Did the monster village get rid of poverty today?

The infrastructure team was still busy in the village, and they couldn't be left alone. Ao Lang returned to the village early the next morning to continue working.

Qingyan also wanted to go back, but Bai Ze refused, and continued to go shopping with Qingyan.

After a few days of frenzied shopping, Bai Ze found two carts to send them to the bridge, and there was already a carriage on the other side of the bridge to meet them.

Looking at the comfortable carriage, Qing Yan felt slanderous in his heart. Back then, he and Ao Lang walked back to the village pitifully.

At that time, the village chief said that he forgot to notify the villagers to pick them up. Now I think it should be just an excuse.Perhaps the village chief wanted him and Ao Lang to be alone in the scary grove, so that the senior hero could save "Mei" and eliminate the strangeness they hadn't seen for many years.

Who knows, he is not "beautiful", but has awakened violent attributes.

Qing Yan sat in a luxurious carriage that could only be used by princes and nobles in ancient times, and returned to the village with a bumpy journey.

The surveying and mapping team was working in full swing, and the villagers had not seen so many outsiders for a long time, and many children wandered around the surveying and mapping team.

Not all the surveying and mapping teams are half-demons, but they are engineering troops engaged in confidential military projects, so the village did not deliberately keep them secret.

The villagers said this little secret that no one else would believe. How could it compare to the XX confidential project done by the engineering army?We trust the people sent by the country.

The people in the surveying and mapping team were very troubled.The children changed back to their original form and ran around in front of them, which really interfered with work.

"Why didn't you drive the children away?" Qing Yan was puzzled.

Ao Lang frowned, and said disdainfully: "They said that the children disturbed the work, and I said to drive the children away, but they were not happy, so they immediately changed their words and said that it would not be a hindrance."

A bunch of duplicity people.Qing Yan laughed.

Colonel Hua, who led the surveying and mapping team, said with a smile: "It's just surveying and mapping. It's really not a problem. When the construction starts, outsiders will not be allowed to enter the construction site."

As soon as he finished speaking, a little Fat Chirp that looked like an owl but had two more horns than an owl flew to Colonel Hua's head.

"Jiu Jiu." Xiao Fat Jiu tilted his head.

Colonel Hua put on Xiao Feijiu, his wrinkled face was full of smiles, and his steps were fluttering when he walked out.

Seeing Qingyan's envious expression, Ao Lang said with a straight face, "Your favorite plush and fluffy alliance."

Qing Yan's expression froze, helpless: "Senior, can you stop being so jealous?"

Ao Lang had a cold face: "To tell the truth, is it jealous?"

Qing Yan: "..." I really don't want to pay attention to this senior who is getting naive.Senior, where is your male god burden?Just because I "dislike" your little dragon appearance, have you thrown away all the baggage of being a male god?

The work site of the surveying and mapping team is full of lively and lovely children with different shapes, such as the flying fluffy, the rolling fluffy and the lying fluffy.

Even if they weren't fluffy, the children of monsters were cuter than Bingxue, and their small faces were so delicate that they could be child stars.Moreover, these children all carry a little memory imprint of their previous lives, so they are all well-behaved and sensible, even if they are really bear (racial) children, they are not bears at all.

A group of married singles, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters with or without children in the surveying and mapping team, their faces are full of love and brilliance.That look, as if wishing to take the children back to their own home.

Qing Yan stays at the workplace full of soft and cute cuties, while Ao Lang keeps exuding jealousy.For the sake of his sense of smell, Qing Yan silently left the surveying and mapping team and went to work on the live broadcast.

Earning enough 200 million in three months, in addition to the dividends of the game project team, other activities must also be adjusted.

The fastest way to get money to liven up is naturally the live broadcast.

Qingyan originally wanted to live broadcast by himself, but his job is as a poverty alleviation cadre.It is not advisable to neglect poverty alleviation for the sake of making money for oneself. He would rather make money at a slower rate. He also wants to mobilize the villagers.

Qingyan took the information of the villagers and sifted through the list.

Almost all the spirits have a source of belief, they are the people who lack the least belief value, and the order of poverty alleviation can be lower;

Fox demons, giant panda demons, tiger demons and other animals have become spirits. There are many legends in the world, and they have been added to the card pools of the first few batches of "Liao Zhai Qi Tan" early, and they can be temporarily postponed for now.

The same is true for all kinds of tree demons and flower demons.They themselves have the love value of the human world and have the energy foundation of faith.

In the monster village, the higher the belief value of the villagers, the easier it is to maintain the human form, and the stronger the monster power and evil power will be.

For example, the weapons and weapon spirits used by famous generals in historical legends not only appear in human form almost all the time, but also can fight with big monsters like Ao Lang on the premise that Ao Lang doesn't use magic.

It is easier to work if you maintain your human form and have stronger demon power and **** power.The more efficient the work, the richer the life of the villagers.This is showing a positive correlation.

Qing Yan drew a few analytical curves, frowning in thought.

Therefore, the first object of poverty alleviation is to find the race with the least faith value, it is difficult to maintain a human form, and the demon power and **** power are insufficient, which makes life difficult.

But he cannot choose the poorest race.Because it is difficult for this race to attract faith, it means that its original shape and legends are not welcomed by humans.If it is forced to pull, the efficiency of poverty alleviation will definitely be very low, or even fail directly.

The weakest race can only wait for the first batch of people in the village to get rich, and then the group of rich people will lead them to drink broth.

Qingyan clicked on the analysis curve.

Shark tribe.

This is the race that he thinks is the most suitable to appear on the scene to attract popularity after comprehensive consideration.

From ancient times to the present, the mermaid has been a favorite theme of ghosts and ghosts among literati and poets.In the "Sou Shen Ji" written by Gan Bao, a historian of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it is recorded that "there are sharks outside the South China Sea, and the water lives like fish, and they don't waste their weaving achievements. Their eyes can produce pearls when they cry." Li Shangyin, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, also wrote in the poem The description of "the pearl of the moon in the sea has tears"; the description of "using mermaid ointment as a candle to save the immortal for a long time" in Sima Qian's "Historical Records" of the Western Han Dynasty is too cruel.

Such a race should not lack faith.But the problem is that Western legends have entered in disorder, and mermaids have become children's childhood stories. When people talk about mermaids, the first thing people think of is the Little Mermaid in Northern Europe.

As the children grew up, all kinds of western fantasy stories became popular, and the little mermaid became a dangerous siren.Even the mermaid meat that eats immortality in Japanese fairy tales is more famous than the merman in Huaguo.

Over time, the name of the merman was forgotten by young people, and became a popular "mermaid".This caused the sharks in the monster village to be seriously affected.

It is difficult for them to transform into a complete human form now, and they cannot leave the water for a long time, and their originally dexterous hands are becoming more and more clumsy-everyone of the mermaids can weave beautiful dragon silk.Longxiao does not get wet in the water, and it is one of the favorite clothing fabrics of the villagers.They lived well in the village on the food that Longxiao exchanged for.

But now, there are fewer and fewer mermaids who know the traditional craft of weaving dragon silk. This is because the original racial characteristic of "merman weaving silk" is gradually disappearing in the public impression.

If things go on like this for a long time, the public impression of the mermaids in Huaguo Monster Village will completely become "foreign races".The original source is wiped out, and fewer and fewer little mermaids will be born, and they may even disappear-although there are a fixed number of monsters born in the monster village every year, they may transform into monsters of other races.

In recent years, some oriental fantasy-themed film and television dramas have been popular. Although the audience sneered at the plot and special effects, the mermaids have re-entered everyone's attention, allowing this almost endangered race to breathe a little.

Then, with the rise of online literature, although most of the mermaids described in the novels are of Western species, there are always some orthodox oriental fantasy, who will seriously write about the race of mermaids, preserving the foundation of the mermaids in the village.

Now, it's time for the merman to reappear in front of everyone using the game as a carrier.

In the next version of the game, the sea map will be opened to incorporate a large number of sea monsters.The shark is the leader among them.

Although the rest have appeared in various legends, due to reasons such as unattractive prototypes and insufficient details in the legends, the sea monsters that have been unloved—such as shrimp soldiers and crab generals—will appear in the form of sharks.

Merren live broadcast can not only gain belief value, but also promote the next major version update of the game, killing two birds with one stone.

Qingyan put the analysis data into a small backpack, and went to Yuren to discuss the live broadcast.

It is difficult for the sharks to go ashore, and they are relatively withdrawn. In the past few villagers' mobilizations, the Shuiling production team was run by the head of Bai Ze himself, and he has not had any in-depth communication with the sharks.

However, he has a good relationship with the little mermaids in the school, and the mermaids should have a good impression of him.

Qingyan decided to go directly to the parents of the little shark, Bai Ruixue.Bai Ruixue's parents had come ashore to participate in the parent meeting, and the mermaids who could go ashore must have good strength, and their prestige among the mermaids should not be low.

Qing Yan came to Bai Ruixue's house with a few bags of shredded squid, dried cod and dried shrimp bought from outside.

The houses of the Shuiling Production Brigade are very unique. They use water as their road, and ordinary residents have to take boats to enter their courtyards.

Mangroves, corals, and seaweeds of various colors are planted in their courtyards. The houses are built of lime and shells. The lower half is on the bottom of the sea, and the upper half is above the water.

The place where the sharks live is full of jewels and treasures. It's hard to believe that the Shuiling production team is actually the poorest production team in the village.

The most indispensable thing in the Monster Village is this kind of shiny decoration.

Qingyan can now see the villagers' family conditions from the decoration of their houses.

For example, his master Liang Yinqiang's family is relatively well-off, and they live in a three-storey small bungalow built with reinforced concrete mixed with special spiritual and environmentally friendly materials. The house is fully equipped with running water, flush toilets, and sofas.

As for the Yuren, this beautiful house built entirely with local materials from the monster village has unique monster characteristics, and even the decorations are pearls, gems and corals, which shows that this house is definitely poor.

This is not xenophobia or anything.The villagers in the monster village have weak demon powers, and they can hardly use formations or the like.They are just like ordinary people, relying on external objects to maintain temperature.There are no treasures in the village that can make their lives more convenient.Therefore, the villagers are just like the ancient people, and it is difficult to maintain a comfortable life with primitive building materials.

They also want modern building materials for cold and heat insulation, colorless and transparent glass windows, and household items made of various modern lightweight materials...

Moreover, the style of the houses has been the same for generations in the Monster Village, and the villagers have long been tired of seeing it.Rare things are precious, who wouldn't want to live in a more western style?Use more space?

As for why this life has become less like traditional culture, out of the antique features, and has been polluted by the secular world...Whoever loves the paradise will go.Who wants to ride a horse when they can drive a car?Does your butt hurt?Those rich people outside who raise horses just run around occasionally, let them try to turn their daily transportation into horseback riding?

If Xanadu was so good, those humans who entered the monster village would not all want to escape.

Qing Yan walked into the chilly shell house, looking at the little shark shivering slightly while warming himself by the fire at home, his heart was very sour.

The villagers on the shore can still burn kangs and stoves, but the villagers in the water can only rely on their body and demon strength to resist the cold.

I heard that in winter, the villagers of the Shuiling Production Brigade can only hide in deep water to keep warm. Every time they leave the water, it is a severe torture for them.Therefore, the children of the Shuiling Brigade will have winter vacation in advance and be taught by their parents and elders at home.

"Teacher Qing, why are you here when you are free? Did Xiaoxue do something wrong?" Bai Ruixue's parents, like the parents of all ordinary people outside, were terrified when faced with the teacher's home visit.

Bai Ruixue's mother is going to start a fire to boil water and make tea for Qingyan.

"Don't bother." Qing Yan handed them the snacks in the bag, and said, "I'm here this time to discuss with you about filming a game promotion advertisement."

"The economic situation of the water spirit production team is the worst among the five production teams, so this opportunity is given to you first. The mermaids are the most well-known monsters in the water spirit team. I hope you can take the lead."

Qing Yan thought about it before coming, and perhaps the villagers would rather hear an "official tone" than clever persuasion.This "official tone" symbolizes a kind of prestige and power, which will make them feel more secure and confident.

This is also what Qingyan heard while chatting with his fellow workers while working continuously.People at the bottom know very little about information, and if they are asked to make their own decisions, they will hesitate, hesitate, lack self-confidence, and find it difficult to make decisions by themselves.

They need the official to tell them what the government is going to do, and you follow the government, and they will regard the official as the backbone, put their trust in it, and work with the official.

Although this kind of blind obedience can sometimes cause big problems, everything is difficult at the beginning, and the live broadcast is started first.

"Okay! Teacher Qing, tell us how we need to cooperate!" Bai Ruixue's father agreed without hesitation.

Qing Yan sighed in his heart, feeling the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

"Don't worry, I did research in advance. Young people on the Internet know about mermaids, and you will succeed." Qing Yan pretended to be old-fashioned, patted Bai Ruixue's father on the shoulder, and said in an official tone.

Bai Ruixue's father's eyes were shining brightly, as if he had been greatly encouraged: "I will never let down the leader's attention! The leader arranges for you!"

Well, Teacher Qing has become a leader, and this is done.Qing Yan continued to sigh in his heart.Sure enough, when dealing with villagers, an appropriate bureaucratic accent is very necessary.

"You call the person who can manage the affairs among the sharks, and I will wait for you here." Qing Yan suppressed his discomfort and continued to "pretend" to arrange work for the leader, "I will arrange things today, you guys prepare, in the next few days Just get the show ready."

"A new version of the game will be released soon, and the new version is related to your Shuiling production team. As the first monster group in the village to appear alone, the popularity you absorb will affect the subsequent operation of the game, which is very important for our village's poverty alleviation work."

Qingyan sent out tall hats one after another. Bai Ruixue's father was panicked for a while, and his face was flushed for a while. .

"Don't show your fish tail in front of the leader, it's impolite." Bai Ruixue's mother glared angrily.

Bai Ruixue's father hurriedly turned the fish's tail into legs wearing big pants, leaving a puddle of water stains on the ground.

Qing Yan thought, it would be so convenient for monsters to bring their own clothes when they transform into human form.

"What's so impolite?" Qing Yan put on a kind smile specially reserved for leaders, and said in a tone that was clearly aimed at the elders, but with the tone of treating the juniors, "Your original form is a part of you. We villagers are all monsters. It’s normal to have the appearance of a monster.”

After Qingyan finished speaking, he praised Bai Ruixue's father's fish scales for being beautiful and full of luster. This must be the credit of Bai Ruixue's mother. .

Qing Yan insisted on rejecting: "Our party has a tradition of not taking a needle from the masses."

"Leader, you gave us such an expensive gift, it's not a big deal." Bai Ruixue's mother hurriedly said.

Qing Yan smiled and said: "This is a snack for Xiaoxue. What kind of precious gift is a little snack? If you want to return the gift, after Xiaoxue learns how to weave dragon silk, weave a handkerchief for me."

"I will definitely be able to learn how to weave dragon gauze!" Bai Ruixue pulled Qing Yan's clothes and nodded vigorously, shaking the two little tugs on her head vigorously.

"Of course, Xiaoxue is very smart and powerful." Qing Yan rubbed the two little knots on Bai Ruixue's head with a smile, and her heart was melted.

Little Lolita is truly a treasure in the world.Oh, this sentence must not be heard by the seniors.

Qingyan stays at Bai Ruixue's house and talks with Bai Ruixue's mother about Xiaoxue's school, while Bai Ruixue's father goes out to find relatives and friends to come to the house for a meeting.

The meeting took a long time. In order to make the sharks stay more comfortable, Qing Yan came to the yard outside the house, sat on a coral chair standing in the water, and let the sharks use their original forms to soak in the water for the meeting.

Although the coral chair looks good, even if it is covered with a layer of leather, it is still cramped.Qingyan thought of the comfortable spring sofa in Bai Ze's house, and once again felt the gap between the rich and the poor in the village.

"Ahem, what I asked you to do is to shoot a game advertisement with the theme of mermaids." Qing Yan cleared his throat and said to the mermaids in the yard.

The sharks looked up at Qingyan, their expressions full of longing and anxiety for the future.

----------

Qingyan spent an afternoon explaining to the Mermaids what an advertisement is, what the plot of the advertisement is, and what kind of program effect is needed. Let the Mermaids go back and think about it, and give him a charter.

When returning home, Qing Yan felt that his throat was dry and he was very uncomfortable.

After dusk, the view was poor and the surveying and mapping were inaccurate. The infrastructure team finished work early and went back to the temporary place to discuss the infrastructure plan. Naturally, Ao Lang also went home early.

Seeing that Qingyan's throat was uncomfortable, Ao Lang immediately made flower and fruit tea with spirit flower and fruit, and moistened Qingyan's throat: "Where did you go?"

"Look for Yuren to discuss the new advertisement." Qing Yan took a sip of flower fruit tea, and lamented that if these flower fruit tea can be sold, there is no need to worry about helping the poor. .”

"Don't you want to make money by broadcasting yourself?" Ao Lang asked.He is ready to accompany Qingyan in women's clothing.

"Based on the game's current income, even if half of the funds are invested in infrastructure, I can get a lot of dividends." Qing Yan said, "The live broadcast must be broadcast live. If the live broadcast can drive the villagers to become rich, of course it will be better."

"After the video advertisement is released, if the response is good and the Mermaids gain confidence, I will propose to cooperate with the Mermaids in the live broadcast and share the revenue from the live broadcast. I am responsible for planning, shooting, post-production, and promotion. Half of the share is not too much, right? After the success of this model, there will definitely be villagers who will come to my door and cooperate with me in live broadcasting.”

Qing Yan snapped his fingers: "I will recruit some more people to form a post-production team. The villagers will be actors and I will be behind the scenes. Not only will the villagers get benefits, but I will also have a steady stream of income."

What is an actor?The boss behind the scenes of the team makes the most money.

After hearing this, Ao Lang joked, "Do you want to be the boss of an entertainment company?"

"It's okay." Qingyan thought for a while, and said, "Our village collective enterprise has two branches, the game company and the entertainment company. You are in charge of the game company, and I am in charge of the entertainment company."

"There are so many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment company, can you not control it?" Ao Lang asked seriously.

Qing Yan was helpless: "The employees of the entertainment company are all villagers. If you don't start a company, the villagers will not disappear. Seniors, please don't be jealous."

"I was just joking, not jealous." Ao Lang immediately denied.

The corner of Qingyan's mouth twitched, "I believe you are a ghost."You even eat fluffy vinegar.

Qingyan's throat was still uncomfortable, Ao Lang did not pull Qingyan to continue talking.

In the evening, Ao Lang wanted to show off and make dinner for Qingyan.

Qing Yan curiously followed Ao Lang into the kitchen to see what feast Ao Lang was going to make.

Ao Lang tore open a bag of tonkotsu ramen and started cooking the ramen.

Qing Yan: "Senior, is there only instant noodles for dinner?"

Ao Lang said seriously: "This is not instant noodles, this is ramen."

Qingyan was speechless: "Is there a difference?"

Ao Lang said: "There is a big difference! First, the noodles are wet noodles, which are real ramen noodles; second, the soup is real bone broth, with a mellow taste; finally, this is not jerky the size of a fingernail, it is real ramen. Sliced ​​meat with char siu! Add an egg to it, it’s no different from the ramen sold outside!”

Qingyan's lips moved, and he raised his forehead and said, "Senior, you... When we first came to the village, the shredded pork noodles you made should also be ready-to-eat?"

Ao Lang said: "No."

Qing Yan said with a smile: "That's right, there are so many shredded pork in instant ramen." He had forgotten that at that time he was watching Ao Lang fry shredded pork, it was definitely not instant ramen.

"The shredded meat is semi-finished green pepper shredded pork cut in the supermarket, and the noodles are ordinary dried noodles." Ao Lang said, "I'm good at making noodles."

Qingyan: "..."

"Well, I'm looking forward to it." Qing Yan thought to himself, let him cook in the future.

Looking at Ao Lang's confident attitude, it is obvious that this noodle is his proud craftsmanship.In other words, the apex of Ao Lang's culinary skills is the following noodles.The senior lived alone in the research institute for several years, could it be that he lived on noodles?Maybe takeaway?

Ao Lang carefully mixed the seasoning, fried two thick slices of char siu pork, boiled two soft-boiled eggs, and added seaweed and dried shrimp to the soup to make the soup more delicious.

Qingyan saw that the noodle soup was getting richer and richer, and his "contempt" for Ao Lang's cooking skills disappeared a little.

Although Ao Lang may only be able to make noodles, but he can make instant ramen noodles with the visual effect of Japanese ramen worth nearly [-] yuan outside. This skill is really good.

If the instant bone soup is replaced by real big bone soup, the frozen char siew is replaced by fresh pork, and the seasoning is matched by yourself, the seniors can open a shop with this skill.

"I'm really not good at seasoning. I have to use the prepared seasoning to make delicious noodles." Ao Lang said honestly, "However, now that I can use electrical appliances, I put an electronic scale in the kitchen to weigh the seasoning. Follow the recipe and you should be fine."

Qing Yan buried his head in eating noodles to hide his smile.

Use an electronic scale to weigh seasonings and cook according to recipes?The senior who is busy in the kitchen like doing an experiment is really cute.

Why do seniors need fluff?He is cute enough on weekdays.

"Isn't it delicious?" Ao Lang asked anxiously seeing Qingyan's distorted expression.

Although he is quite confident in his craft, maybe it might not suit Qingyan's taste?

"Delicious." Qing Yan said truthfully.Really delicious!Much better than the ramen staff meal he ate while working!

"Don't force yourself if it doesn't taste good." Ao Lang was still very anxious, "What kind of food do you like? I'll look for recipes and make them for you."

"It's really delicious, I didn't lie to you." Qing Yan praised, "The soup tastes very fresh. The addition of dried shrimp and seaweed dilutes the greasy taste of the bone broth. It's a perfect match. The soft-boiled egg liquid is just right, I can't make it To this kind of soft-boiled egg that is just right for the heat."

"Although I'm the best at manipulating water, I'm quite proficient in ordinary fire control techniques, but the power isn't too great." Ao Lang was relieved to see that Qingyan's reaction was not a disguise.

Qingyan is very good at cooking, and Qingyan cooks for him on weekdays.Occasionally, he also wants to make something for Qingyan to taste.

Apart from serving Qingyan a bowl of shredded pork noodles that night when he first arrived in the village, he has not cooked anything else for Qingyan.

Ao Lang put too much ingredients in the ramen, Qing Yan only ate a bowl of noodles, and he was so stretched that he lay on the chair and hummed.

"Shuiling Production Brigade is too cold. Is there any way to make the villagers of Shuiling Production Brigade feel less sad in winter?" Qing Yan rubbed his stomach and yawned.

"It's cold? Do you want to go to the hot spring?" Ao Lang's focus was wrong. "There is a hot spring in the backyard of the village committee. You haven't been there yet."

Although the hot water used at home is hot spring water, but Qing Yan is too busy during the day and afraid of the dark at night, so he hasn't been to the open-air hot spring yet.

Now Qingyan is much more courageous, the moon is half round tonight, which is still bright, maybe he is not so afraid of going out to soak in the hot spring at night?

Qing Yan sighed: "I'm talking about the Shui Ling production team."

"After installing the electric heater and air conditioner, their room will naturally be warmer." Ao Lang said, "It's the kind of device used by fish farmers. They use it to warm the water. They use it just right."

Qing Yan laughed: "Do you treat the villagers like fish? It seems to be the same. The people in the infrastructure team should have experience?"

"I don't have experience, but I have experience after discussing it." Ao Lang said, "They have done many difficult and difficult projects, and they are overkill to help our village improve the infrastructure. You don't have to worry about infrastructure."

"Okay, okay, I'm a layman, so I won't point fingers at experts." Qing Yan stretched his waist, "My throat still feels uncomfortable, should I catch a cold? Maybe I should really go to the hot spring."

"Did you bring your swimming trunks?" Ao Lang asked, "If you don't have them, use mine."

Qing Yan asked: "Do we also wear swimsuits to soak in our own hot springs? I thought it was like the island country, take a bath first, and then soak like a bath."

"Usually we are like the island country. We only take a bath after taking a bath. The hot spring water is very clean. You don't need to take a shower after soaking. You can go back to sleep directly." Ao Lang looked at Qing Yan and said, "It's just... are you sure you want to stay Get naked in front of me? Or, do you want to soak in a pool alone?"

Qing Yan was shocked: "Senior, are you sexually harassing me!"

"I'm just asking about the current situation." Ao Lang looked very serious, "If I want to sexually harass you, I won't remind you about it."

Qingyan: "..." His face gradually turned red.

Ao Lang sighed: "Okay, I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have reminded you. You are probably looking forward to it..."

"I'm not looking forward to it!" Qing Yan said violently, "I'm not going to soak up any more!"

Looking at Qingyan who was angry from embarrassment, Ao Lang couldn't help laughing: "We are going to get married next year, and now we have a little intimate contact..."

"Senior, shut up." Qing Yan threw the pillow on Ao Lang.

Now that they have established a relationship, they have hugged and kissed, said some colorful things, and did some colorful things. It's really nothing.

but!Wouldn't it be nice to have a warm and affectionate color?Why use such a teasing attitude!Don't you know he has a thin skin!

"Senior, you weren't so thick-skinned before." Qing Yan took a deep breath to drive away the embarrassment, "Aren't you shy when you say these words!"

"No. Why are you shy? When we lived in the same dormitory, we rubbed each other's backs. Where have we not seen it?" Ao Lang said firmly, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I'll give you Take a pair of long silk shorts that you haven't worn yet, and you can wear them as swimming trunks."

Qingyan muttered, can the past be the same as the present? !Could it be the same when he was still ignorant of his sexuality and now that he has established a relationship with Ao Lang!

The senior is really a bit mean-spirited.

But Ao Lang had prepared his shorts, and Qingyan felt that Ao Lang was looking forward to soaking in the hot spring with him.

In fact, he is also looking forward to it.

He and the senior were soaking in the same misty pool under the flickering lights and the bright moonlight. The atmosphere was ambiguous and romantic.

How can you not look forward to this kind of ritual feeling full of couples?

----------

The two found the shorts and robes to wear, prepared to take a shower in the bathroom, and then walked directly to the hot spring pool in the back mountain of the Five Spirits Hall.

Ao Lang used witchcraft to keep the two warm. They only needed to wear a thin robe, and they would not be cold in winter.

After Qingyan finished taking a shower, he dried his body, put on his robe, and only realized a problem when he conditionedly picked up the wrist guard.

Oops!He was so preoccupied with soaking in hot springs with Ao Lang that he forgot one important thing.

Qing Yan looked down at the red marks on the inside of his left wrist, which could be clearly seen in the dim light, and frowned in annoyance.

When bathing in hot springs, you must not wear wristbands, right?But he still doesn't want Ao Lang to know about it.

Originally, Qingyan thought that leaving these traces could remind himself to cherish life.There are no obstacles in life.But now he regrets not saving enough money for scar removal surgery.

Ao Lang's soul has not yet been fused, once his mood is unstable, it may affect the speed of his fusion.Qingyan is going to confess the black history after Ao Lang's spirit and soul merge.

Of course, the above high-sounding words are actually excuses, and Qing Yan is just timid.

During the winter vacation of his sophomore year, Qingyan and his family confessed their sexuality, and they were unwilling to go on a blind date and cheat marriage according to their parents' opinions. He was kicked out of the house by his parents who loved him all the time, and cut off contact with him.

Fear of life without a source of tuition and living expenses; the collapse of the three views that he has always believed that he is loved by his parents; the disgust of his different sexual orientation... Qingyan, who grew up in a small honeypot, could not bear these things at all hit.The failure to confess to the senior who thought he was in love with each other became the last straw that crushed his spirit.

When Qing Yan soaked his wrist in hot water, he really wanted to leave this suddenly strange world.The dormitory auntie appeared in time to save him, and helped him keep the suicide a secret, and only notified his head teacher; place to encourage him to complete his studies.

Looking back at the beginning, Qingyan was ashamed of his fragility, and even more disgusted with himself for using "failed confession" as one of the excuses for suicide-the reason for his suicide after his death will definitely become a topic of public discussion.Not to mention how malicious the public opinion will be towards the senior, given how much the senior loves him, this matter will definitely become a psychological shadow for the senior for the rest of his life.

Thinking of this, Qing Yan's self-loathing drowned him like a tide, as if he had returned to the time when he was dying.

So he was timid, he didn't dare to confess, he buried his head in the sand like an ostrich, carefully hiding this matter, and it would take a day to delay.

Qing Yan looked at the spare waterproof concealer he bought from the supermarket when he went out alone at night a few days ago—the previous concealer had been used up, so he carefully applied it on the red marks on his wrist.

The red marks are not visible, but even if it is a waterproof concealer, after soaking in water for a long time, it may also take off makeup, right?Is he looking for an excuse not to go to the hot spring?

Qing Yan thought for a while, and suddenly had a good idea.

The village head said that he might have a lot of business talks in the future, and that he needs to be more mature in his attire. People in the society must not have loose hair, and the hair must be waxed and shaped so that it is so smooth that even ants can slip on it.He specially bought a bottle of hairspray, which was popular at the moment and received rave reviews, from the supermarket.

Qing Yan applied the super waterproof and long-lasting hairspray on her wrist, and immediately there was a transparent layer of protection on her wrist, covering the skin covered with concealer.
