Tiger Mountain.
Jiang Ning slowly came back to his senses, his eyes full of complex expressions.
He had been a wooden man in the world of immortal cultivation for two hundred years, experiencing neither joy nor sorrow.
Jiang Ning was completely unable to empathize with those memories. Whenever he thought about them, he felt like a bystander.
"The mistakes of the past cannot be undone, but there is still time to remedy the future."
Even if his cultivation progress stagnated in this life, Jiang Ning would never practice that technique again.
He is a man, not a piece of wood.
Then, Jiang Ning thought about the area that was deprived of its energy.
According to Uncle Xu, the deprivation of these energies and the laws of heaven and earth was done by the "Source Civilization" that is hostile to the world of immortal cultivation.
According to Jiang Ning's judgment, this space will probably take hundreds of years of erosion and develop into the same level of destruction as the Eastern Region of Immortal Cultivation before the creatures of that civilization can cross the space and trigger a war of civilizations.
Hundreds of years... a lot has changed.
Jiang Ning was not worried, not to mention whether he would still be around hundreds of years later.
Moreover, with the current speed of technological development, even after hundreds of years, that civilization may not be able to defeat modern technology.
He jumped down from the second-floor terrace and stepped on the ground.
Although the villa is spacious and bright, it does not feel like home. He prefers the row of warm little bungalows under the river dam.
"From now on, this place will be used as a place for cultivation."
Jiang Ning used the Qi Concealment Technique and rushed towards the small bungalow. Thanks to his breakthrough to the fourth level of Qi training, his speed increased a bit, more than fifty meters per second.
…
At night, the temperature dropped again.
Yuzhou has a special geographical location. The Huai River, which serves as the dividing line between the north and the south, flows through this small city.
People often joke that if you stand on the south side of the river, you are a southerner, and if you stand on the north side of the river, you are a northerner.
Therefore, Yuzhou has both the coldness of the north in winter and the heat of the south in summer.
Jiang Ning rode his bike to school, holding the handlebars through his furry gloves.
On his ears, he wore blue "earmuffs", which stood up.
Both items were given by Xue Yuantong. She claimed that although she did not ride a bike, she would feel a sense of participation in the event.
Jiang Ning rarely wore a cotton coat, as he had been wearing autumn clothes before, although he had spiritual power to maintain his temperature.
But people often asked him if he was cold, and it was troublesome to explain, so he just followed the crowd. "Jiang Ning, where have you been these past few days? I can't see you." Xue Yuantong sat in the back seat and questioned him angrily.
She originally wanted to go to the city with Jiang Ning. A new self-service hotpot restaurant had opened near the department store. The classmates all said it was delicious and only cost 19.9 yuan per person.
Unfortunately, Jiang Ning was away for two consecutive days and she had money but nowhere to spend it.
"There was something going on, but it's done now." Jiang Ning said.
On Saturday, he contacted Shao Shuangshuang and asked them to transport the materials for setting up the formation to Huqi Mountain and then set up the formation.
On Sunday, the Soul Gathering Array was activated to reach the fourth level of Qi training and to extract the 'Taiyi Cloud Marrow'.
"Jiang Ning, why haven't you bought medicine recently? I saw you bought a lot of medicine every few days before?" Xue Yuantong said.
"Are you better now?" Her face was full of excitement. Although she didn't know what disease Jiang Ning had, since he had recovered, it must be a very good thing.
Jiang Ning smiled when he mentioned this. He remembered one time when he moved a box of goods and prepared to make the Evergreen Liquid. However, Xue Yuantong insisted on tasting his medicine, saying that he wanted to test its poison for him.
Jiang Ning disagreed. Later, Xue Yuantong always found various reasons to try the medicine, so he specially prepared a bowl of particularly bitter medicine soup.
Xue Yuantong took a sip and ran away. Sighing at the bitter taste, she held the thermos and sat on a stool at the door of her house, rinsing her mouth with bowl after bowl of water.
Jiang Ning replied: "Yes, it's healed now."
He moved the production array of Changqing Liquid to the factory, including the herbs for refining Juling Pill, all of which were purchased by Shao Shuangshuang. In this way, whenever Jiang Ning was short of pills, he could go directly to the factory to refine them.
Here in the bungalow, as a quiet place to live, he quite likes to be neighbors with Xue Yuantong's family.
“It’s really healed!”
Xue Yuantong decided that after school tonight, he would buy some snacks to celebrate Jiang Ning's recovery.
…
In winter, the doors and windows of Class 8 classroom in Grade 1 are closed.
Jiang Ning pushed open the door and saw no students standing on the podium for the meeting.
After everyone knew that there was a thief in the school, although they couldn't catch the thief, they all learned their lesson and would not leave valuables in the classroom.
Dozens of students raised the temperature in the classroom.
Hu Jun, the student life committee member, stood in the open space behind the classroom and shouted to the class:
"Which group cleaned last week? You didn't empty the trash cans before the holiday. If it were summer, it would stink. Everyone, be more conscientious!"
No one in the class answered. Hu Jun felt that his authority as a class leader had been violated and he felt a little embarrassed.
He took out the duty roster from the drawer, glanced at it, and shouted:
"Yang Sheng, it's your group's turn to be on duty, be more conscientious and go take out the trash."
After hearing this, Yang Sheng shouted to Jiang Yanan, "Hey, be more conscious, it's your turn to take out the trash!"
Jiang Yanan was so angry that his already pale face turned even paler.
She lost the bet last time, and since then she has been on duty for Yang Sheng. It would be fine if it was just a simple duty, but every time Yang Sheng was asked to take on the job of emptying the trash can.
So Jiang Yanan, a girl, became the one who took out the trash. The trash cans in the class were standard large trash cans, which were very big and it was very difficult for her to clean them.
It’s so cold in winter, and after emptying the trash can, you have to wash your hands, which makes it even colder.
Jiang Yanan has very fair skin, which can cover up a hundred uglinesses. Just based on her skin, two boys in the class have a crush on her. If her eyes were not a little small, her appearance would not be worse than Shen Qing'e.
Seeing that no one was helping Jiang Yanan, Dong Qingyun stood up and said with a smile:
"Let me pour it for you. You can rest in class."
"Thank you." Jiang Yanan said gratefully. She thought she was going to suffer, but she didn't expect that there were still kind classmates in the class. Dong Qingyun was really a good person.
Yang Sheng looked at the two of them and said, "It's better to worry about it than to worry about it!"
After hearing this, Dong Qingyun said with righteousness:
"Yang Sheng, don't you have hands? Why do you always let other students take the duty?"
He used to have a crush on Yang Sheng and even supported her when she had a fight with Ma Shicheng. Later, Dong Qingyun found that Yang Sheng's personality was too wild and he couldn't control her at all, so he gave up and supported Shen Qing'e's group of girls instead.
Yang Sheng: "Yes, yes, I just don't have hands."
Dong Qingyun heard her say this and stopped pursuing the matter. He dragged the trash can towards the cold wind outside the classroom. He threw away garbage, but gained the favor of Shen Qing'e and her group.
Not long after Dong Qingyun left, the door of the classroom was pushed open and Chen Xu from Class 7 walked in with a smile on his face.
He was carrying a black bag and holding a light grey hand warmer.
"Good evening, classmates. It's cold now and studying is really hard. Here, I brought a hand warmer. It doesn't need to be filled with hot water. It's rechargeable and can be used to warm your hands after charging for a while."
"Look at this hand warmer, it's big and warm!" He held the hand warmer to show everyone.
"It's only 34 yuan each. Look at the quality. It's top-notch!"
Some students in the class were tempted. Chen Xu was famous in the grade for selling things during this period, and the quality was not a problem.
Shan Kaiquan still remembers the scene just now when his deskmate Bai Yuxia was writing for a while and her hand blew on her breath. He felt extremely heartbroken, the cold was in her hands and the pain was in his heart.
He felt his pocket and found that he had just brought over a hundred yuan for living expenses for evening self-study today, Sunday.
Then Shan Kaiquan walked up to the podium with great pride and bid thirty-five yuan.
“Give me a pink one!”
Chen Xu was so happy when he saw the first business opening that he even praised him for his vision:
"There just so happens to be a pink one, take it!"
Then give him a dollar.
Shan Kaiquan said casually: "No need to look for it."
All the students in the class were looking at him. Under everyone's gaze, Shan Kaiquan's blood surged at that moment, and he actually felt that he was the center of the class! His every move affected the classmates in the class!
He walked back to his seat with a handsome step and threw the hand warmer lightly towards Bai Yuxia's desk:
"I'll lend it to you for a while."
That’s right, Shan Kaiquan learned his lesson last time and did not use the word “give” but “borrow”.
This is more tactful and easier for girls to accept.
He looked at Bai Yuxia, waiting for her reaction.
Bai Yuxia looked at him like he was crazy: "Your hand warmer is not charged, how can you use it?"
