Chapter 2(1/3)
Living Immortal
In the morning, the weather today is not very bright.
Li Yi's ward welcomed a new guest, a male with quite handsome features. With the gold-rimmed glasses on his face, he looked like an urban elite.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Si saw Li Yi sitting on the bed, exactly like the meditation practice in the TV series.
Hearing the movement, Li Yi slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Zhao Si, and asked, "Who are you?"
Zhao Si looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar brothers in front of him with mixed emotions, and he was more happy and excited.
"Brother Yi, it's me, Zhao Si."
"Zhao... Si?" Li Yi looked confused at first, and then his mind was filled with confusion. Long-lasting memories kept emerging, and the picture was already blurry, but he could never forget it.
"Are you Zhao Si?"
The man in a suit and leather shoes in front of me is hard to associate with the glasses of the pot-headed man from back then. But if you look closely for a while, you can see that his features reflect Zhao Si back then.
"Zhao Si! What a good boy, you've become rich and handsome! Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tall and handsome in a suit and leather shoes. You've completely counterattacked. What are you doing now?"
"I majored in psychology in college, and now I am a psychiatrist." Zhao Si pulled up a stool and sat next to him, and the two of them talked very naturally, as if they were 10 years ago.
"When I graduated, I happened to catch up with the hospital reform. The benefits of public hospitals dropped significantly, and private hospitals could not meet the requirements. I simply did not enter the hospital and opened a clinic by myself. On weekdays, I mainly provide psychological counseling to people, and most of the patients are
Some children, wealthy landowners, and even some entertainers. It sounds like what you said back then..."
Li Yi immediately answered: "Most people who see private psychologists seek peace of mind, just like praying for Buddha in a temple."
"Hahaha, yes, if you really have mental illness, you should go to a regular hospital. Private clinics like mine don't have many medical equipment except for confidentiality. However, in the current social environment, more and more people need psychological counseling, so I am rushing to
It’s in the trend of the times.”
Li Yi asked curiously: "Why?"
"Old Qin people are suffering." Zhao Si beat his chest. Although he was not from Old Qin, Li Yi could probably understand what he meant.
"If I have the chance, I will definitely go to Qi State and enjoy the joy of Qi people. Unfortunately, it is difficult to obtain Qi nationality, and my parents are not willing to leave, so I can only continue to stay in Zhou State."
"What happened to Qi State?"
"The State of Qi has caught on to the express train of the Internet, and its economy has taken off. It is like the economic leader of the six countries in China. There are many development opportunities there, but if Zhou State goes out, there is basically no possibility of coming back."
"I remember, didn't we say that we were going to return to the Zhou Dynasty? As long as we have the nationality of the six countries, we can freely enter and exit their respective territories."
"You collapsed within a few months of being in coma. Qin Wude was the most energetic and fought all the way to the Mediterranean. That year was also the year when they fired their first shot. I thought it was a fierce battle." Zhao Si pushed forward with both hands and chuckled.
"In one year, I destroyed the Turks and went north to the pole. In two years, I crossed the Caspian Sea three times. During this period, a very good female general emerged. She was called the Wolf of Siberia. She was an invincible god of war. She almost planted the old Qin Xuan flag in the
On the ground in Rome, it was just like the Qi Kingdom's Eastern Expedition, attacking the Xiongnu and raining poison to destroy the sky, Ryukyu, and the shogunate. It has reached this point, and the old Qin people of the Zhou Dynasty are certainly not willing to reorganize the Zhou Dynasty."
"In the past few years since you have been in coma, we, the Six Kingdoms of China, have experienced a surge of "heroes descending from heaven", as if we have returned to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period."
"Speaking of which, do you still remember that when we were in junior high school, our school also accepted dozens of war orphans caused by Qi's Eastern Expedition. The class next to us was the naturalization class. The monitor of the naturalization class was Shiraishi Yukimi, a girl who was very tough.
He often fought with us." Zhao Sitong talked about things from his childhood, hoping to know what Li Yi could recall.
"Girls matured early when we were young, so we were all pushed down and beaten by her. You were often beaten to tears by her."

In the 1960s, technology was booming, and mobile phones and computers had just begun to become popular. At that time, access to the Internet required dial-up, and 1M of data seemed to cost one yuan.
Yucheng Chengbei Subdistrict Primary School is located between two villages. It is said that the street is surrounded by farmland. There are no buses or private buses. The six-story teaching building of the school is the most beautiful building within ten miles, and many students go to school here.
He is a rural child.
Li Yi was not gregarious at that time. Because his relative was the director, he became a librarian at a young age (the school was short of manpower). Whenever he had time, he would go into the library and read the Taoist scriptures presented by the Taoist temple. His father taught him to become a monk.
This is where Li Yi's worries started. In fact, Li Yi did not read Taoist scriptures at the beginning. At first, he preferred story telling, but the children's publications were all the same and not as good as the strange stories recorded in Taoist miscellanies.
In the eyes of adults, this is a coolie, but in the eyes of primary school students, he is a great official. For this reason, Li Yi collected candy and hot strips from the class just to reserve extremely rare comic books in the library in advance every week.
At that time, comic books were all donated, and they were sent from recycling bins, but this did not prevent children from having fun reading them.
The largest number of them were comics from the island country. Due to the annexation by the Qi State, a large number of cultural works from the Tiandu Peninsula, Ryukyu, and Fuso poured into China, which had a great impact on those who received Chinese ritual and music education at that time.
Li Yi, who is keen on reading Taoist classics, has to admit that these works are really interesting.
Later, they were discovered by the indoctrination class and they had a conflict.
"Li Yi!"
A pair of white and tender little hands slapped Li Yi on his desk, making him tremble with fright.
Looking up, he saw a rather cute face with fair skin, a long ponytail, and fluent Chinese speaking. Later, Li Yi realized that the naturalized group was most likely to have learned Chinese speaking since childhood.
Nobles, being able to speak fluent Chinese in all parts of China is a sign of nobility.
Her name is Shiraishi Yukimi, the monitor of the naturalization class. Women develop earlier than men. She is a head taller than Li Yi, and her female characteristics have also begun to develop. At that time, Li Yi thought they were breast muscles and was very afraid of her.
"What are you doing?" Li Yi puffed out his chest in a bluffing tone.
Shiraishi Yukimi said sternly: "Are you relying on your status as a librarian to keep monopolizing comic books?"
"How can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air?!"
Li Yi suddenly became angry and slapped the table. Soon the two of them struggled with each other. After a few seconds, he was pushed to the ground. Bai Shixuejian sat on him and made it impossible for him to get up.
"Start!"
"Have you always been monopolizing comic books?"
"Get up and drive!"
Li Yi's cries soon attracted the teacher, who took them both to the office and scolded them both.
After scolding for a few minutes, the teacher looked at Shiraishi Yukimi and said:
"Xue Jian, I always thought you were a student with good character. Why did you beat Li Yi? You even went to his class to beat him! Call your parents tomorrow!"
When Bai Shixue heard that she was calling her parents, she immediately panicked and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Teacher!" Li Yi raised his hand, "Everyone is responsible for the work, and I was the one who moved first!"
The teacher was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he got angry: "You are still very proud! Call your parents here tomorrow. Since it is Li Yi's fault, Xuejian, you can leave first. It has nothing to do with you here."
After the teacher's investigation and Li Yi's surrender, in order to realize the decentralization of power, the librarian had one more person, Shiraishi Xuemi. At that time, Li Yi felt that his territory had been violated, and he had always had a strong prejudice against Shiraishi Xuemi.
Baishi Xuejian seemed not to notice, and kept pestering Li Yi to let him read the history book "Overseas Countries" in the library.
"If these things are not tested in the exam, what are you going to do with them?" Li Yi flipped through the thick books carelessly. Most of the records in them were in classical Chinese. Apart from the teachers in the entire elementary school, he was probably the only one who could understand them.
"These countries are gone. They are nothing more than the civilization derived from our country. You can study Chinese better than this. The six countries of China are enough for you to memorize. Chu is in the south, Zhao is in the north, Yan is in the northeast, Qi is in the east, and Qin is in the west.
, Han and Wei are in the middle. After modern times, it became Xia ZaiZhong, so why is Xia ZaiZhong? Who is missing among the Six Kingdoms?"
"Well" Bai Shixue saw that he couldn't think of it even after scratching his hair, so he asked: "Why?"
"Idiot, because we have occupied all the surrounding land. The territory of the Zhou Kingdom originally belonged to the Seven Kingdoms. From the North Pole in the north, to the Luzon Islands in the south, to the Bering Strait in the east, and to the Caspian Sea in the west, this is our Chinese land. We
It’s the east of the world.” Li Yi spread his arms as if to describe the size of China.
"There is also South Korea missing from the six countries. Let's change it to something simpler. Which country was the first to go to Fuso?"
"Qin! Emperor Jinmu Xu Fu!" When Shiraishi Yuki finally encountered a question he understood, he immediately raised his hand to answer it.
"Wrong! They are from Langya, Qi, and Xu Fu is from Qi. You are really stupid. You don't understand this and still want to learn extracurricular knowledge."
"I" Shiraishi Xuejian hesitated for a long time, and then his little face returned to its usual serious look, just like a little adult, "No one in other classes plays with our naturalized class. Many people call us islanders. I think
I know why. Today the Chinese teacher taught me that fallen leaves return to their roots. I want to know where my roots are. If I know, can I play with you?"
"What is Fallen Leaves Returning to Its Roots?" Li Yi asked curiously.
"Want to know?" Bai Shixuejian raised his head slightly, "Then you have to read this book for me first."
"Forget it, I'll look it up in the dictionary. Falling dead leaves fall on the roots of trees. It means that things have a certain destination. It usually refers to people who live in a foreign country, and they will eventually"
"You are lying! No investigation is allowed!"
Only in Chinese and History, which the other party was not good at, did Li Yi dare to be arrogant, and at the same time, he gave a little guidance at the request of the other party. They fought a few more times in the middle, and did not let the teacher know about the three chapters of the agreement, but Li Yi never won.
For this reason, Li Yi rummaged through many Taoist scriptures for magical secrets, and finally found a copy of Wuqinxi. After his magical skills finally took effect (his body began to develop), they graduated from elementary school.
Bai Shixuejian left Yucheng because of her parents' transfer.

"You were so courageous at that time. You dared to contradict Master Jue. I would have thrown the blame on the stone." Zhao Si said while paying attention to Li Yi's expression. From the beginning to the end, he did not see a trace of doubt or confusion.
On the contrary, it is full of remembrance.
Obviously there is nothing wrong with Li Yi's memory.
"Brother Yi, when I graduated, I remember Xuejian asked you to go out alone. What did she say to you?"
