I rolled over after parallel worlds merged

As a standard northern city, the rainy season in Ningcheng has always been regarded as a minor disturbance. Occasionally, the weather is slightly humid, even if it is a cool day to be happy, but recently, I don’t know if it was affected by this incident. , It has not been out of the sun for three or five days.

Xia Xijin's original favorite season came to an end in his self-enclosed busyness.

Holding the takeaway, he sat cross-legged on the carpet staring at the rain outside the window in a daze.

Boss Xia curled up beside him listlessly, flicking his tail as he stroked.

The lights in the room were not turned on, and the drawings were scattered all over the living room. Xia Xijin was chewing on the lumpy miscellaneous sauce noodles, and suddenly lost her appetite.

Looking at Boss Xia's comfortable sleeping posture, he couldn't help but sighed.

Inexplicably, I feel that my current state is like a widowed old man who has no one to rely on after his children leave their hometown.

On the 43rd day when Hokuriku was away, I missed him.

I also miss his cooking.

After getting used to the well-organized and exquisite life, it's really uncomfortable to return to the state of fooling around in the past.

It is true that it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

Almost two months had passed since the chaos that day, and Beilu, who had originally agreed with him to stay in Ningcheng during the summer vacation, also rushed back to his hometown on the second day of school suspension due to this accident.

At present, the urban order has basically returned to the right track, and everyone is trying to adapt to this brand new, "dancing demons" new world, but Xia Xijin resists it very much. During this period of time, in addition to the necessary work arrangements, he even The door is rarely out.

In short, it is a whole uppercase letter that does not want to accept reality.

A week after the chaos started, under constant communication, negotiation, and exchanges, the four governments finally reached a consensus and issued a joint statement to explain the incident. It sounds very professional, but it is actually very detailed. Perfunctory conclusions—

Due to some temporarily unknown reasons, multiple parallel worlds merged suddenly. The top scientific research teams in each world are working together to find a solution as soon as possible.

According to the inductive summary of the studio colleagues, the social models and compositions of the four parallel worlds that have now been merged actually have only some subtle differences.

The world where the three genders of ABO are secondary differentiated, except for this point, is almost exactly the same as Xia Xijin's world line.

On the other hand, in a world with abundant aura and cultivators, the level of development of all modern technologies is relatively backward.

Another technologically advanced world has only one-thousandth of the population of the other three, and the gap between rich and poor is huge, and it is the most turbulent and unstable.

So in all aspects, everyone actually doesn't really want to maintain this forced coexistence state for a long time.

But until a safe and effective way to separate is found, the four worlds can only sign a peaceful coexistence agreement that needs to be strictly abided by on the basis of their respective originals, and form a provisional coalition government to be responsible for social order and daily life. , as well as the issue of compensation for large and small losses of residents of the world.

Although Xia Xijin was at the entrance of the hospital that day, he was sure that he saw Chu Xi, and he felt a little familiar from other people's descriptions, but he was still trying very hard to convince himself-this cannot confirm the other two dreams. Whether it has also become a reality together, people need to learn to be optimistic.

Don't listen, don't look, don't ask.

Strictly abide by the three no's principle, Schrödinger's misfortune will always be an unknown superposition state.

Anyway, ostrich psychology is the best!Just resolutely don't go to know the details!

But to be honest, he didn't dare to take the initiative to understand.

After all, Xiao Xia tried hard to recall it during this period. When he was dreaming, it seemed that he did not do any good people or deeds worthy of praise. In case...

Xia Xijin, who realized that she had started internal friction again, quickly shook her head.

It's not very good that he starts to play the worst direction as soon as he has some free time these days.

While thinking, he pulled out the remote control that was stuck in the gap of the sofa, and turned on the TV after a long absence, trying to divert his attention.

"Sect Master Ling has not yet left customs due to physical reasons. The elders and the council will have full authority to handle all matters within the sect and the jurisdiction. At the same time, the young master Ling Shuang resigned and will temporarily take over the post of spokesperson for the council."

"Thank you for coming today."

Before he had time to quickly switch to the children's channel to watch absolutely harmless cartoons, Gu Yunzhi's characteristic warm voice came out from the TV.

Xia Xijin, who had been implementing the principle of "I don't think it's shameful to escape and it's really useful" for more than a month, fell into an awkward silence in her living room.

The superposition state where the answer could not be determined instantly collapsed into what he did not want to see.

Whether the kitten in the thought experiment will die or not, Xia Xijin doesn't know, nor is she interested.

Now he only felt that he was suddenly one step closer to being caught by the suffering master and accepting cruel punishment.

Ok……

I turn a blind eye and switch channels immediately, can I pretend nothing happened?

Please please.

Obviously, the answer to this question is a big and firm NO!

The press conference on the screen was still going on step by step. Ling Shuangci, who was dressed in a simple white Taoist robe, nodded towards Elder Gu, and walked to the microphone without changing his face. He looked so beautiful and used to seeing big scenes .

His voice was flat and light, as if he wouldn't generate any extra emotion, it was much colder than Xia Xijin's tone when he occupied his body.

Coupled with that delicate face that seems to be carved out of high-quality fat jade material, it will be pleasing to the eye just by taking a look at it from a distance.

This is probably the highest standard of the Xianmen son described in the artwork.

"Jianzong officially joined the United Provisional Government yesterday. His father is still injured, so it is really not appropriate to work too hard, so I will temporarily take over the relevant positions in the near future."

"I will accept all doubts and negations from the outside world and correct them humbly. At the same time, I would also like to thank everyone for their support and trust. If you media friends present have other questions you want to know, you can start asking questions now." Ling Shuang resigned Said without haste.

The camera switched to an off-stage angle, and I saw that basically all the people with ID cards hanging around their necks raised their hands, which looked densely packed and quite spectacular.

Ling Shuangci, on the other hand, was as calm and composed as he had long been used to, with his eyelids drooping slightly, he raised his chin, and randomly picked a male reporter in the first row.

The staff immediately handed over the handheld microphone.

The male reporter had a recorder pinned to his collar, and after thanking him, he spoke sharply: "Master Ling, good afternoon, first of all, I would like to thank your father for his great contribution to the stability of the jurisdiction over the years. On behalf of the Cultivation World Observation Daily, Here’s wishing him a speedy recovery.”

"Recently, two rumors have caused great discussion. I look forward to taking this opportunity to get your positive response."

"First, what Guanyuemen said, after your marriage contract was canceled by Mozun's daughter due to privacy issues that are inconvenient to disclose, you jumped off a cliff in anger and suffered a serious injury. Assembly, may I ask if this matter is true?"

"Second, is your forbidden area—"

Before the "very dedicated, very sonorous, very lively and eager to make headlines" comrade reporter finished asking, Xia Xijin hurriedly turned off the TV, saying nothing and dared not continue listened.

After all, as long as anyone notices Young Master Ling's instantly collapsed face, and the murderous look in his sharp eyes filled with "I will be silenced soon", he will not think that this matter can finally be handled in a family way.

Not to mention Xia Xijin, the instigator.

The onlookers may be very willing to watch this excitement, but Xiao Xia really can't bear to look directly at it.

He just wanted to find a temple to burn incense and pray to Buddha, kowtow piously, and wish that the victim Ling Mou would be safe and happy, and it would be best not to find him in this life.

Please, he has just made money, and his life is so happy that he can't easily develop the negative psychology of "enough is enough, just admit your mistakes and die".

But it is strange to say that the impact of this merger does not seem to be as earth-shaking as Xia Xijin originally imagined, and it can even be said to be harmonious.

The infrastructure is well-organized, and ordinary people accept the new settings extremely quickly. Even those who want to take advantage of the chaos and break the law are few, and there is no congestion and lack of resources caused by the population explosion.

The four worlds seem to be spread out by some mysterious force, intertwined and interspersed together, weaving a brand new pattern perfectly without wind or waves, as if it has always been like this in the first place.

Scientists attribute this situation to the conservation of matter, and religious metaphysics is another credit for the unnatural forces they believe in. Anyway, everyone seems to think this is normal.

Xia Xijin was confused.

But after all, he is just a small painter who can just rely on his professional skills to make a living. The scientific research workers have given up their research. No matter how hard he thinks, it is difficult for him to come up with a reliable answer.

Therefore, Xiao Xia, who has a casual and free personality, decisively chooses to be more gregarious.

Work behind closed doors and concentrate on creating.

After all, the money that is put into the bank card on time will never be cheated!

However, Xia Xijin's career line has indeed gone too smoothly during this period.

Bouncing back from bottoming out, time to turn, words that sound very happy, even if they are all used on him, it is not an exaggeration in the slightest.

Thanks to the previous "Bodhisattva" star's recommendation, the exposure of Xia Xijin's works increased exponentially. A good popularity foundation was laid in the early stage, and the follow-up promotion and publicity effects also exceeded expectations, forming a virtuous circle.

Nowadays, not only is the income from the paid part very considerable, but even the plan for printing and publishing in the second half of the year has been finalized. A few days ago, Luo Sang secretly told him that a company has come to discuss cooperation in the production of an animation of the same name.

But Xiao Xia, who suddenly realized her dream, was not very happy. It can only be said that it is mixed.

After all, the more exposed this work that relied on Nightmare, the higher the possibility of him being found by several parties.

Facts have proved that although theoretically speaking, the probability of "indulging oneself in a dream, and having to bear the consequences in reality" is very small, but it is not completely impossible.

Who would have expected that there would be such a parallel world?

Xiao Xia, who learned from the pain, was really wronged.

It's a pity that the contract has been signed before, and Xia Xijin, who can't afford to be held accountable for breach of contract, is firmly tied to the deck of this "thief ship".

After thinking about the countermeasures to no avail, Xiaoxia simply gave up struggling, completely started to behave badly, and tried to gain some psychological comfort by brainwashing herself.

After all, it's just a comic. No matter how popular it is, the audience is not that wide.

A young master, a president, and a top-ranking person certainly don't have time to engage in this kind of leisure and entertainment activities that are friendly to the people.

How long can you hide?

Xia Xijin lay down very peacefully.

But fortunately, Xia Xijin, who had a bad premonition, made some emergency arrangements with the studio during the time when the world had just merged and was relatively chaotic, and made up a seemingly reasonable excuse. All the names of the three important male supporting roles in the comics were changed to simple surnames and occupations.

Although it is still to the extent that a few righteous masters see it and recognize it at a glance, it is better than nothing, at least the directionality is not so obvious.

Suddenly, two pleasant notification tones came from the mobile phone that was thrown on the coffee table.

Xia Xijin, who was lying drowsy on the sofa, suddenly regained his energy. He jumped up and couldn't wait to pick up his phone and unlock it.

Sure enough, it was news from Luoshang——

[Sister Luoluo: The review of the last chapter is OK, Mr. Guo also approved the long vacation, Xia Xia has worked hard during this time, take advantage of the vacation to go travel and relax, if there is a change in work, I will contact~]

Xia Xijin, whose hanging heart finally fell to the ground, immediately returned the expression of "the little cat is crying with joy".

After nearly four months of serialization, the first volume of "Parallel Worlds" has finally come to an end.

At the end, the protagonist completed the task assigned by the system with an S-level assessment, successfully changed the plot lines of the three unfinished novels, successfully reversed the tragic fate of several important male supporting roles, and obtained a chance to realize his wish .

As for how to continue the next volume, and what kind of wish the protagonist wants to make, Xia Xijin hasn't figured it out yet.

However, the comment area has been very lively in the past two days, with various speculations and analysis tall buildings built one after another.

Readers who read comics with a microscope picked out some small bugs in the previous plot that had not been noticed, and made associations, trying to prove that this was actually a foreshadowing left by the author.

Xia Xijin couldn't help doubting her own outline because of the reasonedness and conviction.

thanks, thanks!The analysis is very good, if I can't think of a more awesome direction, then I will do it!

[Sister Luoluo: Huh?Didn't sleep?I thought I was catching up on sleep! ]

Xia Xijin, who was on vacation, only felt relaxed, and just about to reply to the other party, Luo Sang called directly.

"The last chapter is very good! Tell me quickly, what wish do you plan to make one by one?" Luo Chen's excited voice came from the receiver.

Yi Yi is the nickname of the main character in the manga.

Hearing this, Xia Xijin smiled, and her mood, which had been dull for several days, finally brightened up a little: "Are you also chasing more?"

"I haven't thought about it. Maybe it's to get a new identity and live the ordinary life of ordinary people." He replied casually.

Luo Shuang let out an "ah", sounding dissatisfied: "The editor-in-chief will definitely let it be changed."

"Oh, I've said it all and I haven't figured it out yet." Xia Xijin, who was terrified when she heard the word editor-in-chief, hurriedly made up for it.

"Speaking of which, this vacation lasts for about 20 days." After laughing a few times, Luo Shun changed the subject smoothly, "How do you plan to spend it? Now you can be considered financially free."

Xia Xijin replied without any hesitation: "I booked a ticket to go back to my hometown tomorrow."

"Beilu doesn't know what's going on these two days, and I can't get in touch at all. I'm a little worried."

"Ah?" Luo Zang asked in surprise, "Did you get dizzy after going back to play with your high school classmates? But isn't the kid at home very good-natured? It shouldn't be..."

Xia Xijin frowned, apparently he was not in a good mood when talking about this matter, he sighed, and said: "I even asked my mother to go to his house to look for it, but no one opened it no matter how hard I asked. The neighbor, the neighbor said that the house has not been lived in for three to five years."

"Beilu's personality is relatively reserved. He usually doesn't have many friends at school. I'm afraid that something happened at home. The child can't think about it for a while, so I thought about going to see it in person when I was free recently. I happened to have two I haven't been home for a year."

"Not bad, then remember to bring me special products when you come back~" Luo Sang's words were full of smiles.

"Oh yes! I almost forgot the business." Luo Zhong exclaimed as if suddenly remembering something, and said mysteriously, "I have some great news to tell you."

Xia Xijin: "What?"

Luo Shun: "Guess."

"As long as it doesn't sell some other copyright." The guilty little Xia Sheng said without love.

Luo Zang let out a "hiss", obviously thinking that the other party was in Versailles: "If you have money, you don't make money, you bastard!"

"However, the guess is quite accurate. Today, people from Xingyi came to discuss the film and television adaptation rights with Mr. Guo. If this is done, it will definitely make a lot of money." Luo Chen excitedly drew a big cake, " My wife already has it!"

"No, my current account balance is enough to marry three people. I am contented and happy. I don't have such big ambitions." What Xia Xijin is most afraid of now is being too public. He only hopes that great scientific researchers can hurry up. Find a way to separate the world, and don't let him be scared every day.

Suddenly, as if he had realized something, he asked belatedly: "Xingyi? It sounds familiar. Is it a very powerful company?"

"Of course! But it's not from our world line." Luo Shun affirmed Xiao Xia's judgment, and added, "Xingyi Entertainment! It's the company where the very popular star Chu Xi works."

Xia Xijin: ...?

……please do not

"Their family has signed a lot of beautiful Alphas and Omega. During this time, they have dug up a lot of traffic from other world lines. It seems that they have cooperated with the entertainment company of Mozun. They are very rich and powerful!"

As soon as we talked about gossip, Luo Sang couldn't stop talking: "Today, the person in charge brought the legal affairs and accountants with him, and he came with a high-spirited appearance. He just entered Mr. Guo's office before the door was closed. The first thing he said was 'Talk about the psychological price, and I will pay the deposit at twice the real-time exchange rate'."

"Several colleagues who eavesdropped in the tea room were stunned, saying that our small workshop has never seen such a battle." Luo Zang "tsk tsk" several times, and then said with emotion: "Taking our Xia Xia light!"

Xia Xijin: ...

It's better not to touch the light.

"Hey, but I just suddenly remembered that at the very beginning of this manga, isn't that top male supporting role called Chu Xi?" Luo Chen asked soul-crushingly.

Xiao Xia, who was poked into a sad heart, said perfunctorily: "Well... it's a coincidence."

"That's too coincidental!" Luo Sang muttered, "But the character design is really good, I guess Xingyi bought it back because he wanted Chu Xi to act, I heard that he wants to completely transform into an actor this year, big screen and small screen Grab it with both hands."

"It's easy to understand." Xia Xijin replied awkwardly.

Luo Zang's lines were relatively rough, and he didn't hear Xia Xijin's emotional changes at all, and he still kept talking: "Ham, my sister is very obsessed with him recently, and she whispers in my ear every day."

"However, Chu Xi is really handsome, and has a unique temperament. Hey, Alpha and Omega, apart from being easily influenced by each other's pheromones, they really have all their advantages! Just pick any one out and they will look above the average. , I'm so envious..."

"Oh, we got off the topic again." Luoshang, who had finished feeling emotionally, suddenly realized that she restrained the desire to chat, cleared her throat, and finally cut to the key topic: "In short, the current situation is that their company has given A very generous offer, but with one small request."

"The specific details of the contract, they want to have an interview with the author, so Mr. Guo asked me to ask for my opinion."

Although what should come will always come, and this retribution has been fulfilled much faster than he expected, and the form is quite unexpected, but Xiao Xia, who has a strong desire to survive, still wants to struggle to the death.

Xia Xijin tentatively asked weakly: "Can you not sell it?"

Luo Shuang obviously didn't expect such a reaction from the other party, so he was inevitably taken aback, and then asked in puzzlement: "Why? The conditions they offered are really good."

Without any hesitation, Xia Xijin opened her mouth and said, "Well... the fortune teller said that it is not suitable for me to cooperate with someone surnamed Chu this year, because it is easy to cause bloodshed."

Editor Luo: ...?

I feel like I'm being lied to, but I have no proof.

But in fact, from the point of view of "Blood and Light Disaster", Xia Xijin's lie is not divorced from reality, and the underlying logical relationship is still very established.

"It's ridiculous... I don't care, but if you want to deal with Mr. Guo, it's better to be more reliable." Luo Sang suggested.

"Then what do you think of the reason 'Chu Xi doesn't meet my expectations for the role'?" Xiao Xia sincerely asked for advice from the bottom of her heart.

"I actually feel quite similar, but I've said that, so let's forget it. I'll see how to explain it to her, but..." Luo Shun paused, and said with some embarrassment: "That's right, Mr. Guo I think they are quite sincere..."

Hearing this, Xia Xijin couldn't help but thump in his heart, and he suddenly became nervous, only feeling a faint sense of foreboding.

In the next second, Editor Luo's supplementary explanation verified his idea even more.

"She gave them the address directly, and they may be on the way now..."

As soon as the voice fell, as if to prove something, the doorbell of Xia Xijin's house sang suddenly, so loud that Luo Chen on the other end of the phone could hear it clearly.

She smiled awkwardly "hehe", half watching the fun, half joking about getting ready to slip away: "Oh, it's so fast, it's almost here, haha!"

"Go and open the door, Xia Xia, don't make people wait in a hurry." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone at the speed of light.

Xia Xijin: ...

Thanks for the reminder, I really appreciate it.

Holding a solemn mood similar to going to the grave, Xiaoxia walked over hesitantly, and turned the doorknob reluctantly.

The door opened, and the scene in front of him was like a heavy punch, with a straight and merciless "kuangkuang" hammering desperately on Xia Xijin's trigeminal nerve.

Standing outside the door is not a project leader who walks with style, nor is there any legal affairs or accountants who sound awesome.

The only thing that catches Xiao Xia's eyes is the ruthless and selfless manager Lu Ge who is dressed in black and looks like a bodyguard, and his identity can be judged by his iconic gray pupils and "mad dog temperament" that can't be concealed. "Unfilial artist".

When the old people reunited, Xia Xijin was the only one with "tears in tears" in despair and sorrow.

He only regrets that the floor of his house is not high enough, jumping out of the broken window to his death may be more muddy, and then he will have to trouble Dingliu and his bad manager to send him to rescue him, so it's embarrassing...

"It's Teacher Xia." Chu Dingliu raised his chin slightly and said haughtily, with every word showing the characteristics of the unruly character.

Xia Xijin, who really didn't want to admit it, said sincerely: "Actually, I don't have to."

Chu Xi, who was choked for a while, raised her eyebrows, looked Xia Xijin up and down with fierce eyes, and then made a self-willed and domineering evaluation: "I think it is."

"...Okay, no problem, just be happy." Xiao Xia said peacefully.

Lu Ming, who was standing next to him, savored the ineffective communication between the two of them like playing charades for a while. After repeated deliberations and failed to find any valuable and profound meanings, he really couldn't see it.

He slapped Chu Xi hard on the back, showing a "not very friendly, but working hard" business smile: "Sorry, Mr. Xia, excuse me, our Xiao Xi is not very good at talking , please forgive me."

"Don't dare." Xia Xijin replied, waving her hands.

Please forgive me first, please forgive me first.

It is not polite, not perfunctory, not modest, and not the artist's incongruity.

Xiao Xia really didn't dare.

This Teacher Xia is also a weird person. Seeing the other party's cramped, nervous, and indescribable behavior, Lu Ming inevitably murmured in his heart.

But after thinking about it, it is normal for those who engage in niche art to not have social skills.

A screenwriter teacher I worked with before was even more exaggerated. When talking about the script, as long as there are more than three people on the scene, you have to pull out a screen. Write it on a small note and send it out by an assistant.

Compared with others, Teacher Xiao Xia is not good at words, so what's wrong with it.

Lu Ming cleared his throat, and expressed the intention of the two of them very sincerely: "This is Mr. Xia, you should already know that Xingyi wants to buy the film and television adaptation rights of the work "Parallel World", right?"

I know all too well.

Xia Xi Jinsheng nodded helplessly.

Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Our company has a strong willingness to cooperate. One is that the content of your work is really interesting. In addition, our four parallel worlds have also merged together by coincidence. Recently, related works derived from this There are many, and it is expected to be a hot topic in the future.”

"After learning about a lot of IP, we still feel that your work is relatively complete in terms of plot and story structure, and the first volume is about to be completed, so the project can be started as soon as possible to seize the opportunity."

"Of course, the most important point is that Chu Xi really likes this comic of yours." Lu Ming put his hand on Chu Xi's back, and held the big star beside him who was silent but staring at Xia Xijin, He pushed forward mercilessly, "Ever since he saw your work, he has insisted on coming to see you."

"I was also troubled by him, otherwise we wouldn't have come to visit in such a hurry, and didn't even have time to buy a piece of fruit." Lu Ming said bitterly.

Xia Xijin was at a loss for words and didn't know what to respond.

Chu Xi, on the other hand, looked like a natural bastard, ignoring the manager's frenzied courtship, her sharp eyes aimed at Xia Xijin, she lightly tore off her mask, and curled her mouth in perfunctory agreement : "Ah, yes, I am indeed particularly interested in Teacher Xia."

Xia Xijin: ...Thank you

If someone else is interested, I might be more moved.

Lu Ming's performance seemed unaware, but it's not surprising.

After all, on the basis of borrowing these three characters, Xia Xijin also added a lot of original plots for expansion. Some details are only clear to the parties who are sure that they really lost all their memories in those few days.

Suddenly, the phone of the busy gold medal broker rang. He looked at the note, smiled apologetically at Xia Xijin, and explained: "I called from Huanyu Technology. Chu Xi has been talking about it for the past two days. An endorsement for their new product."

Hearing Huanyu Technology's name and recalling some unpleasant experiences, Xiaoxia couldn't help shivering.

Don't, don't let me hear the name of this company, I'm going to start standing still...

"Then I'll go to work first, so I won't bother you to chat alone." After finishing speaking, Lu Ming turned around and left. Before leaving, he didn't forget to pat Chu Xi on the shoulder, half pointing, half threateningly said: " Talk to the teacher with respect."

"I'll wait outside."

Chu Xi lazily raised her hand towards him, very casually: "I know, I know, let's go."

"I will have a good talk with Teacher Xia."

Listening to Chu Xi's emphatic words, Xia Xijin, who struggled and failed, felt ashamed.

Whatever it is, destroy it.

Chu Xi walked into the apartment familiarly, looked around with a sense of scrutiny, and then turned his eyes back to Xia Xijin.

His eyebrows were raised slightly, and the corner of his mouth drew an insincere arc, obviously he was smiling, but Xia Xijin couldn't detect any smile from the other person's expression, he only felt that it was the silence before the storm.

The two stared at each other in silence for a long time, but Chu Xi, who had never been able to hold back his thoughts, couldn't help but make a move first.

He tilted his upper body slightly, poked his head and got very close to Xia Xijin's face, and after hearing a slight sneer, he said meaningfully:

"Miss Xia, there are only two of us left now."

"I think, where should we start talking better..."

"Ok?"

The author has something to say: Xiaoxia: Let’s start talking about how you did in the adult college entrance examination.
