0257_avoid trouble

"What is this for?" Ji's mother asked in wonder.

Me: "I'm shopping."

Ji's mother: "I heard scratches, quality problems and so on? Are they trying to cheat you?"

Me: "No, I asked them to cheat me."

Mother Ji: "..."

Me: "Don't worry, I have a measure." It's really troublesome for them to get a result.There is no quality problem in the inspection → scratches are caused by forcibly breaking the protective film → there is a problem with the cat → there is a problem with the person with the cat → check the identity of the person with the cat...

Why bother yourself?Although it takes a bit of effort to confirm the cause of the scratches—after all, the fur ball didn’t use spiritual power, it used pure physical damage—it may even be impossible to find out, so it’s really a quality problem or I don’t know when it was damaged by something. If I break the protective film to deal with it, I won't think of cats, let alone cat owners, but I really don't have to gamble for a few spirit beads.

——The point is that I am not Shi Bolin, I am not confident in my luck.

After I came back from Wanxin, when the big brother used me as a lucky talisman, the big brother was unlucky.After sending a message, it turned out to be stained with waste liquid medicine on Danxiu Peak, and one hand was emerald green, and it took three days to get rid of it.And I, who is said to be a lucky charm, stood one meter away from him when he was stained with the waste liquid medicine.I didn't get a drop of it myself, but I didn't play the function of a lucky charm to prevent the elder brother from getting it or let him get less.

After the hand turned green, the big brother told me that my amulet had completed its function and I could move freely.

I guess, this sentence should be translated as: all bad luck is over, if it doesn't work, you will quit.

But I will definitely not feel guilty for my ineffectiveness, this matter is completely self-inflicted.I told him that it was Shi Bolin who got the luck bonus, and it was useless to arrest me, if I had to listen to the advice of my conscience, I deserved it.

0258_ buy is waste

Once the cat food and cat treats are settled, it's easy to choose other things.Most of the appearance is eliminated, half of the handle is eliminated, and the rest is all.

During the whole process, Ji's mother looked at me like a prodigal son.

Really, auntie, you haven't seen the way my mother spends money.I have already been regarded as a stingy person by the whole family.

Speaking of titles, it's quite messy.For example, when addressing mother, some call mother, some call mother, and some respectfully or jokingly call mother.In addition to the local customs, it is probably that the mortal world calls mother more, and the cultivation world calls mother more.Then I tend to call mother on more formal occasions, and call mother more in daily life.What's more, when you are wearing a fancy dress, it is recommended to call mother, and when you are wearing a vest and flowery pants and pulling your shoes, it is recommended to call mother.

Anyway, there are all kinds of unspoken rules that are customary, cumbersome, and some contradictory, but on the whole, they are used indiscriminately.

Since the pet store offers delivery, it saves me the trouble of opening a storage box.Ji's mother said: "It should be like this. It's a good thing you can figure out how to use fairy treasures to store mortal things. The consumption of opening and closing the box once is enough to buy the things put in."

Well, I am familiar with this sentence, and I often say to my brothers and sisters: Your consumption of sending a snack is xx times the price of the snack itself.

It can be seen that there are indeed similarities in the way of thinking of miser.

After leaving the pet shop, I went to the biggest supermarket in Jijia Village, and picked up a bunch of things. During the period, I kept saying to Ji's mother: "Anyway, you look distressed, why don't you go home first, out of sight, out of mind? "

Ji's mother caressed her heart: "you bought so much, what will you do when you leave? You said you can live here for a year at most. "

Me: "These consumables should be thrown away in a year."

Ji's mother: "Is the cat climbing frame thrown away in one year?" She hasn't recovered from the prodigal family in the pet store.

I pointed to my backpack: "Put it in and take it away."

Ji's mother's expression at that moment may be called: It's better to throw it away.

No, in fact, you have overestimated the consumption of switching and storing magical instruments. The large and luxurious cat climbing frame is still more expensive than the storage consumption.It’s just that it’s not very practical. The fur ball doesn’t like to crawl around. It prefers a comfortable cat nest to a cat climbing frame, but the cat nest in a pet store is certainly not as good as the winged cat and spirit beast produced by Yunxia Zongyu Beast Peak. nest.So... you are right, buying it is a waste.

0259_ quirks

After leaving Yunxia Sect, the daily training cannot be missed.

Sword cultivators generally cannot train indoors. This is not only because of the lack of activity in the small space, but also because sword cultivators need an open temperament and unscrupulous broadness.A narrow space with obstructions will depress sword repair, that is, it will hinder cultivation.

So I have to find an open place to hide and go out at night every day.

It's not hard to find a place. After all, because the planet is big enough, and there are spaces within the space created by formations, etc., the usable area per person is very large, and there are so many no-man's lands.

It’s just that it’s troublesome to go out and come back every day. Although there are hidden means, as the saying goes, if you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts.I wondered what reason to think of to deal with the scene in case I was seen.

Do you continue to use the excuse that the rich second generation has many eccentricities?Running around sneakily without sleeping at night, doesn't it seem like a quirk that can be fooled?It seems that the safety of the neighbors is also involved?What if someone thinks I have evil intentions?

My older brother who is experienced in remote consulting assignments.

My brother said: "Just kill me and say that I have eccentricities, don't talk about other things, ordinary people will make up their own brains."

Me: "Then what if they think I'm a psycho killer?"

My brother: "Then run away. Anyway, as long as you didn't really kill someone, your false identity will not be canceled by the mortal world, and the mortal world will not come to the cultivation world to interrogate you for unwarranted pursuit."

Me: "Is that what you do?"

My brother: "Otherwise? I am a passer-by in the mortal world, and I really live like a mortal, without any abnormalities? I just go to do tasks, not to experience life. Of course, I come here because of convenience. You don't After thinking so much, with your face, as long as you are not standing next to the dead body with a sharp knife in your hand, no one will think you are a murderer, and it’s fine if people don’t pretend that you are a victim.”

What's wrong with my face?Who told you that beauty must be the victim?You are biased, you know?

My brother: "What am I prejudiced against? You are beautiful and very dangerous. If you don't believe me, go to a bad place and see how many vicious incidents you can encounter in one night. Of course, it's just a prelude. I believe you don't It will give the villains a chance to show off, and I’m sure you’ll get them down as soon as they think about it.”

Me: "I don't catch thought criminals."

My brother: "That's because you haven't really encountered anyone staring at you with dirty eyes."

...Why should I discuss this topic with you?A good citizen like me who loves quiet will not go to that kind of noisy entertainment venue.

In the evening when I lived in No.20 of Jijia Village for nine days, I heard the doorbell and thought it was a courier, but when the door opened, I saw Ji Zuo.

"Surprised?" Ji Zuo asked with a smile.

So I was even more surprised.First of all, Ji Zuo and I have almost no contact these days, she has no reason to come to me, and second, Ji Zuo's face is more paralyzed than mine when facing strangers, what does this smile mean?

If it wasn't for Ji Zuo being the target of my mission, these two anomalies would be enough for me to knock on the door directly.

But I still have the difficult task of gaining Ji Zuo's favorability, so I can only twitch the corners of my mouth and ask, "What's the matter?" That's what I asked, but my eyes have already landed on the plate in her hand.

"As you can see," Ji Zuo held up the plate, "my mother asked me to bring it to you. She said she was afraid that you would look haggard from eating fast food every day."

This is a joke?I took the plate and tentatively invited: "Come in and have a seat?"

Ji Zuo finally refused in a normal manner: "No, the family is still waiting for me to go back for dinner."

Oh... "Wait a minute," I said, turning around and going back to pick out a plate, put some fruit I bought today and handed it to Ji Zuo, "Fruit after dinner."

Ji Zuo: "What are you buying?"

Nonsense, price is something I need to consider? "Not expensive." I told her honestly.

Ji Zuo smiled again, so much that I couldn't help but ask her: "Why are you so kind to me today?"

Ji Zuo: "It should."

What?I tried to figure out the mission description repeatedly, but I didn't pick out the person who might be kind to you.

Ji Zuo: "Since you came, my mother has almost stopped nagging me about my affairs. There is not enough time to just nudge about your affairs every day."

I:"……"

Ji Zuo: "Besides, after comparing with you, she seems to think that I am very obedient, caring, and satisfying to her. Recently, I have always been kind to me. I suddenly got a favored little daughter instead of being annoying The treatment of bear children. Thank you."

Me: "...you're welcome?"

0261_Movie

After that day, Ji Zuo and I officially established diplomatic relations—although I don’t seem to have contributed at all to the establishment of diplomatic relations, it’s all thanks to Ji’s mother’s help.Well, the quest guidance from the Yunxiazong quest office is really reliable.

Then the fourth and fifth steps should be considered now, discussing with Ji Zuo about saving and killing monks.

Discussion of monks in the mortal world is not a rare topic, on the contrary, it is one of the enduring hot topics that almost everyone can say a few words about.When two strangers greet each other for the first time, if there is nothing to say, talking about monks is as safe as talking about the weather.

In the text, film and television works in the mortal world, there are endless stories about monks.Although most of them were either exaggerated enough to make the monks ashamed that they could not do it, or they just borrowed a background story that had nothing to do with cultivation, but at least it promoted the familiarity of ordinary people with the group of monks.Even if it is a strange impression of chaos and twists and turns, anyone can express some opinions on cultivation.

But although I'm not very familiar with Ji Zuo now, I'm not completely unfamiliar with it. It's a bit abrupt to suddenly talk to her as a monk?And it's easy to be alarmed.It is better to find an introduction and cut in naturally.

Hmm... How about going to a movie about self-cultivation?

"Ah? Me and you?" Facing my date invitation, Ji Zuo was very surprised, "Watch this?"

...Why did you focus on 'this'?What's wrong with this one?I wonder.

The one I chose is the only cult-like movie currently in theaters. If you don’t watch this movie, you will have to wait another month for the next movie of this genre to be released.Of course, you can also watch old movies from the past.But watching old movies at home and going to the cinema to watch new movies, I think the latter is less deliberate.

And the introduction of this movie called "Cultivation of Fate" also meets my needs.It tells the story of a girl who rescues a monk in distress. During the rescue process, the two have a good relationship with each other, but the monk chooses to leave the mortal world after recovering from his injury for revenge.Before leaving, the monk made an agreement with the girl to come back within ten years, and the girl agreed, but after ten years passed, there was still no news from the monk.The deeply affectionate girl is afraid that the monk has forgotten the agreement with her, and even more afraid that the monk will die in the process of revenge.She was suffering from constant guessing, whether the love between the two could be consummated, and where the future of the couple would go...

Regardless of how bitter the officials are, anyway, saving the monks is exactly what I need, so I said to Ji Zuo, "If you have no objections, I'll go and book tickets?"

Ji Zuo: "...you can..."
