The Immortal God of War

Chapter 141 Investigation

After getting the answer he wanted, Liu Chi prepared to let Qinglin take him back.

"Master Qing, Liu Chi has something important to attend to, so I'm sorry I can't accompany you any longer. Please just send me back to where I came from!"

"Oh!" Qinglin came back to his senses from his thoughts, "Are you really not considering marrying my good granddaughter?"

Liu Chi glanced at Qing Yan who was standing close to him, and out of basic courtesy and to please Qing Lin, he said.

"Yan'er is still young. If there is a chance in the future, I will consider it carefully. After all, I can't let you down, and I can't let the Qing family down!"

As for how long it would be, Liu Chi had not thought about it. It could be the next moment or forever.

Qinglin understood that Liu Chi was politely rejecting him, but he also heard the hidden meaning in Liu Chi's words. Liu Chi now thought that his abilities were not strong enough.

"My friend, you are joking. It is a great honor for the Qing family that Yan'er can marry me. No matter what, you have to agree to it!"

Qinglin didn't care about all that. He was determined to take down Liu Chi. He saw endless possibilities in Liu Chi.

The reason Qinglin did this was on the one hand for his own cultivation, and on the other hand for Qingyan.

"I am afraid?"

Liu Chi looked embarrassed, as he was being forced into this arrangement.

"Well, I'll take this as your agreement. As your future grandfather, I'll give you something."

Qinglin looked at Liuchi with a smile and took out a silver ring from the space ring.

The ring scared Liu Chi.

Holy shit! This old man even prepared a wedding ring?

The next moment Liu Chi realized that he had misunderstood Qinglin's meaning.

"This is a space ring that I have treasured for many years. I made three of them in total. Now there is just one for each of us. Just treat it as a token of love between you and Yan'er!"

Qingyan stared at Liu Chi in a daze, her heartbeat slowly speeding up. She knew that once Liu Chi accepted the ring, sooner or later, she would be with Liu Chi.

Liu Chi's eyes lit up. The space ring in his hand had long been insufficient. The ten cubic meters in size was filled up without him noticing.

Unexpectedly, Qinglin would give him such a thing. Liu Chi hurriedly thanked him.

"Thank you, Grandpa Qing!"

"well!"

Qinglin was very satisfied with Liuchi's answer, and used space magic to control the ring to fly towards Liuchi.

The ring flew to Liu Chi, but was not caught by Liu Chi. Instead, Qing Yan playfully grabbed the ring.

Under Liu Chi's astonished gaze, Qing Yan put the silver ring directly on the ring finger of Liu Chi's right hand.

In this world, rings also have some meanings. The middle finger represents having a partner and being married, while the ring finger represents having a marriage partner but not yet married.

Of course, this statement only exists in the concept of some love-brained people.

In the opinion of a qualified magician, only ten magic rings can be worn on ten fingers. Obviously, they are not enough in a fight.

It is obvious that Liu Chi, like Qing Yan, is love-brained.

Seeing Qingyan looking at him with a smile on her face, almost touching his, Liu Chi immediately stood up and said to Qinglin.

"In that case, I will go and take care of my own business. Please, Grandpa, take me back!"

Seeing this, Qinglin also stood up and raised his right hand towards Liu Chi.

"Hey! Are you here alone this time? My dear disciple, where is Lilith? Aren't you two inseparable? Why don't I see her with you?"

Liu Chi looked at Qing Yan and tried hard to keep smiling, but there were some words he couldn't say.

Seeing that Liu Chi suddenly became abnormal, Qing Yan became confused.

"Speak up, why are you grinning like an idiot? What happened to Lilith?"

Seeing that the atmosphere became abnormal, Qinglin didn't bother Qingyan to ask any more questions and directly activated the space magic. With a flash of light, Liu Chi disappeared in the room.

"Chi Chi still has things to do, don't worry. I sense that Lilith is waiting for Liu Chi to come back."

Qinglin hurriedly spoke up for Liuchi. He didn't want to make his beloved Qingyan sad.

After listening to this, Qingyan started laughing again.

“I really want to see them soon!”

As the scenery in front of him changed, Liu Chi returned to Ben's yard. He took a quick look at the ring on his hand, and without even thinking of trying it, Liu Chi went straight into the refining room.

Ben remained in his original state, while the dog fell asleep beside him.

Liu Chi nodded. It seemed that Gou Zi listened to his instructions and did not touch the money.

After listening to Qingyan's description, Liu Chi roughly confirmed that Ben was in a state of disoriented consciousness at the moment.

It seems that my previous guess was roughly correct. The reason for not letting the dog touch Ben was because I was afraid that Ben's body would be displaced, and then Ben would not be able to find his body when his consciousness returned.

Another difficult problem appeared in front of Liu Chi. Although Qingyan returned to her body because she suddenly thought of something, it must be something very important to her.

Now that so much time has passed, if there was something that Ben couldn't let go of, he should have "come back" long ago.

After some thought, Liu Chi squatted down and slapped Gou Zi's face with his hand, trying to teach him a lesson.

In his sleep, as if he was suddenly attacked by an enemy, the dog frowned, punched the air several times, and muttered unintelligible words.

Liu Chi slapped the dog three more times, and this time he finally woke the dog up.

"Ah? Master-Grandmaster? Is it dawn yet?"

Gou Zi squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Chi. He concentrated on refining the weapon for almost the entire afternoon. His eyes were sore.

"No, I want to ask you something."

"Hey! Why are you being so polite, Master? Don't you see what kind of relationship you have with my dog? If you have something to say, just say it directly~"

Liu Chi's face twitched, as if he was hallucinating. This was simply the young version of Ben. His expression and movements were exactly the same as Ben's.

It is true that like master, like disciple will be raised.

"Has your master ever specifically told you which places or things he doesn't want you to know?"

"Let me think about it~"

The dog raised his head, and his eyeballs kept moving under his upper eyelids.

"Now that Master said so, it's true!"

The boy frowned.

"But that was a long time ago. Master, please come with me!"

Liu Chi followed Gou Zi, and the two of them walked out of the weapon refining room and entered the mud house, which was where Ben and Gou Zi lived.

After walking through two wings, Liu Chi finally saw two large beds at the innermost part. Unexpectedly, the bed that Gouzi slept on was as big as Ben's.

"There seems to be something shameful in that cabinet!"

Gouzi pointed at the wall cabinet behind the bed.

"Oh?"

Liu Chi walked towards the middle cabinet that Gou Zi pointed to.

When I walked over here, I found that there was a small corridor between the cabinet and the bed, just enough for one person to stand.

Liu Chi turned around and saw that the dog was still standing there and didn't follow him. Liu Chi immediately understood that the thing inside must have caused him a great psychological trauma.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Chi opened the wall cabinet and saw only some dark-colored clothes hanging there. After a moment of confusion, Liu Chi took out the light stone.

Under the illumination of the light stone, Liu Chi put his entire upper body into the wall cabinet to search.

Liu Chi found a black metal box in the corner. He reached out to take the box out, but found that the box was still too heavy for him.

"Dog! Come here and help Master take out the iron box from here."

After seeing Liu Chi's strength, Gou Zi didn't care about anything else and walked straight in. He used both hands to take out the iron box.

To be on the safe side, Liu Chi and Gou Zi went outside.

Under the illumination of the light stone, the yard was not dark.

Liu Chi squatted down, looked at the iron box carefully, and quickly got the hang of opening the blind box.

The dog hid behind a tree in the yard, with only half of his head exposed, looking at Liu Chi.

Liu Chi didn't ask any questions. The yellow light slowly flowed from his fingertips, and a protective shield invisible to the naked eye appeared in front of him.

Liu Chi didn't think that the iron box would explode, but after seeing the dog's actions, he felt that he should still show respect.

After gently prying open the iron box with a knife, nothing unexpected happened.

As the dust settled, Liu Chi could see clearly what was inside.

A rolled-up scroll and an envelope with the wax still sealed.

Liu Chi took out two items in confusion.

"Master, please don't open that scroll!"

However, the next second Liu Chi subconsciously opened the scroll.

Liu Chi originally thought that what was recorded in it was a secret manual on refining equipment, but as the scroll unfolded and he saw the lace, he was sure that it was a painting.

On the cyan bottom, there is a girl with her hair tied up, and the entire painting is the girl's upper body.

She was wearing an emerald top and had a smile on her side profile. Her eyes seemed to be staring at the person looking at the painting. The details in the painting gave people the illusion that the painting was a living person.

Looking at this painting that was more real than a photo, Liu Chi swallowed his saliva unconsciously, with shock written all over his face.

After rolling up the scroll, Liu Chi turned his attention to the unopened letter.

After letting out a long breath, Liu Chi tore open the letter.

[Today, I found a painter and asked him to draw a picture for me. The painter drew me. What do you think? Am I beautiful?

The Imperial Academy is so boring. I asked you where you were, but you didn’t reply. I was worried that I would never see you again. They all say that refining equipment is a lifelong endeavor. I believe in you and you will achieve great things in the future!

Promise me that you will come to see me, just like we agreed, see you there!

Oh, right! I want to tell you something. My dad told me yesterday that we are moving to a new place. I want to tell you the new address so that you don’t send it to the wrong place.

Siville, North City, Fourth Street, Casey's house.

OK, looking forward to your reply~(. ? ? ?.)

March 5, 8335

Weather: cloudy]

After reading the letter, Liu Chi felt a little depressed. He didn't understand why Ben didn't open the letter.

Through the content of this letter, combined with the personal information in the system pop-up window, Liu Chi roughly understood what kind of story this was.

In 8335, Ben was 15 years old. One year after entering school, he was discovered to have a talent for refining equipment, so he separated from his girlfriend. However, they had some kind of agreement between them, so there must have been an accident.

Liu Chi finally understood why Ben stayed in this palace and had an alcoholic problem.

After some calculations, Liu Chi confirmed that according to the law of getting married and having children at the age of 20, Ben and Qinglin were classmates, so Qinglin's current age is exactly around 56 years old.

It seems that in order to rescue Ben, he went to Sivilly to look for Ben's old lover, the beautiful girl in the scroll.
