Season Division

Chapter 20

Xu Heng basically spent the rest of the time in this kind of boring study.

The first day was fine, he only studied for half a day, and when dinner came, Fu Yongqing let him rest.

Xu Heng made no progress that day.

So from the next day, except for eating and sleeping, he was required to spend all his time learning the dichotomy of solar terms.

At that moment, Xu Heng missed the days in the school classroom very much.

He had never missed his alma mater so much, he missed it like crazy.

What solar term is divided into two equal parts? Trisection? Sixths?

I'd rather learn calculus!

...

After three full days, Xu Heng finally mastered the technique of bisecting.

This time it was all on his own hard work and sweat, without relying on anything external.

He also wondered if the Seven Star Big Dipper would react again to help him get over this difficulty quickly.

However, the Seven Star Big Dipper didn't seem to have enough energy to replenish, so it didn't respond at all.

So when Fu Yongqing frowned again and again, and looked at him with slightly doubtful eyes.

Xu Heng had no choice but to grit his teeth, hold back his tears, and began to attack the third division.

Probably in the eyes of the senior sister, it took him three days to learn how to divide into two equal parts, which is a bit shocking.

During this period, Zhou Yanan also visited their house.

Bring the glutinous rice that was exchanged with the members of the scavenger before.

At the same time, I also brought back good news. The surveillance video submitted by Xu Heng was inspected by relevant departments and confirmed that it had not been tampered with in any way.

So now he is completely cleared of suspicion, and has nothing to do with Lin Cheng's murder.

But this does not change the status quo that Xu Heng still needs to study at home.

eight days later...

He barely learned the technique of controlling the solar terms in thirds.

During this period, someone came to visit again and brought a bottle of medicine in a refrigerator.

After Xu Heng took it, the two broken meridians slowly recovered.

It looked the same as before, and it was the same after being healed by the Spring Festival Commander.

Xu Heng did not continue to try to make breakthroughs in martial arts, but continued his reckless control skills.

Twenty days later...

The quarters were stumbled and completed.

Then he was completely stuck.

For several days in a row, Xu Heng failed frequently and made no progress in the quintile.

Fu Yongqing didn't have time to wait for him.

The night before the Spring Festival was coming, Fu Yongqing received a call that she needed to leave.

"Senior Sister, are you really leaving again? I...I'm a little bit reluctant to part with you."

Xu Heng suddenly lost the courage to face this parting.

He sat on the sofa lonely, with his back to Fu Yongqing, his voice even trembled slightly.

In the past few years, they have been getting together less and more, and they have not seen their senior sister for two and a half years before. This time she has only been back for a month, but she is leaving again.

Xu Heng could only cover his mouth tightly with his hands, suppressing the emotions in his heart, for fear that he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Xu Heng, after the beginning of spring tomorrow, you will be seventeen years old."

At this time, Fu Yongqing who was standing at the door said suddenly.

Her voice was soft, with a hint of relief and emotion in her tone.

Xu Heng couldn't help being startled.

Yes, it will be the beginning of spring tomorrow, and the new year is here again.

I'm going to be seventeen soon.

Old Xu and the others haven't come back for almost seven years.

"Xu Heng, senior sister has come back less and less these years, don't blame senior sister, because there are some things that senior sister has to do.

You may have been a little neglected in the past two years, but the senior sister knows very well that you matured, were sensible, and were more sensitive than other peers of the same age.

Since you were a child, you have always been duplicity, and love to be brave..."

"Senior sister, when are you coming back?" Xu Heng suddenly turned around and looked at Fu Yongqing.

He didn't dare to let Senior Sister talk anymore.

In the past, when the senior sister had something to do or a mission, she would simply leave.

Why are you saying these things this time?

Why does it sound a bit disturbing?

Facing Xu Heng's gradually frightened gaze, Fu Yongqing was taken aback for a moment.

"Don't think too much, senior sister just... I feel like I haven't seen you for too long, you've grown up all of a sudden, and I'm not used to it." She shook her head lightly.

"On the day of the college entrance examination in June, can you come back and watch me take the seasonal exam?"

Xu Heng sat on the sofa, looked into her eyes and said.

Fu Yongqing stood in place, and after a few breaths, she slowly walked in front of Xu Heng, and gently hugged his head into her arms.

"Okay, I'll come back to see you on the day of the college entrance examination."

A soft voice rang in Xu Heng's ear.

Xu Heng only felt his head sink into a towering softness, a faint milky fragrance filled his mouth and nose, and after listening to his senior sister's promise, his heart finally settled down.

"Senior Sister, I will give you a gift when the time comes, such as the number one scholar of the festival in Darong City."

"No. 1 is not important. Senior Sister only hopes that you can patiently learn the skills of controlling solar terms first, and don't rush for success in order to catch up with this year's college entrance examination."

"Sister, I have confidence."

"Success is good, failure is good; gain is good, loss is good; right and wrong, honor or disgrace."

After Fu Yongqing finished speaking, she smiled slightly, and gently rubbed Xu Heng's hair.

...

After a while, the room was silent.

Fu Yongqing had already left.

On the dining table, there was a large stack of yellow paper, incense offerings, a few pieces of candles, and a small metal box.

The senior sister didn't take his things, but left him a gift.

Xu Heng looked at the empty old house, and couldn't recall the joy he had before.

He guessed that the senior sister might be going to perform some dangerous mission, but the senior sister didn't want to say anything, and he couldn't ask any more questions.

But even if the senior sister said it, what can I do?

What's the use of building six layers of gas?

"Isn't it the fifth equal division of solar terms, isn't it the sixth equal division of solar terms? I don't believe that with my hard work and perseverance, I can't do it."

Xu Heng immediately got up and walked to the dining table, grabbing the pieces of candles.

"Light a candle!"

With a wave of his hand, he lit the candle with a lighter.

"Fight!"

Whoosh!

The next moment, the consciousness looked inside the mind again.

The Seven Star Big Dipper gradually became bright again in the faint candlelight.

"Om~"

He heard the trembling of the Big Dipper again, it was very light and faintly revealing a kind of joy.

Xu Heng's consciousness also directly penetrated his body and rushed to the sea of ​​consciousness.

Under his will, a ray of solar energy was suddenly controlled and stood still.

In just one thought, the solar term quickly turned into five equal parts, six equal parts, seven equal parts... ten equal parts.

Afterwards, the ten strands of weak solar terms continuously changed into various forms in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Diffuse, condense, turn into thin needles, and connect into circular arcs...

"Hahaha, I did it, I did it again!"

When Xu Heng opened his eyes again, the sky outside was already bright, but it was not as bright as his loud laughter.

"Jingle Bell……"

At this time, the phone rang again.

"Again?"

Seeing that it was Zhou Yanan who was calling, Xu Heng hurriedly turned his head and glanced out the window.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound of human voices coming from outside.

I thought there was air pollution again...

"Hey, Captain Zhou, what's the matter early in the morning, won't you let me run away again?" Xu Heng answered the phone and said leisurely.

"Xu Heng, are you in your old house? Listen to me, don't go out, don't go out, do you hear me? I'll come right over..."

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Yanan hung up immediately after finishing speaking.

Xu Heng's face was full of confusion: "???"

...
