Chapter 251 There is an old saying, what comes comes comes
In his arms, the body of the girl with high ponytail suddenly trembled.
"It's true." Luo He said softly, "I will give you that letter when I get back."
Li Wanqing had too many surprises and too many questions.
Her thoughts were like a mess, and she wanted to ask all the questions.
But she just wiped away her tears silently, grabbed Luo He's arms with both hands harder, and nodded quietly.
As Luo He said, you should calm down now and deal with things properly.
The mixed-race beauty let out a gentle breath, put her hands on Luo He's shoulders, and then used very light force to free herself from his arms.
She pulled up the messy hair beside her ears, her eyes were charming, and she said softly:
"I'm really happy that you are safe and sound..."
"but."
She changed the topic and her tone was slightly tougher, with a hint of fear:
"When you go back, you must tell everything clearly about what you have experienced and what you said..."
Luo He still remembered that things related to the God of Death should not be disclosed to the outside world, otherwise it would bring disaster.
But the story of meeting Director Li and obtaining the 'psionic core' from him is enough to talk about for a long time.
"certainly."
Luo He looked around and said:
"It's not convenient to talk here... Let's find a place to stay first."
Crowds gathered around.
Everyone was thankful for Yu Luo He's safe return, marveled at the relationship between the two, and marveled at the beautiful emotion of reunion after the disaster.
Many members at the scene knew for the first time that Master Li Wanqing and Luo He were so close, and they couldn't help but be amazed.
Master Li is young, but his appearance, knowledge, and background are all outstanding.
With her current strength ranking among the top three in Donghuang, it can be foreseen that she will become a leader in the trainer world of Donghuang in the future.
And Luo He is an unparalleled rising star in the Donghuang Alliance today.
These two people are in love with each other and can be called a "perfect match".
There were many people present who showed happy smiles.
Luo He decided to go back to the foot of Taihang Mountain to rest, review what happened during the missing day, organize and report to the General Administration.
Li Wanqing calmed down, showed a capable demeanor, dispatched the on-site personnel, and left with Luo He immediately.
Before leaving, Yu Dajiang found Luo He and expressed his condolences and thanks.
He said that because of Luo He's friendship for overcoming all difficulties for the village and going into danger, he would teach the heroic dog everything he had!
After Xiu evolves, he does need to consolidate and improve through professional training. Moreover, Xiu has also absorbed the "qi of death", and with the guidance of a master, he can be prepared for any danger.
Luo He and Yu Dajiang met up to fish together and find time to train.
Immediately, he got on the Qingfeng Luan and drove to the foot of Taihang Mountain.
Halfway through, Qing Fengluan interrupted:
"Eh..." (When you disappeared, she was always worried about you and didn't sleep for thirty hours in a row.)
It is normal for a master of the sixth level space to stay up all night continuously. The key is that Li Wanqing tried every means during this period of time, traveled through mountains and rivers, and was exhausted both physically and mentally. It is obvious that she was exhausted.
Luo He turned his head and looked at the girl with a high ponytail whose eyes were slightly red, and heard her whisper:
"Just come back."
Luo He felt the warmth of being cared about and felt incredibly calm.
"Do you still remember what I said to you on the top of the mountain the day before the rainstorm?" Luo He said.
Li Wanqing turned her head and looked back, as if she could see the starry sky through her eyes.
"Of course I remember."
"So your answer..."
What Luo He responded to was an embrace above the sea of clouds and the sunset.
"Anyway, don't ever think of leaving me again." Li Wanqing said softly.
"That won't work." Luo He looked at the fiery sunset and said, "Men belong to the stars and the sea."
Li Wanqing gently leaned her head on his shoulder and murmured:
"Then I will pick off the stars and fill up the sea."
"You are so domineering."
"You like me to be gentler?"
"I like you, let's get closer."
"so?"
"A little closer..."
Dusk shrouded like a huge but gentle curtain, and the hot sunset lighted up the golden glow in the sky.
Under the reflection of the setting sun, the blue phoenix cuts a graceful arc through the sea of clouds, with the two silhouettes leaning against each other, blurring the boundaries.
*
At the foot of the mountain, inside the house.
Li Wanqing looked at Luo He.
This was the first time Luo He saw her timid deer-like eyes, and he nodded deeply.
Receiving Luo He's encouraging eyes, Li Wanqing took a deep breath.
Open the letter.
【Wanqing:
When you see this letter, it means that dad's work of studying the spiritual world has failed and he can no longer come back to accompany you.
I am not a competent father. I was busy with work when you were very young and neglected to care about you and your mother.
Because work requires confidentiality, I heard you cry and say that when your classmates said you didn't have a father, your father was always ashamed.
But please believe that daddy always loves you.
Always, always love you.
I wish you happiness, my daughter...Li Wanqing.
Li Yangqing, in the spiritual world.]
Luo He looked at the girl's back and said softly:
"How are you?"
Li Wanqing wiped away the tears on her cheeks with the back of her hand, put away the letter, turned around and looked at Luo He.
"I am fine."
She showed a smile as bright as the blazing sun, confident and beautiful, and her eyes twinkled:
"I just set a new goal."
"What goal?"
"Champion of the entire Donghuang Master League!"
Li Wanqing raised her head proudly, and then whispered shyly:
"Is this goal too big?"
"What's this?" Luo He said: "My goal is to level up one level a month, and I've already completed almost half of it."
Li Wanqing smiled and was suddenly startled, realizing that Luo He was not joking:
"You...have reached the fifth level of space?"
"That's right, I'm already at level five without even using the Void Spirit Grass."
Luo He shook his head repeatedly and said: "The upgrade is so fast, I'm starting to worry about whether there will be any hidden dangers!"
Li Wanqing rolled her eyes, then put her chin on her hand and said in a deep voice:
"You won't be able to catch up with this year's Master League, but depending on your progress... you may be able to sign up for next year."
The National Masters League has a more understandable name, [National Competition].
This league corresponds to the World Masters League, which is the difference between the [National Series] and the [World Series].
Only master trainers are eligible to sign up for these two major events, which is enough to imagine the difficulty and gold content of the events.
"According to my progress, I can directly participate in the World Series next year." Luo He said half-jokingly.
Li Wanqing snorted softly and said:
"Okay, what else did you see in the spirit world? Please report it in detail and record it."
Luo He observed her expression and said, "Are you...really okay?"
"Something's wrong." Li Wanqing said, "It needs to be cooked by someone's own hands to make it better."
Luo He smiled and said: "Okay, let's have dinner first and report later!"
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door.
Luo He opened the door and took a look, and said in surprise:
"Mr. Laukin?!"
Outside the door, stood a dusty old man in a suit, nodding expressionlessly.
Luo He invited Lao Jin to sit on the sofa in the house, made him a pot of tea, and listened to him slowly say:
"I heard that something happened to you, so I rushed here. I heard the news that you are safe and sound. I feel more relieved."
Luo He was greatly moved and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lao Jin. If you don't mind, would you like to stay for a quick meal?"
"No, I still have official duties..." Lao Jin was about to get up.
Luo He forced Lao Jin, who had stood up, to press down on the sofa and said:
"There is an old saying in Donghuang, it's called, come and come!"
Lao Jin was slightly startled and looked at Luo He up and down. He felt a little surprised when he realized that he had broken through to the fifth level of space power.
During this dazed moment, Luo He had already gotten into the kitchen, where the sound of pots and pans, fires and cooking could be heard.
Lao Jin pondered for a long time and thought to himself:
"That's right, you're already here, let's just have some home-cooked food today."
There is a dazzling array of dishes and the tempting aroma fills your nostrils.
Lao Jin sat at the dining table, dumbfounded and unable to take down his chopsticks.
"Master Lao Jin, do you have any questions?" Li Wanqing was very observant. She sat next to Luo He and asked softly.
Lao Jin: "Didn't you say... have some home-cooked food?"
"yes."
Luo He pointed to the boiled cabbage: "This is cabbage."
Then he pointed at Wensi Tofu: "This is tofu."
"Isn't it homely?" Luo He looked at Li Wanqing.
"Very homely." Li Wanqing nodded.
“It’s just home-cooked!”
Luo He waved his hand:
"Mr. Lawkin, please!"
Lao Jin was stunned for a moment, his Adam's apple rolling up and down, and said: "Then I'm not welcome..."
He took a spoonful of Wensi tofu soup and put it into his mouth.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a breeze blowing in my face.
Lao Jin's eyes widened in disbelief, and even the bags under his eyes seemed to have been relieved.
"tasty."
Lao Jin praised it without hesitation: "It is the best tofu soup I have ever tasted."
"Try other dishes." Luo He said cheerfully: "My craftsmanship will not disappoint you."
Lao Jin tasted other dishes one after another, his expression changing from tired to surprised.
He had heard of Luo He's title of "Heir of the Kitchen God" many times. It was said that Luo He's cooking skills could win the favor of the patron saint.
When I tasted it today, it really lived up to its reputation.
Lao Jin devoted himself wholeheartedly to cooking, and suddenly a trace of regret flashed through his heart.
I have missed so many dinners at Luo He before... What a pity!
Only when tasting delicious food will the man in the suit have a rare smile on his face.
After having had enough wine and food, Lao Jin returned to the tired look of a social animal and said slowly:
"I have to rush back to the imperial capital to deal with the accumulated official business."
Luo He nodded in understanding.
"I am grateful for your invitation today." Lao Jin said politely: "Next time, I will come back with a banquet."
Luo He smiled and said: "You are too polite... Let's have dinner together again if we have a chance."
Lao Jin nodded slightly and reminded:
"You should report the situation to Director Hu as soon as possible... He is also very worried about you."
"I understand." Luo He said, "I will go to the imperial capital tomorrow and explain it clearly to him in person."
This trip to the imperial capital, in addition to reporting what happened in the spiritual world, also has an important mission——
Give the [Psychic Core] entrusted by Director Li to the Scientific Research Bureau.
According to him, this invention has a certain role in promoting the development of mechanical life forms.
It is very likely that it can be applied to the pet beasts currently being developed by the Mechanical Bureau.
Sister Xiaolin once mentioned to me that the Machinery Bureau has a research and development plan code-named "Overlord" and has reserved a mechanical pet beast for me.
Luo He secretly thought...Now that the fifth pet slot has been opened, it's time to meet the mechanical pet.
The next day.
Luo He and Li Wanqing left Taihang Mountain together and returned to the imperial capital.
Summarize the itinerary.
Although there were accidents along the way, it was still very fruitful.
Xiu evolved into a heroic dog, and while his strength skyrocketed, he was able to keep up with the team's progress, and even obtained the 'Death Breath', a plug-in with a very high upper limit.
Luo He was thinking that the aura of death could be applied to the tactical field and develop a new tactic, [Granting Death Sword Aura]!
In the spirit world, I invited the three-headed dog of hell and the god of death to have a few meals. I don’t know if there will be contact in the future...
Luo He secretly prayed that it was best to say goodbye. The spirit world copy was still too difficult for him now!
[Death's Knife] This tableware is shrouded in various mysteries, and Luo He is still unable to fully control this item.
But I do lack Western kitchen utensils, and this table knife can indeed make up for the gap in my kitchen utensils.
The purpose of the psychic core and the true form of the mechanical pet beast... we have to wait until we go to the headquarters and meet Sister Xiaolin to find out.
“I haven’t gone to the [Qingqiu Country] yet.”
Luo He arranged the next trip and thought to himself:
"I don't know if this place is dangerous or not... I'd better ask Senior Bai Ze to find out when I have time."
Think of this.
Luo He asked Li Wanqing to return to Baizezun.
"I went to find Bai Ze." Li Wanqing said softly, "He didn't see me, and he didn't promise to save you. He just said that you would be back soon. It was just as he said..."
Luo He secretly thought...Other patron saints may not understand the spiritual world, but Bai Ze definitely knows it.
After all, in myths and legends, Bai Ze has the ability to travel between the Yin and Yang realms.
As his strength increased, Luo He realized more and more that totem level and patron saint were far from the upper limit of this world.
What I have to do is to continuously cultivate my own pet beasts and... improve my cooking skills!
Luo He looks up to the sky.
There are still three legendary kitchen utensils left.
White Tiger and Suzaku must be one of the seven holy beasts. I don’t know who the remaining holy beast is...
Imperial City, ninth game.
Seeing that Luo He was safe and sound, Hu Tu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pretended to be calm and praised him a few words, and then asked Luo He to bring the report.
Luo He handed the report to the director in person. Hu Tu glanced at it briefly, and his eyes widened immediately.
"Did you meet Director Li in the spirit world?" Hu Tu asked in surprise.
Luo He nodded and said: "Because of various reasons, he couldn't come back like me. He just gave me a few tokens and asked me to hand them over to the Scientific Research Bureau."
"Then how did you come back?"
"I invited Cerberus to eat, and he sent me back." Luo He said half-truthfully.
The God of Death only said not to mention him, but not the three-headed dog.
This explanation was reasonable. Director Hu nodded thoughtfully and said:
"Okay, you go to the Scientific Research Bureau, I will say hello there..."
Leave the office.
Luo He dialed Lin Xiaolin's contact.
"Hey, Sister Xiaolin."
"Luo He?" Lin Xiaolin's surprised voice came from the phone, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Luo He said: "It's a blessing in disguise. The space has broken through to level five."
Lin Xiaolin was stunned: "Good guy, your progress is quite fast."
"It's okay." Luo He said modestly: "I just want to ask, what type is the mechanical pet beast we talked about before?"
"I was just looking for you."
Lin Xiaolin laughed and said:
"In this way, I will take you to the scene and you will know!"
