He Zhao looked at the backs of Liu Jiao and others and rolled his eyes. You bastards, all of you are waiting for me. Don't look at the smiles now, you may cry in the future.
Everyone saw that there was no excitement, and when it was time to eat, they dispersed like birds and beasts. There was no intention of stepping forward to comfort Old Man Wang. Having said that, I really can't blame the villagers for being so indifferent.
Who told their third child to be a bad gambler?
Everyone in Qingshan Village asked around, but no one knew clearly that the gambling stall opened by the village bully was a big pit. In recent years, countless "heroes" fell into disgrace and lost everything.
Even if some people have itchy hands and can't help it, they will take the trouble to go to the gambling houses in Sichun City to play.
King dog, if you don’t learn a lesson, you deserve it!
"Go buy food."
After saying that, he walked towards the grain store.
After a while, he stood in front of the shop that was about to close.
Zhang Sizheng was fiddling with the abacus, and he knew without thinking that he was settling accounts.
"Old Zhang, here are two taels of corn."
"?!"
Shopkeeper Zhang was so frightened that he almost threw out the abacus in his hand.
"Hey, you, you idiot, almost scared me to death." After saying that, he patted his chest seriously and took a deep breath. "You, you, you have really made a fortune recently? In your hands, you actually got a lot of money.
I can take out two taels of silver!"
"Stop talking nonsense, the rice is waiting for the rice in the pot at home." He was not in the mood for small talk, and his chest was pressed against his back with hunger. If he delayed for a while, he would be eaten raw.
"Hey, it's not easy for us to meet each other. It's hard to come to the shop to buy rice. Why don't we just exchange a few words?" said the man surnamed Zhang while holding a bucket of rice.
"When you came here, did you know who was shouting just now? When I heard the voice, it sounded a bit sad!"
In response to Zhang Laosi's inquiry, he curled his lips and said.
"Curious? Why don't you go out and take a look?"
"If I go, who will look after the grain store? Besides, the only reason why I, Lao Zhang, can live safely in Qingshan Village is because of these four words, it's none of my business!!"
""
Don't say it, it makes sense!
Human, eight words.
It's none of my business, it's none of your business.
"Old man Wang, the third son of his family was not up to par, and was playing money at Liu Jiao's gambling stall. He lost more than ten taels of silver, and when the time limit came, the money was not paid back. So, the man surnamed Liu led the people and took Wang Gou directly from
He was dragged out of his home."
"A beating?"
Shopkeeper Zhang interjected, saying that although he didn't dare to interfere in the matter, it would be no problem if he asked a few more questions.
"One beating can save me from a debt of more than ten taels of silver. I am willing to be beaten every day." As he finished speaking, he lamented that he had fallen. For the sake of more than ten taels of silver, he would rather be beaten.
Damn it, if this kind of thing really happens, what's the difference between me and some people who are out to sell it?
"That's not right. Liu Jiao has changed his temper. In the past, people who didn't pay back money were punished severely. Today, the sun is rising in the west?"
"Haha, I don't care where the sun comes out. I only know that Liu Jiao made an agreement with the Madam of Chunhua House half a month ago to send a male prostitute. They and their group are already walking on the road to Sichun City."
"hiss"
Shopkeeper Zhang, who had lived for more than forty years, took a breath of air when he heard this.
It's better to kill him with one knife!
At least it would be a happy death. It would be hard to die even if you were sold into a brothel and worked as a male prostitute.
"Fortunately, I, Lao Zhang, don't like gambling, otherwise no matter how big the family fortune is, it will still be ruined."
After finishing speaking, stop what you are doing.
"Ninety-three kilograms, and the extra two taels of corn are your reward for relieving my boredom."
"Thank you."
He Zhao clasped his hands and thanked him, then took the rice bag containing ninety-three kilograms of grain, put it on his shoulder and walked towards home.
Zhang Laosi looked at his back, touched the goatee on his chin, and murmured to himself.
"It looks like I'm a little stronger than before?" I always feel that I have overlooked something, but I can't remember it. "Forget it, forget it. Even if it is different from before, my appetite is still amazing."
What the shopkeeper ignored was that the thin son of a herbalist could easily carry ninety-three kilograms of corn. Some adults might not be able to carry it as smoothly as he did.
Returning home, I can’t wait to cook rice.
After careful consideration, he poured twenty-three pounds of corn into the pot.
Add wood to the fire!
Before dark, the fragrance overflows.
Open the lid of the pot with one hand and scoop out with a spoon in your hand.
One bite, two bites, three bites
Hot mouth?
You have to eat it even if it’s hot!
In a moment, twenty-three kilograms of rice and rice were all eaten.
"belch"
He was lying on the shabby bed, with two words of contentment on his face.
There is nothing in the world that makes you feel more happy than having a full meal.
"read!"
Light the lamp and brush up your proficiency.
[Proficiency +1]
[Proficiency +1]
【】
At about midnight or early in the morning, he invited the copper basin out again.
After preparing the stone-splitting liquid, blow out the lights and go to sleep.
[Proficiency: 30 (rough)]
As the sky brightened, he stood up sleepily, walked to the table and stretched out his hand.
"hiss!!"
The strong corrosive and stinging sensation made him wake up immediately.
After ten minutes, the liquid turned white.
[Stone Splitting Hand: 20%]
Open the window and splash water.
"Clang!"
The poor copper basin returned to its familiar corner.
"Pah, pah, pah, pah"
"If I could only soak once a day, I would have reached 100% progress in one breath in the past few days." The man named He complained, completely unaware of the rogue outside who was watching him, and was puzzled.
They were very confused as to whose little widow she was. Once a day, for half an hour at a time. No matter how good and thirsty the land is, can it withstand the diligent plowing of young calves?
"Bang!"
Throw away the stone and let it keep company with the copper basin.
Cook in a pot!
70 pounds of corn-10.
In the thatched house, the famous ruthless man, who was well fed and drunk, picked up his medicine hoe and went out, intending to gain some proficiency at the proficiency level.
For about half an hour, he looked at the wild vegetables in his backpack and fell into deep thought.
Without him, it weighs fifty or sixty pounds and cannot provide any proficiency.
"Is it possible that the level of "Herbal Gathering" is too high, so it won't work if I dig wild vegetables again?"
After pondering all the way home, he tried "Monkey Walk" again.
After practicing it once, there is no prompt to increase proficiency by 1.
Two trips, three trips, four trips
It was not until the fifth time that [He who helps himself, God will help him] finally responded.
[Would you like to save 1 point of proficiency (proficiency)? 】
【whether】
"no."
["Monkey Steps" (disabled) (skilled): 1/500, the wild monkeys were playing in the subjective mountains of Liuhemen, and I suddenly realized that the general outline came into being. Then, I created a flexible and maneuverable body technique. (Note:)]
"Five times before giving a little?"
"The Eight Forms of Diamond, it won't be the same!"
As he finished speaking, his right eyelid was beating wildly and he punched it five times in a row.
From here we can see someone's progress in physical strength.
In the past, just one punch would consume most of my physical strength. Now, after five punches in a row, my face is not red and I am not out of breath.
[Would you like to save 1 point of proficiency (proficiency)? 】
【whether】
"no."
["Eight Forms of Diamond" (Disabled) (Proficient): 1/500, the master of a sect uses his own martial arts, plus the Sanshou secretly learned when facing enemies, and the eight self-created eight forms are strong and violent.
Fierce techniques. The eight postures include eight fatal moves: fist, palm, foot, grasp, finger, elbow, throw, and step. (Note:)]
Good guy, he called him a good guy!
"It doesn't take much time each time, but it consumes too much physical strength. The remaining seventy kilograms of grain may only be enough for one day."
It's not that he doesn't want to work hard and practice hard, it's just that his financial conditions don't allow it.
"There is only one way left, go up the mountain to collect herbs!"
Thinking of this, he hid all the medicinal materials needed to crack the stone hand.
Carrying a basket on his back and a medicinal hoe, he went out to collect herbs.
"I hope it's not too outrageous."
Around nine o'clock in the morning, we successfully entered the mountains.
As soon as I entered the mountain, I found a herb.
"Nepenthes?"
"I remember that the "Book of Herbal Medicine" written by the dead ghost said that it needs to be sprayed with clean water until the pitcher plant closes. It must be completely dug out within a quarter of an hour. If the rhizome is damaged during this period, the medicinal properties will be greatly lost."
He took out the water bottle in his backpack, took a sip and sprayed it on the herbs.
"puff"
Clear water fell on the grass, and the cage-like grass blades closed instantly.
The next moment, he immediately stuck out his butt and picked carefully.
Twelve or three minutes later, He Zhao sat down on the ground and took a deep breath.
"call"
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and threw it into the backpack.
The second strain, the third strain, the fourth strain
When reaching the fifth plant, a new information prompt suddenly popped up in the upper left corner of the line of sight.
[Would you like to save 1 point of proficiency (proficiency)? 】
【whether】
"yes."
[Proficiency: 30 (rough), 1 (proficient)]
"Five plants and a little?"
"No, no, that's not right. In [He who helps himself, God will help him], there is a description: The time required for any cultivation method and skill is reduced by half. So, normally, you should dig ten herbs, or practice ten times
The steps and boxing techniques can only add a little bit of proficiency to the proficiency level."
"It's so hard for me."
After taking a sip of cold water, a wry smile appeared on his lips.
If you want to complete "Monkey Steps" (remaining) and "Eight Forms of Diamond" (remaining) in one go, you need to dig out five thousand herbs. Calculated at ten minutes for each plant, it takes more than thirty-four days.
Little by little.
Note that you are digging non-stop twenty-four hours a day. During this period, you cannot eat, drink, sleep, or go to the toilet. Even the speed must be maintained at one plant every ten minutes.
Moreover, the herbs in the mountains should also be strong, and you should be lucky enough to find the next one after digging one.
Is this something humans can achieve?
No wonder, once his "Herbal Picking" ability reached the proficient level, he only felt that he was a little behind the dead ghost dad.
"Too slow!"
go back?
He has come here, but if he cannot return with a full load, it would be a loss of blood for him.
dig!
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, he looked up at the sky.
"It's time to return to the village."
[Proficiency: 30 (rough), 10 (proficient)]
It took almost seven hours, three and a half hours, and only 10 points of proficiency were gained.
If it’s 10 o’clock every day, it will last 100 days!
"No, I have to think of a way to speed up the acquisition of proficiency."
Although it was just over three months ago, I was able to master two kung fu skills to the full proficiency level in one go. Compared with the speed of normal people's cultivation, it may be extremely fast!
However, he felt slow and insecure.
Along the way, he was stunned but he didn't know how to operate it.
"Alas, am I, a genius with bugs, finally defeated by a despicable simulator?"
"who?!"
A loud shout awakened He Zhao from his thoughts.
"Whoosh"
"puff!!"
An arrow shot at his feet, but he was stunned and didn't react.
Fast, too fast.
The arrow missed and whistled through the air, and his eyes blurred. There was an arrow in front of him, with its tail feathers trembling continuously.
The arrow was three-thirds into the soil, and the entire arrowhead was completely submerged in the hard soil.
If you were in flesh and blood, you can imagine how tragic it would be, and I am afraid that you would immediately report it below.
"Don't get excited, I'm a medicine man!"
He immediately shouted loudly to indicate that he was not a threat.
"簌猌"
There was a sound of scraping branches and leaves, and he was keenly aware that it was mixed with the sound of footsteps.
The next moment, the weeds were pushed aside.
Several men in fancy clothes emerged from inside holding swords and bows.
Two strong men led a shorter young man.
"Tiger?"
"Brother Zhao!"
When he was young, he knew his childhood friend, Tang Hu, the son of Orion.
"It turns out he's a child of the Lao He family. Yu Ling, you boy, be careful in the future. Don't just shoot the arrow out without caring if there is any trouble. What if you kill someone?"
Tang Hu's biological father, Tang Yuankui, said to the man beside him, who was about thirty years old.
The hunter named Yu Ling scratched his head and looked embarrassed, muttering in a low voice.
"I'm sure I won't hit anyone. I'm the second best shooter in the village."
"What did you say?"
"Ah! You didn't say anything, I will remember it."
Tang Yuankui is the captain of Qingshan Village's hunting team. He is old and capable, and no one refuses to accept him.
Not to mention a few words of reprimand, even if you spray the other party with a bloody blow, you still have to suffer.
"Huzi, have you joined the hunting team?"
"Well, Brother Zhao. My father said that I have almost finished my training. What I need now is actual combat. After an old hunter takes me for three to five years and understands the things in the mountains and woods, I can go out and find an old hunter to hunt with me.
Already."
Tang Hu knew everything and happily told his former friends about his current situation.
He said that to start hunting, you need to find a partner to go hunting in the mountains together. This is a rule passed down from generation to generation by the hunters in Qingshan Village. If you want to go hunting in the mountains, you must find an old hunter.
Because no one knows what kind of bad situation you will encounter if you go up the mountain alone. There is someone by your side who can take care of each other.
If you encounter a difficult situation, you might be able to save a life.
"Have you just entered the mountains?"
"How is it possible? We came here in the morning. I heard Zhao Da tell the truth that he found the footprints of the giant insect when he was collecting medicine. So, my father found a group of people and prepared to kill the giant insect."
He Zhao nodded after hearing this.
A big insect, tiger skin, tiger meat, tiger bones, tiger teeth, tiger claws, tiger blood, tiger gall, and tiger kidney can be sold for at least five or six hundred taels of silver.
It would be strange if the hunters turned a blind eye to such a rare thing.
"Wait a minute, you just said exercise?"
A group of people from Sichuan City seems to have said this.
【Since Dabai entered the outer courtyard, I have been exercising my body.】
