A remote brick house on the north side of the dam.
When Jiang Ning turned on the recording mode, Xue Yuantong stopped and stared at him fiercely:
"Why are you taking pictures?"
Jiang Ning: "Record your heroic posture. Come on, do it again."
Xue Yuantong thought about it and crossed his arms, "Huh, do you know the saying that Dharma should not be passed on lightly?"
It was quite interesting to hear Jiang Ningle, a little girl, saying these words in front of him, a cultivator.
"Well, although I won't teach you, as the saying goes, a master can only lead you to the door, but it's up to you to practice. I just showed you my skills, and now it's your turn to try."
Xue Yuantong is a chatterbox who speaks in a variety of ways.
Jiang Ning walked forward and kicked the tough bamboo fence, which collapsed on the spot.
Xue Yuantong exclaimed inwardly when he saw this.
That was a terrifying fence that was enough to bounce her away, yet it was so fragile in front of Jiang Ning. How great it would be if she were that powerful?
The fence was torn open, and Jiang Ning was about to step into the yard when Xue Yuantong suddenly shouted nervously, "Wait!"
Jiang Ning turned around: "What's wrong?"
Xue Yuantong reminded: "My mother once told me that we should not enter remote old houses, saying that no one has lived there for a long time and there may be poisonous insects and various toxic molds."
Jiang Ning agreed: "Indeed."
If people see an abandoned house in the wild, most people will stay away from it because the unknown represents fear.
"Then shall we leave now?" Jiang Ning asked.
Xue Yuantong: "How is that possible? I still have to look for treasure! What if there is some treasure in the house?"
Jiang Ning couldn't help but laugh when he heard that.
If we talk about treasure, the real treasure is under Xue Yuantong's house, a jar of gold.
Unfortunately, he was poached by Jiang Ning.
Xue Yuantong searched outside for a while, found a branch, some dry leaves, and tied them on with a straw rope: "Jiang Ning, do you have a lighter?"
Jiang Ning snapped his fingers and a flame shot up from his fingertips: "It's okay, there is magic."
Although it was not the first time Xue Yuantong had seen this, he was still greatly shocked. This magic was so cool!
Unfortunately, no matter how much she bribed, Jiang Ning was unwilling to pass it to her.
After lighting the branches, Xue Yuantong waved the torch, cleared the way ahead, and stepped into the abandoned hut.
Jiang Ning expanded his spiritual sense and scanned the ground. During this time, sword energy flew out from his fingertips, killing all the centipedes, spiders and other insects.
After passing through the dilapidated courtyard, there was a shabby wooden door in front of me. The iron ring on the door was tightly locked with an iron lock. Through the crack in the door, I could see the dim light inside the house.
While Xue Yuantong was still thinking, Jiang Ning picked up a green brick and smashed it at the iron lock. With a "bang" sound, the iron ring fell off.
"Oh, the door is broken." Xue Yuantong sighed.
"No one lives here anyway." Jiang Ning didn't care.
Kicking the door open, a stale smell filled the room. Xue Yuantong stood at the door and looked around. The walls were full of mottled marks of time. The room was empty, except for an iron cage placed in the center, with some chains scattered around it.
Xue Yuantong was startled: "Why is there a cage?"
Jiang Ning's spiritual sense covered the cage, and he "smelled" the scent of a human, but it was too long ago.
Xue Yuantong felt that the surroundings were gloomy, as if the whole broken house had turned into the mouth of some terrifying creature. She grabbed the corner of Jiang Ning's clothes and said timidly, "Let's go."
Jiang Ning: "Okay."
Xue Yuantong quickly left the dilapidated house, walked out of the yard, through the woods, and stopped only when she reached an empty area where she could see the asphalt road on the river dam.
Jiang Ning discovered that she was indeed very timid.
He reminded: "That cage is made of iron and can be sold for a lot of money, why don't you move it?"
Xue Yuantong immediately showed his wit: "A lot of people must have been there just now, and no one moved the iron cage, which means there must be something dirty!"
Jiang Ning smiled. Although this house felt strange, he didn't take it to heart. All the people he cared about wore the protective jade pendants he made.
At most, he is just a person with some malicious intent. Everything that ordinary people fear poses no threat to him.
After this little adventure, Xue Yuantong and Jiang Ning returned to the dam together. Today was Saturday and the dam was very busy with people coming and going, and some selling things, full of the flavor of life.
……
After returning home, Chuchu came back from school.
Xue Yuantong hurried over and told her about today's adventure, which made Xue Chuchu's face change slightly.
Xue Yuantong sighed: "Oh, if it were us when we were kids, we would definitely move the iron cage away, take it to the scrap yard and sell it, and make a lot of money!"
When she said this, as expected, Xue Chuchu's eyes changed when she looked at Tongtong. She seemed to be looking at him in a new light. She didn't expect Tongtong to be so brave.
Xue Yuantong felt secretly happy.
Although she didn't have the courage to move the iron cage, Chuchu's shock was real.
Jiang Ning leaned against the wall and watched her pretend quietly.
After telling her story, Xue Yuantong showed off the nostalgic snacks she bought, planning to eat them slowly together in the evening and then decide what fun things to do tomorrow.
My neighbor, Teacher Qian, was lying on a chair, holding his waist with his hands, looking angry.
If Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong had not provoked him to jump up and grab the badminton at noon, he would never have fallen to this point!
When Butcher Zhang found out about this in the afternoon, he burst into laughter, mocking Teacher Qian for being fooled by a young man despite his old age.
Then, Butcher Zhang saw Jiang Ning leaning against the wall, stretching out his shoe and rubbing it casually on the head of his big wolf dog, who looked very flattering.
Butcher Zhang's mouth twitched, "Damn, the former overlord of Heba Pingfang, has it changed its position now?"
He was unwilling to accept it, but Jiang Ning next door was much stronger than him. He had been killing pigs for decades, but he could not beat Jiang Ning in arm wrestling.
Butcher Zhang: "Thank God, after he graduates from high school, he should leave. From now on, I will still have the final say here!"
Compared to Zhang the Butcher who was temporarily tolerant, Teacher Qian was lying on a chair, listening to the Xue family girl's chat. He shouted: "You young people, all you do is eat, drink and have fun all day long. How can you do that?"
Teacher Qian: "If you don't endure the hardship of studying now, you will endure the hardship of life in the future!"
Xue Yuantong: "I don't want to suffer, I just want to enjoy happiness."
Teacher Qian became interested in teaching. He said, "If you don't want to suffer, I will give you a word..."
Jiang Ning: "Don't always think about giving young people gifts. If you really want to give them gifts, give them some money. If they have enough money, they won't have to suffer anymore."
Teacher Qian wanted to say something, but Jiang Ning challenged him to a badminton challenge, so Teacher Qian shut up.
He was furious: "What kind of person is this! Whose parents would raise such a child?"
He wanted to argue with Sister Gu, but then he remembered that Sister Gu was also unreasonable.
……
Xue Yuantong was chatting with Chuchu at the door. Aunt Gu came out and called, "Tongtong, come to the house to help."
Xue Yuantong's face showed pain, and he acted like a pro: "Mom, my legs hurt, I can't walk anymore."
She is not ordered around by her mother, she is free!
Aunt Gu touched her daughter's head and said lovingly, "It's okay. I don't need your help if my legs hurt. Just have a good rest."
"I'll make pineapple pork ribs and egg yolk chicken wings for dinner later... You don't have to eat them."
Aunt Gu had a smiling face and was full of care for her daughter.
Xue Yuantong got angry on the spot: "Mom, you don't know how to take care of a child. Do you want to rest when you are tired? No, it's not like that. Perseverance is a valuable quality. I will definitely help you!"
After saying this, she didn't wait for her mother's approval, she just abandoned Chu Chu and went home without looking back.
Xue Chuchu: “…”
Aunt Gu went home satisfied.
After the mother and daughter left, Jiang Ning looked at Chu Chu and invited: "Want to join us? Your mother isn't back anyway."
For some reason, Jiang Ning was obviously just a tenant of Tongtong's family, but he didn't comment, just like the head of the Tongtong family, without any awareness of being an outsider.
Even though Hua Fengmei said that Aunt Gu was prepared to let Jiang Ning and Tongtong get together...but, has their relationship reached this point?
Xue Chuchu thought about it for a long time, and finally, she agreed to Jiang Ning's invitation.
The kitchen was filled with the smell of smoke. Xue Yuantong was standing behind the stove. His little face was illuminated red by the firelight, looking very adorable.
Jiang Ning estimated that if he pinched Tongtong's little face now, it would definitely feel warm.
It’s a pity that Aunt Gu was there.
So Jiang Ning sat on a small stool, occasionally using his spiritual power to disperse the smoke in the room, quietly guarding the peaceful and warm scene.
……
Sunday, afternoon.
Jiang Ning took Tongtong to school by bike. Along the way, she kept chattering, saying that the day off was so short and it was over before she even started playing.
Jiang Ning said: "You can apply for two days off."
Xue Yuantong declined: "That won't work. I have to appear sociable."
"Hmm? Then you still sleep every day?"
Xue Yuantong: "Just tell me, did you go to school?"
The electric car slowly slowed down, and Xue Yuantong prepared to buy a cup of double skin milk. 99% of the pocket money Aunt Gu gave her was used by her to buy food.
She is not like other girls who like to buy clothes, accessories and other miscellaneous things. She simply likes to buy snacks.
The two walked towards the shop selling double skin milk together. The tall Tang Fu was standing in front of the bar, communicating with the boss about the flavor of double skin milk she wanted.
Xue Yuantong walked lightly behind Tang Fu and poked her quietly.
Tang Fu was extremely agile. She turned around suddenly and faced Jiang Ning.
She and Jiang Ning had a life-and-death friendship. They had climbed mountains together twice and were good friends who dined at the same table.
"Jiang Ning, what do you want to eat? I'll treat you!" Tang Fu waved her hand carelessly, "Choose whatever you want!"
Jiang Ning said: "Two cups of original double-skin milk."
Tang Fu smiled and said, "No problem."
Immediately, she asked again: "Are you buying two cups for Tongtong? She is not with you?"
Jiang Ning raised the corner of his mouth: "She is here."
Tang Fu looked around in confusion: "Where is she?"
Jiang Ning: "Behind you."
Tang Fu was confused at first, then she lowered her head and looked downward, finally noticing that Tongtong was standing between her and Jiang Ning.
Tang Fu was surprised, "So you are here, sorry, I didn't see you."
Xue Yuantong was filled with grief and indignation!
She was the one who touched Tang Fu just now, but she actually ignored her!
Xue Yuantong felt so uncomfortable, "Damn big guy!"
Isn't it just tall? What's the big deal!
……
Tongtong, who suffered a major blow, was depressed throughout the dinner.
However, I still ate a lot of food.
After returning to the classroom, the class was in chaos.
The four golden flowers made an appointment to go for a night run together during the break between evening self-study classes.
Because they heard that night running is the best way to lose weight.
Shan Kaiquan expressed his strong agreement. He successfully made a comeback by relying on night running. In terms of physical ability, Shan Kaiquan is now much stronger than the sports student Zhang Chi.
However, his actual combat skills are unknown and he has not yet fought with anyone.
Pang Jiao asked: "How long does it take for night running to produce results?"
Shan Kaiquan said: "You need to run for at least a month before you can see the effect."
"Is it so slow?" Pang Jiao's face was filled with pain.
Cui Yu: "Brother Quan, you are talking nonsense. Night running is very effective. Some people can see results on the same day and lose a lot of weight."
Now not only Shan Kaiquan, but even the fitness guy Song Sheng couldn't stand it anymore. He sneered, "What do you know?"
"Losing weight is a very difficult thing. It requires long-term persistence. An average person can only run five kilometers at night. I'm afraid they will be too tired to lose weight. How much weight can they lose?"
However, Pang Jiao felt hopeful after hearing this. She shouted, "Song Sheng, shut up. Cui Yu, go on!"
Cui Yu said: "I know a guy who went for a night run just once and lost 30 pounds!"
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.
Shan Kaiquan felt that Cui Yu was a psychopath.
Song Sheng thought he was an idiot.
Pang Jiaoru listened to the words of God and lost 30 pounds after running once. If she ran for a week, wouldn’t she be able to lose weight like lightning?
"Tell me quickly, tell me quickly!" Pang Jiao was extremely excited.
Cui Yu said: "Hey, that person went out for a night run. Because it was too dark, he was accidentally hit by a car. One of his legs was amputated and he lost 30 kilograms on the spot."
After he finished speaking, the atmosphere became a little frozen.
……
Jiang Ning blocked out Pang Jiao's roar.
During evening study today, Bai Yuxia brought an electric thermometer. I wonder what price Chen Siyu paid for it.
Chen Siyu was taking Jiang Ning's temperature, which was 36.6°, and then took the temperature of the sleeping Xue Yuantong, which was 36.5°. They were having a lot of fun.
"From now on, I can know whether you have a fever anytime and anywhere!" Chen Siyu was very satisfied.
Jiang Ning thought about it and decided to tease her: "Why bother? I'll teach you."
He used rhetoric and routine to induce the stupid Chen Siyu.
Two minutes later, Bai Yuxia walked into the classroom.
Jiang Ning and Chen Siyu were seen putting their hands together, Bai Yuxia was staring at the scene in a daze.
She remained silent, and time seemed to last for a very long time. Bai Yuxia's gaze also became deep.
Chen Siyu said: "People's hands are cold, but they will become hot when they have a fever. If the hands are very hot, it proves that he has a fever. Now Jiang Ning is cold."
After saying that, she took Jiang Ning's temperature, which was still 36.6°, normal.
Bai Yuxia was suspicious and asked, "Who told you this principle?"
Chen Siyu: "I thought of it myself."
"Really?"
"Yes!" Chen Siyu almost swore.
Bai Yuxia: "It's fake."
