Not a god

Chapter 139 Domain (18.4.2)
After being dragged into a dream, Su Jiuer's brain raced, thinking about ways to escape.

Remembering what the Shepherd's Office had said in the past, that after falling asleep, one should stay where one is and not move, and there is a chance that one might be able to come back again, she spent the whole night squatting in the dilapidated temple, bored.

"There's no signal on my phone, and the preliminaries start tonight... Damn it!"

"Aren't you feeling hungry here?"

"I haven't eaten all night..."

She turned her head to look at the hundreds of ducks on the ground, swallowed, and quickly made herself sober up. These hundreds of ducks were transformed from humans.

In fact, after killing the evil duck herder, she pondered the function of the bell in her hand for a while and turned all the ducks back into humans.

What was the scene like at that time?
Hundreds of panicked villagers were chattering, clamoring to leave, crying and shouting for help, and other ordinary people who were good for nothing.

Su Jiuer stepped forward and explained her purpose to them, asking them not to panic, as people from the Mu Shou Si were nearby and would definitely send someone to rescue them.

"You, you are Su Jiuer?"

"Su Jiuer, you can definitely get us out, right?!"

"What happened to you? Didn't you come to save us? What's going on now? Why did you come to this hellish place? How do you do things?"

"I don't care, you must protect me!"

"..."

Su Jiuer felt a headache and shook the bell in her hand, and hundreds of people immediately turned back into hundreds of ducks.

She went out of the temple and checked the surrounding area.

They fell asleep in Wuren Village, Jiangping County. This area also corresponds to Wuren Village. It is a mountain valley, two kilometers away from the county seat.

The evil corpses in the dreamland are formed by the resentment of mankind. If the evil corpses are the residents of the dreamland world, then the evil corpses are also creatures that live together and depend on each other.

In places with a lot of people in reality, the number of evil corpses in the corresponding dreamland will be dense, and in places with a sparse population in reality, the number of evil corpses will be much less.

It may seem that places with fewer people are safer, but this is not the case.

Many powerful evil skeletons do not like the weak evil skeletons that keep growing around them, and find these little creatures annoying.

But these weak evil creatures are impossible to kill completely. If you kill a batch today, another batch will spawn tomorrow.

Just like people don't like to live in places where snakes, insects, rats and ants always appear, in order to avoid the weak evil skeletons that appear like mushrooms after rain, most powerful evil skeletons will stay away from urban areas and go to sparsely populated wilderness.

Therefore, in the city in the dreamland, there are a large number of low-level evil corpses, and outside the city, various terrifying and powerful evil corpses are lurking.

You never know when a third-level evil creature might suddenly appear on a hill and open its mouth to swallow you.

Su Jiuer held a knife and looked at the mountain scenery outside the temple, the gray bamboo forest, the smell of rotten wind blowing in her face, and occasionally some weak creatures in the woods were startled.

She had been here for two hours and actually wanted to go out for a walk.

With her ability to seek benefits and avoid harm, she should be able to avoid danger. If she finds the player outside and then notifies the Shepherd's Office, she should be able to find a way back.

But there were so many ducks in the house that she couldn't just leave them there.

"Oh! It's so annoying!"

Scratching his head, Su Jiuer asked all these idiots to turn around, took off their sticky coats and short-sleeved shirts, wrung them dry and hung them aside, and started practicing sword in the temple.

The woman's exposed skin was a healthy wheat color, and her well-proportioned figure was wrapped in a black sports bra, without any hint of spring scenery that could inspire any reverie.

The sword moves are like flowing water and spring breeze, and when dancing, the whole person looks like an agile female leopard.

Her jawline was tense as she swung the sword, a thin layer of sweat covered her wheat-colored cheeks, and her eyes were like oolong tea soaked in the bottom of a glass bottle, so clear that you could see the shadow of the sword swaying in her pupils.

"Shh-"

"Whizzing--"

The sports vest was lifted up half an inch as she turned around, showing her beautiful figure. The muscles of her legs under her hot pants tightened and relaxed suddenly during the chopping, and the morning sun shone through the hole in the roof and was dazzling when it flowed over her kneecaps.

Although evil corpses are scarce in remote areas, occasionally one or two evil corpses or living corpses that look like mountain monsters will appear, attracted by the ducks with human breath in this area.

Usually at this time, Su Jiuer would take up her sword and go out. In this dreamland full of dangers, the speed of refining evil spirits seemed to have increased. After killing them, she would come back and continue practicing sword while she was gaining insights.

In front of the clay statue, the girl swung her sword earnestly, one after another, as if tireless.

……

The next day, Chen Xi got up very early, but a little guy next to him got up earlier than him.

After Chen Yi woke up, she didn't make any noise, but just played with her stuffed toy beside her.

Her favorite thing now is a shark doll, and she can only sleep with the shark by her side.

Every morning when I wake up, I stare at the shark doll for a while and talk to it in a low voice, muttering some secrets that no one else can understand.

It’s nice to be carefree.

Chen Xi moved his fingers slightly, and the telekinesis technique worked on the shark doll. The little shark, which had been motionless, suddenly wagged its tail, shook its head, and floated in the air in the extremely shocked eyes of little Chen Yi.

"Huh? Huh!"

Chen Yi stared at the moving little shark with a dull expression, his pupils trembling violently, and he was so shocked that he couldn't utter complete words.

The little shark swam back and forth in the air, nudged Chen Yi's cheek with its head in a very affectionate manner, and even spoke, "Hello Yiyi, I'm the little shark, can you be my friend?"

Chen Yi can’t speak many things clearly now, but she can understand many things.

She knew what friends were. There was a big white cat in the crowded place where her father often took her, and that cat was her friend.

The little guy had a dull expression throughout the whole process. Although he didn't know what was going on, he understood that the little shark wanted to be friends with him, and his little head nodded frantically.

I don't know why, but the voice of Little Shark, although not like his father's, seemed to come from his daddy who was sleeping nearby... Just when she turned her head to look at his daddy, Little Shark suddenly seemed to be spinning happily in the air.

"That's great! From now on, Yiyi and I will be friends."

The little shark continued, "Actually, I am a shark from the fairy tale kingdom. My name is Shark Shark. Activities in this world require consumption of fairy tale energy. My fairy tale energy is almost exhausted now. I will play with Yiyi again after I accumulate enough fairy tale energy~"

This sentence was a bit too complicated. Little Chen Yi didn't understand it at all. She kept a dull expression from beginning to end, and then watched the little shark fall back into her arms and became motionless.

Looking at the little shark in his arms, the little guy couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

When Chen Xi pretended to get up, Chen Yi looked anxious, "Dad, Dad, Shark..."

Chen Yi was so anxious that she had to use her hands and feet. She spoke incoherently and babbled with an extremely serious expression, trying to tell Chen Xi what had just happened through acting out.

It’s a pity that Dad didn’t seem to understand what she said.

"Yiyi's doll, um, Daddy doesn't want to play with it, you can play with it by yourself."

No matter how she explained to her father, he didn't seem to understand. Chen Xi said this and turned over as if she was going to continue sleeping for a while.

However, just as Daddy fell asleep, the shark in her arms suddenly began twisting and moving again.

"Huh? Huh!"

Even when she saw the shark move again for the second time, little Chen Yi's face was still filled with shock.

She looked at her father and found that he was still sleeping.

"Yiyi, adults have lost their innocence and will not believe in the things in the fairy tale kingdom. There is no need to tell them about our affairs." Little Chen Yi's expression was still dull. She felt like her brain was not working and she felt a little stupid. Then the little shark slowly fell back into her arms, motionless.

When the little shark stopped moving, the father next to him woke up again, stretched and got up.

"Yiyi is still playing with the shark doll."

Chen Yi looked down at the motionless Shark and suddenly realized that she seemed to have encountered something very abnormal, and even her father seemed unable to understand this secret.

The little girl on the bed felt a little heavy for the first time.

"Come on, wake up."

Chen Xi asked her to change her clothes and then took her to brush her teeth and wash her face.

But from beginning to end, little Chen Yi's round face seemed to be thinking about something, which was so cute that Chen Xi couldn't help but kiss her several times, which made her laugh again.

"Daddy doesn't kiss me, Daddy doesn't kiss me!"

"You don't want daddy to kiss you?"

"Huhu, Huhu, Huhu!"

After Chen Xi washed her, he braided her hair into two small braids and said with emotion:
"When will Yiyi be able to get up by herself, change clothes, brush her teeth and wash her face, make breakfast, do some housework, pay attention to today's weather forecast, and then wake up dad when it's almost time, and remind him whether it will rain today before he goes out?"

Chen Yi: Σ()

After cleaning up, Chen Xi went back to his room to take a look.

The three little gingers are gone, and instead there is a mature Wanwan Emperor lying in the bed with half of its body outside the quilt and one of its legs on the ground, still sleeping soundly with its legs spread out.

It is only nine o'clock in the morning, and Emperor Wanwan has not yet woken up. Because he has transformed back into one from three, his naked body is obviously lying under the quilt.

Chen Xi was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he carefully covered the young woman with a quilt before closing the door and leaving, taking little Chen Yi back to the store.

I don’t know why, but Yiyi seemed to like the shark doll more today and she wanted to take it with her even when she went back to the store.

As soon as he arrived at the store, he ran anxiously to find the white cat that was licking its fur. It seemed that he had something important to discuss with his good friend Xueji.

At this time in the store, Douzi was preparing materials. Chen Yan had not come to work yet. As expected, this guy had to leave early again. Just as he was thinking this, a female voice came from behind him:
"In fact, sometimes I feel that it is difficult to survive in Jiangcheng with a salary of 5,000 yuan a month."

Chen Xi chose to ignore it, but when he turned around, he was frightened by Chen Yan's appearance.

Although Chen Yan didn't pay much attention to her dressing on weekdays, she was still well-groomed. She had never seen him so unkempt, with mud-spotted clothes, looking like someone fleeing from famine.

"Why did you go?"

Her face was heavy: "Tomb robbery."

“That’s illegal.”

"I robbed my own grave!"

Chen Yan was incredulous: "Those tomb robbers are so scary! I can't even remember the location of some of the tombs, but they have been dug up. Even the spittoon I used as a child was stolen. Why did those tomb robbers steal my spittoon?"

"Why don't you go back and take a shower before coming back to work?"

"Boss, aren't you going to ask me why I'm digging my own grave?"

"Are you homesick?"

"I don't have any money!" Chen Yan spread his hands forward and said, "Give me four thousand."

"Are you starting to ask for it directly now?"

"Just consider it as an advance on next month's salary. I need it urgently. I really can't find a grave to dig this time..."

This time she didn't seem to be joking. Her tone became a little more serious, and her expression became serious:

"There's a junior high school reunion next week. I used to brag a lot in the group, saying that I went overseas to invest and made a lot of money. If I go there dressed like this, I'll definitely be exposed!"

There were so many things to complain about this matter that Chen Xi didn't know where to start. He always felt powerless when facing this woman.

"Why don't you go and borrow it from Taoist Master Yu?"

Taoist Master Yu is a genuine rich woman, whether before or after the revival of spiritual energy.

"It's not that I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it back."

"What about mine?"

"I can work for the boss!"

Chen Xi rejected her offer directly, but gave her a chance to make her own money by asking her to teach him how to build a [field].

Ever since he solved Song Bao's formless realm last time, Chen Xi has actually mastered the skill of domain.

After marking a certain place in reality, you can let your spirit influence reality, thereby creating a virtual space that belongs to you alone in the real world.

However, the layout of the field also requires a so-called medium, which is more like a boundary marker that can connect the reality with one's own spiritual realm.

However, in the past two days, Chen Xi has tried many objects to act as a medium, but has always failed.

I had been planning to ask Wanwan today, but Wanwan hasn't come yet. After all, Chen Yan is a Daluotian, so he can be trusted when it comes to some matters regarding cultivation.

"Hello, is this place open?"

It was already past ten o'clock and customers started to come to the store. At this time, a few high school students came in, carrying bags with notebooks.

Dreamland is a world synchronized with reality. Jiangcheng's teleportation center and market are all in Tianfu Square. It's okay for residents near Tianfu Square, but for some players who are far away, it's quite difficult to explore all the way to Tianfu Square in Dreamland.

As a result, many people have figured out some unorthodox methods, such as logging in directly to Tianfu Square and unlocking the account. Even after returning home, they can directly choose Tianfu Square as the login point when they go online.

So in recent times, Internet cafes near Tianfu Square have been doing a booming business.

As for why these high school students didn't go to the Internet cafe, you don't have to guess to know that there were no seats left in the Internet cafe.

In the past few months, there are people like this every day, coming from the countryside or neighboring counties, ordering a cup of milk tea and unlocking the anchor point in their store.

"Open for business, Bean, come out..."

"Here comes the boss!"

A few high school students looked excited. They asked Douzi about the WiFi here, ordered a few cups of coffee, and found a place to sit down.

"Hurry up, who's going to go first?"

"The math representative from the next class has awakened his destiny. He teamed up with others to kill a black bird demon and earned a thousand dollars!"

"No wonder he's so tough all of a sudden. I remember he used to be very skinny and timid. He even beat up the school bully a few days ago."

"Why do you think Zhang Xiaotong is with him?"

"What? Zhang Xiaotong is dating him?"

There is more gossip to listen to. High school students' gossip is the most interesting. Chen Xi just pricked up his ears, but then realized that now is not the time to listen to gossip.

As more and more customers came to the store, Chen Xi and Chen Yan went to the side to see how this area was constructed.
