Probably because he had never actively controlled his abilities, the sloth raised his hand and suddenly froze.
It tilted its head, and Hei Yang and Hong Li on the side quickly asked.
"How about it?"
"Ok?"
"Wait a moment……"
The sloth looked thoughtful.
"Let me find a feeling..."
Hei Yang and Hong Li: "Huh?"
"Hey, you don't want to sleep again, do you?"
A black line was drawn on Hong Li's head: "At least finish the matter before we talk. Once the matter is finished, even if you are too lazy to live, we won't be too lazy to care about you!"
"Well……"
Hei Yang came close to Hong Li's ear and whispered a reminder.
"Didn't they say to meditate? They didn't say to sleep."
"Huh? That doesn't mean the same thing?"
Hong Li looked at Hei Yang with a puzzled look.
"When I was studying and learning, every time I would catch myself falling asleep in class, I would say...well, I'm meditating!"
"..."
Hei Yang was silent for a few seconds, then said quietly: "Classmate Hong Xiaoli?"
"What, what's wrong..."
Hong Li's face changed, and she felt panicked for no reason.
"Well, Brother Heiyang, please listen to my explanation. In fact, I..."
"What else is there to explain!"
Hei Yang snorted coldly: "You slept in class, right? You didn't listen carefully, right? Do you know that I have been waiting for you outside the school in the wind and sun, and you are actually sleeping in the room?"
"Brother Hei Yang, I was wrong!"
Hongli clasped her hands on her chest, closed her eyes and shivered.
"Xiaoli doesn't dare anymore. Brother Heiyang, please spare Xiaoli this time. Don't tell my mother..."
"Eh?"
Before she finished speaking, Hongli suddenly froze and slowly regained her composure.
"That's not right. I have grown up. I have graduated eight years ago. Why should I be afraid of you?"
"Ha, then how do I know?"
Hei Yang looked at Hong Li with a funny look on his face.
"Hurry up, Xiaoli calls you Brother Heiyang again, brother, I love hearing it!"
"Climb, climb, climb!"
Hong Li snorted softly: "No matter how big or small, just talking to your mother like this is... ah!"
"..."
Hong Li rubbed her head and glanced at Hei Yang.
"Hey, I won't argue with you little brat."
"hey-hey."
Hei Yang smiled and said nothing more.
Teacher Heiyang, who has many years of experience in training Hongli, stepped on Hongli's defense line as steadily as an old dog. Besides, his girlfriend should be anxious, but he had to coax her when she was anxious.
At this moment, Hei Yang felt that love experience +1+1+1 was popping up in his head all the time...
Of course, just like his Hongli, who knows what other girls are like?
Baiyang didn't know, and had no interest in knowing, that the petite girl beside him was enough to fill his heart, leaving no room for anything else.
Well, it's the kind that's embedded in the heart, and you can't dig it out.
"Oh, okay, I have it!"
The sloth suddenly made a sound, and yawned slightly under the gaze of Heiyang Hongli. The breath that escaped around it disappeared instantly, or it could be said that it was taken back into the body by the sloth.
"So you've been brewing for so long..."
Hei Yang showed his dead eyes: "Is it just to prepare for a yawn?"
"You don't understand, there are many highly skilled people here."
The sloth shook his head: "Do you think anyone can yawn with genuine emotion and no pretense?"
"ah?"
Hei Yang and Hong Li looked at each other.
"Ha~yawn~"*2
"You don't count."
The sloth nodded.
"You are the strong ones that I recognize!"
"Who needs your approval!"*2
"..."
"..."
After the sloth took away his magical power, the entire Tianxiang City seemed to have just woken up, yawned, rubbed its sleepy eyes, and continued to live.
The relatives of grandma and grandpa also gradually came to their senses. Grandma snatched the big spoon from her daughter's hand and asked her mother to come.
Grandpa stretched out, pushed open the door and went out of the house. He looked at the people in the courtyard who were looking at each other and said with a smile: "I'm a little lazy, but they still came."
"Well……"
Everyone looked at each other's disgraced faces and felt dumbfounded for a moment.
By the time everyone realized what happened, it was already almost one o'clock in the afternoon.
The dirt on the body needs to be cleaned, and the meals need to be bought and cooked immediately. The whole family is busy for a while, which actually adds a bit of New Year flavor.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
A group of naughty children liked to run around among the adults like this. As a result, they were so happy that they were suddenly beaten by their parents, and their faces turned pale with fright.
However, if you get beaten, you won't get beaten immediately. After all, there is a life-sustaining skill "Big New Year" to prevent the naughty kid from having his butt blossom now.
But after returning home, tsk tsk.
Thinking of the gloomy future, the naughty children who were marked by their parents finally stopped making noises temporarily and gathered together to discuss the possibility of putting steel plates behind their buttocks.
As for Xiao Huo, he just went crazy. He was very active in shouting at his elders. He was cute and sweet-mouthed. He was happily protected by the two old people as if they were treasures. They were kissed after two generations.
As for the two guys, Hei Yang Hongli, they quietly hid while everyone was busy cleaning and cooking.
From a certain perspective, laziness helped both of them, and that's not all.
"Hey, everyone's new clothes are all dirty now. It would definitely be inappropriate for me to wander around in a little white dress!"
Hei Yang Hongli sat snuggled on the branches of the towering tree, and the latter smiled mischievously.
"If this is the case, there will be no reason for Mom to blame me even if she wants to!"
Hong Li laughed proudly: "Maybe I have to compliment you a little bit. Oh, Xiao Li is really discerning and knows when to wear what clothes to show up, oh ho ho ho!"
"Ah this..."
Hei Yang said quietly: "Then didn't I do it for you in vain?"
"Hey, it's not in vain, it's not in vain."
Hong Li waved her hand in embarrassment, leaned close to Hei Yang's ear, and whispered, "I'll wear it for you to see when I get home!"
You can watch it however you want and for as long as you want! "
"Hey?"
The corners of Hei Yang's lips raised slightly, and he also leaned over and whispered: "That's really exciting for me. My Xiaoli is better for me."
"Nonsense, isn't this..."
Hongli's face turned slightly red, she clamped her legs together, and said in a lower voice: "If I don't treat you well, who else can I treat well?
Just thank Master Hongli for your kindness. You are the only one in the world who can make me like this. Who made me like you... who made me like you. "
"I will never let you down, Xiaoli."
"I know."
"Hey hey hey..."*2
"..."
The sloth was hanging upside down on a branch not far away, squinting its eyes and whispering to the two of them, making love to each other, with a pair of dead fish eyes full of speechlessness.
Who is it, where is it, why is it here?
It shouldn't be hanging upside down on the branches, it should be buried under the roots of the tree...
"Hello."
The voice of the sloth came faintly.
"You don't need to be so quiet. I'm not interested in your love talk and I'm too lazy to listen."
"Aha?"
Hong Li moved her head away from Hei Yang's shoulder, looked at the sloth and raised her eyebrows.
"Since you're too lazy to listen, why aren't you too lazy to talk?"
"That's right, why talk so much!"
The Black Yang woman sings her husband's favor, her face full of displeasure.
"To be a light bulb, you have to have the awareness to be a light bulb, okay? It's your gentleness not to disturb me, thank you!"
Sloth: "..."
"From the time I was born to now, I haven't said as many words in total as these few hours."
The sloth sighed and looked at the two men with a sad expression.
"Maybe this is the only chance I have to communicate with others in this life. Don't you want to say a few more words to me?"
"What does that have to do with us?"
Hei Yang said expressionlessly: "You chose the road yourself. If you don't want to communicate with others, then you blame us?"
"Ah this..."
The sloth felt like an arrow had hit his back.
"That's right, moral kidnapping, hurry up, hurry up!"
Hongli's husband sang and followed her, with a look of disdain on her face.
"I confronted you in court before, but you hesitated... No, you didn't say a word. Now you want to talk again. Why?"
"Ah this..."
The sloth was hit again with an arrow in the back.
"really!"
Hei Yang hummed softly: "If you want to say it, just say it. If you don't want to say it, don't say it. What do you think we are, confiding in the tree hole?
Sorry, I suggest you go find a real tree hole and whisper. The tree hole will not resist. "
"Ah this..."
The sloth was hit again with an arrow in the back.
"You're right."
Hong Li nodded.
"If you are serious..."
"Stop! Stop pricking, stop pricking..."
The sloth looked helpless.
"Prick the child again and he will turn into a hedgehog."
"Speaking of which, you know so many things even though you have been sleeping..."
Hong Li frowned and suddenly came back to her senses mid-sentence.
"Oh, I understand, let's pass on the memory, right? I understand, I understand, then it's okay!"
"So..."
The sloth said quietly: "I am a person who is born to know, and I am also a person who is born to be lazy. I just want to sleep, I just don't want to do things, I just feel tired. How can you blame me?"
"ah?"
Hei Yang frowned, waved his hand and said, "Then you go and change. Just control your nature a little bit."
"No!"
The sloth looked determined and confident.
"I will never betray laziness in my life! I really like the feeling of not thinking about anything!"
"How can you like it if you don't think about it?"
Hei Yang scratched his head, imaginary images appeared in his mind.
[Already... broken... so comfortable... no need to think about anything... give up thinking... enjoy... Black Sun... like...]
"Bah, bah, bah!"
Hei Yang shook his head vigorously. Damn it, there are too many scraps. Get out of here!
"Um?"
Hong Li seemed to feel something, and turned to look at Hei Yang with a suspicious look on her face, questioning her soul.
"Why do I feel that you are thinking of something very rude..."
"illusion."
"I wasn't sure before, but now I believe it."
"What an illusion!"
"Ah, yes, yes."
Hong Li rolled her eyes and looked at the sloth expressionlessly.
"Then there's nothing to say. You chose your own path, and you deserve it."
"Feel the same."
Black Yang looked at the sloth and pointed to the sky.
"I said, why don't you leave quickly while you can still move... No, just leave!
That little bit of anxiety won't last long, and I feel like your impact on the world is getting bigger and bigger. "
"Of course."
The sloth said matter-of-factly: "Creatures like me that enter your world through illegal means will continue to affect the surroundings as time goes by.
The higher the strength, the greater the impact on the surroundings. I am also in the Nascent Soul stage after all, right? "
"That's it..."
Hongli nodded thoughtfully.
[Hongli: Did you hear that? Look at the good things you have done. You must have influenced me. Wouldn’t your conscience hurt if you are not responsible for me? 】
[Hei Yang: Don’t be embarrassed. I was a weakling for the past ten years. What influence can I have? 】
[Hei Yang: Besides, Grandma Meng has already helped me apply for a new identity. Now I am a legal citizen traveling around the world! 】
[Hongli: Wow, after saying so much, do you mean you don’t want to be responsible? 】
[Hei Yang: Ahem, it's all my fault. It's all my fault. I take full responsibility. I sold myself to pay off the debt and pledged myself to you. Lord Hongli, please use it as you like! 】
[Hongli: That’s pretty much it. 】
"Maybe you are curious..."
The sloth suddenly spoke, a look of sorrow on his face.
"Why does lazy me still exist in this cruel world?"
"No, we are not curious at all. Laziness is a character that affects a good life. I know this very well."
Hei Yang stretched out a hand.
"That's right, we two little trash can survive until now. We are always grateful to our parents, grateful to our neighbors, grateful to the harmonious world of immortality!"
Hongli stretched out a hand.
Their hands moved closer and apart, closer and apart, like playing an accordion.
"No one understands laziness better than us!"*2
Sloth: "..."
"I guess you guys would love to hear my story?"
The sloth suddenly showed a vicissitudes of life.
"No, we don't want to!"*2
Hei Yang Hongli stared with dead eyes and refused to listen.
"That was a long, long time ago..."
Hongli: "Hey, don't you understand people's words? We don't want to hear them. Who asked you to make your own decisions and start telling stories!"
Hei Yang: "Damn it, it's time for another annoying forced dialogue plot animation. The plot is obviously nothing, but you have to let me watch it, right? Where's the skip button? I want to skip it!"
“When I was born, there were people of my own race lying around, but there was silence.
The inheritance rooted in the soul tells me that the lazier our family is, the stronger we can become. "
"Damn it, such a racial talent that makes people envious and jealous!"*2
Black sun, red glass, and lemon, some otters are born right at the end...
"At that time, my limbs were weak and it was difficult to move, so I rested instinctively. I found that I didn't need to eat because the energy I gained from being lazy was enough to sustain life."
The sloth ignored the two jealous men around him and kept talking to himself.
"Just like that, day by day, I feel that I have grown up, become stronger, and have the ability to act on my own, but I don't want to move at all. That's nice, isn't it?
Well, some members of the same race don't seem to think so. When I hear the rustling sounds, there are always some members of the same race who can't bear the loneliness and want to run, jump, communicate with other creatures, and see more of the world.
Why go against your natural instincts?
I don't understand. Why do you do unnecessary things when you just need to be lazy?
They go to eat, make friends, travel, reproduce... I don't have that kind of worldly desire.
Of course, occasionally I will open my eyes curiously and take a look... Hey, don't look at me like that, I'm a serious creature, okay! "
A tic-tac-toe popped up on the sloth's head, and he clenched his fists and roared angrily at the two guys wearing tinted glasses.
Damn it, obviously because their own heads are full of waste, do they treat it as such a guy? !
"I'll take the liberty of asking."
Hei Yang raised his hand: "Are you a boy or a girl?"
"I'm a female! Climb!"
A good-natured person like a sloth cannot resist the urge to curse.
Take a deep breath, adjust your mood, and continue talking.
"I'm so angry, damn it, where did I say it?"
"Look at it once in a while."
Hongli raised her hand to remind.
"Oh, yes, I take a look occasionally."
The sloth shook his head and continued.
"There's nothing interesting to see. A group of people of the same race who were born earlier than me are not as strong as me. They are all at a pitiful low level. At first glance, it seems that they are not diligent and lazy!"
"Why does this sound so strange..."*2
The corners of the two audience members' mouths twitched.
"Sure enough, what happened later proved that I was right."
The sloth said proudly: "Not to mention those guys who age and die because their realm has not caught up with their lifespan, let's just talk about one day in the future.
That day I was sleeping as usual, when suddenly the earth shook, the wind roared, lightning flashed and thunder - at that time I thought it was the end of the world, but later I realized that it was just two waves of monks fighting.
The impact of the aftermath caused a large number of casualties to my fellow tribesmen. If we stay at home, we will still encounter this kind of danger. So, aren’t those who go out even more dangerous? I think so.
I was blown away by the strong wind and injured, but recovered quickly.
I was blown into the lake and swallowed by a big fish without any harm.
Big fish were being hunted, and mudslides were encountered while transporting them, but I was calm and collected.
The soil dried outside my body and solidified me into a sculpture, and I was undaunted.
After I was discovered, I was put on display at the counter and said that I was a specimen of a species that had been extinct for many, many years. I didn’t bother to argue.
A group of robbers rushed in and snatched me and other exhibits away, but I was calm...
I don't care, I go with the flow, I let the torrent of the times sweep me wherever it goes, the people and things around me are changing, but I am still safe.
Many great people who are stronger, smarter, and higher in status than me will also fall for various reasons, but I survived because I don't fight or grab, and I don't have any bad intentions.
It seemed that thinking was useless and would cause me a lot of troubles, so I simply gave up thinking.
Just like that, I don't care about anything, I don't know anything, I occasionally feel itchy eyelids, and the environment is always unfamiliar when I open my eyes, I don't care.
It's like I don't know how I got here, and I don't want to think about what you will do with me. I just don't care. "
The sloth yawned, slowly curled up, his face showed fatigue again, and waved goodbye to Heiyang Hongli.
"Well, I should have said all my words in this life, and I have no regrets...
To be honest, laziness is not without all its benefits. The lazier you are, the lonelier you will be... Probably, who knows?
Well, I wish you two fellow Taoists a long-lasting relationship and a happy life...yawn...farewell..."
Under the gaze of Heiyang Hongli, the sloth fell into a deep sleep, breathing leisurely.
There have been many people or things that tried to make it anxious, but in the end there was still nothing that could be done about it.
After all, no one can win a guy who's too lazy to fight.
"Well, this guy..."
Hong Li frowned and said softly: "This guy lacks a heart. He is not interested in anything and would rather step into nothingness..."
"The world is still very beautiful, but the world in its eyes is full of trouble...although it is true."
Hei Yang smiled helplessly and made a faint sound.
"If I hadn't met you, maybe I would have closed myself off like it, and left with my parents after they died.
Even my leaving is meaningless because no one remembers and no one cares. "
"Nonsense, no ifs."
Hong Li took Hei Yang's hand and held it tightly.
“Everyone is here, you are here with me, you are with me.”
"I know."
Hei Yang shook his head and laughed.
"I just listened to the story and did the reading comprehension exercises after class."
"uh-huh."
Hong Li was noncommittal. She looked at the motionless sloth hanging upside down on the branch, speechless.
"How to deal with it? Once you fall asleep, it will start to emit aura again."
"You said it, kill it."
"Oh, then do it."
"Why don't you do it?"
"Too lazy to do anything."
"What a coincidence."
Black Yang stretched out his hand expressionlessly, wrapped the sloth in his soft spiritual power, and shook his head.
"I'm too lazy to do anything. Let's take it away first..."
"After taking it away?"
"Find a place to bury alive."
"Truth and lies."
"What do you think?"
"Tsk, tsk."
"Xiaoyang? Xiaoli? The food is almost ready! Come and eat!
Well, really, where did these two children go to play... If they don't come back, it won't be yours! "
"Hey! Mom, here it is, here it is!"
Heiyang Hongli quickly jumped off the giant branch.
"We're coming! Save two spots!"
"..."
