10. Wait four

The hot afternoon seals people under the air conditioner, and in the evening, a gap is revealed, allowing people to breathe. Taking advantage of the fact that the temperature was dropping and the sky was getting dark, Su Yuexue rushed home, saying that the witch forced her to complete the arcane exercises, otherwise she would not be allowed to come out to investigate the mysterious incident.

However, Chen Li guessed, or was sure, that her sister actually asked her to do her homework, and she was not allowed to come out to play until she finished it.

"See you tomorrow, then, Mr. Hero! I'll go back today and re-sign a contract with the witch, and tomorrow I'll be able to come to work with you, a hero! Then let's destroy the source of evil and maintain the peace of the cats in this neighborhood! ”

After leaving a sentence in a hurry, the door of the store closed with a "click", and the fiery figure ran happily, the sound swirling in the empty store, and landed next to the nose-picking water jade.

Chen Li was taken aback by Shui Yu's sudden and funny movements. The water elemental has a hairy nose, and I don't know where she learned this action. Shui Yu flicked a ball of clear water disdainfully, and her dissatisfaction hung on her face, "Cut, have you come back to your senses?" Enough of the merry life? Are you willing to come back? ”

"Why do you hear your tone so resentful?"

"Someone's scum left his partner for a woman, didn't come back for an afternoon, he was happy enough, leaving a few of us to guard the empty store door, tsk, you talk about it, how can there be such a scumbag!" Shui Yu sat on the edge of the sink, stepped on the water surface with a pop, and said angrily.

"Well, not an afternoon, right? Su Yuexue and I went out for a while at noon, to be exact, thirty-four minutes and twenty-two seconds. Chen Li didn't understand why Shui Yu was unhappy, and said carefully.

“。。 Old Divorce, do you know why you have been single for so many years? Shui Yu looked at him silently and sighed.

"What? Maybe I'm too handsome? Chen Li was stunned for a moment, touched his chin, and said seriously.

"Get out." Shui Yu glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Do you think that when a woman gets angry at you and says that you have been away for too long, you correct her and accurate the time to the second, is it the right answer?" ”

"Hmm... It seems that too, when the seconds come, it seems that I am very calculating. Chen Li suddenly realized, "I should be accurate to the score, right!" ”

“。。 You're out of help. Shui Yu held her forehead and gritted her teeth and said, "At this time, should you decisively rush over, hug that woman, tell her that you will never make her wait for a long time, and then take out a gift to comfort her?!" Got it! ”

"Oh. . . And this kind of operation. Chen Li scratched his head and thought about it seriously, "But, shouldn't true feelings be used as a bond between people?" Isn't it good to tempt with gifts and sustain emotions with objects? I remember that when I used to do arcane experiments, when I domesticated wild beasts, I used food to seduce, and then... The voice became lower and lower under Shui Yu's cold eyes, and finally closed his mouth in amusement.

"Do you think I'm talking to you about how to domesticate creatures?" Shui Yu dragged a long whip of ice from the sink and asked with a smile.

Chen Li glanced at the whip and shook his head solemnly.

"Very good, I overestimate your emotional intelligence, to put it simply, I want that kind of thing called a mobile phone, I want something called crooked fai, I want that kind of thing called a game, get it!" The whip was whipped, and a snowflake bloomed at the tip of the whip and fell to the ground in a leisurely manner.

"Whew~" Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, "I said it earlier, it's just such a trivial matter, it scared me, I thought Shui Yu, you were really angry." ”

Shui Yu glanced at him, threw the whip back into the sink, raised the ice recliner under his feet, and lay down comfortably, "Cut, I was already angry because you were too stupid." However, seeing that you are so stupid, I don't bother to be angry. ”

This sentence is logically contradictory. Chen Li wisely rotted this sentence in his stomach, smiled gentlemanly, bent down slightly towards her, and made a mage salute, "Yes, Your Highness, Great Water Elemental King, your will is my mission." ”

"Hmph~"

"Since you want to buy it, let's just buy five! One for each of us, anyway, I've almost forgotten how far technology has come now. ”

"Yes, yes!" A flame rose from the stove, and the light of the fire formed an excited face.

"Shut up! Mars, did you speak! Shui Yu glared at Mars fiercely, so frightened that it immediately retracted into the fire, leaving a small mutter: "It will bully me." It's going to bully me. ”

"That, Shui Yu, don't always bully Mars."

"Shut up, I'm still angry!"

"Knock knock~"

Talking and laughing, there was a sudden knock on the door of the store, and the customer? Chen Li turned around with some surprise, it was Lin Wanyu who he saw at noon today, who was standing outside the store at the moment, holding a bamboo umbrella in his hand, looking at the small shop, and seeing the shopkeeper turn around, he nodded with a smile.

This guest was a little unexpected, and Chen Li also nodded, "Please come in, although you are just about to open a store." ”

"Excuse me." Lin Wanyu pushed the door in and said a blessing to Chen Li, "Is she gone?" ”

"Uh, well, Su Yuexue just left." Chen Li was a little embarrassed by this Wanfu, and didn't know how to return the gift, but Lin Wanyu obviously didn't care, seeing that he didn't return the gift, he smiled, looked at the decoration next to him, and said: "I haven't been here for a while, I can't think of opening a shop here, I don't know if Your Excellency used to cultivate in that blessed place?" ”

"Cult cultivation?" Chen Li scratched his head and looked at Lin Wanyu blankly.

"Your Excellency's cultivation has reached the point where there is no leakage, right? If it weren't for the treasure reminder, the little girl wouldn't have noticed Your Excellency at all. Lin Wanyu smiled slightly, as if she had known that this reaction would be the case, and continued, "Your Excellency should have been cultivating in the blessed land for many years, right?" You should be aware of the aura-changing changes between heaven and earth, right? To tell the truth, over the years, the cultivation world has withered, and no one has soared in the past five hundred years, at the end of the Qing Dynasty. Even in the last day, after the Japanese invaders, nothing has become a demon for a hundred years. ”

After a pause, seeing that Chen Li's expression was a little interested, he continued: "Now that the Immortal Dao has declined, mortals believe in science and technology. And this technology does have the power to change the heavens and the earth, the last person who tried to use the Shinto to ascend was killed by mortals, and since then, the practitioner and the government have agreed on the three chapters of the law, and if they do not interfere in politics or hurt people, the government will treat the practitioner as if the practitioner does not exist. Your Excellency has not been born for many years, and you may not understand the power of this, but Rong Xiaonu said one more thing, this time is different from the past, and now murder is wanted, and it will be hunted down by cultivators and mortals. He stopped and looked at Chen Li.

"Oh." Chen Li saw that she didn't speak, probably waiting for her to react, scratched her head, and responded.

The corners of Lin Wanyu's mouth twitched, as if she didn't expect it to be such an understatement, stabilized her aura, and continued: "So, Your Excellency, please don't hurt that girl just now." ”

"Hmm. Well, I didn't want to hurt her in the first place. Chen Li nodded, patiently listened to Lin Wanyu's tirade, ignoring her somewhat strange look, and asked carefully: "That, excuse me, are you a zombie?" ”

Lin Wanyu frowned slightly, not very accustomed to this kind of topic jumping, and corrected his mistake: "Drought fish, I am a drought fish, not a zombie." ”

"Does it make a difference?" Chen Li glanced at the elemental creatures next to him, and then looked at the oriental mythological creatures in front of him, this painting style is a bit strange. Forget it, what's his painting style! Swallowing his saliva, he looked at Lin Wanyu eagerly, no, it seems that she is going to be sick, I really want to dissect her, I really want to dissect her. Zombies, no, marbles! The structure of the physiological and energy circulation is definitely different from that of the undead.

As a grand arcanist who can cross the endless void, it is inevitable that there will be a bit of a researcher's quirk, such as encountering something that has never been seen, and the first reaction is to get on the test bench. It's normal, reasonable curiosity as a scientist, well, normal. Chen Li made excuses for himself in his heart.

"The difference is that I'm not a yin element." Lin Wanyu was a little uncomfortable stared at by Chen Li's gaze, and couldn't help but clench the bamboo umbrella in her hand, "You don't need to absorb mortal yang energy to maintain your activity. ”
