Chapter 339 Return to the Mother World
Chapter 339 Return to the Mother World
In 2049, in a courtyard in Beijing.
Zhao Dongchuan sat on the ground, looked at the clouds in the sky, and then looked at the flowers and plants in the courtyard, with a lot of thoughts in his mind...
Qin Jingru passed away twenty years ago...those of his generation in the courtyard are no longer around, and even those who were much younger than him have passed away before him.
Fortunately, my daughter Xinxin is still alive...but now she has become an old woman with white hair.
Birth, aging, illness and death are the inevitable path of life...
At this time, he was already very old... "Introduction to Qi Refining" could only delay his aging, but could not keep him young forever. Living to a hundred years old was almost enough.
Although he had plenty of energy and was in good spirits, his vitality was already declining...
Now the two of them live together in this courtyard, taken care of by several caregivers.
Their children and grandchildren would come to visit them from time to time, but most of the time, they just sat there to bask in the sun and enjoy the rest of their lives.
Zhao Dongchuan sat quietly, he knew that the time was coming...
He took a last look at his daughter Xinxin who was basking in the sun not far away and smiled.
He spent a plain but fulfilling life in this world. Although it was not very exciting, he was very satisfied...
He has arranged everything that can be arranged, but as for the more distant future, he has no control over it.
The so-called kindness of a gentleman will be cut off in three generations!
I hope the younger generations can work harder!
Zhao Dongchuan smiled and shook his head, then he crossed his legs, placed his hands naturally on his legs, and let his mind go. His body and mind gradually calmed down...
……
"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained the power of the origin of this world and lit up the second world star... The system is calculating the completion value..."
"Ding, calculation completed, congratulations to the host, this world tour is rated B... Get a Black Diamond Treasure Chest Exchange Card (Note: can be used directly, or can be used in conjunction with the host's current lottery opportunity!)"
Zhao Dongchuan's soul was rippling in the darkness... A crisp system prompt sounded, and at the same time, the entire sea of consciousness was shining brightly again...
……
What is different from the last time in "Ordinary World" is that this time, there is not only the light generated by the system in the sea of consciousness, but also the light generated by the Chaos Pearl.
The Chaos Orb also seemed to be absorbing the original power of this world and began to grow rapidly.
After so many years of growth, what was originally a small basketball court-sized space has become a space with a radius of ten kilometers...
Although the space has become much larger, Zhao Dongchuan has not been able to enter, as if he was isolated.
But after the world tour of "Love in the Courtyard" ended, things seemed to have changed.
The space inside the Chaos Pearl was originally just a simple space, with no distinction between up and down, no land, no mountains, rivers, or lakes, and even no air.
But with the influx of a strange energy, all this changed.
It began to gradually differentiate into upper and lower parts, creating the distinction between heaven and earth, but all of this changed in a hazy state, and Zhao Dongchuan couldn't see clearly.
"Evolution started again?"
Zhao Dongchuan looked at the changes in his sea of consciousness, thoughtful.
This time, perhaps because of the Chaos Pearl, or perhaps because his body was strong enough the second time, Zhao Dongchuan did not fall into darkness for a long time...
I just felt dazed for a moment, as if I had a dream, and then my consciousness returned to my body.
"Ding!!! The host's soul has returned to its body..."
"Ding!! In order to prevent the host from experiencing emotional confusion, the host's memories and emotions during the world journey have been blurred and stored deep in the soul... The host can actively recall and present..."
"Ding!!! The system has detected that the world's origin power in the host's body has met the system upgrade conditions. The system has begun to optimize and upgrade... 1%..."
As the system prompts came one after another, Zhao Dongchuan slowly opened his eyes...
What caught my eye was a wisp of white smoke rising slowly from an antique incense burner.
This is the agarwood that Zhao Dongchuan bought specially before traveling through time. It can help calm the mind.
He slowly got up from the bed and stretched.
Then he grabbed his phone from the bedside table and checked the time.
Well, not bad, Zhao Dongchuan nodded.
This time, only a few hours have passed. It is now past four in the morning... In a few hours, it will be dawn...
Since he was already awake, Zhao Dongchuan simply decided not to sleep anymore. Instead, he got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face, changed his clothes, put on a mask, and left the antique shop.
Walking in the cold wind of the early morning, his thoughts slowly peeled away from the emotions of the previous world.
Although the system has blurred his emotions and memories over the years, it is impossible to completely remove them, and there will always be some traces.
"call!!!"
Zhao Dongchuan blew out a breath with his hands, and saw a bun shop not far ahead, and his heart moved.
I'm a little hungry! Let's go buy some!
"Boss, it's early enough!"
"Haha, there's nothing I can do. It's business. What do you want to order?"
The boss was a slightly plump middle-aged man, and next to him was a middle-aged woman wearing a hat, looking at him with a smile.
"Give me five meat buns, two fried dough sticks, and a cup of soy milk!"
"okay……"
With the proprietress's skilled operation, it was quickly packed and handed to Zhao Dongchuan.
"Alipay has arrived, 23 yuan..."
Zhao Dongchuan took out his mobile phone, scanned the code to pay, then opened the bag and took a bite of the bun.
He ate while walking. It was already six o'clock and many electric vehicles had appeared on the road, busying themselves to go to work.
They are all hard-working workers...
Zhao Dongchuan ate all the steamed buns and fried dough sticks, and walked slowly with soy milk in one hand.
…………
"Dongchuan, please move these rice..."
Zhao Qingping, wearing a blue work suit, was unloading goods from the van while directing Zhao Dongchuan to work.
"Brother, give me a popsicle!"
Zhao Tongtong took a popsicle from the freezer and handed it over.
"Good, now you know how to feel sorry for your brother!"
"No way, I've always felt sorry for you!"
Zhao Tongtong rolled her eyes at Zhao Dongchuan.
"Okay, you two brothers, stop getting in the way at the door... you're blocking the guests..."
Mother Wei Xiaojiao said dissatisfiedly when she saw them chatting at the door.
The two looked at each other, shut up, and went to work.
At night, in a certain neighborhood, Zhao Dongchuan was lying on the sofa watching TV, while Zhao Qingping and Wei Xiaojiao were cooking in the kitchen...
Zhao Tongtong hid in the house, and no one knew what she was doing...
"time to eat!"
Wei Xiaojiao shouted.
Then everyone took their seats.
"Dongchuan, how is your antique shop?"
Wei Xiaojiao picked up a big shrimp for Zhao Dongchuan and asked.
"It's OK. Selling souvenirs and decorations... This business requires accumulation..."
Zhao Dongchuan was afraid of scaring his family, so he didn't dare tell them that a piece of porcelain was sold for more than one million yuan a few days ago, and planned to keep it a secret for the time being.
"Well, there's no rush. I've heard people say that if you don't open a shop for three years, you can make a profit for three years after you open it..."
"Now the supermarket is back on track... we are not afraid!"
Zhao Qingping drank a glass of beer and ate a bite of food, and said with a smile.
