Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background
Chapter 71 Northwest Land
To celebrate the return of Wang Xingguo and Yang Lirong, Cao Xing started preparing in the kitchen early in the morning.
At noon, Wang Xingguo and his wife both returned home.
"What smells so good?"
Yang Lirong smelled the fragrance of the dishes as soon as she entered the door.
"What else? It must be the meal that boy cooked."
Cao Xing walked out excitedly.
"Uncle Wang, Aunt Yang, you are finally back."
As he said this, he walked up to Wang Xingguo and gave him a hug.
Wang Xingguo was also delighted and laughed and scolded: "You kid, you're not even this excited after coming back from Shanghai."
"Hey, aren't you worried that you'll leave and not want me anymore?"
"Get lost, what are you thinking? We've only been out for three months, not three years."
"Okay, okay, nephew is wrong. I specially prepared a table of delicious food today as an apology."
The relationship between the three of them is not like that between parents and children, but it is better than that between parents and children.
When Wang Xingguo and Yang Lirong entered the house and saw a table full of various dishes, they couldn't help but exclaim.
"Hey, nowadays, you can find a place in the city that can have such a table. I think only our family can do it."
Cao Xing knew that supplies were in short supply, and the reason why the city could still have food was all due to support from surrounding provinces.
If we leave the old city, there will be countless people starving!
"Uncle Wang, the disaster will surely pass, and people will be able to eat so many delicious foods in the future."
Wang Xingguo did not pick up his chopsticks despite the delicious dishes on the table.
"Xiao Xing, countless people are freezing to death or starving to death outside, but we are here eating food that others only dream of eating. This is really hard for me to swallow."
Cao Xing also knew the suffering that the drought had brought to the country in the past three years. According to incomplete statistics, including this year, the number of people who starved to death outside had reached tens of millions.
It’s just that the people in the city have never been out, and communications are not well developed, so they just think that people outside are just not getting enough to eat like them.
But people outside not only didn’t have enough to eat, they simply had nothing to eat.
Cao Xing could do nothing about these things unless he could use a large amount of gold to exchange for a large amount in the space pawnshop.
But he currently has no access to gold.
There is no way to obtain so much gold reserves even in a short period of time.
"Uncle Wang, natural disasters are beyond human control. My ability is too limited. I can only ensure that the people around me have enough food and clothing, but I cannot fight against this natural disaster."
"Oh, of course I know, but I just feel bad."
"Although I cannot fight against this natural disaster, according to the hexagram, it will only last for this year, and everything will return to normal tomorrow."
Wang Xingguo was surprised and asked, "Can you really do those magic tricks?"
He had heard from Zheng Guotao and Wang Jianguo that this kid was very weird now.
Cao Xing said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Wang, the Zhouyi Bagua has existed since ancient times. I had a chance encounter and learned the essence from Taoist Yunxiao. Don't look down on it."
Yang Lirong asked curiously, "Xiaoxing, why don't you demonstrate it to your uncle Wang in person, otherwise he won't believe it."
Cao Xing curled his lips and said, "Tsk, if my master didn't predict the future, where did the map of the vast oil field distribution come from? You are still questioning it now."
Cao Xing was really tired, because he knew that one lie often needed to be covered up with countless lies.
But the two people in front of him were his closest relatives, and he knew that if he couldn't show his skills and make them completely reassure themselves, they would inevitably worry about him in the future.
Thinking of this, he immediately pointed at the two people's cups.
"The vitality of water surges in my heart. The moisture of water moistens my body. The Supreme Lord Laozi urgently orders, and the water of the heavenly spring appears!"
He recited the formula he made up at random, and saw that the two people's cups were filled with water out of thin air!
Wang Xingguo and his wife could not help but exclaim in amazement.
"Is this really a method used by the immortals?"
"This ability to create water out of thin air is truly miraculous!"
"There are still real people in this world. There are some things you have to believe!"
Cao Xing said, "Uncle Wang, Aunt Yang, this is water from a heavenly spring. Drinking it will be good for you."
The two men heard this without any suspicion and quickly drank up the water in the cup.
Soon the two of them felt relaxed all over, the aches and pains in their bodies caused by the journey were gone, and even their minds became clearer!
Wang Xingguo didn't know what he was thinking, and asked quickly: "Xiaoxing, how much of this water can you make?"
Cao Xing suddenly felt a chill and quickly stepped back.
"Uncle Wang, you're not going to sell me out, are you?"
Wang Xingguo slapped his forehead.
"What are you thinking about? It's just that my troops are about to set off again, to where water is needed."
Cao Xing was stunned. A place that needed water?
He felt vaguely uneasy because the whole country was suffering from drought and many places needed water.
However, there are not many places where Wang Xingguo can say this.
The most likely place is the west!
"Uncle Wang, you just got back and the troops are going to set out again?"
Wang Xingguo smiled bitterly and said, "Originally, we didn't need to march again, but No. 1 and No. 2 both thought I was a lucky general. The Japanese had given up on most of the oil fields, but when I went there, I was pleasantly surprised. So this time, my troops will be used again."
Cao Xing was speechless. This was just a desperate attempt to find psychological comfort.
"Uncle Wang, can you let me guess where we are going this time?"
Uncle Wang was now very interested in Cao Xing, the "talented and extraordinary" nephew, and nodded and said, "Just guess it, let me see it for myself."
Cao Xing pretended to close his eyes, chanting an inaudible spell, and suddenly opened his eyes.
"Uncle Wang, you are not going to the west this time, are you?"
Wang Xingguo stood up suddenly, looked around as usual, and spoke in a low voice.
"You are really amazing, kid."
Cao Xing's expression darkened. The west was not a good place.
And I don’t think I’ll be able to come back anytime soon!
"Uncle Wang, is it... the one with the bang?"
In order to confirm his idea, Cao Xing also gestured what a big explosion would look like.
Wang Xingguo now admires Cao Xing's calculations of the I Ching and the Eight Trigrams to the extreme.
"Xiaoxing, can you calculate whether it will succeed this time?"
Cao Xing nodded heavily and said, "Of course, my master once said that there is one thing that can make our people stand up, and that is this!"
Wang Xingguo was so excited when he heard this!
"Hahaha! I knew it. What does it matter if Big Goose's experts withdraw? We can still obtain it through our own efforts!"
Cao Xing looked at Uncle Wang who was so excited and felt a little depressed.
After Wang Xingguo saw this, he couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoxing, why do you look like that?"
"Hey, Uncle Wang, I guess we won't be able to see each other for several years now that you're gone. It's a bitter and cold place over there, and I can't bear to leave you."
Wang Xingguo patted him on the shoulder and said, "For the prosperity of our country, we can truly stand up. What does the difference between us mean?"
Cao Xing also understood the importance of national affairs.
[Ding! Issued a mission. The Northwest is hard. Please do your best to help the Northwest. ]
