Chapter 390 Lin Li still likes to play the friendship growth game
Wu Min: “?”
Is your face changing so quickly?
Since Lin Li is so good at changing his face, Wu Min thinks he is very suitable to be a plastic surgeon.
Ask him later. If Lin Li has an interest in this area, just send him to study in Korea after he graduates from high school.
It just so happened that Wu Min had some connections in South Korea. She knew Zhang Liang and Han Feizi, and she could introduce them to him when the time came.
Yes, this South Korea is dead.
Yes, Wu Min's intention of sending Lin Li to study abroad is also to destroy him.
"Speak some human language, Lin Li, do you want to go or not?" Wu Min put down his phone and made a final confirmation.
"Go," Lin Li nodded, took a deep breath and prepared his speech, then spoke:
"But after all, I have never been a teacher, so I don't know if I am a good teacher. It's okay if I am not a good teacher. What I am most afraid of is that, as you said, I teach him too well. If I teach him everything I have and he becomes another Lin Li, then does that mean Aunt Zhenzhen has no hope in life?"
"Besides, I don't know if I have a passion for this kind of thing, or if it's just a passing fancy. Also, I don't know if their children's personalities match my own, and whether they can accept it..."
"Because of these factors, my idea is to try the class."
"I can go to her house and try to be a tutor for free, and then we can choose each other."
"If it's suitable, I can continue to be a tutor if I have the opportunity in the future, and I will charge you money without hesitation. But if it's not suitable, I can't teach well or I don't like being a tutor, then I won't continue.
Let's say it in advance, so that you can have an explanation, and I will feel comfortable too."
Although there was a mission to push him, it was impossible for Lin Li to rashly agree to be a tutor.
After all, even if he only went there once a week, it would take up a lot of his already limited time, and since Lin Li himself was not short of money, it would be meaningless for him to continue to be a tutor after completing the task.
But at the moment, he didn't know whether the system would have subsequent tutoring tasks, and Lin Li couldn't say that he would only teach once.
So the words just used are just right. If there are no tasks, then just say that you don’t like being a tutor and leave. If there are follow-up tasks, then consider an appropriate extension.
"That makes sense. I'll tell her what you said." Wu Min raised her eyebrows, agreed with Lin Li's statement, and picked up the phone again to contact him.
"Okay, but mom, who should I teach? What degree do they have?" Lin Li only then began to care about the content and quality of the 'work':
"At present, the quotas for master's and doctoral students under my name have been filled, and I am not accepting new resumes for the time being. If Aunt Zhenzhen needs it, I suggest you apply to other doctoral supervisors."
My son's words are just bullshit. This is me, Wu Meili, skr~
Wu Min first sent the message on her phone before looking at Lin Li:
"She has two children. One is a junior high school student who just started the first year. She probably hasn't gotten used to it yet. Her grades have dropped significantly compared to when she was in elementary school. That's why she's a little worried. You're the one who's mainly teaching her.
There is also a first-grade child. You don’t have to take care of him. Just make sure he finishes his homework and then let him go to the living room to watch TV.”
"Okay, that's no problem." Lin Li nodded. Those below the first grade of high school are all ants. "When does the trial class start? Tomorrow? I'm free in the morning and afternoon."
Wu Min first looked at the reply message on her phone for a while, then shook her head: "I don't think I will have time this week. I have just sent you Aunt Zhenzhen's WeChat. You can discuss it among yourselves. There is no rush anyway. You can wait until the winter vacation..."
"OK."
After nothing else, Lin Li returned to his room.
Afterwards, he had a brief chat with Wu Huizhen. Since the winter vacation was too long, Lin Li simply made an appointment for next week.
However, the specific time has not been decided yet. Lin Li currently plans to do it on Friday night. If there are new arrangements by then, he can adjust it according to the situation. The time for both sides is balanced and there is no need to rush.
The rest of the time passed quickly with chatting in the group and practicing.
It's twelve o'clock midnight, December 1st has arrived.
【Update completed.】
The system update at the beginning of the month arrived as scheduled. Lin Li looked at the system interface which still had no title.
After the update at the beginning of last month, there are a total of five buttons on the interface, "Return", "Terminate", and "Current Reset Price: 200 System Currency". These three buttons can be used normally. In addition, two buttons without text, dark and unpressable appeared at the beginning of last month.
Now, after a month, the two buttons have also lit up, but there is still no text.
Lin Li took a look and didn't care anymore.
Curiosity killed Schrödinger. Even though these two buttons can be pressed, there is still no text on them. Unless he is facing a life-and-death crisis and needs to try every possible means, Lin Li will never take the risk to try it.
The new opportunity has been refreshed. After tidying up the room a little, Lin Li put on protective clothing, tiptoed to the bathroom, and prepared to leave.
Theoretically, the most suitable time to depart is when Wu Min is not at home. This way, we don't have to be as cautious as we are now, and we can be more fully prepared.
But Wu Min took a leave and will not go back to work until Tuesday, and the opportunity will be available again on Monday, so it would be a waste if not used.
This time, just use it to take a quick look at the situation.
A white light flashed.
Endless darkness instantly swallowed up Lin Li.
The time travel was successful, because Lin Li could feel that he was definitely not in the bathroom. His feet suddenly stepped on the sticky, cold unknown substance, almost sinking to his ankles, but there was only deathly silence in front of him.
The air was heavy, cold, and slightly pungent. The oxygen content did not seem to be high enough. Lin Li could feel that his breathing was speeding up.
"clatter."
It was difficult and slow to hold the phone while wearing protective clothing. With a snap of the fingers, the flame surrounding the electric arc rose in Lin Li's hand. With the system amplification, although he had only learned it for a week, the effect was remarkable, illuminating the surrounding environment.
With the help of the firelight, Lin Li could clearly see that there was a sticky swamp-like mud under his feet. It was stickier than shit, and it was difficult to lift his feet every time.
There seemed to be something hard embedded in the mud, which was hurting the soles of his feet.
"What are you doing to me again?"
Obviously, just as he expected, this was a completely new world. After sighing, Lin Li began to explore without wasting time.
With the help of flame lighting, one can see that the air is filled with thin, flowing gray-white mist. Occasionally, the mist will be violently disturbed in a certain area, forming a short-lived vortex, as if an invisible turbulence is surging in it. When the flame approaches, it will flicker as if being caught in the wind.
Lin Li simply kept walking forward without changing direction. The fog was sometimes thick and sometimes thin. After walking for only a few dozen meters, he saw a rock wall.
The rock wall itself is black or dark red, with a smooth surface or covered with sharp edges. It is covered with glowing fungus-like substances that spread like blood vessels. The rock wall is extremely high and extends upward, eventually disappearing into the darkness, with no top visible.
Lin Li raised his eyebrows and chose to walk in the opposite direction.
Then, after a few minutes of arduous trekking, we arrived at the opposite rock wall.
"So, am I at the bottom of the canyon?"
This time, Lin Li walked along the rock wall for a while and could not feel the end at all, so he couldn't help but come up with an idea.
My current situation is very much like being at the bottom of a very deep canyon, and the rock walls on both sides correspond to the rock walls of the canyon.
Lin Li immediately looked up at the sky. The places where the firelight could not reach were still dark.
Is it day or night in this world? If it is night, it is still normal, but if it is day... then the canyon he is in is a little too deep.
Is my current altitude negative or positive relative to the world's standards?
Lin Li decided to explore.
Although I didn’t bring a drone today because I was not fully prepared, it doesn’t matter because I am the owner of the mecha.
The A+ combat armor appeared in front of Lin Li the next second, and the hatch opened automatically.
However, Lin Li raised his eyebrows afterwards - the speed at which the hatch opened was a bit too slow compared to the past.
When the "remote cockpit" was materialized again, it was found that its operating efficiency was also extremely slow.
Lin Li thought for a moment, retracted the cockpit, and simply jumped into the cockpit to speed up the entry process.
The slime-like substance wrapped itself again, and then Lin Li saw the reason why the mecha was like this - the whole screen was covered with red warning signs.
"Silent field! Power system blocked!"
"Silence field! Energy weapons cannot be used temporarily!"
"Silencing field! Neural link system blocked!"
"..."
A variety of translucent warning messages mixed with incomprehensible words almost occupied the entire field of vision.
After Lin Li ignored it with one click, he found that although the mecha could still be controlled normally, it was as if the 0.1x speed key was pressed and its movements were extremely slow.
As for the originally planned flight, it was even more unrealistic, and even the drone behind it could not be activated.
The process of logging in and out of the mecha was still very fast, but unlike the gentle process before, it was more like the emergency system of the mecha that directly sprayed Lin Li out had taken effect.
Fearing that this environment would cause irreversible damage to the mecha, Lin Li immediately took it back to the [warehouse] and then took out his cell phone and flashlight.
They can still be used normally and all functions are intact, but in the current environment, the area that can be illuminated is really limited.
Seeing this result, Lin Li remained silent for a moment, then frowned slightly:
"Damn it, could this be the all-female world I've always dreamed of?"
The technological level of this mecha is obviously higher than that of my mobile phone, but why does the current environment affect the mecha and the remote cockpit, but not my mobile phone?
The most reasonable explanation is that this so-called "field of silence" is itself aimed at the technology that belongs to this world.
Wo day.
System, Uncle Lin is very happy that you can take him to the world of women, but Uncle Lin is very unhappy that you bring him to this place where there is no trace of any living creature.
Isn't this a waste of time?!
But Lin Li quickly calmed down:
“It’s okay, Lin Li, ah Lin Li, don’t forget, it was the same when you first went to the Immortal Cultivation World, there was no one there.
This place is probably a forbidden area in this world. Later I will meet three mecha super masters who have no bodies but only souls. They are also alone here to suppress the evil spirits in this world.
Then, whenever I show up, they will be crazy about me and give me all their life’s learning and gold coins…”
Lin Li paused while fantasizing about the goblin and shook his head:
"It's too bad to have no physical body. I'd better have a physical body. In the mecha world, I can't do anything without a physical body. I can't upload my consciousness into the mecha..."
With such expectations, Lin Li began to explore along the canyon on his own.
The discoveries made during the exploration also constantly verified Lin Li’s speculations.
——Lin Li gradually found a large number of mecha wreckages in various shapes, some of which were even piled up like mountains.
Furthermore, in some of the wreckage, Lin Li was able to find structures and parts similar to his own combat mecha.
Corroded, weathered, buried in silt, covered by strange-looking fungi or crystals, and flashing a strange pale light in the light, this is the fate of these mecha wreckages.
Judging from the degree of erosion, they must have fallen here over a long period of time. Some have been here for a long time, while others even look like they have only fallen a few days ago.
"strangeness."
Lin Li stood on the wreckage of a mecha and looked down with a frown.
Up to now, Lin Li had not seen any living creature.
It is not surprising that there are no living things in this environment. These mechas do not look like they landed on their own but crashed here. They must have died from the crash. But the strange thing is that Lin Li has not found a single corpse so far.
Most of the cockpits of these mechas are open, but a few are still closed.
But no matter which type it was, even the mecha that looked like it had just fallen off in Lin Li's eyes, when Lin Li went forward to check, there was no corpse except for the slime colloid that had completely changed color, deteriorated, and smelled similar to his own mecha.
This is also true for a mecha whose cockpit apparently did not open due to a malfunction and whose pilot had no chance to get out.
“So remote cockpits are standard in this world? Everyone just needs to work from home?”
"Or is this a place that needs to be studied, but because it's too dangerous, we're going to use a drone to explore it?"
Lin Li gave an inference, but it could not be verified.
Time flies in the exploration.
Apart from finding new mecha wreckage, Lin Li didn't find anything else worth mentioning.
No one was seen and no mission was triggered.
Due to the limitations of the equipment, the efficiency of this exploration is not high. We can only wait until next time to make preparations and come back to explore.
Lin Li stood on the wreckage of the mecha and placed his backpack and other items on the ground - intending to stay in this world. He then turned on a survival night light and alarm he had brought with him.
When both of them were turned on, there was a lasting light and a continuous dripping sound in this dark canyon.
Lin Li hoped that something would come to light during his absence, which was better than keeping things the same.
After doing all this, Lin Li disappeared at the bottom of the canyon.
bathroom.
Lin Li checked his body and found that he had brought back a lot of black mud, but he did not bring back any of the substances he had collected from the rock wall that had a faint fluorescent light and were suspected to be fungi.
It seems to be a living thing indeed.
…
on Monday.
This week's refresh opportunity is naturally used on the "Certificate of Heaven" which is no longer available for purchase.
A healing pill "Feather Restoring Pill" is refreshed.
[Fuyu Dan: Can heal all recent injuries of the body and damage to the essence, bringing the dead back to life, and turning flesh into bones.]
The price is more expensive than the "Longevity Pill", 150 system currencies per pill, and the purchase limit is 1 per day.
Healing pills will always be useful in the future, but since the price is not low, Lin Li did not buy them in advance.
Let's talk about it when we need it.
Lin Li came to school.
"According to unofficial historical records, Cao Zhi did not compose a poem in seven steps, but rather failed to compose a poem in seven steps - the "no" being the "no" as in "don't want".
At that time, Cao Pi looked at Cao Zhi, who was sobbing and trembling in front of him, and found that every time he swung his spear, Cao Zhi would cry out "No". On a whim, he asked:
"My dear brother, I heard that Xie Lingyun from the Northern and Southern Dynasties said, 'There is one stone of talent in the world, and Cao Zijian alone has eight buckets.' So, can you write a poem while I go in and out seven times?"
"If you can write a poem before you say 'no' seven times, I will let you go and never buy your ditch again. Otherwise, I will make you sell ditch forever."
Cao Zhi felt deeply saddened. He never expected that his brothers would come to such a point, so he chanted the classic poem "Seven Things Not to Do": "Boil the beans and make soup, strain the beans to make juice. The firewood is burning under the pot, and the beans are crying in the pot. We are of the same root, why are we so eager to hurt each other?"
The "gen" here refers to Cao Cao's root, and "jian" is a homophone. I don't need to say which one it is. "
"The ditch literature is still chasing me."
"Then I can't help but ask, why did Cao Zhi keep the history of his life as a beggar..."
“Tsk tsk tsk tsk, stop talking about gossip, breakfast is here.” At this time, Lin Li smiled and brought breakfast to everyone.
"Lin Li, I have only eaten five meals in the entire December. Since I am so pitiful, please treat me to breakfast today."
When Zhou Baowei accepted his sumptuous breakfast, he felt uncomfortable at the thought of having to give money to Lin Li later, so he begged humbly.
"Come on, Baowei. Today is only day 2. Did you eat five meals a day yesterday?" Lin Li raised his eyebrows.
"I was at home all day yesterday. What's wrong with eating a few more meals a day?" Zhou Baowei nodded.
"Awesome! If it was you that Zhen Guanxi killed, when Lu Zhishen asked for three pounds of lean meat, Zhen Guanxi would have known that you were here to cause trouble, and there would be no need for golden cartilage." Lin Li shook his head, "Inviting you for breakfast would harm you, so, I would rather invite a dog for breakfast."
After saying that, Lin Li touched Bai Bufan's dog head:
"Bufan, I'll treat you to breakfast today."
Bai Bufan could no longer bear it after hearing this. He looked up and glared at Lin Li: “Woof woof! Thank you, brother!”
"Fuck! I'm the one being scolded, why is it Bufan who's being treated?" Zhou Baowei had his head buried in his breakfast, but when he heard that, he raised his head indignantly, rushed over and took a bite of Bai Bufan's breakfast: "Half of this breakfast should belong to me!"
"Bad pig! Bad pig! Shut up, Cao Bao! I am halal, how can I eat what you have eaten?"
"Wait! I don't mean for you to take it all—"
Amidst the noise and bustle, Bai Bufan finally managed to snatch back his breakfast.
Battle damaged version.
"Why are you looking at me?" Bai Bufan turned his head and looked at Lin Li when he noticed his gaze.
Lin Li looked bored: "Bufan, so boring, I feel like there is no hope."
"This is what a shitty Monday is like. If you really have to go to the bathroom and take a dump." Considering that today is Monday, Bai Bufan felt that Lin Li's mood was normal.
Lin Li did not respond.
He just supported his cheek with one hand and turned to look out the window.
It seemed really boring. Bai Bufan shrugged and continued eating breakfast.
Lin Li watched for a long time. When the morning self-study was about to start, he suddenly turned around excitedly and patted Bai Bufan on the shoulder: "Bufan, how about having some fun?"
Bai Bufan spat out all of his breakfast back into the bowl, and immediately entered level one alert mode, running to the back locker with his breakfast.
What "Bufan, how about we have some fun?" Bai Bufan only heard "Bufan, how about we treat you as a fun thing"!
Seeing Bai Bufan's reaction, Lin Li felt a little hurt, and then motioned for him to come closer:
"You listen first and then respond. It's just a game of identity swapping."
"What? You speak first." Bai Bufan was still alert.
"From now on, and continuing throughout the morning, whenever one of us gets called, the other person will stand up, fold his arms, look up, look at that person through his nose and say, 'I'm XXX, come to me if you have anything to say.'"
This includes being called by name by the teacher - for example, when asking questions in class.
However, in order to prevent the two of us from hurting the enemy by a thousand and ourselves by eight hundred, after the game starts, any guiding behavior is prohibited, otherwise it will not count. Everything depends on fate. I think this is much more fun than the monotonous Monday."
"Guidance prohibited?" Bai Bufan frowned when he heard that, rubbed his chin, stared at Lin Li, and began to think.
This may sound innocent, but it is unlikely to be so.
This way of playing... Bai Bufan felt that being called by his buddies was actually nothing, the only fatal point and fun point was being called by the teacher.
But to be honest, when guidance is prohibited, the probability of teachers of all subjects calling their own names during class is much higher than that of calling Lin Li's name.
A little bit of winning.
And today is the morning reading for Chinese. I didn’t recite it well last week. If I use this morning self-study to check my recitation, it’s easy to call on myself…
"But there can't be a chain reaction, right? For example, if the teacher calls my name and you stand up, the teacher will ask, 'Lin Li, what are you doing?' If I stand up at this time, won't we both perish, but one will die earlier and the other later?"
Bai Bufan, who had already agreed in his heart, was still perfecting the rules.
"Okay, pause the game when you shout." Lin Li nodded, thinking it made sense, and his whole body revealed the temperament of someone who didn't care about anything and just wanted to find something to do.
"What if someone doesn't dare to stand?" Bai Bufan felt that it was stable and rubbed his hands.
"100 yuan. If there is any behavior of leading others to do something, a fine of 100 yuan will also be imposed and it will not be counted. People who cheat will never get an erection in their lifetime." Lin Li nodded.
"OK!"
"Now?"
"OK." Bai Bufan nodded, folding his arms and leaning back in his chair: "Since we can't guide them, my suggestion is that we all stop talking. If we keep silent, sooner or later the teacher will call our names."
"Okay." Lin Li thought it was feasible.
The two of them shut up tacitly.
"Bufan, have you written down the exercises for each lesson? Copy them for me." Zhou Baowei turned his head.
Bai Bufan looked at Lin Li.
Lin Li stood up quickly and threw his homework book to Zhou Baowei: "I am Bai Bufan, come to me if you have any problem!"
Zhou Baowei looked at these two idiots. Although he didn't know what they were doing, he respected them.
Lin Li sat down again, looked at Bai Bufan, and nodded.
This is just an appetizer.
…
Soon, the bell for morning self-study rang, and the Chinese class representative walked up to the podium with a textbook.
Bai Bufan looked towards the door expectantly, looking forward to Binbin's arrival, and even more expecting Binbin to call out Lin Li's name.
Soon, the teacher appeared.
Xue Jian.
Bai Bufan: “?”
Hey, how come your mother is Xue Jian?
Xue Jian glanced around the classroom and looked towards the corner.
That is the area where you are, but it seems that the direction you are looking at is more to your left.
Bai Bufan's eyes gradually widened and his pupils shrank.
etc--
"Lin Li, come out for a moment." Xue Jian didn't hear Bai Bufan's inner cry, he waved to Lin Li.
“…”
silence.
Then.
Bai Bufan turned his head mechanically, and saw that the so-called boredom and idleness that Lin Li had shown before had all disappeared at this moment. What was left at this moment was only a devilish smile that looked even more "I'm the boss" than "Azure Blue Sea".
Buhao! I fell into the trap!
"Fuck! You! Lin! Li!" Bai Bufan looked extremely ferocious and roared in a low voice.
Lin Li grinned: "One! Hundred! Dollars!"
“…”
Bai Bufan stood up quickly and looked at Xue Jian expressionlessly: "I am Lin Li, if you have anything to say, come to me!"
Xue Jian: “?”
