Chapter 66 The Call
In the end, everyone adopted Jiang Rang's suggestion.
The master bedroom's large bed and crib were removed and replaced with a spacious and soft tatami room.
Jiang Yun happily crawled around on the tatami mat all night.
Freedom, happiness!
He felt himself getting faster and faster, and his limb coordination improved with astonishing efficiency.
In one corner of my field of vision, the progress bar for "crawl" is steadily moving forward.
He looked at the clock in the room; five minutes had passed, but the progress bar hadn't changed.
He persisted for a while longer, and finally, the progress bar changed.
[Crawling speed: 1/300]
He glanced at the clock; about 20 minutes had passed.
"Eeee-yah-yah!"
Little Hao Jiajia watched Jiang Yun crawling repeatedly on the ground, and excitedly waved her little arms as well.
"Huh? Jiajia's moving too..."
Jiang Ren's delighted shout came from the side.
Jiang Yun ignored him. After climbing for another 40 minutes, he was exhausted. He glanced at the progress bar again, which now showed "3/300".
Exhaustion soon overwhelmed him, and he fell fast asleep in his mother's arms.
In the afternoon, after waking up and finishing her milk, she crawled around the room for another hour. I checked her progress again.
[5/300]
This time, only two progress bars increased.
He estimated that in a state of complete focus and flow, he should be able to climb very quickly, and at full speed, he could steadily climb nearly three kilometers in an hour.
Even after a nap after feeding, the body is still slightly tired, so the progress can only increase by two.
It seems this progress refers to the number of kilometers.
reasonable.
Once he has climbed 300 kilometers, he will be able to stand up properly.
Once you can stand up, you can start practicing stance training again.
If you can practice stance training, you can continue to improve.
Although all five paths are cool, he still likes martial arts the most. After all, who wouldn't want to be Superman?
With a goal in mind, he began to climb with even greater effort.
Jiang Yun felt that her crawling motion on the tatami mat was becoming smoother and faster.
When my parents occasionally came back and saw this scene, they were amazed.
Her father has been running around with his resume these past few days, apparently preparing for the opportunity Ling Caixin mentioned.
The mother and her aunt Jiang Ren were relaxing on the balcony.
The most outrageous one is Hao Jiajia, a little guy born with a life soul, but whose life soul is not even related to martial arts.
Watching him crawl around, he babbled restlessly in his aunt's arms, waving his little limbs impatiently.
Surprisingly, I'm becoming more and more comfortable with it.
The progress is changing day by day.
【爬行：12/300→15/300……36/300】
However, before crawling, another perseverance was achieved. On the third day, the "milking" progress bar reached its end first.
[Successfully connected! You have acquired the trait: Nourish (Gold)]
[Already integrated into the Soul Beast 'Lotus of Bonds', the effect of its affinity ability is increased by 100%]
Jiang Yun felt that the invisible bond between herself and her mother had become clearer and stronger.
[Collection progress of the "voice changing" feature: 8/10 → 8/5]
[Collection successful!]
[Integrating into the innate Daoist body and life soul]
They actually halved the denominator for the data collection feature; that's pretty aggressive.
The [voice-changing] characteristic, which was originally accumulating slowly, was completed ahead of schedule due to the doubled efficiency of the connection.
The [Voice Changer] property is integrated into the innate Dao body and life soul, evolving into a new special quality light spot:
[Voice Changer (Spoken): You can actively control your throat and tongue to simulate a pronunciation]
[Next stage: Continue vocal exercises for 30 days to unlock more syllables and pitch variations]
Can you simulate a segment?
While her mother was in the bathroom, Jiang Yun secretly squatted in the corner and tried it out.
"I..."
"I... Old... Sun..."
"I... Old Sun... came... came... night."
"Here comes Old Sun!"
Finally, with use, he became more and more proficient at this ability.
I can already speak a short sentence with ease.
However, he does not intend to reveal it.
A baby who can only use simple characters can be considered a genius, but one who can speak fluently from the start is quite strange.
But he planned to say something simple first to confirm his identity as a genius with an innate Daoist physique.
He wanted his parents to provide him with better opportunities and access to more knowledge.
The next morning, as usual, Ling Jiu held Jiang Yun in her arms and hummed a song softly.
Jiang Yun looked up at his mother's gentle eyes and brows. He opened his mouth, and through precisely controlled vocal cords, produced two childish syllables:
"Mother."
Ling Jiu's singing came to an abrupt end.
She froze, slowly lowered her head, and looked at the child in her arms in disbelief.
Those eyes, always clear and serene, were now focused intently on her, her small mouth slightly parted, as if still savoring the words she had just uttered.
"Baby?"
Her voice trembled, and her eyes instantly reddened. "You...you just called for Mom? Call her again, please?"
Jiang Yun saw the tears quickly welling up in her eyes and her heart softened. She repeated earnestly, "Mom, Mom."
This sound was even smoother than before.
Ling Jiu's tears finally welled up and spilled out.
She suddenly hugged the child tightly, pressing her cheek against his soft face, and burst into tears of joy.
"Very good!"
She stammered, "Mommy heard it... Baby can call Mommy now... Mommy's sweet baby..."
All her weariness and worries vanished in that moment, washed away by overwhelming happiness. She hugged Jiang Yun, kissing and nuzzling him.
Footsteps sounded outside the door; it was Jiang Rang, who was getting ready to go out for his internship.
"Jiang Rang, Jiang Rang!"
Ling Jiu's voice trembled with barely suppressed joy as she urgently called out to Jiang Rang, who was about to leave, "Come quick! Baby, our baby can say 'Mama' now!"
The footsteps froze for a moment, and the next second, Jiang Rang shoved the door open, his face filled with undisguised excitement.
Jiang Yun was very accommodating. Looking at her adoptive father, she uttered two words in a childish voice: "Dad... Dad."
"Eh!"
Jiang Rang was overjoyed and scooped Jiang Yun up from the bed. He instinctively wanted to toss him high in the air, but then suddenly remembered that he was still a baby, and his movements froze in mid-air.
In her excitement, she tripped and fell headlong into Ling Jiu's arms, baby and all.
He embraced the soft, fragrant woman in his arms.
Even Jiang Yun, who was well-protected by her own father, wanted to roll her eyes. What a coincidence...
Ling Jiu groaned as he bumped into her, but instead of pushing him away, she buried her face in his chest and remained silent for a long time.
The voice finally escaped his chest, muffled and heavy with a nasal tone:
"I always feel... I've let you down, causing you to be schemed against by someone like Wang Cheng... I've also let down my father, and even more so... myself..."
By the end, she was sobbing uncontrollably.
"Stop talking."
Jiang Rang tightened his arms, holding the mother and child close in his embrace, his voice low and firm, "It's all in the past."
He lowered his head and kissed Lingjiu's head: "From now on, it'll just be the three of us, our own little family. We'll untangle those past issues and unresolved issues when we go back to Xuancheng, okay?"
Jiang Ren, who had excitedly followed Ling Jiu after hearing her shout, stopped at the door, but was taken aback by the scene inside. He then quietly closed the door, leaving them alone.
"Mmm." Ling Jiu nodded heavily in his arms.
[The reassuring landing after a flustered start]
Caught in the middle, Jiang Yun felt nothing; she even felt a little amused.
Well done, Dad. That was a good direct approach. After testing the waters for so many days, you finally got the conversation going.
At that very moment, he clearly sensed that the invisible shackles of parenting in his mother's heart had shattered, reaching a state of perfect fulfillment.
The seed of karma you planted has blossomed; the fusion of cause and effect with the traces of the Dao can develop new spiritual paths.
