Chapter 110 [Meeting is destiny] (6400)

Chapter 6400 [Meeting is destiny] ()

No matter what, facing the mentally ill little girl in front of him, Chen Yan's attitude was much more polite.

There is no way, strength is everything.

Chen Yan actually doesn't believe in the saying "strength is everything", but he also feels that he has to acknowledge this truth in many cases.

Such as now.

Gu Xiaoniang, who was suppressed to the Dengtai Realm, could beat a hundred of her own in the Guiyuan Realm with one hand.

Then, this little girl in front of him, who was at the great perfection of the Soul Formation Stage and half a step away from becoming a Venerable—she could probably beat up a hundred Gu Xiaoniangs with one hand!
If we round it off, doesn't that mean this little girl can beat herself ten thousand times with one hand?
Thinking back to the time before, when this little girl almost killed herself with a slap...

Thinking of this, Mr. Chen's tone softened a bit. "Well, we've been chatting for so long, but I still haven't asked for your name, fellow Taoist?"

The little girl blinked and looked at Chen Yan: "You're welcome, just call me Que'er."

"Sparrow?"

The little girl shook her head and said, "I don't remember my name, but since I'm a half-demon skylark, I named myself Que'er."

This name is a bit hasty... Chen Yan thought to himself.

The little girl looked at Chen Yan's expression, and seemed to guess what he was thinking. She curled her lips and said, "Names are for others to call them. But I'm the only one here, so names are not important."

Chen Yan nodded: "That's not wrong. From now on, I will call you Fellow Daoist Que?"

The little girl frowned and thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "Not good."

"Ok?"

"It doesn't sound good."

The little girl said carelessly, "Originally, I just randomly gave myself this name because I was bored. No one calls me that anyway. But now that you mention it, I feel that this name doesn't sound good anymore. Wait a minute, let me think about it carefully. I need to come up with a better name!"

Chen Yan: "..."

This is even more sloppy!

The little girl didn't care. She waved her hand and said, "Okay, I'll tell you my name once I think of one. What about you? What's your name?"

"My name is Chen Yan." Chen Yan squatted down and wrote his name on the ground with his fingers.

The little girl nodded. "Your name is just average, not particularly nice. It's just okay."

Chen Yan took a breath - okay, you are a half-step sage, you have the final say.

Well, but this Half-Step Venerable is having a miserable time.

Chen Yan thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Meeting is fate. Since we have met, since this is our first meeting, I will treat you to a meal."

The little girl looked at Chen Yan in confusion: "Do you want to take me to a restaurant to eat and drink for free? I told you, this is very dangerous."

"Of course it's not free food and drink." Chen Yan sighed: "Have you forgotten that I can go out into the world."

The little girl perked up immediately: "Yeah! Well, but since you're treating me, don't treat me to a bad meal! I've had good food before. I don't eat pork chop buns and cold pizza every day!"

Later, the little girl told Chen Yan that she actually enjoyed eating good food occasionally.

For example, go to the back kitchen of some restaurants and steal some food.

As long as it is not too obvious, many restaurants have redundant food preparation in their kitchens, so occasionally there is a little less and it may not be noticed.

As long as it's not in public, just perform a magic trick in the restaurant where the dishes suddenly disappear.

As for her clothes, they looked like they were cobbled together and seemed to have been stolen. The little girl explained that she was the only one in the world, and there was no one else to look for, not even a living creature that could breathe.

"Who are you dressing so beautifully for?"

Chen Yan nodded: "Well, there's nothing wrong with that."

He looked at the little girl again and asked, "Where do you live?"

"I live everywhere. Sometimes I find a nice hotel and an empty room where I can shower and sleep. Sometimes I find a vacant house and stay there for a few days, just having to clean it up before the owner comes back. Sometimes I'm bored and don't feel like walking around, so I sleep on the rooftop or on the street. It doesn't matter."

Seeing the little girl's nonchalant look, Chen Yan nodded and waved, saying, "Let's go, I'll definitely treat you to a good time today."

·
A moment later, the two turned into birds and flew to the downstairs of the Peninsula Hotel where Chen Yan lived.

Looking at the empty hotel lobby, Chen Yan made a gesture of invitation: "Fellow Daoist, please come in. I will stay in this hotel."

The little girl nodded, still seeming to maintain her composure. "Well, the Peninsula Hotel is not bad. I've stayed here before, but the bed is too soft. It's not very comfortable if I sleep on it for too long."

Looking at the little girl who was deliberately controlling her posture, her eyes were actually full of anxiety - Chen Yan didn't point it out, he just smiled and said nothing.

More than an hour later, in Chen Yan's room in the hotel.

The dining table in the room was already filled with various dishes that Chen Yan ordered from the hotel restaurant.

A roast goose, a steamed tiger grouper, an Australian lobster, a fried crab, and a plate of premium seafood Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

These dishes were delivered by the hotel restaurant after Chen Yan returned to the outside world and called it from his room.

After the food was delivered to the room, Chen Yan returned to the mirror world and sat at the dining table with the little girl.

"These..." The little girl looked a little confused, staring at the steaming dishes on the table: "Are these all for me?"

"Well, don't worry, you're welcome." Chen Yan waved his hand proudly: "It doesn't matter if you can't eat it, just keep making more! I just want to have a good time!"
"No, that's not what I meant." The little girl shook her head.

"what?"

"I mean, this isn't enough to eat."

Chen Yan: ???
Next, Chen Yan watched helplessly as this crazy little girl finished eating a roast goose in two minutes.

He ate a grouper in two minutes.

Because the lobster was opened very well, it took the little girl less than a minute to stuff all the shrimp meat into her mouth.

As for the fried crab and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, it only took four minutes in total.

It took a total of nine minutes, less than ten minutes, and the little girl was already smacking her lips and looking at the empty plate on the table with regret.

From beginning to end, Chen Yan didn't even pick up his chopsticks!
The little girl looked at Chen Yan with curiosity and whispered, "I've never been to the outside world, so I don't know the rules of you people in the outside world...

Well, you people in the outside world, when you invite people to dinner, don't you always make sure the guests are full?"

"........."

Chen Yan was stunned for two seconds, then immediately shook his head and said, "How is that possible! Don't worry, there are still dishes to be prepared. The kitchen will always prepare them one by one."

"Well, I don't want that fish. I don't like things with bones. I don't want Buddha Jumps Over the Wall either. It's too soupy and not filling. The roast goose is good. I can have two more. And the shrimp are also very delicious..."

The little girl looked at Chen Yan with a smile.

Chen Yan looked at the little girl - so the Half-Step Venerables all have big appetites, right?
It seems right...

Gu Qingyi is also a big eater, and she eats snacks all day long at home.

He picked up the phone and ordered some dishes as the little girl asked, and asked the kitchen to prepare and send them as soon as possible.

Afraid that the little girl was not full, Chen Yan thought for a moment and added a roasted suckling pig!

Look at the little girl's short stature and her appetite which seems like a bottomless pit.

I really want to see if she can perform a "Three People and a Pig" trick for me in person!
·
It turns out that it is impossible to have three people and one pig.

Even a Half-Step Venerable couldn't do it.

The little girl ate a whole roast suckling pig in six full mouthfuls.

The second batch of dishes was served, and the little girl finished the whole plate again in less than fifteen minutes.

Chen Yan was calm at this moment.

Eat it!

Anyway, think about the balance in your card - can she really bankrupt you?

He looked at the little girl calmly and said, "Do you want me to ask the hotel to send another batch? I think you're not full."

"Yeah, I'm definitely not full." The little girl took a sip of iced Coke and sighed, "Sure enough, Coke should be drunk cold."

"Then order another one as it is? Well, how about two?" Chen Yan picked up the phone.

"...Forget it." The little girl showed a sly smile on her face, looked at Chen Yan and nodded, "I think you seem to be a really good person. I decided not to play tricks on you."

"Ok?"

"I'm actually not full." The little girl patted her belly and laughed, "If I really let go of eating, I can definitely eat you out of money. With what I've eaten tonight, even if you get another 100 servings, I still won't be full.

But, actually, for me, there is no such concept as "full".

Everything I eat stays in my stomach and can be digested slowly later.

I don’t actually need to eat every day. I just need to eat a lot at once, like today’s meal, which is enough to last me for many days, so thank you anyway.”

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment - are you sure you are Skylark, not Camel?

Then he shook his head: "I see, fellow Daoist actually has such magical powers, I am really ignorant."

As he spoke, he raised the phone in his hand and said, "However, since it can be stored, why don't I store a little more for you, fellow Taoist?"

"Really, no need. It's our first time meeting, so I don't want to eat too much." The little girl smiled shyly, "But you can have some dessert after the meal. Yes, I like mango pudding and ice cream."

"Five servings each, then?"

"it is good."

After making a call to ask the restaurant to send dessert, Chen Yan put down the phone and saw the little girl sitting on the sofa looking at him with a smile: "Okay, I've eaten your treat. Now you might as well tell me, what is it that you want me to do for you?" "Huh?" Chen Yan raised his eyebrows.

The little girl waved her hands. "I'm just trapped here and can't go out into the world, but I'm not stupid. I read a book every day when I'm bored—even though the words here are all backwards."

But you get used to it after watching it for a long time.

Besides, I also watch other things. I watch all the movies and TV shows here. Although I didn't understand the Cantonese spoken by the people here at first, I learned it after listening for a while.

Anyway, I'm not a fool. You and I met by chance, I injured you, and yet you still treated me to such an expensive meal.

There is no one in this world who is kind to others for no reason.

Well, there’s a saying, “It’s no use showing kindness…” “It’s not… it’s not what, it’s not frying eggs?”

Chen Yan sighed: "It's either a traitor or a thief."

"That's right, that's right, either a traitor or a thief." The little girl laughed and said, "Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"

"As for the specifics, there really isn't anything." Chen Yan said sincerely, "I'm not the kind of person who would immediately ask for something in return for a favor."

The little girl raised an eyebrow: "Really?"

"Really not." Chen Yan shook his head.

"Then, I will really eat your meal for free, and you don't have any requirements or conditions? Then after I finish eating, I will leave." The little girl looked at Chen Yan suspiciously.

Chen Yan nodded calmly: "I've already said that meeting a fellow Daoist is fate. Since we're destined to be together, we'll be friends from now on. Inviting you for a meal isn't a big deal. After this meal, if you want to leave, you can go. I won't say no."

Need help from her?

Chen Yan is not that stupid!
What's going on with this psychotic little girl?
She was trapped in the mirror world and couldn't escape! If she hadn't entered this place by herself, she would have been suffering from loneliness and solitude.

It’s so rare to meet someone like this, someone who can enter this world, talk to her, and give her someone to communicate with!

Let’s talk about it, who needs who more!

Chen Yan is not that narrow-minded. He would invite someone to dinner and then make a request or something - that would be too shallow.

You have to build a relationship first! Once you have a relationship and become friends...if your friend has problems later, would you be able to just stand by and do nothing? Would you be able to not lend a hand?
The little girl spent over 40,000 Hong Kong dollars on this meal, but Chen Yan didn't even blink, happily paying for it himself! He didn't even bother to add the room bill—if he did, Chu Keqing would have to foot the bill in the end.

Chen Yan will not give up the opportunity of becoming a Half-Step Venerable to others easily!
A Half-Step Venerable! In the domain realm, this is equivalent to the world's top expert except for the forty-two saints!

To put it simply, it ranks 43rd in the world!

Even if there are other masters in the domain who are stuck at the Great Perfection of the Soul - that is still "tied" for 43rd in the world!
Not only did Chen Yan treat her to a meal, he also asked the hotel to send someone out to buy a few sets of girls' clothes and then left the clothes in the room. He took the initiative to leave the room and went for a walk outside for more than an hour.

He cleared out his room and let the little girl take a nice bath and change into clean clothes in her own room in the mirror world.

Including food and clothes, the total cost is about 50,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Chen Yan thought about it...

This little girl hides in the mirror world and is not afraid of the curse of "Good Fortune is Hard to Give Up".

In the mirror world, even the heavenly thunder cannot catch up with her.

What’s more, it’s the debt collection from heaven?
However, Shancai's curse is two-way. We have to wait and see next month, when the heaven comes to settle the accounts. If he fails to catch up with the little girl, will he be punished?

Chen Yan guessed that liquidation was just like settling accounts.

The little girl was in debt and she paid for it herself.

If you can't find the debtor, then it's very likely that justice won't come after you either?
Anyway, you can try this first. If it works, you can worship this Half-Step Venerable in the future!
Of course, Chen Yan also left some room for himself. With an expense of 50,000, he would not spend any more money on this little girl within a month.

Spending fifty thousand dollars is just enough to catch a cold.

It depends on whether I will be cursed to pay for the little girl's expenses when the heavens settle the accounts next month.

We'll see how the situation develops then.

·
After sitting in the hotel lobby in the mirror world for an hour, Chen Yan went upstairs to his room, knocked on the door first, and waited for a few minutes before opening the door and going in.

When I walked in, the little girl was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV. TVB was broadcasting a Hong Kong drama.

The little girl took a bath and put on the new clothes that Chen Yan bought for her.

The face that was originally dirty and stained was also visible clearly - Chen Yan sighed in his heart.

She looks average.

This girl's appearance can't be said to be ugly. It's just that her nose is a little flat, the distance between her eyes is a little bit too far, and her forehead is a little high.

She is not ugly, but she is not really a pretty loli.

Just, it’s okay.

Chen Yan walked over and sat next to the little girl. He also picked up a bottle of water and took a couple of sips before slowly saying, "Daoyou, have you thought about the future?"

The little girl turned her head to look at him: "Huh?"

"I saw that you were living a rather hard life here before, but that was because you didn't have any friends to support you in the outside world. Now that I know you, I naturally want to help you out."

The little girl became interested: "You... said you wanted to help me? How?"

"Well, I can't say anything else, but food, clothing, shelter, etc. can always make you feel more comfortable." Chen Yan smiled confidently and said, "To be frank, I do have some wealth in the outside world.

Like today, I can find a safe place to stay and let my fellow Taoist live in the mirror world. I can arrange food, drink and other expenses and have them delivered to the room.

This way, people outside won't know, and the Heavenly Dao won't notice."

The little girl nodded thoughtfully: "That's a good idea."

"Not only that, there's more!" Chen Yan said slowly, "Food and clothing are actually secondary. We cultivators don't really care about these enjoyable things."

The little girl muttered softly, "Actually... I do care."

"..." Chen Yan looked at the little girl and continued with a smile: "There is one more important thing that I may be able to help you with."

Having said this, Chen Yan deliberately paused, then slowly uttered two words: "Vitality!"

The little girl's eyes lit up!
Chen Yan smiled and said, "This world has no vitality. Although my fellow Daoist has profound Daoist cultivation, no matter how profound your foundation is, it is like water without a source. Over time, it will eventually dry up.

But if I can help you in the outside world, I can regularly bring some things rich in vital energy into this world for you to breathe in and replenish your vital energy!"

The little girl's eyes brightened a little.

After being stunned for a moment, she suddenly stood up and bowed to Chen Yan earnestly, her tone very serious: "If you can really help me like this... I will definitely thank you for saving my life!"

Chen Yan was stunned and frowned, "Well, this can't really be considered saving a life, right?"

“It counts!”

The little girl shook her head and said solemnly, "Although my vitality is deep, no matter how hard I try to conserve it, it will eventually run out. Once my vitality is depleted, my cultivation will be gone, and I will become a mortal.

"Becoming a mortal without my magical powers, I will have a short lifespan like any mortal, and will slowly waste my lifespan here before dying. Daoist friend, by helping me replenish my vitality, you are doing me a favor by extending my life!"

Okay, you are someone who knows how to be grateful, that’s good!

Chen Yan was very satisfied.

If this little girl was not grateful, then Chen Yan might have to change his strategy in treating her.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan waved his hand steadily and said, "Well, don't thank me yet. After all, we don't know if we can bring in things rich in vitality. We haven't tried it before, so it's really hard to say now."

The little girl seemed to be unable to hold back: "Well, why not try it quickly?"

Chen Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Unfortunately, I'm a very weak Guiyuan Realm. Not only can I not refine pills, I can't make any instruments, or even any magical tools that can store vital energy... Ordinary instruments can be infused with a little vital energy, but the capacity is very small."

In fact, Chen Yan does have a magic weapon to store vital energy - that ring is it!
But Chen Yan would never give the ring to a little girl!
They met by chance, and although Chen Yan wanted to make friends with this Half-Step Venerable, he was not generous enough to easily give away his most valuable treasure.

The little girl laughed immediately.

She walked over to the pile of old clothes she had taken off, rummaged through them, then raised her fist to Chen Yan's eyes and gently spread out her chubby little hand. In her palm were several black buttons that looked like black jade.

"This is?"

"This is Black Spirit Crystal, used to store vital energy. I brought this with me when I came to this world. However, the original vital energy inside has been consumed by me. This thing is of no use to me anymore and could have been thrown away.

But I thought, after all, this thing was brought from the outside world, and maybe it could help me recall some memories one day, so I made it into a few buttons and sewed them on my clothes.

The little girl gently placed five black spirit crystals on the coffee table in front of Chen Yan: "Take this, you can infuse the vitality outside into it, and then try to see if you can bring it in for me."

"Okay." Chen Yan didn't hesitate and put away the five Black Spirit Crystals. "I still have a few things to discuss with my fellow Taoist."

"you say!"

"You..." Chen Yan took a deep breath: "Do you know the domain?"

"...I don't know." The little girl shook her head blankly.

Chen Yan nodded, not surprised by this answer - after all, she said that she had even forgotten where she came from.

But Chen Yan guessed that this little girl should be from the domain!
It is not clear how it came about, maybe there is an event in the past, but judging from her cultivation and the realm division system, it should be from the domain!
Chen Yan had thought that this little girl might come from some new world or space.

But even if it is a new world and a new space, it doesn't make sense that it would be such a coincidence that even the cultivation system would be the same.

Chen Yan told the little girl his guess right then and there. After listening, the little girl lowered her head in silence, thinking for a while, then looked up and said, "Maybe you're right. I might be from that place you called the Domain Realm, but I really don't remember it at all."

"There's no rush. I don't have any clues right now, but this matter isn't urgent anyway. I'll slowly look for clues later." Chen Yan consoled her, then raised a new question: "Can you... leave Hong Kong City?"

"We can't go too far." The little girl frowned.

"why?"

The little girl glanced at Chen Yan and said, "This mirror world is not infinite..."
