As they spoke, the three arrived at the entrance of the Zhuling Secret Realm.

However, this legendary entrance looked quite eerie.

“......”

Wei Fuyuan spoke suddenly: “Do you call this an ‘entrance’?”

Bei Quan smiled with his reply: “Can’t I?”

Of course he could, but it didn’t stop Wei Fuyuan from wanting to grab Bei Quan’s shoulders and shake him hard to see if he could control the water inside his head.

They appeared to be standing in a crowded... Children’s park?? Surrounded by a group of crazy screaming little kids, with their irritable parents who kept shouting at their children.

This was the non-motorized amusement area of Fengxing Children’s Park, which was a very large public area.

In the center was a wave pool as big as a basketball court. It was surrounded by slides, climbing frames, inflatable castles, trampolines, tree houses, seesaws, swings, small mazes and a number of other pieces of equipment.

Although it was not the weekend, the golden time for parents to take their children out for a walk was around 9 or 10 o’clock. The non-motorized amusement area of the park was also free to enter, so naturally there were many people around.

Almost every facility was being occupied by noisy children, with occasionally a child leaving after playing for long enough, soon to be replaced with other children running to fill the vacancy.

Only a corner in the northwest area seemed surprisingly quiet in such a noisy environment.

There was a Chinese scholar tree planted in the corner, which grew lush with a crown as high as three floors.

Behind the Chinese scholar tree, there was a low slide. Presumably from the height, it should’ve been for preschool children.

The theme was pandas, but the plastic pandas had a very unusual and strange aesthetic. If one was to ignore the black-and-white coloring, the animal shapes were clearly of seals.

Compared with the newly clustered amusement facilities adjacent, it was obvious that this particular slide had been around for a number of years. It had been exposed to elements of the weather for a long time. The paint had peeled off and there were many cracks on the plastic: the largest one being as long as two palms with the metal frame being visible from directly below.

There was an iron chain tied to the entrance of the slide, and a “suspended use” sign was hung on it.

This outdated, dirty and broken slide was obviously not popular.

Bei Quan, Wei Fuyuan, and Zhu Ling stood in front of it for several minutes, with no one approaching it.

Bei Quan gestured to Zhu Ling, “You go first.”

Zhu Ling nodded.

She quickly stepped forward, agilely passed through the entrance iron chain, climbed a few steps up the stairs, reached the highest point of the frame, and then dived into the tubular slide.

One second, two seconds, three seconds, several seconds passed, and the slide was still quiet.

Wei Fuyuan turned his head and looked at Bei Quan, asking in confusion, “Where is she?”

“Have you not seen ‘Harry Potter’? Do you know about Platform Nine and Three-Quarters?”

Bei Quan smiled and replied:

“That’s about it.”

Wei Fuyuan: “!!!”

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn’t believe that such a broken slide was actually the legendary ‘portal to another dimension’.

“Come on, give me your hand.”

Bei Quan asked Wei Fuyuan and held out his hand towards him.

Wei Fuyuan did as he was told.

Bei Quan rubbed his finger and a small wound appeared on his index finger.

“With this spell, you can enter the Zhu Ling Secret Realm.”

Bei Quan held Wei Fuyuan’s hand and drew a symbol on his palm with his bloodied fingertip, saying:

“Then, just like Zhu Ling did earlier, don’t worry about anything. Just slide down directly.”

He smiled and said: “When you open your eyes again, you will have ‘entered’.”

Wei Fuyuan: “Is it that simple?”

Bei Quan nodded and smiled: “Yes, it’s that simple.”

Wei Fuyuan stared at Bei Quan with a skeptical look.

Based on his countless experiences of being played around like a ball, whenever Bei Quan spoke with such certainty, he usually ended up being tricked badly.

“Hmm, it’s really that simple.”

Bei Quan smiled and his eyes curved, gently holding onto Wei Fuyuan’s hand as he curled his five fingers into a fist, wrapping the complicated spell inside.

Bei Quan leaned in close to Wei Fuyuan’s ear and deliberately spoke in a low and soft voice, making his tone sound ambiguous and affectionate:

“You and I have already had intimate contact... How could I bully you?”

Wei Fuyuan: “...”

He really felt like he was so useless: why did he become so weak so easily??

“Well, alright then!”

Wei Fuyuan’s ears turned red and his cheeks became so hot that eggs could be fried on them.

He turned his head to look at the short slide and wondered if he, with his height and build, would get stuck inside the cylindrical chute.

“Well, then I’ll go now.”

Bei Quan leaned in and quickly pecked Wei Fuyuan’s lips, then lightly patted his arm. “Mm, Relax and go ahead.”

Wei Fuyuan was completely pacified by Bei Quan’s kiss and had no more temper.

He followed Bei Quan’s instructions and climbed up the slide, disappearing into the chute.

Bei Quan counted to three in his mind.

He then turned around and smirked in the direction of the Chinese scholar tree.

A little head with braided pigtails shrunk back into the shadows with a flash.

When the little girl who was hiding and peeking out from behind the tree cautiously looked towards the slide again, the handsome brother in black clothes had disappeared without a trace.

The little girl: “???”

The little girl walked forwards a few steps in confusion, staring at the panda slide which seemed to be able to devour people with a puzzled and confused expression on her face.

The girl had just turned six from the past month and couldn’t understand anything that she had just seen.

Her little brain was full of countless questions.

Both big brothers were obviously boys, so why did they enjoy playing the kissing game?

Plus, the big brother was already an adult, so why did he go down the slide that was meant for little children?

Moreover, she clearly saw him go into the slide, so why didn’t he come out again?

Also, where did the other big brother go?

...

The little girl was really confused and subconsciously walked two steps towards the direction of the panda slide.

“Come back, sweetie!”

The mom who was playing with her phone looked up and suddenly saw her daughter walking towards a secluded corner, and quickly called her daughter back, “That slide is broken and dirty, don’t play on it! Go play on the seesaw instead!”

“O-Okay!”

After hearing her mom, the little girl obediently turned around and ran away.

She quickly joined the other children and forgot about her previous questions.

—————————-

Wei Fuyuan bent down and squeezed himself into the slide, feeling very unsure about this whole process.

The slide was so short that he would only fall for about a second at most...Could it really lead to the Zhu Ling secret realm in another dimension?

However, Wei Fuyuan’s expectation of one second was completely wrong.

He kept sliding down the “short” slide...

Wei Fuyuan’s speed got faster and faster, the friction between his jeans and the slide made his rear feel like it was on fire.

Although the exit was right in front of him, no matter how far he slid down, he just couldn’t reach the end ......

...... ......

......

Wei Fuyuan felt that this overly long slide lasted for at least half a minute.

Just when he thought his butt was about to catch fire, his speed became too fast and he flew out of the exit without warning.

Wei Fuyuan was shot out of the slide like a bullet, spinning and sliding in a stylish parabolic arc in mid-air.

“Plop!” n0veLUsb.c0m

Without any preparation, Wei Fuyuan fell backwards and began sinking half a meter into the water,? just like a heavy slab being dragged under.

The water flowed in from all directions, and he choked on a mouthful of the bitter tasting liquid.

“Cough!”

Wei Fuyuan suddenly came to his senses.

The salty taste of the water confirmed that it was seawater: he had fallen directly into the sea!

Fortunately, Wei Fuyuan was a good swimmer. He quickly kicked his legs, turned 180 degrees and paddled his arms while treading water, struggling to float to the surface.

There was nothing around him except for the blue sea and sky.

Wei Fuyuan: “!!”

He knew that every time Bei Quan sounded confident, the result would be a disaster! Wasn’t this current situation the classic scene from “The Devil’s Tattoo”?

Just as Wei Fuyuan was about to complain, he suddenly heard another “Plop” sound behind him.

He turned around and saw Bei Quan emerging from the water.

“Bei Quan!”

Wei Fuyuan stretched his arms and swam to Bei Quan’s side.

“What’s going on?”

He grabbed his lover’s arm and asked repeatedly, “Didn’t you say we were going to the Zhu Ling Secret Realm?”

He pointed to the empty sea around them.

“This is all just a vast ocean. Where is the secret realm?”

“Don’t worry.”

Bei Quan wiped the seawater off his face and brushed Wei Fuyuan’s bangs away from his eyes.

“We’ve only reached half the way.”

Wei Fuyuan blinked hard and shook the water droplets off his eyelashes.

“What about the other half?”

“Don’t worry.”

Bei Quan said with a smile, “A boat will come to pick us up soon.”

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of oars rowing came.

Bei Quan and Wei Fuyuan looked up at the same time.

A small, snow-white boat with a shiny tail wave cut through the sea and headed towards them.

There are two people on the boat. One is an old man wearing a hat who looks like a boatman, and the other is Zhu Ling, who climbed up the slide first.

“Look, here it comes.”

Bei Quan climbed onto the boat with a smile and pulled Wei Fuyuan up.

“This is the second protective formation of the Zhu Ling Secret Realm.”

On the boat, Bei Quan used a spell to dry their bodies while explaining to Wei Fuyuan.

“Even if an ordinary person gets a hold of the talisman that I drew on your hand before, and luckily finds the ‘entrance’, they can only fall into this sea. Only those who know the coordinates can take the boat across the ocean and go to the real Zhu Ling Secret Realm.”
