When he woke up, he could still hear the sound of the rain. It was as if a strand of hair was gently caressing his cheeks. When he walked out of the door, he saw that the sky was misty and he couldn't see the light of dawn. He stretched and went back to his room to light up the charcoal stove. He didn't know how long it would take for the rainy season to end.
Sitting in front of the charcoal stove, he scraped the pig's face that he bought yesterday. Yesterday, he only cleaned the dirt. As for the ears, eyes, nostrils, and lips, he still had to carefully scrape them. From time to time, he picked up a piece of charcoal to burn the pig's head, giving off a stench of burnt fur.
After the pig's head was cooked, he scraped off the meat. The pig's head was the essence of the pig, so it was extremely delicious whether it was stir-fried or cold.
The pig's face naturally had to be smoked dry. During the rainy season, the room always needed to be lit with charcoal to dispel moisture. Liu Changan planned to smoke a cured pig's face. Different from the traditional smoking method, Liu Changan's method might be more crisp and chewy. People with bad teeth should not eat too much, such as Zhou Dongdong, who didn't know how to stop eating, would inevitably feel pain in her teeth and chewing muscles.
After he was done, he looked at the time and realized that his phone hadn't been charged since he bought it yesterday. It had automatically shut down. While charging, he turned on the radio. He used the pig head as a topping and added ginger and garlic to a bowl of red chili noodles. In this humid weather, he drank half of the soup and felt refreshed all over.
The phone was charged and turned on. There were a lot of messages, mainly from An Nuan. There were also many classmates, including Bai Hui, Bi Wanwan, Luo Pin, Lu Yuan, Zhao Chenchen, Ma Yilin, Zhang Taole, etc. Among them were the class teacher Huang Shan and the school's vice-principal Qian Shangxue. It seemed that overnight, Liu Changan's social circle had become colorful.
Or he had become a big shot or encountered a big happy event. The tradition of gathering together to report good news or inquire about it had been the same since ancient times, just like how Fan Jin came to report good news in an endless stream.
There were too many messages to read, so Liu Changan turned off his phone again. Anyway, he had already made an appointment with An Nuan.
"How was the flavored prawns last night?" Zhou Shuling asked when she saw Liu Changan downstairs.
"It's pretty good. It's better than the supper stalls outside."
"What do you think about me setting up a supper stall?" Zhou Shuling asked hesitantly.
"Where's your breakfast stall?"
"Let's set up breakfast in the morning and supper in the evening," Zhou Shuling gritted her teeth and said.
"You won't be able to take it. You have to remember that your body doesn't belong to just one person. If you collapse, what will happen to Zhou Dongdong?" Liu Changan said seriously.
"But I want to return the money as soon as possible." As an independent woman, she had a stubborn temperament. Naturally, she didn't like to owe others. To Zhou Shuling, the sooner she returned the money, the sooner she could truly breathe a sigh of relief.
"What's the rush?" Liu Changan waved his hand. "Your current decision is the result of the pressure you've accumulated during this period of time. It's an impulsive decision caused by your psychological anxiety. You think this is the only way to get rid of those external pressures. Actually, exercise can do it too."
"Exercise?" Zhou Shuling smiled bitterly. Where would she have the time to exercise?
"Come, do some exercises with me. I guarantee that you will feel refreshed afterward." Liu Changan began to demonstrate his seedling pulling technique.
Zhou Shuling watched Liu Changan doing exercises and couldn't help but want to laugh. After Zhou Dongdong ran down, she stood under the rain canopy and learned how to do it. She swayed left and right and twisted randomly.
Zhou Shuling covered her mouth and laughed. Forget it. Liu Changan was right. He wasn't chasing her for money. In fact, other than his 200,000 yuan, she didn't owe much. Take it slow … If something happened to her body, she really didn't dare to think about what would happen to her daughter in the future.
After Zhou Shuling left with Zhou Dongdong, the little hen was sent over. But today, it was Ma Benwei who came to send the little hen.
"Brother Liu, Brother Liu, I'm out. I was just released yesterday." Ma Benwei handed the little hen to Liu Changan. His face was full of smiles. Wearing a pair of glasses, he had a more gentle and quiet temperament.
"Prison is also a kind of experience." Liu Changan said with some nostalgia.
Brother Liu is also a person with a story! Ma Benwei sighed. How old are you? You didn't need to go to prison for the crimes you committed before this year.
"Mine is administrative detention. It doesn't count as prison." Ma Benwei still wanted to argue. Prison is not a good name. That would leave a criminal record. As for the detention center, who isn't young and frivolous? It's not a big deal!
"Is there a reform through labor?"
"No. This reform through labor is slightly lower than prison. It's very serious, and there will be a criminal record. Usually, people like me who fight and affect public order. But if I admit my mistake, I will be released after a short period of time. "Ma Benwei laughed.
"Oh, can you broadcast live in the detention center?"
Speaking of live broadcasting, Ma Benwei was very depressed. "How can I … I can't play with my phone in the detention center. Every day, I just have to stand and do nothing. I receive education, read the Four Great Classical Novels, watch the news broadcast and two episodes of TV series. I have to pay for my own food. The key is that there are a lot of idiots in there. If I can broadcast live, it might be a good topic. After so many days … my popularity has dropped a lot … "
Liu Changan nodded. He felt a little regretful. That night, he helped Ma Benwei gain a lot of popularity. The live broadcast room was very lively.
"Oh right, Brother Liu, you're really popular now. Overnight, many marketing accounts and Twitter users are reposting news about you. You're a top student and a martial arts genius, and you even sacrificed yourself to save others, and your girlfriend is a famous … That internet beauty, you're practically an idol!" Ma Benwei felt that Liu Changan could use this opportunity to make his debut. He originally thought that he could not provoke a guy like Liu Changan in the future. However, he had been broadcasting last night and realized that his live broadcast room was really cold. He was very depressed. Coincidentally, he found out that Liu Changan was actually popular. He might as well look for an opportunity. Previously, he had provoked him, but he felt that Liu Changan was not the kind of person who did not know what to do.
"Priests always say that they are shepherds. In ancient times, when parents governed, they were also called shepherds. In the end, it still shows that the behavior of the people is no different from that of livestock. They run around like a swarm of bees, shouting like a swarm of bees." Liu Changan didn't care about these things. "Ignore them. After a while, their focus will naturally shift to the new hot things and people."
"Brother Liu, you are right to think this way, but it is not completely right. The key is to make good use of this opportunity. You can't waste such an opportunity. You saw our sincere cooperation last time. It was so lively and our popularity skyrocketed. This time, we will design it well. With my control and experience, and your popularity and attention, we will definitely be able to reach the top in one fell swoop and become the first brother of the bear fighting live broadcast! " Ma Benwei looked at Liu Changan eagerly. Judging from what Liu Changan did last time, Ma Benwei felt that he was very interested in live broadcasting.
"Well, when you start the live broadcast, I will beat you up again."
"No … I didn't mean that …" Ma Benwei was shocked.
"Goodbye." Liu Changan walked away on his own.
Liu Changan's reputation rose. Compared with those things in the martial arts world, a very sensational persona was more popular and could get more attention. However, as an important factor in Liu Changan's fame, Pu Shougeng also got more attention. Although the popularity was negative, after all, there were too many people who knew him.
People had seen enough of the drama of traditional martial arts being abused by fighting masters. It was estimated that there would be no hype effect if there was any traditional martial arts "master" who was like a monkey performing with fighting masters. It was time for traditional martial arts to make another wave of counterattack. By rekindling people's confidence in traditional martial arts as an entry point, it would inevitably gain countless attention. It would take advantage of the more or less hidden affection and closeness of the people for traditional martial arts, or pride, to set off a wave of hype.
