Chapter 214: Chapter 38_5Then he went downstairs to the kitchen and personally cooked ten packs of seafood noodles in a basin to take to Run Sheng. Run Sheng was still working through the night, forging iron. Seeing the big basin of noodles topped with two sticks of coarse incense, he was so happy that the corners of his mouth almost reached the sky. After reminding him once again to rest early, Li Zhiyuan went upstairs to take a bath and sleep. When he woke up, Li Zhiyuan stretched lazily and then turned his head. He saw a girl sitting at the door on a chair, holding a bowl of medicine in her hands. In this appearance, she unexpectedly seemed delicate and adorable. Alii stood up, carried the medicine to Li Zhiyuan’s bedside, sat down, and slowly moved the bowl towards the boy’s mouth. He knew, she was imitating how family elders had treated her before, feeding him medicine. Li Zhiyuan gladly accepted it. Then, early in the morning, Li Zhiyuan washed his hair. Li Sanjiang, yawning, left his room and saw Li Zhiyuan by the water jar, asking: "Little Yuanhou, what’s up, did a bird poop on your head today?" "Grandmaster, I just felt my hair was a bit oily, so I washed it." After breakfast, Li Zhiyuan went back to the house, handed the design drawings to Alii, and had her carve on the board. He himself started painting scripture banners, and with his past experience with talisman papers, this time it wasn’t difficult. Moreover, the "power" of the talisman paper, also made Li Zhiyuan believe that his scripture banner wouldn’t overstimulate, it would only agitate Little Huang Ying and not actually suppress her. By noon, all materials were prepared, and the flagpoles at Run Sheng’s were all twisted up. In the afternoon, it was time to assemble and set up the twelve array flags. Li Zhiyuan specifically added a long rope to the scripture banner so that later, Run Sheng could swing it up from a distance. Originally, Li Sanjiang thought that Ding Dalin would come over tonight to hang out because of the relocation tomorrow, but to his surprise, Ding Dalin didn’t come, and it was Tan Yunlong who showed up at night. Tan Yunlong arrived on a motorbike, with his son Tan Wenbin riding in the back. Father and son brought quite a few gifts. On the back of the motorbike, a mattress and a bag of toiletries were tied up. It turned out that the city’s Bureau of Education was conducting an inspection, so the local high school had to interrupt summer classes, giving the students a week off until the inspection was over. Tan Yunlong said he was busy with work, and his wife had to travel for work, so he could only leave his son here for care, which would be a good opportunity to study with Little Yuan. Li Sanjiang misheard it as coming to tutor Little Yuanhou. However, aside from occasionally being a bit confused about certain things, Li Sanjiang was mostly sharp; he firmly refused the living expenses Tan Yunlong offered and patted his chest, promising that he would take good care of his son, knowing full well the necessity of maintaining good relations with the police station. Tan Yunlong walked up to Li Zhiyuan, bent down, patted Li Zhiyuan’s shoulder, and whispered: "Those two who are unconscious, they’re about to wake up." S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Li Zhiyuan nodded, meaning that the group of water monkeys was also about to be done digging. "Binbin, it’ll be trouble for you. If he doesn’t listen to you, call me, I’ll beat him to death." Li Zhiyuan turned to look at Tan Wenbin who was standing behind, and Tan Wenbin gave Li Zhiyuan a "you know" smile. Tan Yunlong left. Tan Wenbin, holding the bedding, asked: "Little Yuan, where’s your room, shall I sleep with you?" Li Zhiyuan looked at Run Sheng, who immediately walked to Tan Wenbin’s side, took his bedding, set up another round table next to his own, and efficiently laid out the bedding, patting it: "Come on, you sleep here with me tonight." Far from being dissatisfied, Tan Wenbin was actually a bit excited and nodded, "Okay!" After nightfall, Li Zhiyuan went to sleep early as he needed to stay up late the next night and had to conserve energy today. Run Sheng’s work was done, and he could finally relax and continue to watch TV. Tan Wenbin joined him, and after they watched the TV until it was just a static black and white screen, Tan Wenbin brought out a gaming console and taught Run Sheng how to play Tetris, which also had a built-in airplane game. Run Sheng was having a lot of fun, but soon, the game console ran out of battery. "Ah, I forgot to bring batteries." "No problem, let’s sleep then." Run Sheng turned off the light and climbed onto the table. Tan Wenbin also lay down on the table across. In the pitch-dark first floor, across was full of paper effigies, neatly lining up under the moonlight. Tan Wenbin felt it was quite atmospheric, a little scared but also excited. He lay on his side toward Run Sheng, covered half his face with the blanket, and with his mouth in the blanket, asked in a muffled voice: "Run Sheng, do you know about Corpses?" "Yes." "The kind where people die and fall into the water?" "What else?" "The kind that can climb out of the water after they die?" "What else?" Hearing this reply, Tan Wenbin’s eyes shone with excitement as he silently tucked his feet, which had been sticking out, back under the blanket. "Run Sheng, have you ever fished one out?" "I have." "You’re really awesome." "Little Yuan is even more impressive." "Hehe, I told my dad that I wanted to come here to study, but actually, I wanted to see if there’s a chance to see a Corpse." The sudden school break was true, but his mom going on a business trip was a lie; as soon as he suggested it, his parents immediately agreed. Because in the eyes of Tan Yunlong and his wife, Li Zhiyuan was no longer just someone else’s child, he belonged to the heavenly family! Tan Yunlong, reliable in handling matters, specifically called the town high school to inquire about transferring and skipping grades; they asked which school his child had previously attended and what grade he was in, Tan Yunlong having seen Li Zhiyuan’s dossier before, simply reported the Youth Class.
