Chapter 58

Bai Wuxia who was next to him also saw the voting results, held his mobile phone and said, "Junior Sister, I didn't expect you to be so popular. Your popularity is even stronger than the most popular actor nowadays. Our store can increase the price again, hahaha... ..."

Tu Li gave him a straight look, Bai Wuxia's laughter became smaller and smaller, and finally closed his mouth.

She sighed weakly, and walked up to the second floor with a somewhat vicissitudes of pace.

Bai Wuxia looked at her back, and a wretched smile suddenly appeared on that handsome face full of celestial spirit.

He really wanted to know what secrets his junior sister had in her heart, hehe.

Bai Wuxia spent ten yuan without hesitation to vote for Tu Li.

In this short ten seconds, Tu Li's votes increased a lot.

Before 00:00 the next day, the examination committee officially announced the list of the five unlucky, oh no, lucky ones who were open to the public for live broadcast of this assessment.

There was no surprise that Tu Li's name appeared on the list.

It will soon be the last exam [Ask Mood State], and the exam room is still at Yunhai University.

Asking the state of mind is actually a top-level large-scale illusion spell. Every time it was used in the past, only in the examination room of Yunhai University, the conversion of aura consumed per second into money was calculated in units of thousands of words.This does not include the cost of the eighteen first-class monks who need to maintain the formation. Every time they ask the state of mind assessment, the Immortal Administration Bureau will bleed a lot. Just keep an acquiescing attitude.

There are 109 candidates taking part in the mood test at Yunhai University this year, which is the largest number among all the test rooms. Each candidate will be supervised by an examiner throughout the process. The assessment results are judged by the state of mind system. The examiner is only responsible for supervision and not for scoring.

An hour before the mood test, a large group of people had already stood in front of the network waiting for the live broadcast to start.

Tu Li walked into the examination room, and in front of him was a neat row of white oval machines, as tall as a person, like an egg that was cut in half from the middle, and inside was a space just enough for one person to lie down, flickering. With a golden-red streamer.

She found her location according to the number on her card.

Tu Li's invigilator is a woman with a kind face and a dignified temperament. Her neat black hair is tied into a beautiful bun behind her head. She wears a well-tailored professional attire, and her gestures are clean and neat.

"It's a new technology just used this year. Combining illusion with holographic simulation can save 65% of the cost, and from the holographic cabin to the state of mind, no matter what happens in the state of mind, it can ensure the candidates' physical and mental health in the real world." The sea of ​​consciousness will not be affected, and the holographic cabin will also provide nutrient solution and aura according to the physical condition of the candidates." After the invigilator finished the introduction, he routinely reminded the examination precautions and safety instructions.

"When you enter the state of mind, all your memories will be temporarily sealed. In the state of mind, all your actions, right and wrong, good and evil, merits and sins, will be evaluated and reported by the state of mind system."

"The assessment time is about to begin. Please enter the holographic cabin after verifying your identity. Fellow Daoist Tu Li, I wish you a smooth assessment."

Tu Li walked into the holographic cabin, the two eggshells closed silently, and a mechanical sound [Assessment Start] came from her ears. She closed her eyes, as if she had fallen asleep and her consciousness was separated from her body.

*
Tuxian Village, Guang'an County, Longcheng.

Tuxian Village was not called Tuxian Village before, but it was renamed Tuxian Village because there was a monk named Tu in the village.

Tu Li is five years old and lives in the east of Tuxian Village.

The skinny little Tu Lishu, who is less than one meter tall, dragged a log twice her size into the yard with great difficulty. His palm-length withered yellow hair was tied into a ponytail, following her movements Shake slightly.

"boom!"

At least one hundred catties of wood fell onto the open space in the yard, making a piercing muffled sound and splashing waves of dust.

"Cough cough cough...Third grandma, I brought the firewood back!" Tu Li's face was soaked in sweat and dust, and her facial features could hardly be seen clearly. She yelled loudly to the main room, her voice was somewhat childish, "Today I'm done with my work, can I go play?"

"Play and play! You are a fucking girl, you want to play every day! You haven't washed your clothes yet, hurry up and wash them by the river!" An elderly woman yelled angrily in the main room.

Tu Li wiped off her sweat, her little face wrinkled into a ball.

Even though her natural strength was no less than that of an adult, it was not a short distance to walk home from the mountain carrying such a heavy log. At this time, her back was sore and her shoulders were red and soaked in sweat. It was hot and painful.

Now she just wants to go to the river to take a bath, and then fish and play.

Tu Li was dissatisfied and said, "Third Grandma, don't you have a washing machine? Why do you have to go to the river to wash clothes?"

"You delicious, lazy girl! Doesn't the washing machine use electricity? The water by the river is clean and free. You eat so much every day, and you are asked to do a job and push back and forth! Pooh!" A thin old woman rushed angrily. When he came out, his white hair was tied back in a mess, revealing a face with shriveled cheekbones and protruding cheekbones, and a pair of old and cloudy eyes staring fiercely at Tu Li.

"Hurry up and wash the clothes, water the vegetables when you come back, and feed the chickens and ducks...you don't eat tonight if you don't finish your work!"

Holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand, she scolded and gnawed, and after a while, melon seeds were thrown on the clean ground.

Tu Li's dust-covered eyebrows stood up, endured and endured, and picked up the side broom to clean the melon seeds.

The third grandma leaned on the threshold, eating melon seeds and watching her sweep the floor, "After sweeping, don't forget to wash your clothes. Humph, eat what I have and use what I have. How dare you be disobedient, what a white-eyed wolf!"

In summer, Tuxian Village is very hot, and the third grandma thought it was too hot, so she cursed a few dirty words, turned around and went back to the room to turn on the air conditioner.

After Tu Li finished sweeping the floor, she went to get the dirty clothes.

Suddenly, she stopped moving, and stood there quietly, her ears pricked up with several red marks scratched by the branches.

A few meters away and two walls away, Tu Li still clearly heard the words of the third grandma inside who was eating melon seeds and complaining to the third grandpa.

"The patriarch hasn't paid me for three months. Don't let us raise this little catastrophe for nothing! There's so much to eat and she's asked to do more work, but she's even more obedient than raising a dog!"

"Keep your voice down..."

"Whisper, I'm not wrong! A little calamity that even my own parents despise and refuse to want! It's not that we two old bastards are merciful and willing to raise her to feed her. This little calamity has long since Starved to death! Ungrateful little white-eyed wolf!"

"Anyway, she is also the patriarch's own daughter..."

"The patriarch didn't regard this disaster star as his daughter, and wished he could die outside. The promised 50000 yuan a month has not been paid in the third month. If I don't give the money, I will drive the little disaster star out to starve to death. she!"

"Hmph!" Tu Li threw down a basket of dirty clothes, ran to the yard, picked up the thick log, and left in a hurry.

People in the room were still cursing.

Tu Li carried the wood and walked towards the town. She heard from people in the village that there was a pharmacy in the town that bought wood with a slight aura in the village and used it to burn furnaces for alchemy. Such a thick piece of wood could at least be sold Each cost tens of dollars, the big steamed buns in the town cost one yuan each, and the stewed pork cost five yuan each, which was enough for her to eat.

Hmph, don't try to starve her to death.

It takes about 20 minutes to drive from Tuxian Village to the town. Although Tuli is small, she has strong legs and fast legs and can walk there in less than an hour and a half.

But today she is carrying a log that is thicker than two of her, and it takes at least three hours to walk.

Tu Li was still carrying it at the beginning, but she dragged it when she had no strength left. The hot sun was shining on the top, her whole face was flushed red with bean-sized beads of sweat rolling down her face, and she was out of breath.

But Tu Li was lucky. Halfway through the walk, he met an uncle from the village who was driving a tricycle to the town.

Tuxian Village has long been used to Tuli, the child adopted by Tu Sanpo's family. Although he is young, he is a strong and ruthless person.

The uncle dropped by and sent Tu Li to the pharmacy in the town.

Tu Li took out two fifty cents from her pocket, which was all her property.As a five-year-old with no source of pocket money, the money I usually earn from picking mushrooms and medicine in the mountains has to be handed over to Sanpo Tu, and I managed to secretly save some pocket money for her to buy sugar and stewed pork. .

It's not easy to have one dollar left.

The uncle was helpless and funny, but she knew Tu Li's temperament, so she still took the two fifty cents, her whole body was scorched red and hot, and her clothes were repeatedly wet with sweat.But the two pieces of money that he took out from his pocket were dry and cool, and when he touched them, he felt a sense of cold comfort in his heart.

"You child, you think a lot and worry a lot at a young age, be careful not to grow tall." The uncle sighed helplessly.

Tu Li smiled and waved at him, dragging the wood into the pharmacy: "Boss, I'm here to sell things!"

But the wood with weak aura was 103 cents a catty, and the 51.5 catties of firewood was replaced by 52. The boss generously rounded up a round number for Tu Li and gave her [-] yuan.

The owner of the pharmacy couldn't see that he was waist-high, and Tu Li, who was counting money happily, said, "Little girl, no matter how strong you are, you are still a child. A child is carrying such a heavy log, and the sun is so hot outside. , Be careful that your body can’t hold it.”

"No, I just need to eat enough! I have great strength and can't run out of strength!" Tu Li proudly raised her dirty face, held the money in one hand, and patted her chest with the other, "My My good friend Jiaojiaoyue said, as long as I keep working and exercising, my strength will become stronger and more capable, and I can eat as many steamed buns and braised pork as I want in the future!"

Leaving the pharmacy, Tu Li walked to a shop that sold braised pork and northern steamed buns.

Tuxian Village is a village in the south, and the staple food is rice.However, Tu Li especially likes the big steamed buns and stewed pork made by the owner of this shop. Put the delicious pork belly in the steamed buns and take a bite. It's absolutely delicious!

Ever since the first time she passed out from starvation at the entrance of the stewed meat shop without eating because of a day's work, the boss gave her a steamed bun with a piece of stewed meat sandwiched between them, and Tu Li fell in love with this taste.It's much more delicious than the boiled cabbage mixed with rice cooked by the third grandma. As long as you save enough money, Tu Li will definitely go to the town to have a good meal.

Tu Li ate eight steamed buns and eight yuan of fist-sized stewed meat in one go, and spent three yuan on a bottle of soda for the remaining four yuan, her belly bulged slightly.

I feel the warmth in my stomach. This kind of warmth is different from being scorched under the scorching sun. It is very comfortable.

Tu Li felt that her strength had returned, and she could carry three more logs, but seeing that the sky was getting dark, she gave up the idea.

Tomorrow, I will go to the back mountain to cut firewood and dig herbs. I hope it will rain tonight, and I can dig mushrooms tomorrow... After the spiritual energy of this world is revived, everything will grow vigorously and the plants will be dense. As long as there is no destructive felling, you can do whatever you want Cut you to pick.

It will never happen that hundreds of years ago, digging an orchid on the mountain and living a very good life.

At the appointed time, Tu Li went to the appointed place to find the tricycle uncle, and returned to the village to pay another one yuan for the fare.

Tu Li didn't go home, she didn't wash the dirty clothes, didn't do any work, and dragged the cut wood to the town to sell, the third grandma would be very angry, even if she couldn't hit her, she would keep scolding her until the end It's very noisy until I'm out of breath.

After Tu Li was three years old, she refused to be beaten obediently by the third grandma because it hurt too much.After the age of three, every time the third grandma wanted to beat her, Tuli's short legs ran faster than the four-legged dog Rhubarb, and the third grandma couldn't catch up no matter how hard she tried, she could only yell at her from behind.

It doesn't hurt to scold, just scold casually.

Little Tuli is fearless.

But today Tu Li is very tired and sleepy, she just wants to sleep, the third grandma is too noisy, she should sleep and go back tomorrow.

It was completely dark, and only an outline could be barely seen.Tu Li was not affected at all, and skillfully climbed up a big tree not far from home, lay down in the old place, and took out a small package from the branch in the dark. Inside was a homemade pillow, and the pillow was hers. The leaves of the trees picked from the mountains are dried and smell a fragrance, and they can also prevent mosquitoes.

The pillow was wrapped with a thin quilt, which was thrown away because it was too torn. Tuli was dug out from the garbage dump, washed clean, soaked in anti-mosquito herbs, and dried in the sun. It also has a faint herbal smell. Mosquitoes, snakes and ants.

Tu Li lay down comfortably. The position where she was lying down happened to be a depression, and her five-year-old thin body just fit into it, so she didn't have to worry about turning over and falling from the tree.

This is the secret base she found with great difficulty.

Before she was three years old, the third grandma threatened Tu Li not to give her food, but she didn't dare to resist.

Before the age of four, as long as the third grandmother threatened to drive her out of the house, if she had no place to live, she would be dragged and eaten by wild beasts in the mountains, and Tu Li would be terrified.

After she was four years old, Tu Li discovered this secret base, and she was no longer afraid of having no home or a place to sleep.

The cool wind of summer night blows the dense branches and leaves, making a rustling sound. The moon squeezes out from behind the dark clouds. Under the silvery moonlight, the gently swaying shadows of the whirling branches are like a mother with open arms, loving embrace lying on the child.

There were no buzzing mosquitoes, the cool wind was blowing, the air was filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and the rustling sound of leaves was like a mother singing a lullaby. Tuli slept sweetly and comfortably.
