A small disturbance sound created by a crowd of individuals might be heard in her ears, and Yun Li was most afraid of such a state of affairs. She panickly raised her eyes in haste, caught his gaze, due to this fact she subconsciously raised her hand to the touch the corresponding seat.
She abruptly understood, however she additionally was not very certain.
However from the look in her eyes, Yun Li may sense that he had no different ideas in his thoughts.
Yun Li shifted her physique as she probed out and moved her physique leaning to 1 facet in direction of his.
The person moved nearer on the identical time, stopping about three centimeters from her ear. His breath was unsteady and his voice was low: “When the Bodhisattva practices deep Prajna (highest knowledge) Paramita, he sees the vacancy of the 5 skandhas, and he cures all struggling.”
“……”
Maybe it was as a result of he wished her to listen to him clearly, his speech was neither too quick nor too sluggish.
But failing that good intention.
Yun Li didn’t perceive a phrase in any respect.
So to place it extra critically,
Yun Li felt that the present state of affairs was no totally different from being deaf.
What sort of baby’s play is that this?!!!
Is it a sutra?
Yun Li was confused in the identical place.
The person ready for the message subsequent to him couldn’t maintain again his laughter: “What’s that look in your face?”
She didn’t reply nor did she dare to delay any additional. Earlier than her reminiscence pale, Yun Li half guessed, half recited from her reminiscence, put collectively out a sentence that hardly made sense.
She had a confused look on her face however her coronary heart had calmed down.
That she shouldn’t be a hindrance both.
Solely after the strain had handed did Yun Li have the thoughts to observe the others play the sport. It was solely then she realized that some individuals additionally listened with their proper ear. As a result of utilizing this facet of path, listening to different individuals speaking, her face didn’t need to face the group.
Yun Li cared a lot that she would assume that listening together with her proper ear appeared deliberate. However for individuals who didn’t care about this, they didn’t take note of which ear different individuals have been listening with.
Similar to she didn’t take note of which foot somebody used to stroll on first.
With this in thoughts, Yun Li gave the person a quiet look.
So when she performed the digital ‘commit suicide by leaping from a constructing machine’ venture right this moment, he already observed that she was deaf in her left ear?
However at the moment, he had given her the good thing about the doubt and didn’t expose her straight.
The person didn’t discover her line of sight, he was taking part in a one-handed recreation together with his head right down to go the time with an absence of curiosity.
It was a single-player recreation known as 2048.
The utmost quantity has now been synthesized to 1024.
By this time, the phrases have additionally been handed to the tip.
The final individual was He Jia Meng. Whereas everybody was watching she confidently reported her reply, “Guanyin Bodhisattva desires to eat the jackfruit.”
“…”
The field was quiet for a second after which burst into uproarious laughter.
He Jia Meng scratched her head, “What’s incorrect? Isn’t that proper?”
“In fact not, Xiao He, what’s incorrect with you? You gave such a sacred sentence to go like this.” Fei Shui was comfortable, “However I’m kinda shocked, how come the entrance is passing so quick? It made me consider chángduǎnjù [长短句: long and short verse (a pre-Tang verse form consisting chiefly of seven-character lines interspersed with shorter or longer ones / ci, a poetry written to certain tunes with strict tonal patterns and rhyme schemes, in fixed numbers of lines and words, originating in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) and fully developed in the Song Dynasty (960-1279)], I used to be baffled once I heard it.”
Xu Qing Tune let loose a low snicker, ashamed as he apologized: “Sorry, I simply couldn’t bear in mind the direct transmission of the primary paragraph of the Coronary heart Sutra, what I can recite, I recite it.”
The few individuals after him additionally held their laughter for half a day, “Plus one.”
The sequence stopped on the males.
The goal was set and the dialog didn’t final lengthy. Everybody simply assumed he had a variety of data. In addition to, the Coronary heart Sutra just isn’t very lengthy, so it was no shock that he had memorized the primary paragraph. Shortly afterwards, the alternative desk additionally completed passing the phrase, narrowly profitable by a single phrase.
After just a few phrases of banter, the group started to pack up their issues and put together to go away.
Yun Li was torn repeatedly earlier than she plucked up the braveness to speak to the person, “That…”
The person paused and raised his eyes.
His eyelashes have been skinny and lengthy, his eye sockets deep. His double eyelids have been skinny and the ends of the eyes have been naturally upturned, outlining a chilly and stern profile. When unemotional, they carry an elusive awe.
“You simply informed me to return nearer…” Yun Li regretted it a bit of but she couldn’t assist however proceed, “Was conscious…?”
——was conscious that my left ear couldn’t hear?
To hold on meant the identical as saying the reply, she stopped in time as he checked out him.
The person didn’t reply.
Yun Li faltered in speech, “Why don’t you say something?”
The person checked out her and mentioned calmly, “You didn’t end your phrases.”
“…”
Yun Li modified her query, “It’s simply that, simply now why did you ask me to return nearer?”
4 eyes locked.
There was a blurry shadow of individuals round them, noisy and seemingly silent. Simply as Yun Li felt he was about to level it out within the subsequent second, the person put his cellphone again in his pocket and mentioned casually, “Guidelines, you’ll be able to’t let the third individual hear.”
There occurred to be a KTV close by.
Xu Qing Tune gave the impression to be a VIP right here, and there was no have to e book upfront, so he went in and was taken by the waiter to a celebration room. The house was large, with three steps dividing it into two break up ranges, greater than sufficient to accommodate ten extra individuals.
Drinks and snacks and fruit plates have been served one after one other.
A number of of the extra relaxed ones have already began singing with their mics and the platform was occupied one after one other. The remainder of the group was divided into a number of piles, both taking part in playing cards or liar’s cube (cube recreation).
Different individuals like Yun Li, sat round chatting and listening to songs.
There have been seven or eight individuals sitting at this desk, a number of of whom Yun Li couldn’t title. Within the center was Xu Qing Tune, smiling and clinking glasses with others. The person who had simply include him was nowhere to be seen.
She seemed down at her cell phone and swept round once more, deliberately or unintentionally.
At this second, a lady half-joked: “Mr Xu, the place is that good-looking man you simply introduced with you? Why didn’t he come over to pay the invoice after shedding?”
Yun Li’s consideration was diverted.
Xu Qing Tune was helpless: “He isn’t feeling nicely, let him go.”
The lady’s title was Du Ge Fei who in response to He Jia Meng, was a feminine information anchor of a platform and had requested for the WeChat of just about all the lads current right this moment. She held her cheeks and continued to pry: “Is it your girlfriend checking up on you?”
Xu Qing Tune declined to remark.
Du Ge Fei: “Didn’t have time to ask for WeChat but.”
As if he didn’t perceive the implication, Xu Qing Tune sighed with remorse: “That’s such a pity.”
“…”
Du Ge Fei was clearly frozen.
Somebody on the desk snorted amusing.
Yun Li pressed the corners of her lips collectively, eager to snicker a bit of too. However afterwards, her temper for no purpose, fell flat once more.
It got here out of nowhere, like a mimosa within the solar, with its head hanging—dejected and shedding its spirit.
It was additionally like a coin that had been dropped right into a wishing pool had come to nothing.
After some time, He Jia Meng got here up subsequent to her and requested in a whisper, “Miss Xiao Yun, do you need to go to the bathroom? I don’t actually need to use the bathroom within the personal room.”
Yun Li seemed again, “A bit, I’ll go together with you ba.”
Once they got here out of the personal room, the hall was dimly lit and the lights gave the impression to be glued with a layer of material.
Inside just a few steps there was a public bathroom and as you entered, the material was lifted.
After settling, Yun Li got here out to clean his palms.
He Jia Meng was already outdoors and abruptly requested, “Why are your ears so crimson?”
Listening to that, Yun Li seemed on the mirror.
He Jia Meng surveyed it for a second and added, “And it’s solely the suitable facet that’s crimson.”
“….” Yun Li additionally simply observed, “I didn’t know that.”
“Wasn’t,” He Jia Meng laughed ha ha, “that good-looking man simply handed the phrase too near you?”
Yun Li was busy denying, “No.”
He Jia Meng didn’t consider it in any respect and continued, “That good-looking man is like an iceberg, see, others can’t even get just a few phrases out of him, however I by no means thought he would take the initiative to flirt with a woman.”
Yun Li couldn’t resist and needed to change the topic, “Don’t you already know him?”
“No, I don’t know him, most likely as a result of I’ve been at headquarters earlier than and haven’t come over right here a lot.” He Jia Meng mentioned, “I simply heard from a colleague that I noticed him within the store this morning too.”
“Hn?”
“It appears that evidently he’s a buddy of the boss. He came visiting to assist out just a few days in the past and might be working at EAW afterwards too.” He Jia Meng was bouncing with pleasure as she mentioned, “I’m lucky to see one thing lovely, I noticed him together with his masks off and my boss sitting subsequent to me, I used to be in a trance and thought I used to be in heaven.”
“…”
“However to be trustworthy, I’m a bit nervous once more.”
“What?”
“Don’t you assume this good-looking man appears fairly onerous to get together with? This sort of ‘with particular connection’ man, principally couldn’t work nicely both.” He Jia Meng added, “In addition to that, he’s fairly gloomy and a bit intimidating.”
Yun Li unconsciously spoke for him, “Didn’t Mr Xu say he wasn’t feeling nicely? Possibly he simply doesn’t need to speak an excessive amount of.”
He Jia Meng: “Proper oh, I forgot.”
…
Most individuals’s flights have been booked for tomorrow, so this second one didn’t final lengthy.
Again on the lodge, it was simply after twelve o’clock when Yun Li acquired out of the bathe. She lay down wearily on the mattress, content material to cuddle up below the quilt as she simply wished to sleep till it was darkish throughout.
It was true that she nonetheless felt uninterested in social interplay.
She didn’t know why she had gone to the karaoke too.
After a very long time, Yun Li opened her eyes, stared on the white ceiling and abruptly raised her hand to the touch her proper ear.
It wasn’t scorching anymore.
The following day, Yun Li wakened and informed He Jia Meng that he wouldn’t be returning to Nanwu for a brief time frame, in order that she didn’t have to e book a flight.
He Jia Meng mentioned he understood, after which gave her a room renewal for every week.
Yun Li had nothing to do right this moment, so she dawdled out in mattress and wished to order a takeaway. After interested by it, she despatched a message to Deng Chuqi, asking her when she was free to have dinner collectively together with her.
The following second, Deng Chuqi known as: “I’m having dinner proper now and since I’m too lazy to kind so I name you straight. What day are you coming again to Xifu?”
“I shouldn’t return.”
“Ah? Why?” Deng Chuqi was stupefied, “Don’t you report on the finish of the month?”
The phrase ‘run away from dwelling’ was actually embarrassing and Yun Li was too embarrassed to say it, “I don’t have something to do even once I return there anyway, so I’d as nicely come right here and get aware of the surroundings first.”
“Oh oh, do you need to come over and stick with me then?” Deng Chuqi mentioned, “My roommate may be very good, it’s simply that my room is a bit small.”
Yun Li: “No, my lodge room just isn’t due for one more week and I’m going to hire a flat first. I’ve been wanting on the rental web site for the previous two days and there’s one which appears fairly good. Will you go together with me to have a look then?”
Deng Chuqi: “Certain ah! Are you able to do it on the weekend? I’ve nothing to do on weekends.”
Yun Li curled her lips, “Certain.”
Deng Chuqi requested once more, “However you’re not staying?”
Yun Li: “I keep, however I sometimes need to shoot movies and need to discover a place, in any other case it should have an effect on my roommates.”
The 2 of them chatted for some time and after hanging up the cellphone, Yun Li watched an previous drama whereas consuming takeaway.
Time handed and it was already afternoon. The solar had simply set when Yun Li obtained a message from He Jia Meng. It mentioned that the video equivalent to the merchandise she had tried yesterday had been despatched to her electronic mail tackle.
Yun Li replied with a “Sure”.
If she was going to hire an condo, she could be fairly busy the subsequent time.
Yun Li wished to chop brief the video first. She pulled out the SD card from the digicam and related it to the pc. She skimmed by means of the footage she had shot earlier and stopped the video when she noticed the VR bungee leaping part.
On the finish of the venture, Yun Li had left her digicam on the tripod there and solely remembered it midway by means of the stroll.
The video additionally included a scene after she had left——
Du Ge Fei came visiting to speak to her, “I need to do this recreation too, how do I play it?”
The person didn’t even trouble with perfunctory enterprise this time, staring on the VR in his hand and saying with no ripple, “Discover the employees.”
Then it was Yun Li who got here again to get the digicam, and Du Ge Fei didn’t say a lot anymore and straight went away.
“…”
This did correspond to what He Jia Meng had mentioned, that individuals with particular connections principally didn’t work correctly.
For some purpose, Yun Li pulled ahead and watched the half the place the person tied the security rope for her yet again. Though she knew the person needs to be out of endurance, she someway nonetheless had the sensation of being handled specifically.
Solely then did she open her mailbox, pretending to be calm and unconcerned, and obtain the zip file that He Jia Meng had despatched her.
After ready for a while, she extracted knowledge from a compressed file and opened it.
Every of those clips was additionally marked with the title of the venture, in order that she may simply submit it to the corresponding video. Glancing on the thumbnail of one of many movies, Yun Li paused for a second.
She didn’t know if He Jia Meng had put it in with a shaky hand, nevertheless it wasn’t a clip of the venture she was taking part in.
As a substitute, it was the face of the person she had simply been observing for a very long time.
The one with out the masks.
Yun Li licked her decrease lips and clicked away.
He appeared to have by chance pressed the report button with out wanting on the digicam. With the distant management in his hand, it seemed like he was debugging it and taking part in with it carelessly.
The image went up and down.
One second it traveled a number of meters excessive, near the ceiling, in order that you would clearly see the sport gadgets round you; one other second it dropped to the underside, in order that you would solely see the grain of the ground.
Yun Li abruptly reacted.
This gave the impression to be the drone the membership had seen right this moment.
On the finish of the video, it appeared that somebody subsequent to him known as out to him and the person abruptly stopped transferring. A number of seconds later, the view descended from mid-air again to the bottom. This was additionally the place the clip ends.
Due to this motion, the person’s look turned an increasing number of acquainted, and the impression in her thoughts turned even clearer.
Pondering again to a sure flashing level, Yun Li opened up the E website and flipped to a video he had bookmarked a very long time in the past.
It was first posted within the change submit on E web site, however was later moved to the video part.
It was from a earlier Nationwide College Robotics Competitors.
The video was edited and extracted footage.
The youngman is good-looking, tall and skinny, sporting a black crew uniform with a moon badge fixed to his sleeve. On the again is the symbol of the West Voltaic College of Science and Expertise and the crew title: Distinctive.
He holds a distant management in his hand, concentrating on the robotic in entrance of him.
A number of individuals subsequent to him jumped up and cheered when the victory was introduced.
The younger man is extraordinarily well-built, however he didn’t smile and stood stoically by. His temperament is heat and clear, not as gloomy as it’s every now and then considered one of them grabbed him onerous. He frowned and struggled just a few occasions earlier than lastly laughing uncontrollably.
He was at an age the place he was wildly enthusiastic and didn’t want to cover his feelings.
It overlapped with the person within the video simply now.
It was the identical man.
Furthermore, it didn’t appear to be the identical individual.
The video was a minor web sensation at first. Later, it was additionally revealed that the teen had skipped a grade to go to school and was solely fifteen years previous when he entered the competitors.
Unbelievably good life.
There have been varied feedback below the video on the time. One of many hottest was a joke that prolonged from the moon badge worn by {the teenager} – so there’s even a moon on earth.
When she noticed the video, Yun Li was nonetheless fifteen years previous and had simply began her first 12 months of highschool.
At the moment, she was a median scholar, however she by chance acquired into the most effective highschool in Xi Fu (West Volta). Introvert and reticent, hardworking but restricted in her skills, she was overwhelmed by the excellence of her classmates.
She additionally aspired to be gifted and fell brief to be out of the odd.
{The teenager} entered right into a lens presently.
He turned the existence she had briefly admired and desperately wished to be when she was younger.
In any case these years, the web fever was short-lived but the traces nonetheless stay.
Tapping this data into the search field, Yun Li may nonetheless discover the interview {the teenager} gave again when the outcomes of the faculty entrance exams got here out, it was accompanied by a photograph taken at random.
The younger man seemed into the digicam with a youthful forehead. He had the spirit of a person who couldn’t be defeated by the mundane world.
Under it was marked with a bunch of textual content——
The highest scholar within the science examinations of Nanwu Metropolis in 2008, Fu Shi Ze.
