Chapter 466: Little crybaby?
According to the schools rules, freshmen were not allowed to live outside the school.
However, Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue were both wasteland reclaimers. Although the wasteland reclaimers had arranged for the practical training courses, and Han Jiangxue was also a partic.i.p.ant of the World Cup, the school turned a blind eye to it and did not care too much.
That night, they didnt go out for dinner. Instead, they chose to stay in the house that Xia Yan had rented in the maple forest community.
The last time Jiang Xiao was here, it was during the final exams.
Jiang Xiao smiled again at the mention of the final exam.
Little brat, what kind of smile is that? you dont have good intentions, do you? Wu Yao walked out of the kitchen with a can of beer in his hand. When he saw Jiang Xiao smiling on the sofa, he couldnt help but raise his eyebrows and ask.
You dont understand, Jiang Xiao shook his head.
Hehe, someones was.h.i.+ng socks!
Tsk. Wu Yao snorted and sat down on the sofa at the side. He raised his head and took a sip of beer. When he looked at the TV, he realized that they were watching an animated film, the nostalgic cla.s.sic Lotus Lamp.
On the sofa opposite the TV, Jiang Xiao and Xia Yan, the two with buzzcut hair, were actually watching with great interest.
Wu Yao burped and asked,Hey, brat, I heard youre going to partic.i.p.ate in the world Cup?
Jiang Xiao watched the cartoon intently and said,Ah, he said.
Wu Yao turned around and couldnt help but take a few more glances at Jiang Xiao.Not bad, kid. Lets not talk about whether youll be selected or not. Your courage is indeed commendable.
Jiang Xiao sat up, stretched out his hand, and picked up a bag of potato chips from the coffee table. He grabbed a few pieces and put them into his mouth, chewing and saying,Then take a look.
Hey, give me some. Xia Yan, who was lying limply on the sofa, touched Jiang Xiaos thigh with her knee.
If I eat it, you eat it too. If I dont eat it, you wont remember. Jiang Xiao turned around to look at Xia Yan.
Xia Yans eyes widened.Ill eat! Ill eat!
What are you eating, its almost time for dinner! In the kitchen, Han Jiangxue suddenly opened the door and walked into the living room with a plate of stir-fried green beans in her hands.The two of you, go bring the table over.
Xia Yan looked at Han Jiangxue pitifully and got up to go to the kitchen with Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao had been sitting on the sofa and watching TV while waiting for the servants to serve the dishes. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he was elated.
He thought it would be Han Jiangxue or song chunxi, the head chef. To his surprise, the one wearing an ap.r.o.n and cooking was he Xu.
Looking at this technique, tsk tsk
Jiang Xiao had always admired those who could lift a spoon and looked cool. However, Jiang Xiao had never learned how to do it before and had never tried it out.
Haha, hows your brother Xus skill? He Xu said with a smile and turned to look at Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao smiled disdainfully and said,Im just afraid of hurting you. My cooking skills have already reached the pinnacle, and this little gaudy trick is a piece of cake for me.
He Xu pouted in disbelief. He placed the preserved meat with chili on a plate and said,You? Ill be your a.s.sistant? Im going to make your hometowns three delicacies.
I dont need to do anything on this small occasion. Jiang Xiao picked up the piece of bacon with chili and chuckled.Ive been cooking dumplings at home with a spoon. You, hurry up and practice!
He Xu was speechless.
Behind him, Xia Yan, who was moving the table, almost fell. She stared at Jiang Xiao with widened eyes and asked,Youre even stirring the dumpling soup? How come you didnt die from the heat?
Song chunxi, who was cutting vegetables at the side, almost missed her hand. She had always been gentle and soft, but now she impatiently urged,You two, hurry up and leave. Leave quickly, dont cause any trouble.
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Xia Yan was speechless.
After the lotus lamp on the TV finished playing, there were six empty beer cans on the coffee table in front of Wu Yao. Eight dishes and one soup were finally ready.
Everyone gathered again. It was their first gathering after the new year and they were glad that they were still alive.
This sentence sounded serious, but the actual situation was as such.
Jiang Xiao and Xia Yan sat next to each other and the table at home couldnt be turned. Hence, they were trying their best to eat the dishes in front of them.
Perhaps because they had the same taste, the two of them had their eyes on the pineapple sweet and sour pork.
Jiang Xiao ate the meat while Xia Yan ate the pineapple. The two of them ate one after another and cooperated very well.
In the end, Han Jiangxue couldnt stand it anymore and placed a plate of cold dish in front of them before taking away the remaining half of the plate of pineapple and GRU meat
Its all your fault for eating so fast. Xia Yan couldnt help but kick Jiang Xiao under the table.
Jiang Xiao glanced at Xia Yan in a bad mood and suddenly thought of something.By the way, Xia Yan, what was your average score at the end of the semester last semester?
His voice was not soft, and everyone at the table looked over curiously.
They were not curious about Xia Yans results, but rather, they were curious about why Jiang Xiao was so loud.
Xia Yans face stiffened and she said,forget I forgot!
Jiang Xiao took out his mobile phone from his pocket.Its alright. Ill help you check.
Xia Yans smile was a little forced and she said,I forgot the pa.s.sword to my schools website.
Jiang Xiao chuckled.Its alright. Ill help you remember.
Under the table, Xia Yan reached out and grabbed Jiang Xiaos sleeve.Xiaopi, first- Dont investigate anymore, just eat, eat first.
Eating is more important?
Is was.h.i.+ng clothes okay? Is was.h.i.+ng the socks okay?
Song chunxi seemed to have noticed something fishy. She smiled and picked up her gla.s.s.Weve been having dinner for so long. I forgot to congratulate xiaopi on getting three recommendation letters.
He Xu also looked at Jiang Xiao in admiration and picked up his gla.s.s.Its really amazing, really amazing.
Wu Yao nodded his head in agreement.I wish you a victory in the schools selection!
Uh, thank you. Thank you, everyone. Jiang Xiao picked up the beer while Xia Yan heaved a sigh of relief. She had been given a probation period.
After Downing a gla.s.s of wine, Jiang Xiao said,By the way, your joint training will have to wait for a few days. Our first team will be going on a mission soon.
What? Song chunxi looked at Jiang Xiao curiously and asked,why didnt I know?
Jiang Xiao said,instructor Qin w.a.n.gchuan told me about it. He also told us to be on standby. Ill be taking part in this experiential learning. Itll be our first joint mission.
Song chunxi frowned slightly and looked at Xia Yan before saying,Change it to juice.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly waved his hands and said,theres no need, theres no need. He said that hes very busy today and gave me a break. Ill be on standby tomorrow.
Han Jiangxue suddenly said,you havent reached Xinghe yet. Youre not suitable to train with us.
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and said,in fact, Im not the one training with you. The three of you will be training with me. Uh Our destination this time should be BA min province. Instructor Qin is going to take me to absorb the spirit tear star bead, and at the same time, train you guys and let you see the world.
Han Jiangxue frowned slightly and asked,tears spirit?
Xia Yan grabbed Jiang Xiaos mobile phone and immediately opened the search engine to look for the unfamiliar star bead.
She had never read about this star bead in the books.
I found it. Its a specialty star bead from eight min province, Egret Island City, and Brahma Temple. Its the only one in the country. Xia Yan was rather excited and mumbled softly.
Jiang Xiao said,dont look at the internet. Its not accurate. Look at my memo. Theres an accurate introduction to the spirit tear star bead.
Eh? Xia Yan was stunned for a moment before exiting the webpage and opening Jiang Xiaos memo. She read,
Spirit tear star bead (gold quality)
Star techniques:
1. Clear tears (silver quality): through crying, summon a rain of tears filled with star power. Within the range of the rain of tears, all negative states will be purified.
[ 2. Sad tears (gold quality): through crying, it summons a rain of tears filled with star power. Within the range of the rain of tears, it will burn the targets vitality and cause all targets within the range to be in low spirits.]
3. Domain tear (gold quality): through crying, summon a rain of tears filled with star power and create a tear domain.
Jiang Xiaos expression was a little unnatural. He had long known about the specific star techniques of the spirit tear star bead. What made him unhappy was why it had to summon the tear rain through crying.
Do I have to cry every time I use a STAR technique?
Is he trying to make me cry on the stage of the World Cup under the eyes of the world?
Xia Yan carefully read the introduction of the STAR technique, then raised her head and said,This introduction isnt very detailed. Why isnt there an introduction to the realm of tears?
Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders.Instructor Qin brought me there because he wanted me to see and feel it for myself.
I hate people who keep people guessing the most. Xia Yan toot.
Han Jiangxue mumbled,Domain Such star techniques are rare.
Everyone at the table shook their heads. One should know that this group of students were all proud Children of Heaven. They were not only the Star Warriors students of Beijing, but also the students who were going to travel to the world Cup.
If even they had never come into contact with such a domain STAR technique, it already represented the preciousness and rarity of domain-type star techniques.
Jiang Xiao said indifferently,Im just guessing. Im just speculating. Its the domain. Its tear Rains domain
Everyone looked at Jiang Xiao and waited for him to continue.
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and asked in puzzlement,being myself in the rain?
Everyone was speechless.
Xia Yan was obviously hurt by the sudden turn and almost lost her breath.
Wu Yaos eyes were filled with admiration.Apprentice wasteland reclaimers do have resources that normal people dont have.
Jiang Xiao said,if you want to join, just wait for the next batch. Youre definitely strong enough.
Wu Yao raised his head and finished a can of beer.Forget it. Ill just travel around the world.
He Xu picked up his wine gla.s.s again and said,I wish you all the best, then. I wish shrimpy the best to acquire this precious domain tear STAR technique! Take it back and lets see what kind of STAR technique it is.
Jiang Xiao picked up his gla.s.s and finished the beer in one gulp. He then gestured to he Xu and accepted his well-wishes.
Song chunxi and the others were not clear about Jiang Xiaos abilities, but Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue were very clear about it.
He had absorbed the precious domain tear STAR technique?
Not only can my little toxic healer absorb all three, but he can also level up!
At that time, you might not see the precious domain tear STAR technique, but an out-of-print, high-quality, improved, and upgraded domain tear STAR technique
Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao and thought to herself, these three items seem to have perfectly solved Jiang Xiaos shortcomings!
He Im afraid its really going to take off.
Jiang Xiao keenly noticed Han Jiangxues gaze and turned around to look at her with a happy smile.
Hmph, laugh all you want. Now, laugh more. Xia Yan toot,youre going to become a little crybaby in the future.
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
