[Teacher, stop reciting, stop reciting, you are driving me crazy.]

[Is this predestined guest really a researcher, not a teacher?]

[Hahahaha, I put myself in the yellow-skinned guy’s perspective who was forced to listen to a physics researcher talk about physics. The pain!]

When <Step Into Science> saw the comments mocking him, he frowned and sighed, “I didn’t know it was a weasel… Host, did it succeed in getting a title?”

An Rugu pondered for a moment and suddenly remembered Su Lai from the Special Cases Management Bureau. The one his family worshipped at home was a Fox Immortal, so he should have some Daoist skills in this area and might know the weasel.

She then raised her eyes and said into the microphone, “I’ll go ask. Please wait a moment.”

Then, she turned off the microphone, walked to the side, called Lin Weiyu, and told her about the Weasel’s request for a title.

Lin Weiyu was stunned, “There is such a person? Where does that person live, and what is his birth date? I will ask Su Lai for you.”

An Rugu told the other party the information she had calculated before. Thereafter, Lin Weiyu took the information and went to find Su Lai.

Su Lai arranged the offerings and began to call upon the Fox Immortal. After a long while, a hoarse sound like that of pulling an old bellows sounded in his ears.

After listening to the whole story, Su Lai immediately passed the news to An Rugu.

An Rugu, upon learning the ins and outs of things: “…”

It turned out that the yellow-skinned creature was so deeply entangled with this predestined guest…

Everything went smoothly, and the livestream channel was still open. The predestined guest <Step Into Science> was still waiting anxiously.

An Rugu’s eyes moved slightly, and her voice was clear, “I know why that weasel came to you to ask for a title.”

<Step Into Science> was stunned for a moment. “Didn’t it just happen to meet me?”

An Rugu shook her head, “Your ancestors were hunters, right?”

<Step into Science>’s eyes widened, and he nodded immediately. “Our village is surrounded by mountains. We live by the mountains and the water. Many families used to be hunters, including my grandfather’s generation. It was only my father who went to the city to work. The local area also began issuing new regulations, so not many people became hunters anymore. But the family still has a homemade gun at home, without bullets now.”

“Did your grandfather encounter a weasel asking for a title fifty years ago?”

When he heard this, <Step into Science>’s eyes widened. He didn’t know there was such a thing! He immediately grabbed his phone and walked to the main room. “Host, wait a minute. I’ll ask him.”

… …

In the main room.

Grandpa was smoking his pipe while playing mahjong with other villagers.

Grandpa played a tile, “Three of a kind.”

The person next to him immediately pushed the mahjong tiles over and said with a look of joy, “Oh, it’s a mess!”

Grandpa looked at the other three people at the card table, his eyes full of envy and jealousy, “Why are you all so lucky today? Every time I throw the tiles, you win.”

The others held their chips and said with a smile, “It’s not that we are too lucky, it’s that you are too unlucky.”

“You sent it my way, so I had no choice but to grab it and win.”

Grandpa was upset and pushed the tiles away. “I won’t play anymore, you guys play by yourselves.”

“This game is just small coins, you only lost fifty in one whole day of playing. Don’t be so stingy, keep going.”

“Yeah, it’s not like we haven’t lost money before, and we’d still keep playing. How can you be so stingy?”

Their children have all settled down in big cities and would usually send some money back, so they no longer need to do farm work. Because they were too bored, they played mahjong together to relieve their boredom. At the end of the day, the winnings and losses when totaled were not big, otherwise their families would not let them play at all.

Grandpa felt a little itchy and couldn’t help but put his hands on the mahjong tiles again.

However, at this moment, his grandson suddenly walked into the room from outside, his steps hurried, looking anxious, “Grandpa, have you ever met a weasel before that asked you if it looked like a human?”

Grandpa was stunned for a moment and then asked, “…How do you know this?”

<Step Into Science> was shocked. “I also encountered one recently.”

Grandpa immediately pushed the mahjong tiles away after hearing this. He lost interest in the game and said in a deep voice, “Alas, it really came back to find me.”

“What’s going on?”

Grandpa took a puff of his pipe and said, “When I was your age, I heard the old people in the village talk about stories of the Yellow Immortal. But I was young and hot-tempered at that time and didn’t believe in ghosts and gods. One day, I was drunk and took a homemade gun to the mountain. I met a weasel. The weasel asked me if it looked like a human.

“I was drunk and only thought about hunting. I didn’t hear what it said and shot it.

“Later, when I sobered up, I remembered all the old stories and broke out in a cold sweat. “

<Step Into Science> was surprised, “You hurt it?”

Grandpa shook his head, “I didn’t hit it, it ran away in shame.”

<Step Into Science> breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, “Why didn’t you tell us before about this?”

Grandpa said with some depression, “It was so weird, I was afraid it would scare people. How can I dare to tell anyone? So I just thought of it as a dream.”

… …

The barrage of comments in the livestream channel suddenly exploded.

[Wow, wow, the host even knows this! Could it be that the grandfather and grandson met the same weasel? Do weasels have such a long lifespan?]

[Of course a weasel that has succeeded in cultivation has a long lifespan. The weasel is said to be wearing a melon-shaped hat and a small jacket, which seems like the attire of the previous dynasty. It may be more than a hundred years old.]

[In more than a hundred years, the weasel has asked for a title twice, but it has failed both times. This is too tragic.]

[After drinking, the grandfather used a homemade gun to physically exorcise a weasel. After drinking, the grandson also used physics to exorcise a weasel. What a pity it met this grandfather and grandson.]

… …

<Step Into Science> also thought of this, so he asked, “Was it wearing a small melon-shaped hat and a gray cotton coat which looked a bit old?”

Grandpa thought for a moment and nodded heavily, “Yes, that’s it, similar to the ones worn in TV dramas.”

When the other elderly people learned that he and his grandfather had such an experience, they all sighed.
