Under the pavilion.
Li Tai's frown from time to time naturally fell into Li Zexuan's eyes. He also understood this very well. The novel "The Story of a Mortal's Cultivation of Immortality" was indeed not outstanding at the beginning. This can be seen from its early results. inferred.
But there is a saying: "If you can endure loneliness, you can maintain prosperity."
Although the system background of "Mortal" basically comes from Xiao Qian's masterpiece "Piaomiao Journey", in the novels before "Mortal", the cultivation system is only the background of the story. The protagonists all upgrade rapidly, and the story still relies on other conflicts to advance. Just like World of Warcraft, upgrading is only a small part of the content and is mainly supported by other plots.
However, in "Mortal", upgrading has become the main content. Every small progress is extremely difficult, but it can make readers get stuck in it and unable to extricate themselves. The entire story revolves around how to upgrade each step. Through accumulation step by step, the myth of "Mortal" is finally created.
As the story progresses step by step, Li Tai also discovers the advantages of "Mortal". Different from the unrestrained and passionate "Journey to the West", the main plot of "Mortal" only revolves around Han Li's training and upgrading, and every step is full of setbacks. , Li Tai could not help but put himself into the role as he listened.
The Qixuanmen, the "Eternal Spring Gong" which is ordinary on the surface but actually has great mysteries, and the mysterious vial he picked up by chance, all tempted Li Tai to continue listening. His fat right hand held the brush and kept beating on the rice paper. , he didn't feel tired at all, and his heart was completely immersed in another world as Li Zexuan told it.
Even Li Tai is like this, let alone Tiedan. The protagonist of "Mortal" has the same name and surname as him, and the family situations of the two of them since they were young are very similar, so Tiedan has already listened to it twice. I was completely immersed in it, as if I was Han Li in the book, following the ups and downs of the plot, twists and turns.
Lan'er had no love for this story. After listening to it for a while, she felt that Han Li was not as interesting as Sun Houhou. She said hello to Li Zexuan and went back to the backyard.
Li Zexuan also breathed a sigh of relief. He just called Tiedan over before, but he didn't expect Lan'er to come over too. Many plots later in this novel were not suitable for her to read. It was just the right time for the little girl to leave.
"Han Li dropped a drop of green liquid on a green Sanwucao, turning it into a yellow Sanwucao with centuries-old medicinal properties. A few days later, he dropped a drop of green liquid on it, and its age turned out to be... It has been strengthened for more than a hundred years.
Seeing that this was indeed effective, Han Li kept repeating the same approach for more than two months. Whenever new green liquid was produced from the vial, he dropped it on the Sanwucao, and the Sanwucao lived up to his expectations. Its leaves gradually changed from yellow to yellow-black. It turned from yellow-black to black, and finally after its leaves completely turned black and shiny, it became a rare thousand-year-old three-wage grass in the world. "
Li Tai's eyes widened and he was shocked: "It turns out that this mysterious vial can infinitely accelerate the elixir of ripening. It is so unbelievable that Han Li must have completely changed his mind now."
Tiedan also heard some shortness of breath, as if he was excited about getting the mysterious vial.
"Okay, that's it for today!"
Li Zexuan clapped his hands and refused to continue talking. He had been talking for almost an afternoon and his throat was filled with smoke.
"Huh? Stop talking so soon?"
Li Tai was dumbfounded. He had just entered the scene, and now it was gone. What was the big deal
Tiedan also had regrets on his face, but he did not raise any objection.
Li Zexuan said angrily: "It's already this hour, and you're still talking nonsense. Qingque, why don't you go back quickly, be careful because the market will be closed soon."
Li Tai waved his hands nonchalantly and said: "It doesn't matter. At worst, I will stay at Mr. Li's house tonight. Sir, please tell me twice more quickly, otherwise I won't be able to sleep at night!"
A large part of the reason why he chose to attend Li Zexuan's class at the Arithmetic School was to facilitate the listening of Li Zexuan's stories. After reading "Journey to the West", he had been in a "book shortage" for a while, and today he finally got his wish. He had just had an addiction, but now it stopped suddenly. How could he bear it? Not to mention that the market was closed at this time, even if blades fell from the sky, he would not want to leave!
When Li Zexuan heard this, his old face darkened, and he roared in his heart: Damn it, what do you mean by "you'll be my house tonight at worst"? This damn fat guy is really thick-skinned!
"No, I'm tired today, I will never talk again!"
Li Zexuan refused in a low voice.
Seeing his firmness, Li Tai knew that the matter was non-negotiable. He thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll come back tomorrow!"
"I won't talk about it tomorrow, I have something to do tomorrow!"
Li Zexuan quickly said that he would go to the workshop tomorrow to see how the printing department was preparing. The students were waiting to use the teaching materials the day after tomorrow!
Li Tai became angry immediately and wanted to curse on the spot, but when he thought of the consequences, he shrank his neck and said angrily: "What can happen to you? Could you lie to me again?"
"Believe it or not!" Li Zexuan didn't bother to explain. He stood up and went to get the manuscript of "Mortal" copied by Li Tai.
"Then I will follow you tomorrow... Hey, hey, I wrote this, why did you take it away?"
"I plan to sell this story for money in the future. You are only allowed to listen to it, and you are not allowed to take it away to avoid leaking the secret!"
Li Zexuan said with a smile.
Damn... trough! Li Tai was sure that Li Zexuan did this on purpose, to retaliate against his previous unwillingness to hand in his homework in advance. In his opinion, although the novel was interesting, how much could it be sold for
Li Tai gritted his teeth, turned around and left.
"Tsk tsk, this little fat guy's calligraphy is pretty good!"
Li Tai: ...
At this moment, he really wanted to turn around and go back to find Li Zexuan to fight for his life!
… …
Here, Li Tai is obsessed with "Mortal" and can't extricate himself. Over there at the Imperial Academy, Meng Wenhao is obsessed with thinking and can't extricate himself.
The sun was setting in the west, and Meng Wenhao still stood stubbornly under the ginkgo tree, looking up at the treetops. Because he maintained this posture for a long time, and the water was not dripping all the time, his already thin figure became even more shaky.
The drum of the Imperial College was beating, and the students rushed out of the teaching building and came to the entrance of the Imperial College. They found that Meng Wenhao was still standing here, so many people gathered around and pointed at Meng Wenhao.
"Oh my God, why is he still here? Is something going to happen after standing there for so long?"
"I think he probably got some stimulation and turned into a fool."
"That shouldn't happen, right? Meng Wenhao's grades have always been very good, how can he be stimulated?"
"No matter, I'm going home. This person is either a madman or a fool!"
"Yes, yes, go home!"
… …
After a while, the crowd of onlookers dispersed one after another. Facing the setting sun, their shadows were stretched so long that many of them were reflected on Meng Wenhao.
Meng Wenhao inadvertently lowered his eyes and happened to see this scene. He was stunned for a moment, as if he understood something, and then he shouted excitedly: "Haha, I finally figured it out!"
As he spoke, he wanted to run home, but he stood there for too long and fell to the ground, but he continued to scream excitedly.
The students who were leaving in front turned around and saw this crazy scene. They couldn't help but look at each other and thought to themselves: It seems that this student is really crazy!
