Chapter 4: Neighbors

The old man was still sitting in his chair, the radio creaking beside him, and the wrinkles on his face moved slightly.

"Xiaoxiao, do you still like that birthday present?"

"Huh!" , Zhang Xiao was stunned.

"Good, well, good... I like it very much! He still couldn't bear to live up to his grandfather's kindness.

When the old man heard this, he smiled kindly and said, "If you like it, it will be good for you to play more in the future."

"Oh, I'm washing", Zhang Xiao turned to leave, he really didn't want to talk about the login.

"What's the benefit of playing a broken game?"

In his mind, it's a horror game!

After cleaning up and having a simple breakfast, Zhang Xiao put on his school uniform, and the footprints on his back were still faintly visible.

"Grandpa, I'm in school!".

After seeing the old man nodding, Zhang Xiao went out with his schoolbag.

He jumped down the stairs in three or five steps, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously weighed his schoolbag.

"Strange, this bag is also lighter? Did you forget something? ”。

But since he got out of school yesterday, he hadn't opened his bag, and it was impossible for him to forget something.

"What's going on? Could it be that your strength has increased? ”。

As he thought about it, he had gone to the tree where his bicycle was parked and hung his bag in the back seat.

opened the lock and held the bicycle with both hands, at this moment, Zhang Xiao only felt that his hands were light, and his body's center of gravity was unstable, and he suddenly stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

As he steadied himself, his brow furrowed deeply.

Because, this bicycle is as light as nothing in his hands, and it was too strong just now.

"It's impossible, my strength seems to have really increased!".

He thought quickly in his head, and through a series of events in the morning, Zhang Xiao finally found the problem.

So, a bold idea popped up in his mind.

Zhang Xiao straightened his arm, grabbed the bicycle seat, and began to slowly exert force.

In a moment, the bike gradually rose off the ground.

Zhang Xiao was surprised to find that he could actually lift it flat.

He was suddenly a little surprised in his heart, because the weight of the bicycle and the schoolbag was forty or fifty pounds. Being able to straighten your arms and grab them is something that you can, and only those who have been trained for years can do.

Moreover, Zhang Xiao felt ..... I haven't done my best.

If he wanted to, it seemed that throwing the bike a few tens of meters would not be a problem.

But Zhang Xiao didn't continue to experiment, because this bicycle was also his only property.

If you throw it away, won't you have to walk to school?

However, none of this is important, the key question is, why did your strength suddenly increase?

Zhang Xiao squatted under the tree and began to ponder.

First of all, it's not organic growth.

"Did you get bitten by a spider yesterday?".

"Nor did it...".

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but think of Spider-Man's episode.

"I haven't been bitten by a spider, but I've become an ant."

"Ants? Is it ......".

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiao got up suddenly, his eyes glared at the boss, and a cheap explanation appeared in his mind.

"In ant form, to gain a strength bonus, the ant can lift an object 400 times its own, so it .....".

Lifting himself 400 times, Zhang Xiao is still far behind, but his strength has indeed increased.

"Could it be that +1 strength is a blessing to reality?".

As soon as this idea appeared, Zhang Xiao even felt that he was crazy.

However, there is nothing else to explain it.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiao's eyes narrowed, he looked back at his window, and the old man's words echoed in his ears.

"Play more in the future, it's good for you....".

When he heard this, Zhang Xiao felt a little strange.

But now that I think about it...

"Does Grandpa know something? Or was it arranged a long time ago? ”。

Zhang Xiao instantly had the urge to go upstairs to ask the old man clearly, but now he was going to be late for school.

After Spider-Man obtained superpowers, he was all masked, and Zhang Xiao understood that this matter could not be made quiet, otherwise it would be known that it would not be medically dissected.

So, he didn't want to do anything weird, and even if he did, it was best to come back from school.

Although this incident shocked Zhang Xiao a lot, it didn't seem to be a bad thing when he thought about it.

"If the game attributes can really be blessed in reality, will I become a superhero like Spider-Man?"

Whether he can become a superhero Zhang Xiao doesn't know, but he can be sure of one thing.

That is, at least I won't be bullied......

“......”。

Zhang Xiao straightened up, straightened his bicycle, and was just about to get ready for school.

At this moment, a low and hoarse voice suddenly came from not far away.

"Zhang Xiao, do you want to go to school? Let's go together? ”。

At a glance, on the corner of a dilapidated street, next to a messy garbage bin, a figure on the same bicycle appeared.

Even if he doesn't look back, Zhang Xiao can know who it is just by his unique voice.

His neighbor, Sun Xiaoqiang.

The two live very closely, but they are also familiar with each other, this Sun Xiaoqiang is also a tragedy, according to legend, he used to be a famous child, but it is a pity that he was contaminated with a strange disease when he was a child, which caused the whole person to be a little deformed.

What the specific illness was, his father couldn't tell if he had consulted a famous doctor.

The only thing those doctors figured out was that Sun Xiaoqiang would not live to be twenty-five years old.

So, his father decisively gave up the treatment and decided to kick him out of the house, but at that time his mother did not agree, and as a result, he was also kicked out of the house...

The next year, his father gave birth to a pair of healthy dragon and phoenix twins with his new love.

And Sun Xiaoqiang's mother and son became neighbors with Zhang Xiao.

It is said that Sun Xiaoqiang's original name was Sun Kaiqiang, and he also had a baby kiss when he was a child.

After being kicked out of the house, he changed his name to Sun Xiaoqiang, and the marriage of Nazhuang was over.

Zhang Xiao feels that with such a bumpy life experience, if it is written into a novel, it may become popular...

Sun Xiaoqiang's impression of Zhang Xiao is that he is hunchbacked and decrepit before he gets old.

Due to the strange illness, his back has been bent into an eerie arc, as if he was always riding something around his neck.

And as he grew older, it became more and more serious, and at the beginning, he was hunched back twenty or thirty degrees, and now it has developed to fifty or sixty degrees.

Zhang Xiao has no doubt that when he is twenty-five years old, the whole person should be folded....

Moreover, he was extremely thin, skinny, with sunken eyes, dark skin, sparse hair, and was not yet twenty years old, giving people the impression of forty or fifty years old.

Not only his appearance, but also his IQ is different from ordinary people.

Zhang Xiao remembered that Sun Xiaoqiang once raised a hamster, and then the hamster got sick, and Sun Xiaoqiang decisively fed it rat poison ......

Because of this, Sun Xiaoqiang doesn't have any friends, and he usually talks to Zhang Xiao.

Since Zhang Xiao took care of him for the first time, Sun Xiaoqiang has become extremely enthusiastic, and every time he sees Zhang Xiao, he will take the initiative to say hello.

The two of them are next to each other, and they go to school on the way.

Hearing Sun Xiaoqiang's call at this time, Zhang Xiao nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, Sun Xiaoqiang grinned and seemed to be very happy.

The two of them pedaled on their bikes and ran to school together.

"Zhang Xiao, I heard that you were beaten by Song Zhennan yesterday?"

Sun Xiaoqiang asked inappropriately, which pot is really not opened.

"Hmm", Zhang Xiao said, after all, he didn't want to mention it.

"Does that hurt or not?" , Sun Xiaoqiang asked again.

"Shhh , Zhang Xiao gritted his teeth and began to regret that he had just taken care of him....

But for Sun Xiaoqiang, he doesn't care.

"Nothing".

"Oh, if you call me next time you do this, I'll help you beat him!" , Sun Xiaoqiang said.

This sounds quite heartwarming, but Zhang Xiao didn't care, after all, if he fights with his stump body, he will probably be regarded as a porcelain toucher...
