Take the farm down to earth

Chapter 68 Ling Peach Ripe
"Brother Pan, what are you?"

Jia Lian saw Xue Pan and the Commander coming out together, and seemed to be talking and laughing, so he cupped his hands at the other side in relief, "I have seen the Commander."

"Don't dare, a certain is just a fifth-rank military officer, how dare you call him an adult in front of Tongzhi."

In ancient times, commanders were regarded as officials rather than fixed positions. The commanders who defended the capital were directly the third grade.

But if the commanders of the prefectures and counties are either from the fifth rank or the seventh rank, and Jia Lian, who was bought with money, said so in front of the fifth rank fellow, it can only be said that the other party is in awe of Jia's mansion and is used to being cautious.

"Brother Pan, speaking of which, you and Commander Xue have the same surname, maybe you were still a family 500 years ago, and they sold you a good bow with one stone for 500 taels, so you don't need to come to the door again and again, right?"

Seeing that Feng Ziying obviously wanted to protect the commander, Jia Lian secretly thought that something was wrong, but Xue Pan was overjoyed when he heard that the other party was also surnamed Xue.

Grabbing Commander Xue's hand, he said, "Where is my brother's ancestral home? Maybe you are really distant relatives, otherwise how could you hit it off?"

Xue Jinping rolled his eyes suddenly in his heart, of course you hit it off right away, that's because you got a good bow worth at least 1500 taels of silver.

But I lost a lot, two bows equal to 2 taels of silver, in exchange for 500 taels and a scrapped stone bow.

But Xue Jinping is not stupid, he said with a smile, "Brother doesn't have the blessing to climb into Uncle Xue's house."

But after saying this, Xue Jinping still reported his hometown with a smile.

If you calculate carefully, let alone distant relatives, you can't beat them at all.

But Xue Pan's heart moved, and he dragged Xue Jinping to drink. Xue Jinping was not a fool, so he couldn't tell that this guy was thinking about his own good things.

But since there is a lack of waiting in Beijing, and he is only a fifth-rank military officer, it means that he has been squeezed out in the local area, and he has not even kept his official position, so he has to go to Beijing to look for opportunities.

But Xue Jinping really misunderstood Xue Pan this time.

In his heart, this guy really regarded Shi Zhongkui as his brother-in-law, even his elder brother.

Since Xue Jinping has martial arts skills and can take out good bows one after another, does that mean that his bow and arrow level is not low?
And now that he has an official but no job and is at home, he might as well teach Shi Zhongkui how to bow and arrow.

After drinking for three rounds, Jia Lian and others realized that Shi Zhongkui could break one crossbow and pull two crossbows to the full moon, and they felt that this person was more than others, and he was really maddened.

I have lived for dogs for so many years.

It was only then that Xue Jinping knew that the person behind Xue Pan was still a scholar, and even more so, a scholar who had successively won the county and government examinations.

I was so curious and envious of Shi Zhongkui in my heart.

As soon as Xue Pan said his purpose, Xue Jinping only took a few breaths before agreeing without hesitation.

After all, he is not blind. The group of honorable sons present here are not meritorious ministers whose ancestors have spent their entire lives in the army.

Not to mention that through their relationship, it is enough to make him a certain deficiency, even if he gambled on Shi Zhongkui, he would not wait an extra month.

If Shi Zhongkui passed both the college and township examinations, wait another half a year, and once he passes the general examination in February next year, he must be a Jinshi.

It was only about half a year before and after, and Xue Jinping felt that he was not at a disadvantage and could afford to gamble no matter what.

In this way, while Shi Zhongkui was studying, he also had a teacher in martial arts.

Although the cultivation of Changchun Kungfu is slow, after more than 8 months of practice, Shi Zhongkui has understood the benefits of this kung fu.

Not to mention prolonging life, the strengthening of physical fitness is not small.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to pull the two-stone strong bow, let alone pull it twenty times in a row, it's just that his hands are a little sore.

If it wasn't for wanting to shock the world, it would be no problem to pull another twenty times, and after the Changchun Kung Fu was activated, the soreness in the arms would gradually disappear after just a dozen breaths.

What Xue Jinping did was satisfied on the one hand, but on the other hand he was envious to death.

Even among elite archers, there are not many people who can pull their bow twenty times without shaking their arms, let alone a bow that can't even reach a stone, and Shi Zhongkui pulls a strong bow of two stones.

I even had the experience of shooting through a 10-meter target with one arrow.

Fortunately, Shi Zhongkui deliberately lowered his accuracy, otherwise Xue Jinping would be even more depressed.

But when it comes to satisfaction and admiration, there are only the military words that Shi Zhongkui occasionally pops out of his mouth, and as long as he stays in the farm, there will always be endless books on the art of war.

Xue Pan, Jia Lian, and Shi Guangzhu and Yu Tongfu's family who came for questioning, really want to borrow as many military arts as they want, or borrow them from their families.

So Xue Jinping spent most of his time in his room copying books and reading the art of war, except for accompanying Shi Zhongkui in the morning with the art of archery and horse fighting.

Unknowingly, more than a month has passed.

Shi Zhongkui, who was practicing cross-legged that night, was moved in his heart, put away his Changchun kung fu, and looked at the space farm with his mind, his face immediately became happy.

After waiting for more than three months, the peaches in the space finally ripened.

Calculating the time carefully, it seems to be exactly 1 days, and I am stuck on the fourth level of Qi training, and it has been more than 100 days.

Without further ado, a peach enters the mouth directly, and a wave of spiritual energy enters the abdomen, and when it is stuck in the realm of the fourth level of Qi training, it melts away easily like a snowflake encountering a dog day.

'It's done'. After a long time, Shi Zhongkui was pleasantly surprised to find that he was already on the fifth level of Qi training, and a peach entered again, and this time he broke through to the sixth level of Qi training.

But when he wanted to work harder and broke through to the seventh level of Qi training, he suddenly found that the aura in his dantian seemed to be a little unstable, and he instantly understood the truth that too much was too late.

He hurriedly stabilized his mind and began to adjust his breath.

But before that, he still remembered to collect the remaining 17 peaches first, so as not to affect the peach trees to bear fruit again.

As for why there was one missing, it was because he ate a peach when the peach tree absorbed the aura of the Heaven-Mending Divine Stone and began to transform into a spirit tree.

But as soon as the peaches were picked, Shi Zhongkui suddenly discovered that there were no longer 20 fruits on the peach tree, but 10.

This surprised Shi Zhongkui, and then he thought that a field in space only yielded 10 catties at a time. Does that mean that the spirit peaches he picked just now are not real spirit peaches?
After all, there must be a difference between 10 peaches of 1 catty and 20 peaches of about half a catty.

And there is no need to guess, since the total weight has not been reduced, it must be more effective for one catty.

Thinking of this, Shi Zhongkui was not angry but liked it, he wished for 10 catties each.

After one night of breathing adjustment, the dantian finally stabilized. When he practiced martial arts with Xue Jinping again in the morning, with a [-]-jin iron spear in his hand, he immediately felt like he was using his arms and fingers.

And when reading, thinking also changes faster.

People are successful in cultivation to subdue demons, and he seems to use cultivation as a halo gain, but Shi Zhongkui understands that if there is no benefit, a fool will have nothing to go to practice with demons.

Before you know it, it's the fifth day of August.
