Chapter 8 Transfer Student
On the way home after evening self-study, Tan Xiao could see many people holding up their phones to take pictures.
He looked at the moon again, it was really bright. Tan Xiao took out his phone and saw that most of his friends' posts were photos of the moon, expressing his admiration for the supermoon, and some of them were pictures and texts by Mu Fei.
She also posted a photo of the moon she took, but the text was completely different from others.
"On the Gengshen day, the poor Heavenly Master will not guard the Gengshen day but the Emperor's Flowing Liquid! I want to absorb it too."
——Humans are born with a Taoist body. The Emperor's Liquid is a great tonic for all plants and animals in the world. To humans, it is no different from ordinary moonlight.
Tan Xiao just smiled, and then his cell phone vibrated, and the screen showed: Ms. Tan calling.
Tan Xiao was shocked. There was finally news about his Xiaoyao's biological mother!
Even though Tan Xiao has been very independent since childhood and was used to Tan Chunying often going out to participate in various cultural exchanges and field trips, he still felt that she had been out for too long this time, especially in the deep mountains and forests where there was no signal, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he received the call.
Although Tan Chunying hadn't come back yet, she had just called. When she picked up the phone, she shouted, "Good boy!"
Tan Xiao: "!! You finally showed up. Which forest did you go to? There's no signal. I almost called the police."
"Hey, I met a colleague, and we turned to the north together, hahahahaha!" Just by listening to Tan Chunying's voice, you can tell how excited she is, "I'm looking for shamans in the north. Aren't we the two major primitive shaman cultures in the south and the north, Wu Nuo and Shaman.
"I used to only watch my counterparts in the south, but this time I watched their ceremony, which really opened my eyes. Did you know that their fees are different? I'll talk to you about it when I get back, it's very interesting.
"Well, if I hadn't fallen and had a moderate concussion, I would have wanted to stay for a while longer to watch the ritual of guarding the family spirit. Now there's no way, I'm staying in the hospital here, but don't worry, it's nothing serious, I'll be able to go back next month."
Tan Xiao heard that everything was fine at first, but when he heard the latter part, she actually had a concussion. He was shocked again. Did she run around in the mountains? How could she get injured? "Be careful, are you really okay ? How about I go see you?"
"No, no, I've hired a nurse. You just need to study hard. I'll be back next month." Tan Chunying sounded very relaxed.
"Then you should report your safety regularly. By the way," Tan Xiao asked impatiently, "Mom, didn't you say that our family is full of folk performances? Why are my rituals so effective? Is there any secret in our family that no one should tell others about..."
During this period of time, this question has been lingering in his mind. If Tan Chunying doesn't call him again, he will have to fill in the entire eighteen episodes in his mind on his own.
Tan Chunying: "It's so funny, you have a chuunibyou."
Tan Xiao: "..."
Tan Chunying: "Don't go to Heshu if you have nothing to do. Your mother has a concussion, so don't tease me. Don't you know whether my family has any real skills?"
Tan Xiao: ...I used to think I had an idea, but later I felt like I had no idea anymore!
Tan Xiao changed the question: "Then do you know the 404 Office? The full name is the Global Coordination and Linkage Office."
"I seem to have some impression of them. People in the same industry have met them at a meeting. They are a very mysterious unit." Tan Chunying actually knew such a unit. She had the nerve to say that they were mysterious.
"They are an official organization. Don't you have any trust in them?" Mu Fei asked Tan Xiao a similar question before. He said at that time that the UFO hearing was more official than yours, but that was none of his business.
Tan Chunying laughed again: "How official is it? Is it as official as the Qigong craze in the last century? You don't even know how much traffic Qigong took away from us at that time."
Tan Xiao: "..."
Tan Chunying yelled, "Alright, I still have to call the Tourism Bureau. I wanted to go back and perform at the opening ceremony of our Nanchu Tourism Festival, but I missed it because of the fall. I'm so pissed. Hang up, be careful not to get scammed! That's so embarrassing. I started out as a swindler!"
Tan Xiao looked at the text on the screen that indicated the end of the call. What could he say? It was his mother indeed. Even her answer was exactly the same as his. Tan Xiao was speechless. He suspected that if he told her that he had seen Hydra, Tan Chunying would call the mental hospital.
Forget it, let’s just wait until she recovers and comes back.
…
The next day.
In addition to the high school and junior high school departments, Nanchu No. 1 Middle School also has an affiliated primary school, which are all located together. The area where the school is located is extremely lively. Tan Xiao went to an old-fashioned beef noodle shop near the school to have breakfast.
After eating, Tan Xiao walked back into the campus. When he was paying the bill, two men next to him looked at him, as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.
Tan Xiao paid the money without looking away and decided to go early as he had work to do today. As a representative of the physics class, he would help the teacher collect the test papers.
After he left, one of the two men behind him said to the other, "Isn't that guy just now... your class representative? I've seen him in the office."
"Yes, yes, you didn't seem to see me." Tan Xiao's physics teacher laughed awkwardly, wondering why they seemed to have made eye contact just now. Maybe it was because they were in a new class and everyone was not familiar with each other yet.
Tan Xiao had no idea that he knew the person he had just met. Even if he knew the person, he wouldn't be able to remember his name, which made it even more embarrassing.
He arrived at the door of his classroom, looked around after entering, and locked his eyes on a boy wandering around his seat, observing his hairstyle.
"Lin Yang?" Tan Xiao called out tentatively.
"Xiao is here." Lin Yang yawned sleepily. Although Tan Xiao didn't mention it, they had been deskmates since high school, so he probably knew that Tan Xiao didn't recognize people very well. It's just that it's hard for ordinary people to understand the world in the eyes of face blindness. He even thought for a long time that Tan Xiao just despised him for being ordinary-looking and was talking nonsense.
Tan Xiao felt relieved and said, "Your new hairstyle is quite successful."
If he can recognize it, then it’s a success and it’s very authentic.
Lin Yang was overjoyed! !
He was no longer sleepy all of a sudden. Let’s not talk about face blindness or anything like that. Anyway, the handsome guy complimented my new hairstyle = I look super handsome today.
"Yes!" Lin Yang couldn't help but touch his hair, then turned back nonchalantly, "Wow, squad leader, you are the first to be superstitious."
Two students in the front seat were playing tarot cards. One of them was their class monitor Yu Zhenzhen. Yu Zhenzhen and Lin Yang had been in the same class with Tan Xiao before the class reorganization in the second year of high school. The difference was that she was not as familiar with Lin Yang and Tan Xiao.
"Go away!" Yu Zhenzhen scolded, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, did you know that a transfer student will be here today?"
It's been a while since the start of the school year, and suddenly there's a transfer student? Not only Lin Yang, but other students all came over to ask, "Where did you transfer from?"
"Is there any gossip? Could it be that he can't stay in other schools?"
Yu Zhenzhen raised her chin. Her uncle was a school employee and was always well-informed. "That's not the case. He might be from the mountainous area. His family was transferred here for work. I heard that he lives a very simple life and doesn't even have a cell phone."
Everyone made a few "oh" sounds and discussed it curiously.
Yu Zhenzhen said mysteriously: "Also, my cards tell me that this transfer student——"
"Uh-huh?"
"It's a man!"
“…”
"You still need to calculate this? Your uncle will know it with just one word." Lin Yang was stunned. "That's it. You're not as good as our brother Xiao. Come on, show us your family's skills."
In fact, quite a lot of people know what Tan Xiao's family does, and his family information has long been spread.
However, not many people would tease him in person like Lin Yang, an old classmate, did, especially since this was a new class and many people had just become classmates with Tan Xiao. Given his previous reputation in the outside world, they were really afraid to talk to him, and they would be embarrassed if he didn't respond.
"You have to buy a ticket to see my skills." Tan Xiao said casually. He still had work to do. After putting down his things, he quickly collected the physics homework and took it to the physics teacher's office.
It was almost time for class. When the preparatory bell rang, the noisy classroom suddenly became much quieter. Tan Xiao was still working in the physics teacher's office. As soon as he entered, he went straight to the physics teacher's seat and said hello, teacher.
The physics teacher felt a little doubtful. Doesn't this look quite respectful?
In the Grade 2 (3) classroom, just over ten minutes after Yu Zhenzhen broke the news, the news of the simple and poor transfer student from the mountainous area had already spread, making everyone more expectant, or curious, than usual.
With another ring, the head teacher Ji Huiming entered the classroom. The strange boy following behind him was undoubtedly the transfer student in the rumors.
How could he have anything to do with the simple mountain students that Yu Zhenzhen mentioned?
Although the school uniforms were the same, their facial features stood out, especially the boy's pair of dark eyebrows and phoenix eyes. A single glance from him changed the atmosphere in the classroom, suppressing the atmosphere that was originally intended to create a cheer.
Who wouldn’t say “WTF” in their heart and regret that their Chinese is not good enough to describe this amazing appearance?
Moreover, he was noble and arrogant, and his eyes seemed to be even more arrogant than Tan Xiao who was not present (Tan Xiao:?).
Several "you are unreliable" looks flew towards Yu Zhenzhen, but she was dazzled and took off her glasses to rub them, so she didn't receive them.
Lin Yang was even more choked up, because he found that his new haircut was similar to that of his new classmate. Of course, this hairstyle is popular now. It was just that Lin Yang showed it off everywhere in the morning, so many people noticed that the two had similar hairstyles, but the effect...
Lin Yang is half a head shorter, so why did he become the control group for no reason!
The only thing that comforted him was that his desk mate had praised him before, which allowed him to retain a bit of self-esteem.
"Hey, this is Kong Xuan, who has just transferred to our class." Ji Huiming couldn't help but stand on the podium, so that he was almost as tall as Kong Xuan. He didn't know why he always felt a little bit pressured standing in front of this classmate... Could it be because the children nowadays are too well-nourished and are taller than him?
However, I did feel a little better after standing on the podium.
"Student Kong Xuan studied in another place before, and he is not very familiar with our Nanchu and No. 1 Middle School. Everyone, please help him more in his future study and life." Teacher Ji consciously wanted to show the majesty , and said in a deep voice, "Student Kong Xuan, you say a few words..."
Kong Xuan glanced at Teacher Ji, who looked ordinary but also looked down on him.
...I don't know why I feel weak again!
But as an outstanding young teacher who refused to accept his fate, Ji Huiming did not allow himself to fail to control any student. He smiled calmly and said in a deep voice: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."
Kong Xuan looked at him puzzledly, but just asked about the prohibitions of entering the mountain. Since this was his master, he didn't say anything.
The students in Class 2 (3) of Senior High School applauded the new students, but at the same time they were confused. Why did Teacher Ji speak as if he had just practiced bel canto?
Teacher Ji looked at the seating arrangement in the classroom and arranged it for Kong Xuan: "Wang Youan, move over. Kong Xuan, you sit there. Next to you is our class monitor Yu Zhenzhen. Zhenzhen, please take care of the new student."
Yu Zhenzhen adjusted her glasses: "Oh!"
Ji Huiming was very satisfied. With this adjustment, not only was the class monitor his deskmate, but the physical education committee member Lin Yang was sitting in the back seat, and his deskmate on the left was the physics class representative Tan Xiao. He was almost surrounded by class cadres and would definitely feel the warmth of the new class.
Kong Xuan walked a few steps to the table, put down his schoolbag casually, and glanced at the empty seat diagonally behind him.
Lin Yang, like everyone else, didn't dare to take the initiative to talk to Kong Xuan. After all, there was a Tan Xiao in their class, which had already made many people realize that they should not take the initiative to talk to classmates who looked arrogant, otherwise it might be embarrassing.
But Kong Xuan's appearance was really outstanding, so those who were sitting next to him all sat upright - because it was difficult to peek at him when they were sitting close, and they even had to sit even straighter, pretending to hold books and study in the morning.
This slightly weird atmosphere continued until Tan Xiao came back. It must be said that everyone was looking forward to what would happen when these two people met, as their seats were quite close.
…
Tan Xiao stepped into the classroom and noticed that the seating arrangement had changed, but he couldn't find out what was wrong at a glance. He walked towards his seat, searching for the difference, and finally locked onto the seat diagonally in front of him, staring at the man curiously.
Kong Xuan, who was placing a light gold pencil case on the table, also noticed it and raised his narrow eyes to look.
At a glance, I recognized that this was the person I had seen before through the faint smoke of incense. He walked in from outside the door, against the morning light, as if covered with glory, dust particles slowly floated in the halo, and there seemed to be the same witch sound in my ears.
He could see that the other person was also looking straight at him, and all external objects were blocked out by them.
The people of Chu said that there was light when the witch relied on her spirit, the so-called "bright and endless", just like the morning light at this time, the light golden light surrounded their first .
Tan Xiao walked to the seat and looked at Kong Xuan again, his eyes falling on his hair.
The oldest communicator received his spiritual response, and this glance had significance for tens of millions of years.
Kong Xuan responded calmly: "It's me."
After a while.
Tan Xiao: "You are...?"
