Chapter 264: Past Events (Modernized Residence)
While strolling in Chen Ge Hu, Zhen felt as if she was in a dreamy fairyland, and every scene made her linger. She quietly appreciated everything here, feeling the beauty and tranquility of nature. However, when Chen Yue mentioned his real home, Zhen couldn't help but feel a little curious and expectant. She couldn't imagine what kind of residence Chen Yue had in Liyue, and her heart was full of yearning for the unknown world.
The next morning, the sun shone through the window onto Zhen's face, warm and gentle. She gently opened her eyes, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and felt the beauty of a new day. Following Chen Yue out of the Chengehu, Zhen found that they had come to a beautiful mountain. The mountain was towering into the clouds, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
"Are we there yet?" asked Genuinely curious.
Chen Yue smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is my home."
The two came to Mount Ao Zang, but this time, Chen Yue was not just going to unlock the lock. He wanted to unlock the seal he had set to prevent others from entering the real realm.
"Zhen, please step back a little." Chen Yue said softly.
Zhen nodded and stepped back. Chen Yue took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Then, a strong breath surged out of his body.
The aura of black and white ignited on his body, and the pupils of Chen Yue's eyes turned into a yin-yang diagram. There was also a blue cloak phantom behind him, with a big "power" written on it.
He formed seals with his hands and muttered something. A beam of light shot out from his hands, illuminating the entire mountain.
Zhen's eyes widened, looking at the scene in front of her in surprise. She had never seen Chen Yue use his full strength. In the sparring with Ying, Chen Yue never used any attribute attacks other than elemental power from beginning to end.
"Taiji. Yin, Yin. Heaven, Earth, Man. Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise. Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. Hell, Evil Spirits, Beasts, Man, Asura, Heaven. Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, Yaoguang. Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Zhong, Kan, Li, Gen, Dui. Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui."
"Unlock the Infinite Seal!"
As Chen Yue shouted, the space in front of them began to distort, as if an invisible force was tearing the space apart. Zhen held her breath nervously, and she felt the air around her vibrate, as if the entire mountain was shaking at this moment.
Gradually, a... modern door appeared in front of the two of them, with a combination lock (including facial recognition) on it.
"Uh......"
I got an O. Henry-style ending. I thought it would be a big one, but it turned out to be even bigger.
I complained helplessly in my heart, and really began to doubt whether I had said so much just now just to make up the word count for the novel.
The spell is so long that if you don't know, you might think it's about to launch some kind of mass destruction skill.
"Let's go." Chen Yue turned around without feeling embarrassed and gave Zhen a faint smile. His eyes revealed a calm confidence, as if all this was within his expectations.
Although Zhen was stunned by the scene in front of her, she quickly adjusted her mood when she saw Chen Yue was so calm. She walked forward and looked at the modern door. She couldn't help but feel curious. How big was it?
"This... this is..." Zhen spoke hesitantly. She really couldn't connect the door in front of her with the seal of Mt. Ozang.
Chen Yue smiled and explained, "To be on the safe side, I added an electronic lock with facial recognition. Of course, this is a bit too advanced for you."
Help, family, I feel my intelligence is insulted. It feels like installing a wooden door behind the prison gate.
"Isn't this a bit redundant? It's not easy to memorize the spell just now, let alone see this door."
Zhen half-jokingly pointed to his head, trying to ease the sudden weird feeling of the interweaving of modern and ancient times with humor.
Chen Yue shook his head slightly, with a smile on his face: "Maybe it is for you, but this lock is not to protect you."
Although I still have doubts in my heart, I will not ask any more questions.
Chen Yue walked forward, stood in front of the combination lock, and pointed his face at the facial recognition system. The system responded quickly, making a crisp "beep" sound, and then the combination lock slowly opened.
Behind the door was a long corridor with all kinds of modern equipment on both sides, which formed a sharp contrast with the ancient atmosphere of Aozang Mountain. I couldn't help but widen my eyes and look around curiously.
Chen Yue seemed to have long been accustomed to this kind of scene. He led Zhen forward, explaining the purpose of these devices as they walked.
Finally, the two came to a modern door. At this time, Zhen was too tired to complain, because there were too many points to complain about, and he didn't know where to start.
"Okay, next, don't be surprised no matter what you see. There are only five people in the entire Teyvat who know about this place."
Chen Yue's words were full of mystery and pride. He gently pushed open the door in front of him. Behind the door was a 21st century 700-bedroom, -living-room, -bathroom, -square-meter "ordinary" civilian residence.
A refrigerator, a water dispenser, a landline, and even air conditioning are all provided. Everything you can imagine is available here. Oh, by the way, there is no WIFI or electronic products.
Because the technology of Teyvat does not allow it, and Chen Yue does not know how that thing was made, he can only figure it out on his own.
Looking at the decoration style that is 20 centuries different from the previous one, I really don’t know whether I should be surprised or complain.
"This is the place that took me hundreds of years to build. It's my real home."
Chen Yue's voice was a little tired, but more of it was satisfaction and pride. He pointed at the various modern facilities in the house and said to Zhen: "You may not understand, but for me, these things are the home I most desire in my heart."
Zhen looked around, and although he was shocked, he gradually understood the meaning of Chen Yue's words.
"Why... do you want such a life?" Zhen couldn't help but ask.
Chen Yue smiled slightly, with a hint of complex emotions in his eyes: "Because I don't belong here, I created this space that belongs to me alone. For me, this space means more than just a place to live, it's also a home."
Zhen listened quietly, and she couldn't help but feel inexplicably moved. She suddenly understood why Chen Yue brought her here.
"So, why did you choose to build a home like this here?"
