"Self-draw." Zheng Yubai drew a two-card and pushed the card with a smile.
The other three sighed at the same time and said in unison: "I didn't get a bad hand!"
Ren Changxing behind them spoke up: "This friend is really amazing."
The three of them were stunned, looked at each other, pushed the cards down together, and then took a deep breath.
The cards held by the three of them were indeed rare and good, but a deadlock had formed between them. The cards that Lin Xia had to draw were in the hands of Bian Jing and Dong Ying, and the other two as well. Unless someone was willing to discard the good cards in their hands, there would be no chance of drawing any cards even if the three of them drew until the sky was dark.
Everyone looked at Zheng Yubai in surprise. Zheng Yubai scratched his head and said, "It's too narrow here to practice boxing. I can only use these few tricks to show off my skills."
Bianjian exclaimed: "I really want to trade my super hearing for this trick of yours. How majestic it is to be a bird god."
Dong Ying was older after all, and didn't have as many random thoughts as Bian Jie, so he asked Zheng Yubai a few questions about the reason. Zheng Yubai demonstrated the Lingxi Finger and Chaos Palm to them, which won them more admiration. After showing these incredible methods to ordinary people, they became more friendly to Zheng Yubai and gradually regarded him as their own.
"It turns out that this is done entirely with the strength of fingers and wrists. It's amazing." Dong Ying watched Zheng Yubai's performance and nodded continuously. "I have seen someone use superpowers to do this before. But now it seems that your ability is stronger than his."
"I've only just started." Zheng Yubai said modestly.
"No need to be modest." Dong Ying laughed, "I think this person might be interested in meeting you. If you want to know more about the aliens, you should look for him."
"Oh?" Zheng Yubai was very interested. "I wonder if he is willing to meet an ordinary person?"
"You are no longer an ordinary person. In some aspects, you are stronger than us. Because our superpowers have too many limitations, and are far inferior to your ability to control muscles and internal breath." Dong Ying said.
In fact, after the conversation between Dong Ying and the others, Zheng Yubai also found that the aliens were not as omnipotent as imagined. Although they seemed to have very powerful abilities, they had too many limitations. For example, Yang Feiyan's immobilization technique not only required strong mental support, but also consumed a lot of sugar in the body, which was why she loved to eat cakes and other sweets. Although the border's wind-hearing ears could listen to all sounds within a kilometer at will, if they wanted to eavesdrop on a certain target, not only would they consume a huge amount of mental power, but they would also leave a short-term sequelae of temporary deafness within the next two days.
If you want to use your superpowers, you have to pay a price. Judging from the current situation, Bianjian has a tendency to become mentally weak, because he often cannot control the voices he receives on the phone. At night, when others are sleeping quietly, he hears all kinds of noise and cannot rest, which gradually leads to autonomic nervous system disorder. Yang Feiyan needs to constantly replenish sugar, otherwise it will affect the body's functions, and in severe cases, he will collapse or even endanger his life.
After hearing what Dong Ying said, Zheng Yubai couldn't help but say, "This situation often happens to people who practice boxing. Many people misunderstand that practicing Xingyiquan will hurt the body or even shorten one's life. But that's only because the practitioners' methods are wrong, not because there is something wrong with Xingyiquan itself."
Dong Ying sighed and said, "In fact, the reason why we, the aliens, need to share what we have is to find a way to properly use our superpowers."
Ren Changxing, who had been silent the whole time, said, "You are not an alien, so you don't understand our feelings. Sometimes we would rather not have any abilities, be an ordinary person, and live a normal life."
Zheng Yubai probably understood his feelings. Being a special person is not necessarily a good thing.
"So we have organized an association among the superhumans, called the Superhuman Research Association. The research scope of this association is not limited to superpowers and the survival conditions of superhumans, but also covers all supernatural events." Dong Ying continued, "The person I just mentioned is the president of the Superhuman Research Association."
"Do supernatural events refer to things like UFOs?" Zheng Yubai asked curiously.
Dong Ying nodded: "Indeed, it includes research on UFOs. Because the source of our abilities has not yet been determined, some say it is the result of alien experiments, some believe it is the result of human evolution over a long period of time, some believe it is a genetic mutation caused by environmental changes, and some believe that human society has reached a singularity and that aliens are saviors who have taken on the mission of changing society. The mission of the research association is to identify among the many statements and figure out where the aliens come from and where they are going."
Zheng Yubai listened to Dong Ying's explanation and became more and more interested in the aliens. At first, he was just curious about the abilities of the aliens, but now he really wanted to go to the superhuman research association to take a look.
It was almost lunch time, so a few people ordered some food in the teahouse and ate lunch while chatting. Bianjian was just like Yang Feiyan, very talkative, and he would often tell everyone what funny things people said on the street outside, which was very lively. It was hard to tell that he was suffering from severe mental weakness.
"Eat more sweets." Zheng Yubai took a piece of egg tart for Yang Feiyan.
"Why are you so nice? Do you want to default on the cake you owe me?" Yang Feiyan looked at Zheng Yubai in confusion.
Zheng Yubai scratched his head: "Didn't Uncle Dong say that your ability would consume a lot of sugar?"
Yang Feiyan looked at Zheng Yubai strangely: "You, a fool, actually know how to care about others? Are you trying to seduce that sister at home and experiment on me first?"
Zheng Yubai's face turned red after hearing what Yang Feiyan said. Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Uncle Dong said, "Feiyan, you have to change your stubborn temper. Otherwise, you won't be able to find a boyfriend in the future."
"I don't want to find a boyfriend. I have a grandfather and a brother, which is enough for me." Yang Feiyan curled her lips.
Bianjian curled his lips and said, "When you go to college next year, you won't feel that way anymore."
Yang Feiyan glared at Bianjian fiercely: "Eavesdropper! Eat your meal."
After lunch, several people set out for the Superman Research Society, and Zheng Yubai of course followed them. They left the teahouse and took a bus to the suburbs. The high-rise buildings in the city soon disappeared, replaced by the scenery of the suburbs.
After driving for an unknown amount of time, the car stopped in front of a station in the suburbs. Zheng Yubai followed Dong Ying and the others out of the car and saw a golden wheat field nearby. It was then that he realized that it was already autumn.
People in the city see skyscrapers everywhere and live a monotonous life every day. They have almost forgotten the difference between the four seasons. Now seeing the golden color everywhere, Zheng Yubai couldn't help but breathe in the fresh air without car exhaust in the suburbs, feeling refreshed.
"It's over there." Yang Feiyan pointed to the only building in the town in the distance. (To be continued)
