"Sure enough, compared to winter, the warmth of spring makes people happy." Standing under the rain eaves, looking at the blue and black mountains in the distance, the warm mountain breeze blows.
Lin Tuo felt warm all over his body, and his mood brightened.
Of course, the main reason for the ease of mind is to let go of one thing.
Unrest in sandbox 2 has temporarily leveled off and acceleration has been turned back on.
The blizzard destroyed the original ecology of the world. Although humans are still alive, it is clear that the "complexity" of the sandbox and the degree of civilization have regressed to a large extent.
This also directly caused the flow of time to speed up again...
At the same time, the sandbox itself is also continuing to repair itself. When it stabilizes and can withstand the influence of external forces, Lin Tuo can unfreeze the world, just as he promised.
But before that...
"I'm so tired. It's time to rest for a few days." Stretching lazily, Lin Tuo widened his narrowed eyes and looked at the empty martial arts arena, feeling that something was missing.
"By the way, Huaxi..." Lin Tuo was busy with the sand table these days, and he hardly had any thoughts, and he didn't communicate much with Huaxi.
According to the previous schedule, she should be punching at this time... but she was nowhere to be seen.
This made Lin Tuo startled, and then he noticed some strange noises coming from the "next door" room not far away.
"What are you doing..."
Curious in his heart, Lin Tuo deliberately walked over with a light footstep. He didn't push the door, but just came out of the open window.
The layout of Huaxi's room is similar to his study, with a table next to the window. When Lin Tuo walked in, he realized that the sound was an old computer, which was playing a Chinese listening test.
In front of the computer desk, there was a test paper covered with crooked, nonsensical words.
"Big Sister Li Shan" Hua Xi was lying on the test paper with her head sideways, sleeping soundly, with a pool of crystal-clear tears overflowing from the corner of her mouth...
"..." Lin Tuo fell silent for a moment.
And at this moment, probably because he blocked the sunlight, the sleeping girl suddenly hummed, and raised her head sleepily.
Looking blankly in front of him, there was a brief silence on the expressionless face that appeared outside the window.
A huge horror called "being awakened by the same table while sleeping in the self-study class and then finding the head teacher standing outside the window" crossed the barriers of culture and region, and hit Huaxi at this moment.
"Mom! Teacher!"
Dazed for a moment, she instinctively exclaimed, the ballpoint pen on the table rolled to the ground, and then looked nervously at Lin Tuo outside the window, wanting to explain something, but didn't know where to start .
After hesitating for a few seconds, listening to the Chinese listening questions on the computer next to her, Huaxi suddenly felt sad, her mouth curled up, and tears fell out like money.
Seeing this scene, Lin Tuo, who had just finished acting as "Savior of the People of the Four Kingdoms", "Speaker of Gods and Humans", and "Mysterious and Powerful Observation Angel", panicked and was at a loss:
"Huaxi, what's wrong with you?"
"Woo... teacher... Chinese... Chinese is too... too difficult... I can't do this set of questions... I can't do it..."
…
…
ten minutes later.
After finally calming the crying Huaxi, and letting her wash her face, Lin Tuo sat on the cement platform under the eaves, looking at the warm sun, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Language learning was indeed the task he initially assigned:
Practice martial arts to lay a solid foundation
Practicing breathing technique to improve physical fitness
plus a language and culture subject
The first two Huaxi have done very well. One relies on hard work and persistence, which she does not lack, and the second relies on talent. Thanks to her status as a "supernatural person", her advancement is also rapid.
The problem lies in the cultural class. Some time ago, Lin Tuo would take time to teach her, but these days he was busy taking care of the sand table, so he didn't take care of it.
Huaxi himself knew that this area was a shortcoming, so he adjusted the amount of training and allocated more time to this area.
But it might be because she has zero foundation, it is indeed too difficult to learn, or she lacks relevant talents. In short, Huaxi reads Chinese, like reading physics in a fog, and directly destroys the mentality of herself, the only "disciple in the house".
Thinking of this, Lin Tuo couldn't help laughing out loud...
"Teacher, were you laughing just now?" At this time, the door opened from the inside, and Huaxi, who had washed his face but his eyes were still red and swollen, came out with a serious face and asked.
I saw Lin Tuo under the eaves with a calm face, how could there be any smile
"You heard it wrong." With a clear cough, Lin Tuo skillfully put up the air of teacher's dignity, stood up, and criticized:
"What did you look like just now? Martial arts practice, forge ahead, how can you be made to cry by a set of papers? It seems that your homework during this time is not solid enough."
"I... I was wrong." Huaxi lowered her head in shame, wringing her hands and pointing her toes together.
Lin Tuo looked down at her, hummed, seemed to be satisfied with her attitude of admitting her mistake, paused, and continued:
"But it seems that it's really too slow for you to learn the language by yourself. Well, how about it, I will teach you a... well, the ability that can be learned, and when you master it, it can help you learn the language as soon as possible."
What
Under the eaves, Huaxi, who was bowing her head and being scolded, was stunned for a while, as if she didn't hear clearly, she raised her head:
"Is there such a power? Can it be learned?"
When she saw Lin Tuo nodding her head in confirmation, she was in a trance for a while, joyful and collapsed at the same time.
The joy is that I can finally deal with those incomprehensible listening and writing without staring stupidly. As for the reason for the collapse...
At this moment, she really wanted to ask:
Why did you take out such a good thing until now
Of course... She just thought about it in her heart and dared not say it.
Lin Tuo next to him was also a little helpless. He had no choice but to research this not long ago.
He can quickly master the language himself because he bought common language skills from the "Derivation Sandbox", but it seems that he can only learn this thing by himself.
At least until now, Lin Tuo has not found a way to "teach" it to others.
If you make an inquiry, the "Derivation Sandbox" will not give an answer.
I don't know if it doesn't have this function, or he doesn't have a deep grasp of this strange thing.
In short, there is no way to solve the problem through the system.
Originally, he wondered if he could find a spell that would be convenient for language learning from those magic books, but he found nothing.
In the process of this great transfer, he also obtained a lot of spell-related books from the four countries in the name of "hobby collection". They were all carefully selected by various countries and temporarily piled up outside the isolation cover on the edge of the sand table.
Not fully transferred to Lishan yet.
While waiting for the meeting, he took the time to search and found a spell.
Coincidentally, this spell is also called "Common Language", but compared to the version provided in the mall, the effect is much worse.
Lin Tuo studied it. This spell can't make people master a strange language in a short time. It takes some time to learn actively. It's always a bit troublesome, but it's enough.
Just to help Huaxi solve the language problem.
"Cough, but obtaining this ability is not without conditions." Under the eaves, Lin Tuo said calmly.
Huaxi sniffed: "What conditions?"
"Test," Lin Tuo stretched his muscles, and said, "It just so happens that I'm free right now, so I'll test your martial arts training results during this period, and if you pass, I'll teach you, how about it?"
"No problem!" Huaxi nodded confidently, as long as it's not a Chinese test, everything else is easy to talk about!
"Okay." Lin Tuo also smiled when he heard the words, walked to the center of the martial arts arena, turned and said to Huaxi, "Attack me, let me see if your fighting skills have improved during this time."
Huaxi nodded, hummed, and also took a few steps forward, standing still.
In the next second, there was no expression on her face anymore, and she entered a state of extreme concentration. The air was quiet for a while, and under the warm sunlight, the sound of the wind disappeared.
A vague aura radiated from Huaxi's body.
"Huh." Lin Tuo raised his eyebrows, with some surprise in his eyes and a little bit of interest.
next second.
"Peng!"
Huaxi's legs slammed on the ground, and his figure was running fast, like a vigorous leopard, reaching the limit of speed in a very short moment.
"Okay." Lin Tuo's eyes became brighter and brighter. In his opinion, compared with what was shown in the wasteland not long ago, the speed of Huaxi at this moment has increased by about 30%.
Not only that, while running at high speed, Huaxi also instantly caught the "loophole" in Lin Tuo's stance that Lin Tuo deliberately exposed.
Swift as the wind, fierce as thunder!
"Crack!" With a punch, the sleeve was whipped against the arm under the wind pressure, making a crisp sound.
However, at the moment when the fist was punched, Huaxi saw a smile on the corner of Lin Tuo's mouth who was close at hand, and his heart tightened.
I hurriedly wanted to twist and move, but it was too late.
Relying on stronger physical fitness and skillful skills, Lin Tuo made a wrong step at this moment and avoided Huaxi's attack by a small margin. Immediately, he cut his arms, clasped Huaxi's waist and ribs, and gave a light push.
Immediately, Huaxi felt as if struck by lightning, and half of his body felt numb, but he also took advantage of the momentum, jumped up like a flying swallow, stalked behind Lin Tuo, and launched another attack.
Then it was dodged as expected.
For a while, on the martial arts arena, Lin Tuo stood in place, his body only moved within one meter around, while Huaxi was like a butterfly, trying to attack from all angles.
Both of them are extremely fast.
Lin Tuo was thinking about the test, so naturally he didn't put in all his strength, and focused on avoiding, and occasionally shot, hitting Huaxi's weak point. Although the latter was in great pain, he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
In an instant, weak willows drooped and sunlight flooded the entire martial arts arena, and there was only a series of crackling sounds in the air.
"Crack, crack, crack, crack..."
A moment later, as Lin Tuo raised his knee and bumped it, Huaxi finally flew upside down with an ahhh, and fell to the floor with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
"Okay." On the martial arts arena, Lin Tuo watched Gulu get up and Huaxi, who was about to pounce, raised his hand to stop, and then smiled in the latter's expectant eyes:
"Yes, you are qualified."
Hearing this, "Big Sister Li Shan" vented her anger and lay down on the floor, feeling the slightest pain from the gifted ability to repair the injury, giggling sillily.
On the opposite side, Lin Tuo was helpless when he saw this, thinking what would happen if he passed a small test... It would be silly to be beaten up like this.
"No way." Lin Tuo shook his head and laughed, and immediately asked Huaxi to wash it up by himself, then turned his head and returned to the study, ready to search for the translated "low-profile general terminology".
However, as soon as he entered the study, he saw the phone on the table light up.
"What happened again?"
Opening the group chat curiously, Lin Tuo suddenly realized:
"Yangcheng Self-cultivation Hall is officially open."
