeing his teammates wearing gold and silver, not only did Qi Bai have no time to think about other things, he even lost his breathing, his eyes widened at first, and then he quickly covered them as if he saw something dirty.
Dodging to hide behind Lu Xun, Qi Bai shouted in an extremely exaggerated tone: "The demons and ghosts quickly retreat—"
On the opposite side, Xun Chao, with a big gold chain around his neck and a ha/toad mirror on his head, snorted: "Look at your poor, unseen face."
All ten fingers were covered with diamond rings, and Feng Siliu, whose hair was also dyed a bright orange red, rarely echoed Xun Chao's words:
"You don't understand our fashion."
Wu Wuji and Zhang Yanwu on the other side of the dining table had gotten used to the two nouveau riche in the shortest possible time. They sighed long and didn't respond, but after seeing Lu Zhu, they expressed emotion.
Wu Wuji seldom saw anyone who could wear a suit so well without rigidity, so he boasted: "Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles—"
Qi Bai glared at him: "You are the horse!"
Lu Xun: "..."
Nothingness and Ji: "Can you have a point when you are fucking obedient?"
After sitting down, Qi Bai asked: "I asked you to buy some things you will use next, what did you do? I mean except for the big gold chain and diamond ring."
As if asking for credit, Xun Chao immediately took out a handful of cards from his pocket, sprinkled them in front of him and said, "I went through the membership cards of the top restaurant chains in the five galaxies one by one, and I recharged them all to become super VIPs! ! From now on, you will be able to eat hot meals wherever you go!"
Feng Siliu followed closely behind, and took out a pile of cosmetics and a box of new clothes from her newly bought bag: "Brassed by the wind and the sun, and exhausted from running around, you must take care of it in time to live a nourished life."
Qi Bo: "But what you buy are all women's products."
Feng Siliu: "You can treat yourself as a woman, and you can wear my stockings as you like."
Qi Bai: "..."
Wu Wuji also gestured at the other end, causing Zhang Yanwu to push a cart of strange boxes, and said excitedly:
"All the equipment that can be used for electronic attack and defense, mecha calculations, machine maintenance, and the sea of data I have stored for Youxun for a long time are all here. Before the economy couldn't keep up, I didn't dare to buy the best. Now, I changed them all to the most advanced models, which will be used in many places in the future. These cost me more than 400 million, ha! I don’t feel bad at all, because I sold a gem for 800 million. I never thought However, one day I can have such a complete operating machine. All this is thanks to your Liuqian."
Xun Chao said: "I've decided! Even if Liuqian has no spiritual power, doesn't know mechs and can't tame beasts, he will be our teammate from now on. As long as he can make gems in the future, I will give him It was offered as a mascot."
Feng Siliu asked: "Isn't he your grandfather?"
Qi Bai: "Isn't he your grandfather?"
Wu Wuji & Zhang Yanwu: "He's not—"
Xun Chao: "Ah, ah, shut up!"
Lu Zhu, who was dragged into the topic inexplicably, remained silent politely, and did not further deepen Xun Chao's embarrassment.
For this mercenary team that seemed to be always fighting among themselves, Lu Xun found that he was almost used to it.
He has only been with this group of people for a few days, and he has seen them bicker and even quarrel several times.
But it was strange that Lu Xun had a feeling that it was difficult for them to break up.
After the waiter put all the dishes on the table, these people who hadn't eaten something good for a long time started gobbling it up instantly.
Even though they had already bought a lot of snacks to stuff their stomachs when they went shopping in the afternoon, they still looked like starving ghosts at the moment.
Facing their hungry tigers rushing for food, Lu Ju remained calm and watched.
Only when Qi Bai jumped onto the dining table in order to grab a piece of smoked ham from Xun Chao, did Lu Xun put his hand around his waist and pulled him back.
The ham was acquired by Xun Chao.
Qi Bai shouted: "Wow! Will you help him or not?"
Lu Xun pressed him on the chair and said softly, "I'll give you some more."
Xun Chao over there pouted at him triumphantly.
Feng Siliu kicked over, and directly kicked the 200-jin fat man against the wall.
Seeing this scene, Qi Bai felt that the revenge had been avenged, and he felt happy. He had a good time, and stopped robbing food, and said to Lu Zhu, "Then you order me a drink."
"I want too!" Xun Chao got up from the ground and rubbed his butt, "I want to drink, give me some wine!"
"Let me have some too."
Everyone else agreed, so Lu Zhu called the waiter and ordered drinks for them.
The mercenary team, which had always been poor, seemed to have never had such a happy life, so when the drinks were served, everyone drank heartily, as if they were drunk today.
Lu Zhu guessed that they would be able to drink themselves down within half an hour, so while they were still sober, he asked nonchalantly, "When are we leaving?"
Due to the incident that day, the dungeon suffered heavy losses. In addition, the central storage warehouse of the Star Union Bank suffered a fire, which caused certain losses and impacts on personnel and materials.Therefore, Yueye has not started to formally settle accounts with Qi Bai and his party.
But when Yueye recovered from his injury and the matter of the dungeon eased, perhaps it would be difficult for them to relax so easily.
When Lu Zhu mentioned this matter, Nihility and Ji immediately realized the importance.Several people quickly discussed the itinerary.
"Then tomorrow, the sooner the better, lest you have long nights and dreams." Wu Wuji said to Zhang Yanwu, "Don't drink too much, and be careful when you leave the country to check your drunk driving."
Zhang Yanwu paused, then put down the wine in his hand, nodded: "En."
"If you want me to say, there is nothing to be afraid of at all! Our team has powerful characters who can tear monsters with bare hands. When the people from the dungeon come after us, we will close the door and release [-]!" , said shaking his head.
"You are the dog!" Qi Bai obviously understood Xun Chao's scolding at him immediately, and poured a glass of wine down his throat. He hiccupped and added, "Although I am indeed very powerful."
With hearty energy, Xun Chao and Qi Bai described the incident to Lu Zhu vividly.
As a person who "didn't see the scene", Lu Ju expressed his regret. He nodded while listening, responding to the two people who were about to get drunk.
After drinking one cup after another, Xun Chao finally passed out, lay on the ground with a bang, and couldn't get up.
When no one sang in harmony, Qi Bai became quiet.
Just when Lu Xun thought that their carnival at the wine table was about to end, Qi Bai suddenly leaned over drunkenly, and asked in a low voice:
"Am I really that good?"
Lu Xun didn't speak.
The rest of the mercenary team didn't seem to notice them, they were all drinking and eating on their own, or studying the new gadgets they bought in the afternoon.
At this moment, Qi Bai said again: "I thought I was going to die, but in the end I didn't. I chopped up such a big blood beast...is it possible?"
"……I feel strange."
At that moment, Lu Xun almost invisibly tightened his brows.
Actually he shouldn't worry.Because it is impossible for Qi Bai to suspect him no matter what.
Now in the eyes of this group of people, he is just an ordinary person who doesn't know anything, he can pretend to be stupid and shake his head when asked.
But the next moment, Qi Bai's eyes soaked with alcohol opened wide and looked at Lu Chu, and shouted:
"I see, it's you!"
Lu Xun's eyelids tightened suddenly, and his pupils fluttered faintly.
He didn't expect that Qi Bai was so keen that he really guessed him?
Lu Zhu was dumbfounded: Sure enough, did you underestimate this person...
"You told me before that when a person is dying, he will have great power!"
"It makes sense—I think it must be the moment when I was about to die that I exploded with a strength that I didn't even know, don't you think?"
Qi Bai thought very seriously.
He didn't know if there was any scientific basis for this sentence, but Qi Bai felt that it was very reasonable to apply it to himself.
"..." Lu Xun himself felt quite ups and downs about this.
Well, he shouldn't underestimate Qi Bai, but at the same time he shouldn't overestimate the drunk guy too much.
After confirming that Qi Bai didn't suspect him, Lu Zun's slightly frowning brows quietly let go.
But Qi Bai still looked at him in a daze, his cheeks were stained with a naive blush.
Then he asked Lu Xun again:
"Did you see that video clearly just now? Am I powerful?"
Lu Xun didn't expect him to ask this question, so he couldn't help laughing.
He thought, maybe Qi Bai was drunk, so there was an expectation in his tone like an invitation.But it is also possible that Qi Bai will ask such words when he is not drunk.
Because Qi Bai is very strange, it seems that no matter what he does or what he says, it is possible.
So Lu Xun raised his hand, rubbed Qi Bai's hair, and praised him in a gentle tone: "Well, it's very powerful."
Qi Bai who got the compliment smiled.
He felt that he was really drunk, his head was a little dizzy, and his stomach was a little bloated.
So he leaned on the table and shouted: "Who is going to the toilet!"
Feng Siliu looked over: "Me."
Qi Bai: "The toilets we go to are different."
Feng Siliu repeated the old saying: "Then you will be a woman... Come and help me, I'm dizzy."
"I'm dizzy too, I want to help..." Qi Bai groaned.
Lu Xun stretched out his hand. He was about to send this bewildered little guy to the toilet for a while, when he heard Wu Wuji say: "Come on, I just went out to have a shower. Lao Zhang, you and Liuqian first Drag the dog back, I’m afraid we won’t be able to call a car if it’s late.”
The hand that was about to touch the sleeve was retracted, and Lu Ju looked at nothingness and brought out the two staggering people.
Fortunately, Qi Bai and Feng Si are not too drunk and can walk on their own, but they hang on to Wu Wuji, like two coquettish spirits, each getting stickier than the other.
Lu Xun glanced at his hand inexplicably, but quickly withdrew his gaze, and walked over to help Zhang Yanwu lift the heavy Xun Chao up.
Both of them are very strong, and it is not a problem to move a Xun dynasty.
It didn't take long for them to return to the luxury suite in the hospital before anyone else.
Zhang Yanwu seemed to be very proficient in this kind of thing. After throwing Xun Chao to the floor of one of the bedrooms, he said to Lu Zhu, "It's fine."
Xun Chao, who slept like a dead pig, let out a snoring sound immersed in a dream.
Just when Lu Xun was thinking about whether to throw a quilt for him, the door outside was opened, and Wu Wu and He Feng Siliu followed them back.The two walked to their room while stretching.
Lu Xun walked over and held Wu Wuji's shoulder.
"Huh? Six thousand, what's the matter." Wu Wuji didn't know Lu Zhu very well, so he was stopped by him suddenly, and he was stunned for a moment.
Lu Ju asked him, "Where's Qi Bai?"
"Oh, he was blowing the wind on the balcony just now, and he heard some young people talking about some kind of activity somewhere in the east."
Nothingness and not drinking much, but my head was a little dizzy, and it took me a while to get hot before I recalled it, and said,
"Oh, it seems to be the night of the comet? After all, Qibai is still a child, he got excited when he heard it, and went to play with him...Eh? Where are you going?"
Lu Xun's face darkened.
When he ran out of the hospital, he was still thinking about one question: Is there a reliable person in this mercenary team?
Qi Bai was so drunk that they let him go out to "play" alone?
Recalling the group of extremists who took the old customs as their beliefs, they wished to dedicate themselves to their "king". If there was a better sacrificer, they would definitely offer it with both hands.
And the drunk Qi Bai was obviously a piece of delicious sacrificial offering exuding fragrance, waiting to be swallowed raw.
Lu Xun's pace quickened a bit.
He thinks he needs to reassess this mercenary team: they will not break up, but they will cause trouble.
In the east of the city of Yekanya, near the ruins of the old temple site near the bay, a large bonfire was set up.
When Lu Zhu arrived, the betas participating in the comet night were already declaring their oath.
"We will use ordinary strength to save this wasteland. We are born to be their believers. Our king, after hundreds of years, still survives in every loyalty! Natural disasters no longer exist, The wreckage of the comet still reminds us that nothing is at rest."
"All betas should be proud of their own identities and flesh and blood. The martyrs used their heroism and great sacrifices to warn us not to be humble or inferior. Tonight, we are still warriors, follow our king, and start a new journey -"
They held up the tokens in their hands, and the strange and piercing ringing of the bell spread throughout the night.
Under the starlight, there was a noisy and fiery sacrificial ceremony, and every Beta looked at the sacrificial center with fascination.
Lu Xun looked around the entire sacrificial altar, over and over again, but he didn't see Qi Bai.
Lu Xun never thought that his concern for the younger generation was a habit brought out by him as a teacher. Many times he just naturally wanted to protect those weak children
But for Qi Bai, he has an extra layer of emotions.
Qi Bo is different from his past students, he is more measured than stubborn Qi Bo, smarter than Qi Bo but occasionally naive and dull.She is more cute than Qi Bai but still has an impulsive side, more reliable...
This is really hard to say.Judging from Lu Ju's current understanding of Qi Bai, Qi Bai must be an insulated person.
Therefore, Lu Zhu infinitely magnified his patience. He approached the group of people who were almost obsessed with this carnival, squeezed in and looked for the familiar face one by one.
When Lu Xun's patience was about to run out, he heard a loud voice: "Six thousand—"
Immediately, he located the source of the sound and pushed away the crowded crowd.Lu Xun didn't even notice the slight sweat oozing from his forehead.
Many betas glared at him, accompanied by some pushing and shoving, but their strength was equivalent to nothing to Lu Ju, and this could not hinder his progress.
A hand suddenly stretched out from the crowd and grabbed Lu Xun's clothes.
Lu Xun's face changed slightly, and then he saw Qi Bai's pale pink face coming out, and smiled at him ignorantly:
"You also come to see the excitement!"
Lu Zun's face was as heavy as water, and with a cold and serious expression that he rarely saw, he pulled Qi Bai out of the gap between people.
Some betas glared at him impatiently, but after receiving Lu Zhu's gaze, they all turned their heads tremblingly.
A few minutes later, Lu Ju took Qi Bai away from the sacrificial altar, and the night finally returned to the silence it should have.
They stopped under a towering ancient tree, cut off the last moonlight in its leafy shadow, leaving only a dark hazy vision.
"Wow, you're so strong." Qi Bai chuckled, obviously not sober. After Lu Zhe stopped, he bumped into Lu Zun's body, rubbed his nose, and said, "Slow down!" .”
Without saying a word, Lu Xun let go of his hand.
Qi Bai, who was a bit unsteady, swayed, and finally leaned against the tree trunk.He looked up at Lu Xun, and finally belatedly realized that something was wrong.
So Qi Bai took the initiative to provoke a topic that he thought would ease the atmosphere, saying:
"...You know, they said they wanted me to make sacrifices. How can modern people do this kind of thing? Hey, I think it's very interesting. I just want to see how they make sacrifices."
"Want to go?" Lu Xun asked calmly.
"Think!"
"What if they hurt you?"
"I'll beat them! I'm so strong, I'll tear the monsters apart!"
Lu Xun lowered his eyes and asked again: "What if they do something more egregious?"
"What's the matter?" Qi Bai blinked and said, "Are they going to kill me? But I asked, and they said that offering a sacrifice is not killing..."
Lu Xun suddenly approached, his tall body engulfed Qi Bai in a shadow deeper than the night, he raised his hand, and pressed it on Qi Bai's slender neck, pressing against him.
All Qi Bai's words were blocked in his throat.
Lu Xun called him: "Qi Bai."
"……Well?"
