The Book of Heaven

Chapter 132 Choice
You can't see you when you turn around in the mountains, and you stay where you are in the snow.

These words really fit Zhao Shuying's mood at the moment, the only discrepancy was that Ma Zheng slipped away without leaving even a trace.

With Zhao Shuying's ability, as long as there are traces of horseshoes, Ma Zheng will never be allowed to escape.

"I don't believe you won't come!"

The helpless Zhao Shuying could only comfort herself with an old saying, if you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple.

Ma Zheng actually had the same idea, but the hut in the forest was indeed not the temple of the third uncle, it could only be regarded as a stronghold at most.

Ma Zheng already knew that the third uncle probably didn't come back recently, just because Bai Xue had already completely covered the wooden house, if someone lived here recently, no matter how lazy he would be, he wouldn't even want the door.

"There is really no one."

The snow blocking the gate has accumulated a few days of heavy snow, and the inside has already been frozen into solid ice. Ordinary people are afraid to smash their fists and don't even think about it. Ma Zheng also took a lot of effort to put the thick The wooden door opened.

There is no one in the forest, so the door does not need to be locked.

After opening the door, there was an unavoidable musty smell, Ma Zheng hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, then rushed into the room and opened all the windows for air.

When the air in the room could be breathed, an incense stick of time had passed, Ma Zheng was not idle during this time, while doing basic cleaning work, of course, he casually searched the entire wooden house.

Obviously there is no gain, and it is impossible to gain anything. The third uncle is an old fox, and it is difficult to catch him easily.

As time passed, it was impossible for Ma Zheng to return to Majiabao today. He found the oil lamp and lit it, grabbed the iron bamboo stick and went out to prepare today's dinner.

The freezing weather does not mean that all things are extinct. As long as they are experienced people, it is often easy to find food.

The plump pine tree is hidden in the tree hole. If you can find the entrance and exit, you can easily catch hares and frozen snakes by digging three feet.

As for the blind bear hiding in the big tree hole, it's not that Ma Zheng can't afford to mess with it, it's just that there's no need for it. You can't kill one just to stew a paw, right?

Sometimes Ma Zheng likes this kind of silence.

The blazing fire in the hearth and the boiling soup in the cauldron, although not delicious, have an indescribable warmth.There is no one to disturb him, so he can daydream, think about the past and present, or think about the past and present, in short, Ma Zheng enjoys this moment of tranquility very much.

Walking too fast is easy to get caught. If a person is always on the road, one day he will find that he has overlooked too many scenery along the way.

Stop and go, or even take time to look at the road, this is the real talent.

Turn the fire into the room, and the fire will heat the thick wood on the four walls, warming the whole room, and even the snow on the roof was blown by the heat, and began to patter along the eaves.

There was no one else around, and Ma Zheng didn't need to pretend to be asleep. He sat cross-legged on the bed, his body was practicing, but his eyes were wide open, obviously thinking.

Since the third uncle is not here, and it seems that he hasn't come back for a long time, should he wait for a few days, or return to Majiapu early tomorrow morning?
The order Ma Daoming gave him was only to send Ying Gu back, and there was no arrangement for what to do next.

So at least during Ma Daoming's return, Ma Zheng can arrange himself. Hard training in martial arts is certainly a way, but after the self-assessment last night, Ma Zheng felt that relying on hard training is not scientific.

Chalcedony, or other genius treasures, can greatly shorten Ma Zheng's hard training time.

Whether it's Zhao Shuying or Huang Zha, they have the skills they have today. Apart from their superb skills, they probably also need the support of these geniuses and treasures.

This is also the advantage of the small population. Ma Detu is not as good as Zhao Shuying and Huang Che in terms of kung fu. Of course, it may be because of his understanding, but the lack of resources is also an important problem that the Ma family's children need to face.

The Ma family took guarding the borders of the empire as their mission, and sacrificed a lot. In order to prevent problems in the inheritance of the family's incense, the Ma family also attached great importance to childbirth.Marrying a wife early and having children early is an important strategy of the Ma family. Don't look at Ma Deyuan happily taking Ma Zheng to drink some flower wine. It was only later that Ma Zheng found out that Ma Deyuan had already married a wife, and his main wife was a minister in the court. The girl from the family is three years older than Ma Deyuan.

Female junior, hold a gold brick.The Ma family doesn't care about the age of their daughter-in-law, the key is whether they can bear children. Ma Deyuan's daughter-in-law is also up to the task, and she gave birth to two boys within three years after entering the family, and now she can speak up even in front of Ma Daogong.

It's easy to fight if you have too many children, but it's the truth.However, given a certain amount of resources, the more people there are, the less will be allocated to each person.

In such a situation where Ma Deyuan didn't get much money and Ma Detu couldn't get enough to eat, Ma Zheng, a mere godson, basically didn't have to expect the Ma family to use resources on him.

After much deliberation, Ma Zheng didn't find many paths for himself.

Either it is fighting for favor, as long as it can win the favor of the elders, even if it leaks through the fingers, there will always be some leakage.

The second is to reflect his own importance. If Ma Zheng is of great importance to the entire Ma family, resources will continue to flow.

The third method is relatively simple in idea, but it is more troublesome to implement. The central idea is only one, buy!Although some resources cannot be exchanged for money, Ma Zheng believes that most things in this world still have a price.The biggest problem with this road lies in the two words "capital".

The last method is also the method Ma Zheng doesn't want to use the most, grab it!

Stepping into the rivers and lakes as soon as possible is like a lone wolf walking in the mountains, rushing wherever there is meat. This method has the fastest effect, but of course the risk is also the highest.

As strong as Zhao Shuying, he suffered a lot in the hands of Ma Yunhong, and Ma Zheng was still several levels behind Zhao Shuying.

Of course, if one is lucky enough, while looting resources to strengthen oneself, it is also a way of cultivating martial arts through fighting. As long as Ma Zheng doesn't die, he might soon grow into a monstrosity comparable to Zhao Shuying.

There are many roads, but none of them are easy. Just one night is not enough for Ma Zheng to make a decision.

Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of entering the wrong line of work. Ma Zheng knows that although there are many roads ahead of him, if he takes one wrong step, he may be lost forever.

In the third uncle's hut in the forest, Ma Zheng stayed for three full days, but in the end he couldn't wait for the third uncle, but he waited for an unexpected person.

The suddenly cloudy weather stopped Ma Zheng from returning to Jiazibao. On the third day, Ma Zheng couldn't stay any longer, and when he planned to return in the snow, he opened the door and saw a white dress.

Although people are in the wind and snow, the flying snowflakes cannot contaminate the clothes, and they bounce off or slide off as if hitting an invisible barrier a few inches away from the clothes.

Zhao Shu's image was a human-shaped hollow in the snow curtain, which made Ma Zheng dazzled.

"This is your lair?"

"No, come in."

Zhao Shuying spoke, breaking the tranquility, Ma Zheng took a step back helplessly, and welcomed Zhao Shuying into the wooden house.

Without asking any more questions, Ma Zheng knew that Zhao Shuying would speak for himself.
