Chapter 425: Perhaps he really can tame high-voltage electricity

"Thank you." Having received such high praise from Zheng Hong, Lin Li even felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head.

Oh my, is this for real? I'm not that awesome, right? Hehe (Shin-chan side profile touching head).

However, what Zheng Hong probably didn't expect was that Lin Li really didn't take 220-volt AC electricity too seriously.

As the first technique Lin Li came into contact with, and also the category Daoist Shanqing was most proficient in, Lin Li had never slacked off in his practice of the Thunder Method.

Although Lin Li hadn't tried connecting his human body directly to the national power grid yet—not because he was afraid of an accident, but because he was worried about causing trouble like short circuits or tripped breakers.

And Lin Li hadn't done few experiments with various high currents entering his body; now, playing with the "Thunder-Containing Seed" was as easy and relaxed as playing with walnuts.

Even if the voltage in this power distribution room really hit Lin Li, it would at most be a slight tingling sensation, definitely not like Wu Jing.

And after hearing Lin Li say thank you, the expressions of Zheng Hong and Liu Feng completely stiffened.

Is this guy a fool?

"Lin Li... are you really the first-year grade one at Nansang Middle School?"

Zheng Hong's voice carried thick uncertainty, and even a bit of unease.

"Absolutely true," Lin Li patted his chest confidently and straightened his back: "I started school relatively late, and I had previously suspended school for a year due to an accident. I'm already eighteen years old now, while most other first-year students are sixteen or even only fifteen."

"If I'm not the genuine, undisputed first-year grade one, then what am I?"

Zheng Hong, Liu Feng: "(; o_o)?"

Wait a minute.

Teacher Xue and Principal Wang, you didn't say this kid was the grade one.

Suddenly understanding why Xue Jian wanted Lin Li to prioritize ensuring his and his apprentice's safety, Zheng Hong took a step back in fear and took out his phone, preparing to contact school personnel.

Only then did Lin Li smile, put the antihypertensive medicine back into his pocket, and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and harmlessness:

"Master Zheng, Brother Liu, just a joke. I am indeed the grade one in serious study. I was just livening up the atmosphere with you guys. Old Jian... Teacher Xue is also used to me being like this, so when he saw me having an episode just now, he ran away without looking back."

"You can rest assured, I am a human, I am a human."

Seeing Lin Li suddenly speaking human language seriously, Zheng Hong and Liu Feng looked at each other, both seeing suspicion in each other's eyes.

But to be honest, it's hard to believe someone is a human after they emphasize that they "are a human."

"... I believe you, but, Lin Li, when the real work starts, there is no room for any jokes." Zheng Hong nodded reluctantly, but his expression was serious.

"I understand," Lin Li nodded and promised seriously: "I will only participate in the parts I can participate in. As long as you don't make me just watch the whole time, I won't touch a bit of the things that really need professionals to do."

"Good, that's good." Only then did Zheng Hong feel that the hanging heart had been put down by half.

"Shall we go in and start now?" Lin Li asked, eager to try.

"It's not the agreed time for power outage yet, still a bit off. Starting now might add trouble to the teachers in the office," Zheng Hong looked at the time on his phone and shook his head.

Then he smacked his lips and walked towards the toilet: "I'm going to the toilet."

Watching him subconsciously take out a cigarette case while walking, combined with the smell of smoke just now, Lin Li and Liu Feng both knew it—his nicotine addiction was acting up.

After Zheng Hong left, only Lin Li and Liu Feng were left outside the power distribution room.

"Master's addiction is heavy, he can't hold it in," Liu Feng smiled helplessly and explained to Lin Li, then remembered something: "Lin Li, if you are already eighteen, you can just call me by my name. I'm actually only eighteen too; maybe you are even older than me."

"I just turned eighteen not long ago, my birthday is at the end of October—" Lin Li said this and looked at Liu Feng, his eyes full of inquiry.

"Then I'm still a few months older; I'm from March."

"Then I'll still call you brother, it's half a year."

"Up to you," Liu Feng didn't dwell on it, just finding a topic, his gaze drifted to the pocket where Lin Li just put the medicine, and he asked curiously, "Lin Li, do you really... have high blood pressure?"

Although high blood pressure mostly appears in middle-aged and elderly people, it is not uncommon for it to appear in young people.

"No." Lin Li was frank.

"Do your classmates have it, or does your family have it?"

"Neither."

"Eh? Then why do you carry this medicine with you?"

Hearing this, Liu Feng became even more curious. After Lin Li took out the medicine again and found that it was indeed brand new, his expression became a bit strange, and he made a guess:

"Could it be... that you bought this specifically... to give Master and me a surprise?"

Lin Li gave a thumbs up: "Brother, your judgment is really accurate!"

Liu Feng: "..."

It... really is!?

"You are willing to spend money on this? This bottle must cost quite a bit, right? Just to be a prop to tease people?" Liu Feng clicked his tongue, feeling both amused and annoyed.

Looking at Liu Feng's expression, Lin Li smiled. If Baowei were here, he would loudly tell Liu Feng: Hello, he is willing.

After all, the incident of buying stomach medicine as impotence medicine was still fresh in his memory.

By the way, the sildenafil citrate tablet he bought back then finally fell into Wang Ze's hands; I don't know how it ended up.

If he used it, Lin Li hoped Wang Ze used it on his roommate, not on Qian Ying.

No malice, Lin Li just simply felt that brothers can live well, but not better than him.

However, this time it wasn't like the time with Baowei, where he specifically went out to buy antihypertensive medicine, but just something he did along the way.

Liu Feng would definitely never guess what medicine Lin Li was selling in his gourd.

Because he had all kinds of medicine.

And it wasn't just medicine; it was like a mini department store.

The "Lihuo Sword-Nurturing Gourd" in Lin Li's hand, besides keeping the "Formless Sword" inside to nurture it, its main use was as a large storage space.

Now there was a very large and rich variety of supplies inside: food, daily necessities, and even some clothes, everything. Medicine was naturally among them; Lin Li had prepared some over-the-counter medicines for common diseases and sudden illnesses on the market for emergencies.

This antihypertensive medicine was stored in the gourd. Lin Li thought he could do some tricks today, so he took it out to show off and would put it back in the afternoon.

But this was definitely hard to explain to Liu Feng, so facing Liu Feng's inquiry, Lin Li just said lightly: "Not much, thirty-something yuan. I think it's very worth it to exchange for some happiness."

"Lin Li... your family, is quite rich, right?" Hearing this, Liu Feng looked at Lin Li, the intimacy gone, feeling that there was already a sad thick barrier between him and Lin Li.

"Ordinary family," Lin Li waved his hand, "I just have some small ways to earn pocket money, so I spend it quite casually."

"What ways?" Liu Feng's eyes lit up, he leaned in and lowered his voice, full of expectation, "Can you bring your brother along? I'm really short of money!"

Although apprentices had wages, they really weren't high. Just daily expenses could consume 80% to 90%, barely enough to make ends meet.

Seeing Liu Feng's sincere eyes, Lin Li hesitated for a moment, then leaned in, lowered his voice, and gave a bright path:

"Brother Liu, God gave people two kidneys and two lungs, but people only need one to live. Why do you think that is?"

Liu Feng: "?"

Seeing that Liu Feng seemed not to have grasped the essence, Lin Li had to continue to point out:

"Brother Liu, remember, the first round of ammunition from the armed police in the cash transport vehicle is blank;

Brother Liu, remember again, people's money that is left idle is all thrown in the bank. I think it's a waste just sitting there;

Brother Liu, you also have to remember, the butt is not just for pooping; smelly places can also be exchanged for fragrant money;

Brother Liu, finally, remember a big one, the shift change at Yuquan Mountain at eight o'clock in the evening...

Alright, brother, I can only point to this much. You have to realize the rest yourself."

After Lin Li finished speaking, he looked around nervously, as if worried about walls having ears.

Liu Feng: "..."

It seems like something is fanning.

Oh, it's his own twitching mouth.

Lin Li! What the hell are you being so serious and vigilant about!!!

Among these methods, except for the butt, the other ways to make money are simply not something humans can use, right?! You'd be chopped into meat sauce after finishing, right?!

"Forget it... forget it..." Liu Feng completely recognized reality and understood further what kind of existence Lin Li was, let out a long sigh, and waved his hand awkwardly.

Just in time to see Zheng Hong coming back from the toilet, he chose to change the subject, "Master is back, let's get to work."

Zheng Hong approached, rummaged through the handbag he brought, took out a pair of spare insulating gloves and an insulating rod, and handed them to Lin Li: "Take it, safety first."

"Thank you, Master Zheng," Lin Li took it and put it on, while asking curiously: "But Master Zheng, how long will this work take? Is one noon enough to finish it?"

"One noon is definitely not enough, the things haven't even been brought yet," Zheng Hong shook his head: ===== CHAPTER 426 =====
