Chapter 2: The Journey (2)
Just as he was worried, the airflow that slowly ran between the five light balls in his body suddenly accelerated and became smooth. Correspondingly, the magnetic field centered on his body outside also accelerated its rotation, soon isolating external unstable air flows and other factors, making him feel like he was in an independent space. Even the air he breathed seemed to have been filtered, very fresh and comfortable. Suddenly, those symptoms of dizziness and tinnitus quickly disappeared, leaving Leng Bing feeling a sense of relief.
I didn't expect this technique to have such an application, and Han Lin couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine as he thought about it. Regardless of whether the technique was successfully cultivated or not, being able to make oneself comfortable was already a more effective thing. Moreover, he had never hoped to ascend to immortality like in the cultivation novels. Being able to roam freely in the world was already enough for him.
Xiao Lu also sat in the seat, when the plane took off, the centrifugal force was greater, and the plane was more turbulent. Therefore, for safety reasons, even the flight attendants could not move around casually and had to sit in their seats until the plane stabilized before they could come to provide service to the passengers.
She sat quietly, her eyes fixed on the various scenes inside the cabin, but her gaze never left that boy. For some reason, she always felt that this boy, although young, looked no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, similar to her brother's age, yet he seemed to have a very mature and attractive aura, an aura that she had never seen even in many self-proclaimed successful people.
When the plane took off, she saw that the boy's face was a bit pale and he had a slightly painful expression on his face. She knew it was a reaction to the takeoff of the plane. Many people have similar reactions. Of course, the better the plane is and the better the pilot's driving skills are, the less likely such reactions will occur.
Seeing his painful expression, Xiao Lu's heart skipped a beat, and she wished she could take some of the burden off him. However, the plane was still in its ascent phase, and she couldn't leave her seat either. Her mind was filled with anxiety until she saw his expression relax and his complexion regain its rosiness, only then did she put her mind at ease.
With eyes closed, he pondered the changes in his body and the effects of his kung fu. As there were not many people on the plane, most of them did not sit according to their assigned seats, but instead occupied the window seats. As a result, everyone sat very comfortably, with no one else beside them, making it very quiet.
Just as he was getting into it, a clear and pleasant voice came from beside his ear: "Little friend, what would you like to drink?"
She suddenly opened her eyes to find that it was the flight attendant from earlier pushing a cart of drinks towards the passengers.
For this flight attendant, the cold and icy impression was still quite good. He treated people with enthusiasm and sincerity, without the condescending attitude of some flight attendants. He returned a kind smile, looked at the drinks on the cart and said: "Give me a bottle of mineral water, thank you!"
Xiao Lu was stunned again. Don't all kids like drinking Coca-Cola and other Western soft drinks? Why would they choose mineral water?
She was afraid that the boy didn't know, or was too shy to speak up, so she picked up a bottle of Coca-Cola and waved it in front of him. Her sexy and cute long eyelashes blinked, and a hint of a lovely smile appeared on her face as she said: "There's Coke here, don't you want some?"
However, her lovely smile soon froze because the boy did not happily accept the Coke, but instead smiled and said to her: "Just mineral water is fine, thank you, I don't drink Coke much!" The words were spoken very politely, but the tone was very firm, leaving no room for hesitation.
"Give me a Coke, I like Coke, I want it!" The speaker was a middle-aged man sitting across from the cold and desolate corridor, with sunken cheeks, a lewd face, and two eyes that were eagerly sizing up Xiao Lu through thick glasses. Just one look made people feel disgusted. Fortunately, apart from his gaze being somewhat impure, there were no excessive actions or words.
These days, apart from some ruffians and hoodlums, few people dare to make improper moves in public view, especially on an airplane.
Xiao Lu reluctantly handed the Coke in her hand to the middle-aged man, and then took out a bottle of mineral water for Leng Bing Xuan. However, she felt embarrassed and muttered to herself: "You little brat, you're really ungrateful, biting the hand that feeds you." She vented all her pent-up anger at the middle-aged man on Leng Bing Xuan. But after walking just a few steps, she turned back to look at the boy's rosy face, which was so tender it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it. For some reason, her heart felt a little flustered, and her anger gradually dissipated.
After muttering to herself, she made an effort to calm her emotions and continued with her work.
However, she soon encountered new problems. On today's plane, there were actually two blonde-haired and blue-eyed foreigners, who must have returned from a tour of Changfu. But Xiao Lu didn't have the energy to guess those useless things, because she was already dizzy. The two foreigners anxiously said something to each other, but Xiao Lu couldn't understand anything except for a few individual words, and had no idea what they were saying.
Xiao Lu has just turned 18, her academic performance is not very good, and she only thought of becoming a flight attendant after failing the college entrance exam. Although during pre-job training, English training was also conducted, but those were just some simple commonly used phrases, how could they cope with the current situation? Who would have known that there would be two foreigners on this flight?
Two people, one after another, spoke a string of foreign languages that she couldn't understand, leaving her stunned. Just as she was at a loss for what to do, a heavenly voice suddenly sounded in her ear: "These two ladies said they each want a cup of coffee, and because they feel a bit dizzy and uncomfortable, they're asking if there's any medicine on the plane that can help?"
Xiao Lu was shocked to see that it was the little boy, and he could actually understand these foreign languages? She was almost stunned, her mouth wide open enough to fit a large duck egg, staring at him in utter disbelief. Who on earth had taught this child? It was truly astonishing, and compared to him, her own brother who spent all day playing around was simply useless.
Other passengers also stared at Leng Bing in amazement, seemingly feeling unbelievable. However, their eyes were filled with envy and admiration. In the 1990s when English education was not yet popular, being able to master a foreign language fluently was an extraordinary feat. Many adults couldn't do it, but here, a child had achieved it.
Foreign friends came to China and encountered problems, but no one understood what they were saying. This is really embarrassing for the Chinese people who value etiquette. Now a child has stood up, everyone feels proud, so there is also more love and support for Leng Bingxian.
Apart from that despicable middle-aged man muttering, "What's the big deal? Maybe he's just blindly guessing! What does a kid in his teens know?"
However, the people around who heard it looked at him with a strange and contemptuous gaze, as if looking at a monster. You won't be jealous of others, will you? This kind of thing doesn't have absolute certainty, who dares to blindly guess? Except for you, this pig-headed person.
Everyone stared at him, and he rubbed the back of his head with a cold expression, smiling faintly at Xiao Lu: "What's wrong? Didn't they prepare those medicines on the plane?" He himself was also puzzled, remembering that in his past life, airplanes would always have a first-aid kit, including medicine to prevent airsickness. Shouldn't these be essential? Had they not prepared for this during this period?
Xiao Lu finally came back to her senses from the shock, and replied repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I'll go get it right away!" After speaking, she even forgot to pour coffee for the two foreigners, and hurriedly rushed back.
"Cold as ice" said in English to two foreigners: "You wait a minute, the flight attendant has gone to get you some medicine, don't worry."
Two foreigners were also worried about not being able to communicate with the people around them, and it seemed that they had not expected this child to speak English. After exchanging a glance, they were overjoyed, like drowning men grasping at a straw, and immediately said to Leng Bing Han: "Oh my god, thank God, you must be an angel sent by God to save us, it's great to have you here."
Leng Bing Han completely understood their feelings at this moment, smiled and said: "Welcome to China, welcome to Sichuan. It's my honor to meet you!"
His English was learned through self-study, and without a chance to practice speaking, he relied on his exceptional memory and comprehension skills, learning from tapes. He wasn't sure how well he had learned. This was the first time since his rebirth that he had spoken with someone in English. Unbeknownst to him, his listening and pronunciation skills, which were entirely self-taught from tapes, were already quite standard, although his tone was somewhat formal and unnatural, and there were some minor errors in grammar and vocabulary, but they didn't hinder the two foreigners from understanding what he meant.
Seeing Leng Bing Han conversing fluently with two foreigners, everyone couldn't help but glance at the annoying middle-aged man with disdain, the implication clear: can't you see that others are genuinely talented, if you're not capable and don't understand then stop spouting nonsense.
At this time, Xiao Lu also came with the medical box on the plane. She was not clear about the symptoms of the two foreign friends and did not know what medicine to give them. Fortunately, there was Leng Binghan, who quickly understood the situation in a few words, took out the medicine from the box, mixed it with mineral water, and swallowed it. It's unclear whether it was a psychological effect or the actual efficacy of the medicine, but the symptoms of the two foreigners disappeared soon after, and they repeatedly thanked Xiao Lu and Leng Binghan.
Everyone understands this sentence in English and they all cheered for Xiao Lu and Leng Bing Xuan to handle the matter properly and get thanked by the foreigners, applauding with a round of applause.
