Chapter 268 Chapter 260 HP-1
[In fact, each of us is Yangxia, and we all had a Dongxue once. 】

【We all had the extravagant hope that we would never grow up, but the river of time forced us to grow up, and growing up gave us more responsibilities, and Dongxue was gradually forgotten by us. 】

[One day, the old Yang Xia was walking in the sunset, and when he looked back, he saw a familiar figure. 】

【At that time, I might say—】

【"Hello, Yang Xia."】

【"Hello, Dongxue."】

……

"Shh-!"

Su Mingan opened his eyes.

He saw the familiar personal space.

The space was closed and narrow, only allowing a bed to lie down on... But when he saw these familiar scenes, he felt a long-lost peace of mind.

Exhaustion surged up like a tide, he closed his eyes, and his body collapsed forward.

[The Sixth World: Baisha Paradise has been completed! 】

[Evaluation is being calculated. 】

[Congratulations to Perfect Pass...]

Like a straight stake, he fell into the soft bed and fell into a deep sleep in an instant.

The system voice that was playing froze for a moment.

The voice that was still broadcasting, quieted down, and there was no more sound.

In the quiet room, only the crisp sound of the wall clock remained.

……

【Lord God World】

The door curtain was lifted, and the wind chimes jingled.

A young man dressed in pitch black walked into the shop, carrying a black plastic bag in his hand.

"Someone is here, Ryoko, go and have a look." A middle-aged man called from the back room.

"coming!"

A youthful and beautiful girl with a single ponytail came out from the back room.

With a "bang", the young man put the black plastic bag in his hand on the counter.

"You... just come back." Ryoko paused.

From the young man, she clearly felt an overwhelming aura.

As if being stared at by some ferocious beast, she felt a wave of blood in his body that hadn't dissipated.

Reminiscent of the ghostly place in the sixth world, she can probably guess what hell the other party has experienced.

The youth blinked.

"I thought you were going to the hospital when you came back, but the psychiatric department over there is full now...I didn't expect you to come to my shop the first time." Liangzi said.

The young man blinked again.

Ryoko: "..."

Liangzi: "But thinking about your situation, no hospital would dare to accept you."

The young man didn't speak.

"...you should be fine." Seeing this, Liangzi couldn't help but said, "I see those returning people are getting more and more gloomy, like murderers who have just stepped out of a sea of ​​blood. We all need to avoid them and walk away." I didn't believe it at first, but now, I think what they said seems to be right, you also look like a murderer who just walked out of a murder scene."

The young man pointed at the plastic bag.

Ryoko sighed, knowing that the other party probably didn't want to talk much, she reached out to remove the black plastic bag:

"I said, why don't you do the psychological counseling project recently launched by the joint group, which is specially open to the top players, and the scholars of the psychology department have devoted themselves to researching the treatment plan. I heard that it is very effective. Your current one Look, I'm really worried that you won't be able to hold on to the next world..."

As Ryoko spoke, she moved her hands, and the plastic bag shook.

After taking it apart, her words of persuasion stopped abruptly.

Staring at the wriggling thing in her hand, her eyes were obviously a little angry.

With a "bang", the table HP-1.
"—You, you actually brought a live puppy here in a plastic bag—do you have common sense!" Liangzi frowned instantly.

"It's not considered a pet, so it can't be dragged into a backpack." The young man answered honestly.

"You——Lu Shu!!" Liangzi couldn't help roaring: "It's really impossible, you can buy a cage in the main god shop! How can anyone put a dog in a plastic bag!"

"Liangzi, be more polite to your guests."

A middle-aged man's voice came from behind.

Liangzi curled his mouth.

She parted her hair a little irritably, and looked away.

This is a pet hospital. Her family opened it, which can be regarded as a continuation of Zhai Xing's business.

In the past, she often said that she didn't want to study, didn't want to go to school, and went out to find a job at the end of her studies, which was tiring and had little money. It was not as interesting to play with small animals all day long.

And now, her dream has briefly come true.

Ryoko picked up the spray on the counter and sprayed it on the puppy, absent-minded.

"By the way, you actually adopted a dog." She drooped her eyelids and said, "I thought you only had praying mantises and butterflies."

"I don't want to raise this dog." Lu Shu said.

"what?"

"I heard people say that communicating with animals can make people feel better and help relieve people's nervousness and depression." Lu Shu said: "Then, I checked the Internet, and they all said that dogs are man's best friend. "

"..." Ryoko was silent for a while: "And then?"

"Then I made one and gave it to Su Ming..."

"Oh!"

Liangzi threw the spray, Lu Shu tilted his head to dodge.

"Let's not talk about whether it can relieve the mood, just how did it happen!" Liangzi yelled.

"I picked it up on the road."

"Picked it up?" Ryoko looked puzzled.

"I originally wanted to buy one from you, but I saw it on the road and picked it up."

Ryoko was silent for a while.

"It's really..." When she spoke again, her voice was a little hoarse: "In what kind of world, there are people who abandon pets. It's so convenient to raise them here, and there is no financial pressure... It's just because Get bored and leave them by the side of the road..."

Her mood was depressed for a moment, and then quickly calmed down.

"There's nothing wrong with the dog. The breed is like the Samoyed on Zhai Xing." Liangzi said, "I've got dust on my body. I'll clean it up later, and then get vaccinated. There shouldn't be any problems."

"Well."

"However, let me remind you, Lu Shu." Liangzi looked up and looked at him seriously: "Keeping pets will not relieve people's emotions in essence, but people will feel happy when they suck pets, but keeping them is very troublesome. Things, I don't think the person you gifted will have the patience to raise it."

Lu Shu stood in place like a pitch-black stake, as if thinking.

Ryoko frowned.

She couldn't help but want to step back.

Even though she often browses the world forum recently, knowing that people say that the adventure players after returning are like lunatics and murderers, she doesn't have any real feelings.But now... when a real guy stood in front of her, she felt a real sense of danger.

It was like a rabbit being stared at by an eagle, even if the other party didn't jump over, or even show hostility towards her, she could feel the fear welling up in her heart.

She didn't even dare to look directly at him.

These adventure players... When did they become so scary?

The gap is really getting bigger and bigger.

"Besides." Ryoko couldn't help but added: "The one you picked up is quite ugly."

Lu Shu lowered his head.

He saw the big dog lying on the counter, which had been stuffed in a plastic bag for too long and looked listless.Its whole body is dusty and still shedding its hair. It doesn't look like a "smiling angel" Samoyed.

He couldn't help comparing the dog with the fat white cat, and found that even the white cat was more beautiful than the dog.

"Then what should we do?" Lu Shu said.

"Don't give this one away, don't you know how to raise combat pets?" For Su Ming'an, Liangzi seems to know the situation better than Lu Shu: "Giving him something, at least it is valuable, Samoyed who wastes time and has no fighting power, Do you think he will really accept it?"

Lu Shu: "..."

Lu Shu: "No."

"So." Ryoko put the Samoyed aside, lowered his head to get the medicine: "Change your mind."

"..."

"And, a very important point." Liangzi said: "No one knows what he will look like after his return. Although the Sixth World is only five days away, I think he looks like he was before the Human Self-Saving Conference. Much worse. I advise you, at least during this interval, not to see him—"

"No." Lu Shu said.

"Huh? You are really not afraid of death."

Lu Shu said: "I heard people say that communicating with others will make people feel at ease and help relieve people's tense and depressed emotions. As a companion, I need to communicate with him."

"... You just mentioned the reason, although the subject changed from 'animal' to 'human'." Ryoko said.

"Then, I searched online." Lu Shu said seriously, "They all said that I was his best friend."

"Oh!"

Desk HP-1.

Liangzi's finger touched the tip of Lu Shu's nose.

"You've been cheated." She said in an extremely serious tone, as if she was being sentenced, "Stop surfing the Internet and watch nonsense forums."

Lu Shu blinked again.

"Liangzi, you go back first."

A middle-aged man's voice came from the back room. Immediately afterwards, a thin and stooped man who looked like a little old man opened the curtain and came out.

"Dad, I'm dealing with dogs." Ryoko took off his gloves.

"Go to the back and deal with it. I have something to talk to the Lu family's baby."

Ryoko reluctantly moved her things to the back room one after another, with the single ponytail swaying behind her.

With a bang, the door was closed, and a man with a stooped figure walked over slowly.

Even though he was a mature man's body after being repaired by the system, his posture was still like that of an old man, with his back bent unconsciously, and his skeleton-like protruding joints were wrapped in a neat Chinese tunic suit, making his body look thin and thin.

He walked slowly, leaning on a mahogany cane in his hand, making a dull "dongdong" sound with his steps.

The cats, cats and dogs separated by glass on both sides barked loudly, Lu Shu frowned, watching the old man walking towards him.

"The child of the Lu family." The old man's mouth was full of the taste of the last century.

"Lu Shu."

"Okay, Lu Shu." The old man quickly changed his words and grinned.

The jagged teeth were exposed with his smile, and the skin on his face was also wrinkled, like dry old tree bark.

It's hard to imagine how such a middle-aged man ruined his image like the old man who is about to die soon.

"How's it going?" The old man lowered his head, as if he was looking for something, and the greeting seemed casual.

"not too good."

"Well, I think so." The old man said, "Although I don't know what kind of forum that old man is, Liangzi told me that the sixth world is a world that is good at destroying people's hearts. I think your state is not right, too bloody .”

"..."

"The way you are now is not suitable for continuing the adventure in the next world." The old man said: "I heard from the old men in Guwu that they want the children they cultivated to rest for a short time, and you can also give yourself a rest." Fake, this world doesn't need you to fight alone."

"No."

"Huh?" The old man raised his eyebrows in surprise.A crimson pipe emerged from his hand, and he took a puff of lightly, smoke rings floating between the two of them.

"A rare emotion." The old man said, "I can sense your restless emotions... Lu's son, no, Lu Shu, you have a weird look like a cow, just like the one I rescued in the fire. When I laid you down, it was exactly the same. What's wrong, what made you like this?"

"The kid in your mouth is fighting." Lu Shu said, "I want to help him."

The old man exhaled a smoke ring.

He smoked a cigarette and smiled, with a hint of relief in his smile.

"In this world, you have found your ideal." The old man said, "Okay, that's good. Unlike our old guys who refuse to move, your mentality is young and motivated... Lu Shu, old man I admire you."

"But." He tapped the pipe with his fingers, and the ash fell like snow:
"Act as soon as possible."

Lu Shu was silent for a moment.

The old man said, tidying up his things: "The actions of a large organization need to be cautious, and we should not participate in it—but as individuals, it will be much easier, and we don't have to consider the consequences of affecting all employees..."

"What do you want to say."

"Lu Shu, I've heard about that shitty thing you did at the end of the Fourth World. It was so ridiculous that even I wanted to rush out and beat you on the head hard."

"..."

"Even that kid named Su Ming'an understands better than you, knowing that you can't head-on with the puppets of the United Regiment, why is your brain rusted?"

"..." Lu Shu closed his eyes.

"The interval this time is very long, it's only December [-]nd today." The old man stopped talking, turned around, and smoked: "There is still more than ten days of interval before the next world, you Think about it carefully, think about your own path, and think about whether to place all your bets on a person who is very likely to fail halfway."

"Lu Shu, in the fifth world, you teamed up with that person, and you did nothing all the way, and your ranking dropped all the way. This is a fact."

"It's better to grab something practical and think about yourself more than you insist on getting it together."

"But you are different from that kid named Noel. Noel...no one knows who is behind him. He can bet, but you don't have the capital to try and make mistakes."

"Everything is still in the foreseeable future... You have to remember that you are carrying a lot of things on your body, and you won't be able to save the past just because you simply follow... Hey!"

The old man babbled a lot, then turned around suddenly.

He found that there was no one in front of the counter, as if he didn't want to listen to him at all.

"This child... ran to find someone again."
