Cui Zuojing slept for seven hours and was awakened by thirst. The tea cup specially reserved for water on the bedside table was empty. He had no choice but to get up and go downstairs with the empty cup to collect water.
Fu Zhe wasn't there, the whole first floor was empty and less popular. Cui Zuojing boiled a pot of hot water in the kitchen and poured a bottle with cold water.
After going down that much, when he came back, he was no longer sleepy. Cui Zuojing passed Dong Zheng's room and found that the man didn't seem to wake up.
He stood in front of the door with a glass and stared at the door panel. After drinking half of the glass, he sighed like a Lafayette. Knowing that Dong Zheng usually does not lock, he gently pressed the handle, pushed open the door, and slipped in silently. .
There was no light from the outside entering the castle, and the room was dark. Dong Zheng slept soundly with his back to the door. His quilt only covered his waist, revealing his well-trained arms and almost the entire back, which was slowly rising and falling with the frequency of his breathing.
Cui Zuojing stood by the bed and stared at him, motionless and silent. If Dong Zheng woke up now and saw this scene, he might have been directly frightened into cardiac arrest.
Cui Zuojing also couldn't understand why he suddenly sneaked into Dong Zheng's room and looked at him beside the bed like a pervert. There was a complicated emotion in his heart that he couldn't explain, which made him panic a little. He wanted to figure out what it was, but he couldn't grasp the reason and couldn't really dig it out.
Could it be that he came here just to see if he slept well
Cui Zuojing shook his head mockingly, rolled his eyes as an evaluation of his psychedelic behavior, and swaggered out with a teacup.
After he went back, he slept again, and when all the exhaustion was completely eliminated, when he woke up naturally, everyone else had woken up and were chatting in the living room.
Lin Hangyi had slept for too long and his back was sore, he was twisting his body to mobilize his muscles. Victor strolled out of the place where the cat litter box was placed, and tapped the cat litter on his little paw on the door frame.
Dong Zheng and Dong Linhai sat face to face with serious faces, as if they were showing off each other's new abilities. Wang Que came out of the kitchen with this blond young girl behind her.
Cui Zuojing took a look and recalled that this was the female prisoner they rescued from Dusk Island, Lillian from Australia.
Wang Que: "Lillian said she made some food during our break. Everyone must be hungry. Would you like to come and have a meal?"
Suddenly, everyone who was so hungry that their chests and backs were on their backs looked at the two of them. Lillian was obviously still a little shy, and didn't dare to look up at the gay men, and nodded with their heads lowered.
"That's great, I'm about to starve to death." Allen stood up immediately, "Come here and serve bowls, hurry up and eat some cushions first, and go out to find a place to eat next time."
Cui Zuojing looked around and couldn't find Fu Zhe, and asked, "Where's Fu Zhe?"
Victor replied: "In the study, it seems a little uncomfortable?"
"Not feeling well?" Cui Zuojing raised his eyebrows, "How could he be uncomfortable?"
Victor: "I don't know. Anyway, that's what he told me. I asked him if he wanted to help with purification, but he didn't let me. But I look at him that way, it's really uncomfortable."
"Why are you uncomfortable?"
Victor hesitated: "...Don't ask more questions from children."
Cui Zuojing immediately became interested when he heard it: "I am twenty-six, how can I be considered a child! Quickly tell me what kind of uncomfortable method it is?"
Dong Zheng turned his head at this time and rescued Victor from the possible embarrassment. He stared at Cui Zuojing for a few seconds, frowned and said, "Have you grown a little taller?"
Cui Zuojing:
He thought he had heard it wrong: "What?"
Dong Zheng: "I feel like you've grown a little bit taller."
The young man suddenly regained his spirits, he immediately dropped the questioning of Victor, pulled Dong Zheng to stand up, straightened his body, put his hand flat on the top of his head, moved horizontally, and gestured on Dong Zheng.
Dong Zheng was more than 1.8 meters tall, and Cui Zuojing was frozen at the age of 16. He had maintained a state of barely 1.7 meters for eight years.
Now, when he compared, he actually touched Dong Zheng's chin.
Cui Zuojing: ? ! ? ! ? !
"I've grown taller?!" He patted Dong Zheng's back in disbelief to make him straighten up a little bit, took a deep breath, raised his head and raised his chest, his whole body was about to stick to Dong Zheng's body, and he gestured again.
Or to the position of Dong Zheng's chin.
He has really grown taller!
Realizing this fact, Cui Zuojing was about to go crazy with joy. What does this mean? He was frozen for a full eight years, and it started to pass again!
After the first seal was lifted, he finally gained the power of time, and was finally able to resist the vicious curse from the queen.
"Really!" Dong Linhai also stood up and looked at the two brothers. Both of these brothers were much taller than Cui Zuojing, and they looked down more clearly, "Why did they grow so much all of a sudden?"
Dong Linhai, Lin Hangzhi and the others already knew that Cui Zuojing was chosen by the power of time and took on the curse. Cui Zuojing was about to tell them about the first unsealing of the seal on Dusk Island, when he caught a glimpse of Lilian from the kitchen. He came out with the bowl in his hand and stopped talking.
He winked and said, "I'll tell you in detail later."
Although she rescued Lillian from the three men out of conscience and morality in a critical situation, this girl seems to be an honest person, but such a confidential matter cannot be easily heard by outsiders.
Dong Zheng: "Eat first, then call Fu Zhe down later."
A group of people sat at the table in a lively manner. Lillian thought about a group of big men who had been hungry for a long time and cooked a lot of food, but still underestimated their combat effectiveness.
Concerned about not being able to overeat all of a sudden, the stomach will be damaged by eating, everyone has come leisurely, but the amazing speed and food intake still startle both Wang Que and Lillian. When Allen and Dong Linhai asked for the fourth bowl of rice at the same time, Lillian said in horror that they had run out of food.
"Then eat these first." Allen said, getting up and serving himself a bowl of soup.
Lin Hangzhi, who was relatively gentle in eating, said with a smile, "You don't know, our team has a special unit of measurement, called Allen. If Linhai is allowed to eat, he can eat nearly one ounce. Dong Zheng is 0.8 ounces. Little Cui and I have 0.65 relationships, and Queer probably only has 0.2 relationships."
Allen snorted and drank another bowl of soup in a blink of an eye, and even had his mouth empty to defend: "When did you make up this stuff, you haven't seen anything that you can really eat, and my appetite is actually pretty good. Yes."
Wang Que, who was on the side, bowed her head to eat. She was also very hungry. She could only eat one bowl at most. Today, she had another bowl, and she couldn't eat half of it.
Seeing this, Dong Linhai pointed at the bowl with chopsticks and asked her if she mind. Wang Que shook her head, and Dong Linhai brought her half bowl of rice and ate it by herself.
After finishing the table, Cui Zuojing continued to pester Dong Zheng to be happy for his growth after many years, and the others gathered around Lin Hang to study the Heart of Hydra.
The bear with the seam heart was soaked in water and mud, and his body was dirty and damp, and he sat pitifully in the corner of the living room to play by himself. Wang Que picked it up and went to the bathroom to take a good bath. He left the castle and moved a chaise longue to the sunniest place on the balcony of the apartment so that it could dry on its own.
Victor went upstairs to call Fu Zhe, and half an hour later, the two and one cat arrived late.
Fu Zhe's cheeks were a little red, and he couldn't see the slightest discomfort from his mental state. Cui Zuojing tilted his head and looked at him from head to toe. "
Seeing that everyone was going to have a meeting, Lilian knew that she was still an outsider, so she took the initiative to go upstairs to avoid it after pouring tea.
Fu Zhe took his seat and put the Dongxiao, which never leaves his body, by the table, and asked, "I only got one prop in the box this time, right?"
Cui Zuojing: "Yes, there should have been a scepter and amulet."
"What does the scepter look like?"
"About a meter long, golden, topped by vines wrapped around a never-ending hourglass, filled with fine silver sand."
Fu Zhe frowned slightly. After thinking for a few seconds, he didn't know if there was any result. He changed the subject: "I already have a little guess about the origin of that Domingo."
Everyone heard the words and all came to the spirit. In the entire Dusk Island, the most mysterious one is definitely Domingo.
"In the Pure White Realm, the Pilgrim Organization is an alliance formed by different teams in order to obtain more information and facilitate transactions. At present, there are two largest and most systematic organizations, one is called 'White Bird' and the other is called "White Bird". 'Valkyrie'."
Dong Zheng remembered that Cui Zuojing had mentioned it when he was talking to him about the pond carp and Nana, and said, "I remember that you joined Shiratori at the beginning."
Fu Zhe nodded and said: "I used some connections and learned that there is no such person in Shiratori, but that person told me that Valkyrie is collecting information and props from various boxes on a large scale, and it has continued to It's been a long time."
Cui Zuojing: "So you suspect that Domingo was sent from Valkyrie to enter Dusk Island to collect important props?"
"It's just a guess."
Cui Zuojing shook his head: "I don't think it's right. If so, how can I explain that Dong Zheng and I are familiar with him, and he knows my fighting style very well? And if I remember correctly, go to the core Tickets in several areas are all one-way tickets, and if you have entered those areas, it is impossible to come back."
Fu Zhe: "Indeed, there are many contradictions and loopholes in this statement, but from the information obtained so far, no other explanation can be found."
The history of large-scale organizations collecting props has a long history. At least the afternoon tea party had such a business when Shiratori was still in it, but no one believed that Domingo was one of them. If it was just to collect props, then why did he still Want to help Cui Zuojing lift a seal? And this person must know too much.
Dong Linhai scratched his head and said, "If this is the case, don't think about it first. If he really has ulterior motives, he will definitely encounter it in the future."
Cui Zuojing didn't think so. He clearly remembered the last sentence Domingo said to him, which was "Farewell".
Let’s get over this issue for a while, everyone introduced their gains in this box, Dong Zheng’s ability ushered in the first evolution, Cui Zuojing was unblocked for a while, Dong Linhai mastered the summoned beast contract with Victor, Lin Hang Zhi got a set of divination cards... In this way, although the last two props were snatched away, the harvest of this trip was absolutely amazing.
The 3 ability points obtained from the settlement have been added in the direction they want. Dong Zheng still gave it to intelligence and strength. Linhai, Lin Hangzhi, Alan and Wang Que all strengthened their bodies in different directions.
At this moment, no one except Dong Zheng knew that Cui Zuojing was dealing with the most supreme being in the entire pure white world - the queen. Cui Zuojing and Fu Zhe discussed it, and after running the two boxes together and making sure that everyone can trust each other with absolute trust, they will tell them the truth.
Fu Zhe rarely talked nonsense, and the meeting was over in less than 20 minutes. The appearance of Domingo made Fu Zhe aware of the uniqueness of this box. He recorded all the monsters that everyone had seen in the box, consulted all their detailed information, and tried to speculate on some other things hidden behind the surface of the truth.
Finally had time for free time, Allen rushed out to find the proprietress of the hot spring hotel. One of Lin Hang went to the third floor to study the divination cards. His bad luck has not completely subsided, and he did not dare to stay with everyone. Together.
Cui Zuojing took Dong Zheng out to find a place with an electronic height scale, and finally found out his exact height - 173cm, he was indeed three centimeters taller than before.
Cui Zuojing is crazy with joy, what does this mean? This means he can finally grow up!
Although his mental age is growing, he has always maintained the appearance of his youth. Cui Zuojing always feels that he is really still a child. Anyway, when he deliberately did some childish behavior, he put on such a face, and also No one would say he was pretending to be tender.
Over time, he also habitually regarded himself as a half-old child.
Now! Now he can finally grow up!
Dong Zheng is also very happy. His mood is really complicated. On the one hand, he is happy that he can really start when Cui Zuojing grows up. On the other hand, he really likes the appearance of Cui Zuojing in his youth. , Soon after, the appearance of this legitimate and fair lady can only appear in his memories - when he thinks of this, Dong Zheng's guilt will arise spontaneously.
But men, there are some evil little thoughts in their hearts, is it understandable
