Cheng Caimeng sat on another stool, some distance away from Gu Ran.
After feeling that Cheng Caimeng's delicate body was farther away from him, Gu Ran couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
There is no doubt that Cheng Caimeng is a very charming woman.
Not to mention her impeccable beauty, just talking about her personality, she is generous to others, gentle but firm in doing things, and has the maturity of a royal sister with a hint of girlish playfulness.
Taken together, it is indeed very attractive.
But what about him
No matter how attractive it is, he can ignore it because he is closed-minded. Now all he wants is research and figuring out the biggest mystery of this world.
However, the future that Cheng Caimeng glimpsed did surprise him very much. Even because of Cheng Caimeng's charm, he did not doubt the authenticity of this "future".
But now that Gu Ran thinks about it, he feels that it might be too early for him to draw a conclusion.
All of this is just Cheng Caimeng's personal words, and she has not provided enough evidence to be believed.
Who knows whether it is true or not except herself
But Gu Ran was indeed very interested in this question. To be more precise, he was very interested in "seeing the future."
Therefore, Gu Ran asked calmly: "Are you mistaken? I don't like you, and I don't plan to find another lover."
Cheng Caimeng smiled somewhat sadly: "It can be seen that you don't like me now. In fact, how much can I like you now? I don't know myself."
After a pause, Cheng Caimeng continued, "But I can be sure that... in that future, we were indeed a couple... who loved each other very much, so much so that the moment I saw you, I couldn't tell which side was reality and which side was the 'future'."
Gu Ran didn't say anything else. He just listened quietly, while also observing Cheng Caimeng's expression.
"I've already told you about the special features of the technique I'm practicing. One of the most important abilities is 'foresight'. This kind of foresight is a very mysterious ability, not like seeing or hearing, but a kind of... experience. It's as if I've directly integrated into it and become a part of it."
"In order to find a chance to truly save the martial arts hall, I used this ability. Unlike the past, this time the price I paid was much higher, and the results were also much clearer. However, the person who used this ability the most this time was not someone else, but a man I had met several times before. Would you like to hear me tell a love story? You can regard this as fantasy, nonsense, and unrealistic. In fact, I also have my doubts..."
Cheng Caimeng smiled bitterly. "But my ability has almost never been wrong before. Although most of the time it is vague and only comes in handy in small places like traveling, but if there is a specific 'foreseen' result, it is basically correct."
"In fact, although the foresight results this time are clearer and longer than before, there is still very little actual content, and... there seems to be some distortion... I hope this is not the first time that an error has occurred."
Cheng Caimeng glanced at Gu Ran and found that he was listening attentively. She couldn't help but smile and felt a lot more relaxed.
"In the 'future', Niyuan Martial Arts Hall will not only not have the problem of talent shortage, but also have a very good development momentum, the best in Canglong City. I also saw the scene of us developing the martial arts hall together. You are no longer Gu Ran's special envoy, but my fiancé. Together, we will make Niyuan Martial Arts Hall the most glorious martial arts hall in Canglong City again, fight back against other martial arts halls that suppress us, and think and work hard together on how to teach students."
A happy smile suddenly appeared on Cheng Caimeng's face from the bottom of her heart.
"In our spare time, we read books together, but I read romance novels, and you read all kinds of books that I don't understand. We brew a cup of light tea, put some snacks on the table, and bask in the afternoon sun. Everything is leisurely and comfortable..."
Gu Ran didn't feel much, because this was just Cheng Caimeng's oral narration and he didn't really experience it.
Moreover, Gu Ran also heard some more difficult to understand points from her narration.
For example, he is now a researcher at Lanxin University and has his own favorite projects to research. He has never thought about leaving Lanxin University. Xue Yingsong is so good to him that she is almost marrying her daughter to him.
Then why did he abandon his life at Lanxin University and run to Niyuan Martial Arts Hall to help Cheng Caimeng develop the martial arts hall
Although Niyuan Martial Arts Hall will definitely develop with him around, the question still remains - why should he help Niyuan Martial Arts Hall develop
This is the crux and core of the problem.
Is it because of the "honey trap"
Gu Ran's eyes couldn't help but become a little gloomy when he looked at Cheng Caimeng.
But in a moment, Gu Ran shook his head again.
Because even if he doesn't believe in the other person, he will believe in himself.
Such a beauty trap is ineffective on him.
From her description, we can know that the two of them are lovers, and they are lovers who have a tacit understanding in life.
So the question is, is this true or false
If it is true, then how did he fall in love with her despite being wary and resistant? If it is false, then was she lying, or was the result she "foresaw" wrong
"Can you show me your martial arts book?" Gu Ran suddenly asked.
195. Cheng Caimeng: Yo, are you shy? 4k
Gu Ran showed great interest in the martial arts that Cheng Caimeng talked about.
Since she said that the source of everything was because she had chosen this martial arts technique and then "foreseen" that he and she would become lovers, then he would take a look at this technique to see what was so special about it.
"What? Is it inconvenient? If it's not convenient, then forget it." Gu Ran saw Cai Meng pondering and thought there might be a chance, so he said this.
This was actually his way of playing hard to get. He could infer that Cai Meng would agree to let him see it.
And the reason was very simple. Did she bring him into her boudoir just to drink tea and chat with him
... ...
Outside the light screen.
"Why does Gu Ran say that? Is he also interested in Niyuan Martial Arts Hall?" someone asked in surprise.
"Yes, with Gu Ran's experience, he should know what this question means, right? Could it be that Cheng Caimeng's prediction is true? Is Gu Ran really interested in her?" Another strong man was also a little surprised.
Among those present, the strong men who were not warriors from Canglong City could not help but become curious and asked, "Why do you say that? Can't we ask this way?"
The strong man from Canglong City replied: "Of course you can't ask that. For each martial arts hall, their own martial arts skills are the foundation of their existence. If an outsider says he wants to see the skills, it is tantamount to provocation. In serious cases, they may even have to go to the life and death arena and fight to the death."
Regarding this, the strong men of Suzaku City nodded in understanding. Since Canglong City and Suzaku City had the same origin, they were similar in many ways.
"Is it so serious? Then why would Gu Ran ask like this? Does he really not know the rules of the Canglong City Martial Arts Hall?" The other strong men from the main city said with some confusion.
The strong man from Canglong City explained: "Not all situations are so serious. Only outsiders are considered so. If outsiders express their desire to see your family's martial arts skills, then they are deliberately provoking you. But if they are very good friends, you can still bring it up.
"Of course, even if a close friend asks for it, it's basically impossible for me to agree, unless it's some extremely special situation, or if I go from being an outsider... ... to being an insider. In that case, I can still watch it. After all, the martial arts techniques of one's own martial arts hall have to be passed down by someone.
"So what Gu Ran said... If it wasn't a provocation, then it had some of that meaning..."
At the end of the conversation, the strong man from Canglong City also felt curious about what Gu Ran was going to do, and he couldn't help but keep his eyes on the light screen.
Although the strong man from Canglong City did not explain "that meaning" clearly, everyone was not a child and naturally understood it.
Is Gu Ran going to provoke Cheng Caimeng and Niyuan Martial Arts Hall
Of course not, so that means Gu Ran... ... is really interested in Cheng Caimeng
Everyone's curiosity was aroused, and they wanted to know what happened to Gu Ran and Cheng Caimeng next.
Eudora's face looked a little nervous, but she immediately sighed, knowing that there was no point in being nervous, and forced herself to let it go and not worry about it as much as before.
Although her long years in power made her somewhat cunning and magnanimous, once it came to Gu Ran, all her cunning and magnanimity disappeared.
... ...
"Why do you ask?" Cheng Caimeng looked at Gu Ran, her face slightly red, but not as shy as before.
Gu Ran said bluntly: "I am curious, martial arts that can 'foresee' the future are rare, aren't they?"
Cheng Caimeng suddenly smiled, like a beautiful flower.
"It is indeed rare. Well, you can see that it is not a precious thing. Do you know where it was when I found it?" Cheng Caimeng did not wait for Gu Ran to answer, and gave the answer herself, "It was at the corner of a table. The table had a broken leg, and this book was used to pad the corner."
Cheng Caimeng's answer left Gu Ran speechless. You, the senior from Niyuan Martial Arts Hall, are really generous.
Since Cheng Caimeng had no objection, Gu Ran naturally looked at the little yellow book of martial arts with ease.
This book of martial arts is relatively not thick. With Gu Ran's speed, it only took him less than a minute to read through it.
Then Gu Ran returned the skills to Cheng Caimeng.
Cheng Caimeng said in surprise: "You're giving it back to me so soon? Have you changed your mind and don't want to read it anymore?"
Gu Ran: “I’ve finished reading it.”
Cheng Caimeng: “… ”
"Really?" Cheng Caimeng took the book from Xiao Huang, half believing it, "Even now, there are still many parts of this technique that I haven't understood. You just flipped through it, right? And you learned it?"
Gu Ran shook his head: "Of course not. I just imprinted the contents of the book in my mind, so I don't need this 'original'. Next, I just need to recall the contents in my mind."
Gu Ran's words dealt a severe blow to Cheng Caimeng mentally.
Although she knew long ago that she was just a warrior with ordinary talent, she didn't expect that in the end, her IQ would be far inferior to others
Although martial arts training can enhance brain vitality to a certain extent and make people more "intelligent", there is a limit to it.
A "genius" like Gu Ran is something she will never be able to catch up with in her entire life.
After a moment of silence, Cheng Caimeng put away the little yellow book of exercises and asked, "So have you figured it out? What's the problem with this exercise? Or is there something wrong with my ability?"
How to verify a capability
The natural thing is to use it and then observe the effect.
But Gu Ran’s problem now is that he no longer has his Dantian, and thus no longer has the Martial Arts Golden Elixir. In addition, his supernatural crystal core has also been transplanted to his sister, so he no longer has any spiritual power left.
According to common sense, Gu Ran is no longer able to learn this technique, and even if he gets it, he can only simulate it in his mind.
But Gu Ran suddenly thought of a trick.
When Xue Yingsong handed the space prop to him, he didn't have any spiritual power to use it, but the final result was that he successfully used the space prop and was teleported to the vicinity of New Covenant City through the space portal.
So could he use the same trick again
