“Where have you been?”
Jiang Ning thought carefully and realized that if it was just the present world, he had not been to many places.
During the summer vacation when I was in the fifth grade of elementary school, I went to Wencheng, Dongjiang Province, the city where my parents worked, and had fun there.
He came back to continue his studies in the town, and it was not until this year that he came to Yuzhou to attend high school. Funny to say, although Jiang Ning is from Yuzhou, this is his first time to step into the urban area of Yuzhou.
Then he stayed in Yuzhou for three years and never went out to travel during this period. However, there were several times when Chen Qing'e went out to travel with her cousin and her family, and Jiang Ning wanted to go with them to see the world.
But he had no money to travel, and he was already staying in someone else's house, being despised by everyone. Why would he bother himself by going there and asking others to spend money
As early as the first year of high school, Jiang Ning thought about moving out of his uncle's house and living in the school dormitory of No. 4 Middle School.
Only when you have experienced it, you will know how complicated it is to stay at a relative's house.
But at that time, he was only a teenager of fifteen or sixteen years old and had no ability to be independent. His parents did not agree. They wanted Jiang Ning to have a better living environment. In addition, his uncle tried to keep him many times, so Jiang Ning was unable to move out.
Many things, when you look back on them many years later, are actually just simple little things. However, only when you are at that age will you understand their complexity and intricacies.
I was able to understand it later because I had grown up.
When he came back this time, he and his parents decided to move out of his uncle's house in just a few words, and he was not even dissuaded.
After graduating from high school in his previous life, Jiang Ning was admitted to a second-tier university in Huaicheng.
I studied in college for four years and had a living expense of 1,000 yuan per month, which was enough to eat but no money for traveling. I could only wander around the urban area of Huaicheng, visit parks, and climb mountains.
This is how my college life ended. After graduation, I went to Nanshi with 1,000 yuan, hoping to earn 5,000 yuan a month. In the end, my basic salary was only 2,000 yuan.
He returned to Yuzhou again, and with the help of the connections he made during his internship, he got a job and moved up the career ladder little by little.
Later, I changed jobs several times, but I always cycled between several cities.
Wencheng, Yuzhou, Anshi, Nanshi, and Qiaozhou are all the cities that Jiang Ning has ever visited.
Even compared to the current students in Class 8, they are far inferior to Bai Yuxia, Chen Qian and others who go out traveling every year.
He looked at Xue Yuantong and said self-deprecatingly:
“I went to Wencheng once when I was a child, and I have stayed in the town ever since.”
Jiang Ning recalled that when he was working, he heard his colleagues discussing which internet-famous city was fun. Because of his poverty, he was unable to fit in.
"Wencheng? I know! Is it close to the sea? Have you ever seen the sea?" Xue Yuantong leaned closer, her eyes sparkling. She had never seen the sea.
"Yes, I have." Jiang Ning said.
"Is the real sea blue and beautiful?" Xue Yuantong asked curiously.
"No, the sea is yellow." Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong's fantasy was shattered. He pouted and said unhappily:
"You're lying."
"I'm not lying to you, really." Jiang Ning went to the beach twice with his parents. There was nothing fun there and the environment was not as good as the Huishui River.
Xue Yuantong was still skeptical. She decided that when she grew up, she would go see the sea with her own eyes. If Jiang Ning dared to lie to her, she would teach him a lesson.
"Are there any fun places in Wencheng?" Xue Yuantong continued to ask. She had never left Yuzhou since she was a child and was very curious about the outside world.
"Yes, there is a mountain in Wencheng called Rentou Mountain. The top of the mountain looks very much like a human head." Jiang Ning gestured.
"Many people have nothing better to do than squat at the foot of the mountain all day, figuring out how to climb up. The mountain is almost 90 degrees, so it's very difficult to climb. Many people broke their legs."
"Then one day, a tourist actually climbed up, but couldn't come down."
Xue Yuantong asked: "They were so stupid, what happened next?"
"Later, a dragon appeared and ate the tourists. It turned out that the hilltop was the dragon's castle."
"Jiang Ning, you lied to me again!" Xue Yuantong glared, angrily.
"Well, then the tourist was hungry on the mountain for two days, and a helicopter flew up and rescued him."
"Wow."
"I haven't seen a helicopter yet. Jiang Ning, can you fly a helicopter?"
"Won't."
“Can you drive a tractor?”
"Won't."
Xue Yuantong said: "I will."
"Blow, keep blowing. Aunt Gu said you were so scared when you rode a tractor for the first time that you cried and said you wanted to jump off."
Xue Yuantong gritted his teeth: ... Damn it, why does my mother always betray me
…
The afternoon of the last day of the short holiday.
The room was filled with fragrance. Jiang Ning sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed.
He was practicing the 'Golden Mysterious Divine Consciousness Technique', with his invisible spiritual consciousness spreading throughout his body.
A stinging pain came from between his eyebrows, but to Jiang Ning, this pain was nothing worth mentioning.
The spiritual consciousness swayed gently like waves blown by the wind, and suddenly a strong wind blew, blowing the wave-like spiritual consciousness out rapidly.
Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters, fifty meters, until it reached a distance of one hundred meters before it finally stopped.
Then Jiang Ning's mind moved, like a whale sucking water, and all the outward spiritual consciousness was retracted.
Jiang Ning opened his eyes, a look of joy flashed on his face, his spiritual awareness became several times stronger than before, originally only able to cover an area of thirty meters in radius, but now it has reached a distance of one hundred meters.
His current cultivation level is at the second level of Qi training, but the strength of his spiritual awareness has already caught up with that of a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi training.
The main function of spiritual consciousness is similar to that of radar, which can detect the surrounding situation. With the current strength of his spiritual consciousness, it is enough to capture the trajectories of several bullets at the same time. Combined with his physique tempered by divine thunder, it is difficult for a pistol to hit him.
However, if you were on a modern battlefield, you would still be shot and killed by countless stray bullets.
"We still can't take large-scale action." Jiang Ning said calmly.
At least he needs to break through the foundation-building stage. By then, the range of his spiritual awareness will start from five miles, and he will be able to fly in the air. He will have countless spells to rely on, and when ordinary shells rush into his spiritual awareness range, he will have at least one second to react. Only then will he not have to be afraid.
Jiang Ning set a small goal for himself, to break through the foundation-building stage.
As long as he becomes a foundation-building cultivator, he will no longer need to hide his identity in this world. One person is an army.
…
Jiang Ning felt the joy after his spiritual consciousness broke through. Then, he collected his thoughts and took out a piece of blue jade the size of an egg.
This is jade material bought from Shao Shuangshuang's shop, used to make a protective jade pendant.
When he saw the jade pendant, he thought of Shao Shuangshuang. Could it be that this little girl didn’t use the Evergreen Liquid
Otherwise, why didn’t he come to see me after six or seven days
Jiang Ning felt strange. He planned to wait for Shao Shuangshuang to come and have a good chat with her about the pharmaceutical business.
If you want to quickly break through the foundation, you must rely on the spiritual energy formation.
"Let's wait a little longer." He thought, if the negotiation couldn't go smoothly, Jiang Ning wouldn't mind using some special means.
Jiang Ning fumbled with the jade, which was a little cold. He threw the jade into the air and a green sword energy popped out. The sharp sword energy instantly cut through the hard jade.
The jade piece as big as an egg is cut into four pieces.
Three pieces of jade fell into the silk cloth by themselves, leaving only one piece floating in the air.
His spiritual sense covered the area and felt out the patterns of the jade. Then Jiang Ning pinched out colorful spiritual lights and shot them at the jade piece.
Each ray of spiritual light corresponds to a mark engraved into the jade piece. The marks are connected to each other and support each other, like a precise mathematical equation.
At the same time, the shape of the jade piece changed, and the detached waste fell from the air.
Inside the jade piece, a spiritual formation was gradually constructed.
