Chapter 39: The Butterfly Effect
"Xiao Nan, are you sure that person is your friend?"
In the main city of the Green Dragons, after Manchester United said what happened after the Dragon War was hung up, everyone was speechless in surprise for a while, and finally Long Zhan asked first.
"I'm pretty sure, and it's not just me who knows him, we..."
"Wait!" Long Zhan interrupted his sister, "I'll talk about this later." ”
Manchester United looked at the dragon battle and immediately understood what he meant. How could the world know that they were fighting lava lizards in Xicheng, and the time and place were not bad at all, it was obvious that there were undercover agents for each other in the gang. If Manchester United rashly said the public, then it would be equivalent to indirectly telling the news to the world, so Long Zhan would be so cautious, after all, the stakes are very high, and this person seems to be a friend and foe, so it is better to keep it as secret as possible.
"You just said you met in the Novice Village?"
In a secret room, Long Zhan carefully inquired about Zhang Yang.
Manchester United nodded: "Yes, at that time, I was teaming up with a few classmates to kill wolves, who knew that he suddenly appeared and attracted a large number of wild wolves, and I blamed him for killing us, who knew that he killed all the wolves alone." ”
"One person killed a large number of people, or when he was a novice?" Long Zhan was also a little incredulous for a moment, "Then do you know what profession he has turned into?"
"Cultivator. ”
Manchester United was most impressed by this, so they spoke out immediately.
Who knew that Long Zhan was motionless as if he had suddenly been enchanted, "Cultivator?! It turns out that there really is such a profession." ”
United said wistfully: "yes, we were very curious at the time. ”
"Xiao Nan, do you know the latest research results of the old guys?" Long Zhan suddenly changed the subject. "Is there any results from the study?" Manchester United curious.
"Yes, you can check it out when you go offline. ”
Long Zhan was a little surprised, if that result was true, then this "Little Monk of the Tree-Shaded Mountain" must also be a master in reality, but he couldn't be sure to what extent he had reached, but judging from his performance, it seemed that he was not quite the same as us, was it just a matter of the profession of cultivator? Long Zhan fell into deep thought for a while.
"Brother, that gang building order is still in his hands, what are you going to do?" Manchester United's words interrupted Long Zhan's musings.
Long Zhan thought for a while and said, "It's best for you to come forward and discuss it with him, and we will buy it from him." ”
"That's early, the world is proud of the fact that he also knows that the Jianbang order is in his hands, maybe he will use this time to make some small moves. Manchester United reminded.
Hearing this, Long Zhan looked at his sister a little strangely, and said in a half-loud voice, "Xiao Nan, what do you think of that kid?"
"What's going on?" Manchester United didn't react for a while, and after a while, she suddenly looked at Long Zhan viciously again, "Dare to make fun of me, build a gang and make your own way!"
After saying that, he walked out without looking back.
Long Zhan hurriedly chased after him, "Just kidding, hey, kidding..."
Taking off his helmet, Zhang Yang moved his limbs and walked to the living room. It's dark outside, and my parents haven't come back yet, and they've never been so late before, so maybe the previous work was relatively not so tiring, it seems that they have to ask what kind of work they do, or they're really worried.
"Brother, haven't your uncle and aunt come back yet?" Tongtong walked out of the vacation.
"Well," Zhang Yang walked into the kitchen, "I'll cook for you." ”
Tongtong also followed, "I'll help you, I can cook for you when I learn." ”
After a while, a table of meals with a rich aroma was ready, and Tongtong was already drooling when she saw it, but when she saw that Zhang Yang didn't eat, she didn't move her chopsticks.
"Tongtong, you eat first. ”
"No, I'm going to wait for my uncle and aunt to eat together, but I also cook today, so I want them to try my handiwork." ”
But time passed little by little, and before I knew it, it was already 22 o'clock.
"Squeak!"
The door was opened, and it was Zhang Yuenan and Yang Ping who returned. Seeing the little food on the table that didn't move and Zhang Yang and Tongtong waiting on the side, they were stunned at first, and then hurriedly walked over.
"Son, why don't you and Tongtong eat first, the food is cold. ”
"Tongtong is going to wait for you to come back and eat together, she is also cooking today, and I want you to try her skills. ”
"Really?" Zhang Yuenan said happily: "Then you have to taste it." ”
After speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, "It's really good, it's very talented!"
"Dad, the food is cold, let's eat it hot. ”
After eating, Zhang Yang took the opportunity to wash the dishes and asked Yang Ping what she and her father were doing, and why they came back so late.
Yang Ping was hesitant at first, but finally told Zhang Yang the truth.
Since that incident, although they are all innocent, there are still some rumors that they colluded with the leaders to embezzle public funds. Once such a negative thing appears in the finance industry, it is basically difficult to find a job in this industry in the future.
In addition, as if someone was deliberately targeting them, every time they went, some people would appear to add fuel to Jiang Zhengming's affairs and talk about it, so they couldn't find a job.
In the end, there was really no way, Zhang Yuenan and Yang Ping found a job in a food processing factory, the work content is very simple but the labor intensity is very high, from 8 o'clock in the morning to 9 o'clock in the evening every day, ordinary people are not willing to do this work at all.
Zhang Yang didn't speak again, he knew that it was useless to say some comforting words, his parents still wanted this job, unless he had the strength to change all this. Back in the room, Zhang Yang lay on the bed, tossing and turning but couldn't sleep, he simply stopped sleeping, but got dressed and quietly left the house.
Because it is adjacent to the East China Sea, the summer in X City is not particularly hot, and it is late at night, so the streets are particularly cool. Zhang Yang thought about his own business, walked aimlessly, and unconsciously came to the beach.
At this time, the seaside is quiet, only the sea Lang is caressing the sand rhythmically, making a rattling sound. Zhang Yang sat on the beach, looking at the boundless sea in front of him, and had a lot of thoughts for a while.
From an ordinary high school student at the beginning, to an unknown half-cultivator, all this seems to be a dream. Now, although I have extraordinary abilities, I can't change anything, and what should happen will still happen.
At this time, a big question arose in his heart, what was the purpose of his cultivation, what was the purpose of cultivating the truth, for the sake of the Xingchen Sect, for the pursuit of the Heavenly Dao, for the pursuit of eternal life? No, no, Zhang Yang immediately denied these answers.
If you think about it, you have changed something unconsciously. If he didn't cultivate himself, Tongtong would fall off the cliff; if he didn't have such ability, Situ Qingyun would suffer an accident; if he didn't make a move, the passengers on the bus and Officer Mo might all be killed. Although it may seem like it doesn't matter, if you remove the fact that you are a cultivator, these tragedies will really happen.
By the way, Zhang Yang suddenly thought of a word, change! is change, he doesn't just want to change his own destiny, change the fate of his family, maybe he can't change it at present, but that's because his strength is not enough. Taking a step back, hasn't Tongtong's fate changed because of himself. Strength, Zhang Yang has never been more eager for strong strength than now.
"Ahh
Zhang Yang yelled, and the fantasy of his obsession with strength had already made him fall into a bit of a madness. He felt the heat in his mind, as if another fire was burning his nerves.
"Hot!"
Zhang Yang frantically ripped off his shirt, "Hot!" Zhang Yang's eyes seemed to be about to erupt into fire, and he ran to the beach frantically, "Plop!"
Jumping into the icy water, the surface of the sea immediately rippled in circles, but it disappeared after a while, as if nothing had happened.
