Chapter 21: I Am an Ordinary Person
The winds in the summer holidays are all heatwaves. Many people are reluctant to go out during the day.
"Are you going to go back?" Lu Zimo asked.
"Well, I'll go back tomorrow, I've been here for half a month. I still really want to go home and help my parents!" said Yuan Mengcong.
"Well, then I'm not going to force you to stay. You are now a cultivator, you must hide yourself well, don't let those people find you!" Lu Zimo reminded with some worry.
"Can you feel the breath on me?" Yuan Mengcong asked suddenly.
"Uh, no, no, how did you do that? Lu Zimo asked in surprise.
"It's nothing, it's just a magic weapon given to me by my seniors. Ordinary level cultivators can't feel that I have such an aura. So Zimo, you can rest assured!" Yuan Mengcong said.
"I'll take you to the station tomorrow. I graduated in one year. Work hard. Lu Zimo said.
"Do you think it's still necessary for me to study?" Mr. Yuan said.
"Absolutely. I feel like a lot of things are still going according to the rules. Think of yourself as an ordinary person. Lu Zimo said.
"Ordinary people, do you think it's still possible?" Yuan Mengcong asked rhetorically.
"Absolutely. I was born and sent to my grandfather for training. I went straight to junior high school when I was going down the mountain. I found that there is really a lot of joy in the worldly world that you can't feel in the mountains. That's the world of ordinary people. It's really amazing. Don't you think it's good to be an ordinary person?" Lu Zimo said.
"Maybe! I'm an ordinary person, I think it's the same as those powerful people! They are used to eating delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and in turn they think that coarse tea and light rice are also delicious. And those who are poor don't even have a bowl of noodles. Maybe that's how it feels between them!" Yuan Mengcong said helplessly.
"Where do you say this? Lu Zimo asked.
"What position? I think it's because I have these abilities!" Yuan Mengcong said.
"Mengcong thinks too much. Lu Zimo said.
"Maybe! That's why the success of those who lay the foundation step by step is stronger than that of the nouveau riche!" Mr. Yuan said.
"Let's go back early, although I've already met Uncle Lu. But I think he still hopes to experience the life of this ordinary person!" Yuan Mengcong said.
"Mengcong. Lu Zimo said.
"Hmm, what's wrong?" asked Yuan Mengcong.
"Don't you think you've become different?" Lu Zimo said.
"Has it changed? No!" replied Yuan Mengcong.
"Maybe you can't feel it now, maybe you won't feel it later. I can feel it, though. Lu Zimo said a little lost.
"Zimo, I think it's because you're thinking too much!" After speaking, he hugged Lu Zimo.
Early the next morning, Lu Zimo sent Yuan Mengcong to the station. Before leaving, Lu Zimo told Yuan Mengcong that she might not go when school started. Yuan Mengcong didn't ask what the reason was. After all, Yuan Mengcong is not as fuss about such a topic as before.
After getting out of the car, Gong Lei and Haining waited for Yuan Mengcong at the intersection of the village early. "Brother Cong, you're back!" said Haining.
"Are your injuries healed?" asked Yuan Mengcong
"Alright. Don't worry, big brother, I'm not that vulnerable. Henin said calmly. Yuan Mengcong felt that Haining had changed a lot when he came back this time.
"Big brother Gong Lei has something to tell you. Haining said at this time.
"Let's go home first!" Yuan Mengcong said.
arrived at Yuan Mengcong's house. After talking to his family, Yuan Mengcong and the three came to Gong Lei's house.
"What's wrong with Gong Lei?" asked Yuan Mengcong.
If it had been before, Yuan Mengcong would not have asked this kind of question. After all, Yuan Mengcong has never fought or caused trouble since he was a child. But things have happened again and again recently. may have begun to slowly wear away the fear in Yuan Mengcong's heart.
"Big brother, that's right. My aunt came to my house two days ago and said that my cousin was beaten by some people inexplicably before the holiday. And my cousin is a guy who never gets into trouble. Gong Lei said.
"And then. Yuan Mengcong didn't think that Gong Lei had anything to do with what he said.
"My cousin's name is Lixuan. He seems to be in the same class as you. Gong Lei said.
"Lixuan, a very familiar name! It seems to be from the same class as me. Yuan Mengcong said.
"Big brother, let's just say it! When Gong Lei knew that you were in the same term, he wanted you to talk to the person who beat him. Would you like to give a reason? was beaten inexplicably like this. It's uncomfortable for anyone. At this time, Haining said.
"Do you know who beat him?" asked Yuan Mengcong.
"It seems to be someone named Wu Dongyang. Gong Lei said.
"Wu Dongyang," Yuan Mengcong knew this person. Mo Fei's kid said that even Ma Tao, who is the son of the mayor of the town, doesn't seem to dare to provoke this Wu Dongyang.
"Big brother, what's wrong with you. If it's okay, if you can't speak, I'll call a few brothers to him. Gong Lei said.
Yuan Mengcong was silent for a moment and said, "It's okay, I'll ask when school starts!"
"The eldest brother Wu Dongyang said that he didn't want to see my cousin appear at school when the school started. Gong Lei said.
"yes, I see. And change your savage nature. Don't be impulsive every day. Yuan Mengcong said.
"Oh! Gong Lei said with some loss.
"I'll go home first. School starts next week. Do you have any plans?" asked Yuan Mengcong.
"I'm going to work in the city. Gong Lei said.
"What about you, are you still going to school?" asked Haining.
"Yes. I better go to school first! I don't want to go into society so early. Henin said.
"Hmm. Okay, then I'll go back first. After speaking, Yuan Mengcong went home.
Back at home, Yuan Mengcong went to his grandparents' yard. "Mengcong is back. Grandma said happily. "Well, I'm back, what are you going to cook today!" Yuan Mengcong said happily. "Stew, let your parents come over for dinner later. Grandma said happily. "Okay. "I'm going to sue them.
Night has quietly arrived again. Recalling that the family had a meal at noon, they were happy. Yuan Mengcong smiled, a heartfelt smile. He really hopes that this ordinary happiness will be fixed. "Aren't ordinary people bad? I'm an ordinary person!"
Maybe the ups and downs that ordinary people can experience have their own happiness. One day, one year, one life.
But can ordinary people really enjoy this qiē?
