Chapter 97: Surprise
After leaving the airport, Chen Jue did not immediately go to Baoshan City where A Biao was, but spent a night in Kun City first.
It takes 6 or 7 hours to get to Baoshan by chartering a car, so Chen Jue booked a high-speed train ticket for the next morning, which would take only three and a half hours and was faster and more convenient.
I remember that this Brother Biao got married suddenly a few months before graduation from university, which shocked Chen Jue and other roommates who had just entered the society and were still doing internships!
In order to attend A Biao's sudden wedding, Chen Jue and a group of roommates took a green train from Vancouver for two days and two nights. At that time, there was no high-speed train in the Baoshan area.
By the way, Chen Jue went to university in Vancouver, and the school and major were not particularly good. The only thing that made his life more colorful was that he made some like-minded roommates at school.
Jiang Fan, who worked hard in Hangzhou, was the second oldest in the dormitory. He was from Tianzhu, Longnan Province, and was of mixed Han and Tibetan descent. His father was Han and his mother was Tibetan. His ID card showed that he was Han, but he usually associated with Tibetans, turning prayer wheels, hanging Hada, lighting butter lamps, and occasionally pinching some butter tsampa to share with everyone. He was generous and righteous. In the end, he bought a house with a loan and married a local girl in Hangzhou, and settled down in Hangzhou to live and work hard.
As for the brother Biao that Chen Jue called, he is the eldest in the dormitory. His real name is Wang Biao. He is also a mixed-race of ethnic minorities. His father is Han and his mother is an extremely rare Lisu. His hometown is close to the Gongshan Nature Reserve. Now he has moved to Baoshan City, more than 100 kilometers away, and settled there.
Brother Biao has a round face and is not tall, but he is strong and sturdy. He really lives up to the name "Biao".
Moreover, Brother Biao had many romantic affairs in college. Although he looked honest, he was sweet-mouthed and warm-hearted, and his actions were even more passionate.
In order to meet a female netizen, he could climb over the wall of the dormitory building in the middle of the night, and then wade through a shallow landscape river to get out of the school. He is one of the most awesome people in the school.
But before he graduated from college, the plot took a sudden turn. The originally handsome and romantic Brother Biao got married after two blind dates!
By the time Chen Jue and his friends received their diplomas, Mrs. Biao was three months pregnant with her first child. It can be said that her life had taken a big turn. She turned back, stopped herself from wandering, put away her wandering thoughts, and returned to her family.
But don't be fooled by Brother Biao's behavior. He is an enthusiastic and kind person at heart. During his four years in college, he often participated in teaching activities, giving lessons and tutoring to some local left-behind children who have lost their only child in Vancouver. It is very rare that he persisted for four years regardless of rain or shine.
By the way, Chen Jue is the third child in the dormitory. He is a mixed race of Han and ethnic minorities. His father is Han, and his mother, who died of cancer, is a She ethnic group, which is more common in Wen County, Wen City.
And because his personality was sometimes active and sometimes quiet, and he was unpredictable, and he liked to pet and feed the stray cats in the school, his roommates gave him the nickname "Amao".
After completing four years of college, Chen Jue looked less and less youthful. He started to gain weight and become lazy. He turned from a cat into an old cat, and was occasionally called a fat cat.
It can be said that it is quite a fate that three such talented people gathered in one dormitory.
In addition, although the remaining three roommates are all Han Chinese and also come from all over the country, each with their own customs and distinct personalities, it is rare that they can live in harmony under the same roof for four years, and even keep in touch with each other after so many years of graduation.
…
After leaving Kunming Airport, Chen Jue took a taxi to the booked hotel.
The hotel is over 200 per night, which is not expensive. I specially selected one that opened within this year. The decoration environment is OK. It is not as good as the seaside homestay I stayed in before, but it is cleaner.
After checking in and putting his luggage away, Chen Jue went out to the nearby downtown commercial street to eat some local snacks and delicacies of Kunming City.
I had a big bowl of small pot rice noodles with steamed chicken, and bought some flowering potatoes and grilled tofu while visiting the night market. I also packed some flower cakes to take back to the hotel to try.
After getting used to the light seafood flavors of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it is also very good to occasionally try the sour, salty and spicy flavors of Yunnan Province.
After having a hearty meal to satisfy his stomach, Chen Jue lay on the bed in the hotel and read a book.
Before leaving, I took a few newly bought medical books, which covered the identification and preparation of Chinese herbal medicines, as well as knowledge on human body structure, acupuncture points, and so on.
As his practice became more advanced, Chen Jue became extremely concerned about exploring his own human body, fearing that something might go wrong while practicing boxing and inner alchemy.
They are also afraid that they may not recognize the properties of the medicine and take supplements indiscriminately, which may cause more problems for the body and leave hidden dangers that cannot even be detected by the panel.
With the [Unknown Blocked] status, Chen Jue had roughly guessed that the panel was not omnipotent. He still had to rely on himself when necessary.
…
I did not practice that night, but read a book until 10 o'clock and then lay down to sleep.
The next day, I got up early and took a taxi to the high-speed rail station in Kunshi. It was already noon when I arrived in Baoshan City.
While in the car, Chen Jue was reading a book while chatting with Wang Biao on WeChat.
When they got out of Baoshan Station, they saw Wang Biao, who had taken half a day off from work, waving enthusiastically at Chen Jue outside the exit gate.
"Oh my god! Old cat, are you trying to turn someone into a living being?"
"Why do I feel like you've grown taller, stronger, and whiter! I haven't seen you for a few years, and I almost didn't recognize you just now!" Wang Biao was also a little surprised by Chen Jue's changes.
Ever since Chen Jue began practicing, his figure and appearance have undergone tremendous changes. The most obvious change is that he has grown taller, his skin has become better, his figure has become stronger, and he has taken off the glasses he had worn for more than ten years. His whole body exudes an indescribable healthy temperament.
It is extremely conspicuous among the crowd leaving the station, like a crane standing out among chickens, and the rate of turning heads is very high!
"Haha, just think of me as having a second growth spurt!" When meeting his roommate, Chen Jue did not hesitate and walked up to him and put his arm around his shoulders.
As for the two large bags of luggage, Chen Jue put them in the trunk of the SUV driven by the other party.
The two talked and laughed along the way, chatted with each other about their recent situation, and lamented that time had passed so quickly since graduation from college.
The group of little funny guys in the dormitory are now like clockwork, working, getting married, buying houses, and those who work harder have started their own businesses, or have children like Wang Biao to pass on the legacy to the next generation. In short, everyone seems to be running forward under heavy load along this set track.
As for Chen Jue, he was like Monkey King, jumping out of the Three Realms and Five Elements. An unexpectedly awakened attribute panel suddenly broke his miserable and ordinary life.
It can even be said that it directly changed his destiny!
…
I chatted a lot with Brother Biao in the car, and they both expressed their feelings to each other. During the conversation, I learned from each other that the fourth roommate in the dormitory, Zhou Anping, was also about to get married. Chen Jue was also slightly surprised.
So, out of the six people in the dormitory, there are only two who are not married. One is Cheng Wei (Wei Gou), the fifth one who is starting a business. He is mean and funny, and is the happy pill that adjusts the atmosphere in the dormitory. The remaining one is Chen Jue, who accidentally embarked on the path of cultivation.
"If there was no such panel, and my family was as happy as ordinary people's, maybe I would be the same as them?"
"Chasing money, encountering love, building a family, working hard in career, having children, supporting the elderly..." Chen Jue thought like this, and when he came to his senses, the car had arrived at a new residential area in Baoshan City.
I parked the car, took two boxes of nutritional supplements from the ones I had brought with me and went upstairs. I couldn't go empty-handed when visiting someone's home.
As soon as you enter the door, there is a large table of hot dishes. There is also a seat and bowls and chopsticks reserved for Chen Jue, all of which were prepared in advance by Biaoge's parents.
As for Brother Biao's wife, who was pregnant with her second child, she came over with a big belly and greeted Chen Jue with a smile.
This is a gentle and virtuous young woman. Although she looks ordinary and dresses a little old-fashioned and mature, she is completely devoted to Brother Biao and keeps the household in good order.
I also met Brother Biao at his wedding on the eve of graduation. We knew each other and were in the same roommate WeChat group. We would occasionally share our lives and chat with each other. Whenever they met, Chen Jue called her "Sister Biao".
However, when approaching the pregnant Mrs. Biao, Chen Jue's ears suddenly moved, and he heard a very faint heartbeat.
That was the heartbeat of someone other than the adults in the room. It should be the baby in Sister Biao's belly.
In addition, the pores on Chen Jue's body suddenly stood up slightly, and the hairs all over his body swayed gently, as if affected by some energy fluctuations.
How do you describe that feeling?
Previously, when he was on a plane at an altitude of ten thousand meters, Chen Jue used his keen senses to detect the weak cosmic radiation from outer space. However, that kind of cosmic radiation made him feel uncomfortable, just like a CT scan in the emergency room of a hospital. It can be considered radiation that has a negative impact on the human body.
And what Chen Jue felt now was an extremely subtle, even weak, almost undetectable radiation-like wave coming from Mrs. Biao's belly.
This fluctuation gave him an extremely comfortable, gentle, inclusive and close feeling, like returning to the mother's womb.
The feeling was extremely mysterious, as if Chen Jue had accidentally entered the "fetal breathing" state after practicing the small and large circulations!
