Su Qing stared at him for a while, then nodded, then went to take a look, and handed the key and lock to the little fat man.

Meng Hang stepped forward and locked the courtyard door, "Qingqing, don't take the key with you when we go out. Let it go to my house. My grandma is always at home."

Su Qing thought about it, don't lose the key, and nodded in agreement.

Meng Hang ran home and dropped off the keys, and came back in less than a minute.

Pretending to be cool, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go, Qingqing, my brother is holding you." The little fat man stretched out his hand to Qingqing.

"I'll go by myself, I don't need you to hold me." Su Qing coolly refused, took small steps, and walked forward.

The little fat man blinked his eyes inexplicably. What happened? Qingqing's temper has also changed since she could talk. She was so cute before, so she said what she said.

I had no choice but to follow him quickly, "Qingqing, you don't know the road, just follow me. I've promised you that I won't carry you on my back when you can't walk anymore."

The little fat man was just teasing her. He could still carry the three-year-old Qingqing. He was the eldest brother, so why would he ignore his little sister.

Su Qing was an old lady in her previous life, and she would not talk or laugh with children. It was not in line with her personality. She ignored everything Meng Hang said, with a stern face and no expression at all, and her eyes were as cold as water as she looked in front of her.

The little fat man was used to her being like this. Originally, Qingqing didn't speak and kept talking by herself.

She seems to know that Su Qing doesn’t know anything and has never been out. Everything she sees must be explained to her in detail, whose house it is, what it does, where it leads to, and whose fruit is delicious. .

Su Qing felt that although the little fat man was a bit talkative, he was pretty good and allowed her to understand more about the surrounding environment.

In her previous life, Su Qing was an out-and-out homebody who would never go out unless necessary. Therefore, she was very weak and had very few opportunities to go out and walk.

People in Shanquan Village are just the opposite. They like to walk wherever they go. This is also because people in the village make a living by farming and it is a mountainous area. They don’t have to go out to far places, so everyone likes to walk when they need to load goods before driving the electric car at home. car.

Although Meng Hang is fat, his walking endurance is okay, but Su Qing is far behind.

The little body of just three years old had not been out much at all, and the short legs had not yet been developed. When he walked outside the village, he walked slower and slower, and gradually he could no longer move.

Meng Hang turned around and found that Su Qing was not leaving. He stopped and asked:

"Qingqing, why don't you leave? We are still far away from the foot of the mountain."

"I can't walk anymore. If I had known it was so far, I wouldn't have gone. We'd still dig wild vegetables nearby. I see there are a lot of wild vegetables in the field."

"Oh, what's the point of the field? It's all weeds, but the woods are more fun and full of small animals."

Su Qing looked at him sideways. There were many snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Girls were afraid of snakes, and she was no exception.

"Forget it, let me carry you on my back. You only weigh about ten kilograms. I can run forward while carrying you on my back."

Although Meng Hang is only ten years old, his body is very stocky. He is already over one meter tall, and his talent is not bad. He is now at the level of a first-order warrior. It is no problem to run around with a three-year-old child on his back.

Su Qing thought for a moment. Anyway, it was because she was familiar with the environment. Since someone was willing to carry her, of course she could, so she nodded.

Meng Hang squatted down, and Su Qing lay on top of him. Meng Hang picked her up and continued walking forward, constantly saying:

"The mountain near our village is just the poorest mountain range in Meng Yuexing. It is not rich in products, has few elixirs, and not many exotic beasts, but it still supports our entire village."

"There is nothing we can do. We have low talents and are too poor to learn more advanced martial arts and various skills. People in the town are living better than us.

They rarely grow synthetic food. Every household grows energy crops, which is much more abundant than in our village. The students in the school who can attend the intermediate class are all children from the town. Most of the children in our village will return to the village after attending the junior class. Got into farming. "

From Meng Hang's conversation, Su Qing learned that although Meng Yuexing was a primitive planet, it was not as backward as Shanquan Village.

There are also high-rise buildings in towns and cities, and people's living standards are much better than them.

If you want to continue your studies, you need to be rich and talented. The empire will train you for free.

Shanquan Village has not seen a child with talent above the fifth level for hundreds of years, so they have never even left Meng Yuexing, let alone the more prosperous Bichen Star. Only Li Mubai's family would crazily want to go back.

Hey, just like some children in those impoverished mountainous areas on earth, they only know how to herd sheep to earn money, marry a wife and have children. At least Meng Hang and the others still have a few years of education.

But in the previous life, when Su Qing was old, education was already very good. Although remote areas were not as good as big cities, illiteracy was eradicated, which can be considered a lot of progress.

"Meng Hang, what do you study in school?"

"Ah!" Meng Hang, who was talking happily, was shocked when he heard Su Qing's question. It was surprising that Qing Qing would take the initiative to talk to him.

"We have learned a lot. Not to mention the basic courses of mathematics, Chinese, and history. The most important ones are the main courses of alien beasts, spiritual plants, medicine refining, weapon refining, and martial arts. These are the basis for our future survival. It’s hard to learn,

The most I can do is pass three subjects: exotic beasts, elixirs, and martial arts. I know nothing about refining medicine or weapons. Anyway, I can graduate if I pass three subjects. As long as I study for three years, I will be free. "

As a child, learning is the biggest worry. No child is born to like learning.

Su Qing's heart suddenly moved, "Then can you teach me?"

"Ah, you want to learn?"

Meng Hang couldn't understand why a little Su Qing wanted to study. Studying was so boring. When she got older, she would have plenty of time to study after going to school.

"Well, when you have nothing to do, just teach me. You can learn anything."

The light in Su Qing's eyes kept flickering. Books were the fastest way to understand the world. It was a good opportunity to let Meng Hang teach her.

After two days at home, I didn’t see books, newspapers, TV, radio or other sources of information.

She suspected that the LCD screen hanging on the wall was a TV, but her grandmother had never turned it on, and she did not dare to speak for fear of making a mistake.

The little fat man didn't know what Su Qing was thinking, so he agreed casually:

"Okay, I will teach you what you want to learn when we get back."

"Exotic beasts, elixirs, history, or you can show me all the books."

"Ah, then you might as well go to my house and watch. You can save me the trouble and you can watch it directly on my learning machine."

Su Qing asked in surprise: "What is a learning machine?"

"It is issued by the school to students for study, including all courses. Every student has it. After graduation, he must turn it in and return it to the school.

Children from wealthy families are not used to using public facilities and dislike the old ones with few functions, so they buy new ones for themselves. The children in our village all have poor families and can only use free ones. "

As the two of them talked, time flew by quickly, and they didn’t feel tired even while walking.

Soon they arrived at the foot of the mountain. There was a large forest with many man-made paths leading to the mountain.

I can't blame Meng Hang for liking to play here. There are all kinds of trees at different heights, wild flowers and vegetables, mushrooms and fungus, wild fruits, and a stream not far away. It is indeed a fun place.
