After the system ran, I took off with my family
Chapter 8 Shepherd’s Purse Dumplings
"Host, close your eyes and concentrate.
Slowly feel the lightning energy flowing in your meridians, and then try to guide the energy to your hands.
Release it, and if you become proficient, you can release lightning instantly." Little Tangyuan taught her slowly.
"The power of the primary lightning ability is not great. If you want to upgrade it,
You can try to absorb the energy from the lightning when it thunders.
You can also upgrade after absorbing a certain amount, or see if there is a chance to sign out a lightning crystal core later.
Absorb the lightning crystal core and you will be able to level up quickly."
Lin Shuyue closed her eyes and did as Xiao Tangyuan said, concentrating her mind.
I really felt a warm energy flowing slowly through my meridians.
Then slowly guide it to the palm of your hand, repeat several times, and then there will be a "sizzle" sound.
A faint flash of lightning flashed across the palm of Lin Shuyue's right hand.
Her eyes widened. "Successful? So quickly? Am I a genius?"
Little Tangyuan looked at his host and nodded with satisfaction: "As expected of the host chosen by this system, his aptitude is so good."
Lin Shuyue was in high spirits, releasing lightning and thunder over and over again with great joy.
The size of the lightning gradually changed from the size of a caterpillar to the size of a brush, and the speed of release became faster and faster.
After half an hour, she finally stopped and sat down on the bed.
Well, I'm a little tired. This is very exhausting.
After a short rest, she picked up the sword manual and thought: "After all, lightning abilities cannot be used openly, otherwise others will think I am a monster.
We also have to worry about the covetousness of those powerful people.
Even if you don't care about what others say, you have family and you shouldn't let them worry about it.
Don’t say that others can’t beat you and what you are afraid of. Think about it, even ants can kill elephants.
Isn't it good to just enjoy life in another world? Why make enemies with the whole world?
Therefore, we still need a way to save our lives, and swordsmanship is the most suitable."
After making up her mind, she opened the sword manual, which showed various moves.
From the most basic sword moves: stabbing, chopping, hanging, and pointing, to the more advanced moves later on, the drawings are very clear.
It's just that on the last page of the sword manual it's written that practicing this sword technique requires practicing internal force and mental skills to achieve perfection.
After mastering it, the sword technique, when wielded, is like flowing light, making it impossible for the enemy to catch it. Moreover, once the sword energy is formed, it can kill people in an instant without being seen.
Lin Shuyue was overwhelmed with emotion after reading it, and said: "It's amazing! When I learn it, I can hold a sword in my right hand and release lightning with my left hand!"
She happily put the sword manual back into the system and said, "I hope I can sign in a peerless sword and a method to cultivate my inner strength sooner."
Then she picked up a small green jade bottle on the bed and squinted her eyes to see three pills inside. "This is the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
It is a must-have elixir in immortal cultivation literature, but the novels all say that using the marrow cleansing elixir will cause the body to expel a lot of dirt and it will be very painful.
Then I have to think carefully about how to eat it without making my family suspicious.
And there are only three, and there are five people in the family, so there are not enough to share.”
"Oh, I think I signed a copy card." Lin Shuyue found the copy card among the remaining things on the bed.
Instructions for use are written on the back of the card. Just stick the card on something and say "copy" silently in your mind.
She placed the small jade bottle on the bed, then placed the copy card against the small jade bottle, silently saying "Copy".
Then, an identical small jade bottle appeared next to the small jade bottle.
"That's amazing. Now there are six Marrow Cleansing Pills, one for each person in the family, and one extra."
Lin Shuyue was holding two bottles and smiling like a little fool.
"The sun is about to set, why hasn't Xiaoya gotten up yet? Is she tired from going to town?"
As footsteps approached, Lin Shuyue heard her mother's voice. She quickly put the remaining things on the bed into her system backpack and opened the door.
"Mom, are you looking for me?"
Li looked at her daughter carefully and found that her face was rosy and she was not feeling unwell, so she felt relieved.
"It's okay. Mom is just worried about you. I'm going back to the kitchen to help."
Lin Shuyue followed Li to the kitchen, where her second brother was making a fire.
Li cut a small piece of fat from the meat she bought in the morning and put it into the iron pot to boil, and then took out a handful of leeks from the corner of the kitchen.
The chives were brought by Aunt Cui'e, who was the mother of the original body's little friend Xiao Taohua.
He has a very good relationship with the Li family, and he has brought a lot of vegetables over in the past two days.
The common people in this dynasty could not eat many kinds of vegetables, including leeks, celery, cucumbers, eggplants, peppers and cabbage.
At lunch, the family unanimously decided to have dumplings for dinner.
Make leek dumplings and shepherd's purse dumplings. The shepherd's purse is tender now.
Lin An and Lin Shuyuan had already dug a small basket of shepherd's purse in the afternoon.
Lin Shuyue helped her mother wash the leeks and shepherd's purse.
Then Li cut a piece of the meat she bought in the morning into minced meat and chopped the chives.
Shepherd's purse needs to be blanched in boiling water to remove oxalic acid.
Then cool the shepherd's purse, squeeze out the moisture, and cut it into small pieces, while Lin An helps to roll out the dough.
Whether dumplings are delicious or not depends mainly on how well the filling is seasoned. Li is an expert at making dumpling fillings.
In the past, Li was responsible for making the fillings for dumplings at the Lin family's old house.
In the evening, the family of five sat down and looked at the two large plates of dumplings on the table. Lin An couldn't wait to wave his hand and said, "Let's eat!"
Lin Shuyue picked up a shepherd's purse dumpling, took a bite, and her mouth was filled with freshness and fragrance. The meat filling was tender and juicy, and the unique fragrance of shepherd's purse burst in her mouth.
In the end, the two large plates of dumplings were eaten up by the five people.
"Mom, let's make dumplings next time. They are so delicious. This is the first time I eat so many dumplings..." Lin Shuyan said to Li excitedly.
Li felt sad when she heard what her youngest son said.
In fact, the Lin family's old house was quite wealthy in the village. Lin Dahai's ancestors were once well-known landlords in Qinghe Town.
But later on, by the time of Lin Dahai’s grandfather, the family had fallen into decline.
Lin Dahai's grandfather was addicted to gambling and eventually lost hundreds of acres of land.
By the time of Lin Dahai's generation, there were only 30 acres of land left, so there probably wasn't much money left, but it was much better off than most people in the village.
On weekdays, we can buy some meat at home every now and then.
The meat in the house was eaten primarily by the old man and Lin Jinbao, followed by Lin Ping's family. As for Lin An's family, they could only drink the meat soup.
This time, Lin Jinbao gambled and owed the gambling house thirty taels of silver.
Lin Dahai said that his family only had 25 taels of silver, and they were short of 5 taels.
The evil-hearted Luo and Lin Jinbao then came up with a bad idea.
The next day, while Li went to wash clothes, she tricked Xiao Ya into going to town.
If he wanted to sell the girl to a brothel, the brothel's madam would offer him ten taels of silver.
When Li came back, she didn't see Xiao Ya and thought she had gone to play with Taohua.
Li is still somewhat puzzled. According to the old Lin family's way of living, they could buy meat every now and then.
Lin Jinbao was often seen eating snacks secretly. Logically speaking, if he could spend money so lavishly, there must be at least thirty taels of silver at home.
She thought of her father-in-law smiling and kind every day, and Li shuddered.
I can't think about it anymore, people's minds are hard to predict...
