chapter 38 - The Second World (1)
As soon as he opened his eyes, he was treated as food. Yu Tong and the system were a little confused.
Two boys, one big and one small, held the egg and discussed whether to eat spicy roasted chicken or sweet and sour roasted chicken.
Yu Tong was still trying to shake his body, wanting to get out of the egg quickly.
Now he didn't think about getting out anymore, he just wanted to be born later.
This time he entered a world of fantasy novels.
There are fantasy elements such as magic, knights, dragons and ancient gods.
The male protagonist Ye Yong is a time traveler.
He was a thirty-year-old office worker who died suddenly from staying up late to work overtime. He traveled to another world and became a genius magic girl.
Yu Tong had seen the theme of men traveling through women in novels before.
Because he really didn't want to fall in love with a gay man, Ye Yong decided to be single for life.
But his damn protagonist halo worked, and all the handsome men he met around him would fall in love with him in the end.
The beautiful hero had to start a salted fish life of avoiding the pursuit of handsome men while learning magic and farming to support the family.
Yu Tong's soul went into the system space and smoked with the small light ball.
After reading the introduction of the article, he blew a smoke ring, 'The copywriting didn't mention the CP, who did the hero end up with? '
[The whole process was ambiguous, and the ending was beautiful. ]
'Why are there so many women who like Ye Yong? Is this considered Danmei, romance or lesbian? '
[No CP. ]
'……'
Yu Tong couldn't understand this novel.
However, the hero's personality seems to be good, cheerful and generous, just and brave.
He didn't get too close to men just because his soul was a man. He didn't run over to peek into the women's bathroom just because his body was a woman.
He didn't have a harem and was not vulgar. The first impression he gave Yu Tong was much better than Su Feng in the previous world.
This time, Yu Tong's target of the mission is a priest in a small border town, a villain who appeared in the early part of the novel, named Chen Xi.
Chen Xi looks decent, but he is actually a gentleman.
He pretends to take in orphans, but secretly brainwashes them, making them willing to become little slaves.
Then he sells these orphans to nobles and perverted alchemists as playthings or experimental subjects.
The male protagonist Ye Yong, who is dressed as a little loli, originally had a happy family. His mother is a laundry worker and his father is a carpenter.
Although they are poor, they treat Ye Yong very well.
Both of them are devout believers and often take Ye Yong to the church to pray.
When Ye Yong was ten years old, the protagonist's halo gradually took effect, and he became more and more beautiful.
After a prayer, Chen Xi saw Ye Yong's beauty and thought he could be sold for a good price.
So one night, Chen Xi brought his lackeys, killed Ye Yong's parents, and burned his house.
He was forced to become an orphan and taken back to the orphanage for brainwashing. Ye Yong suffered inhuman torture in the orphanage.
The system shook its head, [What a beastly villain, I want to beat him just by reading the original text. ]
Yu Tong nodded in agreement and continued to read.
The following plot is about how the male protagonist with adult thinking saves the poor little people in the orphanage and how to outsmart the hypocritical villain Chen Xi.
In the end, Ye Yong kills Chen Xi and successfully escapes from the orphanage with his friends. A group of children set out on a journey to the capital to find the archbishop to sue the bastard nobles.
————
After Yu Tong watched the relevant clips, he suddenly heard a quarrel between several people outside.
It seems that the two boys holding the eggs had a conflict with others.
A new boy who appeared shouted in a childish voice: "Stinky fox, you're stealing eggs again!"
Yu Tong was stunned, 'What is a stinky fox? '
The system was also confused, [I don't know, the original text is written from Ye Yong's perspective. From the perspective of time, the hero is 20 years younger than the villain. The villain is now 10 years old, and the hero is still 10 years away from being born. ]
'Then what's the use of the original text in my hand? '
[It can be used to see the background of the big world, or as a novel to relieve boredom. And time is not immobile, it will be useful sooner or later. ]
Yu Tong:...
It makes sense.
The three words "stinky fox" seem to be the thunder point of the two villain brothers.
The boy holding Yu Tong's egg immediately rushed forward and started fighting with the others, "Just wait, someone will come to adopt me and my brother soon."
"Foxes are coquettish and smelly, no one wants stinky foxes!"
"This is what the dean said, when the day of God's coming, a noble lord will adopt us and let us be young masters."
"You are lying! Someone come quickly, the fox is stealing eggs again!"
"You are not allowed to snatch! Brother, help me get the roasted chicken back!"
The two boys who were quarreling sounded about seven or eight years old.
The slightly older young villain Chen Xi tried to persuade them to stop fighting in a good manner.
This is an orphanage with many children. A few children heard the noise and ran over to join in the fun.
The big egg Yu Tong became a hot commodity, and was snatched by a group of children.
Yu Tong was so nauseous that he hid in the system space and vomited.
He had just vomited twice when the system suddenly jumped up, [Fuck Yu! Your egg is broken! 】
‘? ? ? ’
What are you talking about?
Yu Tong looked out and saw that he had changed from a big egg to a palm-sized, wet chick.
Because it had no soul, the chick lay on the ground motionless as if it was dead. There were still eggshell fragments stuck on its body, which looked particularly pitiful.
There were seven or eight children around the chick, both boys and girls, all of them were covered in dirt. The youngest was five or six years old, and the oldest was twelve or thirteen years old.
A little boy with a mushroom head squatted beside him and cried loudly, shouting, "The chick is dead, you dropped the chick to death!"
The group of children who were making trouble looked at each other, and just then two nuns passed by not far away, and the children immediately scattered with a whoosh.
The mushroom-headed boy picked up the chick and looked at the young villain beside him with sobs.
Yu Tong returned to his body, opened his eyes with difficulty, and looked at Chen Xi in front of him.
The future villain was just ten years old at this time. Due to long-term malnutrition, his body was thinner than his peers. There was no blush on his little face with some baby fat.
His slightly long hair fell to his shoulders, and the white hair was slightly swayed by the wind.
His eyes were narrow and the tails of his eyes were raised. His golden eyes were slightly narrowed, and he looked a little feminine.
Yu Tong understood why those naughty kids called Chen Xi a stinky fox.
He really looked like an anthropomorphic little fox cub.
The system poked its head out, [Oh, fox-like little shota, let the myna pinch your face. ]
Its voice was too obscene, and Yu Tong was too lazy to pay attention to it.
He tilted his head and stared at the boy, and the boy tilted his head and stared at him.
Chen Xi, there is also the word Chen in his name.
The friend of the system said that there will be a soul leaving the previous world with him.
Combined with the information he got before, Yu Tong felt that the boy in front of him was probably his brother Chen.
The little mushroom head handed the chick to Chen Xi, and the villain stretched out his finger and poked the chick with a sad face.
Yu Tong was unable to control his body yet and did not give any response.
Seeing that the chick did not respond, the young villain's eyes turned red.
He touched the mushroom head's head, "It's okay, brother. Although the chick is dead, its body is still hot. Let's roast it and eat it while it's hot, okay?"
System:? ? ?
Yu Tong:...?
The little mushroom head nodded heavily.
Chen Xi took the chick, took out a knife and prepared to cut its head and bleed it.
Seeing that he was about to die at the speed of light, Yu Tong struggled to raise his little wings, "Wait a minute, don't kill me!"
As soon as he said this, several people present were stunned.
The system said, [How can you talk? ]
Yu Tong was even more confused than it, 'How do I know, isn't this the body you chose for me? '
[No, it's random. 】
The two villain brothers looked at each other.
Mushroom-head asked in confusion: "Brother, the chicken just spoke, should we still eat it?"
Yu Tong glared at him fiercely.
Little bastard, all he knows is eating.
Chen Xi held Yu Tong and looked him over, "No, brother, only monsters can talk in this world. It's not a chicken, it's a baby that a monster left in the chicken coop."
"Then brother, can we still eat it?"
"Of course not."
Before Yu Tong could feel relieved, he heard Chen Xi say seriously: "A lowest-level monster baby can be sold for fifty silver coins. One silver coin can buy a roast chicken, five eggs and two loaves of bread. We raise it for a few days, and if it looks good, we can sell it for more money."
Yu Tong:...
You are also a little bastard.
Mushroom-head's eyes lit up.
He stared at Yu Tong, "How many days do you want to raise it?"
"I don't know. This is my first time seeing a monster. Let's try raising it for ten days. If it doesn't work, we'll sell it."
Chen Xi looked at the chicken in his hand, his eyes were so gentle that they were almost sickening.
"You are a monster cub after all. I can't keep calling you little chicken. How about this, you call it gold coin from now on. It sounds so cute and likable."
Yu Tong:...
No, I don't like it.
————
In the eyes of the villain brothers, Yu Tong is not a complete life.
He is about 50 roast chickens, 250 eggs and 100 pieces of bread.
The two of them were afraid that their gold coins would be robbed, so they wrapped Yu Tong with handkerchiefs all the way and pinched his bird's mouth to prevent him from speaking.
Seeing that the host's face was getting more and more distorted, the system advised him: [These two kids are hungry, don't be angry with them. ]
Yu Tong was not angry, he was just thinking about how to deal with the villain brothers.
I don’t know if the orphanage he is in now is the one that sells children in the original text.
The two villain brothers seem to be very unwelcome in the orphanage.
On the way back, Yu Tong could always hear someone making a ‘hush’ sound to the two brothers.
“Stinky foxes with body odor!”
“Foxes shouldn’t wear human clothes, take off their clothes!”
“What are you looking at, and you want to steal my things?”
The tender childish voice sounded particularly harsh, and Yu Tong could hear the little mushroom head sobbing.
Chen Xi comforted his brother and told him not to pay attention to those people. He held Yu Tong’s hand, but unconsciously tightened it slightly.
After more than ten minutes, the surroundings finally quieted down.
The little mushroom head took a basket and spread thick cloth inside it as a nest for the chicks.
Chen Xi took out the chicken gold coins and carefully put them into the bamboo basket.
The handkerchief wrapped around his body was taken off, and Yu Tong finally saw the surrounding scene clearly.
This should be the dormitory for children, with bunk beds. The room is not big, with three beds on each side, and a total of twelve children living there.
In the middle of each bed is a tall and narrow rectangular iron cabinet, which is divided into upper and lower layers, and is filled with daily necessities.
In the middle aisle, a row of small desks are neatly placed, and two people share a desk. The table is messy and full of things.
The wooden walls of the dormitory are old and yellow, and the floor makes a creaking sound when walking.
I don’t know if it is a problem with the architectural style of this world, or if this orphanage is special. The roof of the dormitory is built very high. It is estimated that there is still a distance of two or three meters from the upper bunk to the roof.
In contrast, the swaying small light bulb in the middle of the roof looks a bit funny.
There is no privacy in the dormitory. The two brothers did not take the gold coin chicken to other places, probably because they felt that other places were not safe.
Their beds were on the right side of the room, the innermost beds 11 and 12.
Chen Xi, who lived in bed 12, climbed to the upper bunk first.
The little mushroom-headed man on the lower bunk handed over the small basket, and Chen Xi stuffed the basket into his quilt and placed it against the wall.
The two brothers seemed very busy. They had just settled the chickens and were ready to go out.
Before leaving, the two climbed to the upper bunk together and reluctantly said goodbye to Yu Tong.
The mushroom-headed man tapped Yu Tong's little head with his fingers, drooling, "Fifty roast chickens, we have to go out for class and won't be back until five in the evening. You are alone at home, take care of yourself, you know, one hundred loaves of bread."
Chen Xi took out a cloth bag from under the pillow at the head of the bed, and there was a piece of hard bread in it.
He scratched the bread hard, scraped off a bunch of crumbs, and put them in the basket.
"Gold Coin, you can eat these when we are not at home."
Yu Tong has been numbed by their series of operations, and stared at the bread crumbs in front of him.
Seeing the chicken that looks like a monster, it lay in the basket with its head down, not talking or moving.
Chen Xi asked worriedly: "Gold Coin, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Yu Tong raised his head, opened his beak and made a soft male voice, "I can understand what you said, and I know that you wanted to make me into a roast chicken when I was still an egg. I also know that you just discussed how to fatten me up and sell me for a good price."
"I am not feeling uncomfortable, I am just thinking about how to do this world that is so indifferent in the future. Forget it, you can go, I will eat well at home."
The two children were stunned, and the little mushroom head scratched his head awkwardly, grinning at Yu Tong.
Chen Xi turned his head away uncomfortably, and a faint blush appeared on his tender and pale cheeks.
Observing the reactions of the two, Yu Tong felt a little relieved.
They will feel guilty, and probably still have a conscience.
The nun's urging voice sounded outside the door, and the little mushroom-head jumped off the bed and ran out.
As soon as his brother left, Chen Xi, who had just had a gentle face, immediately turned cold.
He pinched Yu Tong's head and threatened him in a cold tone like a little adult.
The latest novels are first published in 69 Shuba!
"Since you can understand human language, I'll just explain it to you. When we're not in the dormitory, don't make any noise or run around. If you stay in our hands, you'll be sold to be a noble's pet at most. But not everyone in this orphanage knows the value of monsters."
"If you're caught by someone else, being killed and eaten is the best outcome. Some things here love to kill living things bit by bit. If you don't want to die, just hide quietly in your bed, got it, gold coins."
His expression changed too quickly, and the system that was just calling the little shota with a s- ... Chen Xi pulled the quilt inconspicuously, covering the gold coin chicken tightly.
Through the gap in the quilt, Yu Tong saw a strong middle-aged nun walking into the dormitory.
The little mushroom head who went out first, grabbed the door frame with both hands and looked inside.
Chen Xi apologized while turning over to get out of bed.
The middle-aged nun suddenly grabbed his ankle, pulled him off the bed, and threw him heavily on the ground.
This fall was not light, and Chen Xi didn't get up for a long time.
The nun grabbed his collar skillfully and dragged him out of the bedroom like a corpse.
Yu Tong watched the whole process and felt that he was a little pitiful.
The door slammed shut, and the room fell into silence again.
Telepathy is a permanent prop, and the prop is still effective even if you enter a new world.
Yu Tong felt it carefully for a while and found that there was not much emotional fluctuation in his heart.
It seems that being treated roughly is commonplace for the little villain.
Yu Tong only has ten days.
After ten days, the villain and his brother will sell him out.
Even if Yu Tong returns to the villain by suicide, the two children will exchange him for silver coins.
The system also worried, [Why don't you be intimate with them more and see if you can improve your favorability? ]
Yu Tong frowned, 'It's useless to be intimate, Chen Xi and the others are in a difficult situation. They should need a helper more than a pet. '
'Only after proving that my value is far more than fifty roasted chickens, the little villain will consider talking about feelings with me.
The system was very worried, [Xiao Yu, how come you still think of people's hearts so dark after a lifetime? People are emotional animals, and they don't just have interests in their hearts. If you spend more time with the two children, they might treat him as a child. ]
Yu Tong didn't say anything.
He didn't believe it.
————
After confirming that no one would return to the dormitory for a while, Yu Tong ran out of the quilt and explored the dormitory while chatting with the system.
[Now there is good news and bad news. The good news is that the villain's deviation value is 10/100, with an initial value of 10 points. ]
'Where did it come from? '
[Maybe before you came, the little villain met someone and was reformed by him. But the reformation effect was not good enough, so this is all. ]
Yu Tong stood by the bed and looked down, not knowing how to get out of bed. He walked along the edge of the bed a few times and checked Chen Xi's bed.
'What's the bad news? '
[My records show that the little villain has killed someone. But he was only seven years old when he killed someone. He was too young and did not meet the minimum age stipulated by the law of this world, so the main system did not punish him. ]
The system sighed a little, [It feels like the orphanage is not a good place. A seven-year-old child was forced to kill people. Alas. By the way, Xiao Yu, how old were you when you started killing people?]
Yu Tong stuck his head under Chen Xi's pillow and took out an old little brooch from it. 'I can't remember the exact time, but it was before I was ten years old. ’
[Why so early? What does your family do?]
‘We do some business like organ trafficking, human trafficking, forced prostitution, etc. People in our area are all doing this. The situation of our neighbors is similar to that of my family.’
[? ? ? ]
Yu Tong stepped on the brooch with his little paw and looked at it carefully.
The brooch was made of gold, with a fox face engraved on the front, and it was hard to tell what it represented. The needle on the back was rusty and had blood stains that had dried for a long time.
Chen Xi treasured this brooch very much and wrapped it tightly with several layers of handkerchiefs.
Yu Tong wrapped the brooch with great effort and pushed his head back under the pillow.
The system came back to its senses from the shock and poked its head out.
[Hey, Xiao Yu! Are you upset to suddenly separate from your lover of 20 years? Do you miss your boyfriend? ]
‘It’s okay, I didn’t really break up with him, isn’t Chen Xi? ’
The system stared at Yu Tong for a long while, and asked hesitantly: [Actually, I’m curious about one thing, do you really like your brother Chen, or are you pretending to like him? ]
‘Really like’
[Do you have a lover’s feeling for him? ]
‘…Yes’
The system narrowed its eyes, [You are not right, you are lying! ]
Yu Tong flapped his little chicken wings and jumped onto the metal cabinet beside the bed.
[You didn’t treat him as a boyfriend, why did you marry him and sleep with him, and also hype up the CP heat? ]
‘I do what he likes, and he will like me more. ’
The little yellow chicken on the cabinet twisted left and right, and stomped its feet excitedly, ‘And sleeping with him is really comfortable. My head is floating, and it’s more comfortable than taking drugs. ’
[What tiger and wolf words are you talking about, you are starting to be shameless. ]
‘Brother Chen in this world is only ten years old. We have to wait another □□ years before we can be together. ’
System:?
[You and Chen Xi haven’t even started to get along, and we don’t even have a foundation for love, but you decided to sleep with him in the future? ]
‘He is Brother Chen. Brother Chen and I have a good relationship and can sleep together. ’
[Is this the same thing? Yun Mingchen spent so much money to hire a psychologist, but it was all in vain! In vain! ]
[Alas, I suddenly feel that the villain in the previous world is so pitiful. Every word you said about loving him was a lie to him. You just treat him as a substitute for Brother Chen. It’s wrong to lie to people’s feelings, Xiao Yuyu. ]
‘I like him. ’
[Bullshit, before you knew he was Brother Chen, you were still playing tricks on him. As soon as you heard that he was Brother Chen, your attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. You helped him wholeheartedly, and cried and acted like a spoiled child to him. ]
[I'll ask you, if after you two get married, you suddenly find out that he is not Brother Chen, but someone else is Brother Chen. Will you abandon him and run to be with someone else? ]
Yu Tong stood there blankly for a long time, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
The system took out a handkerchief to wipe the non-existent tears, [Woo, woo, what a poor villain, being treated as a souvenir, a souvenir of Brother Chen. ]
Yu Tong felt stuffy in the chest because of what it said.
Thinking °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° of Yun Mingchen hugging him and kissing him, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Yu Tong said nothing, silently fluttered from bed No. 12 to bed No. 10, and continued to explore this dormitory.
The system secretly glanced outside and saw the host pursed his lips, with a little red eyes.
After walking around the bed for a few times, Yu Tong found that this dormitory was co-ed.
On bed No. 10, there were little girls' bras, flower hairpins, and a tattered little bear doll.
The dormitory conditions were very simple, with no partitions or curtains installed. There was only a metal cabinet between the beds, and the situation of bed No. 10 could be easily seen from the other beds.
Seeing that the atmosphere was too awkward, the system coughed lightly to change the subject, [The villain is 10 years old, already a big kid. Isn't it not good to keep boys and girls living together? At least give the little girl a curtain. ]
Yu Tong took over the conversation and discussed with it, as if nothing had just happened.
This time it was the system's turn to feel uncomfortable.
It felt that Yu Tong was probably sick, and his little head couldn't handle many very ordinary feelings.
They had been bound for more than 20 years, living together day and night, and the system was no longer as afraid of him as before.
It just felt that Xiao Yu was a little pitiful.
Yu Tong jumped in front of the little bear doll, stuck his head into the bear's cracked belly, and took out a small note from it.
There was a line of small words written on the note, the font was neat and tidy, and it was somewhat similar to printed words.
It looked like it was written by an adult, but also a bit like it was written by a child.
[#The devil is hidden in the body of the child in bed No. 3, this is our secret. Lily is the bravest child, only you can save the world-Little Bear Warrior. #]
Yu Tong and the system looked at each other in confusion, and both looked at the teddy bear in front of them.
The little bear is the most common teddy bear, about the size of a pillow. The little yellow chicken, which is only the size of a palm, looks particularly petite in front of the little bear doll.
Everyone looked left and right, but they didn't see anything special about the teddy bear.
After searching for a while on the bed of the little girl Lily, Yu Tong inserted the chicken head under the mattress and saw a diary hidden tightly.
For the little chicken, the mattress was too thick and heavy. He didn't pull out the diary, and almost crushed his head.
Yu Tong couldn't fly, so he could only run from bed No. 12 to bed No. 10. The upper bunk was too far from the lower bunk, and he could easily fall to his death if he jumped down.
The chicken's dormitory adventure was forced to end.
The system felt that this was not okay, so it asked for an afternoon off and ran out to buy props.
Yu Tong got back into Chen Xi's quilt and lay in the bamboo basket to ponder the system's question.
If he suddenly found out that Yun Mingchen was not Brother Chen, would he abandon him and run to find the real Brother Chen?
Yu Tong thought about it until five o'clock in the afternoon, and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
Why did the system suddenly ask him such a question? They were obviously the same person.
He didn't know what to do.
The noisy footsteps in the corridor interrupted Yu Tong's thoughts.
The closed dormitory door was pushed open, and a group of children ran into the dormitory happily with glass bottles of milk.
The two villain brothers walked behind the crowd, and it seemed that they were isolated by the dormitory.
The little mushroom head had a bottle of milk in his hand, and Chen Xi had nothing in his hands.
Listening to the conversation between the two, it seems that Chen Xi made some mistakes, and the nun punished him by not having milk tonight.
While the other children in the dormitory were playing, Chen Xi climbed onto bed No. 12 and got into the quilt.
He reached into the bamboo basket and fumbled around, and Yu Tong leaned over and pecked him gently.
Chen Xi paused, and a sense of joy was transmitted to Yu Tong through the telepathic prop.
Yu Tong couldn't be happy.
For the little villain, he was not touching a chicken, but fifty roasted chickens.
He even heard the sound of swallowing saliva.
And why was the villain's stomach growling all the time? The orphanage didn't provide meals at night?
Perhaps to avoid attracting other people's attention, Chen Xi stroked the chicken a few times, then pretended to be calm and sat up to read a book.
Before leaving, he took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket and shook it quickly at the bamboo basket.
Two big green worms the size of little fingers were shaken out by Chen Xi and smashed on Yu Tong's head.
Yu Tong:...
————
When the system came back after buying props, it saw its host squatting in the corner of the bamboo basket with a face full of resentment.
In front of him, there were two green worms bigger than his head, wriggling wildly.
The system said, [Fresh protein, so disgusting. ]
Yu Tong didn't feel disgusted, he just hadn't beaten these two worms before.
The place where he lived was very popular for all-worm banquets.
After listening to him, the system rubbed its hands in disgust, [Good people, why eat worms? ]
'My family is poor and can't afford other meat. '
[Your family has done so many unethical businesses, and you are still poor? ]
Before Yu Tong could answer, the dormitory door was suddenly pushed open.
A nun walked in with a gloomy face, holding a stick and looking around, "There is one egg missing from the chicken coop. Someone stole an egg. Whoever took it, stand up."
Yu Tong was stunned.
He turned his head and saw the little villain sitting next to him, shaking uncontrollably.
