Avenue Secret

Chapter 412
In the capital, in a high-end community with very complete security, this is the first time for Liu Li to visit his new home, although in his memory, it is not the first time that he has brought his parents to live here or in a similar place.

After all, the small county does not have enough strength to protect people, and the city god organization has their helplessness in bringing them here.

The sign at the entrance is very eye-catching, and a plaque with "Human Hero" in gold on a red background is particularly conspicuous. In Liu Li's impression, this thing is given to the family members of the dead, and the living can hardly get it. After all, it almost represents The highest achievement a mystic can achieve: he is recognized as having contributed to the continuation of entire races of humanity.

The plaque is made of high-quality mahogany, and the gold characters are also made of real gold. The material is very sufficient. The ribbon on it is also made of top-quality silk, which represents an extremely heavy honor.

Although the new home is in the community, the area is not very stingy. Even in a place like the capital where every inch of land is expensive, it has nearly [-] square meters, with upstairs and downstairs, and a multi-room design.

In the newly renovated living room, Liu Li glanced around, smiled and said to his parents: "Is this room comfortable to live in?"

"It's comfortable." Mom said, "They all respect us."

It seemed that she was talking to Liu Li, but in fact she had been looking at Zhong Qingri who was hiding behind Liu Li. Although the two had met in the hospital, they were all focused on Liu Li at that time, how could they have the opportunity to look at the future? daughter-in-law.

Liu Li held Zhong Qingri's hand, and could feel that she was very uncomfortable from the touch, as if she wanted to turn around and run away, disappearing in front of everyone.

But she couldn't escape, Liu Li was dragging her.

"She is Zhong Qingri." Liu Li introduced, and Zhong Qingri said quickly: "Uncle and aunt, hello, we have met before."

"Are you the little girl who took care of Liu Li in the hospital?" Mom asked, "You two met when you were a mystic, right? Liu Li didn't worry you very much at first, right?"

"No." Zhong Qingri said.

Liu Li's mother immediately gave up her son's greetings and asked, "What do you like to eat, and what are your taboos? I'll make you lunch."

"No, no..." Zhong Qingri looked very uncomfortable, as if she would rather go to a battle with the peak Holy Spirit than to speak like this.

Liu Li said with a smile: "She likes to eat sweets and light food, and doesn't like to eat food that is too strong or too stimulating."

The smile on my mother's face became stronger and stronger: "I just want to show you some special dishes."

Dad sat down and asked, "Xiao Zhong, what specific job do you do?"

Checked the household registration, right? Liu Li suppressed a smile and looked at Zhong Qingri seriously, as if he was also asking, what do you do for work?
Zhong Qingri thought for a moment and said, "My main responsibility now is to protect Liu Li's safety."

"Yes." Liu Li said, "She is my bodyguard."

Dad shook his head: "I watched your fight on TV, and a shot went through a building, so what kind of bodyguards do you need? You are just looking for a reason to keep her by your side in a fair manner, that is, those real Gentlemen don't care about this... By the way, no one died, do you want to pay for it?"

Liu Li thought to himself that he would not say that he was subconsciously afraid of being caught and asked for compensation, so he pretended to be forced to run away, otherwise he would float to the ground and accept an interview or something.

"No, I confirmed that there is no human breath before the fight. As for property damage, it is generally considered a battle loss. It is not the building I penetrated, but the enemy is too cunning and hid behind the building."

"Let's get to the point." Dad pulled back the words: "You have to treat her well, don't think about marrying Jurchen Lord or something just because you are rich and powerful now, those are old women."

Liu Li purposely looked at Zhong Qingri's face, thinking Dad, why don't you think about it, since I'm so powerful, what kind of cultivation can be my bodyguard?

Zhong Qingri also had a strange expression, but she seemed to be affected by the sentence "Jurchen Lords are all old women", and she choked up and couldn't speak.

After holding back for a long time, she had no choice but to say: "There are also very young Jurchen Lords. With the life span of a True Lord, every True Lord is actually like a baby."

Dad ignored this topic and said to Liu Li: "I heard that you are back. I originally wanted to say a lot, and wanted to tell you, but when I turned around, you have grown up, and you don't need to listen to our nagging anymore. There is only one thing I want to tell you, that is, don’t worry about the future, don’t treat us as a burden, like the family next door, their son just died in the battle of the Web Road, everyone is taken care of very well.”

My mother shouted in the kitchen: "Such a festive day, don't say such unlucky words, come and help!"

"Let me come." Liu Li stood up: "I'll show you my cooking skills."

At the dinner table, the family members ate the food made by Liu Li with wonderful expressions.

"How do you make it so delicious? You don't need to be the chairman of the committee, you can live as a five-star chef." Dad yelled, with no appearance, Liu Li said: "It's not the chairman, it's the committee member of the sequence planning committee." Chairman, the chairman sounds very unlucky."

My mother ate the vegetables, but said distressedly: "You didn't have the talent to cook when you were young. You must be able to cook so well. Practice makes perfect. When we were not mystics, you lived a hard life alone."

From a certain point of view, my mother was right. Half of this culinary art does come from "practice makes perfect", and the other half is the culinary skills that have been passed down.

Like Zhong Qingri, who was completely attracted by the delicious food, even though she forced herself to be as elegant as possible, she had already eaten half of the dim sum.

After lunch, Liu Li chatted with his parents for a while, talking about their experience of becoming a mystic, and sharing some of his own adventures. Of course, Liu Li omitted all the dangerous passages and described all the experiences in the He doesn't want to tell the truth, because he is afraid that his parents will worry about the control of himself or the true kings.

In the afternoon, Liu Li and Zhong Qingri finally left home. Not far away, Zhong Qingri moved his mouth closer and asked softly, "Are you going to break through to the immortal?"

Liu Li was not surprised and asked, "Can you feel this too?"

"Hmm... When you talked to them, it seemed like you were saying goodbye." Zhong Qingri said.

Liu Li laughed and said, "Idiot, it's not that you will die if you become a true king, it's just that you can no longer feel human emotions. In essence, it's just evolved into a higher level of life, without some hormones in the ordinary body. , wouldn’t I be me without adrenaline and dopamine?”

"Just like a caterpillar breaks out of its cocoon and turns into a butterfly, and a phoenix is ​​reborn from the ashes, the immortal is to cast off the mundane world and see the realm of self."

Zhong Qingri bit her lip and asked: "What if the self is 'empty'? The immortal can see that his own essence is a blank sheet of paper, the same blank sheet of paper as other beings."

"Even if the paint is shed from the painting paper, there are marks left on the white paper." Liu Li said: "Just play yourself according to these marks, and the immortal is still him."

Liu Li said: "Don't look like you're going to cry. You should understand that I'm a bit special. Although I can't do it like you, I have other possibilities."

"Are you going to become an immortal now?" Zhong Qingri asked.

"No." Liu Li said, "There are still things to do."
