Chapter 24: Meet the Parents
The old house of the Lian family, in front of the desk in the bedroom.
"Whoa...... Crash. ”
Lian Ge was in a state of enlightenment, reading and absorbing the knowledge in the book quickly, and the improvement of his memory and comprehension ability allowed him to quickly grasp the knowledge in the book.
"Whoa...... Whoa......"
The sound of turning pages continued, and Lian Ge flipped through the thick tome at a speed of about half a minute, holding a pen from time to time, marking and engrave questions on the page.
In this way, Lian Ge held the "Fundamentals of Cultivation" page by page and turned it down, absorbing the knowledge in the book like a hungry thirst.
Outside the window, the night is getting darker, approaching the early morning.
......
"Smack. ”
Half an hour later, Lian Ge put down the "Cultivation Basics" again, looked at the progress of only advancing about sixty pages, and slightly blurred his eyes,
"One page in half a minute, the existing enlightenment points can only maintain the state of basic enlightenment for 430 minutes, which is enough time for me to turn through less than 900 pages at most, but the "Fundamentals of Cultivation" alone is more than 900 pages. ”
Lian Ge whispered to himself,
He realized that with his existing enlightenment points, it was simply not enough for him to master all the contents of the three books.
"Looks like we have to take a different approach. Lian Ge muttered to himself in a low voice, returning his gaze to the system interface.
Without hesitation, Lian Ge directly closed the system's basic enlightenment state.
"The basic enlightenment state has been closed for a total of 35 minutes and 38 seconds, deducting 36 enlightenment points. ”
Skimming the prompts on the system, Lian Ge looked at the three books on the desk again,
"The current state of enlightenment can only be used as inspiration and intermittently.
First look at it for yourself, then mark the points that you can't figure out for the time being, and then use the state of enlightenment to think about these problems that can't be figured out in the normal state, and concentrate on solving them.
If the state of enlightenment can't be solved, you can consider summoning an ancestor down later. ”
After making a plan, Lian Ge picked up the heavy book and continued to read it.
It's just that this time, the speed of turning the page has slowed down a lot, and from time to time Lian Ge needs to stop, think seriously, and ponder.
Time is constantly passing in Lian Ge's study of the knowledge in the book.
......
Outside the window, the night is getting deeper, and a bright moon hanging obliquely rises from the sky to the sky, and the stars embedded in the night gradually become clear.
Inside the window, Lian Ge, who had slept all day during the day, seemed very energetic at this moment, and even more sleepy when his brain was constantly turning.
Although the state of basic enlightenment was closed, Lian Ge was still immersed in absorbing and mastering the knowledge in the book.
finally
After Lian Ge remarked the next question in the blank space next to the page,
Outside the window, a rooster crows in the distance.
"Giggle...... Oh~"
Listening to this faint voice, Lian Ge picked up the mobile phone placed next to him and looked at it,
"4:45 ......"
Seeing that hours had passed unconsciously, Lian Ge shook his head slightly and closed the book.
"How do you feel like you're back in your third year of high school...... No, I wouldn't read until four o'clock in the morning in my junior year of high school. ”
got up from the seat again, stretched his waist, and listened to the crackling sound all over his body, Lian Ge smiled and sighed.
Glancing at the three tomes on the book, Lian Ge put them back into the system and walked towards the bed.
......
After a short time, the bedroom was quiet again, and Lian Ge fell asleep.
......
The next day, the rising sun had risen to mid-air, and the sun shone through the window on the bed.
Lian Ge, who slept in a daze, was woken up by a familiar voice as he did yesterday,
“...... Big lazy pig, the sun is drying your butt, can't you get up yet?"
Gu Xiaoying straddled Lian Ge and shook him.
Opening his eyes and looking at Gu Xiaoying on his body, Lian Ge smiled and put his hand behind his head,
"Did you know that your posture is dangerous?"
"Danger? What kind of danger is it? Why don't I know!" As she spoke, Gu Xiaoying still moved defiantly on Lian Ge.
"I don't know, it seems that Gu Xiaoying didn't listen carefully in class," Lian Ge smiled and teased her.
"Look, your hundred-pound body is pressed against my abdomen, will it cause abdominal crush injury, you were still moving just now, is it possible to cause abdominal organ contusion?"
"You're only a hundred pounds, and I obviously only need more than ninety pounds!" Gu Xiaoying's focus was only in the first half of the sentence.
"Well, yes, yes, it's only more than 90 pounds, and by no means 51.2 kilograms. ”
"Lian Ge, you bastard! You bully me! I'm going to be angry, I'm going to be unhappy!"
"How can I bully you. ”
"Hmph, there is!"
"Is it because I'm telling the truth?"
"Ah, Lian Ge, you still say, bastard......"
......
Playing and playing, and after a burst of kissing and hugging, the two left the bed tiredly.
Old mansions, halls.
"Lian Ge, are you hungry? I cooked some porridge, do you want to drink some?" Gu Xiaoxiang looked at Lian Ge as if offering a treasure.
"Does my cute little shadow still cook porridge?" Lian Ge said with a smile.
"Of course, I am the chef of my porridge, and I cook my porridge. Gu Xiaoying shook her head and said with some pride,
"What kind of porridge did you boil in the morning, Xiaoying?" Lian Ge still cooperated.
"White porridge, this is my best porridge. ”
"I take the liberty of asking, Xiaoying, what is your porridge made of?" Lian Ge inexplicably, with a strange premonition.
"Rice cooker. ”
“......”
"Did you add anything?"
"Why do you need to add something to the white porridge except rice and water?"
“......”
When Lian Ge heard this, he was slightly silent,
"Little Shadow, do you know? This thing is called porridge in our place. ”
......
Time passed, and after a simple breakfast of porridge with pickles, it was almost noon.
The two of them, who had been tired of the morning, finally got down to business.
"Lian Ge, what we talked about last night......" The smile on Gu Xiaoying's face retracted and became serious, "Let's go over and see grandpa now, right?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded, "Okay, let's go over now." ”
As he spoke, Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying got up one after another,
"Wait, I'll get some incense wax. ”
As he spoke, Lian Ge turned around and took out some scented wax from the bag hanging behind the door of the hall.
Then, the two walked side by side towards the entrance of the village.
......
A moment passed.
At the entrance of the village, at the foot of the mountain, the old man of the Lian family lived after his death.
"Old man, I've brought someone to see you. ”
Lighting the incense wax and two handfuls of incense, Lian Ge looked at the mound with the new seal, and said softly,
"Do you remember what I told you about Xiaoying before? It's her, she's my girlfriend, your granddaughter-in-law. ”
Lian Ge said, glanced at Gu Xiaoying, and took her hand.
"Well, it's not bad......"
Holding Gu Xiaoying's hand, Lian Ge chattered at the mound of dirt that could no longer respond.
......
After a long time, Lian Ge, whose eyes were a little red, stopped talking, and the surroundings were suddenly quiet, only the wind was howling.
"Alright, Xiaoying, let's go. Lian Ge looked at the mound of soil in front of him and said again.
"Lian Ge, can you let me talk to my grandfather alone for a while?" Gu Xiaoying clenched Lian Ge's palm with some distress and said.
"What, is there any secret you can't tell me?" Lian Ge turned his head to look at Gu Xiaoying, a smile squeezed out of his face,
"yes, so you can't eavesdrop, you know?"
"Okay, then you can talk to the old man alone, and I'll go away. ”
Saying that, Lian Ge walked a little farther away, and found a random ridge to sit down directly.
Listening to the words vaguely drifting in the wind behind him, Lian Ge tilted his head and smiled slightly.
