Chapter 115 He blew up the kitchen
Chapter 115 He blew up the kitchen
Li Tingyun put down the gourd ladle and looked down at Mei Shiyu.
The two were standing too close, and Mei Shiyu tensed up again, his sensitivity to the outside world increased dozens of times. He would react immediately if Li Tingyun made any inappropriate move.
Li Tingyun felt that Mei Shiyu's current appearance resembled the long-eared rabbit he encountered in the wild.
The wind roared and the cranes roared, and the grass and trees were all in war.
But this is not Mei Shiyu's fault.
...It's really no wonder he's not to blame.
In Wang Laoliu's original text, Li Tingyun can be described as "torturing Mei Shiyu in every way".
This includes, but is not limited to, using him as a human punching bag to flatten and sharpen him.
What's most ruthless is that Li Tingyun never considered Mei Shiyu's pure and innocent nature, and never understood the principle that "a scholar can be killed but not humiliated."
He even kicked Mei Shiyu off the high platform in the Taiji Hall, stepped on his back, and broke his spine, forcing him to climb the last step, whether he was kneeling, crawling, or on his stomach.
The original book describes the inhuman torture he inflicted on Mei Shiyu, and the words are filled with exaggerated indifference and ruthlessness.
Even when writing about the inexplicable entanglement between the two of them and Si Wuyou, the author contemptuously and mockingly uses a dark humor specifically designed to disgust people.
That idiot Wang Laoliu completely treated Mei Shiyu like a tool, as if only by letting this character suffer could the villain's ruthlessness and viciousness be truly reflected, making him deserving of death.
This serves to highlight the protagonist group's righteous and noble "Dragon-Slaying Plan".
The author, from a higher-level God's perspective, deliberately created a protagonist who represents justice and paired him with a villain who can never be redeemed. The opposition between good and evil and the prominent contradictions are what make it dramatic!
The details of the original text were imprinted so vividly in Li Tingyun's mind.
He lowered his clenched fist, his knuckles cracking, and the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
A hatred directed at no one was like a raging fire, burning away everything in its path. My heart felt like it was being boiled in water, burning hot, tight, and astringent.
Should he hate the brain-dead version of himself in the book, or should he hate the idiot author Wang Laoliu?
His relationship with Mei Shiyu... it shouldn't have been like that!
Is the Li Tingyun in the original book really himself?!
He would only treat Mei Shiyu that way if he were possessed!
No, even if he is possessed, his body will still scream and resist.
That was the person he fell in love with at first sight.
When Li Tingyun first met Mei Shiyu, they exchanged a fleeting glance, and Li Tingyun felt a strange affection for him.
My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn't help it.
To put it bluntly, maybe this is what they call... love at first sight?
Or to put it simply, it's like a turtle eyeing a mung bean—they've fallen for each other.
Love arises without warning; liking or falling in love with someone sometimes requires no reason.
Fate is something that can't be explained in detail.
It's just a matter of eye contact and heartfelt agreement.
Li Tingyun was an extremely arrogant person. He firmly believed that since he had made a choice, no matter how many times he started over, nothing would change.
He was certain that his judgment in choosing people had always remained consistent. The character in the original book must have been just like the one he was now, having long harbored feelings for Mei Shiyu and, outside the plot and in places unknown to others, longing for that faint, cool fragrance of plum blossoms.
He is uncompromising and uneasy, preferring quality over quantity, and only accepts the fragrance of plum blossoms.
He would hang himself on a tree a thousand times, until the branches bend under the weight; he would even run into a wall but not give up, until the wall collapses with a crash.
He is such a stubborn person.
Stubborn and unyielding, unwavering until death, even to the point of being insane.
But he always yielded to gentleness.
And the person he loved was gentleness itself.
There are very few people in this world who would treat him like Mei Shiyu did.
He could not possibly commit violence in love.
How could anyone in this world commit violence against love?!
Li Tingyun admitted that he was utterly wicked, but refused to admit that he was as rotten as a maggot.
...But what's the point of saying all this now?
Mei Shiyu had already avoided him like the plague.
Li Tingyun stood silently beside Mei Shiyu.
He stood there blankly and solemnly for a long time.
During this time, Mei Shiyu called him twice, but when he did not respond, she gave up.
"Ok?"
Li Tingyun snapped out of her chaotic thoughts and belatedly replied in a low voice, "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
"You...don't stand here."
Mei Shiyu subtly moved away from him, pointed to the stove next to her, and said, "If you're really bored, go burn that pile of firewood and heat up the bottom of the pot."
Mei Shiyu said softly.
He didn't specifically assign tasks to Li Tingyun.
He simply couldn't stand the other person "observing" his every move from such close proximity.
He ended up tearing all the noodles in half.
It was broken into tiny pieces, section by section.
Even a dog wouldn't eat this kind of batter; how can you possibly satisfy him?
“It’s alright,” Li Tingyun said, stopping him as he was about to start over. “This is fine as it is… I’m really hungry, I can eat anything.”
Mei Shiyu: "...You said it yourself."
Li Tingyun: "Yes, I said it, after-sales service included!"
"..."
Mei Shiyu asked, "What does 'after-sales service included' mean?"
Li Tingyun said, "The meaning of 'after-sales service' is... I will take responsibility for every word you have said."
Mei Shiyu's fingertips trembled, and she lowered her eyes, saying, "I don't believe it."
Li Tingyun never expected that he would actually respond to her seemingly nonsensical remark.
I couldn't help but chuckle. "Believe it or not, if I were you, I wouldn't believe it either."
"There are too many bad people in the world, and I, in my humble opinion, am the worst of them all..."
"Of course you can't easily trust me, and you can't trust anyone else either, or you'll suffer a great loss."
Li Tingyun filled the stove completely with dry firewood, leaving no gaps, clearly indicating that he had never lit a fire or cooked a meal before.
Mei Shiyu couldn't help but remind him, "You'll smother the flames like that."
Li Tingyun narrowed his eyes slightly. "No, watch me."
He stretched out his arms freely, scooping up a swirling wisp of ethereal energy from the void.
At this moment, his five senses were clear and his dantian was stable. He could effortlessly capture every wisp of flowing spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as well as the surging chaotic true essence hidden in the underworld abyss.
Li Tingyun freely mobilized the vast and boundless true energy stored within his body, leisurely feeling the demonic energy and spiritual power intertwining and flowing between his fingers like dragons. He slowly closed his five fingers, causing them to gather into a cluster, the two becoming one.
He toyed with the murky gas that contained boundless power in his palm.
Gradually, the turbid air began to generate dense, blood-red streams of light from within.
ready.
Upon seeing this, Mei Shiyu suddenly recalled his great achievements in tirelessly and relentlessly exploding the alchemy furnace.
A deep sense of worry arose spontaneously.
Li Tingyun: Conquer! Dominate! Control! Slaughter!!! Ah, this long-lost sense of power has finally returned.
Mei Shiyu: "It's just lighting firewood, please don't use too much force."
Li Tingyun's emperor-like engine suddenly stalled.
Looking at Mei Shiyu with clear eyes, he said, "I know you don't need to worry."
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang!
With a deafening explosion, the ground shook, a strong wind arose, and a mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
The thick smoke gradually dissipated; the kitchen was gone, the inn was gone, the entire mural space... was gone.
In the blink of an eye, it was razed to the ground.
Mei Shiyu stared blankly at the ruins before her.
Small pebbles, flying everywhere, clattered and hit the golden aura surrounding him.
Thanks to his experience and foresight.
