Thank you Rosano for the coffee!

Recap
As the sun rises, a bit of dappled sunlight shines on Xunzhe’s snake tail.
Chu Shici saw the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a very faint smile.
At the same time, a system notification sounded in the background.
[Add 2 points to the vitality value, and the current vitality value is 4.]
___
The sun rose quickly, and could no longer shine on Xunzhe.
He waited for a while, then turned and went back into the cave, and found a corner to curl up and sleep.
Chu Shici yelled a few times, but the white snake didn’t respond.
He sat on the little lotus, ready to go out to pick wild fruits.
The system ran out joltingly, [I copied the photo I took last night, a beauty with a snake tail, very fragrant, do you want to save it?]
Chu Shici shook his head: “Keep it with you first, and when this world is over, I will pick and choose.”
In the last world, Chu Shici’s vitality value finally reached 80, the system bought him a small gift out of its own pocket.
‘Album full of memories’ is a newly popular online celebrity product, and it is used by many systems.
Put all the photos you have taken in the album, and the memory fragments related to the photos will be automatically generated.
Click to select a photo, and you will dream about it when you sleep. Revisit that memory from a first-person perspective.
Every time he went to a new world, Chu Shici would secretly wipe away his tears at night, and whenever he was asked why, he would say, ‘Tong-ge, I miss my Zhe-ge so much.’
It just so happens that the system always takes photos of beautiful men while knocking on his CP, and has several G photos on hand. It bought a memory album and asked Chu Shici to pick out his favorite photos and put them in.
Whenever you miss Zhe-ge, choose a photo and return to the good times.
After being rejected, the system snorted, [I think it’s pretty good-looking, none of the previous Zhe-ge is as good-looking as this snake beauty.]
Chu Shici picked out a good place in the back mountains to bask the little lotus in the sun.
‘You don’t understand, the sweet interaction between two people is the best kind of memory for me.’
[Oh, no wonder you chose all the clips with kiss scenes before.]
Chu Shici was silent for a moment. In fact, what he wanted were photos related to the two-person exercise.
Although Zhe Ge’s personalities in each world are similar, there is still a big difference in body and strength.
He wants to enjoy all kinds of happiness in his dreams.
The system doesn’t have this kind of inventory, at most it can take a bunch of mosaics.
Chu Shici borrowed a camera from it, and was going to try to record it himself when the time came.
The little lotus soon got enough sun and began to emit a faint golden light.
Pilgrims went up the mountain one after another, and the small-scale temple is now full of people.
Xunzhe would turn into a snake and sleep in a corner during the day, ignoring Chu Shici.
He was bored, so he sat on the lotus flower and flew to the roof where Lady Dayangtian was enshrined, poking his head in to watch the excitement.
These pilgrims have different accents, and there are also many foreigners.
Several women were carrying bright bags, wearing jeans, big wavy hair, and a faint smell of perfume on their bodies.
Standing with the pilgrim whose clothes are patched next to them, they look a little out of place.
Not far away, a well-dressed man with sunglasses was on the phone, and Chu Shici looked at his phone.
It’s a bit like the brick cellphones he has seen in Hong Kong movies*.
*(, image source: weibo)
Chu Shici didn’t know the brand and model of this phone, but after so many days of observation, he thinks that it should be in the 1990s.
The pilgrims basically come to beg for a boy, begging the lady to bless their family to give birth to a big fat boy.
Chu Shici stole a steamed bun from the kitchen, held it in his arms and gnawed on it.
The man wearing sunglasses became more and more emotional, shouting into the mobile phone while walking towards the main hall.
The surrounding voices were too noisy, Chu Shici vaguely heard what he was saying, ‘You can’t even watch over a woman, just go to jail! A bunch of trash!’
He only yelled once before realizing that this was not a place to talk, hung up the phone and entered the hall cursing.
Chu Shici finished eating most of the steamed buns, and was about to break some steamed bun residues to feed the nearby sparrows when the system, which has been busy knitting sweaters, suddenly let out a snort, [Why is that man here?]
Looking in the direction it pointed, Chu Shici saw a monk leading the man in sunglasses out of the small door at the back of the hall.
The two went straight to a small house near the back mountains, one behind the other.
There are few people there, and ordinary pilgrims can’t get through without the monks in the temple leading the way.
Chu Shici was bored, so he patted the lotus platform and followed to join in on the fun.
The two entered the house, the monk looked around before carefully locking the door.
There is not even a window in this room, only a small wooden door, leaving no opportunity for people to peep in.
Chu Shici eavesdropped against the door, the room was sound proof and he couldn’t hear a single sound.
As a result, he became more curious.
After more than half an hour, the wooden door opened. While the monk and the man in sunglasses were walking out, Chu Shici flew into the room beside their feet.
The wooden door closed behind him, and there was a sound of locking.
After they left, Chu Shici flew out from the corner and looked around.
The room was very luxurious, and a golden statue of a deity was enshrined in the center.
The statue is made of pure gold, and the facial features are very shallow and vague, but Chu Shici always thinks that she has a charming face.
They obviously didn’t deliberately sculpt her figure, but it made people feel that she is very sexy.
The moment he saw the goddess statue, Chu Shici felt dazed.
He couldn’t help but lean forward and almost fell off the lotus platform.
The system found an abnormality, [Hey, Ah Ci! Wake up!]
It yelled several times in a row before Chu Shici came back to his senses.
The system reprimanded him, [You stared at her for so long, are you even worthy of Zhe-ge?]
Chu Shici covered his head with lingering fear, ‘This is impossible, I’m a hardcore 0, I’m so gay that I’ve lost the ability to appreciate women. And she has no facial features, how could I think she is a beauty!’
[Tsk, if Zhe-ge knew, he would cry. Let me see what this is, daring to dismantle my CP, I…]
The little ball of light fell silent halfway through, staring blankly at the statue as if petrified in place.
Chu Shici patted the system, ‘I’ll just say it’s not my fault.’
[Although I can appreciate the beauty of human beings, I am a ball! I even wanted to kneel down to her and beg her to accept me as a spare tire. Fuck, it’s so fucking evil!]
Both of them were silent for a while, and they all looked at the golden statue.
This time they were on guard, they didn’t see the loss of consciousness, but they still felt dazed for a moment.
This statue is not exquisite at all, and even the facial features are a mess, but it makes people feel a little bit excited just by looking at it.
Chu Shici’s mind was getting more and more confused, he didn’t dare to look any more, and turned his head to look at other furnishings in the house.
In front of the statue is a large table with a pile of folders on it.
After taking it apart, there are a bunch of brief introductions inside. There are many people, men and women. Their birthdays and family conditions are written in the introductions.
The system poked its head, [There is a time after the date of birth, is this the time of death? They are all dead?]
Chu Shici hummed, “And most of them are no more than fifty years old, these are not natural deaths.”
He opened the folder next to him again, and suddenly froze when he saw a photo.
The photo shows the man in sunglasses just now, he is the owner of a casino. According to the folder, he will die in three days.
In the folder containing the profile of the man in sunglasses, there are two other photos.
Looking at the dates, a woman of twenty-one dies today, and a man of fifty-nine dies tomorrow.
Chu Shici restored everything and tilted his head in doubt.
Can this folder predict the future?
In the small room, apart from the idol and folders, there are no other special items.
Chu Shici couldn’t figure out what was going on, so he simply didn’t care about it, and turned back to look for Zhe-ge.
He originally planned to push the door open a crack and then get out through the crack.
But after pushing it twice, he realized that it was not a double door, no matter how much he shook it, he couldn’t open it.
There was no window in the room, so Chu Shici paced around worriedly.
He flew back and forth on the lotus platform, and finally landed on the table blankly.
It’s over, he can’t get out.
___
After basking in the sun in the morning, Xunzhe turned back into a white snake and coiled up to sleep.
He is not an ordinary snake, he is transformed from a stone carving.
In the Taoist temple, there is a stone mural carved with mountains and depicts a forest scenery. In addition to the mountains and rivers, there are also some creatures carved in.
A small snake was carved on a big tree, and that snake was Xunzhe.
The stone carvings are made of high-quality materials, coupled with the abundance of spiritual aura around, the moonlight always shines at night.
The aged carving gained intelligence, and the animals on the murals cultivated intelligence in an ignorant way, and gave birth to entities little by little.
Later, the stone carving was destroyed by the flames of war, and the small animals that had matured were frightened and ran away, and Xunzhe also ran out.
The little white snake went into the nearby forest to cultivate, and finally became a thousand-year-old snake yao.
Basking in the sun and sleeping coiled up are learned from other snakes. Xunzhe doesn’t have these needs, it’s just that he has developed this habit after a long time.
In the middle of the night after going to sleep, the small halo that had been hanging on the stone wall suddenly went out.
The white snake raised his head and nudged it twice with his tail, but the halo still didn’t respond.
Xunzhe’s upper body turned into a human form, and he picked up the small disk that had lost its light.
This was the first time he saw the Buddha Light. He didn’t expect that this thing not only had a body, but could also be extinguished.
He looked around, the door was closed, and there were no fresh wild fruits and flowers on the ground.
After the little monk basked him in the sun in the morning, he didn’t come back.
Xunzhe was silent for a moment, put the Buddha Light back on the stone wall, and coiled up to sleep again.
After sleeping until the next night, he raised his head and looked around, but the little monk still didn’t come back.
The white snake tail patted the ground lightly, Xunzhe ate a few spoiled wild fruits, and stared at the withered and dried wild flowers.
In the early morning of the next day, the white snake cracked open the door.
The wooden door outside was closed, and there was a small monk figure missing from the shelf of the altar not far away.
After lying in front of the door and waiting all morning, the wooden door did not open.
The white snake slowly retreated to the dark corner of the cave, quietly watching the extinguished Buddha Light.
Does this mean that the little monk died outside?
___
No one came to the small house for a week, and Chu Shici was imprisoned for seven days.
Two days ago, he was still trying to find a way out, but when he found that the wooden door was the only way out, he completely gave up.
Find a small corner and sat down on the ground. His soul ran into the system space and ate and drink at his brother’s house.
Playing games during the day, kissing and falling in love with the first three Zhe-ges in the dream.
Su Zheyan on Wednesday, Mingzhe on Thursday, Gu Yunzhe on Friday, and then a new round.
In order to knock CP, the system will take a crazy amount of pictures every time they kiss.
Beta general Su Zheyan, because he has been in a high position for a long time, often fights with alphas, he is very domineering. He likes to grab Chu Shici’s wrist, press him against the wall and kiss him.
Mingzhe was raised by Chu Shici himself, and his temperament is several times softer than Su Zheyan. Every time before kissing him, he would blush and call Ci-ge.
In the third world, Chu Shici’s vitality value was higher than the average, and his psychological endurance was much stronger.
After Gu Yunzhe lost his memory, he was used to coaxing him, and he developed a habit of looking to him for comfort whenever he was wronged.
Most of the photos taken by the system are pictures of Gu Yunzhe kissing him while weeping.
One husband, three kinds of enjoyment, he was so happy that he flew up, he love the little gift from the system to death.
A new week soon arrived, and on Monday morning, Chu Shici woke up from his dream.
Last night he chose Mingzhe’s related memories, and after falling asleep, he dreamed back to the small room in the second world.
Mingzhe had just returned from the criminal police team, and the two cuddled each other on the sofa, watching a bloody and brain-dead movie.
Chu Shici was still reminiscing, when suddenly there was the sound of unlocking from outside, and the door slowly opened.
He hugged the withered lotus and hid behind the legs of the table, looking out quietly.
A young monk entered the room, followed by a woman with big wavy hair. She was wearing jeans and a cropped top, looking very avant-garde and fashionable.
The monk closed the door and whispered to the woman, “Miss Wang, have you brought your photo and eight characters of birth date*?”
*(The Four Pillars of Destiny, as known as “Ba-Zi”, which means “eight characters” or “eight words” in Chinese, is a Chinese astrological concept that a person’s destiny or fate can be divined by the two sexagenary cycle characters assigned to their birth year, month, day, and hour. For more info)
The woman didn’t respond. She stared at the statue of the goddess obsessively, and couldn’t help reaching out to touch it.
The monk hurriedly stopped her, “This is Lady Dayangtian, don’t touch it casually.”
Only then did the woman come back to her senses, and said in a daze, “Why does she look different from the one in the hall? She’s not as solemn anymore.”
The monk smiled and did not answer her question.
He took out a pamphlet from his pocket, opened it and read it, “You’re a bit late, and now there are only three families that are about to give birth to girls. If you want to give birth to a female fetus, you can only choose from these three families.”
“In the first household, the man is a criminal policeman, and the woman is a teacher. Although the family conditions are not considered rich and powerful, they are quite respected.”
“The second household, they are the owners of a big hotel. Their conditions are very good. They can afford famous brands and imported goods, which meet your requirements. The only thing is that they all have their own lovers, they often quarrel, and they may get divorced in the future.”
“The last household, the young couple just came out of the countryside and went to work in the city, and the salary…”
Before the monk finished speaking, he was interrupted by the woman.
She fiddled with her nails, “Second one, I want the couple who owns a hotel.”
The monk didn’t speak any more, took her photo and date of birth, and roughly asked her home address and occupation.
After filling it out on paper and putting everything in the folder, he warned: “The family you selected will give birth at 9:32 p.m. three days later. You must die before 9:00 p.m., otherwise you will not be able to enter reincarnation, you will only become a lonely ghost.”
The woman looked a little embarrassed, “I’m going to commit suicide by jumping off a building, is that possible?”
“As long as you can ensure complete death, miss, you can die in any way. But we don’t recommend being murdered or tortured. If you have too much resentment before death, you will easily become a demon. Even if you reincarnate, you will be a ghost.”
The monk took the money she handed over, “So miss, it’s better to die as comfortably as possible, it’s also good for you.”
Chu Shici, who was hiding behind the table legs, listened in a daze.
This woman has a shadow, she is alive.
Isn’t reincarnation something done by ghosts? Living people talking about reincarnation for fart?
Although he doesn’t know much about Buddhism, he knows without even using his brain that Buddhism is a place to persuade people to be good and save all sentient beings.
Collecting a bag of money and urging people to die, no matter how you look at it, they are not real monks.
The woman is worried and looks distracted.
The two chatted for a while, and went out together. Chu Shici dragged the withered lotus and slipped away next to their feet.
Once again exposed to the sun, the petals of the lotus platform swayed slightly.
Chu Shici stole some water and pondered while watering it.
There is something weird about this temple, there must be some shady things going on behind the scenes.
That Lady Dayangtian also has problems, both men and women will lose their minds when they see her statue, even the system was not let go of.
There are also many people who come to Dayangtian Ming Temple to offer incense today. There is a young couple in plain clothes who kneel and crawl all the way from the front of the mountain gate to the main hall.
After burning the incense, they cried and begged the Lady to bless them and let them have a child.
After Chu Shici watered the little lotus, he floated in the air and looked down.
It was lively below, and the sun was shining brightly above his head, but he felt a chill on his back inexplicably, as if someone was staring at him.
Chu Shici turned his head and looked around. There was not even a bird in the air behind him, but the feeling of being watched never disappeared.
He is not afraid of yaoguais or murderers, at worst, he could just fight.
But this kind of invisible but tangible thing really frightened him a lot.
Chu Shici rubbed his arms, ‘Tong-ge, I’m afraid.’
The system is even more cowardly than him, [Fuck, don’t look at me, I’m even more afraid!]
Chu Shici couldn’t wait any longer, he took a chicken leg from the kitchen, and went to pick two wild fruits. Sitting on the lotus platform full of things, he flew back to the back mountain to find Zhe-ge.
In the dark and cold cave, Xunzhe turned into a human body with a snake tail, holding the small gold plate between his slender fingertips.
The little monk had disappeared for a week, and the Buddha Light never came on again. The little wooden sculpture probably died outside.
For the sake of both of them being inanimate objects turned animate, Xunzhe was going to bury Buddha Light as a tomb for the young monk.
He swung his snow-white snake tail, and was about to slap a pothole, when there was a slight sound of the door opening outside.
Then the door that sealed him opened a crack, and a small golden thing flew in with a whoosh.
After missing for seven days, the little monk who was judged dead by Xunzhe returned.
He gestured with both hands, raised his head and said to the white snake, “There is something invisible to the naked eye, staring at me.”
Xunzhe swung his tail slightly to cover the small hole he just dug.
Looking at the face covered with dirt little monk, he raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, “Are you complaining to me? What you encounter has nothing to do with me, I’m not interested.”
The little monk was not angry either, and even said that he wanted to let him out.
They only met a few times, the little monk has no reason to let him out.
Xunzhe didn’t believe such words at all, and didn’t want to talk to him.
The little monk was flying around in circles on a lotus flower. Xunzhe was annoyed, so he bounced him away, and said coldly, “I’m a yao and you are a monk. Seeing you makes me sick, get out of here.”
He was about to go back, when he suddenly smelled a greasy aroma.
Two wild fruits, a few wild flowers, and a shiny chicken leg fell on the ground.
Chu Shici flew several meters before barely stopping.
Fortunately, he made a safety belt on the lotus with rattan, otherwise he would definitely fall.
Xunzhe slithered up to him dragging his tail, and dangled the chicken leg in front of his eyes, his tone full of sarcasm, “You little monk just took shape, and you’ve already broken the oath.”
The little monk stroked his mala, looked at the chicken leg blankly, “I brought it for you, don’t snakes need to eat meat?”
In the middle of speaking, he suddenly stopped and looked at the chicken legs in surprise, “Yes, monks don’t eat meat, so why did the chicken legs come from in the kitchen?!”
“You stole it from the temple kitchen?”
The little monk nodded vigorously.
Xunzhe raised his eyebrows. He hasn’t been out for more than five hundred years. Now Dayangtian Ming Temple has degenerated to this point?
The monks in the temple eat chicken, and the little monk steals chicken. All of them broke the oath.
Xunzhe is not an ordinary snake, he does not need food, and he is not interested in meat.
The chicken leg once again returned to Chu Shici’s arms again.
The skin on the outside is dirty, but the meat inside is still clean. If the male lead doesn’t eat, he will eat meat.
Chu Shici was about to go out with the chicken legs in his arms when a white snake tail suddenly blocked his way.
A pale hand stretched out, and there was a small disc in his palm.
He heard a man’s cold voice above his head, “It’s not lit, why?”
Chu Shi resigned, “It’s charged by solar energy, and now it’s out of power. I’ll take it out to bask in the sun.”
After the little monk finished speaking, he flew out on a lotus flower.
Xunzhe: …
What does solar charging mean? Why can’t he understand it?
After being imprisoned for more than 500 years, the outside world has changed a lot.
After fully charged, the Buddha light will light up again. Chu Shici put the golden light on the back of his head, peeled off the skin of the chicken leg, and was about to eat it.
That feeling of being stared at came back.
Today’s weather is very hot, but he broke out in a cold sweat instantly.
Chu Shici couldn’t find where the person was, and Chu Shici became more and more panicked.
He put down the chicken legs and ran back to the cave, squeezing hard to the side of the white snake.
The sleeping white snake was awakened.
He looked down at the shivering little monk holding his scales, and moved his tail to circle him.
Xunzhe didn’t feel anything was wrong, he leaned forward and looked at the crack of the door.
It was sunny and sunny outside, nothing unusual. But in the place where the little monk stayed just now, there was an extra set of bloody footprints at some point.
