I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Chapter 234 Good night, Mom. See you tomorrow.

Xie Yuan closed the door and began to practice in the room.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, feeling the air in the room bringing him waves of pressure.

This pressure is like the water flowing from the bottom of a deep lake, it is everywhere and very heavy, but it can only be felt during cultivation.

Under the heavy pressure, Xie Yuan felt that the blood and energy in his body were moving forward under the weight, and it took ten times the effort to circulate;

However, while he was actively circulating his blood and energy, the pressure from the surroundings caused his blood and energy to automatically accelerate and surge endlessly, just like practicing underwater.

After a while, the speed of blood circulation and refining became several times faster than before!
Xie Yuan felt that the blood in his body was almost boiling and roaring. If it weren't for the fact that his physical constitution had already been transformed by the Tianqing Fruit into that of a martial arts genius, his meridians would not be able to withstand this.

Fortunately, his physique was strong enough and his meridians were tough enough. After gradually adapting to the surging speed of blood and energy circulation, it was time to reap the rewards.

Xie Yuan frowned and exerted his strength, controlling the blood and energy to circulate throughout his body, extracting the essence from it, nourishing his muscles, bones, internal organs and membranes, and feeling the slow improvement.

The amount of blood and qi required to advance to the next level in the Qi and Blood Transformation Realm is extremely huge. Although Xie Yuan can only feel a tiny improvement in his practice now, it is already a huge gain compared to the slow accumulation in the past!
If one practices in this environment for a few days or ten days, one's realm will have a visible improvement.
And if it takes half a month or a month, then you can definitely cross the small nodes within the realm.

Xie Yuan's current cultivation level is probably only in the early stage of the second level of Qi and Blood Transformation.

If there were no natural resources and treasures of the right level to assist him, it would take at least two more years for him to break through to the third level of Qi and Blood at his speed under normal accumulation.

Compared with others, this is already a very fast speed. After all, the third level of qi and blood transformation is the normal limit of human qi and blood transformation. People who are not talented enough cannot even reach this threshold. Even many people who are called geniuses need five years, ten years or even longer to accumulate.

Reaching the third level of transformation in two to three years is an extremely fast speed that ordinary practitioners can hardly imagine and can only dream of; but if you practice here, it won’t even take that long, and the speed can be greatly improved.

Xie Yuan felt the continuous improvement of his cultivation. After sitting cross-legged for a long time to circulate his blood and energy, he stood on the bed and began to practice Arhat Posture.

There wasn't much floor space in the small bedroom, so he might as well stand on the bed. With his balance ability, that wouldn't be a problem anyway.

The ceiling of this room is not high enough. I’m a little afraid of hitting the ceiling when I stand there... This house is still too small and too old.

Fortunately, the Arhat Posture is a static posture. Although an open space is better, the space requirements are not that great.

Xie Yuan stood on the bed, either standing on one leg or in a half-horse stance, controlling the blood and energy to flow through the corresponding body parts in a unique path, exercising his entire body step by step.

After practicing it once.

Xie Yuan blinked and called up the panel for the second time.

[Golden Bell Cover·Fifth Level: (1457/10000)]

Looking at the progress number of the Golden Bell Cover after this round, it has increased by nearly fifty points compared to before.

Just one time was equivalent to the work of the past few days. Xie Yuan slowly exhaled.

"This must be a real improvement in my cultivation. Others would deceive me, but I can't do the panel and math, because if I can't do math, I can't do it, but the panel is my dear... cough.

“If the panel and the math won’t fool me, then the numbers on the panel won’t fool me either.”

Xie Yuan had an inexplicable feeling that the panel would not be affected by illusions.

This shows one’s progress, which is real progress, even if one is practicing in an illusion.

Next, Xie Yuan practiced the Yunshan Sword Sutra and the Health-preserving Exercises in turn, and then performed a set of Bagua Shanhan Fist.

The progress of the internal energy cultivation method was equally astonishing. Originally, the cultivation of internal breath was very slow. However, Xie Yuan's Sword Intent Sutra, which had already matched his realm, progressed as fast as his blood energy. After charging the Sword Intent Sutra, his health-preserving skills at a lower level were practiced even faster. The progress was simply not like that of internal energy. For a time, Xie Yuan was afraid that he was going to go astray, so he stopped several times to make sure that there was no danger before continuing to practice.

He felt as if he had absorbed nutrients, energy and spiritual energy from the illusory mysterious water. The mysterious water environment at the bottom of the lake was almost the same as that of a paradise on earth. This supported such rapid cultivation and did not make Xie Yuan feel the emptiness of blood and essence in his body.

There is no need to make up for it by eating more, as there is no surplus food at home...Xie Yuan is still considering household expenses.

Under the heavy pressure of the mysterious water, the fighting method has also improved greatly. Although it is not as exaggerated as the training method, it is obviously not at the same level as on land. It's a pity that I don't have a sword in my hand, so I can't practice the Yunlong Nine Styles that I am currently majoring in. I can only practice boxing to see if it works. I have to keep it in the small room.

He practiced behind closed doors from noon to night. During this time, Wang Yafang knocked on the door twice, somewhat worried, but each time she heard Xie Yuan's strong voice replying that everything was alright.

Considering her son's age, she didn't bother him too much.

After a day, Xie Yuan confirmed that he could practice here, and the effect was surprisingly good. He felt satisfied after practicing, but also had mixed feelings.

He had no intention of practicing here at all and just wanted to immerse himself in the normal life of the past.

But perhaps that was too weak. Reality, even the reality in the illusion, was forcing him to wake up.

I am no longer the person I used to be.

However, it’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Xie Yuan looked at the golden light in his hand and clenched his fist.

After a day of practice, I felt that my body was easily awakened and I had completely recovered to my original state.

He stood in front of the dressing mirror, watching his figure flickering in and out of focus, and let out a long breath.

When he opened the door, he saw that Wang Yafang had already prepared a table full of dinner, including chicken soup, spare ribs, etc. Xie Yuan couldn't help but say:

"Mom, I don't really need supplements, let's save some money. Besides, chicken soup is full of purine and fat, so it's not necessarily very nutritious."

"What do you know, kid? Drink it while it's hot!"

Wang Yafang said a scolding word and placed the chicken soup in front of Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan had no choice but to drink it in big gulps under her gaze.

"Drink slowly! Don't burn yourself."

Wang Yafang asked Xie Yuan to slow down again.

Xie Yuan put down the soup bowl and looked at Wang Yafang's face which was full of satisfaction. There were already many fine lines on her face, and her hair was even a little gray for a woman less than fifty years old.

My mother used to love to look beautiful and dress up, but this time when I woke up, I didn’t see her put on any makeup. At most, she simply combed her hair.

People really look at least five years older than before.

If it weren't for this incident, it wouldn't be like this...

Xie Yuan felt a little uncomfortable and ate his dinner in silence. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind and he paused with his chopsticks.

"What's wrong? Not to your liking? Did you add too much salt? Hey, I haven't been cooking much lately, so I'm trying to get back on track..."

Wang Yafang asked nervously.

Xie Yuan shook his head:
"No! It's delicious, I love it! Mom, after dinner, let's go for a walk."

"Ah? You're not going to Wang Yibing's place today?"

"He has something to do today, so we'll go tomorrow. We'll go downstairs later and I'll teach you how to box."

"what?"

After dinner, Xie Yuan took the initiative to take over all the cleaning work. After finishing it quickly, he took Wang Yafang downstairs.

There are basically no yards in old residential areas, parking spaces are tight, and cars are parked randomly, making it extremely crowded.

But there is at least an open space where many elderly people gather.

Xie Yuan and Wang Yafang stood up and said with a smile:
"Mom, this is the health exercise I learned at school. It was taught by a health expert. It is definitely useful. You can practice it with me."

"……All right."

Wang Yafang is not in a good mood now. She was not in the mood to do so, but since her son said so, she didn't want to spoil his fun.

Xie Yuan simplified the first two moves of the health-preserving exercise and demonstrated them to his mother, then he slowly broke down the movements and asked her to follow.

"So this is how the simplified exercises work..."

Xie Yuan thought silently.

Although it is a simplification by himself, he has practiced health-preserving exercises for a long time, and the core is still accessible. The effect is not as good as the original, but it definitely has a health-preserving effect and is not harmful.

Wang Yafang has basically no exercise habits, and she is crooked even when doing the extremely simplified health-preserving exercises.

But with Xie Yuan, a master, correcting him, this was not a problem. The purpose of health-preserving exercises was to lay the foundation for the beginning warriors, not to mention the simplified version, which could be practiced by the elderly.

So Wang Yafang got back on track as she continued practicing. It seemed as if a warm current was flowing through her body, and she felt a little better.

She looked surprised:
"Son, your punches are really useful!"

"Of course. Apply it twice a day, morning and night, and I guarantee your hair will become darker and your wrinkles will be reduced."

Xie Yuan smiled.

Just as he was eating, he suddenly had an idea: since he could practice here, could his parents do it too?
After Wang Yafang tried it once, she found some effects on her body. But Xie Yuan was not sure whether it was the effect of exercise or the special effect of health-preserving exercises. He could only wait and see.

But no matter what, it's a good thing to get moving.

Xie Yuan felt relieved when he saw his mother listening to what he said and starting to play again with great interest.

After all, most people will be proactive when there are obvious gains.

To some extent, this is the greatest effect of my panel.

The old man and old woman on the side looked at the mother and son and whispered to each other.

When Xie Yuan's ears moved, he heard words like "loan shark", "gangster", and "sheriff".

He pursed his lips, and seeing that many people were on guard and cautious, keeping their distance, he shook his head.

"This punch is quite interesting..."

In addition to the gossip, there were also one or two old men commenting. Xie Yuan didn't think much of it at first, but suddenly he had another thought.

He deliberately approached the two old men who seemed interested and practiced slowly by himself.

He caught a glimpse of them sitting under a tree and secretly following their gestures. Xie Yuan smiled slightly, turned around, and bowed, saying:

"Uncle, do you guys practice boxing?"

"Ah? Oh, practice, do Tai Chi, Ba Duan Jin or something like that."

The old man was a little surprised and replied casually.

"Uncle, this is a new style of boxing that I learned in college. It's very effective for strengthening the body. Do you want to practice with me?"

"No practice! No need."

Both uncles said decisively.

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect them to be so resolute. After a moment's reaction, he smiled and said:

"I don't charge for this... and this is taught by an Olympic champion. My college PE teacher is an Olympic champion. This boxing technique is the essence of ancient martial arts and it really works. Anyway, I taught my mom how to exercise. If you want to practice, you can practice next to me and I'll teach you."

The Olympics just ended this year, and the Olympic champions were still very convincing. The two old men were obviously stunned for a moment.

As for Xie Yuan’s teacher at university…there was indeed an Olympic champion, but Xie Yuan had never attended that teacher’s class.

But this boxing technique is not worse than the one taught by the Olympic champion.

After Xie Yuan finished speaking, he walked back to Wang Yafang and taught her how to practice boxing.

The two uncles looked at each other, hesitated, and one of them said:

"It's okay anyway, why not give it a try?"

"Go ahead, let me take a look first."

Another one encouraged.

So the first old man walked up to Xie Yuan, looking a little embarrassed, and followed him to practice with restrained hands and feet.

Seeing this, Xie Yuan smiled secretly.

As long as one person comes, there is no way to escape.

He enthusiastically guided the old man from beginning to end, while assessing his physical condition. With his eyesight, he could tell that this man loved to exercise and would have no problem with training.

The old man practiced it haltingly and felt some effect just like Wang Yafang. His body felt slightly warm and he immediately became interested.

The old man sitting under the tree watched for a while, and couldn't help but follow, so Xie Yuan had another student.

After practicing twice, seeing that Wang Yafang and the two uncles were slightly out of breath, but all had ruddy complexions and looked energetic, Xie Yuan smiled and said:
"Uncle, how do you feel?"

"Good! Good! Your boxing skills are indeed useful. You are worthy of being taught by an Olympic champion!"

An old man gave Xie Yuan a thumbs-up and kept shaking it.

"It really works. I haven't felt so energetic in a long time!"

said another.

His voice was full of energy, and the old men and women who had been secretly watching from the surrounding area heard it. They looked at each other and whispered to each other.

When Xie Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but give the two old men a thumbs up. They were so cooperative, just like he had hired them.

He knew that his goal had been achieved, so he said:

"That's good. I will come downstairs to practice boxing in the mornings. If you want to practice together, you can come. It's the same whether you practice alone or with a group. I will teach you for free."

He said this loudly on purpose, then went upstairs with Wang Yafang to go home.

After the two men left, the two uncles at the back were still discussing enthusiastically, while the uncles and aunts next to them gathered around and started asking questions.

From the window upstairs, Xie Yuan saw this scene, smiled slightly, and looked away.

Wang Yafang was a little excited:
"Son, your punch is really useful. I feel much better now. And the masters in your academy, they..."

"As long as it's useful, I'll teach Dad later. As for teaching them, haha, teach them so they don't want to kick us out every day."

Xie Yuan smiled.

Although the neighbors might not be able to do anything to them, Wang Yafang always looked nervous when she went out to buy groceries every day. Xie Yuan probably had to deal with a lot of attention because of Boss Tian's visit, so he thought of a way.

"It's not that they want to chase us away, it's really us who are influencing them... Hey, son, you've grown up."

Seeing Wang Yafang's rosy face and repeated nodding, Xie Yuan felt that his son was capable of handling things. He breathed a sigh of relief and put his mind at ease.

The next morning, Xie Yuan took his mother downstairs to practice boxing again, and found that two more old men and women had quietly joined them.

Xie Yuan remained calm and treated everyone equally, teaching everyone seriously.

Most elderly people have practiced popular exercises such as Ba Duan Jin and Tai Chi. Although they are effective, they are obviously not as good as this real practice that comes from the world of cultivation.

After just one try, the old men and women were impressed by the effect of his simplified health-preserving exercise, and they praised him again and again.

Xie Yuan is not an Olympic champion, but he teaches much better than an Olympic champion. It is impossible for these elderly people to develop inner breath if they persist in practicing, but it is not a problem to extend their lifespan by an average of five years.

My mother also has the special training he opened. If she keeps practicing from now on, it will not be a dream to live to be 100 years old without any illness or disaster.

But I probably won’t be able to see it…

Looking at those people around who are eager to try, as well as the aunties from the neighborhood committee, there should be more people tomorrow.

After a while, Wang Yafang will be Coach Xie’s mother and should be able to walk around the community with her head held high.

If this goes on by next month, if Boss Tian dares to come again, I don’t need to show up myself, the uncles and aunts will make him pay for it.

The loan sharks who act according to the law still have to rely on the T1 grandpas and grandmas to deal with them... and this community is an old employee building in the city center, and many of the grandpas and grandmas' children now work in government departments. If you really encounter one or two of them in the shoveling, the loan company may not even need to operate.

Xie Yuan let out a breath and felt a lot more relieved.

After having lunch with Wang Yafang, who looked visibly better today, he was taken home by Wang Yibing in the afternoon.

In the e-sports room, Xie Yuan asked:
"How to say?"

Wang Yibing shook his head with a serious expression:
"Let's try it first."

Turn on live broadcast.

As usual, Xie Yuan displayed operations beyond human limits, and today's condition was even much better than before, which still stunned Wang Yibing and the audience.

To be honest, with Xie Yuan's current reaction speed and physical ability, there is not much difference between playing games with upper limits and top-level AI. In fact, his expressiveness is even more gorgeous because he really knows how to play.

However, today's popularity is less than half of before.

Even though there are still a lot of comments and viewers, the popularity just can’t be increased, and no one can be found on the homepage.

After the broadcast.

Xie Yuan and Wang Yibing held a small meeting in the room.

Wang Yibing sighed:
"really……"

"Did Big Brother do this?"

"Of course. This is to force us to agree. And today is just a trial run..."

"Is it."

the next day.

Wang Yibing found with a grim expression that the popularity of the live broadcast room had dropped by half again, and now they were not even on the homepage of the category list.

Not only that, there are obviously more abusive comments today, such as "vegetable idiot", "what an ugly and disgusting thing, how come you didn't fall to death", "idiot anchor and liar, the whole family should die", etc. The barrage of comments with no bottom line kept flooding the screen, and it was impossible to block them.

Obviously, they are all water armies from Big Brother Dabi.

There is no limit to the level of barrage, the insults can be more nasty than anything else. Wang Yibing kept banning people with an ugly face, but it was useless.

Originally, he was an anchor with tens of thousands of fans. He had seen a lot of insults and had a very positive attitude. However, the foul language flooding his screen now outnumbered all the comments during his peak period, and many of them were direct attacks on Xie Yuan, which made him a little unbearable.

After seeing a barrage of comments like “Fall to death, fall to death, fall to death xn”, Wang Yibing finally broke down and yelled with a red face:
"You fucking idiot, your whole family will fall off the building and die tomorrow!"

"Host Hong Wen, hahahaha"

"The stupid anchor trolled netizens, so I unfollowed him"

"Quality anchor, everyone report it"

The comments started a new round of screen swiping, and many fans saw the clues and asked:

"Is there a troll army here to hack us?"

However, the comments from normal people became extremely few in comparison. Moreover, in such an environment, coupled with Wang Yibing's misconduct just now, many normal netizens impatiently closed the live broadcast room, and the popularity dropped rapidly.

After a while, a message even popped up on the screen: "Because the anchor violated the platform regulations, the live broadcast room has been closed for 24 hours."

The live broadcast room was forcibly closed.

Wang Yibing took a few deep breaths, then slammed the table hard with a thud:

"Too deceiving!"

Xie Yuan silently poured a glass of water for Wang Yibing, patted him on the back, and asked him to take a breath.

Wang Yibing drank the water in one gulp, put the cup down heavily, wiped his mouth, and then said in a strange tone:

"Xie Yuan, aren't you angry?"

"I am a vegetable. I cannot get angry."

Xie Yuan said calmly.

“…You are indeed a genius at live streaming.”

It’s not that Xie Yuan wasn’t angry, but after figuring out the essence of the matter a few days ago, he had already expected it.

There was no point in getting angry, and compared to what he had seen before, this place was at least much more civilized.

Literary fighting is a gentle knife, but a gentle knife will never see real blood.

Wang Yibing was about to say something else when his cell phone suddenly vibrated.

He picked it up and saw it was an unfamiliar number. He frowned and continued, "Who? I don't want a loan... Big bro?!"

He sat up straight, his face became serious, and his tone became much more polite:

"Yes... um, I'm thinking about it. Today..."

Wang Yibing frowned tightly and heard the exaggerated voice coming from the other side:
"It has nothing to do with me today. I have too many anchors under me and I can't manage them all. Just come and work with me. I promise to make you the best in your category! You can switch to selling products later and make money like water! What else do you want to consider?"

It has nothing to do with him? The phone came as soon as the live broadcast was turned off...

Wang Yibing pursed his lips:
"Brother Dabi, I want to get along with you. But I heard that your brother-in-law said that we will not get any traffic if we go there. He is in the same race as us, right? Will Brother Dabi really sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice?"

"..."

There was silence for a while, then he smiled softly:
"Children don't know how to talk nonsense. You should think about it carefully in the next two days. The conditions will be favorable. But if you wait any longer... My time is very valuable, and my patience is not so good."

"Beep beep..."

After the call ended, Wang Yibing slowly put the phone down.

Xie Yuan shook his head:
"I heard everything. How arrogant."

"He has always been very arrogant and has done a lot of things like showing off his wealth. He only became more restrained after the relevant departments warned him against it, but it was useless. He is a major taxpayer in the city. His dog even live-streams eating Wagyu beef every day, and he even opened a special account with more than 10 million followers."

“Dogs have more than 10 million fans?”

Xie Yuan was really surprised:
"You are worse than a dog?"

"...Did you wake up and not brush your teeth? He has more than 50 million followers on his main account, and that's how many followers he can get just by posting some posts."

Wang Yibing said helplessly:

"The arm cannot twist the thigh..."

Xie Yuan nodded silently and suddenly said:

"Why don't you just give in to him? We are so popular, he should at least leave us some, right? There is no need for him to be so hard on money."

"Follow him, what you said..."

Wang Yibing shook his head:

“There was a streamer who was in a similar situation to us before, and he was also very popular, but after he was taken over, no one can see him anymore, and he doesn’t have as many fans as I did before.

“I’ve researched this over the past two days. Big Brother Bi has too many anchors under him. Although we are very popular, the money we earn is nothing to him.

"He doesn't want money, he wants monopoly and status. As long as he has the market, he doesn't care about this little money. Especially since we just happen to be on the same track as his brother-in-law, and his affairs with his wife are a mess... Anyway, if we go there, we will probably be finished."

After hearing this, Xie Yuan fell silent. He didn't know this market as well as Wang Yibing, and he didn't expect it to be like this.

He moved his fingers, but still shook his head:
"So, brother soldier, what do you say we should do?"

Wang Yibing didn't say anything. He kept flipping through the backstage for a long time and suddenly let out a breath.

"I checked, and there are quite a few gifts today. The number will definitely decrease every day from now on, but if we add the previous ones together, we can collect about 500,000 after a month of broadcasting! It's enough for you to pay off the loan shark.

"Let's just rub it like this for now. Even a mosquito leg is still meat..."

Xie Yuan nodded, hoping that things would go so smoothly.

Wang Yibing even ran to the Buddha statue in his living room, clasped his hands together, and chanted:
“May the Buddha bless me to have a smooth live broadcast…”

Looking at the cyber Buddha statue with flashing neon tubes inside, Xie Yuan was speechless.

This should be the Buddha that the anchors should worship...but when did this kid start worshiping Buddha?

"You hired him specifically to ensure your live broadcast goes smoothly?"

"Yeah, cool right?"

Wang Yibing smiled and said:
"I'm also planning to ask for a Guan Gong and go to church to pray at the weekend. Anyway, I've prayed to so many gods, there's always one that can bless me."

"...If you are so ungodly, I'm afraid no one will pick you up."

Day three.

After the live broadcast room was opened, in addition to the low popularity and a large number of abusive internet troops, there was also the Oatmeal Brother.

Brother Mai Pian is constantly browsing pornographic websites and WeChat.

Wang Yibing was unable to block the comments, but having learned from the lessons of the previous two days, he did not dare to talk back to the comments.

after awhile.

"Because the anchor violated the platform regulations, the live broadcast room was closed for 48 hours."

"Where the hell did I break the rules?"

Wang Yibing pounded the table and was so angry that he directly contacted the super administrator, and the reason he gave was that there were too many Cereal Brothers and it was a bad influence.

"What does Mai Pian Ge Duo have to do with us? It's the platform's own poor management, not me selling the movies!"

There is no point in appealing because this is a blatant attack on you.

Wang Yibing and Xie Yuan looked at each other and were completely discouraged:

"Come on, admit it, the arm cannot twist the thigh."

Xie Yuan nodded.

Wang Yibing dialed the number from the day before yesterday and heard a smile and a boastful voice coming from the other end:

"Which one?"

Pack……

Wang Yibing suppressed his anger:

"Brother Big Bitch, it's me, Xiaobing. My online name is Shao Nian A Bing."

"Oh, you, what's the matter?"

"About that live broadcast..."

"Wait, I'm busy, call me back in an hour...beep beep."

Hearing the busy tone on the other end, Xie Yuan's face turned a little grim.

Wang Yibing had a gloomy face. He waited for an hour and called again, but found that the call was not going through.

"Grass!"

Another hour later, Wang Yibing tried calling twice more and finally got through:
"Big brother! I'm a soldier, are you busy?"

"Go ahead."

A lazy voice came.

"I'm still willing to join your company..."

Wang Yibing said a lot of things in a very sincere manner.

Big Brother smiled softly:
"What did I tell you two days ago?"

"what?"

Wang Yibing didn't understand what he meant.

"I said I'm very busy and my patience is average. The conditions may not be so good in two days. Remember?"

Big Brother said softly.

Wang Yibing was a little nervous:
"Do you mean you don't want to collect it?"

"Of course I will accept it! Since you are so sincere. But the conditions will be changed. 90% of the gifts and live broadcast revenue will belong to the company. As for the streaming, there will be some, but we have to wait."

Wang Yibing's forehead was throbbing with veins, and he took a deep breath:

"As long as we join your company, can our live broadcast room be restored?"

"Regarding the streaming, wait a minute, don't you understand what I'm saying?"

"……I agree."

Wang Yibing was silent for a moment, but finally agreed.

If you don’t agree, it will be zero. If you agree, even if you don’t know how much, at least it’s still there.

"Oh, maybe I didn't make it clear. This 90% includes all your shares when you settle next month, which also includes the gifts you received a few days ago."

There was undisguised laughter coming from the other side.

Wang Yibing was stunned, his voice trembling:

"Brother Dabi, those were all broadcast by us before, they have nothing to do with your company, right?"

"How can you talk like that? You stole our traffic! But we're a family from now on, so let's not talk about this. Just treat this as a token of our loyalty. I'll let bygones be bygones."

"……let me consider it."

Wang Yibing put down the phone and cursed:

"Fuck! Stupid thing."

Xie Yuan patted Wang Yibing on the shoulder:

"What do you want to do next?"

Wang Yibing felt that this question was a bit strange, but he didn't think much about it. He just silently flipped through the background statistics, took a look, and made up his mind:
"I'll die if I agree, and I'll die if I don't agree. At worst, I won't want this guy anymore! When the settlement is next month, these gifts will be worth more than 100,000 yuan. I'll take them all out, and you can take them and relieve a lot of pressure!"

"But this is a career you have worked so hard to build..."

Xie Yuan said in a deep voice.

Wang Yibing shook his head:

"It doesn't matter. It's already like this. At worst, I can just work as a delivery boy. I won't starve to death. Damn, I'm just asking if I can raise the issue now..."

He immediately contacted the backstage and the super administrator, then stared at the screen in a daze.

"The platform has detected that your recent live broadcast may be suspected of violating regulations. The gifts may be confiscated. We are verifying it. Please wait."

"Brother Super, please don't scare me. Where did I violate the rules?"

The super administrator stopped typing and sent me a screenshot of the chat.

"Big Brother: This guy scolded me for not turning off the microphone. He did it on purpose. Don't give him a single cent."

Then the super administrator typed another sentence.

Super Admin: It is against the rules to offend Brother B.

This sentence flashed for a moment and was withdrawn by the super administrator.

Xie Yuan and Wang Yibing were completely silent.

"Is it illegal?"

Xie Yuan said softly.

Wang Yibing smiled bitterly:
"Yes, but how can we have the energy and time to sue Kuaishou's legal department? Can we win?"

Xie Yuan said inexplicably:
"This big guy is really domineering. I think he's a village bully."

"Who said it wasn't? His internet celebrity dog ​​was not on a leash during a live broadcast and bit a little girl in the neighborhood, causing serious injuries. It caused a big commotion at the time... but he managed to tame her. The housing prices in their neighborhood are over 100,000 yuan per square meter. What kind of people live there? They can't beat him anyway. I heard that his dog is never on a leash, and it has bitten many people by taking advantage of the power of others. It has long violated the regulations on dog ownership and is useless."

"Oh, what neighborhood does he live in? It's so expensive."

"What nonsense! It's Dijiang Qiushui, the most expensive in the city. His apartment is the most expensive among the most expensive apartments, the price per unit is tens of millions, almost 100 million..."

Xie Yuan nodded and patted his shoulder:

"understood."

"You know nothing, why are you planning to buy it?"

Wang Yibing said with a squint.

But he was in a bad mood and was very depressed:
"Let's go. I can't broadcast it anymore. I'll take you home first. If there's really no other way, I'll just have to give in to him. It's still a bit of a loss... Oh, my butt is in danger."

Before leaving, Wang Yibing went to the flashing nightclub-style Buddha statue and bowed, muttering to himself:
"Please God bless me so that I can get all the money..."

However, the Buddha statue remained silent, alternating between light and dark, with the corners of its grinning mouth seeming to be mocking the people beneath it.

The two sat in the car, both silent.

Xie Yuan opened the car window, put his hand on the window sill, and looked at the city in the night.

The neon light was hazy in his eyes, like an illusory reflection.

"Yuanzi, what are you thinking about?"

Wang Yibing looked to the right and asked with some concern.

Xie Yuan turned around and shook his head:

"fine."

Wang Yibing sighed:
"Don't worry, if this way doesn't work, I will help you. Five hundred thousand is not a big deal. You are in good physical condition now. At most, we can wear the yellow robe and pay off the debt in a few years, right? It's hard to get rich, but it's not hard to make a little money."

"You guys, it seems like you want to shoulder the debt with me. I still owe you 73,960.52 yuan. Damn, 50 cents is fine, but you also transferred 2 cents? You didn't starve yourself for two days, did you?"

"Don't worry about my money. I'm going to burn it for you."

Wang Yibing shook his head:

"If it's really difficult, I will pay it back with you. We two young men have hands and feet, and we can pay it back by moving bricks. But don't look at me like that. These past two days I've always felt like you were leaving this world... Yuanzi, you're my only brother. What will Dad do if you're gone?"

Xie Yuan looked at him and shouted half-truthfully, feeling somewhat helpless:
"You're making me not want to leave anymore..."

"What, are you really so upset?"

Wang Yibing glared.

"But it's not a solution to continue like this."

Xie Yuan muttered to himself in a low voice so that Wang Yibing could not hear him.

"Don't worry, I won't die. I finally survived."

Wang Yibing breathed a sigh of relief:
"That's pretty much it."

Arriving downstairs of Xie Yuan's house, Wang Yibing watched him get out of the car and said:
"Don't think too much when you get home. Take a hot bath and reward yourself. You'll sleep well. But your house is small, so remember to wear headphones."

"Get out of here."

Xie Yuan scolded with a smile.

"Hahaha--"

Wang Yibing stepped on the accelerator and left. Xie Yuan watched his green-plate car go away and looked at the neon lights in the city center.

This place is not far from the city center. Past a dark old community that was rumored to be demolished for ten years but was never demolished is the CBD skyscrapers with bright lights reaching into the sky.

Even at the entrance of this neighborhood where the street lights are in disrepair, you can still see the colorful scene over there.

It rained during the day and the road was still a little wet.

The clouds in the sky had not yet dispersed, so the moon and stars could not be seen, and the night sky seemed dark.

Xie Yuan stood here for a long time. The cars coming and going with their dazzling lights approached and went away, and the whistling sounds were just passing by.

The night is a bit lonely.

Xie Yuan suddenly took a step forward, but not towards the community.

The streets were lined with closed shops. The dim street lights mixed with the lights of the cars reflected shadows on the shop windows.

Xie Yuan's shadow kept flickering on one glass door after another, accelerating, sometimes brighter and sometimes darker, following the rhythm of the passing cars.

Then, Xie Yuan walked into a dead corner under an awning, but the shadow never came out again.

The wet sidewalks were empty after the rain.

Tianyin Technique is a powerful weapon that has helped Xie Yuan defeat powerful enemies many times.

Its power lies in the fact that it not only changes the light on the caster, but also distorts the surrounding air and blocks the opponent's perception.

In other words, the source, path and terminal have all been shielded.

That's why Xie Yuan was able to sneak in front of the Grandmaster with a strength far less than that of a Grandmaster.

This also means that although the camera has no perception, the Sky Hidden Technique, which distorts the practitioner's own and ambient light, is still applicable to modern equipment.

And it is very easy to use.

Xie Yuan has conducted experiments many times using his cell phone camera and came to this conclusion.

However, Xie Yuan originally did not want to use these means.

Every world has its own rules, and Xie Yuan just wants to live a good life here with his identity, whether it's long or short.

If you use other means, it always feels like cheating;
And if you cheat, it will seem... even less real.

Xie Yuan was fascinated by the immersive experience in this dream.

Even though the cottage seemed very strange at first, it gave him the feeling of home;

Even if friends seem far away when we meet again, we are still the same.

He didn't want to burst this colorful bubble and was always reluctant to let it go.

But someone forced him to do so, and someone reminded him that it was the same everywhere.

The familiar scene kept reminding him of some past events, and the instinctive thoughts that came to his mind made him feel out of place here.

But this is who he is now, the real him.

So in order to have no regrets at the end of the dream.

Xie Yuan had no choice but to go back to being the person who didn't belong here.

He picked up his phone, edited a message and sent it.

Then he looked up at the neon lights and skyscrapers in the distance and blended himself into the hustle and bustle of the city.

Xie family.

Wang Yafang was lying on the sofa watching TV absentmindedly when her cell phone suddenly vibrated.

She subconsciously picked it up and saw that it was a message from her son. She immediately perked up a little and clicked it to take a look.

"son:
"I'm not going home tonight. I'm staying at Wang Yibing's house. You guys should go to bed early.

"Goodnight mom, see you tomorrow."
