today i died again

"Your Majesty announced you into the palace. What did you do again?"

The next night in the Cheng family, the head of the family, Cheng Hezheng, aggressively questioned Cheng Erqingdao.

- What can I do?It's not that he used the system to help the empire find a treasure. According to the system, Mr. King intends to reward him for his merits.

"Don't worry, I didn't fix anything. Even if something happens, I won't implicate you. Trust me."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Erqing clearly saw the four big characters on Cheng He's face - nonsense.

"Master, it's almost time, the second young master should go." The butler said cautiously beside him.

That's right, Mr. King is not a master who can wait for others.

Cheng Erqing slandered, and then saw Cheng He wave his hand with a dark face.

"Talk to me well, don't make His Majesty angry! Be careful with your skin!"

——Domestic violence is unacceptable.

Cheng Erqing thought silently.

After taking the "benefit" from the king, he must move out, so he won't stay with this place any longer.

……

Just as the system said, the king was very grateful to Cheng Erqing for his "accidental fall". Considering that the Cheng family where Cheng Erqing belonged was one of the four major families in the empire, it seemed that Cheng Erqing didn't need such vulgar rewards as money, so he accepted the bishop's offer. For his suggestion, Cheng Erqing was given a pretty decent reward—an honor—"The Light of the Empire".

Although this thing cannot be exchanged for money, people, or land, as long as it is obtained, it will be respected by the people of the entire empire.

—Uh, what the hell? !

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dry!It is enough to salute and thank you.

The system quietly said:

"The recipients of 'Light of Empire' can freely enter and leave any foreign business place funded by the state in the empire. No matter how much you spend in this place, there is no so-called maximum amount limit. At the same time, the 'Light of Empire' is obtained from you From now on, you don’t have to pay taxes or perform military service, and once the statutory retirement age is reached, the state will provide pension security at the highest level.”

Cheng Erqing: "..."

It's impossible for him to serve in the military or even pay taxes here, okay?He is the son of a proper family, he is studying in an abandoned house.As for going to high-consumption places, come on, he's even less interested.

So, the benefits listed above have half a dime relationship with him? !

system:"……"

——What should I do if the host makes me want to cry every time?

……

Cheng He looked at Cheng Erqing in disbelief, and the honor certificate that followed him back.

"What the hell did you do?"

——To get such an honor?

Looking at the entire empire, there are less than ten people who hold this title, and it is clear what kind of illegitimate child they have. How could they be eligible for this honor?

Your Majesty is really old-eyed, dizzy, and brain is not working well, is it?

"Your Majesty said that thanks to the proper position of my fall, he found the spirit bottle, so he gave me this thing as a reward."

Mr. Wang said that now that the spirit bottle has been confirmed to be found, the good news will be shared with the people of the whole country, so he does not need to keep it a secret, just tell it directly when asked.

"... Spirit bottle?!"

Cheng He's eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

Cheng Erqing smiled.

"That's right, the spirit bottle. I don't know exactly what's going on. In short, you can pay attention to the current affairs news tomorrow. Your Majesty said that the morning paper will report in detail tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Erqing walked to the room on his own, not bothering to care that Cheng He was still there inexplicably surprised behind him.

Tomorrow's affairs will be discussed tomorrow, so he should wash and sleep first tonight.

……

The person who agreed to wash up and sleep saw his "toy" still awake, and his drowsiness disappeared immediately.

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

Didn't you say don't wait?Why are you waiting?

Alas, I don't know what Mr. Wang thinks, just call him into the palace, and you have to wait until evening, and don't leave anyone for a meal, there is no sincerity at all.

Negative Ratings.

With that said, Cheng Erqing walked up to Xia Yu and pinched Xia Yu's pretty face.

"It's grown some meat, it's fine, I like it very much." Cheng Erqing said with a smile.

Xia Yu resisted the urge to break free, and told herself in her heart that her stupid master was really stupid, so she had to hold back.

After all, it is impossible to kill the master now. If you are not capable enough, you will suffer serious backlash.

"Here, just in time, I brought you delicious pastries. I tried it, it's really good! Give—"

Cheng Erqing took out the carefully placed pastry box and handed it to Xia Yu.

Although the king was very stingy, at least he was willing to give him cakes, and of course only a few pieces.

Well, it's still petty to say that.

Xia Yu took the box and opened it.

The delicate and alluring pastry exudes a seductive aroma.

——This thing is so small that it can't fill your stomach at all!Even in low-level neighborhoods, he doesn't like this kind of thing that sounds delicious, but in fact, it is not as useful as half a compressed biscuit in terms of energy supplement.

So how did the stupid master think he would like this thing?

The system mocked and said, "Xia Yu disliked that the food you gave was not nutritious enough to replenish energy and wasted time chewing hahahaha."

Cheng Erqing: "..."

Damn it, it's enough for the spicy chicken system to start mocking again!

"Then what, why am I a little hungry, don't be in a hurry to eat, or give me some food."

Cheng Erqing made a step down for himself.

When he saw Xia Yu holding the box, he didn't intend to do anything, and he really felt like a sucker.

——I don’t even know how to choose the right one for a small gift.

Xia Yu silently handed the box back to Cheng Erqing.

——Since the stupid master said so, he ordered it directly.

Cheng Erqing ate the snacks and rubbed his belly.

Still hungry.

However, family rules stipulate that food will not be served after the meal time.Of course, if another person makes the request, there may still be discussions.For example, elder brother Cheng Yi, or younger brother Cheng Zuo, but as an illegitimate child, he should forget about it.

Because it hurts to think about it.

"are you hungry?"

Seeing Cheng Erqing's eating speed, Xia Yu suddenly realized a possibility and asked Cheng Erqing.

Cheng Erqing: "... a bit. Those people in the palace are very stingy and don't give them food."

Even if it was only a few yuan of snacks, Xia Yu was disgusted and unhappy.

"Can you eat compressed biscuits?"

He also has more stored food that can replenish energy, but think about it, the stupid master seems to have a bad stomach, and that kind of food is not suitable for the stupid master.

Cheng Erqing's eyes lit up.

"eat!"

He knew that Xia Yu was the best, he could always think of him, and treated him very well.

Eating the biscuits Xia Yu gave, Cheng Erqing was even happier.

——Xia Yu was indeed still the Demon King Xia in his memory, hard-spoken and soft-hearted, who would care about him and even take care of him.

Even in the new world, they still treat him well.

Hahahaha, so happy!

……

Early the next morning, Cheng Erqing, who was still in a daze, was woken up by the smart housekeeper.

Then he found Cheng He standing beside his bed.

startled him.

"Look at what you've done!"

Cheng He threw the paper newspaper in Cheng Erqing's face.

Uh... It's clearly the era of intelligence, but the so-called nobles in this world still advocate paper newspapers that waste resources, that's enough.

Cheng Erqing grumbled, peeled off the newspaper from his face, and read it.

The huge current affairs news page talked about the deeds of "Empire of Light", but obviously Cheng He wouldn't scold him for this kind of news.

and so--

Cheng Erqing quickly browsed the other boards, well, he saw it - the keyword of the headline title of the entertainment board was the glaring "pedophile".

He also used a strange font on purpose, which made his eyes a little hot.

"'Light of the Empire' turned out to be a child lover! Your Majesty was very angry when he found out. If the bishop hadn't persuaded His Majesty, you, the so-called 'Light of the Empire', should be in prison now!"

Cheng He roared angrily.

"Hurry up, give me that toy of yours! Immediately issue a national statement! Anyway, if you don't settle this matter today, I will never let you go lightly!"

Cheng Erqing showed a frightened expression on his face, and said again and again: "Okay. I'll take care of it!"

Cheng He left after getting a satisfactory answer.

Seeing the door closed, Cheng Erqing rubbed his face, rolled up the newspaper with the picture of him pinching Xia Yu's face at the engagement scene, and threw it on the ground.

Just pinching the face is equivalent to "pedophilia"?

Damn, it seems that the conscience of the entertainment moderator really does not exist.

But forget it, whoever let himself still be under someone else's roof, there is no need to start a conflict now, just bear with it.

"Time to wake up!"

Cheng Erqing lifted the quilt on one side, and revealed a guy who might have shrunk his head in when Cheng He came in.

Sure enough, Xia Yu's eyes were open, and she looked very awake.

"We should go."

Cheng Erqing said to Xia Yu, got out of bed and began to pack up.

"Little Beep, put the things I asked you to store at the door and call a car for me. I'll be out in half an hour." At the same time, Cheng Erqing ordered the smart housekeeper.

Xia Yu stared at Cheng Erqing's back for a second, then jumped off the bed silently, put on her clothes with a blank expression.

"I packed your luggage for you. See if there is anything else that needs to be added or subtracted. If there is no problem, we will leave in 10 minutes."

While talking, Cheng Erqing took out two suitcases from the cabinet, opened one of them, and handed it to Xia Yu.

Among the two boxes, one was made for himself, and it was filled with food and medicine, while the other was for Xia Yu, with similar items.

Xia Yu glanced at the suitcase that Cheng Erqing had "packed" for him.

Compressed foods with high energy, easy to carry, and long shelf life, necessary medicines, including trauma medicines, sports charging lighting devices, portable tools that can purify most of the water at any time, and - extremely lethal powerful weapon.

Xia Yu subconsciously glanced at the other suitcase next to Cheng Erqing.

"Whose box is it?" he asked.

Cheng Erqing smiled.

"Mine. It's fair for you and me. How about it? They're all simple necessities of life. Do you think it's appropriate?"

To be more precise, some escape necessities.In the past few days, apart from accumulating points to "earn extra money", he basically spent the rest of his time preparing for escape——

Because according to the system, at ten o'clock this morning, an acute virus that can infect humans will break out in the royal city.If there is no serological analysis, whoever catches the virus will die.Moreover, within three hours after being infected, the infected person will generate powerful attack power, lose their minds at the same time, and actively attack any creature they see.After three hours, the body of the virus-infected person will lose all functions and die completely.

This virus is highly contagious.

The routes of transmission are saliva and blood.It was not much different from the zombie virus that Cheng Erqing had seen in movies and TV dramas.It's just that the zombie virus is more vicious.

"where are we going?"

Xia Yu asked while checking the items in "my" suitcase.

He just thought—

Forget it, I just thought about it.How could the stupid master give up gouging his eyes and let him go now?

After all, such a stupid master.

"I've found a basement, and I'll hide for a few days, and we'll see what happens." Cheng Erqing replied.

The system said that this wave of virus will pass soon without any accidents, at most two weeks.He has stored food and other things in the basement he found before, and he thinks there shouldn't be any major problems.

But this world is really cruel.

When he came here, he originally thought that this was a world of mechas, and everyone drove all kinds of cool mechas to fight in the universe.Who would have thought that within a few days, it would become an "evolved" version of Zombie Lost City.

The turning point is also big enough.

Xia Yu's hands kept moving.

He put some high-energy food that he could store in the suitcase to prevent accidents from happening before, and he didn't speak.

Because there is nothing to say.

He could tell that the stupid master obviously wasn't telling the truth.

But I can understand it when I think about it. After all, he is just a toy, and there is no need for a stupid master to say too much about a toy.
