Interstellar Cultivation Academy

There are no customers in the convenience store at this time, only Xia Tongqiu is alone, and there is also a puppet tallying the goods.

After the popularization of puppets, puppets are used in many places, especially some repetitive or assisting tasks are basically done by large and small puppets. Gongfa can be driven by preset after leaving the factory.

However, this kind of puppets are not aggressive, and the aggressive high-level puppets still belong to the unique secret method.

With the development of puppet technology, for a period of time, almost all of the stores used puppets to replace human beings, but later customers reported that they were unwilling to face cold puppets when shopping, so in order to reflect humanity, the store resumed employing puppets. Human beings will be the shop assistants, and puppets will be responsible for physical work.

Xia Tongqiu was in this convenience store from evening to midnight.

"I'll come to see you, and I'll give you something along the way." He took out a branch-shaped piece of wood crystal and placed it in front of Xia Tongqiu.

Xia Tongqiu's face showed surprise, and it became clear immediately: "Win it from Shi Ming?"

Qin Yan nodded proudly.

Xia Tongqiu smiled again: "Isn't Shi Ming going to die of anger?"

Qin Yan waved his hands nonchalantly: "Hasn't he already gotten used to it?"

"Don't you take the opportunity to get more things you need?"

"I've long since looked down upon his rags, what else do you want? I asked him."

Xia Tongqiu couldn't stop laughing. He was almost dumbfounded when he saw Shi Ming's things a few days ago, but now he is yelling that he doesn't like it anymore. He put away Cui Mujing carefully: "Thank you very much." In fact, think about it more You know, Shi Ming belongs to fire, so there must be nothing of wood attribute, this pure wood crystal must be requested by Qin Yan.

"By the way, how did you know I was in the convenience store?" Xia Tongqiu asked.

"I've been to your house."

As soon as Qin Yan said that he had been to the house, Xia Tongqiu's face darkened, but he quickly covered it up. Obviously, he also knew his mother's temper and didn't want his classmates to go.

"Also, shouldn't you be resting today? Why do you still come to work?" Seeing that he was upset, Qin Yan quickly changed the subject.

"Today, my colleague has something to do, so I will change shifts with him."

"The exam is coming soon, isn't it too late?"

"It's basically fine at night. You don't see any customers. You can read books. It's cleaner than at home."

Seeing the hesitant expression on Xia Tongqiu's face, Qin Yan guessed a little bit, probably not as simple as changing shifts: "Is your mother not feeling well again?"

Seeing this, Xia Tongqiu no longer concealed it: "Yes, the original medicine is almost out of control, and I need to change to a new medicine."

"Is the new medicine expensive?" Qin Yan asked.

Xia Tongqiu smiled, and suddenly remembered something and said: "Come and sit inside, since you're here, you can just accompany me for a while. What did Teacher Wen teach you in making up lessons for you? Is Teacher Song also there, right? Is Teacher Song really Is it very powerful?"

Qin Yan knew that he didn't want to continue that topic, so he couldn't force it anymore.

Xia Tongqiu's study of medicine has a certain relationship with his mother. It is said that not long after Xia Tongqiu was born, his mother contracted a strange disease, so she aged very quickly. Do some lowest level work.But the disease has been resistant to medicines for a long time, and the medicine must be changed every few years, and the new medicine is more expensive every time.

"Teacher Song? I don't know if he is fierce or not. Anyway, his perseverance is super tenacious. Teacher Wen dislikes him so much, he can always smile..."

At midnight, after Xia Tongqiu handed over to his colleagues, the two went home together.

Talking and laughing all the way, Qin Yan sent Xia Tongqiu home.

Xia Tongqiu stood at the door of the house and bid farewell to Qin Yan: "Go back quickly, don't come to work with me anymore, it will be bad if it affects your exam."

"It's okay, I don't expect to be admitted to Beiming, anyway, I will just fill in any school in Kyoto when the time comes to fill in the volunteers, I can't let you go to Kyoto alone."

Qin Yan's words made Xia Tongqiu's face feel hot, but luckily he couldn't see clearly in the dark.

At this time, the door of the house suddenly opened, and Mother Xia stood at the door like a ghost, staring at Xia Tongqiu coldly: "What did you just say? Where are you going to go to university?"

"Mom? Why haven't you slept yet?" Xia Tongqiu showed a look of panic and motioned to Qin Yan, "Hurry up and go."

Qin Yan looked at the mother and son in surprise, and wanted to get away, but changed his mind when he saw Mother Xia's strange reaction.

Mother Xia's old face was distorted and deformed, full of gaps, and she screamed, "I'm asking you something! What school did you fill in for!"

Pain flashed in Xia Tongqiu's eyes, but he replied calmly, "It's from the capital."

"You!" Mother Xia's yellow-brown eyeballs were covered with bloodshot eyes, and she went crazy in an instant, and grabbed him with her withered hands, "Why are you so disobedient! Your wings are stiff, aren't you!"

Qin Yan strode forward, stood in front of Xia Tongqiu, and pushed Xia Mu's hand away.

After all, Xia's mother was at the late stage of Qi refining, and Qin Yan's arm was immediately broken with a few blood marks under this angry grab.

Xia Tongqiu panicked, "Mom, what are you doing!"

"Going to the capital? What do you know? How capable are you? You can't control yourself!" Mother Xia's sharp voice was extremely piercing in the quiet night.

Xia Tongqiu frowned: "Mom, let's go into the house first."

Qin Yan didn't know the situation: "Mother Xia, I have something to discuss, don't get excited."

The three of them mingled together, Mother Xia wanted to catch Xia Tongqiu, Xia Tongqiu wanted to push Qin Yan away, Qin Yan stood between the two of them and refused to leave.

Seeing that there was a big noise in the middle of the night and the neighbors were about to be disturbed, Qin Yan took out a worm from his pocket and threw it at Mother Xia.

Xia's mother suddenly went limp and passed out.

"What?" Xia Tongqiu asked in surprise.

Qin Yan said with a smile: "Sleepy, it's necessary to kill and steal. Don't worry, it's non-toxic and harmless. Tomorrow she will feel that she has slept."

Xia Tongqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "At this time, you are still in the mood to joke, help me help my mother in."

The two carried Xia's mother into the room, one on the left and one on the right, and settled her down on the bed. Xia Tongqiu was relieved to see that her mother was breathing steadily, as if she had really fallen asleep.

But he still looked dignified and preoccupied.

Qin Yan was worried: "What's going on? It seems that your mother is very concerned about your going to Beijing for the exam?"

Xia Tongqiu was silent for a long time before saying in a deep voice: "I want to take the entrance exam to the school in Kyoto, not just to be with you, but actually I have my own considerations."

Qin Yan guessed something more or less: "Is there any trouble?"

Xia Tongqiu's gentle face was unusually stern, even a bit chilly, his eyes were soft and inviolable, he shook his head resolutely: "It's okay."

It seems to involve people's privacy. Since Xia Tongqiu didn't want to say more, Qin Yan didn't want to ask too much, so he comforted him in a relaxed tone: "It's okay, don't look so sullen, we are together anyway, let's deal with anything if there is anything."

Xia Tongqiu's heart warmed up, she smiled, and the dull atmosphere gradually dissipated.

There was silence for a while, and the two had their own concerns.

There was a sudden light outside the window, and a shooting star slid across the ink-washed sky, dragging out a golden tail of fire, as if there was a giant pen, using the sky as paper, to draw a brilliant stroke.

"Meteor!" Qin Yan pointed out the window, "Make a wish! I pray that your mother will get well soon!"

"Making a wish?" Xia Tongqiu looked at Qin Yan strangely.

"Yes, wishing on a shooting star is very effective."

Xia Tongqiu walked to the window and stood side by side with Qin Yan.

But he didn't look out the window, his mind was on Qin Yan, his ink-like eyes reflected a gorgeous light, but in Xia Tongqiu's heart he was more dazzling than a shooting star.He is always so radiant, as if any difficulty in front of him is just a small slope, which can be crossed with a single step, and he is about to enter a university that he can't pass, but he doesn't care about it, and lives vigorously .

So, knowing that it was impossible, but inexplicably believing that he would definitely be able to pass the exam, right?

The meteor is fleeting and disappears into the darkness.

The people around were still lying on the window eagerly, with the corners of their mouths slightly raised.

"If there are shooting stars, it means that someone has crossed the catastrophe." Xia Tongqiu said suddenly.

"What?" Qin Yan turned to look at Xia Tongqiu.

"Cultivators who are preparing to cross the catastrophe will usually find an uninhabited planet and prepare for the catastrophe. The power of the sky will come down and punish those who practice against the sky. Often, a corner of the planet can be cut off with one blow, and it will fly away. In the universe, if it falls on our planet, it will become a meteor. Some meteorite belts, black holes, and cosmic debris in the universe are also caused by monks who survived the catastrophe nearby. The catastrophes are different, and some will Let the stars compress and collapse into black holes, and some explode and destroy the stars from the inside. If it attracts a catastrophe, the collapse of the entire star system is possible."

Qin Yan was dumbfounded and couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

"Then what was the Big Bang?" Qin Yan blurted out.

"The origin of the universe has not yet been determined. Most of the theories support that it was formed by the explosion of the body of the ancient god after sitting. Scholars also believe that the body of the ancient god has never stopped exploding and expanding."

"I know this, let's talk about the expansion of the universe..." Qin Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He looked up at the starry sky, thinking about the shooting star that pierced the sky, and somehow he thought of the black shop owner.

Xia Tongqiu looked at Qin Yan, smiled slightly, and suddenly said, "This is really good."

"Ah? What's so good?" Qin Yan was puzzled.

Xia Tongqiu showed an expression of nostalgia, and her voice was low and inaudible: "Actually, Qin Yan and I have never had a good chat."

There was a hum in Qin Yan's head.

This Qin Yan, not that Qin Yan!
