The old dried fish went in and out of the left ear and the right ear, but he looked serious, perfunctory with his fingers, and the big propaganda posters carefully explained the little granddaughter of the past one by one. Similar to the students who didn't listen carefully, the more Lao Yugan listened, the more sleepy he became, until the last poster, he remembered that the question he asked his second son a few days ago was still not clear, and after thinking for a moment, he interjected in a gentle tone: "Ask you something, what did the people from the Lord's Mansion say on the day I was sent to the hospital?"

Broken Scales froze for a moment, looked up and looked away, apparently hesitating to answer the question. It is not difficult to guess that the second son and the fourth daughter, according to tradition, must have nothing to do with 'Wei Guangzheng', and this kind of thing of using language to embellish facts to maintain the image of a loved one in the hearts of another close relative, is still a little difficult for a ten-year-old child.

"Your dad has already said it to me, but that guy is very stupid and can't tell the specifics. It's good for you to tell the truth, it's mainly the statement of someone from the lord's mansion. "The old dried fish touched his granddaughter's head, which is a means to get the truth from the mouth of a child.

"I heard that it was the security officer of the Lord's Mansion. Starting with this sentence revision, the broken scales tilted his head to recall the scene of the day, and told it eloquently.

Hearing the sky-high medical expenses, the second son's first reaction was to give up the treatment, the fourth daughter seconded, and the second daughter-in-law and the fourth son-in-law also nodded. In a semi-slave and semi-feudal society, it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, after all, everyone around me has done this for as long as I can remember. The third son, who couldn't figure out the situation, used to smirk, and the new daughter-in-law was also confused and didn't say a word.

And then the security officer of the lord's mansion came forward to stop the rotten bones that carried his father out of the hospital, and after a big reason, he even frightened everyone, and sent the old dried fish back to the intensive care unit, waiting for expert consultation.

As for the big truth, Rotten Bones and others were in the clouds, but Broken Scales understood it, to the effect that burying them alive is equivalent to murder and capital crime.

"It's really wide. The old fish snorted coldly, having said that, he was also afraid of the increasingly strict enforcement of the lord's decrees. After chatting about the matter, the little girl with broken scales was in a slightly awkward mood and told the final summary of the meaning of filial piety, which was regarded as completing her homework and taking her grandfather's thin hand home.

In the next three days, Lao Dried Fish gradually realized the effect of filial piety propaganda, and several adults were only more respectful in their words, and no longer said dirty words in person. And the grandchildren have begun to really practice, going out to go home to say hello constantly, good vegetables and meat are pushed, and some small housework within their ability is rushed to do.

And on the eve of returning to school after the end of the family leave, he and his younger brother worked together with a large basin of hot water to wash the feet of the rotten bones couple and the old fish, that night, the old fish heard the cry of the second daughter-in-law next door and the comfort of the rotten bones choking and changing the tone, and he was even more entangled in the heart of the moving and the huge debt left behind, and he couldn't sleep all night.

The next day, everyone who went to work and school left, and the old dried fish looked out the window in a daze for a long time. In the afternoon, Naruto came to visit and introduced the job of a porter squad leader of a newly established mushroom farm, although the salary level was fifty percent higher than that of other second-ring water system magic warriors, but it was still a drop in the bucket compared to the huge debt.

"Uncle Ten, you are so considerate, the ring number is stuck, it is really difficult to arrange it randomly, it is difficult to convince the public and damage the reputation of the family. ”

Lao Yugan nodded to show his understanding, the teenage Erhuan due to the infinite possibilities of the future, some of the 'seniors' of the third ring and the fourth ring can still barely obey, and a sixty-year-old Erhuan, Hugh said that others look down on themselves. first thanked him sincerely, and then said that he would report it tomorrow, and then sent Ming Gu away. When I closed the door and went back to the house, I looked at the empty room and the shiny iron farming tools in the corner, and then I remembered that there was still a small sorghum field. Shaking his head, he didn't have the heart to take a look, but he fell asleep with a little sleepiness caused by last night's insomnia.

The chaotic dream took a turn, and when I woke up and looked at the dark room, the old dried fish almost thought that the old illness had recurred. Rubbing his temples to relieve the feeling of drowsiness in his head, and judging from the light in the front building outside the window, it was late at night, and he got out of bed and turned on the light and went out of the room, with a meal on the dining table and a note written crookedly by his grandson 'for grandpa'.

The old dried fish looked at the door of the private room on the other side and sat for a long time, and then he trembled with his eyes and swallowed his chopsticks. After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, he returned to the room, the old fish was completely sleepy, turned off the lights and sat in the dark again, but suddenly felt a flower in front of him, and a black shadow like a human figure appeared in the slightly distorted air.

"What is it?" asked the frightened old fish.

"Oh, don't be nervous. A man's voice sounded, not a native crocodile dialect, but much more proficient than the Gentiles. Then the lights in the room came on, revealing a man with black hair and black eyes leading the face of a man, "I'm a 'good guy' to help you solve your troubles." ”

I figured out that it was a spatial teleportation just now, and the old fish was half cold. As the saying goes, I have never eaten pork and have seen a pig run, and the old dried fish understands that spatial teleportation is a skill that can only be played around the sixth ring, that is to say, this is a strong man in front of him who cannot be provoked.

Barely squeezing out a smile, the old fish smiled and said: "My lord, don't entertain the small, just take anything that looks good." ”

"If you say take it, I don't have to come here myself. The visitor looked left and right around the room, pulled over the chair in the corner and sat down, crossed Erlang's legs, and motioned for the old dried fish, who was standing nervously, to sit back on the bed. "Although you are very confident in my teleportation, you should still make sure, your name is Bluecheek and the Flying Fish Family?"

The monk can't run the temple if he can run, the old fish has never heard this, but he also understands this truth, he is blocked at home, and it is useless to be deceived, so he simply nodded his head to confirm, staring and waiting for the following.

"Very good!I'm Jiao Ming, I was awarded the status of baron the year before last, I forgot the name, the advisor of the young lord of the crocodile leader, I don't know if he was dismissed, but none of this matters. As soon as the man who called himself Jiao Ming stretched out his hand, he conjured out five strings of copper coins out of thin air, looking at the length of each string of 100 coins, which was a full 500 copper coins, and the total amount of debt.

"What are you?"

"Use this money to buy something from your old hands. ”

The old dried fish waved his hand again and again, and subconsciously answered: "There is nothing worth so much money on the little one." ”

Jiao Ming smiled and said the answer: "Your life." ”

Normal people can understand the meaning of these words, the old fish stared at the round eyes and got up and retreated to the corner, trying to grab something in front of him, but he didn't touch anything, and asked in a trembling voice: "You...... What do you want to do?"

"You're so many years old, why are you still shocked? If you're scared, this business won't be able to be negotiated. Jiao Ming was still laughing, but he didn't get up, so as not to further stimulate the old dried fish, just teasing a child and beckoning. "Come on, sit down and calm down, give you some time, think it through and we'll talk again. ”

In this way, the room fell into silence, and I don't know how long it took, the old fish asked dryly: "If the adults want to kill the small ones, they can do it, why give five hundred copper coins?"

"Good question! I'm getting more and more optimistic about you. Jiao Ming first praised it, and then replied: "These five hundred copper coins are to buy you to 'voluntarily' participate in two magic experiments, one is nine deaths, and the other is death." Note that it is voluntary. Specifics...... Well, you're literate, right?"

The old dried fish nodded, and then got a stack of two-finger-thick paper, and as soon as he opened it, he was dumbfounded, "The little one can't understand the lingua franca." ”

"Forget it, I didn't think it through. Jiao Ming took back the information and opened it, and muttered a long list of words to himself in a language that Lao Yu Dried Didn't understand, and then said: "The first is the experimental topic, the first is to verify the near-death state ring number enhancement method, and the second is to explore the survival of the appendage's magical ability after the death of the main body in the implantation of super-large soul fragments." The purpose of the experiment is, of course, for the advancement of the world's magical civilization, as well as the well-being and well-being of all mankind, as well as a small personal interest. By the way, you, as a participant in the experiment, will also go down in history. ”

It's normal so far, but the following words make the corners of Lao Yugan's mouth twitch.

"Experimental equipment, the main thing is that you are old. The protocol, well, it's not too late to wait until you agree. The conclusion of the experiment is still empty. Done, what else do you want to ask? ”

"What if you take the money away after I agree?"

"It's simple, wait until you go to the family in person to pay off the debt, and then conduct the experiment. After that, seeing that the old dried fish was still hesitant, Jiao Ming opened his mouth to persuade: "You should do this." Think about yourself, you don't have a few years to live, you work until you die, and the money you earn is not enough for a fraction, and to tell you the truth, the recurrence of cerebral hemorrhage is very likely, and if you don't do it, the old debt is not fresh and the debt is born again. Settle your own accounts and think about your family. And it can be seen and touched, debt pressure must be frugal, grandchildren are growing up when the body, malnutrition may be crooked melons and cracked dates, it is difficult to find a partner, plus debt, I am afraid that I want to find an ordinary family, this magic talent is completely wasted. And the invisible is amazing, think about it, this day and night desperately do things, the money has paid off the debt, can this mood be good? If you are in a bad mood, you don't have the heart to do that, maybe you will have two or three fewer dolls. ”

"Don't say it, a small agreement is. Old Yugan lowered his head, his thoughts were completely deviated, and he remembered what his uncle had said to him on the night he buried his eldest son decades ago.

Jiao Ming pretended to applaud in surprise, and praised with a smile: "You are so bold and conscious. I didn't say it!"

"You are a big man, I just want to die to understand, there is a question and please tell the truth. ”

"Asked. ”

"Is this a trap you set for the medical bill?"

"I just like your character, tsk, appetizing! Jiao Ming squinted his eyes and crooked his mouth for a moment like a gourmet taste, then put down Erlang's legs, sorted out his thoughts slightly, and said: "First of all, this is a trap, probably inspired by me, but it is really not set by me, and the target is all crocodile leaders, not just you."

It needs to be added that this is a matter of a hundred copper coins, but your case is very special, the flying magic warrior should have died, but the Zhonggaohuan magic warrior has long recovered, only you are stuck in a coma. I heard that in those three days, dozens of experts and high-ring magicians circled around you, craniotomy to find blood clots, formulate treatment plans, and tried the secret medicines of the royal family of the southern country with various diseases, to be honest, the expert diagnosis and treatment fees and medical expenses are really not unjust. It's a bit unkind to not have your family's consent. ”

Lao Yugan listened in a daze for a while, and then asked: "I'm just an old man in the ring, how can I be so valued." ”

Jiao Ming still said truthfully: "This is a long story again." According to my prediction, with the improvement of living standards and the increase of life expectancy, various geriatric diseases must be taken seriously, and the first one is cerebral hemorrhage. The documents issued by the Lord's Mansion to the hospital should have this requirement, and a special case like yours is simply a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence, so it is natural to pay attention to it in order to accumulate experience. Now that I think about it, the hospital should give you some subsidies for medical experiments, so in comparison, I am still kind. ”

The old dried fish finally figured out the general situation, and smiled bitterly, "In addition to this old life, there is also a deal for the small one, I don't know if the adults are interested in hearing about it." ”

"Listen, of course. Your old mental state is crucial to the results of the experiment, and this little thing is certainly as good as you like. ”

Lao Yugan told the experience of going to bury the mourner with his uncle and the uncle he just remembered, and finally made it clear: "I use this story in exchange for taking care of my stupid son." ”

Jiao Ming nodded again and again when he listened to the story, and finally not only agreed, but finally clapped his hands and praised: "Sure enough, there are smart people in every world, this set of theories about long vines, and then develop and condense them, it should be filial piety and preliminary social Darwin theory." ”

Nodding slightly, Jiao Mingshu stood up, paced around the room a few times, and said with a smile: "Considering that you have always been so conscious, I have thought of a new idea, which must be to your liking." ”

Of course, the old dried fish only has one choice.

"It's about inviting your family to experiment with it. The pressure hand motioned to the old dried fish that jumped up to calm down, and Jiao Ming explained: "According to the existing experimental results and the translation of the materials stolen from the theocracy, the soul fragment implantation technology. Specifically, it is the magic of creating a cow guard. ”

Seeing that the old dried fish was still confused, Jiao Ming sighed helplessly, and asked in a heuristic way: "Have you seen those cows pulling the bus? Those beasts are all the three rings of the water system, do you know? Then you haven't thought that animals can get magical talents, but can't people?"

The old fish blinked his eyes twice, then he understood, and asked tremblingly, "People...... Can people do it too?"

"It's really unheard of, this is already a mature technology in the two theocratic countries thousands of miles away. But there are also drawbacks, if you think about those obedient looks, if you change to an adult, it may not be so beautiful, although you can magic, but it is worse than a slave. Asking for a wife is also the owner who can sleep if he wants, what's the point. ”

After thinking about it for a moment, the old dried fish shook his body and nodded his head.

Consolidating his thoughts with explanations, Jiao Ming muttered to a magical idiot like this: " Then there are two ideas for the next, one is to reduce the size of the implanted soul fragment, limit the magic ability while maintaining the affinity of the precepts, and the other is to let the soul subject die or lose his mind, so that the soul fragment becomes an ownerless thing, but the first few experiments have failed, and as soon as the soul subject dies, the soul fragment will also dissipate, but I have noticed that as the soul fragment grows larger, it will dissipate more slowly, so this time I will use your old age to explore the upper limit of the size of the soul fragment that can be used by the soul fragment implantation technology, and the effect after that. ”
