Chapter 18 Wood Shadow

Lin Zhendong hurriedly put out the flames, looked at the messy living room, and shook his head helplessly.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and a tough voice sounded: "Dongzi, what are you doing! The thick smoke has set off the fire alarm!"

"Grandpa Li!" Lin Zhendong responded hurriedly. Just as he was about to open the door, he hurriedly put the box of gold coins into the storage space.

Opening the door, a lean old man with gray hair walked in directly, glanced briefly, and knocked Lin Zhendong on the head rudely.

"You idiot! I have warned you since you were young not to practice at home. You have to go to an open place or a special practice room to practice. Look, are you practicing fire-based exercises? Look at what you are doing at home.

!”

"Yes, Grandpa Li, I don't dare anymore, but I couldn't hold it back for a while." Lin Zhendong scratched his head with an embarrassed look on his face.

The old man took out his walkie-talkie and said, "It's okay, the fire alarm has been lifted."

Then he patted Lin Zhendong on the head: "Although you have already joined the job, you are still preparing for the exam. Now your task is to concentrate on preparing for the exam and get good results, otherwise your aunt and your aunt will be embarrassed by you.

Yes, it makes people gossip behind my back!"

Lin Zhendong's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Grandpa Li in front of him. Seeing the look in his eyes, he nodded sharply: "I understand, Grandpa Li, don't worry. I will definitely get a score that will shock everyone in the college entrance examination!"

Grandpa Li was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "It's good if you have this confidence, so that it won't be difficult for your aunt and your aunt, and no one can gossip behind their backs. Okay, please pay attention and concentrate on preparing for the exam.

"As he said that, he patted Lin Zhendong on the shoulder and left with his hands behind his back.

After watching Grandpa Li leave, Lin Zhendong closed the door.

Lin Zhendong knew what the words of the doorman Grandpa Li meant. Wasn't it because his aunt and uncle had given him, a newcomer, a three-month holiday to attract gossip?

Of course, this gossip is just behind the scenes and has not yet been widely publicized.

I am a senior high school student preparing for the exam. Just asking for leave to prepare for the exam can stop the rumors.

After all, no one can guarantee whether their juniors will join the workforce at the age of 18 and need to prepare for exams.

With Lin Zhendong as an example, it will be easier for those who come after him.

So actually this is nothing.

But Lin Zhendong discovered that everyone in the district who he thought was friendly to him was not as good as he thought.

Otherwise, such gossip would not have fallen into Grandpa Li's ears.

But if you think about it carefully, you can understand that this is a matter of course.

Every unit has cliques, and as soon as I joined the job, I became the clique of my aunt and uncle.

People who stare at the position of aunt and aunt naturally regard themselves as enemies.

When I was a family member, there was no conflict of interest at all with people in my work unit. Of course, everyone would show friendly gestures.

After all, what's the point of saying it's good? It's not serious.

But as soon as he joined the unit, he immediately took sides and couldn't help but get involved in the factional fights.

At this time, there is no need to sell it, because my status has changed from a family member to a colleague, and there is a possibility of a conflict of interest.

Although he understood this, Lin Zhendong was still a little unhappy.

Unfortunately, I always thought that the district department was my base.

Now it seems that he is only supported by a faction in the district.

Shaking his head and breathing a sigh of relief, Lin Zhendong began to cheer up and clean up.

Do you have a choice about taking sides? You don't have a choice. Even if your aunt and aunt don't let you take sides, you have to side with them, otherwise you're still a human being?

As for getting good grades in the college entrance examination to bring glory to my aunt, aunt and the others?

Lin Zhendong showed a proud smile.

After being implanted with that weird chip when I was 12 years old, [photographic memory] is just a basic skill.

That is to say, there is no one in the entire district who is of the same age as him. In the whole class of the school, he is the only child from the district. He does not dare to be arrogant, so he puts his grades in the first rank, and does not dare to directly rush to the first place.

Of course, there is also the reason why I don’t want to be watched by the teacher, so I am forced to participate in numerous competitions all day long, so that I have no time to go shopping for treasures.

Otherwise, hum, it will make your eyes dizzy!

Therefore, the so-called taking three months off to prepare for the college entrance examination is actually just because I want to be lazy and get the last free time.

After all, there is no need to prepare for the exam. All high school knowledge is imprinted in my mind and I have not forgotten it at all.

Well, if I really want to say that I am not very sure about it, it is mathematics.

This thing can't be learned by imprinting textbooks on your brain.

It is better to do more exercises and imprint all kinds of exercises in your mind to feel safe.

However, there is only one subject that needs to be reviewed, so there is plenty of time.

So under such circumstances, it is impossible for you to ask Lin Zhendong to concentrate on his review and not fiddle with the [Wood Shadow] he just obtained!

Therefore, Lin Zhendong hurriedly cleaned up the house, threw the burned furniture into a special garbage dump, grabbed a few books, and ran out.

When I passed the gate, I said hello to Grandpa Li: "Grandpa Li, I went to school to review! I may not be back for dinner. If Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen come back, please let me know."

"Okay, that's good. Just concentrate on preparing for the exam! Get good grades and dazzle them!" Grandpa Li immediately laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyesight.

He is so respectful to Grandpa Li, the doorman. One of them is the father of Li Bin, the neighbor upstairs, and the other two are retirees from the district. It is said that he was also a figure in the same field when he was young.

Anyway, there is no harm in being respectful to the guards of state units. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is not enough to describe these old guards.

Lin Zhendong hailed a car and quickly arrived at the West Bank Industrial Zone.

No way, the east coast is too prosperous and there is almost no empty space. If you want to practice, you have to come to the abandoned industrial areas on the west coast.

I got off the car anywhere, wandered around, found a quiet factory, and got into the empty factory building.

Looking at this spacious and empty place, Lin Zhendong nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his palm, and a ball of black flame immediately enveloped his palm.

With a flick, the flame flew about ten meters away, and with a thought, the cement floor cracked.

"The power is good, but the distance seems too close?"

"It doesn't consume much. One flame consumes about one percent of the energy in my body. I can recover after taking a few breaths."

"The fact that I have so much energy in my body is obviously related to the fact that I have eaten more than 20 natural and earthly treasures."

"The only pity is that half of the energy was swallowed by the chip. And I ate randomly at that time, regardless of the attributes. I just ate as much as I could. Thinking about it now, it was such a waste." Lin Zhendong smacked his lips, full of regret.

.

But I had no choice. At that time, I just wanted to acquire a skill, so how could I care about so many things?

However, in the future, do I have to continue to eat wood-type natural materials and earthly treasures to increase the power of [Wood-type Shadow], or do I need to eat other attributes?

After all, this black flame has nothing to do with the wood element.
