Half past five in the afternoon.
During this season, the sky is blue and the warm winter sun casts bright sunlight.
Xu Fei held an unlit cigarette in his mouth and pressed the left mouse button heavily.
After sending Leiyin's translation to Xiaotao's mailbox, the work was completed.
I stretched myself and looked out the window. It's a rare good weather. Everything will go well today. Haha.
From starting work in the morning to having a fulfilling day now, he was a little nostalgic for the time when he used to go to work.
"Huh?" Xu Fei shook his head and quickly got rid of this boring thought.
I'm sick, I miss going to work, I want to be the king of the house! I don’t want to work part-time anymore in this life!
Ding dong.
Leiyin, who was meditating with her eyes closed on the sofa, opened her eyes and glanced at the phone screen next to her.
"Fei...the royalties...received..."
"Ah, so fast?" Xu Fei was shocked.
It had only been two minutes since the document was sent, even though Qiu Guo had said before that there was no need for monthly settlement on Leiyin's part.
But it stands to reason that in the fastest case, Xiaotao should first send it to the R&D and commercial departments for inspection, and then notify the finance department.
Toot toot.
A text message also came from Xu Fei's cell phone. When he opened it, it turned out to be Xiao Tao.
'Brother Fei, are you shocked? From now on, call me the little Taotao who makes quick money (=^ω^=). '
'Are you curious about how it's so fast? Mr. Qiu said that as long as Sister Leiyin translates well in the future, if the accountant has not finished get off work, she will directly release the loan. If problems are found later, she will make changes~'
"Another sick one."
Xu Fei twitched the corners of his mouth twice, replied with a perfunctory 'thank you', and put away his phone.
"Fei...what do you want to eat?"
Leiyin walked over slowly, fiddling with her phone with one hand.
Xu Fei raised his eyes and saw that it was the most popular food ordering app under his crotch, so hungry!
When did Leiyin learn to use this thing? Isn’t Readings a feudal society? It’s too fast to adapt to this.
Thinking back to the previous incident of searching for her parents...Xu Fei suddenly became a little wary. This girl would be harder and harder to fool in the future.
"Leiyin, when did you learn to order food online?" Xu Fei asked curiously.
Pointing to the small flyer on the dining table, Leiyin said softly: "There is a QR code on it..."
Xu Fei looked at the dining table and blinked, wondering if it was so easy to adapt to modern life. Then if I could go to Readings in the future, would I be able to get used to it in a few days?
It was rare that Leiyin paid a salary to treat guests, so Xu Fei didn't show any pretense and said with a smile: "Then I want a bowl of mutton soup and two crumbled sesame cakes."
"Well... Fei wants three bowls of mutton soup... ten sesame seed cakes..." Leiyin's little hand began to add dishes on her phone.
Xu Fei: "???"
After ordering Xu Fei's portion, Leiyin ordered food from another restaurant for herself. She didn't like mutton very much.
Ten minutes later, two motorcycles with cute little yellow ducks on them arrived separately. The delivery boy was surprisingly efficient.
Looking at the broth and dishes on the dining table, Xu Fei looked confused.
"Fei...eat as much as you can...you may not be able to eat for the whole next day..." Leiyin urged, taking the initiative to put a piece of fried tenderloin into Xu Fei's bowl.
Xu Fei thought for a moment and nodded, then started stuffing food into his mouth.
I thought to myself that it was probably the so-called mental disorder. If you were completely insane, you would definitely not know how to take the initiative to eat.
"By the way, how do you destroy the lock between the eyebrows? Should I use a chainsaw? Or I can borrow a cutting machine or an excavator from A'Zhu's house."
Xu Feihun asked nonchalantly. After the torment of Haihaisuo last time, he is now a very experienced man.
If the strength of the lock was similar to last time, he was confident that it would be done within an hour. At worst, he would just ask Brother Xiong to help operate the excavator and smash it. He really wouldn't believe it.
"No need...I'll help you...just cut it open..." Leiyin thought for a moment and explained softly.
There were some costs and risks in doing so, but after thinking about it, she decided to prioritize improving Xu Fei's abilities.
"Aren't the shackles of the human body only something you can touch?" Xu Fei asked.
Leiyin pushed a bowl of pickled cabbage and fish soup in front of Xu Fei, and while explaining it, she didn't forget to urge him to eat more.
After staring at the other person and drinking half a bowl, he continued: "Only the frown between the eyebrows... is special..."
"I said before... there are eight shackles in the human body... that limit the connection channels between oneself and the outside world, mind and body, spirituality and matter."
"Actually... when a human race is born... there are only seven shackles that naturally occur... The eighth one, which is the eyebrow lock... is forcibly attached to the human race by external forces..."
While eating, listening to Lei Yin's unskilled explanation, Xu Fei probably understood.
According to the ancient documents of Leitings, the human race is distributed in many worlds and planets, and was originally a large ethnic group in this vast multiverse.
But three billion years ago, something happened to the entire ethnic group.
According to the space coordinates on the Earth Star, it should be that in the multidimensional space around the Ziwei Star Territory, the human race and the hostile forces at that time launched an unprecedented war.
After the long war, it ended with the defeat of the human race. The remaining people scattered and fled to various parts of the universe, and Reddings' human race was one of them.
Maybe it's to prevent the human race from rising again.
But from the moment they fled, the hostile forces placed a shackle on their bloodline and collective consciousness, known as the Ajna lock, and this continued from generation to generation.
Although it sounds tragic and magnificent, it is also the deeds of my ancestors.
But Xu Fei didn't have much emotion in his heart, mainly because three billion years was too far away, and he couldn't empathize without having experienced it in his own shoes.
And compared with the people in the 'story', they themselves are too small. It sounds like ants watching an elephant fight, and there is no room for imagination.
The main function of the eyebrow lock is to limit the ability to perceive shapes, sounds, smells, tastes, and touches, which are the five basic human sense organs.
Once the shackles are opened, the five senses will be greatly enhanced, but of course these are not the most important.
The sixth sense, called consciousness, is to feel the existence of all things through consciousness. It is precisely because of the limitation of the eyebrow lock that ordinary humans cannot perceive the free energy around the body through consciousness, because energy cannot be detected through the basic five senses.
For example, after Xu Fei unlocked the seabed lock, he could only vaguely sense it.
That's why Leiyin said that if you want to learn swordsmanship and magic from her, you need to break at least two shackles.

"Fei...do you understand...unlocking the eyebrows will be accompanied by pain..." Leiyin asked worriedly.
Xu Fei listened half-comprehensively, nodded calmly and said: "In short, you can help me cut off the shackles, and then I will lose my mind for a period of time."
"Um……"
Grinning, Xu Fei in turn comforted Leiyin and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. At worst, you can just stay in the room in a daze for a day and it's over. Treat it as a nap."
Isn't it just like being drunk all day? What a big deal.
