Chapter 4
"Uh-ha-"

Yawning and stretching, Li Heng woke up from the old elm bed in his hometown that had at least decades of working experience.

A night without dreams, quiet and fulfilling, Li Heng couldn't imagine that he could still have such a quality of sleep. On the contrary, the imaginary bed adaptation did not appear at all.

Maybe home is home. Even if you haven’t returned for many years, the familiarity and sense of security are still there.

Looking at his phone, it was only a little after 07:30, not even eight o'clock. He thought that he would at least have to stay in bed all morning on such a day when he didn't go to work.

But at the moment, he is full of energy and can't stay in bed anymore. It seems that if he goes to bed early, he really wakes up early.

The best resting period for the human body is linked to the biological cycle. It is not enough to sleep for seven or eight hours. The effect of sleeping at ten o'clock is completely different from sleeping in the morning.

"It's probably related to the working cycle of the brain and internal organs. Later, I have to pick up human biology and learn it again..."

After opening this [Turning Mortal to Saint] panel, Li Heng couldn't help but have the motivation to delve into the mysteries of the human body.

Turning over and getting out of bed, Li Heng's most urgent task is to cook food!
He didn't prepare breakfast for himself, so when he got up, he went to the village to buy some breakfast.

In the past, there was no place to sell breakfast in the village. There is no habit of eating breakfast in this kind of countryside. Every household cooks breakfast by themselves.

Paying for breakfast is a luxury.

However, the villages and towns have developed in recent years, and these remote villages have also benefited somewhat. In addition, the concrete road in the town has been repaired and passes through the village entrance. Although it does not go directly into the village, it still drives some traffic. , so there is also a small shop and breakfast business at the entrance of the village.

Two vegetarian buns, two meat buns, and a small piece of glutinous rice cake. There is no need for porridge and soy milk. Li Heng boiled water to drink by himself.

After paying for breakfast with a certain treasure, Li Heng couldn't help but sigh that even in such a remote mountain village, the villagers who didn't even go to school now know how to pay electronically. Mobile payment is fully popularized.

"In the future, I will have to cook by myself, but the nearest market is two or three miles away."

There are too many rhythms of ordering takeaway or dine-in at fast food restaurants in the city, and I am not used to the days when I have to cook three meals a day.

Perhaps this can be regarded as an alternative back to basics.

Industrialization and urbanization bring convenience, efficiency and civilization, but it also allows human beings to enter this step-by-step assembly line life. The countryside has a relatively primitive and slow rhythm, but everything has to be done by yourself, which also consumes mental energy.

Life is made up of choices, and choices lead to different lives.

After breakfast, it was just around eight o'clock, and the rising sun in the east illuminated the red clouds, which were full of auspicious colors. It had been a long time since Li Heng went to appreciate the sunrise.

It is obvious that no matter where it is, it is the same sun, but at this moment, it seems that there is a different scene.

"Keep cleaning up!"

Li Heng is quite motivated at the moment, instead of taking out his mobile phone to look at the work group, OA software process, and various APP push information after eating like he usually does on vacation, he continued his unfinished work yesterday.

On the one hand, he only cleaned up the main house and bedroom yesterday so that he could live in it. Others such as the kitchen, courtyard, and side rooms were not cleaned.

The second is that yesterday's cleaning increased his stamina a little bit in addition to the afternoon, which made him taste the sweetness. Today he wants to continue to increase his points through labor.

Originally, there were only a few brick houses here, and the small building on the second floor was built by his parents when they were still alive. They both passed away not long after the construction was completed. With that inheritance, Li Heng finished college and went to work in Donghai City. I seldom come back after that.

Yesterday, I spent all afternoon cleaning up the main room, the master bedroom and other places, and now there is still a side room, the rooms on the second floor and the yard that have not been cleaned up.

After working all morning, I finally cleaned up the second floor. Many moldy and dusty sundries in the past were put under the sun for disinfection. It was almost noon.

"Huh? Why hasn't it changed this time?"

Checking the panel, the item of physical fitness was still 81, the same as last night, but he felt that his workload was about the same as yesterday afternoon.

Li Heng felt a little puzzled, and at the same time felt a little depressed. This is also human nature, because the expected harvest has not been obtained.

But he is not in a hurry, it is still early to take his time.

He took out all the fast food brought back from the rented house and heated it up, and then finished the lunch. This was also a disguised inventory clearance, and he would have to buy vegetables and cook by himself later.

After a brief lunch break, he continued to deal with the unfinished cleaning work. After cleaning the house, it was his own small courtyard. The emerald green wormwood grew luxuriantly on the cracked ground, reaching half a person's height to his waist. By the courtyard wall Covered with dark green moss.

When people enter these vegetation, they will retreat, and when people leave these vegetation, they will settle in. This is the relationship between man and nature.

All things are fighting for water, land, and sunlight, just like people are fighting for fame, power, and money. In fact, they are all fighting for survival.

The so-called harmonious coexistence is actually just a beautiful imagination.

It's as if Li Heng's shovel went down to poke the roots of the tallest wormwood. Originally, it was the tallest shrub in the yard, and could enjoy the most moisture from the rain and energy from the sun. Grow bigger and surpass other weeds around, occupying the best resources and land for a long time.

But just because of the appearance of Li Heng, an existence that is completely extraterrestrial to these grasses and trees, completely cut off this possibility.

Of course, other weeds will soon have the same fate. All of them will be cut up and thrown out of the courtyard wall to die in the sun, and finally become fertilizer or firewood in the stove. "All beings are equal".

In the final analysis, they still haven't been able to fight. If their root system is stronger and their stems are thicker, just like the small trees outside, then it will be difficult for Li Heng to shake them, at least temporarily with the small shovel in his hand. shake.

But fortunately, they are just plants, just a group of unthinkable vegetation. Human beings should be thankful for this.

"call--"

"These weeds are really not easy to mess up and grow all over the place, with their roots extending into the cracks in the bricks. After weeding, we have to buy herbicides to spray them again."

After resting his feet three times in a row in the afternoon, Li Heng tidied up the "primitive" grassland and felt like returning to his own courtyard.

"Eh? The value has changed!"

Just when he was resting with a wooden shovel, he suddenly noticed that his physique had become 82, and he had increased a little.

Li Heng felt a burst of excitement in his heart, but soon calmed down again.

"This time the increase is much slower than yesterday. I only increased a little after a full day of work today. It is comparable to yesterday afternoon. There must be a reason for this change."

He quietly pondered the reason for this in place, looking at the setting sun slanting to the west, thinking about the possible reasons.
