Chapter 76
Cheng Hu
After learning a lot and a morning had passed, the leopard cat Xiaoling no longer had any hostility towards Cheng Hui, but instead felt a bit of sympathy.
Cheng Hui: ...
"Ahem, how about...let me try?"
Lin Qingyang was watching with amusement, seeing Cheng Hui, who was full of energy at the beginning, gradually become depressed and lost due to the torture of the secret technique, just like a cabbage that was dehydrated, wilting.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and stepped in to save Cheng Hui from the dire situation.
"Come, come quickly." Cheng Hui quickly pulled Lin Qingyang over.
It's not that I didn't try hard, it's just that this thing is too inhumane.
Cheng Hui didn't understand. Wasn't it just a secret technique? Couldn't he just talk properly? Why did he have to use something so mysterious?
He read that secret book as if he was reading advanced mathematics. He knew every word, but what did they mean when put together?
have no idea!
Cheng Hui: ..._(:з」∠)_
Enduring the tingling feeling in his hair, Cheng Hui quickly pulled Lin Qingyang over to take his place.
He was really scared. He had always thought that he was good at classical Chinese literature. He could even understand the travel notes in the library and read them with great interest. But why couldn't he understand this secret technique at all?
It's puzzling...
This time it was Lin Qingyang's turn to perform, and he decided to stand aside and watch the fun.
Don't think he doesn't know that the little brat has been laughing beside him for a long time. He wants to see how long it will take Lin Qingyang to learn.
However... he was hit.
Perhaps because he had been listening for a long time, Lin Qingyang was able to do it quite well right from the start. Xiaoling only gave him a little guidance and he had already mastered the first secret technique.
Cheng Hui: ???
"Look, how easy it is!" Xiaoling was also hit hard by Cheng Hui just now. Cheng Hui couldn't learn it, and she, as a teacher, was ashamed. Now that Lin Qingyang learned so quickly, it was enough to prove that it was not that she taught poorly, but that the student was too stupid and she could not lead him!
Cheng Hui: ...
He looked at Lin Qingyang expressionlessly. Lin Qingyang stared at him for a while, then suddenly turned to Xiaoling and said, "I think the move I just made was a coincidence. Maybe I won't be able to do it again if it happens again."
Xiaoling:???
What the hell? Are there secret techniques that can be performed by coincidence?
But then, Lin Qingyang acted as if it was just a coincidence, and failed in various ways.
Xiaoling: ...I’m telling you, I will bite you.
Cheng Hui was immediately amused by Lin Qingyang's behavior. He strode forward and rubbed his head vigorously, saying in a rough voice: "Alright, I'm a grown man and I don't need a child like you to comfort me. It's just a secret technique. Maybe it doesn't match my aura. Stop playing around and study hard. I can't learn it anyway, so I'll go somewhere else. This village is quite big. I hope that when I come back, I can already master these secret techniques. How about it? Can you do it?"
Lin Qingyang tugged at his hand, pulling it from his hair to his face.
Cheng Hui didn't notice it for a moment, and only felt that the touch under his hand suddenly became smooth and delicate. He pinched it twice out of habit, and looked down. Lin Qingyang's face was slightly red, and she was looking at him eagerly.
Cheng Hui: ...
Every time Cheng Hui looked at Lin Qingyang, he couldn't help but sigh, this little brat is a bit clumsy, but he is really good-looking.
He had never seen such a good-looking person in his two lifetimes.
Although his face was still young and his cheeks still had some baby fat, the unparalleled elegance of adulthood had already begun to emerge.
Eh... Such a pretty child, who knows which stinky boy will get her in the future...
Bah! What a stinky boy! Why do I think a little brat would like a man?
Tsk, it’s all because of this damn fiancé. He’s lost his mind and actually thinks Lin Qingyang should be with a man.
Ahem, I’ve gone off topic.
He pulled his wandering thoughts back and pinched Lin Qingyang's cute little face: "Study here obediently, and then we'll rely on you to find the Hundred Beasts Map!"
"Don't worry, leave it to me, there will be no problem." Lin Qingyang said implicitly. "Ahui, go out and have fun. Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
Cheng Hui walked away laughing, but suddenly he felt something was wrong.
Wasn't that conversation just now the opposite?
Shouldn't I, as an adult, be the one taking care of the child?
But then I remembered that torturous secret technique...
Cheng Hui: ...
Forget it, forget it. Everyone has their own expertise. Let Lin Qingyang learn the technology.
So, Cheng Hui went to stroll around the village with confidence.
Since the two were distinguished guests in the village, they were not subject to any restrictions in the village. Cheng Hui walked on the road openly and greeted some villagers from time to time.
There are many kinds of animals in the village, of all sizes. Through observation, Cheng Hui found that those that appear as cubs are basically children.
When I spoke with the village chief yesterday, he didn't elaborate on this situation, only explaining that their ancestors had accidentally entered the ancient tomb and had since thrived there. They'd grown accustomed to life here and only hoped for a more stable life ahead, not wanting to leave.
The credibility of this statement can only be said to be average. Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang discussed it and felt that the first half of this statement should be false, but the second half is more likely to be true.
However, since the first half has nothing to do with the two of them, they will not delve into why someone came here to live and turned into an animal.
Cheng Hui walked around the village and found that the villagers were very busy. However, the group of animal cubs were running around in the village, very lively.
"kitten!"
Cheng Hui saw the familiar kitten from afar and remembered that this was the name the old goat used to call out, so he quickly called out.
The kitten had spotted Cheng Hui from a distance and was about to run away: ...
He ran over listlessly and said reluctantly, "What are you doing?" He looked at Cheng Hui with a lingering fear in his eyes.
"It's okay. I see you have nothing to do, so why don't you take me for a walk?" Cheng Hui said with a smile.
The kitten looked very unhappy, but the little rabbit and puppy following him were circling around Cheng Hui very curiously.
Cheng Hui smiled, reached into his pocket, took out a few pieces of peanut candy and shared them with them.
These peanut candies were made under his guidance. Lin Qingyang was a man of words who loved to eat but could not make them.
Fortunately, Lin Qingyang's skills are quite good and he cooperates well with him. He recalled the tutorials he had learned online before and guided Lin Qingyang, and he really developed a lot of snacks.
If Cheng Hui were to ask what the biggest benefit of coming to the world of cultivation was, it was probably that he could eat candy without worrying about cavities or weight gain. So, he always had some snacks in his pocket at all times, including candy, dried meat, and cheese sticks.
These kids had never seen peanut candy before, so they took it one by one and stuffed it into their mouths. They imitated Cheng Hui in peeling off the skin and stuffing the peanut candy into their mouths, and their eyes immediately lit up.
"Delicious!" the little rabbit screamed happily.
"Hmm." The little puppy didn't dare to open his mouth to speak, for fear that the candy would come out.
The kitten held the candy in its mouth, feeling the sweet taste, and purred comfortably. The whole cat turned into a cat cake.
With just a few pieces of candy, Cheng Hui successfully became the most popular person among the children in the village, no doubt about it!
The kitten is the king of the children in the village. With him as an example, the children in the village quickly gathered around and looked at Cheng Hui with cute eyes.
Cheng Hui felt like he could hardly breathe.
There are so many furry little animals surrounding him, and he can rub each of them at will. Is there anything happier than this?
have!
That is, no one is watching him and preventing him from touching these furry things.
Cheng Hui suddenly felt that it was good not to be able to learn those secret techniques. It would be better if the secret techniques were more difficult so that Lin Qingyang could learn more slowly and he could play with the cat to his heart's content.
Yes, at this time the kitten was lying in Cheng Hui's arms, being petted happily.
Cheng Hui's cat-stroking skills have been verified by the stray cats in the university. No furry cat can resist it, no!
After petting the kitten, he started petting the bunny, then the puppy, the monkey, and the bear...
Cheng Hui showed a happy smile. He knew that when petting furry animals, he would treat them equally. No furry animal could escape his clutches.
He spent more than half an hour petting all the furry cubs in the village. Only then did he pick up the kitten with satisfaction and ask if there was anything interesting around.
The kitten lay in his arms, a jelly candy still in its mouth, and mumbled, "The village is so small, what interesting places can there be? Besides, would you find the places we kids like interesting?"
Cheng Hui thought about it and asked, "Do you have any recommendations? Oh, yes, books would be fine too. Uh, do you know what a book is? Or a jade slip or something like that?"
The kitten rolled his eyes at him softly: "Of course I know what a book is. I'm not a fool. But a jade slip..."
Cheng Hui quickly explained: Forget about the important jade slips or books, he just wanted to read something to pass the time.
The kitten rolled its eyes and said, "This one really exists, but the village chief and the elders won't let us just look through it."
Cheng Hui was about to refuse. Even the village children couldn't touch things, so how could he, an outsider, touch them? He might even get into trouble, so he decided to give up.
"Don't rush to refuse. I know that the records in those jade slips are things left by our ancestors, but the problem is... we can't understand them. We are not me, and the adults in the village can't understand them either. So it's not that they are precious. It's just... they are left by our ancestors after all. Even if we can't understand them, they are still cherished. The village chief is afraid that we might damage them, so he won't let us touch them. It's okay for you to go and see them. After all, you are an adult, you won't damage those jade slips, right?"
Cheng Hui thought to himself, of course I wouldn't, but to be on the safe side, he went to ask the old goat. He learned that the jade slips did have commemorative significance, and as long as they were not damaged, he could look at them as he pleased. Then he followed the kitten to the hut in the village that was specially used to store jade slips.
After he left, the tiger village chief came out of the old goat's house, looked at his back and asked, "Can he understand?"
The old goat smiled and said, "Who knows? It doesn't matter if you don't understand it. We don't have much to lose."
Tiger nodded and asked, "Have you really decided to stay? Perhaps this is our only hope."
The old goat shook his head. "It's hard to say. Things haven't developed in a way I expected." He looked up at the sky, a twinkle in his eyes. "The trajectory of the star map has changed. Let's take it one step at a time."
"Okay."
