Fighting Break Sphere: My Days as a Tutor at Canaan College

Chapter 128 Collecting Gas
After pondering for a few moments, he could not find any words to match it. Liu Xi could only cough lightly, skipping this process, and went forward to help Xiao Yue up, saying in a gentle voice:

"Now that you have become my disciple, you must not give up on your cultivation halfway. If you have any difficulties, just tell me."

"Yes, disciple will obey the master's order!"

Xiao Yue bowed her head and clasped her fists in response.

Seeing this, Liu Xi nodded slightly. He stood with his hands behind his back, pursed his lips and pondered for a while, took out a pack of unopened cigarettes from his ring, and handed it to Xiao Yue.

"At this stage, you should focus on improving your Dou Qi training speed. Take this pack of cigarettes first. I will try to find some pills suitable for Dou Qi practitioners to assist you in your training."

"Thank you Master!"

Xiao Yue bit her delicate lips, took the cigarette, and bowed again.

Liu Xi glanced at her, waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to be so polite, then looked up and said:

"It's getting late today, you should go back... Oh, I forgot to tell you that the Xiao family's top management has already known about your situation, and they won't let you do servant work anymore. In the future, you don't have to come to me unless you have problems with your cultivation. This way you can have more time to do other things."

Having said this, he paused and continued:

"I heard you say this morning that your mother seems to be in poor health? But you don't have money to see a doctor?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yue was shocked, and she looked up at him and replied:
"Thank you for your concern, Master. It's just that things are not what you think. My mother's illness has been seen by many doctors in the family and even outside, but they all said that it was a physical weakness caused by mental illness and worry. If the mental illness cannot be cured, no matter how much money is spent or how many medicines are taken, it will be useless. However, you know that mental illness is difficult to cure. My mother's...her mental illness is..."

"Is it because of your father?"

Because he had asked about Xiao Yue's past two days ago, Liu Xi guessed it easily.

And the fact was just as he guessed. Xiao Yue pursed her lips and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Liu Xi touched his beardless chin and sighed:
"If it is a mental illness, even if it is a pharmacist, let alone a doctor, if they cannot solve the patient's mental problems, they can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause."

Hearing this, perhaps because she was asked about her mother's illness, Xiao Yue felt a little depressed. She bowed to Liu Xi and left as she had said before.

In the courtyard, Liu Xi watched the girl's back gradually fade out of his sight, his eyelids drooped slowly, but he opened the system virtual panel and checked the new year of life that had arrived in his account.

In fact, just after Xiao Yue kowtowing to him and completed the ceremony of becoming his apprentice, the electronic synthesized voice of the system rang in his mind. However, he still wanted to see with his own eyes how much time he had left!

As his lifespan was passing, he avoided the string of scarlet numbers, but now that his lifespan had increased, he thought it necessary to witness it with his own eyes to make sure that it had really been extended.

Of course, he did not doubt the possible calculation errors in the system.

Well, he definitely didn't mean that...

[Remaining lifespan: fifty-two years, nine months, eighteen days, and five hours! ]

Seeing that his life span had really been extended, Liu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, closed the panel, then walked forward to close the courtyard door and walked into the house.

Tonight, he was going to do something for the first time that he had been planning for a long time.

"I'll go ask Xiao Yan tomorrow to see if he has any 'Foundation Building Spiritual Liquid' left over from the Dou Qi stage. That thing is very effective in assisting Dou Qi cultivation! I'll bring it over to Xiao Yue when the time comes. This will help her level up sooner, and I'll be able to get the unknown random rewards issued by the system sooner..."

While mumbling to himself, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes with exactly ten mysterious cigarettes left.

Next, he closed the doors and windows of the house one by one, and then took out ten large transparent glass bottles from the ring.

Snapped!
ba da~
After that, he took out the silver lighter produced by the system, lit the cigarette, and started smoking.

In less than half a cup of tea, the first cigarette of the day was finished.

In order to conduct this experiment tonight, he specially stored up today's quota of ten cigarettes until the evening.

What kind of experiment is it for?
We will know the result later.

It is visible to the naked eye that after a cigarette is finished, the house is filled with smoke because the doors and windows are closed and the environment is relatively closed. The grayish-white mist is curling around the whole house.

Liu Xi was staring at the gray-white mist that had not dissipated for a long time due to the closed environment, and his eyes were slightly narrowed.

After looking at it for a few breaths, he raised his hand and picked up one of the ten transparent glass bottles he had taken out earlier, and then pulled out the stopper blocking the bottle mouth.

Then, he used a one-day Seven-Star Grand Fighter Experience Card, and immediately began to mobilize the fighting spirit in his body, allowing the fighting spirit in his body to be released out of his body.

sieve! sieve!
sieve……

Under the control of his keen inspiration and perception, the orange-gold fighting spirit left his body and blew around the house like the wind, gathering and compressing the gray-white mist that had already spread throughout the house towards where he was.

In just a moment, the fighting spirit in his body was released as if it was free, and the gray-white mist that was originally spreading out was gathered by him. After he extracted the excess air between the mist like peeling a silkworm to draw out silk, it soon condensed to the size of an adult man's head.

"No, there's still too much air mixed in there. We need to compress it a little more."

Muttering something, he used the fighting spirit that had left his body to compress and draw out the gray-white mist in front of him that was the size of his head.

However, the subsequent high-concentration compression is an extremely energy-consuming and time-consuming task, requiring a high level of mental concentration and tremendous fighting spirit to maintain progress.

at last!

Nearly two quarters of an hour later, Liu Xi successfully compressed the grayish-white mist to the size of a fist.

"It's time to put it in a glass bottle!"

As he spoke, he used his fighting spirit to wrap a layer of the outer layer of the gray-white mist, maintaining a slight squeeze at all times to prevent the "gas" that he had gathered and compressed with great effort from spreading again.

boo~
Liu Xi put the cap back on the glass bottle and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the gas he had already put into the glass bottle.

However, just as he took a break and was about to start smoking another cigarette and repeat the gas collection process.

Suddenly.

With a "slap", he slapped himself on the back of the head!

"Fuck! How stupid! I could save a little effort and just use my fighting spirit to wrap and restrain the secondhand smoke every time I exhale it. Why should I finish smoking a whole cigarette and then gather and compress it all over the room? I don't know how much energy I can save! The only trouble is that it's a bit uncomfortable when I smoke..."
