Chapter 17: Fooling Around

Looking at his parents' expressions full of joy and excitement, how much Lin Xiao wanted to tell them that he had awakened the power of genes.

But reason told him that he couldn't, even if a lie could make the second elder happy for a while, his physical condition could not be explained at all.

So after thinking about it, he still kept smiling and shattered his parents' illusions: "Mom and Dad, I'm ...... There is no awakening of genetic power. ”

Like a basin of cold water poured down his head, Father Lin looked at his son who was about to exceed half of his head in amazement, and said in surprise: "If you haven't awakened the genetic power, then how can you ......?"

Suddenly, his heart suddenly burst out, looking at Lin Xiao holding the two small shot put balls that he could only lift with great difficulty, and his mind flashed like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, a term that was taboo and unpredictable by countless people-body forger.

That's right, it's the Forge!

Only this explanation can explain Lin Xiao's physical state at the moment.

Looking at his father's face that turned pale from excitement in an instant, Lin Xiao couldn't guess his father's worries, he immediately gently put down the small lead ball, came to his father's side, took his father's rough big hand, and chuckled: "Parents, don't worry, you two elders, I'm not exactly a forger in this situation." ”

"Body-forgers?"

Mother Lin, who was still happy, didn't think about this aspect, but now that Lin Xiao said this, her smiling expression instantly froze, her face turned pale all of a sudden, and she couldn't help but exclaim.

Lin Xiao's head suddenly became as big as a fight: "Oh, Mom, Mom, didn't I say it, I'm not exactly a body forger, it's not as terrifying as you think." He was a little helpless, and then explained seriously: "Didn't you ask me why my room stinks so much? ”

Although Lin's father and mother were worried, they still patiently decided to listen to their son's explanation.

"Mom and Dad, my situation, he said it was really a bit mysterious." Lin Xiao smashed his mouth, and immediately began to talk nonsense: "Didn't I feel a little bad yesterday, so I wanted to go for a walk in Zilin Garden." But who would have thought that when I walked to the purple maple forest, I was suddenly hit by a soft thing on my head, and when I picked it up and looked at it, guess what? It was actually a green apple with a golden glow, and it was still soft and soft in the hand. Then I was a little thirsty when I was walking, and the apple didn't look like it was poisonous, so I smashed it and ate it......"

"Oh, silly boy, how can you eat what you picked up!" When Mother Lin heard this, she immediately cared about and blamed.

"Wait!" On the contrary, Father Lin frowned for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and subconsciously asked, "Are you sure that apple is glowing golden?" ”

"Well, yes, I just saw that apple with a golden glow, it was amazing, and I ate it."

"Yes, it must be!" Suddenly, Father Lin slapped his thigh, and said with a shocked excitement: "Golden pith fruit, it must be golden pith fruit." ”

And this time, Lin Xiao was surprised in his heart.

I go, how will Daddy know about this fruit? It stands to reason that this kind of rare name should be two or three years later.

Lin Xiao was puzzled, but on the surface, he still pretended to be ignorant, and asked in unison with Mother Lin: "Golden Pulp Fruit?" ”

Father Lin nodded affirmatively: "Yes, Golden Pulp Fruit, I also overheard it from your grandfather." ”

"Where's Grandpa?"

"Well, that's right, your grandfather once talked to someone, and that person seemed to be reporting something to your grandfather, saying that he had found a fruit, like a green apple, with a golden light, and the country came to the conclusion that it can cut the muscles and wash the marrow, so that ordinary people can strengthen their muscles and bones and have divine power."

Lin Xiao was really surprised now, listening to what his father meant, grandpa's identity doesn't seem to be simple.

In my memory, my grandfather was an iron-blooded veteran who had participated in interstellar wars. But many years ago, grandpa had already returned from the army, and since then he has been living in the ancestral house of Guangxing City, but for some reason, grandpa suddenly announced two years ago that he was going to take grandma out to visit the mountains and rivers of the Star Country, and the family couldn't persuade him, so he could only let him go.

Oh, by the way, here by the way, in today's society, there is also a super benefit of turning on genes is that life can be extended. However, once the power of genes is activated, all the cells in the body will be strengthened to a certain extent, and because of the strengthening of the body and cells, the metabolism of the human body will also slow down.

This change is different from the past era.

In the past, there was no gene awakening in the world, and once the metabolism of the human body slowed down, it either caused cancer because the production of free radicals was too slow, or it became obese because it could not consume fat.

But since the human body has turned on genetic enhancement, this problem has been perfectly solved. So that the delayed aging of human beings is no longer a dream, and there are even legends that there is a realm of martial gods above the martial emperor, and at that time, youth will be eternal, and heaven and earth will live together.

Of course, these are all later words, so don't mention them.

Let's just say that at present, because of the genetic enhancement, although Lin Xiao's grandparents have passed the age of ear shun, all aspects of their body functions are similar to those of middle-aged people in their thirties and forties.

So although the family felt a little abrupt about the decision of the second elder, they didn't worry too much, and after a little advice, they let the two old men go out.

But what surprised Lin Xiao was that the Golden Pulp Fruit, a high-grade treasure fruit that was only widely recognized by the world after two years, was now only qualified to be accessed by martial artists above the sky level.

And where did his grandfather know about it? As far as Lin Xiao knows, although his grandfather is a veteran who has participated in the war, his strength is actually an ordinary bronze warrior, and the only mystery is that his grandfather never said everything about him in the army, including which unit he served in, and he never revealed it to his family.

Moreover, in the previous life, even if the Light Star City was destroyed, when Lin Xiao was struggling in the predicament of life alone, his grandparents never appeared again, and it can be said that there was no news.

is such an old man, how could he know such a secret treasure as the golden pith fruit?

Lin Xiao didn't understand, even in his last life, he heard this kind of curiosity from a senior with a solid family background and a strong background during college three years later.

At that time, when it came to the efficacy of this strange fruit, he almost didn't envy Lin Xiao to death. It can be said that this fruit is simply a godsend tailored for people like them who have failed to turn on their genes.

It is rumored that this golden pith fruit with its own light was discovered by General Li Yi, Admiral of the Star Nation's four-star ship, on a green planet 3,000 light-years away from the Earth's home planet. Research experiments have confirmed that this fruit has the high-level effect of washing tendons and cutting the marrow, even if it is a person who has not turned on genetic enhancement, he can also have the strength of a black iron level martial artist after taking this fruit.

And this happens to be Lin Xiao's most convincing reason at present.

Coupled with the preconceived notion of Father Lin's divine pen, it saved Lin Xiao a lot of tongues.

"So, Xiaoxiao, the smell in your room is ......"

"Well, it should be the impurities in my body, anyway, I felt hot when I slept last night, and then I lost consciousness, and when I woke up again, it will be like this."

Regarding Lin Xiao's words, Father Lin no longer doubted him.

After all, a person who has not turned on the power of genes suddenly has strength, and only this explanation can make sense.
