The return of natural disasters before the end of the world

"Second brother! It's broken! The wooden box suddenly broke!"

Lei Xiao suddenly sat up from the bed, staring at Yao Ziqing with his dark eyes, noticing his every move, not letting go of any changes in him.I didn't even realize that my hands were trembling slightly, but I was still comforting the obviously flustered person "Don't be afraid, take out what's in the box first"

Yao Ziqing had tears on his face, "I don't know what it is, it disappeared in a whiz, I don't know where it went, second brother, what should I do if I lost the treasure left by my ancestors?"

That was a glimmer of hope. If something happened in the future, it might save a life.Just disappearing from his space without a trace, not to mention how upset he was.

Lei Xiao saw that there was nothing unusual about him, so he raised his heart back a little, and patted his back lightly, "It's okay, anyway, in the space, the whole space is yours, take your time and you will find it, do you feel something is wrong? Or something uncomfortable?"

Yao Ziqing felt it silently, shook his head and said, "I don't feel anything, nothing changes, the space is still the same space"

"Valley space?"

Yao Ziqing nodded, Lei Xiao didn't say anything else, he looked at him for a long time and saw that there was nothing wrong with him, so he leaned back on the bed again, but he didn't take off the hand on him.

Seeing that Si'er was still frowning, probably using his mental strength to search in the space, Lei Xiao directly pulled him down and lay him down on the bed, "Go to sleep, you can only deal with unexpected situations with enough energy."

Yao Ziqing thought that he must have got all the treasures of his ancestors, so he must have been worried all night and couldn't sleep, but he fell asleep soon after lying down.

Lei Xiao frowned as he watched the sleeping man.

Since Si'er started to absorb elemental energy, basically even when he was sleeping, he was constantly absorbing it.Although he couldn't extract this kind of energy from the surroundings like Si'er, he obviously felt very comfortable when Si'er absorbed it.But now he can't feel it anymore, obviously Si'er slept very deeply, so deep that he even stopped absorbing energy.

That night Yao Ziqing slept very soundly. He woke up naturally in the arms of his second brother early in the morning, and stretched himself contentedly.

"Morning, brother, it's so comfortable. I feel that sleeping before is not called sleeping at all, but last night was called sleeping. It's like a person who hasn't slept in hundreds of years suddenly got a full sleep. The whole body says no." It's refreshing!"

Lei Xiao just looked at him silently, Yao Ziqing looked puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"You are dirty"

"!"

What does it feel like to be disgusted and dirty early in the morning!Yao Ziqing thought it was because he hadn't brushed his teeth yet, so he quickly moved away from his second brother.

Lei Xiao carried him back "to take a bath"

Yao Ziqing subconsciously looked down at himself, and as a result, his body was dusty, really dirty.The corner of the mouth twitched, "Second brother, what did you do to me last night? Or did I sleepwalk? I was clean before going to bed!"

Lei Xiao just replied calmly, "Go take a bath"

So Yao Ziqing quietly went to take a bath.

After Yao Zi finished taking a shower, Lei Xiao, who had been waiting for him, glanced up and down, and then breathed a sigh of relief.It's not as exaggerated as changing a living person overnight, there is almost no change, so it won't be too conspicuous.

The changes that Lei Xiao couldn't see with the naked eye didn't mean that Yao Ziqing couldn't feel the changes himself.After taking a bath, the whole person feels light and transparent, just like some fairy tales about washing the marrow.I quickly ran back to the room and looked in the mirror. Looking left and right, I didn't feel any difference. It didn't even become whiter or taller.

"Let my elder brother go to school and give you a suspension, so you stay at home and don't run around"

Yao Ziqing turned around when he heard the sound, didn't he agree to suspend school next semester, this semester is only two months away.But it doesn't matter if he doesn't stop studying. The reason why he didn't stop studying directly before is that he doesn't want his family to notice anything.Although he also wanted to give his family a sense of crisis, such peaceful days are becoming less and less, and he still hopes that his family can enjoy the final peace.

"If you need to go to suspend school by yourself, then I will go back to school with my elder brother to do the suspend study."

"You stay at home" Lei Xiao repeated, "you don't need to worry about the rest of the matter, you stay at home obediently and don't run around, the house has already started to finish, if you have nothing to do, you can start picking furniture and other things now, when the time comes all You can move right in after the project is finished.”

Yao Ziqing nodded, but Cheng Tao and the others should be worried if he suddenly suspended school and did not return to school.It's better to call them when the time comes, and remind them of the abnormal weather recently, so that they can have more snacks.

Unexpectedly, about Yao Ziqing's suspension from school, grandma accepted it calmly, without even responding at all, making Lei Lang think grandma didn't understand and repeated it again

"Grandma, my fourth son is on leave of school. A leave of absence means that he hasn't graduated from college yet, but he has to suspend his studies."

"Grandma knows, grandma is not old-fashioned," patted Yao Ziqing's hand and said, "If you suspend school, you should suspend school. Now that the outside is getting more and more chaotic, it's better to stay at home. It's okay. Even if you don't go to school, your three brothers can support you." You, let's talk about it, my little grandson is very capable, he will be as successful if he doesn't go to school!"

The old man blindly worships her grandsons. In her eyes, her four grandsons are the most powerful people in the world, and no one has any future for them!

Lei Lang glanced at the eldest brother and the second brother unexpectedly. Grandma's dedication to their studies is not ordinary, otherwise she would not have borrowed money to support them all to go to school when the family environment was so bad.But now there is still one year to graduate. In the eyes of the elderly, the graduation certificate is the most important thing. Now it is surprising that there is no response to suspending school.

But as long as you pass the level of grandma, the rest will be easy to deal with.Lei Xiao went to find someone to get a certificate, and let Lei Li take it directly to Si'er's school when the time comes.

Yao Ziqing was in a particularly good mood all day long, and he didn't know why, but he felt very comfortable.Seeing that they were all busy with their own affairs, Yao Ziqing simply ran into the woods and began to absorb elemental energy.

Now that the weather is hot, few people go out for activities. Basically, as long as the sun is too poisonous, cats will not go out at home.And he can also release mental power, as long as someone approaches, he can quickly find out.

Yao Ziqing chose a place in the shade of a tree, and there happened to be a big rock under it where he could sit cross-legged.Although he didn't understand why he had to use this sitting posture, he felt that absorbing elemental energy was like practicing qigong, and qigong practice required this kind of sitting posture to feel it.

After calming down, Yao Ziqing quickly discovered something unusual today.He absorbed even more energy, pouring towards him from all around almost without stagnation.And he is also like a thirsty sponge, taking in as much as he comes, very smooth and comfortable.This state lasted for a while, until he heard the sound of beeps, and he slowly woke up from it.

The sound of Didi is an alarm clock he specially set, just in case he lost his mind and forgot the time.This is the method taught to him by the second elder brother. Whether it is night or day, as long as he intends to enter meditation, he must set the alarm clock so that he will be woken up in time. Otherwise, if he gets carried away, some unexpected things will inevitably happen. .

Looking at the time, it was still early, Yao Ziqing thought of the heirloom that was 'missing' in the space, so he started to search the space.

This time was different from any previous time. He felt that he could 'enter' the space, as if his consciousness had been completely separated from his body, existing in the space in another complete form.You can feel the feeling of stepping on the ground, and you can smell the cool and refreshing breath in the space.

Yao Ziqing suppressed the astonishment and astonishment in his heart, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that he was so refreshed from the inside out that he ascended to heaven.If grandma can live here, she can definitely live a long life.

And in this fresh air, there is a hint of extremely alluring sweetness.It was different from any scent he had ever smelled, very special and alluring.Yao Ziqing approached slowly looking for the smell, and soon found that the only tree in the whole valley was inexplicably raised a little higher, exposing more of its thick trunk.

The middle of this tree is actually hollow, and it can even accommodate a dozen people entering at the same time.Yao Ziqing felt that there seemed to be no danger, so he approached the tree hole curiously.At first, I thought it would be pitch black if there was no light in the tree hole, but after entering, I found that the tree hole was full of fluorescent lights.It's not the miserable green fluorescence, but the dreamy white light spots, clinging to the tree holes, and there is actually a jade pillar floating in the middle of the tree holes.

A milky white cone-shaped jade pillar that is no longer than a palm and thick as a baby's arm, with the tip pointing down, just floating in mid-air in the tree hole.And the bottom of it looks like a stone, and it looks like jade rising up in a disorderly manner.Yao Ziqing saw with sharp eyes that the jade pillar slowly seemed to have shed a layer of something from the top, and it had reached the pointed mouth of the jade pillar.

Seeing that it was about to drip, Yao Ziqing had a flash of inspiration, and quickly took out some unsold jade wares, took out a carved Buddha statue on the front, and a flat piece on the back, and used the back to catch the dripping jade pillar. liquid.

The milky white liquid seemed to still be emitting fluorescence. When it touched the jade pendant, it was instantly absorbed by the jade pendant.Then the jade pendant faded visible to the naked eye, becoming more and more transparent and watery.

Yao Ziqing looked dumbfounded at the waxy jade pendant that could be bought for only [-] yuan, and within a few breaths, it became an ice jade pendant worth several million.Yao Ziqing took a closer look at the jade pendant, and then set his eyes on the jade pillar. He saw that the liquid had begun to fade out again, but it was still slowly falling down from the top. It would probably take a day or two before it dripped down. about.Clenching the jade pendant tightly in his hand, Yao Ziqing opened his eyes again, and the scene in front of him changed back to the lifeless forest under the sun.

The cold touch in his hands told him that he could really exist in the valley space as a complete entity.Even breathing the air in the valley makes one feel refreshed. Maybe the jade pillar that faded may be the essence of the valley.Originally, the valley was such an extraordinary existence, and the condensed essence would definitely not be ordinary.

It's just that the drop is absorbed. If you pick it up with your hands, will it be absorbed by your body instantly?Although it can be seen that it is a good thing, but whether it is harmful or beneficial to the human body, you have to try it slowly.

And since it is the liquid that faded from the jade pillar, is it possible that it is only useful for jade articles?If so, it would be a very thick golden finger in peaceful times.Just buy some impurity jade, dilute it with water and soak it together, and you can upgrade collectively if you don't wait.But jade can't be eaten as food, no matter how good it is, it's just for appreciation.

After Yao Ziqing went back, he told his second brother about his new discovery, and wondered if the jade pillar might be the thing in the wooden box.Lei Xiao looked at the jade pendant in his hand, it was very clear, the jade pendant with a water head and the carving technique were obviously ruined.But if it costs tens of thousands of dollars to eat something, it's almost the same.

“Try it with silverware next time”

"Silverware? Do you have it at home?"

Lei Xiao shook his head, "Tomorrow I will go back to the army, big brother will go with me, you can drive us to the town for a ride, and buy a small silver bowl or bottle, as well as porcelain, don't buy jade for now, since jade pendants can absorb The jade bottle is probably the same for that kind of liquid, use silverware first, if it is still absorbed, then use porcelain, don’t touch it with your hands.”

For the convenience of using a car, he went to take a driver's license test after returning to school after the year.I just got my driver's license before May [-]st.Although there will be no need for a driver's license in the future, but before that, a driver's license is still necessary.Otherwise, let alone the second brother, even the eldest brother won't let him touch the car.

Yao Ziqing nodded, he didn't understand what the liquid was, so of course he wouldn't touch it rashly.Watching the second brother start to pack his luggage after explaining, Yao Ziqing sat in the tent on the bed and watched him.After a moment of silence, he asked with some reluctance, "Second brother, how long will it take you to come back?"

"Retire this year"

Yao Ziqing scratched the place where the mosquito was bitten, and a big swelling appeared, which was very hard to the touch, and it would still hurt if pressed.Grandma said it was because the mosquitoes were too poisonous, so it swelled so much.Except for him, who has type O blood, all of them, including grandma, have type A blood.Grandma said that his blood type is sweet blood, especially mosquitoes.But as long as he was around since he was a child, the mosquitoes would never bite others. He alone was enough to feed all the mosquitoes in the house.

Seeing his movements, Lei Xiao took the toilet water on the cabinet, lifted the mosquito net and sat on the bedside, poured some on the palm of his hand and rubbed it on the place where he was bitten. , I can’t even use toilet water if I scratch it.”

A burst of coolness made the itchy place feel more comfortable. "Second brother, let's buy things online. I have never shopped online before. I saw that the third brother has bought a lot of things online. It seems so simple, and there are many of the same product. There are a lot of stores in different provinces and cities, we buy them separately so that it won’t look too much, what do you think?”

Now he doesn't go to class anymore, and stays at home all day, so he might as well be an online shopping boy, but the village doesn't even send express delivery, he only sends it to the town to pick it up.If it's online shopping, he might as well book a warehouse and hire a gatekeeper to pick up the packages for him, and he will collect them once a week.Thinking about it this way, Yao Ziqing felt that this method was better.

"Second brother, tell me, when do you want to tell big brother and the others about space?"

It never occurred to him not to tell them that in the difficult days to come, things would always be taken out of the space, so it was impossible for his family to hide it.Lei Xiao shook his head, "I will naturally say it when it's time to say it, don't think about it, it's not the time yet."

After thinking about Si'er's online shopping proposal, Lei Xiao said again, "Your elder brother's former high school classmate has an uncle who is deaf and dumb. You can ask your elder brother. If there is no problem, he is a good candidate."

Yao Ziqing no longer knew how to describe the second brother, even the family members of the eldest brother's classmates knew so well, what else did the second brother not know? !

Lei Xiao put away the toilet water, "Is it still itchy?"

Yao Ziqing shook his head, although it was still a little itchy, but if he didn't pay attention to it, he wouldn't feel it.

Lei Xiao nodded, "Go to sleep then."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a snap, and the whole room went dark.Seeing his second brother go to bed, Yao Ziqing hurriedly moved in.Seeing that the second brother went to bed, he lay down, Yao Ziqing sat silently in the dark for a while, and then couldn't bear it and moved over

"Second brother, you're leaving tomorrow, and we won't see each other for several months, so don't you have anything to say to me?"

There was silence in the room, and it took a long time to hear Lei Xiao spit out a few words, "Be good and be obedient"

Yao Ziqing was silent, sure enough, the second brother was not a person who could have a good chat.After kicking him twice, Yao Ziqing lay down with his back facing Lei Xiao.The kicked person opened his eyes and turned his head, looking at the back of his head inexplicably.

After an unknown period of time, the breathing rate of the four children beside me gradually stabilized.Lei Xiao stretched his arms under his neck.Hugging him all summer will wake him up from the heat. Although he is not afraid of heat, Si'er will always wake up a few times and then crawl away silently.He was lying like this, with Si'er pillowing his arm, so he wouldn't feel hot, and he could be in his own circle, which was good.
