Chapter 20: I am again

Chapter 20 I am again

Xu Heng basically spent the next time in this kind of boring study.

The first day was okay. He only studied for half a day. At dinner time, Fu Yongqing let him rest.

Xu Heng made no progress that day.

So from the next day, except for eating and sleeping, he was required to spend all his time learning the solar terms in two equal parts.

At that moment, Xu Heng missed the days in school classroom very much.

He has never missed his alma mater so much, he misses it like crazy.

What solar terms are divided into two equal parts? Three equal parts? Six equal parts?

I would rather learn calculus!

Three full days later, Xu Heng finally mastered the technique of dividing into two equal parts.

This time it was all based on his own efforts and sweat, without relying on anything external.

He also thought about whether the Seven Stars Beidou would react again and help him get through this difficulty quickly.

However, the Seven-Star Beidou seemed to have insufficient replenished energy and did not respond at all.

So when Fu Yongqing frowned again and again, looking at him with slightly doubtful eyes.

Xu Heng had no choice but to grit his teeth, hold back his tears, and began to attack the three equal parts.

Probably in the eyes of the senior sister, it is a bit shocking that he, an evil genius who built up the sixth level of Qi overnight, took three days to learn to divide into two equal parts.

During this period, Zhou Yanan also came to their home.

Bringing the glutinous rice that was previously exchanged with the scavenger members.

At the same time, I also brought back good news. The surveillance video submitted by Xu Heng was inspected by the relevant departments and determined to have not been tampered with in any way.

So he is now completely cleared of suspicion and has nothing to do with the Lincheng murder case.

But this does not change the current situation that Xu Heng still needs to stay at home to study.

Eight days later…

He barely learned the technique of controlling the solar terms in three equal parts.

During this period, someone came to visit me again and delivered a bottle of medicine in a refrigeration box.

After Xu Heng took it, the two meridians that had been broken slowly recovered.

Looking the same as before, even after being treated by the Beginning of Spring Festival Master.

Xu Heng did not continue to try to make breakthroughs in martial arts, but continued to use reckless control skills.

Twenty days later…

The quartering was completed with great difficulty.

Then he got completely stuck.

For several days in a row, Xu Heng repeatedly failed when dividing into five equal parts and made no progress.

Fu Yongqing didn’t have time to wait for him either.

The night before the Spring Festival was about to come, Fu Yongqing received a call and she needed to leave.

"Senior sister, are you really leaving again? I...I feel a little reluctant to leave you."

Xu Heng suddenly lost the courage to face this parting.

He sat lonely on the sofa, with his back to Fu Yongqing, and his voice even trembled slightly.

In the past few years, they have been together often and apart. Before that, they had not seen their senior sister for two and a half years. This time she had only been back for a month, but she was leaving again.

Xu Heng could only cover his mouth with his hands, suppressing his emotions, for fear that he would laugh out loud.

“Xu Heng, after tomorrow’s Beginning of Spring, you will be seventeen years old.”

At this time, Fu Yongqing, who was standing at the door, suddenly said.

Her voice was soft, with a hint of relief and emotion in her tone.

Xu Heng couldn't help but be startled.

Yes, spring will begin tomorrow, and the new year has arrived.

I will be almost seventeen years old soon.

Lao Xu and the others have not been back for almost seven years.

“Xu Heng, senior sister has been coming back less and less in recent years. Don’t blame senior sister, because there are some things that senior sister has to do.

You may have been somewhat neglected in the past two years, but senior sister knows very well that you mature earlier, are sensible earlier, and are more sensitive than other peers.

Since you were a child, you have always loved to be duplicitous and show off your strength..."

“Senior sister, when will you come back?” Xu Heng suddenly turned around and looked at Fu Yongqing.

He did not dare to let his senior sister continue talking.

Why did you say these words this time?

Why does it sound a little disturbing?

Facing Xu Heng’s increasingly horrified eyes, Fu Yongqing was stunned for a moment. "Don't think too much, senior sister...it just feels like I haven't seen you for too long. You have grown up all of a sudden and you are not used to it." She shook her head slightly.

“On the day of the college entrance examination in June, can you come back to see me take the seasonal examination?”

Xu Heng sat on the sofa and looked into her eyes and said.

Fu Yongqing stood where she was. After a few breaths, she slowly walked up to Xu Heng and gently held his head in her arms.

“Okay, I’ll come back to see you on the day of the college entrance examination.”

A soft voice sounded in Xu Heng’s ears.

Xu Heng felt that his head was completely sunken into a towering softness, and a faint milky fragrance filled his mouth and nose. After listening to the senior sister's promise, his heart finally calmed down.

“Senior sister, I will give you a gift when the time comes, such as Darong City’s Festival Number One Scholar.”

“It’s not important to be the number one scholar. Senior sister only hopes that you can patiently learn the skills of controlling solar terms first, and don’t rush for success just to catch up with this year’s college entrance examination.”

“Sister, I have confidence.”

"Whether it's success or failure; gain or loss; right or wrong, merit or demerit, honor or disgrace."

After Fu Yongqing finished speaking, he smiled slightly and gently rubbed Xu Heng's hair.

After a while, the room became quiet.

Fu Yongqing has left.

On the dining table, there is a large stack of yellow paper, incense, a few candles, and a small metal box.

Senior sister did not take away his things and left him a gift.

Xu Heng looked at the empty old house, unable to bring back the joy he had felt before.

He guessed that the senior sister might be going to perform some dangerous mission, but the senior sister was unwilling to say, and he couldn't find out anything no matter how he asked.

But even if the senior sister said it, what could I do?

What is the use of just building six floors of gas?

“Isn’t it just the solar term divided into five equal parts? Isn’t it the solar term divided into six equal parts? I don’t believe that I can’t do it with my hard work and perseverance.”

Xu Heng immediately stood up and walked to the dining table, grabbing the candles.

“Light the candle!”

With a wave of his hand, he lit the candle with a lighter.

“Come on!”

Whoosh!

The next moment, consciousness looks inside the mind again.

The Seven Stars of the Big Dipper gradually became brighter again in the weak candlelight.

He heard the trembling of Beidou again, very light and vaguely joyful.

Xu Heng’s consciousness also penetrated directly through his body and surged into the sea of consciousness.

A ray of solar energy was suddenly controlled by his will and became motionless.

With just a thought, the solar terms quickly turned into five equal parts, six equal parts, seven equal parts... ten equal parts.

Subsequently, the ten divided weak solar terms continued to change into various forms in the sea of consciousness.

Diffuse, condense, turn into fine needles, and then connect into circles of arcs...

“Hahaha, I’m done, I’m done again!”

When Xu Heng opened his eyes again, the sky outside was already bright, but it couldn't shine brighter than his loud laughter.

“Dingle bell…”

At this moment, the cell phone rang again.

“Come again?”

Xu Heng saw that the call was from Zhou Yanan, and quickly turned to look out the window.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of human voices coming from outside.

I thought there was another solar term pollution...

"Hey, Captain Zhou, what happened so early in the morning? Are you going to let me run away again?" Xu Heng answered the phone and said leisurely.

“Xu Heng, are you in your old house? Listen to me, don’t go out, don’t go out, do you hear me? I’ll be right over...”

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Yanan just finished speaking and immediately hung up.

Xu Heng’s face was full of confusion: “???”
