Chapter 328 - Investigating -- Chen Yu (1)
Creak.
Pushing open the shutter door of the underground garage, Chen Yu supported Bahuang Yao and slowly walked out.
Lifting his head, he looked at the snow on the branches of the pine trees. Bahuang Yao subconsciously tightened her body. "It"s a little cold."
"Mm." Chen Yu nodded. "After all, you"ve been dead for a few months. It"s winter now."
The girl stopped and turned her head. "Brother Yu, isn"t it impossible to resurrect when a person dies?"
"Yes."
"Then how did you save me?"
"It"s true that you can"t resurrect when a person dies." Chen Yu put his hands on the girl"s slender shoulders and said seriously, "But you weren"t completely dead."
"Ah..." Bahuang Yao was at a loss.
"It"s very troublesome to talk about. We have to start with the creation of Pangu."
Bahuang Yao: "..."
"Do you still want to hear it?"
"Yes."
Chen Yu: "..."
"Hahaha..." Bahuang Yao suddenly laughed happily.
"As expected of someone who has died twice." Chen Yu gave him a thumbs up expressionlessly. "You"re getting harder and harder to deal with."
"Actually..." Gradually, Bahuang Yao"s smile disappeared, and she said in a low voice, "What I want to ask is whether resurrecting me will cause damage to you. In this world, any gains must be accompanied by sacrifices."
"Oh, I see." Chen Yu waved his hand. "Then you don"t have to worry. It won"t affect anything."
"Then I can rest a.s.sured..."
"Just die for a while."
Bahuang Yao: "..."
At this moment, the sound of their conversation caught Ma Li"s attention in the villa.
She brought Ma Yan and walked to the garage door. When she saw Chen Yu and Bahuang Yao, her pupils constricted.
Ma Yan"s expression was also solemn.
The two of them clearly knew that Bahuang Yao was completely dead.
And now, she actually appeared in front of them "alive and kicking"...
Their worldview was immediately greatly impacted.
"You"re here." Chen Yu waved to Ma Li and Ma Yan. "Good afternoon."
"He... h.e.l.lo, Sisters." Bahuang Yao came back to her senses and hurriedly bowed.
"Gulp."
After swallowing her saliva with difficulty, Ma Li walked over step by step and circled Bahuang Yao four or five times.
"Oh." Bahuang Yao became nervous.
"Is... Is she really alive?" Ma Li stretched out her finger and touched Bahuang Yao"s skin tentatively.
Bahuang Yao: "..."
Seeing that the girl didn"t resist, Ma Li changed her finger to a hand and started to stroke her.
Bahuang Yao: "..."
As she touched it, she started to pinch it again.
Bahuang Yao: "...Ah."
Chen Yu frowned and slapped away Ma Li"s perverted hand. "Don"t pinch it randomly."
"It"s a real person..." Ma Li was stunned.
"If it"s not a real person, can it be silicone?" Chen Yu curled his lips in dissatisfaction. He turned to Bahuang Yao and asked with concern, "Xiao Yao, where did she pinch?"
"Here... Here."
"Oh, let me pinch it too..."
Bahuang Yao: "No... No."
"The art of G.o.ds and ghosts." Ma Yan walked over with a serious expression. "Chen Yu, how did you do it? How can a dead person come back to life?"
"I"ve already told you guys." Chen Yu spread his hands. "I want to resurrect Xiao Yao."
"We thought you..." Ma Li wanted to say something but hesitated. She carefully chose the words in her mind. "We thought you only said it because of Xiao Yao"s death and the mental impact was too great. Hmm... The obsession was too strong..."
"To put it bluntly, you thought that I looked like a lunatic."
"Don"t." Ma Li waved her hand awkwardly. "We can"t say that it was like, but it is exactly like that."
"A person cannot be resurrected after death. This is the most basic rule." Ma Yan interrupted Ma Li"s words and asked the question again. "How did you do it?"
"I can"t explain it clearly in a few sentences." Chen Yu waved his hand perfunctorily and then held Bahuang Yao"s hand. "I still have something to do, so I"ll go back first. I haven"t been home for a long time. My family is worried."
After saying that, he pulled the young girl and left.
His back view was extremely carefree.
"..."
Standing at the same spot, Ma Li and Ma Yan watched Chen Yu disappear at the corner of the door. They looked at each other, then immediately turned around and rushed into the underground garage.
They ran into the garage, and the two split up.
One side checked the traces on the ground, while the other searched for suspicious items.
After a long while, the two gathered in front of the simple wooden table and placed all the items they had collected on the table.
There were buoys, fishing lines, and plastic bags.
Water sacs, brushes, and ice cubes.
Clothes, vibrating eggs, sprinklers.
Wood, powder, dog leashes...
Ma Li: "..."
Ma Yan: "..."
Ma Li: "It seems like something strange has gotten in."
"Oh." Ma Yan took the eggs as if nothing had happened and put them into her pocket. "Mine. I bent over and it fell out just now."
Ma Li: "...Sister."
"Speak."
"You should run away from home."
"Just because of one egg, you want to sever your relationship with me?"
"This isn"t a problem of one egg."
"Two eggs won"t do either."
"..." Clenching her fists, Ma Li couldn"t take it anymore. "Sister! You"re like this every day. You"re getting more and more perverted, alright!"
Dong!
As she said that, Ma Li slammed her fists on the table in anger.
Padah.
Then, an egg fell from her body.
Ma Yan: "..."
Ma Li: "..."
She bent down and picked it up expressionlessly. Ma Li said seriously, "As the saying goes, when you have to forgive someone, you have to forgive them. I won"t scold you anymore. It won"t happen again."
Ma Yan: "..."
With both hands on the table again, Ma Li separated the items one by one and looked left and right. "In the house, these are the only things. Did you find anything?"
"The most important things are these two." Ma Yan reached out and picked up the water bag and plastic bag. "What"s left in the water bag should be the liquid to remove the wood. What"s left in the plastic bag is the powder of the Wood Conversion Powder."
"It seems that Chen Yu brought us to the northeast for these two things."
"That"s right."
"But why is this Wood Conversion Powder red?" Ma Li picked up a part and placed it in front of her eyes to observe.
"This is a higher grade Wood Conversion Powder," Ma Yan said in a deep voice, "Even if a martial artist above Level 5 is touched by it, they will turn into wood."
"Then how did Chen Yu collect this thing?"
"I"m not sure."
"And these two things..." Ma Li was suspicious. "What does it have to do with reviving Bahuang Yao? Could it be that the red Wood Conversion Powder can be combined with the juice and resurrect?"
Ma Yan: "...Can you be a little more scientific?"
"But Chen Yu resurrected a dead person. This doesn"t make sense in the first place!" Ma Li scratched her head.
"He has secrets." Ma Yan"s eyes sparkled.
"You"re talking nonsense. Chen Yu has secrets everywhere."
Putting down the water and plastic bags, Ma Li"s eyes were blurred. "Chen Yu... is really a special man..."
Across the table, Ma Yan stared at Ma Li for a moment and raised her eyebrows. "Why? Do you like him?"
Hearing that, Ma Li was stunned. "Of course I like him!"
Ma Yan: "..."
...
"So so many things happened after I died."
On the snow-covered sidewalk, Bahuang Yao followed beside Chen Yu and said as they walked, "The world changes too quickly."
"Yeah." Chen Yu nodded. "There"s no signal in the wilderness now. And every few kilometers, there might be a void crack, causing more and more exotic beasts to appear outside the city."
"But fortunately, Shanghai withstood the Beast Tide..." Speaking up to this point, Bahuang Yao was in high spirits. "It"s really too amazing. We humans actually have a chance to defeat the Beast Tide."
"Of course." Chen Yu subconsciously puffed out his chest and said proudly, "After all, in this area of the Milky Way, I, Chen Yu, am in charge."
Bahuang Yao: "Ah?"
"Nothing." After a vague sentence, Chen Yu stopped and raised his hand to point at the residential building in front of him. "We"re here."
"Ah." The young girl raised her head. "Brother Yu, is this your home?"
"Yes. Let"s go."
"I... I"m going too?"
"That"s right." Chen Yu was puzzled. "Why else would I bring you here?"
"But... But I..." Bahuang Yao lowered her head and picked up her clothes. "I didn"t change into formal clothes, and I didn"t bring any gifts."
"It"s fine. Even if you wear a mech, it"s still flat."
Bahuang Yao: "..."
"Let"s go."
Pulling the young girl up carelessly, Chen Yu walked straight into the residential area. He walked into the unit building and came to his own security door. Under Bahuang Yao"s nervous gaze, he knocked on the door.
Knock, knock, knock!
"..."
After a long while, the bright cat"s eye in the middle of the door turned black. Then, the iron door was pushed open!
"Chen Yu!" Chen Siwen screamed and pounced on him excitedly.
For a moment, Chen Yu lost his balance and was pushed by Chen Siwen all the way to the neighbor"s house.
Plop!
In the end, the burglar-proof door of the neighbor"s house was overturned and Chen Yu fell to the ground.
The neighbor man who was eating noodles: "..."
The neighbor woman who was eating noodles: "..."
Chen Yu: "...You seem to be seriously ill."
"Oh..." Lying on Chen Yu"s body, Chen Siwen gradually woke up. She quickly got up and bowed to the neighbor. "I"m... I"m sorry. I didn"t do it on purpose."
The neighbor put down his bowl and lowered his head to look at the security door that had been reduced to a pile of sc.r.a.p metal under Chen Yu"s body. He nodded. "I believe you."
"I"m sorry." Chen Siwen was embarra.s.sed. "I"ll definitely compensate."
"Compensate... Yes, compensate." The man next door reacted and pushed the woman next to him. "Pay them whatever money we have."
Chen Siwen: "..."
"Sis, find some time to go to the hospital to have a look." Chen Yu got up and sighed. He took out 20,000 yuan from his backpack and placed it on the ground. He apologized to the neighbor, "I"m sorry, there"s something wrong with my sister"s brain. This money is compensation. I"m sorry, I"m sorry."
After saying that, he pushed the helpless Chen Siwen back into his living room.
Just as he was about to close the door, he saw Bahuang Yao standing outside the door in a daze. He pulled her into the house.
Dong!
The iron door was closed. Chen Yu looked around the house. As he changed his shoes, he asked, "Where"s Mom?"
"Mom and BB went shopping." As she said that, Chen Siwen bent down and took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet. She handed them to Bahuang Yao, who was a guest. "Here, wear this."
"Thank you, sorry to bother you." Bahuang Yao nodded politely.
"It"s okay, I won"t..." After a pause, Chen Siwen snapped back to her senses. She stared at Bahuang Yao with her eyes wide open. Her face was pale. "You... You... You are Bahuang Yao?!"
"It"s me." The girl bowed.
"You... aren"t you... dead... dead?!"
"Oh, Xiao Yao said that it"s not comfortable living underground. She came out to get some air," Chen Yu explained.
Hearing this, Chen Siwen"s head began to "zi zi" steam: "To... To... To..."
"Don"t listen to Chen Yu"s nonsense." Bahuang Yao wanted to speak but stopped: "I... I am alive again."
"..." The steam above Chen Siwen"s head increased, and her whole person had a faint tendency of dizziness.
"Forget it, I actually scared you." Seeing that Chen Siwen had something wrong, Chen Yu changed his words. "She was not completely dead. It is a kind of suspended animation. Now, I saved her."
"Brought back to life..."
After a long while, Chen Siwen slowly calmed down. She looked at Bahuang Yao up and down. "Did you use your special medicine?"
"Yes." Chen Yu said nonsense. "I gave her more than 6,000 injections and she came back to life."
Bahuang Yao: "..."
Chen Siwen: "Then she should be like a sieve."
"Let"s not talk nonsense for now. We have a guest. Don"t you know how to make a cup of tea?"
"No... There"s no need to trouble yourself." Bahuang Yao hurriedly waved her hand. "I don"t want to drink."
"Right, I"ll go get you guys some water." Chen Siwen immediately walked into the kitchen. "It"ll be ready in a moment."
"Sister, there"s really no need to trouble yourself!"
"You"re welcome." Chen Yu waved his hand. "With our relationship, just treat this place as your own home."
"Oh..." Bahuang Yao"s face flushed red.
She sat on the sofa in the living room for a while.
Chen Siwen walked over with a cup of tea, placed it on the coffee table, and pa.s.sed a cup to Bahuang Yao.
"Thank... Thank you." Bahuang Yao quickly took the cup and nodded nervously. "I can do it myself."
"Emmmm..." Chen Siwen continued to bend her waist as she sent out the tea, carefully observing Bahuang Yao.
"Sister..." The girl felt uncomfortable from being stared at, her b.u.t.tocks twisting and turning.
Chen Yu frowned. "Your b.u.t.tocks are p.r.i.c.kling."
"..." The girl immediately stopped moving.
"This... is she really alive?" Chen Siwen extended her finger and cautiously poked Bahuang Yao"s cheek. "It"s flesh."
"Don"t move your hands." Chen Yu was annoyed.
"I"m moving her face," Chen Siwen retorted.
"You can"t even move her face!"
"Then if I move her chest... Ah! It"s really a dummy! The chest is concave!" Chen Siwen was shocked.
"..." Bahuang Yao covered her aching heart with one hand.
Chen Yu spread his hands. "It"s because it"s sunken that it"s real."
"..." Bahuang Yao covered her chest with both hands...
"This..." Chen Siwen hesitated. "Is it a developmental deformity?"
"..." Bahuang Yao bent her back in pain.
"Stop talking." Chen Yu reached out to stop her. "It wasn"t easy for me to save her. Don"t die again."
Suddenly realizing that her words were not polite, Chen Siwen apologized. "Xiao Yao, I"m sorry. I didn"t mean any harm. It"s just that I thought you had pa.s.sed away, so I couldn"t react in time."
"It"s... It"s fine."
"Speaking of which..." Chen Siwen decisively changed the topic and looked at Chen Yu. The anger in her heart was rising. "Why did you go to Shanghai? You left just like that! Aren"t your family worried?!"
"I was just going to watch the show." Chen Yu picked up his teacup and calmly took a sip.
"Do you know that Mom and I are worried at home every day?"
"I know."
"Then why are you still wandering around?"
Clatter.
Putting down his teacup, Chen Yu adjusted his nonexistent gla.s.ses. "Because the world needs me."
"What do you mean?" Chen Siwen frowned.
"No other meaning. I"m a martial artist, and the Beast Tide is where I should go."
"You"re just a mere Level 2 cannon fodder. It doesn"t matter if they have you or not."
"War is like flushing after going to the toilet." Chen Yu"s expression was serious. "I don"t care if they have me or not, but I have to be there and watch the sh*t wash away."
Bahuang Yao: "..."
Chen Siwen: "...Your disgusting, bizarre, r*tarded, strange metaphor..."
"..."
"...It"s actually quite appropriate."
"...."
