Chapter 437: The Year of Huangmei
"Young Master, I heard that your spiritual realm is very high, and you can sense all kinds of changes in this vast world. ”
"Don't hold me up so high, say, what's the matter?"
Quan Xiaohui stuck out her tongue, "It's been raining this year, isn't the end of the world really coming?"
"Isn't it just a continuous drizzle, what is there to worry about?" Ji Aojian had a disapproving expression, "Xiaohui, we were born in the water town of Jiangnan, so you should think that this is Huangmei The weather is good." ”
"But in my hometown, at most it is the rainy month, and now it is the rainy year. Quan Xiaohui reminded, "Young master, you can't take it lightly, isn't there such a sentence?"
"What?"
"Quantitative change leads to qualitative change. ”
"Congratulations, Xiaohui, you actually know how to understand philosophy. ”
"Young master, you have won the award. There was no joy on Quan Xiaohui's face, "It's not that I understand philosophy, but that qualitative changes have indeed happened." ”
"Oh, what kind of qualitative change?"
"You see, it's raining every day, and the light is insufficient, and this year's grain production has been greatly reduced!"
"Is the local hungry?"
"Not yet. Quan Xiaohui cleared her throat and reported, "On the one hand, we import a lot of grain from South American countries. On the one hand, we have greatly increased our marine fishing, filling the gap with fish and shrimp. ”
"Since there is no food crisis, what are you worried about?"
"It's just barely enough to feed the local population, and the food problem is so tight. How are you going to carry out those immigration plans that you have drawn up?"
"Makes sense, it's a real nuisance. ”
"Also, in addition to the poor harvest in agriculture. The industrial side has also been greatly affected. Quan Xiaohui continued, "Because of the continuous rain for a long time, the ground is so rotten that it is impossible to build roads and railways, and all kinds of houses and factories cannot be built, in short, the infrastructure construction has been in a state of complete suspension. ”
"Is it that serious?"
"It's that serious. Quan Xiaohui sighed, "If this continues, I don't think we will be able to enter the industrial age." It will also regress to primitive society. ”
Ji Aojian stood up, walked back and forth in the house a few times, and suddenly said. "Xiaohui, your vision is very good, and you are already an excellent internal politician. ”
"Ah, young master, you suddenly complimented me so much. People are embarrassed. ”
"As far as I can see, I watch the sky at night. The reason why the rain has not stopped is rooted in the north. Ji Aojian stretched out his hand and pointed at it, "There is an imbalance of yin and yang, and the earth's qi collapses, interfering with the natural circulation......"
"You say you watch astronomy at night, can you see the stars in such a rainy day?"
Ji Aojian glanced at her again, "Xiaohui." You've got a pretty good brain, and you know how to find other people's vulnerabilities. ”
"Young Master, you have praised me again. People are even more embarrassed. ”
"I said Xiaohui. Ji Aojian frowned unconsciously, "Why do I think you're a little different from before?"
"What's the difference?"
"You've never questioned me before. Ji Aojian thought to himself, I haven't seen you so naughty.
Quan Xiaohui was stunned and said, "This is what Miss Fourth taught me." ”
"What did she teach you?"
"The fourth lady said to me that you must have your own thoughts and opinions as a person, and you should not blindly worship you. ”
"Hey, I never wanted you to worship me, did you?"
"Young master, don't worry, I still admire you very much. Quan Xiaohui hurriedly explained, "Although I already feel that what you said may not be completely correct, this will not affect my loyalty and love for you in no way. ”
"Whether you worship me or not, that's your business, you don't have to explain it to me. ”
Ji Aojian waved his hand angrily, "You can go, go and deal with your official business." ”
"Then what about this year of Huangmei, and the end of the world?"
"There's nothing apocalyptic. I'm going to go to the Source and solve this problem. ”
In that case, I am relieved. ”
Seeing the mayor leave easily, Ji Aojian sighed, sat back in his chair, and thought: Why has Xiaohui changed so much?
Think about it carefully, when she was fighting for land in Lujiazhuang, she was a lively and naughty character. But after entering his own house, he was restrained a lot.
Could it be that she has passed the adaptation period and entered a state where the country is easy to change and her nature is difficult to change?
The head of the family was thinking to himself, when he suddenly heard a voice beside him:
"Brother, are you going out again?"
"Oh, a little thing, I'll go out and I'll be able to take care of it soon. ”
"Brother, you are really imposing. ”
Ji Aojian was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and saw his sister looking at him fixedly, and felt a little inexplicable, "What do you mean by this?"
"It turns out that saving the world is just a trivial matter for my brother. ”
"Wait, what are you talking about saving the world?"
"Didn't you go out this time to solve the problem that the rainy weather can't be stopped?"
"yes, that's not going to save the world, is it?"
"The merchant ships passing by in the port said that it is now raining even in Central America, and the rainy area is spreading to South America. Ji Qingsu said, "As far as the local area is concerned, the daily falling water is gradually increasing. ”
"What does that mean?"
"This means that the whole rainfall zone is expanding, spreading out from North America. If the whole world were under the rain all year round, even if humanity had not been destroyed, civilization would have retreated to prehistoric times. ”
Ji Aojian sighed, "The future you said is not impossible, but it may not be so serious. ”
"Now that the world is threatened, at this moment, you are still just planning to travel alone?" Ji Qingsu said loudly, "I want to go with you!"
"Xiao Su, do you know how the rainy season is formed now?" Ji Aojian waved his hand, "Actually, that root cause is very easy to solve, you don't need to care so much." ”
"I don't know why it keeps raining. But I know. If you want to save the world, it is never easy, so I must go with you. ”
Ji Aojian said embarrassedly. "But we have a lot of things going on here, and the training camp has only just been taught for a while, and I hope you can be the instructor on my behalf. ”
"Are these things more important than saving the world?"
Ji Qingsu walked in front of him, with a pair of clear eyes with an unshakable expression, "Brother, do you know." I've had enough of being here!"
"Since I came to this place, first the fourth sister asked me to be the mayor, and then you made me the governor. I know you're trying to get me experience in administrative matters. Therefore, I have been conscientiously and conscientiously fulfilling my duties according to your requirements. ”
"Over the years, the fourth sister has often gone out to preach, and you have often gone out to do big things. But what about me? I've been locked up in this city. Can't go anywhere!"
"I've told you before. The sisters are outside the sea and the sky, and they can experience their own new world in the realm of martial arts. At that time, I thought that one day, I would be free to roam between heaven and earth. But though I went to the South Seas and came to America, I was always designated by you to stay somewhere, and your purpose was to protect me, but at the same time to keep me in a cage. ”
"I don't understand. Am I never going to grow up in your eyes? Do you think I'm going to be in this life? Should you always do housekeeping, do logistics, and stay at home honestly?"
......
After a long time, Ji Aojian said softly, "Xiao Su, if you say that, I will be ashamed." ”
"That year, it was you who pulled me back from Huangquan Road, it was you who taught me to re-enter the martial arts, and it was you who let me know what rivers and lakes are step by step. In my heart, you have always been smarter than me, better than me, and so much better than me. ”
Ji Qingsu's face did not move, and he said slowly, "If you really think so, why do you still hide it from me every time a strong enemy comes?"
"Hey, where did you start with that?"
"On the fourth sister's birthday last year, a great grandmaster came to the door, and after the two of you dealt with it, you actually told me what it was to run into the field to confess. ”
Ji Aojian was taken aback, "How did you know about this, could it be that the fourth sister told you the truth later?"
"The fourth sister didn't tell me. Ji Qingsu snorted, "But the expressions of the two of you that day were very unnatural, and it was obviously a lie." Later, I thought about it, what is worthy of the two of you joining forces, and what is the truth worth worrying about me, and this is the only thing I can think about. ”
"Now that you can see it, why don't you say it?"
"Do I need to say it?"
A hint of gloom flashed in Ji Qingsu's eyes, "You two lied to me, and you were afraid that I would be worried." Besides, since I've already seen it, why bother to expose it and embarrass you. ”
"But in my heart, it's really unpleasant, you think I'm a child, you think I can't bear this kind of news, don't you?"
Ji Aojian was silent, and suddenly asked, "Do you think the two of us are lying to you?"
"Of course. ”
"Then why do you bless us so sincerely?"
"You perform so hard, why am I embarrassed not to give some praise and encouragement. ”
“......”
Ji Aojian fell silent again.
"Xiao Su-"
"How?"
"Haven't you really considered the possibility that I like the fourth sister?"
"I asked you that day, what you said about liking the fourth sister is that you want to be with her and talk often. ”
"That's right. ”
"So brother, do you want to be with me and talk often?"
"Of course. ”
"So that's not it. Ji Qingsu asked rhetorically, "I also want to be with my brother and talk often, is there anything special about you and the fourth sister?"
“...... When you say that, I am speechless. ”
Ji Aojian wondered if Xiao Su had seen too clearly, or if he didn't understand what love was at all. Or maybe I don't understand it?
"Brother, when you are in danger, you always have to hide it from me. But if I can see it, how can I pretend not to know?"
Ji Qingsu choked up and said, "Let me stay at home and wait for you to venture outside, I really can't bear it, I really can't bear it!"
A pair of hands pressed her shoulders, and Ji Aojian held back his tears from falling.
"I see, Xiao Su. This time, we're going out and fighting side by side. (To be continued......)
