In late autumn, in the early morning, the fog is thick and frosty, and the chill penetrates the bones.
It was already the end of the month, and Yunjing had a few days off to go home. He had already made an agreement with his master Li Qiu the day before.
If we don’t go back this year, we won’t be able to go back due to heavy snowfall and road closures.
At the point where the small road and the main road branched off, Yunjing said goodbye to his mentor and headed towards Xiaoxi Village accompanied by Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei.
In fact, over the past year, Yunjing would go home almost at the end of every month, and Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei would accompany him every time. They had really become Yunjing's full-time bodyguards.
The late autumn morning was chilly to the bone, but Yunjing's clothes were not too bulky, but seemed a little thin. The reason for this was because he was wearing the jade pendant given by the eldest princess.
When the eldest princess gave it to him, she said that wearing the jade pendant could keep people warm in winter and cool in summer. Yun Jingshen felt it. Putting it in her arms in the late autumn morning, his whole body felt warm and magical.
In fact, even if Yunjing didn't bring that piece of jade, he could barely withstand the current temperature, at least he wouldn't get sick from the cold. This was thanks to the spiritual energy he absorbed every day during this period.
During this period, under the nourishment of spiritual energy, his physique has been greatly improved. Whether it is physical ability, strength, or agility, he can be said to be far superior to his peers. He does not know how much more, and has not made a detailed comparison.
But in terms of strength alone, Yunjing felt that he was probably close to or even equal to a normal twenty-year-old adult man. This was just the change brought about by him absorbing spiritual energy in less than two months.
After that, under the nourishment of spiritual energy, he grew very fast. At the age of eight, he was almost 1.4 meters tall. He was not the best among his peers, but he was definitely taller than most. Secondly, his skin also improved.
He turned white. After turning white, he looked better, especially since he didn't have acne or anything like that. Well, he probably hadn't hit puberty yet...
"About fifteen meters!"
Riding on the horse, Yun Jing closed his eyes slightly, observed his surroundings from a unique third-party perspective, and came up with this data.
The range of his perception and 'seeing' with his eyes closed reached about fifteen meters. In less than two months, the spiritual energy he absorbed increased by nearly five meters. Such growth exceeded his growth in the previous year.
.
He doesn't know how far the range will eventually grow, but there should be a limit, but it should be far from the limit at the moment.
"Master Yun, please slow down, you are not familiar with this horse yet," Liu Dazhuang reminded slightly worriedly.
This time when he went back, Yunjing did not ride with them again, but rode a horse alone. It was a dark horse that was not yet underage, but it had been trained to be very docile.
This horse was given to him by Yunjing's senior brother, Li Qiu's eldest son. It was almost half a year ago. It was a gift given to him by Yunjing's senior brother when he got the first place in the exam. He has always kept it in Li Qiu's house.
Qiu's family, this time when he went back, he happened to ride on it.
Yunjing turned back and smiled: "Uncle Liu, don't worry, I have been riding bulls since I was a child, and this horse riding is no different."
"Master Yun, riding a bull is different from riding a horse. Bulls move slowly and are relatively stable, but riding a horse can cause you to fall if you don't pay attention," Liu Dazhuang reminded kindly.
Yun Dingding nodded and said, "I know what's appropriate."
It is worth mentioning that the technologies of horseshoes, saddles and stirrups here are already mature, and there is no chance for Yunjing to ‘invent’ them.
Although Yunjing has never practiced martial arts, under the nourishment of spiritual energy, his skills can be said to be strong. In addition, he is close to animals, so even though it is his first time to ride a horse, it is not difficult. After getting familiar with a journey, he
There is even a sense of control.
This is the advantage of good talent, you can pick up everything quickly.
Yunjing didn't have such talent in his previous life. He didn't know how many times he fell while trying to ride a bicycle. Thinking about it makes him cry...
Now that the autumn harvest has passed, Niujiao Town has returned to its former peace. Those people who appeared out of nowhere some time ago came and left as suddenly as they came.
The "Liangyuan Township" archway given by the Emperor has been built. It is five feet high and ten feet wide. It is supported by six white stone pillars that can be hugged by one person. It has carved beams and painted pillars, with dragons and phoenixes hanging on it. It is magnificent and shows the dignity of the emperor's gift.
In this regard, Yunjing can only say that it wastes people and money.
The cost of the archway is estimated to be no less than 3,000 taels of silver. If the officials responsible for the construction had done something wrong, the cost would have been bottomless.
Spending so much money is just to erect a beautiful arch.
When passing by the archway, Yunjing also paid attention to his surroundings. Once, when he was two years old, at this very location, a thug went on a rampage and killed many people in a row. Their lives were like ants.
I still remember that scene clearly now.
Now think about it, if Yun Jing were to confront the thug that the villagers had avoided when they saw him from a distance, he would be 80% sure to kill him before he could get close!
It's not that he is arrogant, but that he really has the confidence, and he is even conservative. After all, there are no absolutes in anything, and there are too many factors that determine the final result.
Just with his ability to control objects, Yun Jing had at least five ways to kill the former thug in advance.
He couldn't help feeling that he finally felt a little safer now.
Of course, if possible, Yunjing hopes that he will never encounter that kind of life-or-death situation. Fighting and killing, no matter whether he wins or loses, is not a good thing...
The return journey is not near, but when the road ends and the sun gets higher, Xiaoxi Village is already in sight.
Before they reached the village entrance, Liu Dazhuang and the others stopped and said: "Master Yun, we will send you here and we will pick you up in the next few days."
Yunjing repeatedly tried to persuade them to stay, but they insisted on leaving, so they had no choice but to give up. Yunjing knew that they did not want to cause trouble to his family.
When they went back, Yunjing asked them to help take the pony he was riding back. In fact, there was already a cow at home. It would be very troublesome to feed the horse for a few more days, and the horse was also growing.
, Yunjing didn’t want his family to use precious food to feed the horses.
What a horse eats is better than what many people eat. Well, that's a fact.
Carrying the book box, he walked to the village wearing a slightly thin Yunjing. On days when he was not at school, his hair was tied into a ponytail. As he moved forward step by step, the ponytail on the back of his head also flicked.
"You brat, where are you running? If you run again, believe it or not, I will break your legs!"
Just as he arrived at the entrance of the village, Yunjing heard such an angry roar.
Looking for fame, Yun Jing suddenly became happy. He saw Yun Xiaofu in the village holding a stick and chasing a little boy.
The little boy was about five or six years old. He had a tough head and a strong brain. He ran so fast that Yun Xiaofu couldn't catch him. He was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick.
The little boy Yun Jing knew was named Yun Dagui, and he was Yun Xiaofu's son. When Yun Jing went to town for the first time, Yun Xiaofu's wife had only been pregnant for a short time, and she was already so big now.
Tsk, Yun Xiaofu and Yun Dagui, they sound like a family.
"Brother Jing, you are back. Just in time. Help me. My dad is going to beat me to death. You are a scholar. Please help me. My dad will definitely listen to your words."
When Yun Dagui saw Yun Jing, his eyes immediately lit up and he ran towards him in a hurry, then hid behind Yun Jing, as if he was grasping at straws.
Yunjing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to Yun Xiaofu who was chasing him: "Third uncle, what are you doing? You are driving the whole village away for the nobles."
Yun Xiaofu came closer and saw his son hiding behind Yun Jing. Although he was holding a stick, he was afraid of hurting Yun Jing and could not do it, so he pointed at Yun Dagui with one hand on his hips and the other and glared: "Little..., Yun Jing
You're back again, don't worry about this, I'm going to beat this brat to death today!"
"Third uncle, what's the big deal? Look how angry you are." Yunjing asked curiously.
At this moment, Yun Dagui muttered behind Yun Jing: "Brother Jing, my father is unreasonable."
"Be reasonable? The stick in my hand is the truth!" Yun Xiaofu glared angrily, then looked at Yunjing and said: "Yunjing, this is what it is. I asked him to feed the chickens before.
As a result, the boy was not happy, so he killed one of them with a stick. Here, it is the stick in my hand. Tell me, can I not beat him? He knows how to lose his temper at such a young age. If he is older, it will be fine.
!”
Yun Jing was stunned after hearing this, and turned around to ask Yun Dagui: "Is this really true?"
"No, no, I didn't kill the chicken on purpose. I was holding the chaff to feed the chickens, and the big rooster came to snatch it. It was trying to tease me, so I swung it over with a stick. I didn't know it was so cruel.
After being beaten, he died instantly. My father thought I beat him to death on purpose. Brother Jing, do you think I was unjust or not?" Yun Dagui quickly shook his head and said.
"Really?" Yun Jing said in shock.
When questioning him, he said to himself that Big Rooster, one of the three tyrants in the countryside, would also suffer some day, and he would be dealt with by a young boy like Yun Dagui...
"Yeah, that's it." Yun Dagui nodded quickly.
Over there, Yun Xiaofu puffed his beard and glared: "Yunjing, don't listen to his nonsense. He was the one who beat him to death on purpose. He was not willing to do anything if he was asked to do it. Forget it, you are so lazy. What a sin, why did I get pregnant?"
You are such a son and so lazy. When I die, it will be up to you to see what you do with your shit. Go ahead and eat your shit."
"I really didn't mean it." Yun Dagui almost burst into tears.
Yun Jing was really dumbfounded at this moment. He first said to Yun Xiaofu: "Third uncle, please calm down. Let's take this matter seriously or not. Well, think optimistically, the chicken is still very fragrant when eaten.
Children are not sensible, so be patient and let it pass." Then he turned back to Yun Dagui and said, "Xiaogui, you too must listen to your father. If you see him getting so angry, he starts talking nonsense.
What should I do if I get angry?"
"But I really didn't mean it," Yun Dagui said with an aggrieved look.
He might be able to compete with his father, but not with Yunjing. The reason for this is because Yunjing is the only scholar in the village. Usually the adults talk about Yunjing and almost mythologize him.
, and as Yunjing gets older, his words are often more effective than the village chief. This is the current situation in the village.
Um, the village chief is Grandpa Yunjing. Well, the village chief’s words are more useful...
After such a torment, Yun Xiaofu's anger also dissipated a lot.
At this moment, a woman's voice came from a distance and shouted: "Master, master, please stop beating Dagui. The rooster is alive and alive again."
Yunjing: "..."
Yun Xiaofu: "..."
Yun Dagui: "..."
The speaker was Yun Dagui's mother, who was holding a big rooster from a distance.
Well, Yun Jing probably knew about it, and he guessed that Yun Dagui knocked the big rooster unconscious with a stick, and Yun Xiaofu mistakenly thought it was beaten to death.
Shrugging, Yun Jing smiled and said: "Okay, okay, Third Uncle, Dagui, it's okay, it's okay, go back."
Nodding, Yun Xiaofu opened his mouth, and finally glared at Yun Dagui and said, "Why are you still coercing? Come home with me!"
"Oh", Yun Dagui walked over with his neck shrinking, and was slapped on the butt by Yun Xiaofu. As a result, he ran away with a grin on his face.
Then Yun Xiaofu said embarrassedly to Yun Jing: "Well, Yun Jing, the third uncle will go back first."
"Okay, third uncle, don't fight Dagui when you go back," Yun Dingding nodded.
Yun Xiaofu turned around and took two steps. He turned back and asked Yunjing. He said, "Yunjing, you are a scholar. Tell me, when will this child make people worry-free?"
Regarding this question, Yunjing thought for a moment and answered seriously: "Uncle Third, I'm afraid you won't have to worry about children in this life. Let's put it this way, to be disrespectful, don't worry too much. It will be a few decades later."
, even if you die, Dagui still has to ask you to bless him when he visits your grave, why don't you worry?"
"this……"
After hearing what Yun Jing said, Yun Xiaofu was dumbfounded, but when he thought about it, it made sense...
