Chapter 154: CH 152

Chapter 152 – 1992-2020

This voice was full of vigor, like a bell, and jolted Lian Qiao’s eardrums. He thought that the monk’s chanting was not bad and that the sound waves could probably even kill ghosts.

Super hardcore physics!

At this moment, Lian Qiao suddenly thought that since according to the setting of this instance,  Buddhism was absolutely lethal to ghosts, how come the curse on Little Apple’s body could not be lifted? Was it because they were not sincere enough and their skills were not in place?

What if they replaced themselves with a real monk chanting sutras?

Thinking of this, Lian Qiao felt a little sad in his heart— forget it, Little Apple was already dead, so what’s the use of thinking about it? However this monk was still useful, he was this place’s only- 

Magic attack!

… Is this monk considered physics or magic? Lian Qiao felt a little confused.

No matter what, let’s brush up the favorability first.

Lian Qiao raised his head and smiled heartily at the monk: “Brother, are you looking for work too?”

The monk turned his head when he heard this. With sword eyebrows and star eyes, he looked radiant. As the saying goes, a flat head is the most effective barrier for testing whether a guy is handsome. In fact, a bald head has even higher requirements for appearance. It’s not only about the face, but also about the shape of the head.

The head of this monk is very good, round and glossy, like a peeled egg.

Lian Qiao felt inexplicably familiar when he saw the egghead. But looking closely at the monk’s face, he couldn’t remember where he had seen him before.

There seemed to be a ball of paste in his mind, in which was stuck the answer. This feeling was very uncomfortable, like he had stayed up all night memorizing books and then gone into the examination room the next day. Looking down at the test paper, he could clearly remember he has memorized it before but he just can’t remember it.

The monk also looked him up and down. Just when Lian Qiao thought that the monk was going to recognize him, the monk’s eyes lit up and he held his hands and said expectantly: “Benefactor! Do you have any money! The poor monk is about to starve to death!”

… Is this really the case? Did you really come for alms?!

Lian Qiao felt a little disgusted by being touched by a strange monk, so he pulled his hand away little by little, and said angrily: “To tell you the truth, I am also looking for a job… Wait a minute?” 

His eyes were filled with a familiar emotion.

When villagers saw a fellow from the same village, they would become teary-eyed!

Lian Qiao finally realized: “Are you a player too?!”

Monk: “Yeah!”

Lian Qiao was instantly stunned. There are still players living outside? How is this possible!

He was about to ask the monk how he survived the orphanage, when the owner of the snack shop came out of the kitchen and asked, “Who? Who wants to be a chef?” 

The monk immediately pushed Lian Qiao away. He raised his hand high and said: “Me, me, me! Boss, it’s me!”

Lian Qiao: “…” What happened to the love between fellow villagers!

He staggered a few times before standing still, thinking that if you are unkind, don’t blame me for being unrighteous. Then he jumped past the monk with cat-like agility, flashed in front of the boss and said pitifully: “Boss, I am also here to find a job. I came from out of town to find work. You saw me yesterday right? I have a seven year old child. I need this job more than he does!”

Lian Qiao had a baby face but, at this moment, in order to find work, the soul of a dramatist had possessed him. His eyes immediately went red. The boss saw that he was so pitiful at such a young age, and remembered the pink and jade-carved child he had seen yesterday, and instantly softened his heart, announcing on the spot that the job would belong to him.

The monk didn’t want to fight, so he turned around and left.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly slapped his forehead and said, “Hey, why did I forget, I’m still a monk!” Then he turned back and asked expectantly, “Boss, do you have any rituals you need to do at home?”

Boss: “…”

Lian Qiao: “…” Can you monks still solicit business like this?

This is simply not human speech. The boss got angry on the spot and angrily grabbed the monk’s collar to settle accounts with him. The monk was quick to admit his mistakes, bowing to the boss and chanting Buddha’s name in a grand manner. After finally getting forgiveness from the boss, the monk left the snack bar and left a sincere sentence before leaving:

“Call me anytime you need me!” 

The  boss was so angry that he picked up the rolling pin and chased him out.

Lian Qiao thought to himself that this monk really didn’t know how to do anything correctly and he easily won first place. But the monk’s affairs can be put aside for now, the most important thing right now is to make money.

RenDong entered the school and was not allowed to leave halfway through. School was not over until 4:30 in the afternoon. The snack bar was just across from XX Primary School. Except for the stationery store next to the school gate, there was no place closer to RenDong.

Lian Qiao thought about RenDong in his heart and spent the whole day worrying.

The owner of the snack bar was a good man, he gave money readily, and was concerned about his life. From chatting with the boss, he learned that XX Primary School was a public school that wasn’t too good or too poor, and has three classes: gifted class class, ordinary class, and district class. The best teachers are naturally concentrated in the gifted class, and children like RenDong, who are directly allocated to school according to the school district, can enter the ordinary class if the parents pay for it, otherwise they can only dawdle in the district class .

Therefore, there is a bad atmosphere in the school, that is, there is a chain of contempt between each class. The gifted class looked down on the ordinary class, thinking that they were all scumbags. The ordinary class looked down on the district class, and thought that the parents of the district class are all migrant workers with no money and position. The district class showed a polarization of contempt and longing for the gifted class. On the one hand, they felt that they were nerds who could only study and, on the other hand, they secretly envied them, thinking that they would definitely be able to enter key middle schools in the future.

That’s the way education was in those days. Although they talk about quality education, they are actually fighting for grades and teaching resources. As a result, not only parents and teachers compete with each other in the school, but even children who are not deeply involved in the world are also influenced by what they see and hear, and learn the bad habits of adults.

The daughter of the owner of the snack bar was also studying in XX Primary School. She is already in the sixth grade and is preparing for the junior high school entrance examination.

Seeing the end of school time approaching, Lian Qiao was not thinking about chatting, but subconsciously remembered what the boss said. If you play RPG a lot, you will develop this habit. You are good at catching clues from the NPC’s lines. Maybe you will get some hidden information to trigger some hidden tasks?

As soon as school ended, the snack bar ushered in a big wave of business. The boss’s daughter was old enough to go back to the shop to help out as soon as school was over. Only then did Lian Qiao have time to pick up RenDong.

During the rush hour after school, there are huge crowds of people at the gate of XX Primary School and there is a lot of traffic. Lian Qiao felt that he was submerged in the sea of ​​people, and, fearing that RenDong would not find him, he pushed forward desperately and squeezed into the school with all his might.

Seeing the turbulent crowd, the school security rushed up to maintain order and wanted to drive Lian Qiao out. Batch after batch of elementary school students came out of the teaching building. Lian Qiao’s eyes swept back and forth like a machine gun and he saw his precious RenDong at a glance.

Alas, who made their family’s RenDong stand out from the wind at a young age, stand out from the crowd. He had an independent aura with a fairy-like temperament that can’t be compared with those elementary school chickens around!

Lian Qiao pushed away the security guard who came up to stop him and greeted him like a husky, wagging his tail and said, “RenDong RenDong, you’re out of class!” 

Seeing Lian Qiao wearing two billowing armbands, RenDong couldn’t help being surprised, “Where did you go?”

Lian Qiao said with a smile: “I work in the snack bar opposite. I found a house, we don’t need to stay in a hotel!” He went to pick up his school bag.

Unexpectedly, Little RenDong stood back, tightly clutching the strap of the schoolbag with his  small hands and said with an unnatural expression: “It’s okay, I’ll hold it by myself.”

“…Oh.” Lian Qiao went to hold his hand, ” Then we…”

However, RenDong avoided him again and said with a slight flush on his face, “Don’t, don’t hold hands…”

Lian Qiao was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was embarrassed to be intimate with him at school, smiled and rubbed his hair: “OK. I’ll show you our new home.”

Lian Qiao put his arm around his shoulders. This time, RenDong didn’t dodge any more, but secretly bit his lip and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

As soon as he walked out of the school gate, RenDong suddenly said: “I want to go to the stationery store.”

Lian Qiao turned around and walked into the stationery store without saying a word. At this time, the stationery store was full of children, and the business was booming. This place is called a stationery store but, in fact, there are all kinds of toys and snacks, and the variety in the store is updated quickly, so it is full of great attractions for children and they insist on visiting after school every day.

Lian Qiao thought: RenDong must also have liked to come to this kind of small shop when he was a child but at that time he had no pocket money, so he could only watch but not buy. As soon as he thought of this, his heart felt soft and aching, so he touched Little RenDong’s head and said, “Just say what you want to buy, I have money.” 

RenDong rolled his eyeballs and searched for something on the shelves.

Quickly, he pointed to the shelf and said, “I want a pair of gloves.”

…Gloves?

Lian Qiao was very surprised.

RenDong was not afraid of the cold. In the outside world, no matter how cold it is, he doesn’t wear gloves. Why does he suddenly want to buy gloves now?

Could it be…  he was acting spoiled?

In Lian Qiao’s mind, the scene of Little RenDong wearing plush gloves and a woolen hat making a snowman in the snow was instantly transformed by his brain supply.

“Buy, buy, buy!” Lian Qiao took out the money neatly, and immediately bought the most expensive plush gloves and hat in the shop.

“No…” RenDong originally wanted to say that there is no need to buy such a good one but seeing Lian Qiao’s hidden expectation, RenDong’s face blushed inexplicably, and he couldn’t say the word of refusal.

The accommodation provided by the owner of the snack bar is on the second floor of the snack bar. Lian Qiao asked Little RenDong to go upstairs to rest first and then went downstairs to help the boss in the kitchen. After finally getting through the rush hour after school, Lian Qiao was already sweating profusely. The two of them simply ate something and then began to perform today’s ideological and moral tasks:

-Take a walk after dinner with mom and dad.

Lian Qiao was now very used to being an old father. It was already winter at this time, so one big and one small were walking along the road and saw the white mist from their mouths steaming in the night sky.

The street lights were all yellow and the two shadows, one big and one small, were stretched very long.

Because of the close proximity, the howling north wind became less cold.

They had already surveyed the entire street yesterday, so today they were really just walking without any intention of investigating. After entering the instance, they have been cautious and careful at every step and they have not felt this kind of relaxed and lazy mood for a long time.

Both felt extremely relaxed. Big hands holding small hands, there was a strange but nostalgic tenderness.

While walking, a strange singing sound suddenly came from a distance. The singing was high-pitched for a while and low-pitched for a while, but when you listen carefully, there are some cadences.

The two narrowed their eyes and looked into the distance. They saw a group of people around the street corner, and the singing came from this crowd.

When they got closer, they were suddenly blinded by the light.

They saw a shining human head under the shining street lamp. Of course, the head did not hang out of thin air and there was a bright yellow monk’s robe underneath.

The tall and mighty monk held a broken porcelain bowl in one hand, and quickly clicked on the phone with his thumb. He muttered from his mouth: “Wait, wait, I’ll find it soon… Hey, there it is!”

RenDong: “…” This is a familiar scene.

Lian Qiao: “…” His cell phone still has power!
