Bounty Hunter
Chapter 32
Di Chu turned his head and asked, "Shall we leave now?"
Kong Que let go of the ears on his hat and smiled: "Didn't it scare you?"
"I know you're here." Smelled it, to be exact.
Di Chu rubbed Mao Mao's chin, Mao Mao meowed coquettishly, then rubbed his hand, turned and left.Di Chu watched it leave, patted the cat fur on his trousers, stood up and faced Kong Que.
"Let's eat first?" Kong Que reached out to help him remove a cat hair from his hair.
Di Chu raised his eyes to look at his hand, and replied, "Okay."
The two of them met this time to complete the last visit to the research institute that failed halfway. In order to prevent any accidents, this time Kong Que specially transferred a day of vacation that was not a weekend, and came to meet Emperor Chu in person.
For lunch, Kong Que took Di Chu to a barbecue restaurant.
The barbecue restaurant is not big, but the environment is quiet, the tables are far apart, and the lighting is very warm, giving people a feeling of home.
The two chose a corner and sat opposite each other. The dishes were served quickly. There were six dishes in total, including a roasted suckling pig-sized strange animal, a vegetable salad, a soup, and some refreshing side dishes. .
The small animal is fat, with stubby limbs, like a pig but without the big ears and nose of a pig, and it doesn't smell like pork, but with a bit of fruity aroma. The skin is burnt red and slightly brown, and finely chopped The seasoning is very attractive.
"This is a pig and mouse transported from the planet G5. The pig and mouse eat fruit. The meat has a fruity aroma and is not greasy. You can try it." The most tender layer of meat was cut off, and the slices were placed on Dichu's plate.
Di Chu naturally divided them into two, stretched out his hand to dissipate the strength from half of the meat, and put it on the plate in front of Kong Que.
Kong Que froze with the knife in his hand.
Di Chu looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
"No...it's okay." Kong Que's eyes curved gently, and he cut off one of the hind legs of the pig mouse and put it on Di Chu's plate, and asked while helping him adjust the sauce, "Go on?" The first time you told me that You Li suggested that you open Weibo and a personal live broadcast room, have you considered it, do you want to open it?"
His words reminded Di Chu.
"Open it." Dichu put down his chopsticks, turned on his optical brain, and opened Weibo on the spot, remembering Professor You Li's strategy of "If you don't know what to post, just take a picture of your daily lunch and dinner for fans to see", facing The pig mouse in front of me took a picture, clicked to upload, with the words: Eat this today.
Seeing his movements, Kong Que opened his brain and asked, "Already opened?"
Di Chu nodded, picked up the chopsticks again, took a bite of the meat, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.
Ever since he discovered that there were such things as exotic animal meat in this world, his three meals a day have all turned into various exotic animal meat.Exotic meat is very expensive, one meal is equivalent to a week's food money for ordinary people, Di Chu eats more and spends more, but fortunately he makes a lot of money playing in the arena, so eating like this will not make you poor.
Kong Que poured him a glass of water, followed his homepage to enter his newly opened Weibo, saw what he posted, the corners of his mouth curled up, followed, liked and reposted, and then turned off the optical brain.
The two of them were eating barbecue in a warm atmosphere, completely unaware that because of their actions, there was already a storm on Hunter's Weibo.
The process of wind and rain is basically like this.
The first wave, shock!After half a year, my husband/male god/Mr. Kong finally posted on Weibo!
The second wave, damn it!My husband/male god/Mr. Kong who only thinks about it when I publish major research results, actually likes and reposts other people's Weibo. It's a miracle!
The third wave, let me see which little fairy made the husband/male god/Mr. Kong make an exception...Huh?Why does it seem like a new Weibo... Fuck!Chuchu baby opened Weibo!
The fourth wave, ah!Pig rat!A whole one!One is worth my month's salary, jealousy makes me mutated and disordered!
Fifth wave, wait!Baby Chu Chu eating with her husband/male god/Mr. Kong? !Or is it just a coincidence that the likes of husband/male god/Mr. Kong are just slippery?
So crackling, #老公和宝宝包我去吃饮食的#, #孙先生发博#, #帝初开微博# and other topics quickly became popular, and the number of fans on Dichu’s Weibo began to skyrocket. tens of thousands of minutes.
……
On the way to the research institute after dinner, Kong Que sent a picture to Di Chu and said, "I promised to give you your avatar, it's already drawn, take a look."
avatar?
It was only then that Di Chu remembered that Kong Que had promised to draw a new portrait of him, and he lowered his head and turned on the optical brain to receive the picture.
The picture is not big, just the right size for a head portrait. In the painting, the small animal that looks like a rabbit but not a rabbit is facing out of the picture, its hair is blown up, its eyes are menacing, its four claws are like purple fire, and it is very majestic towards the outside of the picture Pounced and roared, very handsome!
Di Chu blushed and his breathing became heavier. He glanced at the picture with bright eyes, and then at Kong Que with bright eyes. He couldn't hide the love on his face: "Thank you, I like it very much!"
For the sake of this painting, he decided not to bother about Kong Que using his real body image as the head portrait and making him fat!
So Kong Que was happy and satisfied. He pretended to be reserved and smiled slightly, and said, "Your Weibo is still the original avatar. Do you want to use this?"
For your own Weibo, of course you must use your own body as your avatar!With such a handsome self, I must show all the half-demons a good look!
Without saying a word, Di Chu logged into the Hunter APP, ignored the Weibo private mailbox and comment prompts from Kuangzheng, and replaced his Weibo profile picture with this.
Kong Que also opened Weibo, looked first at his own profile picture, and then at Di Chu's profile picture, the same little animal, one quiet and one moving, one cute and one majestic, especially harmonious and warm.
Both of them are very happy, but the people who eat melons on the Internet are not so happy.
Their first reaction was to be amazed—wow, Di Chu has changed his avatar, the avatar looks so good!
The second reaction was shock - damn it!Why does this avatar look so similar to that of my husband/male god/Mr. Kong!All the paintings are of the male god's precious strange little beast!
The third reaction is——wait a minute, why does the painting style of Di Chu's avatar look so much like the handwriting of her husband/male god/Mr. Kong?Could it be...?
In the end, a conjecture arose in their minds—could it be... this is...the head portrait of a couple?
Everyone was messed up and mutated in the wind, and then everyone quickly calmed down and resolutely overturned this guess.
impossible!Absolutely impossible!
Dichu is still a child!Mr.'s old-fashioned, absolutely will never do anything to a child who has just grown up!And the husband must absolutely absolutely not know what a couple's headshot is!
Regarding the avatar and Weibo, it must be that the husband likes Di Chu very much, thinks he is cute, excellent and worth cultivating, so he is taking care of him!
It must be like this. Mister is 38 years old. Considering the age of ancient humans, it is the time when fatherly love overflows the most. Dichu is so obedient and kind. He even saved him twice. Maybe Mister wants to accept him as a pawn. adopted son?
The wind direction on Weibo became more and more crooked. When Fei Ye, who was doing tasks in the hunter's auction house, received a message from You Li and opened Weibo to check the situation, the netizens had unilaterally adopted Di Chu, the adopted son, for Kong Que. The topic of #史最优手养父子# has also become the most popular topic.
Fei Ye somehow felt a sense of crisis.
He sent a message to You Li: I think if Dichu wanted to choose an adoptive father, he would definitely choose me first, you think so too, right?
Yuli:? ? ?
What is right, will he gossip, how will he answer this!
……
At this time, Kong Que knew nothing about the sudden addition of an adopted son under his name, and was leading Di Chu into the center of the research institute, introducing the situation of the two kingfishers.
"They are very smart and very close. I have checked the information and have confirmed that they are a kind of ancient kingfisher. There is no sign of mutation on their bodies. They are pure-bred ancient animals, and their research value is very high."
Di Chu looked at the layout along the road and asked, "Then those eggs I gave you last time, are there any survivors?"
He also got those from several dead nests that had lost their females. Judging from the surrounding environment, most of them should be turtle eggs, a small part should be snake eggs, and only one is bird eggs.
In the dangerous mutant area, it is very difficult for pure ancient creatures to survive. Di Chu was able to find these because he found a lair where the monster race lived in the mutant area. There is a very weak barrier around the lair. Because of the protection of the enchantment, some ancient plants and ancient creatures in the nest escaped the fate of mutation.
But because the enchantment has lasted for too long and has almost exhausted its strength, the environment inside the enchantment is on the verge of collapse. If Dichu is delayed by half a month, there will be the last traces of ancient plants and ancient creatures in it. It will also disappear completely.
Mentioning this, Kong Que felt a little depressed, and shook his head: "Those eggs have been inactive for too long, and we tried our best to hatch only one successfully. It was a little turtle, but unfortunately it died soon."
Although he had expected it, after hearing his words, Di Chu still felt a bit sad.Everyone is a beast that has escaped the wheel of history by chance, and it is unknown how long they can live in the end.
He nodded to show that he understood, and did not speak.
"Sorry, I didn't keep the gift you gave me."
"You have tried your best." Di Chu looked up at him, and raised the corner of his mouth towards him, "Thank you for protecting them."
Di Chu seldom smiled. Since Kong Que knew him, he had only seen him smile once or twice, and the corners of his mouth were very shallow. He really wanted to see Di Chu smile more. Yes, but he doesn't like Di Chu's smile at all.
With a little sadness, a little bit of a loss of nowhere to be home, and a little bit of complicated gratitude.
strange reaction.
"But the ancient plants you gave me are all alive, and one of them has been confirmed to be a camellia. I'll show you to see it when it blooms." Kong Que quickly changed the subject, took two quick steps and reached out to press the button on the baby bird breeding room. "Look at the kingfishers first, they should be eating now."
He entered the cultivation room first, and wanted to say hello to the big apprentice who was guarding here, but saw a person standing inside who should not have appeared here.
"Teacher." Zhong Lin greeted him with a smile, and then looked at Di Chu who stepped back, "Mr. Di Chu, welcome to come again. I'm sorry I couldn't entertain you last time."
Di Chu silently held his breath, and nodded reservedly as a greeting.
Kong Que frowned, glanced at the cultivation room, and asked, "Where's Gu Fan?"
The cultivation room is not the kind of place where people can come in and out casually. Zhong Lin's appearance here made him feel very unhappy.
"Zhizhi has a little problem over there, and he went to help. I happen to be fine, so I'll help him take care of the kingfishers for a while." Zhong Lin replied, pointing to the large glass breeding room with a smile, "They just ate enough. ,resting."
Young birds, like young animals, need to eat and sleep more to grow well.
Di Chu looked over and saw two little birds huddled together sleeping on a soft cushion.
The kingfisher is a medium-sized water bird with a thick and straight beak, long and pointed. When it grows up, its feathers are a very beautiful combination of emerald blue and brown-yellow. When it flies up, it looks like a small blue jewel burning with a warm flame. pretty.
But the kingfisher was not very good-looking when it was a child. Its fur is relatively thick and hard. The feathers on the back of the head are gray-black, and the belly is warm yellow, which is very inconspicuous.
Di Chu didn't like birds, but these two were touched by himself after all, and he had eaten a little of his strength, so he accepted them well.
He stepped over and reached out to touch the incubator, but was stopped by Zhong Lin eagerly: "Don't touch it! They are very fragile and sensitive to strange smells, and they are resting now. If they are frightened, they may have a stress reaction."
Fragile?
Di Chu felt incredible.
He looked at the two little kingfishers in the incubator with a faint spirit, and withdrew his hand with a strange expression on his face.
There should be ghosts in the ancestors of these two, that is, the kind of little goblins who know how to practice, have a preliminary enlightenment, and only wait for the accumulation of transformation to become demons. about there.
And these two also ate some of the power he gave in the eggs, and they were stronger than ordinary spirits.
"If you have time... you can tell them stories." It is good for enlightening their wisdom, and maybe it can also activate their spirit blood.
"Try to only let ancient humans take care of them, that will make them more comfortable. If you must use new humans, remember to choose plants and birds with a gentle temperament." He thought for a while and added.
Spirits are very sensitive to the breath of half-demons. Foxes like Zhong Lin who have a strong smell and have birds in their recipes will make the young birds feel very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes to look at Zhong Lin, then at Kong Que, his eyes were gloomy.
Back then, Kong Que had promised him that he would take good care of these two little guys, but in the end he sent a stinky fox over to smoke them... Liar.
Zhong Lin felt dizzy from the look in Di Chu's eyes. He had an inexplicable feeling of being disgusted. Thinking of what he said, he felt that he meant something and was taking revenge on himself. He hurriedly turned around and explained to Kong Que: "Teacher, I I have been disinfected before coming in, and I wear gloves when feeding, to ensure that all operations are strictly in accordance with the regulations. Mr. Dichu doesn't understand these things, and he may have misunderstood me..."
"Go out and call Gu Fan back." Kong Que interrupted him, very dissatisfied with his behavior here, trying to suppress his temper, "Your project has been completed, go to the management office in a while, and send my The access authority is cancelled."
Zhong Lin's expression changed, and his voice raised unconsciously: "Teacher, I—"
The two baby birds that were sleeping were awakened by his voice, suddenly Qi Qi raised his head and opened his eyes, and then saw Di Chu standing outside the box.
The two pairs of doudou eyes, which were still confused at first, opened wide in an instant, and suddenly they all rushed to the edge of the glass, flapped their wings while pecking at the glass, and chirped at Di Chu.
Di Chu twitched his eyebrows and took a step back.
You still want to eat his power, you insatiable stinky bird, don't even think about it.
The kingfisher sang more urgently, and even started to hit the glass.
Kong Que's face had already sunk, and he didn't bother to say a word to Zhong Lin. He turned on the optical brain and sent a message to Gu Fan, then walked quickly to the incubator and operated it a few times quickly. spread out, and calmed the kingfisher who seemed to be frightened by Zhong Lin's shout.
It was the first time Zhong Lin saw Kong Que so obviously angry. He panicked, pursed his lips and swallowed the ensuing intercession and argument, and glanced at Di Chu who caused all this. After saying "I'll call Gu Fan", he turned and left.
Di Chu felt that this stinky fox was inexplicable. Last time it seduced him with a fake smile, but this time it released hostility towards him again. The change in mood was so great that it made people completely clueless.
In the incubator, the kingfisher, which had just stabilized for a few seconds, became excited again and kept bumping into the box.
Kong Que was very anxious. The pacifying potion should not be used frequently, as it would damage the young birds' bodies, but if they were allowed to hit like this, there might be some problems.
Di Chu squinted at the two greedy birds, saw Kong Que frowning, walked over reluctantly, stretched out his hand to open the box, and put his finger inside.
Immediately, the baby bird rushed towards his hand, pecked at his fingers, and rubbed against his fingers, making cheerful chirps and flapping its wings like a small fan.
Kong Que: "..."
He turned his head to look at Di Chu.
"They're full and want to find someone to play with." Di Chu opened his eyes and said nonsense, waving his hands out as he spoke.
The young bird rushed to stop it, but unfortunately it didn't stop, and fell onto the cushion.
Afraid that something might happen to them, Kong Que hurriedly reached out to pick them up, put them in his palm and touched them.
The little bird that was still struggling at first became quiet and docile in his palm, no longer looking for Di Chu, and huddled obediently, tilting its head from time to time and rubbing the fingertips that Kong Que touched, blinking and blinking, very dependent on intimacy look.
The emperor was surprised.
These two little monsters actually showed a submissive and flattering attitude towards Kong Que, but Kong Que was just an ordinary ancient human being, not a big monster... Was it a baby bird plot?
"Sorry, there was a little accident. They are usually taken care of by my big apprentice Gu Fan. He is an ancient human being and will not scare them." Kong Que's explanation interrupted Di Chu's thoughts, "I didn't Thinking that Zhong Lin would appear here... I did not manage well, I promised you that I would take good care of them, but in the end I let you see this."
As he spoke, he carried the two kingfishers and put them into the incubator with great care.
Looking at his gentle movements and slightly frowning brows, Di Chu suddenly felt that this was his real appearance, soft and careful... It felt very bullying, so he couldn't help reaching out and poking him.
Kong Que's body froze, and he turned his head to look at him while clutching the poked waist, only felt that the poked place was numb and hot, as if he had been electrocuted by something.
Both of them were standing in front of the incubator, so close that Di Chu could see the surprise and bewilderment in Kong Que's eyes.
His expression was blank, his phoenix eyes were slightly wide open, and his body kept a half-bent posture stupidly. His expression was not mature and gentle when he was outside, nor was he kind and tolerant in front of Di Chu, but simply dumbfounded, like a bird. A frightened animal.
Di Chu's eyes were slightly bent, and he poked his arm again.
Kong Que's eyes widened, and his other hand covered his arm, so his body posture became more and more funny.
"You're so cute." Di Chu thought of something to say, and reached out to stroke his hair, as if stroking his own pet. After touching it, he felt that it felt good, so he rubbed it again, then turned his head and looked at the cultivation. In the direction of the door of the room, "Someone is coming."
After he turned his head, Kong Que let go of his suffocated breath instantly, his mind was filled with the smile of Di Chu just now, the two places where he was poked were still numb, his body strength seemed to be drained, His whole body was limp, as if he had suddenly developed a high fever, and his ears and cheeks were hot.
You're so cute……
The sound of his own heartbeat was all in his ears. He supported the incubator box with his hands, his fingertips trembled slightly, and stared at the kingfisher in the box looking up stupidly.
"There's something wrong with Dad..." He muttered to himself, his voice as thin as a gossamer.
Suddenly there are two baby birds of the father: "Jiu Jiu Jiu." Boss, what are you talking about, I don't understand.
As soon as Gu Fan entered the door, he found that the atmosphere in the incubator was not right. He saw Di Chu first, and nodded to him as a greeting. Then he noticed Kong Que who was leaning against the incubator against the rules. He was stunned and asked. : "Teacher, why is your face so red, are you sick?"
Kong Que's expression twitched, and he rushed to the top of the sky in shame and anger, glared at himself, a big apprentice who was not very smart, stood up straight and cursed: "In the future, if you let irrelevant people enter the training room to touch my son, you can pack up and go back to the academy go!"
After speaking, he boldly grabbed Di Chu's arm, and pulled him away with great strides.
Gu Fan: "...???" Son?What the hell?
……
After walking for 5 minutes, the temperature on Kong Que's body and face subsided, and his heartbeat returned to normal, but he was at a loss now.
In desperation just now, he grabbed Di Chu's arm and dragged him out of the cultivation room like a toy. Now Di Chu was still being pulled by him, and he didn't resist, but he probably wasn't in a good mood. He didn't know what to do. How to withdraw his hand reasonably and without making Di Chu angry.
He stared stiffly ahead, not daring to look back at Di Chu's expression.
The arm he was holding was very thin, but it would definitely not be weak. He knew how terrifying the energy released when this arm exploded.
I always feel that as soon as he lets go, he is not far from dying on the spot...
What should I do, why not take Di Chu to afternoon tea first, and distract his attention with delicious food...
"Are you going to take me to see the strange beast?" Di Chu's voice suddenly came from behind, very calm, not at all angry, "I smell the smell of the strange beast."
Only then did Kong Que notice that the two had arrived near the alien beast resettlement area, and hurried down the steps, pretending to calmly let go of Di Chu's hand, turned around and said with a smile: "Yes, the alien beast resettlement area is in front, and there are There are many strange beasts that everyone usually uses for research."
Another laugh.
Di Chu looked away and moved his fingers.
Compared with this kind of smile, he still prefers Kong Que's silly look before.
……
Most of the alien beasts in the resettlement area are small and medium-sized alien beasts, and the danger level is not high. Because they are used for research, they cannot be caught and eaten.After seeing it for a while, the emperor was not interested, and went to have a sumptuous afternoon tea with Kong Que.
After afternoon tea, Kong Que took Di Chu to the ancient plant cultivation area. It was not until dark that he led Di Chu to end today's visit and took him out for dinner.
During dinner, Kong Que mentioned that he wanted to invite Di Chu to do the task again.
A week ago, the hunter branch of X area suddenly sent news that a hunter found a cave full of ancient plants while doing a task in a very dangerous and remote mutant mountain forest, and took photos.After the photo was sent, the Academia Sinica attached great importance to it. Dean Zheng was going to lead a team to investigate it himself, and Kong Que naturally wanted to go too.
"Although there are photos, the hunter fell into a coma after talking about the situation and has not woken up. Everyone doesn't know the exact location of the cave. You have to find it when you get there. The inspection time is probably not too short. If you If you don't have time..."
"I have time." Di Chu replied simply, "I will accompany you, as a personal consultant." He added emphatically.
Kong Que swallowed the following persuasive words: "Then when the inspection time is fixed, I'll go find you?"
Di Chu stuffed a mouthful of different beast meat into his mouth, and nodded.
……
Early the next morning, Di Chu received a call from Kong Que, saying that the inspection team was going to leave this afternoon, and Cheng Xiuxiu was on the way to pick him up in his car, so he asked him to pack his luggage and get in the car as soon as possible.
Di Chu was puzzled: "Why are you in such a hurry all of a sudden?"
"The situation has changed." Kong Que spoke a little fast, and his tone was a little heavy, "The hunter who took the photo woke up for a while this morning and said that there were strange beasts moving in that cave. Ancient plants, so I decided to set off as soon as possible.”
It turned out to be like this, Di Chu answered and said he understood, hung up the phone and stuffed some necessities into his backpack casually, picked up the backpack, left a message for Fei Ye, and hurried out the door.
……
After rushing for a while, under the leadership of Cheng Xiu, Di Chu boarded the largest research vehicle parked at the entrance of the research institute, then turned into a small conference room, and saw a group of grandparents, uncles and aunts sitting inside.
Kong Que was sitting alone by the door. He was wearing a set of light casual clothes. He was still so handsome, which didn't match the style of other people's paintings.
"Here we come." Kong Que beckoned Di Chu to sit beside him, while Cheng Xiu greeted everyone, exited and closed the door.
The last passenger arrived, and the expedition vehicle set off immediately.
Kong Que introduced Di Chu to the people present, and smiled proudly: "Di Chu, currently a D-level hunter, is participating in the investigation as my personal consultant this time. The plants and the two kingfishers were all given to me by him."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the grandparents, uncles, and aunts in the car all changed when they looked at Di Chu, they were so direct that they almost glowed green.
Dichu: "..."
Kong Que gave a low cough, glanced at everyone to make them more reserved, then motioned to the gray-haired old man sitting opposite, and introduced to Di Chu: "This is Dean Zheng."
Dichu greeted politely.
Dean Zheng chuckled and was very kind: "I always heard Xiao Que mentioning you. Now that I see you, you are indeed a smart and beautiful boy. You don't have to be cautious here. Just say what you think, and don't have to worry about it."
Di Chu could sense his kindness and responded politely.
Afterwards, Kong Que introduced other people to Dichu and helped him get acquainted with the colleagues who will work together in the future.
After a round of pleasantries, the atmosphere was pretty good, and everyone started talking about serious business.
Dean Zheng projected some photos and said: "The goal of this investigation is this. It is the largest ancient plant growth area discovered by humans in the past 50 years, except for the valley in the Qingshan Reserve. The goal is to find it, and then find a way to preserve them intact. This time, the Hunter's Guild and the government will fully cooperate with our investigation, and strive to prevent the accident like last time from happening again."
Speaking of the last time, the atmosphere in the car was a little stagnant.
A researcher with a mustache couldn't help but uttered angrily: "If it weren't for those hunter-killers..."
Dean Zheng waved his hand: "Okay, it's useless to mention these things now, the important thing is to do well this time. Take it easy, let's first analyze the landform environment in this photo, and try to find as many clues as possible. .”
Everyone cheered up and began to study the photos.
Di Chu was a layman, so he could only tell that the pictures in the photos were indeed ancient plants, and he couldn't tell much about the others, so he didn't talk too much, and quietly listened to them chatting about some professional vocabulary.
As he listened, his eyes fell on Kong Que.
When he was in the Qingshan inspection area, he had already seen Kong Que's serious work, very focused and steady, making people feel very reliable, and he was the absolute core of the team.Taking a closer look this time, he saw something different again.
The current Kong Que faintly exudes a kind of introverted calmness that has been in a high position for a long time.
He tilted his head slightly to listen to Dean Zheng's words, his eyes fell on the photo, he tapped his cheek with one hand, and wrote something on the electronic notebook from time to time with the electronic pen in the other hand, his face was expressionless, the gentleness and tolerance were good , all the appearances shown to others disappeared, leaving only his truest appearance.
But the real Kong Que... looked a little indifferent, completely different from the soft expression he showed when he was holding the kingfisher.
No matter whether he looked up or down, he only had that photo in his eyes, and there was no one in it. His thick eyelashes drooped down, forming a cold arc at the end of his eyes.He seldom speaks, and when he speaks, he speaks in a positive and conclusive tone, and other people basically don't raise any objections to his words, as if what he said is definitely right.
He was obviously sitting among the crowd, but he seemed to be sitting far away from the crowd in a high hall, like a king listening to his courtiers, when he opened his thin lips, he spoke words that would determine life and death.
The distance was too close, and Di Chu could almost feel the indifferent and powerful aura around him.
Conflict started again, Di Chu looked straight at him.
How could an ancient human who grew up in a modern society have such a natural aura of superiority.
That kind of faint sense of self-importance, he had only seen in the past in the emperors of the world, and the great monsters who ruled over the land.
Was Kong Que the emperor in his previous life?
It's a pity that the way of heaven has collapsed, and he can no longer figure out the life and death of ordinary people, and he can't find out what kind of past Kong Que has.
He withdrew his gaze, moved back to Kong Que after a while, and stretched out his hand to poke him.
Kong Que paused as he recorded something, tried to ignore the itching on his arm, and looked sideways.So whether it is indifference, superiority, or dominance, it all becomes the moon in the mirror, and the doubts and concerns in those phoenix eyes condense into an obvious sentence: What's wrong?
Satisfied, Di Chu looked away, took out a piece of candy and put it in his hand.
This is the candy made by Fei Ye, made from his own leaves, which is said to have the effect of refreshing the mind, but Di Chu couldn't eat it, because the demon power in the leaves of Fei Ye was too weak to lift his spirits.
And Fei Ye didn't make these candies to refresh Di Chu's mind, but because he found that Di Chu was too picky about food, and wanted to force him to eat vegetarian food to balance his nutrition.
Kong Que looked at the casually packaged candy in his hand, with a smile in his eyes: "For me?"
"Eat." Di Chu only answered with one word.
So Kong Que obediently fed this green, weird sugar into his mouth, not afraid of diarrhea at all.
The researchers who were discussing stopped talking, stared blankly at the natural and gentle smile on Kong Que's face, and then looked at Di Chu next to him as if watching some miracle.
Dean Zheng chuckled again, and said, "It seems that what is said on the Internet is true, Xiao Que, when are you going to take Di Chu to go through the registration procedures? This kind of great thing about having a baby in the family, you have to set the table and have a good time." Just celebrate."
"..."
"???"
"!!!"
Kong Que frowned: "Adopt? Add a child?"
"That's right." Dean Zheng continued to smile, "This kid Dichu is really good, hard-working and excellent. These years you always talk about spending your whole life with studying and not planning to start a family and start a business. Everyone is worried about you. It's all over now. , you have a son, and the family is more popular, so everyone can feel relieved."
Son--
Kong Que only felt that a sledgehammer hit him twice on the head, which made him dizzy and nearly lifted his head, and the cool and refreshing sugar in his mouth turned into a sour and bitter taste.
He wanted to say what kind of mess this was, and he wanted to ask where the thunderous adoption rumors came from. As a result, his vocal cords rolled and his mouth opened, but the sugar stuck in his throat, and he tilted his head and coughed earth-shatteringly up.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, drink some water first, I know it's something to be happy about adding more people, calm down, don't let Di Chu see your new father's jokes." Dean Zheng poured water for Kong Que, joking with a smile.
As the new father, Kong Que's eyes darkened.
"I...cough cough...I'm not!" Kong Que swallowed the candy and saved his life. Seeing Dean Zheng's expression that I understand everything, the more he tried to explain, the more he couldn't organize the words, so he turned his head to look at it. Di Chu wanted to explain to him first, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Di Chu ask quietly, "Do you want to be my father?"
Kong Que choked, and coughed again earth-shatteringly.
He has never been so embarrassed as he is now.
"No...cough, no! Dichu, we are friends, friends!" Kong Que finally said the complete sentence, glanced at Dean Zheng and the others, his voice almost came out of his chest, "Who are you? Where did I hear that I want to collect... nonsense! Di Chu and I are very good friends!"
"Friend?" Dean Zheng blinked his confused little eyes, "But it's spread on the Internet, saying that you are going to adopt Di Chu, and the portraits of your parents and children have been changed."
...Damn parent-child avatars!
Kong Que was so dizzy, he hurriedly lowered his head and turned on the light brain to log in to the hunter app. Without wasting much effort, he found the #史世最优养father子# topic that didn’t drop much, and felt a fire burning from the soles of his feet. , and was chilled by the coolness coming from the side.
"Di Chu, I absolutely have no intention of being your father. I never did it before, and I never will again!" He didn't dare to look at Di Chu's expression, and he posted a Weibo while explaining. The exclamation mark that perfectly expressed his emotions at this time: I am not going to be the father of the emperor! ! ! ! !
The melon-eating crowd transformed by Pippi Shrimp is always fighting on the front line of gossip, and a comment popped up immediately: Is that being a mother?Hahahaha, male god, don't beat me up, I'm just kidding.
Kong Que blacklisted, deleted, and closed comments on Weibo in one go. After quitting Weibo, it took a while before he plucked up the courage to turn his head to look at Di Chu beside him.
Di Chu's expression was calm, he didn't look like he was angry, but his eyes were so deep that Kong Que couldn't understand.
"I really didn't intend to be your father..." Kong Que explained.
"I know." Di Chu's eyes were gloomy, and his tone was gloomy, "If you have one, I will bring a bouquet of chrysanthemums to see you on this day next year."
Kong Que: "..."
My heart is tired, sour, and faintly bitter.
"Are you mad at me?"
Di Chu shook his head, didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand and patted his arm, as if everything was kept silent.
Kong Que trembled in his heart.
What's the meaning?What does this beat mean?What does this look mean?He doesn't understand!He is so flustered!
Kong Que let go of the ears on his hat and smiled: "Didn't it scare you?"
"I know you're here." Smelled it, to be exact.
Di Chu rubbed Mao Mao's chin, Mao Mao meowed coquettishly, then rubbed his hand, turned and left.Di Chu watched it leave, patted the cat fur on his trousers, stood up and faced Kong Que.
"Let's eat first?" Kong Que reached out to help him remove a cat hair from his hair.
Di Chu raised his eyes to look at his hand, and replied, "Okay."
The two of them met this time to complete the last visit to the research institute that failed halfway. In order to prevent any accidents, this time Kong Que specially transferred a day of vacation that was not a weekend, and came to meet Emperor Chu in person.
For lunch, Kong Que took Di Chu to a barbecue restaurant.
The barbecue restaurant is not big, but the environment is quiet, the tables are far apart, and the lighting is very warm, giving people a feeling of home.
The two chose a corner and sat opposite each other. The dishes were served quickly. There were six dishes in total, including a roasted suckling pig-sized strange animal, a vegetable salad, a soup, and some refreshing side dishes. .
The small animal is fat, with stubby limbs, like a pig but without the big ears and nose of a pig, and it doesn't smell like pork, but with a bit of fruity aroma. The skin is burnt red and slightly brown, and finely chopped The seasoning is very attractive.
"This is a pig and mouse transported from the planet G5. The pig and mouse eat fruit. The meat has a fruity aroma and is not greasy. You can try it." The most tender layer of meat was cut off, and the slices were placed on Dichu's plate.
Di Chu naturally divided them into two, stretched out his hand to dissipate the strength from half of the meat, and put it on the plate in front of Kong Que.
Kong Que froze with the knife in his hand.
Di Chu looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
"No...it's okay." Kong Que's eyes curved gently, and he cut off one of the hind legs of the pig mouse and put it on Di Chu's plate, and asked while helping him adjust the sauce, "Go on?" The first time you told me that You Li suggested that you open Weibo and a personal live broadcast room, have you considered it, do you want to open it?"
His words reminded Di Chu.
"Open it." Dichu put down his chopsticks, turned on his optical brain, and opened Weibo on the spot, remembering Professor You Li's strategy of "If you don't know what to post, just take a picture of your daily lunch and dinner for fans to see", facing The pig mouse in front of me took a picture, clicked to upload, with the words: Eat this today.
Seeing his movements, Kong Que opened his brain and asked, "Already opened?"
Di Chu nodded, picked up the chopsticks again, took a bite of the meat, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.
Ever since he discovered that there were such things as exotic animal meat in this world, his three meals a day have all turned into various exotic animal meat.Exotic meat is very expensive, one meal is equivalent to a week's food money for ordinary people, Di Chu eats more and spends more, but fortunately he makes a lot of money playing in the arena, so eating like this will not make you poor.
Kong Que poured him a glass of water, followed his homepage to enter his newly opened Weibo, saw what he posted, the corners of his mouth curled up, followed, liked and reposted, and then turned off the optical brain.
The two of them were eating barbecue in a warm atmosphere, completely unaware that because of their actions, there was already a storm on Hunter's Weibo.
The process of wind and rain is basically like this.
The first wave, shock!After half a year, my husband/male god/Mr. Kong finally posted on Weibo!
The second wave, damn it!My husband/male god/Mr. Kong who only thinks about it when I publish major research results, actually likes and reposts other people's Weibo. It's a miracle!
The third wave, let me see which little fairy made the husband/male god/Mr. Kong make an exception...Huh?Why does it seem like a new Weibo... Fuck!Chuchu baby opened Weibo!
The fourth wave, ah!Pig rat!A whole one!One is worth my month's salary, jealousy makes me mutated and disordered!
Fifth wave, wait!Baby Chu Chu eating with her husband/male god/Mr. Kong? !Or is it just a coincidence that the likes of husband/male god/Mr. Kong are just slippery?
So crackling, #老公和宝宝包我去吃饮食的#, #孙先生发博#, #帝初开微博# and other topics quickly became popular, and the number of fans on Dichu’s Weibo began to skyrocket. tens of thousands of minutes.
……
On the way to the research institute after dinner, Kong Que sent a picture to Di Chu and said, "I promised to give you your avatar, it's already drawn, take a look."
avatar?
It was only then that Di Chu remembered that Kong Que had promised to draw a new portrait of him, and he lowered his head and turned on the optical brain to receive the picture.
The picture is not big, just the right size for a head portrait. In the painting, the small animal that looks like a rabbit but not a rabbit is facing out of the picture, its hair is blown up, its eyes are menacing, its four claws are like purple fire, and it is very majestic towards the outside of the picture Pounced and roared, very handsome!
Di Chu blushed and his breathing became heavier. He glanced at the picture with bright eyes, and then at Kong Que with bright eyes. He couldn't hide the love on his face: "Thank you, I like it very much!"
For the sake of this painting, he decided not to bother about Kong Que using his real body image as the head portrait and making him fat!
So Kong Que was happy and satisfied. He pretended to be reserved and smiled slightly, and said, "Your Weibo is still the original avatar. Do you want to use this?"
For your own Weibo, of course you must use your own body as your avatar!With such a handsome self, I must show all the half-demons a good look!
Without saying a word, Di Chu logged into the Hunter APP, ignored the Weibo private mailbox and comment prompts from Kuangzheng, and replaced his Weibo profile picture with this.
Kong Que also opened Weibo, looked first at his own profile picture, and then at Di Chu's profile picture, the same little animal, one quiet and one moving, one cute and one majestic, especially harmonious and warm.
Both of them are very happy, but the people who eat melons on the Internet are not so happy.
Their first reaction was to be amazed—wow, Di Chu has changed his avatar, the avatar looks so good!
The second reaction was shock - damn it!Why does this avatar look so similar to that of my husband/male god/Mr. Kong!All the paintings are of the male god's precious strange little beast!
The third reaction is——wait a minute, why does the painting style of Di Chu's avatar look so much like the handwriting of her husband/male god/Mr. Kong?Could it be...?
In the end, a conjecture arose in their minds—could it be... this is...the head portrait of a couple?
Everyone was messed up and mutated in the wind, and then everyone quickly calmed down and resolutely overturned this guess.
impossible!Absolutely impossible!
Dichu is still a child!Mr.'s old-fashioned, absolutely will never do anything to a child who has just grown up!And the husband must absolutely absolutely not know what a couple's headshot is!
Regarding the avatar and Weibo, it must be that the husband likes Di Chu very much, thinks he is cute, excellent and worth cultivating, so he is taking care of him!
It must be like this. Mister is 38 years old. Considering the age of ancient humans, it is the time when fatherly love overflows the most. Dichu is so obedient and kind. He even saved him twice. Maybe Mister wants to accept him as a pawn. adopted son?
The wind direction on Weibo became more and more crooked. When Fei Ye, who was doing tasks in the hunter's auction house, received a message from You Li and opened Weibo to check the situation, the netizens had unilaterally adopted Di Chu, the adopted son, for Kong Que. The topic of #史最优手养父子# has also become the most popular topic.
Fei Ye somehow felt a sense of crisis.
He sent a message to You Li: I think if Dichu wanted to choose an adoptive father, he would definitely choose me first, you think so too, right?
Yuli:? ? ?
What is right, will he gossip, how will he answer this!
……
At this time, Kong Que knew nothing about the sudden addition of an adopted son under his name, and was leading Di Chu into the center of the research institute, introducing the situation of the two kingfishers.
"They are very smart and very close. I have checked the information and have confirmed that they are a kind of ancient kingfisher. There is no sign of mutation on their bodies. They are pure-bred ancient animals, and their research value is very high."
Di Chu looked at the layout along the road and asked, "Then those eggs I gave you last time, are there any survivors?"
He also got those from several dead nests that had lost their females. Judging from the surrounding environment, most of them should be turtle eggs, a small part should be snake eggs, and only one is bird eggs.
In the dangerous mutant area, it is very difficult for pure ancient creatures to survive. Di Chu was able to find these because he found a lair where the monster race lived in the mutant area. There is a very weak barrier around the lair. Because of the protection of the enchantment, some ancient plants and ancient creatures in the nest escaped the fate of mutation.
But because the enchantment has lasted for too long and has almost exhausted its strength, the environment inside the enchantment is on the verge of collapse. If Dichu is delayed by half a month, there will be the last traces of ancient plants and ancient creatures in it. It will also disappear completely.
Mentioning this, Kong Que felt a little depressed, and shook his head: "Those eggs have been inactive for too long, and we tried our best to hatch only one successfully. It was a little turtle, but unfortunately it died soon."
Although he had expected it, after hearing his words, Di Chu still felt a bit sad.Everyone is a beast that has escaped the wheel of history by chance, and it is unknown how long they can live in the end.
He nodded to show that he understood, and did not speak.
"Sorry, I didn't keep the gift you gave me."
"You have tried your best." Di Chu looked up at him, and raised the corner of his mouth towards him, "Thank you for protecting them."
Di Chu seldom smiled. Since Kong Que knew him, he had only seen him smile once or twice, and the corners of his mouth were very shallow. He really wanted to see Di Chu smile more. Yes, but he doesn't like Di Chu's smile at all.
With a little sadness, a little bit of a loss of nowhere to be home, and a little bit of complicated gratitude.
strange reaction.
"But the ancient plants you gave me are all alive, and one of them has been confirmed to be a camellia. I'll show you to see it when it blooms." Kong Que quickly changed the subject, took two quick steps and reached out to press the button on the baby bird breeding room. "Look at the kingfishers first, they should be eating now."
He entered the cultivation room first, and wanted to say hello to the big apprentice who was guarding here, but saw a person standing inside who should not have appeared here.
"Teacher." Zhong Lin greeted him with a smile, and then looked at Di Chu who stepped back, "Mr. Di Chu, welcome to come again. I'm sorry I couldn't entertain you last time."
Di Chu silently held his breath, and nodded reservedly as a greeting.
Kong Que frowned, glanced at the cultivation room, and asked, "Where's Gu Fan?"
The cultivation room is not the kind of place where people can come in and out casually. Zhong Lin's appearance here made him feel very unhappy.
"Zhizhi has a little problem over there, and he went to help. I happen to be fine, so I'll help him take care of the kingfishers for a while." Zhong Lin replied, pointing to the large glass breeding room with a smile, "They just ate enough. ,resting."
Young birds, like young animals, need to eat and sleep more to grow well.
Di Chu looked over and saw two little birds huddled together sleeping on a soft cushion.
The kingfisher is a medium-sized water bird with a thick and straight beak, long and pointed. When it grows up, its feathers are a very beautiful combination of emerald blue and brown-yellow. When it flies up, it looks like a small blue jewel burning with a warm flame. pretty.
But the kingfisher was not very good-looking when it was a child. Its fur is relatively thick and hard. The feathers on the back of the head are gray-black, and the belly is warm yellow, which is very inconspicuous.
Di Chu didn't like birds, but these two were touched by himself after all, and he had eaten a little of his strength, so he accepted them well.
He stepped over and reached out to touch the incubator, but was stopped by Zhong Lin eagerly: "Don't touch it! They are very fragile and sensitive to strange smells, and they are resting now. If they are frightened, they may have a stress reaction."
Fragile?
Di Chu felt incredible.
He looked at the two little kingfishers in the incubator with a faint spirit, and withdrew his hand with a strange expression on his face.
There should be ghosts in the ancestors of these two, that is, the kind of little goblins who know how to practice, have a preliminary enlightenment, and only wait for the accumulation of transformation to become demons. about there.
And these two also ate some of the power he gave in the eggs, and they were stronger than ordinary spirits.
"If you have time... you can tell them stories." It is good for enlightening their wisdom, and maybe it can also activate their spirit blood.
"Try to only let ancient humans take care of them, that will make them more comfortable. If you must use new humans, remember to choose plants and birds with a gentle temperament." He thought for a while and added.
Spirits are very sensitive to the breath of half-demons. Foxes like Zhong Lin who have a strong smell and have birds in their recipes will make the young birds feel very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes to look at Zhong Lin, then at Kong Que, his eyes were gloomy.
Back then, Kong Que had promised him that he would take good care of these two little guys, but in the end he sent a stinky fox over to smoke them... Liar.
Zhong Lin felt dizzy from the look in Di Chu's eyes. He had an inexplicable feeling of being disgusted. Thinking of what he said, he felt that he meant something and was taking revenge on himself. He hurriedly turned around and explained to Kong Que: "Teacher, I I have been disinfected before coming in, and I wear gloves when feeding, to ensure that all operations are strictly in accordance with the regulations. Mr. Dichu doesn't understand these things, and he may have misunderstood me..."
"Go out and call Gu Fan back." Kong Que interrupted him, very dissatisfied with his behavior here, trying to suppress his temper, "Your project has been completed, go to the management office in a while, and send my The access authority is cancelled."
Zhong Lin's expression changed, and his voice raised unconsciously: "Teacher, I—"
The two baby birds that were sleeping were awakened by his voice, suddenly Qi Qi raised his head and opened his eyes, and then saw Di Chu standing outside the box.
The two pairs of doudou eyes, which were still confused at first, opened wide in an instant, and suddenly they all rushed to the edge of the glass, flapped their wings while pecking at the glass, and chirped at Di Chu.
Di Chu twitched his eyebrows and took a step back.
You still want to eat his power, you insatiable stinky bird, don't even think about it.
The kingfisher sang more urgently, and even started to hit the glass.
Kong Que's face had already sunk, and he didn't bother to say a word to Zhong Lin. He turned on the optical brain and sent a message to Gu Fan, then walked quickly to the incubator and operated it a few times quickly. spread out, and calmed the kingfisher who seemed to be frightened by Zhong Lin's shout.
It was the first time Zhong Lin saw Kong Que so obviously angry. He panicked, pursed his lips and swallowed the ensuing intercession and argument, and glanced at Di Chu who caused all this. After saying "I'll call Gu Fan", he turned and left.
Di Chu felt that this stinky fox was inexplicable. Last time it seduced him with a fake smile, but this time it released hostility towards him again. The change in mood was so great that it made people completely clueless.
In the incubator, the kingfisher, which had just stabilized for a few seconds, became excited again and kept bumping into the box.
Kong Que was very anxious. The pacifying potion should not be used frequently, as it would damage the young birds' bodies, but if they were allowed to hit like this, there might be some problems.
Di Chu squinted at the two greedy birds, saw Kong Que frowning, walked over reluctantly, stretched out his hand to open the box, and put his finger inside.
Immediately, the baby bird rushed towards his hand, pecked at his fingers, and rubbed against his fingers, making cheerful chirps and flapping its wings like a small fan.
Kong Que: "..."
He turned his head to look at Di Chu.
"They're full and want to find someone to play with." Di Chu opened his eyes and said nonsense, waving his hands out as he spoke.
The young bird rushed to stop it, but unfortunately it didn't stop, and fell onto the cushion.
Afraid that something might happen to them, Kong Que hurriedly reached out to pick them up, put them in his palm and touched them.
The little bird that was still struggling at first became quiet and docile in his palm, no longer looking for Di Chu, and huddled obediently, tilting its head from time to time and rubbing the fingertips that Kong Que touched, blinking and blinking, very dependent on intimacy look.
The emperor was surprised.
These two little monsters actually showed a submissive and flattering attitude towards Kong Que, but Kong Que was just an ordinary ancient human being, not a big monster... Was it a baby bird plot?
"Sorry, there was a little accident. They are usually taken care of by my big apprentice Gu Fan. He is an ancient human being and will not scare them." Kong Que's explanation interrupted Di Chu's thoughts, "I didn't Thinking that Zhong Lin would appear here... I did not manage well, I promised you that I would take good care of them, but in the end I let you see this."
As he spoke, he carried the two kingfishers and put them into the incubator with great care.
Looking at his gentle movements and slightly frowning brows, Di Chu suddenly felt that this was his real appearance, soft and careful... It felt very bullying, so he couldn't help reaching out and poking him.
Kong Que's body froze, and he turned his head to look at him while clutching the poked waist, only felt that the poked place was numb and hot, as if he had been electrocuted by something.
Both of them were standing in front of the incubator, so close that Di Chu could see the surprise and bewilderment in Kong Que's eyes.
His expression was blank, his phoenix eyes were slightly wide open, and his body kept a half-bent posture stupidly. His expression was not mature and gentle when he was outside, nor was he kind and tolerant in front of Di Chu, but simply dumbfounded, like a bird. A frightened animal.
Di Chu's eyes were slightly bent, and he poked his arm again.
Kong Que's eyes widened, and his other hand covered his arm, so his body posture became more and more funny.
"You're so cute." Di Chu thought of something to say, and reached out to stroke his hair, as if stroking his own pet. After touching it, he felt that it felt good, so he rubbed it again, then turned his head and looked at the cultivation. In the direction of the door of the room, "Someone is coming."
After he turned his head, Kong Que let go of his suffocated breath instantly, his mind was filled with the smile of Di Chu just now, the two places where he was poked were still numb, his body strength seemed to be drained, His whole body was limp, as if he had suddenly developed a high fever, and his ears and cheeks were hot.
You're so cute……
The sound of his own heartbeat was all in his ears. He supported the incubator box with his hands, his fingertips trembled slightly, and stared at the kingfisher in the box looking up stupidly.
"There's something wrong with Dad..." He muttered to himself, his voice as thin as a gossamer.
Suddenly there are two baby birds of the father: "Jiu Jiu Jiu." Boss, what are you talking about, I don't understand.
As soon as Gu Fan entered the door, he found that the atmosphere in the incubator was not right. He saw Di Chu first, and nodded to him as a greeting. Then he noticed Kong Que who was leaning against the incubator against the rules. He was stunned and asked. : "Teacher, why is your face so red, are you sick?"
Kong Que's expression twitched, and he rushed to the top of the sky in shame and anger, glared at himself, a big apprentice who was not very smart, stood up straight and cursed: "In the future, if you let irrelevant people enter the training room to touch my son, you can pack up and go back to the academy go!"
After speaking, he boldly grabbed Di Chu's arm, and pulled him away with great strides.
Gu Fan: "...???" Son?What the hell?
……
After walking for 5 minutes, the temperature on Kong Que's body and face subsided, and his heartbeat returned to normal, but he was at a loss now.
In desperation just now, he grabbed Di Chu's arm and dragged him out of the cultivation room like a toy. Now Di Chu was still being pulled by him, and he didn't resist, but he probably wasn't in a good mood. He didn't know what to do. How to withdraw his hand reasonably and without making Di Chu angry.
He stared stiffly ahead, not daring to look back at Di Chu's expression.
The arm he was holding was very thin, but it would definitely not be weak. He knew how terrifying the energy released when this arm exploded.
I always feel that as soon as he lets go, he is not far from dying on the spot...
What should I do, why not take Di Chu to afternoon tea first, and distract his attention with delicious food...
"Are you going to take me to see the strange beast?" Di Chu's voice suddenly came from behind, very calm, not at all angry, "I smell the smell of the strange beast."
Only then did Kong Que notice that the two had arrived near the alien beast resettlement area, and hurried down the steps, pretending to calmly let go of Di Chu's hand, turned around and said with a smile: "Yes, the alien beast resettlement area is in front, and there are There are many strange beasts that everyone usually uses for research."
Another laugh.
Di Chu looked away and moved his fingers.
Compared with this kind of smile, he still prefers Kong Que's silly look before.
……
Most of the alien beasts in the resettlement area are small and medium-sized alien beasts, and the danger level is not high. Because they are used for research, they cannot be caught and eaten.After seeing it for a while, the emperor was not interested, and went to have a sumptuous afternoon tea with Kong Que.
After afternoon tea, Kong Que took Di Chu to the ancient plant cultivation area. It was not until dark that he led Di Chu to end today's visit and took him out for dinner.
During dinner, Kong Que mentioned that he wanted to invite Di Chu to do the task again.
A week ago, the hunter branch of X area suddenly sent news that a hunter found a cave full of ancient plants while doing a task in a very dangerous and remote mutant mountain forest, and took photos.After the photo was sent, the Academia Sinica attached great importance to it. Dean Zheng was going to lead a team to investigate it himself, and Kong Que naturally wanted to go too.
"Although there are photos, the hunter fell into a coma after talking about the situation and has not woken up. Everyone doesn't know the exact location of the cave. You have to find it when you get there. The inspection time is probably not too short. If you If you don't have time..."
"I have time." Di Chu replied simply, "I will accompany you, as a personal consultant." He added emphatically.
Kong Que swallowed the following persuasive words: "Then when the inspection time is fixed, I'll go find you?"
Di Chu stuffed a mouthful of different beast meat into his mouth, and nodded.
……
Early the next morning, Di Chu received a call from Kong Que, saying that the inspection team was going to leave this afternoon, and Cheng Xiuxiu was on the way to pick him up in his car, so he asked him to pack his luggage and get in the car as soon as possible.
Di Chu was puzzled: "Why are you in such a hurry all of a sudden?"
"The situation has changed." Kong Que spoke a little fast, and his tone was a little heavy, "The hunter who took the photo woke up for a while this morning and said that there were strange beasts moving in that cave. Ancient plants, so I decided to set off as soon as possible.”
It turned out to be like this, Di Chu answered and said he understood, hung up the phone and stuffed some necessities into his backpack casually, picked up the backpack, left a message for Fei Ye, and hurried out the door.
……
After rushing for a while, under the leadership of Cheng Xiu, Di Chu boarded the largest research vehicle parked at the entrance of the research institute, then turned into a small conference room, and saw a group of grandparents, uncles and aunts sitting inside.
Kong Que was sitting alone by the door. He was wearing a set of light casual clothes. He was still so handsome, which didn't match the style of other people's paintings.
"Here we come." Kong Que beckoned Di Chu to sit beside him, while Cheng Xiu greeted everyone, exited and closed the door.
The last passenger arrived, and the expedition vehicle set off immediately.
Kong Que introduced Di Chu to the people present, and smiled proudly: "Di Chu, currently a D-level hunter, is participating in the investigation as my personal consultant this time. The plants and the two kingfishers were all given to me by him."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the grandparents, uncles, and aunts in the car all changed when they looked at Di Chu, they were so direct that they almost glowed green.
Dichu: "..."
Kong Que gave a low cough, glanced at everyone to make them more reserved, then motioned to the gray-haired old man sitting opposite, and introduced to Di Chu: "This is Dean Zheng."
Dichu greeted politely.
Dean Zheng chuckled and was very kind: "I always heard Xiao Que mentioning you. Now that I see you, you are indeed a smart and beautiful boy. You don't have to be cautious here. Just say what you think, and don't have to worry about it."
Di Chu could sense his kindness and responded politely.
Afterwards, Kong Que introduced other people to Dichu and helped him get acquainted with the colleagues who will work together in the future.
After a round of pleasantries, the atmosphere was pretty good, and everyone started talking about serious business.
Dean Zheng projected some photos and said: "The goal of this investigation is this. It is the largest ancient plant growth area discovered by humans in the past 50 years, except for the valley in the Qingshan Reserve. The goal is to find it, and then find a way to preserve them intact. This time, the Hunter's Guild and the government will fully cooperate with our investigation, and strive to prevent the accident like last time from happening again."
Speaking of the last time, the atmosphere in the car was a little stagnant.
A researcher with a mustache couldn't help but uttered angrily: "If it weren't for those hunter-killers..."
Dean Zheng waved his hand: "Okay, it's useless to mention these things now, the important thing is to do well this time. Take it easy, let's first analyze the landform environment in this photo, and try to find as many clues as possible. .”
Everyone cheered up and began to study the photos.
Di Chu was a layman, so he could only tell that the pictures in the photos were indeed ancient plants, and he couldn't tell much about the others, so he didn't talk too much, and quietly listened to them chatting about some professional vocabulary.
As he listened, his eyes fell on Kong Que.
When he was in the Qingshan inspection area, he had already seen Kong Que's serious work, very focused and steady, making people feel very reliable, and he was the absolute core of the team.Taking a closer look this time, he saw something different again.
The current Kong Que faintly exudes a kind of introverted calmness that has been in a high position for a long time.
He tilted his head slightly to listen to Dean Zheng's words, his eyes fell on the photo, he tapped his cheek with one hand, and wrote something on the electronic notebook from time to time with the electronic pen in the other hand, his face was expressionless, the gentleness and tolerance were good , all the appearances shown to others disappeared, leaving only his truest appearance.
But the real Kong Que... looked a little indifferent, completely different from the soft expression he showed when he was holding the kingfisher.
No matter whether he looked up or down, he only had that photo in his eyes, and there was no one in it. His thick eyelashes drooped down, forming a cold arc at the end of his eyes.He seldom speaks, and when he speaks, he speaks in a positive and conclusive tone, and other people basically don't raise any objections to his words, as if what he said is definitely right.
He was obviously sitting among the crowd, but he seemed to be sitting far away from the crowd in a high hall, like a king listening to his courtiers, when he opened his thin lips, he spoke words that would determine life and death.
The distance was too close, and Di Chu could almost feel the indifferent and powerful aura around him.
Conflict started again, Di Chu looked straight at him.
How could an ancient human who grew up in a modern society have such a natural aura of superiority.
That kind of faint sense of self-importance, he had only seen in the past in the emperors of the world, and the great monsters who ruled over the land.
Was Kong Que the emperor in his previous life?
It's a pity that the way of heaven has collapsed, and he can no longer figure out the life and death of ordinary people, and he can't find out what kind of past Kong Que has.
He withdrew his gaze, moved back to Kong Que after a while, and stretched out his hand to poke him.
Kong Que paused as he recorded something, tried to ignore the itching on his arm, and looked sideways.So whether it is indifference, superiority, or dominance, it all becomes the moon in the mirror, and the doubts and concerns in those phoenix eyes condense into an obvious sentence: What's wrong?
Satisfied, Di Chu looked away, took out a piece of candy and put it in his hand.
This is the candy made by Fei Ye, made from his own leaves, which is said to have the effect of refreshing the mind, but Di Chu couldn't eat it, because the demon power in the leaves of Fei Ye was too weak to lift his spirits.
And Fei Ye didn't make these candies to refresh Di Chu's mind, but because he found that Di Chu was too picky about food, and wanted to force him to eat vegetarian food to balance his nutrition.
Kong Que looked at the casually packaged candy in his hand, with a smile in his eyes: "For me?"
"Eat." Di Chu only answered with one word.
So Kong Que obediently fed this green, weird sugar into his mouth, not afraid of diarrhea at all.
The researchers who were discussing stopped talking, stared blankly at the natural and gentle smile on Kong Que's face, and then looked at Di Chu next to him as if watching some miracle.
Dean Zheng chuckled again, and said, "It seems that what is said on the Internet is true, Xiao Que, when are you going to take Di Chu to go through the registration procedures? This kind of great thing about having a baby in the family, you have to set the table and have a good time." Just celebrate."
"..."
"???"
"!!!"
Kong Que frowned: "Adopt? Add a child?"
"That's right." Dean Zheng continued to smile, "This kid Dichu is really good, hard-working and excellent. These years you always talk about spending your whole life with studying and not planning to start a family and start a business. Everyone is worried about you. It's all over now. , you have a son, and the family is more popular, so everyone can feel relieved."
Son--
Kong Que only felt that a sledgehammer hit him twice on the head, which made him dizzy and nearly lifted his head, and the cool and refreshing sugar in his mouth turned into a sour and bitter taste.
He wanted to say what kind of mess this was, and he wanted to ask where the thunderous adoption rumors came from. As a result, his vocal cords rolled and his mouth opened, but the sugar stuck in his throat, and he tilted his head and coughed earth-shatteringly up.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, drink some water first, I know it's something to be happy about adding more people, calm down, don't let Di Chu see your new father's jokes." Dean Zheng poured water for Kong Que, joking with a smile.
As the new father, Kong Que's eyes darkened.
"I...cough cough...I'm not!" Kong Que swallowed the candy and saved his life. Seeing Dean Zheng's expression that I understand everything, the more he tried to explain, the more he couldn't organize the words, so he turned his head to look at it. Di Chu wanted to explain to him first, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Di Chu ask quietly, "Do you want to be my father?"
Kong Que choked, and coughed again earth-shatteringly.
He has never been so embarrassed as he is now.
"No...cough, no! Dichu, we are friends, friends!" Kong Que finally said the complete sentence, glanced at Dean Zheng and the others, his voice almost came out of his chest, "Who are you? Where did I hear that I want to collect... nonsense! Di Chu and I are very good friends!"
"Friend?" Dean Zheng blinked his confused little eyes, "But it's spread on the Internet, saying that you are going to adopt Di Chu, and the portraits of your parents and children have been changed."
...Damn parent-child avatars!
Kong Que was so dizzy, he hurriedly lowered his head and turned on the light brain to log in to the hunter app. Without wasting much effort, he found the #史世最优养father子# topic that didn’t drop much, and felt a fire burning from the soles of his feet. , and was chilled by the coolness coming from the side.
"Di Chu, I absolutely have no intention of being your father. I never did it before, and I never will again!" He didn't dare to look at Di Chu's expression, and he posted a Weibo while explaining. The exclamation mark that perfectly expressed his emotions at this time: I am not going to be the father of the emperor! ! ! ! !
The melon-eating crowd transformed by Pippi Shrimp is always fighting on the front line of gossip, and a comment popped up immediately: Is that being a mother?Hahahaha, male god, don't beat me up, I'm just kidding.
Kong Que blacklisted, deleted, and closed comments on Weibo in one go. After quitting Weibo, it took a while before he plucked up the courage to turn his head to look at Di Chu beside him.
Di Chu's expression was calm, he didn't look like he was angry, but his eyes were so deep that Kong Que couldn't understand.
"I really didn't intend to be your father..." Kong Que explained.
"I know." Di Chu's eyes were gloomy, and his tone was gloomy, "If you have one, I will bring a bouquet of chrysanthemums to see you on this day next year."
Kong Que: "..."
My heart is tired, sour, and faintly bitter.
"Are you mad at me?"
Di Chu shook his head, didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand and patted his arm, as if everything was kept silent.
Kong Que trembled in his heart.
What's the meaning?What does this beat mean?What does this look mean?He doesn't understand!He is so flustered!
