The Real Way to Cultivate in the City
Chapter 218 - 167: Black Impermanence: Little Brother, You’re Not Being Honest! (2)
What relates to him is...
Now they passed by a claw machine shop.
In the morning, Li Chuchu spent over a thousand yuan, and only managed to snag a single yellow stuffed puppy. With that "lesson," she was rather calm.
But for Lin Hao, this place was the "Beast Soul Garden"...
Since they’re here...
"Residual Pill Ancestor Lin Hao used Soul Crystal to successfully capture a Soul Beast."
"Residual Pill Ancestor Lin Hao used Soul Crystal to successfully capture a Soul Beast."
"Residual Pill Ancestor Lin Hao used Soul Crystal..."
Fifteen minutes later...
The owner of the claw machine shop cautiously invited Lin Hao to one side, directly refunding Lin Hao’s payment from fifteen minutes ago.
"Handsome, I’ve refunded you the money, and you can take the dolls you just snagged too. It’s a small business, please understand, let’s be friends...
Don’t come next time."
At this point, the claw machine shop owner seemed to think of something, he pulled out a piece of paper on which he quickly wrote an address and handed it to Lin Hao.
"If you really want to snag dolls, go to this shop. The owner of that shop... is my good friend!
If you go and snag dolls at his shop, I’ll cover the cost!"
Two hours later...
"At the loose cultivator market, Lin Hao became friends with eleven loose cultivators dedicated to the Beast Soul Garden. They claimed that at first sight of Lin Hao, it was like they had known him forever."
"Not only did they waive the Spirit Stone fees for Lin Hao to capture Soul Beasts, they even gifted Lin Hao Spirit Stones to help him make new friends."
"This made Lin Hao marvel that, in the Cultivation Realm, there are indeed good people."
While snagging dolls, every time Lin Hao caught a doll, he would wrap the condensed Divine Soul Power from its body using magical power, and send it into his storage bag.
When the incarnation returns to Valve City, he can take these "Divine Souls" to the Valve City stray dog shelter...
As for the remaining stuffed toys, it’s impossible to put them in the storage bag under public scrutiny, so they have to be taken back to the hotel.
Li Chuchu called a small truck and happily helped move over a thousand dolls onto it.
Although she didn’t catch these dolls herself, the past two hours were incredibly fun for her...
"Wow! That guy is amazing!"
"So good-looking and skilled at claw machines, really impressive!"
"His figure, his looks, these dolls..."
"..."
To Li Chuchu, each praise seemed like honey; she enjoyed hearing people compliment Lin Hao even more than being praised herself.
If it weren’t for considering it might be impolite, she would have pulled out her phone and said to those girls:
"Sisters, open up the payment code, if you can praise him, say a bit more." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
...
Back at the hotel, with the help of hotel staff, the dolls were delivered upstairs...
"Just put them in the living room; everyone can pick some favorites, they’re free."
These dolls, just leave them in the living room.
Can’t let the hotel staff open the door to this suite’s bedroom...
It’s important to know that technically, Lin Hao is the only one checked into this hotel, with only his ID registered.
If someone opened that bedroom door...
Inside were his incarnation, Lucky, White Impermanence, and... half of Black Impermanence.
It was lively, sure, but if someone went in, it’d be quite frightening.
If someone bold enough said, "Show your ID cards," it would be even more amusing...
However, under Lin Hao’s "supervision," nothing unexpected happened.
The hotel staff who helped picked some dolls they liked and took them.
Seeing that it was late, Li Chuchu held Qianqian’s hand and prepared to go to bed.
Li Chuchu: "Good night Lin Hao, I had a great time tonight."
Qianqian: "Good night Teacher Lin, have a good sleep."
After exchanging good nights with them, Lin Hao looked at the room filled with dolls, swept his hand, and placed them all into the storage bag.
It looked much neater this way; they’ll be taken out again in daylight.
Li Chuchu returned to her room with Qianqian, and after taking off her coat, she squat down and said to Qianqian:
"Qianqian had a fun day today, right? Let’s read a book before bedtime."
Bedtime reading is a good habit.
Li Chuchu found a book in her room, particularly suitable for children to read, titled —
"Grimm’s Fairy Tales."
Author: Unknown.
It’s a widely circulated fairy tale storybook; the exact author is untraceable, but indeed it’s a good book.
When children read this book, they learn that losing a shoe is not necessarily a bad thing and realize the wisdom of "letting go." They are encouraged to grab frogs proactively. If kissing a frog doesn’t turn it into a prince, they’ll bring it home to save on household expenses and reduce meat and vegetable costs. In this process, they unconsciously learn "multi-angle thinking" and "priority for family," etc.
However, in recent years, due to "Grimm’s Fairy Tales," frogs in many cities became protected animals from getting eaten.
Upon receiving the "Grimm’s Fairy Tales" from Li Chuchu, Qianqian said she would read diligently tonight and could recite it word-for-word tomorrow.
Li Chuchu: "Reciting it isn’t necessary, but don’t pressure yourself too much, just have a look before bedtime."
Qianqian: "Mm-hmm."
Qianqian nodded, but she had high expectations for herself.
After getting ready for bed, Qianqian returned to her bedroom within the suite.
She kicked off her shoes and held "Grimm’s Fairy Tales," page by page...
Tearing it open, chewing and swallowing.
"Long, long ago,..."
Regarding learning, Qianqian now has her unique learning method.
