"It's you!"
Looking at the man running towards her anxiously, Artoria obviously recognized Guhan. She quickly revealed a frosty expression and said, "Guhan, I've already said that I don't need you to save me. Don't bother me anymore. Even if I can't beat you, I don't need you to save me!"
"…" Guhan was dumbfounded. In fact, this was the first time he met Artoria in real life, and it was also the first time he met her in the Seamless Corridor. He and Artoria hadn't exchanged a single word. How did he suddenly make her hate him?
Guhan wanted to ask for an explanation, but at that moment, the space and time of the entire Seamless Corridor began to change again. When everything returned to normal, Artoria had already disappeared before Guhan's eyes.
"It seems that although this is the first time I met Artoria, it's not the first time Artoria met me!
The Artoria I met belongs to the future to me, and the current me is already a person of the past to Artoria! "Guhan was not stupid. After a short moment of thinking, he understood what had just happened.
He must have met the Artoria from the future. Compared to the Artoria from the past, something must have happened between the two of them. That was why Artoria was so disgusted with him.
This discovery made Gu Han a little happy, but also a little worried.
He was happy that he would definitely meet Artoria again in the future.
On the other hand, he was worried that something would happen to him in the future that caused a conflict between him and Artoria. However, Gu Han believed that he would be able to explain this conflict to Artoria sooner or later.
In the following time, Guhan wandered aimlessly for about a month before finally meeting a living person for the third time.
But what Guhan did not expect was that the person he met this time was Hong Qigong again.
But the Hong Qigong he met this time had become extremely weak. He was lying on the ground like a dead man. When Guhan walked to his side, he barely raised his head and looked at Guhan weakly. "Little brother, do you have a novel to read?"
"Here you go!"
Guhan took out a novel from his dimensional pocket and gave it to Hong Qigong. Hong Qigong instantly became spirited. He picked up Guhan's novel and sat directly on the ground of the Seamless Corridor. He began to carefully read the novel in his hand word by word, completely ignoring Guhan.
But what surprised Guhan was that Hong Qigong's reading speed was extremely slow. After twenty minutes, Hong Qigong had only read two pages of the novel … These two pages added up to less than five hundred words. It took him two to three seconds to read each word, which meant that it would take him twenty minutes to finish.
"This" Two-Dimensional Empire "is too badly written. The protagonist's character is too cowardly, and there's no depth to the writing. It's obvious that it was written by a person who often skipped work!"
Guhan had no idea how Hong Qigong deduced that the author of this "Two-Dimensional Empire" was a writer who often skipped work based on the protagonist's character. But at least Hong Qigong had become normal. He was no longer weak and had become a normal person!
"Thank you, little brother!
If it weren't for your novel, I probably wouldn't have been able to stand the torture here and would have been ready to commit suicide!
Although this novel is really badly written, and the names in it are too strange, as if they are all Japanese names! "Hong Qigong said to Guhan gratefully.
"It's okay!
As long as I can help Senior Qigong! "Guhan said with a smile.
"Hey!
You know my name, so this isn't the first time you've seen me? "
Hearing Guhan say his name, although Hong Qigong was a little surprised, he still spoke very normally.
"That's right, I met you two months ago. At that time, it was all thanks to you explaining the rules of this world to me. Otherwise, I would still be in the dark and not know anything!" Guhan said with a smile.
"I also told you about the rules of this world?"
Hong Qigong blinked his eyes. "It seems that you must have met me in the future. By the way, which era did you meet me in?
How was my life at that time?
Are you living in pain? "
"Of course, Qigong lived happily.
At that time, Qigong was much more energetic than now! "Guhan said with a smile.
"That's good!
It's good that you lived happily in the future!
By the way, did the future me tell you how many years I entered this world? "Hong Qigong continued to ask.
"I think it was more than 700 years!" Guhan replied after thinking for a while.
"What!"
Hearing Guhan's answer, Hong Qigong was instantly stunned. He stayed in place for a few minutes, and his emotions broke down in an instant. He cried like a child.
"It's over!
700 years, I've actually stayed in this sh * tty world for 700 years!
It's over … I've been here for 78 years, and I'm about to commit suicide. I have to stay here for another 632 years … Well … That's not necessarily true. Maybe you'll meet me in the future 1,000 years later … Wow … I don't want to live anymore. I'll just jump down! "After Hong Qigong finished speaking, he made a move to jump down from the corridor.
Seeing this scene, Guhan smiled and did not speak. He just looked at Hong Qigong, who was playing like a child. As a result, Hong Qigong could not continue acting. He looked at Guhan with some annoyance and said, "Kid, why don't you have any sympathy at all?
Seeing an old man like me about to jump down, shouldn't you stop me and give me a novel to comfort me? "
"Since I was able to meet Duke Qigong after 700 years, I believe that you must be living a happy life for at least the next 700 years. Of course, you wouldn't jump down from this corridor!" Gu Han laughed.
"Kid, why are you so cunning? You're even as cunning as my Huang girl. So annoying! It's not interesting at all!" Hong Qigong was angry. He sat in the corridor and said gloomily.
"Please forgive me, Master Qigong!
Take this book as my apology! "
Guhan took out another novel and put it in front of Hong Qigong. Hong Qigong immediately smiled and hid the second novel in his arms. He patted Guhan's shoulder and said, "Good boy, you have a bright future. If I didn't only accept one disciple in my life, I would definitely teach you my Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!"
"Thank you for your kindness, Qigong!"
Guhan said gratefully. At the same time, he asked curiously, "Qigong, when did you enter the Seamless Corridor in the real world?"
"That was 78 years ago … At that time …" Hong Qigong immediately replied.
"That's not right … Qigong, that's not what I meant …" Gu Han hurriedly grabbed Hong Qigong's hand. "I'm not asking you how long you spent in the Seamless Corridor. I'm asking you, when did you enter the Seamless Corridor in the real world?"
"Oh!
That's what you're asking! "
Hong Qigong nodded, but then he quickly shook his head. "This old man truly doesn't know. I've only been in your world for a few days, but I was already sent into this damnable Seamless Corridor."
"Senior, did you meet someone strong enough to defeat you? Someone like me, a native of this world?" Guhan asked.
"No. It's not that I want to say this, but you natives here are just too weak. You have swords in your hands, but you still have to rely on women to fight. It's so embarrassing. If you natives were in my world, I would find a rope and hang you on a tree for three days and three nights. I'd let you know the basic morality of a martial artist!"
"You're right, Qigong!"
Guhan laughed awkwardly. Indeed, from a certain perspective, sword-bearers all had terrible endings.
"But you're different, little fellow. I can see that your body contains Sword Qi, and the strength of this Sword Qi is probably something that even Wang Chongyang couldn't compare to. You're definitely an absolute expert amongst the aboriginals!
What a pity, if I were a few decades earlier, I would definitely fight you here.
It's a pity that I don't think about anything other than reading novels. How can fighting be as interesting as reading novels? "Hong Qigong sighed.
"Then how was Duke Qigong sent into the Seamless Corridor in the past?" Gu Han changed the subject.
"Sigh, I was ambushed by that old poisonous creature!"
Hearing Guhan's question, Hong Qigong immediately became furious. "Back then, I had just come to your world through that crack. I didn't understand anything and walked in the mountains for a few days. I was so hungry that I saw a metal ox running on the ground, so I took the initiative to stop it. I wanted to ask you natives inside for something to eat."
"My goodness, dozens of beautiful women with long swords came down from inside. Without saying a word, they surrounded me and attacked me. They even called me a bandit … What kind of joke is this? I'd rather be a beggar than a thief or a Wokou pirate.
In the end, I got into a fight with these beauties. "
"Although there were a lot of them, and there were a few experts among them, they still weren't a match for me. I casually sent them flying, then swaggered off. Since they weren't willing to give me food, I didn't force them."
"It's just that I'm really hungry. I'm so hungry that I almost want to eat the leaves on a tree. In the end, I ran into that damned Old Poison. He said that we're all in this new world, so he won't harm you. He tricked me into going to the headquarters of the Martyr's Palace. I never would've thought … that Old Poison would actually set up such a huge trap for me. He directly pushed me into this Seamless Corridor!"
