Chapter 150: Goodbye, Mother, tonight I shall set sail

Monday night, approaching midnight.

Less than twenty-four hours left until the holiday ends.

Lin Li lay on the bed, just like last night, waiting for the arrival of midnight the next day.

The things he did during the day today were nothing more than two things, this and that:

Waking up early to continue practicing the Qi chapter in his room. The effort of these two days allowed him to basically master the fourth chapter of the Eight-Section Body Forging Technique, and his efficiency in utilizing spiritual energy had improved again to a certain extent.

Although he had practiced the physical chapter longer than the Qi chapter, the third chapter still hadn't been fully mastered.

However, the progress on both sides was considered quite fast. He felt that at this speed, as long as the supply of spirit stones could keep up, by the time he finished the one month of Task 1, he would be able to basically master all eight chapters of the Eight-Section Body Forging Technique.

Originally, after finishing his practice in the morning, he intended to go deliver food like yesterday morning, but Wu Min didn't wake up.

Considering that for his mother, it was a rare opportunity to sleep in, although she could take a nap, Lin Li didn't want to disturb her.

There was no need to contact Shen Kai either, so Lin Li spent his morning time studying, aside from taking a nap himself.

He went to deliver food in the afternoon and evening.

But because he was much more experienced, his efficiency wasn't worse than yesterday's. Now the progress of Task 4 had reached (26/30).

He would definitely be able to finish it before going to evening self-study tomorrow night; at worst, he would just ask for leave again.

It is worth mentioning that the balance in his account increased directly from 4.0 to 10.0, becoming a three-digit number—an epic improvement.

It improved to the point where Wu Min kept trying to persuade Lin Li not to be so self-destructive as to go deliver food.

Once twelve o'clock arrived, Lin Li immediately went to the 【Mall】 to exchange for items.

【Low-grade spirit stone】.

This damn probability; encountering bad luck, even if he tried his best, he couldn't overcome it. Lin Li sighed with regret.

He exchanged for another "Ability Amplifier (+1)".

"I used to feel like I had nowhere to use it; how come my system currency is suddenly down to only 570?" Lin Li whispered to himself.

【You have used the Ability Amplifier (+1) on "Power Accumulation"; "Power Accumulation" has been upgraded to "Power Accumulation (+1)"】

【Power Accumulation (+1): After paralyzing your right hand completely for two hours, you can accumulate one use opportunity. For one hour after use, the power, ability, and move effects output by the right hand will be doubled. Neither paralysis nor skill use can be interrupted. The storage limit for Power Accumulation is 3.】

The storage conditions for Power Accumulation became stricter, requiring two hours of paralysis, but the output effect could now become three times the original. Lin Li felt it was worth it.

The operations for waiting up late were finished.

He could sleep after browsing his phone for a while. Tomorrow, no, today was another busy day.

On his phone, several people had sent him messages. In the group chat, he could even see red packet notification messages.

After all, today was Tuesday, the day boarding students had to return, and it was also the Mid-Autumn Festival. Some classmates had the habit of sending mass blessings during holidays.

—Sending mass blessings for minor holidays basically means they are either quite young or quite old.

Lin Li responded politely one by one. It was worth thanking them for being willing to check his name when sending mass messages.

They have me in their hearts.

"Yao Qiaoqiao: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, Lin Li."

There was actually one that wasn't a mass message, but it wasn't sent exactly on the hour either. It felt like she was sending them one by one down her list.

It warmed him for the whole day.

"Lin Li: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to you too."

"Yao Qiaoqiao: 'Hehe'"

The essence of humanity is being a repeater. Also, your meme is good, but now it's mine.

"Lin Li: 'Hehe'"

"Yao Qiaoqiao: 'New hehe'"

Lin Li: Too lazy to reply, hehe.

"Wang Ze: August 15th, the bright moon is in the sky; friends and family, admiring the moon and flowers; reunion moment, fuck your mother; telling stories, full of blessings; a full moon, looking forward to the future; Mid-Autumn Festival, may everything go well!"

Just as Lin Li was about to send, "You fucking mass-messaged me too, huh?" he squinted and noticed something wrong.

It was hidden quite deep.

You dog.

"Lin Li: Wang Ze, are you sure you can eat mooncakes today instead of steamed buns? I feel like you didn't add any nuts."

After a few minutes, Wang Ze replied.

"Wang Ze:?"

"Wang Ze: Although it was a mass message, there's no need to curse at me, right? And so violently?"

"Lin Li: Still pretending here? Are you trying to make me react to your face-changing, little brother? 'Patting head'"

"Wang Ze: Ah, what on earth are you talking about?"

"Lin Li: I've already discovered the dirty words in your blessing. It's too obvious, idiot. Next time remember to be more subtle, like using an acrostic poem or something."

Wang Ze didn't reply immediately.

It seems he was in a fit of rage after being exposed.

Half a minute later.

"Wang Ze: Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!!"

"Wang Ze: Lin Li, I'm fucking finished! This was sent by Zhang Haoyang in our dorm group. I didn't notice the 'fuck your mother' part and just clicked one-click mass send!

You guys deserve to be cursed at, but the problem is I also mass-sent it to several family groups and relatives!

Fuck, two minutes have passed, I can't recall it! Ah!! What should I do now!!"

Then Wang Ze frantically popped up memes and started spamming the screen.

Lin Li: "?"

"Lin Li:? Are you kidding me?"

"Wang Ze: If I'm lying, may I be infertile but have a house full of descendants, and may my large intestine grow taste buds! I fucking hope it's fake too!"

Lin Li: "..."

This oath is too ruthless; he had to believe it now.

Lin Li put himself in Wang Ze's shoes and was already sweating profusely.

This is too terrifying.

Sending it to boys is fine, sending it to girls... barely fine too, but sending it to elders...

Lin Li called him, and Wang Ze answered instantly. Lin Li spoke immediately: "Wang Ze, I have a way to slightly alleviate your current problem."

"Tell me quickly, what should I do now?" Wang Ze's voice sounded anxious.

"Do you have a computer nearby?" Lin Li was much calmer.

"Yes, yes!"

"Turn it on now, plug in your phone via USB, then click the netdisk link I sent you on WeChat and download it."

"Wait for me, wait for me, damn, Lin Li, it's good to have you, otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do." The sound on Wang Ze's side immediately had a lot of rustling; he seemed to be getting out of bed, and there were sounds of a laptop being opened and keyboard typing. His tone was full of gratitude.

Then the gratitude stopped abruptly. Wang Ze's voice was stiff and mechanical, reading in a monotone: "... Why the fuck is this porn."

"This way you can have a good time before you die. I highly recommend this one. Remember to watch it on the computer, on a big screen, it's more enjoyable!" Lin Li said happily.

Wang Ze: "..."

Seeing Wang Ze not speaking, Lin Li added, "If you're not in the mood for this, I have another link with an awesome video of a row of sows queuing up to fall into a ditch. It's very funny. Do you want to watch it?"

"Get lost, Lin Ziqiao! You're a real beast! Your respiratory tract and vocal tract must have grown together! You're still talking shit at a time like this!" Wang Ze roared.

"Good spray, Han, I'll use it to curse Bufan next time." Lin Li laughed even while being cursed at.

"Oh my, this thing can't be recalled. Why don't you mass-send an apology again? But first, let me warn you, this will make those who didn't notice it notice it now, especially those who already said thank you to you. It will be even more awkward. It can only be called a dead end."

After Lin Li finished laughing, he gave some barely useful advice and then comforted him:

"And sometimes, let's change our perspective; things might not be so bad. Just like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, we see it as leaning, but Hawking sees it as straight. This is the charm of perspective.

So, change your perspective. Your idiotic behavior this time can be seen as a large-scale friend check.

People like me who keenly discovered your hidden dirty words are true friends who really care about you. You should worship us like ancestors, and it's best to transfer 200 yuan;

And those who didn't even notice the dirty words tomorrow are all fake friends who are just humoring you. It's no pity to delete them."

"What if a true friend becomes a fake friend after seeing this message?" Wang Ze asked again.

"Then it's deserved to be deleted." Lin Li analyzed calmly.

Wang Ze: "..."

You fucker.

There was no sound on Wang Ze's side. A few seconds later, sobbing sounds came through.

Zhou Baowei cried the day before yesterday, Bai Bufan cried yesterday, and Wang Ze cried today.

Lin Li should have felt guilty for doing such an excessive thing.

But the problem was, the sobbing sound sounded familiar to Lin Li. It sounded like a woman's, and it didn't sound like a local. Lin Li, whose memory was better than ever, remembered that it seemed to be from the movie he just sent.

You fucker.

"Why the fuck are you already watching the movie?" Now it was Lin Li's turn to be silent.

"You sent it, I downloaded it, the computer is on, I have to watch it. Hmm, your taste is indeed not bad." Wang Ze was neither sad nor happy.

This ethereal voice made even Lin Li feel a bit of pity.

Some people sound like they are still alive, but they have actually been dead for a while.

This is no longer watching a movie; this is looking for spiritual sustenance, just like watching the Spring Festival Gala during the New Year—it's to keep the room from being so quiet.

Watch it, watch it, if the child loves to watch, let him watch more.

"Knock knock knock!" A knock on the door suddenly sounded on the other end of the phone.

"Wang Ze, get out here! What kind of thing did you send to the family group!" Then came the deep, affectionate call of a middle-aged woman.

"Lin Li, thanks for the movie. I have something to do, I have to hang up first." Hearing this, Wang Ze took a deep breath and laughed.

Beep—beep—

Wang Ze hung up.

He shouldn't have cursed at Wang Ze just now. Wang Ze definitely had nuts, but the problem was that Wang Ze's nuts might be about to lose one nut.

Don't know if he will still be able to see him at evening self-study tomorrow night.

Lin Li shared the story, so everyone built their sadness on Wang Ze's pain, and they all laughed very happily.

When a whale falls, everything lives. Wang Ze only paid the price of his own life, but exchanged it for so many people's happy smiles. Presumably, he will be able to smile in the underworld.

Of course, not everyone was happy:

"Zhang Haoyang: Can anyone raise two resurrection armors for me on Water Drop Fundraising? If two is too many, just raise one for my mom. I just received a death threat, urgent."

Zhang Haoyang, you are quite filial.
