Chapter 2 I really have eyes
Shaked his head.
Chen Shu put aside these messy thoughts, rubbed his increasingly itchy eyes, and got on the bus.
When he got on the bus, Chen Shu was still thinking about what would happen in two days.
The meditation room is a good place. Indeed, as a previous classmate said, one hour of practicing in it is enough to equal three days of hard training outside.
This is also of great benefit to Chen Shu.
If there was no meditation room, his body would not be able to change so quickly, and the time would probably be extended to at least three or four years.
In addition, his parents died early in this life, and his life was already poor. Where he could afford such things as cultivation resources, the meditation room was his only resource.
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with any ideas.
We can only wait and see what happens next.
I got in the car and found a seat by the window and sat down.
Chen Shu shrank his coat. At this time, he was riding an old-fashioned bus without air conditioning. The bus was crowded with people. He sat by the window and pushed away the fog with his hands. The scene outside the window became much clearer.
Through the unclear mirror, what was reflected was a young man with an ordinary face, about eighteen or nineteen years old. He was wearing a simple cotton coat, and his cheeks were red from the cold.
But a pair of eyes are extremely beautiful, especially the left eye, which is crystal clear, like a clear pool, and looks as crystal clear as a gem. But at this time, the left eye is slightly red, which is probably due to itchiness. the sequelae brought about.
But no matter what, because of those eyes, his ordinary face became surprisingly attractive.
But even though he had been watching for ten years, Chen Shu could still see a young man in his twenties through this face - but it was the appearance of his previous life.
Shaking his head, Chen Shu put these distracting thoughts behind him. After all, he had sworn that he would never tell anyone about this even if he was killed.
"It's raining."
someone said.
Chen Shu looked up at the sky.
The sky was dark, and the few idle clouds in the sky were also imprinted with gray colors. Raindrops fell in the air, showering all over the city, and finally gathered on the streets and flowed into the underground pipes along the drainage pipes.
It was already November, the temperature had dropped, and a winter rain had made the weather even worse. The pace of pedestrians had also become hurried, but most people seemed to have been prepared and held umbrellas.
Ever since the lake in Shikou City turned into a spiritual god eighteen years ago, the rainfall in Shikou City has been increasing year after year. It was originally a small city on the northwest border, but now it has a bit of a Jiangnan feel.
The spiritual god is quite powerful. Many people in Shikou City have signed contracts with him, and he also has many water-type attack methods.
It's just that Shikou City has always been an energy city with developed industry and coal industry. However, this drizzle did not fill it with such poetic and picturesque scenery, but instead revealed a dirty feeling.
It has improved a lot in the past two years. In the first few years, when the rain fell on my body, it was a muddy spot, which was difficult to wash off.
It’s just that winter is a lot harder.
The north, which was originally dry and cold, is now damp and cold.
It has only been a few hundred years since mankind entered the age of divinity, but a spiritual god turned into a lake has already been able to change an environment.
Sitting quietly on the bus, I watched the surrounding environment gradually change from lively prosperity to depression. The entire city was developing northward, but Chen Shu's family lived in the southern suburbs.
Not long after.
The bus arrives.
Chen Shu got out of the car, followed a winding road, went up two flights of stairs, and finally came to a group of old buildings, where he could barely make out what a community looked like.
The southern suburbs have also been prosperous. When the coal industry was booming, because the southern suburbs were close to several mines, most workers lived here. In addition, some coal bosses did not regard money as money. At that time, the southern suburbs were the whole The center of Shikou City.
But then coal collapsed, and as workers from all over the country left, the false prosperity in the southern suburbs was completely torn apart, and now it has completely declined.
After all, there is no place for tea tasting in the southern suburbs now.
The same is true for this old building. There are only a few residents left, and the occupancy rate is probably only one-third at most.
Especially recently.
I don’t know where the rumor came from. It is said that someone near the community has seen traces of evil spirits. The even more exaggerated statement is that an old man living alone died at home because of the evil spirit.
As a result, many people moved away temporarily.
In this case, naturally there is no property at all.
However, Chen Shu's building is an exception. There are actually five households living in the five-floor flat building.
Chen Shu lives on the third floor.
When passing by the first floor, the door quietly opened a gap.
An old woman with white hair popped out of it: "Xiao Shu, are you back from school?"
"Um"
Chen Shu responded with a smile: "Grandma Zhang, aren't you going for a walk today?"
"No."
The old woman had a smile on her face: "Would you like to come home for dinner?"
Chen Shu shook his head: "It can't be done."
Said.
Then he went upstairs again.
The old woman's eyes flickered, and she quietly closed the door again.
…
The Chen family has experienced ups and downs.
In the early years, the family relied on a spiritual diary, which was barely regarded as an artifact. Relying on this, a soul-suppressing office was opened to purify the dead souls to prevent them from breeding evil spirits.
Even so, I was having a pretty good time.
But now, there is only this slightly simple second bedroom left.
It was just tidied up.
"Brother, are you back? Wash your hands. Food will be ready soon."
A girl who looked like a junior high school student walked out of the kitchen. She was completely different from Chen Shu's ordinary face. Chen Qin seemed to have completely inherited the excellent genes of his parents. Although he was only fifteen years old, he could still tell that Beautiful.
"Why are you back?"
Chen Shu frowned: "School is on holiday today?"
Chen Qin shook his head: "The school has a half-day vacation. There is nothing to do at school, so I will come back."
Chen Shu glanced at her and could tell at a glance that she was lying, but he didn't say anything.
Since the last time they talked on the phone, Chen Shu told her in amusement that there were traces of evil spirits wandering around the community, her school began to have "half-day holidays" every now and then.
Chen Shu regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself in the face.
Not only in appearance, but also in talent, Chen Qin was completely different from him. When she was thirteen years old, a pair of "Chopstick Spirit Gods" came into her bottle when she was communicating with heaven and earth. Later, she communicated with the Kitchen God in another dimension. and signed a contract with it.
In the second year, there was a special recruitment for the Spiritual Chef Academy.
The status of spiritual chefs is not low at all. They feed spiritual gods with their cooking skills. A powerful spiritual chef is no worse than a divine master in terms of social status or personal strength.
In particular, Chen Qin's pair of chopsticks transformed the spiritual spirit. One chopstick controls "taste" and the other chopstick controls "balance". It is quite not simple.
Not to mention, the Kitchen God is a very high-ranking god, and it is extremely rare to be able to sign a contract with him.
It can be said that it is the template of the chosen cook.
He is now at the level of a formal divine master and is definitely a genius.
You must know that in the entire No. 1 Middle School, only two students have reached the level of official divine master.
These are all geniuses.
Although the official divine master is not a powerful person, he is already a reserve wandering master.
There is a saying in the world: Only by becoming a wandering divine master can one be considered a true divine master.
After reaching the wandering god level, the strength will also usher in a huge increase period, and the physical strength of the divine master will also usher in changes.
I heard from Chen Qin’s teacher that because of her outstanding performance, the Lingchu University in Shanghai was already communicating about special recruitment.
It's just that this girl hasn't told him yet.
Chen Shu naturally knew exactly what was going on in his mind. He was just worried that no one would take care of him after she went to the magic city.
From the perspective of others, his situation does fall into the category of people in need of help.
"well."
Chen Shu secretly sighed in his heart, so it is said that children from poor families have already become masters, but in today's society, whoever raises children does not raise them richly?
It is a good thing that those who are sensible do not see it too early.
Washed hands.
Chen Shu came to the dining table.
There are only three dishes, two vegetarian dishes and one meat dish. Although they are all the most common ingredients, Chen Qin's ability can forcefully present a sense of delicacy.
Even the simplest rice, steamed by Chen Qin, is crystal clear and looks very appetizing.
As soon as he looked at these dishes, Chen Shu knew that this must be communication that borrowed some of the Kitchen God's abilities. Such a meal was not a small consumption for Chen Qin.
On the other side of the dining table, except Chen Qin.
There are also two special beings, a girl wearing an apron, about fifteen centimeters tall, and a boy of the same height wearing the same apron.
The two little spirits are both naive and very cute.
It is Chen Qin's god, the spirit god of the pair of chopsticks, one yin and one yang, corresponding to the chopsticks.
At this time, everyone was looking at the food on the table with salivation.
One spirit and two gods, this is why Chen Shu has always lamented Chen Qin's talent.
Chen Shu was already used to this. After all, he had watched these spiritual gods grow up.
Chen Qin had a smile on his face: "Brother, eat quickly."
Seeing her like this, Chen Shu swallowed his words again.
The food tastes delicious.
It has to be said that Chen Qin's cooking skills are definitely the best he has ever seen in his life. Almost all the food on the table went into Chen Shu's stomach in a hurry, making his stomach feel warm.
After burping comfortably, Chen Shucai said, "Yuanyuan, your skills are getting better and better."
Chen Qin’s nickname.
"hey-hey."
Chen Qin smiled and said with some regret: "Brother's craftsmanship is amazing. Even my instructor was full of praise for the dish you taught me to make last time."
"If you can communicate with the Kitchen God, even if there is no Spiritual God in the bottle, you will definitely become a particularly famous Spiritual Chef!"
Chen Shu smiled and waved his hand: "I'm still worse than you."
Chen Qin's words are actually not exaggerated.
In his previous life, he was just a gourmand. He didn't smoke, drink or even play games, but only enjoyed delicious food.
After coming to this world, this talent seems to have been strengthened. His tongue is extremely sensitive to taste. He can recreate the recipe of most dishes with just one taste.
Originally, he had always thought that he would eventually embark on the path of a spiritual chef.
The result was unexpected.
Seeing his sister return to the house, Chen Shu's eyes moved. Sometimes he also thought that it would be great if he really had a sister.
…
It is very difficult for ordinary people to live in today's society. Among all walks of life, the status of a god is undoubtedly a cheat.
Not to mention anything else, in all walks of life, those who stand in high positions are always divine masters.
Ordinary people can only exchange their hard work for an income, so there is actually a reason why the national birth population has been declining in recent years.
In the end, Chen Shu didn't talk to his sister about going to school in Magic City. Anyway, it was only for the next semester.
In fact, he felt that his sister was worrying too much.
Even if I am really the so-called "forsaken person", in this life, I have been studying hard since I was a child. If nothing else, there is still no problem in getting into a similar university.
As for the future, it’s really hard to say.
Chen Shu threw away the messy thoughts from his mind and began to pay attention to his physical condition.
My eyes are really itchy.
Since I came back from the meditation room today, my left eye has been itching more and more frequently. Now, it is even more itchy.
It was a feeling as if there were ants burrowing through it, numb and accompanied by some slight pain.
Far more than any other such feeling.
If I had to describe it, it would probably be "like it's growing eyeballs".
Quite uncomfortable.
Chen Shu came to the mirror and looked at it carefully.
The entire left eye was slightly red at this time, with blood streaks spreading on it, as if it had been after staying up for several long nights. Other than that, there was nothing unusual about it.
It's just that the itching is far worse than it's ever been.
Even the evening meditation time that he usually insists on, Chen Shu now feels a little unable to support it.
He lay down on the bed in two steps, his head felt dizzy, and he didn't know when he lost consciousness.
night.
Chen Shu seemed to have had a dream. He dreamed that he was walking aimlessly in a desert. There seemed to be something attracting him somewhere in the desert.
He didn't know how long he had been walking when a huge rift valley suddenly appeared in front of him. It was bottomless. He walked around the rift valley. After a while, another high mountain appeared in front of him. He climbed up slowly, and then I don’t know how far I traveled.
He came to a flat place.
That's what attracted him.
Suddenly, the earth shook, and the land rolled up, as if there was an earth dragon churning, but there was no smoke or dust. The next moment, Chen Shu was stunned, and he saw an eye exposed under the churning land!
That eye turned out to be extremely familiar.
Chen Shu doesn’t need to think about it carefully.
next moment.
A severe pain came from his body, waking Chen Shu up from his dream. Maybe he had just woken up from his dream, and his senses were not sensitive.
However, his eyes were covered with a thick layer of blood. He stretched out his hand to touch his left eye and saw - it was all covered in blood.
In addition, there is an eyeball.
That's a human eyeball.
It's not crystal clear, like a puddle of soft flesh in a pool of blood.
Before Chen Shu could react, he sat up blankly and looked at the mirror next to the closet.
In the mirror, an ordinary-looking boy was staring blankly at each other. The left eye socket was empty, and only the entangled and twisted flesh buds could be seen growing in it.
And soon.
Then it quickly wrapped into a circle at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye. In a short while, a brand new eyeball grew out.
It glows faintly at night, blooming with new colors.
Chen Shu reacted now.
oh.
It turns out that he really has eyes.
