Self-indulgent people are the most difficult people to deal with. They make their own decisions, are self-righteous, do not consider the feelings of others, and do extravagant actions just for self-satisfaction. Wayward children are annoying, and wayward adults are terrifying creatures who amplify children's mobility tenfold and their irritability a hundredfold.
"Huh~~"
In the animation, the performance of shouting "You willful guy!" and slapping someone in the face seems exaggerated, but in reality, when you encounter a willful act, you will have an impulse that is better than this. At this time, Gongsun Ce was struggling with his irritability. He gritted his teeth and endured, racking his brains to think, and finally found the culprit for his current embarrassing situation: it was all Yan Qi's fault.
“It’s so comfortable~”
That bastard is the most willful guy in the world. More than a day passed, and no matter how much he asked Qiluo to scream for his life, the painter still didn't reply. If Yan Qi replies in time, he will be able to think about more serious topics, and maybe he can learn more about the secrets of this world, and even a certain woman will put away her willfulness and do something serious or go to bed directly. So it is undoubtedly his fault that things have developed to this point...
There was a splash, and someone poured the warm water over, followed by her teasing.
"Oh, why don't you come down and take a bubble?"
The superpower held his head in his hands and said unbearably: "Don't provoke my emotions with malice at this time, you evil girl!
! "
It was one o'clock in the morning, and a gray-haired young man in a bathrobe sat alone with his back to the steamy pool. He didn't wear glasses because the lenses were molded by the water vapor, so there was no point wearing them. The warm spring water shows a beautiful blue color and bubbles appear from time to time. This is the famous hot spring in Xinzhou City. Judging from the comfortable sigh coming from behind, a certain woman obviously responded favorably to this.
Why was he sitting alone by the hot spring pool in the middle of the night? That was of course because the other extremely willful person said he wanted to take a hot spring bath as soon as he returned to the room!
Gongsun Ce felt like his cerebral blood vessels were going to explode. This embarrassing situation of not daring to look back was torture for any healthy man. He said that good people will be rewarded. Why did he have to face this after a day of tossing? What a disastrous situation!
"It's funny how shy the little villain is."
Bang, the hallucination of blood vessels exploding rang out in my mind. The valve of sanity was burst by anger. The gray-haired young man gritted his teeth and turned back: "I'm warning you, Mr. Gongsun, I -"
Shigurei turned her back to him and was leaning on the edge of the hot spring pool. Her black hair was tied up in a towel, leaving only a few strands hanging on her smooth neck. The white jade-like skin reflected a magical red under the high temperature, and the blue water droplets rolled down the curve and slid onto the round shoulders...
Gongsun Ce turned around instantly and forgot what he wanted to say. He knew that his face was probably a little red at the moment, and the evil woman would be laughed at if she saw it.
Shigurei turned his face sideways and looked at someone sideways: "What's wrong with you?"
"I've never been in a hot spring before, okay! You finish your bath quickly and switch to me!
"
"Haha? Have you never been to the Capital of the Sky before entering it?"
Gongsun Ce said dullly: "This is not popular in the empire, at least not in my hometown."
This is not a lie, it is really his first time to come to an open-air hot spring.
He admitted that he used to have delusions about meeting a beautiful girl in a mixed bathing hot spring, but even when he was at his most imaginative, he could not imagine what would happen today. If you really want to say that Shigure Rei is also a beautiful girl...a beauty...you can't think in this direction anymore, your head will explode.
After saying this, there was silence for a while beside the hot spring. He heard Shigure Rei say: "Actually, this is also my first time to soak in a hot spring."
...not surprising either.
How Rei Shigure lived when he was a child can be seen from the dream. In contrast, he was very happy when he was exposed to the bad side of the world only after he was 10 years old. At least he had a real family bond and hung out with his parents. Thinking of this, the superpowers suddenly lost their interest in bickering.
"Then enjoy it."
"Ha~~" Rei Shigure yawned, "I'm sleepy. I'll go to bed after taking a bath. I won't wait for you."
"What an outrageous guy."
"So if you want to take a dip, come down now."
"..."
I promised not to go back on my word and not to make a fuss and accuse me of being indecent - really, I almost said such embarrassing words.
A beautiful girl invites you to take a hot spring bath together, Gongsun Ce thought to himself, he must have agreed three years ago. But he is not a willful guy. If you do something disrespectful because of your own selfish desires, let's forget about it.
"It doesn't matter. Just finish your bath and I'll have a rest."
"Oh~"
There was the sound of water flowing behind him, and Rei Shigure seemed to be planning to change positions. I always felt that her words were very malicious, and what kind of crooked idea was this guy thinking... As he was thinking like this, he caught a glimpse of a white narcissus.
"!"
"Get down here!"
In an instant, the control of the body was taken away by the power of command. This guy can actually give him direct orders? ! Without enough time to think too much, the superpower was about to activate the power of the glasses - but then he remembered that he had put the glasses aside. Careless! Gongsun Ce screamed in his heart. How could you let your guard down around this guy!
Amidst someone's loud laughter, the gray-haired young man fell into the pool. He climbed up from the hot spring with wet gray hair, clutching the wet bathrobe: "Why does your sense of superiority soar to this level?!"
"I didn't even listen to your tone just now. I thought I was talking to the brat on the shelter ship." The black-haired woman smiled arrogantly, "It makes me very uncomfortable to listen to it. I want to put my own hands on your persistence. Crush it, look, the confused expression that the self-righteous brat is showing now, it’s refreshing to see it!”
You guy...?
Just as Gongsun Ce was about to roar, he realized that Shi Yuling had moved five meters away from him. She wrapped her body in a bath towel, leaving only her head and shoulders exposed above the water.
……Hello.
The superpower sat down by the pool, covered his forehead and said: "You are so shy yourself, why do you still insist on torturing me? You are funny."
Shigurei's face stiffened. "Hey, what are you talking about..."
"With those few words, the distance of five meters was not a calm move!" Gongsun Ce almost laughed angrily, "What kind of death is this?!"
Shigure Rei blushed: "Big sister, am I happy for you to take care of it?!"
Not good. I kinda think she's cute. Be sober, Gongsun Ce, don’t be fooled by bad women!
"you are free."
Gongsun Ce sank into the water with his eyes closed, planning to experience it for half a minute and then quickly go ashore.
"Hey, little pervert."
"I'm really going to fall out."
"Even if you don't get any benefits, you will still save those weird things."
"yes."
Rei Shigure smacked his lips in disgust.
"Tsk, why did you become such a hopeless good guy?"
Why is it like this? A person's personality is always determined by experience and nature, whether it is a person with super powers or an ordinary person, it is the same in this respect. I always meet important people and experience different things before I become who I am now.
"I'm a self-loathing guy and it just comes naturally to me."
"How is that possible?" Rei Shigure sneered, "Based on your character when you were a child? You were so angry at the imbecility of Orus? I'm sure you have been willing to degenerate for a period of time after arriving in the Sky Capital. It is as natural as a man carrying a stone sinking into a mire."
"...Anyway, I'm a good old man now."
With these words as the end, the superpower ended the conversation in the hot spring.
·
Late at night, the gray-haired young man closed his eyes on the bed. He is really tired today. Maybe it's a good thing that Yan Qi didn't come to communicate, at least it would give him a chance to rest his brain...
Gongsun Ce closed his eyes and fell into sleep. Before going to sleep, he thought to himself, fortunately, there would be no more intertwined dreams today.
The next moment, Gongsun Ce suddenly realized that he had arrived at a familiar place after falling asleep.
There was a sword-like symbol under his feet, and directly in front of him was the pitch-black road of silence. Looking along the sequence, there were the other six-phase roads that revealed their visions... He actually reached the starting point of the road again, but he himself clearly did not trigger it. Emmanuel!
"Don't tell me what happened last night isn't over yet..." Gongsun Ce groaned in pain.
"What should I say, man? You're right!"
Gongsun Ce's hair stood on end instantly. He heard a completely unfamiliar voice. The voice was frivolous and boastful, and did not belong to anyone he had ever seen. But the biggest problem is not that the voice is unfamiliar, but the location where it sounds...
This voice actually sounded from the depths of my soul!
"It's a little difficult to get in from inside, just wait for me a little longer..."
He pricked up his ears, listened carefully, and determined the source of the sound: it came from the right rear of himself, which was the direction of the Huangxiang Road!
The moment he realized where he was coming from, Gongsun Ce covered his ears and ran towards the Silent Phase Road without looking back. Vaguely, he heard the man say: "Hey, don't be so impatient! Just chat for a while!"
Just kidding, I can't think of anything scarier than chatting with you. Who knows if you will be a king again! And it comes from Huang Xiang. I don’t want to look like the Kakuku Planet!
Gongsun Ce gritted his teeth and did not dare to say a word. He had to escape to the Silent Phase Road, otherwise he would have nowhere to hide. He silently recited the formulas taught by Yan Qi, recalled the notes handed over by Rina, and prayed from the bottom of his heart that their teachings were reliable.
The darkness on both sides of the road gradually turned into a scene that was more vivid than an illusion. Gongsun Ce realized that the method taught by his master and sister had worked, but now he had to have lucid dreams again!
·
"What are you doing!
! "
Rei Shigure crushed the can and threw it to the ground.
She had no intention of dreaming tonight - that was easy for a psychic, it was their instinct to manipulate dreams. But why is she standing in the dusty ruins now, with her face being drenched by the foul-smelling rain? !
She angrily kicked the half-destroyed vending machine. Cherry beer, cream cola, horse-powered ice tea, and all kinds of weird drinks rolled on the floor. Rei Shigure just lost a can of Coke. She picked up the beer, took a sip, cursed it inwardly, and threw the can away. She judged from this detail that she ran into a strange dream again.
Ordinary dreams are not so detailed that even the taste of the drink is revealed.
Light rain pattered on the ground, dyeing the gray ground dark. The dark clouds in the sky were dark and heavy, much larger than usual, making people think that dark clouds were about to fall.
She was standing on the half-destroyed street, and the sound of heavy weapons firing could be heard in the distance. There was a clanging sound, bullet shells rolling down on the ground, explosions, shooting sounds, blunt objects hitting the gun, followed by a deafening bang. An unfinished high-rise building collapsed, and then she heard a familiar scream. The blazing pillar of fire reaches the sky, and everything returns to calm.
Rei Shigure stepped on the ground anxiously. It's obvious, isn't it? The angry little cat killed all the people fighting in the distance. Where else could this be but the capital of the sky. She was involved in someone's dream again!
"Yahoo!
"While thinking, a shout came from not far away, and a boy about the age of a junior high school student rushed over on a motorcycle. He was wearing a shabby leather jacket, holding a paper bag full of food with one hand, staring at the food rolling on the floor. The canned drink seemed to be shining with light in its eyes. "horsepower ice tea!" Energy is the best! "The junior high school student rider lowered the motorcycle sideways in a dangerous posture and reached for the canned drink!
"The energy is the best... eh?" Bang! A bat flew and the rider fell to the ground! The motorcycle moves forward with inertia! "I want this!
"A strange man with dark gray skin jumped from the top of a tall building. He picked up the bat and food bag, kicked the unconscious rider aside, and ran towards the motorcycle. "Great motorcycle!
"
Rei Shigure watched this scene from close range. The motorcycle rider and the gray-skinned weirdo were less than three meters away from her, but they both ignored her as if they hadn't seen her.
The weirdo is about to get on a motorcycle. "How about a motorcycle...?" But he couldn't reach it. The weirdo's body stopped on the spot, as if it was tied up by an invisible rope. "Who?!" No one responded. The weirdo's body flew into the air and crashed to the ground! "Ah!" Hit him once! "ah!
"Beat twice!"
He was beaten eight times in one breath and the weirdo fell into coma!
Now the two uninvited guests were lying on the ground, footsteps sounded, and a black-haired child walked out of the alley. He looked older than when he was on the containment ship, but his expression was more gloomy.
As a child, Gongsun Ce used telekinesis to grab half of the food from the bag, picked up a few cans of drinks, and jumped on the motorcycle.
At this time, she saw a gray-haired young man running from the other end of the street. He looked left and right, as if he was sizing up his surroundings.
Rei Shigure whistled.
The gray-haired Gongsun Ce glanced at the back of his childhood self, met her eyes, and his face immediately turned green.
"Don't……"
The young boy rode away on his motorcycle, leaving behind only the dissipating noise and exhaust fumes. Rei Shigure crossed his arms and said, "First grab the food and then the car. You are so skilled."
Gongsun Ce covered his face and groaned: "Forget what happened just now, okay..."
"Cut the nonsense and keep up."
Rei Shigure stepped forward, and the superpower followed with a grimace. They walked at a normal pace, but easily kept up with the children riding motorcycles.
They followed the black-haired child as he wandered through the city, watching him pass through smoke-filled streets one after another, passing among unconscious people or lifeless corpses. Occasionally, when Gongsun Ce was a child, he would take the initiative to stop and pick up a piece of relatively clean clothes, or go to the building to search for some survival resources.
More often than not, he would stop passively, and groups of small and large groups would come to attack him, trying to rob him of food or motorcycles. These superpowers were easily solved by him, and the combat effectiveness of both sides was not at the same level. After defeating the enemy, he went on his way without saying a word or doing a thing.
This place is like a post-apocalyptic ruins. Everyone is grabbing resources in different forms, and there is no order that belongs to modern society. The young Gongsun Ce walked around and walked out of the neighborhood after more than an hour and came to an area that was still under construction.
There are many soldiers patrolling the new neighborhood, cranes and excavators are still working, and most of the buildings have not yet been completed. He paused in front of the "No. 1 Primary School in the Central District" and looked at the newly built playground. There are many children peeking at the scene outside.
Gongsun Ce, who was a child, did not go in. He continued to ride his motorcycle aimlessly, and finally stopped at the entrance of another deserted alley. He walked deep into the dark alley, scraped away the water and garbage with telekinesis, sat down against the wall, and took out an apple.
Shigurei and Gongsun Ce stood beside the child. It was still raining and they found no umbrella but only two raincoats.
"Is this another node of yours?"
"I don't think so." The gray-haired young man said sadly, "This was not long after the Sky City was opened. From this period to more than three years later, it was a period of... garbage time for me."
"Let me guess. Robbing supplies, fighting, living alone, becoming more and more autistic, and finally becoming the street gangster you hate most."
"Can we skip this topic?"
Rei Shigure looked at the child eating an apple. This naturally talkative child has been running around for almost half a day without saying a word. He finished chewing the apple and huddled alone in the depths of the alley, crying softly.
The famous demon was hiding and crying alone. If he could record it, he would probably be fetched a sky-high price in the current Sky City. Rei Shigure tried to encourage himself with such jokes, but his mood could not be lifted.
Gongsun Ce spoke awkwardly: "Don't mention this to other people, okay?"
"Sister, have I ever tasted this bad?"
"Haha." The superpower person smiled dryly, "Now this is the passage between nodes?"
"Yes, the path formed by memory fragments. Sometimes there will be a dream like this when the two nodes are separated for a long time, helping you to smoothly transition to the next formal lucid dream and understand your original mood more deeply."
There is no need to interfere in this kind of dream, no need to do anything more, just watch from the side.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Little Gongsun Ce used his telekinesis to hold an umbrella for himself, and the two adults had to find an eaves to take shelter from the rain.
Gongsun Ce looked frustrated: "Miss Shiyu, how long will this passage last?"
"How do I know your situation? It's possible in a week, a month, a year, it all depends on your talent."
The rain fell endlessly. The wind blew the raindrops everywhere, making the sheltering eaves useless. When Gongsun Ce was a child, he fell asleep in an alley, and the gray-haired young man squatted on the street.
"At this time, the orbital elevator has not been built yet, and all the blocks except Cangshou District are under construction. There is a shortage of supplies in Cangqiong City, and everyone is calling here and there just to get food." Gray raindrops reflected in his eyes, "Canopy It hasn't been built yet, so there will be extreme weather occasionally. In fact, it's just for this period of time...it will be fine soon."
"You just stay alone like this."
Gongsun Ce rubbed his wet hair.
"When it rains, I really hope someone is around, so I can use telekinesis to look cool and hold an umbrella for him."
Now that the dream has come true, telekinesis is no longer available.
"Too stupid."
"right."
They stopped talking. The rain kept falling.
"I will accompany you to see such a depressing bad day now."
The superpower remained silent. Rei Shigure poked him with her toe.
"It's still a rainy day."
Gongsun Ce looked at the falling rain and spoke gloomily.
"Thanks."
"cut."
Soon after, the rain stopped, and little Gongsun Ce started taking action again. They watched the children walking through the city until they woke up at dawn.
You are a genius, remember in one second: Red Oasis:
