A Bug’s Desire To Survive - Chapter 99
Yuan Chu was invited to come to Wei He’s rented house near the hospital to discuss opening a store.
In order to buy back the old house, Wei He must earn seven million in just over a year. It is not difficult for cultivators to make money, even those ordinary cultivators who have been eliminated by the academy are scarce talents that mortals are vying to snatch. But it is not so easy to make a lot of money in a short period of time.
“I plan to make a batch of magic talismans to test the water first.” Wei He said, “Mainly focus on security protection, dynamic communication, and customized special effects.”
Needless to say, safety protection, such as shield, avoid fire (water), relieve pain, refresh the mind, sleep, etc. Dynamic communication is mainly used for private communication. Couples or friends transmit feelings and information through various virtual dynamic images.
Wei He is most optimistic about customized special effects. The virtual special effects constructed by magic methods are more natural and realistic than those produced by computers. For commercials, MVs, film and television dramas, etc., as long as the corresponding special effects are customized, it can be done in one step.
“Do it according to your idea.” Yuan Chu expressed his support.
Although most cultivators have learned the basics of making magic talismans, their levels are not uniform, and some magic talismans are not as effective as mortals’ Sanmao special effects. But I had seen the floating amulet made by Wei He in the hospital at first. The imitation of the wings is both real and gorgeous, and it is very ornamental. It must be very marketable.
“The materials are prepared by me, and the finished product is paid to you 4 and 6. What do you think?” Wei He asked.
“I’ll do 2.” Yuan Chu had no interest in making money, and only hoped that he would establish contact with himself as soon as possible.
However, Wei He didn’t like to take advantage of it, so he drafted a contract of forty-six shares.
The original didn’t say much, just picked up the pen and signed.
The two submitted information on the same day, opened an online store, and listed more than a dozen kinds of magic charms.
“Do you recommend taking a few videos?” Wei He picked out a few magic charms, “Photos and videos can help buyers understand the effects of magic symbols more intuitively.”
Yuan Chu nodded, indicating that there was no problem.
The two stepped into the night, came to the community garden, and began to shoot a video of trying out the magic charm.
“This is a colorful light talisman.” Wei He took out a magic talisman and asked, “What color do you like?”
“White, blue, red, purple…” Yuan Chu reported six or seven colors in a row.
Wei He: “…then it’s white.”
The magic talisman opened, and a beam of white light went from bottom to top, surrounding the whole body, and then turned into layers of halos, shrouding the original, shining in the night. The footsteps moved slightly and turned around in the same place, and the little stars drifted along with them, like fireflies.
Wei He stared at the glowing girl through the camera.
The effect lasted for three minutes and faded all around.
“Not bad.” Wei He calmed down, lowered his head, and handed her another talisman: “Go ahead, beauty contact talisman.”
Yuan Chu looked at the talisman in his hand, said nothing, and threw the talisman away.
All of a sudden, a tree bloomed behind him, and the fullness of spring came to me. The girl stood under the flower tree, not knowing whether it was spring sultry or people provoking spring.
Wei He was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he had given the wrong talisman just now, his ears were slightly red, but his expression was still calm: “Sorry, this is a tree with flowers and a talisman.”
“It’s okay, I know.” Yuan Chu raised his eyebrows indifferently, and the smile in his eyes seemed to be shining with stars.
“…Continue.” Wei He looked away: what kind of eyes were those? I want to hook him up again!
Originally, she took the talisman and tried it out with due diligence. Every time she tried one, Wei He felt that she had “bad intentions”.
Even a green-faced and fangs talisman was seen by him to be affectionate. Those bloodshot eyes that were born of love and hatred, that hideous expression that couldn’t ask for anything, that strong ghostly aura that would never change until death, all the emotions were overflowing!
Wei He peeked at her in a restrained and complicated way, feeling a little guilty for not being able to respond to her, so he could only try his best to photograph her beautifully.
Yuan Chu, who was concentrating on his work, had no idea what he was thinking about, but just thought his expression was a little strange.
The two spent more than an hour trying out all the dozens of magic talismans.
Originally, I looked at the shooting effect, which is very good, and it can evoke the ** that others want to buy.
Wei He squinted at the beginning of the video, leaning on his side to watch the video, and stood upright reservedly, in case she took the opportunity to have a physical conflict with him, but he never thought about standing up a little.
“You did a great job.” Yuan Chu raised his head and gave him a like.
Wei He: Flattery is useless, I won’t like you, give it up!
“It’s alright.” He replied coldly, but the corner of his mouth had his own thoughts and secretly raised.
“Starting tomorrow, shall we set aside 3 hours every night to make magic charms?”
“Well.” Wei He paused, “It’s too troublesome for you to run back and forth like this, do you want to move in and live with me?”
After saying this, he immediately regretted it: didn’t this give her a chance to sink into the mud? She would certainly agree without hesitation.
Yuan Chu: “Okay.”
Sure enough, he agreed without hesitation.
The words have been spoken, and there is no way to go back. Wei He can only tell himself that in the future, except for necessary communication, he must keep a distance from her!
The next day, Wei He took the initiative to go to the school to help her with her luggage, and settled the cohabitation in a lunch break.
Wei He, who went to school with Yuan Chu: “…” What’s wrong? ? ?
The online store opened, and thanks to discounts and video promotions, all the new charms on the shelves were sold out, and several buyers placed orders.
Wei He and Yuan Chu went to school during the day and made talismans at night, gradually forming a tacit understanding.
It’s just that the cultivation of the two of them is not very smooth. ,
Wei He has never been able to refine the Xuan Xiao Umbrella, and the original cultivation base has not advanced an inch.
“Wei He, what’s the matter with you recently?” Sang Rong pretended to be concerned and said, “I’ve already refined the Cang Yue Sword into a magic weapon of life, how about you? It’s been almost half a month, is there any progress? Don’t talk about it. Falling in love delays cultivation.”
Wei He said lightly, “No, no.”
“I heard that you also opened an online store?” Sang Rong didn’t care about his indifferent attitude at all, and asked casually, “How is the profit? Do you want me to help you promote it?”
He stole Wei He’s creativity, and his business became prosperous. Later, he refined the mid-grade magic weapon, the Cang Yue Sword, and became a popular figure among the cultivation students. On the other hand, Wei He’s progress was slow and unknown. The high-spirited genius in my memory is now down and down, how can I not let him feel relieved?
“Small business, it’s the same if it’s announced or not.” Wei He resisted the rejection in his heart and took a quick step, “Stop talking, I’m going to practice.”
“You go, don’t forget, Ji Kao Xiaobi will be in three days, you have to refine your magic weapon as soon as possible.” Sang Rong reminded kindly.
Wei He frowned slightly and walked into the training room without stopping.
He glanced at the corner habitually, and sure enough, he saw Yuan Chu who was meditating.
She is still in the middle stage of qi refining, and she practices hard every day. Not only does her cultivation make no progress, but there is a hint of regression.
If she hasn’t broken through the late stage of qi refining before the quarterly exam, she is likely to be assigned to the second qi refining class.
Wei He subconsciously took a few steps towards her, she immediately noticed it, woke up from the meditation, and looked at him with a pair of smiling eyes: “Are you here?”
Wei He paused, then walked over to her and sat down with his legs crossed, and asked, “Are you sure about the quarterly test in three days?”
The original was silent for a while, and then I remembered that there was still a season test. During this period of time, the law’s rejection of her became stronger and stronger, and her body became weaker and weaker. She had to double her cultivation to barely maintain her current cultivation.
“Your face doesn’t look very good, do you want to go see a medical teacher?” There was a trace of worry in Wei He’s eyes.
“No, I’m fine.” The damage caused by the law cannot be detected by ordinary monks.
Yuan Chu secretly sighed: Why is the young man in front of him still unwilling to establish contact with her?
“Tell me if you have any trouble, we are… partners anyway.”
Yuan Chu smiled: “Okay, thank you.”
Wei He turned his head away with a cold expression on his face.
“By the way, has your destiny magic weapon been successfully refined?” Yuan Chu asked.
Wei He was silent for a while, then replied, “No.”
According to the normal trajectory, Wei He bound the Cang Yue Sword and broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage before the season test. But now, not only has he failed to refine the magic weapon of his life, but his cultivation has also stayed in the late stage of qi refining.
In the next quarterly test, Sang Rong will replace him and win the first place in the small competition. The first prize won the Qi Gathering Pill, and he also missed him, and Sang Rong will use this Qi Gathering Pill to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop.
Originally thought about it, how can I give him some hints so that he can refine the magic weapon of his life smoothly without attracting the attention of Tiandao?
She moved her fingers slightly, and a small snake wrapped around her fingers like a living thing.
Wei He’s eyes were unconsciously attracted, and they lingered for a long time.
“Wei He.” Yuan Chu suddenly said.
Wei He quickly retracted his gaze: “Huh?”
“Come with me to catch fish tonight?”
“?”
Wei He refused in his heart. In the middle of the night, alone men and widows went to catch fish. Isn’t this deliberately creating “rape-love”?
However, at night, Wei He followed Yuan Chu into the woods.
When I came to a waterfall, my ears were filled with the rumbling sound of running water, and the silver moonlight reflected on the water, with a faint hoarfrost.
“Wait for me for a while.” Wei He snapped off a few branches and planned to shoot a few fish.
Yuan Chu stopped aloud: “It’s boring to catch fish like this.”
“Then what do you think…” Wei He turned back, but saw a figure passing by in front of him, jumping up, throwing into the water, splashing a large amount of water.
“!!!” What is this operation? !
Wei He stood on the bank and shouted at the fast-flowing river: “Yuan Chu, what are you doing?”
There was no movement on the river, as if no one had jumped down just now.
“Original?” He called out, but still didn’t respond.
His face was a little dark, and he didn’t care about other things. He jumped into the river and looked for the original trace.
As a cultivator, even if his cultivation base is not high, he will not drown easily. What he is worried about is whether Yuan Chu will encounter any monsters.
At the bottom of the dimly lit river, the air was terrifyingly cold, and fish and shrimps swam from time to time, but they didn’t feel the aura of monsters.
While Wei He was in doubt, there was a sudden fluctuation of mana on the right side.
Before he could react, the second attack arrived.
Wei He took out the Xuanxiao umbrella and placed it in front of him, blocking the attack.
At the same time, he also saw clearly that the person who attacked him was the original disappearance.
Yuan Chu smiled and put on a sparring gesture to him.
Wei He felt slightly relieved, and then got a little angry. He wanted to refuse to discuss with her, but she pressed forward every step of the way. Although the move was simple, it made him unable to escape.
Wei He was surprised, restrained his mind, and began to deal with it seriously.
The two went back and forth under the water, fighting indissoluble.
The original cultivation base was lower than Wei He, and his moves and movements seemed weak and powerless, but every time he cleverly avoided the key points and blocked Wei He’s retreat.
Wei He kept improving her mana, speeding up the attack, changing the route of the attack, trying to force Yuan Chu out of the water, but she was slippery like a loach, and she couldn’t catch it no matter how hard she was.
Wei He’s spiritual root is fire attribute, and the underwater environment greatly limits his performance. But in the beginning, it was only in the middle stage of qi refining, how could it be possible that his cultivation in the late stage of qi refining would be at a disadvantage?
Wei He narrowed his eyes, concentrated his energy, and a fire dragon broke through the water and went straight to the original.
At the beginning, the hands were surrounded, and the water flow swirled, forming a vortex, including the fire dragon. As soon as it was retracted and released, the fire dragon counterattacked along the original route.
Wei He was caught off guard and was hit by his own spell. His throat was so sweet that he almost vomited blood.
The original showed no mercy, and the next wave of attacks followed.
Wei He took defense as his attack, retreating step by step, but he was greeted by a more violent attack.
The more he fought, the more frightened he felt, as if he was not trying to learn from him at first, but wanted his life!
Doesn’t she like herself? What’s the situation now?
Wei He didn’t want to believe it, but the facts were in front of her eyes. Her attack almost left no way out, and her moves were fatal.
After more than a dozen rounds, Wei He was already scarred, but he had no intention of stopping at first.
Confusion and anger flashed in Wei He’s eyes, the veins on the back of the hand holding the Xuanxiao umbrella were exposed, his body shot rapidly, his mana increased sharply, facing the original attack, he roared in his heart: Open!
With a swoosh, the Xuanxiao umbrella opened wide, the black flame burst open, water splashed all over, and the fierce shock wave shot the original with the steaming water mist.
The original complexion remained unchanged, and the water shield was condensed. With a bang, the water shield shattered, and she resisted a blow.
Wei He was operating the Xuanxiao umbrella, and the whole person was almost integrated with it, turning into a mysterious fire, breaking the water waves, and heading straight for the original with a terrifying momentum.
There was a fire of anger burning in his eyes, and he didn’t understand why Yuan Chu did this to him. The trust that the two had finally built up collapsed at this moment.
boom!
The original slender body was knocked out of the water by the huge force, like a broken kite, it fell from the air and fell heavily to the ground.
Her eyes were half-closed, her face was pressed against the wet soil, she gasped slightly, and scarlet blood flowed out.
Wei He carried the umbrella and walked to Yuan Chu step by step, looking down at her with a cold expression on his face.
He moved his lips and was about to question, but he heard her ask weakly: “You… have you succeeded…”
He was stunned: “What?”
She slightly raised the corners of her lips: “Xuanxiao Umbrella… Has it been successfully tamed?”
Wei He’s brain suddenly roared, and he couldn’t think for a long time.
What’s the meaning?
Wei He subconsciously tried to control the Xuanxiao Umbrella, but the result turned out to be very smooth, there was still a hint of traction, and there was no previous delay.
So, she deliberately provoked him just now and forced him to fight her, in order to help him tame the Xuanxiao umbrella?
Is she crazy? ! What if he killed her by mistake?
Wei He looked at her in disbelief, and the anger in his heart disappeared instantly, replaced by shock, guilt, distress, and indescribable throbbing.
“Hey, it seems to be successful, cough…” Yuan Chu coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, but the expression on his face was very happy.
Wei He’s heart tightened, he quickly put away the Xuanxiao umbrella, squatted down, carefully lifted her up, grabbed her wrist, and explored her injuries.
“Are you dying!” Feeling the chaotic aura in Yuan Chu’s body, Wei He’s fingers trembled slightly, and a suppressed growl came out of his throat.
“Sorry…” She didn’t have much time, so she had to gamble.
Originally pressed against Wei He’s heart, her brows and eyes stretched, as if she could not feel the pain, but Wei He knew how badly she was hurt. His last blow was almost exhausting, and she endured it abruptly.
“Idiot! There is a way to refine the magic weapon of life, you don’t need to use your life to exchange it!” Wei He’s tone was fierce, but the action of feeding her the basic healing pill was very gentle, “Don’t do this kind of stupid thing again in the future!”
Yuan Chu slowly closed his eyes: “Wei He…”
“what?”
“I’m afraid I can’t promise you…”
Wei He was stunned for a moment. After realizing what she meant by her words, he couldn’t help but get angry and said angrily, “You…”
The voice stopped, because the person in his arms was silent, lying quietly in his arms, as if dead.
Wei He’s heart throbbed, and he quickly checked her breath, which was almost undetectable.
He picked her up and rushed towards the school like an arrow from a string.
In the beginning, you won, as long as you live well, I will accept your liking!
With the thoughts together, a few invisible ties suddenly appeared between the two, entangled, and then merged into one.
The originally weak heartbeat suddenly became stronger…
I don’t know how long it took, at first I felt like I had a good night’s sleep, when I woke up, the fatigue was gone, and the whole person was extremely relaxed.
Sunlight poured in from the window, brightening the room. The gentle breeze, the refreshing fragrance of flowers, the melodious birdsong…the real world is presented one by one.
Yuan Chu soon realized that she had established a connection with the Child of Luck! The power of law no longer excludes her, and she is officially integrated into this world.
“How do you feel?” Wei He’s voice with implied joy came from the side.
Yuan Chu turned his head and smiled, “It’s good.”
“What’s good?” Wei He said with a cold face, “Do you know that your spiritual roots were almost destroyed!”
Thinking of the results of the doctor’s examination, he was still afraid for a while. What does it mean to be destroyed? It means that there is no possibility of cultivation in this life!
“Isn’t it okay?” Yuan Chu always had a smile on his face. After establishing the connection, she is happy to see everything.
“You’re still laughing!” Wei He accused, “How stupid you are, don’t you have any points in your heart? How could your brain as big as a grain of rice think of helping me tame Xuanxiao Umbrella with such a stupid method? It’s so stupid. !”
This incident seems to have activated someone’s poisonous tongue attribute.
Yuan Chu explained seriously: “You and Xuanxiao Umbrella are both fire attributes, and you can force your potential in the water. Only in unfavorable circumstances can you both have the same mind and fight against the enemy.”
“Against the enemy? Who is the enemy? You!” A person who likes himself to death has the courage to regard himself as his enemy!
She didn’t speak anymore, anyway, the goal has been achieved, and she can accept his complaints without fear.
Wei He was even more angry when he saw her expression of “I did the right thing, I will try harder next time”.
He put a piece of food heavily in front of her, and said in a vicious voice, “Eat it all up!”
Yuan Chu smiled and said, “Okay~”
Wei He: In the face of a love brain who likes him very much, he has nothing to do.
The author has something to say: Wei He: Forget it, I allow you to like me. Seriously, do you want to scare me to death so that I can inherit my huge debt?
Yuan Chu: Are you thinking too much?
