brother of space

Grandpa Zhang squinted his eyes, looked at his grandson carefully, and said after a while: "Tell me honestly, did you encounter any trouble when you went to school this time?"

what's up?Zhang Jin froze for a moment, then remembered what Zhang Junbao said yesterday, and felt alert and terrified. His grandfather couldn't really see that he wasn't a virgin, could he?

Thinking of this, my dirty behavior this morning appeared unconsciously in my mind, and then my face flushed.

"Why are you blushing?" Grandpa Zhang's serious expression was broken because of his grandson's awkward and blushing appearance, and then he frowned and shouted, "Don't make me mess up all day long. I don't study hard at a young age, and I don't know how to read books all day long." What the hell? I'm asking you, did you see something in the books at the local stall?"

ah?Zhang Jin was stunned again, her heart, which was already nervous and about to explode, fell back to the ground fiercely!At the same time, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, didn't he see that he is not a virgin?

Looking at his grandson's idiot, Grandpa Zhang didn't understand what else he couldn't understand. He suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and wish to go over and kick him, and said with disgust on his face: "The hair hasn't even grown yet. I think about all kinds of messes all day long." What are you still doing? Answer my question."

"Ah, uh! Hmm."

"Um, shit,...is it really written in the book?"

"Yeah." Zhang Jin who reflected it nodded heavily, hiding her guilty conscience by the way.What he is most afraid of now is being found out that he is not a virgin. As long as he doesn't find out his secret, he can talk about everything else.

But didn't the novels say that those with low cultivation bases can't see the ones with high cultivation bases?When I look at my grandfather now, I can indeed see his cultivation, but how does my grandfather see me?

Grandpa Zhang stared at his grandson for a while, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although he seemed to want to suppress it, he was still full of excitement in the end: "God treats my Zhang family well! Haha, I didn't expect that my Zhang family would return one day. Good, good, good!"

Grandpa Zhang said three good times in a row, and he seemed to be in an extremely good mood.

But Zhang Jin had a puzzled look on his face.

Grandpa Zhang was not in the mood to explain to his grandson at this moment, he was excited for a while and then asked his grandson: "Have you developed a sense of qi now?"

this……

Zhang Jin thought for a while, and decided to tell the truth to my grandfather. Although he didn't need to tell the whole truth, he didn't want to hide the fact that he already had true energy, because next he wanted to combine the acupuncture and moxibustion he already knew with the golden needle of the Nine Heavens Profound Girl in his mind. Integrate with true energy.

If you don't tell the truth now, you will be slapped in the face later.

As for all the truth, it is definitely impossible. Even if he has no common sense, Zhang Jin knows that if he tells too much truth, there must be too many things.

"Hmm." Zhang Jin nodded heavily, "According to the book, it should be three floors now!" In fact, there should be seven or eight floors.It's just that Zhang Jin instinctively felt that he had to keep it a little bit, after all, he was so high all of a sudden, and he couldn't explain it.It has been said in that strange picture that it is very difficult to cultivate true qi in modern times.And the matter of Donglai Ziqi is even more difficult to explain.

However, looking at Grandpa Zhang's expression, it seems that the third level of true energy is quite shocking.

"Third floor!" Grandpa Zhang muttered to himself, the shock on his expression clearly revealed.Based on his old man's understanding of true qi, the third level of refining qi is remarkable.Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Zhang family lived on true energy.

But in the whole family of the Zhang family back then, there were only a few people who had true energy.

It's like he's practiced for so many years, but he still feels a little angry, so he still can't use it.

In fact, infuriating, most of the time, in addition to hard work, it also depends on luck.Take their Zhang family as an example, in the nearly 1000 years of history, there are only three people who have cultivated their true qi to the fifth level and above, and there are no more than ten people who have cultivated their true qi to the fifth level.Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the ancestor of the famous doctor in their family who shocked China and foreign countries was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Now, my grandson actually tells me that he is already at the third level of Qi Refining!He is still so young, is he expected to enter the fifth level of Qi refining and the sixth level of Qi refining in the future?

If this is the case, then the rise of the Zhang family's medical career will be unstoppable!

"Hehe, haha!" Grandpa Zhang didn't know what he thought of, but he burst into tears and laughed at the same time.

Zhang Jin had never seen such a grandfather before, and felt inexplicably heavy. She wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only stand aside stupidly.

Grandpa Zhang let go of his emotions for a while before restraining himself, he looked up at his grandson for a moment and said, "Let's eat!"

"Uh! Good." Zhang Jin originally thought that Grandpa was going to say something to him, like asking him what was written in the book, etc., but he didn't expect it to be these four words in the end.

Grandpa Zhang really had a thousand words to say, but seeing his grandson's bewildered expression, he couldn't say anything in the end.

Although the Zhang family's demise back then was due to the times, it was also related to himself and the human nature in this world.The grandson is still underage, and even due to geographical limitations, his personality is too simple. To the dark side of the world, he is like a three-year-old child.

Although he is now at the third level of Qi refining, Huaxia's doctors have never been pure medical families, and the complexity of it is unimaginable for ordinary people.If a family hatred that has been passed down for thousands of years is imposed on an underage child prematurely, it will only spoil the seedlings, and in the end it will only be the victim of another family's rise.

If you want to bring the Zhang family back into the Chinese medical industry, it is not enough to rely on the third level of Qi Refining. In today's world, at least, at least the fifth level, or even higher!

However, thinking of his grandson's current situation, Grandpa Zhang began to look forward to the future.

He just needs to wait, wait, and even if the Zhang family can't return to the medical world while he is alive, his grandson will inherit the Zhang family. One day, the glory of the Zhang family's medical family will return again.

Now, he doesn't want his grandson to have too much pressure, so he chooses not to say anything.Turn around and walk towards the back door of the main room.

Zhang Jin followed his grandfather into the house.As soon as he took two steps, he smelled the stench of sweat and acid.Sniffing, I suddenly realized that the smell came from me?

what happened?Did you take a shower last night?And it wasn't hot last night, was it?How come it smells so heavy in the morning?

Breakfast was thick porridge with dried chili fried in sesame oil and fried pickles. It tasted so refreshing that Zhang Jin couldn't bear to put his chopsticks down after eating three bowls in one go.

The reason why I put the chopsticks in the end was because I couldn't bear the pressure from my grandfather's eyes.

"Do you have a lot of homework?" Grandpa Zhang asked when he saw his grandson put down his chopsticks.It's not that he is reluctant to feed this kid, but that the other party's stomach is already full and he's still bloating, wishing he could make enough money once, which really makes him unable to stand it.

While tidying up the bowls and chopsticks, Zhang Jin still had some unfinished business. Hearing her grandfather's question, she hurriedly replied, "I finished it when I was at school."

"Oh, if you have nothing to do in the morning, you can go up the mountain to chop some firewood. Everyone is still busy. No matter how late, when you come back next time, you will have finished cutting all that can be cut nearby. When collecting herbs last time, I remember There are a few dead pine trees in the garden. Take an ax to chop them, and ask your father to help get them back at the mountain pass later. Don’t call the boss and the third child. I heard from your grandfather yesterday that there are still two pieces of land at home that have not been planted. .”

Didn't it say that the grandfather and father planted the seeds separately?Why is there still no land to plant?Zhang Jin had some doubts, but didn't ask.

It was not a problem for him to go up the mountain alone. They lived in the mountains in Woniu Village, and all the children in the mountains hadn't been in the mountains since they were young.He followed his grandfather up the mountain to collect medicine all the year round, and no one is more familiar with the surrounding mountains than him.

Besides, if he goes up the mountain alone today, he can try the true qi he just cultivated.

The weather in November in the Gregorian calendar, the temperature has gradually dropped, and there is no dew on the mountain in the morning. If it gets colder, maybe frost will come out.

Zhang Jin took a sickle, a bamboo rake, and a small bundle of straw ropes, and walked to the mountain in the south of the village according to Grandpa Zhang's instructions.

When passing by their home, I saw his elder brother and younger brother from a distance. One was pulling the ground with a walking tractor, and the other was sowing seeds behind. There were also several bags of fertilizer on the side of the field. Everyone is busy.

Zhang's father, Zhang's grandfather, and Zhang's mother are working together to grow peas in a nearby field.

As for their cattle, they were driven to plow in another field by their uncle.Seeing this scene, Zhang Jin didn't understand anything. His parents were hardworking people. Although their family had a lot of land, they never fell behind.With a car this year, his grandfather and father can at least plow two plots of land each day.

But maybe it is because their family has a walking tractor, so there is a situation where they don't worry about the shortage but the unevenness.Although he only listened sporadically last night, it was enough for him to understand the current situation at home.

In the past, because everyone used cattle to cultivate the land, the speed of planting depends on the individual's ability, so there is nothing to say.But it's not going to work this year. Grandpa Zhang's three sons, even if they all knew that the car was drawn by Zhang Jin in a lottery, they couldn't help feeling jealous.

After all, although Woniu Village is relatively wealthy among the nearby villages, it can't afford walking tractors, and there are only three in the whole village.With this thing, it is simply the rhythm of becoming a wealthy household in the village.

At this time, no matter how generous Grandpa Zhang's other two sons are, their daughter-in-law will be jealous.

The Zhang family planted the land slowly this year. Needless to say, when the land was being planted, Zhang's father was called to help plow the land.

However, Zhang's mother has always kept her son from participating in these matters, and also warned that no matter what conflicts the parents have, the brothers should still live in harmony.Such a diameter at breast height may also be the reason why Grandpa Zhang does not live with the eldest son and the younger son, but must live with the second son.

"Second, why are you going?" When passing by the field at home, Zhang's mother happened to look up.

Zhang Jin raised the straw rope in his hand and said, "Go to the mountain to cut firewood."

"Oh, then be careful on your own."

"En." Zhang Jin responded.

Zhang Laosan's voice came from behind, and he shouted loudly: "Second brother, bring a rabbit back."

"When the rabbit belongs to your family?" Zhang's father turned around and said.

Grandpa Zhang laughed loudly and said: "Okay, my son can't eat oil and water at school. I was reluctant to ask you to cut some meat yesterday, so I am ashamed to say it. The second child hastened to chop firewood and come back early at noon. Let your mother kill him." Just feed the three of you brothers well."

"No need." Zhang Jin thought about her plan to practice silver needles in the mountains today, and refused: "Grandpa said that he will go to the street to cut meat tomorrow, and I won't come back to eat at noon. Brother and father will pick me up at the southern mountain pass later."

"Grandpa wants to cut the meat?" Zhang Laosan cheered before anyone else could speak.

The embarrassing appearance made Zhang's father, who was far away, lose his face, and turned around and ordered Zhang's mother not to kill chickens today.

Zhang Jin didn't continue to chat with his family, and walked a long way in a wobble. When he finished walking the flat land in the village, he also arrived at the mountain in the south of the village.

On the mountain in autumn, because everyone in the village is still busy with farming, no one comes to collect firewood, and a thick layer of pine needles has accumulated on the ground.You can rake a lot with just a bamboo rake.

The entrance to Nanshan happened to be a large dense pine forest, and walking up it now was like stepping on a plush carpet.Seeing that there were a lot of pine hairs on the ground, Zhang Jin thought about it, put down the grass rope and sickle, and raked up the pine hairs nearby.

Pine hair is the best kindling in the farmhouse, and since he didn't bring any carrying tools, it's easier to tie it up at the mountain pass and carry it out.And the pine hair has been made here, and when he enters the mountain, he only needs to cut down a few dead trees and drag it out.If the fur is raked in the mountains, when he drags it out, the bundled firewood will also be loose.

Since the place is spacious and easy to rake, and Zhang Jin deliberately accelerated the speed, a lot of rakes were raked in a short time.During the period, I also picked several catties of pine mushrooms under a few hidden pine trees, enough to eat several meals.

Guessing that it could be bundled into two or three firewood, Zhang Jin put down the rake, casually chopped a few bushes from a few bushes and threw them on top.

Although Woniu Village doesn't say how simple the folk customs are, but if you rake a pile like this and put the chopped bushes, generally no one will take it.Unless it is not from the village.But at this time, people in both Woniu Village and other nearby villages were busy farming, so he was not worried that someone would come back to get his firewood.

After finishing all this, Zhang Jin continued to walk up the mountain with a rake on her shoulders. When there were dead trees or better twigs, mugwort and other firewood on the side of the road, she would stop to cut a few sickles and pile them on the side of the road.

Of course, when you encounter pine mushrooms, fungus, hawthorn, etc., you have to stop and pick them.He made plans when he entered the mountain today.Practicing silver needles is one, picking mountain goods is another.The classmates in the class said that every Chinese New Year, the vegetables in the urban area are very expensive, such as mushrooms, fungus and other mountain products, with a minimum price of more than ten yuan and a maximum price of 60 yuan per catty.For this reason, he also secretly took a few snakeskin bags from home, and planned to pack them separately at that time.

In fact, last year he had the idea of ​​going to the urban area to buy mountain products, but unfortunately, mushrooms are not easy to store, even if they are dried, they will be eaten unknowingly under normal circumstances if they are picked at home.

With the idea of ​​carrying it to school and selling it for money, the family will think it is not doing business properly.It's all right now, with the space, he only needs to put the things he picked in it, and he is not afraid of breaking it.When the Chinese New Year comes, it can be sold directly.

After practicing Qi, Zhang Jin's footsteps also became much faster. From the time he left the house, he arrived at the valley in the south that Grandpa mentioned in less than two hours.As for this place, he used to say that he stopped and raked the hair in the middle, even if he walked all the way, it would take more than two hours or nearly three hours.

Although this place is not far from Woniu Village, under normal circumstances, everyone will not go too deep into the mountains.Especially in the past few years after the country required the closure of mountains and returning farmland to forests, the animals on the mountains have also increased.

The dead trees my grandfather mentioned grew on the edge of the Nanshan valley, quite a few, seven or eight, some of which were covered with fungus, some were rotten and had no firepower, and there were not many branches above their heads.But Zhang Jin knew that this kind of firewood was completely dry from the inside to the outside, and it was also very easy to burn.So without further ado, let's start.Because he wanted to test his true energy, he deliberately forgot to bring an ax when he went out.

Without an axe, you can only chop with a sickle now.

Glancing at the crescent moon scythe in his hand, Zhang Jin tried hard to recall in his head the methods of using zhenqi in those scenes that had appeared before.
