Chapter 331 New Temporary Word Spirit (4000 words)
"What do you mean by feeling lost? Can't I even enjoy the scenery?" Lu Mingfei said without turning his head.
Lu Mingfei had long been accustomed to the little devil who always appeared out of nowhere. He counted on his fingers that Lu Mingze would appear soon. Whenever he was needed, he would automatically appear, just like Nobita's Doraemon.
The only difference is that using this Doraemon is not free. If you go into debt too much, you will need to spend your life to clear your debt.
But Lu Mingfei's mentality has changed now. In his previous life, he lived frugally with Lu Mingze, but in the end, he still spent three quarters of his life. In this life, he might as well use Lu Mingze more, so that he wouldn't feel so bad when he paid with his life. So whether he was chasing Liu Miaomiao or Su Xiaoqiang, Lu Mingfei did not refuse Lu Mingze's help.
But then again, this time Lu Mingze showed up later than Lu Mingfei had expected. Lu Mingfei thought that Lu Mingze would jump out and blackmail him when Chen Wenwen was just hospitalized.
"Yes, yes, no matter what you do, how can I not be accurate? You are my brother after all."
Lu Mingze rested his hands on the backrest of the front seat, smiling innocently and romantically, his little feet in lace socks swaying back and forth, and he was humming a song leisurely and contentedly.
Lu Mingfei was still waiting for Lu Mingze to mention Chen Wenwen first, but Lu Mingze didn't seem anxious at all. After waiting for a long time, Lu Mingfei finally couldn't stand it anymore and turned around and said venomously: "Actually, you are my sister, right?"
Lu Mingze was stunned, turned around and looked at Lu Mingfei with interest: "What do you mean?"
"You look like some of the girls I know, just like Nuo...
Lu Mingfei originally wanted to say that Lu Mingze's unhurried look was just like Nuonuo, but the moment the image of the little witch emerged in his mind, the words on his lips took an urgent turn and he instantly changed his words to "just like a girl".
He continued to criticize Lu Mingze: "Besides, every time you come out, you wear clothes that are not sure whether they are children's clothes or women's clothes, and your voice is like a girl's."
"My voice hasn't developed yet. Brother, you can't expect me, who looks like a child, to have a duck voice like you, right? And you already have so many girls around you, aren't you satisfied?"
Lu Mingze looked down at his clothes, then looked at Lu Mingfei and said seriously, "If you insist on having the standard outfit of a Japanese light male protagonist, with a sister, a house, and busy parents, I can wear women's clothes and tie my hair into twin ponytails to see you next time."
"Pah, pah, pah, don't pollute my eyes."
Lu Mingfei did not continue drinking and arguing with Lu Mingze, because he knew that if they continued like this, the two of them would probably talk for three days and three nights. He did not have so much free time to chat with Lu Mingze, as he had something important to ask Lu Mingze.
"Why did you suddenly show up today? I thought you were detained in Portugal because you didn't have a passport?"
"I went on a business trip all the way overseas, and you didn't let me rest when I got back? Brother, this is exploiting child labor."
Lu Mingze shrugged and gave a wicked smile: "How about it, brother? Does it feel good to have two girlfriends? Do you feel like an emperor when you hug them left and right?"
Lu Mingfei didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Mingze's nonsense, so he chose to bypass the topic directly and said, "Let me ask you, what is the matter with Chen Wenwen's illness? In the previous life, Chen Wenwen was obviously healthy. Why did Chen Wenwen suddenly get such a serious disease as lupus erythematosus in this life?"
Lu Mingze did not answer the question directly, but turned his head and looked over Lu Mingfei's shoulder at the colorful neon lights of the buildings outside the window.
"Brother, do you remember?" Lu Mingze said softly, "When we first returned to this world, on that rainy night on the viaduct, I said something to you."
He blinked, taking in all the city light reflected in his eyes, and looked at Lu Mingfei again: "The world is actually a huge Nibelungen, and there is more than one Nibelungen in this world."
The traffic lights at the intersection flickered, the bus swayed, and it turned like a whale entering the Gulf Stream. Lu Mingfei stared at the faint light in Lu Mingze's pupils, calmed down and asked slowly:
"So, what you mean is that the world we are in now, although it is exactly the same as I remember, is not my original world. It is just two different timelines of a parallel universe?"
There was a chill in this answer. Lu Mingfei stared at the little devil intently, hoping to get a negative answer from him.
Because if he really went back to the 2006 timeline that he had experienced, then everything he did would make up for the loss of his adolescence, redeem his regrets about Eri...
If he simply traveled to another timeline, even if he tried his best to save Eri, what would be the point? His Eri would never come back.
However, Lu Mingze neither confirmed nor denied Lu Mingfei's statement: "That depends on how you look at it, brother. If we just compare the differences between the two worlds, then the world we were in before is indeed different from the world we are in now."
He paused and continued, "In the original world, you were just a very unlucky kid. The first girl you liked was snatched away in public, and the second girl you liked was your sister-in-law. You also missed the girl who had eyes only for you. It was quite tragic.
But in this world, you are the core of the crowd. You are electricity, you are light, you have your own dazzling aura, even Chu Zihang is not as popular as you. What's more, you have a harem openly, and your life in the future will only be more exciting than now. From this point of view, these two worlds are indeed not the same world.
But if you ask me if there is any parallel universe, I can tell you clearly that there is no parallel universe or different timeline. The world we are in now is your only past. Nothing has happened yet. Whether it is missing or regretful, nothing has happened yet, so you still have time to save everything. "
Lu Mingze's words were like a reassurance, making Lu Mingfei feel relaxed instantly.
As long as this world remains the same as before... then his efforts are meaningful.
Seeing Lu Mingfei's serious expression suddenly relax, Lu Mingze smiled silently and changed the subject lightly: "Brother, is this all you want to know? It's rare for me to come out. If there's nothing else you want to ask, then I'll leave."
After Lu Mingze's reminder, Lu Mingfei came to his senses and realized that he still had to ask Lu Mingze how to cure Chen Wenwen.
He had actually secretly used the phrase "Don't die" to Chen Wenwen in private, but he didn't know whether it was because Chen Wenwen's current illness was not life-threatening or what, but the phrase "Don't die" did not work on Chen Wenwen.
After hearing Lu Mingfei ask how to cure Chen Wenwen's disease, Lu Mingze shrugged and said, "Isn't it very simple to cure this disease?"
Lu Mingfei quickly asked how to treat it. Lu Mingze spread his hands and said, "Lupus erythematosus is a systemic immune disease. To put it bluntly, it is because human evolution is not perfect, which leads to genetic defects. Since it is a genetic problem, then why not help Chen Wenwen strengthen her genes?"
Lu Mingfei was also stunned: "Strengthen genes? How to strengthen them?"
He did know about the Nibelung Project, which could strengthen the genes of hybrids by replacing dragon blood. When he was in Portugal before, Father Bernardo also used similar alchemical techniques to replace dragon blood, thereby achieving the purpose of strengthening his body.
But he couldn't possibly change Shen Chenwenwen's dragon blood or something like that... Even if he wanted to change it, among the people he knew, only the vice-president would perform the alchemical surgery of the Nibelungen Project.
As if he could see what Lu Mingfei was thinking, Lu Mingze smiled wickedly and said, "Brother, you don't have to think so complicated. It's actually very simple to just strengthen the genes. There is no disease that can't be cured by one S-level gene. If there is, then use two."
"S-level gene?"
Lu Mingfei chewed the measure word "发" for a few seconds before he suddenly realized the salty taste in Lu Mingze's words.
"Damn it! How come you, a little kid, think about this kind of thing every day?" Lu Mingfei cursed angrily.
"Brother, don't you want to?" The little devil said innocently, "Which night have you not fantasized about having sex with Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang? It's just that they are not yet adults..."
Lu Mingfei's face turned red after being touched: "Can the things of scholars be called sexual fantasies? That's called the beautiful imagination of adolescence! ... And Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang are my girlfriends, so what's wrong with thinking about it?"
"Then wouldn't it be great if you could chase Chen Wenwen? That way, not only can you think about her every day, but you can also help her strengthen her genes. Anyway, you have embraced both sides, so this one won't make a difference. By then, the three most beautiful girls in Shilan Middle School will be placed in your harem, and you will be the legend of Shilan Middle School forever. Chu Zihang and Zhao Menghua are no match for you."
"Hey, hey, hey, could you please stop making me sound like the protagonist of an asshole harem manga?"
"But it's you who's flirting with others." Lu Mingze sighed, "If you really don't like Chen Wenwen, why would you come to accompany her every day? If Chen Wenwen doesn't have any feelings for you, why would she look forward to your coming every day?"
Lu Mingfei wanted to refute Lu Mingze with disdain, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn't think of any words to refute. He was actually choked by Lu Mingze's words.
Lu Mingze continued, "Brother, you may think that you should have let go of Chen Wenwen a long time ago. You let Chen Wenwen go when you invited her to a candlelight dinner at Aspasia Restaurant a long, long time ago.
But brother, have you ever thought that maybe you have never let it go. After all, you just chose the one you like more out of the two girls you both like. If you have the chance to have both...will you let go of one of them?"
Lu Mingfei found that every time he debated with Lu Mingze, he would be led astray by Lu Mingze's twisted logic. He suddenly felt annoyed and didn't want to argue with Lu Mingze anymore. He just said:
"Stop talking in circles and just tell me how to cure Chen Wenwen's lupus. Stop talking to me about S-level genes and give me a more practical solution."
"Enhancing genes is obviously feasible."
The little devil snapped his fingers beside his face and said, "Forget it, forget it. Since you are still a little Hina, I won't force you. The temporary word spirit this time is 'The Prince's Kiss'. The effect is similar to Don't Die. It can cure most of the opponent's illnesses and injuries, but it doesn't have a powerful ability like Don't Die that can directly pull people back from the brink of death."
Unlike the previous times, Lu Mingze gave him a new temporary word spirit this time. Although this word spirit sounded a bit strange, every time Lu Mingze gave him a word spirit, it would eventually solve the problem well, so Lu Mingfei didn't doubt it.
"Can Chen Wenwen be cured by just reciting this spell?"
"No, it's not enough to say it, it's enough to do it."
Lu Mingfei was a little confused: "Did you do it?"
“That’s right.” The little devil swung his legs gently and tilted his head to look at Lu Mingfei. “You can’t heal someone by just reciting a spell. The princes in fairy tales have to kiss the princesses before they can wake them up from their coma.”
The Prince's Kiss…The Prince's Kiss. In the fairy tale, Snow White who ate the Queen's poisoned apple and Sleeping Beauty who was cursed by the black witch both spat out the poisoned apple or lifted the curse after being kissed by the prince.
Lu Mingfei suddenly understood what Lu Mingze meant by "It only works after you do it"... He wanted to learn from the prince in the fairy tale...
Lu Mingze was still laughing: "How is it, brother? This word spirit is much easier to implement than strengthening genes, right?"
"Damn it? Are you kidding me?" If Lu Mingfei hadn't considered that he couldn't beat this little devil, he might have already put his hands around his neck.
"I can't let you use the convenient Word Spirit for free every time, right? You haven't patronized my business for a long time. This time I let you see something interesting, so just treat it as some interest from all my plug-ins. Anyway, there are two ways to cure Chen Wenwen. One is to strengthen the genes and the other is for you to be a prince. As for which one you choose, it's up to you."
Lu Mingze spread out his hands anyway, with a dead pig expression that was not afraid of boiling water, and four words were written on his face: "Use it if you like, don't use it if you don't."
Lu Mingfei looked at Lu Mingze's mean face and wanted to catch the little devil and punish him with the seven wolves on behalf of his father. But then he thought that Lu Mingze was only his brother in name, and they might not be of the same blood...
Lu Mingfei was still thinking about the temporary words that Lu Mingze had given him when the little devil stood up from his seat: "Okay, brother, this life discussion ends here. I'm going to go on vacation."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't walk so fast. Do you really want to consider getting me a new Word Spirit? At worst, I can just be more straightforward when I take care of your business next time."
However, there was obviously no room for discussion on this issue, because before Lu Mingfei could finish his words, Lu Mingze bowed and disappeared.
At this time, the bus also stopped at the station, and the broadcast in the car sounded: "Shilan Middle School Station, here we are."
