Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

After seeing Bai Yu, he didn't stop eating noodles. He tapped the noodles with his thumb and nodded to indicate that he was alive and awake.

Bai Yu took out an orange and handed it to the police officer whose left hand was still in a cast. He had to take care of the injured one, which showed that the Changye Division was short of staff right now.

When I walked into the ward, I saw Zhang Cuishan lying on the hospital bed wrapped like a mummy, but the electrocardiogram showed that he was very stable.

A policeman was feeding him porridge.

As a result, the police officer saw someone coming and turned around subconsciously, and the spoon poked directly into the man's nostrils.

“Hot, hot, hot—!”

The old class teacher screamed.

The clumsy female police officer looked embarrassed.

Bai Yu stretched out her hand: "If you don't mind, let me help you. I've taken care of patients before, so I'm quite experienced."

The female police officer also nodded and walked out, leaning on a cane.

Bai Yu picked up the porridge, tested the temperature, then poured a basin of cold water and put the porridge in it to cool for two or three minutes. After that, it still felt a little hot, so he blew on it a few times.

Zhang Cuishan ate half a bowl of lean meat porridge and sighed with a complicated expression, "Except for my mother, no one has ever taken care of me like this. I thought it would be a girl who would take care of me, but it turned out to be my student... and a boy at that."

Bai Yu laughed: "You dislike me, don't you? Then I'll leave?"

"Hey, no, I'm not full yet!" Zhang Cuishan's mouth twitched: "My whole body hurts so much and I can only eat liquid food, which is not nutritious enough."

"Didn't I give you some glucose or something?"

"That can only guarantee basic consumption. I'm a warrior, so I need to eat something to replenish my energy and blood to recover quickly." Zhang Cuishan glared: "I haven't eaten meat for three days. I can't stand it anymore. I'm going to punch the ceiling to pieces!"

Bai Yu said, "Have you ever considered that the other party just wants you to recover more slowly, and wants you to be weak for a longer time?"

Zhang Cuishan was silent: "..."

Bai Yu continued, "Because you're still in the observation period, right? Who knows if you'll go berserk next time? Even though the shepherd is dead, Old Banni is temporarily safe, but what if?"

"You are so good at talking, you must have a lot of friends, right?" Zhang Cuishan said with a glare.

"Doesn't this show that you teach well?" Bai Yu gave a thumbs-up: "You are my Chinese teacher."

For a moment, Zhang Cuishan couldn't find a suitable reason to refute.

"So, what exactly happened?" Bai Yu asked. "I remember Chang Ye Si almost issued an obituary for you. How come you suddenly came back to life, and your classmates suddenly found you?"

Zhang Cuishan tried to raise his head, but the back of his hand was bandaged, so he could only rub the edge of the table to relieve the itch: "To be honest, I don't know. I woke up in the hospital. Before I passed out, I remember it seemed like..."

He sighed: "I really don't remember, it seems like someone talked to me, but the content..."

Bai Yu: "I don't remember, and there's no need to force myself to remember."

Because the Heroic Spirit Contract is a temporary contract, its effect will not last long.

He won't be able to remember anything that happened during the contract process, which is naturally a good thing.

Bai Yu paused, then asked, "What are your plans after this?"

Zhang Cuishan said calmly, "What else can I do? I'll have to recuperate first. I'll have to wear the restraint ring for three months, and then I'll go for a full checkup. Only when they confirm I'm alright can they let me go free... But I can't continue to be a teacher. After making such a big mistake, the school won't hire me anymore. I'm not that shameless."

Bai Yu was about to offer some words of comfort when Zhang Cuishan laughed, "But this suits me perfectly. I didn't really want to do this anyway... I've been thinking about you little brats all day, seeing off one class after another. Now I feel hopeless about this life where I can see the end of it. It wouldn't be a bad idea to change jobs."

Bai Yu knew the other party was definitely pretending to be nonchalant, but he nodded in agreement. "That's fine too. You might as well take a break for a while. After all, the future is long and the road ahead is long. If you can't be a teacher, there are still many other professions. You can slowly experience life. Life is not a dead end. How can you know if you are not cut out for it if you don't try everything?"

Zhang Cuishan choked: "That's... not right. Why does what you said sound wrong?"

Bai Yu spread his hands and said, "I've always been curious. How did someone as simple-minded as you, such a simple-minded person, manage to reach the second level at such a young age?"

Zhang Cuishan said proudly: "Of course it's because I was born with supernatural powers."

"Anyone can be born with supernatural powers, but some people's supernatural powers only have a combat power equivalent to about 1.5 Laifu."

"You are quite curious about the cultivation system." Zhang Cuishan shook his head and said, "But it's too early for you now. You don't need to know all this yet..."

Bai Yu peeled a banana and handed it over: "Teacher, please have a banana."

Zhang Cuishan took a satisfying bite, then was stunned: "Why does your banana taste like barbecue?"

"To be honest, I bought some lamb skewers." Bai Yu said as he took two steps back, then took out a plastic box. After opening it, the smell of barbecue wafted out.

Zhang Cuishan hadn't tasted meat for three days, and his eyes had turned green.

"I was planning to share it with you, but you didn't agree, so I have to keep it to myself." Bai Yu ate half a skewer of barbecue and then sighed, "It's a pity that eating this so early in the morning is not good for your health."

Then he threw half of the barbecue into the trash can.

The act of wasting food in public is very similar to the behavior of a capitalist pouring out milk.

"Evil disciple!" Zhang Cuishan was furious. "As your master, am I worse than a trash can? You wouldn't even feed me if you fed the trash can!"

Bai Yu smiled sincerely and said, "As long as you say so, these mutton skewers are all yours."

Zhang Cuishan's mouth twitched. "Why are you in such a hurry? As long as you become a superhuman, you will definitely... Hey, hey, hey, no, no, no! I'm telling you, isn't that enough? Come here and show off for me!"

After eating a skewer of meat, the teacher's hard mouth became soft.

He explained, "I've already told you about the Transcendental System. It's divided into (chew chew) many levels. Levels are the most basic way to determine who's who. I only know the first three levels, and I'm not sure about the rest."

"The first-level transcendent is the most basic transcendent. At this stage, talent is usually the main factor, and one needs to master a transcendent skill as a guide. Martial artists call this the Qi-nourishing or Qi-training stage."

"The second-level extraordinary is called the acquired body-building realm in martial arts. It cultivates the qi and blood. The ninth level of acquired body-building is called the silver level. The qi and blood are like mercury and the bones are like steel."

"The third level of transcendence is known among martial artists as the Xiantian Spirit Refining Realm. It cultivates the spirit. The ninth level of the Xiantian Realm is the transformation of Qi into spirit. At this point, one can already master certain unique skills, or release sword energy. A powerful aura flows freely, and the Dantian is no longer vulnerable. Even if an ordinary warrior uses a sword with all his strength, it would be difficult to penetrate the body even half an inch. This realm is usually called the Golden Rank."

"These are all related to martial arts cultivation... However, while martial arts cultivation is a major trend, it is far from being the only one."

"There are many kinds of extraordinary people, and martial arts practitioners are just one of them. The so-called Tao is the path to transcendence."

"In the West, it's also called the Stairway to God."

"Ultimately, these are all extraordinary paths to advancement."

"These paths were all left behind by our predecessors. The path that martial artists follow is the sunny road that many predecessors have walked together. However, it is said that in later periods, the paths also diverge, and there is no such thing as different paths leading to the same destination."

"You can think of it this way as a series of trees. Even the same path can give rise to different paths."

“Different paths are like different trees.”

"At the forefront of these paths are those who stand at the pinnacle of the extraordinary system. They can also be called saints or divine beings."

"Disputes between paths are inevitable... but that's not something we need to worry about at this stage."

“Once you choose a path, there is no turning back.”

After listening to this, Bai Yu asked, "So how many kinds of paths are there in the world?"

"You kid, do you think you're going to the market to buy vegetables?" Zhang Cuishan scolded with a smile, "Most paths require special inheritances. How can they be so easy to find? There's no such thing as an encyclopedia that tells you how to obtain a path. The acquisition of any path is inseparable from one's own efforts and luck!"

"luck?"

"I can't tell you the details," Zhang Cuishan said mysteriously, his eyes half closed. "When you step into the Transcendent Realm in the future, you'll naturally understand why I was able to reach the Second Order Transcendent Realm at such a young age. You'll also understand that for us Daxia people, this Dragon Vein Seal is a priceless treasure... Any Transcendent Path is closely related to its region, culture, history, and mysteries. So don't even think about becoming a magician or a knight. That path is doomed to fail."

Bai Yu chatted with Zhang Cuishan for a while longer.

He now understood that the 'outside world' path mentioned by the Rose Lady was a path that had never existed before. Moreover, the name 'outside world' might also mean that the ultimate peak this path led to might be...

"Okay, teacher." Bai Yu saw that the other party had finished eating the mutton skewers, so he stood up and said, "Then I'll leave too."

"Go ahead, go ahead. What's the point of coming to see a stinky man like me? I can't turn into a pretty girl and date you." Zhang Cuishan moved his fingers and said, "Hurry up and improve your female classmates' favorability now. Many of them are in the hospital."

"Well, I'll just go take a look and then be back." Bai Yu said, "Anyway, they're all so lively and energetic, it doesn't look like they're going to have a funeral."

"...Don't say that to my face."

"Well, I'll just talk behind your back... I'll come to see you tomorrow, teacher." Bai Yu raised his thumb, gave a Kuuga-style thumbs-up, and then walked out.

"This brat..." Zhang Cuishan shook his head and looked at the ceiling boredly again.

"A good student." The police officer who had been smirking outside walked in. "Even after this incident, you didn't harbor any resentment at all. Such a pure heart is truly rare. You're a very good teacher."

"Hehe, that's not the case." Zhang Cuishan boasted: "The fact that I have such a student proves that God has been kind to me..."

The police officer took out a file bag and said, "...Are you really not going to be a teacher anymore? Even if Nanling is not suitable, Changyesi can find you a school in three months."

"No." Zhang Cuishan shook his head: "Please give me the information, I will sign it now."

"Really?"

"Think about it."

The police officer stopped trying to persuade him and just took out the document and put it in the other party's hand.

Zhang Cuishan moved his fingers, signed the words, and stamped them with his thumb.

The young police officer said solemnly, "This document will be forwarded directly by the Changye Division to the Eastern Theater Office... After the three-month probation period, you will become a member of the Seventh Army's vanguard corps, helping the people of Daxia conquer the subsidence zone and recover lost territory."

He stood still, raised his hand and saluted: "Comrade Zhang Cuishan, thank you for joining the army and for your continued dedication to the education industry."

Zhang Cuishan nodded and watched the other party leave.

He stared at the ceiling in silence, then smiled. "Three months... Fortunately, I made it in time. Before I go to the military, I can see the children's college entrance examination. It's great..."

Chapter 56 Welcome back

"You haven't been discharged from the hospital yet? Did you sneak out and break your leg?"

"Is that the first thing you say when we meet? You must have a lot of friends if you're so good at talking."

Tao Rusu covered her chest and said, "I'm so angry..."

"Grandma is in pain?"

"My grandma passed away a long time ago. I don't know if she's in pain, but I'm in pain." Tao Rusu raised her hand: "Hurry up, make up for it mentally."

Bai Yu threw a piece of fruit over.

"Humph, he actually threw something long, curved, and thick at me. I'm still a virgin, so adolescent boys are really..."

Bai Yu's face was expressionless: "It seems that you are a little too excited. You must have caused a lot of trouble for the nurses."

He looked around and said, "It's true that no one took care of you. With your broken leg, you probably haven't showered in days."

Tao Rusu picked up a banana and threw it at him: "Don't sniff around like a dog! I wipe my body myself, so it doesn't smell so bad!"

Bai Yu spread his hands: "If you say so, then so be it."

Tao Rusu grabbed the pillow unhappily, then frowned. This time, she covered her lower abdomen instead of her heart, and took a deep breath slowly.

Watching the other person's movements, Bai Yu asked curiously: "What are you doing..."

Tao Rusu interrupted: "I'm fine, nothing happened at all."

Her interruption was ineffective, so Bai Yu asked anyway, "Have you finally realized that you've gained belly fat in just a few days of hospitalization?"

Tao Rusu glared at him, "Nonsense! I'm in great shape! No extra fat at all, and I even have a six-pack! Don't underestimate me. Even if I perform well in the martial arts exam, I'll still be in the top ten in the school!"

After she got emotional, her expression twitched again, her eyes widened and her lips pouted, her expression control completely collapsed, and she took a breath of cold air: "Hiss..."

Bai Yu saw that she didn't seem to be pretending, so he immediately stepped forward and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Is your appendix inflamed?"

Tao Rusu couldn't help but want to give him a headbutt: "Do I have to emphasize this again? - My relatives are here!"

Bai Yu fell into silence.

Tao Rusu asked strangely, "You don't even know this?"

"Not really." Bai Yu touched his chin. "I just didn't expect that this world with extraordinary abilities couldn't solve this kind of pain point..."

It seems that there is not much difference in the human body structure. I couldn’t help but have more thoughts when I saw cat girls and dog girls before.

"Do you think the human body is so convenient?"

"It's really convenient. I once heard a surgeon friend say... After performing intestinal surgery on a patient, they just dumped the intestines back into the abdominal cavity and closed the abdomen. An intern asked if it needed to be sorted out. The answer was no, because it would automatically return to its original position." Bai Yu shook his finger. "Well, the human body is amazing, isn't it?"

Tao Rusu complained, "You're only seventeen, where do you have any surgeon friends?"

"Please don't worry about such details." Bai Yu added, "You're focusing on the wrong thing. So there's no convenient medicine to treat your foolish relative?"

"First of all, my relatives come regularly and don't do anything reckless, which means I'm healthy. Secondly, simply removing it would solve the problem once and for all." Tao Rusu tried to remain expressionless, but still doubled over in pain. "Removing it would cure it permanently."

"Well, this is a hospital..."

"Can you say something nice?" Tao Rusu's tone was filled with shame and anger.

"Then..." Bai Yu actually wanted to distract her, but it backfired unexpectedly. He could only think about it and replied, "Drink more hot water."

"Wood! You deserve to be single forever!"
