Chapter 454 Mom, my girlfriend and I fell into the water. Who will you save first?
"Hey, Lin Li, let me ask you, in Su Shi's "Jiangchengzi·Mizhou Hunting", in the line "I, an old man, am reminiscent of my youthful passion, holding Huang on my left, Qing on my right, wearing a brocade hat and a sable coat, riding a thousand horses across the plain," what does "Huang" mean?"
"A. A yellow dog."
"B. A brass sword."
"C. The courage to attack the enemy head-on."
"D. Huang Tingjian, a friend of Su Shi."
When school was over on Friday, Qin Zeyu, who was walking side by side with Lin Li towards the school gate, looked at Lin Li and asked.
"This question is a bit difficult,"
Lin Li frowned slightly upon hearing this and touched his chin, but this state only lasted for a second. The next second, he responded to Qin Zeyu's gaze coldly, with a hint of contempt in his eyes:
"The difficulty lies in the fact that you... didn't even give the correct answer in the options!!!"
"What—" Qin Zeyu stretched out his tone and said, "Then tell me, what is the answer?"
“Haha, I learned this poem in junior high school. My junior high school teacher told me that the word ‘Huang’ is a homophone of ‘Huang’, which means emperor.
This poem expresses Su Shi's heroic desire to hold the emperor in his left hand and a hawk in his right, rush to the battlefield and parade the emperor before thousands of cavalrymen. It is a role model for our generation."
"Huh?"
“Hahahahahaha——”
Qin Zeyu was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing out loud.
He now seriously suspected that if Lin Li was allowed to preside over the Wudai Poetry Case, Su Shi would be demoted and at least his entire clan would be executed.
Forget it, ten clans.
All ant nests in the house need to be watered with boiling water.
"Any questions?"
"no problem."
"Then I'll park my car over there. I'll go over there first."
Lin Li also smiled. When he got close to the door, he pointed in a direction with his thumb, indicating that they were about to separate.
"OK, I'll go back and enjoy a perfect weekend too..." Qin Zeyu nodded, stretched his hands high to stretch his muscles, and then smiled: "Hey, Lin Li, it seems that you don't have a weekend off, but only a day and a half. Hehe, it feels even better~"
The reason why Qin Zeyu said this was naturally because after the Xuezhi Cup advanced to the semi-finals, the school would send a teacher to provide additional tutoring on Sunday afternoon.
The results of the preliminary round were announced on Thursday afternoon, so there was no reason for Lin Li to fail.
As the results came out, Task 4 was completed.
The rewards for the preliminary round mission are [Physical improvement: comprehension increased by 20%; random ability*1; system currency*150].
As for the ability gained, it is a useful but not particularly powerful ability.
[Hardening: Within one hour after using this ability, you can consume your physical strength to harden your body as a whole or in part. The amount of physical strength consumed is positively correlated with the range and degree of hardening.
This ability can be used once every 8 hours, with a maximum of 3 times.
When Lin Li saw this ability, the first thing that came to his mind was a certain key part of the body.
I tried it, and to some extent, it does work.
After hardening, even if the guy has been beaten to the point of spitting out juice, it will still hold its head high with pride and never lower its head or bend over.
Combined with the excellent recovery ability nowadays, it won’t be long before we are ready to play BO3.
A very extreme golden gun that can't be knocked down.
Wanshe refused to say goodbye.
Apart from this method of use, if used seriously, this ability also has certain practicality in modern self-protection.
Building a foundation strengthens the body itself. On this basis, Lin Li only needs to expend a little physical strength to harden it to a certain degree, so that the hardened area can reach the state of being invulnerable to swords and guns - the guns here refer to cold weapons.
In fact, it should be possible to prevent high-speed bullets from entering your body, but that doesn't mean you are completely afraid of those less powerful thermal weapons.
Just like modern bulletproof vests have never competed in hardness, but in the ability to disintegrate the kinetic energy of bullets. If you want to completely eliminate the damage caused by bullets, it is not very meaningful to just harden the skin. Instead, a large area after the hit area must be hardened as a whole to avoid internal injuries.
But no matter what, the future is promising.
Lin Li always felt that one day he would be able to see an out-of-control, hundred-ton dynasty sliding towards him and leisurely say to his friends, "It's all his fault, what are you afraid of?"
After hardening, it still has a negative impact on the flexibility of the area, which is a bit like "impregnable".
But "hardening" is more flexible. After all, when you need to move parts such as joints, you only need to cancel the hardening of these joints.
There is no harm in doing this except that it consumes more physical and mental energy.
As a series of tasks, with the end of the preliminary round, what Lin Li has hanging on the system panel now has naturally become the Xuezhi Cup rematch task.
[Task 4: Get the highest evaluation in the Learning and Wisdom Forum.]
[Quest Reward: Title: Seeker; Physical Improvement: 20% Increase in Comprehension; 1 Random Skill; System Currency *150]
[Seeker: When worn, comprehension increases by 20%; when using Taoism, the power and effect are increased by an additional 100%. This increase is calculated independently of the physical improvement.]
The task requirements are easy to understand. The Xuezhi Cup does not have a preliminary, semi-final and final process. The latter two are integrated. After the semi-finals are over in the middle of next month, the final awards will be directly decided, which are divided into special prize, first prize, second prize and third prize.
And the best is the special grade, which is the ultimate goal of this mission.
The sense of pressure was not too great. Although he had to compete with the geniuses of the entire Pingjiang City, Lin Li felt that as long as he was more serious and showed a more correct attitude, it would not be difficult.
It's just a city-level competition, and its value is relatively low.
For example, Chen Tianming may have really met a female teacher who was very lenient in grading, and because he predicted the topic correctly, he successfully advanced. The only one in Class 4 who did not pass the rematch was Zhuo Yongfei.
You know, Lin Li suspected that among the five people from Class 4 who participated in the competition, only Zhuo Yongfei was really there for the competition, and the others all had ulterior motives.
As a result, he didn't advance.
It's a bit heartbreaking.
Perhaps this is the case where flowers that you plant intentionally die suddenly, while willows that you plant unintentionally achieve their climax.
But it's not like other classes have such a high promotion rate. The overall level of Class 4 is very good among parallel classes. In fact, there were only 25 or 26 students who participated in the tutoring as usual on Thursday night, and half of the parallel class students were eliminated in the preliminary round at Nansang Middle School.
In the end, the ones who went to Pingjiang to participate in the rematch were these twenty or so people plus the students in the competition class who passed the preliminary round.
The tutoring session on Sunday afternoons is also held in the large lecture hall with all the students from the three competition classes - even if the competition classes do not pass the preliminary round, they must still attend this tutoring session.
"Hehehe, Lin Li, while you're studying hard for the competition on Sunday afternoon, I'll play tile-laying, CS, Three Kingdoms Kill, rubber-studded, and other games and share them with you and Tianming."
Qin Zeyu was a villain who had achieved success. The more he fantasized, the happier he became, and he felt that he had found his own superiority.
Lin Li was very calm: "I will openly touch the squad leader's thigh for the whole afternoon."
Qin Zeyu: "..."
Fuck you.
"What's wrong with touching her legs? I often touch Baowei's thighs, but they just feel greasy and don't make me happy at all."
Lin Li: "I will even secretly kiss the squad leader on the lips."
Qin Zeyu: "TAT."
"What's wrong with kissing? I kiss my baby all the time. Ugh, ugh, damn it, I can't go on."
It seemed that an invisible person had deep-throated Qin Zeyu, so he started to do it on his own.
"Ahhhhh I can't live anymore - go find your car, I'm annoyed just by seeing you!!"
After the sex, Qin Zeyu, who was a little bit broken, was furious. He kicked Lin Li and ran towards the school gate.
Tsk tsk, I guess he went home to see his mom.
Lin Li smiled, found his bicycle, and started riding home.
The traffic light on the sidewalk showed red, and Lin Li looked casually at the system panel.
In addition to the two tasks in the world of women and the Xuezhi Cup finals task, there are still tasks related to "blind dates" and "cigarettes" related crimes left on the panel.
Two times short.
As for blind dates, Yizhen Dating Agency originally holds an event once a month. The last event was held on the last weekend of November. This month is no different and the event will be held on Saturday afternoon.
Lin Li naturally signed up and still asked Zeng Ziang to act as his cover.
With the experience of not participating in the second half of the last time but still counting it as a success, Lin Li felt that he only needed to show up at the scene and didn't need to participate in any other links.
Of course, I still have to meet the "Three Dogs" tomorrow, but it doesn't conflict.
This week was the same as last week. They agreed to meet at four or five o'clock and have dinner together for the whole night. It would be no problem for Lin Li to rush over after the blind date was over.
As for the crime caused by cigarettes, to be honest, Yang Liang is more anxious than Lin Li.
When Yang Liang contacted Lin Li last night, Lin Li was stunned. He thought Uncle Yang was going to take the initiative to share the case.
Unexpectedly, Yang Liang just asked Lin Li from Tobacco if he had any clues.
After Lin Li said no, Yang Liang urged Lin Li to hurry up.
Lin Li originally thought that Yang Liang was lacking in performance, but when he asked——
"Yang Liang: Your uncle Yang has had trouble sleeping this week. Every morning before I wake up and check my phone, I take a deep breath, afraid I'll see a message from you. But when I don't, I panic even more. This matter of yours hangs over my head like the sword of Damocles. I'm afraid I'll see someone complaining about Black Silk Man again in my circle of friends one day."
"Yang Liang: Please, Lin Li, give your uncle a knife as soon as possible."
Uncle Yang was tortured so much that he barely even typed the punctuation marks.
In fact, it is understandable that what death row inmates fear most is not the moment of execution, but the journey to the execution ground.
By the way, in TV dramas, those ancient executioners would spray a mouthful of wine on the knife before executing the prisoner. Was it to disinfect it and prevent the wound from getting infected after the prisoner's head was chopped off?
The ancient people were quite nice.
I've gone off topic. Anyway, seeing the news about Yang Liang, Lin Li felt a little amused and helpless, so he asked about the stool last night.
Also received a progress reply——
"Stool: Brother Bai, yes, yes, there is a way."
"Stool: Li Sheng, do you still remember the gang member who helped you find the thief last time? Since you're looking for a criminal case, I've entrusted him with this one as well."
"Stool: He's still interested in this kind of extra income. After I told him, he started planning."
"Denzi: He's been telling his friends in society lately that the counterfeit cigarette business is lucrative and promising, trying to persuade them to quit their dirty work, abandon the shady business, and switch to another illegal line of work."
"Stool: The results are impressive so far. Many people have been persuaded and are even starting to work in this field. Li Sheng said it's okay to close the net now, but it's best to wait a while. Maybe we can catch a few bigger ones."
"Stool: Do you need me to contact him now?"
To be honest, after seeing the news about the stool, Lin Li immediately felt that the words "Li Sheng" and "careless friendships" were a perfect match.
But it was hard for Lin Li to tell. Was it that Li Sheng made friends carelessly and the people he met were more shady than the last, like immortals everywhere? Or was it that Li Sheng's friends made friends carelessly and ended up making friends with Li Sheng, a water ghost?
However, after seeing this news, Lin Li's response was that he would wait a little longer and not rush to close the net.
After all, according to the previous experience of Xi Ling criminals, a case does not require only one task to be completed, and the progress of the subsequent tasks will be jumped according to 2.
As for Task Three, only two progress points are required in total.
Then let Li Sheng continue to raise the Gu. If he can catch a few relatively large ones, it would be best to complete the task in one go, which can also save some energy.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at my doorstep.
Even before the door was opened, Lin Li could hear subtle sounds of voices coming from inside the house with his good hearing.
Lin Li raised his eyebrows, guessing that Wu Min had returned home and was making a phone call in the living room.
Lin Li was not surprised that Wu Min came back this week. There was no holiday for New Year's Day this year. Lin Li guessed that Wu Min had put together all the holidays and took a short vacation starting from today.
Although he went home without telling me in advance, there was no need to panic because everything at home was in order and Lin Li didn't leave anything shameful behind.
As for the guy juice that Lin Li had made this week by burning everything he had, Lin Li didn't preserve it by freezing it in the refrigerator or anything, but simply put it in a ring.
The space inside the "Qiankun Ring" is immobile, in fact, it remains static, and the juice placed inside will not deteriorate.
When it is time to hand it over to Zhu Ning, we will equip it with a refrigeration device.
As for the materials and tools that had arrived recently, Lin Li had also put them into the gourd in advance so that they would not be discovered and questioned by Wu Min.
Thinking of this, Lin Li opened the door. Wu Min was not making a phone call, but was sitting on the sofa chatting with an aunt whom Lin Li also knew.
"Mom, Aunt Xu." Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Lin Li took off his shoes and greeted them.
"Lin Li, you're back." Wu Min started with the classic and indispensable nonsense greeting.
"Uh-huh."
After changing into slippers, Lin Li went straight to his room. After all, he was too lazy to participate in the adults' pleasantries.
"Lin Li, are you going to take your mother out to play tomorrow?" Aunt Xu on the sofa did not follow Lin Li's wishes at this time, and directly fixed the conversation target on him.
Lin Li was slightly stunned, but before Wu Min could wink at him, he nodded quickly: "Yeah, yes, that's the plan."
Most people have some annoying relatives and friends, and Aunt Xu is one of them in Lin Li's opinion.
These relatives always make things difficult for you by saying, "I held you in my arms when you were a child." Maybe this is what holding you means.
In Lin Li's opinion, Aunt Xu likes to take advantage of others and meddle in other people's affairs.
I guess Wu Min rejected her request and used herself as an excuse.
"Where are you going to play?"
"We have to keep it a secret for now. We have to give my mother a surprise." Since the other party asked this, it proved that Wu Min didn't say it. Lin Li knew what was going on, smiled, and continued talking.
"Can't you adjust your time or come back earlier?" Aunt Xu frowned slightly. "Besides, there's no need to choose tomorrow to go out..."
"The tickets have already been bought, and I can't change them." Lin Li naturally did not change his words, but instead asked, "Auntie, what can I do for you?"
"Nothing, I just want to invite you guys to have some drinks, have some fun and celebrate." The other person replied.
I understand.
I want to ask Sister Min to pay the membership fee.
Some people hold banquets for the sake of benevolence and righteousness, while others hold banquets for the sake of business.
"That's a pity, Auntie. Let's eat it next time when we have the chance." After knowing the purpose, Lin Li responded perfunctorily and hurried towards his room, throwing out an excuse: "I'm going back to my room first. I have an online meeting for a math competition soon."
As soon as the door was closed, the conversation between Wu Min and Aunt Xu was blocked out.
His appearance may have made Aunt Xu feel that it was indeed time to leave. Not long after, Lin Li, who was lying on the bed, heard the sound of the door opening and closing outside.
…
Finally, there were no uninvited guests at home.
So when she closed the door, the fake smile on Wu Min's face became a little more sincere.
I am glad that Lin Li cooperated just now. It is rare that I feel that Lin Li is a good boy.
Wu Min walked to Lin Li's room and pushed open the door.
Lin Li: "Mom, I was just cooperating with you just now, but it was just cooperation. I can't really go out with you tomorrow. I already have plans. I'm going out with my girlfriend. If your girlfriend and you fell into the water, I would save you first. But if your girlfriend and you invite me out, and I hesitate for a second, it would be disrespectful to Yuying. So if you need to act out, then go out by yourself or stay at home and post on WeChat Moments. Don't blackmail me into really going out with you. That's crossing the line."
It seems like there is an uninvited guest at home.
So when she opened the door, the sincere smile on Wu Min's face became a little fake.
Everyone, now you understand why it is so rare to think that "Lin Li is a good kid"?
never mind.
"At least you, kid, know that Yuying and I fell into the water, and you know to save me, your mother, first. It's not easy." Wu Min sighed.
Lin Li frowned slightly when he heard this, and suddenly changed his tone: "No, Mom, I remember you can swim, so I'd better save Yingbao first."
"Yuying still can't swim?" Wu Min didn't refute but asked with concern.
Lin Li☉☉: “Yes, but I’d be sad if she choked on water.”
"By the way, Mom, I'm a little curious. If Yingbao and I fell into the water, who would you save first?"
“…”
"Haha," Wu Min smiled.
Then she gestured to Lin Li to go out and run some errands for her—
"Lin Li, don't fall into the water yet. First, take my feather duster and help you clean the room. There's a lot of garbage in this room."
