today i died again

As soon as he went out, Cheng Erqing realized that he couldn't go out like this. When he entered the laboratory later, he couldn't touch the spirit bottle casually.

After thinking about it, he asked the system for an invisibility device like Xia Yu's. In the next instant, he disappeared into the air, and no one could see him.

Getting the spirit bottle is just a matter of reaching out.

No one in charge of night work around here noticed the small movements here—produced by the system, quality assurance—in silence, Cheng Erqing took the spirit bottle and squatted in a small corner where no one would come and go, Then silently draw the freshly released answer along the disposal position of the answer prompt, and draw the pattern line points in the answer on the spirit bottle.

The spirit bottle body gradually lit up.

Soft, white, with a little warm light.

Cheng Erqing felt the power blocking the spirit bottle, and was slowly being released by himself.

A gentle voice suddenly rang in his ear.

If it wasn't for self-control, Cheng Erqing probably jumped up on the spot the moment the voice came out.

Fortunately not.

The voice was asking him:

"Who do you want me to fix?"

The image of Xia Yu immediately appeared in Cheng Erqing's mind.

"Ok."

The voice said this almost at the same time.

- what's good? !

Before Cheng Erqing could react, a gleam of light flashed across the mouth of the spirit bottle, followed by another picture in Cheng Erqing's mind.

It was a boundless sea. In the middle of the sea, a small person was almost completely submerged in the sea, leaving only one head floating on top of it.Moreover, the other end is also sinking towards the bottom of the sea at a speed visible to the naked eye.

——It's Xia Yu!

Cheng Erqing recognized who that person was at a glance.

"According to the principle of restoration fairness, you, as the person making the request, will serve as the nourishment of the person being repaired. During the restoration period of the person being repaired, you will provide nutrients such as blood, flesh, bone, skin, tendons, veins, etc. to the restoration of the person being repaired. According to the physical condition of the person being repaired, the supply period is from now to the next two months and 24 days."

The voice continued.

Almost at the same time, a cramp-like pain came from deep inside Cheng Erqing's body.

The feeling was so realistic and terrifying that Cheng Erqing couldn't stand upright and fell to the ground.

But his hand held the spirit bottle firmly, not daring to let it fall.

"System, do me a favor..."

Cheng Erqing, whose eyes were blurred in pain, called the system in his mind.

"Please take this bottle to the place where it was just now, and take me back to the dormitory by the way. Don't let Xia Yu find out."

System: "...Xia Yu is already in the spirit bottle, so I won't find you. Also, 10 points will be deducted."

——Take advantage of the fire, dear!

……

"Mr. Cheng, you should get up. Mr. Cheng, you should get up."

The robot dutifully played the function of the alarm clock, urging Cheng Erqing to get up.

"...Got it, shut up!"

Cheng Erqing, who had been tormented by the piercing pain for half the night, opened his eyes impatiently and said.

"Xia Yu has been looking for you for half an hour." The system said flatly.

Cheng Erqing sat up suddenly, and that action almost hurt himself to death.

"Don't tell me sooner!"

He quickly motioned for the living robot to come and get dressed.

Originally, he didn't want to stretch out his hands and open his mouth, but it really hurt too much.

If he hadn't had to personally resign from the laboratory job with Mr. Wang today, he wouldn't have gotten out of bed at this point to make a fuss.

No way, resignation is inevitable.

He had already untied the "seal" of the spirit bottle—the system said it was a seal, so just treat it as it was—and sent Xia Yu into the spirit bottle for body repair and fusion of soul and body.Now that the goal has been achieved, all he needs to do now is to wait for the repair time limit to expire, and he will be able to leave after completing the task in this world.

That being the case, why waste his time in a lab that he can't even understand, right?

Therefore, it is the best choice to go back to live in the comfortable Cheng's house and wait for the return date.

……

"Xia Yu, I heard that you are looking for me, what's the matter, is there something uncomfortable?"

Cheng Erqing was talking to Xia Yu in his mind.

The system is very screwed.It's just a consciousness transmission, and it's enough for him to exchange one point for one minute.

"Brother, it's so big here, there's no sound, it's so quiet, do you want to come and play?"

Because of the fusion of soul and body from the beginning, his intelligence degenerated to zero overnight. After one night, he finally evolved to four or five years old, Xia Yu said to Cheng Erqing.

Both childish and heartwarming.

Cheng Erqing grinned as he clutched his little heart warmed by success:

"I still have something to do here. You know, my brother has to work. You stay there obediently, don't think about anything, listen to what the bottle says, and I'll pick you up when your body grows up, okay?"

Xia Yu seemed to nod her head, then paused.

Then in a soft, serious tone, he said:

"I listen to my brother. I wait for my brother."

"Well, I will definitely pick you up. Because I like Xia Yu the most." Cheng Erqing said with a smile.

The system gave a cold prompt: "1 minute is up. The signal transmission is cut off."

Cheng Erqing: "... Let me tell you, don't learn from the Big Three, otherwise you will have no friends."

……

"Are you really going to leave?" The king frowned, and asked Cheng Er, who was standing crookedly and out of place below.

Cheng Erqing replied: "Yes, Your Majesty. Although it's embarrassing, I still have to tell the truth. As for me, I have a low level of intelligence that has not been successfully civilized. I really don't deserve a place as high as the Kingdom Laboratory, so it's better to go early." It's better to leave."

king:"……"

It's almost overwhelmed by Cheng Er's shameless self-deprecating spirit.

"Since you insist—that's fine. But you are a subject who has made great contributions to the country. The reward I promised to give you before remains unchanged. You can ask me anytime." The king said.

——I can't tell, this uncle is quite honest.

Cheng Erqing smiled and saluted the king respectfully.

"I remember. Thank you, Your Majesty."

……

The Cheng family gave Cheng Erqing a grand welcome gift.

Literally that.

After all, the king gave Cheng Erqing a "reward" that he could ask for at any time. This kind of reward, in the whole country, is only available to Cheng Erqing, and there are almost no restrictions on paying him back.

Such treatment cannot be more enviable.

Therefore, it is a matter of course to put on a scene and welcome the hero of the empire and his second son - the illegitimate one too - back home.

"Welcome home brother!"

Cheng Er's younger brother Cheng Zuo sent a bouquet of flowers to Cheng Erqing's arms and said with a smile.

Cheng Erqing, who is very allergic to such hypocritical scenes, smiled on the surface: "Thank you."

Be patient, wait until the perfunctory passes, and the days to come will be beautiful.

Cheng Erqing encouraged himself.

"Brother, I have specially watched over your room and asked them to clean it up for you. You will definitely like it very much." Cheng Zuo said with a smile again.

Cheng Erqing, who only wanted to hear Xia Yu calling her brother: "Thank you. Then I'll go upstairs first."

"Hmm--Xiao Er, are you back?"

Cheng Er's cheap dad finally stopped being the background wall, and he started the awkward chat mode and said.

"Oh, yes. I'm back." Cheng Erqing said with a hypocritical smile.

Cheng He: "...It's good to come back. Okay, you rest first, and we have prepared a welcome event for you in the evening, so you can take part in it with your energy."

Cheng Erqing: "..."

Damn, still can't escape this hypocritical secular routine?

"Okay. Thank you, Dad." Cheng Erqing tried hard to keep his personality from collapsing, and smiled awkwardly.

……

Back in the room, Cheng Erqing threw himself on the bed, ordered the intelligent system to lock the door, drew the curtains, then closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Last night I was kept awake all night by the pain, now I finally catch my breath and the pain is gone, sleep is the right way.

I never thought that someone knocked on the door at this time.

"Brother, it's me. Can I come in?"

Cheng Zuo said this at the door.

——MDZZ, the doors are locked and you still ask this, can you use your brains? !

Cheng Erqing kept silent, intending to pretend to be asleep and pass the test.

Cheng Zuo didn't have the mental activity of getting to Cheng Erqing at all, so he raised his voice and said earnestly:

"Brother, I know you are here, please let me in, I really want to tell you something."

Dry!Can you stop talking like this, it makes people get goosebumps and stand up at any time, okay? !

"Brother, if you don't let me in, then I will come in by myself?"

Eh? !

Cheng Erqing's hair stood on end.

But before he could react, the door opened.

Cheng Zuo looked at the stunned Cheng Erqing with a smile, and shook the watch on his hand.

"I changed the access control system, so that I can come in and clean it for you at any time. You won't blame me, brother?"

Cleaning - shit!There are living robots, okay?

Cheng Erqing didn't even want to vomit.

"Say, what's the matter?" asked directly.

Cheng Zuo walked over to Cheng Erqing's bed with an obedient look, and looked at Cheng Erqing with sincerity in his eyes.

"Brother, you know, I like the third prince very much. I heard that His Highness the third prince is now in the military for an internship, so I want to ask my brother to help me in too, okay?"

Cheng Erqing felt as if he had heard a strange story: "..."

"Brother, help me! Dad won't help, saying that I'm too young to be with the third prince. Hmph! I'm not young anymore. In two years, I can get married. Now What's wrong with dating the third prince first? Brother, are you right?"

Cheng Zuo grabbed Cheng Erqing's hand, shook it back and forth, and pouted.

Seeing that, Cheng Erqing couldn't stop the chills.

"Since Dad said so, it's for your own good. I definitely dare not help you."

Besides, why should you help me? Which onion are you?Besides, I'm just a passer-by in this world, so help me out.

"No, brother, don't you have the heart to see your beloved brother sad?" Cheng Zuo held his mouth, looking at Cheng Erqing as if he was about to cry or not.

Cheng Erqing, who was frightened by this wave of operations: "..."

Damn, if you want to jump off a building to clear your eyes, where can you jump?

Cheng Erqing quickly withdrew his hand from Cheng Zuo's, turned over and jumped off the bed, picked up his coat and put it on, and walked straight to the door without saying a word.

"Brother—wait for me!"

Cheng Zuo followed behind and shouted.

Cheng Erqing walked quickly and rushed out the door.

Cheng Zuo almost ran after Cheng Erqing at the stairs in the corridor.

He grabbed Cheng Erqing's hand from behind.

"Brother! Why don't you listen to what others say!"

——Brother, please let me go, I am crooked, but not your crook. Thank you, please don't pester me, okay? !

"elder brother!"

"I said let go!"

That sound was really exciting, and Cheng Erqing's brain became hot when he heard it, and he felt like he was going crazy, so he turned his head and scolded sharply.

Cheng Zuo had a smile on his face, stepped forward half a step, and hugged Cheng Erqing with an intimate look.

"Brother, why are you like this?"

As he said this, his hands were suddenly exerting force in Cheng Erqing's direction. Cheng Erqing didn't expect this at all, and fell backwards without standing firmly on his feet.

Behind him were long steps.

"Brother, hold on tight."

At the same time, Cheng Zuo hugged Cheng Erqing even more tightly, almost stuffing himself into Cheng Erqing's arms.

In this way, when Cheng Erqing fell down, Cheng Zuo fell down the steps.

When Cheng Erqing recovered from being thrown to the ground, and finally opened his eyes to look around, he saw Cheng Zuo lying on the ground with blood on his face, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

"what have you been doing?!"

Cheng He's voice sounded like thunder.
