【Zhou Ye】The Foot of Time

...all wrong.

Zhou Zekai couldn't help sighing in his heart.With too little information and resources in Ye Xiu's hands, it is not easy to have such a guess.Even Zhou Zekai himself was unable to piece together the whole picture of the future from the sporadic clues of the "Earth Defense War", "The Executioner" and the fact that Ye Xiu was the target of the assassination.

When everything is clear to the heart, what is known becomes unspeakable.

Zhou Zekai could only try his best to maintain the smile on his face, turned his head to look at the faces of the people around him, and said seriously: "You are the most important person in the universe."

Ye Xiu's eyes flickered for a moment, and he staggered his gaze - Zhou Zekai couldn't move his eyes away from this kind of expression that was rarely shown on his face and seemed to be classified as "sorry".

"If I hadn't gotten used to your style of speaking, people who didn't know would think you were confessing!"

...I'm just confessing.

Zhou Zekai really wanted to just confess the truth, but they walked into the restaurant at this moment, and the artificial intelligence waiter's accusation made him swallow the words back.After ordering a good meal and sitting in the seat, the topic has changed.

"Actually, I now think that the best place to be designated is that you can't die." Ye Xiu took out the cigarette case and remembered that smoking is not allowed in public places, and then stuffed it back. "The most practical time is definitely when learning Kung Fu! Other people's muscles are stretched. It took several days for injuries and soft tissue contusions to heal, and I was alive and kicking again. The master always said that my talent is not very good and I started so late. It would be good to be able to strengthen my body in the end. I found that I am not afraid of this. No one can beat it, just get beaten more - look what this is saying! I'm not a masochist!"

"Have you graduated?"

"Of course, I don't even look at who my brother is." Ye Xiu raised his chin. It seems that he is now six hundred years older than the other party. In the past, he only felt the other party's proud and dazzling expression, but now in Zhou Zekai's eyes There is quite a sense of asking for praise and stroking, "Not to mention anything else, I have such a good golden finger, if I don't make good use of it and let it rot there, it will be a waste of money."

Zhou Zekai replied with a sentence from the earth: "The sea of ​​learning has no limits."

"Must." Ye Xiu drew a long stroke on the table with his finger, "There is a thousand years of distance between me and you, how can I not catch up with you?"

Zhou Zekai's heart felt hot when he heard it, and then the sour feeling couldn't stop fermenting and swelling: "I will chase after you in the future."

"Haha, now that you've said that, I'll work harder."

They chatted while eating, most of the time it was Ye Xiu who was talking and Zhou Zekai was listening quietly.Zhou Zekai recalled in a daze that they had a similar conversation once, and they were in the same situation but they were different.Suddenly he wanted to record a sound or something, but seeing Ye Xiu beaming with delight, he couldn't even reach into his pocket for a sonic screwdriver.

One more look, one more look.

Zhou Zekai suddenly felt that it was more or less a gift for him to know in advance how much time was left. Although it was too painful to watch the number decrease on the countdown, at least he would not go back when the parting was caught off guard. Blaming myself for not looking at the other party more carefully...

"Xiao Zhou...Xiao Zhou?"

"Huh?" Zhou Zekai came back to his senses, and tightened his fingers holding the fork.

"I ask you if you have any plans for the future, and where do you want to go?" Ye Xiu didn't mind Zhou Zekai's distraction.

"Stop reading?"

"The investigation of this matter is almost finished, there is no need to stay here all the time, I can just borrow a few books to supplement other knowledge." Ye Xiu put down the fork, Zhou Zekai immediately handed over a paper towel, he took it and wiped it Mouth, and continued, "The universe is so big, you can't rush to cram it all into your head. We've dated five times in the library, are you planning to turn every meeting we meet into a book club?"

Five times...

Zhou Zekai made a note in his heart, and threw the question back: "Where do you want to go?"

"Well... sometimes it's not a good thing to have too many choices." Ye Xiu tapped his fingers unconsciously on the cover of the notebook, "We always go to some very famous nodes, natural wonders and cultural events...then Are there any places that are ordinary but still fun?"

"……for example?"

"Uh, like the black market, auctions, etc.?"

Zhou Zekai remembered a few of the famous auctions in the universe, but they couldn't get interested in the unimportant ones, and the interesting ones couldn't be changed in the timeline and had to be bought by specific people. It doesn't make much sense to say that.That being said, you can go down there...

"How is it? Do you remember anything?" Ye Xiu looked over expectantly, with twinkling stars in his eyes.Zhou Zekai once wanted to see such an expression on Ye Xiu's face - he wanted to take Ye Xiu to all novel places and show Ye Xiu all the scenery he had never seen before. Now that he finally got his wish, his mood was already It is thousands of miles away from before.

He could only still smile and say the answer: "The biggest casino in the universe."

"How big?"

"It's bigger than the sun." Zhou Zekai still described it after finishing speaking, "It's very prosperous, in a neutral zone, and there are all kinds of races and ways to play."

"Although I've never gambled before, I'm really curious to hear you say that. But the problem is that I don't even know what humans play - there must be a lot of alien gambling methods in this casino - how much money do we have enough?" Am I going to lose?" Ye Xiu obviously stuck to the impression of "ten bets and nine loses" when it comes to gambling.

Thinking of Ye Xiu's god-like luck, Zhou Zekai, who had to pretend he didn't know anything about it, could only take it to his side: "It's not bad. I'm lucky." After thinking about it, he added, "Except mahjong. "

"Pfft!" Ye Xiu almost laughed, "You still play mahjong? Hahaha I can't imagine you sitting on the table repairing the Great Wall hahaha! You are so down-to-earth! The quintessence of the country, let me go! Didn’t you get beaten to the ground by the aunts? Who taught you hahaha!”

Thinking of that dark history, Zhou Zekai became numb. Not only was he beaten to the ground, he was beaten to the basement, the third floor.Ye Xiu was right, his dark complexion couldn't even be cured by rebirth, because he didn't change his face after rebirth.

===========

Mahjong left Xiao Zhou with mental trauma hahahaha
