Chapter 61 Apartment and Qionglin

Chapter 60 Apartment and Qionglin

Luo Qi couldn't bear the sequelae of space travel for the second time, and passed out directly.

He fell into a dreamless slumber, a rare relief from the chaos that had been going on in his mind for the past few days.This sleep was very heavy, although it didn't last long, but he still gained a kind of peace.As if he had been an endlessly rising balloon before, the fragile rubber outer membrane was his only armor, and the thread tied underneath was the roots that could not reach the soil, but now, his roots were vaguely There is a little strength in the upper body, so that he no longer drifts endlessly towards the abyss above his head.

Roach woke up in a peaceful state, slowly opened his eyes, but suddenly realized that he was still submerged in the water.There was a "boom" in his head, this shock was no small matter, his body instinctively struggled violently, and as a result, his legs cramped, and he slid into the water instead.

He took a sip of water in astonishment, reached into the bathtub with his hands, and lifted him up through his armpits.He was coughing, panicked, his muscles tensed, and the cramping pain in his leg still irritated him.

"Roach." A deep voice called him, dragging him out of the water, "Calm down."

His vision became clearer, he saw Du Zhengyi's face, saw the silver chain in the middle of his collar, saw the sleeves of his shirt rolled up high, and his arms were wet.Then he realized that he had been panting violently, as if trying to force the last breath out of his lungs.

"Luo Qi." Du Zhengyi lowered his voice and frowned, as if he had just taken a mouthful of bitter medicine.

"Du Zhengyi!" He yelled in pain, and then felt like a milk dog, anxiously venting his grievances to the only person he could trust.

This is so stupid.He squeezed his mouth shut and swallowed his gasp, quelling his hyperventilation.His eyes were still spinning wildly, looking at his surroundings, and all he saw was an ordinary bathroom, decorated with the most ordinary and honest large blocks of pure white tiles.He looked down and saw himself sitting in the bathtub, half submerged in a vat of warm water.

"Are you all right?" Du Zhengyi observed him and slowly let go of his hand.

His eyes were still wide open, but he nodded, and Du Zhengyi carefully let go of him completely.

"I put you in the bathtub to help you recover your body temperature, and let you take a bath by the way." Du Zhengyi said, even if he saw the horrified look on Roach's face just now, he felt a little shocking, Perhaps it was for this reason that he added another sentence, "I'm sorry."

Although Luo Qi looked dull, he still had some reactions. He raised his head slowly, and looked at Du Zhengyi suspiciously with those big black eyes.Du Zhengyi is not a good boy who is united and friendly. No matter when it is, apologizing is not suitable for his style of painting, let alone his current role is a lifesaver.

As soon as Du Zheng saw that Roach had regained his energy, the two looked at each other for a while, as if they couldn't accept that there was such a heavy friendship between them now.Especially in this friendship, one party owes the other a serious debt. Whether they are the giver or the receiver, they are not used to it.

"Do you need me...to help you take a bath?" Du Zhengyi asked hesitantly as he evaluated his situation.

Roach shuddered.

"Okay." Du Zhengyi said, relaxing a little, "You are smart. I found some clothes and put them on the washing machine next to the door. You can change after you take a shower."

"Where is this place?" Roach asked, he didn't think this place was like a hotel.

"Where else could it be? In your situation, there is no other place to stay." Du Zhengyi said, "This is my home."

After he finished speaking, he waited for a while. Seeing that Roach's bewilderment seemed to be worse than before, he expected that he would not have anything to say for a while, so he turned and walked out of the bathroom, closing the door tightly.

Roach sat in the bathtub for a long time, and finally realized that if this had been a few days ago, my God, he would have jumped up and searched the bathroom first.It's Du Zhengyi's home. I always feel that there are many secrets hidden, and there are many mysterious hobbies to be discovered.To have the opportunity to visit Du Zhengyi's house, it feels like finally taking the opportunity to turn Du Zhengyi upside down, shake him hard, and see how weird and weird he can reveal.

But things are changing too quickly, and Du Zhengyi, who is so talented that he is against the sky, is not a difficult puzzle to solve. What is ridiculous is that Luo Qi now wished he could lift himself upside down and shake his head hard. Shake, see how many secrets you can shake out.

Sometimes it's not too difficult, or at least not a disturbing thing, to unravel other people's secrets, but unraveling your own is like trying to lick your own nose.Not only is it useless to jump on the bench, but it is also very disgusting.

Luo Qi withdrew into the water, thinking that he was so frightened just now, and felt a little exhausted.

He leaned in the bathtub, slowly relaxing his body in the warm water, feeling a long-lost comfort.This kind of comfort made his mind confused, so that he realized when the water in the bathtub was about to cool down. He hadn't heard any noise since he woke up. It was as quiet as he had returned to his previous life. .

Du Zhengyi poured himself another cup of tea, and sat on a cushion on the ground, which was shaped like a futon.He let himself not think about anything, and was at ease for a rare moment.

The door was opened behind him, and Roach stepped out, and by now, he was a bit used to the sound of Roach's procrastinating footsteps.It is slower than ordinary mages, and the soles of their shoes grind on the ground longer, lazily, which is Roach's unique rhythm, which is inversely proportional to the speed of Roach's thinking.

"Brother——" Luo Qi walked halfway, and called him behind him, slurred and unwilling.It sounds like even his mental state has recovered a lot, at least he is no longer in the abnormal state of being overly frightened.

He turned around and saw Roach in his shirt and trousers rolled up at the hem, which was funny.But he couldn't laugh now, and he had to pretend to be deep and calm and pointed to another cushion on the ground, indicating that Roach could sit down.

Roach walked over with a sullen face, and he poured a cup of tea for Roach. Roach sat down in a proper manner, and his posture on a cushion was a bit funny. He didn't even look around on purpose.In fact, Luo Qi's spirit has recovered at least half. It is said that his spirit of gossip should have recovered a lot, so he should be very curious now.But it seems that the huge blow and mental trauma did make him mature a lot.

"I didn't expect you to come to my aid."

He watched Roach speak honestly, and slowly figured out that sometimes the biggest problem with this kid is that he is too serious. Even though he looks funny, in the final analysis, he is still too serious.

"If you want to say thank you to me, forget it, don't be so serious." Du Zhengyi interrupted what he was about to say later, "I didn't want to do it at first, but I did it later, so there is nothing to say."

A frustrating flinch flitted across Luo Qi's face. Du Zhengyi looked away and stopped looking at him, but the window was too high for him to see out of the window, and sitting against the wall looked like a fool. He never thought about it. One day he will bring others to the place where he lives, so when he chose the house, he did not expect today.

"But you saved my life." Roach didn't care how strange it was to sit under the window, Fangzheng's room was not big, and he seemed to muster up his courage again, "It saved me from dying so ridiculously, yes I want to thank you very much."

"No one can die with dignity." Du Zhengyi said, "It's ridiculous when people die."

Luo Qi's spine was bent a little by the weight of Du Zhengyi's answer. A man as awesome as Du Zhengyi should not have said such a thing, but now Du Zhengyi's expression is indeed a little unhappy.

Luo Qi was silent for a while, Du Zhengyi didn't speak, and the atmosphere became even more depressed.

Roach sat up straight, "Anyway, according to Chinese culture, you saved my life, and now you should be responsible for my life."

"Is that what the Chinese culture says?" Du Zhengyi turned his head, "Are you the uncle who touches porcelain on the street?"

Roach grinned, and Du Zheng stared at him for a while, looking at his smiling face in disbelief.After a long while, Du Zhengyi said, "God, you really don't care."

Roach put away his smiling face, but after rubbing his face, the expression on his face was still very happy.He moved on the ground, curled up and lay down, with his head resting on the cushion.

"I can lend you the bed today. Go to bed and sleep when you are tired." Du Zhengyi said lightly.

"No need," Roach murmured, "I feel more secure here."

Du Zhengyi didn't answer him for a long time, but just drank the cup of tea slowly.Roach closed his eyes, and after a while Du Zhengyi put his hand on his face, his eyes and forehead were covered under his palm.

Du Zhengyi no longer remembered whether he had a younger brother, it seemed that he did, and it was said that he did.Leaving home at a young age made him have very little memory of his brothers and sisters, but now he probably thinks that if he had a brother, it would be like this.I feel a little sarcastic towards him in my heart, want to derogate a few words from time to time, and feel a little emotional about the unsuspecting reliance he provides.Because of this, he felt a lot of guilt in his heart, and he didn't know what to do, even the things he insisted on were constantly being revised.

Thousands of miles away, Qionglin.

Qionglin's search work finally made progress in stages. A group of unlucky ghosts who were assigned to search in the forest were included in the area where the garbage dump was searched.This group of magicians is the fringe figures among the Qionglin magicians. Two autistic patients and three weirdos have to walk through the Qionglin garbage dump.

This piece of junkyard is connected by a series of complex teleportation magic to each room in Qionglin central building.The mages use these systems to automatically dispose of the garbage, and the garbage will stay here for at least three days after being delivered here.Every three days, a special magician will come to clean up the garbage. Most of the work is to perform decomposition operations. This is a magic operation opposite to summoning and condensing magic, which converts existing entities into basic substances.

The five fringe mages who were in charge of the search shuttled endlessly in the garbage dump. The autistic mage hardly said anything, but one of the three strange creatures was full of curiosity about the garbage dump.This place is called a garbage dump, but it is also a big market for privacy. From the glittering magic roses to the letters that were not burned according to the rules, there are simply too many secrets to be discovered here. It is also a big adventure to visit here openly.

This strange creature inevitably went deeper and deeper in the garbage dump, and at this moment, a high-energy radiation stood out like a big light bulb in the dark.He walked over involuntarily. At that time, he never thought that this moment on the junkyard would become the pinnacle of his life.Afterwards, not only did he have the opportunity to have an in-depth talk with Archmage Zuo Yu, and thus became a good friend who could talk to each other from time to time, he was also received by Venerable Qionglin, just a little short of points to get the Archmage Medal.

Later, he wrote many articles and published them in magician's publications, describing his prudent and meticulous search work. His extremely rigorous working attitude allowed him to discover the priceless and significant Qionglin defense crystal in the garbage dump.Afterwards, he thought that he had already thought about it a long time ago. The lotus burners would not take the risk of taking away this crystal that would cause them to be chased and killed by all the archmages, so of course the most appropriate way is to temporarily hide the crystal and buy themselves some time to do things .It is of course impossible to hide the powerful crystal in the temple surrounded by mages in the center of Qionglin, so the only way is to throw the crystal into Qionglin's garbage collection system.As time went on, he decided that he had actually thought of it beforehand, which is why he seriously searched the junkyard for the Guardian Crystal.

In the end, that's what he said to His Majesty and others. The mage's internal commendation meeting raised him to a very high level, comparing him with Sherlock Holmes in human legend.

The only flaw is how to explain that there is no trace of any mage touching in the defensive crystal.

His explanation for this is that the magician who shut down and stole the defense crystal is a hidden genius. He invented a new way to fight against the defense crystal, which can counteract the absorption of his energy by the defense crystal, thus Unable to leave traces.

Han Yi, a senior mage in Qionglin, criticized his statement, thinking that his explanation method completely fell into agnosticism, in other words, it was all fart.But he has moved on to writing a new [-]-word article calling for vigilance against the emergence of new magic formulas, and has received a worried response from many magicians.So Han Yi's words did not attract too much attention, not to mention that Han Yi actually walked into the attack range of the scavengers during the Qionglin search. This kind of stupid behavior really makes it difficult for people to believe that his sanity is normal.

　This is the first time I write an article, I have no idea, I hope everyone can comment more...
