Chapter 1018 Similarity (Part 1)
Flowers bloom and fade, and the whole year comes to an end in the blink of an eye.
In a city with endless crowds of people, subways, and busy traffic, high-rise buildings, and wall calendars were torn to the last page during the busy work.
December in Beijing is coming to an end.
During this period, some people are looking forward to the leisurely New Year's Day holiday, and some are looking forward to a date under the snow on Christmas Day.
And some people...
In order to pass the exam that was suddenly brought forward, I was busy cramming from morning till night.
It snowed yesterday, and what was once a sea of flowers turned into a snowfield. Sitting on the outdoor balcony, it was incredible that I didn’t feel any cold.
"It looks like you've been working very hard. Did the exam go well?"
When he heard the elder in front of him mention this with a gentle smile, Fangran looked like he really didn't want to remember it, and he had a headache and sighed helplessly:
"I finally managed to get through it. It felt like I had several books crammed into my head..."
I have been up early and late at night these past few days, even shortening my time to exercise my abilities in the evening. I have been working hard to answer questions and memorize knowledge points.
He finally passed the five subjects successfully, leaving only the last exam tomorrow afternoon.
"If you are unwilling to learn, why don't you just use your ability to see other people's answers?"
Wearing a shawl and covering her knees with a blanket, she looked very much like an elder, but Shui Linlang's smile and words didn't sound like what an elder should say at all.
"Isn't this easy for you?"
"It will be very miserable if it is discovered..."
While complaining in his mind, "Grandma Shui, can you please stop asking questions knowingly?" Fangran's brows were twitching as he thought about Meng Lang, who went to the examination room for every exam to monitor whether he was using his ability to cheat.
Brother, just wait for me...
"But although it is indeed troublesome, how can I put it...it feels good,"
After writing down the fact that he was full in his notebook, Fangran picked up the warm tea and looked at Shui Linlang who scratched her cheek with her fingertips and smiled softly:
"When I took the exam before, I always thought it would be great if I had superpowers, but now that I have the ability, I feel that it would be better to pass the exam through my own efforts."
Looking at the smile on his face at this moment, it seems that I can feel his growth.
All the joking in his expression turned into the gentleness of an elder. Shui Linlang looked at him and muttered to himself, not knowing whether it was pleasure or something else.
"Is it..."
Then thinking about the midnight experience that Fangran explained to herself just now, she said with some surprise:
"It's not enough. I didn't expect that even the instructor was at midnight."
"Yes, when I saw the mentor appear, I even doubted whether I had seen it wrong,"
Hearing what she said, Fangran also had the same feeling, but he felt that the biggest reason was the issue of painting style. Schmidt, a pioneer in the field of scientific research, at midnight,
Being out of place is like a science madman breaking into a fantasy world.
"Suddenly, I talked to Senior Tiangong about recasting the mecha, and then I was arrested and worked as an assembly line parts processor for a month."
Regarding Fangran's little complaint, Shui Linlang smiled particularly happily and asked:
"Hehehe,
Does Senior Tiangong take good care of you? "
Yes, you can’t take care of me any more, and you wake me up every morning...
Fangran felt ashamed silently in his heart when he mentioned the burly old man in civilian clothes.
Looking at the gorgeous female figure that has been deposited by the years in front of me, talking to my elders about another elder who is an elder's elder,
Hey, why is this sentence so convoluted...
Anyway, listening to her talk about Tiangong, I suddenly had a strange feeling.
But in front of Shui Linlang, in front of the elders whom he was familiar with and close to, he finally didn't have to feel restrained and could ask all the curiosity in his heart.
"Grandma Shui, you should be familiar with the seniors of the Night Watch, right?"
Thinking about the scene he had glimpsed from someone's memory, Fangran looked at Shui Linlang and asked, while Shui Linlang replied quietly and quietly:
"Yeah, after all, to me, those are the people who watched me grow up."
Speaking of this, she suddenly looked at Fangran and smiled again.
"For example, although Uncle Tiangong looks fierce, if you want anything, just be coquettish and he will get it for you."
While watching Shui Linlang say this, she took out a foldable and stowable mechanical umbrella, and then shot out a few silver rays.
While she felt awkward saying such coquettish words to someone who was already a grandmother, Fangran was silently ashamed in her heart.
No... only you, Grandma Shui, can use this method, right?
Why do I only have the premonition of being beaten hard by Senior Tiangong...
"In addition to Senior Tiangong, Senior Qianmian, and the seniors who came from the capital that time, what kind of people are the other senior Night Watchmen?"
Not to mention the outside world, even Li Ze, who was the night watchman, didn't know the question. After thinking about it, Fangran felt that only Shui Linlang could answer him.
"Didn't you see it?"
Hearing Fangran ask this, Shui Linlang asked with some strange curiosity.
"No, apart from the two seniors Tiangong and Qianmian, I have only met a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old,"
A girl of seventeen or eighteen years old...
When she heard Fang Ran say this description, Shui Linlang had a subtle expression as if she thought of something immediately.
He didn't notice this at all, didn't notice that he didn't remember the girl's appearance at all, and didn't feel weird at all. Fangran continued to talk to himself:
"The seniors I saw in the illusion were all figures whose faces could not be seen clearly..."
Listening to Fang Ran adding such details, Shui Linlang's eyes were strangely dumb for a moment. She didn't know whether she should tell him or not.
There are no rules for ‘opponents’ in Midnight Fantasy...
"ah!"
Then I laughed helplessly in my heart. How free are those ‘elders’ to do such a trick?
Shui Linlang heard Fangran suddenly shouting as if he remembered something.
"What's wrong? Did you remember something important?"
"No, I just suddenly remembered that among those phantoms, there was a senior who I had only seen in real life. He was that, that silver-haired, extremely young, who could play the erhu, and was ridiculously strong in the phantom..."
While speaking, he suddenly remembered the figure who led him the way, because the shock and awe he felt after seeing the immortal was too strong.
Fangran forgot for a moment that that figure was clearly the strongest figure he had ever seen.
The strongest night watchman.
Shui Linlang laughed a little at his words that he had obviously forgotten and kept replaying the key impressions in his mind, and then answered clearly:
"Ah...you mean Senior Zhulong."
Candle... dragon?
Fangran was a little startled when he heard the name, and then instinctively asked what was his first reaction:
"Is this the senior's... name?"
The sword in the fantasy world was beyond imagination and made him unable to think of other meanings...
"Well, it's the name,"
Shui Linlang could tell what Fang Ran was thinking, and explained with a gentle expression. Then she picked up the fragrant tea cup in front of her and sipped lightly, recalling the years in the mountains and forests while putting on a smile:
"At least I've never seen that senior turn into a dragon."
This is the tea she always brought from her elders in the past, but she doesn't drink it much now.
"That's it. I always feel like there's something different between that senior and Senior Tiangong..."
After receiving this explanation, Fangran felt a little embarrassed about his guess and smiled.
"It is indeed different. Even among the Night Watchmen, Senior Zhulong is the most special one,"
Eh...
Seeing the surprise on Fang Ran's face, Shui Linlang stroked the rim of the porcelain cup with her fingers, smiled softly and told the secret of midnight that only a few people in the world knew.
"Unlike the other elders who were adopted as children, only Senior Zhulong has been with the teacher from the beginning."
teacher...?
Noticing that Shui Linlang's name for the immortal was particularly special, she vaguely recalled that transcendent figure again, thinking about the awe that she couldn't express in a word at that time.
Fangran looked at Shui Linlang and couldn't help but asked in a soft voice:
"Grandma Shui, who is Immortal... exactly?"
