Infinite Immortal Ship

Chapter 2
"Mom and dad, please come and persuade me!"

Listening to his eldest brother's shouting, Lu Yuantong couldn't help but cover his forehead. His eldest brother may not know that this title is a bit lethal to modern people.

And he never expected that his elder brother would have such a big reaction to the words "Life Qi Gong".

Soon, Lu Yuantong followed his elder brother to the front yard. Before he reached the main room, he smelled the aroma of millet porridge. At a glance, his second uncle was sitting in the main room, and his second mother and cousin were washing pots and serving porridge in the kitchen. .

People in this world usually only eat two meals a day. His second uncle goes to the countryside every morning to buy pigs. In order to maintain energy, he eats three meals a day like those rich squire.

As Lu Yuantong's second uncle, Lu Hongtie got up earlier than Lu Yansheng. After confirming that Lu Yuantong was fine, he went to feed the donkey.

"You're such a grown-up guy, don't just chirp when anything happens."

Lu Hongtie has the same thick eyebrows and big ears, but his face is thinner and his lips are slightly thinner. At this time, he is sitting at the table, holding a bowl of millet porridge in his left hand, and holding chopsticks in his right hand to pick up the pickles on the plate.
"Dad, I don't know what I'm thinking, but I want to practice Yuan Qi Gong." After Lu Yansheng sat on the stool obediently, his tone was still higher.

Lu Hongtie stirred a chopstick of pickles into the millet porridge and looked over with frowning: "Yuan Tong, you won't forget the lesson your uncle taught you back then, right?"

Seeing the diced bacon sinking in Er Bo's bowl, and the oil and pickles floating up, Lu Yuantong couldn't help but have a memory flash before his eyes.

After his uncle failed to activate his bloodline, he followed a group of people to practice Yuan Qi Gong. He practiced Yuan Qi Gong for six or seven years without any gains. Not only did he spend a lot of money, but he also wasted his youth.

If so many people hadn't been deceived, which attracted the attention of the government, I'm afraid his uncle would still be deceived!

Lu Yuantong let out a breath and couldn't help but feel troubled. It was a bit difficult to deal with his family's resistance to Yuan Qi Gong.

"Erlang, those liars are talking nicely about how to guide Yuan Qi into the body and control the movement of Yuan Qi... But these are abilities only possessed by those who are born with gods and spiritual roots!"

"Without spiritual thoughts, how can you sense and guide Yuan Qi? Without spiritual roots, how can you absorb and circulate Yuan Qi?"

Since his eldest brother suffered this scam, Lu Hongtie had a deep memory of it. At this time, his nephew was acting stupid, so he naturally wanted to give him a warning.

Feeling the strong tone of his second uncle, Lu Yuantong knew that if he spoke back, he would light the powder keg and simply remained silent.

He knew clearly in his heart that it would not be too late to prove it once he started to truly practice cultivation.

"As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer the consequences. My uncle can serve as a warning. Erlang, just listen to your father!"

At this time, cousin Lu Wansheng, who was wearing coarse clothes, came over carrying a bowl.

She inherited the advantages of her parents, with a round face and a pointed chin, a garlic-like nose under the eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and plump lips but not as wide as her mother's...

If Lu Wansheng hadn't been wearing coarse clothes, no one would have questioned whether he was the daughter of any family.

Lu Yuantong was stunned for a moment, then took the bowl of millet porridge from his cousin Lu Wansheng.

In the past few years, his second uncle has been very busy outside, while his second mother-in-law is worried about business at home, and the eldest brother is very busy learning to forge weapons. Only his attentive cousin spends the longest time with him.

At this time, Lu Yuantong suddenly noticed that his cousin was frowning and looking at him with a trace of doubt in her eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Yuantong's pupils couldn't help but tremble.

He almost forgot that he had just traveled through time. Although he had memories, it could not be exactly the same as before. Could it be that his cousin Lu Wansheng had discovered something different when he reacted like this?
Thinking of this, Lu Yuantong's heart tightened, and then he gritted his teeth.

For the current plan, in order to downplay his abnormality, we can only stir up conflicts and ignite the "powder keg".

Lu Yuantong put the bowl on the table and looked directly at Lu Hongtie.

"Second Uncle, the Yuan Qi Gong I am talking about is different from what you know. Ordinary people are not born with gods or spiritual roots, but we are living beings...cultivating the Yuan Qi Gong is to practice the life Yuan Qi. !”

Seeing that his cousin Lu Yansheng, cousin Lu Wansheng and the second mother in the kitchen all looked over, Lu Yuantong continued to explain:
"You don't need a panacea to practice Yuan Qi Gong. At most, you can eat more food, and it doesn't require a lot of time. If you can get started in a month, you can continue practicing. If you can't get started, you can give up."

Lu Yuantong entered the profession three months ago. With experience and the fact that this was an extraordinary world, he set such a standard.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Lu family fell silent for a while, while Lu Hongtie had an angry look on his face and snorted as he was about to scold him.

Lu Yansheng stood up in a hurry, preparing to save his second brother, but a figure was faster than him and held down Lu Hongtie's arm.

"Dad, don't get so angry... Since Erlang made it so clear, just believe him once. It will only take a month at most."

Lu Wansheng sighed inwardly, temporarily blaming Lu Yuantong's rebellion for what just happened.

She actually didn't believe it, but she knew that Lu Yuantong had a stubborn personality and was at a rebellious age. Instead of criticizing him, which would be counterproductive, it would be better to let him hit the wall.

When he realizes that it hurts, he will naturally stop having these unrealistic fantasies.

Seeing that Lu Hongtie suppressed his anger, Lu Yuantong picked up the bowl and put it into his mouth, preparing to go back to practice after eating.

At this time, a woman carrying a cloth bag came out of the kitchen. She had narrow eyebrows and narrow eyes, a square face and a wide mouth. She was Lu Yuantong's second mother.

The bulging paper bag smelled of fat and grain, and Lu Yuantong knew that it was fried brown sugar millet cakes prepared by his mother for his uncle to eat on the road.

The second mother put down the cloth bag, turned her head and glanced at Lu Yuantong, and then said meaningfully: "Although Erlang failed the exam, he has completed his studies. I wonder if he plans to stay in the pork shop to work as a handyman, or find a job in the county? "

After hearing this, everyone reacted. After Lu Yuantong failed the exam and did not activate his bloodline, it was time to think about making a living.It's just that Lu Yuantong just said that he wanted to try the so-called Yuan Qi Gong. The woman still said this after hearing it, which made it clear that she didn't believe it. She didn't take the so-called one month to heart at all.

The woman's words had a hidden meaning. Since their obligations as elders had been completed, it was unrealistic for Lu Yuantong to continue to eat and drink for free.

She also gave Lu Yuantong two options, either working as a busboy in a pork shop or making a living on his own.

Lu Yuantong felt very calm. In the past, it could be said that he stayed here for his studies. Now that he has graduated, it is time to be self-reliant.

When he was at Blue Star, he happened to encounter a craze for graduates. Various platforms were saying that the employment rate was grim, creating a huge sense of crisis and virtually putting a lot of pressure on him. He didn't even have time to rest and play after graduation. , I went to the company where I had interned before.

And now, he has reached the time of self-reliance. If possible, he still wants to give himself a month. This month is not for rest or fun, but to prove himself.

"Er Niang, why don't I stay at home for a month first? If there is work, I will do it. If there is no work, I will practice..."

The realm of refining is to refine the two qi of yin and yang in the body's essence into essence. There are only so many essences produced every day, and refining them does not take long.

After hearing this, Lu Hongtie nodded slightly. With this month's time as a buffer, he could not only make Erlang realize the falseness of Yuan Qigong, but also find some connections to find Erlang a job.

The woman slowly sat down on the stool, but there was a troubled look on her face.

"Erlang, the shop has always been run by the male outside and the female inside. With me and your sister at home, it can still run smoothly. If you want to work in the shop, you will have to go to the countryside with your second uncle to buy pigs."

In the past, when their children were still young, the couple would leave the city in the dark in the middle of the night so that they could return to do business at noon.

When Lu Yan grew up, the father and son left early in the morning and came home late, leaving her at home to take care of the shop. This started the pattern of the male taking charge of the outside and the female taking charge of the inside.

Now that Erlang has reached the stage of making a living, he can just take Dalang's place, and Dalang can have more time to practice with the blacksmith master.

Unexpectedly, Erlang said that he was going to practice Yuan Qi Kung, which made her plan come to nothing. She was originally dissatisfied with Erlang, who was fostering him at home, and now she didn't give him a good look.

Seeing the toughness in his wife's eyes, Lu Hongtie sighed first, and then said:

"The prince is the same age as you, and the Marquis has made a good marriage for him this year. Erlang, your parents are gone, and we elders will try our best to help you. But you have to be hardworking, and those from a well-off family can get married first. If you want to establish a career, you must first establish a career and then start a family.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt something. The eldest man, Lu Yansheng, is already 20 years old today. In addition to helping the family, he also has to learn crafts from the blacksmith master. Even if someone comes to matchmaker, they will not consider it. Although Erlang is only 15 years old, It’s time to start preparing for this too.

Seeing that Erlang was silent and seemed to have listened, Lu Hongtie straightened his expression and said:
"Erlang, if you are willing to take over the pork shop, I will teach you how to do this business immediately; if you want to find an easy job in the county, I can also go out of my way to find some connections for you... I am afraid that you will not do your job properly. I’m sorry for your lost parents.”

There was silence in the air, and Lu Yuantong felt numb all over.

Uncontrollably, a surge of sadness and self-blame surged in his heart. From becoming an orphan to failing the exam not long ago, scenes of memories appeared in his mind, which could make people shut down directly.

... Even though I am not him, I still feel so much. How much pressure must he feel after he fails!

After calming down, looking at everyone's reactions, Lu Yuantong inspired fighting spirit in his heart.

Just like in the previous life, before the rise of every new industry, those who get involved will be regarded as not doing their job properly. Internet, games, short videos, live broadcasts, virtual technology... there are countless people. When the public realizes the value of those industries, those who get involved first will People have already made a lot of money.

Under the current situation, he cannot openly act against his family, but there is no solution.

"Second uncle, second mother, brother and sister, now that it's time for me to start a business, it's time to put my fantastic ideas into practice. I choose to return to my hometown to farm!"

In the last life, the word farmer may have gradually changed its meaning with the development of science and technology, but in this world, the status of farmers is even higher than that of businessmen.

Of course, landless farmers could only be counted as landowners or tenants.Only farmers who have their own land can have a certain social status.

They also have another title, that is, landlords.

As expected, after listening to Lu Yuantong's words, no one had any intention of blaming or looking down upon him, and some were just shocked.

Only Lu Hongtie said as if he hated iron for not becoming steel: "Erlang, Erlang, you have been studying for nine years. If you don't find an easy job in the county, why do you think of going back to your hometown to farm!"

Although the errands in the county are not very expensive, they are also leisurely enough.

Although the pork shop is running around, it can also improve life and the benefits are sufficient.

Farming is not only exposed to wind and sun, but also physically and mentally tiring. You also have to look at the weather for food. Even if the weather is good, you have to beware of pests and diseases.

"Second uncle, who said you can't farm if you study? In addition to the classics and history, I have also read a lot of agricultural books in recent years, and I have already learned about agricultural production!"

Having said this, Lu Yuantong couldn't help but puff up his chest. Because this world has extraordinary power, many difficulties are either overcome by oneself or asked to be solved by God. There is not much development at all. With his understanding of agricultural scientific production concepts, he is ahead of the world. How many generations.

It is now mid-April, and there is still more than a month before the wheat harvest. This period of time can be used for his cultivation, and it is also the beginning of his practice of this new avenue of cultivation.

As for farming, although it is just a temporary measure for him, after he returns to his hometown, he will practice it with scientific thinking.

It can be regarded as giving the world a little surprise.
