Chapter 485 Rest
Gu Qingshan never thought that the lame Barry was such a person.
This kind of person... I'm afraid even he doesn't know what he will do.
It's even harder for others to guess what he's doing.
Gu Qingshan felt some kind of difficulty.
"Thank you for sharing." He said towards the old man.
"This is nothing, just a little gossip." The old man smiled.
"Then I'll rest."
"Well, I'll call you when I get there."
"Okay, thank you."
The two said goodbye.
Gu Qing Shan entered his room and closed the door.
Too many things have happened recently, and they are all unexpected things. He needs a quiet environment to sort out slowly.
He looked around.
There was nothing in the whole room.
In a confined space, let alone a lamp, there are not even the most basic tables and chairs.
This is an empty house.
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
Ordinarily, an organization like the Tower Guardian Association would not provide a room with such simple conditions.
Just thinking about it, I saw a candle lit from the darkness.
The candle was suspended in the air and floated in front of Gu Qing Shan.
A soft female voice sounded in the room.
"Welcome, distinguished guest."
"Your race is: Human Race."
"According to the principle of original memory, we are extracting the most relaxing environment for you."
The sound disappears.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths.
The female voice appeared again.
“The following environments have been found to make you feel most comfortable:”
"One: Rainbow Bar;"
"Second: the first room on the east side of the second floor of the federal suburban mountain villa;"
"Third: Baihuazong Lancao Temple;"
"Fourth: Room 2203, 22nd Floor, Relief Building, Fifth Block, Free Federation Slum."
"Please choose the environment you like to ensure the comfort of this trip."
Gu Qing Shan stood there and thought for a while.
"Fifth block," he tried.
"Okay, the environment has been determined. This trip and supporting facilities are provided by the Tower Guardian Association. I wish you a pleasant journey."
The female voice fell silent.
The candles also went out.
Darkness returned to the room.
But something seems to have quietly changed.
Gu Qingshan released his spiritual sense again and observed the entire room.
Yes, the room has changed.
This is a cramped long single room.
The whole room is not divided into living room, bedroom and kitchen. Only a bed and a cabinet can be put down, and other things must be piled aside.
Not even a bathroom.
A single chandelier hangs from the ceiling, broken tubes full of dust.
This kind of living environment is considered inferior in the slums of the Federation.
Gu Qing Shan stared at his room.
He stood there for a while, as if remembering something.
The room was silent, as if waiting for him silently.
It wasn't until there was a faint glimmer of light in the room that Gu Qing Shan sighed.
He came to the window and looked out.
The neighborhood is full of dark skyscrapers, with only sporadic lights upstairs.
This is a slum.
Electricity is a precious thing, and people here are used to saving electricity.
The sight is cast into the distance.
The commercial and administrative districts of the capital in the distance are brightly lit.
Gu Qing Shan stayed for a while.
Some old memories came to mind.
Those pictures of childhood and boyhood emerged one after another.
grow up alone.
This word, in some people's mouth, is just a beautiful word to flaunt personality and decorate the facade.
For Gu Qingshan, these four words represent the incomparably real bitterness and loneliness.
He is an orphan.
Everything is up to you.
Gu Qing Shan turned around and walked to the end of the bed.
As soon as he touched it, a bottle of inferior wine appeared in his hand.
Still in a familiar place.
This is the worst distilled spirit, only 5 credits a bottle, and is the favorite of the poor.
The glass bottle is filled with transparent wine, and the wrapping paper outside the bottle has been slightly worn, and the words on it have become blurred.
He had hidden this bottle of wine for more than half a year, ready to open it on his birthday.
——Even such small details fit his memory perfectly. The power of the Tower Guardian Association is truly magical.
No wonder the goddess was nervous because the ship wasn't enough.
Gu Qing Shan opened the wine without thinking.
Raise the bottle, head up and pour it.
strong.
bitter.
A lingering feeling rose and lingered in the chest.
Although it is a low-quality wine, it is full of long-term memories, giving Gu Qing Shan a long-lost feeling.
Thinking of the past, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help shaking his head.
He drank more than half of the entire bottle, sip by sip.
On a whim, Gu Qing Shan walked to the side of the bed and lifted another cover.
Charcoal, long barbecue iron boxes, iron wires for skewering meat, and various condiments are all neatly stacked.
This is the guy Gu Qing Shan used to earn tuition.
He is quite talented in cooking and bartending.
In other words, he has excellent intuition in the creation of taste.
When he was a teenager, the Free Commonwealth's Gourmet Roundup included his recipe for rib roasting ingredients.
This is the highest-level food evaluation system in the federal government.
For this, the Goddess of Justice once awarded him 2 merit points.
That year, Gu Qing Shan was only fifteen years old.
At this age, my peers are still daydreaming.
However, Gu Qingshan has already been able to go to the dark stalls and take charge of the food industry.
If he wasn't too obsessed with mechas and dreamed of going to a university, he would have been a top chef long ago.
Gu Qingshan lit the charcoal fire and fiddled with the barbecue utensils.
He patted the storage bag again, took out some meat, fruits and vegetables spiritual food, handled it carefully, and put it on a wire skewer.
A few minutes later, "Gujia BBQ Stall" opened again.
The constant stream of customers in the past has disappeared.
This time, the owner and the customer were all alone.
wait-
A beautiful shadow flickered in the void and quietly landed on Gu Qingshan's side.
Mountain girl.
"Isn't the son a sword cultivator? He still knows how to cook?"
Shan Nu watched Gu Qing Shan's movements and asked unexpectedly.
"Swordsmanship is the way to kill the enemy, and cooking is the way to make a living." Gu Qingshan said.
As before, he carefully brushed the sauce, put the seasoning, and counted the time to turn the kebabs.
These ingredients come from the resource-rich world of practice, contain spiritual energy, and have been carefully handled by Qin Xiaolou, they are first-class delicious food.
After Gu Qingshan's roasting, the first string of meat soon had an attractive aroma.
Gu Qingshan picked it up and handed it to the mountain girl.
"Try my craft."
"kindness."
The figure of the mountain girl changed from illusory to real.
She changed from a sword spirit to a human woman.
After experiencing the coherence of beings transformed into human beings several times, Shan Nu has completely mastered the mystery of becoming a human being.
She took the skewer of barbecue, put it in front of her nose and sniffed it, and then started to eat it.
"It's delicious."
Shan Nu sighed.
Shan Nu was eating meat skewers and looked at the room curiously.
"Master, is this where you used to live?"
"Yes."
"Very simple." Shan Nu commented.
"When I lived here, sometimes I couldn't even eat."
"Young Master also has such a time of embarrassment?" Shan Nu asked with a smile.
At this time, Gu Qing Shan baked another bunch of waist flowers.
He started to try it.
fragrant!
- It still tastes like this.
Gu Qing Shan gradually revealed a smile.
He picked up the bottle of distilled wine and took a sip.
Wine and BBQ are timeless pairings.
For the next time, Gu Qing Shan forgot everything and immersed himself in the process of cooking skewers.
Finally, he washed his hands and made a soup, which he shared with Shannv.
"The soup tastes good too." Shan Nu took a look at Gu Qing Shan while drinking it.
Gu Qingshan said inexplicably: "What's wrong?"
"If one day, you don't have to fight anymore, will your son open a restaurant?"
"Why don't you have to fight?" Gu Qing Shan asked with a smile.
"If the doomsday catastrophe is all over, there will be no need to fight."
"wrong."
"Where is wrong?"
"I'm always looking for a way to get stronger and never stop for anything."
"But if all the demons disappear, there is no point in making preparations for the battle." Shan Nu said inexplicably.
"Shan Nv, think about those people in the floating world."
Shan Nu recalled it for a while, and said with lingering fears: "I was indeed wrong. It turns out that people's hearts are more terrifying than demons."
There was a sadness on her beautiful face.
Gu Qingshan glanced at her and said with a smile: "It's not necessary to be overly pessimistic. When people's hearts are bad, they can be bad, but when they are good, they can be very good."
"for example?"
"The deceased chose to spend their merits at the last moment to guard the human world."
Shan Nu nodded and fell into thought for a while.
After a while, her brows gradually relaxed.
Gu Qingshan held the soup bowl in his hand and slowly finished the soup.
After enjoying such a wonderful dinner, his tense mind finally relaxed slightly.
Kneading Jue drew some water, washed all the utensils, cleaned them up again according to the previous arrangement, and washed his hands, Gu Qing Shan sat down on the bed.
As he adjusted his breath, he pondered what had happened recently.
I thought that after dealing with the hanging world, I could return to the cultivation world.
Who knew there would be so many surprises out of nowhere.
Extra-dimensional world...
It seems that he needs to reframe his perception of the world.
Gu Qing Shan pondered for a short period of time.
-Then he fell asleep.
Shan Nu listened to his long breathing and quietly looked at his sleeping appearance.
She turned and turned into a long sword suspended in the center of the room.
She protects Gu Qing Shan.
