Chapter 255 I’m afraid it will only make me more upset.
It was not until the evening of the next day that Chi Yu and his friends waited for Shousui to return.
As soon as Shousui's car stopped by the roadside, Chi Yu hurried over to greet him. "Did the journey go smoothly?"
Shousui got out of the car and glanced at Chi Yu, "Of course it will be very smooth with me there."
"That's good." Hearing him say that, Chi Yu finally felt relieved. When he saw Gu Xulin and others getting off the car one after another with injuries on their bodies, he couldn't help but ask Shou Sui, "What happened to them?"
Shousui opened his mouth to explain, but Heci beside him spoke first, "Let's go inside first."
"Okay, I'll tell you slowly later." The matter was a long one and it would be difficult to explain it in a short time. Thinking of this, Shousui quickly held back the words and said to Chi Yu.
He Ci led Gu Xulin and others to Zuo Xiao and Rong Yi who were approaching this side and introduced them to each other. After that, he and Zuo Xiao continued to lead Gu Xulin and others to the temporary residence.
Shousui glanced at Yifeng, Mo Yuankai, Zuo Xiao and others who came out of the house to greet him. Seeing that one of them was missing, Shousui couldn't help but ask Mo Yuankai, "Where's Xiaochen?"
While Mo Yuankai and his companions invited Gu Xulin and others into the house, he responded to Shousui, "I took Xiaohei out for a walk early in the morning. Do you have something to do with Shouchen? Do you need me to call them back?" Although he knew that Shousui could summon Shouchen and others directly, Mo Yuankai still asked casually.
Shousui shook his head slightly, "No need." Then he pulled Chi Yu aside and looked him up and down. "Did those two zombies bully you?"
"What two zombies?" Chi Yu slapped his hand that was clenched on her wrist and muttered in defense for Mo Yuankai and Shouchen, "Why do you want to bully me when Xiaochen is so obedient?"
"I'm just worried about you. After all, He Ci and I are not here. What if they get hungry and eat you? Wait..." Shou Sui was halfway through his joke when he saw a strawberry mark on Chi Yu's neck. He chuckled, "Oh, so it seems that Mo Yuankai 'bullied' you?"
Feeling Shousui's gaze fixed on his neck for a while, and hearing the other party's tone of eating melons, and the last sentence with a special meaning, Chi Yu thought about it from beginning to end before reacting. He immediately blushed and hurriedly pulled up the collar of his sweater to cover it. He glared at Shousui and shouted guiltily, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"If you tease me again, I will tell Brother He Ci to deal with you! Humph!" Chi Yu turned his head away with a look of feigned anger, as if he didn't want to pay any more attention to Shousui.
Shousui grinned without fear, "Sue, go ahead and sue. I want to see whether your brother Heci wants to eat melons with me, or whether he wants to deal with me."
"You!" Chi Yu never expected that this guy would become more and more mean. He was so angry that he couldn't help but kick Shou Sui's calf.
Shousui dodged nimbly and Chi Yu kicked him in the air. "Hey, you can't hit me!" He laughed blatantly and made a face at Chi Yu. Then he threw his backpack over his shoulder and walked towards the temporary residence. "If you don't go, I will. Go back and tell He Ci."
"!!!" Chi Yu was so angry that he stomped his feet on the spot, "You are not allowed to go! You are not allowed to go! Do you hear me! Ah! I am so angry!"
Seeing Shousui covering his ears with his hands and walking away without looking back, as if he didn't want to hear anything, Chi Yu gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and hurriedly chased after him.
The house they chose was quite large, with three floors upstairs and downstairs. Apart from the room they had stayed in, there were still several empty rooms. Yifeng and Rongyi led Xiang Aonan, Tang Qian and others to clean up the remaining empty rooms one by one.
Gu Xulin was already covered in injuries and had been holding on all the way back. Mu Yun helped him to sit down on the sofa to rest. Gu Xulin's face looked much paler at this time. Xiang Aoqing beside him checked his injuries and changed the medicine.
Shousui looked around at the people resting in the room, and when he saw Gu Xulin's weak state, he couldn't help but feel a little more guilty. If it weren't for him and He Ci, how could Gu Xulin have suffered this disaster?
Moreover, Shousui always felt that Gu Xulin's overall state was very wrong. Perhaps it was because Gu Xulin was not only subjected to severe physical torture during the few days captured by Luo Tingyu, but also because of the loss of the system, Gu Xulin's psychology seemed to be severely hit. The whole person's state from the inside out exuded a sense of...death.
Like an eagle with broken wings, falling from a height of ten thousand meters, the whistling wind in his ears was the enemy's endless mockery, he struggled, he was unwilling, he tried to flap his wings again, but in vain. And the clouds that always accompanied him just watched him fall, letting him fall.
With a final "thump", he fell into a deep pool. The dark water completely submerged Gu Xulin. His once sharp eyes had finally lost their luster and spirit, leaving only dejection.
On the way back from Fengling City, Shousui pestered Xuansang about Gu Xulin's situation and asked him why the system was taken away.
It turns out that after the Phantom God System is bound to a host, there is a chance to change the host once, but if you want to change the host, you need to terminate the contract with the original host. In other words, the host can only be changed without damage only with the consent of the original host and the system.
But Shousui felt that Gu Xulin did not look like someone who would voluntarily cancel the contract and give up the system, so he must have been forced, and Xi Yan also chose someone else and did not form a united front with him, so Gu Xulin's system was successfully taken away by Luo Tingyu.
Shousui couldn't imagine how desperate Gu Xulin was at that time? Even the system that had been with him all along had given up on him, so how could he fight against Luo Tingyu and the others alone?
Shousui walked straight towards Gu Xulin and the other two who were sitting on the sofa in the living room, poured all the medicines in his backpack onto the table, and said to Mu Yun and Xiang Aoqing, "If you don't have enough medicines and gauze, I have more here."
"Thank you!" Mu Yun once again expressed his gratitude to Shousui and all of them. If it weren't for Heci and the others' help, he didn't know what else he could do. Mu Yun was very glad that Major Gu didn't choose to be an enemy of Shousui and the others. He was also very grateful for everything that Shousui and the others had done for them.
"Why thank you? We're friends, it's my duty." Faced with Gu Xulin who was in an extremely low mood, Shousui didn't know how to comfort him. He thought about it for a long time, and when those caring words came to his lips, he pondered for a long time but still didn't know how to start. He was afraid that if he mentioned Xi Yan now, Gu Xulin would only be more upset.
Finally, Shousui just patted Mu Yun on the shoulder and said to them, "You guys should stay here and take good care of your injuries for the next few days. We'll talk about it later. It won't be too late to make plans after Xu Lin has recovered from his injuries."
"Yeah." Mu Yun nodded and replied, "I'll have to trouble you to take care of me in the future."
After Xiang Aonan and the others had cleaned up the room, He Ci said to Mu Yun, "Take your boss upstairs to have some rest first. Dinner will be served later. If you need anything, just come to me."
"Okay." Mu Yun thought so too. He nodded and called Xiang Aonan to lead the way. The two of them supported the half-conscious Gu Xulin up the stairs, one on each side.
After a day's journey, He Ci asked Mo Yuankai to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner for everyone, and Zuo Xiao also went in to help. However, since there was no water or electricity, it was impossible to cook a proper meal, so He Ci just bought some self-heating hot pots.
During dinner, when listening to Xiang Aonan and others talking about a series of events that happened in Z City since Shousui and others left, although Chi Yu and others had already learned from Zuo Xiao that Luo Tingyu was most likely Professor Lou Linlou, but when they heard it confirmed from Xiang Aonan and others personally, they still felt a little shocked and angry from the bottom of their hearts.
They were shocked that Luo Tingyu had hidden so deeply, and they were angry that they were all deceived by the seemingly honest Luo Tingyu.
