Chapter 458

"Jingjing, come here first..."

Seeing Armitage waving to him, Chen Jing walked over without thinking.

"What's wrong, Professor?"

"An hour ago, our two-way jump ritual with the Dagon Esoteric Cult was launched. Chagong just tried it once. He ran to the inner city through the ritual and picked up a few crystal lanterns to take back as souvenirs... …”

"Just bring him with you." Chen Jing said in a dumbfounded voice, "We're not that stingy. Besides, he's already here, so why not have a meal before leaving?"

"They're busy over there," Armitage whispered. "Some people among them suddenly changed their minds and said they didn't agree with the arrangement of this two-way ritual, so he hurried back to clean it up..."

Hearing this, Chen Jingding nodded, but didn't take it to heart. He just said that if he couldn't clean it up, we would go over and help him. It was time for him to celebrate the New Year...

"Actually, when he came to visit Kakosa two months ago, there were some discordant voices within the Tantric Cult..." Armitage said in a low voice.

Chen Jing smiled, stuffed a red envelope and patted Armitage on the shoulder.

"Professor, we are celebrating the Chinese New Year. Let's not talk about these unhappy things. If someone deliberately doesn't want us to have a good New Year, we should go to his house on the first day of the new year. What a big deal..."

"Okay, then I'll keep in touch with him and let you know if anything happens!"

"Um……"

Just when Chen Jing was about to go to the kitchen to join in the fun, a scream suddenly came from not far away.

Chen Jing subconsciously looked back and saw a firework with a golden tail soaring high into the sky, and then exploded with a loud noise that shook the earth.

All of a sudden.

The pigherd ran over from a distance wearing an apron, holding a large spoon stained with pot gas.

"Let them come in and serve the food! What are you waiting for! Dinner is ready!!"

Chapter 658: "He" disappeared in the fireworks (Part 1)

At the moment the New Year's dinner began, the timing devices scattered in the city were also activated, and fireworks specially made by Hassad continued to rise into the sky with deafening loud noises...

They were like comets of different colors, dragging their tails and exploding in the sky with screams.

Some fireworks are as blue as sea water. When they explode, they set off ripples that spread hundreds of miles under the night sky, as if the sky has really turned into an ocean, and the shining stars have turned into glowing plankton in the sea water... …

Some fireworks are traditional.

Simple yet gorgeous.

Sometimes it is as unrestrained as fire trees and silver flowers, and sometimes it is as gorgeous as the stars in the sky.

Accompanied by the extremely strong "gunpowder scent", the entire Kakosha was enveloped in this bright firework.

Although they are fleeting.

But it left a deep mark on everyone's mind.

It's Kakosha's New Year.

It is also the first New Year's Eve that everyone spends together.

"I hope everything goes well in the coming year..."

Chen Jing looked at the gorgeous sky and instinctively made a wish, but after making the wish, he felt ridiculous. After all, others usually come to make wishes to him... As the king of deep space, who should he make a wish to?

Under the bright fireworks, even the old man couldn't help but raise his face and look at these "children's things" with a smile. That scary face was no longer serious or fierce, but revealed a rare trace of anger. Kind and kind.

Hassard and Lawrence were sitting next to him. The former was his best friend for many years, and the latter was a close friend. The three old men were changing glasses of wine at the moment. They didn't look like they were old descendants at all. He looks more like an ordinary old man.

Especially Lawrence.

After undergoing surgery by the family members, the "holes" all over his body have disappeared, and even the missing eyeballs have grown back. Although he also looks like an old man, it is not difficult to see that he should still have a European and American style when he was young. handsome guy.

"Oh, I didn't expect that decades would pass by in such a flash..."

"Yes, when we were studying in the academy, we thought time passed so damn slowly, but in the blink of an eye... we were all immortal!"

"You are all educated people." Lawrence said with a smile, "I didn't have the opportunity to study. I have been crawling around in the wasteland since I was a child. I am lucky to be alive today."

Compared with these three old people who are remembering the past, Armitage, his agemate beside him, is not so relaxed. At this moment, he is counting the accounts with Su Ye on his fingers, and calculating how to replenish the supplies consumed by this banquet, and how to replenish the supplies consumed by this banquet. It is to calculate whether the materials for the fireworks device will be transferred to the account, and if so, who should be recorded...

"If you're celebrating the New Year, don't be so petty." Xuye poured a glass of wine for the old man. As his eyes moved, he couldn't help but look at Chen Jing, who was wearing a yellow robe. "Tomorrow will be better than this year. Then you won’t have to calculate these details.”

"I hope so." Armitage shook his head, picked up the wine glass and took a sip. After drinking the cold wine, he felt an indescribable sense of comfort. "Actually, this kind of life is not bad. After so many years of historical research, It’s time for me to enjoy peace and happiness..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Bofu walked over and dragged Armitage away with a chokehold.

"Damn it, what do you have to talk about with these young people! Come on! Give Lawrence a lesson on how powerful I was back then!"

"..."

At this time, the swineherd had also changed out of the chef's apron and came back with a white towel wiping his sweat.

"Brother Zhu, thank you for your hard work today." Yu Hu poured him a glass of wine.

"I'll thank you for the hard work next time." Bai En said with a gloating smile.

The swineherd rolled his eyes at him angrily, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. Then he stood with his hands on his hips and did not take a seat. He scanned the entire banquet site to make sure that all the dishes that should be served were served. Only then was he satisfied. sit down.

"Pour me another glass. I swallowed it too quickly and didn't taste it!"

The wind and snow above the square were shielded by Chen Jing, as if there was a protective shield invisible to the naked eye. The snowflakes falling head-on would inexplicably turn and float into the distance at a height of a hundred meters...

"Birdman, you know, my dad bought me a crystal ball when I was a kid, and there were so many snowflakes like this in it."

"Well, I've seen similar ones in the mall. They don't seem cheap..."

"Shake it and it will snow."

Wei Nan still looked like he was sitting up, sitting cross-legged on the chair, holding a fork in his left hand and a pair of chopsticks in his right hand, obviously ready to cook.

"I feel like we are in that crystal ball right now!" Wei Nan looked up at the separated wind and snow in the night sky like a fool, laughing non-stop, "Ajing was smart and put away the black star in advance, otherwise That thing will definitely block the view and ruin the scenery.”

"Actually, I used to like to be alone." Yan Que also looked at the sky in a daze and said to himself, "But now I am used to being with everyone, and I am no longer alone..."

"Because we have a family." Wei Nan looked at the big elbow on the table and subconsciously smacked his lips, "By the way, when can we eat?"

"I haven't even used my chopsticks yet, why are you in a hurry... Nuo, here it is!" Yanque took out a piece of candy from his pocket and handed it to Wei Nan, "Take a bite first to satisfy your stomach, don't be too hungry. It’s like a dead ghost, shameful!”

"whispering sound……"

Wei Nan unwrapped the candy and threw it into his mouth. He seemed to enjoy the feeling of being taken care of. He sat on the stool and swayed from side to side like a roly-poly.

"I don't know when Sister You Ning will come again... I have eaten all the crispy candies she gave me..."

"I don't know." Yanque turned back to look at Chen Jing at the other table, with a hint of doubt in his tone, "I asked A Jing last time, but he said he didn't know either, and his tone was weird... It seemed like he was talking to Sister Youning had a quarrel."

"Can they quarrel?" Wei Nan blinked in disbelief, "His personality is the same as Sister You Ning's. They are both soft and soft. How can they quarrel?"

"Maybe I'm too worried." Yanque shrugged, "It would be best if we didn't quarrel, but then again... can you put your shoes on! How old are you! I'm not afraid that the old man will beat you up if he sees it. !”

"You're so scared." Wei Nan snorted, but still put on his shoes obediently, muttering, "That old man wears flip-flops every day, and whenever he sits down and has nothing to do, he picks his feet. What did I say... "

at this time.

Chen Jing also stood up under the "instigation" of the old men, holding a wine glass filled with fruit soda in his hand, looking so embarrassed that his toes were clenching.

"Then what... let me mention something!"

Chen Jing coughed twice and quickly attracted everyone's attention.

"It's the New Year... let me just say this briefly... I wish us a better life every year! I've done it! You can do whatever you want!"

After saying that, Chen Jing raised his head and drank all the soda in the cup with a heroic attitude... I have to say that there is something wonderful about this nebula body. It can be absorbed by pouring it up without opening your mouth. , it just looks a little weird to outsiders.

"Why are you looking at me..."

Seeing everyone's blank expressions, Chen Jing thought there was something wrong with his New Year's speech, but even if there was something wrong, he wouldn't take the blame. After all, the old man helped think of this speech.

"Is it that simple?" Hassad wanted to pass the note in his hand over again, but was still ignored by Chen Jing, "Look at the words I wrote for you. It's not much more than 3,000 words. I'll finish it after reading it for a while... …”

"My grandson is a bit introverted to begin with. You let him talk so much because you want to deliberately embarrass him, right? You old man..." Chen Bofu grabbed Hassad back with a chokehold.

I have to say that Chen Jing has tempered his face during this period. Although he still felt like he was being put on the stage, he was able to hold on for a while.

"Then what...eat! Use chopsticks!"

At this moment, a long-lost voice suddenly sounded in Chen Jing's mind.

"I thought you kid could fart... I didn't expect you to be even worse eloquent than me, hahaha..."

Chapter 659: "He" disappeared in the fireworks (Part 2)

When Chen Jing shouted "move the chopsticks", Wei Nan immediately stretched out his fork, but Yan Que hit him on the back of his hand with a chopstick and knocked him back.

"You've already put your fork away. I'll pick up whatever we want to eat!"

"mean……"

At this moment, the square of the temple is very lively. The slightly tacky smell of fireworks makes people forget that this is a city of gods... Those who don't know better think that this is an open-air banquet held in the countryside. At least the lively atmosphere is in place. .

At the table where Chen Jing and the others were sitting, apart from a few old people, only Xi and Yegetos were left. This was also the reason why Wei Nan and the others were unable to squeeze over...

"You can go and eat with your own bowl." Xi and Chen Jing stayed together for a long time, and they became more and more like "people", especially when they complained about others quietly, "It's so big You are so tall that you have to squeeze in. If your master hadn't made a chair for you, I wonder where you would sit!"

"I'm happy to." Jegertos snorted, directly put the elbow on his plate with the extended chopsticks, and then gave Chen Jing two-thirds of it, "If you don't accept it, just hold it in."

"You..." Xi was so angry that he wanted to throw the bowl and chopsticks at his face. If Chen Jing hadn't been so proud, he would have beaten up Jegertos, a guy with no discernible features.

"Old man! Can you stop the fireworks!" Armitage was so noisy that he shouted at the top of his voice, "Can't you put them off after dinner? It's so noisy!"

"What do you know? This is called atmosphere!" Hassad glanced at him and continued to drink with Chen Bofu.

Unlike everyone who was pushing cups and changing cups, Chen Jing seemed a little extra silent. He only occasionally responded perfunctorily to others and mechanically moved his chopsticks to put food into his mouth.

…

"Fuck! You're still alive! I knew your kid wasn't dead!"

"I was just so sleepy that I took a nap..."

"You don't know how many things happened after you fell asleep! And King Huang's plan... you definitely can't imagine it!"

"Talk about it."

Chen Jing could tell that there was something wrong with the tone of "him" speaking, and he instinctively thought that "he" was like the old man. He had just woken up and was still a little confused, so when he narrated it to him, he couldn't help but slow down the pace of his speech.

We talked for almost half an hour.

Chen Jing then told everything that happened after "he" fell asleep.

I thought "he" would act surprised, or complain excitedly that he had gone the wrong way, but... nothing.

"He" behaved very calmly from beginning to end. Occasionally, he would ask Chen Jing a few careful questions about a certain topic, and then analyze other possibilities for the matter to Chen Jing.

"Although it's not smooth, at least the result is good. You are destined to go further than me in the future."

"Hmm...why do I feel that you are weak when speaking?" Chen Jing asked cautiously, "Are you okay?"

"fine."

"That's fine, I thought..."

"Just dying."

"???"

Chen Jing didn't immediately turn around from "his" answer. He was stunned for almost half a minute before he spoke in disbelief.

"Are you going to die?!!"

"Well, I don't have much energy left. I can hold on for a while at most... In fact, I'm quite lucky to wake up this time, not to mention that I woke up during your Chinese New Year."

Hearing "his" particularly hearty laughter, Chen Jing still felt a little uncomfortable. Although he had been mentally prepared long ago, he knew that some things could not be saved, such as "him" from another world. …

In "his" own words.

Death that exhausts his vitality is inevitable, and not even the Creator can save "him".

"It's so lively..." At this moment, "he" was looking around with the help of Chen Jing's eyes, his tone was a little happy and a little disappointed, "It's a pity that I didn't celebrate the New Year with the old man and the others... Damn, I really envy you. "

"You...really want to leave?"

"Nonsense, if I were to joke about this with you, it would be so frustrating!"
