After the meal, the whole family sat together on the sofa in the living room.
"That's it, you guys..."
Xia Haoran's eyes flashed slightly, unable to withstand the burning gazes of his parents. He drank half a glass of water in one breath, considered his words in his mind, cleared his throat, and began to tell a story in an orderly manner.
Of course, this was written and directed by classmate Xia Haoran, so I won’t tell you how credible it is.
During the summer vacation, I went to Huashan to visit, and there I met an old man with a white beard who had an immortal spirit and a bright spirit. The old man saw that although he was weak in body, his perseverance and strong bones were a good thing, so he accepted him shamelessly.
I became my apprentice and taught myself a set of martial arts techniques to cultivate my body. During the entire summer vacation, for nearly two months, I followed the old man step by step, studying and practicing hard. Now I have a small amount of strength.
Achievement.
Of course, it is impossible for him to tell the truth. There is an additional fictional character in it, that is, the old man with the white beard. In Xia Haoran's mouth, the old man with the white beard is his master. His current changes and achievements are all due to
The cultivation of that master.
"Oh my God! Such a thing actually exists. It's so... so unbelievable!"
Mom murmured to herself, without caring about her image at all, she stood in front of Xia Haoran, stretched out her hand and put it on Xia Haoran's cheek, touching it up and down.
Xia Haoran suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "Mom, why are you touching me?"
My mother said: "Son, you don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense all of a sudden? It's okay, you're still fine."
Xia Haoran smiled and said: "Of course I don't have a fever, I'm normal."
Dad also said beside him: "Son, you're fine. However, what you just said is really mysterious. It looks a bit like a scene in a costume TV series! You didn't lie to us, did you?"
"of course it's true!"
Xia Haoran said categorically: "Mom and Dad, you also know that there are many things in this world that cannot be explained by science. People all know that evil words can confuse people, and three people can become a tiger, but they don't know that there is another saying called
'No smoke without fire'? In fact, in our lives, there are still too many things that cannot be explained by science, so we have to attribute them to myths and legends to block the mouths of all living beings. In fact, this
It is well-founded. You must know that any rumors, legends, or myths can be based on reality. For example, gods are also human beings, but they are just stronger than ordinary people. They can often do things that ordinary people cannot
It’s just something you can’t do even if you think of it!”
Having said this, Xia Haoran asked his mother for a one-yuan coin that he had just found while buying vegetables at the market. Then he put it in his palm and closed it. After a while, he opened his palm again and said to them: "Look, what is this?"
?”
"This is a round ball." Dad said.
"Son, can you do magic?" Mom asked happily.
Just now Xia Haoran put a coin in his palm, and after a while it turned into a small ball. Lin Shufen thought that her son had changed the coin away, and then it turned into a small ball again!
"Mom, take a closer look, what happened to this ball?" Xia Haoran said.
After hearing what her son said, Lin Shufen quickly picked up the small ball in Xia Haoran's hand, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully. "Oh my God! This is the one-yuan coin just now." After saying that, he handed it over again.
Dad.
Xia Guohao took the little warm ball with trembling hands, and like an archaeologist, he studied it with Lin Shufen for a long time, and then looked up at Xia Haoran again.
"This," the two of them looked hesitant to speak at the same time, staring at Xia Haoran with expressions of disbelief and shock.
"That's what happened. You may think it's a little strange, but that's the fact. I have been practicing hard under the guidance of my master throughout the holiday. Your son, I am now a real martial arts master." Xia Haoran said with a serious face.
He originally wanted to say cultivator, but after all, it was too scary, and it would be difficult for parents to understand and accept it. It would be better to just say that martial arts masters would be easier to accept.
Even so, after Xia Haoran finished speaking, his parents still couldn't come to their senses for a long time.
Xia Haoran didn't say anything, and lightly moved towards the teacup on the table. On the coffee table about two meters away from them, the teacup floated towards him, as if it was invisibly grabbed by a hand. Xia Haoran
Gently grab the tea cup in your hand.
"Did you see it? This is the method after practicing, so I didn't lie to you." Xia Haoran took a deep breath and said solemnly.
No matter how much he said, it was better to do something convincing. Xia Haoran had decided to show off his cards with his parents, so he didn't hold back at all and simply showed his hand again.
"Oh my god, this... this is really a ghost! Son, do you know magic? How come the teacup moves on its own?" Lin Shufen stood up again with a loud sound, her pupils widening as if they were about to protrude.
Xia Haoran gave them a dumbfounded look and said, "What kind of magic? I just used my power to suck the cup over with Qigong."
"Is this the legendary 'photography from the air'? Son, can I learn this? Can I do this after I finish learning?" Dad, a martial arts fan, said happily.
"Of course! Although you two are now past the best age for practicing, with me, a martial arts master, assisting you, you should be able to do just fine. Moreover, after practicing, you can not only strengthen your body and enhance your memory, but also delay aging.
It’s about beauty and beauty.”
Having said this, Xia Haoran stood up suddenly, put on a Bruce Lee pose, and said: "Mom and Dad, you also know that your son used to be weak and sickly, but now he is as strong as a cow and has all kinds of diseases all over his body.
I have endless efforts. Moreover, haven’t you noticed that your son has become smarter? His academic performance is now the first in the class.”
"It's good to keep fit, it's good to keep fit! Son, your body has been weak since you were a child, and mom has been worried that your body will still be like that when you grow up. Also, now that your academic performance is so good, mom is finally relieved." Lin Shufen
He squeezed Xia Haoran's arm hard and found that his arm looked thin and tender on the surface, but was extremely strong when pinched. He said with red eyes and a face full of joy.
Xia Guohao nodded after hearing this, patted Xia Haoran on the shoulder and said, "Yes, you kid, now I can finally put your mind at ease."
Looking at her son in front of her, Lin Shufen felt inexplicable joy in her eyes. Xia Haoran today is indeed completely different from before. But suddenly, a light flashed in her mind, and her whole body trembled. The surprise on her face turned into a flash.
turned into solemnity and worry.
"Son, you...come here, I'll ask you a question."
Xia Haoran was a little shocked, but he still came to his mother and said, "Well, tell me, Mom!"
Lin Shufen opened her mouth several times, but she couldn't say anything because the thoughts that flashed through her at that moment were so scary that she couldn't believe it.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? If you have any questions, just ask. Is there anything else you can't say to me?" Seeing his mother's appearance, Xia Haoran raised his eyebrows slightly and said a little strangely.
Lin Shufen's face changed again and again. After some hesitation, she said earnestly: "Son, you are just like those martial arts masters in the TV series. With such high martial arts skills, you must not be young and energetic and fight with others.
If someone really loses his life, he will not only harm others, but also himself!"
"Son, what your mother said is exactly what I'm worried about. It's good to have good martial arts, but your mother and I don't really care whether your martial arts is good or not, as long as you are safe and healthy." Xia Guohao followed.
road.
As the old saying goes, Confucianism disrupts the law with literature, while chivalry violates the law with martial arts.
Xia Haoran never expected that his parents were worried about this, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, he didn't say anything about cultivation, otherwise they would be more worried that he would lose control and kill innocent people indiscriminately because of his high martial arts skills.
"You, second boss, can rest assured that it will not be like what you just said. According to the regulations of cultivators, unless it is absolutely necessary, these supernatural abilities cannot be easily revealed in front of ordinary people, otherwise you will be severely punished!
When I was going down the mountain, my master had repeatedly warned me about this. Besides, parents, don’t you understand that with your son’s character, he is like a person who fights to win over those who cause trouble?
?In addition, matters related to cultivation, including our conversation today, are only known to the three of us in the family. I don’t want to be arrested by the relevant departments and used as a guinea pig for research." Xia Haoran quickly comforted.
When they heard that there were regulations, Xia Guohao and Lin Shufen immediately felt more relieved. In addition, their son had been a kind-hearted and simple child since he was a child. In the past, they were worried that he would suffer because of this, but now he has finally learned a powerful skill.
I will definitely not suffer losses again in the future. This is a great good thing. I should be happy, so why worry about it?
Thinking of this, Xia Guohao and Lin Shufen turned from worry to joy, their faces full of joy.
Xia Haoran saw that his parents basically believed his words and felt relieved. He couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly changed the subject and said: "Mom and Dad, I have checked your health. Although you are not able to practice yet,
But under the guidance of a great master like me, I can officially practice cultivation in less than a month. The living conditions are so good now, and many people in their 70s and 80s outside take care of themselves like young people. But Dad, you are better,
I have been working in a factory all year round, and when I am only in my forties, I look like an old man in his sixties or seventies. It is not okay to continue like this."
When Xia Guohao heard this, he seemed to suddenly think of something. He quickly took Xia Haoran's hand and said eagerly: "Son, didn't you just say that you wanted to teach us some boxing skills? Can you do it now?"
"It's a bit late today. I have to go back to my room to study. Tomorrow, at 6 o'clock in the morning, Mom, you will be there too." Xia Haoran stood up hurriedly. He knew that he had said too much tonight.
The parents needed to digest the things properly, so they went back to their own rooms and left space for them.
In the living room, the two people were left staring at each other with blank faces. After a long time, the sound of talking was heard.
"Lao Xia, you said these mysterious things that my son said tonight, I am still in a daze. Practicing qigong, martial arts masters, and what you said about 'retrieving objects from the air', it feels untrue even if I think about it.
.”
"What's the point? If you haven't seen those costume dramas on TV, isn't that how they are played?"
