Chapter 893 I’m super handsome
Modern people always feel that antiques are very charming, but antiques don’t mean they want to live in ancient times.
Unlike many sects nowadays that have free WIFI coverage, the Lei family still maintains a rather retro life. Not to mention the Internet, there is no electricity, so you can at least get a diesel generator or something...
Li Chengqi only stayed here for one night, and because he couldn't use his mobile phone, he felt uncomfortably like there were monsters crawling all over his body. Suddenly, I understood a little bit why Lei Lei went to the north to engage in the so-called 'practicing in the world'. I would run away even if I were left alone, and I wouldn't come back until I could.
Fortunately, Li Chengqi brought a laptop and a large-capacity power bank. His patience was related to the battery. When the battery ran out, it was time for him to lose control and get angry.
After giving Yang Yiyi a few more instructions, Li Chengqi rubbed his eyes. He didn't sleep enough and was still a little sleepy.
Just as he was about to take a nap, he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in, the door is unlocked."
By the way, the door to Lei's room had no lock at all, just a wooden latch.
Then the door creaked open and Lei Lei walked in.
"Brother Li, I see the light is on in your room. Do you recognize the bed? Are you awake so early?"
You must have seen the backlight of the laptop. After all, the windows and doors of Lei's guest room were decorated with classic window paper.
"It's mainly because I'm not used to the bed. I've begun to miss the spring bed."
When he was in school, Li Chengqi should have been used to the wooden bed in the school dormitory, but maybe because he is old, he can't get used to it now.
Lei Lei understands Li Chengqi very well. Every year when he comes back for the New Year, Lei Lei feels uncomfortable all over.
She raised her left hand, holding two cans of beer.
"Do you like it cold or at room temperature?"
"Cold."
One of the cans quickly condensed a layer of fine water droplets. Lei Lei threw the can of beer to Li Chengqi and opened the other can.
Li Chengqi wanted to say that students should not drink, but suddenly he remembered that Lei Lei was already a college student.
Time indeed passed quickly.
"Brother Li, aren't you very resistant to getting involved in these things? Why did you agree to help?"
Seeing that Lei Lei wanted to chat, Li Chengqi closed the notebook and reached out to open the can.
"Isn't this about you?"
"Am I so proud?"
Li Chengqi shrugged:
"After all, you have helped me a lot, I can't be a wolf."
Li Chengqi is a typical person who doesn't care about matters that concern him. As long as his interests are not touched, Li Chengqi will stand in the neutral camp and watch the fun, and will never take any side.
But if it concerns him or someone familiar to him, the situation is different.
Li Chengqi was right. Ever since she met Lei Lei, she had helped Li Chengqi a lot. She asked Lei Lei about many things like cultivating immortals and even Yang Yiyi's martial arts situation.
Not to mention anything else, Lei Lei was the first to come to save lives that time at Jinniu Mountain. Of course Li Chengqi remembered the kindness of others.
This time when Lei Lei had something to do, Li Chengqi didn't hesitate much. As soon as Qian Sen said it, he nodded and agreed to help.
Lei Lei opened her mouth when she heard this and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything and just shook her head:
"Brother Li, you are really..."
"Charming and handsome!"
"Just take it as such."
Lei Lei walked near Li Chengqi, pulled out a chair and sat down, taking a few sips of beer as if she was worried.
But Li Chengqi didn't ask further questions, just waiting for her to say it herself.
After a while, Lei Lei spoke: "Brother Li, if you have a way to break out, go out and tell the people in Section 9 to send a large force to help."
"What? Are you worried that the Lei family's formation can't handle it?"
“What’s there to worry about in a run-down house.”
Lei Lei shook her head: "If the formation is really broken through, the worst we can do is fight out together. What I'm worried about is that ordinary people like Xiaoyan have no ability to protect themselves." "That's too much. Just do it a little bit." Aren’t you worried about me?”
“…..”
"Just kidding."
Lei Lei was worried, but Li Chengqi looked indifferent.
"Don't worry, I'm just too lazy to do it now. When necessary, I will go out and kill all the monsters, and we can go dance to the graves of those grandsons together."
"Brother Li, you don't say a word of truth in your mouth."
Hey, to be honest no one believes it yet.
"I came here mainly to see what's going on and to get it done. The process is not important, and I don't care what comes out. The result is certain anyway."
"You are too confident."
"After all, I am charming and handsome!"
“…..”
After two seconds of silence, seeing that Lei Lei didn't answer at all, Li Chengqi said a little embarrassed: "Okay, no more joking. In fact, there is no need to worry too much. Gan Xiaoyan sent Qian Sen the location before we came in, and we will wait for tomorrow... …No, it’s already today. Qian Sen found out that Gan Xiaoyan was not in regular contact, so he would definitely ask the General Administration to send support.”
Speaking of this, Li Chengqi asked a little strangely:
"Are you afraid that it will turn into a war between the army and the monsters?"
"Well, this is the last thing I want to see."
"Why? There's nothing wrong with killing all the monsters, right?"
"No, Brother Li, you are not a monk. You don't understand. Heaven's reincarnation will reward you, and every drink and peck has its own laws. The cause planted by the ancestors of my Lei family has led to the current results, and the cause of the massacre of the demon clan will not be the same in the future. My Lei family will also suffer the bitter consequences today.”
"...?"
Li Chengqi doesn't quite understand the values of monks.
What do you mean, when will the injustice be repaid?
But if you kill all the monsters, who can still seek revenge from you?
Monks focus on fate, and if you let them say it themselves, they can't explain it clearly. It's just a vague feeling that can't be seen, touched or explained, but it does exist.
Li Chengqi is a typical materialist with values. I have killed all my enemies, who will seek revenge from me?
To put it simply, just as monsters eating humans is harmful to the world, killing monsters in a genocidal way is also harmful to the world.
But no matter how you say it, it feels a bit too metaphysical for Li Chengqi to understand.
Lei Lei didn't expect Li Chengqi to understand, so she just said:
"It's best to resolve it peacefully if possible."
"The problem is that this is not a unilateral peace. No matter whether the monsters realize how big the trouble they are doing will be in the end, they have no intention of stopping."
Yes, that's why Lei Lei was a little confused.
"Don't think so much. If you have wine now, you will get drunk now. If you think too far, you are asking for trouble."
Li Chengqi patted his chest and said: "Anyway, I'm here, so don't worry."
"It's obviously a very reliable line, but why does it feel unreliable when it comes from your mouth, Brother Li?"
"Nonsense, it's rare for me to be reliable."
Maybe the image of the usual canteen owner is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so it doesn't really seem reliable.
"Speaking of which, you were hit by something before. When you were looking for someone to treat you, they said you were poisoned."
"I didn't even know it very well. I just came back from the school library. When I was almost home, I felt someone was following me, so I thought of a way to hide in the alley to see who was following me."
"Then what?"
"Then I felt dizzy, and vaguely seemed to see something like a snake. I didn't dare to stay, so I quickly used the wind control technique to escape. But then it became increasingly difficult to bring up the magic power, so I sent Lei Lei's location. I ran in the direction of your house. My memory is not very clear after that. The last thing I remember is that I saw your doorbell. "
Good guy, did you press the doorbell with a will?
It’s a bit scary.
