Chapter 60 Apartment and Qiong Lin

Roach couldn't bear the aftereffects of his second space travel and fainted.

He fell into a dreamless sleep. Considering the chaos in his mind these past few days, this was a rare relief. This sleep was very deep, and although it did not last long, he still gained a sense of relief.

Calm. It was as if he had always been an endlessly rising balloon. The fragile rubber outer membrane was his only armor. The thread tied underneath could not penetrate the roots of the soil. But now, his

A little strength fell on the roots, preventing him from drifting endlessly into the abyss above his head.

Roach woke up in peace, slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly realized with shock that he was still soaked in water. There was a "bang" in his mind. This shock was no small matter, and his body instinctively struggled violently. As a result,

His legs cramped, and he slipped into the water instead.

He took a sip of water in shock, and a pair of hands reached into the bathtub, passed through his armpits and lifted him up. He coughed, panicked, and the muscles all over his body tensed, and the cramping pain in his legs still stimulated him.

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

His vision became clearer, and he saw Du Zhengyi's face, the silver chain in the middle of his collar, and the sleeves of his shirt rolled up high, with wet arms. Then he realized that he had been

He was panting violently, as if he was trying to force the last breath out of his lungs.

"Luo Qi." Du Zhengyi's voice became softer and his brows furrowed, as if he had just taken a bite of bitter medicine.

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

This was so stupid. He forced his mouth shut, swallowed his breath, and calmed down his over-breathing. His eyes were still spinning wildly, looking at the surrounding environment. All he saw was an ordinary room.

The bathroom was decorated with the most ordinary and honest large pure white tiles. He lowered his head and saw that he was sitting in the bathtub, half submerged in a tank of warm water.

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

His eyes were still wide, 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." Du Zhengyi said. The extremely horrified look on Luo Qi's face just now was shocking even to him.

Perhaps it was for this reason that he added another sentence, "I'm sorry."

Even though Luo Qi looked dull at this moment, he still had some reaction. He slowly raised his head and looked at Du Zhengyi with his big black eyes doubtfully. Du Zhengyi was not a good boy who was united and friendly, no matter what he was.

At that time, apologizing didn't suit his style, let alone his current role as a lifesaver.

As soon as Du Zheng saw that Luo Qi had regained his energy, the two looked at each other for a while, both of whom seemed a little unable to accept that there was suddenly such a life-and-death friendship between the two of them. Especially since this friendship was one that seriously owed the other.

Yes, both of us are a little uncomfortable with being the giver or the receiver.

"Do you need me to help you take a bath?" Du Zhengyi assessed his situation and asked hesitantly.

Roach shivered.

"Okay." Du Zhengyi said, relaxing a little, "You know what's going on. I found some clothes and put them on the washing machine next to the door. You can change into them after taking a shower."

"Where is this?" Roach asked. He felt that this place didn't look 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 Luo Qi seemed to be more confused than before, he expected that he wouldn't have anything to say for a while, so he turned around and walked out of the bathroom, closing the door tightly.

Luo Qi sat in the bathtub for a long time, and finally thought, if this happened a few days ago, God, he would jump up immediately and look through the bathroom first. It is Du Zhengyi's home, and I always feel that there are many secrets hidden there.

, there are many mysterious hobbies to explore. Having the opportunity to go to Du Zhengyi’s home feels like I can finally seize the opportunity to turn Du Zhengyi upside down and shake him hard to see how many strange things he can shake out.

eccentric.

But things are changing so fast. Du Zhengyi, who is so genius, is not a difficult puzzle to solve. What's funny is that Luo Qi now wishes he could lift himself up and shake himself violently.

Shake it out and see how many secrets you can reveal.

Sometimes it is not difficult to unravel other people's secrets, at least it is not a disturbing thing, but to unravel your own secrets is like wanting to lick your own nose.

Used, and very disgusting.

Luo Qi retreated into the water, feeling a little exhausted when he thought about how frightened he was.

He leaned in the bathtub and slowly relaxed his body in the warm water, feeling a long-lost comfort. This kind of comfort made his mind confused, so much so that he only realized it when the water in the bathtub was almost cold.

, he hasn’t heard any noise since he woke up, it’s so quiet here, it’s like he’s returned to his old life.

Du Zhengyi poured himself another cup of tea and sat on a cushion on the ground. The shape of the cushion was somewhat like a futon. He let himself think about nothing and felt at ease for a rare moment.

The door was opened behind him, and Roach came out kicking. Today, he has become somewhat accustomed to Roach's shuffling footsteps. They are slower than ordinary mages, and the soles of his shoes are grinding on the ground.

The time is also longer and lazily, which is Luo Qi's unique rhythm, which is inversely proportional to the speed of Luo Qi's thinking.

"Brother" Luo Qi walked half way and called him slowly from behind, his speech unclear and showing displeasure. It sounded like his mental state had recovered a lot, at least he was no longer in that frightened state.

abnormal state.

He turned around and saw Roach wearing his shirt and trousers, with the corners of his trousers rolled up. It was really funny. But he couldn't laugh now. He had to pretend to be serious and calmly point to another mat on the ground to signal.

Roach can sit down.

Luo Qi came over with a sad face. He also poured a cup of tea for Luo Qi. Luo Qi sat down on a cushion in an upright manner, which was a bit funny. He even deliberately didn't look around. In fact, Luo Qi's

His energy has been at least half recovered. It is said that his gossip spirit should have recovered a lot, and he should be particularly curious now. But it seems that the huge blow and mental trauma have indeed made him mature a lot.

"I didn't expect you to come to help me."

He looked at the way Luo Qi spoke honestly, and slowly figured out that sometimes the biggest problem with this child is that he is too serious. Even though he seems to be a tease, in the final analysis, he is still too serious.

"If you want to say thank you to me, forget it, don't take it so seriously." Du Zhengyi interrupted what he was going to say later, "I didn't want to do it at first, but then I did it as the tide went. There's nothing to say."

A trace of frustrated flinch flashed across Luo Qi's face. Du Zhengyi looked away and stopped looking at him. However, the window was too high and he couldn't see outside. Sitting facing the wall looked like an idiot. He had never thought about it.

One day he will bring others to the place where he lives, so when I chose a house, I never thought that this day would happen.

"But you saved my life." Luo Qi didn't care how strange it was to sit under the window, and Fangzheng's room was not big, so he seemed to muster up the courage, "You saved me from dying a ridiculous death.

I want to thank you very much."

"No one can die with dignity." Du Zhengyi said, "Everyone is very ridiculous when they die."

Luo Qi's spine was bent a little under the weight of Du Zhengyi's answer. A person as awesome as Du Zhengyi would not say such words, but now Du Zhengyi's expression is indeed a little unhappy.

Luo Qi was silent for a while, Du Zhengyi said nothing, and the atmosphere became even more depressed.

Luo Qi sat up a little straighter, "Anyway, according to Chinese culture, you saved my life, and now you should be responsible for my life."

"Is this what Chinese culture says?" Du Zhengyi turned around, "Are you a porcelain man on the street?"

Luo Qi grinned, and Du Zhengyi stared at him for a while, looking at his smiling face in disbelief. After a while, Du Zhengyi said, "Oh my god, you are really careless."

Luo Qi put away his smile, but rubbed his face, and his expression was still very happy. He moved on the ground, curled up and lay down, resting his head on the cushion.

"I can lend you the bed today. If you are tired, go to bed and sleep." Du Zhengyi said lightly.

"No need." Roach murmured, "I feel safer here."

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

Down.

Du Zhengyi no longer remembers whether he has a younger brother. It seems that he does, and it is said that he does. He left home when he was young, so he has very little memory of his brothers and sisters, but now he probably thinks that if he has a brother,

That's about it. He felt a little sarcastic towards him, wanting to say something derogatory from time to time, but also felt a little emotional about the unquestioning reliance he provided. As a result, he felt a lot of guilt in his heart, and he didn't know what to do.

It's good, even the things I originally insisted on are constantly being revised.

Thousands of miles away, Qionglin.

Qionglin's search work finally made some progress. A group of unlucky ghosts who were assigned to search in the forest were assigned to search the garbage dump area. This group of magicians were among the magicians of Qionglin.

Marginal characters, two autistic patients and three weirdos have to walk through the Qionglin garbage dump.

This garbage dump is connected to various rooms in the central building of Qionglin by a series of complex teleportation magics. The mages use these systems to automatically process the garbage. After the garbage is delivered here, it will stay for at least three days. Every three days

Special magicians will come to clean up the garbage in the sky. Most of the work is to perform decomposition operations. This is a magical operation opposite to summoning and condensation magic, converting existing entities into basic substances.

The five fringe mages responsible for the search wandered endlessly in the garbage dump. The autistic mage said almost nothing, but one of the three weirdos was full of curiosity about this garbage dump. It was said to be a garbage dump, but it was also a garbage dump.

From the glittering magic roses to the letters that are not burned according to the rules, there are simply too many secrets to be discovered here. Visiting here in a grand manner is also a big adventure.

This weird thing inevitably walked deeper and deeper into the garbage dump. At this moment, a high-energy radiation was as conspicuous as a big light bulb in the dark night. He walked over involuntarily. At that time, he never thought about the garbage dump.

This moment will become the pinnacle of his life. Afterwards, he not only had the opportunity to have a deep talk with Shi Zuoyu, and thus became a good friend who can always talk to each other, he was also received by the Venerable Qiong Lin, which was just a little short of enough points.

Received the Division Medal.

Later, he wrote many articles and published them in magicians' publications, describing his cautious and meticulous search work. His extremely rigorous work attitude allowed him to discover the priceless and significant Qionglin Defense Crystal in the garbage dump. Afterwards,

He thought that he had actually thought of it a long time ago. The Lotus Burners would not take the risk of taking away this crystal that would cause them to be hunted down by all the masters. Therefore, the most appropriate way was to temporarily hide the crystal and buy themselves some time to do things.

It is of course impossible to hide crystals with surging energy in the temple surrounded by masters in the center of Qionglin, so the only way is to throw the crystals into Qionglin's garbage recycling system. As time goes by, he decisively believes that he actually had it beforehand

He thought of it, so he searched the garbage dump seriously and found the guardian crystal.

This is what he said to the Venerable and others in the end. At the mage's internal commendation meeting, he was raised to a very high level, and he was compared with the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes.

The only flaw is how to explain that there are no traces of any mage touching the defense 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 offset the absorption of his energy by the defense crystal, thus

No traces can be left.

Han Yi, a senior mage in Qionglin, criticized his statement and believed that his explanation method was completely agnostic, in other words, it was all nonsense. But he has turned to writing a new 100-word article calling for

Everyone was alert to the emergence of new magic formulas, and received worried responses from many magicians. Therefore, Han Yi’s words did not attract too much attention, not to mention that Han Yi actually walked in during the Qionglin search.
