Lin Li scread miserably while quietly inching towards the door.
Even though his honor banner was still in Xue Jian’s hands, Lin Li really didn’t plan on taking it.
Taking the banner and losing his life was not a good trade. It was better to run away now.
He was very close to the door, the dawn of victory was just in sight. Co on, keep going!
"Stop."
As Lin Li reached the door, he heard the low whisper of death behind him and, in a daze, saw the Ox Head and Horse Face smiling warmly at him.
I’m dood.
Bad news, he’d never see Xiaojing again. Good news, he could visit Lao Da now.
"Hey, the illness is over! I’m better now!" Lin Li ended his performance, chanically and slowly turned around, obediently and honestly stood where he was, and looked at Xue Jian: "Teacher, I was really blind just now, believe , I never lie."
Lin Li didn’t see Xue Jian’s gaze.
Because Xue Jian was already sitting in his seat, pressing his forehead with his fingers, covering his eyes with his palm, and did not respond to Lin Li’s words.
"Co here." A few seconds later, Xue Jian suddenly said.
How to write an obituary?
Can soone watch a thirty-second ad to revive ?
Moshi moshi, waiting online, very, very urgent.
Fortunately, all his browsers were in incognito mode... Wait, no! He hadn’t deleted the forbidden comics yet, his favorite manga would be shown! 363848, go ahead, my inheritance is all here.
With a resolute determination to face death, Lin Li walked towards Xue Jian with a drooping face.
However, Xue Jian still did not look up, as if he didn’t dare to face Lin Li’s eyes either.
He extended his trembling hand, unlocked his phone with a fingerprint again, then said in a shaky voice, "Take the phone, scroll through it, read so chat history."
He paused and added with a tremor, "I beg you."
This was the first ti Lin Li saw Xue Jian show such a ’fragile’ side, like an old man in his twilight years. Who could refuse such a request at this ti?
Lin Li could.
——But actually, Lin Li was just a bit scared, not daring to pick up the phone.
At this mont, he was like a bomb disposal expert, maintaining distance, and started swiping the screen with his finger from afar.
"..."
"Xue Jian: Where are all my banners? Can’t find any of them?"
"Wife: Haven’t seen them, probably didn’t bring them last ti we moved because they were hidden in those boxes or sothing, why are you looking for them?"
"Xue Jian: It’s about my dignity, look again, look again."
"Wife: Really can’t find them."
"Xue Jian: Do you have photos of them? I changed my phone, previous photos weren’t transferred over."
"Wife: Why would I keep pictures of your banners? Do I look sick to you?"
"Xue Jian: ...Then can you help make one, quick, I still rember the contents of one banner..."
"..."
Okay, Lin Li had already understood what Xue Jian wanted to express to him.
Even though assignnts not brought were regarded as uncompleted, Xue Jian had truly done them.
It’s just that the assignnts were lost, having no choice but to copy them anew, and all he saw was the scene of him copying the assignnts, indeed a misunderstanding.
Xue Jian was a good student.
He truly was, Lin Li was moved to tears.
Co to think of it, being a horoom teacher in a key high school, his age and experience were there, so banners were achievable.
"Teacher, I finished reading, I understand, you truly have them." Lin Li cautiously said, fearing a loud voice would trigger Xue Jian.
"Thank you," it was rare to hear such words from Xue Jian’s mouth, he again extended his trembling hand, handed Lin Li his banner, "Take it ho, be safe on the road."
Throughout, Xue Jian did not look up to Lin Li, but Lin Li didn’t feel disrespected at all.
"Thank you, teacher." He carefully took it and expressed thanks.
"Get going now." Xue Jian waved his hand.
Lin Li turned and left imdiately, without a mont’s pause because he suspected that Xue Jian was now suppressing his second personality, or the beast sleeping within him. If he didn’t leave soon, there would be no more chances.
...
Got on the bicycle.
Lin Li did not imdiately ride in the direction of his ho, first went to the ATM to deposit most of the money into his bank card, and then started seemingly aimless wandering around Xiling Town.
A dead rat, co on, show yourself.
However, even after biking for half an hour, the system Lin Li was expecting gave no response.
There was no notification about any nearby chicken farms.
Could it be that his luck was too bad, never could locate where the chicken farms were hidden?
Since it was only half an hour, and was actually making rounds, Lin Li was essentially wandering around the Xiling Center area.
Might these places be too urbanized, the fundantal reason for not being triggered?
It was already too late today, too much ti had been wasted in the office. Tomorrow evening, he would ride to farther and more remote places. If this thod still didn’t trigger in a week’s ti, Lin Li could basically conclude that the system wouldn’t notify proactively, and finding a chicken farm would rely on finding a new way himself.
Lin Li biked back ho.
Without hesitation, he manifested the spirit stone.
The spirit stone was not as big as he imagined. Actually, the size of one was even a bit smaller than an egg, five of them could be barely held in one hand, but very light, their total weight was less than an egg.
Lin Li initially thought they would be very large, where one hand could only hold one, and heavy, turns out he overthought it.
And it didn’t trigger any celestial phenona.
With a crystal-like luster, seemingly with an internal crystalline flow, shape between regular and irregular.
Lin Li leaned in and slled, slightly fragrant, quite appetizing.
This ti it was really sothing good, even if sold, collectors would definitely be interested.
But Lin Li couldn’t possibly do that.
"Wow, totally worth dying for!" Lin Li showed an excited smile, could finally see what this spiritual qi was about!
But Lin Li soon encountered another problem.
This spirit stone was a product without identity, without a production or expiration date is one thing, they also didn’t provide a user manual.
It was basic knowledge in the Cultivation Realm.
But it was not for him.
How to extract this spiritual qi?
As the saying goes, a housewife cannot cook a al without rice.
The Body Refining Eighth Rank Technique indeed wrote on how to use spirit qi absorbed into the body, but didn’t ntion handling a spirit stone.
Lin Li tried biting it, very hard, his teeth hurt.
"This thing can’t possibly be like the Golden Cores in novels, that can be swallowed and refined in the stomach, right?"
Lin Li looked at its size, indeed swallowable, he held it but hesitated to swallow.
Forget it, Lin Li spat it out again.
This thing indeed slled appetizing, but swallowing it might truly open up appetite in a physical sense.
If eaten and unable to digest, certainly couldn’t pass it, he hadn’t made it to be one of the must-eats in Chengdu.
"One cannot hold it in to death!"
Lin Li gritted his teeth and decided to treat a dead horse as if it were alive. He manifested the Body Refining Eighth Rank Technique, opened the second Chapter, held the spirit stone, and started cultivating.
As his movents posed, the cultivation technique began actively guiding the body.
"Oh~~~~"
Lin Li couldn’t help but utter a soft moan.
It worked!
