Farming, learning Wu, and peace in the world

Chapter 9 Rainy Season

With the money from selling Youshangu, the Chi family suddenly stepped from a state of debt-ridden state to a debt-free state, and they still had 500 yuan left on hand.

Mother Chi couldn't help smiling every day.

Father Chi didn't need to get up and go to the field before dawn, just to dig more crops from the field.

However, the old couple still couldn't stay idle, so they hurried to plant lentils in all the fields that had been reclaimed in the back mountain before May.It's just that the lentils from Yamada failed to germinate in three days.

Fast forward to May.

The sky is gloomy, and the first rainy season seems to be coming.

Father Chi stood quietly beside the bamboo fence with a hoe on his shoulder, looking at the lentil seedlings that were already covered with racks in an acre of thin field, and his heart became more and more puzzled.

It took only half a month to plant an acre of lentils in Susukida.

It has climbed all over the shelf, ready to bloom and bear fruit, and the growth rate has increased by more than four or five times.

"dad."

Chi Qiaosong came back from the mountain with a pack of traditional Chinese medicine.

After he had 900 yuan in his pocket, he became more energetic and often wandered into the city to buy some delicious food and drink.The most commonly bought are Chinese herbal medicines, which are used to boil muscles and bones.

However, the 900 yuan was not spent much.

Because he can always hunt some wild game on a ridge and several surrounding hills, and take it to the city to exchange for money, which is enough to buy medicine for himself.It's just that there are spirit beasts like Youshangu, but I haven't encountered them again, so I can't make a fortune.

"Why is your land so fat? I didn't see anything last year." Father Chi said puzzled.

"There's something in my field." Ikehashi Matsu couldn't say clearly, and things like gold fingers should not be exposed to anyone, otherwise it would inevitably lead to trouble.

"Then you take good care of it."

"Well, when the lentils bloom and ripen, Dad, you can sell them in the city, maybe you can get a good price."

"Indeed, the quality of the lentils in this field is definitely not bad. Look at the lentil seedlings, they are so emerald green... Let me pick some old leaves."

"Why pick old leaves?" Ikehashi Song wondered.

"Dried and soaked in water, it can cool off the heat and detoxify. In the past, the old man was bitten by a snake when he went into the mountains, or he had boils, so he boiled lentil leaves and drank water."

Father Chi immediately put down his hoe and started picking leaves.

All the old leaves of lentil seedlings in an acre of Susukida were removed, and a large basket was picked.

Ikehashi-matsu was noncommittal about this. He only cared about the experience after harvesting the lentils and the fertilizer rewards, and was not very interested in the lentils themselves.Now he really wants to upgrade Yimu Susukida as soon as possible.

After upgrading, one more mu of Susukida will be created, and another spiritual root transformed from the root of internal energy will be grown.

The "Jiangyou Morning Post" reported the day before yesterday that although Marshal Zhu did not capture a single city in the Ou faction, he also captured three counties.

The lecture hall will also resume classes in the near future.

...

...

...

After waiting, another week passed, a drizzle covered a ridge, and when the rain stopped, all the lentils in the one-acre thin field bloomed with small purple flowers.

The industrious little bees are constantly busy on the flowers.

Jingle Bell.

The second uncle rode a half-new bicycle, came to the farmhouse, and shouted: "Xiaosong, Xiaosong, good news, the time for the resumption of the martial arts class has been fixed!"

"What time is it set?"

"NO.15, there is a notice posted at the entrance of the martial arts hall, and classes will resume on NO.15 this month."

Chi Qiaosong frowned: "We have to wait another week... Second Uncle came in to drink some water."

"No more, I have cold boiled water in the basket." After the second uncle notified the news, he pushed the cart and was about to leave. "I have to go to the next few villages to collect dry goods. In the evening, the second uncle will buy a catty of loose wine. Our uncle and nephew Have a drink or two."

The second uncle and second aunt finally chose a small business to sell dry goods.

In the rural areas of Mokan County, every household will dry some dry goods such as fungus, mushrooms, peanuts, peppers, etc., and the second uncle buys them and sends them to restaurants and restaurants in the county.

I deliberately spent 70 yuan to buy a semi-new [-] Dagang.

The second aunt simply processed the dry goods at home, and classified the dry goods by their appearance, so as to make more profits.

The second uncle came and went in style.

Ikehashi Matsu stood in front of the farmhouse door, staring intently at the acre of Susukida.

……

Susukida level one: one mu

Fertilizer library: one pack

This spiritual root (1): Laurel
Outer spirit root (0): None
Spirit crop: lentils
……

It has been a month of farming, relying on Susukida to swallow the essence of the world by itself, there is an extra bag of fertilizer in the warehouse.

It's a pity that I didn't learn new horizontal kung fu, and the fertilizer has nowhere to use.

He was wandering around the city before, and deliberately inquired about several martial arts gyms. There are many martial arts taught in the martial arts halls, but the fees are too expensive, and it costs hundreds of dollars to learn one.

And what you learn is still low-level work.

The real high-level kung fu can only be learned with money in the martial arts halls in big cities.The Guoshu Museum is similar to a university. The full name is "Guoshu Museum Sports Training Institute", which is exclusively for martial arts elites to practice.

In the entire Jiangyou Province, there are five martial arts museums.

Chaisang City, the capital of the province, has a provincial Guoshu Museum, which has been established for more than [-] years; Hongdu, on the other side of the Pengli Lake, also has a Provincial Guoshu Museum; in addition, there are three municipal Guoshu Museums, among which Fuliang City, the superior of Mokan County, There is one.

Zhu Dashuai established a lecture hall.

It is clearly stated that those who are outstanding in the lecture hall and those who are outstanding in the three realms of corporals will be able to enter the Fuliang City National Martial Arts Museum for further training, learn first-class martial arts, and delve into the three realms of masters.

Even Marshal Zhu sent his family's "Kui Dou Spear" to Fuliang City National Martial Arts Museum.

"Kui Dou Spear" is a master-level martial art. After deep cultivation, it is easy to advance to a master, and the marksmanship is so powerful that poking people and iron is like poking tofu.

Shake his head.

Ikehashi Matsu no longer thinks about what is there or what is not.

He glanced at the clear sky, the sun was scorching hot, he decisively put on the spirit tooth dagger, and then a long-handled machete, and explored the depths of a hurdle.

Ever since he hunted Youshangu, all he has been thinking about is to hunt another spirit beast and take an acre of Susukida to test the effect of fertilizing it.

Ordinary prey is usually used to chop up the fertilizer field experiment, and it is found that the fertilizer cannot be condensed.

Therefore.

Only to find spirit beasts.

If he couldn't find one hurdle, he went to the second and third hurdles, and even ran to other mountains and valleys dozens of miles away.

"I heard from the old man that there are not only wild boars in Qianli Cuilong Mausoleum, but also gray wolves, leopards, blind bears, and even tigers... It's been so many days, and I haven't even seen the third wild boar."

Five hours later.

Ikehashi Matsu returned to the farmhouse with a sigh.

The spiritual tooth dagger that You Shangu had polished from his fangs was not used.

Rumble!
The weather in the rainy season is changeable. One moment it was still red and the sky was shining, and the next moment it was already dark clouds.When he locked the door of the farmhouse and rushed home to have dinner, it was raining heavily.

"Fortunately, I came back early, otherwise I would be drowned." The second uncle took out the loose wine.

Chi's father and second uncle have a good relationship, so the two families basically eat together. Chi's mother and second aunt cook and wash dishes together, and the children also help each other.

Pour the wine.

The second uncle directly picked up the wine glass and raised it to Chi Qiaosong: "Come on, do it."

Chi's father did not object to Chi Qiaosong's drinking, but Chi's mother, who was serving the dishes, warned: "Let Xiaosong drink less, drinking is not good."

The second aunt poured the seasoning on the cold cucumber on the plate, and echoed: "I don't understand these men, they drink all day long, what's so good about this wine."

Chi's father and second uncle seemed to have never heard of it.

Chi Qiaowu was busy putting a chicken leg into the bowl, while Chi Xiaoya was sensible enough to feed his cousin Chi Qiaoshui. Two-year-old Chi Qiaodong lay down on the ground and counted ants.

Ikehashi Song smiled, feeling the warmth of home.
