I Stepped on a Bug, and the System Says I Slayed a Dragon? - Chapter 95: Li Qinghe: All He Knows Is Sleeping on the Job, This Guy Is a Lost Cause
Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Li Qinghe: All He Knows Is Sleeping on the Job, This Guy Is a Lost Cause
“Ten Thousand Array Map?”
In a corner of the library, Qin Yang slowly opened his eyes, retracting the Spiritual Power he’d been using to probe his surroundings. He was a little surprised.
’What is that?’
After leaving Li Qinghe just now, he had deliberately kept a close watch on her.
His Spiritual Power now blanketed the entire first floor of the library, acting as his eyes and ears. Not the slightest whisper or movement could escape his notice.
As the saying goes, persistent thoughts will inevitably be answered.
He had barely left, and Li Qinghe was already spilling all her secrets.
’But…’
’What’s this Ten Thousand Array Map all about? Is that why Li Qinghe came to the library?’
Qin Yang frowned, processing the information he’d overheard and recalling the library’s browsing records.
Over the past few days, he had skimmed through most of the first and second floors. The books related to the Array Dao were pitifully few, and all of them were third-rate, worthless texts.
How could there be a Top Grade treasure like the “Ten Thousand Array Map”?
’Could it be… that the library has secrets I don’t know about?’
Qin Yang stroked Xiaobai’s fur, his thoughts racing with a pleasant surprise.
’It seems this “Ten Thousand Array Map” is what Li Qinghe is after!’
And, based on her mumbling to herself just now, it turned out this “buddy” of his wasn’t a guy at all. She was just a young woman disguised as a man, and a very inexperienced one at that.
’So young, after all.’
’Naive!’
Since Li Qinghe went to such great lengths to sneak in and steal the “Ten Thousand Array Map,” then, by the system’s logic, this must be the crucial turning point that allowed her to soar to the top.
Five hundred years from now, she would rely on this very moment to become an Array Dao Grandmaster, reaching the pinnacle of her craft.
Eventually, she would even step into the Emperor Venerable Realm.
’Isn’t this the classic “great opportunity” plot point…’
At this thought, Qin Yang began to understand how all the pieces fit together.
It was only Li Qinghe’s first day, and she probably thought her plan was flawless, that she’d outsmarted everyone—including him.
But in reality, the situation was the exact opposite!
’I’ve already calculated everything 500 years into your future!’
“Tsk, still too young… She doesn’t know how cruel the world can be.”
Thinking this, Qin Yang chuckled, pulled out his little slacking stool, found a more comfortable position, and continued to slack off.
Now that he had figured out Li Qinghe’s motive, things would be much simpler.
All he had to do was bide his time, observe the depths of her Array Dao foundation, and find the right opportunity to trigger a huge reward. Then he’d be set.
’So what if you’re hailed by millions and enjoy limitless glory 500 years from now?’
’So what?’
’This is 500 years in the past!’
’It takes a flood serpent 500 years to transform into a flood dragon. What do I have to be afraid of?’
’Besides, I have the True Understanding of Array Dao. When the time comes, I can give this little lady some extra lessons and teach her to be completely obedient.’
At this thought, Qin Yang relaxed. He immersed his consciousness in the Enlightenment Space to deepen his comprehension of the *True Understanding of Array Dao*, while also pulling out his phone to browse some satellite images of mountains and rivers.
Now, with his growing mastery of the Array Dao, Qin Yang’s understanding of Feng Shui Grand Arrays had reached an unbelievable level.
Once you understand the core principle, all techniques become clear.
Qin Yang glanced down at his phone.
His eyes fixed on the mountains and rivers on the screen. By tracing the dragon veins coiling through the peaks and observing the formation of the landscape, he could easily deduce the locations of imperial tombs hidden deep within.
Clusters of burial mounds, their ghostly treasures and paper offerings—all were laid bare before his eyes.
He knew with perfect clarity which mountain’s Feng Shui Array nexus held which buried Emperors.
If he ever got tired of working at the library, he could go tomb raiding and make a massive profit.
But that was just talk.
It was wealth of the dead, after all, and Qin Yang couldn’t be bothered to go after it.
Besides, his life was pretty comfortable right now; he wasn’t so desperate as to go digging up ghost money.
The current priority was to continue strengthening his understanding of the Array Dao.
He had to strive to take his mastery of Arrays to the next level.
When the time was right, he would swoop in at the last moment, give the future Array Dao Grandmaster a harsh lesson, and deliver a soul-crushing shock.
’Wouldn’t the resulting hundredfold reward be even better?’
At this thought, Qin Yang comfortably put down his phone, curled Xiaobai up to use as a neck pillow, closed his eyes, and focused on immersing himself in the Enlightenment Space.
Time trickled by…
………..
A short while later, Li Qinghe was wandering the floor, turning left and right, holding a book with no code on its spine and searching everywhere for Qin Yang.
“Brother Qin Yang? Are you here?”
“I have a book here with no code on it. Where should I put it?”
Li Qinghe clutched the book, walking past the bookshelves and searching carefully row by row, until she finally found Qin Yang’s slacking spot.
There, between the shelves, Qin Yang was sitting on his small stool, leaning back against the wall with his legs crossed, perfectly still. An adorable little fox was curled up on his neck like a pillow.
Man and fox slept amidst a sea of books, peaceful and serene, far from the library’s hustle and bustle.
“…”
Seeing this, Li Qinghe glanced around at the surrounding bookshelves and was instantly speechless.
’Looks like this guy Qin has really mastered the art of slacking off.’
This spot was hidden so deep within the library, it was obviously carefully chosen. He’d perfectly predicted people’s habits; no one would ever normally pass through here.
Never mind the Steward; even she, who was focused on researching the Array Dao, might have missed it.
’To go to such lengths just to slack off… It’s ridiculous.’
At this thought, Li Qinghe shot Qin Yang a look, a trace of disdain flashing in her eyes.
’So lazy… No wonder his abilities are so pathetic. He’s only fit to be a librarian here…’
’If you just lie around like this every day, what kind of ambitions can you possibly have in life?’
Thinking of this, Li Qinghe shook her head slightly, looking at the book in her hand, then back at the sleeping Qin Yang.
’If I wake him up now… he won’t be grumpy, will he?’
’Forget it. I’ll just wait here for him to wake up…’
Li Qinghe squatted to the side, her gaze occasionally drifting upstairs. She spaced out, absentmindedly and patiently waiting for Qin Yang to wake up.
…..
However, her wait lasted the entire afternoon.
In the evening, Qin Yang opened his eyes, “waking up” right on schedule. He stretched, yawned, and then glanced at Li Qinghe in the corner.
A faint snore escaped her lips.
She was leaning in the corner, fast asleep, still clutching the book she had wanted to ask about. Her chest rose and fell gently with each even breath.
She was clearly out cold.
Seeing this, Qin Yang couldn’t help but smile.
He had sensed the young woman’s location earlier, when she was searching for him in the library.
He just never expected that after waiting for only a short while, the young woman would actually fall asleep.
Qin Yang slowly crouched in front of her, snapped his fingers, and said softly, “Wake up, Li Qing. Time to get off work.”
“Ngh…”
Hearing his voice, Li Qinghe rubbed her drowsy eyes and looked around in a daze. Her mind was still foggy as she raised a sleeve to wipe a trail of drool from the corner of her mouth.
She was still completely out of it.
“Just put that book back. We don’t have to worry about the ones without codes.”
Qin Yang looked at the book in her arms and instructed with a smile, “From now on, just leave them on the counter. It’s closing time, so you should head home early too.”
With that said, Qin Yang turned and left with Xiaobai in his arms, without a moment’s hesitation.
’He’s leaving just like that?’
Li Qinghe rubbed her drowsy eyes and glared resentfully at his departing back. Then she looked blankly at the book in her hands, wondering in astonishment.
’He slacks off all day at work, and the second it’s time to leave, he’s gone faster than anyone…’
’How can trash like that even be a librarian?!!’
