The person in front of me looked like a bully who made fun of women from good families.

The man's footsteps paused, and the corners of his mouth twitched inconspicuously: "You are really as good as ever..." Showy.

Whether it was operations or people, he didn't say the last word.

Ye Xunzhi raised his eyebrows.

He said this as if he knew her very well.

But Ye Xunzhi touched her chin, wondering why she didn't remember that she knew such a handsome guy.

But the other party seemed to be easy to talk to. Ye Xunzhi stepped forward and decided to talk. She raised a bright smile and stretched out her hand:

"Hello, handsome guy..."

The next second, the handsome boy in front of her shrank into a six-year-old boy. Although he became smaller, his delicate face could still see the superior outline of the future.

He raised his head and looked at Ye Xunzhi, who was momentarily exposed as an old man on the subway looking at his cell phone. The two looked at each other in confusion.

Ye Xunzhi's face was expressionless.

[The handsome guy shrinks, suspends the clichés, and switches to a sincere route. 】

"Hello Conan, where did you come from?"

Ye Xunzhi showed a wicked face and grabbed the other person:

"Identity, name, age, where are you, how should I go back, tell me honestly and I will consider saving your life."

Little boy: How come this person is still so realistic after so many years?

He slowly explained:

"Ren Chen, this is my name."

In view of his understanding of the person in front of him and knowing that the other person would really beat him without the bonus of that face, Ren Chen decisively confessed.

It is not shameful to slide to one's knees. What is shameful is to slide to one's knees after being beaten. As long as he lowers his head fast enough, the opponent's fist will not fall on his face!

"Ren Chen." Ye Xunzhi tasted the name, "You look familiar to me. Do we know each other?"

"Of course I do."

Seeing Ye Xunzhi sitting back on the chair on the side of the pavilion, Ren Chen sat opposite her and naturally poured her a cup of tea.

"I know what you want to ask, and I will answer it for you one by one."

He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the next moment the garden scenery disappeared, replaced by a vast sea of ​​stars above his head, and the surrounding area instantly turned from day to night.

[I am so careless, this guy has something on him! 】

[I can only attack physically, but the opponent can attack with spells. 】

Ye Xunzhi remained calm on the surface but panicked on the inside. She picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea to calm down her panic.

"Then let me introduce myself first." Ren Chen walked up to Ye Xunzhi, regained his adult appearance, and gave an elegant gentlemanly courtesy.

"In a popular sense, I am the consciousness of this world. You can also call me the way of heaven."

"I think you must have been curious about Irene's identity for a long time. She is not a human being."

"Well done!" Ye Xunzhi applauded, "This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard from you since we met."

Ren Chen: "...but I mean that literally. She is really not a human being. In fact, to a certain extent, she and I are the same existence."

The man took a step forward and clapped his hands gently. The next moment, all the surrounding light was swallowed up, and then small groups of light lit up around the two of them, illuminating their faces.

"See, this is like the universe. The light ball in your hand represents a world, and it also represents a world consciousness, which is a god like me."

【god? ] Ye Xunzhi raised his hand and poked the ball of light seemingly carelessly.

[What a condescending title. 】

She doesn't like anyone in this world except the God of Wealth.

As if seeing Ye Xunzhi's attitude, Ren Chen smiled: "If you don't like it, then I'll explain it differently."

"If the universe is compared to a forest, then there are countless worlds in the forest. Each world is a tree. The main world is the thickest trunk, and the other branches extending out are parallel worlds one after another. .”

"Irene is one of the world consciousnesses, but her tree has not digested it well internally."

"If the most unlucky person in the world, who can be called the hero and heroine in the novel, is compared to the roots of a tree that absorb nutrients for its survival, then there is undoubtedly something wrong with her."

"So she decided to hit my tree, wanting to steal my nutrients for her own survival. For this reason, she even did not hesitate to directly devour all the energy in her world, and then He transformed into a human form and came to our world.”

Ye Xunzhi drank his last sip of tea: "How to swallow it?"

Ren Chen tilted his head with a smile, but with the indifference of a god in his eyes, he softly uttered one word: "Kill."

After a pause in drinking tea, Ye Xunzhi put down the cup, "I see, but this sounds more like a competition in your world. What does it have to do with me?"

"Of course it does matter." Seeing Ye Xunzhi pushing the tea cup over, acting like an uncle, Ren Chen didn't care and poured tea for her indulgently.

"In fact, she once tried to persuade you to go to her world. For this, she can give you everything you want, whether it is wealth or status."

"As I said before, if you compare the luckiest person in the world to your roots, you are undoubtedly very good."

[Thank you for recognizing my excellence, but...]

Ye Xunzhi was simply puzzled:

"Then was I crazy when I refused, or was I brainwashed by you? Why would I give up the stars and the sea for a ruined temple?"

Isn't it just a matter of changing jobs? She can do that!

Ren-Broken Temple-Shen: Has this person already seen that he won't do anything to her?

"In fact, the reason why you refused in the first place was because the only person Irene wanted was you, and you were the only one of value to her."

"She wants you to cooperate with her and kill me together. Then she will devour the energy of my original world and create a new world for you."

Ye Xunzhi was silent for a moment, understanding it in such a concrete way for the first time.

What does it mean that this world really can’t turn around without me?

At the same time, she suddenly realized why she refused in the first place.

Devouring means that everyone in the original world, except herself, will die, and then Irene will create a new batch of humans and put her into the new world.

"I know why I refused, but what happens next?" Ye Xunzhi raised his eyes.

"She deleted your memory of meeting her."

Ren Chen leaned lazily on the chair, staring directly at the girl. The next moment, Ye Xunzhi was surprised to find that his body had changed back to the appearance of an adult in his twenties.

"This is how old you were when I first met you. After she deleted your memory, she didn't plan to kill you at first. Instead, she wanted to take your body, and then use your body carrying luck to Come close to me."

"But later she discovered that you were too lucky to take over your body easily, so she turned her attention to your family."

"There are many keys to a person's luck, among which the relatives around him are the most important part. This is especially obvious for you."

Ye Xunzhi pressed his fingertips on the table. Ren Chen's eyes fell on the other person's snow-white fingers. He stretched out his hand and a delicate dessert plate appeared in front of him the next second.

Macarons, black forest...all kinds of desserts.

Ren Chen held his chin with one hand: "Eat it, I remember you like to eat these."

"Is this what I told you, or did you realize it yourself as the Dao of Heaven?"

Ye Xunzhi dragged a piece of black forest in front of him, took a bite and put it in his mouth. It was no different from what was sold outside, and it was even very delicious.

"Of course you told me."

Ren Chen lowered his eyes, as if thinking of some past events:

"She focused on your family members and killed them one by one. Not only did she reduce your luck to prepare for future seizures, but she also devoured your family members' luck to strengthen herself."

Ye Xunzhi's breathing was slightly stagnant.

But she wasn't too busy getting angry, instead she sorted out her thoughts.

"Oh, I see, the relationship between you two is like that of a critically ill patient in the ICU."

Ren Chen:...What the hell kind of metaphor is this.

"You two are in the same ward, each with a ventilator. There is a medical staff (referring to the male and female protagonist) every day to help you check."

"But one day Erin's ventilator broke down, and the medical staff who were supposed to check her every day were gone. Seeing that she was getting cold, she decided to put your ventilator in place, and wanted to remove your tube and insert it. On your own side."

"Without the help of medical staff (male and female protagonists), she can only fend for herself with difficulty, but she was unlucky enough to meet me, your medical staff."

"Her first thought was to bribe me, but the reward she offered was chocolate, and what I like is money."

"You are the only one with money, so I can only protect you. Since she failed to bribe me, I can only try another way to kill me and then pull out your tube. Is this the truth?"

Rough words are not rough.

Ren Chen nodded with difficulty: "That's the truth."

Ye Xunzhi said with a sudden tone: "It turns out that because of you, I have been fighting against the middle school in the world."

She stretched out her hand towards Ren Chen, who stared at the hand stretched out in front of her in confusion.

"what?"

"Money." Ye Xunzhi couldn't be more confident:

"Let me ask you, is her goal to devour you? Am I your protective umbrella?"

"That's right."

"That's right. If you pay the protection fee, I, Ye Xunzhi, will never be able to work for nothing in my life!"

Ren Chen: "..."
