Chapter 002: Teacher Cao's Heartbreak

Alright, we are down to the last four poses, and it is essential to find the key to coordinating them with our breathing. In this way, the seventy-two forms will be fully learned; however, performing all the movements continuously will take about four to five hours! It would be great if I could reduce my sleeping time a bit. As Zhou Lie thought this, he followed the beautiful coach in learning, his muscles slowly contracting with the prolonged breaths, and occasionally, as his skin twitched casually, a few drops of sweat would break free, forming a thin mist that dispersed into the air.

Alright, are you still in the mood to tease me? What does Shasha really mean? I am Professor Cao Hongbin, teaching agricultural machinery at a polytechnic university. Please give me your WeChat.

At this moment, Zhou Lie's feelings are beyond description; an antique from seven hundred years ago actually made him answer the phone. Could it be the ghost of his ancestors playing tricks?

I... I took a deep breath and said into the phone: "My name is Zhou Lie."

Wan Sheng is fifteen years old this year and is a resident of Kaiyuan Village, Yuanquan Town, Yangliu City, Donghai Province

Zhou Lie scratched his head vigorously and couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"

Zhou Lie? Haha, your name is quite ordinary, little brother-in-law

Indeed, it is like this. Damn it, the decryption was discarded, and the password is our birthday. I, I actually experienced a breakup, and it was a complete and utter breakup. How cruel, not even leaving me a glimmer of hope for reconciliation. The man's voice trembled uncontrollably and was somewhat hysterical

The phone shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, which school are you from, you little brat? Have you watched too many fantasy dramas? If this phone isn't yours, send it to the Polytechnic University, and I'll transfer you 800 yuan via WeChat, which is better than you selling it second-hand."

Zhou Lie felt a sense of bewilderment, as if he had experienced a bizarre and absurd dream

"How could you not know about the Year of the White Mist?" Zhou Lie replied honestly, "It was fifteen years ago, in 693. The Chi Lin is a formidable beast shrouded in white mist, with an extremely hot body that can incinerate a person to ashes"

Upon hearing the question, the man suddenly raised his voice: "Oh my God! Must you be so harsh? A little friction shouldn't lead to a breakup, right? Let me tell you, my brother-in-law is working hard. Really, he is actively giving gifts to the school leaders. Ideally, no, he is determined to strive for success and secure the project."

Hello, the noise is quite loud

The phone fell silent for a moment, then weakly asked: "Is it true? What year is the Year of the White Mist? And what is the Red Scale? Is it a chemical accident?"

Zhou Lie had never encountered a situation like this before and did not know what to say

I... Zhou Lie felt a wave of confusion, as no one had ever mentioned that a mobile phone could be used for communication, at least not in this era where it was completely unfeasible

"Sasha, my dear, do not ignore me." The voice gradually became clearer, and it could be confirmed that it was a man speaking

The phone transmitted a voice: "Twelve pigs? Little brother, you really have a way of comforting people, but it must be grounded in reality. Right now, in our Huaxia, there are more men than women, and there are plenty of bachelors. It seems that there are even fewer women in the village, right?"

Hello, thank goodness, Sasha, you finally answered the phone. I called over a hundred times and finally got through. " Accompanied by a faint hissing sound, the voice came through the phone, but it was very quiet. Zhou Lie had to lean in close to hear it clearly

Zhou Lie asked suspiciously: "Where is the University of Science and Technology? Also, there is WeChat; this phone has a box called WeChat, can it directly turn into money? How many silver coins is 800 yuan?"

At this moment, Cao Hongbin said somewhat dejectedly: "I will hang up first. In fact, I have made over 100 calls, all in self-deception. Shasha really wants to break up with me; she just doesn't want to admit her failure. I want to drink..."

Oh? Who are you? How do you have Shasha's phone?

Hearing the response from this mischievous child, Cao Hongbin felt on the verge of collapse and angrily asked, "Birthday gift for your tenth birthday? How old are you now? Surely not just ten, did you change to Shasha's SIM card?"

Shortly after, a somewhat blurry image appeared on the mobile phone, accompanied by a pleasant voice: "Welcome everyone to use the latest yoga weight loss and fat burning APP developed by Huatian Company. In this class, we will learn the Winged Pose, Horse Pose, Mountain Pose, and Prayer Pose"

There was some confusion with the sound on the phone, but I quickly realized: "Oh, I see, you are Shasha's cousin? Where is your cousin? Hurry and let your cousin answer the phone"

The man eagerly said: "I had a small disagreement with your sister. Brother-in-law, please help me out of kindness! Whatever your request may be, I will do my utmost to fulfill it in the future, alright?"

The voice was suddenly cut off, and tranquility returned to the stone cave

Zhou Lie shook his head and said: "Last time during the Year of the White Mist, many men died, so there are more women left. My father was burned to death by the Red Scale during that time, and in order for me to survive, my mother had no choice but to remarry"

Zhou Lie became particularly serious and respectfully said: "I do not have WeChat, but I know that anyone who can be called a teacher is very esteemed. This mobile phone was a gift from my mother for my tenth birthday, and it must have been obtained from the old goods market in the town. Since Teacher Cao needs this item, no matter how far the Polytechnic University is, I will definitely deliver it."

In the afternoon, Zhou Lie hurriedly had a bite to eat before continuing his grand pursuit of yoga practice, not pausing until nearly eight o'clock in the evening

Regardless, I will focus on mastering the last yoga class first

Cao Hongbin shouted: "Donghai Province? This is truly absurd, where is there a Donghai Province? Have the young people today learned to speak nonsense with a straight face? What on earth is Yangliu City? However, I do know there is a Yuanquan Town, and the Kaiyuan Cave is located near Yuanquan Town, which is a national scenic area. Don't tell me your village is acting like the overlord of a national scenic area, charging arbitrary fees? I really despise you village bullies who create chaos."

In the past, one would be grateful if the battery level reached 10% after charging. However, his expression quickly fell; having completed the course, what use is there for so much battery power?

Zhou Lie wiped his sweat and felt that the man's mental state was not normal. He casually said: "A man should not worry about wives and concubines. You can come to our village, where there are several widows at the village entrance, and even more unmarried women. However, the bride price cannot be less than twelve pigs, and adding several dozen silver coins would make it even more respectable"

This remark deeply hurt Zhou Lie; someone who calls themselves a teacher actually does not know about Yangliu? That is a place he has long dreamed of going to

Hello!" Zhou Lie gathered his courage and replied in a formal tone: "This phone is inherently without a password, but all phones and products from the old era cannot be used outside; they can only be occasionally used in very special places.

At this moment, the man suddenly made a sharp turn and cried out: "Wait, it seems that Sasha's cousin does not have the surname Zhou. She, she wouldn't have intentionally deleted the phone password and photos, and then thrown the phone away, would she?"

To his utmost surprise, the mobile phone battery actually reached an unprecedented sixty-five percent

The man remains undeterred, wanting to retrieve his phone. If the mischievous child does not agree, it may be Shasha's cousin.
