The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 230 Can You Show Some Respect to Bifang?

"In fact, my intermediate lives were very simple. It was only after I was reborn as an adult in my second life that I realized how fragile humans are. When I was six or seven years old, I got sick, probably pneumonia or something like that. I died without any help."

"In my third life, I no longer had many memories of my past life. I was reborn as the only child of a town family. I successfully completed elementary school, middle school, and high school, and was admitted to Beijing Medical University, where I studied neurosurgery. When I was in college, I was under too much pressure from studying, and my remaining memories kept affecting me. When I was stressed, I would self-harm. The school and teachers found out, and I had to drop out and go home."

"My parents in that life were very kind to me, but the remaining memories had a great impact on me. I became a little crazy and committed suicide."

Qin Huai was shocked.

He finally understood why Luo Jun said that the monsters in the middle lives still had residual memories but would not be trapped by their previous obsessions. It was obviously the best time to resolve the obsession but the success rate was very low because monsters in this state were usually in a semi-conscious and semi-crazy state, and their mental condition was not very good.

It turns out that Gong Liang's mental state is really good.

He can eat, drink, sleep and not seek death. He is simply a normal person!

"I am now in my fourth life." Qu Jing said.

"The fourth life is the last life? Sister Hong's fifth life is the last life." Qin Huai was shocked again.

"After a spirit fails to survive the catastrophe, it is not fixed how many reincarnations it will take before it reaches its final life." Qu Jing explained, "Some, like me, only have four, while Sister Hong's five is normal. Some will last until the sixth life before it reaches its final life."

"Then what's the explanation?" Qin Huai asked, "For example, those with strong obsessions will be reincarnated less times, or it may be related to the strength of the original body's ability. Those with strong strength can be reincarnated more times."

Qu Jing shook her head: "I don't know about this, I only know that it has something to do with the speed of forgetting."

"In our first life, our essence was still spirits with all our memories. Our divine power would not disappear until we failed to survive the calamity."

"When we are in our second life, we will be real people. We will have human bodies and human lifespans, and we will experience birth, aging, sickness, and death, and feel joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. We will remember the reasons why we failed to survive the calamity, and we will remember most of the memories from our first life. We will know what we should do and how to make up for our regrets."

"In the third life, there are very few memories left. Most spirits even forget that they are spirits. Previous memories will reappear in dreams, and obsessions will linger in their hearts. They will do things more based on their feelings."

"This is also the reason why the spirits in this period are very unstable mentally. For example, the spirits in this period will think they are human, but they did not drink Meng Po soup completely. In daily life, they will occasionally recall important fragments from the past in a trance, but they don't know what these fragments represent."

"My intuition tells me that these fragments are very important to me, but I can't find any relevant information in my memory."

"If this situation continues for a long time, people will either become paranoid or be regarded as crazy by others. In more serious cases, people will go to extremes like me."

"Of course, there are a very small number of spirits who still remember that they are spirits in their third life. It is generally very difficult for such spirits to successfully overcome the tribulation, so God will give them more opportunities to resolve their obsessions."

"By the fourth life, there are very few remaining memories. It basically does not affect daily life, but the influence of obsession will be engraved in the bones, and will drive the monster to do something involuntarily."

"The fifth life is the last life for most spirits. Qin Huai, you should be very familiar with the last life, which is the situation of me and Sister Hong. Without any previous memories, the influence of obsession will still change our personality or living habits, but we are just ordinary people with some weirdness."

"Has Sister Hong ever told you that the spirits in their last life will definitely have a chance to successfully overcome their calamity. We call this the last straw given to us by God." Qu Jing asked.

Qin Huai nodded: "Sister Hong said so."

Qu Jing looked at Qin Huai: "You are my straw."

Qin Huai felt a little embarrassed by Qu Jing's serious tone, and waved his hands repeatedly to indicate that he was not, he was just a simple hacker with a system.

There is a high probability that Qu Jing has another straw, which may not have appeared yet, or it may have appeared but she has not grasped it.

After listening to Qu Jing's popular science, Qin Huai deeply felt that Qu Jing, as a little bird with no martial arts ability, had good common sense in overcoming tribulations and was much better than Chen Huihong, the plant spirit.

"I find that you know much more than Sister Hong." Qin Huai sighed.

Qu Jing smiled and said, "These are all basic common sense. The elders in the clan will teach you before you cross the tribulation."

"Sister Hong and the other plant spirits..." Qu Jing hesitated for a moment, then said directly, "The way they survive the tribulation is quite peculiar. Many of them come here to survive the tribulation without knowing what's going on. They succeed in surviving the tribulation when they are discovered and burned to death."

"So they usually don't teach anything, so it's normal for them to have no common sense."

Qin Huai:......

The reputation of the plant spirits was once again harmed.

"Since you know everything, why did you choose to become a child when you first transformed?" Qin Huai asked curiously.

Qu Jing paused, and said a little embarrassedly: "Because children have less meat."

Qin Huai:?
"The greatest benefit of our eels is not to cure amnesia, but to keep you from being hungry. Many predecessors who successfully overcame the tribulation unfortunately encountered troubled times or famines, and were caught by starving people and had their flesh cut off and eaten. It would have been fine if they were just cooked, but some predecessors were more unlucky and their magical powers were discovered, and they were used as mobile granaries and were kept and eaten, wishing to die but unable to do so."

"I'm afraid of pain, so I thought it would be better to just turn into a child, so that I can die quickly. If there is a chaotic world, I will hide in the mountains and forests, and then run out to complain when the outside world is peaceful, and then find a kind family to adopt me, and survive the disaster in peace."

"As a result... you saw what happened next."

Qin Huai didn't know what to say for a moment. After thinking for a while, he could only sigh: "It's good to have no common sense. Sister Hong dared to go out even when there was a three-year drought."

Compared with the cautious Qu Jing, Chen Huihong is truly a radical among radicals.

Qu Jing:?
Qu Jing continued to eat rice cake soup.

"I actually have another question." Qin Huai hesitated for a moment and then spoke, "Qu Jing, do you still remember the monster you met in the pastry shop in your first life?"

Qu Jing nodded: "Of course I remember, the snacks are delicious."

"I found two recipes from your memory, one of which is his. Your memory is too long, 4 years, and there are many accelerated segments in the middle. I feel that a lot of them should have been skipped. Have you seen him again later?"

"No, the second time my grandfather took me to the provincial hospital for treatment, he actually specifically looked for that cake shop, but it was closed."

"What happened to him?"

"Nothing, I'm just simply curious about how he could tell your true form at a glance. Luo Jun is Bifang, he can't even tell what your true form is."

Qu Jing swallowed the rice cake in her mouth and said, "It's normal that Mr. Luo can't see it. Although we are both birds, Bifang is too powerful. It's not good for me to say that Mr. Luo and I are of the same species."

"There are many spirits. People of different races don't know each other, but if they happen to be of the same race and have known each other before, for example, Sister Hong knew a ghost vine when she was still white, and then when she was undergoing the tribulation, she happened to encounter a ghost vine in its first life. Sister Hong would definitely be able to recognize the other party's true form at a glance."

Qin Huai understood: "So the young man's true form is most likely a bird."

"Yes." Qu Jing nodded, "He should be a spirit in his second life. I didn't recognize him at the time. It was only after he recognized me as a spirit and showed his goodwill that I reacted."

Qin Huai had asked all the questions he wanted to ask, and couldn't think of anything else to ask for a while, so he could only sit in the box and continue thinking.

Seeing that Qin Huai stopped asking questions, Qu Jing was worried that the rice cake soup would get cold if she didn't eat it, so she buried her head in the food, eating one spoonful after another.

When Qin Huai came to his senses and wanted to ask Qu Jing whether he wanted to make a video call to Chen Huihong and Luo Jun for a weird online meeting, Qu Jing had already finished a big bowl of rice cake soup.

Eat cleanly.

Qu Jing was scraping the radish slices at the bottom of the bowl with a spoon.

"Have you finished eating?!"

"It's delicious." Qu Jing said, "It's almost exactly the same as the rice cake soup that grandpa cooks, but it tastes better than grandpa's."

"I haven't had rice cake soup that tastes like this for many years. Before I woke up, I couldn't cook it at home to taste this good."

Qin Huai said that this was normal. E-level rice cake soup was indeed not something that ordinary people could cook. It was impossible to do it without some talent.

Qu Jing's cooking skills are normal. She was born in an orphanage and had to learn to work since she was young. Later, she was sponsored by Chen Huihong to study abroad. She cooked for herself and her cooking skills were not bad.

Dean Qu's cooking skills are not bad either. She can cook glutinous rice balls without revealing the filling. If Qu Jing grew up in the Sanmalu Children's Welfare Home and was called Qin Jing, she would have woken up by now because she had eaten the rice cake soup cooked by Dean Qin since she was a child.

It wasn't that Qin Huai was secretly slandering Dean Qin, it was really that Dean Qin's cooking skills were too poor. Otherwise, the welfare home wouldn't have unanimously agreed to let Qin Huai, a child, be in charge of the welfare home's noodles.

Qin Huai suddenly thought of what he was going to ask.

"What are you going to do in the future?"

Qin Huai knew that after successfully surviving the tribulation, the monster could choose to return to its original world immediately.

Their last life is as a human body. They can choose to return to their original body after the death of their body, or they can continue to stay in the human world and live out their last life.

But few spirits would choose the latter, because staying in the human world means there is instability. There is no guarantee that they will encounter something hard to give up, develop some obsession, and fail again, and then try again in vain.

People like Chen Huihong who choose to stay in the human world to accompany Chen Huihui are extremely rare.

"Of course I want to live well." Qu Jing put down the bowl, "Grandpa wants me to live well."

"He hopes that I can go to middle school, high school, and college, be healthy and happy, and live a happy life like every normal person."

"I have already exceeded my target and graduated with a PhD. All I have to do now is live a normal life."

"I want to continue living until the end of my life and continue to be a neurologist, even if I can't cure my patients."

"I didn't listen to grandpa in my first life, so I will definitely listen to him in this life."

"I believe he would be happy if this were the case."

"Even if ordinary humans don't have reincarnation, death is death."

Qin Huai smiled and said, "If Sister Hong knew, she would be very happy."
.
In fact, Chen Huihong knew it half an hour later.

Qu Jing also felt that it was necessary to make a video call to Chen Huihong and Luo Jun to report the good news. Qin Huai created a group and initiated a group video call. Chen Huihong and Luo Jun basically answered the call within seconds.

Upon learning that Qu Jing had woken up, Chen Huihong was so ecstatic that she didn't even give Qin Huai and Luo Jun a chance to speak. She kept asking questions and Qu Jing answered them word by word.

"Jingjing, it's great that you're awake. When will you come back from your study exchange? Will you come back for the Chinese New Year? I'm going to take Huihui back to my hometown to celebrate the Chinese New Year before the seventh day of the Chinese New Year. I'll be back on the eighth day. Then we'll go to Luo Jun's house to get together and have dinner."

"Tell Zhang Shumei to buy more fruits. Fruits are most abundant during the Chinese New Year. There are all kinds of fruits, including those that are out of season."

"Do you like cherries? Ask Zhang Shumei to buy more 3J ones. Huihui loves cherries the most. I'll bring some back for Huihui when the time comes."

Luo Jun finally found an opportunity to speak: "Chen Huihong, don't you know how to buy fruit? You really treat my house as a self-service fruit store. You can come and go as you please, and you don't even have to pay."

Chen Huihong was happily chatting and ignored Luo Jun, or maybe she didn't notice that Luo Jun was talking.

"I know a fruit seller. The quality of the cherries they bought during the Chinese New Year is very good, but they raised the price right after the Chinese New Year. They are so unscrupulous."

"I sent their family WeChat to Zhang Shumei."

Luo Jun in the video: …

Luo Jun tilted his head slightly, took out another phone and made a call: "Xiao Zhang, check your phone, add a WeChat friend."

Qin Huai couldn't help laughing.

"Sister Hong." Qin Huai interrupted Chen Huihong's excited plan for the Spring Festival Monster Tea Party, "Do you want me to make a batch of raw embryos in advance that can be frozen and stored for a long time and keep them with you? I have to go back to my hometown during the Spring Festival and can only come back after the Lantern Festival."

"Great, great." Chen Huihong said happily, "Xiao Qin, your cooking skills are so good that people will feel uncomfortable if they don't eat them for a few days. Now that Huang's business is so good, you can't even run errands for us. Luo Jun and I haven't had the snacks you made for many days."

Qin Huai was stunned. He didn't expect that Chen Huihong and Luo Jun were the direct victims of Huang Ji's booming business.

"This morning I asked Luo Jun if he wanted to go to Gusu with me, but he just refused to go."

Luo Jun said unhappily: "What's so good about Gusu?"

Qin Huai smiled and said, "Mr. Luo, why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll leave some raw dough for you tomorrow and ask your runner to come get it. I'll send it to Shan City and have Zhang Shumei steam it. The taste won't be much different."

"Don't worry, I'll send the tangerine peel tea with it."

This was the second time Luo Jun showed a good expression since the video call.

The first good expression he showed was when he heard that Qu Jing had woken up.

Qu Jing also smiled and said to Luo Jun: "Mr. Luo, thank you for these years."

Luo Jun raised his chin slightly: "I'm glad to know. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have gone to your crappy hospital."

"But even if you don't want to live anymore, I still recommend that you go for regular physical therapy, which is good for your health."

Luo Jun: ...

"Jingjing, Xiao Qin helped you wake up. What do you plan to give him?" Chen Huihong asked.

"Send?" Qu Jing didn't understand.

Chen Huihong talked about the gifts in the illustrated column of Qin Huai's game system.

Qu Jing suddenly realized: "What did you and Mr. Luo give me, Sister Hong?"

"I asked my brother to donate a large sum of money to Luoluo's high school and recruit Luoluo as a gifted student. When Luoluo goes to college and wants to study abroad, my brother will pay for her tuition."

"Luo Jun plans to give all his inheritance to Xiao Qin after he dies, and then ask Xiao Qin to pay him back when he is reincarnated and comes back."

Qu Jing probably understood, and without looking at her phone, she looked directly at Qin Huai.

"Although I have a good income now, with a monthly salary and bonus totaling about 3.7 yuan, and a year-end bonus at the end of the year. But most of my salary over the years has been donated. I only have 37 yuan on hand now, which is not a lot of money."

"How about this? I'll write you an IOU for 1000 million, payable in installments. It should be paid off before I die."

Qin Huai: ...?
He is just a snack maker and doesn’t want to be hung on a street lamp!

"No, no!" Qin Huai refused repeatedly.

Qu Jing is already considered very poor among the monsters. Qin Huai has a lot of inheritance waiting for him to inherit, so he doesn't care about the 1000 million that Qu Jing has not earned yet.

"Mr. Luo's inheritance is more than enough for me. How about this? Qu Jing, you have donated most of your money before. I will give you the WeChat of Director Qin of our Sanmalu Children's Welfare Institute. You can donate money to the Sanmalu Children's Welfare Institute regularly every year. It will be a gift to me."

Qin Huai: Director Qin, this is the last thing I can do for the Sanmalu Children’s Welfare Home as an outstanding graduate of the home.

"Okay." Qu Jing nodded.

"Hey, I'm not saying anything bad about you." Luo Jun's speechless voice came from the phone.

"I'm not dead yet, can you please stop assuming that I've been reincarnated?"

"Can you show some respect to Bifang?"
