After Deceiving Shizun into Dual Cultivating, I Ran Away With His Bun 76p1

Chapter 76 Part 1: The Modern World [Extra]

In the sixtieth year of his stay in the cultivation world, Lin Queli and Helan Xue found a spell to go to Lin Queli’s “hometown.” With the help of the System, after the spell was activated, they had to stay in the modern world for a full fifty years before they could return.
Lin Queli just treated it as a trip with Helan Xue.
The System used black technology to get Helan Xue a certificate and “resurrected” Lin Queli’s previous records. The two settled down like this.
Helan Xue looked around. “Is this your previous home?”
“Mmm!”
They were in a small apartment, the only thing Lin Queli’s parents had left him before they died.
The small house was not large, and the time point the System had brought the two back to was not long after Lin Queli had transmigrated, so the house did not look dilapidated yet. There were even half-eaten snacks in the kitchen.
Helan Xue stepped forward and saw that the sofa was piled with books, and the table was covered with messy stationery and notebooks. There were also messy snacks on the floor. Although it was chaotic, they were all traces of life, and one could imagine what Lin Queli’s life was like here.
Lin Queli was a little embarrassed and went forward to tidy up in a fluster. “Umm… I was preparing for an exam before I transmigrated. I was still a student!”
After returning to the modern world after so many years, Lin Queli also felt as if he were in another world as he looked around. He murmured, “So magical… it feels like I’ve returned to my young student days.”
This home was now both strange and familiar to him. He had lived here for twenty years, but he had also been away for sixty years.
Looking at the old air conditioner, television, kitchen utensils, and other furniture, Lin Queli actually felt as novel as Helan Xue.
Helan Xue rubbed the back of his head. “A’Li has always been like a child.”
This was also what surprised Helan Xue. He didn’t expect that no matter how many years had passed, Lin Queli was still as lively as when they first met. Now, even Helan Liyu was more mature than Lin Queli.
And a cultivator’s appearance changed slowly. When Lin Queli and Helan Liyu stood together, it was hard to say who was the father.
Lin Queli gave a dry laugh and scratched his head. “This is all Shizun’s fault…”
To be honest, being spoiled by Helan Xue and living without a care in the world, who can grow up!!
Lin Queli said with a smile, “Aiya, let’s not talk about those things first. Let me show my shi… brother around and introduce him!”
Lin Queli tirelessly explained the home appliances to Helan Xue one by one, how to turn on the television, how to use the microwave, what the refrigerator was for… to Lin Queli’s surprise, he had said so much, but Helan Xue had learned it all in one go.
“Wow…” Lin Queli exclaimed. He had done volunteer work at a welfare home before and had spent a long time teaching the elderly there how to turn on the television. He didn’t expect…
“I’ve already used the mentality of teaching my grandparents, but I didn’t expect brother to be even smarter than me…”
Is this what it means for a smart person to be smart everywhere?
Helan Xue raised an eyebrow. “Grandparents?”
Lin Queli gave a dry laugh. “Aiya, what I mean is… um… brother, your age in the modern world is considered a living fossil!”
But…
Lin Queli looked at the man before him.
The System had given Helan Xue the most basic clothes, a white suit shirt with black pants. Unlike Helan Xue’s usual loose robes, this set of clothes perfectly outlined the man’s tall figure. His long white hair had become short hair, and with his golden eyes, he had a bit of a mixed-blood delicacy.
So good-looking…
Lin Queli grinned. “Brother, let’s go to sleep.”
Helan Xue tapped Lin Queli. “What are you thinking in that little head of yours again?”
“Heaven and earth as my witness, I’m not thinking about anything!” Lin Queli put his hands on his hips and said righteously, “I-I’m preparing to teach you how to use a mobile phone in bed!”
“A mobile phone?” Lin Queli had roughly explained it before he came. Helan Xue asked, “Why must a mobile phone be taught in bed?”
“Because… scrolling through your phone in bed before you go to sleep is a modern person’s sense of ritual. You’ll understand in the future!”
But now there was another problem. Lin Queli didn’t have an extra mobile phone, so he had to buy one for Helan Xue.
Lin Queli sighed and opened his passbook. The money he had saved from working part-time before he transmigrated was almost gone, and he was reluctant to bring back the points. Then he had to work even harder!
Lin Queli patted Helan Xue’s shoulder. “From now on, I’ll support you!”
Helan Xue said, “Before I came, I discussed it with your system. I pawned some antiques and magical tools, and the system said that the silver obtained has been deposited in a modern bank.”
“?!”
【That’s right, Host! I’ll send you your old man’s bank account number and password right away! Hehe, isn’t Da Zhuang very useful?】
“…”
Amazing.
And after seeing Helan Xue’s passbook, Lin Queli almost fainted.
My god!!!
“Did you sell the Myriad Sword Sect?!”
Helan Xue thought for a moment. “It’s just a few magical tools. How is it? Is it enough for us to use?”
“…Sob, sob, sob.”
What do you think!!
Lin Queli sobbed. Why didn’t that dog-bitch Da Zhuang give him some money!
【I asked, Host! You said it was more cost-effective to use the points in the cultivation world!】
【But now there’s no need to exchange, right? The money the Immortal Venerable has prepared is enough for you to live two lifetimes! You don’t even have to work~】
“No… I still have to work.”
Lin Queli wiped his tears.
This was also his and Helan Xue’s plan—to come to the modern world to learn knowledge and bring it back.
The time point the System had brought the two back to was after Lin Queli had transmigrated, so Lin Queli had returned to his life before he had transmigrated—final exams.
Lin Queli sat up with a start from his deathbed. Doesn’t that mean his final exams are the day after tomorrow?!
“Change of plans!” Lin Queli looked at the time—eleven o’clock at night. There was still hope!
“I can’t cuddle with you tonight. I have to cram for the exam!”
Lin Queli first explained the basic use of the mobile phone to Helan Xue, then ran to the coffee table in front of the sofa and frantically opened his books. After reading a few pages, his expression became more and more desperate.
“…”
What kind of gibberish is this.
—After sixty years, he had forgotten! everything!
Helan Xue sat down beside Lin Queli and coaxed him, at a loss for whether to laugh or cry, “Don’t panic. You’ve cultivated for decades. A cultivator’s memory is not like a mortal’s. You’ll slowly remember after you read it a few more times.”
“Oh… sob, sob, sob—”
