Early in the morning, dew condensed on the bow, and traces of wetness appeared on the cello case.
In such humid weather, it was reasonable to take good care of them, but Huai Shi didn't have the mood to do so.
After practicing the cello for two hours and meditating as usual, he sat on the steps of the garden in a daze.
Then he felt a chill on his butt.
"I'll just put a cushion here another day."
After he couldn't sit anymore, he stood up, patted the dust off his pants, and strolled aimlessly around the bare garden.
The stitches on his arm still hurt as he swung his arm.
It reminded him once again how dangerous he was last night.
No, it should be said that it deeply reminded him what kind of situation he was in now … The current him was far from being able to guarantee his own safety.
Although he often felt that it was meaningless to continue living such a poor and difficult life, no one would feel that it was better to be alive than to be dead.
Besides, Huai Shi's life hadn't really begun yet.
It was good to be alive.
He wanted to stay a little longer.
"Are you in the garden in a daze again?"
He suddenly heard the sound of the Crow landing on the fence. "Can't you go somewhere else?"
"Can't I like it?"
"Then you have to work harder, Huai Shi. The sublimation is almost complete." She sighed in disappointment and raised her wings. "Just a little bit more."
Huai Shi couldn't raise his spirits at all. "What's the use of the sublimation? Can you sprinkle more chili powder?
No matter how powerful it is, it can't be compared to the one last night. "
"How many times have I said that the Calamity Ash is just a by-product of your soul attribute. Once the sublimation is complete, the power of your soul will have a breakthrough. Besides, do you really think that the monkey yesterday really relied on his own ability?"
"Hmm?"
"Oh, the Sacred Mark in the Yingzhou Monogatari genealogy belongs to the third stage of aetherization."
Crow looked at him meaningfully, "Ascension is just the beginning, Huai Shi. Ascenders with great potential usually awaken at the age of eleven or twelve. You're already a step behind, so don't slack off.
Perhaps you wish to return to tranquility after this, but I think you must first understand that the owner of the Book of Destiny is destined to step on the path to the peak of this world. Power, wealth, and beauties are all within reach, but it is impossible for them to have a peaceful life. "
Huai Shi was silent for a long time before he held the notebook in his hand.
"… Is it too late for me to throw this thing away?"
Crow thought for a moment and suddenly became excited: "Although I don't recommend you do this, this has never happened before in history. I'm very curious what will happen when the time comes. Why don't you give it a try?"
Huai Shi rolled his eyes.
"So, since you can't resist, just enjoy it." Crow stretched out his wings sympathetically and patted him on the shoulder: "At least, you still have a peaceful life in a certain sense."
Yes, he ignored the fact that he was so poor that he had to work in a brothel, that he was inexplicably chased by undead on the road, and that he was now living with a bald cowherd and being used as bait …
For some reason, thinking of this, Huai Shi suddenly thought of a girl he had only seen twice, a girl in a wheelchair who seemed to be only two or three years older than him.
Ai Qing.
He seemed to have seen her somewhere before, but if he thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to have any similar memories in the short and empty first half of his life.
No matter what, no one would forget such a beautiful young lady sitting in a wheelchair, right?
He scratched his head, but no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't remember.
It wasn't until the sound of a car horn at the door reminded him to go to work that he reluctantly picked up the piano case and walked out.
The half-assed cowherd Huai Shi ushered in a new day of torment …
And then, of course, he got into trouble.
.
.
"Didn't you come to work here to sell? Why are you pretending to be a wolf in sheep's clothing? "
In front of Yoo Dong-ri, the lean woman who was old enough to be Huai Shi's mother angrily pointed at Huai Shi behind him and suddenly threw a glass of wine at him.
"I've opened more than a dozen champagne towers here. Can't he come over and have a few drinks with me? Do you really think you're a fairy? Call your manager out, I don't f * cking believe it today … "
In the chaos, Huai Shi laughed dryly at the back, not knowing what to say. In the end, he was pushed out in a flurry.
After a while, Yoo Dong-ri finally settled the trouble. After searching for a long time, he found Huai Shi waiting for lunch in front of the pancake stall at the back door of the clubhouse.
This guy had been arrogant since he had an allowance of 800 yuan a day. He even dared to buy pancakes with two ham sausages. He looked so happy that Yoo Dong-ri, who was originally depressed, couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. "How did you get six complaints on the second day of work?"
Huai Shi thought seriously for a long time and asked tentatively, "Maybe it's because I'm good-looking?"
"Huai Shi …" Yoo Dong-ri sighed. "You've been splashed with wine and scratched on your face. Why do you look like you're fine?"
"What can I do?"
Huai Shi looked at him blankly. "When we go back, kick her in the ass and tell her not to bully a poor young man?
Besides, it's all expected. What's there to be angry about? If I was angry about this, I would have died four or five years ago. "
"…"
Yoo Dong-ri was speechless. He could only say, "This guy always has some unexpected strengths in strange aspects."
Ever since he made things difficult for Huai Shi at work, there had been a lot of annoying things, but he had never seen this guy throw a tantrum or flip the table. Even when he was splashed with wine, he just smiled and moved to the side. He did not fight back when he was hit or scolded.
Although he talked dirty in private, his patience was so good that it made people speechless.
For an optimist to be so happy to such an extent, it made people wonder if he was an idiot or something else.
Looking at him smiling and waiting for the pancakes, Yoo Dong-ri didn't know why, but he always felt a little irritated. He always felt like he was forcing a good girl into prostitution and bullying an honest person. His conscience had been greatly damaged.
"Don't wait. Let's go."
Yoo Dong-ri pulled him back to change clothes. "We don't have to work in the afternoon. I'll take you to eat something good."
"Are you serious? You finally have a conscience? "Huai Shi was surprised." Then when are you going to pay the electricity bill? "
Yoo Dong-ri was going up the stairs and almost twisted his waist. He looked back and glared. "I can be your bodyguard for free, but why do I have to pay the electricity bill?"
"You want to use the water heater."
Huai Shi said, "Can't I take a cold shower?"
"Hey, do you have a conscience? I was injured to save you yesterday. Besides, taking a cold shower is bad for the skin! "
"… Yeah, it's also bad for the hair." Huai Shi, who was following behind, added.
It was visible to the naked eye that Liu Dongli, who was on the stairs, staggered and almost rolled down.
When changing clothes, Huai Shi specially wore sunglasses and a huge mask to cover his face. He looked like an outlaw who was ready to cause trouble at any time.
It couldn't be helped. It was one thing to work in a brothel, but it was another thing to be seen and photographed by classmates.
It wasn't easy to fool them last time. This time, he couldn't be recognized.
Unfortunately … things often didn't work according to one's will. Huai Shi, who was always unlucky, had just stepped out when he heard shouts behind him.
"Is it Little Shi? It's Little Shi! "
