Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 72 - : The Ancestor and the Game

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: The Ancestor and the Game

Xia Xin couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “Ancestor, this isn’t Mystic Technique, it’s technology. Society is different now; we are in a high-tech era.”

“This is technology?” Jiangli examined the object, looking it over from left to right, “The people here still understand the Yin Yang Eight Trigrams, huh? Cold water is blue and belongs to Yin, while hot water is red and represents Yang. That’s quite impressive.”

At that, Xia Xin was at a loss for words: “…”

He felt that when they had initially designed it, they probably just thought that the colors were more distinct and hadn’t considered anything related to the Five Elements or the Eight Trigrams.

With a forced laugh, Xia Xin quickly changed the subject, “Anyway, you can let the water out now. Block the drain when filling the bathtub, and this will turn into a big tub. After bathing, open this outlet, and it will automatically drain.”

Jiangli stroked her chin, “That does seem to save time and effort, no need for manual draining.”

...

Xia Xin chuckled, “Yeah, modern technology is all about making everyday life more convenient. Oh right, Ancestor, there’s also this—”

He pointed to an oval-shaped item that seemed like a bucket, yet not quite a bucket.

Jiangli looked puzzled, “What is this bucket for?”

Xia Xin explained, “This isn’t a bucket…” As he thought about the name of the item, he shook his head, “No, this can’t be called a bucket, but it’s named a toilet. You should know, Ancestor, that everyone has urgent needs. We don’t have the old-fashioned privy anymore; this serves the same purpose. If you need to go, just come here…”

Xia Xin then pressed the flush button, teaching Jiangli how to use it.

After all, the Ancestor really was a relic of the past and knew nothing at all.

He sighed, silently pitying himself for his difficult fate.

After a round of instruction, Jiangli finally understood the purpose of various things inside the bathing room, and she could only marvel at how amazing modern people were and how they really knew how to enjoy life.

In the past, only the Cleansing Technique of Xuanmen could accomplish these automatic water functions.

Now, however, everyone can use it just like this.

Truly impressive.

Jiangli couldn’t stop expressing her admiration. Xia Xin set up the shampoo and body wash, and after the hot water was ready, he said, “Ancestor, you can take a bath now. There are labels on the shampoo and body wash, and I’ve just taught you how to use them, so please give it a try. I’ve also placed your clothes here.”

Coming back to her senses amidst her amazement, Jiangli said, “Alright, I understand.”

Xia Xin quickly left, closing the door behind him.

Jiangli was not daft. After Xia Xin’s instruction, she took a bath smoothly, with no discomfort.

After coming out of the bathing room, Jiangli was still impressed by how much modern people enjoyed themselves.

However, as soon as she stepped out, she heard some unusual noises coming from the door.

“Come on come on, why aren’t you going up… what are you guys doing…”

It sounded like Xia Xin was frustrated.

Wearing the pajamas Xia Xin bought for her, Jiangli walked out and saw Xia Xin squatting at her room’s door, engrossed in his phone.

She glanced at the phone’s screen; it looked like some kind of game, but Jiangli had never seen it before.

“What are you playing?”

Xia Xin was entirely focused on the game, and upon hearing her sudden question, he jumped with fright, swiftly turning his head to find Jiangli had appeared beside him without notice.

Still reeling from the shock, he said, “Ancestor, when did you come over? How did you not make a sound?”

“It’s because you’re making too much noise,” Jiangli poked his phone.

The next second, Xia Xin let out another scream.

“An-Ancestor, don’t just touch it like that!”

He cried out because Jiangli’s touch had caused the character he was controlling to charge into a crowd, resulting in an instant game over screen.

Immediately after, his teammates’ voices exploded in protest.
